Perhaps you are like one of many educators who become anxious or tentative tackling the subject of sex. Perhaps you are overwhelmed with where to start or unsure about when to have "the talk." Though it is a challenge, you must realize that if you continue to allow anxiety and hesitancy to silence your guidance, you will forfeit your right as counselor to mentors of ulterior motives.

Why we can't wait to see ''King Kong''
RELEASE DATE Dec. 14
WHY WE CAN'T WAIT The film that Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson has waited all his life to make is, without a doubt, this season's 8 zillion-pound gorilla.
THE PREMISE You know the story: Ape meets girl (Naomi Watts, in the Fay Wray role of Ann Darrow); girl brings ape back to the big city; ape dies falling off the Empire State Building.
SOURCE The 1933 film written by Merian C. Cooper and Edgar Wallace
THE BACK STORY You'd expect such an expensive, highly anticipated movie to keep production details under wraps, but much about the making of Kong has been made public in weekly video diaries that Jackson posted at kongisking.net. The director says there are plenty of surprises, though, like a sequence involving Shelob-like giant spiders that echoes a similar sequence cut from the 1933 movie. ''We've kept all the cool stuff secret,'' he says.
BURNING QUESTION Can Jackson recapture the awe, wonder, and terror that moviegoers felt when seeing the original movie for the first time?
COME FOR The king-size spectacle
STAY FOR The human-size relationship between Ann and ape. ''How your partner affects you, how you work problems out I know it sounds silly, but it's what Kong and Ann have to deal with,'' says Watts.

The War Against Non-Christians
By now, I'm sure y'all have heard about the so-called War on Christmas. Because, you know, Christians in America are an oppressed group. Unlike Jews, Muslims, pagans of various stripes, or atheists. It's not like their God is in the pledge that children have to speak every day… oh, wait, it is. Well, it's not like the majority of their religious holidays are national holidays… oh, wait, they are. Uh. Er. They're oppressed, really! I mean, prayer in school has been outlawed, evolution is taught in science class, the god-given commandments are not allowed to be in public buildings, and now… now they have to put up with "PC" phrases such as "Happy Holidays" and "Season's Greetings" being said alongside "Merry Christmas". If this continues, people of other faiths (or lack of faith) might start thinking that their beliefs are equal to those of the God Warriors!
I, myself, became a casualty of this vicious war when I was dealing with a credit card issue just a few days ago.
I was on the phone with the representative and after we had resolved everything she said, "Ha… Merry Christmas."
I replied, "And a Happy Holidays to you." Truth be told, what I really had wanted to say was, "Where the hell do you get off assuming that I celebrate Christmas?" But, really, it might not have been the rep's fault. From the way she started saying something else, it sounds like it's company policy. And that, my friends, is just not cool. Continue reading

Progressive Majority Washington Wins 11 of 12 Contested Primary Races
Progressive Majority Washington won big in the August 21, 2007 Primary. Of 12 contested primary campaigns, they only lost 1. Now on to November.
As Dean Nielson, Progressive Majority's Washington State Director, reported on the Progressive Majority website, they had a "great day".
One of their biggest victories was that of Brian Sullivan, running for the Snohomish County Council. He beat the conservative Democratic incumbent and is now the favorite to win in the November General Election because the District leans strongly Democratic.
Sullivan's victory was important because it swings the majority of the Snohomish County Council away from a conservative majority to a progressive majority.
Another Progressive Majority candidate for the Snohomish County Council, Mike Cooper, is also on the November ballot. He is a former Washington State Legislator who previously ran for Washington State Lands Commissioner.
Another big winner was Bill Sherman who won the democratic nomination for King County Prosecuting Attorney.
Progressive Majority's endorsed candidates who won August 21, 2007 Primary are:
John Lovick – Snohomish County Sheriff
Brian Sullivan – Snohomish County Council #1
Bob Kelly – Whatcom County Council
Dan McShane – Bellingham Mayor
Maureen Judge – Mercer Island City Council #3
Terry Scott – Shoreline City Council #6
Marilyn Strickland – Tacoma City Council #8
Ron Bonlender – Yakima City Council #3
Gael Tarleton – Seattle Port Commission #2
Alec Fisken – Seattle Port Commissioner #5
Bill Sherman – King County Prosecuting Attorney
Other Progressive Majority endorsed candidates on the November 6, 2007 ballot:
Keri Andrews – Bellevue City Council #7
Mike Cooper – Snohomish County Council #3
Ken Mann – Whatcom County Council #2B
Barry Peters – Bainbridge Island City Council #1
Adrienne Fraley-Monillas – Edmonds City Council #5
Strom Peterson – Edmonds City Council #7

Like...but Don't love I like these pants for the color and pattern. The fit..for me is too short (I'm 5'3"), but b/c there is extra in the hem area, I can have then lengthened. I don't like that there is no belt loop in the back...this make my belt move up and down...most pant have 5 belt loops these only have 4. Again I like them...so make your own decision with these. November 14, 2013
Love These are a great Fall staple in my wardrobe. I am loving the leg shape and the pattern. Fit true to size for Drew. I plan on wearing them with the brown boyfriend cardigan that the Limited has out right now. When the weather turns I can wear some tall brown boots with these as well. October 19, 2013
Cheap material Just like the jacket, it looks good online, but in person it is flimsy, unlined, and wrinkles easily. I returned them too. October 11, 2013
Favorite Pants I've never found a pair of pants from The Limited that I like on my body... Limited designers hit the bullseye with the Drew Houndstooth Pants. With my height (5'9) they seem to come up a little higher than shown in the picture, but they're still adorable. I definitely recommend purchasing these pants if you're considering them. Great job Limited, make more in other colors and patterns please! September 23, 2013
Excellent I love the Drew Pants! I'm size 4, and Limited pants are very true to the size. Fits and feels perfect. Recommended! September 20, 2013

Q:I have ordered several pairs of pants from LTD and depending on pant/style I need either a 2 or 4. I am torn between these, I want a tighter fit (not loose in the rear) but not too tight in other areas. If anyone has already purchased and can advise, it would be greatly appreciated. They vary so much by style and even color.

By Paul Rogers
I was fortunate enough to be sent to Treviso in Northern Italy this week for a portrait for The Times T2 section, only to discover on landing that the shoot had been cancelled. So I had almost 12 hours before my return flight with nothing to do. Thankfully I'd flown Ryan Air (never thought I'd use those words in the same sentence) which meant my carry on baggage was extremely limited, and so I'd taken only one Canon 5d MkIII and 3 lenses to cover the job. I'd decided to pack my Fuji X100S as a backup camera which turned out to be a great decision. I put my heavy DSLR and lenses in left luggage, along with my lighting equipment and hopped on a train to Venice with only the X100S and two batteries.
I've never been to Venice, so really enjoyed wandering around with no agenda, just photographing what looked interesting. I did need to send some stock pictures of Venice back to The Times, but that was the only real requirement. It was a pretty overcast day, but the X100S really produces some lovely colour tones even in flat light. I used the back button manual focus method for the entire day and shot mostly at f/2.0. All images were shot as jpeg and processed in Lightroom. Here's some of my favourites from the day, including dawn from seat 12A somewhere above Italy.

French 75 cocktail at Sepia. 2013 I Scott Stewart~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: March 20, 2013 4:40PM
Bub City serves up some pretty cool cocktail fare. Here are three other restaurants serving drinks that are worthy of your sipping time:
BILLY SUNDAY, 3143 W. Logan; (773) 661-2485;
Vibe: Named after the brimstone-slinging prohibitionist preacher, this spot outfitted with old photographs, spindle-back chairs and grandma china has a colonial tavern feel.
Flavor: A blend of spicy and grassy rums, tangy lime, bright passion fruit and pineapple bitters, Billy Sunday's daiquiri might be one of the best, balanced cocktails served in Chicago.
SEPIA, 123 N. Jefferson;
(312) 441-1920; www.sepiachicago.com
Vibe: Featuring silvery-drum shade wrapped crystal chandeliers, old brick walls and sleek stone veneers, the restaurant that was once a print shop is the perfect juxtaposition of modern and vintage.
Flavor: Andrew Zimmerman's housemade charcuterie should not be missed, and it must be washed down with the "French 75," a mix of gin, lemon sour, orange bitters and zingy sparkling rose.
SABLE KITCHEN & BAR, 505 N. State; (312) 755-9704; www.sablechicago.com
Vibe: Black lacquer and white marble give this spot in the Palomar Hotel a sexy lounge feel.
Flavor: Head bartender Mike Ryan's "Long Road Home" cocktail, featuring grassy dry vermouth, smoky mezcal, sweet agave and puckering lemon, is a mouth-whetting palate-opener, the perfect complement to chef Heather Terhune's upscale bar food.

Dorian Leigh - biography
Dorian Leigh (April 23, 1917 – July 7, 2008), born Dorian Elizabeth Leigh Parker, was an American model and one of the earliest modelling icons of the fashion industry. She is considered one of the first supermodels and was well known in the United States and Europe. Dorian Leigh Parker was born in San Antonio, Texas, to George and Elizabeth Parker. Her parents married when they were around 17 or 18 years old and Elizabeth promptly gave birth to three daughters in quick succession: Dorian (1917-2008), Florian (Cissie) (1918-2010), and Georgiabell (1919-?). Thirteen years after the birth of her last daughter, Elizabeth thought she was going through menopause and was shocked to discover that she was pregnant. She gave birth to her fourth daughter, Cecilia (1932-2003) (who became known as model/actress Suzy Parker). The family moved to Jackson Heights, Queens soon after Dorian's birth and later to Metuchen, N.J. There George Parker invented a new form of etching acid, production of which gave him enough income to retire. Dorian graduated from Newton High School in Queens, NY, in 1935 and enrolled at Randolph Macon Women's College in Lynchburg, Virginia. In her autobiography, Dorian  ( Wikipedia article )

It's a new, smaller product for getting the internet on your television. Roku unveiled its new "streaming stick" this week. The device is about the size of a pack of gum. It plugs into an HDMI port on almost any newer TV and allows you to stream content from online services like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon. The Roku streaming stick costs 50 dollars and will be available in April.
Apple is collaborating on a new device— hearing aids. Apple and Danish company GN Resound have developed a new hearing aid that's compatible with the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. Phone calls, facetime chats, music, movies, and turn-by-turn navigation can be streamed directly to the small earpiece. The device, called Linx, runs about three-thousand dollars.
And, Tech Crunch is reporting that Facebook is buying 'Titan Aerospace'. The company makes solar-powered drones, which can fly for five years without having to land! The report says Facebook's goal is get internet to parts of the world that don't have it.

So why have I rated it so high? The staff, was incredible. Anything we could possibly want or do, they were on top of, sometimes anticipating what we wanted before we did! From the communication online in booking our stay, to every second we were there, to the final check out. They took care of us and did it with a smile. It was just amazing.
If you are looking for an affordable hotel with 5 star customer service, look no further than the Hotel Copacabana! Thank you.

Top Local Tips for Jaco
general information With the hotel located right on the beach, it is perfect for those that like to surf, and loaner boards are available, mine being one of them. You are within an hours drive of many of the popular tourist destinations. If you want to do a sunset horseback ride, starting in the mountains to see monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans etc., have one of the staff put you in touch with "Lilly of the Jungle". It is a great trip ending on the beach back at the hotel.
getting around I you aren't an experienced stick shift / 5 speed driver or have never driven in Central America I HIGHLY suggest having someone drive you, atleast for the first few days or to more remote areas. The driving conditions are rough, there aren't alot of street signs in some places and safety can be an issue as well. We enjoyed not having to worry about finding gas, where to park, were we going the right way. The driving was adventurous enough without us trying to do it! Oh and if you get car sick, bring meds and those pressure point writst bracelets. I had a few times I was a little naseous but it didn't get bad with the bracelets/cuffs and I only took meds once and that was on Day One because I was so nervous/excited on top of the driving!

Assembly News and Updates
Always Being Made New
Presiding Bishop tells assembly about "God's Work. Our Hands. Sunday
ELCA Presiding Bishop Mark Hanson reminded the 2013 Churchwide Assembly that on Sunday Sept. 8 the ELCA will observe the 25th anniversary of this church with a dedicated day of service. Wearing the bright, gold t-shirt designed especially for the day of service, Hanson told the assembly, "As we continue to celebrate our 25th anniversary year as the ELCA, we have a unique opportunity to recognize and celebrate how we are one church, freed in Christ to serve and love our neighbor. On "God's work. Our hands. Sunday" we'll have a dedicated day of service to do just that, together as 4 million baptized believers in nearly 10,000 congregations, 65 synods and the churchwide expression. We've already heard from hundreds of congregations from across this church, indicating their participation and excitement for this day of service," he said.
Hanson told the assembly that as of this week, more than 55,000 t-shirts have been ordered "to help make our witness known in communities across this country."
"You work every day to welcome your neighbors and make your community a better place from preparing and delivering meals to helping a child learn how to read. Together, as one body, we will share God's love and do God's work of restoring and reconciling communities in Jesus Christ's name," Hanson said.

NASCAR and Phoenix International Raceway saluted America's armed forces and the USO with a donation of 600 tickets to two of the upcoming races this weekend while two rising racing stars paid a special USO visit to Luke Air Force Base yesterday.
The tickets, which were distributed to troops and their families by USO Arizona, are for Mexico's NASCAR Toyota Series race today and the NASCAR Nationwide Series Dollar General 200 Fueled by AmeriGas tomorrow. Both races take place at Phoenix International Raceway.
In honor of the donation, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and NASCAR up-and-coming driver Daniel Suárez dropped by Luke Air Force Base to mingle, talk racing and answer questions from military members and their families.
The USO first began working with NASCAR in 2011. This visit marks the first USO tour for Suárez and the second for Stenhouse, who traveled to Kuwait and Germany in December 2012 and visited with more than 655 military personnel.

The federal government is mandated to dedicate a certain amount of the nation's corn every year for ethanol production. Some Illinois lawmakers say the Environmental Protection Agency should lower that amount this year because of the devastating drought that has decimated corn crops.
Tropical Storm Isaac has dismantled Illinois Republicans' convention plans. With national convention events cancelled, they will no longer spend Monday nominating Mitt Romney as their candidate for president. That leaves an opportunity for them to focus on state politics.

Article in our local paper stating that Atheists have far better sex lives than religious people, who are plagued with guilt during intercourse and for weeks afterwards, researches have found.
A study found that non-believers were more willing to discuss sexual fantasies and more satisfied with their experiences....
Then went on to say that strict religions such as Mormons ranked highest on the scale of sexual guilt. Their average score was 8.19 out of 10. They were followed closely by Jehovah's Witnesses, Pentecostals, Seventh Day Adventists and Baptists. Interesting that Catholics scored 6.34.
This article brought back memories for me as a newly married JW. I went to my GP (Jewish) and discussed among other things, that I felt so guilty about sex.... He misunderstood me and said ""just obey the 11th commandment"" - DONT GET CAUGHT....lol
I was riddled with guilt about fantasizing.....a woman needs a bit of help! I have come a long way since then.

Oz, once my scanner is repaired, will gladly post or get someone to do it for me. Found it surprising that 2 articles were written in our normally conservative paper - within a month apart. The second one discussed the fact that far from being the purveyors of unconditional love and acceptance, organised religion often comes with a rather large asterisk. Then goes on to say that even within the broad confines of Christianity, multiple sects and fringes have their own holy cows, so to speak......Mormonism demands that we subscribe - in theory as well as in practice - to the fact that men are superior to women in every way, while virtually every denomination, from the Baptists all the way through to the Jehovah's Witnesses, believe that God takes a very keen, very stern interest in who you love, how you love them and what happens behind your bedroom door at night....this asterisk of God's love and acceptance, as interpreted by a group of elders or religious leaders.....
LouBelle, I know what you mean, although it's always a work in progress - getting rid of these feelings of guilt. The sad thing is that it's not good guilt - happy that you have embraced your sexuality!

I can fully understand why JWs are guilt-ridden over sex. The WTS intrudes on every part of the lives of members, telling them how to do everything except how to wipe their butts. Stern directives have been made about what is and is not appropriate in the bedroom between married couples, which can only inhibit young couples in discovering their sexuality and make obedient Witnesses feel guilty about even wanting to do certain things.
The pressure to inform the elders of any behavioral aberration would also stop many partners from even voicing to their spouse a preference for any particular sexual activity lest their partner decide to "seek assistance," thus guaranteeing half the congo would know inside a week.
I recall some years ago a prim elder's wife commenting on a TV program she'd been watching which showed some sexual activity .... "The woman was on top, I mean, it was almost pornographic!"
And it all starts so young, with frequent admonitions in books, magazines and public talks (for God's sake!) about the "problem" of masturbation, telling poor young buggers to confess to the elders and, again, seek their help. The more they focus on it, the guiltier they feel and the more screwed up they get.

Thanks for the link BP . . . my own experience confirms these findings
I found this comment interesting . . .
'Of course, they have to return to their religion to get forgiveness. It's like the church gives you the disease, then offers you a fake cure.'
The highlighted words could refer to the concept of sin in general . . . and sum up organised religion IMO . . . it's their lifeblood.

Thanks for the link BP. I am a continent away and I see they stole that article. The other article I mentioned was written by a local reporter.
Mr M, they are extremely intrusive and it's incredible that we have accepted this. A friend who is still a JW was recently telling me about an elder who called on her about 20 years ago to ask whether she was engaging in oral sex as she was married to a "worldly guy" - and let's face it, these worldly men are perverted you know. I asked her whether she thought it strange that he would call on her alone.... said she did find it odd but he is an Elder (All Elders are eunuchs I guess), however she was extremely embarrassed and this was the first time she had mentioned this incident to anyone.
How many of us have experienced incidences like this and yet we refused to acknowledge that this wasn't normal behaviour.
I digress but a young girl who left the org. cited this particular elder as the reason she had left. Maintained he had stumbled her because he had made advances towards her. Of course nobody believed her. In hindsight, I wonder.
On the other side of the coin, can you imagine what the elders must have gone through listening to sisters who ran to them with every trivial detail.

That's probably the most action they get all year. They, no pun intended, lap it up.

I'll never forget going before a JC once and they asked for some "WEIRD" details. "Was her breasts exposed?" what kind of question is that?
Fornication is fornication, adultery is adultery. Does one get less punishment if he sees no nipple? Where is this in the Bible?

WASHINGTON (AP) — An Education Department commission is recommending pre-kindergarten programs for every poor student within 10 years, adding a timeframe to President Barack Obama's similar call to help the least advantaged arrive for their first day of classes as prepared as their counterparts from more affluent homes.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan on Tuesday released his Equity and Excellence Commission's report, which is not binding but includes input from his top aides and the White House's chief education policy adviser. In the report, the commissioners documented the inequalities of the nation's schools and recommended ways to ensure that students from poorer neighborhoods aren't automatically enrolled in less-effective schools.
"The time has come for bold action by the states — and the federal government — to redesign and reform the funding of our nation's public schools. Achieving equity and excellence requires sufficient resources that are distributed based on student need, not ZIP code, and that are efficiently used," the 52-page report urged after two years of study of the gap between rich and poor students.
The report called on a new federal program to send tax dollars to schools with high numbers of low-income students, especially those with large gaps between the best and worst students. The commission also urged Washington to offer other money as an incentive for states to spend their own money on schools with high concentrations of low-income students and to make sure it is not too easy to become a teacher.
"We asked them not what they thought we wanted to hear but what they thought," Duncan told reporters on a conference call to announce the commission's findings. "In far too many communities, the children who need the most help get the least."
Those recommendations were likely to find resistance in Congress, which is facing pressure to come up with a plan by March 1 to reduce the deficit. Absent a deal, potentially devastating spending cuts would automatically kick in, affecting everything from defense to existing pre-kindergarten options to meat inspection and port security. But the commissioners, many of them from colleges' education departments and advocacy groups typically friendly to the administration, said they wanted to give their best advice to the Education Department independent of politics.
Obama has outlined a broad proposal to partner with states, which would set up their own pre-kindergarten systems and in turn receive federal dollars. Some states are already operating pre-kindergarten programs; Obama cited Georgia and Oklahoma during his State of the Union address and later visited an Atlanta-area program to promote his idea.
Administration officials have refused to outline their proposal's details or cost, and instead suggest reporters wait for the president's budget to be released next month.
While these recommendations are independent of the administration, White House education adviser Roberto Rodriguez participated on the panel, as did Duncan's chief of staff and four other top Education Department officials. The commission delivered its final recommendations to Duncan on Feb. 2, ahead of Obama's Feb. 12 State of the Union address that gave pre-kindergarten programs a star turn.
"Smart states know that if they're going to get kids to grade level by third grade or whatever, they have to start early," said Margaret Spellings, an education secretary and domestic policy counselor during President George W. Bush's administration.
In an interview Tuesday, she said she doesn't expect Obama's proposal for pre-kindergarten for all — including middle-income families — to find traction in a divided Washington.
"It's kind of a sideshow, in my view," said Spellings, now president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation.
Inaction, though, is not an option, Democratic lawmakers vowed.
"At the end of the day, we're not going to solve this problem just through court action or hoping states do the right thing for poor children," said Rep. Chaka Fattah, D-Pa. "We can't afford to have a third or more of our children in the shadow of opportunity."
The commission did not put a price tag on any of its recommendations and intentionally kept many of its potentially divisive recommendations vague when addressing ways to fix the vast differences among states in per-pupil spending. In 2010, for instance, Utah spent $6,454 per student while New York spent $18,167 for each student.
"We need to ensure that we get everyone to the same starting line," said Rep. Mike Honda, D-Calif. "We need to redesign education financing for our schools."
Money, of course, is not a guarantee for student success. But students from poor schools generally lag students from better-funded counterparts and those students from impoverished families arrive in kindergarten less prepared than others.
"We have to stop saying that poverty excuses the achievement gap and recognize there are concrete measures that we can take, starting with early childhood education," said Christopher Edley, dean of the University of California at Berkeley law school and co-chairman of the commission.
It is a moral and policy issue, as well, the report's authors argued.
"Our country has the highest poverty rate of any in the developed world," said Mariano-Florentino Cuellar, a Stanford University law school professor and co-chair of the commission. "From Day One, these children are more likely to drop out of school, less likely to attend college."
The commission's report also recommends a process by which ineffective elected school boards could be deposed and replaced with appointed oversight boards. The commission also suggests a threshold of training and experience for new teachers, as well as urges schools to be more selective in their hiring process.

Americans should get rid of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and income tax and cut government spending, the executive director of the Libertarian Party in Washington told Press TV's U.S Desk.
Carla Howell said "we don't need an income tax and we certainly don't need the IRS."
She added that the "libertarian party is running candidates to dramatically downsize the federal government, which we can cut by perhaps 50% or even 90%."
Howell stated that if the IRS was eliminated, living in America and doing business in America would be much better because there would be no IRS to target political enemies; individuals, businesses and political organizations "will all be safe."
At various points over the past two years, Internal Revenue Service officials singled out for scrutiny not only groups with "tea party" or "patriot" in their names but also nonprofit groups that criticized the government and sought to educate Americans about the U.S. Constitution, according to documents in an audit conducted by the agency's inspector general.
The IRS apologized Friday for what it acknowledged was "inappropriate" targeting of conservative political groups to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status.
The agency blamed low-level employees, saying no high-level officials were aware.
But, according to a draft of an inspector general's report obtained by the Associated Press, senior IRS officials knew agents were targeting tea party groups as early as 2011.

The pro-Putin rally on Poklonnaya Gora in Moscow has finished. According to the police, it gathered some 120 thousand people.
On Friday Vladimir Putin thanked those who would come to Poklonnaya for supporting him and spoke about threats coming from the "orange opposition".
The police estimated the number of participants at Poklonnaya as 128 thousand, while the Bolotnaya opposition meeting was attended by 36 thousand.
"The Bolotnaya square meeting was attended by a maximum of 36 thousand people," RIA Novosti reported, citing police.
This number is laughed at by Twitter users – witnesses of the Bolotnaya meeting who say some 80 people attended it.

Colorado's first female three-time All-American, Heather Burroughs begins her 10th season on the staff of her alma mater assisting coach Mark Wetmore with the men's and women's teams. Since joining the staff, she has assisted with 12 conference championship teams, four NCAA championships teams and 44 All-Americans. Burroughs was promoted to associate head coach following the 2011 season where the Buffs swept the inaugural Pac-12 Championships to win the conference's first two team championships.
In Burroughs' nine track seasons assisting the men's and women's middle and long distance runners, CU athletes have had an impact at the conference, NCAA, American and world levels on the track. To date, 33 have captured individual conference titles and 45 have earned All-American accolades. The women have won 10 individual NCAA titles and have broken six collegiate records. Since 2007, CU runners have won four U.S. outdoor titles. They have earned four individual berths on U.S. outdoor world championship teams as well as three individual berths on the U.S. Olympic team.
During Burroughs' CU cross country career, she was a top-five and all-conference finisher in 1994, '95, '97 and '98 with a runner-up finish in '95. She claimed all-district honors those same seasons and was an All-American in 1994, '95 and '98. The Buffs finished in the top four of the NCAA in three of those seasons which include a runner-up finish in 1995.
On the track, she was the Big 8 Conference Women's Indoor Track Newcomer of the Year in 1995. She won one conference individual title, scored in 15 conference races and was an indoor 5,000-meter All-American in 1998. Burroughs qualified for six NCAA indoor and outdoor races during her career.
Burroughs was born in Kansas City, Kan. and attended Pembroke Hill High School. She graduated from CU in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts in biology.

Summary: A pleasant hike in a ponderosa pine forest with interesting rocks and cliffs
Challenge Level: Easy
Hiking Distance: About 5 1/2 miles round trip
Trailhead Directions: From the "Y" (the intersection of State Route 89A and State Route 179) proceed north on SR 89A through Uptown Sedona and head in to Oak Creek Canyon. Drive for 17 1/2 miles and turn right on FR 237, a dirt road, at the north end of a guard rail, which is about 1 1/2 miles past the scenic overlook. Follow the dirt road for about 1 mile until you come to a yellow sign showing a left arrow. Make a right turn here on to an unmarked, rough faint road and drive downhill for about 500 feet to a flat area where you park. Note: if you don't have a high clearance 4 wheel drive vehicle, park on the road and walk down to the parking area.
Go down the hill on your left in a northeasterly direction. You'll be in Pumphouse Wash at the bottom of the hill. Proceed straight across the wash up a dry streambed for about 500 feet and you'll come to the beginning of the trail.
Description: This hike takes you through a pine forest near Flagstaff off of SR 89A (Oak Creek Canyon). There are interesting rock formations as you travel along Kelly Canyon via Pumphouse Wash. After 1 mile, Kelly Canyon goes right (northeast) and is hard to follow. So we hike north on a well defined trail that follows Pumphouse Wash.
The ambient temperature you encounter for this hike is cool because of the elevation (about 6400 feet) and the shade provided by the trees. The trail intersects FR 237 after about 2 3/4 miles. We found snow on our hike late in April 2009. The early morning summer temperatures are in the 50's and low 60's making this a wonderful summer hike. There were a number of wildflowers along the trail. Here's a link to a video from our July 2011 hike (http://youtu.be/Pxhdl3-5Jes).

Here are photos taken in June 2008 by Lou Camp

POSTED: Saturday, September 1, 2012 - 5:50pm
UPDATED: Saturday, September 1, 2012 - 8:02pm
BATON ROUGE, LA (NBC33) — The capitol area has a brand new entertainment hot spot.
The L'Auberge Casino Hotel opened Saturday afternoon to a large and excited crowd. Lines started forming before the doors opened, and traffic backed up almost to Nicholson Drive well into the afternoon.
The grand opening was supposed to have been last Wednesday, but Hurricane Isaac delayed those plans. The casino took a risk by holding its opening on the same day as LSU's first football game, but that risk paid off.
"All of us were focused first on making sure the storm passed safely though and people
were taken care of," said Pinnacle Entertainment CEO Anthony Sanfilippo. "We knew today would come."
"Today made up for (the wait)," echoed the casino's general manager, Mickey Parenton. "The energy on our team members' faces, the energy on the customers. It's been a long time coming, and it's just a great day."
The hotel has 204 guest rooms and a 12,000 square foot event space. The casino has three restaurants, including a buffet, a sports bar, and a steakhouse, as well as 74,000 square feet of gaming space.
The casino employees 1,400 people, and Parenton said that 93 percent of those jobs went to local residents. Some of them received as much as eight months of training before Saturday's official opening.
The casino took more than two years to complete, at a price of $368 million.
