LOS ANGELES — For the fifth year, Mississippi is showcasing its musical legacy as part of GRAMMY Week, a preamble to the GRAMMY Awards ceremony.
Today, the "Mississippi Music Celebration at the GRAMMY Museum" at L.A. LIVE in downtown Los Angeles is celebrating the state's musical heritage and specifically honoring Mississippi's pivotal role in the development of American popular music.
Tonight, a VIP reception and tour of the museum will be hosted featuring music from the DMI Allstars. Also, Mississippi's Music Celebration will feature performances by the Mac McAnally, Tricia Walker and the DMI Allstars in the Museum's Clive Davis Theater.
In April 2010, the state of Mississippi and the GRAMMY Museum announced the first ever satellite GRAMMY Museum to be built on the campus of Delta State University in Cleveland. GRAMMY Museum Mississippi and the Delta Music Institute will form a unique partnership that will inspire and help shape the music and musicians of today and for generations to come. GRAMMY Museum Mississippi will be dedicated to exploring the past, present and future of music and the cultural context from which it emerges. The Museum will use a dynamic combination of exhibits, public events, and educational programming to explore, celebrate, and experience the enduring legacies of all forms of re- corded music; the creative process of music making; the art and technology of the recording process; and the history of the GRAMMY Awards, the premier recognition of recorded music accomplishment.
The Mississippi Music Celebration at the GRAMMY Museum is made possible through the support of Mississippi Development Authority's Tourism Division, AT&T, BankPlus, Mississippi Economic Council, Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Mississippi and the Cleveland Music Foundation.

Blessed with good looks, good taste, and a nice twang in his voice, Paisley could have gone pure country-pop but decided to stick fairly close to his roots and play a nice amalgam of honky tonk, Western swing, and pop. It was straight out of the George Strait handbook, but it was nicely done on his first two records, particularly compared to a crop of new artists who seemed anxious to gun for the big hit. Paisley never seemed that desperate for chart success; he took it easy, so any sales seemed to be the side effect of his easygoing charm. That, along with his exceptional taste, garnered critical favor and a nice, dedicated base of fans, but his third album, 2003's Mud on the Tires, is where some cracks in the facade are revealed. It's not that it's a bad album, because it isn't. Far from it, actually -- it's a really good record, boasting a set of songs that are arguably his most consistent and illustrating Paisley's capable grasp on a wide variety of styles and sounds, from honky tonk and Western swing to plaintive bluegrass, country-folk, and even country-pop novelties. These are all the things that have made Paisley such a hot commodity among those listeners who prize traditionalism in country music (which, let's face it, most country fans do ). With his crackerjack band, featuring guitarist Redd Volkaert and bassist Kevin "Swine" Grantt, he sounds good, reverent, and muscular, recalling classic country in a way that will be appealing to most listeners, whether they prefer George Jones or George Strait. No, the cracks in the facade do not lie in the sound of the music -- it's in the feel and flavor of the music. Brad Paisley suffers from a near-terminal cutesiness that undercuts his music, making even good moments seem a little affected. And this cutesiness just flows from every other song on the record. There's the hit single "Celebrity," where he "skewers" celebrity hijinks in a way that suggests nothing but the "wacky" video that's sure to accompany it. There's "Ain't Nothin' Like," a paean to simple pleasures boasting one of the shrillest kid's chorus ever committed to tape. Then, there's "Spaghetti Western Swing," primarily a showcase for Volkaert, but burdened with an awful mock radio play written by Paisley and performed by George Jones, Little Jimmy Dickens, and Bill Anderson. There are the homespun "truths" on "That's Love" (as in, "That ain't a lie/That's love") that operate on the same level as Tracy Byrd's "The Truth About Men," only without the conviction to be truly silly. The Byrd comparison is a good one -- Paisley has more musical muscle and a better band than Byrd, but he lacks the spirit; he seems to be putting on a show, and that affectation keeps his music from digging as deep as it should. On the surface, Mud on the Tires is a fine, satisfying listen, but to truly live up to the mantle that's been bestowed upon him, Paisley had better start adding substance to his admittedly fetching style. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Read Less

BA brands new airline OpenSkies
LONDON - British Airways (BA) has unveiled details of its offshoot airline, called OpenSkies, offering flights between Continental Europe and the US.
The new airline, which has been in development under the codename 'Project Lauren', has been named after the agreement which makes its service possible.
It launches in June with one Boeing 757 aircraft and will fly between Brussels and Paris, and New York. It will offer business, premium economy and economy cabins, ending previous speculation that the new brand would be an all-premium service.
The airline's business class cabin will have 24 seats that convert into six-foot flat beds. The aircraft will also have 28 premium economy seats with a 52-inch seat pitch and 30 economy seats.
A second aircraft, which will fly to the other EU destination, will be added to the fleet later in the year. BA is aiming to have six 757s in operation by the end of 2009, which will be sourced from its current fleet.
The planes will have winglets retro-fitted on the aircraft, which BA claims will improve fuel efficiency, reduce the aircraft's CO2 emissions and increase the aircraft's operating range.
BA chief executive Willie Walsh said: 'This is an exciting new venture for us and we're confident that it will be a great success as we build on the strength of British Airways' brand in the US and Europe.'
'It also signals our determination to lobby for further liberalisation in this market when talks between the EU and US take place later this year,' he added.
The move has been made possible by the 'open skies' agreement, which will allow EU or US carriers to fly from anywhere in Europe to the US from March. BA will shortly file an application for the necessary regulatory approval in the US and UK.
The British government wants a further deal that lifts restrictions on foreign ownership of US airlines and permits European carriers to operate internal flights within the US.
According to industry insiders OpenSkies, which will be managed by BA's former director of worldwide sales Dale Moss, may run in to difficulty with obtaining slots at a congested at New York's JFK airport.
Design agency Baron & Davies, who worked on BA's Terminal 5 lounges, developed the branding for OpenSkies. Advertising for the launch is expected to be handled by Bartle Bogle Hegarty.

Friendly Friday - Empty Nester
Here is the front lawn decked out for his annual summer get together. Stick around for more party photos. But first, let me show you the beauty of an empty nest.
Ralph's son left for college two years ago. During that time Ralph has transformed his house from a space focused on the needs of a teenager and his friends, into a sophisticated home that caters to adults, but is comfortable for all ages.
The living room sets the tone for Ralph's home with rich olive taupe walls, creating a perfect backdrop for boldly colored artwork. Pine cones are a nod to natural found objects displayed throughout the house.
A floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is the centerpiece of the family room which has the relaxed feel a north woods lodge. The mantel is solid unvarnished ash and the artwork highlights foliage from native trees surrounding the Great Lakes.
Outdoor design elements are carried into the kitchen seating area with iron pine tree stenciling on the overhead lamp and rust colored granite counter tops.
Brick red cabinets and a natural stone backsplash complete the look. A pastel sketch of Ralph's son as a young boy brings a personal touch to the space.
The second floor of Ralph's house has seen the most dramatic change since his son moved out. This office was originally one of three bedrooms. To create this space, the wall between the hallway and bedroom was opened up and a ledge built.
The burnt orange walls are variations on the color schemes used throughout the first floor.
All the photos in Ralph's office picture someone reading a book. Notice that the frames are the same size and are black. This brings symmetry to the room. A close-up of one photo dating from the early 1900s, shows a hospital patient reading while convalescing in bed.
Until two years ago, this upstairs bedroom was used by Ralph's son. Now it is a meditation room! Simplicity is the defining design element. Long gone are the days where sports gear and dirty clothes covered the floor.
Hardware on the cabinet was replaced and the wood stripped bare to blend with the calm natural color scheme of the room.
Small touches, like this sconce, add to the stark beauty of this space.
Ralph has carried the serenity of his meditation room outdoors. This is the view to his garden.
And now for my favorite empty nester home renovation made by Ralph. He took out the bathroom tub and created an adult mini-spa!
Yes, that is marble on the walls. Just beautiful!
Notice the built-in ledge for toiletries. Sigh...
This is my dream bathroom!
Back to the party. The 'Ice Cream Station' with a choice of ice cream and toppings was a huge hit.
And here is one of the youngest guests. Ralph is the elegant bald gentleman in the background. The party was epic!
Enjoy your weekend!

Laney, I'm officially appointing you the Poet Laureate of Jewel Box. Your 'phrasing' is extraordinarily beautiful! "There is no empty nest as long as one heart is beating". Just lovely! And we all need to congratulate Laney on her new grandbaby who is just a few weeks old!

I'm ready to move! Ralph's home is amazing and I too love that kitchen!
Congrats Laney on the new grandbaby. Genevieve and I have a bit of a wait for that day to come.
I love your analogy of a home not being an empty nest as long as one heart is beating.
Just had that chat with my husband today as we prepare to send our youngest who is eager to start college, into his final year of high school.
Sure would love an update from Charlie.

Hi June! How nice of you to give a shout out to Laney about her grandbaby. And yes, we do have to wait awhile for our grandchildren. But I hear from Laney, it is worth the wait!

First Lutheran Church to hold Lucia celebration Dec. 8
Online Staff Report
The community is invited to First Lutheran Church's annual Lucia Fest from 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Dec. 8, at the church, 225 S. Third St., in Rockford's Haight Village.
The event includes a Santa Lucia and her special guests, as well as a Treasure Table, baked goods, crafts, refreshments and continuous live music throughout the morning. Sixty loaves of Swedish rye bread made with a Lucia braid (cinnamon or cardamon flavored) will be available for sale, as well as Korv made by Tabor Lutheran Church.
Among the featured musical groups and musicians will be students from the Rockford Music Academy, the Windswept Quintet and the Bach Chamber Choir.
First Lutheran's Lucia Day celebrates the Swedish Festival of Lights holiday. According to legend, Lucia was a medieval saint who carried food and drink to hungry people during a period of famine. She was seen dressed in a white gown with a crown of lights. In Sweden, the Lucia Day is celebrated in every home, school and workplace on the morning of Dec. 13. In the United States, churches with strong Scandinavian roots, like First Lutheran, continue to celebrate the holiday each December.
For more information about First Lutheran's Lucia Fest, contact the church office at (815) 962-6691.

Reminds me of a joke we played on a mate back in my surfer days. We have a liniment for aching muscles called "Deep Heat" down here. I believe the equivalent in the US is called "IcyHot". Anyway, it has cayenne pepper in it amongst other things. So some mates and I had planned a surfing weekend, Ivan had a lousy cold but he wanted to go anyway. Now Ivan preferred to go commando in his wetsuit, because he said he didn't like swimwear or underwear bunching up under the wetsuit. We turned up at this beach at daybreak, absolutely beautiful waves, and in spite of his cold, Ivan was hopping from one foot to the other with excitement. Anyway, we managed to keep him distracted long enough to smear a whole tube of deepheat in the crotch of his wetsuit. Because he had a cold he couldn't smell a thing. He did a quick change behind the car, not really noticing that we were just standing around watching him. He zipped up his wetsuit, grabbed his board then stopped dead as a stunned expression came over his face. Then he grabbed his crotch, let out an almighty howl, and sprinted for the water. I swear you could see a cloud of steam when he jumped in! We were rolling on the sand laughing our heads off. |

Hey Bob,
Dare I say it, I actually heard a plausible reason for V-tails. Here in SoCal where we fly there's a lot of brush in the landing area (cow%#&* as well), and my friend say's that the V-tail is less prone to brush damage . I still don't think I want one! I fly a Dream-flight Weasel pro, a foam wing that will really take a beating and still fly great! I also thermal it! Dave. |

"Delicious! My family just gobbled them up, and asked for more! (I made another type of latke at the same time - sweet potato - which was also very good, but this won the contest hands down.) Thanks so much for this great recipe!"
"This recipe is AMAZING! Based on the recommendation of other reviewers, I added about half a cup of tomato sauce to the mixture, but other than that, stuck to the recipe. EVERYONE in my family LOVED it (which is in itself a very rare occasion - usually we only agree on cake and dessert recipes, and even then, not always :-), and of course, no one ..."
"Absolutely delicious! My chocaholic mother actually likes it better than chocolate cake - which is a first in our house!"
"I used tomato sauce with some sugar and spices instead of the ketchup (believe it or not, there's someone in the family who doesn't like ketchup!), and it was DELICIOUS! It was incredibly tender, as promised in the recipe, and everyone loved it. I definitely plan to make it again."
"Incredible! This is more of a cake than a pie, but whatever you call it, it's a real treat. I made it with canned blueberries, which are a bit sour in my part of the world, and it was excellent. I would make it with other fruits, too. BTW, it's also very easy to make, and it looks beautiful. What more could I ask for?"
"This cake is definitely five-star, but the instructions aren't! Specifically, Step 3 is very confusing - that's the streusel, and should really go at the end. This is probably the right way to go around it:Prepare the batter (all the ingredients listed in the recipe besides the last 4) - i.e. Steps 1-7 but IGNORE Step 3.Pour the batter into th..."
"Yum! A new family favorite! Amazing taste and texture - and yes, it is best refrigerated."
"YUM! I had misplaced my own lemon bar recipe, which was very similar to this, so when I found this, I knew I had to try it out. The only change I made was to add more lemon juice (almost doubled the amount), but then again, I didn't put in grated lemon peel. The cake came out fantastic - actually better than my original recipe, although that's har..."

Landover, MD (SportsNetwork.com) - Forget about winning the NFC West, the San Francisco 49ers are just hoping to stay in the playoff hunt.
Colin Kaepernick shook off his woes and helped the 49ers get back on track by outdueling another young struggling zone-read quarterback.
Kaepernick threw two of his three touchdown passes to Anquan Boldin and eclipsed the 200-yard passing mark for the first time in more than a month as the 49ers took down the Washington Redskins 27-6 on Monday night.
Kaepernick was 15-of-24 for 235 yards, and Boldin totaled 94 yards receiving on five receptions as the 49ers (7-4) snapped a two-game losing streak to move into a tie with the Arizona Cardinals for the sixth and final playoff spot in the NFC.
"For the team, this was one of those that we had to have. We came a long way to get it," 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh said.
Kaepernick hadn't topped the 200-yard mark since throwing for 252 yards in a 32-20 victory over the Cardinals on Oct. 13. It was just the third time this year he's gone over 200 yards passing.
Kaepernick, who averaged 15.7 yards a completion, hadn't completed a pass over 17 yards during the brief losing skid.
Robert Griffin III completed 17-of-27 passes for 127 yards with an interception for Washington (3-8), which has dropped three in a row.
"We haven't gotten dominated like that since I've been here," Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said.
Kaepernick and RG3 burst onto the scene in 2012, with Kaepernick leading the Niners to a Super Bowl appearance and Griffin winning the Rookie of the Year award while guiding the Redskins to a divisional crown.
A year later, though, both have been mediocre as defenses have done a better job of adjusting to the read-option. Coming in, Kaepernick's passer rating was down 16 points from 2012, while Griffin's had dropped 18 points.
The Redskins went three-and-out on seven of their 12 offensive possessions.
The 49ers led 10-6 at the break, but Vernon Davis fumbled on the third offensive play from scrimmage in the second half as he was trying to fight for extra yardage. Barry Cofield poked the ball loose and Brandon Meriweather made the recovery at the SF 49.
Faced with a 4th-and-2 four plays later, however, San Francisco linebackers Patrick Willis and NaVarro Bowman stuffed Roy Helu in the hole to give the ball back to the 49ers.
Kaepernick hit Boldin for a 32-yard gain on a 3rd-and-7 and then found Davis for 20 yards two plays later before he found Boldin, who worked the end line, in the back of the end zone for a 17-6 San Francisco cushion.
Following a pair of Washington three-and-outs, LaMichael James' 40-yard punt return gave San Francisco the ball at the Redskins' 39-yard line. Kaepernick flipped a 1-yard score to Davis to cap the 6-play march and make it 24-6 late in the third.
After the Redskins again went three-and-out, Phil Dawson nailed a 49-yard field goal to conclude the scoring at the 9:01 mark of the fourth.
Earlier, Kaepernick's 19-yard TD pass to Boldin opened the scoring late in the first and Donte Whitner's interception of Griffin on Washington's ensuing sequence led to a 29-yard Dawson field goal for a 10-0 spread early in the second.
Kai Forbath booted through a pair of field goals in the second to get the Redskins with four heading into the locker room.

Flanked by suburbia and encroaching high-rise developments, this is a little gem. The site was originally occupied by former convict farmer, James Ruse who acquired the colony's first land grant in 1791. Two years later he sold the site to the Colonial Surgeon, John Harris. The existing cottage was built by Harris in the 1830s and ultimately became one of the first properties acquired by the National Trust. Its interior is also significant, being based upon an 1838 inventory and includes major examples of early colonial furniture.

The search marketing trade group expands its initiatives focused on in-house SEM pros.
The Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization (SEMPO) is launching several initiatives to better serve the specific needs of search marketing professionals that work inside an organization.
From its inception, the group has intended to serve the needs of both in-house marketers and agencies, but often its education and research initiatives have leaned toward the agency side. The group began to shift that balance earlier this year, creating an In-House SEM Committee and adding support tools specifically for that group.
"Search people are on an island and don't have the same knowledge-sharing that happens at agencies. This is tough in a rapidly changing industry," Dave Williams, co-chair of SEMPO's In-House SEM Committee and chief strategist for 360i, told ClickZ.
SEMPO aims to help these marketers learn how to build out their search team, improve knowledge-sharing within their organization and make the most of the limited time and resources in-house search marketers generally have, Williams said.
For some in-house marketers, the challenge begins with just getting the rest of the organization to include search marketing in the planning stages of new products, instead of thinking about it at the end of the process, Duane Forrester, committee co-chair and manager of search marketing for SportsDirect, told ClickZ.
"Too many projects move forward in-house with SEM as an afterthought. Just yesterday I told a co-worker their planned timeline was a bust because my work wasn't considered up front and the product was not going live without it. Unfortunate and hard lesson for them to learn, but that's the way it breaks in-house," Forrester said.
Forrester said that he has it better than some, since his company is a Web-based publisher and he is therefore not fighting the Web and search battles at the same time, as some search marketers must do at companies that operate primarily offline or are just moving online.
SEMPO's initial steps in improving services for in-house marketers include the creation of an invitation-only online discussion board where in-house members can trade information and ideas. It also hosted the first of many planned in-person events for in-house marketers at Search Engine Strategies in San Jose in August. Turnout for that event surpassed 60 people, many representing Fortune 500 brands, Forrester said.
SEMPO's site offers members access to case studies, white papers, and discussion boards. SEMPO is also planning to conduct research specifically around in-house issues, as well as Webinars and training courses tailored to their needs, Williams said.
Access to a knowledge base on search marketing best practices is especially important for in-house marketers, since they often don't have the same access to other search marketers as agency-based search marketers do, Forrester said. It's also helpful to understand how to hire additional members of their search team, and what skill sets to look for that will likely migrate to search marketing well, he said.
"I already have two others in my office reading through white-papers and looking for time to sit in on Webinars. The goal is to spread the knowledge," Forrester said. "Call it 'Bus Protection': if I get hit by a bus tomorrow, the knowledge goes with me, leaving the company struggling for a period. Building the team through accessible knowledge bases, white papers and Webinars protects the company's future. Search marketing is a long-term endeavor, so the training will always pay off."

To recreate a silk blazer that was dull and lifeless.
i used RIT Dye color remover and soaked the blazer for about an hour and half to remove almost all of the color. Then dyed it with RIT ORANGE SUNSHINE . Let it dry. Cut the sleeves off. Cut new sleeves out of silk chiffon fabric ( to be able to say 100% silk blazer) and changed the buttons. Then did a french seam on remaining strip of fabric in order to add the scarf.

Admired for centuries, Kanzashi originated in Japan - worn by Maiko (Geisha in training). The Maiko would wear specific Kanzashi dependent on the season or event - for example, they certainly would have worn cherry blossoms during the Cherry Blossom Festival.
Geisha themselves wore them much less often, if at all.
In this tutorial I will show you how to make one of the basic shapes, and how this can be expanded to suit your whims.
Apologies for some of the rubbish images. My camera is broken, but I badly need some new scissors! :)

Appointments: America is a country of 320 million people, most of them holding to traditional values. Yet President Obama keeps mining the fringes for his hires. Does he have any friends who aren't crackpots?
Seriously. The president keeps saying he champions the middle class and its values. But his choices of people to help him run the country are the most extreme in U.S. history, and his second-term nominations are more radical than the first.
No sooner had even some Senate Democrats joined Republicans in voting down a cop killer-coddler for civil rights chief, Debo Adegbile, than Obama sent up a 2nd Amendment-basher for U.S. Surgeon General. Dr. Vivek Murthy advocates doctors asking patients if they keep guns in the home, a shocking invasion of privacy.
Murthy may also have a rocky path ahead of him, but other extreme-left nominees are getting confirmed.
Last year, Obama tapped former Congressional Black Caucus chief Mel Watt as, of all things, head of the federal agency regulating Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which together underwrite 90% of all new-home loans. Republicans blocked his confirmation. But thanks to Democrats invoking the "nuclear option" and ending the filibuster, one of the most radical lawmakers in Congress is now effectively running America's mortgage industry.
Meanwhile, radical racialist Tom Perez runs the Labor Department, where he's threatening to sue employers who don't hire minority felons, just like he sued bankers who didn't make prime loans to un-creditworthy minority borrowers when he was civil rights chief.
You have to be a Kremlinologist to keep track of all the communist-sympathizing cronies orbiting this White House. Obama's previous appointees include:
Valerie Jarrett, his closest White House adviser, whose father-in-law worked closely with Obama mentor and Communist Party leader Frank Marshall Davis in a number of front groups during the Cold War.
David Axelrod, Obama's political aide, whose mother worked for a communist organ in New York and whose mentor was Soviet agent David Canter.
Van Jones, an admitted communist hired by Jarrett as Obama's green jobs czar.
Anita Dunn, former White House communications director and Obama's 2012 foreign policy debate coach, who listed communist dictator and mass murderer Mao Zedong as one of her two favorite philosophers whom "I turn to most" when questions arise.
Cass Sunstein, Obama's regulatory czar who wrote a socialist "bill of rights" and who advocates redistributing wealth through climate-change policy.
Samantha Power, ambassador to the United Nations, a 9/11 apologist who advised the president to follow a "doctrine of mea culpa" and literally bow down to foreign leaders as atonement for America's "sins."
Anne-Marie Slaughter, former State Department policy chief, who advised the president to apologize for the War on Terror.
Rashad Hussein, Obama's Mideast envoy, who once defended a convicted terrorist (then got caught lying about it), and drafted the president's Cairo speech apologizing for the War on Terror.
Rose Gottemoeller, Obama's Soviet-sympathizing chief nuclear arms negotiator, who thinks America is a global "bully" and must unilaterally disarm for the sake of world peace.
John Trasvina, assistant HUD secretary for fair housing who once headed the radical Mexican-American Legal Defense and Education Fund, whose co-founder made racist statements about whites.
Cecilia Munoz, head of White House domestic policy who used to work for La Raza, the militant Latino group that advocates illegal immigrant rights.
Erica Groshen, Bureau of Labor Statistics chief who sends her children to Camp Kinderland, aka "Commie Camp," a communist-founded institution where kids during the Cold War sang Soviet anthems.
John Holdren, Obama's science czar, who's advised surrendering U.S. sovereignty to a "Planetary Regime" that will redistribute the West's wealth to underdeveloped countries and who once advocated "adding a sterilant to drinking water" to control population.
Harold Koh, former State Department general counsel who believes in "trans-nationalism" and sees nothing wrong with Shariah law in U.S. courts.
Tony West, associate attorney general who oversees Gitmo policy, even though he defended al-Qaida and Taliban terrorists including John Walker Lindh, who pleaded guilty to aiding the enemy and fighting U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
So what? In Washington, personnel are policy. These people make the rules we have to live by, from health care to home loans to homeland security.
And these radical political appointees hire other radicals at the bureaucratic levels, where they'll become entrenched as career federal employees.
In 2008, before Obama was nominated, we warned about his radical associations, including his ties to Davis — a hardened communist with a thick FBI file — at his Honolulu home. His defenders wrote off this Marxist indoctrination as youthful experimentation.
When we pointed out Obama spent 20 years in the pews of an America-bashing preacher, his apologists argued he was merely attending Rev. Jeremiah Wright's church to burnish his urban bona fides.
When we noted Obama launched his political career in the living room of an unrepentant communist terrorist, his defenders argued Bill Ayers had blossomed into a respected professor, that his days of cheering on the Vietcong and bombing the Pentagon were behind him.
We were told the parade of anti-American subversives Obama came in contact with throughout his life amounted to ancient history. But now we have this roster of radical appointments, a current record that's harder to explain away and which raises the indefeasible question of whether they're a reflection of himself.

The adventurer rode into the golden-hued glade, looking around. If the tribesman he had 'persuaded' to help him hadn't been lying, it should be here. Ah, there it is, he thought. A small pool, with no inlet or outlet. Dismounting, he looked into the crystal-clear water. He could see goldfish swimming around, and beneath them the bottom was covered with golden statues of men and women, mostly nude but some with a kilt or loincloth.
"I'm rich," he exulted. "That damn tribesman didn't die in vain!" He stripped off his clothes and armor, noting in passing that the ground was mounded, here and there, with weapons, armor, and other items, mostly rusted or rotted by time, and dove into the pool to begin gathering up his wealth.
Silence fell over the glade as the new statue settled onto the others littering the bottom.

Mountain Dew, Alli Sports' Changes To Dew Tour Format Leave Utah Out In The Cold
Utah Sports Commission CEO Jeff Robbins said that he is "disappointed but not discouraged" by the decision of Mountain Dew and NBC's Alli Sports to change the format of the Dew Tour and eliminate the stop in Utah, according to Amy Donaldson of the DESERET NEWS. The summer stop, held in September and sponsored by Toyota, "brought in $10-12 million each year, while the winter stop, held at Snowbasin, brought in about $6 million." Robbins said, "The aggregate is that we're losing about $75-80 million in economic impact and almost the same in media exposure" (DESERET NEWS, 4/17). In Salt Lake City, Bill Oram notes the "earliest the Dew Tour could return to Utah is 2014." Dew Tour GM Chris Prybylo said yesterday, "A lot has changed since we started the tour. So we were looking to create some bigger events, some more premium events versus the tour model." He added, "It certainly wasn't due to the lack of success of the (Utah) events at all. It was more just that the Utah structure didn't fit at this time" (SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, 4/17). Also in Salt Lake City, Kurt Kragthorpe writes while there seemingly was "nothing more the Sports Commission could have done to keep the Dew Tour, this is a setback." While many locals "had never heard of a lot of those sports until the dirt started piling up inside and outside of EnergySolutions Arena, this stuff worked here." Robbins and his staff "continually are looking for what's next in sports, and they've managed to stay ahead of the curve." Kragthorpe: "Undoubtedly, they will find replacements, and it's likely that the Dew Tour itself would recognize what it's missing and return to Utah in 2014." Losing the Dew Tour "will undo a lot of the good that the Sports Commission has done around here." That is "seemingly no fault of its own, just a function of NBC's decision and the vagaries of dealing with the action sports world" (SALT LAKE TRIBUNE, 4/17).
