SIKESTON - Thursday afternoon, a hard hitting Delta Lady Bobcats softball team visited the Sikeston Sports Complex to take on the Lady Bulldogs. The young Sikeston team held their own but a late inning rally came up a little short as the experienced Bobcat squad held on for a 8-5 victory.
After retiring three straight batters in the first, the Lady 'Dogs opened the bottom half of the inning with a golden chance to gain an early advantage. Emilie Martin drew a lead off walk and quickly advanced to third on two consecutive wild pitches by Delta's Kendra Burnett. However, Burnett recovered on the next two batters, striking them both out. A ground ball to the shortstop ended Sikeston early scoring threat.
"We came out a little slow," said Sikeston head coach Tiffany King, "There were a few plays early on that could have set the tone for us, we just could capitalize on our opportunities."
The Lady Bobcats wasted no time in the second as they began with two consecutive hits to lead off the inning. Amanda Drew of Delta then hit a frozen rope to left field but it was tracked down by Sikeston's Kayla Schearer, but in an attempt to double off a Delta runner at second proved costly as an errant throw both runners to advance. Delta used the Sikeston miscues to jump out to a 2-0 lead in the second.
The Lady Bulldogs looked to be shaken but found themselves with new life as Kaitlyn Turnbow entered the box. Turnbow, the only senior on the team, stepped up and delivered a monster shot down the right field line. An outstretched Delta right fielder laid out in an attempt to catch the ball but it was just out of her reach allowing Turnbow to go around the horn for an inside the park home-run.
"I really feel that Kaitlyn's home run was a huge turning point in the game for us," said King, "Once our team saw that we could compete with Delta's pitcher you could really see our confidence rise."
The Delta bats came around again in the third and fourth to give the Lady Bobcats a comfortable 6-1 lead heading into the sixth inning. However, the sixth inning is where the Lady Bulldogs made their stand, in hopes to rally past the tough Delta squad.
Schearer, who was 1-for-4 with a single, started the rally with a hard hit ground ball down third base which proved to be to hot for the defense to handle. Next up, Krystal Henson followed Schearer's led as she drew a walk.
With two on and nobody out Sydney Davied hit a routine ground ball to Delta's second basemen but a late bad hop caused the ball to go through the defenders legs allowing Sikeston to tack on a run. After a walk to Mary Deason, Turnbow delivered with an RBI hit that looked to be a fielder's choice, but on a bang bang play at the plate, the runner was called safe as the catcher couldn't hold on to the ball.
Sarah Hopson, 1-for-3 on the game, then got in on the action next delivering with a two-RBI double to the right-center field gap.
"I am extremely proud of the way the girls played in the sixth inning today," said King, "They were down five runs against a tough Delta squad but kept their heads up an really stepped it up."
Sikeston's rally pulled the Lady 'Dogs within one run of tying the Lady Bobcats 6-5 but a key play by Delta's pitcher Burnett brought Sikeston's momentum to an abrupt halt.
With nobody out and runners on second and third a check bunt attempt landed in fair territory. Burnett, quickly jumped on the ball to make a play, looking back to check the runner at third, she faked the throw to first to catch the third base runner in a hot box. The runner was called out at the plate but an alert Delta catcher didn't hesitate as she threw the ball down to third as the second base runner attempted to advance.
The heads up double play proved to be the deciding factor in the outcome of the game. The Delta squad tacked on two more insurance runs in the seventh to edge the Lady Bulldogs 8-5.
"We played really well today," said King, "Our defense was solid other than a few plays in the early innings."
"We are really starting to gel at the right time of the season," she added, "We have gained a lot of confidence here at the end of the season and with only one more game at home, we should be ready to make a run at districts."
Hopson once again went all seven innings allowing just two earned runs on 10 hits and three walks. She also had two strike outs.
Henson went 1-for-2 with a single and two walks while Davied was 1-for-4 with a single and a RBI. Kelsie Cooper also tacked on a single going 1-for-3 in the game.
Delta was lead by pitcher Burnett who went all seven innings for the win, going 4-for-4 with two doubles and two singles to help her cause. Katie Brucker went 2-for-4 with two singles while Jodi Menz had 3-for-4 hitting with a sacrifice RBI. Amanda Seabaugh and Sarah Blattel both got in on the action, each going 1-for-3 with a single and a walk. Also Taylor Smith and Amanda Drew tacked on a hit respectively going 1-for-4.
Sikeston will have their final game of the season at home Monday when they host the Kennett Lady Indians. Opening pitch is scheduled to be released at 4 p.m.

How does Alm apply what he learned in the program to his work at Edward Jones? "Broadly speaking, the program refined my approach to 'question-based leadership,' a distinct advantage for an organization rooted in Peter-Drucker-style, responsibility-based management. Learning how to draw out the best thinking from a broad range of talented individuals encourages much better decision-making."
Alm also provided specific examples. "The timing of Anjan Thakor's Business Communication course was perfect for me. I used his communication framework in my final presentation for a new performance and recognition system for our 12,000 financial advisors.
"About 15 pages into my Q&A proposal, our managing partner stopped me. 'Looks great; go get 'em,' he said. It was a beautiful thing."
In addition, Alm credits program takeaways with his leadership team's effectiveness in restructuring his current division. "We're now more than a year into the new structure, and we're having good success."
"The process of going through the Executive MBA program was positive for my family in a number of ways. My wife was on board from the beginning, ready, willing, and able to carry the water for both of us when it came to personal responsibilities.
"I still remember my mother working on her master's and Ph.D. degrees when I was young – and how proud I was of her. Now, my three children have the same memory. We actually had study hours together."
Alm says the program delivered an equally strong professional return on investment. "My Executive MBA degree has given me a foundation for increasing the scope of my leadership and responsibility."

Nepal's Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal has said that his government is committed to establish a commission for investigating political killings that occurred during the struggle to overthrow the monarchy.
"The government is determined to establish the truth and reconciliation commission and a disappearance commission as a part of ensuring transitional justice and restoring social harmony and peace," Mr. Nepal said during the opening session of the UN General Assembly on Saturday.
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in Nepal, Richard Bennett, has blamed the political killings on communist insurgents. He has called on the UCPN (Maoist) to investigate several killings.
The Unified Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) has claimed responsibility for a bus bombing that killed 50 people but no one has been prosecuted, according to Mr. Bennet.
"The practice of protecting and promoting alleged human rights violators, whether they are Nepal Army officers or members of the UCPN-(M), must end," he writes in a letter.
"Like in every post-conflict situation, there are ups and downs and obstacles in the way. Managing the legacy of the violent past with justice and reconciliation and mainstreaming all the forces into a democratic order are major challenges before us," Nepal's leader said.
The Maoist revolt began in 1996 to end the monarchy and the conflict lasted for ten years.
In 2008, the three centuries old monarchy was abolished and Nepal became the world's youngest republic. Since then the Himalayan nation has been plagued by political instability.
The key challenges that remain are drafting of a new constitution and integration of the thousands of Maoist army personnel into the army.
"We have been doing our best to accomplish these tasks through dialogue, consultations and consensus among the major political parties in the country," the Nepalese PM said.
Recently, Karin Landgren, the special representative of the UN secretary-general for Nepal, reported that the peace process in the country had suffered setbacks

Fishing industry
The fishing industry includes any industry or activity concerned with taking, culturing, processing, preserving, storing, transporting, marketing or selling fish or fish products. It is defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization as including recreational, subsistence and commercial fishing, and the harvesting, processing, and marketing sectors.[2] The commercial activity is aimed at the delivery of fish and other seafood products for human consumption or as input factors in other industrial processes. Directly or indirectly, the livelihood of over 500 million people in developing countries depends on fisheries and aquaculture.[3]
There are three principal industry sectors:[4]
- The commercial sector: comprises enterprises and individuals associated with wild-catch or aquaculture resources and the various transformations of those resources into products for sale. It is also referred to as the "seafood industry", although non-food items such as pearls are included among its products.
- The traditional sector: comprises enterprises and individuals associated with fisheries resources from which aboriginal people derive products in accordance with their traditions.
- The recreational sector: comprises enterprises and individuals associated for the purpose of recreation, sport or sustenance with fisheries resources from which products are derived that are not for sale.
Commercial sector[edit]
The commercial sector of the fishing industry comprises the following chain:
- Commercial fishing and fish farming which produce the fish
- Fish processing which produce the fish products
- Marketing of the fish products
World production[edit]
Fish are harvested by commercial fishing and aquaculture.
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the world harvest in 2005 consisted of 93.3 million tonnes captured by commercial fishing in wild fisheries, plus 48.1 million tonnes produced by fish farms. In addition, 1.3 million tons of aquatic plants (seaweed etc.) were captured in wild fisheries and 14.8 million tons were produced by aquaculture.[5] The number of individual fish caught in the wild has been estimated at 0.97-2.7 trillion per year (not counting fish farms or marine invertebrates).[6]
Following is a table of the 2011 world fishing industry harvest in tonnes by capture and by aquaculture.[5]
Capture (ton) | Aquaculture (ton) | Total (ton) | |
Total | 94,574,113 | 83,729,313 | 178,303,426 |
Aquatic plant | 1,085,143 | 20,975,361 | 22,060,504 |
Aquatic animal | 93,488,970 | 62,753,952 | 156,202,922 |
Commercial fishing[edit]
The top producing countries were, in order, the People's Republic of China (excluding Hong Kong and Taiwan), Peru, Japan, the United States, Chile, Indonesia, Russia, India, Thailand, Norway and Iceland. Those countries accounted for more than half of the world's production; China alone accounted for a third of the world's production.
Fish farming[edit]
Aquaculture is the cultivation of aquatic organisms. Unlike fishing, aquaculture, also known as aquafarming, is the cultivation of aquatic populations under controlled conditions.[7] Mariculture refers to aquaculture practiced in marine environments. Particular kinds of aquaculture include algaculture (the production of kelp/seaweed and other algae); fish farming; shrimp farming, shellfish farming, and the growing of cultured pearls.
Fish farming involves raising fish commercially in tanks or enclosed pools, usually for food. Fish species raised by fish farms include carp, salmon, tilapia, catfish and cod. Increasing demands on wild fisheries by commercial fishing operations have caused widespread overfishing. Fish farming offers an alternative solution to the increasing market demand for fish and fish protein.
Fish processing[edit]
Fish processing is the processing of fish delivered by commercial fisheries and fish farms. The larger fish processing companies have their own fishing fleets and independent fisheries. The products of the industry are usually sold wholesale to grocery chains or to intermediaries.
Fish processing can be subdivided into two categories: fish handling (the initial processing of raw fish) and fish products manufacturing. Aspects of fish processing occur on fishing vessels, fish processing vessels, and at fish processing plants.
Another natural subdivision is into primary processing involved in the filleting and freezing of fresh fish for onward distribution to fresh fish retail and catering outlets, and the secondary processing that produces chilled, frozen and canned products for the retail and catering trades.[8]
Fish products[edit]
Fisheries are estimated to currently provide 16% of the world population's protein. The flesh of many fish are primarily valued as a source of food; there are many edible species of fish. Other marine life taken as food includes shellfish, crustaceans, sea cucumber, jellyfish and roe.
Fish and other marine life are also be used for many other uses: pearls and mother-of-pearl, sharkskin and rayskin. Sea horses, star fish, sea urchins and sea cucumber are used in traditional Chinese medicine. Tyrian purple is a pigment made from marine snails, sepia is a pigment made from the inky secretions of cuttlefish. Fish glue has long been valued for its use in all manner of products. Isinglass is used for the clarification of wine and beer. Fish emulsion is a fertilizer emulsion that is produced from the fluid remains of fish processed for fish oil and fish meal.
In the industry the term seafood products is often used instead of fish products.
Fish marketing[edit]
Fish markets are marketplace used for the trade in and sale of fish and other seafood. They can be dedicated to wholesale trade between fishermen and fish merchants, or to the sale of seafood to individual consumers, or to both. Retail fish markets, a type of wet market, often sell street food as well.
Most shrimp are sold frozen and are marketed in different categories.[9] The live food fish trade is a global system that links fishing communities with markets.
Traditional sector[edit]
The traditional fishing industry, or artisan fishing, are terms used to describe small scale commercial or subsistence fishing practises, particularly using traditional techniques such as rod and tackle, arrows and harpoons, throw nets and drag nets, etc. It does not usually cover the concept of fishing for sport, and might be used when talking about the pressures between large scale modern commercial fishing practises and traditional methods, or when aid programs are targeted specifically at fishing at or near subsistence levels.
Recreational sector[edit]
The recreational fishing industry consists of enterprises such as the manufacture and retailing of fishing tackle and apparel, the payment of license fees to regulatory authorities, fishing books and magazines, the design and building of recreational fishing boats, and the provision of accommodation, fishing boats for charter, and guided fishing adventures.
Lift nets in Cà Mau, Vietnam
Fly fishing in a river
International problems[edit]
The ocean covers 71% of the earth's surface and 80% of the value of exploited marine resources are attributed to the fishing industry. The fishing industry has provoked various international disputes as wild fish capture rose to a peak about the turn of the century, and has since started a gradual decline.[10] Iceland, Japan, and Portugal are the greatest consumers of seafood per capita in the world.
Problems in the Americas[edit]
Chile and Peru are countries with high fish consumption, and therefore had troubles regarding fish industry. In 1947, Chile and Peru first adopted the 200 nautical miles of Exclusive Economic Zone for their shore, and in 1982, UN formally adopted this term. In 2000s, Chile and Peru suffered serious fish crisis because of excessive fishing and lack of proper regulations, and now political power play in the area is rekindled.[11] From the late 1950s, offshore bottom trawlers began exploiting the deeper part, leading to a large catch increase and a strong decline in the underlying biomass. The stock collapsed to extremely low levels in the early 1990s and this is a well-known example of non-excludable, non-rivalrous public good in economics, causing free-rider problems.
Problems in Europe[edit]
Iceland is one of the largest consumers in the world and in 1972, a dispute occurred between UK and Iceland because of Iceland's announcement of Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) to reduce overfishing. This dispute is called the Cod War, direct confrontations between Icelandic patrol vessels and British warships. Nowadays in Europe in general, countries are searching for a way to recover fishing industry. Overfishing of EU fisheries is costing 3.2 billion euros a year and 100,000 jobs according to a report. So Europe is constantly looking for some collective actions to prevent overfishing.[12]
Problems in Asia[edit]
Japan, China and Korea are some of the greatest consumers of fish, and have some disputes over Exclusive Economic Zone. In 2011, due to a serious earthquake, the nuclear power facility in Fukushima was damaged. Ever since, huge amount of contaminated water leaked and is entering the oceans. Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco) admitted that around 300 tonnes of highly radioactive water had leaked from a storage tank on the site. In the Kuroshio Current, the sea near Fukushima, about 11 countries catch fish. Not only the surrounding countries such as Japan, Korea and China, but also the countries like Ukraine, Spain and Russia have boats in the Kuroshio Current. In September 2013, South Korea banned all fish imports from eight Japanese prefectures, concerning radioactive water leak from the Fukushima nuclear plant.[12]

Nikon parts supplier
After a few days looking around my home for the battery door for the D200 without the MB-D200, it was obvious that I needed to order a new one since I was never going to find the original which had been put safely away to never be found again. I wanted to use the camera without the MBD200 but needed the battery cover to do so. Well, the fun begins. I go to the mecca of all things for Nikon according to some, eBay. I just don't get good vibes from the merchants there since they want too much for the part and too much for shipping and handling. I go to the web and finally find a familiar name which I had bookmarked years ago, "Boca Photo". They show it in stock through their sister company , "Precision" , the price is right, the shipping is right and after all, the company was in my bookmarks for several years. Had to be good.
Get online, add the battery door to the cart, check out with my credit card and, bang, an immediate email showing the order had been processed and would be sent as soon as possible with an assurance that my card will not be charged until the part ships. Mind you, this was on 2/4/09. On 2/11/09 I send a very nice email asking about the order and wishing information about whether or not the part was in stock. No answer. Send another email on 2/12/09, no answer. Send another email on 2/13/09 and again no answer. Call the non toll free number, get an answering machine during business hours with the message that I can expect a return call---get no return call. Send another email on 2/16/09 asking for the courtesy of a return message. Finally on 2/17/09, email comes saying that the part shipped. No sorry it took so long, no sorry but we were too busy to answer your emails or phone calls, nothing but a confirmation that after 2 weeks, a part had been finally sent. I do not have the part yet, almost don't care if I get the part but do not want to go through this with this merchant again. I went to resellers ratings and this firm has a 3.75 rating mainly for not paying attention to customers and slow shipping. I think they are honest and will finally send the merchandise but their customer service sucks. Mel __________________

Re: Nikon parts supplier
Quite frankly, I put it in one of those clear plastic compact flash holders and was going to put it in the grip and just forgot. This new one will immediately go into the grip.

Re: Nikon parts supplier
FYI, I had the same issue with the used D80 that I bought with a battery grip. The original owner had lost the battery door, and I needed to replace it to use it without the grip. The interesting thing is, a couple of ebay sellers had them on sale for $16.99 with free shipping. That seemed high to me for a piece of plastic that actually costs a few cents to make. I phoned Nikon's USA service center, and they told me that the parts were $3.69 plus $3.50 shipping. So I bought two of them, directly from Nikon, figuring that at that price, if I broke one when installing/removing it to put the grip on, it would be good to have a spare.
Moral of the story, Ebay sellers wanted $17 for one of them, Nikon themselves charged me $11 for two of them. |

Re: Nikon parts supplier
I generally try to order from Nikon but lately, the hassle of finding the part number, the phone number, and then calling seems to be more than I want to do. But your point is very well taken since I also have found gigantic markups on parts when they go to eBay. How about the 10 pin covers that can sell for as much as $5.00 per cap. Now this is capitalism at it's greatest. I try to stay away from ebay deals since I find much of the smaller purchases are not bargains because of the outrageous shipping costs or because of a whole bunch of counterfeiting.

Re: Nikon parts supplier
I have found a local shop I use. They can get any part for nikon (and for that matter any major brand) and it ussually only takes a couple of days to get here. They're happy to ring suppliers and find all the delivery info for you on the spot. The only time it has taken longer than a couple of days is when this bit your after is still on the boat from Japan (or China these days). Not only that, there service is great and they try and match your new purchases with your current (and hoped for) future purchases. What about for older and out of production 2nd hand gear. Again a good local store ussually has a range of 2nd hand bits and bobs. I suggest that you leave the online stores and the big department stores and go back to supporting the small shop owners that know what their doing and able to help you. For me I will stay using the local photoshop. It would be interesting to know what other people think about service and prices at the specilist cammera shop verse the online or large department stores. |

Re: Nikon parts supplier
brucky, that's a very good idea, IF you have access to such a photo/camera shop. Sadly, most have been pushed out of the way because of the cut-rate deals from mass marketing stores. In SW Florida, I have to travel over 100 miles to Tampa to find a decent camera store. In my film days, decades ago there were two first-rate camera shops, carrying everything you needed. Both are gone.
Even the chain's like Ritz and Wolfe, fail to keep stock. We have a very good Ritz in Naples, but they never seem to carry what I am looking for. They really cater to the needs of consumer photographers as opposed to the pro-sumers and pro needs. They are very willing to order something, but at that point, if it is a $1000 lens it is much cheaper and faster for me to order on-line from B&H or Adorama and not tax. For consumabele, like paper na dink, mass merchandizers are always abetter price. Sad but true... Jeff __________________

Staying 'Coolada' in the Summer
I do not add the rum, but even without the alcohol it's a sweet, icy, refreshing drink ; ) Prefect for the hot weather we've been having lately!
This lovely little table linen is one of four place mats I found at a thrift store in Boothbay. Each one has a different flower....all for only $2.00!
fine foods,

WASHINGTON (AP) - The first phase of Metro's silver Line was expected to open this December, but now officials expect that launch date to be pushed back to January.
Sam Carnaggio, director of the Dulles Corridor Project at the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, says construction work is 94 percent complete.
The contractor is expected to finish by the end of September, so Carnaggio tells WTOP-FM (http://bit.ly/1a5H9Zk) that the project will be turned over to Metro by October. He says Metro will then take at least 90 days to independently test the trains and tracks and hire staff.
Work on the second phase, which will extend Metrorail into Loudoun County past Dulles Airport, is expected to begin in July and be complete in five years.

The model is completely wrong though. Earmarks are what are used by congressional leaders to bribe lower level congressmen to vote for their bills. Posted January 26, 2010 8:51 PM
Matt writes:
Agreed, I don't understand how that reduces spending. If earmarks allow more statist laws to be passed then i don't see how allowing more earmarks reduces spending. Take the bailout, if earmarks were illegal it wouldn't have passed, had all earmarks been illegal, gov't spending would be lower. Posted January 27, 2010 12:03 AM

Also government is an awkward world of economics, in that in earmarks, the more earmarks you get, generally the more the other guy gets. Posted January 27, 2010 12:06 AM

Congress may simply use all available tools to maximize total spending. Even after securing reelection they might opt to seek prestige projects, this model seems plausible though. Also, where is the error that warrants the (sic) ? Posted January 27, 2010 5:14 AM

I would try this: 1. Earmark projects are those that the strongest constituent groups at very local levels desire most. 2. Other government spending is actually the larger budget items, willed upon the electorate by central planning initiatives. 3. Therefore, spending on earmarks first will satisfy the electorate and guarantee that large, centrally planned initiatives are left both unsupported and unfunded. Posted February 4, 2010 12:57 AM

Graham leads VCU past Wofford, 72-57
RICHMOND, Va. (AP)
A dozen games into his college career, JeQuan Lewis is feeling more comfortable by the day.
The freshman guard at VCU scored 14 of his 16 points in the second half Tuesday night, helping the Rams overcome a lackluster performance in a 72-57 victory against Wofford.
''I was just trying to push it offensively because that's what we do,'' Lewis said after making 5 of 8 shots and adding four steals. ''If they don't stop me, I just keep going until somebody stops me.''
Lewis' biggest play came after the Terriers closed to within 64-56, a slicing drive that left his defender out of the play and caused the sellout crowd at the Seigel Center to gasp with delight. When he laid it in, the Terriers were finished.
''We had a shot, a couple of opportunities to make it interesting,'' Wofford coach Mike Young said. ''You can have things right where you want it and the freshman point guard blows you up off the bounce.''
Rams coach Shaka Smart said he's not surprised by how quickly Lewis has become a go-to scorer.
''He's playing better than anyone on our team offensively,'' Smart said. ''I don't think we ran a play for him in the second half. He was just pushing the ball. ... JeQuan really put their defense back on their heels.''
And, in stretches, put the Rams on his back.
''He can flat tear the nets off of it from deep,'' Young said.
Treveon Graham scored 15 of his 18 points in the first half for VCU (9-3), but on a night when Juvonte Reddic ''was not into it,'' according to Smart, the Rams needed Lewis' contributions in a 14-5 second-half run that gave them command.
Reddic, VCU's leading rebounder, averaging 7.4 per game, and second-leading scorer, averaging 12.4 points per game, finished with four points and five rebounds.
The Rams had seen their lead cut to 40-35.
Karl Cochran scored the first five points of the second half to get the Terriers within 38-33 and 40-35, but Rob Brandenberg's driving basket sparked the 14-5 surge. Lewis added four points, Graham hit three free throws and Melvin Johnson finished it off with a 3-pointer from the top of the key with 10:36 to go.
Cochran led the Terriers (3-7) with 17 points, but Wofford turned the ball over 20 times against VCU's steady pressure, and the Rams turned the takeaways into 18 points. The Terriers also were outscored 25-10 from the free throw line as VCU attempted 34 free throws and the Terriers just 14.
Wofford closed to 64-56 with about three minutes to go, but Lewis scored on a drive again, pushing the margin back into double figures, and the Rams held on to remain unbeaten in six home games this season.
Graham scored 11 as VCU raced out to a 21-11 lead, and after the Terriers closed to within 26-20, the Rams got 3-pointers from Brandenberg and Jarred Guest in a 9-0 bust that boosted their lead to 35-20.
The Terriers closed the half on an 8-3 run to get within 38-28 at halftime.

Congratulations goes to MSGC staff members Kathleen Madland, Linda McBrayer, and Jill Payne for receiving the Director's Award for Achievement. Ms. Madland received an individual award for redesigning and maintaining the MSGC website. Ms. Madland also led a project to create Recap Reports, which are designed to convey complex sentencing data into an intuitive and easy-to-understand format. Ms. McBrayer and Ms. Payne received a team award for the development and delivery of the new Electronic Worksheet System, a program that results in more accurate felony sentencing and more efficient use of public resources.
The annual 2015 MSGC Report to the Legislature is now available. The report contains two required reports: modifications to the Guidelines, and use of firearms as reported by Minnesota's County Attorneys. The report also highlights topics that may be of interest to the legislature: sentencing and departure trends; a special review of controlled substance departures; and updates on Commission and staff activities.
The 2013 Sentencing Practices: Annual Summary Statistics for Felony Offenders is now available. This report provides an overview of felony sentencing practices including demographics, trends, incarceration rates, departures, and more. There were 15,318 felony offenders sentenced in 2013; an increase of 0.7 percent from the number sentenced in 2012. The number of offenders sentenced decreased for Person, Property, and DWI offenses. For more information see the full report.
You're a click away from a quick, easy way to stay informed. "Email Signup" includes our quarterly newsletter, upcoming trainings, public hearing notices, and upcoming meetings; you decide which topic(s) interest you. "Data requests" go directly to our research staff who will provide you with detailed sentencing information. Submit a general inquiry or Guidelines question via the "Contact Us" icon. Help is just a click away.
When departing from the presumptive sentence, the court must disclose the reasons for departure to MSGC within 15 days after sentencing.
During Legislative session, MSGC produces fiscal notes for multiple bills, which is an integral part of the decision-making process.

NWAR: Trench Warfare
Detective Nwar gets his hands dirty for a political campaign.

Developed by Armor Games, programmed/art'd by jmtb02
Music by Thegmann, Epitome, and Kim
Arrow Keys/WASD to move, mouse to aim and fire
It was entertaining
I just wish you could advance past stage 15 but thats my opinion
Too easy.
I rolled a joint while watching the last level of the game unfold before me... not really rewarding as a game :P Pretty nice style and gameplay, but make it harder.
Completed It
Like the game, but found it to be quite repetitive. More upgrades could be added, and the ending game victory wasn't as much satisfying as I hoped. It was however, a real great time waster. Wasted about half an hour on this.
Good game
Pretty good game. I thought it was a little too hard though, and unbalanced in difficulty. Some levels were cakewalks but then it would jump up really high in difficulty, for example level 3 and 14. I think navigating the elevators could of been easier.
For example maybe instead of just having up spam our poor mouse buttons as fast as we can (my mouse has a painted rust color to it, and I just noticed I cleared a spot on it I guess by pressing it so much :-( ), maybe our guy constantly firing all the time leaving us more ready to just focus on the strategy of the game and moving elevators. Moving the elevators as it is is kind of a little too sluggish for me, and it comes at so much of a penalty because you aren't shooting.
But I hope we see a sequel some day. With some tweaking this game could easily be a 10/10.
I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO DO ANYTHING ONCE I GOT FULL LASERS! THE ONLY TIME ANY MONSTERS GOT ON THE SCREEN WAS FOR ABOUT 2 OR 3 SECONDS! Of course I didn't get full lasers untill wave 13 or 14 but MAN THAT WAS AWESOME! MY COMPUTER LOOKED LIKE IT WAS HAVIN' A SEIZURE WHILE IT INGESTED A KEG OF CAFFINE! Anyways, excellent game sir. I agree that it brings a new view to the tower defense type games. Plus I like how you could control yourself too, and that you didn't have any health you just had to protect your elevators. I would always stay with my weakest elevator.

It was just another ordinary day for Lima. Though unexpectedly, the routine chore of picking apples, will send Lima into a dangerous journey.
Labyrinthica: The Quest of Lima is a single-player, melee focused action game. Labyrinthica has similarities to rogue games, but is based on real-time action.
You move Lima with the keyboard and aim with the mouse. Unlike similar games, you will need to fight monsters face to face rather than shoot them from a safe distance. You use both your weapon and shield in battle, though using a sword is not always the only way to harm enemies! Potions should be used wisely. Drinking that green potion might prove fatal. It might be poison! And throwing that bronze potion on the boar creature might make it go berserk. Potion colors are randomly assigned to each type. You will have to discover on your own what each potion color does. Labyrinthica awaits to test your wits and reflexes.
"I'm an idiot", "Wonder" and more from Pompi Pompi.

Sep 20, 2009 NewsYea, I think you should try it.
But I am the developer, so take that into consideration. ;)
I just have to tell you that you will probably need to update your DirectX9 from microsoft.
Because DirectX9 got a new version 3 or 4 times a year.
Well, you are right that it is not a revolutionary, genre defining game.
But what I think is special is the focus on melee combat.
While most games of this type have you shoot projectiles with your mouse.
This game have you fight with a closed range weapon, and have a special part for the shield in combat.
In the first ten levels, most of the enemies either damage you with projectile or with touch attack.
Your shield has a part in the melee combat, but it is also the only thing that can protect you from projectiles, and even deflect them, making them harmful for the enemies.
In the next ten levels, there will also be enemies that attack with a touch, but there will also going to be enemies with their own weapons and shields.
So fighting with armed enemies will be different than fighting with touch attack enemies.
In addition, you can hold your shield above your head, which from level 11, will have a part both in melee combat and in protecting yourself from arch course projectiles.
There will probably be more "special" things to come, but I cannot promise anything.
Bottom line, I think I have some original ideas going on this game, like there are original ideas in a lot of other games.
That is what I meant by the game being special.
I am also open for critiques.
So, correct me if I am wrong. :)
Thank you for your kind comments and support. :)
And yes, I inted on selling this game.

The rudiments of global governance have been instituted in the course of the past 50 years. At the same time, however, interdependences among the world's societies and between humankind and the biosphere began to develop at a much faster pace.
Present global governance, which has remained founded on relations among sovereign states, is not equipped to take up the challenges of today's world and in addition, suffers from lack of legitimacy. A new architecture is necessary. It should be founded on principles applicable to every level of governance and on the thinking and innovations that have appeared over the years and in the greatest variety of domains.
These include six dimensions:- the development of ethical and constitutional foundations for legitimate governance;- the establishment of a global community;- the definition of common foundations for the management of the different categories of goods;- the regulation of trade and sharing, and of the pace of evolution;- the organization of relations among the different levels of governance and among actors;- the renewal of discussion, decision-making, auditing, and management methods.

COLUMBIA — Since Big 12 play started in January, Missouri PA announcer Aric Brewer has introduced the Missouri student section as a member of the Tigers' starting line-up.
When he introduces them, he calls them the "sixth man."
Missouri coach Frank Haith and several players have praised the fans for their support, especially after the 74-71 win on Feb. 4 against Kansas when they were so loud that television viewers of the game could barely hear a whistle being blown.
"They won the game for us," senior forward Steve Moore said.
Haith agreed, saying he didn't think Missouri could have won without the fans' energy.
Turns out the Missouri fans don't just bring that noise and energy for their biggest rival.
In Saturday's 72-57 win against No. 6 Baylor, another sell-out crowd turned up at Mizzou Arena to cheer on the Tigers. This time it was so loud that Baylor assistant coach Grant McCasland was holding up a whiteboard with the offensive play call rather than trying to yell loud enough for all of his players to hear.
"We were just trying to make sure we emphasized getting the ball where we wanted it to be," Baylor coach Scott Drew said.
Many times during the game, the ball was not where the Bears wanted it to be. The Bears had trouble getting the ball to their forwards and came up empty on several possessions.
"The crowd does ignite us, we can't deny that, especially on defense," junior guard Michael Dixon said. "We're gonna play defense no matter what, but you can say that the crowd ignites us."
Missouri didn't struggle much on offense, especially during a five minute stretch in the second half when the Tigers went on 17-5 run. Four different players hit three-pointers during that run, and Moore had an explosive dunk on a pass from Marcus Denmon that sent the crowd into its loudest frenzy of the day, complete with chants of "STEEEVE."
"When Missouri is on, there is nobody in the country as good as them offensively," Drew said. "Period."
Phil Pressey led the Tigers with 19 points. Dixon and Denmon each had 16 points and 6 assists.
It was a milestone day for Denmon, who passed Jon Sundvold for 10th place on the Missouri career scoring list.
Saturday's win also marks the 100th win for Denmon and fellow four-year seniors Moore and Kim English. That mark ties them with Sundvold's 1983 senior class for the most wins in a four-year span at Missouri.
Missouri (23-2, 10-2) now has three wins this season against teams ranked in the top 10. It remains tied with Kansas for first place in the Big 12 and is 23-2 for the first time since the 1989-90 season.
"I think we've gotten a lot better since the beginning of the year, there's no question about that," Haith said. "I still think there's another level this team can get to, I really do."
Missouri's next game is against Oklahoma State at 8 p.m. Wednesday at Mizzou Arena.

Here's what others have to say...
Cute Dress
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
I love this dress. At first I worried it may be on the young side for me (I'm 48), but I wanted something pretty and comfortable. This dress is both and very flattering. Love it!
Super cute and fun!
My husband bought this for Mother's Day and he did good! The dress is very cute and with cups that go in the shelf bra (removable), it's the first shelf bra I actually won't wear a bra with! I'm an A cup, so most shelf bras just flatten me out and are unflattering, but with the cups I get some shape. I have another patterned dress in this fabric from prAna and it washes like a dream with no piling or fading (gentle cycle, hang to dry), so I anticipate the same with this.
Cute dress!
This is really cute and fun. I like the flirty, ruffled bottom - it has a really flattering shape. The shelf bra and removable cups are bonus. I would recommend this one for sure.

Drumroll please…
Posted by Melissa under Navel Gazing, Working on
[14] Comments
It's a girl!
The ultrasound was absolutely fascinating, which distracted me from the fact that I had to pee (and, no, I didn't make my 32 ounce quota in 15 minutes). Jason and I had a great time identifying parts, and it was a lot easier to see than we expected. Everything seemed to be in its proper place, though we'll have to wait for the radiologist's report to know for sure. They call if there's anything abnormal. The ultrasound technician said that she weighs about 1 pound, and her head measured at just over 2 inches in diameter.
Since it was after lunch, we got to see her punching and kicking a bunch. And those were the movements that I didn't feel! We also got to see her heart beating and the smart software calculated it at 155 bpm. It was a pretty cool show!
Now we have the hard task of picking out a name. Boy names are much easier for us. I'm glad we still have 20 weeks to decide!

September 17th, 2008 at 12:29 pmhow exciting! congrats on finding out what she's going to be
Jordan and I are thinking about the name "Claire" for a girl. It's fun to go through the books and web sites.
September 17th, 2008 at 12:49 pmSo exciting! Picking out names seems like fun, although I'm sure that listening to everyone else's opinions could get old. Good luck!
September 17th, 2008 at 1:01 pmFun! I'm glad she gave you a good show! Wow – 1lb already! Crazy! If ours ends up being a girl, we're going to have similar name issues
September 17th, 2008 at 3:10 pmOh yay! How exciting!! Congrats!
September 17th, 2008 at 4:46 pmAww lovely xx
September 17th, 2008 at 5:17 pmYAH! Congrats!
September 17th, 2008 at 6:40 pmYay! Very exciting.
September 17th, 2008 at 7:29 pmawww, girls are so fun. they have such cute clothes and accessories. much more variety than boys! i'm so happy for you. why don't you name her celine after your egg baby?
September 17th, 2008 at 10:06 pmAwww. Congratulations. I can't wait to see how stylish your kid is.
September 18th, 2008 at 7:17 amit's a girl! oh i'm so excited for you. that's what i'm hoping for, but i've got 7 more weeks to wait to find out. her herat rate is fast, that one. happy picking out names. we came to a decision so quickly and easily on a girl. but only decided on a boy's name last week. a lot of pressure coming up with names!
September 18th, 2008 at 10:32 amHow exciting! Congratulations!
And how funny…I think it would easier to come up with good girl names than good boy names. So just watch…I'll wind up having a boy, when that time comes!
September 20th, 2008 at 12:05 pmCongratulations Melissa (and Jason too)! I can't wait to hear what adorable name you have picked out for your daughter! How exciting! I agree with the other comments – girls have such cuter baby clothes!
September 24th, 2008 at 5:48 pmCongrats. Yeah another girl. Boys seem to be what everyone else is having.

Money woes in the spotlight at Steve Sundquist's "coffee hour"
February 18, 2009 at 5:45 pm | In West Seattle news, West Seattle school closure, West Seattle schools | 2 CommentsBy Charla Mustard-Foote
Reporting for West Seattle Blog
Seven people with a vital interest in West Seattle public schools got together with West Seattle's Seattle School Board rep Steve Sundquist at Coffee to a Tea in The Junction this morning, to discuss issues ranging from proposed new staggered school start times (to accommodate a dual busing schedule) to a redefinition of the statewide definition of Basic Education.
It was Sundquist's first "coffee hour" since the board's controversial vote on school closures/changes, but that wasn't the top issue on the mind of attendees — who had ties to Center School, Pathfinder, Garfield, and Washington Middle School — all were passionately concerned about the effects of state and local budget deficits on the content and quality of Seattle educational programs.
A major issue, crossing subject boundaries, was the point at which parents and others should get involved to make sure their input was heard. Since final school budget approval is scheduled for early June, Sundquist urged parents to express their opinions now, while the debate is ongoing. For example, at least two groups have proposals to redefine basic education: two bills, Senate Bill 5444 and House Bill 1410, are supported by the Seattle School Board. They redefine and fund basic education across schools. You can learn more about the bills at www.fundingwaschools.org. An alternative bill, SB5607, is the proposal of Washington State Education Associations and Unions, along with some other local school administrations. The definition of "basic education" determines education requirements for schools across the state. In times of drastic budgetary constraints, this is where the bar is set. Parents present were concerned that schools provide programs to attract and retain all students; limiting funding to "basics" at the expense of art and sports programs can sharply cut into attendance, even though the budgetary issues are obviously important. Issues of transportation and "bell times" are also in the forefront of school planning now. Using the same "yellow buses" for two trips per day can cut back on transportation costs. Determining start times for younger students, versus high school students is of critical interest to many parents who have to coordinate bus times with their own work transportation issues. Again, parents were urged to get involved and express opinions early in the process to get the most attention. Parents expressed concern about rumors that Deans, who identify at-risk students at Pathways High School, will be retained but teachers who work with the students may be laid off. Sundquist acknowledged that these are difficult trade-offs, but they may be required by the drop in available funding. An across-the-board concern was that these drastic cuts will mean that fewer kids graduate from high school — and, ultimately, their work opportunities will be limited by short-term budgetary constraints. Many critical school issues piggyback on other state financial concerns: Funding for the Metro bus system will impact availability of alternative transportation for high school students, school funding included in the Federal Stimulus package will affect money available to local schools, and, of course, decreases in city property and sales tax revenue have a negative impact on the overall money available to schools. The school board and administration has to consider all these variables as they plan upcoming budgets and they depend on input from parents to assist in this planning. Thursday, February 26, is the statewide PTA Focus and Lobbying day in Olympia. The revised basic Education definition will be a major topic of this annual event. To get more information, check out the state PTA web page and contact your local school's organization.

For example, at least two groups have proposals to redefine basic education: two bills, Senate Bill 5444 and House Bill 1410, are supported by the Seattle School Board.
Has anyone seen what these bills contain? They are horrendous! It's nothing short of a de-professionalization of teaching. If the bills pass, teachers will no longer make more money for becoming better educated themselves (got a Master's or Ph.D.? You'll make the same as the new guy fresh out of undergrad). Further, teachers will no longer be guaranteed any pay increase if they take continuing education credits. The bills also extend the provisional contract for new teachers to five years. It also ties certification to a student scores on standardized tests.
All of these things favor new, inexperienced teachers over experienced, veteran ones. If passed, these bills will greatly worsen the revolving door problem in public education, making teaching a stopover job for people moving on to do something else, instead of a professional vocation. I don't know about you, but I want my kids to go to a school with some continutiy among the staff and with teachers who really want to be there.
Essentially, these bills will create the same system that we ended up with in the community colleges. Thirty-some-odd years ago, the legislature passed a bill to allow "part-time" teachers at community colleges, so community members with experience in various fields could bring their wisdom to the college. The intent was to have 5-10% of the staff be part-timers. In Washington, that number is now close to 80%. Why? Because it's cheaper to hire part time teachers, even though most of them don't even last long enough to figure out what the hell they are doing before they move on. I taught at a Seattle community college for 2.5 years, and when I left, not a single other part-timer was left in my department that had been there when I was hired.
Is this the kind of system we what we want for our primary and secondary schools? If we don't do something about these bills, that's essentially what we are going to get.
So call your state legislators and tell them to VOTE NO ON HB1410 and SB5444. Spread the word. Visit OurVoiceWashingtonea.org for more information or call the Legislative hotline at 1-800-562-6000

perhaps the fact that he only had 7 people attend the coffee hour was linked to the fact that he held the coffee hour during work hours.

Characterization of buried inundated peat on seismic (Chirp) data, inferred from core information
Plets, Ruth, Dix, Justin, Bastos, Alex and Best, Angus (2007) Characterization of buried inundated peat on seismic (Chirp) data, inferred from core information. Archaeological Prospection, 14, (4), 1-12. (doi:10.1002/arp.318).

Peat horizons provide a wide range of critical environmental and direct archaeological information for both archaeologists and Quaternary geologists. At present, such data are typically obtained from terrestrial exposures or cores, and occasional offshore cores. These data can provide invaluable and detailed site-specific environmental information but require a relatively high spatial sampling strategy to provide more regional-scale information. Through a comparison of laboratory, in situ acoustic and sedimentary analyses, this paper presents evidence to suggest that peat buried in fine to medium grained, marine, siliciclastic sediments has an easily identifiable acoustic signature. The very low densities recorded by buried peats result in a distinct negative peak in the reflectivity series. Comparison of synthetic seismograms with in situ seismic data confirms that this negative peak can be easily identified from seismic profiles. Reanalysis of a decade of Chirp (sub-bottom) data, acquired from the Solent Estuary, indicates that possible extensive peat deposits, dating from the Late-glacial to early Holocene, can be traced at depth in this estuary using geophysical methods. The results of this study could be significant for future research into submerged landscape reconstructions.

When Leni's family hit the lottery, life got . . . well, strange. Leni's parents built a mansion fit for royalty; they enrolled their daughter in the fanciest, most expensive private school in Florida; and they even bought Leni a dolphin for her 12th birthday (she made them take it back). But all of that extravagant living has caught up with them and the lottery money is about to run out—except for the large trust fund Leni will inherit on her 18th birthday, now only a week away. Leni is prepared to give her parents the money until her sister, Natasha, confesses a shocking secret—one that threatens to destroy their entire family. Leni has been ordered to fix it, but how?

Peer Review Workshop: Evaluating the Structure of
Arguing Essays
Contributed by Mike
Goals: To help students conduct
a peer review on an argumentative essay
In a copy of one of your classmate's papers, use
the commenting feature in your word processing program to suggest ways in which
the writer could improve his or her arguing essay. Please read the draft through once before
responding to the following points.
Please address the following questions in your comments.
In what ways does the introduction used
by the writer prepare you for the argument? How effectively does it frame the
Is there an essay map in the
introduction? If so, suggest ways in which the essay map in the introduction
could be improved.
Suggest ways to make the framing of the
issue, review of alternative approaches, and the main point advanced by the
writer more consistent with each other.
Identify areas in the paper where brief
overviews would make the argument easier to follow.
Identify arguments that would run counter
to the writer's argument. Suggest ways
the writer could respond to and/or refute these arguments.
If the writer is advocating a particular
solution, suggest ways in which it could be described more clearly.
If the writer is advocating a particular
solution, suggest ways in which the implementation of that solution could be
described more clearly and completely.
Consider the writer's use of evidence. Is
it appropriate? Are there points at which additional evidence would be useful?
Where different evidence might be used more effectively?
How effective is the conclusion? Does it
do more than simply restate the content of the essay? How might it be improved?

From Vancouver; rarity;) I am an adventure enthusiast.
James has completed online and offline ID verification.
James was a great host. The location was convenient and quiet with a great view. His place was clean and had all amenities needed. James was helpful with local tips etc I would recommend anyone stay with him.
Great place to stay. Thanks for your hospitality Jim!
James was a great host - very friendly and a good guy. The apartment was clean and comfortable and has a great view from the back deck. I enjoyed my brief stay.
James' place is in a great spot to explore Vancouver - very close to the beach, restaurants, etc. He's a great, easy-going host who made us feel at home by sharing his space with us and giving us great tips on where to eat.
It was a lovely place Meeting James made it nicer still. My wife and I came in for the Vancouver Folk Festival. We really enjoyed being able to walk to and from Jericho Beach, where it's held, as well as another beach three blocks from the house. There are also all sorts of cool things to walk to in his part of the Kisilano neighborhood and it's near the express bus lines, so a breeze to get to and from downtown or the east side. We also really liked sitting and eating meals on the deck with its lovely view, and just generally hanging out. This is a nice spacious apartment, in a great location so we never felt crowded when we were home at the same times as James. In fact we had some fun conversations with him and he even suggested an interesting free software program to help me manage the work I'm doing. He couldn't have been a nicer host.(and then we had the place to ourselves when he went camping on the weekend). When he was around, he brought cereal, almond milk and fruit for our breakfast, and even had us try some honey a neighbor of his made and some jam that his mother made--both delicious. We usually stay with friends who had visiting relatives in that weekend, so we stayed with James. We'd stay with him again in a minute. In fact he made us feel like were staying with a friend. Definitely recommended.
I was just in town to see family, and was glad to find a place that was close by. Didn't get to spend a lot of time around James, but had a few laughs with him when I did. I'd use his place again in a heartbeat - It was clean, easy to find, and convenient to use. Overall a very positive experience for me.
James and his friends were very easy going, nice and friendly! They kept my place clean and tidy. communicate with them was very easy too. They respect all my house rules and neighborhood, update the situation of my home. it's so comfortable to let them stay in my apartment!! recommend to all host in airbnb and welcome back anytime for sure! ^^
