If your tournament is not listed on the www.ahsaa.com website, your school is not cleared by the AHSAA to participate in the tournament.
If you have a tournament listed on your schedule in any sport, the tournament must have all the participants listed and your principal must certify it before it becomes a sanctioned tournament. If it is still purple on your schedule, it is not complete.
There are over 200 tournaments listed on the "to be sanctioned" list in C2C that do not have the required information.
• If you are not hosting a tournament, please do not add it to your schedule. Only host schools should add the tournament(s) to their schedules. If you have added a tournament to your schedule and you are not the host school, please delete the tournament and have the host school add the tournament and list all the participants – this will add it back to your schedule.
• If you have put a tournament on your schedule as host, please make sure that all the participants are listed. If you have not added your participants, go to your schedule, double click the tournament you need to edit, click on the participant tab and add your opponents one at a time by clicking add.
• Finally, please make sure your principal has certified each tournament. If the principal has not certified your tournament, he/she must sign in to C2C with his/her login/password, go to certifications, competition certifications and certify the tournament.
Any tournament played without being sanctioned (participants added, principal certified) will result in a rule violation and an assessment of the applicable penalty.
The AHSAA will mandate the heat timeouts being called during the first dead ball period after the six-minute mark in each of the four quarters. These mandated timeouts will be used during the first three weeks of the season that begins Aug. 21 or 22. Other administrative football rules click here.

Federal News Radio
The National Archives and Records Administration is making historic documents accessible to everyone through social media.
"We need to meet the users where they are," said U.S. Archivist David Ferriero in an interview with Federal News Radio.
NARA now has blogs, a Facebook page, Twitter accounts and more than 7,000 photographs on Flickr, Ferriero said.
The agency also started a wiki for people to post what they have learned through doing research. NARA staff verifies that the information posted is accurate, Ferriero said.
"People can tell us what they've discovered so we can augment our records. The next person who's doing a similar kind of search will benefit from past researchers' experience," he said.
Social media is also improving both internal and external communication, Ferriero said.
"There's a fair amount of excitement about the interaction, the immediacy of the communication that has encouraged people," he said. "Visually, to be able to see our records used in various ways by the user community in ways that we never expected have been exciting kinds of opportunities for the staff."
The embrace of social media in every agency poses a records-keeping challenge for NARA. The agency has created the Electronic Records Archive to "ingest" electronic data, such as tweets or Facebook updates. Questions remain about what kinds of digital records would fall under ERA. For example, a blog post could become part of the official record, and so could the responses to the post.
For now, ERA is still a "work in progress," Ferriero said.

I want to come to Whistler for the upcoming Winter Season. When do you start hiring?
Whistler Blackcomb travels both around the world and within Canada conducting interviews and hiring employees for the upcoming winter season. For details, please see our Recruiting Initiatives » section. If you have missed an opportunity to interview in a city close to you we do host our Fall Fair and recruit year round in Whistler.
Every November we host a recruiting fair in Whistler, for more information click here for Job Fairs »
Seasonally, we hire employees into our Food & Beverage, Retail/Rental, Operations, Finance, Guest Services and Snow School divisions.
It is not uncommon for people to arrive in town without a job. In the Fall many businesses are hiring and it may take a little longer to get employment but eventually most do find something in Whistler. If you are looking for a server or bartender job Whistler Blackcomb does not have a lot of opportunities but we do host a meet and greet fair at the Bars which is scheduled for Oct. 25th in Whistler (more details to follow on our website here: Job Fairs » ). Alternatively, there are many hotels, restaurants and bars in town who will all be hiring for the winter season.
What else do I need to know about working at Whistler Blackcomb?
Come Prepared! Since Mother Nature is unpredictable, winter positions may not start until mid November and some do not commence until mid December. We recommend that you come to Whistler with approximately $3,000 (CDN) to ensure that you will be able to pay rent, damage deposit, groceries, phone, transportation and entertainment costs until you are gainfully employed.
How do I get from Vancouver Airport or Downtown to Whistler?
There are 4 bus companies that travel between Vancouver and Whistler. You can find their schedules and further information at:
I need to get my Social Insur ance Number (SIN) number to commence work – where should I go?
You must apply for your SIN before you start work, it is required to be employed in Canada. There are two Service Canada Offices where you can obtain your SIN. One in Vancouver and the other in Squamish (halfway between Vancouver and Whistler). The Vancouver office is bigger and more equipped to deal with high volume, it may be more efficient for you to get your number there while you are in Vancouver, also if you don't have a car the Squamish office will be harder to get to.
I need to set up a Canadian bank account, what banks are in Whistler?
Canada has a number of national banks, three have branches in Whistler so it'll be best to set up an account with one of them so if you need to go in and talk to someone you don't have to go down to Vancouver.
You will need to make an appointment at the Whistler banks to set up an account, so be prepared this may take a little while and you can not check in as an employee until you have your Canadian account details. You could also set up an account at a Vancouver branch of one of those banks if you are staying there for a day or two prior to arriving in Whistler. (Note that Scotiabank's branch is in an area of Whistler called Creekside, so less accessible as the other two which are in the Village)
What gym facilities are offered in Whistler?
There are a few gyms in Whistler you can obtain membership with. If you join Club Shred (see information below about this) when you start working you can receive a discount on passes at Meadow Park for more information visit their website:
You can also check out some of our other gyms in town:
What kind of shops and facilities are in Whistler?
Whistler offers a lot to its locals – from Health Care with medical clinics and a hospital to hair salons, clothing stores, restaurants, night clubs, yoga studios and grocery stores. You can find information about what is here on:
Where can I purchase second hand items including household items?
How can I find a hostel in Vancouver or Whistler when I get there?
It's a good idea to make reservations in advance especially at the hostels.
I need to buy new ski/ snowboard gear when I arrive in Canada where is the best place?
As a Whistler Blackcomb staff member you will be entitled to discounts at the stores that are owned by the company (including Showcase Snowboards and Can-Ski). See second FAQ Tab for details on staff discounts. There will also be Staff Sales at the beginning of the season at those stores and more information will be available on those closer to the time through at the stores, our internal employee newsletter (The Messenger) or via posters that will be put up in Staff Housing and your workplaces. List of WB Retail Shops »
What are some of the perks I'll receive as an employee? (May vary depending on what you are hired into.)
Seasons Pass
Club Shred
Winter Rentals
Food & Beverage
Snow School
You will learn more about these perks at your First Season Orientation. And we hope to see you soon!
I'm not from Canada. What do I need to do to work at Whistler Blackcomb?
In order to be legally entitled to work in Canada, you will need the following:
I'm not from Canada. How do I obtain a work permit?
To apply for your Canadian Work Permit, you must contact the Canadian Embassy or Consulate in your country. For more information on which countries qualifies please review the IEC list (International Experience Canada). Please remember that the application process can take several months.
In certain countries, there are a few agencies that assist people in applying for a work permit: BUNAC » and SWAP ».
I am applying for my work permit and have been told that I need a letter of offer to obtain the permit. Can Whistler Blackcomb do this for me?
Whistler Blackcomb CANNOT give letters of offer to foreign workers who require such an offer to apply for their permit to come to Canada. You must apply for a Working Holiday Permit/Visa. This permit/visa does not require you to have arranged employment before entering Canada.
In order to supply a letter of offer to a potential foreign employee, Whistler/Blackcomb has to prove to Canadian Immigration that we are unable to fill that position with any Canadian citizen or resident. Whistler/Blackcomb is otherwise seen as taking employment/ work away from Canadians, and this is against Canadian Immigration policy.
Do I need Traveling Insurance?
If you are travelling overseas, you shouldn't even think twice about getting travel insurance. Although it is not mandatory, Whistler Blackcomb STRONGLY recommends you set something up before coming. If you get sick or hurt, you won't want to be without it! Check out World Nomads Insurance as an option »
If I'm offered a position with Whistler Blackcomb, what will I need to bring?
If I'm offered a position with Whistler Blackcomb, what will I need to bring?
Depending on what position you are offered you might require more or less identification
Does everyone need a Criminal Record Check?
Full Time, Part Time and some Volunteers are required to provide a Criminal Record Check.
How can I find housing (if I am not registered or planning on staying in Staff Housing) and information about what is going on in Whistler once I get here?
Our local paper is called The Pique, a new edition comes out every Thursday. It has a lot of information from Local News to Classifieds ads and Events in town, check it out online at:
I am booked into Staff Housing, where do I go to check in?
If you are arriving to Whistler by Greyhound or Pacific Coach Lines, make sure you get off the bus at the Whistler Village Loop. There is a taxi stand there (as well as a Visitor Information Centre) From there you can take a taxi up to Glacier Lane Staff Housing – this will cost around $10.
You will be going to HOUSE front desk at Building 1 – 4802 Glacier Lane, Whistler.
I want to get a Mobile Phone (or cell phone as we call them in Canada), where should I go to get one?
I need to set up internet in my staff housing unit, who provides service?
HOUSE has an agreement with Base Wireless – you can ask about this at check in for specific rates.
How can I find out more information about Whistler Blackcomb Staff Housing?
Can my partner and I share a room within staff housing?
Yes, When you receive your bed offer from HOUSE there will be an email address that you can send requests to.
Can I request my friends to be in my room? Can I request other friends to be in the room next to ours?
Yes, you can request who you want to live with, in whatever location (Glacier, Brio or Westside) along with room setup. When you receive your bed offer from HOUSE there will be an email address that you can send requests to.
What is the cost difference to share a room or request a private?
For the 14/15 winter rates range from $333.60/month for a shared room to $567/month for a single room with other options in between.
Does everyone in staff housing who requests a private room receive one?
In a perfect world yes but due demand no. We try our best and will always try to make your second request happen.
What kitchen utensils are provided by staff housing?
Basics are provided (including kettle, toaster) and what has been left in the unit by previous tenants. There may not be specific things that you want, that you may have to purchase. There is a second hand store in Whistler that is really useful for getting kitchen items. You can also get new things from stores in town.
Can we have guests stay with us? If so for how long?
Yes you can, for 3 days. Just make sure you confirm with your roommates first that it is ok and that you register them at the HOUSE front desk.
Can I have more than one guest stay with me?
No due to apartment size only 1 guest can stay at a time for a max of 3 days.
Do I need to provide linen?
HOUSE will provide you with a free linen package to use for the season that includes a mattress cover, sheet, fleece blanket, pillow, pillow case and a towel. Some residents like to by a quilt (Comforter, doona, duvet etc…) to make their bed extra cozy.
When do I start paying rent?
You start paying on the day that you move in, you will be required to pay damage deposit (which is the equivalent of a half a month of rent) and 1 months' rent when filling out HOUSE application when you get the bed offer
When can I move in?
At any point after you get the bed offer but most people move in a week prior to their start date at work.
When do I need to move out?

Can I park my car up there if I buy one? How much will that cost?
Yes we have parking at all 3 locations for $25/month or save and buy for that season at the cost of $100
What is the difference between the different staff housing locations?
There are 3 different Staffing Housing locations, Glacier Park, Brio and Westside.
Glacier Park has 7 buildings (5 are for Whistler Blackcomb Staff) and therefore the most residents at approximately 700. Its location is on Blackcomb Mountain, which is the only staff residence that is ski in/ski out, awesome on a powder day as you have quick access to enjoy it. It is located up "staff hill" which is 200m up from the Village. There is a Whistler Public transit bus that services Glacier staff housing and the schedule varies on the time of year, there is a charge. See below for more information on buses.
In the winter to get to Glacier from the Village you can take the bus, a taxi (rate would be approximately $8 from the village) and also Excalibur Gondola (during its hours of operation which vary through the winter season). In the summer you can walk up staff hill, it is good exercise we promise!
Many of the residents at Glacier are first year, first season staff and due the number staff living there it is very social, there are House Advisors on each floor and they plan events weekly, there are common lounges in each building where residents can hang out also some of the units use common kitchens or ovens so there is plenty of opportunity to interact and meet people. Glacier offers shared and private rooms depending on availability.
Brio (pronounced 'bree – O') Residence is 1 kilometre south of Whistler Village just along the main road through town, Highway 99. You can walk to the Village (and the base of the ski/bike lifts) in approximately 15 minutes. Brio is only 1 building with about 140 residents. Similar to Glacier Park there are House Advisors on each floor of the building that plan events weekly and monthly. All units are self-contained with a full kitchen, bathroom and living room with 4 residents for each 2 bedroom apartment. Brio offers shared rooms only. There is a mixture of first season and return staff in this residence.
Westside Residence is 5.5 kms south of Whistler Village. It is 2kms south of Creekside base which was the original base of Whistler Mountain. Creekside has a gondola open in the winter to access skiing and riding as well as other amenities like a grocery store, bank, restaurants and pubs. Westside is serviced by public transit (see information below) you will have to pay for and the trip to the Village takes 20 minutes (plus walking to bus stop and waiting). Westside is only one building of approximately 140 residents, units are similar to Brio, all are self-contained with a full kitchen, bathroom, living room and either 1 or 2 bedrooms. Westside offers shared and private rooms. This residence tends to be quieter, with long term return staff and couples. If you have a job at Creekside based Snow School programs, Can Ski Creekside, Starbucks, Dusty's, Backside or Raven's Nest, this would be closer/shorter to access those locations.
What are the details on public transit in Whistler? How early/late do buses run, what is the cost? How frequently do these buses run?
For information on schedule and fare rates please refer to the Whistler Transit website http://www.transitbc.com/regions/whi/ as the rates can fluctuate and schedule change seasonally.
You can buy monthly or 6 month bus passes and if you decide to participate in the Whistler Blackcomb Staff deals program called Club Shred (www.facebook.com/clubshred) they sell some at a discounted rate. To give you an idea, a monthly unlimited pass is around $60.
How much would it cost if I wanted to catch a cab not a bus?
Taxi rates in Whistler are based on a rate/kilometer. For example from the Village to Glacier Park or Brio - $8, from the Village to Westside $18

Best Uses
I am disappointed with the color and may return it. I am trying to match the next room and the wall sample was perfect. What was shipped is very "pink". The sales staff has said it will turn brown over time. I am not sure and may return what I purchased
Best Uses
I was unaware of moisture maintenance (30% - 50%) prior to purchasing the product. If you do not keep the proper moisture (especially in the winter), the floor may gap btwn the seams, which will void the warranty.
Best Uses
It took me a couple of weekends to complete the work but it was well worth it. We absolutely love the floor. The color was rich and warm. As for the material there were only a few boards out of 750 sqft that couldn't be used. I installed the flooring on the entire main floor except the kitchen and entryway area. I received 3400lbs of flooring material shipped from Seattle. The material showed up with no problems or damage. I installed the flooring on top of a 15lb felt paper. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Service and delivery comments:
I had the flooring shipped to Alaska. It took about 5-6 weeks for the shipment to arrive. The shipment was undamaged. Even with the cost of shipping the material was still half the price of what I could buy it for in Anchorage.
Best Uses
The service at the store was very informative. Was told 7 to 10 days for delivery to store. had to wait 6 weeks.This is the only problem for the whole job. start to finish. In stalled 140 square feet. A very hard wood. Had to use a 18 gauge Powernailer to do the job. Took the advice from the salesman. Worked fine. No waste! I could not believe that 99 % of all the wood was fine. Pieces that were questionable was installed in the closet. I am going to install 620 square feet in my living room and dining room.
Best Uses
These are the most beautiful wood floors I have ever seen!! We are so happy with them!! The color is rich and beautiful. These floors are very durable. We have three dogs (ranging from 45-80 pounds). We still do not have a single scratch on the floor. We went from carpet to this. Such a drastic improvement. My husband installed the floors himself. Although, it was time consuming, he had do problems. It was easy to install. There was a good variation of long and short boards. They were all in perfect shape and there is no gaping or anything in our floor (meaning all boards were consistantly the same width/thickness, ect...). We couldn't be happier. We installed this in our living room, dining room, hallway. We plan to put it in our bedrooms later this year. We absolutely love these floors!! If we were to do it all over again, we would pick the exact same floor!
Best Uses
We couldn't be happier with the end results. We would recommend this product to all, it looks so beautiful and will last a lifetime.
Best Uses
Great flooring, we had it installed by Lumber Liquidators and could not be happier, great product and great install.
Best Uses
We were worried about this wood having too much variation and looking busy, which it does not. It looks beautiful. We also didn't want it to appear red and although our sample was a bit pink, the wood is gorgeous with a rich deeper color. We were told it would darken substantially. I just love it now whether it darkens or not, and the finish is so durable, we have a dog and she has not made one scratch with her nails yet. Perfect choice. We also had wanted the 5 inch wood planks but this is such a traditional look it will never go out of style.
Best Uses
We saw samples in store but were still very surprised at how much variation there was. A bit much. We bought 12 boxes. I figure we tossed almost a whole box because the wood pattern was not to our liking or the tongue was missing or there were scratches. We worked around these things and ended up having about a half box of good quality left after our job.

Q:I'm choosing between the Brazilian Cherry and this one, Brazillian redwood. I'm trying to match the existing floor iin the house i just purchased which has deep red/dark color, which i like. It has color variations too, which in the picture looks more like the Brazillian redwood. But when i went to the store and showed my the picture of my floor, the rep says it,s definitelya brazillian cherry. The sample floor they have in the store with redwood is more of brown. But i researched and saw pics that the redwood is more of the deep red im looking for to match my current floor. Can someone help me answer if the. Brazillian redwood is more of the red side than just plain darker brown, please. The sample wood they have in the store looks more brown and no hint of red...
1 answer
A:Brazilian Cherry can definitely have more browns. Suggest that you look at both online and see Customer Pictures.
Q:what sheen does the flooring have
1 answer
A:Our Bellawood floors are factory pre-finished with an aluminum oxide water-base urethane using a multi-step application process. (8) coats are applied to most domestic and exotic wood species and each coat is hard-cured using Ultraviolet (UV) light. Bellawood pre-finished flooring offers superior wear resistance and is backed by a limited 100-year warranty! (The exact formula is propietary information) The formula for the Bellawood finish is a custom mix that has a 50/50 gloss. The sheen you get is shinier than satin, but not as shiny as semi -gloss.
Q:What thickness of subflooring (over a crawl-space) is preferred for this product?
1 answer
A:You can find complete installation instructions on the product page by clicking on the specs tab and then clicking on - Installation Guide.pdf
Q:If I use this in a bathroom, how is its ability to resist dampness, wet feet, wet towels, etc
1 answer
A:Due to the excessive moisture present in a full bath we cannot recommend any of our solid natural flooring or laminate products for this application, I would suggest one of our vinyl Tranquility products. We have a 2mm peel and stick and now a 4mm click together product that can go in full bath areas or where moisture is a concern. Thank you for your inquiry.
Q:Do you offer shipping to my home?
1 answer
A:We will offer shipping to your home however, you would incur those shipping fees
Q:Can 3/4 inch Brazilian Redwood be installed over a radiant heat system?
1 answer
A:Posted on the 101
Q:We bought the Bellawood kit that includes a cleaner we were told to only use once a month otherwise it would start to leave a build up on the floor. What is recommended for they day-to-day cleaning of the floor?
1 answer
A:Please call our Customer Care Dept. @ (800) 366-4204 for a detailed answer to your question.
Q:What is the durability of this product compared to other exotics? Does it shrink/expand more or less?
1 answer
A:The durability of our Bellawood is higher than any other flooring in the industry which is why we offer a 50 year wear warranty. The expansion and contraction of a floor is based on temparture and humidity in the home. The ideal conditions are between 60 -80 degrees and 30-50% humidity. If these conditions are maintained the floor will stay dormant and not move.

DOCKSTADER, TOD: Aerial #3
Quantity in Basket:none
The third in the set for those of you who have been collecting from the beginning. This CD is also, in my opinion, the one to have if you only have one. Made from between-channel radio sounds collected over many years, then assembled and processed over more, these are complex, deep and rather human pieces, neither synthesised nor acoustic - musique concrete without the concrete; sounds no one has made, plucked from nowhere; unwanted interference that exists only as cross-contamination, cosmological noise or leakage: Sternklang - sounds that only radios can hear....The entire 240 minute 3 CD work is, in a strangely fractal way, wholly represented in this final volume, so if you haven't dipped in yet, now is the time.

Black cats have never had it easy. In fact, they have long been considered bad luck and unfairly linked to witchcraft for centuries. With it being Friday the 13th, we think it's the perfect time to put some common assumptions about black cats to the test.
Black Cats Bring Bad Luck
False. In reality the color of a cat's coat has nothing to do with good or bad luck. And just for the record, in many other cultures, a black cat is a prized pet. In places like Japan and the British Isles, they're even thought to bring their pet parents good luck!
Black Cats Are Evil
False. Sure they may jump on the kitchen counter or use your favorite chair as a scratching post. And just maybe they even try to nibble your toes while you sleep. All cats can be playful. But evil? We think not.
Black Cats Are Often Unwanted
True. Ask any shelter or rescue worker and they will tell you—black cats are the hardest to get adopted. In fact, they are only half as likely to find homes as other cats. So, what's the problem? An unfairly earned reputation? Yep.
Black Cats Make Awesome Pets!
True. Black cats may get a bad rap, but really they're just as lovable as the next furry feline. So help us turn their luck around.Share this article with your friends, and consider adopting one of the cuties currently available at the ASPCA Adoption Center!
My Black cat, Jasper, was my baby. He kissed me when I asked and purred on my lap within seconds of me sitting down. There was never a sweeter cat, ever. A mama's boy but very social, curious , part of the party and oh so elegant. I miss him always.
My black cat, Noir, is such a sweet girl! She's a little diva and very affectionate. I adopted her from Wildlife Rescue in San Antonio; I'm so thankful they took her in so I could find her. Incidentally I also have a white cat. Black cat, white cat. :)
Having had my 1st black cat tortured in some stupid "satanic ritual" I have become uber pro-black cat rescue (crazy cat lady) we only adopt & rescue black kittens, teens, adults & seniors. Our 2 newest editions are kittens brother & sister: Sir Lance Charming & Lady London GaGa both are 12 weeks old spayed & neutered (most important a life saving procedure that will hopefully prevent black cat killings tortured abused lives) black kittys are the best! They have unique cat-a-natalies & when you spring a black kitten cat or senior you're more than saving lives you are enriching yours. Cats are always better in pairs, triplets & more. If you've ever got black cat questions contact me
Since I have started owning cats (or them owning me) I have ALWAYS made sure I had one Black Cat in the family. They have a different attitude and in my house, was the master of the house. Playful and loving, sensitive and kind. If you really want to believe in the superstition then read up. On one site I was on it said that WHITE cats are considered bad luck if they show up at you house and stay.
I have had many black and tuxedo cats over the years. My little girl Mama Midnight was a petite little girl with a big heart, and was my shadow, (no pun intended!) and stuck 2 me like glue!
She would even wrap around my neck at night when I was sleeping and cling to the pillow so I couldn't get away! I miss her and all my other babies who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge over the years. As a volunteer at a local shelter, I see that we currently have many black and tuxedo cats. If I could, I would adopt them all. I currently have this tuxedo cat outside my house 4 quite some time whom I am trying 2 take care of and friend. We have so many stray or unwanted cats, it is so hard 2 keep up. The area just around my house has been extremely busy lately. There was one little guy Dillon who we rescued very young with his brother Jessie. He was black with only one eye when we found him, and needed to have surgery to close it up and keep from infection. He was the smaller of the 2, and so cute always looking like he was winking at u! He and his brother were very close, and Jessie was very close 2 and protective of his smaller brother Dillon, so we wanted them adopted together. We had them well over a year, and they were finally adopted to a good home. :) Many happy stories and many still waiting 4 their forever homes. :(
We adopted a black cat, named Sunny, when she was a kitten. She is 2 years old now and she is absolutely the sweetest, most amazing cat around. She has a great personality and is very loveable. In fact, she looks almost exactly like the kitty posted on this page. It breaks my heart to hear black cats are half as likely to find a home. People need to put their silly superstitions aside, because black cats are just as amazing as every other kind.
I have never had a black cat but I would not care what color their coat is. It is like buying a jacket,
does it matter what color it is it just matters that it fits right?
The two best cats that have ever owned me are black. The first was named Sabbath and he was awesome. He was an out door cat and was treated badly. Eventually some one actually did the cruelest thing ever. They poisoned him. It broke my heart and I knew right then that I would never subject a cat to the cruelty of the public again. I have Zeke now who is the sweetest, cutest, funniest, orneriest, and silliest cat in the world. He is jet black with golden eyes. He has certainly never brought me bad luck. Nothing but happiness and joy. Foolish are those who believe in such myth. You are missing out.
Please! All cat owners. If you really love your cat, keep it indoors. Not everyone love cats. People, cars and other animals can be very dangerous for you baby.
black cats can be the sweetest thing ever if you train them and care for them if you hate black cats you hate pets
I currently have three female black cats. I love each of them dearly. My close friends call me the crazy cat lady and I accept that title with honor. All of my girls are rescue kitties so it makes me feel great for giving them a good home. Stop the myth about black cats! I am lucky to have them in my life!

Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[8] The Senate confirmed 13,949 out of 18,323 executive nominations received (76.1 percent). For more information pertaining to Warner's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[9]
National security
John Brennan CIA nomination
Warner voted for the confirmation of John Brennan as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. The nomination was confirmed by the Senate on March 7, 2013, with a vote of 63 - 34. Most Democrats supported the nomination, while Republicans were somewhat divided with roughly one-third supporting the nomination.[10]
No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013
Warner voted for H.R.325 -- No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013. The bill passed the Senate on January 31, 2013, with a vote of 64 - 34. The purpose of the bill was to temporarily suspend the debt ceiling and withhold the pay of members of Congress until a budget could be passed. The vote largely followed party lines with Democrats overwhelmingly supporting it and many Republicans in opposition to the bill.[11]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
During the shutdown in October 2013, the Senate rejected, down party lines, every House-originated bill that stripped the budget of funding for the Affordable Care Act. A deal was reached late on October 16, 2013, just hours before the debt ceiling deadline. The bill to reopen the government, H.R. 2775, lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funds the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[12] The final vote on H.R. 2775 was 81-18, with all 18 votes against the bill from Republican members. Warner voted with the Democratic Party for the bill.[13]
Mexico-U.S. border
Warner voted against Senate Amendment 1197 -- Requires the Completion of the Fence Along the United States-Mexico Border. The amendment was rejected by the Senate on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 39 - 54. The purpose of the amendment was to require the completion of 350 miles of fence described in the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 before registered provisional immigrant status may be granted. It would also require 700 miles of fence be completed before the status of registered provisional immigrants may be changed to permanent resident status. The vote followed party lines.[14]
Social Issues
Violence Against Women (2013)
Warner voted for S.47 -- Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013. The bill was passed by the Senate on February 12, 2013, with a vote of 78 - 22. The purpose of the bill was to combat violence against women, from domestic violence to international trafficking in persons. All 22 dissenting votes were cast by Republicans.[15]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal Cliff
Warner voted for the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. The bill was passed in the Senate by a 89 - 8 vote on January 1, 2013.[16]
Bieber deportation
On February 4, 2014, Warner said that he would sign a petition to deport Justin Bieber, a Canadian citizen.[17][18][19]
He sent a tweet that said, "It's true: I'm not a #Belieber. 'Senator Mark Warner offers to sign petition to deport Justin Bieber.'"[17]
Warner made trips to Iowa and New Hampshire prior to the 2008 presidential election, but he decided against campaigning and withdrew, citing family concerns. He won re-election to his Senate seat in 2014.[20] There have been 16 senators elected to the presidency, including Barack Obama.[21]
He is a Democratic member of the U.S. Senate from the state of Virginia. Warner was first elected to the Senate in 2008.[1]
Warner ran in the 2014 election for the U.S. Senate, representing Virginia. Warner sought the Democratic nomination in the primary. The general election took place November 4, 2014.[2]
A November 2013 poll suggested a difficult bid for re-election in 2014 for Warner. A Washington Free Beacon poll found that 50% of voters would re-elect Warner over another candidate, whereas 45% would prefer a new Senator. Among independents, Warner struggles with 49% saying they would rather elect a new Senator than keep Warner. Only 43% of Independents would like to keep Warner in office.[22]
Warner was endorsed by John Warner, the Republican senator Warner challenged in 1996. While John prevailed, Mark Warner ran again successfully for the Senate when John retired.[23]
On November 20, 2012, Warner announced that he would not run for his former position as Governor of Virginia in 2013. Prior to this, Warner had been the prospective frontrunner for the 2013 Democratic nomination. His decision clears the way for confirmed candidate, former Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe, to represent the party in the race against presumptive GOP nominee, attorney general Ken Cuccinelli, to succeed term-limited incumbent Gov. Bob McDonnell. Warner, who segued to the U.S. Senate when his term as governor ended in 2006, told the press, "I loved being governor, but I have a different job now - and it's here, in the United States Senate."[24][25]
On November 4, 2008, Mark Warner won election to the United States Senate. He defeated James "Jim" S. Gilmore (R), William B. Redpath (L) and Glenda Gail Parker (G) in the general election.[26]

Graphics have been certainly improved in the HD version. Now the games looks way better, it's brighter and shows stunning animations. If you're used to play TD with low-graphics, it will be a bit weird this one. If you've never try it before, give this a go, since the improvement is noticeable.
It has to be said though that there's no too many differences from the normal version and the HD version, apart from the appearance. Is it worth to upgrade? From our point of view, yes. Zombies will run you mad anyway, but now over great graphics.

DURHAM — Last season the New Bern Bears were artists at coming from behind to win baseball games.
This year, until Friday, they haven't had to worry about it too often.
On a somber, chilly night in Durham, the Bears snared themselves in the early innings, committing five errors in the first three frames.
The Pirates jumped out to a 4-0 lead after three before the Bears charged back to win, 5-4, in extra innings.
"We dug ourselves in a huge hole, not being able to field the baseball early," New Bern coach Gary Smith said.
"(Cameron) Snow was great on the mound for (Riverside), and I think when their reliever (Jake Kusz) came in in the sixth, he was throwing all heat and didn't have that threat of a breaking ball, and we put some solid swings on it and got some runs."
In the bottom of the fourth, Bears' centerfielder Josh Taylor smashed a solo shot to center to put New Bern on the board.
The score remained 4-1 until the top of the sixth inning, as Riverside starter Cameron Snow perplexed Bears' batters with his painting of the outside corner.
Then, in the sixth, sophomore second baseman Bailey Ipock picked the biggest time and the best way to break out of a slump.
Ipock delivered his inaugural hit of the season, with a two-run bomb over the left field wall, bringing New Bern within one run at 4-3.
"As a nine-hitter, I have one job and that's to make contact and get the ball in play, and that's really all I was trying to do" Ipock said with a smile.
"I wasn't trying to hit out, but it feels great to get my first hit of the season on a two-run homer."
After Ipock's blast, Trent Wynn hit a ground-rule double that hopped over the center field wall, Austin King singled and Taylor was intentionally walked to load the bases.
With one out and the sacks jacked, the game was on the broad shoulders of Bears' leftfielder Tyler Mincavage.
Mincavage hit a steady roller to short that seemed to be a tailor-made double-play ball.
As Snow, who was now in the game at shortstop, fielded the ball himself and stepped on second, Taylor slid in to the bag to break up the twin killing, forcing Snow's throw to first to pull the Pirates' first baseman off the bag and allowing the tying-run to score.
"To me, Josh's (Taylor) slide was the biggest play of the game," Smith said.
"If he doesn't break up the double play, then we lose by one and it's all over. That was a huge play for us."
The Bears finished off a non-conference home-and-home sweep of Riverside to improve to 6-0 on the season, while the Pirates fall to 2-2.
Riverside isn't a run-of-the-mill non-conference foe either.
The Pirates have won the PAC-6 4-A Conference baseball title four times since 2006.
"I thought we hung toe-to-toe with them down at their place and then obviously played them tough again here at ours," Riverside coach Doug Simmons said.
"They have a great ball club and I like to think we do too. That's why I wanted to play them and why I scheduled them, to make us better going into our league. We needed to play great competition, it doesn't do us any good to beat up on teams not as good as us, and I'm sure Coach Smith feels the same way."

New Bern - 0 0 0 1 0 0 3 1 – 5

A new article on Climate Spectator, 'You can have your carbon and eat it too', explores the commercial viability of the emerging algae energy industry.
The author, Giles Parkinson, outlines the potential profitable uses of the technology, including " jet fuel, biochar, animal feed, fish food, oils, plastics and fertiliser".
According to Parkinson, "A whole host of competing algae technologies are now entering the pilot and demonstration phase to prove they can effectively capture emissions, provide a stable growing environment to produce the algae, and then use it for the aforementioned bi-products – and do it without going broke."
The article concludes by looking at Australia's role in this rapidly expanding industry: "Australia, he [T Riggs Eckelberry, the head of the US firm OriginOil] says, is potentially the perfect venue for such an industry: lots of land, lots of sun, and lots of greenhouse gases – and a government that is "brave enough" to put a price on those emissions. "My thesis is that Australia has an opportunity to develop another huge resource industry"."

On their last night in Canada until the Toronto show in August, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers played Winnipeg, unleashing two hours of non-stop rock 'n roll that left the MTS Centre crowd screaming for more.
Joe Cocker and his eight-piece band " keyboardist Nick Milo, drummer Jack Bruno, guitarist Gene Black, organist Mike Finnigan, bassist Oneida James-Rebeccu, saxophonist Norberto Fimpel and singers Nichelle Tillman and Vivian Sessoms " capped their 10-show run opening for the Heartbreakers with perhaps their most inspiring show of the tour. From opener "Hitchcock Railway" to the set-closing "Cry Me A River," Cocker and company were on fire and set Winnipeg ablaze with their combustible combination of soul, rock and funky R&B. Thanks to Joe, his band and crew for a memorable few weeks of music.
Tom Petty kicked off the Heartbreakers' set with "Listen to Her Heart," singing "She's gonna listen to her heart, it's gonna tell her what to do. She might need a lot of lovin', but she don't need you' with the same sense of snide urgency found on 1978's You're Gonna Get It!. "Don't Come Around Here No More" served as a appropriate bookend to the set, another classic kiss-off song penned by the Gainesville, FL native.
Check back soon for a report from St. Paul with photos of fans and the band as well as a video message from Joe Cocker!

American creativity overflowed in the Capitol—literally. The Copyright Act of 1870 decreed that two copies of all protected works be deposited in the Library of Congress. The Library quickly was swamped with books, music, photographs, and other copyrighted material.
In 1886, Congress authorized a new Library facility. The Washington firm of Smithmeyer & Pelz designed a magnificent building, which opened in 1897. Its majestic scale, domed reading room, and vast galleries enriched with sculpture and murals instantly made it Washington's most popular building.
At the Capitol, Congress decided in 1900 to rebuild the Library's former space, creating 20 new offices and committee rooms. Built of masonry vaults, like older parts of the building, they were decorated with murals designed by Elmer Garnsey of New York.
This drawing was made shortly before the overcrowded library relocated from the Capitol to its spacious new home on First Street.

The Capitol's library, famous when built in 1852–1853 for its iron construction, had become cramped and obsolete by the century's end.

North Carolina ranks fourth in the nation for African-American unemployment and one in six black workers continue to be unemployed, according to a recent report.
In addition, the N.C. Division of Employment Security released a report this month painting a bleak unemployment forecast.
The 2013 Economic Policy Institute report, Unemployment Rates are Projected to Remain High for Whites, Latinos, and African Americans throughout 2013, shows fourth-quarter unemployment rates in North Carolina were 9.2 percent overall.
This compares to 17.3 percent for African-Americans, 6.7 percent for whites, 7.4 percent for Hispanics and 7.8 percent nationally.
Fourth-quarter unemployment rates for 2007 in the state were 8.1 percent for African-Americans, 4 percent for whites and 4.9 percent overall.
A summary of the report was written by Algernon Austin, who directs the EPI's Program on Race, Ethnicity, and the Economy.
Austin stated in his conclusion the focus should be on heavy investment in infrastructure improvements, rather than deficits, to stimulate the economy and create jobs for minorities.
"Policymakers need to focus on jobs now," he said, "and on deficits only after we have a strong economy."
Total unemployment rates don't tell the whole story. This month's state figures show 20,000 workers have dropped out of the labor system, including 15,000 people who gave up searching for jobs.
"The unemployment rate is dropping because jobless folks are giving up on finding work and dropping out of the labor force," said Allan Freyer, policy analyst with the NC Budget & Tax Center, "not because we're experiencing significant and meaningful job creation."
As a result of these changes, the labor force — the pool of prime age workers who either have a job or want one — is now at the lowest level since July 2012, erasing almost nine months worth of gains. And the total number of employed people in North Carolina also dropped to the lowest levels since October 2012, suggesting that North Carolina's economy is continuing to struggle in generating long-term sustainable job creation.
But the ratio of blacks to whites in unemployment has remained about the same for the last 50 years.
African-Americans have consistently experienced an unemployment rate about twice that of whites, according to EPI's 2012 report, For African Americans, 50 years of high unemployment.
Census Bureau data show that trend exists back to 1960, the report states.
"While whites have experienced periods of high unemployment during the 1970s, early 1980s, and in the past few years," the report states, "their highest rates are in the range of the lowest unemployment rates for African Americans in the last 50 years."
Several factors are mentioned for the disparity, including federal and state budget cuts disproportionately affecting African-American and Hispanic workers, public sector job losses affecting more African-Americans and the recession hitting African-American communities harder with declining industries, particularly manufacturing.
North Carolina has the second-highest rate of manufacturing job loss since 1995 among all the states from which the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey data are available.
Other factors include age — the white labor force is older, education and geography.
White unemployment peaked at 9.8 percent in the fourth quarter of 2009. African-American unemployment ranged around 17-20 percent throughout the recession and peaked at 20.1 percent.
Of the 24 states with a high enough black population for data, Michigan ranks No. 1 in the nation for African-American unemployment, followed by New Jersey and Illinois. Louisiana ranks No. 24.
