These sub-social forms of life provide the ideal field of research for investigating under what conditions the advantages of cooperation in a family unit outweigh the disadvantages. For this purpose, the scientists from Mainz and Basel provided 125 earwig families with dyed pollen and observed if and how the food was divided amongst the siblings. "We found that siblings behave cooperatively and share food and that this behavior occurs much more frequently when the mother is not present and is not feeding her offspring herself," stated Meunier. This may at least partly explain why mobile offspring stay with the family group despite the disadvantages associated with this. In addition, this insight provides an important clue to the early development of social behavior. The previously largely ignored aspect of sibling cooperation is possibly one of the key factors that promoted the transition from solitary to social life.

Recipe by JEN13212
"This is my doctored up version of a diet ambrosia salad my mom always made. I admit that this sounds strange, but it really is sweet and refreshing on a hot summer day! (It's not as low-cal as hers.) It's also easy to adjust to your family's fruit preferences. Be sure to drain the fruit very well so the salad is not too soupy."

Singapore veteran Daniel Bennett believes the Philippine Azkals may have wasted their chance of gaining headway in their AFF Suzuki Cup semis showdown last Saturday at the Rizal Memorial Football Stadium.
For allowing them to escape with a scoreless draw, the Azkals, according to the naturalized defender from England, will have to pay dearly for it since a huge crowd - perhaps much bigger than the size that witnessed the first leg - are expected to come and support the Lions when they play at the Jalan Besar Stadium.
In Singapore, football is considered like a religion and the team's star players are being worshipped like rock stars.
While he acknowledged Azkals' toughness defensively, they will be hard pressed to repeat their magical performance in Thailand where it won two successive games against Vietnam and Myanmar.
"We knew it's going to be tough (playing in Manila)," said Bennett. "They are a physical team but I think they know when they come to Singapore, it's going to be tough."
The Lions controlled most of the game as Aleksandar Duric and Shahril Ishak led the team's fluid attack that saw them threaten Azkals' lair several times.
But then again, goalie Ed Sacapano rose to the occasion and so were the team's backline crew.
The Azkals left for Singapore yesterday and will hold practice today.
Tickets were sold on a limited basis to Filipino fans who will seat in one of the gallery sections of the venue.
Jerry Lucena, who missed the last two matches because of his club stint in Denmark, will rejoin the team for the crucial match with the Lions.
Lucena played the first two matches of the group stage held in Bangkok but was recalled by his Danish club Esbjerg after the dramatic 1-0 win over Vietnam on Nov. 27.

"Reasonable cause" defense to imposition of 100% withholding tax penalty against responsible persons.
Johnson took no further action and made no further inquiry with respect to the unpaid taxes, and it was not until two weeks later that Johnson learned that Finley still had not paid the delinquent taxes. That same day, the corporation's bank froze the bank accounts; at that point, no bills could be paid without the bank's approval. One week later, Johnson and Finley delivered funds to the bank, requesting that they be applied to the delinquent taxes. The bank refused and instead applied the funds to the corporation's outstanding bank loans, with bank officials telling them that they would take care of the taxes later.
Sec. 6672 provides that, if a person responsible for collecting and paying over trust fund taxes willfully fails to do so, such person is personally liable for a penalty equal to the unpaid tax. (Most, if not all, states have similar provisions with respect to state trust fund taxes.) The wording of Sec. 6672 seems to allow the IRS to collect the full penalty from each responsible party, although the Service's policy is to collect the penalty only once. The IRS continued to seek the penalty from Johnson after winning a judgment against Finley (due to Finley's apparent inability to pay). There was no indication that the IRS sought to assess the penalty against the bank, although Sec. 6672 does not preclude such action.
At Johnson's trial, the jury found that he, admittedly a responsible person under Sec. 6672, had shown by a preponderance of the evidence that he did not willfully fail to pay the trust fund taxes. The trial judge, however, set aside the jury verdict and ruled that Johnson was liable; he held, as a matter of law, that a reasonable jury could not have found that Johnson met his burden of proof concerning lack of willfulness. The judge did not instruct the jury of the existence of a reasonable cause defense to the imposition of the penalty. A three-judge panel of the Tenth Circuit affirmed, and the case was reheard by the entire Tenth Circuit.
The word "willfully" as used in Sec. 6672 has been the subject of various court interpretations. Since it is often impossible to show that a responsible person knew that trust fund taxes were not being paid, courts have found responsible persons liable under Sec. 6672 if they acted "with a reckless disregard of a known or obvious risk that the trust funds may not be remitted to the government." Courts have defined certain "distinctive fact patterns" (which the Tenth Circuit calls paradigms) and have ruled that their existence constitutes willfulness as a matter of law. One paradigm is the failure of a responsible person to investigate or correct the delinquency on learning of its existence. Another is the payment of other bills with the knowledge that the business is in financial trouble, without reasonably inquiring whether funds are available to timely pay trust fund taxes. The Tenth Circuit felt that, over the years, once the courts identified the existence of one of the Sec. 6672 paradigms, they would find the responsible person liable for the penalty without allowing the jury to consider the particular facts and circumstances of each case. This had the effect of transforming Sec. 6672 into a strict liability statute, which the full court said was not Congress's intent.
The court did not reject the use of the paradigms in determining willfulness, but ruled that Johnson should have been allowed to argue to the jury that there was reasonable cause that excused the failure to pay the trust fund taxes. The responsible person has the burden of proving that the facts and circumstances constituted reasonable cause. This burden of proof is especially onerous, since it is often difficult to prove a negative--i.e., that willfulness did not exist. For purposes of Sec. 6672, reasonable cause is a more difficult standard to meet than the reasonable cause standard applicable to income tax penalties. Reasonable cause can exist only when "(1) the taxpayer has made reasonable efforts to protect the trust funds, but (2) those efforts have been frustrated by circumstances outside the taxpayer's control." The court noted that, although the Fifth Circuit has "conceptually recognized" the reasonable cause exception under Sec. 6672, other circuits have rejected it. Rather than reinstate the jury's verdict, the court ordered a new trial on the issue of reasonable cause. (As of this writing, the Solicitor General's office is considering an appeal of Finley to the U.S. Supreme Court.)
Finley serves as an obvious reminder that all responsible persons who fail to remit trust fund taxes do so at their peril. It also reinforces the principle of earlier cases that the discovery of such nonpayment by other responsible persons imposes a duty on them to take adequate steps to protect the funds that belong to the government the moment they are withheld from employees' paychecks. Sec. 6672 was modified in 1996 to allow for an apportionment of the penalty among the responsible persons according to their proportionate share of the penalty (Sec. 6672(d)).

I hate to say it but good luck. When it comes to Glacier bay or Pegasus faucets you get what you pay for. Home Depot is the exclusive retailer of these brands and they would rather sell you a new faucet than sell you parts to repair it. These faucets are made as inexpensively as possible in a factory overseas. There are parts available somewhere but just doing a search online can leave a customer very confused. Especially if you don't know the exact part that you are looking for.
Parts can be ordered online but there is always a risk that what you see isn't going to be what you need. For a long time Glacier Bay and Pegasus didn't even have a website for customers to look up info. They finally created a website but finding any helpful info on is nearly impossible. For example, here is a "helpful" hint from the glacierbayfaucet.org site found on the parts page: "One particular suggestion you could make use of to uncover the correct part for the sink will be the power of the World Wide Web. It is relatively simple simply use the search phrase "glacier bay faucet" + parts and you may substitute parts using a much more specific key phrase so that you can drill down and look for a particular component. For example if you have a product number you are able to research in this way and make use of the model number combined with key phrase. There are lots of online faucet retailers which focus on outright sink components and you'll discover that they can carry what exactly you need."
As you can see the "parts" page of the Glacier Bay website itself has no useful info on how to find parts. In fact at the bottom of the page is a customer comments section where you can read for yourself about all the issues people have with Glacier Bay faucets including finding available parts.
Glacier Bay faucets are made to be thrown away plain and simple. They fall into the category of "planned obsolescence". In other words, the designers of the faucet make it look and sound good enough that you'll buy it with the intention that in a few years it's going to fail and you will have to buy a new faucet. They also sell these faucets so cheaply that throwing away the old one doesn't seem like that big of a loss. ( check out my blog about repairing vs. replacing faucets for more info on this).
With all that said, there are a few parts available if you now where to look. At our store we have a few stems that work for a couple of models of Glacier Bay faucets. I know that "a few" and "a couple" doesn't sound real promising but it's better than nothing. You can also try going to Home Depot to see if they could help. The reality is that I wouldn't recommend buying a Glacier Bay or Pegasus faucet. If you own one and need parts you may be out of luck.

Pingback: Tweets that mention Where to find Glacier Bay & Pegausus Faucets and their Parts « LeVahn Brothers Plumbing and Hardware -- Topsy.com
Thanks for that, just saved me loads of time searching for parts I was never going to find
Its all part of the 'buy and throw away' culture. Very few people want to actually fix things anymore. They'll happily pay top dollar to get a new 'whatever' and ogle their shiny new faucet (or whatever).
Great post, by the way…
Glacier Bay Faucets do provide free replacement parts for all their products still in production. Just call the Glacier Bay faucet warranty phone number in your instruction manual. You may need to leave a message and wait a couple of days, but hay, the parts are still free.
Actually, most major faucet company's will offer free replacement parts. It's just a matter of how long you're willing to wait before you get the parts. If you're willing and able to wait a few weeks for parts then this is an option. The problem with Glacier Bay is the run around and the hassle you may have to go through to get the parts. I've heard first hand stories from customers of mine about trying to get parts from Home Depot. The key is having a part number. If you don't have a part number, good luck. The other problem that people have run into is that their model is now obsolete. If Glacier bay no longer makes your style of faucet you may have a problem getting parts as well.
we are using plastic kitchen faucets at home because they are very cheap and you can easily replace them if they broke ~:~
What it sounds like is that you are using what is known as a "throw away" product. That's up to you. I'd say look at my blog post I did that talks about throw away products. throw away products. I'd argue that you'd save money and the headache of continually replacing faucets if you just bought a higher quality faucet to begin with.
I am an independent Saniflo Engineer in the UK, the amount of times I have heard customers tell me general plumbers say Saniflo Macerators are unrepairable is unbelievable. The throwaway society is terrible these days, can you imagine the amount of good repairable items that must get thrown away!!!
Actually, their higher end products are manufactured in the US and Canada by Globe Union, and GU replacement parts fit. If you want the replacement parts for free, and you have a week to wait, call the toll-free number on the warranty card. If you'd like to fix it and forget it, then get the metal GU parts.
These guys really are 'you get what you pay for'; their higher end products have much better support.
to find Pegasus faucet parts, you need to get the model number (small print somewhere toward the bottom of the faucet) then call 866-863-9931. You will get Glacier Bay, who apparently sells Pegasus parts. The price seemed fair and they pay the shipping. They were quick and effecient.
Thanks for the tip Howard. I wish they made it easier than that. It would be nice if we could get Glacier Bay/Pegasus parts to sell in our retail location for those customers who don't want to wait or go through the hassle of doing all the leg work themselves. But it's nice to know that you've found somewhere that was reasonable.

MIDDLEBURY — On Friday, a Middlebury Union High School boys' basketball team in a stretch drive for a top Division I playoff seed got past a visiting Mount Abraham team that continues to have few wins to show for its efforts, 85-29.
The Eagles trailed by just 9-7 late in the first quarter, but the Tigers closed the period with a 6-0 run and then dropped a 27-9 second quarter on Mount Abe.
MUHS Coach Chris Altemose said the 14-4 Tigers' goal is to play the best they can regardless of the opponent, a target they hit on Friday.
MIDDLEBURY — For the first time since 2002, the Middlebury College women's basketball team is going to the NESCAC final four, courtesy of the No. 4 Panthers' 75-64 home quarterfinal win over No. 5 Bates on Saturday.
Middlebury (14-11) will meet No. 3 Williams (21-4) on Saturday at Amherst, while No. 8 Bowdoin (14-10) will take on the No. 2 host school Amherst (24-1). The winners meet Sunday.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury College men's basketball team pulled away down the stretch of Saturday's NESCAC quarterfinal vs. Wesleyan to win, 61-49, and potentially set up rematches with both teams that have defeated the Panthers this winter.
MIDDLEBURY — In a Tuesday night college men's basketball game with more twists and turns than Route 125 on the way to Ripton, Amherst made the last in a series of incredible plays and left a packed, roaring Pepin Gymnasium with a 104-101, triple-overtime win over Middlebury.
The win gave the 22-2 Lord Jeffs the NESCAC title with a 10-0 record in league play and home court advantage for the NESCAC postseason, and will at least preserve their No. 2 ranking in NCAA Division III.
BRISTOL — Middlebury Union High School senior wrestler Gabe LaBerge won his 100th career match on Saturday at the NVAC team championship meet, which was hosted by Mount Abraham.
LaBerge, a 195-pounder, earned the landmark victory in dramatic fashion. He avenged a defeat from a week before to Mount Mansfield's John Sirois, 5-3, and scored the winning points on a third-period takedown as the clock hit 0:00.

This Isn't Good
I think it takes more effort for me to open my notebook and study than it takes to actually read the material. The two papers, one pre-lim, and one lab practical that I had mentioned in the previous post are still hanging over my head. I finished one paper (on the photograph in Life Magazine by Robert Capa of the dying Spanish soldier from the Spanish Civil war back in 1936), wrote the outline for my philosophy paper, and just wrapped up studying for the night on my Politics of Violence course. By the time I exert the oomph to open my book and review the material, I'm exhausted and can't concentrate/ read a couple pages and call an intermission. My brain is so out of shape, gees. This state of mind brings back fond memories of senior year in high school. I guess I should cherish it now because it will never happen again…oh my mom is going to be so mad at me.
On another note, I found a $5 bill blowing in the wind on my walk up to my Ethics and Healthcare course. I figured I'd be ethical and put the money in the poor box when I go to church. Maybe that'll give me the karma necessary to get a good grade on the test. Kant and his deontological argument would say that's not very ethical whatsoever. Kant didn't understand the concept of a senior slide.

Speedy sharkskin
Tiny, toothlike bumps boost sharks' swiftness
By Jennifer Cutraro, 14:00 PM March 7, 2012
Slicing through the water at speeds exceeding 45 miles per hour (72 kph), the shortfin mako shark is one of the fastest fish in the sea. A team of Harvard biologists has made a surprising discovery about what feature gives the mako, like all other sharks, its incredible swiftness — its sandpapery skin.
It may look sleek and smooth, but a shark's skin is actually rough. That's because sharkskin is covered with millions of microscopic, toothlike bumps called denticles. Scientists have long ...

Esteban Toledo wins in Texas
THE WOODLANDS, Texas (AP)
Esteban Toledo marked the Cinco de Mayo day celebrations by becoming the first Mexican winner in Champions Tour history, beating Mike Goodes with a par on the third hole of a playoff Sunday in the Insperity Championship.
TROPHY WAGsFor some golfers, the biggest prizes aren't their tournament wins but their wives and girlfriends.
The 50-year-old Toledo, making his ninth start on the 50-and-over tour, eagled the opening hole and finished with a 5-under 67 to match Goodes and Gene Sauers at 6-under 210 at The Woodlands Country Club. Goodes shot a 72, and Sauers - eliminated on the second playoff hole - had a 74.
Goodes shot a 72, and Sauers - eliminated on the second playoff hole with a double bogey- had a 74.
Cinco de Mayo marks the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, when Mexican troops defeated a French army of Napoleon III, then considered the mightiest military in the world. It is celebrated as a day of cultural pride by many Mexican Americans.
Toledo, seven strokes behind Sauers entering the round, earned $270,000 for his second victory in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event. He also won the Web.com Tour's 2005 Lake Erie Charity Classic.
The three players parred the first extra hole on the par-4 18th. Sauers dropped out on the second playoff hole - also on the 18th - after hitting his second shot into the water behind the green.
Toledo and Goodes went to the par-4 17th, and Toledo won with a tap-in par after Goodes missed a 5-footer.
PGA TOUR WIN LEADERSCollecting trophies is a habit of Tiger Woods.
Sauers had a triple bogey on the par-5 15th, the easiest hole in the tournament and one that he birdied in the first two rounds. He rebounded with a birdie on the par-3 16th to regain a share of the lead.
Toledo had a chance to pull ahead on the final hole, but his 20-foot birdie putt curved away at the last instant.
Mark Calcavecchia and Loren Roberts tied for fourth at 3 under. Calcavecchia shot 69, and Roberts had a 72.
Bernhard Langer kept the top spot in the Charles Schwab Cup points race. He closed with a 72 to tie for 25th at 5 over. Fred Funk, the 2012 winner, also finished 5 over after a 70.

I got an unsolicited phone call on a phone in which I call Doctors at my hospital from. When I asked to be put on the "do not call" list the fundraiser person stated,"We are a not-for-profit organization and are exempt from the do not call list." She HUNG UP on me while I was trying to explain that I had to use that phone to communicate with doctors. How RUDE!
I called them back and they put me on hold for 20 minutes.
I also left a message and they never returned my call.
I would NEVER support any organization that harasses me!

Wish this had a little more
"I'm keeping these shoes out of the three that I ordered because it was almost true to size (it was just slightly smaller), but was comfortable enough to bring to work at an office desk. I was a little disappointed because typically born shoes have a pretty sturdy construction but these seemed less well designed compared to other flats that I've tried on by the company. Overall it met my needs for work, I just would have like a little more solid of a construction given the price and the company."

"I really wanted to love these, esp since I think they are adorable. I just can't wear them very often or for very long - they feel like I'm walking barefoot. Not my cup of tea."

Flags of Our Fathersby Ron Powers
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In this unforgettable chronicle of perhaps the most famous moment in American military history, James Bradley has captured the glory, the triumph, the heartbreak, and the legacy of the six men who raised the flag at Iwo Jima. Here is the true story behind the immortal photograph that has come to symbolize the courage and indomitable will of America.
In February 1945, American Marines plunged into the surf at Iwo Jima—and into history. Through a hail of machine-gun and mortar fire that left the beaches strewn with comrades, they battled to the island's highest peak. And after climbing through a landscape of hell itself, they raised a flag.
Now the son of one of the flagraisers has written a powerful account of six very different young men who came together in a moment that will live forever.
To his family, John Bradley never spoke of the photograph or the war. But after his death at age seventy, his family discovered closed boxes of letters and photos. In Flags of Our Fathers, James Bradley draws on those documents to retrace the lives of his father and the men of Easy Company. Following these men's paths to Iwo Jima, James Bradley has written a classic story of the heroic battle for the Pacific's most crucial island—an island riddled with Japanese tunnels and 22,000 fanatic defenders who would fight to the last man.
But perhaps the most interesting part of the story is what happened after the victory. The men in the photo—three were killed during the battle—were proclaimed heroes and flown home, to become reluctant symbols. For two of them, the adulation was shattering. Only James Bradley's father truly survived, displaying no copy of the famous photograph in his home, telling his son only: "The real heroes of Iwo Jima were the guys who didn't come back."
Few books ever have captured the complexity and furor of war and its aftermath as well as Flags of Our Fathers. A penetrating, epic look at a generation at war, this is history told with keen insight, enormous honesty, and the passion of a son paying homage to his father. It is the story of the difference between truth and myth, the meaning of being a hero, and the essence of the human experience of war.
From the Hardcover edition.
Here is the true story behind the six men who raised the flag at Iwo Jima and the immortal photograph that has come to symbolize the courage and indomitable will of America.

Ph.D., Yale, 2006
Office: Goodspeed Hall 304
Phone: (773) 702-8577
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Steven Rings's research focuses on transformational theory, phenomenology, popular music, and voice. Animating all of his work is an abiding interest in the relationship between music theory and broadly humanistic inquiries into music as a cultural practice. Rings has served on the faculty of the Mannes Institute for Advanced Study in Music Theory and he is the series editor of Oxford Studies in Music Theory. His book Tonality and Transformation (Oxford, 2011) — recipient of the Society for Music Theory's 2012 Emerging Scholar Award — develops a transformational model of tonal hearing, employing it in interpretive essays on music from Bach to Mahler. His current book project explores Bob Dylan's fifty-year performing career. Rings's article "A Foreign Sound to Your Ear: Bob Dylan Performs 'It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding),' 1964–2009" (Music Theory Online, 2013) won the 2014 Outstanding Publication Award from the Society for Music Theory's Popular Music Interest Group. In other recent work, Rings has focused on the analysis of the popular singing voice, the music of Gabriel Fauré, and the writings of philosopher Vladimir Jankélévitch. Recent graduate seminars have covered topics such as the relationship between song, track, and performance in diverse popular-music traditions; the music of Bob Dylan; Lewinian transformational theory; and musical presence. Rings also teaches tonal and post-tonal theory at the undergraduate and graduate levels, as well as a course on musical interpretation and criticism in the College Core. Before becoming a music theorist, Rings was active as a classical guitarist, performing in the U.S. and in Portugal, where he was Professor of Guitar at the Conservatório Regional de Angra do Heroísmo.

In this conference, the two groups mapped their convergence plans as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) made bullet points of the implications of their discussion. Their perspective was based on U.S generally accepted accounting practices (GAAP) standards. There would be several but the main reason for such a convergence would be for the reduction of the cost of capital in an international world.
"When I speak of IFRS/US GAAP convergence, I do not expect the two sets of standards will necessarily produce identical financial statements. But I do consider it necessary that convergence results in close alignment of the accounting for the same, or essentially the same, transactions, generally comparable results in trends and a continued co-operative will to reduce differences over time, as well as the transparent understanding of any significant differences," said SEC chief accountant Donald Nicolaisen speaking with the Financial Director.
Most world accounting standards mirror U.S. standards that are specific and rules-based versus principle-based. U.S. rules are not brief by any means. The discussions went toward international standards based on U.S. standards instead. In the face of Sarbanes-Oxley, this was the best path.
International accounting standards is still a far goal to Europeans and Americans but other countries like China and Japan are voicing interest as well. There will be a need to incorporate national and regional differences. The content of these International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) is surely in the hands of politicians and regulating organizations.
The British Accounting Standards Board (ASB) has raised questions with the first draft of the IASB/FASB standards. They packaged their issues and proposals in a consultation document. They seemed to have particular issue with mergers and acquisitions.
"All parties interested in financial reporting should be aware that this represents a major change in UK requirements," said ASB Chairman Ian Mackintosh in the consultation document. "We urge our constituents to make their views known to the IASB and to the ASB, so thay can be fully considered both in the international context and as regards their possible implecation in the UK."
"The ASB is a respected body and has areputation for good thinking. It is an able lobby group," said Ken Wild speaking with the Financial Director. Wild is the global head of IFRS at Deloitte and Touche and added, "If the ASB thinks there is something wrong it will say so and this could see the IASB and FASB make changes to the standard."

Across my desk recently came a reissue of the 1964 classic "The Drinking Man's Diet," a cute little volume that maintains that if you drink a bit you'll lose weight. Counterintuitive, because one of the things we think we know about alcohol is that it provides truly empty calories, which generally speaking cause weight gain (see, for example, soda).

How to describe Congressman Paul Ryan's reaction when Ray Jose showed up at his Florida book signing?
Let's say it was like a vegetarian who, suitably bibbed for a suitable meal, sees a rack of lamb slide before him.

Of all the adventures my lucky children had this summer - swimming in two oceans, hanging out on their bearded uncle's commercial salmon fishing boat, endless popsicles - the biggest one, they told me, was just 495 feet away in their own Washington, D.C., neighborhood.
They got to walk to the corner store on Capitol Hill by themselves. Clutch your pearls, America. The boys are 7 and 10. Apparently, I could be arrested for this.
The tragic shooting of a black teenager by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, has sparked an intense debate about the state of race relations in America, but there's little indication much will change.
Gov. Rick Perry of Texas is running for president again. What are his chances? Will he once again become a punch line? I have absolutely no idea. This isn't a horse-race column.
What I'd like to do, instead, is take advantage of Perry's ambitions to talk about one of my favorite subjects: interregional differences in economic and population growth.
Two weeks after the killing of Michael Brown, we have become painfully familiar with his parents through their public appearances and television interviews, their faces drawn, their sorrow apparent.
The Affordable Care Act was supposed to be a slam dunk issue for the Republicans in this fall's elections. Karl Rove told us so in April, writing that "Obamacare is and will remain a political problem for Democrats."
So how's that Obamacare thing working out for the GOP?
Televised scenes of fires and looters ravaging storefront buildings in Ferguson, Missouri brought flashbacks in my memory to other urban riots a half-century ago -- and to lessons that Ferguson officials failed to learn.
Among them: Never underestimate the power of police brutality to enflame black communities.
I've thought for some time that the Obama administration could look better in the rearview mirror of history than it does in the bumpy ride of the day to day. That may still turn out to be correct.

The purpose of these workshops is to discuss what we have heard to date, solicit further thought and discussion on the most important issues raised by both park ranchers and the public through the scoping process, and lay out the next steps.
In addition to the two workshops, a brief comment period—November 17-26—will be open to gather additional comments. Through these community workshops, we hope to foster a constructive dialog focused on some of the most critical issues that have emerged. Your ideas will both inform and shape the range of alternatives presented this coming summer in the ranch plan.

Argh, Where's Me
There are a lot of variations you can do on a good ol'
treasure hunt. First, you can actually have one or two people hide something
and draw a map to it. Or if you wanna get really creative, have someone write
out a series of clues that end up at the treasure's hiding spot. (Just make
sure that everyone else is occupied while the clues' creator sets them all
around the campsite.) A different version is to draw up a list of things you
find outdoors – a heart-shaped rock, 2 maple leaves, a handful of pinecones –
and divide everyone up into two teams. Then see which team can locate all of
the stuff on the list and bring it back to camp the fastest.
Get a Li'l Starstruck
Spend some time under the night sky. Especially if you're
from the city, you'll end up seeing lots of new things. And if you have time
before you leave for your trip, print out a constellation map so that you can
trace the starry pics for yourself. Just make sure you lay down when you're
looking up, or you'll have a pretty sore neck in the morning!
Story Time!
You don't necessarily have to tell ghost stories around the
campfire if you don't want to – there are still lots of other stories you can
tell. They can be real or imaginary, so see how creative your fam can be. And
if one person doesn't wanna hold the spotlight for too long, try a game: Have
someone start off with a sentence that begins "Once upon a time…" Then go
around the circle, adding a sentence each. Chances are, it'll get pretty
Ever climbed a tree before? Whether you have or you haven't,
you should while you're out camping. Find a nice, big tree with enough low
branches to get you started. Then see how high up you can get (safely). You can
take turns climbing it with your sibs and compete to see who can get up the
highest. Who knows? Maybe you'll be rewarded with an awesome view of the
Not-So-Scary Shadows
At night, use a flashlight inside your tent to make up some
shadow stories. Or just see what your hands can come up with. Shine the light
toward the tent wall, and put your hands in front of it. To get the clearest
picture, use a white tent wall or tack up a white sheet to throw the shadow
Shoot to Chill
Don't forget to pack some squirt guns in with all your
camping gear. On a hot afternoon, you can stage an epic squirt gun battle all
over the campground. And if there are other campers nearby, maybe you can
invite them to join in, too – the more, the merrier!
What's your fave part of nature? Is it the nifty bugs, the
pretty flowers, or the different types of leaves? Well, try collecting whatever
you think is really neat. Unless it's flowers that you can press into a book,
you'll probably have to leave your collection behind at the end of the trip.
But if you start looking, you never know what kind of unique things you might
find out there in the wilderness.
Cloud City
So you've already seen the stars at night, but have you
glanced up at the sky during the day? When you just wanna relax and take a
break from all those physical activities, spread yourself out on a comfy patch
of grass. Check out the clouds, and see what pictures you can find. It may
sound silly, but it can be really interesting to compare the things you find
with what your pal sees.

BOISE -- Saturday night, the Trey McIntyre Project will have their final performance in Boise as a dance company.
We've been a dance company for going almost on 10 years, said Caty Solace, Chief Strategy Office at the Trey McIntyre Project. We've been a full-time touring dance company for the past six years, and that entire time we've here in Boise.
They are doing their final Boise performance as a full-time dance company Saturday at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. at the Morrison Center. It's called Mercury Half-Life, and it's set to the music of Queen. It is bittersweet for the company to be doing their last performance, but they are grateful to the folks who have made it possible and supported their work.
We've done something incredible special here with the people of Boise, something that's trying to be replicated all around the world, said Solace. So I think we're going into this last show just feeling incredibly thankful that we had so many thousand of wonderful Boiseans along this journey with us.
After their last performance here, the company will go on a national tour, and Boise will continue to be the home base for future projects.
We're going to be working heavily on production for two full-length feature films which have already started filming, Solace said.
As for their yellow building on Warm Springs Avenue, they will be moving out, however there is no word yet on who will takeover the space.
It was Trey McIntyre's artistic vision that precipitated this change. Solace said his vision shifted to do work in film and photography.
We've started to see commissions come in in those different types of work, and so it felt like it's the time to move on and allow his artistic vision to grow and thrive, she said.
There are still a few tickets available for Saturday's performance.
There are also still tickets available for their fundraiser brunch this weekend, which can be purchased here.

I think I found an error & this error looks like it could cost me an add/drop.
If we look at MY add/drops they look like this:
Drop Jake Deitchler, Add Keegan Davis (12/3)
Drop Tristen DeShazer, Add Nick Corpe
(BTW the date for this transaction should be 12/13; You currently do not have a date for it-KR)
Drop Matt Ortega, Add Colby Covington (12/13)
Drop Jimmy Kennedy, Add Billy Ashnault 1/4
Drop Trevor Perry , Add Odie Delaney (1/12)
Now what is so interesting is that nowhere on that list do you see me ADDING Kennedy, only dropping him, (I did not draft him as he was R/Sing). And if you check my roster, I currently do not have Corpe on it, (so somewhere I must have dropped him). Therefore, you are missing the time I added Kennedy & dropped Corpe.

125: Angel Escobedo
133: Nick Fanthorpe, Ashnault
141: Levi Jones
149: Frank Molinaro, RJ Pena
157: Keegan Davis
165: Dustin Schlatter
174: Colby Covington, Jordan Blanton
184 John Dergo
197: Chad Beatty,Odie Delaney
285: Mark Ellis, Dom Bradley
That being said, that means I have used all TEN of my add/drops. This is unfortunate as I was saving ONE LAST move so I could unload one of my Missouri 285s @ the end of the year.
I have gone through the Free Agency thread & I have found that Kennedy/Corpe add/drop was HERE, (Page 14, post #135, Dec 24):
http://www.thewrestlingtalk.com/fant...aivers-14.html (Free Agency/Waivers)
Drop Nick Corpe 184 Purdue
Add Jimmy Kennedy 141 Illinois
If you look @ YOUR, (or maybe Russ's) RECORDS of my add/drops on PAGE 1 of the thread, you see that I have ONE remaining add/drop. Based upon your records a few weeks ago I took what I thought was #9 but apparently it was #10.
Based upon that, are you going to declare that:
1) keeping track of one's ADD/DROP records is actually one's own responsibility & that you do this only as a favor, hence I am SOL? (meaning that my add/drops have been exhausted?)
2) are you going to let me have ONE more due to administrative error?
3) Put it to a vote?
Just asking.

If a people voice speak up and say that they are in favor of giving everyone 1 extra add/drop, I don't have a problem with it because it's not really a big deal. Unless that happens, though, you're out of picks.
Again, I'm sorry about the clerical error.
well that sucks.
