LOS ANGELES – The Kings played a bad period Thursday night — i.e., Phoenix was allowed to actually feel the puck on an intermittent basis — and so they skated into their locker room in shame and anger.
That's the bar they've established in this spring offensive of theirs. Sergey Bubka would have trouble clearing it.
"A lot of things were said in here," Jarret Stoll said. "Not a lot positive. By everybody. The coach wasn't happy. The staff wasn't happy. We weren't happy. We were lucky to come in, after the first, with a tie game."
The Kings had not trailed since Game 1 of the second-round series against St. Louis, a span of 343 minutes. Now, 63 seconds into the second period, Daymond Langkow of Phoenix scored the first goal.
It turned out to be the last straw.
Anze Kopitar, who, believe it or not, was once compared unfavorably to Ryan Getzlaf, took off with Dustin Brown's breakout pass and feathered the tying goal through Mike Smith, only 2:07 later.
In the third period, Stoll swiped a pass by Michael Stone, and eventually Trevor Lewis shook off Antoine Vermette's hit and shoveled the puck to rookie Dwight King.
Wheeling out of the corner, as if he had been in Western Conference Finals all his life, King blasted a shot over Smith's left shoulder for a 2-1 lead. The crowd knew, and maybe even the Coyotes suspected, that the gavel had landed.
Sure enough, the Kings turned up their play all the way to the final buzzer and took a 3-0 lead in this series.
It could end Sunday and, if it does, would put the Kings into a Stanley Cup Final for the second time ever and the first since Wayne Gretzky marched through Toronto in 1993.
"You don't get anything for these wins," said goalie Jonathan Quick, who was rarely confronted, let alone belabored. "We just won a game. That's all it is."
Well, maybe not all.
The Kings became the third team ever to take 3-0 leads in each of their first three series, following the 2008 Penguins and the 1995 Red Wings.
Maybe the Kings are so low-key because they realize neither those Penguins or those Wings went on to win the Cup. But probably not. They're blissfully ignorant of everything, except the next puck that drops.
"Our focus is pretty narrow right now," Stoll said.

ECONOMY: Local jobless rates up slightly
National unemployment falls as region sees post-holiday letdown
The jobs picture also turned slightly downward in Southwest Riverside County.
The cities of Murrieta and Temecula had unemployment rates of an estimated 9.5 percent and 9.8 percent in January, respectively, according to the EDD.
Murrieta's jobless rate rose slightly from 9.4 percent in December, while Temecula's was flat during the same period.
"We intend to increase our employment levels. At this point we are on track to achieve a growth of 15 percent for 2011," said Roy Paulson, president and chief executive of Temecula-based Paulson Manufacturing Corp.
The firm makes shields on helmets worn by firefighters, electric arc flash shields for high-voltage line workers, splash protection "bubbles" for orthopedic surgeons and body shields for bomb squads and riot police.
The city of Murrieta is seeing a surge in hiring on a number of fronts, said Bruce Coleman, Murrieta's economic development director.
Charlotte, N.C.-based Hendrick Automotive Group recently announced plans to open a BMW dealership by May, and Loma Linda University Medical Center-Murrieta is set to add 500 workers as it readies to open later this month, Coleman said. "It reflects that the incomes are here."
Nationwide, companies added more workers in February than in any month in almost a year ---- a turning point for the economy that finally pushed the unemployment rate below 9 percent. Economists say the stronger hiring should endure all year. The 222,000 jobs the private sector created more than offset layoffs by financially squeezed state and local governments. They slashed 30,000 jobs, the most since November.
"Bottom line: The labor market is turning the corner," said Michael Darda, chief economist at MKM Partners, an economic research firm.

Crazy Birthers Rally Outside The White House, Threaten to Lynch POTUS
Yesterday, a small group of right-wing demonstrators gathered in front of the White House at a rally scheduled to coincide with the visit of a number of sheriffs who were in Washington, D.C., to protest President Obama's executive action on immigration.
One activist who was filming the rally spoke to several attendees who said they wanted to lynch Obama.
Among the remarks picked up by the cameraman:
"Hang the traitor!"
"Hang the lying Kenyan traitor!"
"We've got rope."
"Plenty of trees in the front yard, wouldn't be the first one hung on one of them trees."
"Whatever happened to those good ol' days?"
"Don't stab his neck, you watch him choke to death."
"He's just biding his time until Satan takes him home to where he belongs."

States' Purchasing Power Can Improve Substance Abuse Treatment Care
Promoting the use of evidence-based practice in substance abuse disorder treatment among states
On December 10, 2004, the Center for Health Care Strategies convened a meeting on the use by states of purchasing levers to support better implementation of evidence-based practices in the treatment of substance-use disorders.
States are the largest purchasers of treatment services and therefore will play a central role in improving treatment quality.
Key Results
The meeting explored:
- Existing Models:
- The initial Center for Health Care Strategies/Legal Action Center research concluded that there are few if any good models of the effective use by states of purchasing levers specifically to support evidence-based practices. However, a small number of states have begun to experiment with giving financial incentives for performance on certain indicators.
- Potential Incentives to Promote the Use of Evidence-Based Practices:
- States are using—or are exploring using—different types of incentives to promote the use of evidence-based practices in substance-use disorder treatment. Participants at the meeting described five such types:
- Financial payments (pay-for-performance).
- Relief from regulatory requirements.
- Allowing an advantage in a competitive bidding process.
- Providing infrastructure support (including free training in evidence-based practices).
- Recognition for providing evidence-based care.
- Challenges to the Use of Purchasing Levers:
- There are four main categories of challenges to effective state use of evidence-based practice purchasing levers:
- leadership for change
- coordination and cooperation among providers
- financing
- training/technical assistance in the use of evidence-based practices.
- There are four main categories of challenges to effective state use of evidence-based practice purchasing levers:

Beyond traditional cyberdefences
Traditional anti-malware tools rely on security vendors having first analysed the malware to extract signatures, which are then regularly updated on customers' systems. But what about new and unknown malware, which could be used by cybercriminals to execute a zero-day attack? Or encrypted/polymorphic malware code that hides its nature and changes each time it runs, avoiding detection by constantly mutating? Counteracting such malware requires a method of detecting potential threats in real time, or near-real-time. This is where automatic malware analysis — and, more generally, next-generation threat protection — comes in.
One style of automatic malware analysis creates a quarantined virtual execution environment (also known as a 'sandbox') that replicates the (usually Windows-based) target for suspected malware and observes its behaviour — extracting details about the payload that can be translated into a signature, and looking for attempts to establish contact with command-and-control servers, for example.
Naturally, cybercriminals are aware of such techniques, and develop ways to detect whether their malicious code is being analysed in a virtual environment, biding its time before infecting the ultimate target. Tricks used by VM-aware malware include looking for human interaction (mouse clicks, responses to dialogue boxes), evading malware analysis schedules, or detecting the characteristic signs of a virtual environment.
FireEye's Enrique Salem believes his company's 'multi-vector execution' (MVX) solution is keeping pace with the bad guys in this respect: "The art for us is that we know how to emulate the user. We do detection on the inbound, and on anything that's trying to communicate. We don't need to know what the attack looks like beforehand: we just need to know the behaviours that are malicious."
Key to the success of this and any other cybersecurity solution is the ability to analyse a wide range of file types and behaviours, and steer an optimal path between identifying false positives (which interfere with legitimate business processes) and false negatives (which leave the organisation open to attack). Security vendors will ideally co-ordinate the (anonymised, metadata-based) threat intelligence gathered from their customers and partners in a cloud-based repository, creating a positive feedback loop into the overall threat protection system.
Other solutions target different levels of the IT stack — from monitoring network packets and flows for suspicious behaviour, up to application controls. To be truly effective, a next-generation threat protection system needs to be able to collate multi-faceted intelligence — about spear-phishing emails, suspicious files, contact with external command-and-control servers and anomalous flows of data (often encrypted) out of the network, for example — to build up a complete picture of an advanced persistent attack and defeat it.
These next-generation threat protection solutions (leading vendors of which are covered below) form an additional line of defence on top of traditional firewalls, intrusion prevention systems, secure email/web gateways and endpoint protection solutions. It's important to note that both approaches are required to deliver an acceptable level of security: think of traditional anti-malware tools as uniformed police chasing and apprehending known villains, and the next-generation solutions as plain-clothes detectives seeking shadowy wrongdoers who have yet to acquire a criminal record.
Next-generation threat protection: approaches and vendors
Next-generation threat protection solutions typically come as custom-built rackmount appliances that sit inside an organisation's network and inspect inbound and outbound email, web and file-share traffic, and also files at rest, for suspicious behaviour or characteristics in near-real/real time. Cloud-based services are also available to do a similar job for smaller businesses that don't want to invest in the high-performance hardware required, although they'll need to be aware of potential issues with file-type coverage, scalability and data protection.
Research firm Gartner has recently made a useful classification of approaches to next-generation threat defence, based on a 3-by-2 matrix of where to look (at network traffic, malware payloads or endpoints) and the timescale involved (near-real/real time or post-compromise):
This leads to five styles of advanced threat defence, based on the intersections of the rows and columns (the payload/post-compromise cell clearly being irrelevant):
Network Traffic Analysis
Analysing network protocol and/or content traffic in real time allows security professionals to establish a baseline for 'normal' activity so that anomalous patterns can be detected. Leading vendors in this area, according to Gartner, include Arbor Networks, Damballa, Fidelis Cybersecurity Solutions, Lancope and Sourcefire (now part of Cisco).
Network Forensics
Incident response teams, in particular, need access to network forensics tools that perform full-packet capture and metadata extraction, and provide sophisticated analytics and reporting capability, along with high-capacity storage. Leading vendors in this area, according to Gartner, include Solera (a Blue Coat company) and RSA NetWitness.
Payload Analysis
This is where the aforementioned sandboxing solution, which can reside in an on-premise appliance or (with caveats) in the cloud, comes in. Malware behaviour is observed and characterised in near-real-time, capturing threats that are missed by signature-based tools. Leading vendors in this area, according to Gartner, include: AhnLab, Check Point (ThreatCloud Emulation Service), FireEye, Lastline, McAfee, Palo Alto Networks (WildFire), ThreatGRID and Trend Micro (Deep Discovery).
Endpoint Behaviour Analysis
Although it can be an operational headache, endpoint behaviour analysis (in the form of application virtualisation and containment, system configuration monitoring, memory monitoring, process monitoring and application whitelisting) can offer protection to mobile devices that are off the enterprise network. There are potential issues in the shape of OS support and device resource usage though. Leading vendors in this area, according to Gartner, include: Blue Ridge Networks, Bromium, Invincea, Sandboxie and Trustware (application containment); Cyvera, ManTech/HBGary (Digital DNA) and RSA Ecat (memory monitoring); and Triumfant (system configuration & process monitoring).
Endpoint Forensics
On-device data-collection agents can help incident response teams characterise malware attacks, but this type of solution does not block attacks as they occur, and places another heavy operational burden on the IT team. Leading vendors in this area, according to Gartner, include Bit9, Carbon Black, Guidance Software (EnCase Analytics), Mandiant and ManTech/HBGary (Responder Pro).
As Gartner points out, an optimal next-generation threat protection strategy will usually involve at least two of these 'styles' — for example network traffic analysis plus network forensics, or payload analysis and network forensics.

PORTLAND The Portland Public Schools 2013-2014 budget proposal was released Monday, and it suggests adding 66 staff positions in the district.
At $487 million, the funding level is relatively stable, but the budget would not be enough to build back cut programs and class sizes.
Superintendent Carole Smith said state support for K-12 schools will halt years of reductions and supporting targeted investments in student achievement gains.
Meanwhile federal funding to Portland schools will be cut by about $2.5 million, due to sequestration and formula cuts.

We'll be visiting friend in Spain soon and they're worried that we won't all fit in their car. They have a European Toyota Corolla and we'll be four adults and one car seat. Does anyone know if we will fit or not fit in their car?
Thanks so much!
One adult would have to sit in the middle right next to the car seat. Depending on the size of the seat as well as the person sitting on the other side, it will most likely be very cozy and all bags would have to go into the trunk. It won't be comfortable but I don't see why it shouldn't work; as long as the car is for 5 people, that is.

Written by Jeff Thredgold, President, Thredgold Economic Associates
Economic Consultant to Vectra Bank Colorado
Disappointing U.S. employment gains during March will provide the Federal Reserve greater support for leaving its key interest rate…the federal funds rate… at an historic low target range of 0.00%-0.25%. Such a level has been in place since December 2008. At the same time, however, it will increase financial market expectation of the Fed providing another extraordinary money creation program, referred to as "quantitative easing."
Employment gains in March were much weaker than expected. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke suggested in recent weeks that jobs gains could slow sharply as the economy was not all that robust.
The Federal Reserve will face rising pressure to bring another round of additional monetary stimulus. However, the Fed's leadership is likely to remain patient and closely examine additional economic and financial data in coming weeks.
The Fed's Open Market Committee is on record that it expects its key interest rate to stay unchanged until late 2014. At the same time, the Fed would like to be able to move that rate higher sooner should U.S. economic performance surprise on the upside.
The Colorado unemployment rate—the most heavily weighted component of the Vectra Bank Colorado Small Business Index for Colorado—was estimated at 7.8% in the most recent month, unchanged from the rate of the prior month. The 7.8% rate compares to the 8.6% rate 12 months ago. A lower Colorado jobless rate is a negative contributor to the Index as it suggests decreased access to labor for small businesses. Other associated factors typically tied to a lower unemployment rate, such as greater job creation, greater income gains and higher retail sales, pull the Index higher.
The state's unemployment rate averaged 8.3% during 2011, 8.9% during 2010, 8.1% during 2009, 4.8% in 2008, 3.7% in 2007, and 4.3% in 2006. Colorado's jobless rate averaged 4.6% between 1990 and 2005.
The last 12 months saw an estimated increase in Colorado employment of 48,200 jobs. This increase compares to a revised gain of 46,800 jobs in the prior year-over-year period. Colorado gained 33,000 jobs in 2011, lost 23,300 jobs in 2010, lost 104,700 jobs in 2009, added 19,000 jobs in 2008, added 52,200 jobs in 2007, and added 53,100 jobs in 2006.
The Vectra Bank Colorado Small Business Index for Colorado measured 117.8 in March 2012, up from a revised 117.7 in February 2012. The Index measures business conditions from the viewpoint of the Colorado small business owner or manager.
A higher Index number is associated with more favorable business conditions for Colorado's small businesses. The Index uses 100.0 for calendar year 1997 as its base year. The Index also includes revisions to various historical and new forecast components as they become available.
The U.S. economy's net addition of 120,000 jobs during March 2012 was much weaker than expected. The consensus of forecasting economists was for a 210,000 job rise. The nation's unemployment rate dipped to 8.2% in March, a three-year low. The prior month's rate was 8.3%.
More than 1.1 million net new jobs have been added in the U.S. economy over the past six months, with a gain of roughly 3.5 million net new jobs since the end of 2009. At the same time, such gains represent only 41% of the 8.5 million net jobs lost during the Great Recession, which ran from December 2007 to June 2009.
U.S economic growth since the recovery officially began has been the weakest since the 1940s. It remains to be seen whether solid job gains…which lead to stronger consumer spending…will be able to lead U.S. economic growth higher.
The American economy grew at a 3.0% real (after inflation) annual rate during 2010, only to see growth slow to a 1.7% real pace in 2011. Most forecasts see real U.S. economic growth this year near 2.2%-2.5%, better than the prior year, but substandard as it relates to prior economic recoveries.
U.S. and global economic performance are components of the Zions Bank Small Business Index for Colorado. U.S. job gains and U.S. and global economic performance are components of the U.S. Business Index.
The April 2012 Vectra Bank Colorado Small Business Index for Colorado will be released on May 10, 2012.

Quality emerges as recession-proof
Packaged snack industry poised for growth
Casual organic users continue to back off organics in favor of other healthy alternatives, but dyed-in-the-wool organic shoppers remain committed to organic purchases.
According to a new report from The Hartman Group, the number of consumers who use organic products at least occasionally slid from 73% in 2006 to 69% in 2008. The report also indicates that "core" organic consumers represented 58% of regular users in 2008 while "mid-level" (or regular) users represented 37%, reversing a trend established in 2006 when 60% were mid-level consumers and 37% were core consumers.
"The core are becoming even more engaged in purchasing organics and are moving into non-food categories as well," says the report. "But because of economic constraints, as well as their reluctance to buy significant quantities of organic packaged products, the mid-level [numbers] are leveling off the number of organic product categories purchased."
The report, titled "Current State of the Organic Consumer," shows that 71% of organic consumers believe store brand organics are equal to (60%) or better than (11%) their national brand counterparts. Surveys in the report also indicated a shift in where organic purchases are made. That is, consumers are making more of their organic purchases at supercenters/discount stores and club stores. Between 2005 and 2008, the number of shoppers making organic purchases at a grocery store during the previous 30 days jumped from 58% to 72%. In contrast, the number of purchases made in natural food stores fell from 49% to 29% during the same period.
Quality emerges as recession-proof
Even when the recession's in the history books, quality, value and nutrition may reign in grocery aisles.
A recent study by IBM reveals that in spite of tough economic times, Americans at all income levels refuse to sacrifice quality, value and nutrition when it comes to their food and health and beauty purchases. However, the study also found that the economy has led shoppers to take a closer look at the brands they typically purchase, the stores they frequent and even their preferred packaging to find new ways to save money-habits that may linger even as the recession dissipates.
The survey, encompassing consumers earning anywhere between $20,000 and $100,000+ annually, found that 72% of consumers are more concerned with quality than price while shopping, while nine out of 10 surveyed say that value and nutrition will be of equal or greater importance when the recession ends.
Other parts of the IBM survey show that consumers shop around for deals, remain flexible on brands in order to put nutrition and value first, and are reluctant to go without certain items, including such as meat, poultry or coffee. Of those surveyed, 49% are shopping at more stores in search of the best deal, 35% have changed grocery stores altogether and 34% are choosing less expensive brands of health and personal care products rather than forgoing these products altogether.
The survey also asked consumers how they would spend an extra $10, to which 51% of those surveyed said they would most likely purchase more of the items on their shopping list or buy the products in bulk packages. Further, 13% of those making less than $45,000 annually said they would purchase more convenient versions of foods already on their list, such as pre-cut vegetables. Across all annual income segments, the top splurge item among consumers was dessert foods.
Packaged snack industry poised for growth
Dining out, fewer opportunities for sit-down meals may help snack foods' cause.
Estimating U.S. retail sales of packaged snacks at $68 billion in 2008, "Packaging Facts" projects that sales will approach $82 billion by 2013, representing a total market increase of 20%. Despite the effects of global recession, the report from Marigny Research Group indicates that Americans are snacking more than ever, a trend that's helped by pull-backs in restaurant dining and fewer opportunities to enjoy sit-down meals.
As the sluggish economy continues to breed fears of layoffs, health insurance woes and other worries, snack consumers continue to embrace value and other perceived benefits, including "whole" ingredients, "better for you" recipes and green production practices. While low prices are one way to reach this consumer, the survey also points out that consumers are willing to spend just a little more for organic and premium snack treats, perhaps in an effort to boost their flagging spirits over economic doldrums.

After about six grade skip offers, I had an entire graduating class 'anti' me in prayer and social skills!!
Has anyone heard of these programs before?
Like a girl learned up in helpfulness; exceeding ones potential by helping lots of people until everyone is exceeding their potential together.
And then 'anti-prayed' as a girl that prays positive things every night and believes in the golden rule and following the ten commandments? Basically an anti-christ behavior authorized by a school system against me for six years.
I would like to know what people know about this .. any ideas or theories?
There's a lot more I would like to talk about if people are interested or know why this would be done!!! I'm trying to get to my state board of education to talk about it!!!

Pepsi Pulse Mixtapes of the Month: November 2013
There was a time when mixtapes were loose collections of songs not good enough to make an album. Those days are over. In 2013, an age where artists recognize that the road to stardom is paved with free music, mixtapes have become full, original bodies of music in their own right.
But all that free music also means discovering something truly worth your time can be harder than finding a needle in a digital haystack. That's why we've joined forces with PepsiPulse. Our new "Mixtapes of the Month" series will narrow down the previous 30 days (give or take) to three projects guaranteed to ensure some of the game's best work doesn't pass you by.
The latest selection features projects from Najee, Radical Something, Perrion and The Procussions. Click here to visit PepsiPulse and check out more about our selections.

no you cant,i believe its very hard to reach that power level w/o swapping for any turbo thats larger.to come close you would atleast need a huge intercooler, ypipe tubes,meth-inj,crank pulley,maybe even a intake as long as you can get a good tune.
but ken, he has an 06, so he does not need the u/p to be replaced, it is unrestricted anyhow, I assumed the gt spec exhaust was a CBE setup, so that coupled with the invidia DP would be a tbe essentially.
You are right. I missed where he listed his mods. I clicked on his car in his profile and everything is stock in there.
Get a good tune and you will hit 240 whp easily. It isn't about the HP though it is the TQ that you want. I would rather have 100 WHP and 400 TQ any day of the week.

P.S. Suryanarayana
SINGAPORE: Thailand's deposed Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who was disenfranchised as a political leader in a court ruling in Bangkok on Wednesday night, has urged the military junta to "hold general elections as soon as possible".
With Mr. Thaksin's dismayed Thai Rak Thai Party deciding to stay "calm" and refrain from staging any mass protest, the situation remained peaceful across the country. With the overnight judgment being followed by a Buddhist celebration on Thursday, the overall mood across Thailand remained one of apparent introspection.
Gen. Sonthi Boonyaratglin and his Council for National Security (CNS) stepped up the security alert. Unprecedented security arrangements had been put in place across Thailand on Wednesday at the time of the judgment that was delivered over nine hours.
Mr. Thaksin, in a post-verdict statement from London, his home in self-imposed exile, said on Thursday he would "as party leader, humbly accept the ruling".
His statement was read out in Bangkok by a spokesman.
The Constitutional Court had, in a unanimous judgment, found Mr. Thaksin and his party guilty of the charges of electoral fraud.
The case relates to the allegations that the party had funded some small and rootless parties to contest the general election in April last year. The then Opposition Democrat Party had boycotted the poll. The Court ordered the immediate dissolution of Thai Rak Thai on the ground that it "is not a genuine party with any ideology".

|07.06.10 at 8:47 am ET
LeBron James showed up at his Nike Skills Academy on Monday, a day earlier than expected, and took part in a late-afternoon workout as the league awaits a decision on where he will play next season. James was not expected until Tuesday at the camp, which features some of the nation's top college and high school players working out in James' hometown of Akron, Ohio.
Hornets star Chris Paul looked on as James ran drills and played 5-on-5 games for two hours. Before leaving the gym, James declined comment to a reporter.
James is not expected to announce his plans until after the conclusion of the camp Wednesday. Thursday is the first day teams can officially sign free agents.

Who's qualified for State prior to Divisionals?
Here's a nice little post from the Billings Gazette with lists of who has prequalified for state for all of the classes that have those standards.
A comparison of Newspaper coverage of track events
Through great strategy and a balanced team the Bozeman Hawks won the Great Falls Optimist Invitational for the first time in many years. The "Chicks Meet" is a chance for all of the AA teams to come together for a State Meet Preview. For the second year in a row the conditions were awful with continuous snow, sleet, or rain. Team huddled on the concrete under the bleachers trying to stay dry and warm but consistently wandered out into the elements to cheer on their friends. Here's a link to a story at the Great Falls Gazette.
The MT Standard in Butte had nice coverage of the boy's meet with an emphasis on local sprinter, Dalton Daum. Looks like Butte had much nicer weather than Great Falls.
I don't know why the Chronicle has had such poor coverage this year. Track had 225 athletes start this year and many of their parents are community leaders with businesses that used to support the paper through advertising.

From Montana Girls at NTN/NXN
2014–Winter Storm Bozeman
2014 was the strongest year ever for Montana girls with 11 sub 18 performers and a new state best of 16:33 by Makena Morley at the Class B State Meet. At the NXNNW Regional meet Makena returned with her sister Bryn along with Annie Hill of Glacier. All three challenged for leadership in the race and Annie Hill finished on top for Montana as they ran an impressive 4-5-6.. All three turned down their individual invitation to NXN to try for a Footlocker berth in the Mountain Region in December. Also placing in the exclusive top 21 was 11th place Piper Meuwissen for the 2nd year running. The race was won by 6A Oregon State Champ Ella Donahu who had been ranked 22nd nationally going into the meet.
In addition to the the state's nationally ranked super stars, 15 of the top twenty girls from the Montana State Meet went to NXNNW where they made an impressive showing in all the races. Since the times were meaningless at NXN this year due to 10" of snow (yes really) I'll just list each girl's best three mile time this year for a well-established MT race, along with their place at NXN. Kaitlin and Sarah Latcham competed in the open race with their teams so their places are just estimates for the Championship race.

63 Sarah Foster 12 Bozeman 18:20 Butte

95 Sarah Latcham 12 Whitefish 18:45 State
In 2014 5 varsity squads represented the Big Sky. AA Champs Bozeman were joined by Runnerup Hellgate in the Championship race, while Flathead, Billings Senior and Whitefish all brought teams to the Open race. In the 2014 regular season Bozeman bypassed some of the bigger invitationals that they have attended in the past. None the less at their opening meet at the Cardinal Classic in Soda Springs, Idaho the Bozeman girls bested 21 teams from Idaho, Utah and Wyoming without the help of Piper Meuwissen. Bridget Creel won the Varsity meet, while Maddie Vilhauer showed strength in the JV race that would earn her a varsity spot down the line. At the Mountain West Invitational the team took 2nd to Coeur D'Alene (110/121) once again without Piper who had a fall cold. Finally at the Butte Invitational the team ran their full varsity squad. The Missoula teams showed up in force along with Bailee Parker of West Yellowstone who had yet to face competition. Typically the weather in Butte for this meet is windy and cold, but on this day the weather conditions were ideal and personal bests, and course records fell as the top dogs tangled. Each of the Bozeman girls got into gutty races in their parts of the field. Marley May ended up as Bozeman's fifth and nudged under 19:00 for the first time. Kenneni Wiegand and Sarah Foster each held their own in the hungry field and the team ran an 18:07 team average which I believe is the best average ever in a traditionally formatted race. Eventual state runner up Hellgate placed 2nd behind a strong showing by Samantha Sayer. All of the state's leading teams met at the 7v7 Invitational with Bozeman taking the win, Hellgate, Flathead and Glacier were all quite close, but Flathead ended up 2nd showing how close the race for the podium was going to be at the state meet. The team race at the state meet ended up close, but it wasn't between Hellgate, Glacier and Flathead–It was between Hellgate and Bozeman. Bozeman ended up winning State for the 8th consecutive year by just two points. Needless to say there was some nail biting before the results were announced. Hellgate's Samantha Sayer had the lowest stick of the two teams while Phoebe Jacques from Bozeman finished one place in front of Hellgate's 5th in the twentieth slot showing that cross country really is a team race all the way to the 7th runner. Flathead took the 3rd podium position behind a strong 7th place finish from freshman Kaitlin Wreide. Bozeman's 18:35 team average tied Billings Senior for fourth best in the state ever, while Hellgate's crew moved into the 7th best ever with their average of 18:39.

11th at NXN Northwest
Officially named Winter Storm Bozeman brought chaos to Boise in 2014. Top notch meet volunteers were working furiously to plow 10" of fresh snow from the course during Friday's course walkthroughs. Because the start was so huge, after some modifications to the course this year, the crew left that alone and racers had to start through 400m of ankle freezing snow. Fewer teams were seeded in the Championship race to allow more high powered individuals than ever before and it made it difficult for spectators to figure out what was happening with the team scores. Fiftieth in the race was roughly 25th in team scoring. In most years you would just subtract out about 10 runners at 50th place. After the start the top 6 runners broke away while the rest of the racers were trapped in the crush looking for decent footing in the mashed potato snow. The course occasionally had decent footing, but girls in a pack couldn't get to it. Bozeman's Piper Meuwissen found a way to work her way up through the pack and finished 11th overall with a team score of 3. Bridget Creel and Kenneni Wiegand worked together to pass dozens of girls on both sides throughout the race. Once Sarah Foster and Marley way found a way to run through the snow with their long legs they too were moving up through the pack. Maddie Vilhauer ran a strong last mile and everyone on the team was charging hard to the finish line. Alas the team did not finish in the auto qualifying spots, but their 4th place finish gave the 5 returners a taste for more. Each of the girls 'went into the tent' to fill out the Nike forms with their shoe size, uniform size etc in case of the elusive at-large bid. Hellgate finished 11th in the Championship race. Camas, Washington, and Coeur D'alene, Idaho had impressive performances to take the team auto-qualifiers.
Girl's team takes 4th and boys team takes 15th at NXNNW 2014
The full results are at http://www.runnerspace.com/nxnnw. Milesplit has some amazing videos of the all the races if you are a member. Congrats to Piper for breaking into the elusive top 21 for the 2nd year in a row.

End of Year XC Banquet
Thursday is the end of the year XC banquet at the south gym at BHS at 6:00. I hope everyone got their letters with the details from the school. Senior parents are likely busy putting together posters for their athletes and everyone is planning a healthy potluck dish or two. As parents we always like to recognize our coaches and Jill Hamilton will have some cards to sign along with some bags. There are five coaches this year.
As a parent I am so proud of both the Girls and Boys teams for their amazing accomplishment this year. Two young teams overcame incredible pressure and expectations to again deliver a STATE XC CHAMPIONSHIP to BHS. NC

Sail down the Pacific Coast?

Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts
Rep Power:
Not a trip for a beginner; if you are a beginner or even and advanced sailor you should be extremely careful in the decision to sail down the coast. Puget Sound alone can be very trecharous going out to the Pacific (from what I have heard) and if you don't time the weather correctly there is little shelter along the coast from Washington all the way to Los Angeles. Just a week ago a sailor who was returning from Hawaii who had just won the Singlehanded Trans-Pac (from SF to HI) abandoned 300 miles west of SF. Luckily was picked up by a cargo ship. He had over 35 years of experience and an extremely well equipped boat. The gale force winds had the ocean up to 20-30' seas and breaking waves.
I'm not saying it can't be done; but be sure you, your boat, and your crew are up for it. Study the wind patterns and plan very carefully before you commit to making the trip. Know where you can find shelter and be sure you can enter those places with rough seas; many ports become blocked by breaking surf when the seas are heavy.

University Of Denver Neuropsychologist Says Most Concussions Deliver 95g's
Football players often receive a g-force of 103 when hit during a game
Head injury expert Kim Gorgens, a neuropsychologist at the University of Denver (DU), says that most concussions deliver 95 g's to the human body upon impact. G-force is a unit of force equal to the force exerted by gravity. In addition, the average football player receives 103 g's when hit during a game. In comparison, the average g-force experienced by military fighter pilots is nine g's.
Gorgens discussed the impact of concussions on children during a recent presentation at TEDxDU on the University of Denver campus. TEDx stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design and is an independently organized event licensed by the internationally recognized TED organization.
To watch Gorgens' full presentation, visit www.tedxdu.com.
Also appearing at TEDxDU was internationally-known still photographer Aaron Huey. Huey̢蠫a DU graduate̢蠫visually chronicled the plight of Native Americans. Specifically, Huey relates the fight for survival on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Aaron began photographing on Pine Ridge as part of a story on poverty in America, but it has captured his passion for five years.
TEDxDU featured 18 speakers and performers discussing the world's most pressing issues from clean water and combating poverty to legal reform and HIV/AIDS.
"DU wants to be part of the solution," Chancellor Robert Coombe says. "We are committed to tackling the great challenges of the day and TEDxDU allows us to be purposeful in creating awareness around the global issues facing our world."
Presentations included the world's fastest electric motorcycle and new research being conducted on Lou Gehrig's disease. Other presenters were Stephen Brackett and Jamie Laurie, known to their fans as Brer Rabbit and Jonny 5 of the Denver-based band Flobots, and The Spirituals Project Choir.

A site to help students understand how diverse the world is - and particularly, that the English language is not the dominant language in the world! The use of infographics - data presented visually - help students compare languages across the world.

Today was an endurance running day. I usually go on lengthy runs on Fridays for a few reasons. First, the extra cardio really helps get the blood circulating to my legs, thus helping recovery. If I had a hitting session, I would have done the run Post-hit. Since I already have some lactic acid build up, this helps build my "thresh hold" for pain. Definitely hard to keep going after a session. Probably won't go as long once the league starts, but this is what "off season" is for. Saturday is an off day, and Sunday is a Strength day..So I'll have plenty of time to recover for Monday's endurance run. Lastly, after a long week at work. The only thing I want to do is go for a long run to clear my head, and relieve some stress. Nothing like it.
So here are the stats
Uploaded with
Went alot faster than I thought, but the RPE was 3 to 4. So I wasn't huffing and puffing lol. Overall, felt good. Definitely going to sleep well tonight
I use Strava for my workouts, so if any of you have an account, feel free to follow and I'll be sure to follow back..Strava is pretty much Facebook for runners and cyclists lol
Best Post workout drink for hydration...ever!
Uploaded with
Really good, and filled with electrolytes. Skip the powerade and pick some of this stuff up!!
So quickly...Here's what I use and why I use it.
Pure storm GT LTD.
I've used babolat pretty much my entire life.since I was 12. ( since 2002--Used Wilson from 2000-2002) and sort of slowly transitioned to more "player" like racquet over the course of that time. Being a huge Roddick fan, I started with the PD+. Switched to the PDR+ cortex, then Pure control +, PST+, PSTGT+, and then to the LTD. I believe my highest ranking was in the 30s (Boys 16s) in the mid west, and not sure on the national ranking. I'm assuming it was very low lol.
I've always been a big hitter, and loved taking huge cuts at the ball..so power was never problem. People kept telling me I needed to switch..so I listened eventually--and couldn't be happier. Though I take my PDR+ out on occasion.
Uploaded with
LTD, to me, has the perfect blend of precision and power. As you can see I use a syntec grip as opposed to the leather. No big reason really, I just grew up using syntec and prefer it. Leather is awesome, but the LTD feels stiffer with it on. I dunno.
I also wrap my grip 1/2 to 3/4 of the way up lol. Funny story actually. I was a big fan of Ginepri in 2004-2005 when he was on his glory run. I noticed he did it and being the impressionable 15yr old I was, I simply copied him. I'm still a fan, but wrapping this way is more of "good luck" or superstition type deal.
I use Kirschbaum super smash spiky 17g. It was the closet thing to the original duralast that Nadal used. however, the spin potential of SSS definitely aids to the LTD dense string pattern.

Wyoming Town Of 1 Sold At Auction
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Buford, Wyoming has been billed as America's smallest town, with a convenience store, gas station and a population of one: the town's owner, Don Sammons. But change is about to come to Buford. When its one resident decided to move, he put the town up for auction. Bids came from around the world, and now Buford has been sold to a man from Vietnam for $900,000, who said owning a piece of property in the U.S. has been my dream. It's MORNING EDITION.

"The climate is currently warming faster than the worst case known from the fossil record, about 56 million years ago, when temperatures rose about 6 degrees over 1000 years. If emissions continue it is not unreasonable to expect warming of 5.5 degrees by the end of this century."
Scientists expect ocean oxygen levels to decline by about six per cent for every one degree increase in temperature and areas in the sea which are low in oxygen to grow by at least 50 per cent. This has major implications for the world's most productive fishing waters in the cool temperate regions. The seas provide around one sixth of humanity's protein food and any loss in fisheries production will have a direct impact on us, he adds.
Besides the changes induced by carbon emissions, the oceans are also under assault from over-fishing, increased UV exposure, toxic pollution, alien species and disease. The combined effect is to weaken the ability of many species to withstand these multiple stresses.
Another risk is that warming will unlock vast reserves of frozen methane in the seabed, triggering uncontrollable, runaway global warming.
"In the face of such terrifying changes even large scale interventions such as establishment of very large networks of Marine Protected Areas are unlikely to be effective," Mike cautions. "On a global scale, an immediate reduction in CO2 emissions is essential to minimize future human-induced climate change."
The oceans can also play a role in the proposed solution of eliminating carbon emissions, by producing clean energy from wind, wave and tide potentially by triggering phytoplankton blooms with fertilisers to absorb more carbon from the atmosphere, or using the seabed to store CO2. However these
