The United States Supreme Court and the Iowa Supreme Court each have ruled that automatic, mandatory sentences designed for adults may not be applied to youthful capital offenders. There are some 17 murderers in prison who were under 18 years of age when they committed their offense. One of them is Rene Zarate of Storm Lake, who was convicted of murdering Jorge Ramos 13 years ago by stabbing him nearly 50 times. He was 17 at the time.
There he goes again. Gov. Terry Branstad on Monday was asked at his weekly press conference about not wanting any of the estimated 57,000 homeless Latin American children to be held even temporarily in Iowa. The governor repeated his false assertion: "The federal government needs to secure the border and expedite the process to send them back as quickly as possible."
Of course, he blamed the humanitarian crisis on President Obama.

The last three weekends have been spent on the road. Two trips to the Twin Cities for weddings on successive weeks brought curses for the freeway traffic. On one trip I was right on schedule until I met the outer ring of Interstate Hades they call I-494. It took me nearly two hours to get from the south side of the metro to the north side.
By DON BEHM
Yes, the world all knows,
That Iowa is where the tall corn grows,
Tropic heat and arctic cold,
A Texas energy company wants to run an oil pipeline from North Dakota to Illinois with Storm Lake right along the route. So we emailed and called Energy Transfer Partners to determine what the precise route is. Will it go near the lake or the city? Or will it be several miles from town? The company claims it has notified all land owners along the proposed route. But representatives have yet to tell us, at least, where the pipe will go. We do not understand why.
By Joey Aguirre
It started in room 321 of the "L" apartments at Grand View University. James Flaws, the then-coach of Storm Lake St. Mary's softball team, was visiting his cousin, Josh, his future assistant and my roommate at the time.
What else could Gov. Terry Branstad say when asked Monday whether Iowa would accept homeless children from Latin America caught trying to enter Texas illegally? "The first thing we want is to secure the border," the Iowa Republican said at his Monday press conference. This is an election year, and that is the election line.
Secure the border.
Few things in this life more resemble the damnation of Hades than driving in the Twin Cities of Minnesota, a place I loved so well. Having a tooth pulled? At least you have something to show for it. Getting free tickets to a Christian rock concert with a set of new tires? Maybe you could scalp them to an innocent soul.
The Des Moines Register was pretty tough on Sac County Attorney Ben Smith in a couple recent editorials for attempting to deny Tracey Richter a source of income while she serves a life sentence in prison for murdering Dustin Wehde in Early 13 years ago. The Register objected to Smith cleaning out Richter's commissary and phone accounts as she owes the state more than $200,000 in court costs and victim restitution.

In the town I used to work in, he would not have even been charged. The cops would have said that since he had been drinking they could not have made the charges stick.

Must see Places in Franfurt
I am going to Frankfurt in Feb, and want to see if there is something there that I should not miss. Thanks
I am going to Frankfurt in Feb, and want to see if there is something there that I should not miss. Thanks
It does kind of depend on your interests, so not sure if I should recommend any museums or not, or which ones, but the top ones are: Staedel Leibieg Haus The Schirn Film Museum
Judengasse Museum Museum of Modern Art Other important sites would be the Kaiserdom, where the election of the Holy Roman Emperors took place since 1152, and the coronations since 1562, (climb the steeple built in 1415), the Emperors Hall with the full portraits of 52 of the Emperors - located in the Roemer which is the city hall for Frankfurt since 1405, Alte Nikolai - built in 1290, Deutsche Orden Church (Teutonic Order of Knights) - built in 1309, the Karmeliter Cloister with the wall paintings done by Joerg Ratgeb in 1513-1521, Eschenheimer Turm - guard tower built in 1425, Alte Oper - built in 1880, the Jewish Holocaust Memorial Wall, the Staufen Mauer (built in 1180, used as the Jewish Ghetto Wall from 1462-1810), the Paulskirche - where the 1st freely elected parliament took place in Germany in 1848, the Klein Markt Halle - indoor produce market + meats, cheeses, bakeries, chocolates, spices, and more, the Palmengarten, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, go up on the Main Tower, the Berger strasse, the farmers market on the Konstablerwache on Thur. & Sat. (also on the Schiller Str. on Fri.) visit Sachsenhausen on a Fri. or Sat. night. If you have time and it is a weekend, go to the neighborhood of Hoechst and see the Justinus Church. Consecrated in 850, it is the only church in Germany to have been used as a church ever since. Very Carolingen inside, with fabulous pillars. The Baroque organ is also beautiful. Hoechst itself is like stepping back in time, with houses set up on the city walls, lots of fachwerk, a schloss, etc.

I didn't think this was anything special. The mix of broccoli and rapini is good, but I found the lemon/shallot mixture too bland. If I make it again I'll try a squeeze of lemon to brighten it up, or maybe a good shot of garlic.
Made this with baby broccoli and broccoli rabe. Delicious! Loved the mixture of flavors.
I sprinkled just a tiny bit of lemon juice on this before serving and it tasted great.
Great vegetable dish, (if you enjoy rapini). Made it for a dinner party and unfortunately there was no leftovers for me the following day.
This has become a staple in our house. Often I just use broccoli, Rabe is not always easy to find locally and can be expesive.......but the shallots and lemon compliment many dishes. Love it!
The lemon and shallots were good flavors for the rapini, and the broccoli gave the dish a nice texture where rapini alone would have been more like greens. They're not kidding about the very large skillet...I did two batches of each veg in an 8-inch. Reheated beautifully, too.

After spending two seasons (1999-2000) as Utah State's head coach, Tom Peterson is beginning his third season as an assistant for the Aggies, after joining the staff in April, 2008. Peterson's title was elevated to associate head coach prior to the 2009 season.
Peterson has 30 years of coaching experience, including 21 as a head coach. Most recently, Peterson spent four years (2003-06) as the head coach of Brigham Young's men's volleyball program, leading the Cougars to the National Championship in 2004 and a national runner-up finish in 2003. In his 10 years as a men's head coach at the Division I level, Peterson's teams appeared in seven NCAA Final Fours.
Prior to his stint at BYU, Peterson spent one year as the women's head coach at New Mexico (2001) and two years as the head coach at Utah State, leading the Aggies to the Big West Conference Eastern Division Championship in 1999 and the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 2000, its first in school history. USU, which had just two winning campaigns in its previous 16 seasons prior to Peterson's arrival, received its first-ever top 25 ranking in 2000 and finished the year ranked 22nd.
Peterson began his coaching career at the University of Utah in 1980 as he spent three years as an assistant with the women's program and two years as the head coach of the men's club team. He also spent one season as a women's assistant and another as a men's assistant at BYU before becoming the head coach of the men's club team, leading the Cougars to the 1986, 1987 and 1988 National Collegiate Club Championship.
Peterson was then hired as the head coach of the men's program at Penn State, leading the Nittany Lions to five NCAA Final Four appearances, including the 1994 National Championship as he was named the NCAA Coach of the Year.
Following his stint at Penn State, Peterson spent two years as an assistant men's coach at BYU and three years as the women's head coach at Salt Lake Community College, leading the Bruins to a No. 7 nationally ranking during its inaugural 1997 season.
Peterson graduated from Brigham Young with a bachelor's degree in physical education in 1978. He then received his master's degree in professional leadership from BYU in 1982 and earned his doctoral degree in physical education administration, curriculum and instruction from BYU in 1992. He is married to the former Sheryl Rice of Bakersfield, Calif.

From the beaches of Dunkirk to the launch of Operation Overlord, the Channel saw continuous action during World War II, and was the world's most fought-over waterway. In this fascinating account, Robert Jackson offers a study of the Channel War from 1939–45, detailing the German threats to British shipping, the use of convoys and the extensive minelaying operations, as well as the Battle of Britain, the use of long-range artillery and everything in between.As well as offering a study of the furious Channel War battles, Jackson also reveals how the Channel was essential for the launch of Churchill's famed special forces Commandos, who, under the cover of darkness, launched raids on Occupied France as well as the Channel Islands.The Channel War bought together the Royal Navy and Air Force, as they both battled to defend England and prevent a much feared German invasion.

Scott Rolen's body lets him down again
Jul 19, 2010, 7:00 PM EDT
A bounce-back first half for one of baseball's surprise teams led to a much-deserved All-Star appearance, and all again seemed right in Scott Rolen's world. He appeared well on his way to his best season since 2004, and it was suddenly worth thinking about his Hall of Fame merits again.
And then July hit. Rolen missed two of the final three games before the All-Star break with back soreness. After playing in the Reds' first game back, he missed the next two with an illness of some sort. Now the team is also admitting that he's dealing with a right hamstring injury that required a cortisone shot. He'll miss his third straight game tonight, and he told the Cincinnati Enquirer that he's not sure how long he'll be out.
It could be a sign of things to come for Rolen. He played in 77 of the Reds' first 87 games, putting him on pace to reach 140 games for the first time since 2006. That was also the last time he went a year without spending time on the DL. In the three full years since, he's appeared in 112, 115 and 128 games. 2003 was the last season in which Rolen played in 150 games.
Rolen, though, is 35, and he didn't figure to suddenly become more durable with age. And the Reds are going to be in serious trouble if he can't stay relatively healthy from here on in. The team is 48-32 in the 80 games in which Rolen has played this year and 3-10 when he's been absent. Their backup third baseman is Miguel Cairo, and while they do have Juan Francisco on the farm, the 23-year-old's shaky defense and all-or-nothing approach at the plate would likely make him a similarly huge downgrade.
That's why a legitimate backup third baseman should be near the top of GM Walt Jocketty's shopping list with the trade deadline approaching. Jhonny Peralta would likely come cheap, as the Indians appear to have no interest in retaining him for 2011. The Reds haven't been mentioned as one of the teams targeting Ty Wigginton, but maybe he'd be an option if the Orioles lowered their asking price. I don't think either Mike Lowell or Pedro Feliz is worth pursuing, but a more versatile player like Craig Counsell or Mike Fontenot could be.

I highly doubt the brewers getting rid of counsell to the reds.
- CYGNUS X-1 - Jul 19, 2010 at 7:39 PM
or dusty could free paul janish from batboy duty and let him play.sure he is known more for his defense but has shown he can hit if given the chance which under dusty is not often.can anybody tell my why he is on the roster if dusty refuses to play him?his best psotiton is s.s. but dusty will not give cabrera more than 1 day off a month even though he is not hitting and has no range on defense and is playing with a sprained ankel.

Wharfside Cafe: local fresh seafood - valuable quality meals
Wharfside Cafe is 'the' seafood restaurant in the port of Eden. The Wharfside has the reputation for being the nicest place to have breakfast or lunch & has a great mediterranean seaside ambience (hence its name). The Wharfside not only offer seafood but a wide range of other meals. They're also licensed & offer a range of beers & wines by glass or by bottle. The pricing is good & reflects value in the meal. They have specials for those on tighter budgets & also have a more upmarket specials menu too. Wharfside also has the reputation for serving the best coffee in town & have many testimonials from Australian & also foreign visitors in their visitor's book commenting on how superb the food is and how excellent the coffee is. Wharfside has inside & outside seating (large sun filled courtyard) with many plants & flowers outside creating a parisian atmosphere. Highly recommended.
The Wharfside's website is: www.wharfsidecafe.com.au - menus are available online
Favorite Dish: In my opinion & many others who've commented in the visitor's book, the mussels are the best ever experienced. Grilled fish with creamy garlic prawns is also highly recommended. Not to mention a Caffe Latte or Flat White.

Harbourside Cafe: Coffee & Cake with a harbour view
We stopped here to have coffee and cake during a visit to Snug Cove and the port of Eden. The cafe offers indoor and outdoor tables with views of the harbour. The service was good the coffee & cake up to scratch so we came back for a light lunch and were not disappointed.
The room is undergoing renovation and while it already has a nautical ambience, it may be more so in the future.

Eden Oyster Bar: Best coffee in Eden (and nice food too!)
The Eden Oyster Bar is located at Eden wharf in Snug Cove. Although located opposite the car park, it's interesting watching the comings and goings of a working port and the fishing boats form a picturesque when sitting outside.
The decor is "fishermen's tavern" with nets, buoys, shells etc around the ceiling line. Main cafe area is outdoors, but with clear plastic walls that can be rolled down to keep out bad weather. The overall effect is casual and relaxing and the friendly owners do most of the cooking and serving themselves.
Unfortunately it wasn't open week nights during our stay (weekends only, except in summer) so we didn't end up having dinner there. However, we had some very nice breakfasts and lunches. And for coffee lovers it's by far the best place in town to get a good strong espresso or cafe latte.
Favorite Dish: Beautiful, fresh oysters were our favourites but all of the seafood was terrific. And the coffee was fresh, aromatic and made to our individual tastes (strong for me, weaker for my partner).
- Road Trip
- Beaches
- Whale Watching
I wouldn't normally recommend a McDonalds as a special tip, but this one is different.
What sets it apart is it's location. It's a glassed in, cafe style Maccas on the 2nd floor of a building directly overlooking the sapphire blue waters of Merimbula harbour. I really don't think any other 'restaurant' in town could compete with this view. It's fantastic.
Favorite Dish: Well, we all know what's on the Menu!
My recommendation is the 40c soft serve ice creams. Always nice!

nvidia-settings crashes X
Since i started using a more recent x-server (X.Org X Server 220.127.116.11, built 2 days ago) starting nvidia-settings immediately crashes X.
'nvidia-settings -q all' runs fine.
I know that i can't expect everything to work with a not released and maybe not stable x-server. Just want you to be aware of this problem, the driver itself runs fine.
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
I had the same problem. However, I found out that you can try to remove the
it will run again. Remember to back up that file.
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
It will crash once that file is generated again. The following log is from the Xorg.0.log.

Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
btw. thanks :)
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
ok i guess that the configuration file is not the problem. When i try to actually use nvidia-settings (swtich screens, etc.) it crashes X.
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
I have some experience in X coding, I suppose it would be possible to find where X is crashing (if the driver was failing, I think the system would hang), and if possible, use the old input ABI version commands to send to the driver. It's getting a backtrace which is difficult with X, because you can't access memory on the graphics hardware.
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
Here is the backtrace
(gdb) bt full
#0 0x0809721f in TryClientEvents (client=0x83feb90, dev=0xbfc5ea1c,
pEvents=0x1, count=0, mask=0, filter=0, grab=0x0) at events.c:1983
i = <value optimized out>
type = <value optimized out>
#1 0xb6a371c2 in ?? ()
from /opt/xserver-xir-install/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nvidia_drv.so
I'll have a look at TryClientEvents from this version of X and the previous version (server 1.4.0)
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
Here is TryClientEvents from Server 1.4

Mask filter, GrabPtr grab)
Server 1.5.99999
TryClientEvents (ClientPtr client, DeviceIntPtr dev, xEvent *pEvents,
int count, Mask mask, Mask filter, GrabPtr grab)
The problem is that there are a) Too few arguments for the function and b) DeviceIntPtr and xEvent aren't compatible with each other =)
NVIDIA's fix:
Use XQueryInputVersion (XI2_Major, XI2_Minor); to find out which function to call:
My fix:
I guess I could remove DeviceIntPtr from TryClientEvents and use the xEvent itself through a patch, not so sure how well that would work.
AaronP, any ideas?
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
Any update on when the NVIDIA driver will work with ABI v5.0?
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
Well, ABI 5.0 doesn't exist yet and it's up to the whims of the next X.Org release manager to decide when it will. That said, I plan to keep up-to-date experimental (i.e. requiring "-ignoreABI") support for the latest git master ABI in future driver releases, though I can't promise that I'll be able to keep up if sweeping changes get checked into git.
Re: nvidia-settings crashes X
The last time I tried the git version the driver refuses to start because of some ABI change. But maybe this was something else.

Balearic Islands Travel Tips
Balearic Islands Vacation Rentals are Great Properties in a Lovely Year-Round Location
Spain's Balearic Islands are a group of four islands--Formentera, Ibiza, Mallorca (also referred to as Majorca), and Menorca. Situated off the east coast of mainland Spain, it is blessed with a typically Mediterranean climate. This provides summers that are pleasant with comfortable temperatures and mild dry winters with occasional showers.
There are international airports on both Mallorca and Ibiza, and ferry services from both the smaller islands of Menorca and Formentera. Once at your Balearic Islands accommodation, visitors may choose to hire a car but by far the most popular way to traverse some of the islands is by bike.
Your Balearic Islands Accommodation Offers Stunning Scenery and Great Nightlife
Balearic Islands vacation rentals on Mallorca reside on the largest of the Balearics, with over 200 beaches scattered around island's 188 miles of coastline. To explore this 60-mile-wide island, there is an excellent train service and extensive bus services; however, the most popular choice for visitors is to hire a car. The two main beaches are the wide sandy bays of Magaluf and Palma Nova. Both are lively areas, great for young people. Further north is the huge bay area of Alcudia which is quieter and family-focused. For secluded beaches, visitors should head to Cala d'Or or Cala Millor. Many beaches are ideal for snorkeling and scuba diving, allowing you to explore the marine life, underwater caves and shipwrecks. Visitors looking to combine the beach and horseback riding should go to Playa de Palma. There are also several world-class golf courses on the island. Day trips around the island make a great alternative to the beach and there are many charming towns and villages along the coast and into the stunning Sierra de Tramuntana Mountains.
The town of San Antonio on Ibiza is renowned as a party area with great nightlife and long white beaches. There is much more to this beautiful island than its party reputation. There are many beautiful secluded villages and hidden beaches to explore. Here, visitors can waterski, hire Jet Skis, learn to windsurf and try parasailing. Younger visitors will enjoy the banana boats and pedalos. It is also a great island for sailing and diving. Dive sites include underwater cliffs, caves and arches. There are also a variety of great golf courses that feature up to 18 holes.
One Vacation but Four Islands to Explore
While staying at Balearic Islands holiday villas, visitors should take an excursion to the island of Menorca. This is a smaller and less developed island of stunning natural beauty; it retains much of its Spanish atmosphere. On this island, visitors will find countless historic sites from prehistoric settlements and burial grounds to stunning medieval architecture. There are also some wonderful museums to enjoy.
The smallest island at just 12 miles long is that of Formentera. It is known as the "last paradise of the Mediterranean" because of its unspoiled and undeveloped landscape. A ferry trip to Formentera is a must when visiting your Balearic Islands accommodation. The beaches feature perfectly white sand and warm blue seas where visitors can easily find a secluded spot to relax and swim. It is also a popular diving area where the waters to the north are preserved as the Ses Salinas Nature Reserve. For those seeking activities, the island is excellent for lake-based windsurfing and parasailing.
Balearic Islands Holiday Villas are Idyllic Properties
Balearic Islands holiday villas are idyllic properties based on several of these beautiful islands. Each is individually owned and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay.

NEW ORLEANS - JANUARY 24: Adrian Peterson #28 of the Minnesota Vikings looks on during warms up against the New Orleans Saints during the NFC Championship Game at the Louisana Superdome on January 24, 2010 in New Orleans, Louisiana. (Photo by Jed Jacobsohn/Getty Images)
The physical gifts that allowed Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson to return better than ever from major knee surgery apparently run in the family. Peterson, in Hawaii for his fifth Pro Bowl, told NFL.com that comparisons can't be made between his return from torn anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee and the recovery ahead for dynamic Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who tore the ACL and lateral collateral ligament in his knee during a playoff game earlier this month. Peterson, who returned to game action just over eight months later and rushed for the second-highest single-season total in NFL history with 2,097 yards, said he had a built-in advantage. "This is also a matter of genetics," Peterson told NFL.com's Jeff Darlington this week. "Look at my dad. And my mom's side, my aunts and uncles, they're all ripped. At 50 years old, they've got six packs and eight packs. "My body just heals differently. I know it has a l...

Temecula festival hits the right notes
While there were obviously some hard-core fans scattered among the crowd at The Promenade, quite a few folks undoubtedly came out to hear an up-and-coming singer named Cybill Shepherd, who also is reputed to be pretty good actress. She did a nice version of Duke Ellington's "Sophisticated Lady," and showed she could live up to her background as a Memphis belle when she bellowed on the blues.
A consecration of sorts occurred with Shepherd's presentation of a national recognition to legendary pianist, bandleader and composer Horace Silver, who was too hobbled to play, but expressed gratitude for the honor. Showing appreciation for someone with the credentials of Silver was demonstrative of Laskin's commitment to jazz as a vital artistic expression rather than its diluted, commercial adaptations.
The craziest thing about this festival was that it was free of admission, aside from a benefit concert by Les Brown and His Band of Renown on Saturday night and a wine-tasting Sunday.
To hear top-flight musicians without having to meet steeply-priced cover charges and concert tickets was quite a treat. The success of the inaugural event, with contributions from the likes of Cole and the Caine quartet, certainly bodes well for the future.
The proceeds from the admission events and donations are going toward an effort to create a cultural arts center in the region.
It might not be another Harold's, but it could give the area recognition as a place where music, and jazz in particular, is thriving.
Michael J. Williams is a Californian staff writer.

Ionization of Atomic Hydrogen in Strong Infrared Laser Fields

MetadataShow full item record
We have used the matrix iteration method of Nurhuda and Faisal (Phys. Rev. A 60 (1999) 3125) to treat ionization of atomic hydrogen by a strong laser pulse. After testing our predictions against a variety of previous calculations, we present ejected-electron spectra as well as angular distributions for few-cycle infrared laser pulses with peak intensities of up to 1015W/cm2. It is shown that the convergence of the results with the number of partial waves is a serious issue, which can be managed in a satisfactory way by using the velocity form of the electric dipole operator in connection with an efficient time-propagation scheme.

I agree we should talk about the revival of film. However think upon this; if the current trend of incorporating more video facilities into still digi cameras continues, will it reach the point where digital cameras become primarily video? (which appeals to the consumer more anyway). If this happens, then still digital cameras could cease to exist. Then will we see a gap in the market filled by the re-introduction of high quality film cameras? It's an interesting thought.
What's "interesting" is that you've got it assbackwards. DSLRs capable of 1080p video at high variable frame rates with few focus glitches are putting the hurt on consumer grade camcorder sales.

Great experience when you have to catch the early train to Prince Rupert. It is the cheapest motel in town, right upstairs the local disco club. The floors are very thin, and your bed is shaking, with the beat of the music. When I was staying there the music suddenly stopped. The next morning 6 'o clock the owner told me that the power was off at 2!

Hello Friends,
I hope I have an easy one for you. I just decommissioned a 2003 Server that was functioning as a Print Server, meaning we were sharing printers off of it. Before decommissioning it, we migrated all the printers on to a 2008 Server and everything is working great.
Now that the 2003 Server is offline and off to the scrap heap in the sky, the Printers still show up if you search for printers via the list. Is there a way I can make it so that these printers do not show up any more?
Thank you kindly!

"Do not be in a hurry; depend upon it, the right Man will come at last; you will in the course of the next two or three years, meet with somebody more generally unexceptional than anyone you have yet known, who will love you as warmly as ever He did, and who will so completely attach you, that you will feel you never really loved before."

are you kidding me? if perry had done this in lake okoboji he would have been the SOBER one...
i have to agree with Monte...IC PD sucks...if thats the worst thing that your senior college students are doing, be happy...
"when you are the hammer, everything looks like a nail"
Don't be surprised if this costs Perry some mat time next season.
Do you frequent Okoboji, Goferphan? My parents used to have a place on Spirit Lake. It was pretty cool. Not so rowdy as the neighboring Okoboji Lakes, and good for fishing.
i went twice in highschool and once during college...lots of beer...lots of bikini's...lots of fights...
No, but yelling at the cops at a certain Virginia college when they're breaking someone's arm that just had shoulder sugery will get you fined out the wazooo and a 'public swearing' charge.
Stolen cars and vandalized property = cops do nothing.
Tiki party = federal raid.
So the guy likes to bring it, who cares. It's the offseason and he's 21. Big deal.
[QUOTE=goferphan;2950]are you kidding me? if perry had done this in lake okoboji he would have been the SOBER one...
You are correct sir! I think we average about 5-10 public urination charges a night down here at "the lakes" during the summer....and that's not taking into consideration the other drunken activities take place. I've been here a little over 4 years and still can't get over how this place can change so dramatically when summer hits. But I digress......
Every team will have its run-ins involving some questionable choices...look at what all took place last summer with MN (Lloyd, Matousek, our crappy 197 lber whose name escapes me). It just seems that Iowa has the spotlight directed on them in terms of alcohol usage. I don't think it is anything more than youthful indiscretions and coincidence. Hell, between wrestling and living in a frat it was pure dumb luck (and a wicked drinking tolerance handed down from my German ancestors)that I never found myself in a similar situation to Perry's. .20 is pretty rocked though!!
Unfortunately this story is starting to make the rounds on some popular sports blogs.
Are all the arrests published online in other places? It might be about the same number of arrests as teams and just seem worse because it's so easy to access the information.

I had expected to be really bored when I first signed up for this class because it is a requirement for all Anthropology majors and the subject matter doesn't sound particularly exciting. However, I was quite pleasantly surprised. Although some of the readings were kind of boring and a lot of the readings for the first several weeks are not even from anthropologists, Cohen did such a good job of lecturing that he made the class much more interesting. He was really enthusiastic and he is extremely intelligent and his lectures were insightful and informative. The only complaint I have was that the GSI that you get stuck with can make your experience either much better or really terrible. Some GSIs are easier than others and are much better at explaining the material. So, if you get a really bad GSI your class experience might be that much worse. I would recommend taking the class with Cohen if you are able. He is a GREAT professor.

YIELD: Makes 8 servings (as part of a Chinese meal)
ACTIVE TIME: 30 min
TOTAL TIME: 1 1/2 hr
Make chicken:
Rinse chicken inside and out, then bend legs to tuck feet (if still attached) inside cavity. Stuff cavity with scallions, ham, and ginger.
Bring water with salt to a boil in a deep 7- to 8-quart stockpot or pasta pot. Add chicken, breast side down (chicken may not be completely covered with liquid), then reduce heat and simmer, covered, 20 minutes.
Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 30 minutes. Turn chicken over and let stand, covered, 15 minutes more (chicken will be cooked through).
While chicken stands, fill a large bowl three-fourths full with ice and cold water. Carefully remove chicken from pot with a large slotted spoon and plunge into ice water to stop cooking. Let stand, gently turning over once (be careful not to tear skin), until cool, about 10 minutes total. Carefully transfer to a cutting board and discard scallions, ham, and ginger from cavity. Pat dry. Rub skin with sesame oil.
Make dipping sauce:
Stir together scallions and soy sauce in a small heatproof bowl.
Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water vaporizes instantly. Pour oil around side of wok, then tilt wok to swirl oil, coating sides. When oil just begins to smoke, carefully add ginger (oil will spatter) and stir-fry 30 seconds. Immediately remove from heat and pour over scallion mixture, stirring to combine (scallions will wilt).
To cut and serve chicken on a platter (Chinese restaurantstyle), cut off the head and neck (if attached) with a cleaver and put at one end of a large platter. (These parts, along with the back and feet, aren't always eaten.) Cut off the feet. Cut off the drumsticks and thighs, then cut crosswise through the boneinto 1-inch pieces. Place the feet and leg meat at the other end of the platter. Cut off the wings, separating them at the joints, and put on the sides of the platter. Cut through the ribs, separating breast from back, then cut the backbone crosswise into 3 pieces and put them in the center of the platter. (Striking the cleaver with a rubber mallet makes the cuts clean.) Cut the breast crosswise through the bone into 1-inch pieces and arrange on the back. Alternatively, cut chicken according to procedure and mound pieces in a bowl.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons dipping sauce over chicken and sprinkle with cilantro leaves. Serve warm or at room temperature, with remaining dipping sauce on the side.
Cooks' notes: · Chicken can be cooked and rubbed with sesame oil (but not cut) 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. · Chicken can be cut up and arranged on platter 4 hours ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature 1 hour before serving. Drizzle with dipping sauce just before serving. · Dipping sauce can be made 4 hours ahead and kept, covered, at room temperature.

My tour of Rosemount Manor (with kids)
In early March of this year, I toured the Rosemount Museum in Pueblo, Colorado – about 45 minutes from where I currently live.
Rosemount is a historic mansion that has been exceedingly well preserved as an old house museum.
I visited with Lupe and my two kids and we were treated to a personal tour from a very knowledgeable (and serious) tour guide.
Built in 1893, the 24,000 square foot mansion took over two years to construct. It was designed by famed New York architect Henry Hudson Holly.
This 37-room mansion was home to the John A. and Margaret Thatcher family and named for Mrs. Thatcher's favorite flower. It remained a family residence for 75 years.
from: www.rosemount.org
The Rosemount is yet another one of those impressive Gilded Age monuments to personal wealth. But it stands apart as an old house museum because nearly ALL of the furnishings (decorative arts, custom paneling, wallpaper, window treatments, accessories and appliances) are original to the house.
The Richardsonian Romanesque style mansion was built at a cost of $60,750. The home and carriage house were constructed of pink volcanic stone quarried near Castle Rock, Colorado. Pink was the lady of the house's "signature color".
Rosemount features beautiful oak, cherry, maple and mahogany woodwork. The home's golden oak entrance hall exhibits a coffered ceiling and the largest of the home's Tiffany chandeliers. The dramatic oak staircase nearby directs you past an exquisite 9 x 13 foot stained glass window, "Kingdoms of Nature," designed by Charles Booth of New York. The Thatcher family dedicated the windows as a memorial to Lenore and Albert, their two children who did not live to see Rosemount completed.
from: www.rosemount.org/home/
My two children, Noe & Tova, graced Rosemount with their boisterous presence…
(They were threatened within an inch of their lives to be on their BEST behavior.)
Below – a funny picture of me yelling at my kids as my son snaps photos:
(Yes, I'm one of those point-and-yell moms: "You. There. NOW!")
The little monsters were actually fairly well behaved.
But there was one incident….
Our nearly two-hour long tour was punctuated halfway through with "I have to go to the bathroom!" from both kids. So Lupe brought them down to the basement to use the public restroom while I continued on with the tour. The tour guide and I were standing in the servant's staircase chatting away about old houses when I noticed I was standing next to a vintage elevator.
"Does it still work?" I asked.
"Yes, but we don't use it because it is such a rare antique elevator." The guide replied.
"Really? Because I hear something in there…" I trailed off as I heard my kid's giggles coming up the elevator shaft. A moment later the delicate doors lurched open and out popped my husband and kids – much to my horror and the tour guide's astonishment!
Apparently, a volunteer had told them they could use it.
Ahem. Now every time we see an elevator, it's a big laugh and a stern look from mommy.
My children were also impressed with the large antique player grand piano in one of the Rosemount's parlours. The staff had rigged up the piano to a remote control so they could surprise you with a rousing Victorian tune when you least expected it.
Unfortunately, we were strictly prohibited from taking any interior photos. As with most old house museums, the tapestries, artwork and fabrics are so old and fragile that they need to be protected from flash photography.
I did find a couple of interior images on the Internet:
This gives you a sense of how opulent the décor is.
Below is a photo of the exquisite stained glass window in the grand staircase:
Rosemount is decorated each year for Christmas – you can imagine how spectacular it is. The tour guide told us that it takes a solid month to put up all the elaborate decorations.
Keep in mind that almost everything you see in these images is original to the house – the rug, the dishes, the paintings, the light fixtures.
Although I could only find one small photo of the kitchen, I just had to mention how exceptionally preserved this room is at Rosemount…
About 95% of the kitchen is original to when the home was built in the 1890's. We're talking way back when only servants went in there – original cookstove, tiles, wash tub sink, ice boxes, storage bins, and primitive intercom system that still works!
Below is the carriage house on the northeast part of the estate. It was converted to a restaurant in recent years called "The Carriage House" but unfortunately, was shut down when we were there.
One more funny story to share with you:
Before the tour guide led us up to the final leg of the tour on the third floor of the house, she turned around and said to me: "I just have to warn you before we go up – there is a mummified body upstairs."
She explained that there was an ancient Egyptian mummy on display as part of the home's Victorian curio collection.
Sure enough, there "it" was in a glass case in the center of one of the third floor rooms. My kids literally ran out of the room screaming. I do wish I was allowed to take pictures – but then again, I don't want to ruin your dinner.
I asked where the mummy came from and the guide explained that a friend of the home's original owner had been on vacation in Egypt back when tomb-raiding was a popular Victorian pastime. He bought this mummified body for around $5 from a port-side vender, apparently.
You never know what you're going to come across in an old house.
The Rosemount is a near perfect example of a late 19th century Victorian stone mansion. If you are ever in Pueblo, Colorado, please take the time to stop off and see it – they even allow "well-behaved" kids!
For more details and a complete history of the home, see the official Rosemount website.

Great post
The kids are so adorable and leave it to you and the family to exit out the elevator just as the guide tells you that it is not really in use. That was great, along with getting to see yet another great historic manor and learning about its history. I am glad having mummified bodies in residence is currently not in fashion.
love the personal interest part about the potty thing! We traveled for 3 years in an RV when our children were your children's size! We lived with, "I have to go potty!" I am so glad we took all the photos and spent that time in our life. You can never get that time back again.
The rooms are beautiful…but a mummy? well, to each their own, right?
Sarah, your kids are adorable and I think it is wonderful that you bring them to see such historic places.
This mansion is beautiful – some people had so much money back then LOL! I guess some people do today as well. But they had better taste back then!
You didn't mention it, but I'm thinking with a mummy from Egypt there in the house, it has GOT to be haunted !
I love how brightly lighted the dining room is !

Don't know how this got an 8.2 on priceline. Room was musty with old carpet and old furniture. Cobwebs greeted us at doorway. Baths and sinks are new and clean and that's a help. Air conditioner was loud and leaky actually making carpet damp. Breakfast area was small with very little to offer. Can't recommend even at a low price. It is too depressing.

text: Robert Griffin III and the Washington Redskins' offense have struggled mightily this season to a 3-8 record. In Monday's 27-6 loss to the 49ers, the Redskins failed to score a touchdown. It was the first time in Griffin's career -- college or pro -- that he failed to lead his offense to a TD.
