Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally Roars into Baker City
Scott Ungerecht
Jun 20, 2011 in
Baker City
- The 12th annual Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally celebrated in style during the weekend of June 10-12, 2011 in Baker City, Oregon.
Motorcycle owners from all over the country descended upon Baker City to enjoy 3 full days of riding different routes in Eastern Oregon, showing off their bikes, and meeting new friends & old acquaintances.
On the morning of Saturday, June 11th, I arrived on Main Street to take some B&W pictures of the motorcycles and the riders who owned them.
The weather was warm with partly cloudy skies. There were over one hundred motorcycles parked along both sides of Main Street. They were lined up from the Sears store to the Baker Tower building (a total of four blocks). The distinctive sounds of revving motorcycle engines and loud, back-firing mufflers could be heard everywhere.
Unfortunately, there weren't very many people walking along Main Street. In fact, the number of parked motorcycles outnumbered the pedestrians by a margin of 10-to-1. There were several merchandise booths set-up on side streets that were blocked off, and motor vehicle traffic flowed normally through the downtown area.
Just about every kind of motorcycle you could imagine could be seen, like Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, Harley Davidson, Ducanti, and so forth. Everything from street racing bikes to hogs and choppers were clearly represented. The vast majority of the motorcycles were all black. However, many of them were painted in different colors.
A patrol car from the Oregon State Police was parked behind the merchandise booths on one of the side streets. An unidentified officer with the Oregon State Police was seen talking casually with a small group of men dressed in black leather jackets and pants. No Baker City police officers, or their patrol cars, were seen on Main Street.
Main Street is considered an official part of Highway I-84, which runs north & south past Baker City. As a result, the Oregon State Police appeared to have official law enforcement authority for the day.
After taking several pictures of the motorcycles and their riders, I proceeded to the Best Western Sunridge Inn hotel, which was located about 2 miles from Main Street near Highway I-84. The Sunridge Inn was the official headquarters for the Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally.
When I arrived at the parking lot of the Sunridge Inn, I noticed dozens of motorcycles parked everywhere. There were also several large white tents and lots of merchandise booths set up all around the perimeter of the parking lot. Just like Main Street, the parking lot was not full of people.
In fact, the parking lot was empty enough that I could clearly see a young woman with dyed blonde hair wearing a white Miss Oregon banner over her clothing. She was walking around and waving to people. I did not know if the woman was Miss Oregon USA or Miss Oregon Teen USA.
Miss Oregon was wearing a pink dress, sunglasses, sandals, and a crown on top of her head. She was smiling and appeared to enjoy the attention she was receiving from several children who wanted to meet her. She also didn't mind all the adult men, some with wives or girlfriends, who were staring at her from a distance.
For a brief moment, I thought about introducing myself to Miss Oregon and taking some picture of her. But, I changed my mind after I realized that I wasn't there to write a story about a national state celebrity. I was there to focus on the motorcycle rally. So, I quickly turned my attention back to the motorcycles and the booths.
After taking a dozen pictures, I walked home and waited for the Hells Canyon Motorcycle show to start at 6 pm. Unfortunately, it started to rain at 5 pm and I was unable to watch the show or take any pictures. I was really disappointed, but at least I was able to see a part of the rally, and catch a glimpse of Miss Oregon, too (it's not everyday you get to see a celebrity).
On the morning of Sunday, June 12, at approximately 10 am, there was a religious service held at Geiser-Pullman Park in downtown Baker City. There was a large crowd of people who attended the service, including a dozen motorcycle riders. By 12 pm, the service had ended.
The Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally officially concluded after the religious service and is now a part of Baker City's history. From what I could tell, all the motorcycle riders had a good time and I'm sure Baker City can't wait to see them again next year.

At 90, he went on weight watchers and at 91 he did ballroom dancing. The age of 92 was all about taking a leap of faith.
His family was there to watch and give support. Photojournalist Nate Kruse went along for the ride.

Natural geothermal heat under Antarctic ice: 'Surprisingly HIGH'
Re: Heat balance
"Lead author Andrew Fisher, professor of Earth and planetary sciences at UC Santa Cruz, emphasized that the geothermal heating reported in this study does not explain the alarming loss of ice from West Antarctica that has been documented by other researchers. The ice sheet developed and evolved with the geothermal heat flux coming up from below--it's part of the system. But this could help explain why the ice sheet is so unstable. When you add the effects of global warming, things can start to change quickly," he said."

THIS TIME we really are ALL DOOMED, famous doomsayer prof says
Re: Matt Ridley
Is this the same Matt Ridley who was chairman of Northern Rock when it collapsed?
If so it's kind of strange for him to be the one spearheading criticisms of people who are warning of disasters.
Re: Obligatory xkcd
It's relevant because it graphically displays human overpopulation of earth, which isn't just about members of our own species but the even greater numbers of livestock species we artificially breed. All of which have displaced other species in the wild and require great amounts of crop land and water to feed.
Of course we aren't supposed to examine this subject critically and ask whether it is sustainable, because Erlich was wrong in the 70s or something.
Re: Oh for god's sake...
"he forgot to apply Moore Law to food production"
I know you are not claiming it literally, but there was no equivalent for Moore's law for food production. As far as I can tell, at the time there was no guarantee that crop yields could be massively increased more than they already had been.
"2) nuclear winter. I appear to have missed the bit where we had a nuclear war "
Exactly. It seems they are arguing Erlich should not have raised warnings about nuclear winter because he should have assumed nuclear war would not occur. As if anyone could have known that at the time.
The warnings themselves are not being judged on the knowledge available when they were made, but in hindsight using the knowledge of today. So for example they argue Erlich should not have made warnings of global starvation because he should have assumed food production would ramp up, as if he should have been psychic. None of them offer reasons for why it was obvious he was wrong at the time.
It's a fine way to dangerously shut down discussion of threats though. I notice that any warning that does not come to pass is now used as an excuse to dismiss further warnings out of hand.
Re: doom
The problem I see is that to explain why Ehrlich's predictions in the 70s of mass starvation were wrong every Captain Hindsight points to the green revolution. Which is to say if the green revolution hadn't occurred, Ehrlich's predictions would likely have been correct. So I ask who was able at the time to predict the green revolution was sure to happen?
It seems the counter for such dire warnings then and now remains nothing but optimistic guff, what I call the theory of "A Miracle Will Occur". It is a really more a dismissal of the problem than any reassurance of a solution, the idea that all looming problems can be ignored because God or Lady Luck will stop them becoming catastrophes.
There are a number of issues charging up due to rising human population and consumption, including peak oil, peak soil, aquifer depletion, climate change and species extinctions. Where are the *guarantees* or even half-baked guarantees based on *logic* that these issues are not imminent problems?
An example of something that has already gone wrong are various fish stock collapses due to overfishing, where very notably The Miracle Did Not Occur and instead it was a Nasty Surprise.
But of course we can safely ignore all future warnings because we got lucky once before.
Taylor Swift boycotts Apple Music over no-pay-for-plays shocker
Re: @NomNomNom
I was being sarcastic not serious
I just download music and movies for free. Don't give a shit about artists. They should get proper jobs that produce real things that have real value, ie that cannot be copied for free. Just a fact of life.
A pause in global warming? Pah, FOOLS. There was NO PAUSE
Re: Obviously.
So it's obvious that if the data shows continuing global warming it must be false? How convenient a filter to prevent you ever having to accept a world that was warming.
Also the idea that these researchers benefit in grants from this is wrong. These researchers would have grants to maintain the temperature records whatever the result was.
Re: Science
that's a very convenient conspiracy theory that creationists also appeal to in order to explain why they can't get their ideas published in leading journals.
In reality this is a sign that the ideas lack credibility, not a sign that there is something wrong with peer review.
Re: Exactly!
it says you believe myths

Political think-tanks opposed to action on climate change are very much against any questioning that there has been a pause in global warming. So it was entirely predictable that there would be "write ups" to satisfy what you wanted to believe.
"No wonder we cannot actually get to the bottom and agree on what is really happening to our planet."
There are people who don't want you to know what is going on
Re: This is why we can't have nice things!
Why do you assume the numbers were adjusted incorrectly? Right wing think tanks were publishing rebuttals to the paper before it was even published. Red flag: political think tanks reviewing scientific papers that they clearly have ideological objections to. Sure there's more of a reason to question the validity of that than the peer reviewed paper. I bet you that none of these criticisms will ever be submitted to peer review.
Re: 2 alarm bells from Ross McKitrick
But why assume Ross's analysis is accurate?
Re: This again?
"Observations showed warming wasn't increasing despite record amounts of CO2"
That's exactly what the commenter you replied to was talking about. Why do you accept the observations when they show a pause but complain about them when they don't?
The question that is being raised now is whether there was a pause at all. Many researchers are not doubtful of that. There is no statistically significant difference between the previous warming trend and the most recent rate of warming, therefore on what basis does anyone claim global warming has slowed down?
The 'echo chamber' effect misleading people on climate change
Re: Political Bullshit
I've seen the content of their conferences and their textbooks. There is a clear consensus among people of expertise that man is driving the planet warmer. I don't think calling them liars or idiots is a particularly convincing argument, being the same argument the creationists and anti-vaxxers resort to to explain away the consensus in those particular fields.
And the expertise part cannot be emphasised enough - climate skeptics tend to overestimate their own knowledge on the subject. 9/10 when I bump into a person skeptical of manmade global warming I find them throwing out simplistic arguments that don't hold up, and having reached a conclusion on the matter via those arguments.

"Almost unheard of is the concept of simply improving technology to the point at which we are using low-carbon technologies and emitting less fossil carbon than is locked up by natural processes"
Really? You've never heard of the concept of replacing fossil fuels with cleaner energy sources?
Re: Consensus is not science
There is a consensus - the best human minds on the subject of climate are unanimous that man is driving up the temperature of the earth and will continue doing so. They are best placed to analyse the evidence and have been convinced by that evidence. This is a strong indicator that the idea has merit.
Re: Re:how scientific discourse should be
Given Dawkin's has been mentioned I would think the obvious parallel with climate science would be the theory of evolution. Dawkin's himself isn't particularly kind to some of the creationist scientists is he?
"H. pylori" was a small matter contained within a small field of science. Evolution and climate change are fully blown issues which threaten the ideologies of vast segments of the public. There really is no comparison.
Re: Political Bullshit
"Since 1998 the IPCC climate models have all predicted various rates of warming, the average being 1 degree warmer by 2015"
"The actual warming over this time is zero degrees"
also wrong
"Clearly the correlation of global warming with CO2 concentration has been disproved"
bad logic
"I am impressed with the logical thinking of the general public who have grasped this fact far better than the Climate Science community."
It really makes no sense. Why would a field of experts around the world be convinced that CO2 emissions are driving up global temperature if it's so obviously wrong?
I am afraid you are in a position of error and you can't see that you are.
The majority of climate researchers accept that man is warming the world through greenhouse gas emissions. The evidence is quite convincing.

'Giving geo-engineering to this US govt is like giving a CHILD a LOADED GUN'
Re: Tackling the symptoms, not the cause
I think that's the gist of what the scientist was saying. Geo-engineering projects need to be sustained in the longterm. Which means it all goes to shit if some crazy future administration decides it doesn't believe in the science anymore and cancels the project.
"Well, of course deploying this sort of tech would be a stupendously bad idea. It's a complete unknown; all we have are models that keep being proven inaccurate at best, and biased for political reasons at worst."
It's funny how "unknowns" and "inaccurate models" are used as a justification to CONTINUE uncontrolled CO2 emissions.
But as soon as it comes to any other subject (geo-engineering or medicine for example) "unknowns" and "inaccurate models" are cited as a reason to AVOID the action in question.
Wonder why there is such a wildly different approach. One that assumes it is fine until proven dangerous, the other that it is a crazy idea until proven safe.
It is quite funny to read various climate skeptic blogs discussing this news about geo-engineering in which climate skeptic commentards drop their guard and shriek hysterically about the dangers of modifying the climate, citing the "law of unintended consequences", wailing "not on my planet!" and bemoaning the risk of messing around with the climate.
Somehow in complete contradiction to their casual don't-give-a-shit attitude towards ongoing CO2 emissions which are not only a form of geo-engineering but an uncontrolled one. Yet in that case the "law of unintended consequences" doesn't get a mention and anyone who dares suggest such a thing would be labelled as "alarmist".
If any evidence were needed that their "nothing to see here" attitude towards CO2 is all about the $$$
Ex-squeeze me? Baking soda? Boffins claim it safely sucks CO2 out of the air
In the vacuum of space the only insulator is that which can block radiation from escaping, ie greenhouse gases like CO2. Mars has a very thin atmosphere so even though CO2 dominates, it has less CO2 than Earth. The heat on venus cannot be explained other than through the greenhouse effect
Re: Why bother?
yet the world continues to heat up.
"A much bigger impact is the upwards convection of warm air at the equators taking heat away and allowing it to cool in the upper atmosphere"
That would cool, not warm the surface. The greenhouse effect which CO2 contributes to is why the Earth isn't covered in ice.
venus absorbs less sunlight than Earth
Re: Given...
actually the answer is that the OCO-2 satellite doesn't show absorption of CO2 and therefore the "thinkers" who imagine it shows the CO2 all comes from the rainforest aren't seeing a greater amount of CO2 being sunk into the biosphere and oceans elsewhere. The human emission being the breaking point that is causing CO2 levels to rise. Whack.

Re: This summer was globally the warmest on record
"And this article focusing on the UK and the very wrong statement implying something which is demonstrably untrue"
Bob Ward is absolutely correct in his assessment. It's this article that is wrong. Perhaps you forget the heatwave at the end of July? Well this article averaged it out with the cool August to make in vanish.
The fact is the year to date in the UK is the warmest on record. Above average temperatures have persisted for the majority of the year. The climate normal in the UK is rising as the globe warms.
Central England Temperature requires the rest of the year to average just +0.6C above average to break a new record. All but one month this year has been above +1C and November is already so far +1.4C above average.
The absurd assertion in the article that we could just as easily see the coldest year on record requires November and December to be 25 degrees C colder than average.
Such straws to cling on just to deny the country, and the world is warming.

SECRET U.S. 'SPACE WARPLANE' set to return from SPY MISSION
Re: I find this report...
I don't know but I found a satellite with a similar orbit and NASA say:
"The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite was launched to monitor rainfall in the tropics. Therefore, it has a relatively low inclination (35 degrees), staying near the equator."
Type: Non-sun-synchronous
Altitude: 350 km, boosted to 402 km on August
22, 2001
Inclination: 35°
"The TRMM orbit is non-sun- synchronous and initially was at an altitude of 350 km, until the satellite was boosted to 402 km on August 22, 2001. The objectives of TRMM center on rainfall and energy, including latent heat of condensation."
So what does this mean for 345 by 363 Kilometers at an inclination of 43.5 degrees?

IBM boffins stuff 16 million-neuron chips into binary 'frog' brain
only problem is such a simulation already ran in real life on a computer the size of the planet earth, and it took millions of years to produce intelligent creatures. There's little hope of producing anything equivalent by evolution on a small computer in a human lifetime.
Re: "Frog" brain... or "any" brain...
The public are fed such BS to believe that AI is capable of far more than it is actually is. I get told that "they" have now made a computer as intelligent as a mouse, but I know that isn't true because AI just isn't there. I know full well what they've really done is create something analogous to the structure of a mouse brain. But how can I argue with newspaper articles? Everyone wants to believe hard AI is just 5 years away and they don't like me sounding like some neo-luddist when I say it's rubbish. People don't realize how frickin stupid AI is still and how ludicrously ahead of reality some of the proposed pie in the sky ideas (eg "google self-driving cars") and the like are. I think gamers perhaps have a better appreciation of how crap AI really is because they get to see the results (or lack of) of attempts to get code to do something truly intelligent - and that's in a controlled environment!

ESPN has launched six new online video games for sports fans, available via ESPN360 — the sports network's broadband service.
The games consist of two collections: "Arena Games," which include basketball, baseball and boxing and "Bar Sports," including air hockey, coin toss and bar curling. The new games are the initial offering from ESPN Online Games, an ESPN New Media initiative.
As part of the ESPN360 All-Access trial period, the games are available to all fans with a high-speed Internet connection until July 19. Thereafter, they'll be available exclusively through ESPN360. However, on a rotating basis, one game will be available to all Internet users via ESPN.com as a showcase game.
According to ESPN vice president Tanya Van Court, video games are "a key aspect" of the total sports experience for fans. The games represent another step on the part of ESPN to deliver that experience.
Produced using Adobe Flash, the online games use a combination of video footage, stop-motion animation and 3-D rendering to deliver a distinctive look and feel. The current games are all single player.

Response to The 14 Most Perfect Examples Of Irony:
Why? Why was this "article" written?? We're you listening to "Jagged Little Pill" while smoking a blunt and think this would be funny? It's not.
Judging by that photo of the two….Katy never was Taylor's friend. Katy looks like she doesn't even want to be near Swifty
Man, I hope that hit a plate and not the seat. Who knows what's been sitting on that seat. Gross.
I absolutely love Bruno Mars and Ed Sheeran. And WTF is Meek Mill?
Who the fuck doesn't know who Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey are?????????? There really should be an option for "don't listen to her" because even people who don't listen to their music know who they are. Come on Buzzfeed
Ummm because the only other female nominated in that category is Beyonce. Bey is obviously not a "very thin" woman. Pretty straight forward diss to Swift.
This has nothing to do with race. Nicki's video is nothing but half naked women shaking their asses to an old song sample. What is award winning about that?

I wouldn't call this "intorvert". This seems more socially anxious, like human contact frightens this person. Being an introvert doesn't mean you're afraid of people or hate interacting with them.

Nothing bizarre about it. You can't control when the baby is going to come. What's bizarre is how amazingly calm the mother was.
Amazing! Props to Mama, great job! Now that's a story to tell your child.
I didn't do too bad…considering I'm from the US. And that last one I was sooooooooo close. I thought it was Snorf, not Snarf.
I'll still eat a mustard sandwich. Yum. The best is a tomato and mayo sandwich though.

Response to 23 Signs You Are (Or Were) A Bank Teller:
I'm a teller and one of my coworkers had someone deposit a $650.00 check with the legal line reading "six hunnit fiddy". I told her I wouldn't have taken it, lol. There is no such number as "six hunnit fiddy". I've also had customers try to deposit or withdraw from their "chickens" or "checkings" account. IT'S A CHECKING ACCOUNT. THERE IS NO "S" ON THE END.

OPINION: I'm sure you've heard of Mega, Kim Dotcom's file-hosting service, and it's very handy, not least because you get 50GB of free storage. But there are plenty of other useful online tools you may not know about.
Ever get a suspicious looking text message with a mysterious web address? If you see a link like this bit.ly/15q47YL (don't worry, that one's safe) it can be hard to decipher. Fortunately, a site called longurl.org lets you enter that address to find out where it leads without you having to visit it and potentially expose your computer or phone to risk. If you want to shorten a link, so that you can put it into an email address easily, bit.ly and tinyurl.com are designed for that.
A few months ago, I found a great site called workflowy.com, which is an organising tool combining outlining and to-do list. It's really simple to use and has short videos that walk you through. Workflowy is a website, but it also has an iOS app, and you can even use it offline. And no matter where you make your changes, they all get updated to the central list. If you alter things, it even sends you an update at the end of the day to tell you what changed. I use it for shared to-do lists - and I think it would be handy for tracking chores if you're flatting.
I'm amazed that more people don't know about the Wayback Machine, at archive.org. It's a project that has been taking snapshots of the internet since it began. Want to know what Trade Me looked like in 2007? It can help. It has helped me recover an entire blog that got accidentally deleted.
Google can handle all kinds of conversions, whether it be currency, weights and measures or language translation. If you want to convert New Zealand dollars to Indonesian rupiah, or find out how many nautical miles is equivalent to 15 furlongs, Google can handle it. Just type in, for example, "5 tsp in grams" and marvel. Google translation is found at translate.google.com.
If you, like me, sometimes print out web pages for later reading, it's annoying to find that you've also printed all the adverts and extras. A site called printwhatyoulike.com lets you select just the bits you want, avoiding all the fluff.
Sometimes, you want a little more depth than a regular search engine can offer. If you want, for example, to know the unemployment rate in Wellington in 2007, then a better spot to try and find it (apart from stats.govt.nz) is wolframalpha.com. Wolfram Alpha is part database aggregator, part computational analyser and part search engine, and it can produce clever results for intricate queries. However, it does take a bit of getting used to if you only use Google or Bing.
Choosing randomly is harder than it looks, but random.org can help you select a random coin toss, number, and more. Can't find a six-sided dice? You can roll it online. It doesn't do rock/paper/scissors, though.
If you discover that you're down to your last egg, three grapes and a bunch of wilted spinach, it's time to head to supercook.com. Rather than a recipe website, Supercook lets you type in ingredients that you have to hand, and then looks for recipes that fit the bill from many online recipe sites.
If you have a bunch of old tech gear lying around. Or maybe old furniture, games... whatever you want to get rid of, it's likely someone could use it. But if you can't sell it on Trade Me, where do you go? Freecycle is one option - it lets you exchange stuff or give your gear to someone who needs it. You can find your local group at freecycle.org.

Hart Not Happy with Last Role, Backstage News on HBK and Taker
by Amish Patel - January 14, 2013
– WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels is considered a lock for tonight's RAW 20th anniversary show. WWE officials really wanted him there because he was the Intercontinental Champion on the very first episode. Michaels is also from Texas so he will get the big local pop.
– Another star from Texas who is expected tonight is The Undertaker. It is confirmed that he will be wrestling at WrestleMania 29 and his most likely opponent is CM Punk. We may see the beginning of that feud tonight on RAW.
– As noted before, Bret Hart was contacted about tonight's RAW anniversary show but told officials he only wanted to come back if they really had something for him to do. A source confirms that Bret was very upset that they brought him into the RAW 1000 show for what ended up being just a small ringside appearance.

text: Home > Diet and nutrition > Nutrition basics Updated 29 July 2015 How to shop for olive oil Olive oil has long been known for its many health benefits. But just how do you select the right olive oil when there are so many choices available? 3 iStock Related Go the Mediterranean route Olive oil makes you feel full Mediterranean diet can ward off heart disease Check Glycaemic index tool » Count Calorie counter » Quiz Ready for weight loss? » Ask DietDoc » The lowdown on low-carbs 10 foods with hidden fat Olive oil has long been known as one of the healthier oils, with some beneficial properties like its healthy (monounsaturated) fat content and abundant supply of polyphenols (powerful antioxidants that may prevent heart diseases, stroke and lower blood pressure). A recent study in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that participants who followed the Mediterranean diet (compared to those who didn't) and consumed just 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive a day (along with having at least 3 or more servings of fish per week, 3 servings of fruit, 2 servings of vegetables per day and replacing red meat with chicken) had a 30% lower risk of having a heart attack, stroke and dying of heart disease after 5 years.But just how do you select the right olive oil when there are so many choices available? Here's some practical advice to help you make that choice:Buy extra virgin olive oil, in a dark bottle or metal can and store in a cool dry place as exposure to light can cause the oil to become rancid and lose its healthful properties"Extra virgin" oils are of higher quality as the olives are processed within 24 hours of picking and also have more antioxidants in them than "virgin" oils."Pure" olive oil, or just olive oil, is heavily processed to remove flavours and aromas and, although still a good source of healthy fats, it is stripped of some of its antioxidant content.Filtered/unfiltered: oils that are unfiltered basically mean that there are tiny particles of olive flesh in them and because of this, they tend to have a reduced shelf life and also have a cloudy appearance if the particles have not settled at the bottom.The colour of the oil is not indicative of quality – but merely variety and ripeness of the olives that were used to make the oil."Light," "lite" and "extra-light" are purely marketing terms used on highly refined oils that refer to mild flavour and/or colour, not reduced energy content."Product of Greece" or "Product of Italy" – when you see this on the bottle, it means that the oil was processed in that country but not necessarily that the olives were grown there. However, there are oils that are made solely from Italian or Californian olives for example – these tend to be quite expensive as well as have a more distinct flavour.Smoke point – avoid heating any oil (not just extra-virgin olive oil) to smoking point, as overheating may create harmful substances and alter the healthful properties of any oil.Abide by the expiration dates as these are good indications of shelf life.Tip: If you don't use olive oil frequently, buy smaller bottles as air exposure can diminish the flavour and antioxidant content. - (SA Heart and Stroke Foundation.

A Columbia man accused of failing to properly check muskrat traps has been given a six-month suspended jail sentence.
Fifty-eight-year-old Kerry L. Hansen pleaded guilty to six counts of failing to properly check traps. In exchange, 68 other counts of failure to properly check traps and two counts of trapping muskrats out of season were dismissed.
Hansen received a 30-day suspended jail term on each of the six charges that stem from incidents in 2011 and 2012. He must pay nearly $3,800 in fines and fees and spend six months on probation.
State law requires trappers to check their traps at least every two days to ensure that trapped animals aren't suffering and that the equipment is working properly.

Organic Black Brandywine Tomato Seeds (80 days)
Sustainably Grown Approx. 25 heirloom seeds
Indeterminate vines with regular leaves.
According to Craig LeHoullier Black Brandywine was "First listed in the SSE in 1999, seed saved from a variety offered in 1998 for the first time by the Tomato Seed Company – apparently a single plant selection in a field of Brandywine being grown out by the California company Seeds by Design. It is surmised that it originated by an accidental cross of Brandywine with a regular leaf "purple/black" tomato such as Cherokee Purple or Black from Tula".

Planting Tips for Heirloom Tomatoes:
Most gardeners want to get the most out of these delicious heirloom tomatoes and therefore give them a head start on the growing season. Start these vegetable seeds indoors in sterile potting mix being sure to keep the temperature above 70 degrees. Some people prefer to use a grow pad but the top of the fridge has been known to be quite effective as well.
Once the first true leaves appear on your tomato seedlings, transplant into 4" pots until you have completely hardened them off in the garden. Hardening is a process of exposing the plants more and more to outside temperature until they are hardy enough to tollerat a complete outdoor move. Generally speaking, by early summer heirloom tomatoes should be transplated into the garden.
Most heirloom varieties are quite productive and will greatly benefit from sturdy supports. It may also be advisable to add blood and bone to the worked soil to help ensure healthy productive heirloom tomatoes.
Seed Care tips for Heirloom Tomato Seeds:
Heirloom seeds are hardy but always take care with your garden seeds to give them the appropriate amount of moisture - not letting the vegetable seeds dry out prematurely or overwatering and possibly having them rot.

Monkey Bar GymRead MoreWhen Jon Hinds was designing Monkey Bar Gym, he drew inspiration from the playground to create a unique type of exercise that focuses on full-body workouts. The fitness regimen at the gym combines six simple skills learned as a child: running, jumping, crawling, climbing, rolling, and reacting. Jon Hinds and the certified trainers at Monkey Bar Gym have combined these principles into a high-intensity routine that was featured on Fox 6 news and in fitness publications such as Men's Fitness magazine. "The workouts are intense, but you won't see any training partners screaming their buddies through forced reps here," says a reporter from Muscle & Fitness who visited the gym. "The challenges come in making the exercises as efficient as possible and constantly working to a higher level of skill and movement." At MBG Milwaukee, sunlight filters in to a fitness studio that resembles an industrial loft, and a set of monkey bars looms in the center of the room. Trainers Jeffrey Winzenried and April Miles helm the classes, walking students through boot-camp, yoga, and strength classes that focus on movements people make every day. Moves vary, but students can often be found doing pushups, pull-ups, resistance-band training, heavy-rope training, and gymnastics-inspired moves on suspended rings. Personal training sets patrons on the quickest path toward fitness goals, and staff at the gym also provides advice for healthy plant-based diets.2100 W. Pierce Street # 106Milwaukee, Wisconsin US
Ellipse Fitness MilwaukeeRead MoreAt Ellipse Fitness, the only pieces of machinery that you operate are the levers, pulleys, and ball-and-socket mechanisms of your own skeleton.

These routines incorporate tools such as resistance bands, TRX suspension cords, kettle bells, battling ropes, and kickboxing equipment, though the primary instrument is always the human physique. In addition to their standard classes, the staff also hosts boot-camp sessions and seminars on mastering your metabolism. Their weight-loss programs encompass weekly check-ins, during which clients receive nutritional resources and gauge their progress by taking measurements instead of stockpiling all the food they didn't eat in a jar. Regardless of its ultimate goal, each Ellipse Fitness regimen involves personal attention and a holistic, full-body approach to wellness.591 E Erie StMilwaukee, WI US
The Barre Code MilwaukeeRead MoreA shared passion in fitness brought The Barre Code's co-founders Jillian Lorenz and Ariana Chernin together in 2009 to form a unique boutique studio crafted around women's fitness. After years of independently choreographing workouts, the duo joined forces to form The Barre Code –formerly Barre Bee Fit– a fitness program dedicated to crafting workout regimens around the Barre Code mantra. Since 2010, the pair have been teaching classes that uphold the Barre Code's mantra and promote cardiovascular conditioning, strength-training, and restoration. In a short time, The Barre Code has expanded from a small studio space to a national franchise which includes multiple locations throughout the U.S. Workouts center around the ballet barre and feature stamina-building exercises that help rapidly build stronger arms, abs, thighs, and glutes. New routines are available each week and classes that include kickboxing, high-intensity interval training, yoga, and dance continually evolve to keep up with fitness innovations. Participants can also count on instructors to regularly introduce new props and moves to keep them interested and seeing results.225 North Water StreetMilwaukee, WI US
Mission: Metabolism BootcampRead MoreInside a facility called the Fitness Asylum, trainers embark on a life-changing mission with clients: to get their bodies fit and help them lose weight. They call this quest Mission: Metabolism Bootcamp, and employ dozens of exercises to meet those goals. Despite the variety of activities—which could range from classic lifting and sprinting to flexibility and joint activation training—the goal remains focused and simple. By challenging different groups of muscles with high intensity interval training, the body is encouraged to increase its appetite for energy and calorie-burning. Each boot camp stretches over a three-week period, increasing in intensity with every meeting. Campers who pursue several sessions in a row get a one-week rest between each session to keep their bodies healthy and to prevent the free weights from getting too dizzy.2612 South Greeley Suite 220Milwaukee, WI US

We used Garden Grocer on a recent vacation trip to Disney World. Not only was it easy to order everything we needed but they delivered everything - including the fruits - in great shape just as if I'd done the shopping myself. Made it easy to enjoy the vacation.
Everything was delivered early, exactly as requested and quality merchandise.
When I arrived at the Caribbean Beach Resort, I just had to call the main desk & asked them that I was expecting a delivery from Garden Grocer. They connected me to the correct area & said it would be delivered in about 10-20 min. In about 10 min. delivery was knocking at my door. Great to have a case of water & breakfast foods in the room. I would use them again, & would recommend that you use them too. Yvonne from NJ at Disney Resort on April 1-6, 2014

8. Jody-Anne Maxwell, first contestant from outside the United States to win the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
Maxwell, from Kingston, Jamaica, was the winner of the 1998 Scripps National Spelling Bee at the age of 12. She was the first contestant in history from outside the United States to win in the history of the competition.
Maxwell qualified for the Scripps competition by winning Jamaica's National Spelling Bee Championship, which her sister Janice had also won in 1990. Her prizes for winning the "national" bee included $10,000 cash and an education trust fund of $11,000 (U.S).
Maxwell was also a contestant on Nickelodeon's game show Figure it Out in 1998. She successfully stumped the panel of judges for all three rounds.
She is now studying law.

Huston Smith: No, He Didn't Support the Iraq War
Bill Broadway, in the Wa Po (3-12-05):
From an interview with Huston Smith, a religious icon and a strongly opinionated individual:
Q: Professor Smith, you've said that Westerners have been "ravished" by science, taken in by technologies and inventions that make life easier but offer little insight into spiritual reality. What do you mean by that?
A: Science is empirical, all about physical senses that tell us about the world. But physical senses are not the only senses we have. Nobody has ever seen a thought. Nobody has ever seen a feeling. And yet thoughts and feelings are where we live our lives most immediately, and science cannot connect with that.
What are the religious trends in the world today?
A huge fact that affects that answer is that we're at war [against terrorism]. Both sides claim that God is
on their side, that they are champions of God's will, and the enemy is the Devil. . . . The rhetoric is exactly the same on both sides: We're defining God's will and the enemy is the Axis of Evil or the Evil Empire. They say exactly the same thing about us. Just change the name.
Did you support the war in Iraq?
I emphatically did not. I think our hope is to work together, and here [the United States is acting] unilaterally. We started our verydevastating war, and look what it's done to our finances, our deficit.
We're paying for it with a credit card, and our kids are going to have to pay off our credit card.
At 85, Huston Smith is one of the most revered and longest-working historians of religion. He has studied, practiced and taught for a half-century and achieved crossover status by finding an audience among academics as well as the general public.
His book "The World's Religions" has been on college and seminary reading lists and sold 2.5 million copies since its publication in 1958 as "The Religions of Man." In 1996, Smith was the subject of a five-part PBS series, "The Wisdom of Faith," and was introduced by host Bill Moyers as "the most influential religious scholar of the 20th century."
Smith, who was interviewed by telephone this week, will make a rare appearance in Washington on Wednesday when he presents the 23rd annual Zeidman Memorial Lecture at Sidwell Friends School in Northwest. On Thursday, he will attend classes and talk with students, said Jon Zeljo, chairman of the history department and director of Sidwell's 22-year-old Chinese studies program. ...
In his lecture, " China's Place in World History," which is open to the public, Smith said he will focus on the Chinese emphasis on relationships rather than individual achievement. ...
Smith's work hasn't been without criticism. During a teaching career spanning four decades at major universities -- Washington University, MIT, Syracuse University and the University of California at Berkeley -- some colleagues accused Smith of lacking objectivity.
"I'm not afraid of losing my objectivity as I grope" for answers, he responded when Moyers asked about that criticism. "I think it's transparent to the student from the first class that I don't want to indoctrinate them. I'm honest about that.
"I really try to make myself a plate-glass window so they're not listening to me, they're not looking at me. They're looking at these wisdom traditions and what they say. And if you give students, the students with all their busy-ness, if you put something before them of worth, they will see it and move toward appropriating it."
Others attacked Smith for participating in Timothy Leary's early 1960s experiments at Harvard University involving the mind-altering drugs psilocybin, mescaline and LSD.
"I took some hallucinogens and got criticized for it. But I don't care," Smith said. "No one in human history has given as much thought to the interweaving of altered states of consciousness and religion as I have. It's an immensely important issue which nobody is touching today."

Short Cuts
At one time there was much talk of a Saint Expeditus, and some good people were led to believe that, when there was need of haste, petitioning Saint Expeditus was likely to meet with prompt settlement. However, there is no adequate reason to think that any such saint was ever invoked in the early Christian centuries; in fact it is more than doubtful whether the saint ever existed. In the "Hieronymianum" the name Expeditus occurs among a group of martyrs both on the 18th and 19th of April, being assigned in the one case to Rome, and in the other to Melitene in Armenia; but there is no vestige of any tradition which would corroborate either mention, whereas there is much to suggest that in both lists the introduction of the name is merely a copyist's blunder. Hundreds of similar blunders have been quite definitely proved to exist in the same document.
There is also a story which pretends to explain the origin of this "devotion" by an incident of modern date. A packing case, we are told, containing a body of a saint from the catacombs, was sent to a community of nuns in Paris. The date of its dispatch was indicated by the use of the word "spedito", but the recipients mistook this for the name of the martyr and set to work with great energy to propagate his cult. From these simple beginnings, it is asserted, a devotion to St. Expeditus spread rapidly through many Catholic countries. It should be pointed out that though the recognition of St. Expeditus as the patron of dispatch depends beyond doubt upon a play upon words - still the particular story about the Paris nuns falls to pieces, because as far back as 1781 this supposed martyr, St. Expeditus, was chosen patron of the town of Acireale in Sicily, and because pictures of him were in existence in Germany in the eighteenth century which plainly depicted him as a saint to be invoked against procrastination.
