Meet the new ASUW President Brian Schueler and the new Vice President Emily Kath
Although Brian has had the privilege of traveling to many different locales, Buffalo, Wyoming is truly his home town. Upon Graduation from Buffalo High, Brian came to UW to pursue a degree in International Studies, and later added an Economics major. During his time at UW, Brian has been active in ASUW, and was a recipient of the Charlotte Hearne Davis Freshman Senator Scholarship for his work on the freshman senate. He has served as an ex-officio for the Intra-fraternity Council and continues to be involved with his own fraternity, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, where he served as the vice president for the past academic year. Brain was a recipient of the Chinese Ambassador's Wyoming Scholarship, and spent his Junior year in Beijing, China, studying Chinese which was a truly transformative experience.
This semester, Brian has spent much of his time working as a senator, and putting in extra time to better understand ASUW in preparation for the election. He is very excited to get to work on the platforms that he and Emily have put together, and looks forward to a great year ahead!
Emily Kath, a Wyoming native, is a junior at University of Wyoming studying Political Science and Communications in the Honors Program. Emily was recently awarded as the 2015 Milward Simpson Outstanding Junior in the Political Science department. Ms. Kath is also a student ambassador for the College of Arts and Sciences. Emily recently spent time in Washington D.C. because she was accepted upon application as a student lobbyist to advocate for collegiate issues. She just finished working as a legislative aide for Representative Samuel Krone in the Wyoming State Legislature. Last semester, Emily worked in Washington D.C. as a Personal Office Intern for Senator John Barrasso. Prior to accepting the position with Senator Barrasso's office, Emily worked as an intern at Lorenzo de 'Medici Institute in Florence, Italy for The Florentine Newspaper.
Upon return to the university, Ms. Kath remains active on campus as a member of Delta Delta Delta sorority, National Society of Collegiate Scholars, Mortar Board, intramurals, and other various organizations. Throughout her involvement, Emily has held key leadership positions. Recognized for her contribution to student government, ASUW named Emily ASUW Freshman Senator of the Year, ASUW Student at Large of the Year and a member of the ASUW Committee of the Year.
What is ASUW? ASUW IS WORKING FOR YOU!
Every fee-paying student is a member of the Associated Students of the University of Wyoming. So, ASUW student government acts as the voice of the students. We urge every student to GET INVOLVED, whether it be in student government or in any number of other student organizations.

Deputy Christopher Shurley reported that Eugene Rockmore and Bryan Pitts were pulling a trailer loaded with a lawn mower and other yard tools toward Macon on Gray Highway when the 2005 Dodge pickup truck they were driving began to smoke. They were attempting to pull into the gas station parking lot when the truck stopped. It was in the entrance to the parking lot, but the trailer was still in the roadway on Joycliff Road.
Rockmore got out to open the hood, but when he did so, the fire flashed up and the two men ran from the vehicle.
The engine compartment and cab of the truck were engulfed in flames when fire department personnel arrived and extinguished the fire. The trailer and lawn equipment were not damaged.
The truck owner, Bobby Daniels of B.R. Daniels Enterprises, came and retrieved the trailer and undamaged lawn equipment.

Should we send a Democrat or Republican to Congress this year? Does it matter?
In answer to the second question, yes, it does, if the past is any indication. Most national representatives vote the way their party votes. If you look at Obama Care, as I understand it, 60 percent of Americans were against it, yet the Democrats passed it.
Sometimes the Republicans are a bit eager to compromise on core issues.
Over the past few years, there is another group who have made an impact on the national scene. They are the Tea Party candidates. They are conservative and make no bones about it. They don't compromise on core issues.
Therefore, the powers that be on both sides of the aisle have some pretty ugly things to say about them.
That's okay, because most patriots are considered radical in their time and not welcomed by those in favor of the status quo.
In answer to the first question, that's up to you. Do you like things the way they're going or do you think we need to get back to the Constitution and the fundamentals that made America great?
This question will be answered on Nov. 6.

City of Charleston Mayor Joseph P. Riley Jr. declared May 16 to be Christine Osborne Day in Charelston.
The mayor made the declaration on-stage during the Kids Run & Wonderfest at Hampton Park on Friday, April 5. Riley stated, "Christine does so much for the children in this community," as he honored Osborne, the owner of Wonder Works, with stores in Mount Pleasant, West Ashley, downtown Charleston and on Kiawah Island.
May 16 is Osborne's birthday, and was proclaimed an official day in Charleston to celebrate her many contributions to the toy industry, children's charities and the Charleston community.
Surprised to receive the honor, Osborne said, "I am speechless. I had no idea this was happening. Mayor Riley has been a supporter of all our endeavors to honor children for their incredible contributions to this community and I hope that on May 16th, everyone will celebrate all of the youngsters who have started their own businesses and created non-profits right here in the Lowcountry."
Craig Young from Toysmith, one of Wonder Works' toy vendors based in Washington state, wrote a letter to the mayor months ago requesting a proclamation in her honor, even a street named after her.
Young said, "Christine is so amazing and does so much for our industry and in her community. I wanted to do something special for her that singled her out. She's always shining a light on others. This one's for her."
Wonder Works was a key partner in planning and promoting the 2013 Cooper River Bridge Run & Wonderfest event.
An estimated 7,500 parents and children attended the April 5 event this year, a notable increase from the previous year.
Julian Smith, CRBR Executive Director approached Osborne during her company's 2012 Wonderfest event and asked her if the toy store chain would like to partner with the Kids Run to bring in child entertainers, philanthropists and entrepreneurs.
Osborne agreed and went to work adding national toy company sponsors at the festival and handing out more than 6,000 free toys to children who attended the Hampton Park event on April 5.

BEIJING — China's Foreign Ministry will hold a strategic dialogue with North Korea this week following Pyongyang's surprise offer of new talks with the U.S., a ministry spokeswoman said Monday.
Vice Foreign Minister Zhang Yesui will meet North Korean First Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan on Wednesday in Beijing, ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told reporters at a regularly scheduled briefing. Hua said the two will discuss bilateral relations and the situation on the Korean Peninsula.
"China has been paying close attention to developments on the peninsula, and has been actively working toward the early resumption of dialogue and negotiation by all sides," Chunying said, referring to long-stalled six-nation nuclear disarmament talks hosted by China that include South Korea, Japan, Russia, the U.S. and North Korea.
North Korea surprised many on Sunday by proposing "senior-level" talks with the U.S. to ease tensions and negotiate a formal peace treaty ending the Korean War, which concluded only with an armistice.
The Obama administration said Sunday it is open to dialogue, but wants "credible negotiations" that involve North Korean compliance with U.N. resolutions and would lead to a nuclear-free North.
The proposal is expected to be discussed in meetings this week in Washington involving U.S., Japanese and South Korean officials.
Tensions spiked this year over a long-range rocket launch and nuclear test by North Korea which angered China, the North's most important ally and its biggest source of trade and aid.
Beijing's pique apparently prompted a visit last month to Beijing by a top North Korean envoy who stated that Pyongyang is willing to take steps to return to talks.
The envoy, Vice Marshal Choe Ryong Hae, was quoted as saying Pyongyang is "willing to take active measures in this regard," although it wasn't clear whether it had committed to any timeframe.
China has backed United Nations sanctions against the North, but would be unwilling to come down more harshly on its ally, Zhang Yunling, director of international studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told a forum in Beijing on Monday.
However, Pyongyang's continuing refusal to rejoin denuclearization talks and spurning of China's calls for it to undertake economic reforms would "definitely affect our bilateral relations," Zhang said.

"I would have dropped either one of them," Guillard told MMAjunkie.com. "I used to drop Diego Sanchez in practice all the time. When I hit people, I hurt people. That's just what I do."
Guillard (31-12-2 MMA, 12-8 UFC) will be looking to hurt Pearson (15-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) in the worst of ways when they square off at the Phones 4U Arena in Manchester, England. The event airs on FOX Sports 2 following prelims on MMAjunkie.com.
The 30-year-old is famous for his punching power and the highlight-reel finishes he has produced in the octagon over the years. And even though Pearson has also found a lot of success with his striking in the past, Guillard believes his standup skills are simply on another level.
"Ross better worry about my hands," Guillard said. "I am the hardest hitting '55er at 155. I've watched him bang with guys, I've watched him connect on good shots and not even drop people. Everybody I hit, I drop. Everybody I hit, I f--k them up.
"Him being a harder hitter than me, I don't think that's going to be possible."
With Pearson being from England, Guillard will be entering hostile territory for his 21st UFC fight. Most athletes would be hesitant taking a fight against a hometown hero, but Guillard has no problem with it he just knows he must finish the fight to avoid any controversial judging.
"I don't like fights going to decisions, especially in other people's hometowns, so I'm looking to finish this fight," Guillard said. "This is going to be a fight where I'm not only fighting him, but against the clock because I don't want any bad decisions, I don't want any close decisions. I want to finish the fight and know that I won the fight.
"I've got to go in there and do my job. I'm not coming all the way to England to get my ass whipped. I don't want to have to fly all the way back home depressed."
Flying back across the pond with a loss on his record would be a heartbreaking scenario for Guillard, especially after all the work he put in during training camp.
Guillard has been inconsistent when it comes to having a true home base to train in recent years, and he has had mixed success during that time.
For this camp, though, he settled in at American Top Team in Florida, and after making several changes to his life both in and out of the cage, Guillard believes he's in a good place for the first time in a long time.
"All my coaches, they had their credentials, but sometimes it's also a business, and to me my family comes before anybody else," Guillard explained. "I have to be there for my family and unfortunately, certain things didn't work out with certain guys, and you have to move on.
"I know everything worked out perfect with where I'm at at American Top Team. I got new management, I got a new team, I got a new mouth guard, I got new everything. I got rid of all the old stuff, and out with the old, in with the new."
Guillard may have switched up the location of his training, but when the octagon door shuts he'll bring the same weapons that have made him a mainstay in the organization since 2005.
Looking at the matchup with Pearson on paper, it would seem fans are in for a stellar striking battle between two fighters with strong standup skills.
And while Guillard agrees the fight is likely going to play out on the feet, he is confident Pearson's chin won't be able to hold up long enough to make it a back-and-forth war resembling Melendez vs. Sanchez.
"I'm a heavy-handed person, so most slugfests don't really work out well for the opponents that I fight," Guillard said. "When I hit people, I drop people. I know how to hit people. ... It's going to be a little bit of a slugfest, but if I had to flip a coin I would say he's going to fall before I fall."
Even though he is coming off a jaw-rattling knockout of Mac Danzig earlier this year, Guillard doesn't believe his job with the promotion is entirely secure at this point.
He knows he must put together a string of victories to maintain his position on the frequently evolving UFC roster and when it comes right down to it, Guillard admits he won't ever feel comfortable with his spot unless he is the owner of a shiny championship belt.
"With the UFC, you can win one and lose one and still be cut," Guillard said. "So right now I'm still fighting for my job. I'm fighting for my job until I feel I have a belt around my waist to secure my job. That's the only time you have job security is with the belt around your waist."

Lincoln: A Novel
by Vidal, Gore
Gore Vidal's death on July 31st made me think of his 1984 novel about Abraham Lincoln, which I read shortly after it was published. The story is told from different points of view. As always with Vidal, nothing is sacred, no tradition goes unchallenged. One character remarks that Lincoln may have split a few rails in his time, but he was always a lawyer and a politician. Yet I have to say that despite all the debunking in the book, despite the revisionist view of Lincoln, I had a greater admiration than ever when I finished the book. All these years after reading the book, I remember the astonishment of one character when he realizes how fiercely focused Lincoln is on maintaining the union. And I remember the difficulty with which Lincoln speaks about his wife's developing mental illness. When you look at a collection of Vidal quotations that was thrown together on the web at his death(http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2012/aug/01/gore-vidal-best-quotes), he might come across as a snide guy. And okay, he could be that. But Keith Burris wrote an interesting essay about Vidal and William Buckley (http://blogs.providencejournal.com/ri-talks/this-new-england/2012/08/keith-c-burris-vidal-and-buckley.html); and this novel is a winner.

Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West
by Wickenden, Dorothy
What could have propelled two young Society women from New York to leave their privileged lives and travel west to teach homesteaders' children in early twentieth century Colorado? These women, Dorothy Woodruff (the author's grandmother) and her close friend Rosamond Underwood, were both wealthy and well-educated but seemingly drifting through life, spending time in Europe, doing charity work, meeting suitable men. But in the summer of 1916 they learned of two teaching jobs in the remotest area of the Colorado Rockies. Thus began nine months that would change their lives. Their experiences there were both physically and intellectually challenging but both women seemed undaunted by it all. The novice school teachers learned much from the tough homesteaders whose lives were hard and laborious. Their year in Colorado transformed their lives as well as the lives of their students and their families. Nothing Daunted is a glimpse into two separate ways of life at the turn of the last century when eastern gentility met the wild west.

No! I Don't Want to Join a Book Club: Diary of a 60th Year
by Ironside, Virginia
Just as Helen Fielding's character Bridget Jones struck a chord for the thirty-somethings, baby boomers will be able to identify with Ironside's Marie Sharp. As she turns 60 years of age, Marie renounces all the simplistic advice offered by today's books and talk show hosts about ageing. She doesn't want to take Italian lessons, go to boring dinner parties, live with a Masai tribe in Africa for three months, and, no – she doesn't want to join a book club to "keep her mind lively". "Either you've got a lively brain or you haven't" states our out-spoken but kindly heroine. The great thing about being old is you no longer have to, or can't, do so many things! Ironside, a British "agony aunt", or advice columnist, has crafted an amusing and poignant look at women of a certain age… or as Marie would say, "women between 40 and death".

Battle Hymn of a Tiger Mother
by Chua, Amy
Western mothers are so afraid of damaging their little ones' psyches, that they let them off too easy, have low expectations, and limit their children's ability to achieve great things. Or so says Ms. Chua, a self-described Chinese, or "tiger" mother who has great success with driving her older daughter to excel in everything she does. But when her younger daughter rebels, growing more and more extreme in her refusals to obey her mother, it becomes a matter of an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object. Ms. Chua is horrified that her daughter is so disrespectful, and yet, eventually, she comes to believe that Lulu's stubbornness and determination to find her own way will lead to its own kind of greatness. What begins as a didactic treatise on the superiority of Chinese parenting, segues into a gradual understanding that this way may not be for everyone and maybe that's not altogether a bad thing.

The Ten, Make that Nine, Habits of Very Organized People. Make That Ten : The Tweets of Steve Martin
by Martin, Steve
Steve Martin's tweets can't be read at work since chuckling out loud is a dead giveaway you're not working. This slim volume gives the reader glimpses into his personal life. The book is not just his tweets it includes tweets from his followers. One of the funniest examples of his interaction with his followers was a Christmas carol sing along, Steve gave a line of a song and his followers came up with witty responses. Steve took the responses and came up with a new song. Rudolph the red nosed reindeer had a very: "large mortgage balloon payment" and if you ever saw him: "you would tell him he's foreclosed" He's also not afraid to tackle such hard hitting issues as the hokey pokey and inventing new cuss words.

A super easy salad to make, this is my go to when traveling. Made by massaging avocado into torn leaves of kale and then adding a squeeze of lemon to soften the leaves, and then tossing in sprouts.
Full of vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, and antioxidants to combat travel stress (including time zone changes, sitting on airplanes, and living in hotel rooms) while boosting my immune system. I carried this yummy creation onto my last flight from NJ to LA, and took it with me to Las Vegas for my raw food debut at ACAM's medical conference at the Paris Hotel last week, where they served up 5 of my raw food vegan recipes to over 500 doctors!
Kale, Avocado, Sprouts
Into large mixing bowl, place kale and massage with avocado. Squeeze lemon juice, and massage. Add sprouts and salt, if using. Massage and toss to mix well.
Will keep for several hours at room temperature. Store in fridge for a day or 2.

text: Mako boats have been around for decades, though they've changed quite a bit since being taken over by Tracker in the late 90's. The emphasis on growing model size reversed in the past few years, with many of Mako's newest and most exciting offerings in the 18' and under range. Though a full model line up to 28' is still offered, their new small boats, particularly the award-winning Pro Skiffs series, are extremely innovative and unique.

Located along the U.S. Highway 14 Bypass north and east of the SDSU campus, the Nathelle and Lawrence DeHaan Equestrian Center became the new home for Jackrabbit Equestrian at South Dakota State University when it opened in the fall of 2008.
Dedicated on Oct. 15, 2008, project benefactor Nathelle DeHaan's avid support of South Dakota State University and love for horses grew to make the SDSU Equestrian program and the Nathelle and Lawrence DeHaan Equestrian Center a reality.
A 1937 graduate of South Dakota State, Nathelle DeHaan provided the initial gift to build the facility. For nearly five decades, she and her late husband, Lawrence played an active role in the local horse community, traveling to judge and show quarter horses.
She always dreamed of the day when young women could attend college, compete at the highest level and create experiences and memories that last a lifetime.
"The Equestrian program provides a wonderful opportunity for young women," she says. "I'm excited about the future of the SDSU Equestrian team."
Completion of the building in the spring of 2008 more than tripled the team's previous training facilities. At nearly 26,000 square feet, the $3.6 million climate-controlled facility features an indoor riding arena, 42 stalls with additional areas for grooming, washing and preparing the horses, as well as separate on-site work areas for veterinarians and farriers. In addition to the area for the horses, the building houses a team locker room equipped with a study area.
"Being able to move to this expanded facility enables us to enhance the practices and increase the student-athletes' preparedness," head coach Megan McGee said. "It makes the flow of operation much, much smoother."
The additional space allows the team's roster to eventually grow to 60 riders, while continuing to offer the NCAA-maximum 15 full scholarships.
The proximity of the Nathelle and Lawrence DeHaan Equestrian Center to the main SDSU campus makes it unique in the collegiate equestrian ranks and should allow for the equestrian program to become further ingrained in the SDSU Athletic Department as it continues to mature.
Once the SDSU Foundation completes fund-raising for Phase I, planning begins for the second phase of the project. Phase II includes the addition of a stall barn, a large outdoor riding arena, viewing rooms, coaching offices, a meeting room and trophy room.
"That next component will be necessary in order to maintain a competitive squad," McGee said.For more information on the SDSU Equestrian team, or to make a donation for scholarship support or facilities, contact Associate Athletic Director for Development Mike Burgers at the SDSU Foundation by phone at (605) 697-7475 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com

Best Uses
Stained my entire fence in less the time if I would've used a brush. Very easy to clean up as well. Keep in mind, that you still have to brush in the stain with a paint brush, but applying the stain is what saved me so much time in the process.
Best Uses
Had to substantially thin the latex paint I used, and still experience some spattering.
Easy to use, easy to clean.

Chicago travels south to Texas for the first time this season this weekend and will play the AHL-leading Texas Stars on Friday and the San Antonio Rampage on Saturday; the Wolves lost six of their eight games inside the Lone Star State last season (including playoffs).
--- Darren Haydar: Had a hand in all 7 of Chicago's goals last week, scoring four times and assisting on three others en route to being named the CCM/AHL Player of the Week ... Tallied his 56th and 57th three-point outings dating back to the start of the 2005-06 season on Wednesday (2G, A) and Saturday (G, 2A) ... Paces the Wolves with 17 goals, 23 assists, 40 points, and a +11 plus/minus rating in 45 games this season ... Amassed 13 goals and 26 points in 21 tilts since the start of 2013, which includes 8 markers and 13 points in his last nine outings despite being held scoreless in three of those contests
--- Andrew Ebbett: Collected 4 points (G, 3A) in three games last week after he rejoined the Wolves from Vancouver on Feb. 19 ... Ranks third on the Wolves with 17 helpers and 25 points in 32 games this season ... Tallied 6 assists and 8 points during a six-game point streak dating back to Dec. 30 ... Has averaged 1.07 points per game over his last 15 games with Chicago ... Skated in five games with the Canucks this year
--- Matt Climie: Started all three games for the Wolves last week and posted a 2-1-0 mark, 1.63 goals-against average and .952 save percentage ... Turned in a 38-save performance to earn his fourth shutout of the season on Saturday against Peoria ... Shares fourth in the AHL with a .921 save percentage and ranks ninth in the league with a 2.39 goals-against average in 31 games (14-14-2) during the 2012-13 campaign ... Stopped 239 of 248 shots and has posted a 1.11 goals-against average, .964 save percentage, and three shutouts over his last eight victories ... Has only dropped two regulation decisions since Jan. 3

--- The Wolves have posted a 12-5-1-1 record in their last 19 games (since losing players to the end of the NHL lockout on Jan. 6) to move into a tie for seventh place in the Western Conference playoff standings; Chicago sits in second place in the Midwest Division with 59 points in 50 tilts (26-17-4-3); the team's 50 games are tied for the fewest-played in the AHL and it holds at least two games in hand on 11 of the other 14 teams in the Western Conference.
--- Starting with its game at Texas on Friday, Chicago will sprint to the close of the 2012-13 campaign by playing 26 games in the season's final 52 days; the Wolves have 11 home games and 15 road tilts remaining.
--- Chicago has bagged a power-play goal in 12 of its last 13 home games, including each of its last nine tilts in Rosemont (16 of 56), but has lit the lamp with the extra skater just once in its last six road tilts (two of 21); the Wolves, who ranked 25th in the AHL on the man-advantage on Jan. 1, now hold 12th in the league with a 17.7 conversion rate on the power play this year (35 of 188).
--- Four Wolves players will make six library visits this week to close out this season's "Read to Succeed" program, presented by Butternut Bread and J.U.L.I.E. Inc. For the full schedule of appearances visit chicagowolves.com or call 1-800-THE-WOLVES.

Here is the thing though. If you can make a knit stitch. And you can make a purl stitch. And okay, maybe fix a dropped stitch. Then YOU can make anything. Honestly. YOU can.
The hardest thing about knitting is reading the pattern. And I guess actually knowing what it means. However, if you have someone that can help you decipher a pattern, then you can make anything.
The first thing I ever knit was a sweater. I learned how to cast on, knit and purl, all within that first project. My mother helped me and I actually had her sitting next to me every step of the way. (Blessed and lucky, I know.) I was in college on my three week winter break. Cold weather in Florida meant movie time and okay maybe I should learn to knit time. I did. And actually headed back to college wearing my new sweater.

The former Liverpool manager has been installed as Chelsea manager until the end of the season following the dismissal of Roberto Di Matteo on Wednesday.
There was some surprise that Benitez was willing to accept a short-term contract, but the 52-year-old said the chance to manage Chelsea was too good to pass up.
"My priority was to work in the Premier League, I'm really happy to be here with a top side," said Benitez, who confirmed that Boudewijn Zenden would be his assistant.
"For me the most important thing is I am here because I want to be here. I was looking for the right opportunity, I was looking for a top side who can fight for trophies.
"I don't care about the short-term (deal), what I have in my head is to win every game. We have five trophies to fight for. We will see what happens, in seven months we can win some trophies.
"At this level you are expected to win, do it well, and win trophies. I have a lot of years' experience at this level, and I will do what I have to do to win games.
"I like to do things in the right way for the fans. I am sure they will be happy with a manager with a winning mentality."
Benitez was also quizzed on his previous comments about Chelsea made while he was in charge of Liverpool, many of which were less than sympathetic towards the team and supporters.
He said: "I want to be honest, if I say this or that, I have to analyse the context. We were playing against Chelsea in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
"If I am a fan I want to see the manager fighting for my club. I don't see this as a lack of respect for Chelsea's fans, just a manager defending his team before an important game."
Delighted enough for Benitez to keep his job when former Barcelona boss Guardiola ends his one-year sabbatical from the game?
"At this moment, I'm here, I got the job," Benitez said.
"Winning games is a guarantee for everything. If you can do it in a row, you can win trophies.
"We have won nine trophies. Can we win more? If I go to another country or continent, or a mid-table team, I could do a great job and not win trophies.
"Here there are five trophies to win. We will see."
Benitez could not escape the suggestion he was only keeping the seat warm for Abramovich's number one target.
"I have a very good relationship with Guardiola, a great manager," he added.
"What will happen in the future, you never know.
"For nearly two years, I was waiting for the right opportunity. Now I have this chance.
"I have to do my best to try and take it."
He added: "I don't need to win trophies. I would like to win trophies."

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6, 2012 U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack has appointed six members and alternates to serve on the National Honey Board. Representatives will complete three-year terms of office beginning Jan. 1, 2013.
Newly appointed board members include first handler Jill M. Clark of Lancaster, Pa. and importer member Charles V. Kocot of New Providence, N.J. First handler Tony D. Schmitz of Defiance, Ind. and importer Nicholas J. Sargeantson of Wilton, Conn. will serve as alternates.

USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) provides board oversight in accordance with the Honey Packers and Importers Research, Promotion, Consumer Education and Industry Information Order. The program is administered by board members, who are selected by the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture.
Research and promotion programs are industry-funded, authorized by Congress and date back to 1966. Since then, Congress has authorized the establishment of 20 research and promotion boards. They empower farmers and ranchers, establishing a framework for them to pool resources and combine efforts to develop new markets, strengthen existing markets, and conduct important research and promotion activities. AMS oversight ensures fiscal responsibility, program efficiency and fair treatment of participating stakeholders.

Quicksilver Highway? Never heard of it. Has anyone else? If so can ya tell me a bit about it?
It's in the Library on the main portion of the site. Here's the link to that page with more information.
It's a decent timekiller. I'd recommend it.
I had to look this one up to see what it was, now that i have though, i can't seem to get my hands on a copy.
I have been looking for this one too. My brother-in-law found it at Wal-Mart in the $5 bin of all places. I've offered him $15 for it and he says no way but I can barrow it anytime.
I've never heard of this one, either!
I remember watching this when it premiered on FOX in 1997.
I saw this..Chattery Teeth was in it, and it was done quite well..It was pretty humourous, actually. In a way, the movie reminded me of an extended twilight zone, except that it was in colour.
It's quite bad ... like all Mick Garris films. (Apologies to anyone who needs one for that opinion, but I'm standin' by it all the way!)
hmmm, i've never heard of it either. I checked with my library and they dont have it, so now i'll head to Half Priced Books and see if they have a copy.

A noticeable figure out on the arena floor at Citizens Business Bank Arena on Saturday night was Brett Rogers. That led to speculation the former Strikeforce and Bellator heavyweight had signed with World Series of Fighting.
But Abdel-Aziz said that while the two sides are talking, no deal is done.
"We're talking," he said. "We're in talks, but he's not signed."

Authorities have captured a German shepherd they said attacked a 12-year-old North Augusta girl while she was walking her dog on Tuesday.
The incident happened about 6 a.m. near the intersection of Wildwood Drive and Landon Lane in North Augusta, according to a report by the Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
The girl was walking her dog near her home when the German shepherd attacked her near the woodline on the roadway, according to the report. The victim told officers the dog bit her hands as she tried to defend herself, and officers could see lacerations to the girl's palms and fingers.
The victim ran back to her home, falling in the road along the way and suffering scrapes to her knees and elbows, according to the report.
A spokesman for Aiken County Animal Services said on Wednesday that the dog was captured later on Tuesday morning.
The victim's mother said she had seen the dog in the area several times before, and that she's also seen it "charge" other residents in the area, according to the report.
While trying to locate the dog's owner, officers were directed to homes on Sycamore Street and Elder Lane, according to the report. A neighbor on Sycamore Street told officers the dog's owner lived on the street, and that the suspect has been "trying to call the dog" in their yard. The neighbor reportedly saw the dog running from the suspect's home on multiple occasions in the past.
About a half-dozen other neighbors near the scene of the incident reported seeing the dog running loose in the neighborhood before.
The suspect told officers that he didn't own a German shepherd and had not seen one in his yard at all, according to the report.
Capt. Troy Elwell said if you see any stray dog, stay away.
"Don't approach a stray dog," he said. "You don't know the mentality of the animal."
Elwell said if you see a stray animal, call Aiken County Animal Services at 642-1537. Call 911 if an animal is attacking a person.
Teddy Kulmala covers the crime beat for the Aiken Standard. He is a graduate of Clemson University and hails from Williston.

The government should invest, in public libraries, some of the money saved by withdrawing the EMA (Educational Maintenance Allowance, which supports disadvantaged kids in FE). Why? Because of the role public libraries in the education of those not able to pursue formal education beyond the legal minimum, and indeed as a valuable supplement to the education of children even when they are still at school. For example, see the testimonials on the Voices for the Library site.
Does this role not meet with the traditional Tory idea of enabling people to fend for themselves rather than depend on the state? Then again this not a traditional Tory government, but a cabal of plutocrats hell bent on dismantling the state regardless of the social cost.
So, the barbarians are at the gate, but what can we do? Organise, and fight back. If you are a twitter users I suggest you follow @UKpling, and there's lots of info on the Voices for the Library web site, including a listing of campaigns you might wish to support.

Washington, DC (SportsNetwork.com) - Mikhail Grabovski, Brooks Laich and Nicklas Backstrom scored shootout goals to lead the Washington Capitals to a 3-2 win over the Florida Panthers on Saturday.
The Capitals led 2-1 late in regulation, but Florida capitalized on a 4-on-3 power-play when Tomas Fleischmann beat Michal Neuvirth to force overtime.
Neuvirth stopped 31-of-33 shots he faced in the victory and made a difficult glove save in the shootout on Jonathan Huberdeau, allowing Backstrom to wrist the game-winner past Scott Clemmensen.
"Tonight was an ugly one," said Backstrom. "Neuvy (Neuvirth) played great and kept us in the game."
Backstrom and John Carlson scored in regulation for the Caps, who were coming off a 7-0 rout of the Flyers on Friday.
Jesse Winchester scored Florida's first goal, while Clemmensen made 21 saves in defeat.
"I'm still confident in our guys," said Florida coach Kevin Dineen.
Mike Green and Tomas Kopecky were whistled for duel roughing penalties 15:27 into the third period. A Steve Olesky flashing penalty moments later gave Florida a 4-on-3 advantage, and they made the most of it.
Huberdeau gained control of the puck behind the net and quickly slid a pass to a wide-open Fleischmann, who took advantage of Neuvirth looking for the puck and slapped it home.
"Too many penalties," said Capitals coach Adam Oates. "They scored a big goal for themselves there at the end and broke our streak. It's too bad because we had been on a nice run."
Winchester and Carlson scored 36 seconds apart in the second period. Winchester's goal, a wrister from Scottie Upshall, tied the game at 1-1 but Carlson helped the Caps regain the lead with his first of the season.
Backstrom opened the scoring just 3:19 into the contest when he came up with a loose puck on a Washington transition opportunity and beat Clemmensen.
Alex Ovechkin was held out of the Caps' lineup for the second straight game
after leaving Monday's clash with Vancouver with an upper-body injury ...
Carlson's goal was the 100th point of his NHL career ... Washington has now
won eight in a row over the Panthers.

Ever so often I come across a lot of items that don't merit a story or a column, but they do merit publication. And then there are observations that are not worth the time for a column.
I love summer. Summer is glorious in Florida.
It's hot, humid, sticky. Beer pool season.
It's also budget time.
I don't know who in their evil mind set government's fiscal year to begin on Oct. 1, but they ruin summer for everyone with it. There must be a special place in hell reserved for the person who came up with this idea.
The timetable has government body is struggling with balancing revenues and expenses into a budget during the hottest, most uncomfortable part of the year.
My father and I were constantly at odds. I can't remember how or when it started, but I do remember thinking that he was the meanest, most unfair man alive.
That changed right after I left high school as I started learning more about him as a man, and not just my daddy.
By the time I moved to Georgia, we had a solid relationship-an unspoken one of mutual respect and trust.
He wasn't into sentiment, and I wasn't about to broach my feelings of admiration for him. I thought I had years to tell him how much he meant to me, and how I finally understood the man he was.
Let's see, it was late July and I was still new on the job.
I asked a Sheriff's Office spokesperson about air conditioner burglaries in the county and I also noted my street alone had an AC stolen that was almost turned into a home burglary. And the same road also had a home invasion that resulted in the suspect's death and an armed robbery.
Like a mantra he said crime was down and pointed to 2007 figures showing crime went down in Levy County.
Being a Mets fan, it's awfully hard to make friends with a Phillies fan. After all, that's the team that knocked the Mets out of the playoffs last year, and they're about to do it again.
However, there was one man in Levy County that I could call and joke with about baseball, and sports in general. As late as a week ago Tuesday, we were on the phone to each other talking about the pennant race, among other things in local sports. He was my favorite Phillies fan.
His name was Claude Lewis, and he was a writer and sports editor for our sister paper, the Chiefland Citizen.
I came looking for a job and I found a friend and serendipity.
Serendipity is something every journalist needs.
The tough, but garrulous journalism scholar John Bremner of the University of Kansas told journalists in his seminars they needed to find serendipity.
Serendipity occurs when you are on your way to one thing and you discover another thing. It brings magic and the joy of the unexpected.
You could have canned and sold serendipity.
You lived it very day.
You shared it every day.
No one is prepared when the doctor walks into the room and explains that you or a loved one has an illness that cannot be cured. Both family and patient often receive this news at a time when they are already at wit's end - emotionally, spiritually and physically. But what if the illness is there yet the conversation about end-of-life options never happens?
Fred and Ethel are dead. And so are the Clampetts. The entire clan.
For two days I have mourned the loss of my neighbors-not the sitcom stars of 50 years ago but an entire convocation of spiders, presumably banana spiders, that have resided at my back door all summer and most recently decided to expand their lodging to the front door.
For the last three summers, I have watched their homes develop over days, weeks and months- lacework webs that bear intricate patterns and designs.
Visitors often dodged them and admonished me to tear them down.
I have a friend who keeps her watches and clocks set an hour ahead at all times. By doing so, this perpetually late creature of habit has convinced herself that she is always tardy, and when she does show up for appointments, she's on time or early.
Now of course, somewhere deep within her psyche she knows that her clocks and watches are wrong and that could give her incentive to dally more and being really, really late.
But she's used her imagination enough over the years that the con works, thereby saving her from embarrassment and reprimand from family and employer alike.
Chiefland's sewer plant personnel have listened to a salesman and come up with a way to cut their energy use, cut fuel use, and cut the amount of sludge the City Water Reclamation Plant produces.
If you read the story in another part of this newspaper, you thought it was a story about money and saving energy.
Really, the story is about building relationships and trust.
Randy Wilkerson said it was his working relationship with a sales rep from TSC-Jacobs Group, the company that supplies the city with much of its wastewater equipment, that led to the savings.

Third! (just kidding).
WAR was one of the biggest disappointments in my personal gaming history. No. I take that back. It was THE biggest.
It would take some free play time to have a prayer at winning me back. 14-day retrial for previous members? Might be just what they need to get the numbers up a bit.

i did the ten day welcome back they deleted my squig herder which i enjoyed playing . i tried to get back into my rune priest but i met one person in the game world in 3 days and i got fed up with waiting for scenarios to start . which took about 20 to 30 mins each time . warhammer just does nt feel like an mmo its more like team forttess with a game world tacked onto it these days but at least with team fortress theres not half an hour waits or monthly fees .
do what ddo did change it to a free to play model with an item shop or close down the game because theres no way most people are going to pay to play this .

I wonder how many subscirbers there are in Warhammer, and if they really turn f2p with item shop or they just close this game
(remember Tabula Rasa? It never went f2p they just have closed servers)

Confident, cocky, lazy, dead.
Mostly polish and measures to focus the server population then ...
In Holland we have a saying "Even when a monkey wears a golden ring, it is and will remain an ugly thing."
The reasons why WAR disappointed so many don't have much to do with the problems they have been addressing now, I'm afraid. They are much deeper; repetitive rvr, shallowness in crafting, handholding and restrictions around every corner, a world with an artificial, rather than a natural lay-out and death meaning nothing at all.
You can't fix games with too many deeper issues like that. It has been the exact same for me with AOC and luckily I managed to refrain from touching Aion with a 10 foot pole.
I am playing EVE and Fallen Earth now; much more challenge, freedom and opportunity for your own talents and intelligence to shine.

Gaming should be about fun, not gender equality.
They can improve the game all they want but the game is fundamentally flawed. Fighting over cities that can never really be lost or won will quickly get boring and the only reason to do them is to get drops.
Also the world is tiny and doesnt leave much room for exploration. The game can be best described as shallow. Once you got bored of the PvP in scenarios and done a couple of city sieges there isnt really much reason to stay.

I came back with 4 friends and it was a great choice.
I started doing things other than the RvR when it starts to get repetitive. There are tons of tome unlocks and rewards for unlocking certain ones I've been rolling around doing.
The new LOTD stuff is all pretty cool and in depth.

Had some of the best times in War and will never go back. The game is basically a objective and keep swap. Mythic took out the forts as they could never fix the lag and crash issues. So there went a part of the game that was fun when it worked.
Actively managing the server populations has not and is not happening. The biggest flaw with the game. Tough to play the game when you start winning or for that matter losing and everyone rerolls on the winning side or just rolls on another server. Server poopulations must be managed when you have two factions going at each other.
Another game stopper for me was having to play end game and lower level players get to participate in it. Boggled my mind you have to have certain wards to kill the bosses. Oh wait you have to be level 40 to get them after mindless farming for months. Hit the city only to have players that cannot do squat in the end game instance. Even better is having lvl 20 players roll on level 65 tokens. Great game design.
The world is small and after 6 months of fighting in three zones I could not take it anymore and will not go back. T1 - T3 was a blast T4 was all about who could get off their CC first, your rooted in place while they burn thru 11,500 HP. Stupidest game design I have ever seen. Casters were gods and could walk into a pack of players and basically drop every player there with two healers to back them up. Not to mention they also had all the CC for the most part in the game.
Instead of fixing the glaring issues with the game they introduce 4 new classes, and LOTD. Great time being lvl 40 RR 66 and doing level 25 bosses. The best thing about that zone was watching the lower level players get owned.
The pvp areas are basically deserted areas and could have used some NPC's in it to help with the zergs or hmm to help with anything.
War had its chance and blew it more then any IP I played in years.

I think the reviewer's points are pretty accurate. I too went back over the past couple of weeks to see how WAR has changed. Despite all the things listed I think what is the most disappointing is that population is still unbalanced. Destruction still outnumbers Order handly on all but one server and there its just somewhat equal. I also was disappointed to see that they adopted the WoW melee combat system that allows you to be hit with melee attacks even if they are 10 yards away. The game is definitely improving, but the core problems of population imbalance, class imbalance, and meaningless pvp unfortunately will continue to prevent this game from being anything close to what it should have been.

Thank you John for posting this. It finally got me to spend some time to write abit about my 1 month back at WAR. I play on European servers - that just like in US - are alot fewer than before. That included my server for the main - server that once was highly populated and had a first kill of Altdorf king.
Much like you - I kinda lost intrest in WAR over time based on technical issues and population imbalance. Some things have changed in WAR - but others have not. You mentioned few but since you started after 1.3.2 launched - Its abit harder for you to see it how it was before. I started 2 weeks before patch and I saw the diffrence. Some was good - some not so good. In the last month I played my main (lvl 40 WP and a copy lvl 21 WP) plus few others from start to tier 3. All in all - 5 characters were played on 3 diffrent servers.
Population and faction balance.
This has always been a major factor in WAR. And sadly - after 1.3.2 nothing has changed. The dominating faction is still dominating. And if something - its even worse than ever. It got so bad at 1 point that destro did 3 city invations in less than 24 hours. You can imagine the effect this has on players over long time - including those that are just trying to get into the city to trade and upgrade their character. But this is not all.
What I found out playing on this many servers - is that if one faction is dominating higher tiers - the weaker faction is usually dominating the lower tiers. You might think thats fine and should balance to game - but when you think about it a little more - you realise that the players playing in lower tiers are most likely players that ALREADY have character in higher tiers and are beeing overrun there. Every night that there was a city invation - the lower tiers filled up with the defending faction. You would have thought they would defend. But when defending for 7 days in a row... even 2 times per day... it just gets pointless.
So.. what can be done ? OFC what should have been done right away when it became glarinly obvious that the game was gonna be controled by domination of one faction - instead of actual RVR. You try to create balance - instead of creating unbalance. Giving out extra experience and renown points to one faction does not call for balance. If something it creates more unbalance in the lower tiers - that is ALSO part of the game and is highly effected. It doesn't solve issues to have Order dominating tier 2 and 3 getting destro to roll on another server or just quit when in those tiers. You should Encourage balance - and that is not what Mythic is doing.
So how to create balance in each tier ? One way would be to give the underdogs some rewards - and this is something Mythic is working on. My fear is that the underdog system is going to effect only highest tier. Meaning that the journey through the earlier tiers becomes pointless and totally diffrent. It also calls out for alot of "nubs" showing up in tier 4 - not knowing how to play RVR and giving up when on the loosing site for the 10th time in one week.
I would like to see Mythic use Influence and Renown to control the game flow alot more. Not only in diffrent tiers - but even in diffrent maps. That way they can create controlled flow of balanced content. For example. If one faction is beeing dominated 5 against 1 in tier 3 (like is happening alot) then the underdogs should get alot more renown points and influence rewards for fighting back. Overall they should get the same amount of Renown and Influence as the 5 times bigger number of the other faction. It sounds like alot.... but then.... this also calls out for balance - meaning that the underdogs will be played more than before and bringing more fun to the entire tier.
Alot of talk about balance - but then it is the most important part about RVR game like WAR. Its the biggest issue the game has and it has to be tackled.
Other things that you did not mention here is the Action point changes that seems to be kind of a hidden part of the patch. Basicly Mythic changed the game back to the action point system - where every class is restricted to using talents based on action points. This means that players can no longer spam spells - cause ususally you run out of AP after hiting 2-4 buttons, depending on the cost of the spell. Before 1.3.2 this action point system had been deactivated - imo beccause it slowes the gameplay down alot. But acording to Mythic it was a bug. I dont buy it tho.
I could go on and on. But I will stop here. My last comments will be around the quality control at Mythic. Or in this case - the lack of it. It is just not acceptable to see some of the issues that this patch brought up. Coming from WOW I simply can't understand how a gaming developer like Mythic can still be in buisness with such glaring issues that I noticed. Since I played chosen it ofc became very obvious because the entire Aura system was buggy and it took week to fix it. Another one was that an entire scenario froze when players dropped flags at dropping points. BUt the most shocking one that I noticed (maybe it was also there before) is that my white lion pet actually runs through the sky with me when I fly off to diffrent maps.... I mean... where is the quality control ?
Finally - about starting guild and advice. Both of these will probably be removed cause they are defently not doing what the devs wanted to see.
And the very very last. You totally forgot to talk about the apprenticheship system. Something that I consider to be a good sign of how way off the developers are in the actual issues this game has. The only effect that I have seen of this system tho - is when a player turned into chicken in PQ cause one of the ppl joining was flagged for RVR. And since the chicken was more than 100 feets from the other person he was playing with.. well - he gave up and flew off in chicken form....
I dont know if that system is actually implemented tho. I hope they drop it cause it is the last thing that the game needs. Having chickens running around because the go 100 feet away from the other player in RVR is something this game can defently do without. And in terms of balancing... adding higher lvl characters into lower tiers with some restricion on spells and lvls... OMG.. why not first start fixing the big balance issues....
Personally -Im right now waiting for my Dragon Age copy and I will not sub for WAR again any time soon. That doesnt mean I wont be playing it tho. I regularly create a new trial account and play out one class for 10 days - just to enjoy the best part of the game - and the most rewarding one. TIER 1 !!! And heck - who cares if it runs out in 10 days. I will stop playing the game one day -even when I have 50 rank 40 and RP 80. Knowing that it has time limit actually makes it more fun for me. Cause even devloping a player 10 lvls can still be rewarding - while developing 40 can be a nightmare. And... if you get bored of the trial account character.. you just log off and dont play it again. No obligation. And this is why WAR should be free to play... It simply isn't worth long term sub for me.
Cheers - Off to play Dragon Age.

One post here to point out that almost all posters have mention one issue. Issue that Mythic has not done anything about - even tho everyone knows it.
Population balance - faction balance.
Why is this game now down to couple of servers in US and EU? Cause the biggest issue of it all was not fixed.

One thing that I didn't see mentioned was the aprentice system, which is one of the most useful parts of this patch. now if you have alts or new friends you want to play with and even level up a little bit more you can take them into the warband and temp boost their level to something within the other player's range.

It's election season, so it seems especially appropriate to recall the words of one of the most quotable politicians of the modern era, Ronald Reagan. As I read Patrick Michaels' "Notwithstanding GM's Protests, No One Wants The Chevy Volt", I couldn't help but hear the voice of the late president saying, "There you go again." After the flap over the bogus claim that Chevy is losing $50,000 per Volt, we now have the perhaps more bogus claim: No one wants the Volt at all, even though it is coming off its best sales month ever!
It turns out that Michaels is not only wrong, he's fairly spectacularly wrong. The Volt is the 133rd most popular car sold in the U.S. out of 262 total through the first 8 months of 2012, according to Timothy Cain at Good Car, Bad Car. In other words, it's the "median car" — half are more popular, half are less popular. Given that it's an entirely new kind of vehicle, expensive and demonized by people with an often strange political agenda, that's fairly remarkable.
What's perhaps more remarkable is how closely sales of the Volt to date track the sales of the original Toyota Prius here in the U.S. GM sold 7,671 Volts here last year, while Toyota sold 5,562 Priuses in 2000 and 15,556 in 2001. If the rest of 2012 holds similar to the first 8 months, U.S. Volt sales will increase from the 13,497 to date up towards very approximately 20,000. Oh, and that Prius, barely a blip back in 2000? It's now the 14th most popular car in the U.S. What's that expression about oaks and acorns?
Against what is shaping up to be a very economically robust 15 million new auto sales in the U.S., ("Are you better off than you were four years ago?"; it seems the answer is increasingly yes, even though the long-term unemployed and those still underwater on their homes are still obviously in the no category) that's still a drop in the bucket. But it's a detectable, noticeable drop in said bucket.
And clearly, whatever fear of the Volt that runs rampant among some segment of climate-change deniers, government-bailout haters and whomever else fears the progress of this type of vehicle gets ramped up to new levels whenever anything resembling good news about the Volt emerges.
