Snow as you know, is not good for the go
Now I know that not everyone likes snow, but you have to admit this glaze of white we have over everything after Saturday's snow storm sure looks a lot better than the brown we have been seeing for months now.
Saturday morning my wife and I were leaving home to run a few errands when it started to come down. We did a some things in town and then sat down to a breakfast and watched the traffic on Main Street slide by down the hill at 800 East while we were drinking our coffee. It was amazing to see people driving just as fast as they always do until they did a little slip slide and then suddenly it was slow as you go.
Driving home after breakfast was quite a trick. I had forgotten about how slick roads can be. All my vehicles except one are four wheel or all wheel drive and I was in the only one that was just rear wheel drive.
I remember when that's all I drove. I never had a front wheel or four wheel drive vehicle until I was 32 years old. I remember putting bags of salt in the trunk of my car and five gallon buckets (with lids) in the backs of my pick up trucks just to be sure I had enough traction to get started at a light on a small hill in the days before I owned four wheel drive.
I do remember the first time I ever drove in the snow on a public road. Of all places it was the first day of drivers ed driving training. My birthday being in January brought me a driving for my permit training date on Jan. 16, 1968 and it had snowed the day before. Back in those ancient times, school districts often inherited cars from the city fleet that were no longer being used and put them into service as drivers education cars. In my case it was an old Murray Police Department cruiser; a 1963 Dodge Polara with an automatic and a 426 Hemi in it. A police intercepter version at that.
Power wise it was a car that every teenager at the time would have adored. It was an ugly car as far as I was concerned, but it did have many horses under that hood.
We drove with three sophomores and the instructor, Mr. Geddes, who was also my cross country track coach. That first time out was on a Saturday morning, and it had snowed all day on Friday. The streets had been fairly cleared, but as we got in the car all I could think of was that I was with two female students who had never touched a car before and the streets were coated with ice. All the horror stories about drivers education cars getting creamed at some railroad crossing because a student didn't know the difference between the brake and the accelerator came to mind.
Mr. Geddes picked one of the girls to drive first. She came out of the gates of Murray High onto 5300 South like she was at Daytona. We screeched around the first corner and flew across State Street. I am not even sure we touched the ground as we crossed under the traffic light at the intersection we were going so fast.
All the time Mr. Geddes was saying very calmly "Now slow down, you don't need to go that fast." Finally he got her under control and the rest of the drive she actually did very well. Then he turned to the other girl.
She was so timid driving that he could get her to take off at a light until he invoked his controls on the passenger side of the car. After about five miles on surface streets and a stint on the freeway for a few minutes she started to get the hang of it.
By this time traffic had begun to increase. We were driving along somewhere in the Cottonwood area when he told her to pull over.
"It's your turn Shaw," he said to me leaning over the seat and grinning.
I put on the new dorky glasses my mother had just bought me a couple of days before (my old ones had been lost because I never wore them; I just sat close to the board in class to see) and put the car in drive.
"Buckle up your seat belt," Geddes said to me with a look. Hell we never used seat belts in the truck I drove on the farm and our tractors didn't have any. The ones in my dad's car, I had never driven, but had ridden in many times had them, but they had slipped under the seat from lack of use. I buckled up.
I put it in drive again and stepped on it. We were on the side of the road and the car slid sideways into a ditch not only because of the snow, but because I wanted to go and that hemi was going to get me there.
Mr. Geddes got out and looked at the wheel in the ditch. The car high centered on the bank. He just shook his head. Just then a Salt Lake County Sheriff's car pulled up behind us. He went back to confer with the deputy. The two girls in the back seat were laughing at what I had done.
The officer came up to my window. I rolled it down.
"Why don't you get out and I will try and get it out of there," he said.
I got out, dorky glasses and all, and stood in back of the car with Mr. Geddes as the deputy tried to get it out of the ditch. He rocked it and rocked it. At one point that 426 shot gravel and ice on both of us and it also splattered all over his cruiser. Finally he got out and admitted it was in too deep. He called for a tow truck.
Mr. Geddes looked at me.
"Good thing you're a better runner than you are a driver," he said referring to my cross country experience the fall before. He did smile though. Personally I would has slapped me.
The tow truck came and pulled us out onto dry pavement while the deputy blocked traffic. Mr. Geddes got in the driver's seat and told me to sit in the front passenger side and "to not touch any of the controls."
We drove back to the school parking lot. The girls chattered all the way and I felt really stupid. Getting stuck cost us a lot of time and both the girls parents were waiting to pick them up when we got back. I was on foot.
The next week I got to drive on dry roads. This time Mr. Geddes took the Dodge Dart that had been handed down to drivers ed from the water department. It was a six cylinder car that took from dawn to dusk to get to 60 miles per hour.
And he used that car for the rest of my driving training.
Luckily, there was never any more snow at or around the days I drove with him. I ended up with an A in the class despite me putting us in a ditch.
But he did remind me right up through graduation day about the time we got stuck. It became a joke between the two of us.
As for the girls, they never told anyone about it as far as I know. I can't even remember who they were now, but thanks to them where ever they are.
Of course now the whole world knows. It's okay though. When you get to my age, almost everything you did as a kid is funny.
And less embarrassing than some of the things you do now.

Docking stations are a great way to manage devices power needs while allowing to keep an easily cluttered work station neat. So, when Henge Docks announced that they had a new desktop charger for the MacBook Pro whose users were excited to integrate the docking station into their collection of accessories.
Now, Henge Docks has uncloaked a docking station model for the MacBook Air earlier last week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and even more Mac lovers can add this sleek accessory to their homes as well. The prototype models were on the show floor at CES and had some pros and cons, but for an easily affordable $50 per docking station, these will doubtless be a popular option. Enhance your mobility and turn your device into a power tool! Discover select accessories such as; stylus & pens, micro SD memory cards, batteries, docking stations, Bluetooth headsets, data cables and glider gloves all specifically designed to make your devices functionally efficient and performance rich.
Aesthetically, the white, plastic exterior may not suit the tastes of all potential buyers. But, that is always the case and more pointedly so in an industry with so many manufacturers and competition. This device is quite straightforward and has garnered some criticism and praise on the online forums. However, based on reviews of attendees of CES, the docking station as seen in action and in person is more substantive and sturdy than expected. This is thanks to the rubber padding that snuggly holds and hugs the docked laptop, offering more security to the device than its plastic exterior suggests.
Potential consumers should note that this peripheral accessory makes the USB port (the one located on the laptop's docked end) usable on its backside. Alas, the Thunderbolt socket has only display functionality when the MacBook is docked. When faced with these inquiries, Henge Dock was quick to assure attendees that a resolution is in the works to ensure that the Intel potential is not stymied. Discover an extensive selection of the latest lithium technology replacement cell phone and wireless devices batteries. Ensure your device is powered by brand name batteries for longer operating life
As with any beta or prototype, the feedback from both the CES show floor and the online forums are bound to help perfect and shape the peripheral device into the best desktop docking station for the money.

Next month, all you'll need is your smartphone equipped with the Square Wallet app to buy your latte at Starbucks. In November, Starbucks' customers will be able to use the Square mobile payment system in about 7,000 U.S. stores.
Starbucks and Square formed a big partnership last August. Starbucks invested $25 million in Square. The deal allows Square to process credit and debit card transactions and implement the Pay with Square system at Starbucks stores.
To use Pay with Square you link a credit card to the app. When you're paying at the counter, leave your wallet in your pocket. Through the app the store can sense your phone's location and charges your account for the amount of your purchase. The cashier verifies your identity through a picture ID and name that pops up on their screen.
Apple users aren't being left out. The latest update to the Starbucks iOS app lets Starbucks card owners add their accounts to Apple's Passbook directly through the app. Then you can pay for food and beverages, check your card balances, reload the card with more cash, and add rewards to score free drinks, all through your iPhone.
Unveiled in iOS 6, Passbook lets users store electronic copies of tickets, coupons, boarding passes, and loyalty cards.
Starbucks first launched a Square-powered mobile payment app in 2011. Since then, Starbucks has processed more than 70 million mobile transactions.

Whether you like reading this or not the reality remains the same, the New York Rangers are in a 0-3 hole to the Los Angeles Kings thanks in large part to their own play. For game 3 there can't be any complaints about the officiating as they were more favored towards the Rangers.
No the sad reality is the Rangers didn't get the job done and have themselves to blame for it. Goals that went in for the Kings off Ranger players, the inability to get anything past King's goalie Jonathan Quick (who was pretty good not to take anything away from him) no matter what kind of shot or situation.
The Rangers had plenty of chances to score but they just couldn't finish plays and going 0 for 6 on the power play was a huge reason why they are in this hole. There were players who were working hard like Mats Zuccarello along with his linemates Derek Brassard and Benoit Pouliot and even Rick Nash.
But at the end of the day the Rangers did themselves in as their shot blocking was a cause of their problems like Dan Girardi's skate deflecting Jeff Carter's shot just enough to beat Henrik Lundqvist with 0.7 seconds left in the first period. The Rangers to nobody's surprise had failed to score on a power play and maybe were already mentally heading to the locker room as the clock was winding down.
Give Jeff Carter a ton of credit for keeping on going and playing until the buzzer as that really summed up the biggest difference between the 2 teams. Forget that the Rangers would hold the Kings to 10 shots over the 2nd and 3rd periods as the Kings would score off a shot that may have hit Marty St. Louis for their 2nd goal.
The Kings 3rd goal was an attempted pass that hit Ryan McDonagh and bounced right back to Mike Richards who promptly put it past Lundqvist for a 3-0 lead. The Kings beat the Rangers mentally all night long and maybe a strong case can be made for the Rangers finally running out of gas after playing 3 emotionally charged series.
It is a fair question to ask and at the same time, there will be no shame in losing this series as nobody in their right mind could have seen the Rangers in the Stanley Cup finals this season. But they got here and trust me from experience in watching them lose 2 other finals that as a fan, it will hurt whether it is 4 games or 7 games.
Game 4 will be a test of character for the Rangers as they either throw everything they have left at the Kings or they raise the white flag and surrender. The fans (some of them at least) still believe but do the Rangers?

The Watertown Salvation Army is expanding programs to offer more free support services to clients and community members, effective Monday.
Lts. Zeb and Summer Hough said the move merely builds on the established foundation left by Capt. Evelyn M. Hopping, who left her Watertown post in June for Oneonta.
We see a need in the population we serve, Lt. Zeb Hough said. They want more, and they want to know how to do more.
The Watertown agency has more than 200 daily clients of all ages.
People who sign up for the agencys voucher program, which helps clients obtain shoes, clothing and other personal items, now will have to complete an intake process.
Lt. Zeb Hough said an intake coordinator will collect client information, find out what people are at the agency for, and identify services they may qualify for through agency referrals.
The voucher program will be part of a six-month process to work with clients on how to make their lives more stable.
Changes also will occur with the soup kitchen, where a recreation component will be added two days a week to let visitors participate in leisure activities. The soup kitchen now is open from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday to Saturday.
With the recreation room, they could free up tables for people to eat, then come back later for seconds, Lt. Zeb Hough said. Were just adding structure to it.
Changes that most excite Lt. Summer Hough are youth program improvements. With the existing Supper Club, skill-building, recreation and a meal are offered each Thursday for children up to age 12. That soon will transform into Kids Club, to accommodate more children of various ages.
So many kids turned 13, and there was no place for them to go, Lt. Summer Hough said. We wanted to keep them.
On Tuesdays, the agency will host a childrens art night, with theater arts, visual arts and dance tracks. People interested in having their children attend should call the agency at 782-4470 to preregister each week.
Thursdays will remain Supper Club night, and Fridays will become Teen Night.
Lt. Zeb Hough said the Teen Night will involve a leadership program to help teenagers learn employment and financial management skills.
We wanted to sit back for a while to see how things played out, Lt. Summer Hough said.
One of the reasons Tuesday is so important to me is Im an artist. Growing up we were poor, but one generous family each year would give me a sketch pad. It was a staple for me, and I kind of want to get that to kids.
The Watertown Salvation Army also will continue to educate its clients through a seminar series, offering pointers on parenting and how to cook, manage money and save energy, among other topics.
The first seminar will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Monday at the agency, 723 State St., where Maggies on the River General Manager Bernie Bernhardt will teach people how to make healthy and inexpensive meals.
Each program will be reviewed quarterly, with adjustments made accordingly.
The program overhaul was jump-started with a $4,000 grant the Salvation Army received from Stewarts Holiday Match program.
Proceeds from the Watertown Salvation Armys upcoming all-you-can-eat pancake and French toast breakfast, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 7 at the agency, will go toward program development.

By TOM MCCOURTSun Advocate Columnist
"Holy cow," I exclaimed. "Whodathunk? Bob Bennett never even made it to the primary election. After serving 17 years as Utah's junior senator, he was dumped on his head at the Republican convention. Some people say he was the first casualty of a massive anti-incumbent sentiment sweeping the country."
"It's not an anti-incumbent sentiment," Uncle Spud corrected. "It's an anti-anti-American sentiment. Americans are fed up and they are taking their country back."
"Taking the country back from Bob Bennett?"
"That's right," he said. "Bennett is one of those politicians with two faces and two political agendas. Here in Utah, before the hometown crowd, he pretends to be a conservative. Back across the Potomac, in the land of liberalism, he votes with the 'moderates,' often doing a 90, or even a 180-degree turn from the way he talks to his constituents. We can't trust a guy like that."
"But that's not anti-American," I said.
"Sure it is," Spud insisted. "We have a representative form of government. The people we elect are supposed to represent us. When guys like Bennett vote against the will of the people and against constitutional principles, they are ruining our country. They hurt us: politically, socially, fiscally, and economically. They vote for insanity: trillion dollar bailouts, trillion dollar deficits, open borders, amnesty for illegal aliens, millions of acres of manufactured wilderness, 40 years of dependency on foreign oil, the welfare state, socialized medicine and socialized government. That's not the America our constitution guarantees."
"Some say the constitution is just a guideline," I reminded him. "We are told it is a 'living document' that should be modified, adapted, or creatively interpreted to fit the modern world."
"The constitution is the supreme law of the land," Spud insisted. "Constitutional guarantees are not negotiable. Without that document we are at the mercy of politicians, law enforcement, magistrates, tycoons, tyrants and world government. Those who want to 'modify' the constitution, or ignore it, are a greater threat to this republic than any foreign enemy, in my humble opinion."
"So how will dumping a guy like Bennett help things out?"
"Bennett's demise is the beginning of a general house cleaning. Bennett is only the first. A recent survey shows that 51 percent of Utahns would not support Orrin Hatch if he were running this year. I don't think he stands a chance of reelection in 2012."
"Hatch is a Utah institution," I exclaimed. "He's been in the Senate since 1977."
"Yes, and as Utah's senior senator, he has presided over this mess as it has gotten progressively worse over the years. At best he is ineffective. At worse he is incompetent. I vote we give someone else a try. But of course, that's only one man's opinion. I'm sure senator Hatch would disagree."
"And then," he continued, "Most people missed the most significant thing that happened at the Utah Republican convention. Mitt Romney was booed when he introduced Bob Bennett and asked the delegates to vote for Bennett. Mitt Romney booed by Utah Republicans is like Sierra Club members throwing rotten vegetables at Al Gore. Who could have predicted it? Romney thought he had Utah in his pocket. Maybe not.
"Aspiring presidential contenders like Romney had better wake up. Conservatives have had enough of milquetoast representatives like Bob Bennett and John McCain, whom Romney is also actively supporting. If Romney expects to win the Republican nomination in 2012 he had better get off the tracks and get on the train. Or, like Bennett, he might get run over. This time we want real change we can believe in, not the crap that's been happening for the past 40 years."

Water as Therapy in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD)

- How to Read a Study Record
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common single gene disorder that is potentially fatal. ADPKD is caused by mutations in either of two genes (PKD1, PKD2). Cysts begin to develop primarily in renal collecting tubules in utero and continue to form and expand throughout the patient's life. One of the goals of the study is to formulate a water prescription for use in clinical trials to determine the effect of sustained water diuresis on the progression of ADPKD.

Water prescription
Other: Water prescription
Water prescription in 12 to 16 equally divided doses
Detailed Description:
The proposed study will devise a quantitative model to estimate the amount of water an individual would need to ingest in order to lower the 24 h mean urine osmolality to a level below plasma (~285 mOsm/Kg). This osmolality goal is chosen because the 24h median urine osmolality of humans is ordinarily ~753 mOsm/Kg, much greater than 285 mosm/Kg (6, 7). In other words, normal humans are usually anti-diuretic during waking hours and while asleep. Median 24h urine volume is ~1225 ml (range 1051 - 2270). In temperate climates the insensible losses of water in sweat, respiration and stool are nearly balanced by the water ingested in solid and semi-solid foods and derived from metabolism. Thus, daily urine volume measured upon arising in the morning is a reasonably good indicator of the volume of fluids drunk over the preceding 24 h.

Read: Is The NHL Really Willing To Cancel The Season?
At Yahoo, Nick Cotsonika writes that the NHL's move to cancel games through January 14th has created a "soft" deadline for when the season needs to be saved.
Setting a hard deadline of January 15th would leave the NHL with little room for flexibility if Donald Fehr thought that the deadline was artificial and they would have to then follow through with cancelling the season.
He says that the NHL isn't likely to go through the same process they did in 1995 when they had a deal in principle, started the season, but didn't finalize the deal until later on when it didn't turn out exactly like the NHL wanted it to.
Now, even after a deal is agreed upon in principle, there will need to be a week to draft documents and papers that have the precise language that will go into the CBA.
Adam Rotter: I have to think that the NHL, or at least Gary Bettman and the hard line owners, are serious about cancelling the season if a deal doesn't get done.They may even take extra joy in doing so if the NHLPA thinks that it is only an artificial deadline and talks would continue after. The owners want to do what they can to hurt Donald Fehr and the PA, instead of doing the right thing which would be to embrace them as partners in a big effort to grow the game, and they may make another drastic move to get what they want.

Most designers of t-shirts would tell you that their products are meant to cover people's torsos. That is, in fact, what a t-shirt does. But Daniel wanted to take t-shirts beyond their utilitarian function. He still makes t-shirts for torsos, yes, but he also makes them for the mind. He wants to fill minds with positive thinking by way of screen print tee. To him, t-shirts aren't just for your bod. In fact, when it comes to his products, he prefers the term "mental goods." And who couldn't use some more mental good?

As the Air Force continues a fiscal 2012 civilian workforce restructure through voluntary retirement and separation initiatives, officials have instituted new flexibilities to help minimize the impact of downsizing and workforce shaping.
Unlike the previous two rounds, the third round of Voluntary Early Retirement Authority and Voluntary Separation Incentive Pay will allow civilians to fill VSIP-created vacancies at other Air Force installations provided the losing base can show it saved an employee from involuntary separation. This will allow an exception to DOD Priority Placement Program clearance procedures.
These flexibilities will be used during the third round of VERA/VSIP, which begins May 1, and will help give civilians the opportunity for continued employment. Officials said the flexibilities will be used to the maximum extent allowed.
"We're committed to sustaining excellence, meeting fiscal requirements and minimizing negative impacts on our current permanent civilian workforce and their families," said Michelle LoweSolis, the Air Force Personnel Center's civilian force integration director. "These flexibilities will give us an even greater ability to rebalance the skills of our workforce into enduring positions at various installations."
The survey window for the next VERA/VSIP opportunity will open during the first week of May. Applications will be due during the week of May 14 or an earlier date established by local authorities. If approved, applicants will retire or separate by Aug. 31.
"The goal is to have all civilian employees realigned to continuing positions by Sept. 30," said Lisa Cevallos, a human resources specialist at AFPC. "We encourage managers to consider restructuring any vacant positions they have for the placement of affected employees. They should also work with their CPSs on additional flexible processes to help place employees."
Employees should review all available information on the programs at the Air Force Personnel Services website and word search "VERA" and "VSIP." For annuity estimates, employees should go to the AFPC Benefits and Entitlements Service Team automated website, called EBIS, to access the retirement calculator.
After gathering information through AFPERS and EBIS, employees should contact their local civilian personnel section to discuss their individual situation and what steps to take if they are offered VERA and/or VSIP.

Personalized Trick or Treat Bag Tutorial
I decided I needed some creative time yesterday, so I sat down while the girls were napping and made a Trick or Treat bag with some Halloween fabric I found in Wal-Mart's fabric department. I had looked in JoAnn's, but they were pretty picked over, and I fell in love with the candy corn fabric I found at Wally World.

Oh, that is cute. I have some halloween fabric that I didn't use, so I think I will make bags for nieces and nephews. My 2 kids are teenagers, so its uncool to trick-or-treat. Funny though how eating candy isn't uncool.
Thanks for the easy steps.

What a cute idea! Good for you thinking of making your own treat bag and for making it without a pattern. Sewing without a pattern is a lot harder than with having a set of directions to follow. I can't wait to see a picture of the girls in their costumes carrying their bags.

CARTHAGE A Carthage Area Chamber of Commerce board member has proposed allowing young people to sell handmade items at the Carthage Farmers Market.
Mea M. Rosner told the chamber board that a friend of her sons had given gifts of braided key chains and bracelets that he had considered selling on the Internet.
Two weeks later I saw similar key chains in an airport kiosk on our way to Pensacola, Fla., Mrs. Rosner said. I thought, Wow, that kid is pretty insightful to not only make these things, but also know that they were selling currently in the public interest.
She had a similar experience with her daughter and her friend who makes scented soaps and wanted to sell them at school.
With the blessings of the chamber board, Mrs. Rosner solicited the aid of Carthage Central School District Superintendent Peter J. Turner to reach out to schoolchildren. Mr. Turner encouraged the school principals to suggest to interested students that they contact Mrs. Rosner for inclusion in the proposed project.
The idea is to allow young people to sell items they have made at a chamber-run booth at the farmers market. The farmers market would give young entrepreneurs exposure to marketing their wares and provide interaction with customers. Different young business owners would be featured each week, possibly on a rotation.
At this point, the project is in the conceptional stage and may not be implemented until next year.
For more information, contact Mrs. Rosner at email@example.com.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Victory x 2. After succeeding in the giant slalom, ATOMIC-Star Marcel Hirscher also wins the slalom in Bansko. This marks his eight victory of the season, the fourth slalom victory on the ATOMIC RACE 165 SL. Hirscher takes the maximum of 200 World Cup points from Bulgaria, leading the Giant Slalom World Cup and ranking second in the Slalom- and overall World Cup. The race for points once again will be on at Tuesday's parallel-event in Moscow.
"I love my job", Marcel Hirscher cheers in the sunny finish-area of Bansko, "skiing in such weather is great fun. It was an extremely cool race, I am delighted, I am enjoying each turn". On his ATOMIC RACE 165 SL, prepared by ski tech luminary Edi Unterberger, Marcel Hirscher carved the top time in the first heat and the third best in the second heat - his fourth victory in the ninth slalom of the season. The 22 years old star from Salzburg is currently missing 35 points for the first place in the discipline ranking. 200 points for the race to catch up in the Overall World Cup In the overall World Cup ranking the ATOMIC racer advances from place 3 to 2 – only missing 18 points for place 1. "It is beautiful that the chance for the overall World Cup is alive. Now more than ever. But I don't have great expectations. The biggest challenge for me will be to ski a fast turn", Marcel Hirscher replies. He leaves it open if he will compete in the Super-G in Crans Montana. "Presently I am feeling every single bone, the exertions are heavy. Moscow is coming up right now. I will decide at short notice."

Comments about Dean John Entwistle Hybrid Electric Bass Guitar:
First off, I've always wanted a "FenderBird". I am impressed at the overall build quality, and this thing is versatile in the tonal options available.I got the Trans Brazillia and this finish is beautiful. It weighs a LOT less than my Thunderbird, and has little if any neck dive. The set up out of the box was pretty good, it was actually intonated, and fairly well in tune out of the box. I didn't care for the stock strings and promptly put a set of my liking on, and let me tell you. It plays like butter.
Best Uses
Comments about Dean John Entwistle Hybrid Electric Bass Guitar:
This is great guitar for its inexpensive price. I was blown away by its impressively wide range of tone. It's comfortable, light and has a very smooth action. It was also equipped with EMG pickups and D'Addario strings, so there was no real need for any hardware upgrades from the factory standard. There is a balance/neck-dive issue, but that should be obvious to anyone by its design before purchase, so that could not be considered a fair criticism, simply something the user should be prepared to rock with. It's very suitable for most popular genres, particularly rock and metal. Especially metal. I would definitely suggest this for an intense, lengthy trip to Mount Thrashmore. I'll be using it onstage for years to come and slaughtering crowds by the thousands with its heavy thrash action.

HAMDEN, Conn. Its been a dream trip so far for the Clarkson University womens hockey team, which is playing in the Frozen Four for the first time.
The team had a nice send-off in Potsdam, with about 75 fans cheering them on as they left campus with a police escort. Then the Golden Knights won their semifinal game 5-1 over Mercyhurst Friday night, and on Saturday morning senior Jamie Lee Rattray became the first player from either Clarkson or St. Lawrence University to win the Patty Kazmaier Award.
For the trip to stay a dream Clarkson (30-5-5 overall) will have to think big as it faces two-time defending national champion Minnesota (38-1-1) at 3 p.m. today at Quinnipiac University for the national championship.
How big a test are the Golden Gophers?
In the last 89 games Minnesota is 87-1-1, a .983 win percentage. The Golden Gophers average nearly five goals a game (4.78) and allow just 1.10. Minnesota is so good that it lost leading scorer Amanda Kessel (46 goals-55 assists last season) for the entire year to the Olympics, yet still is 38-1-1.
The only film we really have (on Clarkson) is from last night, Minnesota coach Brad Frost said. They are very similar to our team. They have three lines that can play and they are really deep. Their first line is really what makes them go. They have some big strong defensemen and a goaltender who is good as well.
As if the Golden Gophers credentials arent good enough, Minnesota comes from the Western College Hockey Association, which happens to have won the national title in every Frozen Four. The Golden Gophers have four titles. Minnesota-Duluth has won five and Wisconsin has won four.
Our teams are always so prepared because of the schedule that we play, Frost said. Playing our league teams four times and often times five or six times prepares you and makes it difficult. Our seventh place team split with Mercyhurst when they played them. Its a battle, its a grind every weekend. I think our players understand the magnitude of every game and showing up for every game.
One thing Clarkson will have to do to have success against Minnesota is play with a lead. Scoring first doesnt guarantee success against the Golden Gophers, but when a team lets Minnesota score first its all but over. In the last two seasons Minnesota is 64-0 if it scores the first goal of a game. If Minnesota leads after one period over the last two seasons it has a 36-0 record.
Clarksons seniors opened their careers against the Golden Gophers on Oct. 1-2, 2010 at Cheel Arena. Minnesota swept the nonconference series 5-0 and 3-0 and the teams have not met since. To begin my career against Minnesota, and to be here in the national championship and play against them my last game, is pretty special, Rattray said. It shows how far the program has come. Im really excited. I think its going to be a great game.
Clarkson goalie Erica Howe was not the starter in 2010-11, but she saw her first playing time in the third period of that opening game and stopped nine of 10 shots. Starting with Minnesota and ending with Minnesota, thats kind of a cool thing that not everyone gets to do, and we kind of get to measure how far weve come, Howe said. Said Clarksons Brittany Styner, I think we are pretty excited to see how far weve come. We want to see that weve made a difference in the program. We know that they are a very skilled and talented team thats going to bring their best every day. We need to come out with our best as well.
Minnesotas lineup features three players with 20 or more goals and two others who are at 19. The top player is sophomore Hannah Brandt, who has 23 goals and 42 assists. Rachel Bona (22 goals-37 assists) and Kelly Terry (22-30) are two other top threats. Freshman forward Dani Cameranesi has 19 goals, including eight on the power play.
Clarkson will look to just do what its been doing for most of the season and see if it can add one more big trophy to bring back on the ride home, along with Rattrays Patty Kazmaier Award.
Weve done a lot of great things this season, so theres no reason not to go out there and give it everything weve got to try and bring home another first for the program, Clarkson co-coach Matt Desrosiers said. Theres been a lot thats gone on the last few weeks and the last couple days. Its a lot of stuff happening for our program in a short amount of time. I kind of view it as a good thing that it hasnt sunk in yet and were not reading too much into it. Were going into (todays) game with an open mind. Weve never been too high and weve never been too low, and thats what you want out of your team, especially going into a weekend like this. They are confident in their abilities, as well.

text: The Utah Farm Bureau and FFA hosted third graders from all the schools in the county on Wednesday March 25, as Bethany Truman and Malyn Brady helped the kids understand the complexities of farming. Half of the third graders attended the event in the morning and the other half went in the afternoon. The kids were given lessons on the importance of beef and pork. A lesson about where all the ingredients on a pizza come from and how long it takes them to be produced was followed up with a slice of pizza for all. The students saw a sheep seared and had a lesson on hand washing as well. They were introduced to a pair of horses and a pair of pigs and got to see green eggs. The students rotated through the various displays and lessons in the county fairgrounds complex while enjoying a break from traditional lessons.

I have only ever seen Le Tallec ceramic eggs sold at auction. They are very ornate and quite beautiful and sell for £2-400 each. Sorry I cant help on the dinner service but its nice to know you have an undoubtedly quality item. Your best bet might be approaching one of the larger quality auction houses if you intend to sell it.

We've all done it at one point or another: throwing away food because we forgot about it and it went bad, or because we bought too much and now it's past its shelf life.
In fact, 40% of food in the United States is never eaten and $4 billion is wasted each year globally. Did you know the average American throws away well over 200 pounds of edible food each year? If we wasted just 15% less food, it would be enough to feed 25 million Americans annually. This Thanksgiving may be a good time to consider how many impoverished people could be fed with that food.
Once you get through the shocking facts in the infographic, provided by A to Z Solutions, learn about 8 opportunities to help reduce waste. We think there may be a few good business plans that can be brainstormed to address the crisis, and we hope agree it's some interesting food for thought.

|About the CPA Press
The lectures in this volume are part of a series of classes transcribed and edited for publication by the CPA Press. Although some material has been altered, for purposes of clarity or the protection of the privacy of students who offered personal information during the seminars, the transcriptions are meant to faithfully reproduce not only the astrological and psychological material discussed in the classes, but also the atmosphere of the group setting.
Since the CPA's inception, many people, including astrology students living abroad, have repeatedly requested transcriptions of the seminars. In the autumn of 1995, Liz Greene, Charles Harvey and Juliet Sharman-Burke decided to launch the CPA Press, in order to make available to the astrological community material which would otherwise be limited solely to seminar participants, and might never be included by the individual tutors in their own future written works. Because of the structure of the CPA programme, most seminars are "one-off" presentations which are not likely to be repeated, and much careful research and important astrological investigation would otherwise be lost. The volumes in the CPA Seminar Series are meant for serious astrological students who wish to develop a greater knowledge of the links between astrology and psychology, in order to understand both the horoscope and the human being at a deeper and more insightful level.
The hardback volumes in the series are not available in most bookshops, but can be ordered directly from the CPA or purchased from Midheaven Bookshop, 396 Caledonian Road, London N1, Tel. +44 20 7607 4133, Fax +44 20 7700 6717, www.midheavenbooks.com.

This study evaluates outreach to HIV-infected people living in unstable housing in New York City who are new to CitiWide Harm Reduction. One hundred and fifty people are interviewed every 6 months, and their medical records are reviewed every 6 months for a total of 18 months. The study examines how outreach, case management, housing, drug use, mental health, and quality of life are related to people's ability to get into and stay in medical care.

ROCHESTER, N.Y.- Randolph held on late to squeak by Tioga 7-6 in a Class D Semifinal at Sahlen's Stadium in Rochester.
The Cardinals scored on the opening possession when quarterback #9 Mitch Maycock connected with #10 Nathan Beaver on a 16-yard touchdown pass on fourth and four to put Randolph up 7-0 with 9:28 left in the first quarter.
That would be the only touchdown of the game for Randolph but it's all they would need.
Tioga scored a touchdown with 6:00 left in the fourth quarter when #42 Tyler Spires took it in from 35 yards out. Instead of kicking the extra point, the Tigers decided to go for two.
Tioga tried to give it to Spires again but this time the Randolph defense was ready for it and stopped him short of the goal-line. The Tigers then made the decision to try an onside kick but that was recovered by Randolph. The Cardinals maintained possession for the rest of the game.
The game was won on the defensive side of the ball for the Cardinals as they came up big when it mattered. Tioga failed to convert on a third down all game, going 0 for 8. The Tigers also went 0 for 4 on fourth down conversions.
In what could have been a game changer early in the second quarter #7 Jesse Manuel took a handoff from the Tioga seven-yard line and appeared to be gone until #20 Jordan Dowiasz caught up from behind and made the touchdown saving tackle for the Cardinals at the Randolph 30-yard line. Tioga would go on to turn it over on downs.
Dowiasz was a big part of the offensive side of the ball as well rushing for 101 yards on 28 carries.
Tioga did have two 100-yard rushers on the day as Manuel ran for 109 yards on nine touches and Spires ran for 105 yards on 20 carries, including his touchdown.
Maycock finished the day 3-6 passing for 70 yards including a touchdown and an interception. Beaver had 60 yards receiving on two catches including the touchdown.

Congratulations to those who made the playoffs, and everyone else who played - particularly those who stuck through thick and thin for 17 weeks.
Summary of Playoffs from September thread:
These 12 people will be given one real playoff team whose playoff points they want. The regular season winner has the first choice of team, the second place finisher has the second choice and so on. The 12th place finisher is stuck with the last team not chosen, but still must choose a team* (see rules below). Regular season points do not count toward playoff totals. In case of a tie, the playoff champion will be the team that advances the furthest.
(Realize that teams that play in the wild-card round play an extra game. That's all part of the challenge. Does your team go 1 and done? So, for example, last year's playoff point winner was the Ravens at 124. The Ravens were in the wild-card round. They nearly lost to the Broncos in the 2nd round. So, strategy comes into play ... do you take a wild-card round team with the extra round and hope for a run to the Super Bowl, or do you go with a team that earns a bye that you expect to go all the way?)
The Season Champion is the player with the most playoff points when the Super Bowl is over.
Here's what each of you need to do:
1) Look at the "Order" column above to find your name.
2) Post your preference, IN ORDER, for the team you would most like to have; If you are ranked #1, you really only need to give me 1 team, since no one can pick before you; If you are ranked #10, give me your top 10 teams.
56redsox and irishfanatic tied for 07/08. These 2 players should give me a list of 8 teams.
3) Do not wait for everyone ranked higher than you to post your list. Doing this could cause you to miss the deadline. The deadline for posting is 12PM EDT Saturday Jan. 4th.
If you want to keep your selection private until the deadline you can send an email to:
If you use this method please do 3 things:
1) Post a note on this thread telling me to check for email
2) Identify your BDC name in the email
3) Send the email before the deadline
I will post these selections in this thread after the deadline.
Some more rules:
1) I will assign teams to game players by looking at their list in order from top to bottom. So, even if you are ranked #5, for example, you may get assigned a team that you ranked higher if no one above you took them.
2) The tie between 56redsox and irishfanatic will probably resolve itself under Rule 1, above. If all else fails I will flip a coin and 1 guy will get #7 and the other will get #8.
3) Anyone failing to post a list will not get a team
4) Once you post your list it is final.
5) If you have any questions, post them BEFORE you post your list.
This thread will be the final thread for this contest, through all rounds of the playoffs. I will post updated standings after each round.
Good Luck!
