Support Through Sport
The Community Semper Fi Fund Team consists of compassionate people who take the time and initiative to compete in athletic events, host athletic events, and/or accomplish athletic feats while supporting the Semper Fi Fund. Because fundraising is a competitive endeavor, we consider all members of the Community Semper Fi Team, our Community Athletes!
By rallying communities in support of the Semper Fi Fund, Community Athletes show our injured and ill servicemen and women that they are not forgotten, and that "help is on the way." The funding and awareness that is raised by Community Athletes is an integral part of the support system that the Semper Fi Fund needs to accomplish its mission.
Community Athletes compete in marathons, triathlons, softball games, baseball games, football games, motorsports, golfing, biking, climbing, or even simply conduct a letter writing or fundraising campaign. They pledge to raise funds and awareness for the Semper Fi Fund throughout their generous efforts, and they usually have fun in the process!
Whether you are a seasoned athlete or participating in your first event, your efforts can make a difference in the quality of life for our nation's injured service members.
Come Run for the Fund!
Community Semper Fi Team registrations are now open for our premier runs and we want you on our team!
We'd like to take a moment to express our gratitude for all our Community Athletes participating in races to raise money and support the Semper Fi Fund. Check out the event calendar below and see all the amazing individuals competing on behalf of the Semper Fi Fund.

On Wednesday the New York City Council voted 45-3 to pass the New York City Earned Sick Time Act, a bill that will require employers with more than 20 employees to provide five paid sick days to each of them every year while mandating that those employees using their sick days can't be fired. The law would become effective on January 1, 2014, and companies with more than 15 employees would be required to comply with the law starting in 2015.
Even if Mayor Bloomberg vetoes the bill, the council will likely override it, making the law effective anyway. This will impact the employers of more than one million employees who currently have no paid sick days provided for them. The costs to be borne by those employers weren't provided in any public announcements.
The AFL/CIO explained why such legislation was needed:
In addition to the potential loss of wages for working families, the lack of paid sick days forces many people to go to work when they are contagious and [make] co-workers and customers sick.
No paid sick time also decreases [the] productivity for workers who show up unable to perform to their normal level of ability.
The Center for Popular Democracy (CPD) was joyous over the vote, calling it "a historic agreement to give over one million New Yorkers the right to take paid days off from work to care for themselves or a sick family member. The new legislation represents a major step forward for workers' rights." The CPD was joined by Make the Road New York; 32 BJ SEIU, the largest property service workers union; NYC City Council's Progressive Caucus; the Working Families Party; A Better Balance; and the NY Paid Sick Leave Coalition.
Bill Lipton of the Working Families Party was equally ecstatic: "This is a sweet victory. It provides economic security for New Yorkers, and a shot in the arm for the paid sick days movement across the country."

Filling out the FAFSA is a requirement for students who want to receive student loans, grants, participate in the work-study program or receive TOPS. Ninety-four percent of beginning full-time students at Northwestern State received some type of financial aid last year.
According to Assistant Director for Verification Lauren Jackson, starting the process as early as possible can be very helpful.
"If you get started early, it gives you plenty of time to gather necessary documentation and get answers to any questions you may have," said Jackson. "By waiting you risk having to scramble at the last moment and perhaps not making deadlines."
Northwestern State's priority deadline for financial aid is May 1.
There are several things Jackson said students and their parents should do in filling out the FAFSA to prevent problems.
"The biggest thing is to not leave anything blank," she said. "Even though you are allowed to skip certain items, it's best not to do that because each item on the form has a purpose. Another item that causes problems involves the number of people in a household. This should be the number of people the parents support."
This year, Northwestern State is encouraging students and parents to use the IRS data retrieval process. Jackson said this process allows tax filers to load their data into the FAFSA.
"There is no requirement to do this, but it can save students and their parents a lot of time," said Jackson. "If a student is chosen for verification, we can no longer accept a copy of a tax return if they do not use the IRS Data Retrieval Process. The tax return will need to be a return transcript that comes from the IRS. By using the IRS Data Retrieval Process, we can quickly get needed information."
Jackson encouraged students or prospective students with questions to go to the Financial Aid Office's website at financialaid.nsula.edu. The site has a great deal of information that will help parents and students as they fill out the FAFSA. For further information, contact the Financial Aid Office at (318) 357-5961 or at email@example.com. The office is located in Roy Hall, Room 103.

Guilty Pleasures: Top 10 Love Songs We're Afraid To Admit We Belt Out (page 5)

6. "Kiss From A Rose"- [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Seal [/lastfm]
Sometimes, when we really want to think hard, we ponder the meaning behind the extremely metaphorical lyrics of Seal's "Kiss From A Rose." How exactly does a rose kiss you? With all its thorns, would you want it to kiss you? Where is the greying tower?
But, most of time, we just like to sing this song loudly and gesticulate with wild, sweeping motions.
And apparently, it's worked for Seal and Heidi Klum's relationship. All that rose kissing and gesticulating.

I would love to try a bit of soft tip darts. the thought of a machine that stores all your stats where ever you are in the world is fascinating. I also heard of a soft tip machine that has a sort of dart pro game built in - so you could literally play someone elsewhere in the world on it - built in camera and television screen so you could see the opposing player and they could see you. Brilliant!

By KEN LARSONSun Advocate publisher
Controversy has plagued Nine Mile Canyon the last few months as gas developers stepped up the companies' intentions for increased drilling.
What has surfaced are stakeholders' concerns about the future of Nine Mile Canyon.
Last Saturday, people representing numerous agencies and companies gathered in the canyon to observe the sites, drive the roads and discuss the differences and concerns.
College of Eastern Utah president Ryan Thomas referred to gathering as "neighborhoods coming together."
Organized by Carbon Commissioner Steve Burge and county tourism executive Kathy Hanna-Smith, 20 interested parties were present at the gathering.
A lot is at stake in Nine Mile Canyon and, because of personal and agency concerns, emotions have flared. But Saturday took the groups away from the negotiating table and brought the parties into the field.
One agency not present was the United States Bureau of Land Management. The BLM is playing a large part in the permitting process of the development in the canyon.
Besides county government and tourism, other players meeting included the Nine Mile Coalition, Bill Barrett Corporation, Utah School and Institutional Trust Land Administration, archeological groups, the college, CEU museum and private citizens.
Saturday was a typical fall or early winter day in Nine Mile Canyon. Roads were muddy, with a cold wind blowing snow from the southwest. Longhorn cattle grazed along the roadsides and a few four-wheelers were exploring the area. Several gas exploration vehicles headed to a site, while a family observed the rock art and local ranchers loading cattle from corrals.
Addressing the group, Burge pointed to the activities and referred several times to the fact that Nine Mile is a multiple-use canyon.
The Carbon commissioner said the purpose of the gathering was to make sure "each hand knows what the other one is doing."
Stops during the day included Rassmussen Cave, the famous rock art hunting scene on Cottonwood Canyon, Nine Mile Bunk and Breakfast and two-day use areas where restrooms have been added.
Commissioner Burge lead the discussion and gave everyone opportunities to talk and share their concern or recommendation in developing and preserving the canyon.
Thomas expressed gratitude for including the college as a part of the group.
"Just as the college has a mission to come together to build educational programs so do we today have an obligation to build neighborhoods that work together," Thomas said. "We have a strong commitment to preserve this area,"
CEU's mission lies in the development and preservation of archaeology as well as educating students. Last year the college provided some 14,000 hours of community service.
"We could easily get people to assist in developing these areas," pointed out Thomas.
A sub-committee designed for the purpose of coordinating efforts was discussed. Thomas and Steve Tanner agreed to co-chair the sub-committee.
"Nine Mile Canyon, with the assistance of Bill Barrett Corporation, proved industry and preservationists could co-exist together to create a partnership to protect and preserve this vast archaeological wonder," commented Tanner, at a recent symposium.
The large group will meet quarterly but a smaller executive group, with seven members, will be formed to meet regularly to monitor the steps and keep everyone updated.
The next meeting is being scheduled for the first week of December at CEU.
An important element in the discussion is the Nine Mile Coalition. Several members were present Saturday and pointed out the historical significance of the panels and the large amount of work that has been done the past few years constructing rest areas.
Pam Miller told the group that the project is divided into three phases and the next phase includes the construction. She said she believes that "Bill Barrett's plan could make a huge improvement," referencing the discussion of a trail from the rest area to the actual site, the signage and a protection fence to keep the viewers from further damaging the fragile site.
The Rassmussen Cave sits on land which belongs to Barrett, across the canyon from the new compressor station that is being assembled. Barrett purchased the 16-acre parcel of land from author Lee Nelson.
Recently the county commission approved a conditional use permit so Barrett could proceed with construction of the compressor station.
"We would like to recognize what we have to preserve history and find a way to co-exist with industry," Burge summarized. "Barrett has been great about stepping up to the plate."
Bill Griffith, consultant with Barrett, talked about their commitment to the Rassmussen site and the company's intention to restore it and protect it.
"We are proud of our willingness to cleaning up sites along the way," he stated.
The group also looked closely at the Cottonwood Canyon site which houses one of the most touted rock art pieces in the entire canyon.
It was interesting to watch the wheels turning as geologists, historians, government leaders and engineers brainstormed on site possible modifications to the area. The air was filled with such comments as "we could move the road over here, use these rocks to block and protect the art, put the sign here, and create an area here as a school bus turnaround."
Many agreed that this kind of dialogue does not usually happen sitting around tables.
An oversight committee was formed with the united effort to start improvements in the canyon.
"We will take unified action to make these improvements," Burge said.
Local rock art specialist Layne Miller gave an overview of the significance of the canyon, particularly the Rassmussen Cave area where three separate cultures have meshed with rock art ranging from 2000 years old to the most recent Ute Indian's art.
"It's all right here and represents many years of history," he explained. "This is a truly unique area."
Miller discussed removing the graffiti and said that three experts have been invited to look at the site and decide what the best methods are for removal.
"I commend Bill Barrett for their commitment," he concluded.

Last Saturday Helper residents found a survey pinned to their mailbox concerning their feelings about their city.
The survey that was prepared by members of the Helper City Planning and Zoning Commission has been put together so that city officials can learn more about how residents feel about their town.
At the last Helper City Council meeting two weeks ago, the survey was presented to council members who thought the idea was a very good one, and agreed to let the commission use volunteer help to pass out the survey. The survey can be submitted to Helper City Hall up to and including June 10.
The feeling among many of those who were in on preparing the survey is that people need a way to voice their opinions in a anonymous way.
The survey covers a number of areas about the city from the effectiveness of city services to what they like and don't like about the town in general.
Many residents were surprised to see the surveys despite the fact the word had gone around town about the upcoming delivery and the fact the Sun Advocate reported it would be coming after the council meeting.
Once the surveys are collected, members of the planning commission will work to compile people's concerns, report back to the council and work to utilize the information for the betterment of the community.

Lowe Named MVC Scholar-Athlete of the Week
The award marks Lowe's first career MVC Scholar-Athlete of the Week honor. It is the fourth scholar-athlete award claimed by a Bluejay this season. Junior Becca Changstrom claimed the other three earlier this year.
Lowe recorded a stellar performance at the plate last weekend. Lowe came into the series with one career homer but hit two out of Price Field at ISU as she posted a .636 average at the plate on 7-of-11 hitting that also included two doubles.
She capitalized on batting in the leadoff position in all three games last weekend after batting at the top of the lineup just twice earlier this season. Lowe's 15 total bases and slugging percentage of 1.364 led the team against the Sycamores.
Lowe owns nine hits over the last five games and has reached base safely in each of the last 11 contests.
She stands first on the team with eight doubles in 2013 and is second on the team with 23 runs scored and 11 multiple-hit games. Lowe's batting average of .337, 33 hits, 13 walks, .420 on-base percentage and five multiple-RBI games all rank third on the team this year.
A nursing major, Lowe owns a 3.493 grade-point average.
Now in its 14th year of existence, the Valley's Scholar-Athlete program honors its student-athletes for their athletic performance for a one-week period and academic success in the classroom.
To qualify for Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Week laurels, student-athletes must carry a cumulative grade-point average of 3.20, completed at least one academic year at a Valley institution and must be at least a sophomore in academic standing.
Redshirt freshmen and first-year junior college transfers are not eligible. In addition to the academic qualifications, student-athletes will be evaluated on their athletic performance for a one-week period.
Creighton (24-11, 10-2 MVC) is set to host Southern Illinois (19-20, 7-6 MVC) for a three-game series beginning with a Saturday doubleheader at noon.

FREEPORT, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - It's been two months since the Amtrak Downeaster started making runs to Freeport. While the passenger service is being credited for bringing an increase of visitors, some say the noise from the trains is disrupting their lives and even costing some businesses money.
Guests who want to sleep in at the Hilton Garden Inn are getting a rude awakening. 'The train going by at 6:30 in the morning and then gain at 7:20 or so is a challenge especially on the weekend,' said Josh Cushing the manager of the Hilton Garden Inn in Freeport. The hotel is located between two railroad crossings. He says while the Amtrak Downeaster train service has brought more visitors, the noise is the top complaint from guests.
The hotel spent 15-hundred dollars on sleep kits, complete with ear plugs to help guests get a good night's sleep. The hotel management is supporting efforts to get Freeport designated a quiet zone as a way to deal with the noise. The town would have to upgrade the crossings to meet federal safety guidelines, which could cost anywhere from one-thousand to a million dollars.
Town council members are expected to vote next Tuesday night whether to authorize applying for a quiet zone designation from the Federal Railroad administration.

Video: Rigging the Wire for Nik Wallenda Walk
Video: Wallenda Walk: Preparations Begin
Video: Helicopter Lands on American Side
Video: Helicopter Transports Messenger Wire
Video: Wallenda Walk: Prep Work Underway
NIAGARA FALLS, NY -- Next to Nik Wallenda's actual high wire walk itself, rigging of the cable upon which he will cross the world famous Horseshoe Falls may be the biggest marvel associated with the stunt.
WEB EXTRA: Photo Gallery: Cable Rigging Begins For Nik Wallenda Walk
That task, nearly one year in the planning, began in earnest Monday when crews began setting up their needed equipment.
Terrapin Point closed at 4pm Tuesday so crews can start pulling a wire by helicopter over the Falls. The cable Wallenda will walk across will be attached to this wire and pulled across the Falls.
"It's kind of amazing how people find this interesting," remarked Peter Catchpole of Power Engineering, who was hired by Wallenda to design the rigging for his 1,800 foot long, two inch diameter cable.
"I even read the plan...twice!" Catchpole joked.
The job also represents a homecoming for Catchpole, who lives in Idaho but who grew up in Southern Ontario, within minutes of the American border near Niagara Falls.
Here's How It Works:
As we've previously reported, a high tension, lighter cable was first affixed to a helicopter and flown across the gorge.
"As soon as we can get the okay from the Maid of the Mist that they finished running for the day and everybody is clear of the river, then we'll go ahead and start that,"said Randy Fletcher, a foreman for Rochester based O'Connell Electric who is overseeing the rigging task.
That was delayed Tuesday because a briefing took longer than expected. We're told the delay was not because of weather.
Once the first wire, or "messenger wire" is secured on both sides, one end of the cable Wallenda will actually walk upon (weighing seven tons) will be attached to one end and then winched back across the gorge with giant machines.
The whole apparatus will be anchored to bolts sunk deep into the bedrock a few hundred yards back from the brink of the falls near Terrapin Point on the American side, and on the Canadian side near Table Rock.
Asked what aspect of the job presented the biggest challengs, Catchpole told WGRZ-TV, "The devil is always in the details so it's lots of little things. I would say the timing. We only have from today to Wednesday morning at dawn to have it up."
Meanwhile, the Niagara Power Project says it will open its parking lot seven miles downriver from the Falls on June 15th, for 600 cars which will be able to park for free. However, a ride on a shuttle bus from that location to a drop off point a few blocks from Niagara Falls State Park will cost $5 per person.
In addition, Niagara Falls Coach Lines will open its lot on Buffalo Avenue to cars. The fee will be $10 per vehicle, with no shuttle service, leaving those who choose to park there with a trek of about one mile to the park.

I have been working in the art market since 1989 and principally sell Fine Master Drawings from the sixteenth century to early twentieth centuries, however I also deal in contemporary pictures and have held a number of contemporary exhibitions. Some of these contemporary pictures can be seen on this website, and I have had focused exhibitions on contemporary botanical works as well as figurative, landscape and animalier pictures.
In July each year in London I participate in London Art Week [was called Master Drawings London & Sculpture week] and in January in Manhattan I also exhibit in Master Drawings New York week. The links to these sites are on each page of this website. I am actively involved with the organisation and running of these Master Drawings weeks in New York and London with my colleagues in the fine art trade. I also work as a consultant to Bonhams UK and Bonhams & Butterfields in the USA for their Old Master Drawings.
One of my areas of expertise is advising private clients in many areas in the art market, due to my own unique and extensive experience of having worked for all the main auction houses and in the trade. In addition to this I advise Private Collectors, Institutional buyers and Museums in the buying and selling of fine drawings and paintings at auction or from dealers, valuations for probate, for Canadian Cultural Heritage, for Insurance and other Tax purposes.
I have written in numerous publications and lectured at various societies and conducted historical art tours. A number of these articles are published on this website.
My interest in the Fine Arts started as a student at Eton College, where I studied Art History, and had an extensive practical experience as a student in sculpture, and winning the senior Sculpture Prize. I went on to study Art History at University and as a student at St. Andrews University in Scotland where I gained an MA with Honours. With summer jobs at the Guggenheim Museum in Venice and Sotheby's in Florence after graduation I joined Sotheby's London as a graduate trainee working in various departments from Impressionist pictures to Jewellery. I had some work experience at the British Museum, assisting a keeper in the Prints & Drawings Department, and it was at this point that I decided to specialise in the field of Master Drawings. I joined Phillips, Son & Neale and worked there for four years. I went on to gain further practical experience as an artist and studied life drawing in evening classes at Heatherly's School of Art, where I learnt just how difficult it is to be a professional artist! An opportunity arose to join the Old Master Drawings Department at Christie's where I worked till 1998, after which I started my own business.
In 2000, with a number of colleagues, I launched Master Drawings in London, now Master Drawings and Sculpture Week, and in 2007 assisted Margot Gordon with starting Master Drawings New York. Both these events require extensive assistance from other dealers and I have found both events enormously helpful in meeting new clients and colleagues.
Please note all prices quoted include the drawings and mounts, the frames can be purchased separately.

Dreams are the Royal Road to the unconscious. Dreams are a language of myth and symbol uniquely your own and provide a well of creativity and wisdom to draw upon for self-learning, growth and to inspire us in our lives.
A workshop in dreams, dreaming & creativity: Hands-on, experiential, fun/serious using myth, symbol, ritual, and your creative ability for expression and self-exploration.
My work is based in the research of artist and researcher Dr. Maria Volchenko and that of Drs. Stanley Krippner, David Feinstein, Jean Houston, and Allan Combs, leaders in the fields of dreams and creativity studies. Anyone interested in dreams and dreaming is welcome! This work has also proven itself to be very useful for psychology and consciousness studies students, as well as writers, musicians, and artists of many varieties and "just ordinary folk" who are interested in their dreams. It is very magical and very powerful. Participants come away with a "tool-kit" of sorts to assist in understanding and using their dreams for understanding their inner symbolic language and utilize this understanding for growing as a human being and for creative expression.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Science of a Meaningful Life: Taking in the Good
Presentations by Rick Hanson, Ph.D. and Lee Lipsenthal, M.D.
*When*: Saturday, October 15, 2011
*Where*: International House, UC Berkeley Campus
2299 Piedmont Ave., Berkeley, CA
The event will also be webcast live! Click here for more details.
**Attendees can receive six continuing education units* *
Want to make good feelings last? This seminar will offer concrete, research-based strategies for turning quick positive emotions into long-lasting positive experiences.
It will be led by neuropsychologist Rick Hanson, the renowned teacher and best-selling author of Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom. Dr. Hanson, who is also an Affiliate of the Greater Good Science Center and a Greater Good columnist, will discuss how the brain has evolved a "negativity bias," making it like Velcro for negative experiences but Teflon for positive ones. This gives us a heightened response to threats and stress and tilts the mind toward feelings of pessimism, anxiety, mistrust, and inadequacy.
Yet through mindful attention to his four steps of "taking in the good," we can internalize positive experiences in our memory systems, which can improve our mood and coping skills and heal painful, even traumatic, experiences—in effect, changing our outlook on ourselves and the world around us. The results include greater happiness, resilience, and depth in relationships.
This seminar will also feature Lee Lipsenthal, board certified internist trained in the prevention of heart disease and founder of Finding a Balance in a Medical Life. In his talk, "Enjoy Every Sandwich; Living Each Day as if it were Your Last," Dr. Lipsenthal will explore the power and neurophysiology of emotional shifting practices. He will explain what it means to live in a neuro-imaginal world made up of belief structures and how this can create unwanted stress. Understanding the long-term benefits of shifting focus away from worry and towards gratitude will allow us to live each day fully.
This event will be webcast live! Attend in-person or online.

A donation from Exelon Nuclear's LaSalle County Generating Station has made a big hit at the Wrigley Field West ball fields in Grand Ridge, Ill.
MARSEILLES, Ill. (Aug. 5, 2009) - A donation from Exelon Nuclear's LaSalle County Generating Station has made a big hit at the Wrigley Field West ball fields in Grand Ridge, Ill.
LaSalle Station made a donation that helped the Grand Ridge Youth Baseball Association purchase bleachers for Rachel Field, it's t-ball and instructional league field. Rachel Field is part of the Wrigley Field West complex in rural Grand Ridge. Rachel Field is named after Grand Ridge residents Bob and Cheryl Durdan's late granddaughter.
The association has made additional enhancements to the field, including a new scoreboard and brick walls that accentuate the outfall walls, similar to the historic Chicago Cubs' ball park.
To commemorate the re-furbished field, the association re-dedicated its t-ball and instructional league field in front of about 100 local residents Saturday, July 24. State Sen. Gary Dahl (R-Granville) and former Major League Baseball pitcher and Marquette High School graduate Guy Hoffman attended the ceremony.
"It was a proud night for the Grand Ridge youth baseball program," said Rick Bacon, vice president of the Grand Ridge Youth Baseball Association. "It has taken many generous sponsors and volunteers to make this dream come true. Rachel Field will serve this program extremely well for years to come. On behalf of the youth of Grand Ridge, we want to thank Exelon Nuclear for the donation that helped us purchase the bleachers."
"LaSalle Station was extremely proud to help Grand Ridge buy bleachers," added LaSalle Station Site Vice President Dave Wozniak. "I commend the Durdan family and the Youth Baseball Association for creating such a wonderful facility. You can actually see our nuclear plant from the ball field, so to help our neighbors and the Grand Ridge community is a true honor for us."
To date, LaSalle Station has donated more than $35,000 to local communities in LaSalle and Grundy counties for educational, recreational, environmental and community initiatives. LaSalle Station is located approximately 75 miles southwest of Chicago. With both units at full power, the site produces more than 2,200 megawatts net, which is enough electricity for 2.3 million homes.

David Darling's beaming face clearly displays the sheer joy and excitement associated with riding a tube down an icy slope at Terrace Hills Park.
The snow in the area has become much less beautiful in the last several weeks and the icy aspect of winter is starting to show on sled hills around the valley.

Snow levels in the mountains above the valley total approximately 32 inches at measuring stations and contain slightly more than 10 inches of water. As of Monday, the snowpack in the drainage system registers at about 88 percent of normal.

Distributes weight from the face and body to create perimeter weighting and positions CG behind the Sweet Zone.
Sculpted sole configuration that improves turf interaction for all swing types.
Vibration Dampening System tunes vibration for a better sound and feel.
By their nature, our R&D team doesn't get outside very much. But when they created the new AMP Cell Iron with E9 Face Technology, new AMP Cell weighting and true metalwood face-weld construction, even they emerged from their CAD stations to hit the links. Our E9 Face Tech is smart because it makes the spots where you mishit the ball more forgiving. Fewer mishits means more shot precision. Sweet. Want your ball to go further? By welding a hot, thin face to a softer body, our true metalwood construction means an iron created like a driver. (Maybe these R&D Guys need to get back in the lab, they're like mad scientists!) We haven't even mentioned the customizable chassis for adjusting loft and lie, and, yes you did hear that correctly. Our new AMP Cell Technology uses biomimicry to create a cellular structure within the iron to move weight with almost neurotic accuracy. These irons may be enough to leave your long time golfing buddies in a state of neurosis as they are not going to know what is going on when they see the improvements in your game. Add our patented V-Skid sole for smooth turf interaction, a premium Fujikura Fuel shaft and availability in 4 hot colors, and you've got a technical wunderkind that can't possibly be USGA-legal (but is).

Chimaira & Slayer - Part 1
Posted on February 12, 2008This past weekend Chimaira and Slayer and American Head Charge (on the God Hates The World Tour) played Canada. Speaking with Chimaira's vocalist earlier, "it was fuckin amazing. Toronto and Montreal were fuckin sick..." To all of you in Canada, we salute you. Did You Know? - during one of the shows this past weekend, Mark almost slipped up and instead of saying "Canada" was about to say "Canadia" when addressing the audience. See, it all comes from some inside joke regarding our good friend Geoff mentioned previously (Spineshank's drum tech), whom is from there. Not sure what the joke exactly is, but word is the bands always jest "Let's go back to Canadia Land." Maybe Geoff will shed some light on this for us, or maybe not. Anyway, Chimaira left Portland, Maine on Nov 11 for the lovely drive to New Jersey - the scene of the crime for Nov 12's show. Figuring an average speed of 60 mph, this simple 275 mile trek should really take no more than 6 hours max, yes? Well, instead of arriving in the Garden State at 7:00am as originally anticipated, they got there at 3:30pm instead. Turns out the driver was getting his 'nap on' and someone made a grievous wrong turn along the way. Mark tells the morning was spent with him screaming at the top of his lungs.
I know you know that Chimaira are currently pounding stages across the US with Slayer, right? Well, one of their crew is our good friend Geoff. Geoff was part of the Spineshank crew over here not all that long ago! He gets around... Anyway, Geoff was kind enough to take some time out and send us some words on how this immense tour is going... (watch out for more updates as the tour continues)
Whassup all you UK wakkos!?!?!?! Geoff(4AM) here...I am out with Chimaira on the Slayer run in the States...and doing my best to send some updates from this trip when I can...so here goes....
Mon 10/29/01 New Orleans, LA @ House Of Blues

By the way, all the Slayer cats are waaaaay kool....crew and all, this is a great way to end the year. This show was well anticipated..sold out to be exact.
Fri 11/02/01 Myrtle Beach, SC @ House Of Blues
We are joined by American Head Charge, an eclectic group of bombastic lunatics!! The show is quite a spectcle at this point...musically and visually. Most of this day consisted of an alligator farm next to the venue...albino and every other kind of alligator you can think of. There is footage and , most likely, it will end up on a home vid somewhere down the line. Show is off the hook as usual.
Sat 11/03/01 Atlanta, GA @ Tabernacle
This place is an old Southern Baptist church in the heart of the Bible Belt in the SOUTH!! How freekin fiting ! Looks like it has bit of the old-school New Orleans voodoo in the paintings and adornments. Wicked wicked crowd.......Chimaira, being fairly new on the scene, are being WELL recieved ...there is a bit of a buzz and lots of anticipation for them.....looks like it can only get better at this point.
Sun 11/04/01 Norfolk, VA @ The NorVa
We are joined by none other than the boys from SYSTEM OF A DOWN and a few of the Slipknot tech's for a night of mayhem and debauchery as we have the next 2 days off...so the partying was in full effect this night. Mild rumours that we may join System at their show at the Boathouse here in Virginia tomorrow, if not we will be there showing full support anyway....then we will be off to hook up with Slayer and AHC in Washington, DC...our nations capitol.
I will get back to you lot as soon as possible....see ya soon. Geoff (4AM)

Forced "family planning" is in full swing in China, with a recent report by the Texas-based watchdog group ChinaAid revealing that the city of Huizhou in the southern China Guangdong Province has launched a campaign aimed at reducing the number of births in the city of four and one-half million residents.
According to ChinaAid, the new initiative requires "women who already had a child to be fitted with an IUD, while those with two children had to undergo a tubal ligation [sterilization]." Women who comply "within a certain time frame would receive a financial reward," ChinaAid reported, citing a government announcement posted throughout the city and online. "Meanwhile, those who did not comply would not be issued certificates by the family planning departments when their children are to enroll in school, social security departments will not process applications for social security services, hospitals will not issue relevant certifications, and the local government will refuse to handle all related services for them."
According to some local residents monitoring the campaign, "Huizhou's performance record in family planning is poor (birth rate is too high and the number of abortions and sterilizations too low), hence this wave of family planning measures," reported ChinaAid. Further, Huizhou is apparently not unique in imposing the policy. "Information from other sources indicate that similar birth control requirements are being imposed on women in other provinces as well," reported ChinaAid. "On the government website for Fuzhou, Fujian province, a commenter suggested the same measure [was] already in place in Huizhou: that documents showing the mother's use of IUD be presented at the time of applying for household registration for a newborn."

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate community editor
Lee Barry thought he had seen it all in his years as Wellington's police chief.
For example, Barry said he once had a woman read him the riot act for pulling her over to tell her she had a low tire on one side of her car that had been worn down to the cords.
In another incident, the police chief had a truck driver tailgate him one foot from his patrol vehicle's back bumper from Price to Wellington, honking the horn all the way. The trucker then passed Barry on a double yellow line so he could get to an eatery in town more quickly.
But what the police chief is seeing now doesn't have an odd quality, but it creates a danger to motorists traveling on U.S. Highway 6. That danger comes from drivers who are increasingly gaining speed coming through Wellington.
"Since the highway between Price and Wellington has been turned into four lanes, the speeding has really picked up," pointed out Barry. "We seem to not only be getting more people speeding, but they are doing it at a higher rate of travel."
Most Carbon County residents know that driving fast through the 40 mile per hour zone in Wellington can result in a ticket. Yet a large percentage of the citations Barry and his officers write are to local drivers.
"It's surprising that about a third of our citations are given to residents from Carbon and Emery County," said Barry. "I think sometimes I have cited just about everyone who lives in the east county area at one point or another.
Barry said speeds picked up most during the actual construction period on the road, despite the fact there is a law that was put on the books a few years ago that double the fines for speeding in construction zones. While there will still be more construction on the road starting this spring in the area, the now wide open road between the two towns, that is presently posted at 60 mph has become a raceway for some.
Barry said that he and his officers have clocked some drivers going over 80 mph coming into Wellington from the west, although speeders who get cited most often fall into the 60 to 70 mph range.
"To me it was interesting that the higher speeds actually came during the construction, but regardless, the speeding continues and we will keep citing people that are coming through town too fast from both directions," said the chief.
Barry said that often his force will pull someone over for speeding and will find other things wrong as well, most often seat bell violations.
Traditionally the biggest speeders have come from the east into the Wellington area. In that area the speed is posted at 45 mph from about the road to Nine Mile Canyon until just outside of downtown Wellington where it drops to 40 mph.
Some county and state police have reported clocking people at over 90 mph coming into the area from Cat Canyon just east of the Wellington..
"Another problem I have also been seeing is that people are not stopping for stop signs coming onto the highway from side streets. If we see that we always cite them. I have seen way too many serious accidents because people didn't stop at those in this town," concluded Barry.
