I think the Navajos got it right. When you drive across the reservation you see they live dispersed from one another. They are not town people.They live on isolated little farmsteads scattered all across the desert. There is usually a mile or more between neighbors. And most of the farmsteads are not real farms, just a house, a few outbuildings, a small garden, a corral for livestock and a pickup truck or two. Smart people those Navajos. Who could ask for anything more?
Of course there are some inconveniences to living dispersed like that. Most Navajos haul water and firewood and there is no electricity to most of the rancheros. Toilet facilities are outback. Houses are often made in the traditional tribal design but with a propane tank and sometimes a diesel generator snuggled against the house. Roads are dirt and it's a long ways to the grocery store or the school bus stop.
But there are advantages to living dispersed like that. The Navajos respect each other's space and privacy and it's a great way to minimize conflict. People get along better when there's a mile of open space between neighbors. You can't hear the other guy's dog bark or smell what's in his trashcan. You don't have to endure him mowing his lawn at 6 a.m. or hosting a week-long rock-n-roll family reunion. People in the neighborhood don't get on each other's nerves. You don't have to build fences to keep the peace.
And if the neighbor comes home late at night slamming car doors with rap music turned to mind-warping decibels, it doesn't wake you up. Families can work out their differ ences by having family fights in private. You can cuss the dog, yodel at the moon, or improve your marksmanship by shooting at tin cans in the backyard without bothering the neighbors. It's a great way to live.
So why don't we all live like the Navajos? Well, for one thing, the Navajo Nation has a different concept about private and communal property. Navajos are pretty well free to live anywhere they choose on tribal lands. The land is sacred but it was given by the creator to use and make a living from. Access is important. There are roads everywhere on the reservation. Native Americans are no dummies.
Some of us Anglos would like to live that way but we just can't do it here. We have a lot of open space but it's all tied up by the state and federal governments with no more homesteading allowed. Too much red tape, too. I wanted to be a hermit once but found there was a nine-year waiting list just to file an application for a hermit permit. By the time my number came up I had been civilized, socially redeemed and broke to lead. I was out of the notion. I think Edward Abbey got my permit.
I was discussing this with Uncle Spud the other day and he came up with a great idea.
"I think we should give the public lands to the public," he said. "In fact, I think we should nationalize all private property and then divide the whole country up, just to make things fair."
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"It would work out perfectly," he promised. "There are 3,794,066 square miles of land in the United States and we have a population of 300,000,000. Figure it up and each person gets eight acres. We could have a national land lottery. A family of four would be granted 32 acres. Grandma and Grandpa get 16. After the drawing everyone would be required to live on their own property. It would spread everyone out, reduce smog and road congestion, and we could all get along better than we do today."
"But it wouldn't be fair," I said. "Some people would get Hawaii while others would draw land in some arctic national wildlife refuge with no roads and no drilling."
"That's true," he said. "But we could give wilderness lovers bonus points to help them have a better chance for drawing a choice location like ANWR. The rest of us could take our chances with Waikiki or Palm Beach. It would be tough to live without ice and polar bears, but someone would have to do it."
"Any sacrifice for the good of the country," I agreed.

OGDENSBURG When Assistant Superintendent David J. Valois retires at the end of this school year, the district will not hire a replacement.
Eliminating the position will help save $137,000 in next years budget as the district considers administrative reorganization, Superintendent Timothy M. Vernsey said. Most of that sum, $119,119, is Mr. Valoiss salary. Mr. Vernsey declined to specify where the remaining $17,881 in savings will come from, saying only that it will result from the realignment of administrative duties.
Were definitely looking at moving some people around, he said.
That does not include layoffs of administration staff; just reorganizing and shifting responsibilities, he said.
Mr. Vernsey said he expects to have a plan ready to release to the public by May 1.
Meanwhile, Board of Education President Frederick P. Bean said the plan is to make the school administration more efficient.
We wont have an assistant superintendent anymore, Mr. Bean said. Thats gone. The question of how you restructure that and how you break up those duties is up in the air.
The assistant superintendent is responsible for overseeing the special education program, helping Mr. Vernsey discipline students and filling in whenever Mr. Vernsey is away.
Mr. Bean said the district is considering how to assign the duties of the assistant superintendent to other administrators.
What were concerned about is the savings being there and the job getting done effectively and efficiently, Mr. Bean said.
To accomplish that, Mr. Bean said, another position probably will be eliminated, although the person will be retained in another capacity. He would not disclose what administrative position is being considered for elimination.
Some titles are going to change, Mr. Bean said. Its a matter of whos going to do what and whos going to be where. There have been about half a dozen different versions of the reorganization plan. The main part is finding someone to run special education.
So far, Mr. Bean said, some administrators may have to work more hours during the summer to pick up some of Mr. Valoiss duties.
While any additional work will include a corresponding pay increase for those administrators, a savings will still be accomplished, Mr. Bean said. He said the savings from cutting the assistant superintendent position in addition to the roughly $150,000 saved by closing Sherman Elementary School a year early will go a long way toward preserving the districts quality of education.
Were looking at every possible avenue to save jobs, keep programs and cut costs, Mr. Bean said.
Weve scaled way back, weve cut, weve become far more efficient, he said.

En español | Q: Will people who receive Social Security benefits get a cost-of-living increase in 2014? If so, how much, and who will get it?
A: In January, benefits will rise by 1.5 percent for the more than 57 million Social Security recipients. The higher payments also will go to more than 8 million people who get benefits under the SSI (Supplemental Security Income) program.
Sign up for the AARP Money Newsletter
If you're already on Social Security, the number of extra dollars you'll get will depend on the level of your 2013 benefits. But on average, monthly retirement payments will rise from $1,275 to $1,294, an increase of $19, Social Security says. Disabled workers will receive an average of $17 more a month, while the average widowed mother with two children will see her benefits grow by $39 a month.
The COLA for 2014 is based on the increase in the consumer price index (CPI) from the third quarter of 2012 through the third quarter of 2013.
Cost-of-living adjustments, or COLAs, are intended to ensure that Social Security payments aren't eroded by inflation. Over the last 25 years, COLAs have averaged 2.74 percent.
Q: What will be the maximum amount of my pay that can be taxed for Social Security in 2014?
A: The figure will be $117,000 — up from $113,700 in 2013. The new number is based on the national increase in average wages. The Social Security tax rate is 12.4 percent of pay, with 6.2 percent paid by the worker and 6.2 percent paid by the employer. Thus, a worker who earns $117,000 in 2014 will pay $7,254 in Social Security taxes — or about $205 more than in 2013.
In addition, employees and employers each pay a 1.45 percent tax for Medicare. But there's no cap — if an employee earns more than $117,000 in 2014, the Medicare tax will continue on the rest of the yearly salary.
In 2013, an additional Medicare tax of 0.9 percent was added by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for individuals with earned income of more than $200,000 ($250,000 for married couples filing jointly).
Q: Will Social Security change its annual earnings limit in 2014 and who will be affected?
A: The earnings limit will go up from $15,120 in 2013 to $15,480 in 2014, an increase of $360. The limit applies if you're between age 62 and full retirement age, currently age 66, get Social Security benefits and continue to work.
Community: How Have Social Security Changes in 2014 Impacted You? Join the Discussion.
There are two stages in how this works. In stage one, which applies from when you turn 62 until the start of the year in which you reach full retirement age, Social Security will withhold $1 in benefits for every $2 you earn over the $15,480 limit. Then, in the year when you reach full retirement age, a new earnings limit of $41,400 kicks in and $1 in benefits will be withheld for every $3 earned above that limit. However, Social Security only counts earnings in the months before you reach full retirement age. After that, the earnings test goes away and you can earn as much as desired.
And after you reach full retirement age, Social Security will recalculate your benefits to give you credit for any benefits that were withheld because of the earning limits. Usually, that results in a higher monthly payment.

Murder charges have been filed in the death of a woman in Lefors.
On Jan. 3, 2013, Texas Rangers served an arrest warrant for Joshua Keith Rigo, 28, of Amarillo, on the charge of murder, a felony of the first degree, in the death of Kristi Dawn Slatten, 42.
According to Texas Department of Public Safety Trooper Daniel Hawthorne, Rigo was in custody in the Carson County Jail for the original charge of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.
His bond was set at $300,000 and he remains in custody at the Carson County Jail.
Texas Rangers and the Gray County Sheriff's Office will continue to process evidence and follow leads.
The next step will be to present the case to the Gray County Grand Jury.
This past Tuesday, the Gray County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call in reference to a residence in Lefors.
The deputies responded to the location and found Slatten.
At the time, deputies found evidence of foul play and secured the scene.
The sheriff's department brought in the Texas Rangers to assist with the investigation.
It was determined that the victim's vehicle, a Chevrolet Avalanche, was missing. A warrant was issued for the vehicle.
Later that day, officers with various departments stopped the vehicle on U.S. 60, two miles west of Panhandle.
Rigo was arrested on the motor vehicle charge.
His passenger, Steve Preston Dean, 47, of Amarillo, was arrested on unrelated charges and was also taken to Carson County Jail.

A blended malt whisky is a blend of single malts. There is no grain whisky here, so these are different from standard blended whiskies. These are whiskies made from malt whisky and nothing else, though distilled at several distilleries. In principal, these can have the better features of a number of whiskies, the sum can be greater than the parts.
Compass Box are a firm advocate of the blended malt style. Their Peat Monster features a whisky from the town of Port Askaig on Islay, some whisky from Islay's southern coast, and Ardmore too. Here they've created an approachable, yet peaty dram with lots of character. The sadly defunct Jon, Mark and Robbo have also released some great blended malt whiskies, which have changed the way people think about the category.

Clippers 100, NOOCH 90
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Tue, 01/09/07, 08:27am:
Things Sam Cassell can do to help your basketball team:
- After starting 1-5 from the field in the first quarter, Sam reenters the game in the second quarter at 5:28 with the Clippers down eight. After Brand tips a horrible Devin Brown pass, Liivingston races it up and finds Sam for the 18-foot PUJIT. Yep.
The Clippers racked up 19 fast break points, the most in a game since November 14 at Utah, the seventh game of the season. After the Sacramento win, I suggested that the Clippers benefit from slower games. Having said that, there are teams --- the Hornets, Utah, Houston...and, yes, Minnesota --- the Clippers can exploit in transition. Having Sam on the court allows the Clippers to manufacture those easy buckets. Without Sam, the Clips have been backing it out of transition almost every time up.
- Off a screwball play, in which Linton Johnson strips the rock from EB, then the Hornets lose it in transition after Singleton tips it away from Pargo from behind, the Clips gets it to Sam who goes up or the PUJIT, realizes he's got contact, leans into Chandler, and hits the shot anyway.
A beautiful hybrid of Sam's most lethal maneuvers - the PUJIT and the lean-to.
- Another brilliant hybrid a couple minutes later off an EB offensive rebound. A double-clutching, two-handed hurl as Devin Brown falls into Sam.
- Coming out of halftime, with the Clippers down two, here's the Cassell/Brand synergy. Shaun inbounds the ball to Sam after an off-ball foul on Tyson Chandler. Sam holds it up top momentarily. EB arrives on the scene way up high to screen Brown, and Sam immediately finds the open space, two dribbles to his right, for the open 23-footer. Just a perfect little Elton/Sam number.
There were plenty of other PUJITs, and a nice two-man waltz with Mobley in the near post that yielded an open Sam three when Pargo fell asleep, and --- my personal favorite --- a textbook elbow screen from Elton at 7:20 in the 4th that allowed Sam to sink a 20-footer to put the Clips up by five.
One of the things I think we forget is that Elton Brand can do so much more for you on a court to win basketball games than merely score. And when Sam Cassell runs the offense, those assets seem to materialize. For the first time in a month last night, EB didn't seem frustrated. And he didn't have time to because he was so busy working off the ball to get Sam his looks. There's a terrific symbiosis between these two guys and, when it's on display, the Clippers play their best basketball.

|Easy drive to the trailhead in a 2WD sedan, short but beautiful hike that, near the end, starts to feel like you're climbing a "real" mountain...and then you suddenly leave the forest and have Howlock and Thielsen looming over you, and Crater Lake, the Sisters, Bailey, etc. in the distance. Would be a fun dayhike by itself, but tack on Howlock for an amazing day of incredible views.

|I started this hike at about 9 in the morning. At first, on the lower portion of the mountain, there was thick fog. It really angered me because it looked like it would not go away, and the main reason why I decided to hike this was to take photos. However, about an hour later, the fog cleared up. The view of Howlock Mountain was great, but Thielsen's summit was still shrouded in clouds, unfortunately. From the summit, Miller Lake was visible to the NE, and Diamond and Lemolo Lakes to the SW. Small plumes of smoke from the 650-acre Kelsay Fire near Lemolo Lake were also visible. I had time to burn, so I went over to the false summit. On the other side of it is a sheer drop, which is very different from the rest of the gentle mountain. Overall, it was a nice trip.

Paul Anderson accepts the Contribution to the Community Award that was awarded posthumously to his father, Tom Anderson. Chamber President Bobbi Ockey presents the plaque.
Past President Ethan Miglori presents Mike Milovich with this year's Contribution to the Community Award.
(Left) C.J. McManus accepts the Chamber's Media Certificate of Appreciation Award from Chamber President Bobbi Ockey on behalf of Publisher Richard Shaw and the Sun Advocate.
(Right) A toilet among other gifts were donated by chamber members to benefit Perkie Travel via a silent auction.
Bobbi Ockey (left), 2013 CCCC President presents the President's Choice Award to Ethan Migliori who stepped in this past year when the chambers sitting president had to step down. "He is always there when you need him," said Ockey during the ceremony. "He is an example for us all." In January, Miglori also began his first term as an Emery County Commissioner.
The Carbon County business community came together Thursday evening at the Tuscan Restaurant as the Carbon County Chamber of Commerce acknowledged several community leaders and board members while having a few laughs among the men and women who sustain the area's economy.
Emcee Nick Tatton was in fine form, coming off as what one listener called a mixture between Billy Crystal and Ricky Gervais.
USU Eastern celebrated its 75th anniversary at the banquet, a milestone that was punctuated by keynote remarks from USU Vice President for Commercialization and Region Development Robert Behunin. Over the course of his 20 minute address, he outlined several groundbreaking and vital projects which will have a direct effect on the area's economy and immediate future. See the Sun Advocate's Thursday edition for a full review of the vice president's remarks.
The chamber's award ceremony kicked off with their annual recognition of the community's media. The Sun Advocate, AJB Broadcasting and Castle Country Radio were all honored by the Chamber. Taking the time to poke a bit of fun, Tatton addressed "Uncle Tony Basso."
"For those of you keeping track at home, Tony is now the second vice president of the biggest mafia in Utah, the New Car Dealers Board of Directors. So congratulations on that," said Tatton to thunderous applause during his recognition of KUSA/KASL.
Additional Awards handed out included quarter century recognition for USU Eastern, accepted by Chancellor Joe Petersen. The Outstanding Chamber Member of the Year Award was presented to Sutherland's Wayne Clausing, who just completed his sixth year with the board.
"In addition to the great items he donated to the silent auction, I want everyone to know that Wayne hand delivered that toilet," laughed Tatton.
The toilet was actually a bid item in Chamber's silent auction for Perkie Travel.
This year's community service award was presented to the United Way of Eastern Utah, accepted by Executive Director Bill Maikranz and Campaign Coordinator Carol Wright. Despite being the smallest United Way in the organization's worldwide group, the Eastern Utah Chapter services seven counties. Locally they serve the Angel Tree Program, Sub for Santa, Sun Center and Special Wishes. They also allocated over $40,000 during the past calendar year.
The "Thank you for your Service Award," was given Erin Needles of Peczuh Printing.
The evening's festivities took on a serious note as 20 year Carbon County Commissioner Mike Milovich and late Castle Valley media titan Tom Anderson were honored with the Contribution to the Community Award.
"Mike's first order of business after leaving the old country to become a commissioner was to make the county fiscally solvent and has fought long and hard to stop the construction of the Gooseberry Narrows Dam," said Tatton. "He has served on the CIB since 1896 and many of the community buildings in this area bear his finger prints. In all seriousness, we are honored and pleased to present Mike Milovich this award."
Moving on the late Eastern Utah Broadcasting owner, Tatton spoke about Tom Anderson's dedication.
"He always lived by the creed, 'We are a community radio station.' Tom was at the helm for over 40 years, donating hundreds of thousands of dollars of his business's air time and personal assets to the community."
Accepting the award was Tom's son and current EUB Executive Director Paul Anderson.
This year's board member of the year was Kerry Jensen of Service Master Restoration, accepted by his wife Frankie. The President's Choice Award was given to Ethan Migliori, by 2013 President Bobbi Ockey, who went over just how much Miglori has meant to the organization, filling in as the Chamber's 2012 president stepped down.

Findings and Purpose
Pub. L. 104–132, title III, § 301,Apr. 24, 1996, 110 Stat. 1247, provided that:
"(a) Findings.—The Congress finds that—
"(1) international terrorism is a serious and deadly problem that threatens the vital interests of the United States;
"(2) the Constitution confers upon Congress the power to punish crimes against the law of nations and to carry out the treaty obligations of the United States, and therefore Congress may by law impose penalties relating to the provision of material support to foreign organizations engaged in terrorist activity;
"(3) the power of the United States over immigration and naturalization permits the exclusion from the United States of persons belonging to international terrorist organizations;
"(4) international terrorism affects the interstate and foreign commerce of the United States by harming international trade and market stability, and limiting international travel by United States citizens as well as foreign visitors to the United States;
"(5) international cooperation is required for an effective response to terrorism, as demonstrated by the numerous multilateral conventions in force providing universal prosecutive jurisdiction over persons involved in a variety of terrorist acts, including hostage taking, murder of an internationally protected person, and aircraft piracy and sabotage;
"(6) some foreign terrorist organizations, acting through affiliated groups or individuals, raise significant funds within the United States, or use the United States as a conduit for the receipt of funds raised in other nations; and
"(7) foreign organizations that engage in terrorist activity are so tainted by their criminal conduct that any contribution to such an organization facilitates that conduct.
"(b) Purpose.—The purpose of this subtitle [subtitle A (§§ 301–303) of title III of Pub. L. 104–132, enacting this section and section 1189 of Title 8, Aliens and Nationality] is to provide the Federal Government the fullest possible basis, consistent with the Constitution, to prevent persons within the United States, or subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, from providing material support or resources to foreign organizations that engage in terrorist activities."

FORT DRUM For Army chaplain Capt. David L. Arthur, the chance to play with baseball legends in Cooperstown this weekend is the opportunity of a lifetime.
Im looking forward to getting out there a little bit and playing some ball, he said.
The West Monroe, La., native said he has played from T-ball all the way to Division I.
I just always remember playing, Capt. Arthur added.
Capt. Arthur is one of three soldiers who will represent the 10th Mountain Division at the Hall of Fame Classic today. The other two soldiers are 1st Lt. Jason T. Dighton and Sgt. 1st Class Jason King, who were not available this week to talk about the game.
This year is the first time the division has been invited to have representatives in the game, coinciding with the game occurring on Memorial Day weekend.
The three will be joined by a number of retired Major League Baseball players, including Rickey Henderson, Bob and Bret Boone, Phil Niekro and Goose Gossage.
Blake Helm and Robby Hisert, of the Military All-Star Team, will also be playing in the game. Rosters for the teams, managed by longtime pro skippers Cito Gaston and Bobby Cox, will be determined a few hours before the opening pitch.
Capt. Arthurs collegiate baseball career took him from Paris Junior College, Texas, to Louisiana Tech in Ruston, La.
The southpaw pitcher said his best pitch was a two-seam fastball, adding he was able to get into the low 90s in terms of miles per hour.
Graduating from the school in 1997, he would play a summer of independent league baseball before pursuing other interests. Attending seminary in New Orleans from 2001-04, when he played in casual adult leagues and coached young players, Capt. Arthur later joined the Army in late 2007. The chaplain said he mainly used his baseball experience to help with unit softball teams and coach youth league teams.
The three soldiers from post were picked following a tryout about three weeks ago, with Capt. Arthur hearing about it from his sergeant major.
Chappy, youve been playing ball forever right? Capt. Arthur remembered being asked.
Following a daylong tryout running through their fundamentals, he learned he made the team in an email a few days later.
Capt. Arthur said he hoped to get a shot on the mound, putting in a request to pitch during the game.
Thatd be nice, he said.
Capt. Arthur said he also looked forward to telling his teammates about the post, just to let them know how phenomenal our 10th Mountain Division folks are.
The three soldier-player contingency are not the only group going to the game from post.
The 10th Mountain Division band and Color Guard will take part in festivities around the game, and division Command Sgt. Maj. Rick Merritt will also be in attendance.
Organizers also distributed about 1,200 tickets for the game to the post for free.

A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 15-1), is
effective for proposals submitted, or due, on or after December 26, 2014. The PAPPG is consistent
with, and, implements the new Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit

the guidelines contained in NSF 15-1 apply to proposals submitted in response to this
funding opportunity.
A sustainable world is one in which human needs are met equitably without harm to the environment, and without sacrificing the ability of future generations to meet their needs. Growing evidence for the role of energy use in global change and awareness of limitations in our energy choices are motivating a search for pathways that are technologically innovative as well as environmentally and economically sustainable at all scales of energy usage. This is a grand challenge to the scientific community that cuts across disciplinary boundaries.
The creation of a secure and prosperous future for humanity depends on the contributions that science, engineering, and education will make towards building sustainable pathways to meet the energy needs of future generations. The dual roles of NSF - to support basic research and education - are ideally suited to stimulate vibrant science and engineering discovery and innovation efforts that will be needed to meet the challenge of building a sustainable energy future.
Sustainable Energy Pathways is part of the NSF-wide initiative on Science, Engineering, and Education for Sustainability (SEES). The Sustainable Energy Pathways solicitation calls for innovative, interdisciplinary basic research in science, engineering, and education by teams of researchers for developing systems approaches to sustainable energy pathways based on a comprehensive understanding of the scientific, technical, environmental, economic, and societal issues.
The SEP solicitation considers scalable approaches for sustainable energy conversion to useful forms, as well as its storage, transmission, distribution, and use. The following Topic Areas illustrate the broad scope of sustainable energy interest areas of this solicitation: Energy Harvesting & Conversion from Renewable Resources; Sustainable Energy Storage Solutions; Critical Elements & Materials for Sustainable Energy; Nature-Inspired Processes for Sustainable Energy Solutions; Reducing Carbon Intensity from Energy Conversion & Use; Sustainable Energy Transmission & Distribution; Energy Efficiency & Management.

A Workplace Without Borders
Over time, people across the world have self-organized themselves in a variety of ways. There are tribes, villages, towns and cities. Then there are city-states, nation-states and even empires.

The notion of city is morphing, including how it is structured and how it functions as a center of commerce. As they have done down through the ages, cities today are continuing to evolve.

ANAHEIM — Game day for the Corona del Mar High football team began inside the program's fieldhouse. Players rolled in at 9 a.m., much earlier than any game this year.
Saturday's game started at 2 p.m. and it wasn't just any game.
Before the Sea Kings boarded the bus for Angel Stadium to play in the CIF Southern Section Southern Division title game for the second straight year, they ate breakfast. At this point, Coach Scott Meyer said the nerves set in.
"It's a big game and a big stadium," Meyer said. "It must be one of those pre-game butterflies."
Getting a defensive touchdown on the first play from scrimmage can shake off the nerves for a coach trying to lead a team to back-to-back section titles.
As the defense has done throughout the playoffs, Meyer saw it set the tone for CdM early. The unit didn't record a fourth straight shutout in the postseason, but top-seeded CdM turned in another dominant performance in a 35-10 win against No. 3 Garden Grove in front of 6,878 fans.
Two years as the leader of the Sea Kings and Meyer has guided them to two section crowns.
Before this season, Meyer joked that CdM was destined to repeat. When the program wins section championships, it does so in consecutive years.
For someone who hasn't been around CdM that long, Meyer is well aware of the school's history. The last time CdM won two straight section titles, it also only gave up 10 points in the 1989 finale after blanking the first three postseason opponents.
When the players gathered for team pictures, some players yelled "Three-peat!" instead of cheese. No CdM team has claimed three consecutive section titles.
"We'll definitely talk about that," Meyer said of making another run. "We have a lot of work to do in the off-season. We're going to celebrate this one right now."
And rightfully so.
For the second year in a row, the Sea Kings closed out the year 12-2 and as Southern Division champions. They didn't need to sweat this championship game out like last year's 14-13 victory against Beckman.
Twelve seconds into this year's title tilt, CdM found the end zone. The points were the first for the Sea Kings in the first quarter of any postseason game.
Leave it to the defense to produce the touchdown.
On first down, the Argonauts came out with a play-action pass and linebacker Alex Moore made his normal drop. Moore wasn't the intended receiver on quarterback Angel Martinez's pass, but it sure looked like it.
Moore picked off the pass at the 30-yard line and he said all he could think about was getting into the end zone as fast as possible. Before racing in for a pick six, the junior side-stepped Martinez near the five-yard line.
The defense made it a long afternoon for Martinez – with defensive backs Brett Greenlee and Barrett Barbato picking off Martinez as well and linemen Tim Reinhardt and Greg Williford sacking him – and whoever handled the ball for Garden Grove (11-3).
While the Sea Kings' three-game shutout streak in the playoffs ended midway through the second quarter, the defense was responsible for 10 of CdM's points. Six points on the interception return for a touchdown and four points on two safeties.
"I think we peaked at the right time," said Moore, who finished with eight tackles and was part of a defense that only gave up one touchdown in the postseason.

Thousands of people signed to call for a posthumous government apology to the computer pioneer, Alan Turing, for the unfair treatment he received for being gay fifty-seven years after his death. Alan Turing was most famous for his code-breaking work at Bletchley Park during WWII, helping to create the Bombe that cracked messages enciphered with the German Enigma machines. However, after his coming out of closet as a gay in 1952, Turing was prosecuted for gross indecency. Even worse, he was given experimental chemical castration as a "treatment" and his security privileges were removed, which led to his unemployment. As a result of this "appalling" treatment, Turing killed himself two years later.
Although sexual prejudice remains widespread in the world, attitudes toward lesbians and gay men have become somewhat more accepting in recent years. At the same time, a growing body of sociological and psychological studies deal with the attitudes of heterosexuals toward homosexual behavior. Studies show that one important determinant of attitudes toward lesbians and gay men has been identified in personality variables such as authoritarianism, religiosity, and sex stereotypes. A further important factor is the national or cultural context as shown by the results of international surveys. For example, based on an international survey about attitudes toward homosexuality, the highest tolerance score was found for The Netherlands and the lowest for the Philippines and Chile (Kelley, 2001). Furthermore, psychological research also show that media has significant influence on people's attitude toward gay and lesbians (Levian et al, 2006).
While more and more people believe homosexuality is an acceptable lifestyle, some still violently object. The struggle for homosexual people to obtain visibility and representation in society is perhaps best embodied in the slogan that was popularized by the Queer Nation group in the 1990s, "We're here, we're queer, get used to it".

Really disappointed in the pathetic performance of Adam Jones. Don't know if the pressure got to him or it was just an ill timed slump but his performance in the series was embarrassing. Watching him strike out on 3 pitches in multiple at bats filled with flailing swings and misses was troubling for the future. Missing Jeter's gift triple in game 3 (which clearly effected the outcome of the game and the series) wasn't exactly a good sign either.
His lack of plate discipline really came back and bit him in the ass in this series. He was able to have a good season in spite of it so hopefully it won't bring his performance down too much in the future.

Nicol going great guns...
Strategic drop, that. Nicol score or gtfo
I think the whole point of Nicol is to be a bit like Lumb for England, and just swing from the hip. If the bowling's too good for him and he gets out then it doesn't matter much as long as he doesn't waste deliveries, and once in a blue moon it might come off if the bowling is poor. Someone forgot to tell Nicol this though I reckon.

Moeen is a perfectly fine bowler FFS
Argh, Nicol is sooooooo bad. Random slog, block, random slog, block. random slog, get out. South Africa must love seeing him walk out to the middle.
Gawd, Nicol is so awful to watch.
Actually, could stop that sentence at 'awful'. Also, was that number 69 on Phangiso's shirt? If so, congrats to him, he earns instant **** status.
Was that not a wide?
Says it all really.Doull: "Nicol really didn't have a clue"
It's interesting how much NZ's odds have shortened from the innings break, even though they've gotten off to a pretty sedate start and Nicol is still batting.

This goes along with Vincent's thread about Disney World.
What is everybody's favorite (or favorites) Disney Movies.
Personally I have 2 favorites
first is Pinocchio, Probably the best Disney animated feature. Some of the best characters, Amazing animation, and great story. One of the best
Gotta be careful with this one... Another favorite of mine is Song of The South.
Never legally released on home video in the US, due to what some say is "racist themes" that I, and a lot of other people don't see in the movie. I think it has the best Disney live action characters, The best animation, and it's mixed with live action ( this is 1946 here). I just love the story and the message in it.
I really like 'The Lion King' because of the mix of music and animation, same with 'The Jungle Book' as well. If the 'Studio Ghibli' films count, i'm a really a big fan of them as well.
I love junglebook, among many other disney films!
its the bear neccesities the simple bear neccesities forget about your worries and your strut, yeah man!
Who Framed Roger Rabbit!
Awesome. Billions of characters in it. :P
Who Framed Roger Rabbit is awesome!!!
i liked the lion king better
Hmm,I think Pinnochio is one of the best. It's one of the ones that is very complex: It's good alot of underlying themes that Kids probably never knew about when they saw it originally. And alot of images that stick in you're mind for a long time. I found the scene inwhich Lampwick,whiles he's playing pool,turns into a donke. That was HORRIFYING! And the little kids who been turned into a donkey being asked his name and screaming back in reply 'EBENEEZER!'. Thoughs things stick in you're mind for a long time,and I haven't seen Pinnochio for a very long time. But I think Dumbo is my favourite,though again,I haven't watched it since I was about 7. It's a really heartwarming film,and as a kid I really liked the Crows,though now I thinking they seem a bit like African-American stereotypes,and the view of African-Americans in the 40's. And the scene inwhich Dumbo is on top of a building in the Cirus and has to face his fears was really brilliant. Dumbo has to be my favourite. Though i've kind of grown out of those films unfornately,I still regard them as masterpieces.
It's too bad Disney don't make films like those anymore. I absolutely hate how they consider things like 'Meet the Robisons' and 'Homes on the range' Animated Classis,putting them in the same rank as REAL classics such as 'Snow white and the seven dwarfs' and 'The jungle book'
There's a lot for me...do not know
This one took me a while to think of and here it goes.
The Emperor's New Groove and The Lion King 1 1/2 and finally a film I guess most here never heard of before The Reluctant Dragon. That last film documents in a fun way how Disney animation was produced in the 1940s. All topped of by a short of the same name.It is great!!!
where have you seen the reluctant dragon, I have been looking for that forever.
Unless you did a little checking you would of found out it is apart of The Walt Disney Treasures Behind the scenes set http://www.amazon.com/Walt-Disney-Treasures-Behind-Scenes/dp/B00006II6P/ref=sr_1_1/181-7794161-6394634?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1274736833&sr=8-1
Does anyone like The Hunchback of Notre Dame? That's one of my favourites.
I like the one without lots of subliminal messages, Junglebook!
I like "Enchanted" cause the bad guys are SO close to winning!
Stupid good people.
I Like the old parent trap I Like the stop motion part at the beggening
i love cheese
You guys, I loved sleeping beauty.
i also have a few favourites
Toy Story 3
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Lion King
The Jungle Book
Peter Pan
The Incredibles
monsters inc.
I love all the Pixar films, but apart from that I think I would have to choose Aladdin and The Emperor's New Groove
Toy story for the win!
Aladdin is one of my favourites as well
Toy Story is my favourite movie, my favourite animated movie, my favourite Pixar movie and my favourite Disney movie.
The Little Mermaid is my favourite Disney Classic.
But i also love Toy Story 3, Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, Rapunzel, Tarzan, Cinderella, Finding Nemo, Ratatouille, The Aristocats, Cars, Sleeping Beauty and Mulan
toy story is good did you know there making a toy story 4 i cant believe it
are they?
Yes i can't believe it i hope they'll find the right story (after a end so epic).
that pretty much makes it official
i forgot The Emperor's New Groove!
mmasonghi studios - yeah a lot of people forget that one, I guess it's not a "typical" Disney film, but it sure is funny
My favorite disney movie is :
The Incredibles
Toy story 1,2,3
Monsters Inc
I like " Who Framed Roger Rabbit" ( That was partially Disney), But my absolute favorite is "The Great Mouse Detective". It has a great score ( Henry Mancini) great voices, ( like Vincent Price ) and a great story ( Based off of Sherlock Holmes stories and movies.) I also like the animated Robin Hood with all the animals. ( That one has some great voices in it too.) Me and my friends watch the classic Disneys all the time!
Here's a picture poster from the movie " The Great Mouse Detective".
probably something like toy story
I HATE DISNEY!!! since they started to make series in disney its been jank!they dont care about the quality any more they just care about the money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
or at least disney channel
I agree, Disney Chanel used to be such a cool channel but then it got completly ruined a few years ago!!
disney channel's rubbish but the films are alright
yeah maybe
dumbo, beauty and the beast, and the lion king
and also robin hood( animated)
I like toy story 1, does anyone like the beautiful Bo peep and her sheep?

A Tools Classroom
• combines activities specifically designed to promote self-regulation with activities that focus on academic skills, while also giving children the opportunity to practice self-regulation/executive function skills;
• ensures children meet state and national standards by emphasizing research-based activity content;
• promotes mature play—make-believe in preschool to dramatization in kindergarten—which is the most beneficial context for young children to develop self-regulation, cognitive, and social-emotional skills.
A Tools Teacher
• systematically scaffolds the development of students' self-regulation, from being "regulated by others" to engaging in "shared regulation" to becoming "masters of their own behavior";
• teaches early literacy and mathematics, with an emphasis on building underlying cognitive competencies, such as reflective thinking and metacognition.
A Tools Student
• gains control of their social, emotional, and cognitive behaviors by learning how to use a variety of mental tools;
• practices self-regulated learning throughout the day by engaging in a variety of specifically designed, developmentally appropriate self-regulation activities;
• learns to regulate their own behaviors, as well as the behaviors of their friends, as they enact increasingly more complex scenarios in their imaginary play in preschool and in learning activities in kindergarten.
At Tools, we often hear from parents, teachers, and school administrators about how well children in the Tools preschool and kindergarten programs are doing. Districts implementing Tools show fewer reports of student disruptive behavior, higher levels of parent satisfaction, and fewer discipline problems. Teachers report less aggression and fighting, and more positive social interactions.
Dana Hice DePugh, Supervisor of Special Education
"I can't begin to explain the positive impact this curriculum has had on our students, at both the preschool and kindergarten level. …Students who entered the program with very little ability to focus and self-regulate are now able to participate in dramatic play activities for extended periods of time. Some of our three-year-old students who previously had extensive developmental delays are writing their names, creating play plans, and even demonstrating phonemic awareness through the use of the sound map. …Tools has influenced the lives of our early childhood students in a very constructive way with regard to academic, readiness, social and emotional, and adaptive skills."
Laura, Parent
"I am writing this letter in support of the curriculum Tools of the Mind, that is currently implemented at my child's Head Start center. I have had all three of my children progress through the Head Start program and have been very happy with the results of all three children. I can tell you, though, that there was a vast difference in kindergarten readiness between my oldest son, Hagen, who did not have Tools of the Mind at his Head Start, compared to the level of readiness that we encountered with my oldest daughter, Isabella, that did have the benefit of the Tools of the Mind curriculum. Our daughter Isabella was not only ready for kindergarten, but her academic skills surpassed those of her peers, thus resulting in Isabella being defined as gifted and talented. Don't get me wrong, I am happy with the success of all my children, but I do find that the enriched learning experience that Isabella received as a result of Tools of the Mind curriculum immensely aided in Isabella achieving her kindergarten goals. I currently have my youngest daughter, Birdie, in the Head Start program. She is receiving the benefit of the Tools of the Mind curriculum and because of this, I have high hopes regarding her future academic endeavors. I consider it a blessing in my children's lives that they are able to partake in such a fantastic and academically enriching curriculum and I hope that future generations of Head Start children will have the same opportunity as my children did. All children deserve the best opportunity possible to excel in both their academic careers and for their own self-worth, and it is my strong belief that Tools of the Mind gives each child that advantage."
