Chuck Hagel's obviously solid connections to the Establishment's Insiders — his membership in the Council on Foreign Relations and his promotion of an internationalist foreign policy in the CFR's Foreign Affairs magazine — are not receiving the attention they deserve.
Charles Timothy (Chuck) Hagel started life in North Platte, Nebraska, in 1946. He served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War alongside his brother. Both were wounded when a Claymore mine exploded near them and both received decorations, one given to Chuck for saving his brother's life.
From 1971 to 1977, he served on the staff of Republican U.S. Representative John McCollister. McCollister's earned anywhere from 20 to 60 percent in the "Conservative Index," a congressional scorecard now published by The New American under the name "Freedom Index." For the next three years, he was a lobbyist in Washington. He supported Ronald Reagan's bid for president and was awarded with the job of Deputy Administrator of the Veterans Administration. He left that post in 1982 to join with others in forming a cellphone company that was very successful. Sold to AT&T in 1998 for $1.5 billion, Hagel's share of that transaction made him a millionaire.
In 1992, he returned to Nebraska, where he won election to the U.S. Senate in 1996 and was reelected in 2002. During his 12 years in the Senate, his percent scores in the "Conservative Index"/"Freedom Index" were generally in the 40s, 50s, and 60s.
In 2000, the Annual Report of the world-government-promoting Council on Foreign Relations listed him for the first time as a member. His CFR membership has continued ever since.
In its July/August 2004 issue, the CFR's Foreign Affairs published Hagel's essay entitled "A Republican Foreign Policy." It contains:

Representative Eric J. Massa of New York is lashing out at the Democratic Party. Last week Massa announced his retirement citing the return of cancer as the reason for the departure, but also leaves amidst a sexual harassment charge from a male aide. In a later radio interview Massa claimed Democratic Party leaders drove him out of office because he did not support health care legislation although the party has dismissed Massa's assertions.
Given the changing reasons for his retirement blaming his Party could just be an excuse or an attempt to mask the scandal surrounding him. New work on blame and excuse making adds a formerly unstudied dimension to the study of interpersonal relations: locus of control. Wang and Anderson (2006) studied internals and externals asking them to judge excuses and assign blame. They found that externals tended to use excuses more and assigned less blame for cases of cheating and lying relative to internals. Externals also assigned more blame to others and less to themselves and were more sensitive to being blamed. Making excuses then may be less a calculated effort to shift blame and more a result of one's general outlook on the social world.

Read: Who Is Marek Hrivik?
The Rangers signed winger Marek Hrivik earlier in the offseason after a big post season in Hartford with the Whale.
On Hrivik, Jeff Gorton said during a chat on the team's website, "He was able to get into the mix a little earlier. he found some chemistry and took off from there. He was a nice find for us. He ran with it and earned a contract because of it."
Gordie Clark said of Hrivik in a video on the Rangers website, "Here's a guy that scored 38 goals two years ago and 32 goals last year, missing 20 games. So we've always kept an eye on him. Our Quebec scout Daniel Dorey had an eye on him and my western scout Ernie Gere was going through. I said, will you take a look at this guy when you're going through. I had gone up to see him after Daniel talked about and then I said Ernie you keep an eye on him. He liked him and so then we took a shot at him at the end of the season. He's a well rounded player, he always works. He doesn't wanna dump a puck in that's what I love about him. He loves to hold onto it, take a hit, but make a play and like I said he scored 38 and 32 so the goals don't surprise me at all."
Hrivik, 20, is 6-2, 185.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate community editor
As gasoline and diesel fuel continue to rise in price (while it is a little stalmated right now the future only holds higher costs) everyone that transports anything knows that at some point something will have to give.
While private enterprise can charge more for goods or passage, governmental entities have nowhere to go to get the money for transportation other than to the taxpayer. The taxpayer, however, are themselves becoming strapped for cash to pay for their own way to work.
In particular, school districts will be hard hit as the cost of fuel rises. They not only have to transport students back and forth to school (a formidible task when one considers everything that can go wrong) but they also have to take care of activity transport.
Each year the Carbon County School Board struggles with what to do about transportation for activities. Most people think of sports teams when they think of transporting students, but there are many more kinds of activities, clubs, and school programs that need transport for one event or another. How the district juggles these types of requests always comes under scrutiny and consequently criticism.
There are probably some things that could be done to consolidate and hold costs down that aren't being done now, but those actions are not under the control of the school board or even anyone in Carbon County. Consolidation of schedules in sports, holding events so that a number of school districts can team up on transportation and other schemes could probably save not only money, but possibly valuable class time as well. However scheduling of athletic events, debate meets, drama competitions, etc. are up to those who run leagues and competitions. Most of the people who do that live in areas where a bus never goes more than 15 miles one way to a league game or 30 miles to a yearly drama competition.
As one of the Carbon School District's board members put it at a meeting not long ago, "When you live in a rural area, you'd better plan on traveling if you are going to compete."
This year the school district will gain some money by not having to transport teams from East Carbon High to the hinterlands of the state. It's interesting to note that the smallest schools in the state (1A schools) have always had the farthest to travel for competition despite the fact there are more schools in that classification than any other. Three to four hour bus rides, one way for 1A teams are not uncommon; some even stretch to eight or nine hours. So it goes for the little guys on the block.
But the cost of fuel could well change the way districts have to do business. Obviously it is much less expensive to transport 70 football players on a bus than it would be to put them in cars and drive them to a game. Statistically, and realistically as well, it is also much safer.
But what about breaking the bank. What happens if diesel reaches five or six bucks a gallon? How will districts keep up? How will leagues and competitions have to change to accomodate the realities of a limited checkbook?
At that point the whole idea of inter-school competition, whether it will be with a basketball or a chess set, could change for good.

Each State in which all or part of a Moderate Area is located shall submit, according to the applicable schedule under paragraph (2), an implementation plan that includes each of the following:
(A) For the purpose of meeting the requirements of section 7502 (c)(5) of this title, a permit program providing that permits meeting the requirements of section 7503 of this title are required for the construction and operation of new and modified major stationary sources of PM–10.
(B) Either
(i) a demonstration (including air quality modeling) that the plan will provide for attainment by the applicable attainment date; or
(2) Schedule for plan submissions
A State shall submit the plan required under subparagraph (1) no later than the following:
(A) Within 1 year of November 15, 1990, for areas designated nonattainment under section 7407 (d)(4) of this title, except that the provision required under subparagraph (1)(A) shall be submitted no later than June 30, 1992.
(b) Serious Areas
(1) Plan provisions
In addition to the provisions submitted to meet the requirements of paragraph [1] (a)(1) (relating to Moderate Areas), each State in which all or part of a Serious Area is located shall submit an implementation plan for such area that includes each of the following:
(A) A demonstration (including air quality modeling)—
(i) that the plan provides for attainment of the PM–10 national ambient air quality standard by the applicable attainment date, or
(ii) for any area for which the State is seeking, pursuant to section 7513 (e) of this title, an extension of the attainment date beyond the date set forth in section 7513 (c) of this title, that attainment by that date would be impracticable, and that the plan provides for attainment by the most expeditious alternative date practicable.
(2) Schedule for plan submissions
A State shall submit the demonstration required for an area under paragraph (1)(A) no later than 4 years after reclassification of the area to Serious, except that for areas reclassified under section 7513 (b)(2) of this title, the State shall submit the attainment demonstration within 18 months after reclassification to Serious. A State shall submit the provisions described under paragraph (1)(B) no later than 18 months after reclassification of the area as a Serious Area.
(c) Milestones
(1) Plan revisions demonstrating attainment submitted to the Administrator for approval under this subpart shall contain quantitative milestones which are to be achieved every 3 years until the area is redesignated attainment and which demonstrate reasonable further progress, as defined in section 7501 (1) of this title, toward attainment by the applicable date.
(2) Not later than 90 days after the date on which a milestone applicable to the area occurs, each State in which all or part of such area is located shall submit to the Administrator a demonstration that all measures in the plan approved under this section have been implemented and that the milestone has been met. A demonstration under this subsection shall be submitted in such form and manner, and shall contain such information and analysis, as the Administrator shall require. The Administrator shall determine whether or not a State's demonstration under this subsection is adequate within 90 days after the Administrator's receipt of a demonstration which contains the information and analysis required by the Administrator.
(3) If a State fails to submit a demonstration under paragraph (2) with respect to a milestone within the required period or if the Administrator determines that the area has not met any applicable milestone, the Administrator shall require the State, within 9 months after such failure or determination to submit a plan revision that assures that the State will achieve the next milestone (or attain the national ambient air quality standard for PM–10, if there is no next milestone) by the applicable date.
(d) Failure to attain
In the case of a Serious PM–10 nonattainment area in which the PM–10 standard is not attained by the applicable attainment date, the State in which such area is located shall, after notice and opportunity for public comment, submit within 12 months after the applicable attainment date, plan revisions which provide for attainment of the PM–10 air quality standard and, from the date of such submission until attainment, for an annual reduction in PM–10 or PM–10 precursor emissions within the area of not less than 5 percent of the amount of such emissions as reported in the most recent inventory prepared for such area.
(e) PM–10 precursors
The control requirements applicable under plans in effect under this part for major stationary sources of PM–10 shall also apply to major stationary sources of PM–10 precursors, except where the Administrator determines that such sources do not contribute significantly to PM–10 levels which exceed the standard in the area. The Administrator shall issue guidelines regarding the application of the preceding sentence.
[1] So in original. Probably should be "subsection".

Warwick will look to make a big splash this weekend when it takes on 7-1 La Salle on Friday night at 6 p.m. at Thayer Arena. La Salle beat Warwick 5-0 in the first game of the season on Dec. 7.

Comments about Kuhl Clothing Flight Jacket (Women's):
I use this Flight Jacket daily. If it's cold outside I'll put it on and find myself wearing it the rest of the day, even in class, just because it is so comfortable. I also use it for when I go horse back riding in the fall and winter. Recently, I used it as a layer for my back packing and camping trip. It is nice having a jacket that keeps you both comfortable and protected from cold temps. The Flight Jacket made from Kuhl allows me to easily move around in all that I do. The zip in hood was great for my back packing trip. The thumb holes are great for horse back riding, allowing the reigns to be easy to grasp, also keeping my hands warm. The Jacket is great all around.

Best Uses
Comments about Kuhl Clothing Flight Jacket (Women's):
I was given this jacket as a gift and LOVE it! It is soft and stylish. Love the cut of the jacket and the thumbholes. Sadly, it just does not fit me right. I am 5'9" and have a small frame so the jacket fit me almost too well for a jacket, even though it was a medium and I ALWAYS wear a small. The biggest problem was the sleeves were just too short! They hit right at my wrist so using the thumbholes was very uncomfortable. I tried on a large and it was gigantic! I hated having to take it back but it was just too bothersome. Hopefully Kuhn pays attention to their reviews and makes some adjustments in their sizing. It seems to be a common issue with them.

Karma: A Love Story
"Karma", loosely based on William Shakespeare's "Romeo & Juliet", is a tale of love, betrayal, and friendship. "Karma" explores love and how it can easily lead to hatred and the human need for revenge to ease the pain of a broken heart. It's a story of two friends, one rich and one poor, who both live in Guyana. They both fall in love with the same girl, unbeknownst to the other. Many years later love brings them together again, but the hatred they have for each other overpowers that love and brings forth tragedy.

In the face of an uncertain economy, and the government's efforts to tighten gun control, gun and ammunition sales are rising.
CNN has recently reported gun shops across the country are running out of ammunition as people worry the Obama administration will increase taxes on bullets or introduce new gun-control measures.
"People are buying cases or whatever they can get their hands on and putting it away," says Richard Taylor, manager of The Firing Line, a gun shop and shooting range in the Denver area, quoted by the news organization.
He added " it's gotten very, very difficult to find ammunition" in the last two months.
Meanwhile, according to a recent article in Time Magazine, the nation is also seeing a boom in gun sales. Quoting SportsOneSource, a research firm that tracks the sporting goods industry, it says firearms sales in large retail outlets have increased by 39 percent this year
This also comes at a time when fewer Americans support gun control laws.
A recent CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll found that while in 2001 some 54 percent favored stricter regulations, the number has fallen to 39 percent today.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
If there is a gala event that takes place in Carbon County, the annual College of Eastern Utah Founders Day dinner and awards has to rank up there with any of them.
And on this past Saturday night, it was as good as at anytime in the past.
With the Jennifer Leavitt Student Center ballroom decked out, well over 200 people showed up to eat dinner and watch an awards program that included a lot of familiar faces, both from the present and the past.
With academic vice president Brad King presiding over the first half of the awards, a number of people were honored for their dedication in both time and money that they have given to the college.
Honored for their dedication and help were Judge Paul Keller and his wife Flora, Todd Olsen, Michelle Cooper Fleck, Mary Helen Powell and her later husband James, and Anna and Bertis L. Embry. But the awards weren't all serious either.
"I really hesitated to take on introducing everyone in this area of honor when I found out Mary Helen was going to be here," King told the audience. "The reason is that when she worked here she had a tendency to always carry a pair or scissors to events like this, and then cut off peoples ties. The one I am wearing tonight is a good one and I don't want to lose it."
Founders Day is also the day that the college inducts someone into the CEU Athletic Hall of Fame each year. This year the inductee was George Thomas Burr, a great athlete in football and track in the early 1950's at Carbon College. He went on to play football at BYU and had a long coaching career at a couple of schools, but spent most of his over 30 years in education at Green River High School.
"I am glad I can call Tom Burr my friend," said Jack Kobe, a well known retired coach in the Carbon area himself as he presented the award to Burr.
The college also presented awards to outstanding alumni as well. Those awards went to Jayceen Craven Walker, a well known actress, singer and education activist in the state of Utah, Alene Etzel Bentley, a Carbon native who has excelled in public relations, and worked for Congressman Jim Matheson and is presently employed by Utah Power and Light, and Dr. George Hatsis, a retired dentist whose career achievements include the design and development of dental equipment and innovative procedures along with major philanthropic and humanitarian projects.
CEU President Ryan Thomas spoke about each of the honorees and gave detailed backgrounds about their activities over the years.
Finally Thomas gave out the Eagle Award to Deb Svetich Dull who is the director of Utah Power's community relation program for the Carbon, Emery, Grand and San Juan counties. Dull has been instrumental in the success of many community projects and events in the area.

Mobile Ammonites Stayed Put at Plains Methane Seeps
by AMNH on
Research led by Museum scientists shows that ammonites, an extinct type of shelled mollusk that's closely related to modern-day nautiluses and squids, made homes in the unique environments surrounding methane seeps in the seaway that once covered America's Great Plains. The findings, recently published in the journal Geology, provide new insights into the mode of life and habitat of these ancient animals.
In the Black Hills region of South Dakota, researchers are investigating a 74-million-year-old mound of fossilized material where methane-rich fluids once migrated through the sediments onto the sea floor. When the face of this cliff recently slumped off, a wide variety of bivalves, sponges, corals, fish, crinoids, and, as recently documented, ammonites, were revealed.
Celebrate Earth Day From Outer Space
by AMNH on
Join the Museum's annual celebration of Earth Day with Spaceship Earth on Thursday, April 19. This Hayden Planetarium program takes viewers across the planet's verdant hills and blue oceans and into space to view Earth as only astronauts have seen it. Director of Astrovisualization Carter Emmart will guide the tour using the Museum's Digital Universe Atlas, an authentic 3D map of the cosmos that uses satellite data as recent as three hours old to digitally reconstruct the universe. Emmart recently answered a few questions about the experience.
Why is it important to take a look at Earth's place in the universe?
Carter Emmart: Earth Day was a direct result of the first images acquired by astronauts viewing our home from the humbling distance of the Moon. One planet, ours, in space, alive with life and color, covered mostly by water and a dynamic atmosphere with constantly shifting clouds, and all this seen from our national goal of reaching the Moon, our nearest neighbor, lifeless, without color or water, and without atmosphere. Regardless of how fascinating the rest of the planets, moons, and asteroids are, ours is paradise. We are part of this world, and our survival goes hand in hand with it. We respond to its beauty as we respond to any beautiful landscape filled with color, form, and the dynamics of nature. Our Earth Day celebration is a moment to sit back and revere our planet and our existence.

Tracking Asteroids with Richard Binzel
by AMNH on
Space dust and asteroid fragments reach Earth's surface every day, but only rarely do extraterrestrial objects cause serious harm. Scientists use increasingly precise technology to track near-Earth objects and gauge if a Cretaceous-style collision could be on the horizon. At the forefront of this research is MIT professor Richard Binzel, whose Museum lecture Asteroids: Friends or Foes? on Monday, April 16, evaluates the threat of asteroids and makes a case for how they might actually be useful to humans. Binzel recently answered a few questions about his research.
Creatures of Light: Inside the Studio
by AMNH on
Months before the opening of Creatures of Light on March 31, a team of preparators at the Museum began developing custom models of glowing organisms that light up the exhibition. Director of Exhibition Design Michael Meister and other members of the Exhibition Department share how they conduct visual research for these unique models, work with curators to make them scientifically accurate, and meet the various lighting challenges of creating an exhibition about bioluminescence.

Tampa, Florida -- Imagine the anger you would have if you learned the United States knew in advance about the terror attacks on 9/11, and could have prevented them, but it decided to do nothing.
Some are saying the country is vulnerable to a much more catastrophic incident that will alter every American's life, but the government is ignoring the threat... as well as the simple fix to protect us all.
Faced with no power, no computers, no gas: that'swhat some New York and New Jerseyresidents had to deal with for days and weeks because of Super Storm Sandy.
Now imagine an event that would affect the power supply of the entire country not for days, but for months.
"People will die"
Former CIA Bureau Chief Claire Lopez says if that happened "Within one year, it is estimated that 9/10 of all Americans would be dead."
Lopez, an intelligence expert, says the country is facing a major threat that could knock out all the power for an extended period.
According to Lopez "People will die if the power goes out for an extended period." Lopez says those who dependon medical services will be affected first.
Someone like Richard Jackson, who was diagnosed with ALS in 2008, could not live without sustained power.
Jackson's wife Mae, who cares for him around the clock, says "He is totally dependent on the ventilator."
If the power is gone, Mae Jackson says they have a generator which will runnine days on propane they have stored.
"Once that goes, then I fall on the batteries which would give me about nine hours." That means he can exist for nine days and nine hours. Past that, and Jackson is in trouble.
And if there was no place to go to for power, not only is Jackson in trouble, but so is the entire country.
EMP Events
Representative Cliff Sterns (R) says "The devastation would benine out 10 Americans would be affected by this.
Sterns is talking about an Electro Magnetic Pulse, or EMP event, which very few people are aware of. However the Federal EMP Commission says the United States is at risk from an EMP attack that could be generated one of two ways.
It could be launched by a low level nuclear missile that would explode over the atmosphere. There is a concern nations like Iran or North Korea, which have the technology, could do something like that. There is also a worry that terrorists could launch such a missile.
The second threat comes froma solar flare like the ones that NASA and other scientists could occur in 2013.
Either one of those methods would destroy all microchips or plunge the country into a time before electricity was invented.
Sterns says, "People talk about EMP and they think it is science fiction.But it is here today and it can occur."
Representative Yvette Clarke (D)warns, "It's the difference between life as we know it today and a whole new way of life."
Clarke is on the Homeland Security committee and she has seen classified documentation that makes her believe the EMP threat is more than science fiction. She calls it, " An inevitable threat."
The effects of such an event would be devastating as anything that runs on a computer chip -- from cars, to banking, to gas stations -- would no longer operate and America as we know know it would no longer exist.
Lopez says, "This means there will be no more food in the supermarkets.They will be cleaned out in days." Lopez adds, "There will be no more deliveries of gasoline, you will not be able to get around by car."
Physics professor Dr. Michael Frankel, the executive director of the EMP Commission, has been urging Congress to take action now or the country faces a catastrophic risk.
Frankel says, "Imagine going for many months without an electric power and an awful lot of people are going to die if that happens." Frankel warns, "I think all of us realize this could occur at anytime."
Florida is particularly vulnerable, because the state can only receive power from the electric grid one way, from the north. If the path is destroyed, Florida goes dark for months.
Cheap and simple solution ignored
Sterns and others are frustrated that Congress has failed to act on a simple plan to protect the county with what's called "Faraday cages" around major transmission lines.
Clarke says part of the problem is many of her fellow House and Senate members are in denial. She says, "I really think it has to do with a lack of wanting to believe it is real."
But experts say while the threat is real, the solution would cost less than a one-time fee of $5 for electric customers.
Lopez says it makes no sense to avoid the fix. "It's a very small amount to the individual electric consumer customerone time, and it's protected."
That's why Mae Jackson, who uses her faith to help her cope with her husband's ALS and understands how critical electricity is, can't understand why Congress isn't moving forward to protect Americans from an EMP event.
Jackson says, "Politicians, Congress... they don't need to drag their feet when it comes to life, sustaining life."
Because if nothing is done before an EMP event, sustaining life will be impossible for many... and it will be too late to help them when the lights go out.
Two years ago, the House unanimously passed a bill that would have protected the electric grid, but it died in the Senate.
While Democrat Yvette Clark and Republican Trent Franks are pushing a new bill, many in Congress don't place it high on their agenda... even though last week there was a solar flare powerful enough to knock out the grid, but it missed Earth.
Clarke says it is hard to convince people to do something about a potential disaster until after it happens and it is too late. Clark suggests anyone concerned about an EMP event contact their representative and ask what they are doing about it.

The Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air's Apple AirPlay compatibility makes it an important part of your home wireless network. It can wirelessly connect with any Wi-Fi® enabled device that uses iTunes® — such as an iPod touch, laptop, or iPhone. And because AirPlay can support multiple speaker systems simultaneously, you can have two or more G-17 Airs in different rooms all playing music from your computer, for example. Crutchfield Advisor Kramer tried it out, and shares his observations.
Video Transcript
So I got to spend the summer with the Klipsch G-17 AirPlay speaker system. It was a real treat actually. Really blew me away in terms of sound quality, you know, for a fairly compact size. The side ports really give you some deep, authentic bass, and the clarity of the sound is really something that you'll notice right away.
I'm an Apple guy and love using AirPlay, so it was the perfect companion to my iPhone and iPad, being able to stream whatever music I had, whatever content I wanted to listen to wirelessly to the speaker. Also very portable, so I could take it from my office to the living room, take it out to the porch. If I'm cooking out for the summertime, I can listen to music all afternoon — so very easy to set up.
The remote control allows you to switch songs, change volume, change sources. And when I brought it back in, plugged into my computer, you can listen to audio directly through the USB as well. It is wall-mountable and the speaker grille does come off, so if you want sort of a lower footprint option for a hideaway space it works very nicely as well, so really a nice piece to consider for the house.
If you have any questions about this or anything else please give a friendly Crutchfield advisor a call.
