A "Day In with Thomas" fun at Blakesburg Public Library
Thirteen young train enthusiasts attended a special "Day in With Thomas" event at the Blakesburg Public Library Saturday, June 20th. Participants enjoyed two stories about Thomas the Tank engine, and his friends; watched a video,completed a cut and glue Thomas the Tank Engine craft activity, had a snack and enjoyed playing with some trains, featuring Thomas and his friends.
Father-Daughter Dance a huge success !!
Ninety young ladies, accompanied by their doting dads attended the Blakesburg Public Library's Annual Father-Daughter Dance at the Blakesburg Elementary Attendance Center gymnasium Saturday evening. The dance provided a wonderful night for girls to dress up with Dad for a night of fun and making memories that will last a lifetime.
The library staff and library board would like to thank the EBF Schools for allowing us to use the gymnasium for the dance venu, the Friends of the Blakesburg Library and individual members of the Friends group, who helped with providing refreshments, and everyone who helped with set-up and clean-up. Also thanks to the Blakesburg Christian Church Youth Group for providing a wonderful dinner opportunity for the dads and daughters before the dance.
A big thank you to everyone who attended and showed their support for the library. We very much appreciate the support of our event and of our community.
Milestone reached: More than 4,200 books now listed in library's online catalog !!
On Saturday, March 28, 2015 the library staff reached a milestone of adding 4,000 books to the online catalog. Now we have an additional 200 items cataloged. The library's card catalog can be accessed at the following web address: www.librarything.com/catalog/BlakesburgLibrary. Patrons can search by subject, author or title to see what books the library owns. In addition, the results can be listed in a variety of ways, and books can be sorted by the year of publication. The catalog also provides book reviews and recommends read-alike titles/authors. Be sure to check out the catalog, which is available on the web 24/7.
Library receives donation of toys and DVDs
We have the best patrons and community in the world. On Saturday, I received a call asking if we would accept some toys. A couple were downsizing and getting rid of toys that their grand and great-grandchildren had played with. Of course we will -- our preschool class visits the library every Friday morning and they love playing with the toys as much as looking at books and working on puzzles.
We had a family in last night playing a game of Clue -- reading and using deductive logic to solve the murder mystery. Also last night, we received a gift of 80 DVDs. The toys are already on the shelves waiting for someone to play with them -- the DVDs will be processed and ready for checkout soon.
At this point of our fiscal year (July 1 - June 30), our library has received books and video donations that would have cost around $6,000 if we had had to purchase them -- this includes some great children's, young adult, and adult fiction, and videos for kids, teens and adults.
We LOVE the way the community supports the library. If you donate an item that we already own, we may add it to the collection because of its popularity, or we may put it in our book sale so we can use the proceeds to purchase more materials or help with programs for the public. Either way, every gift helps. Be sure to let us know if there are any services the library can provide to help you or your organization !!

Alliant Energy Foundation Grant to fund new technology programs at Blakesburg Public Library !
Lego and gaming competitions are just two of the planned activities that will be taking place during the EBF Rockets B.L.A.S.T. O.F.F. (Blakesburg Library After School Technology Opportunities for Fun with Friends) Program in the coming new year. The B.L.A.S.T. O.F.F. and A.C.T. (Adult Computing Technologies) Programs will be largely funded with a $2000 Alliant Energy Foundation Grant. The library was notified December 1st that it was awarded the grant in the Foundation's latest grant cycle. The grant process was highly competitive, so the library feels very fortunate and is grateful to the Alliant Energy Foundation for this award.
The library is planning a series of after-school activities for children, teens, and adults using technology. In addition to gaming and Lego building competitions, these activities will include classes for youth and/or adults on using tablets for internet research, and reading the library's downloadable e-books, classes on using various computer software applications, e-mail, and social networking programs, and education about energy and environment, along with other STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) activities.
The B.L.A.S.T. O.F.F. and A.C.T. programs will begin in January or February 2015. Additional information and a schedule of program activities and events will be posted on the library's web page ( www.blakesburg.lib.ia.us ) and on its Facebook page.
Also coming in the next year will be an open house to introduce new children's books purchased with the Libri Foundation Grant funds (with the help of the Friends of the Blakesburg Public Library organization), a Crock Pot Cook-Off event, a "Day In with Thomas" for young train enthusiasts, and a "Disney Princess Tea Party" for fans of Disney princesses.
The library provides computers and wi-fi access, printing, photocopying, FAX service, and access to thousands of books, videos, 14 magazine subscriptions, two newspapers, and online databases including EBSCOHost, Learning Express and ABC Mouse.

For more information, contact Library Director Cheryl Talbert at 641 777-0048 or e-mail email@example.com
Libri Foundation Grant books have arrived -- will be ready to check out soon !!
The Blakesburg Public Library was among 72 libraries nationwide to receive a Libri Foundation grant, which will provide new children's books for the library. Thank you so much to the Friends of the Blakesburg Public Library, which is providing our portion of the matching funds grant ($350), and The Libri Foundation, which is is doubling our portion with a $700 contribution. In addition, the library received another $350 worth of math and science books thanks to a personal donation, bringing a total $1,450 worth of new hardcover children and young adult books to our library collection. The library joins nine other Iowa libraries in being awarded the Library Foundation grant this cycle, and 13 more Iowa libraries that are 2014 Libri Foundation grant recipients. To learn more about the Libri Foundationand its Books for Children Program which provides grants for children's books to small, rural libraries across the United States, check out its web site at http://www.librifoundation.org .
Computers/wi-fi available at the Library
The library now has seven public access computers for patrons to use following the purchase of three computers with funds from the Wapello County Supervisors, and a donation of two more computers to go along with an existing computer. The donation from the county supervisors was to help provide youth with internet access on the computers for educational and recreational purposes. The library has six computers in the main library space, and one computer in the quiet area of the library. In addition, the library has a new wi-fi printer. The printer software has been installed on each of the new computers so patrons will be able to print from any computer. Scanning, photocopy, and FAX service is also be available.

The Blakesburg Public Library has received the gift of a dozen magazine subscriptions. Some of the titles have already been arriving in the library's mail. A variety of interests, genders and ages are included in the gift subscriptions. New titles include: Automobile, Boys Life, Country Living, Girls Life, Good Housekeeping, Jack & Jill, Kiplinger's Personal Finance, Outdoor Life, Prevention, Redbook, Scholastic Parent and Child, and Woman's Day.
Library awarded Libri Foundation Grant
The Blakesburg Public Library was among 72 libraries nationwide to be awarded a Libri Foundation Books for Children Grant during the most recent funding cycle. The 2-to-1 matching grant is being matched locally by the Friends of the Blakesburg Public Library. It's $350 contribution will be doubled by the Libri Foundation ($700) so the library will be able to purchase $1050 worth of new hardcover, quality books for the children's and young adult collections.
The library joins nine other Iowa libraries in being awarded the Libri Foundation grant this cycle, and 13 more Iowa libraries that are 2014 Libri Foundation Books for Children Grant recipients. Grant documents will be arriving at the Blakesburg Public Library during the week of Sept. 22, and the new books will be ordered shortly thereafter. The library will plan an Open House to showcase the new materials once they have been processed.
The Libri Foundation was established in 1989 for the sole purpose of helping rural libraries acquire new, quality, hard-cover children's books tghey could not otherwise afford to buy. Since October 1990, the Foundation has donated over $5.8 million worth of new children's books to more than 3,300 libraries in all 50 states. The Blakesburg Public Library was previously a grant recipient in 2005 and 2008.
The Foundation supports the concept that children who learn to enjoy reading at an early age continue to read throughout their lives. In order to develop a love of reading, children must have access to books which stretch their imaginations, touch their emotions, and expand their horizons.
For many children in rural areas, the local public library is often their primary source of reading material. Many rural schools either have no library or the library is inadequate to meet the needs of the students. At a time when more and more children and their parents and teachers are using the public library, these same libraries are facing increasing financial hardships and are unable to buy the books their young readers need.
The Foundation works with libraries' Friends groups or other organizations because it believes in community involvement and encourages and rewards local support of libraries. The Friends or other sponsors can contribute from $200 to $350, which the Foundation matches on a 2-to-1 ratio. Thus, a library can receive up to $1050 worth of new, quality hardcover children's books through the Foundation's Books for Children's program. To learn more about the Friends of the Blakesburg Public Library, or to join the organization, contact President Bill Hinshaw, Treasurer Judy Reidel, or Librarian Cheryl Talbert.
Talbert has more than two decades of academic library experience and has been the director at Blakesburg since April. Assistant/Substitute Librarian Chris Johnson, retired library associate at the Blakesburg Elementary Attendance Center, also brings more than 20 years of experience to the Blakesburg Public Libray. These local librarians, familiar with the needs of the library and the community, will select the books the library will receive from the Foundation's 600-title booklist, which has been highly praised by participating librarians for the quality and variety of fiction and nonfiction titles offered. The majority of books have been published within the last three years, but old favorites are also offered. All of the books have been highly recommended by recognized authorities in the library and education fields.
The books donated through the Books for Children's program can be used for storytelling, toddler, preschool and after-school programs; summer reading programs; "book buddy" programs in which older children read to younger children; holiday programs; teacher check-out and curriculum support; early childhood development programs; school projects; and to just provide children with a "good read."

Soothe indigestion, nausea and other stomach conditions with the help of gentle herbs.
Drink this homemade herbal tea before meals to avoid indigestion.
Have a headache? Instead of reaching for that bottle of ibuprofen, try one of these natural remedies...
Discover tips for growing mint, including how to harvest and use it.
Caraway and peppermint oils may work together to relieve the discomfort of indigestion, a recent study shows.
The majority of forty-five people who participated in the study—all regular sufferers of indigestion—were greatly relieved after taking a combination of oils of caraway (Carum carvi) and peppermint (Mentha xpiperita), according to results of the study, which was conducted in Germany. None of the participants had ulcers, but nearly half of them suffered from both indigestion and irritable bowel syndrome.
The nineteen participants in the test group took a combination of 50 mg of caraway oil and 90 mg of peppermint oil in enteric-coated capsules three times daily, while the others took a placebo. After four weeks, researchers noted that:
•In the test group, 63 percent of participants became pain-free, versus 25 percent of the people in the placebo group.•Only 10.6 percent in the test group reported medium to severe pains, compared with 55 percent of those on the placebo.•A total of 95 percent of those in the test group had less gas and fewer complaints of fullness, tension, and pressure, whether or not they had irritable bowel syndrome.

Right I have a bit of cash burning a hole in my pocket and right through my leg. I sold my amp with a view to pick up another guitar and I'm driving myself nuts!
Do I get
1 - get an se7 string, I was part of the make us a 7 string team, I'm loving the spalted maple and black finishes! A couple of mods and it would a keeper. I would have change for a couple of mods.
2 - get a Zach Myers HB, it's another guitar I had daydreamed about and I have been offered a great deal from my dealer. I could even end up with change for an \m/ bridge pickup for my ce24
3 - finish off modding my 2 ce24's only thing that puts me off is I really want PTC to work their magic on them but the cost would be prohibitive.
4 - upgrade my 'studio' setup from a guitarport, ezdrummer and headphones. Works fine for me as it is but it's not exactly a quality setup.
What a good position to be in!

[0001] The invention relates generally to methods for dry cleaning textiles and clothing. More specifically, the present invention relates to a dry cleaning apparatus and modifications thereto which removes excess dry cleaning solvent from the system and is thereby more environmentally friendly.
[0002] Dry cleaning of textiles and, in particular, fine clothing is a well known process in which the garment is immersed in a cleaning solvent other than water which loosens any dirt, grease or grime from the fibers of the garment fabric which is then, in one way or another, evaporated off. There are any number of different solvents and methods for doing this.
[0003] In conventional dry cleaning systems, the effluent vapors or fumes of the solvent such as perchlorethylene (PERC) emanating from the dry cleaning washing machine and dryers generally are vented directly to the atmosphere and thus pollute the atmosphere. By being so vented, they are also lost for reuse. Thus, the escaping vapors not only produce an environmental hazard, but their loss is extremely costly to the dry cleaning establishment.
[0004] Attempts have been made to remove the solvent vapor contained in the air-stream through a bed of activated carbon. The carbon absorbs the solvent vapor or gas held in the air-stream, allowing the thus cleaned air to pass through the carbon bed to atmosphere. See U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,203,110 and 3,538,615 to Fuhring et al. Unfortunately, the carbon bed will only absorb approximately one gallon of solvent per 80 lb. of carbon before becoming saturated with solvent vapor, and must then be de-absorbed by passing a "blanket" of steam through the carbon bed in a reverse direction to that of the absorption flow. The steam and solvent vapors form an azeotrope which must then be condensed, and the resultant water and liquid solvent must be separated according to their specific gravities. Thereafter, the solvent may then be recycled for reuse.
[0005] U.S. Pat. No. 4,622,039 to Merenda discloses and claims a method and means to recapture the cleaning solvent and to reuse the same so that as a result thereof, the solvent is not vented to the atmosphere and thus pollution of the atmosphere is avoided. A dry cleaning washer and a dryer are arranged in a closed cycle system so that the effluent solvent vapor from the washer is delivered to an accumulator chamber simultaneously with the delivery from the dryer of effluent hot air. The hot air superheats the solvent vapor thereby increasing its volatility and the heated and highly volatile solvent vapor is then passed to a condenser which contains feed coils for supplying clean air to the dryer. In passing through the condenser, the superheated solvent vapor instantly liquifies giving off its heat to the cool air, thus pre-heating the clean air prior to its entry into the dryer. The liquified solvent is returned to the washer, or to a storage reservoir.
[0006] U.S. Pat. No. 3,951,597 to Mooring discloses and claims a method of dry cleaning fabrics, draperies or clothing, in situ, by forcefully infusing the fabric in the open atmosphere with special fast-acting, versatile dry cleaning solvent so as to dissolve and suspend various stains and soils in the fabric, even though firmly set due to age. Ambient air is promptly drawn in and droplets of soil-laden solvent is promptly drawn therethrough by suction into a closed waste and suction chamber where the soil is deposited in the form of a sludge, while the carrier air and solvent is discharged to the atmosphere. A special, highly effective, fast-acting, non-flammable and non-toxic solvent such as methylene chloride, trichloro-ethylene is useful for these purposes.
[0007] U.S. Pat. No. 4,086,705 to Wehr discloses a dry cleaning apparatus wherein petroleum solvent vapors which are discharged from a dry cleaning dryer in a heated gaseous mixture of vapors and air are condensed and recovered, and heat energy is recovered for productive use elsewhere. The gaseous mixture of vapors and air is sprayed with relatively cool water to condense the solvent vapors. The resulting liquid mixture of water and solvent is withdrawn from the spray chamber and is subjected to gravitational separation. Water reclaimed in the separation process is reused in the spray chamber. Recovered solvent is reused in a dry cleaning washer. The gravitational separation process is preferably carried out in a series of gravitational separators, and heat is withdrawn from at least one of the separation units for productive use in a heat-consuming device.
[0008] U.S. Pat. No. 3,807,948 to Moore teaches a method of dry cleaning of goods in which the majority of the solvent present in the goods at the conclusion of the actual cleaning is recovered by circulating air, by means of a fan, through the goods in a dry cleaning drum and through a water-cooled condenser and a heating element. A small remaining amount of solvent is removed from the goods by a deodorizing operation, in which air is passed in a closed circuit through the goods in the dry cleaning drum and over a refrigerated surface on which the solvent is condensed.
[0009] Finally, U.S. Pat. No. 3,928,660 to Alderson et al., discloses a dry cleaning finishing method and apparatus for use in combination with a steam clothes press for mixing and pressurizing a liquid so that it can be easily applied to garments being pressed. The apparatus comprises a supply tank that meters the liquid material into a pressure tank. Steam condensate is mixed with steam from the clothes press and this provides the chemically pure water, heat and pressure to the pressure tank that mixes with the sizing concentrate and forces the water-sizing mixture to a spray gun for use when needed or desired by the pressman.
[0010] All of the aforementioned dry cleaning methods either require considerably more steps added to the overall dry cleaning process thereby requiring additional time and expense in carrying out the procedure or additional pieces of dry cleaning machinery which takes up space and also adds to the expense of the operation.
[0011] It is an object of the present invention to provide a dry cleaning means and method for its operation for removing excess cleaning solvent from the fabrics cleaned during the dry cleaning process thereby rendering it more environmentally friendly. The removed solvent is recaptured and contained rather than emitted into the atmosphere.
[0012] The dry cleaning method and apparatus of the present invention removes excess perchlorethylene (PERC) and other volatile cleaning solvents from clothing and fabric by injecting a predetermined amount of steam into a dry cleaning unit or vat wherein the solvent saturated clothing and fabric have been treated. The hot steam further volatilizes any additional PERC remaining in or on the fabric and this is removed from the container by vacuum. The PERC/steam mixture is then condensed and the two components separated for re-use.
[0013]FIG. 1 is an over-all schematic side view of a standard dry cleaning dryer with the attached PERC steam stripper of the present invention.
[0014] During the course of the dry cleaning cycle in any standard dry cleaning system, the volatile cleaning solvents such as perchloroethylene (PERC) will often become absorbed into certain fabrics or clothing articles in excess amounts. Dense fabrics such as camel hair or wool often pose a problem in this regard. In many of the dry cleaning processes known in the art, the PERC cleaning solvent is not always fully removed and thus can result in an unpleasant odor or feel when the article of clothing is worn.
[0015] The present apparatus and method insures that all of the cleaning solvent used in the dry cleaning process is removed from all the articles of clothing without damaging even the most sensitive of fabrics. This is achieved by injecting a pre-determined amount of steam into the drying vat or unit for a precisely defined period of time based upon the size of the load and the types of fabric being cleaned. The steam insures that any excess PERC remaining in the fabric being cleaned is removed by volatilizing the solvent molecules and then physically separating them from the fabric altogether. This not only results in a dry cleaned fabric material that is free from any undesirable chemical odor and slippery feel, but the perchloroethylene or other cleaning solvent can be separated, collected and condensed for re-use.
[0016] Referring now to FIG. 1, a conventional dry-cleaning dryer (2) or vat is utilized to tumble dry the clothing articles and fabrics (not shown) that have been pre-treated with and are saturated with the cleaning solvent of choice, generally perchloroethylene (PERC). The volatile cleaning solvents for the most part are driven off the fabric through the application of heat at the pre-determined range and duration according to the types of fabric being cleaned.
[0017] In the present invention as disclosed in FIG. 1, a steam source for the dryer is provided by the means of a steam pipe (4) located proximate to the dryer and is in communication therewith by means of a secondary conduct or pipe (6). A plurality of secondary conduits (not shown) could also feed off the same steam pipe (4) enabling several dry cleaning dryers to be utilized in tandem all at once. The steam itself is produced by a boiler either located on the premises or distally thereto and is fed via piping to the primary steam pipe (4).
[0018] As discussed earlier, the amount of steam injected in the dryer and the amount of time during which this occurs depends on the size of the dry cleaning load and the types of fabric being cleaned. The temperature of the steam injected is generally governed by these factors and the type of solvent used. Obviously, the smaller or lighter the load and/or the more delicate the fabric, the shorter the duration of steam injection and stripping and/or the cooler the temperature.
[0019] The duration of steam injection then is controlled by the use of a timer (8) located externally to the dry cleaning dryer or vat (2). Preferably, the timer is in juxtaposition to or attached to the outer casing or wall of the dryer (2) and can be manually set or adjusted therefrom. The timer (8) is in electrical communication (10) with the solenoid valve (12) which it operationally controls. Hence, when the timer is turned on to a specified duration of time, the solenoid valve (12) is turned to its open position and the hot steam from the steam pipe (4) is released and enters into tumble dryer (2). The steam enters into the dryer chamber (2) and over time fills the space not taken up by the fabric or clothes. As the clothes tumble about within the dryer (2), the hot steam thoroughly contacts the surface of the clothes and volatilizes or evaporates and cleaning solvent residue remaining thereon. Once the predetermined duration of solvent stripping has concluded, the timer (8) turns off thereby shutting the solenoid valve (12) and cutting off the flow of steam into the tumble dryer or vat (2).
[0020] The dryer (2) is also provided with a conventional exhaust fan or vacuum (not shown) which collectively draws the steam and volatilized cleaning solvent out of internal chamber of the dryer (2) wherein it is subsequently cooled, condensed and collected. The two liquids can then be either physically separated or separated by distillation means as is known in the art. In this manner, the perchloroethylene (PERC) or other organic cleaning solvent as well as the water if necessary can be re-used thereby adding a cost saving benefit to the process. This is also ecologically sound in that the solvent is self contained and not hazardously discharged into the external environment.
[0021] Referring again to FIG. 1, the solvent steam stripper apparatus of the present invention can alternatively be comprised of a manual shut off valve (14) for the shut off and/or open control of the steam release into the internal chamber of the dry cleaning dryer (2). This manual control valve can either be substituted for or utilized in conjunction with the electronically controlled solenoid valve (12) and timer (8) combination. If the manual shut off valve is used in the system by itself, it should only be used when the fabrics to be cleaned and steamed stripped are not delicate materials thereby requiring the use of precise steam injection periods and wherein these times can be operatively determined by the dry cleaner personnel themselves. When used on the secondary injection pipe (6) together or in tandem with the electronically controlled solenoid valve (12) and timer (8), the manual valve (14) can be utilized as an emergency shut off means or when appropriate, in lieu of the solenoid valve (12) and timer.
[0022] As discussed earlier, the temperature of the steam injected into the dryer or vat (2) and the duration of time during which the steam contacts the clothes and strips the fabric of excess cleaning solvent is generally dependent upon the type of fabric being cleaned and, to a lesser degree, the type of solvent used. The more delicate the fabric, shorter steam stripping times and cooler steam temperatures provide the best cleaning results. Consequently, the more durable fabrics can generally withstand higher steam temperatures and longer steam stripping application times. And generally speaking, the duration of time during which the steam is allowed to contact the clothes is inversely related to the temperature of the steam. The hotter the steam, the shorter the steam/clothing contact period and vice versa.

Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

Who are you? How do you introduce yourself? Do you use a name, or do you greet a friend by the last four digits of his social security number?

From childhood wish to lasting legacy, Smith's charity specializes in smiles
Originally Published: February 18, 2009By Dana O'Neil | ESPN.com
CLEMSON, S.C. -- It was a typically frantic Monday morning and, hurrying to get out the door, Kathy Smith started to scratch her name on her son's homework assignment when she stopped to read what he had written.
The fourth-grade creative assignment was pretty straightforward: If I Had Three Wishes.
Kathy smiled as she read the first item on her son's bucket list: a golden retriever. Ever since he met a slobbering canine friend across the street, Tanner had been hounding his parents ...

Kevin Craft (born October 15, 1985 in Escondido, California) is a former college football quarterback at UCLA, who played for the Cougars de Saint-Ouen l'Aumône, France in France and currently plays for the IBM Big Blue in the Japanese X-League.
High school years[edit]
Craft attended Valley Center High School in Valley Center, California and was an excellent student and a letterman in football, basketball, and track. In football, he was a three year letterman and earned All-California Interscholatic Federation honors. Kevin Craft graduated from Valley Center High School in 2004.
College career[edit]
Craft originally attended San Diego State University, where his father, former SDSU Aztecs quarterback Tom Craft, was head coach. Arriving in 2005, Craft redshirted his first year; his father was fired at the end of the season and replaced by Chuck Long. Craft remained and, as a redshirt freshman, appeared in nine games and started five as the Aztecs went onto a 3-9 record in 2006; he had a 109.8 passer rating. In his first career start at San Diego State, Kevin Craft completed 20 of 32 passes for 216 yards against BYU.
Mt. SAC[edit]
Craft transferred from SDSU after the season and played football at Mt. San Antonio College (Mt. SAC) in Walnut, California during the 2007 season; again for his father Tom, who became the offensive coordinator at Mt. SAC.[1]
Craft transferred to UCLA in time for the 2008 spring practices. He soon found himself in as the starting quarterback for the UCLA Bruins Football team after the two veteran starters, Ben Olson and Patrick Cowan, both fell to extended injuries. In the Bruins opener for the 2008 season, Craft led the Bruins to a 27-24 victory against 18th ranked Tennessee in overtime. After throwing 4 interceptions in the first half he came back to complete 18 of 25 passes for 193 yards and 1 TD in the second half.[2]
The Bruins finished the season with a record of 4-8 (3-6 Pac-10) and failed to participate in a post-season bowl game. He competed with Kevin Prince and freshman Richard Brehaut for the quarterback position in 2009.
In the 2009 Washington game at the Rose Bowl, Craft came in after Kevin Prince went out to guide the Bruins to a one-point victory, 24-23, and an end to the team's five straight Pac-10 conference losses. He had 10 of 14 completions for 159 yards with an interception.[3]
Professional career[edit]
In 2010, Kevin signed with the Cougars de Saint-Ouen l'Aumône, France. The Cougars play in the highest level of competition in France (Division 1) and in the EFAF Cup. Every team in the French national championship is eligible to sign two American players. Kevin decided to choose this challenge over his coaching job in order to help the Cougars to reach the national title. Craft chose the Cougars despite a late offer from the CFL's Calgary franchise.
During the 2010 season, Kevin completed 216 of 398 passes for 2,851 yards, 28 TDs and 13 INTs. He rushed for 245 yards and scored 4 TDs.[4]
In 2012, Kevin played for IBM Big Blue in Japanese X-league. He was an all league selection and a rookie of the year for the central division. Craft passed for 199 yards in a May 31, 2014 game.[5]
Craft majored in sociology and participated in the 2009 UCLA commencement ceremony with former quarterback Troy Aikman, who came back to UCLA to finish his degree.

I know my entry here is way too late and after the Feb. 28th 2015 deadline. However, had I made this entry prior to the closing date to win, this is what my goals still are:... to show those boys and girls (if I could ever be privileged to own one of the Trey's Flying Camera) for them to have the real life projects of graphics of others dreams (like mine) that they themselves want and dream of yet cannot have. These boys and girls are those who are dreamers and of age in understanding there dreams " to become" and have filled their dreams to be engineers, architects and designers of the future; yet their future dreams have been halted by having terminal cancers and are receiving sustaining treatments with the only hope of maybe curing their cancers and possibly living longer. Just as my dream was to become a Professional Engineer (PE) has come true for me, who also by the way loves photography as a top hobby of mine, and as YOU who have fulfilled your dream as a Professional Photographer and one who has become notably worthy, I want to let there dreams to stay alive for as long as they can.....even if it may never can be reached. let me know if you can help my boys and girls thru me; I can be reached at my cell 864-505-2976 or office at 864-271-7343.
Thank You.
