We will see this week that the Bluegrass state is more than mint juleps on the porch and Ashley Judd.
The biggest in-state rivalry imaginable is about to hit the town of New Orleans like a BP oil spill.
It's the No. 1 seeded and storied Kentucky Wildcats going against the Louisville Cardinals in the semifinals of the Final Four on Saturday — and it's going to get nasty.
For the fanatical followers of each program, bloodlines and families will split and allegiances will be disbanded. Basketball is a religion in Kentucky and whether a saint or a sinner, everyone is preparing for Armageddon...

ANTH 3330: Cultural Anthropology
Using both humanistic and scientific approaches, cultural anthropology offers a holistic, comparative perspective on human condition. The nature, principles and comparative topics of culture - such as subsistence, family, language, religion and art - will be studied. Visual examples will be drawn from many cultures, offering students an opportunity to appreciate both the complex cultural diversity and the common traits of the world. Applications of anthropological knowledge to contemporary problems will be discussed as well.

Editor's Note: This article was originally published at 9:15 a.m. EDT on Real Money on May 24. To see Jim Cramer's latest commentary as it's published, sign up for a free trial of Real Money.NEW YORK ( Real Money) -- If you ask me, we could do worse than 2% to 2.5% growth. That's the level of activity that Union Pacific (UNP - Get Report) CEO Jack Koraleski thinks we can do in this country, and I believe that will result in a steady turn over time. Nothing rapid, but no slippage either. That pretty much jibes with the solid durable-goods numbers we just got Friday. Why do I believe Koraleski has a bead on things? Because he's just about the biggest shipper of building materials, coal, oil, grain, chemicals and autos -- and that's pretty much everything that gives you a feel for what a nation can grow. I was incredibly encouraged after speaking with Koraleski, because he is at the heart of the changing face of American industry due to the energy boom. Given the tight environmental noose on many pipeline developments, Union Pacific has stepped up by building new track everywhere and linking the wellhead to the refineries. That's a ton of jobs. I know from Frank Semple -- CEO of Markwest (MWE), a master limited partnership company -- that plenty of pipeline is still being laid, 18 projects worth multibillions just by Markwest alone. But the railcar imperative grows by the find -- and the runs from Texas (Eagle Ford) to Los Angeles, and from the Bakken to Louisiana, are really Union Pacific-dominated. There's also a feverish building of chemical plants in the Southeast to take advantage of all of the natural gas and natural gas liquids being found, turning the materials into plastic and those oily materials. All are going Union Pacific's way. Just the sheer volume of oil shipped is pretty amazing. Union Pacific moved more oil this quarter than it did all of 2011, and it is just beginning to ramp. If the Keystone pipeline doesn't get built, by the way, that oil will come via Union Pacific. If it does get built, this company will ship the pipe. Autos isn't really an American story, unfortunately. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has given Mexico such an edge that I expect far fewer jobs to be generated from autos than what would otherwise have occurred at this stage of the cycle. However, Union Pacific is the shipper that controls Mexico -- through partnerships with Kansas City Southern (KSU - Get Report) -- and that business is growing very quickly.

The Rockies nicked Maddux for four runs and seven hits in seven innings, dropping him to 1-2.
Matt Holliday had three hits, including an RBI single that snapped a one all tie in the fourth. Holliday also doubled and tripled for the Rockies, who haven't homered in five straight home games.

text: I've got 6 bikes and need to thin the herd a bit. When I lived near the beach, I got a lot of use out of this one but now that I'm back in Memphis it just sits in the garage. I bought it new in 08 or 09 from the Trek store and is still in good shape. No scrapes or dents at all. I can't remember what I paid for it but was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on what I should sell it for.

Carl Edwards earns Phoenix pole
Updated: February 27, 2011, 12:06 AM ETAssociated Press
AVONDALE, Ariz. -- Phoenix International Raceway is filled with bumps and cracks, has patches on top of patches trying to hold it together for one last race.
It may be falling apart, but one thing it has never lost is speed.
Carl Edwards had the fastest lap on one of the fastest days ever at Phoenix, setting the last in a slew of track records on Saturday during the final qualifying session before the surface undergoes a makeover.
"This track is great," Edwards said. ...

Yellow-backed duiker (Cephalophus silvicultor)
|Cephalophus sylvicultor
|Céphalophe À Dos Jaune, Céphalophe Géant
|Duiquero De Lomo Amarillo
|Cephalophus (1)
|Head-body length: 125 - 190 cm (2)
Tail length: 11 - 20 cm (2)
|45 - 80 kg (2)
Classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List (1), and listed on Appendix II of CITES (3).
The yellow-backed duiker is the largest of all duikers; a group of animals which get their name from the Afrikaans word for 'diver', referring to their habit of diving into dense vegetation for cover. As well as its larger size, the yellow-backed duiker is distinct from other duikers due to the patch of yellow hairs on its rump, which is conspicuous against the rest of its blackish-brown coat (4) (5). The body of the yellow-backed duiker is higher at the rump than at the shoulders (4), and the head is long and wedge-shaped (2). Both sexes bear short, cylindrical horns which are ribbed at the base, and a crest of longer, dull chestnut hairs sits between the horns (4) (5). Unlike most other duiker species, the yellow-backed duiker does not constantly wag or 'flag' its tail (6).
The yellow-backed duiker has a wide distribution over west and central Africa, from Senegal to Zambia, but is uncommon and localised within this vast area (5) (7).
Inhabits virtually all tropical forest types, including lowland and montane forests, forest-savanna mosaics and riverine forests, as well as more open habitats such as clearings, savanna, open savanna woodlands and thicket, and even secondary forest and plantations (1) (4) (5) (7).
Duikers have a secretive nature, and this, combined with its dense, fairly inaccessible habitat, means that little is known about the behaviour of the yellow-backed duiker (4) (5). It is thought to be mainly solitary, or living in monogamous pairs, in spaced out territories (2) (4), and may be active by both day and night (5) (8). If the yellow-backed duiker comes across any danger, such as a predator, it will freeze immediately and the hairs in the yellow patch may erect (4) (5); possibly as a clear, visual, alarm signal to other yellow-backed duikers, or as a 'predator invitation signal' which causes a predator to strike too early, giving the duiker a chance to escape (4) (6) (8).
The yellow-backed duiker feeds on a wide range of vegetation, including fruits, leaves, shoots, seeds, bark and buds, and it may also occasionally eat carrion. In captivity a yellow-backed duiker was observed capturing, killing and eating a pigeon (4), and the species has also been recorded eating lizards and even tortoises (5). Yellow-backed duikers are believed to give birth to one calf a year after a gestation period of 151 days. The newborn lies up in vegetation for a week or so, but begins eating solid food very quickly (2), and is fully weaned by four to six weeks of age. The newborn is uniformly brownish-black in colour, with the horns and the characteristic yellow rump only developing after seven months or so (4) (5) (8). The yellow-backed duiker may live for more than 10 years in captivity (8).
The destruction of forests and uncontrolled hunting for food has greatly impacted the yellow-backed duiker; this species is now extinct in Gambia and possibly Rwanda, and remaining populations are declining, except for those where there is effective protection against poaching or human populations are very low (7). If this trend continues, the yellow-backed duiker is likely to become threatened with extinction (7).
The yellow-backed duiker is listed on Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), meaning that any international trade in this species should be carefully monitored (3). It is also likely to occur in a number of protected areas throughout its wide range, such as Outamba-Kilimi National Park, Sierra Leone (9). Whether these are sufficient measures to protect the yellow-backed duiker from becoming at risk of extinction is not clear; the destruction of central Africa's forests and uncontrolled bushmeat hunting are complex problems that require a wide array of actions to save those species affected.

One of the marines in the video where troops appear to be urinating on Taliban corpses in Afhganistan was the unit's leader, according to McClatchy Newspapers.
The company which runs The News & Observer was told by officials that the unit had disciplinary problems while at Camp Lejeune, before it deployed overseas.
The four marines in the video, as well as the person recording the video have been identified as members of a sniper squad from the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marines.
The investigation is still ongoing.

14 Memorable Movie Moments in 2013
2014 is just days away. In general, I think I managed to see some great ones, even before Oscar season. Some underrated, some overrated, some just plain excellent. Time to look back to movies we saw in 2013 by using my feature Memorable Movie Moments. The keyword here is memorable, means unforgettable, shocking, or wonderful. Some of them might not be the best as a whole movie, but some scenes can't be taken of our mind even after sometime we see them. Recognize these images? We might share the same great movie moments in 2013. Here it is :
I can't say I love Spring Breakers, but it is a pretty stylish, daring and provocative movie. After all of the graphic images, the robbery, the violation and the sexy revealing outfits, there's one scene that was a standout from all; when James Franco sing Britney Spears' Everytime with a white piano, with the girls singing along (wearing their pink masks). Beautiful? Yes. Sad? Yes. Meaning? If you ask me, it represents an irony on their shortcut to happiness might killing them inside. It was a surprising change after their glorious feeling of robbering and feeling rich.
After the horrible killing in the dark woods, suddenly India (Mia Wasikowska), umm, please herself in the hot shower while cleansing herself. This is one odd, awkward and shocking scene in Stoker. Then again, the girl is just beginning to know herself. It's unusual and dark coming-of-age movie, a stand out for sure, though not my favorite from 2013.
Kings of Summer is one of the quite many coming-of-age films of teenage boys in 2013. The scene appeared in the opening and in the middle, where the boys are having fun without the supervision of adults in the woods. Playing instruments by themselves with a large pipe and chopped woods in their hands. The music was quite catchy and one of them dances pretty eccentric. Actually, one of the things I love about this movie is that it have lots of great slow motion moments with excellent scenery, not to mention the soundtrack.
One of the big disappointments in 2013 is watching Only God Forgives. It might fail as a whole, but I can't argue with its excellent cinematography. There's one particular scene in a hotel hallway where all the lighting turns red. It's a provocative color added with gold lights, and when you see all the walls turn red including Gosling, it turned into one amazing image.
Some visuals don't need an explanation or a narrated voice over. Sometimes you just get it just by seeing it. And when Mads Mikkelsen did it in one climax scene in The Hunt, you know that he expressed altogether anger, tiredness, sad and fed up. Excellent scene and incredible performance. Mikkelsen should have an award for his acting here.
Without a doubt, Act of Killing is one unforgettable documentary. Not only because it involved the tragedy happened in my own country, but it was a shocking moment for me to see some truth behind it. The memorable scene was when Anwar Congo and his friends reenacted the torture. Congo as the prisoner, but he was too emotional finish it he asked to stopped the reenactment. I think it showed humans are just human who ultimately still have heart, even after killing many people.
Young and fragile, everyone have those moments. Frances embraced her life with full of possibilities, when she's out of money and when she feels alone. Singing in the background is David Bowie's Modern Love, Frances runs with her sneakers and leather jacket. I actually fall in love with Frances Ha parts of it because of its cinematography and the fact that it dared to shown in black and white. The movie is very youthful and modern, but not at all shallow.
There's a lot of violence in 12 Years a Slave, makes it uneasy to see. But you can't just look away because what happens disturbed you as a human being. There's one scene where Solomon is hanged on a tree quite long, without any video edit. Wonders me on how the actor/stuntman managed to breathe, might be a real reaction and not at all acting. And you as a human find it very disturbing, shocked and outraged.
Richard Curtis's About Time is one delightful fantasy drama one might see as a bad film this year. But, I still have a great time watching it and not regretting that I have seen it. To me the best scene is when the couple got married in their home near the cliff. The rain falls heavy filling up the tent, and the tent broke down flooded the guests. But they all just laugh and running for covers. I don't know if it can happen in real life, but it's a nice change rather than frown faces. This falls to my category of one of the best wedding scene.
I am convinced that the scene where Sandra Bullock floating for several seconds was made by purpose just for the aesthetic. But it is one incredible shot! Overrated or not, Gravity is one amazing journey for the eyes.
You can't forget the chaotic and supposed-to-be extravagant The Great Gatsby. There's a lot of things that went wrong in the movie. But you can't say that the visuals are poor. I think when Leonardo shows his fame and prestige, just by raising a glass behind the raining fireworks is unforgettable and iconic.
I don't think you can find one bad frame in To The Wonder. They are all so dreamy, natural, light and just plain beautiful. Many of the affection expressed in the movie creates a wonderful image. Including when Affleck and Kurylenko love feelings are blossomed.
There's a lot of possibilities and possible villains in Prisoners. The first one is Alex (Paul Dano), an adult with the brain of an 8-year-old. Just when he is released from prison, Jackman pulls him between the car and the guy mouthed some words that reveal little new information that proven he's the bad guy. The problem is, only Jackman can hear him. Such a shocking and confusing moment you possibly can't find in another thriller movie.
Falling in love and its ups and downs magnified in Blue is The Warmest Color. Two young girls connect and they couldn't deny the attraction to one another. Yes, there's that one intense bed scene guys would die to watch, and possibly the only thing they can remember from this movie. But there's one scene when the two girls kiss in the center of shining sun, it is one beautiful shot. It seems to represent a big beautiful start of a relationship.
Readers, what's your unforgettable/memorable movie scene in 2013? Any thoughts?

A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor
Post to the Host
Host Garrison Keillor answers your questions about life, love, writing, authors, and of course, A Prairie Home Companion.
Dear Mr. Keillor: Your Minnesota
January 7, 2004 |
Dear Mr. Keillor:
Your Minnesota weather seems to have leaked a little too far south. I live near one of Texas' forgotten seaports, and we can't quite cope with this weather. I've cranked the heater in the swimming pool all the way up, but the wind hitting my wet hair just ruins a good swim. It's thrown the daily routine totally out of whack. How do ya'll endure? No wonder folks from up north seem to always be in a hurry. If they slow down, they'll freeze solid and someone will mistake them for a street performer.
Dear Michelle,
I was in Houston on Saturday and Sunday, walking around carrying a topcoat, no scarf or hat, in 70ish weather, and did not detect any suffering in my vicinity. There seemed to be a lot of coping going on. Everybody was doing fine. If the water feels cold, try rubbing Vaseline petroleum jelly all over your body. Really slather it on thick. I believe Gertrude Ederle did this when she swam the English Channel. Maybe you have your thermostat turned too high. If it's 76 in the house and the pool is 64, then the contrast is bound to be jarring. Or you could move to Costa Rica for the winter and come back to Texas for the summer. These are all the suggestions I have at this time. Thank you for sharing your pain.

We have found out today, that a man accused of killing his girlfriend's 14-year-old sister, is being charged with first degree murder and five counts of sexual assault.
Police in Commerce City say 24 year-old Esequiel Padilla-Villalobos told them his girlfriend asked him to pick up her younger sister Sunday night and he had "thoughts of killing her" while he was driving.
Police documents say he took Gaby Acosta to some horse sheds where he worked and tried to strangle her, then stabbed her to death.
Police say he called 911 just before midnight and said he wanted to turn himself in.
Federal immigration officials have asked that he be held without bond.

Alternative Fungicides for Reduction of Rhabdocline Needle-cast on Douglas Fir
Gary Couch, NYSIPM, email@example.com
return to top
Douglas-Fir is a major component of the Christmas Tree and Nursery industries in NY State. Unfortunately during some recent growing seasons weather conditions lead to severe cases of Rhabdocline needle-cast. The infections are sometimes so severe that affected trees' appearance becomes unacceptable and the trees are lost. One grower estimated losses of approximately $10,000 per year due to a recent outbreak of this needle-cast disease.
Fungicides currently labeled for controlling Rhabdocline on Douglas-fir are perceived as costly and require repeated application. Also, over-use of these labeled products is suspected to have potential for adverse environmental effects and pest resistance. Certainly, organic alternatives are being sought in nearly all phases of agriculture, and they are increasingly demanded by homeowners with children and pets. Even the perception of a hazard can influence farm neighbors and customers, particularly at Cut-Your-Own operations.
Current IPM strategies recommended to control Rhabdocline include: weed control (mowing), lower branch removal, selecting plant sites with good air drainage, and removal of severely infected trees. However there have been problems with IPM implementation involving lack of growers time to perform the labor-intensive tasks involved and a lack of efficacy information on possible alternative products.
This problem prompted the implementation of an alternative Rhabdocline needlecast control study sponsored by the New York State Integrated Pest Management Program. The project was conducted on two farms in Wayne County, New York. At each site 20 trees exhibiting Rhabdocline needle-cast were selected per treatment. Treatments included:potassium bicarbonate, lime-sulfur,active compost-tea, copper sulfate, with chlorothalonil for comparison. Rates and frequency of application were from the label or manufacturers recommendations. In general, it was a relatively low infection season in the study area, probably due to the lack of rainfall events during the sporulation period. This, along with several other factors, makes definitive conclusions problematic. However some indications can be mentioned.
The standard, chlorothalonil, was lowest in terms of both product cost ($.12 per tree per season) and labor cost (3 applications) and gave acceptable control (0-2% infected needles). Of the alternatives, potassium bicarbonate was least costly ($.80 per tree per season, 4 applications) but did not provide acceptable protection (7% infected). The copper sulfate pentahydrate product cost was $2.24 per tree per season, had the highest number of applications (7) and thus the highest labor costs and required personal protective equipment (PPE). Control was acceptable (1% infected). The compost-tea did not give an acceptable level of control (3% infected), left a black residue similar to sooty mold and had the highest product costs ($5.04 per tree per season, 4 applications). The lime-sulfur gave excellent protection but at $1.28 per tree per season and high labor cost (5 applications, requiring PPE) it may not be economically viable. The double rate dormant application of lime-sulfur left a noticeable white residue on older foliage that persisted into the following season. If acceptable control can be achieved without the dormant application, and with fewer seasonal applications, the costs may be brought within reason.
While the economic information on material and labor costs should give growers useful guidelines when selecting a treatment approach, none of the treatments, as tested, gave us a clearly superior alternative to chlorothalonil. The inability to predict infection periods or detect the early stages of infection are both areas requiring further research. Further testing of lime-sulfur may yield an acceptable solution for those growers seeking an organic approach.
New Greenhouse Miticide/Insecticide has Potential for Use with Biological Control
Betsy Lamb, NYS IPM firstname.lastname@example.com
return to top
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has granted a Special Local Needs label for the Miticide/Insecticide Judo (EPA Reg. No. 432-1280-59807) for greenhouse use on ornamental plants, flowers, and foliage plants only. The Special Local Needs labeling is assigned SLN No. NY-070001. Judo is allowed for use in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Outdoor use is prohibited pending data concerning impact on honeybees by the active ingredient, spiromesifen. Applicators should have a copy of the SLN label when applying Judo.
Judo is labeled for spider mites, Tarsonemid mites (broad and cyclamen) and Tenuipalpid mites, and greenhouse, silverleaf and sweetpotato whiteflies (see label for specific species). It is reported to be active on all mite development stages, with juvenile stages more susceptible than adults, and to be most active against whitefly nymphs and pupae. Dan Gilrein has found Judo to be effective against the Q-biotype of silverleaf whitefly (Bemisia argentifolii), which is less susceptible to many of the insecticides currently used to manage the A and B biotypes of silverleaf whitefly in the greenhouse, and has the potential to become an increasing pest in New York State greenhouses.
Judo is reported by the manufacturer to be soft on beneficial insects used for biological control. Based on the Koppert Biological Systems website on side effects (check for Side Effects in the left sidebar), it would be appropriate for use with some of the common biological control agents for whitefly or spider mites. Spiromesefin is listed as harmless to Encarsia formosa adults and Amblyseius swirskii adults and eggs. However, it is slightly to moderately harmful to adult Phytoseiulus persimilis. There is no information concerning impact on other life stages of these beneficial insects or on Eretmocerus eremicus or Amblyseius californicus. While Judo has a reported residual control of 20-30 days, depending on the pest species, it has only short residual effects (low persistence) on some of the beneficial species. Persistence is 2-3 weeks for P. persimilis and 0 weeks for A. swirskii and E. formosa, but has not been determined for A. californicus or E. eremicus.
Spiromesefin is a lipid biosynthesis inhibitor in the class tetronic acids and can be rotated with all other labeled miticides for resistance management purposes. It affects water balance in the insect, resulting in desiccation. Feeding stops after 1-2 days and death occurs 4 -10 days after treatment. While no injury has been reported on poinsetia, there is an expanded list (not yet on the label) of plants that show sensitivity to Judo. Other crops require the use of lower rates. Both lists are included on the Judo Product Information Bulletin. Growers are advised to check for phytotoxicity on other crops, as not all crops have been included in the manufacturer's tests.
Whitefly Update Q & A (Biotype B too)
Betsy Lamb NYS IPM email@example.com
return to top
The Q biotype whitefly is a new variant of the common A and B biotypes of Bemisia whiteflies, the silverleaf whitefly and sweet potato whitefly. (Biotypes are genetically distinct strains of a species, similar to varieties of plant species, although some have been given species designation.) Q and B biotypes are visually indistinguishable and require lab tests for accurate identification. Growers' first indication that they have Q biotype is that the usual insecticides are less effective on what appears to be silverleaf whiteflies (not greenhouse white fly). However, it is possible to have mixed populations of B and Q so lack of efficacy may not be clear-cut.
There were at least 6 cases of Q biotype reported from New York State greenhouses in 2006, on poinsettia and hibiscus. If you suspect that you have Q biotype whiteflies, contact your local Extension personnel and they can help you get the necessary lab analysis and treatment options.
Following are some suggestions to growers on managing whiteflies, particularly the Q-biotype whitefly:

Frustrated by the lack of management options for ornamental crops you grow? You can help by providing information on the types of pests you need help controlling!
For over forty years, the USDAs IR-4 Project has been the major resource for supplying pest management tools for specialty crops by developing research data to support crop protection registration clearances.. The Ornamental Horticulture Program was started in 1977 to address the disease, insect, and weed management tool and plant growth regulator needs of growers. Over time this program has expanded to cover not only ornamental horticulture plants grown in greenhouses and nurseries, but also landscape plantings, Christmas tree farms, sod farms and interiorscapes.
Research activities start with an identified need, an area where current management tools are not sufficient, such as for a newly introduced pest or for crops where little phytotoxicity information is available. Each year, high priority projects are chosen to generate sufficient research to add uses to labels. In order to determine which projects are of most importance, IR-4 invites growers, and Extension and research personnel, to help focus the research by answering a few questions about the diseases, insects, and weeds that most impact them.
Help the Northeast Region be represented in this national survey. In addition to determining national needs, regional information is also useful to researchers and Extension Educators within the state.
The survey can be completed on-line at 2007 Ornamental Horticulture Survey
Paper copies for individual use, or in larger numbers for use at CCE programs, are available from Betsy Lamb at email@example.com (607-254-8800).
Completed paper copies can be mailed or faxed to:
Edith Lurvey
More information on the IR-4 project can be found at Rutgers IR-4 project Ornamental Program Information
CCE personnel are encouraged to provide growers with information on the survey through individual contacts or at programs that relate to ornamental producers.
Tour Greenhouses in Canada
return to top
The NYS IPM Program in collaboration with NYS Flower Industries and the NY Farm Viability Institute will be offering a tour to Canada where participants will visit growers using biological control in their operations. This will offer a unique opportunity to learn from the experts at a very reasonable price. The tour will start in Ithaca, make a quick stop in Buffalo to pick up participants, and continue on to Canada for a 2-night stay. Over the 3 days participants will meet with biological control suppliers, research experts, and growers in Canada.

This week's opening of outdoor retailer Bass Pro Shops' Anchorage store is being welcomed by many residents as both a springboard for new businesses and a turning point for Mountain View.
Even though there's a lot of fanfare for the Wednesday official opening of the outfitting chain's Outpost store, the biggest cheerleaders may be the big-box retailer's next-door neighbors. They are eager to benefit from the increased number of people expected to come through both the Glenn Square shopping center and the neighborhood in general.
After two years of work and the hiring of about 200 employees, Bass Pro Shops is preparing to make its presence felt on the Last Frontier.
"We picked this location because of the value, and it's got a great frontage area right off the (Glenn) Highway," said Pat Nolde, the new store's general manager. "Plus it's being revitalized -- this whole community is being revitalized, and we think we can be apart of that."
Jump-starting Mountain View is what brought Bass Pro Shops neighbor Xalos Mexican Grill to the Glenn Square area. After 13 months, co-owner Arturo Martin says he knows the area has potential, despite the square not being fully occupied by stores.
"I always had faith in this location," Martin said. "I didn't even know Bass Pro was coming or anything like that, but -- it's like, why not?"
The Anchorage Community Land Trust, which focuses on improving Mountain View, says ongoing expansion has already answered Martin's question.
"Bass Pro is going to become a big anchor for Glenn Square; I think they are going to bring a lot of businesses here," said Radhika Krishna, a community development associate with the trust. "We already saw rents rise, we've seen other businesses want to move into Glenn Square."
A spur in development that businesses are embracing. Now the hope is Alaskans will embrace them too.
"I know it's good for business because this is going to bring tons of people from the Valley and Anchorage," Martin said.
Some 28 of Bass Pro Shops' new Anchorage employees live in Mountain View. Other businesses moving into the square include a brewery and a second location of Midtown eatery Kriner's Diner.

|Braley's next Facebook Live chat
|News Releases - Politics & Elections
|Written by Rep. Bruce Braley
|Friday, 22 March 2013 12:38
Last month, I hosted my first Facebook live chat to introduce myself as a candidate for US Senate, and answer the questions most important to you.
After that successful first chat, we asked folks to let us know which issues you'd like to hear more about -- and the answer was clear. That's why I'm asking you to be a part of my second Facebook chat to discuss the economy and job creation here in Iowa, and continue the conversation we began back in February.
Will you join me on Friday, March 29th to discuss these important issues during my next Facebook live chat?
I'll even be joined by a very special guest with experience as a small business owner right here in Iowa.I hope you'll join me to continue our conversation.
See you soon,
Bruce Braley

Blazers 101, Clippers 100
Nicolas Batum had 20 points, 10 rebounds and a career-high 12 assists for his second triple-double in a week as the Portland Trail Blazers handed the Los Angeles Clippers their fourth straight loss with a 101-100 victory on Saturday night in Portland, Ore.
The Clippers, playing without guard Chis Paul for the third straight game because of a bruised right kneecap, trailed by as many as 14 points in the first half but reclaimed the lead in the fourth quarter.
They held off the Blazers until Wesley Matthews pulled Portland within 100-99 with a layup and free throw.
J.J. Hickson made a pair of foul shots to give the Blazers back the lead with 45 seconds left and Jamal Crawford missed a 19-foot jumper for the Clippers with 0.9 seconds left for the final margin.
Blake Griffin had 24 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds for the Clippers.
Sixers 97, Knicks 80: Jrue Holiday scored a career-high 35 points, and Nick Young had 20 as the 76ers cruised to a victory over the Knicks in Philadelphia.
Cavaliers 99, Raptors 98: Kyrie Irving made a 3-pointer in Toronto with 0.7 seconds left to lift the Cavs to their third consecutive win. Headed to his first All-Star game, Irving added to his credentials by calmly draining a pull-up jumper from the top of the arc to give him 32 points.
Wizards 86, Bulls 73: Emeka Okafor had 15 points and 16 rebounds in Washington, helping the Wizards to another victory. John Wall and Nene each scored 16 points for Washington.
Bobcats 102, Timberwolves 101: Gerald Henderson hit a 3-pointer from 25 feet with 4.6 seconds left to lift the Bobcats to a win in Charlotte, N.C.
Rockets 119, Nets 106: James Harden scored 29 points, and Chandler Parsons added 16 points and a career-high 11 assists as the Rockets beat Brooklyn in Houston for their 12th consecutive win over the Nets.
Spurs 108, Suns 99: Tony Parker had 31 points and the Spurs earned their eighth consecutive win by shutting down the Suns in the final quarter in San Antonio. Manu Ginobili added 20 points, Tiago Splitter had 13 and Boris Diaw finished with 11 for San Antonio.
Bucks 109, Warriors 102: Brandon Jennings scored 20 points to lead the Bucks to a victory over the Warriors in Milwaukee. Milwaukee's Monta Ellis scored 20 points against his former team. Stephen Curry led Golden State with 26 points.
Nuggets 121, Kings 93: Ty Lawson scored 26 points, and Andre Iguodala had 20 as the Nuggets used a strong first three quarters to rout the Kings in Denver.
Jazz 114, Pacers 110 (OT): Al Jefferson scored 25 points and Paul Millsap had 21 to lead the host Jazz.

CPR for Fish!
Catch-and-release makes good sense. It provides more fish for more anglers to catch more often. But, catch-and-release itself has a "catch." If people don't handle fish properly, the fish won't survive after being released.
That's why fish managers, including this old fisheries biologist, like to think about CPR for fish. CPR doesn't mean giving the fish mouth-to-mouth resuscitation—imagine that! Instead, it stands for Catch, Pamper and Release. Pampering, or taking good care of the catch before releasing it, helps ensure its survival.
CPR is necessary for both voluntary catch-and-release and for when regulations require anglers to release fish they catch.
Voluntary catch-and-release is more common than you might think. It's a modern philosophy that's evolved as fishing has become more of a sport and less of a means of putting food on the family table.
Sport anglers enjoy the process of finding, fooling and catching fish. To increase the prospects for future enjoyment, they release their fish to, as they often say, "fight another day."
Surveys show that many anglers who target bass, trout and muskie release most of the fish they catch. They might keep the trophy of a lifetime, but they are just as likely to snap a photo of it and return it to the water.
Many anglers are even releasing catfish and crappie, typically thought of as food fish. It's the fun and satisfaction of successful fishing they seek, not the flesh of the fish.
Tournament fishing has done much to spread the catch-and-release philosophy. Tournaments that end in a fish-fry have become exceedingly rare.
Almost all bass and walleye tournaments require anglers to keep fish alive so they can be released. They even deduct points if a fish is dead or near death at the weigh-in. This requirement has led to innovations in livewell design and tournament weigh-in procedures that better protect fish until they can be released.
Fishing regulations often require catch-and-release. Some areas that receive a lot of fishing pressure or that are being managed to protect or rebuild fish populations have areas or seasons in which only catch-and-release fishing is allowed.
Fish shorter than the legal length limit also have to be released immediately after being caught. It's important for anglers not to disregard undersized fish as "shrimps," but to treat them as fish that have not yet reached the legal limit. They may someday grow to be trophies. Their chances of growing larger are reduced, however, unless they are provided CPR.

This is the "not a Raleigh Raleigh Professional" from ebay.
This bike has an almost full campy record group, including french Campy record seat post and bottom bracket. Campy bar end shifters, and cinelli stem and bars. Brakes are Mafac. Rims are Fiamme tubulars. I know I got a deal on this bike, I just would like to know what it might be. it's in great shape except for some crack job repaint. This bike resided on the wall of a local bike shop in Sonoma CA for a long time, it was donated to the shop by an old guy who received it from a friend of a friend who was a "big time bike racer" It sat on the wall of the shop for 10-15 years. the shop closed a few years back and the bike was moved to a storage unit. The owner always thought it was a Raliegh Professional. It was mis listed on ebay and I being the local cool dude picked it up when the guy who won backed out. The brake cable hanger broke off the back. the bike is amazingly light. I'm pretty sure it's full DB 531. no serial numbers that I can find. Any Idea's?

Transformation campaign addresses misconceptions
Mr. Woods, this issue is not about your campign. Are there any other issues you are running for city council on? It seems you are using this as a platform for your campaign. Let's think about this a minute. IF you are elected, and the transormation tax passes, you will have to support the inittiative as a council person. If you choose not to support it and it passes, you are going against the will of the people. Since the vote for the office you are running and the transformation tax votes are being cast simultaneously it doesnt really matter if you support it or not. It is not something you will have the chance to change IF elected. So why not tell the people of your ward what you DO intend to do. It seems as though you are using the dramatics of this issue to piggy back on to give you your 15 seconds of fame. Are you familiar with any other issues within our city government that you COULD do something about (if elected)?

9-18-06 - Local soldiers in Afghanistan came frighteningly close to a suicide bomber on Monday. A man was parked outside the 1-180th camp when he was approached by Afghan Police and detonated a bomb.
Photojournalist Todd Larkin, a member of the 1-180th out of Durant, relayed the news to KXII. Todd is one of about 400 soldiers serving a year and a half peace-keeping mission.
Initial reports indicate the bomber may have been waiting for U.S. soldiers when the police officers approached.
There were no injuries to U.S. troops, but Todd says the explosion was felt across the camp, and killed all three police officers.

Kerry: Turkish comments complicate Mideast process
Friday, March 1, 2013
ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Friday waded into the controversy over comments by Turkey's prime minister equating Zionism to a crime against humanity, rebuking the leader of the NATO ally by saying such remarks complicate efforts to find peace in the Middle East.
Kerry said the Obama administration found the statements by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan "objectionable" and he stressed the "urgent need to promote a spirit of tolerance, and that includes all of the public statements made by all leaders" at a news conference in Ankara with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu.
"We not only disagree with it; we found it objectionable," Kerry said. He added that he had raised the issue with Davutoglu "very directly" and said he would do the same with Erdogan. The spat comes ahead of a trip to Israel and Jordan later this month by President Barack Obama, who wants to try to nudge the Israelis and Palestinians back to peace talks.
Davutoglu, however, gave no acknowledgement of the U.S. complaint and denied that any Turkish official had made hostile or offensive comments about Israel. Instead, he blamed Israel for acting in a hostile way toward Turkey. He repeatedly referred to the deaths of nine civilians at the hands of Israeli commandos aboard a Gaza-bound Turkish aid ship in 2010.
"If Israel wants to hear positive statements from Turkey, it needs to review its attitude," he said. "It needs to review its attitude toward us, and it needs to review its attitude toward the people in the region and especially the West Bank settlements issue."
Asked for his reaction to Davutoglu's remarks, Kerry replied that they demonstrated the difficulty of dealing with such a fraught and emotional situation.
"It underscores the importance of our efforts to try to find a way forward to make peace in this region and to resolve the kind of differences that excite the passions that the foreign minister has just articulated and the difference of opinions about words and about their impact," Kerry said.
Addressing the U.N. Alliance of Civilizations conference in Vienna this week, Erdogan complained of prejudices against Muslims. He said Islamophobia should be considered a crime against humanity "just like Zionism, like anti-Semitism and like fascism."
The White House rejected the comparison on Thursday, calling it "offensive and wrong." A senior State Department official traveling with Kerry said comments like Erdogan's are "corrosive" to U.S.-Turkey relations and damaging to regional and international stability.
Kerry said he believes there is a way to repair the damage, but he added: "It obviously gets more complicated in the aftermath of a speech such as the one we heard in Vienna."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also sharply condemned the remark late Thursday, calling it a "dark and mendacious statement, the likes of which we thought had passed from the world." U.N. chief Ban Ki-Moon joined the critics, saying it was "unfortunate that such hurtful and divisive comments were uttered at a meeting being held under the theme of responsible leadership."
Although he did not back down from the Erdogan remarks, Davutoglu did say that Turkey was a strong proponent of the two-state solution for Israel and the Palestinians and would do whatever it could to help achieve that.
Kerry said that despite the comments, he was hopeful Turkey and Israel could eventually find a way to restore their previously close relations.

Decking materials
Material Type: Redwood/Cedar
What you need to know
Redwood and cedar are naturally resistant to insects and decay. Apply mildewcide and ultraviolet inhibitor to boost durability.
Other considerations
Redwood is fire-resistant and takes stains or paints well. It can be expensive. Cedar weathers to a silvery gray. The surfaces of both woods are soft, making them prone to marring and denting.
Can last 20 years or more, if maintained. Wash at least once a year using deck wash or a power washer, and seal with a preservative sealer. To prevent rot, position board ends so they can dry if they become soaked with water.
$2-$4 per square foot, uninstalled. Prices vary by grade, region, and season.

They endorsed Senate Candidate, Rob Maness, to run against Incumbent Senator, Mary Landrieu.
A small crowd listened to Maness share his ideas, and why he thinks Landrieu must go.
"She doesn't represent the values of the people of Louisiana or the beliefs that our rights come from God," said Maness. "Washington shouldn't be trying to determine our rights, we should be protecting them."
The Tea Party Express will travel to four other cities, including Monroe and New Orleans.
Tea Party Express Executive Director Taylor Budowich said, "Tea Party Express is excited to endorse Colonel Rob Maness for U.S. Senate. America is suffering and career politicians on both sides of the aisle have contributed to the out-of-control spending and crippling regulations. The beltway's do-it-tomorrow mentality isn't working and it's time for an outsider like Rob Maness to go shake things up. After getting to know Rob and his background, it's clear he's a fighter. Rob puts duty to country above all else. That's a stark contrast to the professional politicians like Senator Mary Landrieu," Budowich said. "Landrieu shows no remorse for abandoning the needs of her constituents to peddle Obama's liberal agenda- like voting yes for Obamacare. Another quality Rob brings is leadership.
