Tree spears car in Snohomish, putting homeowners in a bind
Nicole Loistl-Minkel looks over a 1985 Mitsubishi pickup Thursday that was speared by part of a large cedar tree that sheared off Tuesday night at the home of her in-laws, Brian and Theresa Minkel, of Snohomish. Theresa Minkel said the large broken section could strike their house if it falls the rest of the way. She said a tree removal service estimate to remove the tree was $3,200, but it is not covered by their homeowners insurance because the tree landed on the truck. They also must find an affordable way to remove the tree before it falls on the house because, she says, the insurance will not cover that damage either, now that they have been warned.

Defeating al-Qaeda will require more than a military strategy that attacks the core the group's top leaders. Even if the military were to eliminate Usama bin Laden and Ayman az-Zawahiri tomorrow, the world's most dangerous terrorist organization would continue to wreak havoc. Al-Qaeda can do this because it can rely on a large peripheral network of cells and affiliate groups, which are local Islamist organizations with local grievances that are equally committed to global jihad.
The al-Qaeda leadership should be viewed as the corporate headquarters of the terrorist organization, while the cells and affiliate groups should be viewed as franchises. If and when the headquarters are destroyed, the franchises can easily continue to operate. In short, a holistic approach to defeating al-Qaeda is needed.
The Rand Corporation, a leading defense think tank, has provided an excellent two-volume analysis to that end. The first volume looks at the ideology of the movement, its tactics, finances, and the "nebula" of al-Qaeda that includes local affiliate groups from Southeast Asia, South Asia, North Africa, the Caucusus, and of course, Iraq. Part 1: the Global Jihadist Movement even provides illustrations and tables that help demonstrate the links between jihadists "clusters" and the al-Qaeda core. More importantly, Part 1 also addresses the problem of radical Islam (they call it Global Jihad), identifying it as the ideological enemy that must be defeated. In just 186 pages, this volume covers the al-Qaeda phenomenon in a competent and comprehensive way.
Part 2: The Outer Rings of the Terrorist Universe is somewhat less integrated and less accurate, asserting that the Algerian Armed Islamic Group (GIA) and the Egyptian Gamaa al-Islamiyya (GI) fall outside of the al-Qaeda network. Both groups, while now dwindling in numbers, were cornerstones of the original al-Qaeda affiliate network in the late 1990s. On the other hand, the editors were smart to analyze the Iraqi insurgency, the Palestinian Hamas terrorist organization, the Lebanese Hezbollah, and even some of the antiglobalization groups as potential members of the global terrorist phenomenon. Part 2 also addresses the "convergence of terrorism, insurgency and crime," which is a worthwhile topic, but one that only adds to a feeling of disjointedness throughout.
The authors of these two volumes are not among the usual suspects who typically write about al-Qaeda. Nonetheless, their final products are sober, even-handed, and worthwhile reads.

I noticed some posts in the road and mtb forum discussing the "other side". So which side of cycling do you reside on? If you do both, pick the one you feel you are more commited to, or enjoy the most. Im curious to see what the results are.

I noticed some posts in the road and mtb forum discussing the "other side". So which side of cycling do you reside on? If you do both, pick the one you feel you are more commited to, or enjoy the most. Im curious to see what the results are.
I ride MTBs ... both for commuting and hitting the trail for recreation (no not the paved trails lol)
I imagine you will find mostly road bikers here. Between the road forum, bents, tandems and fixies....
I voted road since that is where most of my KM come from. But I do love hiting the single track.
I am a road racer, I guess that qualifies me as a road cyclist...
Just your average club rider... :)
What if you're both? I commute on rough glass littered roads to work and ride my road bike when possible at night and on the weekends.
You need checkboxes instead of radio buttons...

For too long have we sat under the thumb of mankind.
Now is the time to OPPOSE that thumb!
I'm not fat, I'm a sprinter!
I grew up riding bmx (as in dirt, not freestyle,) did some 10 speed racing in the 80's, eased into mountain biking, and now I ride 99% roads. I still take the 20" bmx offroad for kicks but I don't put near the mileage on bmx that I do on the roads so I'm a road biker. Definitely no longer a racer though.
Most of my time is spent on the road. Between commuting and endurance cycling for fitness/weightloss. I love XC MTB as well. Just don't always have time to drive to the places to ride.

My commuter is a track bike. I just bought a full suspension MTB on Thursday that needs some work. I don't know what it is.
I can't vote on this poll. I don't have a road bike, but that's probably the closest...
well I am a rider who rides a moutain bike but does not really do any "Mountain Biking"
There is no 'other side'. Its all two wheels, two pedals, and human power. I do both 'only for fun' riding, aka sport riding, as well as 'gettin stuff done' riding, and for either one I might use a road or mountain style bike depending on the circumstance, and for the first, I might also use a mutant bike that doesn't fit any existing 'road' or 'mtb' category. If I had to pick the bike I ride most, it would be an urban assault trim hardtail/rigid fork GT mountain bike, which gets used for fun and work all the time.
As the number of forums show, it isn't as simple as 'road' bikes and 'mountain' bikes. Those are the two halves of the bike shop, but not the two aspects of riders.
51% fixed road bike
9% geared road bike
15% commuter bike
22% mountain bike
3% touring bike
0% on the couch
I ride both.
At the moment I find myself more enraptured by the mountain bike. That and I have to ride it everyday through the canyon to get to school.
I'm in there too. I have a mountain bike frame, but skinny wheels and tires, and virtually all of my mileage is on pavement.Originally Posted by redmonster
I have a little time on the couch... Cause thats where I like to build up wheels.Originally Posted by The Fixer

Road. But I wouldn't mind looking into mountain biking at some point. It looks like a lot of fun.
Well everyone has their own technique! Do you even own a couch? Or do you sleep on your bike too? I've always wondered if that would be possible, the sleeping-track-stand.Originally Posted by The Fixer
Both. Or, neither . . . MTBers always think I'm a roadie who got lost when they see me out on the trails, and Roadies always think I'm an MTBer when they see my gear.
I probably spend more time on the road, about 70/30 mix I guess.
Well, let's see. This morning, I went for a quick 2-mile cold MTB loop in the trails behind my house. Then I came home and ate some breakfast, washed some mud off me and went out for a 25-mile road ride up here on the plateau. I decided not to vote in this poll.

Road is all I've ever done. I wouldn't know where to go to MTB.
Although I've got this Bridgestone in the garage taking up space.
Looks like it's due for a good beating.
If there's somebody in S.Jersey that could give me a clue where to ride, I'd be interested.

I was thinking/hoping it might be the MB-1 with the covetted Ritchey-designed biplane-crowned fork. Granted the fork on the XO-3 is still pretty nice to look at. The XO-3 is a nice hybrid although it's a 26" hybrid which lends itself to fitting knobbier offroad tyres. And of course the moustache handlebars are quite unique. Very odd... I just had a dream last night that I was riding a bike with moustache handlebars. the bike was purple though.Originally Posted by KirkeIsWaiting

Aaron Lazar, From Duke to Broadway
After a performance of Sting's musical The Last Ship in mid-November, a couple of exceptional Duke theater alums and a transformative faculty member talked about their connection to Duke. Aaron Lazar graduated in 1998 with a music degree. The Last Ship was his ninth appearance in a Broadway show. Nathaniel Hill is a 2012 graduate of the Theater Studies program. In his senior year he produced Ragtime, Duke's first Graduation with Distinction project in production. Standing next to them was a man who played a crucial role in both of their college careers—Emanuel "Manny" Azenberg, an eminent Broadway producer who doubled as a professor at Duke for many years.
This is Lazar's story, lightly edited.
I got a scholarship to sing in the opera department that was new. They had just brought Susan Dunn down from the Met to teach and create the opera program, and so I was very grateful for the scholarship. It required me to be a music major, so I was majoring in music and then minoring in pre-med.
My parents were going to be very happy because they'd have a nice Jewish doctor in the family, and then two things happened. One, I took Manny [Azenberg's] class. I'd never read a play before, and the first play we read was Tom Stoppard's Arcadia, which was absolutely a joke for me, I seriously didn't understand a word of it.
Manny's entire class hinges upon visceral essays in response to the play that you've just read. I couldn't write anything, I didn't understand anything that I read, so I made up some... crap, I'm sure. And I got to meet Tom Stoppard here, on stage, a couple of weeks ago, and tell him that story. He was very gracious.
Anyway I took Manny's class. And then a drama professor at Duke, Jeff Storer, and Jody McAuliffe, cast me in Carousel. Carousel was a reintroduction to musical theater for me. I'd done some musicals in high school and said I wouldn't have time to do it in college because I'd have to get good grades and all that. And then, after Carousel, professors started pushing me, saying, you should try it, you should try it.
I kept my parents happy after, because the MCATs are good for three years. I went to graduate school for theater for two years at Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music and then I had one year to get a job. I got a job six months in and then never wanted to take the test again and so, here we are.
Nathaniel Hill went from his senior production at Duke into the professional world, where, among other things, he served on the general management team for The Last Ship. This past fall he returned to campus during DEMAN (Duke Entertainment Media and Arts Network) weekend to share his experience with students coming along behind him. As he says in the video, DEMAN is "an amazing program that's been created to help students who don't necessarily want to be doctors and lawyers get their toes wet in the business, get that first internship and start meeting people, which is so important in our business."
It's worth quoting comments Azenberg made about his Duke class when he received the 2012 Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre. Lazar, it turns out, had exactly the experience his professor intended him to have.
For 25 years Azenberg also taught a theatre course at Duke University, where he was famous for handing out in class plays with the covers and title pages ripped off, so that he could elicit an unbiased "visceral response" from the students. "It was a fun course and the kids were challenged," he says. "If they didn't understand the play, they would have to just say that, not that they hated it. By the end of the semester, hopefully, they actually had some confidence in their own opinion and also recognized that all the arts are subjective."
The Perfect Detonator
The Perfect Detonator, the Duke University Department of Theater Studies fall MainStage play, finished a successful run this past November. The play, based on Joseph Conrad's novel The Secret Agent, was adapted and directed by Duke theater professor Jody McAuliffe.
McAuliffe's work follows Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber, as he reads Conrad's story of an anarchist cell in nineteenth-century London plotting to bomb the Greenwich Observatory, a major symbol of science and industrialization at the time. As the play unfolds, Conrad's fictional tale intersects with Kaczynski's real-life bomb plots in the United States. "Like the Unabomber, Conrad saw industrial society as at odds with the human heart," McAuliffe says.
As McAuliffe told the Duke Chronicle, the genesis of her project was an encounter with the work of filmmaker James Benning, who came to Duke in 2013 as part of the visiting artist lecture series Immersed in Every Sense 2.
"Benning had reconstructed Henry David Thoreau's and Ted Kaczynski's iconic cabins," McAuliffe said. "He used these structures to reflect on utopian and dystopian versions of social isolation. Benning's visit reignited my interest in the controversial figure of Kaczynski, particularly in his connection to Thoreau. I developed a plan to read the books that Kaczynski kept in his cabin and I started, fatefully, with Conrad's 'The Secret Agent,' a most significant book for Kaczynski."
McAuliffe pursued the natural connections between her production and the work and concerns of the broader academic community. Tim Nichols, an expert on counterterrorism and homeland security and Executive Director of Duke's Counterterrorism and Public Policy Fellowship Program, was involved in the rehearsal process. After the opening-night performance he led a public discussion of domestic terrorism, joined by fellows from his "National Security Decision-Making" class. Two nights later, Professor of Slavic and Eurasian Studies Beth Holmgren presented "A Brief Intro to Joseph Conrad, a Man Between Empires."
McAuliffe, who is Chair of Theater Studies and Professor of the Practice of Theater Studies and Slavic and Eurasian Studies, found collaborators in other arts departments, as well. William Noland, Professor of the Practice of Visual Art & Theater Studies, was the video designer, assisted by MFAEDA students Aaron Kutnick and Windrose Stanback. Noland was also responsible for bringing James Benning to campus. Emeritus Professor Frank Lentricchia was the dramaturg. The sound designer was composition graduate student Ben Daniels, and the choreography was created by Clay Taliaferro, an emeritus professor of dance.
In addition, McAuliffe brought in Roz Fulton-Dahlie from UNC School of the Arts for lighting design and local designer Sonya Drum for set design. The vocal coach was Duke theater studies alum Madeleine Lambert.
Rude Mechs Residency Brings Together Theater, Gaming, and Science
Now Now Oh Now (photo by Jeremy Lange)
A Visiting Artist Grant from the Council for the Arts brought the celebrated Austin, Texas theater collective Rude Mechs to Duke this past September. Their ten-day residency culminated in eight sold-out performances of Now Now Oh Now, an intimate, immersive theatrical experience presented by Duke Performances in Sheafer Lab Theater. Rude Mechs treated each audience of thirty to a show that combined serious scientific content with the nerdy pleasures of interactive gaming and the undeniable satisfaction of Murder Mystery Theatre.
According to CVNC reviewer Kate Dobbs Ariail, Now Now Oh Now "shows and tells the importance of plays and playing in the great game of life." In its final section, she wrote, the actors "engage the audience in a meditation on choice and chance and make a crystalline argument for beauty's crucial role in natural selection."
Photos by Eric Oberstein
While on campus, Rude Mechs worked with students in several acting and production classes in the Theater Studies department. They also visited Legal Issues for the Performing Arts, a class taught by Dan Ellison, a local attorney, arts advocate, and Duke alum. They joined scientists at the Durham-based National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCent) for a lunchtime conversation about evolution and theater and they toured Erich Jarvis's Neurobiology of Vocal Communication Lab.
One student described to Duke Today the impact Rude Mechs' visit had on him:
Duke student Jon Payne has had just enough acting experience to be intrigued by the ethics of the craft. A visit by the Texas-based theater company Rude Mechs to his Introduction to Acting class was just what he needed.
"In the back of my head I have always debated the truthfulness of acting—whether or not what we're doing on stage, pretending to be other people, is honest," said Payne, a second-year student. "I've never heard anyone debate that in my classes but it was one of the first things the Rude Mechs wanted to discuss. It was a very eye-opening approach to the art and one I might not have heard without their class visit."
The visiting artist program brings compelling artists in all genres to Duke not only to show their work but also to share the concept, technique and process behind it. According to Eric Oberstein, associate director of Duke Performances, artists are chosen because they are "comfortable engaging with students, good speakers, curious and interested in a deeper conversation." Their formal and informal exchanges with students and the community complement and extend the work already being done on campus. As Jon Payne testified, those exchanges can be eye-opening.
2014-15 Visiting Artists
Duke's 2014-15 Visiting Artist lineup includes a dance company that will explore tablao traditional dance of Spain, a theatrical group that immerses the audience in their interactive productions, and a residency that will bring together new music and rare footage about life in the North Carolina Piedmont in the early 40s.
The goal of the Visiting Artist Program is to support projects that will enrich the life of the university and broader community, augment the curricular efforts of a range of departments and programs, facilitate the interaction of artists and scholars, foster the reputation of Duke University as a place where the arts are vital and diverse, and contribute to the arts as a whole.
Puppets and Patterns of Humanity: An Interview with Torry Bend
Love's Infrastructure (photo by Izzy Burger)
Torry Bend is an Assistant Professor of the Practice in Duke's Theater Studies Department, where she teaches the design classes and designs the sets for the department's main productions. Her set designs have appeared at major venues around the country: Are They Edible, presented at La Mama, Incubator Arts Project and Dixon's Place, a Southwest Shakespeare Company production of Pygmalion, and Stephen Wadsworth's Agamemnon at the Getty Villa, among others. She's a 2007 graduate of the MFA program in Scene Design at California Institute of the Arts.
Bend also creates strikingly original multimedia puppet shows, which she then builds and directs. Her first major show in Durham was Paper Hat Game. IndyWeek reviewer Byron Woods described it as a "sparkling yet pensive fusion of video, experimental set design and live performance [that] borrows a number of film techniques as it unfolds the true story of Scott Iseri, a Chicago sound designer whose deceptively whimsical acts of performance art—and community building—began on that city's subways in 2001." The video design for the show was by Raquel Salvatella de Prada, a Duke colleague from Visual and Media Arts.
"I think that our music is a little silly at times and also very sad and Torry's art combines those elements as well, so, kind of seeing the full spectrum of emotion in life of both happiness and sadness, and laughter and tears."
-James Phillips of Bombadil
Bend's latest show, Love's Infrastructure, owes its existence to Aaron Greenwald, executive director of Duke Performances. After seeing Paper Hat Game at Manbites Dog Theater, Greenwald was inspired to introduce the imaginative director to the members of Bombadil, a playfully compelling local band that he'd presented in Duke Gardens the previous summer. They hit it off, and a commission from Duke Performances launched a collaboration. The result is a surreal puppet pop opera that centers on daydreaming Angeline, a character from Bombadil's song by the same name, and the man who falls in love with her. Love's Infrastructure played four shows to packed houses this past January.
Bend's next production, If My Feet Have Lost the Ground, is the story of a woman who finds a beating heart on an airplane and goes in search of its owner. It's slated for production in the fall.
I got a taste of Bend's hands-on production style when I visited the set of Love's Infrastructure on the afternoon of its premier. It was calm when I arrived—a few people were putting final touches on the set while Bombadil ran through their numbers and checked their timing. An hour or so later things were busier, and I watched Bend sit on the floor to paint the base of a little house on a pole. Every few strokes of the brush, it seemed, she was pulled away to discuss logistics or check some camera work or adjust some other part of her elaborate toy cityscape. When I left she was back on the floor, painting and joking with a few bystanders. I had the feeling that the last-minute project was more a refuge than a duty. After all, constructing sets is what got her hooked on the theater, and I think that even her most conceptual work springs from the same basic fascination with model building.
It was an all-consuming show with a compressed production schedule, and Bend was still catching her breath when I interviewed with her about a week and a half after it closed. Naturally we talked about the show, but we also talked about her evolution as an artist, about her dual roles as scene designer and puppet artist, and about her teaching and her background. What follows is an edited transcript of the conversation.

Perfect For Them: Alumni On Their Theater Experience At Duke
Kevin Poole in "Big Love" by Charles L. Mee
Kevin Poole. (T'98) (directed Phil Watson in his Senior Distinction project, "An Iliad.")
Studying and practicing theater at Duke enriched my college experience immensely. A thread within the fabric of my overall liberal arts education, theater provided a means to actively explore social issues by more deeply comprehending the complex relationships between individuals and systems within which those individuals operate; sometimes knowingly, often times not. Balancing practice with theory is a challenge within the field of theater in higher education and that tension played out well for me at Duke and also in graduate school.

Reflections on a Distinction Project from Actor and Director
Phil Watson in "An Iliad"
Struggle and Understanding
By Phil Watson
Watson is a senior in Theater Studies at Duke who recently presented his senior distinction project, An Iliad, in Shaeffer Theater.
The experience of preparing and performing a distinction project in physical acting (An Iliad), with an emphasis on movement and voice, was taxing. Projects like mine are explorations; they are adventures. I set out to understand more about my art and myself, and I blinked and found myself shuffling home after midnight day after day, exhausted both physically and emotionally, only to do it all over again the next day, but even more.
But the series of breakthroughs I made in those explorations made all that work worth it. Suddenly, my body and mind connected in a new way, and I began seeing things in a different light. I understood.
That's what Duke is to me. Studying classics, or mechanical engineering, or anything, is a process of struggle and understanding, repeated over and over again. You work hard in the library or in the studio, and you learn. You grasp a little more, and then a little more, and then even more. You learn something about yourself and your abilities and about the world at large.
Bringing On the Crazy Fire: A Theater Major's Path
"An Iliad" Production Poster
This past February, Theater Studies and Classical Studies major Phil Watson presented his Senior Distinction project, An Iliad, in Sheafer Theater. The one-man show, by Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare, is a modern day retelling of Homer's classic. The show was directed by Theater Studies alum Kevin Poole.
In the interview that follows, Lauren Feilich talks with Watson about the show and about the path through Duke that led to it. It's a window into one Duke student's transformative encounters with the arts. The interview was published in the Duke Chronicle on January 14 of this year, about a month before An Iliad opened.
In a separate post, Watson and Poole look back on their experience preparing and presenting the show. To round out things out, several other alums of Duke's Theater Studies program who have gone on to careers in the theater or elsewhere have contributed their own reflections.
Senior Phil Watson Reflects On Involvement In Theater Department
By Lauren Feilich, The Chronicle Recess, January 14, 2014
Phil Watson is a Trinity senior majoring in theater studies and classical studies. For his heavy involvement in theater both at Duke and in Durham, Recess spoke with Watson about his years at Duke and his exciting final project for the spring.
The Chronicle: Tell me a little bit about your experience with art at Duke.
Phil Watson: Art at Duke… That's a lot. I started as an art history major, and I spent a fair amount of time at the Nasher. I was amazed at how much it's got. You know, Durham, North Carolina, you don't think of as a hub for culture, but it is. We've got that, and I'm a musician so I played with Hoof 'n' Horn for a little bit, and I slowly became aware of all these different people doing all these different things. I was playing in the pit and looked up one day, during a rehearsal, and I was like, huh, I think I could do that. And here we are.
The thing about Duke is you get the kind of people where everybody is a Renaissance man or woman; you've got engineers who also sing and play violin and do all these different things, and they do them all really well. I just did a workshop with a playwright named Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, and he referred to theater artists as ragamuffin autodidacts, which just cracked me up. I think that's how the arts here work, all these people who are not being forced at all. Everybody doing arts here is self-motivated, and as a result, everything they do has this crazy fire to it.
And so the idea of all these people doing all these different things—it's very punk rock, all these underfunded hanging-on-by-a-thread people fighting tooth and nail to get something out there. That's what I like about this. And so for my show, "The Iliad," my distinction project, I have a table... and a bottle. And I have never seen a bottle turn into so many different things.

What an amazing month it has been for oral anticancer treatment access legislation in the Mid-West! We have seen movement in three states where legislation has been stuck for over three years: Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin! Let us look back and look at what is happening now:
In the 2011-2012 legislative session, the Oral Chemotherapy Parity bill passed unanimously in the State Senate and then failed to get out of committee in the State House. As a result, going into the 2013 session, the coalition understood moving the bill would be a tough sell and decided to launch the campaign with introduction of legislation in the most difficult chamber, the House of Representatives. The group was thrilled this month when HB 4751 was scheduled for a hearing on November 12. Our National State Affairs consultant Zina Cary flew to Lansing to testify and was a fierce defender of the legislation, now called the Cancer Treatment Fairness Act. The second part of the two-part hearing will take place on December 3 where the chair of the committee is expected to call for a vote on HB 4751. Ask your Michigan Representative to support HB 4751 today!
After introducing the oral chemotherapy parity bill in 2011, it took until the conclusion of 2012 to get even one hearing for it. This Tuesday, November 19, SB 99 will have its second hearing in front of the Senate Insurance and Financial Institutions Committee. The first hearing was for sponsor testimony, allowing bill sponsors to give insight and background information on the legislation before other parties testified in favor or against the bill. This second hearing is an opportunity for the Ohio coalition to explain the importance of the legislation and make the case as to why it is critical that Ohio join the 27 other states to enact this type of legislation. Has your Ohio State Senator heard from you?
The last two months in Wisconsin have rendered not one, but two hearings in committees from both chambers, listening to testimony for and against the Cancer Treatment Fairness Act, with the IMF's state affairs consultant, Zina Cary, testifying in the Assembly in October. The IMF's Grassroots Liaison, Aimee Martin, also joined forces with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) to hold a lobby day in Madison on November 7, which attracted advocates from across the state to the Capitol to meet with their legislators. Here is a sampling of the stories that were shared in Wisconsin. Last week, the Wisconsin legislature adjourned until mid-January. During this waiting period, we must keep up the momentum and the constant contact with those legislators that are still undecided on the legislation. Share your support by emailing them today!

This part fixes the following symptoms:
** Recommend 2 people to do this job **Turn the circuit breaker to the range off. Pulled the range out, removed the 4 stove knobs, unscrewed the 2 black screws for each stove control. Then removed four white screws from the ends of the control panel assembly. Opened the oven door and removed the four black screws that hold the bottom of the control panel assembly. Pulled the assembly out. From the inside of the assembly, I removed the ribbon cable from the circuit board (you'll notice there's one on the new assembly). Then, I unscrewed the four silver screws that hold the circuit board in place. Carefully removed the circuit board, the 4 stove controls, slid out the 4 stove lights and popped out the 4 red stove light covers. With a nutdriver, I removed the four silver nuts that hold the black metal piece to the assembly.With the new assembly, started by putting the black metal piece in place (4 nuts) and inserted the red stove light covers, put the circuit board in place (sliding the ribbon cable from the new assembly near its port). Screwed in the 4 silver screws, then carefully attached the ribbon cable to the circuit board. Reattached the 4 stove controls (2 black screws for each) and slid in the 4 stove lights. Screwed in the 4 white screws at the ends of the control panel assembly and the four black screws for under the assembly. Turned the power back on. Good to go!

Were these instructions helpful?
I followed the one description from another consumer, and it was basically exactly as he said. The only tricky part was removing the circuit tape from its original place. We accidentally broke the tiny plastic strip that held it because it was so fragile. Luckily that didn't seem to affect the new one staying in place once we inserted it. The other strange thing was that there was a ring of cardboard around the circuitry that we decided not to put back the way it was. Seemed strange that it was there, as it was flammable. But everything has been working perfectly since.

In case you missed the Survivor Series last night, Sheamus cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase and captured the WWE Heavyweight Championship just shortly after Roman Reigns defeated Dean Ambrose in the tournament finals. Well, reports have now surfaced that the decision to do that was made just a couple of hours before the pay per view started. Management was still debating the idea all day long.

LONGMONT — Baseball players don't want to be stuck inside.
"I think we've had 19 days indoors," said Erie second baseman Eli Wilden.
The Tigers obviously aren't alone this spring, given Mother Nature's stranglehold on the elements. Friday at Bill Stephens Field, Erie took out its frustration on No. 10 Skyline, pounding out 27 hits in a 19-3 rout of the Falcons in a Tri-Valley League game.
"This is just a testament to the hard work these guys are putting in," said Erie coach Harold Simmons, whose team improved to 3-0 overall and 1-0 in league play. "It's just nice to get out here finally. It's been a long spring; I think we've been outside five days."
The Tigers all but put the game away in the second inning, scoring eight runs on eight hits and chasing Falcons starter Aaron Soriano.
Every player in the Erie lineup had at least two hits — Ryan Fesmire and Dillon Reider each had four. Wilden hit two doubles and drove in five runs.
"We just got our tails kicked," said Skyline coach Mike Hoog, whose team dropped to 5-1 and 1-1. "It's easy to get a false sense of where you are, and then you play a little better competition and you have to step up and play. We didn't do that today."
Adam Reigle was the bright spot offensively for the Falcons, going 3-for-3. He had two doubles and one RBI.

Federal prosecutor Cliff Stricklin asked former Qwest president Afshin Mohebbi this afternoon why he didn't sell millions of stock options during a period when he and other executives were telling their boss, Joe Nacchio, that revenue targets he was setting were too hard to meet.
But U.S. District Judge Edward Nottingham didn't allow Mohebbi to answer. Nottingham is presiding over the trial of former Qwest CEO Nacchio,who is charged with 42 counts of insider trading. The trial is now in its third week.
Under questioning by assistant U.S. attorney Cliff Stricklin, Mohebbi said he had $8 million worth of vested options in January, and by May the stock was worth about $4 million.
Stricklin asked why he hadn't sold the stock.

Stern has begun his cross examination of Mohebbi, who started working at Qwest during a period when the company was launching a planned merger of regional Bell telephone company US. West.
As part of planning for the merger, investment banking firm Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette performed an extensive review of both companies on which it based five-year revenue and earnings projections for the merged entity.
Stern hammered on that study as he cross-examined prosecution witnesses. Projections that the company gave to Wall Street after the merger were based in large part on that study.
But the study didn't forsee that the market for telecommunications services would begin to dry up as a recession took hold of the country beginning in 2000.
The government contends that Nacchio knew the company was facing financial difficulty when he painted a rosy picture for investors of the company's growth prospects. He is charged with insider trading in the sale of $100.8 million in stock during the first five months of 2001.
Mohebbi testified this morning that discussions grew tense over what sales projections should be given to Wall Street analysts and that documents filed with federal regulators included statements attributed to him that he never made.
Mohebbi said that a number of department heads gathered to describe what they were doing to make revenue targets, during which Betsy Bernard, then head of the company's mass markets division, said she hadn't been able to reach the revenues projected for her group.
Steve Jacobsen, former head of Qwest global markets, "became very upset at Ms. Bernard's presentation and told her "I don't understand why you just can't close the gap,'" Mohebbi said, adding that Jacobsen had been able to close the projected gap in his department.
Mohebbi described Jacobsen as unusually agitated, and said he took a document and threw it at Bernard. Nacchio told Jacobsen to apologize, he added.
Mohebbi said that documents the company sent to the Secruities and Exchange Commission listing items that he supposedly told investors at a conference were wrong.
The documents said that at two seperate conferences Mohebbi told investors he was "comfortable" with the guidance Qwest was giving Wall Street.
Mohebbi said he never reviewed nor signed the documents submitted in the first quarter of 2001 to the regulatory agency.
"I wouldn't make that statement, that I was comfortable with the guidance," he said.
"Who filled out this form?" asked prosecutor Cliff Stricklin
"I believe it was filled out and sent by someone in the legal department," Mohebbi answered.
Mohebbi also described an email he left on Nacchio's chair that said it would be a "huge stretch" to make revenue targets that Nacchio was setting for his executives.
If the company wasn't able to generate substantial amounts of recurring revenue by April and May 2001, the memo said, the amount of non-recurring revenues, which came from one-time deals, would be "too large to deal with," he said.
By that time, the memo suggested, the company had not been very successful in snaring recurring revenues.
"Our track record in this area is not that good, as you know," he wrote.

Reauthorization of ESEA: Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA)
On December 10, 2015, President Obama signed into law a reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). Previously referred to as No Child Left Behind (NCLB), the newly reauthorized ESEA is being referred to as the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). This new law makes many changes to key programs that we administer. States, however, will be given a transition period to work through these changes, with much of the new law going into effect in the 2017-18 school year. We will continue to review the law in depth and will keep you posted on new information as we move forward.

Dallas Center-Grimes and Pella Christian played one another close yesterday, but it was the visiting school that toppled the Eagles in baseball and softball action.

Pella Christian's ball clubs keep on rolling, and last night they picked up victories over Pleasantville.

A close game and a blowout went Pella Christian's way last night in doubleheader softball action.
Keywords: Pella Christian Softball, Today's Local Sports
The Pella Christian softball team renews their friendly rivalry with Des Moines Christian tonight.
Pella Christian's softball team started their 2014 campaign on the right foot, defeating Montezuma by a score of 9 – 4.
The baseball/softball teams in the Little Hawkeye Conference get the advantage of "extra time" to prepare for the Mustangs and Fillies of Dallas Center-Grimes to enter the conference when they start play again in 2014.
The 2013 softball season for the Pella Christian Eagles was a discovery year for Coach Nate Van Wyk.
Two big home wins stick out for Pella Christian softball coach, Nate Van Wyk from this past summer season.
Runs came at a premium for most of the first "half" of the season for Pella Christian's softball team.
There will always be "what-if's" after a season if you're a head coach.
Coach Nate Van Wyk had a three-person pitching staff, his team had to deal with injuries and everything a typical softball season entails.
Fielding a question about his pitching staff just about every day, Pella Christian softball coach, Nate Van Wyk, had a simple answer he gave people who would ask him why he went to three different pitchers in a ballgame.
The Pella Christian softball team lost three seniors at the conclusion of their season a few weeks ago that were workhorses on and off the diamond.
The 2013 Pella Christian softball team was comprised of several girls who were looking for their roll. Whether it be offensive contributor, pitcher, leader, or some other key factor, the Eagles started filling those slots in quickly as the season progressed.
Four members of the 2013 Pella Christian softball team made it to the all-conference team this season.
Two inductees to the 2013 Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union's Softball Hall of Fame each have a local connection.
Keywords: Central Softball, Pella Christian Softball, Today's Local Sports
Though they did lose in their first round playoff match-up to North Mahaska last week, the younger members of the Pella Christian softball team gained a boatload of experience, not just from actually playing the game, but from the seniors on the team.
Starting this season with no clear-cut number one pitcher, the Pella Christian softball team and Coach Nate Van Wyk decided it was best for his team to pitch by committee for the 2013 campaign.
In a game that saw five home runs, four of them for Pella Christian, the Eagles were defeated by North Mahaska last night, 12 – 8, in the first round of the Class 2A regional softball tournament.
In a rematch from early June, Pella Christian and North Mahaska's softball teams will both be trying to extend their seasons by one game tonight when they go head-to-head in the first round of the Class 2A regional softball tournament.

Gingrich says he's retooled his pitch to be more positive and solutions-oriented, a move away from his sometimes-caustic attacks on Romney's record at the investment firm Bain Capital. But he relished a chance to knock Santorum, who suggested last week that women should not serve in military combat.
"I just think Rick completely misunderstands the nature of modern warfare," Gingrich said. "The fact is if you are serving in uniform in Iraq or Afghanistan ... you're in combat, whatever your technical assignment."
Gingrich's wife, Callista, has begun speaking publicly on his behalf after months of standing silently at his side. Her willingness to step out reflects an effort to improve his standing with female voters, who polls show have been particularly skeptical of his candidacy. One reason may be a marital history that includes two divorces and acknowledged infidelities.
Gingrich's supporters dismiss Santorum's rise as rookie luck, suggesting the former Pennsylvania senator has simply been the beneficiary of the air war that's been trained on Gingrich.
"Santorum is not the recipient of 13,000 false advertisements in Iowa, Florida and South Carolina," Tyler said, writing off Santorum's recent victories as "meaningless" because the states he won will not award delegates until later in the spring.
Gingrich and his advisers have mapped out a strategy focusing on Super Tuesday states including Georgia, Oklahoma, Ohio and Tennessee; Alabama and Mississippi, which hold primaries March 13; and Texas, whose primary is April 3. That state's governor, Rick Perry, endorsed Gingrich after dropping out of the Republican presidential contest last month.
Campaign officials insist fundraising is going well enough for Gingrich to be competitive in a number of states. But he hasn't run any television advertising since the Florida primary, nor has the Winning Our Future super PAC. The group's major patron, casino magnate Sheldon Adelson's family, has contributed $11 million to the super PAC but hasn't announced plans for any further financial help.
With so many competitive primaries and caucuses looming and attention focused on the contest between Romney and Santorum, some supporters are asking whether Gingrich's luck may have finally run out. He vehemently pushes back on that suggestion.
"I'm still here," he told tea party supporters, to loud applause.
Bob Walker, a former Pennsylvania congressman and a top adviser to Gingrich, pleaded for patience.
"People who are out there calling for him to get out don't seem to understand his whole political career," Walker said. "We always knew it would be a long campaign. This is just one more example of the campaign taking its course."

GOP Leads in Mississippi; Fletcher Elected Governor in Kentucky
Byline: Stephen Dinan, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
JACKSON, Miss. - Republican Haley Barbour seemed likely this morning to unseat Mississippi Democratic Gov. Ronnie Musgrove - part of what Republicans hoped would be a clean sweep of the 2003 gubernatorial elections.
With 72 percent of the precincts reporting, Mr. Barbour had 325,233 votes, or 52 percent of the total, and Mr. Musgrove had 290,754 votes, or 46 percent. Electoral observers described the turnout as very heavy for a state race in a nonpresidential year.
In last night's other gubernatorial election, in Kentucky, Republican U.S. Rep. Ernie Fletcher defeated state Attorney General Ben Chandler. With all precincts reporting, Mr. Fletcher won by 55 percent to 45 percent and will replace outgoing Democratic Gov. Paul E. Patton, who was term-limited.
However, the Mississippi race was sufficiently close that neither candidate had claimed victory or admitted defeat early this morning.
Jackson TV stations were reporting that Mr. Musgrove had left the campaign headquarters for his home - a sign that no result was expected until later today.
