1/2/13 UPDATE: Due to some holiday staffing issues and now frozen equipment issues, Waste Management is running behind in picking up Christmas trees. They are playing catch up this week and next. If you are concerned that you have been missed, please call Waste Management directly at 887-0402.
Carson City is pleased to once again offer Christmas Tree Recycling in cooperation with Capitol Sanitation/Waste Management, Inc. Christmas trees can be placed curbside on your regular collection day or taken to one of the drop-off locations. Trees will be recycled into woodchips at the Carson City Landfill and given to local residents free of charge. This program continues to be a huge success. Carson City would like to thank everyone for their participation. Last year we were able to redirect 36-tons of wood waste from our landfill.
Curbside collection will be from December 31st to January 4th on your regular trash day. If trees are longer than six feet, please cut them up into sections no longer than six feet.
- JC Penney Parking Lot
- North Town Plaza/Near Bully's
- Carson City Landfill, 3600 Flint Dr
- Capital Sanitation, 5560 Sheep Dr
- Between the Carson City Public Works Corporate Yard and Treatment Plant on Airport Rd (Previously Butti Way)
Trees left curbside after January 4th will be disposed of as garbage and will need to be cut into three foot sections so they will fit into the Waste Management trucks.

Mural planned for underpass on Cooper Street
Volunteers and Memphis College of Art students hope to liven up the underpass on Cooper Street at Peabody Park with a vibrant mural.
A group led by Betsy Robinson has launched a fundraising campaign on ioby to raise the $1,655 needed to bring the mural to life. The group has raised $750 so far and says work on the mural, which would be located on the railroad underpass on Cooper between Higbee Avenue and Central Avenue, could begin June 1 and be completed by August 1.
"So many people drive under this forgotten trestle on a daily basis," the group stated in its fundraising announcement. "It is dark and dingy, yet it is in the center of a great neighborhood. By painting a colorful mural the aesthetics and esteem of the neighborhood and its members will be increased."
Projects like the proposed mural, while they may seem like minor improvements in the grand scheme of things, can have a profound impact. In 2001, the Cooper-Young Historic District trestle, which hovers over Cooper near Central, was dedicated. The 150-foot long steel sculpture depicting homes and businesses in the neighborhood has since served as the "front door" to Cooper-Young.
Speaking of Cooper-Young, the place is booming.
The Cooper Young Business Association says activity in the neighborhood is at an all-time high, with 187 businesses, including 16 that have opened since January, operating in the area. The business association recently hung 26 banners, featuring images of Cooper-Young business owners and patrons, on street poles in the area, launched a new logo for the neighborhood and made improvements to the gazebo area at the intersection of Cooper and Young Avenue.

King and Vilsack Debate For Fourth Time At Orange City
(Orange City) -- Republican Steve King and Democrat Christie Vilsack faced off in a fourth debate held last evening (Thursday) at Northwestern College in Orange City. The two sparred on issues relating to immigration, gun control, and even the farm bill. Recent polls show a narrowing of the gap between Congressman Steve King and his challenger, Democrat Christie Vilsack, but King says he anticipated as much, and he says his campaign is still on track.
Listen to
Following last evening's debate, King says the differences between himself and Christie Vilsack are becoming more defined. He says Vilsack is proving that she is nothing more than a liberal.
Listen to
For her part, Christie Vilsack believes she won the debate, comparing it to a football game.
Listen to
Vilsack says the time allotted during a debate is often not enough time to fully explain her ideas, so she encourages voters to seek her website.
Listen to
Vilsack says if there is one issue that resonates the most with the people of the 4th District, it would be the farm bill. She says there isn't any other legislation more important than the farm bill, and she again is critical of King's lack of leadership.
Listen to
The two Congressional candidates are scheduled to have four more debates, with one in Sioux City.

text: Home- Campus Life- Volunteerism- Max A. Shacknai COVE- Programs- Interfaith Service Interfaith Service Initiative The COVE is working closely with the Office of the Chaplains to develop and coordinate an Interfaith Service Initiative in response to President Obama's Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge. Menu Menu Mission Our goal is to have a long-term impact on campus by increasing the number of Colgate students both engaged in service and engaging one another in intentional conversations about their beliefs and values. We hope to inspire students to reach across their differences to find common ground in their daily lives – both at Colgate and beyond. Interfaith Service Trip to Germany We are currently planning an interfaith service trip to Gottingen, Germany, for the summer of 2013. The goal of this trip is to bring together students of diverse belief systems to bond over service, and to foster these students' commitment to interfaith literacy. Stay tuned for additional details, or contact the COVE at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information. Past Programming Initially, work centered on domestic poverty and educational opportunity, but as the initiative has gained momentum, it has expanded to conduct programs such as the following: A volunteer trip to the Johnson Park Community Center, a place that promotes positive change in the heart of Cornhill (the poorest neighborhood in the City of Utica, New York) Disaster relief efforts following flooding in central New York following hurricanes Irene and Leigh A Martin Luther King, Jr. Day lunch conversation on interfaith service A movie screening of Flow with an ensuing discussion of the importance of clean water across many belief systems A 10-hour fast culminating in a conversation about hunger And, a meeting with interfaith activists Georg and Wilma Iggers Student Experiences Matthew Knowles '15 "The experience [of volunteering in Johnson Park Community Center in Utica, N.Y.] opened my eyes to the poverty and suffering of people, not only in the city of Utica, but in the entirety of upstate New York as well. As an interfaith community, we discussed the implications of this poverty and what our faiths, or lack thereof (I am an agnostic), oblige us to do about it. As a result, I plan to do research next summer on what political policy changes would be most effective to alleviate this poverty and promote education throughout the state. It is for these reasons that the interfaith community at Colgate University has had an undeniably positive influence on not only my experience here, but the entire community." Christopher Donnelly '15 [When hurricanes Irene and Leigh hit the upstate New York community, students involved in the interfaith initiative decided to take action.] I do not believe that all religions are the same, because I have absolutely seen differences between them. But through interfaith service and discussion, I have seen people come together, and have seen so many ways in which our religions preach similar messages. Don't tell me that people of different religions are just too different to work together; I've seen it, and it's beautiful.

Sunburn is the term for red, sometimes swollen and painful skin. Sunburn can vary from mild to severe. The extent depends on your skin type and the amount of exposure to the sun. Sunburn is a serious risk factor for skin cancer and for sun damage.
Sunburn is caused by overexposure to UV rays from the sun.
Factors that increase your chance of sunburn include:
The symptoms of sunburn vary from person to person. You may not notice redness of the skin for several hours after the burn has begun. Peak redness will take 12-24 hours.
Symptoms can include:
A mild sunburn does not often require a visit to the doctor.
See your doctor if you have a severe burn or if your burn symptoms are not improving after a few days
Call if you have:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and perform a physical exam. For more severe cases of sun damage, you may be referred to a doctor who specializes in skin disorders.
Treatment depends on the severity of the sunburn. The first and most important step in treatment involves getting out of the sun at the first sign of redness or tingling. Stay out of the sun until the skin is fully healed. This may take several weeks.
In addition, you can do the following:
To prevent sunburn, you must shield your skin from the sun's rays.
Keep in mind that water is not a good filter. You can become sunburned while swimming or snorkeling. You can also become sunburned during the winter and on cloudy or foggy days.

After a disappointing fourth round loss in Paris, Rafael Nadal will be highly focused on defending his turf at The All England Club next week.
The Mallorcan Matador will be working the Nike Double Bold Men's Tennis Polo Shirt ($48) in white which features a 2-button placket and a shadow dot print design. This top will be paired with the white Dri-FIT Woven Men's Tennis Short ($38) with its window pane design and slightly longer length.
The Air Max Courtballistec 1.3 makes its return but this time it's made specifically for the grass with nubbies on the sole and featured in white + purple (a royal color for the current king of grass - how fitting.)
Rafa will also sport the Wimby colors of purple + green on the headband and wristbands during his defense.
The polo and shorts were taken from the Nike UK site so I'm hoping the actual pieces he wears will have the purple Nike swooshes and NOT the black.
But the big question is: will Rafa be fit enough to defend his Wimby crown after his recent knee issues? Well, according to The All England Club's Twitter, he's already there:
UPDATE: Proof is in the puddin' peeps. Check it.

Yay! Purple.ReplyDelete
Yay! Green.
Boo!!! Long shorts.
Hope he shows (fully healed) and doesn't cause further injury. Then I hope he rips off the outfit and struts around court for three hours.
*books flight back to Wimby*
- AnonymousJune 16, 2009 at 11:34 AM
saw him today practising in wimbledon. looked real good , a few ball out of the court tho . it hink he was wearing this outfit as wellReplyDelete
babz: blogger thief!ReplyDelete
natch: Nekkid Rafa is always bettah - but I guess we must all deal with him clothed. Boo. But all white outfits can great when soaking wet with rain or sweat.
I'm imagining a torrential rain storm during a 5-setter and a sweat-soaked Rafa gets caught in it after the new roof breaks down.
anon 2:34 - DO TELL! Anything else you'd like to divulge??? How'd his hitting look??? Any weirdness with the knees???
- AnonymousJune 16, 2009 at 11:50 AM
hitting looked good. was hitting ball very hard. was asking the hitting partner if he was hitting in or not. federer was also there and roddick. it was funny though cos soderling was playing on the court next to nadal with cilic. also peng shais mum was in total ore with nadal hahaReplyDelete
good stuff anon - thanks! movement was ok as well? i've been hearing he was practicing without taping around the knees.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 16, 2009 at 12:09 PM
yh he had a small taping around the knee, movement didnt seem a problem.. am working there this week, so went to the practice courts during spare time. sharapova looked good too hitting well. gulbis also looking good. safin and hewitt were hitting together twice todayReplyDelete
Aww Rich...ReplyDelete
I linked back to three of your posts. *sniff* Don't be like that.
babz: you can NEVER take me seriously - well not often and not on DtL. Steal away!!! You always have my blessing B.ReplyDelete
anon: good stuff - i'm not sure what you'll be doing there but if you'd like to send over blogs here and there (anonymously of course) I'd be happy to publish your anecdotes. PPPPPLease!
>>was hitting ball very hard<<ReplyDelete
Hard and hopefully deep! That how I like it;)
Seriously though, I'm glad to hear that he seemed to be fine!
Now that we have the outfits of Fed, Rafa, Muzza and ChokerAna, where is the stuff Serena and Masha are gonna wear? There are sketches on prodirect, but no real pics yet...
Hard and hopefully deep! That how I like it;)ReplyDelete
ahh, you're after my own heart maja. he looks rhythmic too. *faints*
yeah, anxiously awaiting those duds.
Love the purple swooshes :)ReplyDelete
Wimbledon themed wrist bands!ReplyDelete
RIch, don't give me blessings! I *will* take advantage of it, see if I don't. ;)ReplyDelete
Do you think the subtle purple stripes will actually be on the wristbands? I hope so - I love silly twists like that.
sorry about anon, didnt really look for an identity. ssure ill do some updates when im there. i was there for training for security at the championships.ReplyDelete
ross hutchins also was running around the courts in his yellow duds. today murray looked fierce and looks a real contender. they all seem to be hitting with hitting partners. i only saw a few hitting together. hewitt safin..cilic soderling...
"he looks rhythmic too."ReplyDelete
*joins Rich in fainting*
BTW, I'm sure the new roof will break straight away and fingers crossed for LOTS of rain. It will give Rafa more time to rest AND if he's out on court when it chucks it down, we'll be there to tie him to the net, so that we can slowly watch his new white outfit go transparent...no?
larcher de brito was also hitting. she was hitting bad in my opinions many shots were going out, her hitting partner looked better. she also was serving serveral serves out and had to restrain herself from basher her racket. funny enough she wernt screaming when she hit the ball. it was a kind of wheezing pant. when she does get the ball in though its a good hit.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 16, 2009 at 1:10 PM
did someone say safin?!! rich please post more stuff about him if you can the guy is retiring for crying out loud and he's so hot i could cry :PReplyDelete

i took a video of nadal but its of pooor quality i thinkReplyDelete
"Hard and hopefully deep! That how I like it"ReplyDelete
Now Maja's making me orgasm. ;)
No chance of that new roof leaking. It started pouring during the Agassi match and we were all dry as a bone. It did get hot and steamy, though. Perfect conditions for Rafa's clothing to stick to him.
- anonanonJune 16, 2009 at 4:04 PM
rafa was wearing a white crew neck top today not the collared one (as you can see from the pics)...i didn't see any taping either...he was hitting with his old friend Bartolome Salva VidalReplyDelete

hmmm maybe this blog should be called "up his crack" instead of "down the line"ReplyDelete
ROFL!!! Nice moves anon.ReplyDelete

No more pink? When are the sleeveless shirts making a comeback?ReplyDelete
"Even we weren't expecting that." LOL!!!ReplyDelete
I really hope Rafa will be able to defend his title. Go away stupid injuries!!!!
Now I'll doze off to dreamland imagining Rafa tied to the net, getting all wet. Oh, that even rhymes! LOL
Oh and I totally forgot: FLOVE that he wears official Wimby colours!! SO much better than the preppy gold, hehe.ReplyDelete
OMG So! I never even picked up on that - the colors of Wimby. I wonder if he'll wear purple and green undies underneath those whites?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 17, 2009 at 3:59 PM
this time it's a purple cursed color....lol!ReplyDelete
Oh natch don't even get me started on his undies... *drools*ReplyDelete

Fashion Pet's Blue Striped PJ's for dogs are a perfectly comfortable clothing option for your dog. With fun bright colors, soft cotton fabric and long sleeves, these "long-john" pajamas offer maximum comfort and warmth for your dog.
NOTE: Somewhat loose clothing is more comfortable for your pet and looks better than tight clothing. If in doubt, order the next size larger.
1. Measure your pet from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. This measurement is the length needed to determine what size of shirt, sweater, or coat is ideal for your pet.
2. Always go to the next larger size if your measurement is within 1 inch of the maximum.
3. We also recommend to round up to the next size if your pet has a broad chest, bulky build or thick coat.

HTC EVO 4G Can't send messages..
Same issue which has already been resolved in the next update of Zimbra but yet we do not have access to these updates until Zimbra releases a complete update? This is stupid and needs to change, we should have access to minor updates that fix critical issues immediately.
Nothing worse than getting a shiney brand new phone and having it not work, and then finding out there is a fix but you can't get it because zimbra chooses to release updates as large packages instead of individually.
I doubt we will be renewing zimbra, google apps looks better all the time.. Who knows when we will see the update now, everytime an update gets close to the release shown at pm.zimbra.com - it gets pushed back..

Award Excitement
The award season has begun and my favorite event will take place this Sunday, The Golden Globes. The fashion is a little more ambitious and free-spirited than the Oscars, the speeches a little more irreverent (helped along by the presence of alcohol), and there is an overall levity to the proceedings that I enjoy.
Get Invested
Nothing makes the show more entertaining than knowing the nominated work and not knowing if you will plunge into a rage when your favorite loses or erupt in elation when your hand-picked winner wins.
Made for Television
You may want to start with what never played in the theater in the first place. Check out the nominated You Don't Know Jack, Temple Grandin, The Special Relationship, Pillars of the Earth, The Pacific, or Emma. I'm especially interested in the Kevorkian biopic, though I suspect, at the very least, Claire Danes may be the chosen actor for her performance in Temple Grandin.
Films Available for Home Viewing
Many of the nominated movies are still playing at the movie house, but we do have a few for you at the library. They include the Italian film I Am Love, the comedy Easy A, the oft-acclaimed The Kids are All Right, the crime drama The Town, the compellingly odd Alice in Wonderland, the Ozark family drama Winter's Bone, and the science fiction film Inception.
Good Luck!
Have fun willing your favorite movies to win. The blogs will be taking a brief break and will resume publication on Monday 24 January.

Snake and Mongoose Screening at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale AuctionWritten on January 10, 2014 The First Feature film ever screened at a Barrett-Jackson Event January 12-17
The "Snake and Mongoose" movie will be screened January 12-17 (at select times) during the Scottsdale, Arizona, Barrett-Jackson Auction. The screenings will be free to general admission ticketholders, and will be held at the Miller Lite Garage. It's also the first-ever feature film screened at a Barrett-Jackson event, which makes this a unique experience to attendees.
The "Snake and Mongoose" film tells the story of two legendary drag racers, Don ("the Snake") Prudhomme and Tom ("the Mongoose") McEwen. The duo was sponsored by Mattel's Hot Wheels brand in the early 1970s, which brought drag racing into the mainstream. The Snake and Mongoose team traveled the nation, putting on shows for spectators at race tracks, nationwide. With the sponsorship from Mattel, they revolutionized sports marketing forever.
Following the four-day screening of the "Snake and Mongoose" film, the authentic Hot Wheels Haulers and Funny Cars used in the 70s, by Prudhomme and McEwen, will cross the auction block. They will go to sale Saturday, January 18th between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM (PST).
To see the action, tune-in to Fox broadcast stations to see these iconic vehicles go to auction. All other Barrett-Jackson events from January 12-19, 2014, will be aired on Fox Sports 1 (Direct TV - 219) and Fox Sports 2 (Direct TV - 618).
Here are the dates and times for the "Snake and Mongoose" film screenings:
- Sunday, January 12th - 1:00 PM
- Tuesday, January 14th - 5:00 PM
- Thursday, January 16th - 4:00 PM
- Friday, January 17th - 1:00 PM

Nice looking but runs small

Comments about Bellwether Draft Long Sleeve Jersey:
I wear medium and they usually fit perfectly (any brand - US sized). This jersey was way too tight. I wear pro-fit cuts, too - so this was more snug than that.I gave it to my son who would wear a small, and it did fit him in the torso. If you want to try, get a size larger.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

70degrees or so
By Scott
from TX
It is a long sleeve but its made of the same material as the a Distance summer jersey with two layers instead of just one on the arm sections. Like the name says, its good for cool drafty weather above 70 degrees. I'd probably use a vest if its any colder than that since the chest area is not windproof. Fits great...not too loose and not snug. I've used a baselayer with it and its just right.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By mughal
from NY
I like the color combination and brightnes.
A perfect item for those chilly mornings

This item is great for those brisk fall mornings that usually warms up later in the day.
Great jersey for cooler weather
By WhiskeyandRye
from Brooklyn, NY
Great jersey for a great price! Perfect for cooler fall days, or layered with a wind vest or jacket and base layer for really cold days. Temp range is probably 40s-low 60s F. I got the black which looks great - I like the red/white trimmed sleeves. Jersey seems well constructed and the fabric is nice, doesn't trap body odors like some do Features include, rear pockets, full-length zipper, reflective accents, mesh panels in the right places, waist grip - all good.For the fit - I'm 5'11" /170lbs and the size Medium fits me perfectly. Sleeves, and body length perfect; fitted without being constricting and plenty of room for a lightweight base layer underneath. I'd say the description of semi-form fit is appropriate and my size Medium seems about average for that type of fit. I usually swim in club or relaxed fit in my normal size Medium with my build.Give it a try! great deal when it's on sale.
fits small
By Frank
from Minnesota
Thinner fabric, not much for holding heat in, best for days when you just need a little bit more protection from the wind and cool temps. Feels small as the other reviewer mentions. I'd say go up at least a size from your normal if you order.
Tight Fitting
By LW
from Harrisburg, PA
Really tight fitting. I am by no means overweight and I ordered my usual large size; however, I had to return it for an extra large, and even that was snug. Nice jersey, but I wish it wasn't so tight fitting.

Dog Park Video Hits the Internet
June 29, 2013
Wheeling's video letting the world know it needs a dog park is now online, and sniffing it out could help the city win $25,000 or even $100,000 toward building a recreation area for man's best......
OH YEA I hear you Richard... what ever happens..do not ever give him the keys to that vehicle again and yes Alpha..i was standing about 25 feet away. he didn't even look back. That vehicle should have never been where it was to begin with. He didn't run her over. He almost did. She barely got her legs out of the way. If it were not for all the people screaming he would backed right into the gazebo and he wasn't going very slow. Like I said..the man didn't even look behind himself before backing. He could have hurt some one bad or even worse. Thank GOD nobody got seriously injured.

If dog park is built- I think Scatterday should be promoted to the position of "Sanitation Engineer"

Just glad too see that folks in Wheeling are attempting to build something without applying for "grant" money. That being the case, I did my civic duty and voted for the cause.

I am doing VA/PT on a sample web application. I run the nessus scanner and I found some high severity problems. It is related to HP System Management Homepage. The CVE numbers are:
2010-1917, 2010-2531, 2010-2939, 2010-2950, 2010-3709, 2010-2950, 2010-4156, 2011-1540, 2011-1541
I am trying to find exploits and tutorials to exploit these vulnerabilities. I searched on exploit-db.com, http://www.securityfocus.com and http://web.nvd.nist.gov.
I am getting the vulnerability details but unable to find the exploits. I found exploit code for 2010-3709 on explot-db.com but unable to understand how to use it? So
- Can anybody please tell me the sites where I can get exploits for these?
- If anyone can explain me how to exploit those vulnerabilities, I will be very thankful to him.

Plus: The suspect has been identified as 24-year-old James Holmes. By: Jenée Desmond-Harris Posted: July 20 2012 10:14 AM 0 The Washington Post Updated 10:55 a.m. EDT: President Barack Obama canceled his second campaign stop after the Aurora, Colo., mass shooting, CNN reports. He issued the following statement: Michelle and I are shocked and saddened by the horrific and tragic shooting in Colorado. Federal and local law enforcement are still responding, and my Administration will do everything that we can to support the people of Aurora in this extraordinarily difficult time. We are committed to bringing whoever was responsible to justice, ensuring the safety of our people, and caring for those who have been wounded. As we do when confronted by moments of darkness and challenge, we must now come together as one American family. All of us must have the people of Aurora in our thoughts and prayers as they confront the loss of family, friends, and neighbors, and we must stand together with them in the challenging hours and days to come. Updated 10:41 a.m. EDT: Federal authorities say that the suspect in the mass shooting is 24-year-old James Holmes, ABC News reports. A California woman who identified herself as his mother told ABC that her son was likely the culprit, saying, "You have the right person." Earlier: In Colorado's worst mass shooting since the Columbine High School massacre in 1999, a gunman wearing a gas mask set off an unknown gas and fired into a Aurora movie theater at a midnight opening of the The Dark Knight Rises early Friday morning, killing 12 people and injuring at least 50 others, the Washington Post reports: Moviegoers didn't know what was happening and some thought the attack was part of the show. Then they saw a silhouette of a person in the smoke at the front of the theater near the screen, pointing a gun at the crowd ... Some of those injured are children, including a 3-month-old infant who was shot ... The suspect was taken into custody, but no name was released. Oates said there's no evidence of any other attackers. There was also no immediate word of any motive. President Barack Obama said he was saddened by the "horrific and tragic shooting," pledging that his administration was "committed to bringing whoever was responsible to justice, ensuring the safety of our people, and caring for those who have been wounded."

Global cargo airlines hit hard for price fixing
November 10, 2010
In a move that was widely anticipated, the European Commission imposed heavy fines on eleven air cargo carriers today for price fixing.
This was part of a worldwide investigation into air cargo cartel activities, with airlines pleading guilty and paying fines in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea, and ongoing investigations in those countries and others, including South Africa.
Meanwhile the U.S. justice department continues its investigation of freight forwarders guilty of price-fixing. Indeed, they are calling upon shippers to share information on any anticompetitive conduct they may be aware of by calling the Antitrust Division's National Criminal Enforcement Section.
Each company is charged with price fixing in violation of the Sherman Act, which carries a maximum fine of $100 million per offense for corporations. The maximum fine may be increased to twice the gain derived from the crime or twice the loss suffered by the victims of the crime, if either of those amounts is greater than the statutory maximum fine.
While the impact on U.S. shippers has yet to be measured, this issue will be among several addressed at the upcoming National Industrial Transportation League confence next week.
"Along with security, this is something that deserves greater scrutiny," said Richard Macomber, chairman of the NITL air cargo committee."
The League's 103rd Annual Meeting/ TransComp Exhibition, will be held November 14-16, 2010 in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.
The EU commission's four-year investigation into price fixing resulted with fines totaling $1.1 billion. The hardest hit was Air France-KLM, which represents Europe's biggest cargo airline. Its fine was $476 million. Next to be heavily fined was British Airways ($145.6 million) and Singapore Airlines ($104.7 million).

Yeah funny how america got that way. Just a question, but last I looked a few years back, they didnt have a antelope at all. Was just hoping that someone found a eastman in the B&C book so I can put my mind at ease. I have 5 in there, and no slamming or dissing here; just curious..
Also yes cheaper (wally world) oil might be better for the monster buck I am going to get this year, havnt seen to much promising bucks yet, Have a 74 tag, coverd much of 75 (brother has a tag) and 74 the past week and maybe a upper 70's buck so far. Things change though when the rut gets going.
Last edited by justinthedoc; 07-30-2012 at 12:33 PM.
Sent you a pm.
Anyone have an update on how dry it is in Unit 75? I have a tag for this fall and was wondering what conditions were like there.
Its getting pretty bad now, looked good til August the she turned Krispy, dont light a match. Hopefully september will bring some snow.
Thanks for the reply. Just talked to the area game warden this afternoon, he estimates antelope numbers at half of what they were last year. I might not shoot unless it's a really good one, it sounds like they need a break. I'm not sure leaving them to starve this winter is more humane if the feed is gone though.
I work on a ranch, I will be the last one to light a match! I worry about our winter grass and stacks of bales everytime I hear of a fire. We have had more lightning fires than I ever remember this year also with the dry conditions. Our rural fire departments have been doing a great job so far, and the fires that have started haven't had a strong headwind yet at least close to home.
We are headed home from our hunt now. It was better hunting than I expected after talking to the warden. We saw good numbers of adult animals and had a good hunt. We didn't find any giant bucks but got 4 nice ones in the 70's. We scouted 3 days and hunted 3 days so we covered alot of ground to see what we did. One thing we didn't see many of was fawns. We saw very few young antelope compared to what we saw driving home down hwy 287. I'm a rookie antelope hunter but I'd bet the next few years will be tough in 75. A hunting paper I picked up in Riverton had an article saying that same thing.
Congrats on your success!! Any pictures to share? How did the mule deer numbers look while you were out that way? We are headed that direction in 2 weeks to chase elk.
We only saw 1 decent muley buck in 6 days of combined scouting and hunting. It was a 4x4 I'm guessing around 150 from the brief look I got. Lots of does on the private around the creek bottoms. We made it to 8300ft on one of our scouting trips and found some antelope, but no elk. We actually never saw an elk the whole trip including an afternoon in the Bighorns and coming home through the Medicine Bow mountains but our timing wasn't right, it was warm sunny afternoons.
Here is a pic of my antelope. It is taking forever for me to load pics now so I just added one. He wasn't real tall at
14 1/8" but had good cutters and mass, grossed 79". I was real happy with him for the conditions and my experience level. I was starting a stalk on another nice goat and it fed out away from the ditch I planned to use and got out of range before I could get close. I turned and headed back up toward the vehicle and cut a large set of fresh tracks headed the same way I was. I then found a scrape he had made and the spot he had urinated was still wet and fresh in a 35mph wind, so I knew he was close. I came up to the ridge and spotted him 125yds away from me headed across the next flat. I knelt on my bipod and tried to get steady enough to shoot him in the hard wind. I finally turned my shoulders enough to get steady and squeezed the trigger as he walked into my crosshairs. The 140gr Berger VLD from my 264WM took out the heart and broke the far shoulder, dumping him. It was only about a 175yd shot, but about the toughest I've ever made at that range due to the conditions. He was one of the best bucks we saw, and the best one we had a legitimate shot at. We moved him from the flat to the ridge I shot from for a better background for pictures, I didn't shoot him skylined. I've always used Nosler Accubonds from this rifle in the past, and they are still my favorite all-around bullet, but the Berger performed very well. 3 of the 4 goats our group took were shot with my rifle and the Berger dumped them all. We were equipped to shoot 500yds under good conditions with my set-up, but we all prefer to get as close as possible when hunting so our longest shot was 351yds. Since this is my long-range rifle and I don't use it on anything bigger than muleys I think I'll stick with them until they give me a reason not to. For my mountain guns and for larger game I'll stick with my accubonds.

"Those people who found FF Letter Gothic Text too polished can breath a sigh of relief," announced Pinggera upon the release of his newest typeface, FF Letter Gothic Mono. With this family, "Letter Gothic" has returned to its monospaced roots, but it does so in three weights and therefore continues to differentiate itself from the many other digital adaptations of Letter Gothics available.

New Faces to Brighten Wesley Theological Seminary Faculty
Two new scholars –one for the Hebrew Bible and the other to teach the study of evangelism –will be added to Wesley Theological Seminary's faculty in the coming academic year, the school announced.
Paul Kang-Kul Cho will serve as Assistant Professor of Hebrew Bible, and Reverend Dr. F. Douglas Powe, Jr. will serve as the James C. Logan Professor of Evangelism and Urban Ministry at Wesley. Both are to begin their work at Wesley in the 2013-14 academic year.
Cho received a B.A. in Comparative Literature from Yale University, a Master of Divinity degree from Yale Divinity School, and will receive his Ph.D. from Harvard University in May 2013. His dissertation is entitled, "The Sea in the Hebrew Bible: Myth, Metaphor, and Muthos."
Cho is ordained in the United Presbyterian Church and has served as guest preacher at the Formosan Grace Christian Church in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and as children's ministry pastor at the New Haven Korean Church in New Haven, Conn.
"I have dreams for reconciliation between the Asian and African American communities, mutual understanding and cooperation between Korean and English ministries in Korean American churches, contemporary thinking and articulation of what the church might mean by the 'Word of God,' and a more intuitive understanding of language and its use in the Bible," Cho said in a 2007 Yale Divinity School interview.
Reverend Dr. F. Douglas Powe received a B.A. in Economic Management from Ohio Wesleyan University, a Master of Divinity degree from the Candler School of Theology at Emory University, and a Ph.D. in Systematic Theology from Emory University. He is ordained in the United Methodist Church and has focused on evangelistic theology and practices, Pan-Methodism, and the Black church.
"My research in evangelistic theology and practices informs my teaching in these areas by helping students reflect upon the theology informing their evangelism. My goal is to prepare students for various ecclesial contexts and the importance of developing appropriate practices for that context," Powe said.

Hey all,
We've not rolled out Zimbra 5 yet, so I am posting to see if there's any way to accomplish the following:
I have XP
I have Outlook 2007
I have Zimbra Connecter v: ZimbraOlkConnector-4.5.11_GA_1749_4.5.505.msi
Whenever I run the install, I have no problems. However, when Outlook boots, it says the SharingAddin.dll is not compatible, and disables it.
Everything I've read (and I've searched around quite a bit) shows that ZCO 5.x works with 2007, but will 4.5? Or am I stuck with IMAP until we get 5 deployed?

MORRISTOWN - When Price, as in Brett, is right, River is hard to beat.
The Bulldogs' veteran mentor had a feeling, as did many others in attendance, that the Pilots' senior standout wouldn't shoot like he did the previous game (Tuesday night) against Bishop Rosecrans (0-for-11 to start the game), and he didn't.
Price connected on 10 field goals (out of 17 tries), half of them beyond the arc, en route to a game-high 25 points Friday night as River (17-7) flew past Bridgeport (7-17) in an Ohio Division IV boys' sectional co-final at Union Local High School, which ended 64-35.
In addition to Price's third 21-point-plus game against the Bulldogs (he scored 71 total points), classmates Cody Caldwell and Matt Marconi added 12 and 11, respectively. Caldwell, who was held scoreless in Tuesday's win, led River with seven rebounds. Price landed six. Marconi charted five boards, five assists and a trio of steals.

Hardware and software situation :
- Exchange 2003 vSphere VM running Windows 2003 R2
- ZCS 7.0 on a CentOS 5.5 x64 installation - 3 cores and 4 gigs of ram dedicated to it
- IBM x3650 with 2 dualcore Xeon 3Ghz (so 2x 2 cores) and 12 gigs of ram (both for the old exchange and new ZCS)
Don't think i need to say running Exchange 2003 these days is a bit hardcore, but the company i work for went private a few years back - so up to now we've been running on extremely cheap EDU licenses. Needless to say we needed a valid alternative to migrate to and after a few months of 'testing the waters' (mainly trying to get Scalix to run properly) - Zimbra provided a perfect alternative for my users.
Mailbox and calendar migration was flawless and despite running into a few small configuration annoyances getting everything up and running with full mailbox migration only took a few days. We decided to opt out of having people use Outlook - so it remains to be seen if people get used to the Zimbra Desktop and Webclient, but i have high hopes

Where are the jobs in air cargo?
April 28, 2011
In the latest survey conducted by the International Air Transport Association, (IATA), just over a third of respondents reported stability in employment numbers in Q1 2011 while 42 percent hired additional staff and less than a quarter cut back.
This split is similar to that seen in the January 2011 survey and as such the weight average balance of responses remains at 59.7 – indicating expansion in employment.
Renewed network expansion or additional capacity introduction continue to driving the increase. But ongoing restructuring activity and a renewed emphasis on cost control in the face of soaring fuel prices drove reductions in employment last quarter.
Regionally, the balance of respondents in the Americas reported employment increases while in Europe employment was stable and in Asia Pacific falls were reported.
Unfortunately, the outlook over the next 12 months has shifted back towards the 50 "no change" mark which indicates stability in employment levels. The weighted average score of 53.2 is a step down from levels seen for most of last year.
"The tendency to increase staffing to manage expanding operations is being tempered by the need to control costs," said spokesmen for IATA.
Indeed, IATA said that several respondents report "recruitment freezes" over the period ahead. Airlines are seeking additional productivity gains to offset rising costs.

Review: Already own the Every/Any bag in the Magazine pattern and receive compliments each time I carry it..really...each and every time...but I found myself needing a little extra room for my cell phone and keys. The Baguette bag was the answer :) It is not only colorful and easy to carry, it is the perfect size to fit my everyday needs. It easily holds cell phone, credit card holder, cash, keys, coins and even room for a small pair of reading glasses, without being heavy :) Only four stars because it ... More details

Review: This clutch is so much more beautiful in person. It completely exceeded my expectations. Has a "Designer Look" without the price-tag! Much bigger than I anticipated and very sturdy-considering it is made of candy wrappers! I can't wait to put this to use-it easily fits my bunch of keys, mobile and room to spare! I am going to buy more of these to give as gifts-my mum has all ready said she would love one for her Birthday!!

Black & White Nitty Gritty
17/02/2011 22:27 by Amsterdamize
When I bring my camera on my rides around town I often switch it to monochrome. It's either because of the type of light that day, the type of weather (or a combination thereof), the type of mood I'm aiming for (dependent on my own mood, bien sur) or just because I want to play a little with dark tones because it's so forgiving when you shoot from the hip while on the move. Even failed ones (technically that is) then come out right, with some artistic flair.
I think black & white enables the photographer to focus more on the subject at hand and to more easily frame the mis-en-scene. Combined with the aforementioned forgiving nature, I'm digging it more and more. Oh, and the subjects speak for themselves; poetry in motion.
And after all that 'hard work', a bike blogger deserves a little refreshment, for that last stretch.
Calling it a day with a couple of curious minds who wanted to know...;)
I hope you enjoyed this & your own ride.

I see this relentless need to beat a dead horse as posturing and turf battles between bloggers who see themselves as citizen journalists, giving their opinions to those yearning for knowledge and entertainment, and writers, whose livelihood is threatened by the "insurgent" bloggers.
To celebrate Mardi Gras, Another Wine Blog is offering you a chance to win an autographed copy of a new cookbook by New Orleans' World Class Chef John Besh.
I have my way, it will be the last time that I ever set foot into a restaurant on Valentine's Day. It is a day when the lure of a huge payday entices restaurateurs and chefs, who have spent years building a following and reputation, to over-book and under-deliver.
Many years ago my mother wanted to see Bob Seger when he was in town. While I liked his old stuff, I had never been much of a fan of anything from about Night Moves on. But mom wanted to go, and one of my friends wanted to see him too, so we all got [...]
Our visit to New Orleans last month as part of Harrah's Greatest Weekend Ever was met with such hospitality and warmth that we feel like extended family. We cannot think of a city that deserves a trip to the Super Bowl more!
We have all seen the horrific scenes on the news from the unthinkable tragedy unfolding in Haiti. There are so many people there suffering, and so many people here wanting to help. In the wine community many of us are pulling together with Brother, Can you Spare a Bottle? and Palate Press: The Online Wine [...]
Wines rated 90 and above by Robert M. Parker, Jr., Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator's Top 100 didn't earn a medal. Wines rated much lower by the aforementioned sources were judged much higher by our competition judges. Serving temperature may have been a factor.
Garlic may seem ubiquitous and ordinary, after all it seems to be a staple in the cuisine of almost every culture, but knowing more about it can really elevate your cooking to new heights. On the other hand, mistreatment of this wondrous knob of deliciousness can ruin an otherwise fantastic dish. If you are serious about cooking great food, then garlic needs to be one of your best friends.
Our counters were cluttered. We had accumulated a number of bottles half-filled with wine that we either didn't drink because we didn't care for them, or we had wine left over from an event where there were too many wines to consume in one evening. So, what do you do with all that wine? Make a wine reduction! It's pretty simple but takes a bit of time and attention, but here's how you do it.
Grüner Veltliner is not one of the most well known wine grapes on the planet. Wines made from this grape tend to have a spicy nose of white pepper, floral perfume, and either peach or tropical fruit. The Weinrieder 2006 Grüner Veltliner Alte Reben is an excellent example of just how good this wine can be.
In the current economy, many people are looking for an alternative to traditional champagne to help ring in the New Year. Last year we told you about Cava from Spain, and we've found a few other sparklers to share with you this year as well.

Some things can only be experienced, and no matter how eloquently or accurately they are described, words really fall short. I think all great wines are like that.

Amazing. You can put your name on a list for wine or beer that sells out in 10 minutes. Now that's customer service. The kind you might expect at a small store in the older neighborhoods of a big city or a small town. Or if you're an important customer at the big wine retailer.

I've been a long time Nava backer, but I must admit to being blinded by the JBJ lights. Now that that spotlight has died down, when do we give Nava his due?
The kid consistently contributes in big ways, both offensively and defensively. I would love to see the Sox stick with Nava in LF when Papi comes back. Gomes can platoon with Papi, as the big guy will no doubt need plenty of "rests."
I'm not arguing that Nava is a long term solution, but I think he would be a great compliment to an already excellent OF. Ells, Vic, & Nava make a pretty potent threesome on both O & D.
You gotta love his grit!

Cream Of The Crop at 2003 Grand National Roadster ShowWritten on May 23, 2003 2003 Grand National Roadster Show -- San Mateo
Oh, how time flies! It seems that we just had the 50th anniversary of the Grand National Roadster Show and suddenly it's the 54th. Over the past decade, the Grand National Roadster Show has had its blah years. It moved three-times, was once bannered under the National Roadster Show, and now it's the Grand National Roadster Show in the San Mateo Expo Center, about 30 miles south of its original location in the heart of Northern California's San Francisco bay area.
The main buildings were all at capacity this year. The rods, customs, street machines, and trucks filled the two center buildings, while the new import section took up a third building. From its roots as a rod and custom show, it has expanded into motorcycles, racecars, trucks, restorations, classic, boats, and now sport compact/import cars. This variety certainly attracts the maximum spectators, and so with every business, it's the bottom line that counts--rod and custom shows are no different.
However, the focus is still the America's Most Beautiful Roadster competition. This year about 16 rods vied for the title. The judging for the AMBR took place over the weekend and was announced on Monday night at the event-ending ceremony, as this is now a four-day show. This year's winner George Lange obviously invested lot of time and money with both Hot Rods by Boyd and Bobby Alloway to get his well-deserved win.
Once again, the Grand National Roadster Show offered everyone a bellyful of the best in hot rodding, street machines, and custom cars. They call this show, the Grand Daddy of all the hot rod and custom shows, and after 54 years, it still is the mind poppin' basketful of eye-candy that one does not easily forgo or forget.

The Rod Zombies display featured this cool drag race starting line scene with Jason Pierotti's custom '54 Chevy, racing Bill Gonzales '32 DeSoto. PHR TV fans will remember that it was the Road Zombies whom got Cam and Dean motivated to form the Road Apples!Brian Davis, from Discovery Bay, California, showed his black Wescott-bodied '32 roadster. Built by Leonard Lopez of Dominator Motorsports (Brentwood, CA), it features a Sid Chavers interior and Dave Robello-built 383 Chevy. Look for Tim Kerrigan's Dominator built Red Line Oil Roadster, a '33 Ford with a Ford Racing DOHC 4.6L Cobra drivetrain and outrageous suspension, at this same show next year.Dave Tucci never builds simple hot rods. This year, his Copper Bronze '35 Cyprus roadster was yet another example of the great work coming out of his Marcy, New York, shop. Tucci's Cyprus was one of the AMBR award finalists.You saw it last year at the Detroit Autorama, but it was mothballed to go for another big title. At San Mateo, it finally came back out. George Lange, from Webster Groves, Missouri, won the America's Most Beautiful Roadster Award grand prize with his brilliant red '32 Ford roadster. Built by both Hot Rods by Boyd and Alloway's Hot Rod Shop, the car features extreme detailing with 16 and 20-inch wheels, all-aluminum Chevy 454 power and a Paul Atkins interior.Dr. Mark Van Buskirk, from Crown Point IN, arrived with in style with the old-school favorite, the Khougaz Roadster. Built by Jim Khougaz in 1946 as a dry lakes roadster, it was restored by East Coast Customs and won the Bruce Meyer Hot Rod Preservation Award.Powered by a blown Ardun with "zoomie" headers poking out of the fat front fenders, Keith Tardel at Rex Rods & Chassis built Paul B's '36 Ford Coupe. This black 3-window is heart and soul hot rod stuff.Without doubt, Randy Grubbs' Blastoline Special, powered by a twelve-cylinder Continental aircraft engine, was the show's wildest offering. This huge, 22-foot-long roadster runs an Allison bus transmission and a Rockwell truck rear axle.If you own a hot rod and it's judged "Class Winner" at the Grand National Roadster Show, that's like winning Indy to a drag racer. Our former editor and current Super Chevy Senior Editor, Randy Fish, won this prestigious honor with his '32 Ford highboy roadster known as "32 ZOOM." Of all the tricks, we think the racing-inspired Moroso sheetmetal valve covers won over the judges.
Loliner was the appropriate name for Jim Rydeliys' 1960 Ford Starliner hardtop. With its reworked body, new stance, two-tone paint, and Colorado Custom wheels, it's a real street machine that maintains the custom rod movement that differentiates itself from street machines.Sorry, but it's not the real thing. However, Guido Brenner's replica of the old Red Baron custom show car is nearly complete, with its hand-formed German military helmet top, machine gun and '33 Chrysler "flatmotor."Although they found it resprayed green and stored since 1968, Jim and Stacy Breazeale brought Roy Abendros' Busonic back to its 1963 incarnation. They replicated the Watson-applied spray, but in modern candies, metallics, and flake. This car is a favorite among car magazines. It has even run twice within the pages of PHR.Richard Zocchi faithfully reproduced the '62 Pontiac he showed in 1962, but with one major change: he chopped this one's top. The bigger-than-life cruiser sports one of the smoothest orange fade sprays, period-perfect open-lug chrome wheels with spiders, and crazy taillights.

Photos: 8th inning rally, Soria save, fireworks
The Royals stormed back for a 4-3 win over Boston tonight. Let's look at the photos!
David DeJesus started the rally with a double.
Scott Podsednik is a gamer…he put down a great sac bunt to move DeJesus to third.
After a walk to Alberto Callaspo, Willie Bloomquist came in as a pinch runner for "Bert". Bloomquist stole second base during Billy Butler's at-bat. That set the table for Rick Ankiel, who was 3-for-3 at the time and a triple shy of the cycle. There's no need for a cycle when you drive in a pair with a single! Bloomquist came around to score the go-ahead run.
Joakim Soria and Jason Kendall celebrated after Soria's first save of 2010. Then, it was time for Fireworks Friday presented by Hy-Vee and Pepsi!

Where is Your Plan B? from altweeklies on Vimeo.
To honor National HIV Testing Day — a day meant to raise awareness about the virus — Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio region is offering free HIV testing at three locations in the Cincinnati area.
Free HIV testing is available today at from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at Cincinnati's VA Medical Center (3200 Vine St.) and from 1-5 p.m. at the Lower Price Hill Health Center (2136 E. Eighth St.). The test is done quickly using a method called rapid HIV testing, which produces results immediately.
About 1.1 million people in the United States are living with HIV at any given time, and about one in five of those don't even realize they're infected.
That means those one in five could, at any time, be unknowingly transmitting the disease to their partners, or that they're missing out on taking important preventative measures that could keep the infection from developing into AIDS. The HIV virus is most commonly spread through unprotected sexual contact or sharing needles, or can be passed down from mother to child during pregnancy or shortly after birth. For more basic information about HIV, click here.
In 2012, Planned Parenthood Southwest Ohio provided 1,225 HIV tests amongst its eight facilities, among a number of other preventive services. Currently, Planned Parenthood branches across Ohio are being threatened by Ohio conservatives' efforts to defund the organization, which provides myriad health services in addition to abortion, including cancer and STD screenings, birth control, pregnancy testing and health care for both men and women. State and federal funds used by Planned Parenthood aren't used to fund abortions, which are instead funded by private donations.
If successful, the Republican-controlled Ohio legislature could pass a budget this weekend that would put Planned Parenthood at the back of the line for state funds. A separate set of federal funds would also go to crisis pregnancy centers, which have a history of using scare tactics and false information about abortion.
Under Obama's Affordable Care Act, which will go into effect in 2014, insurance providers will be required to cover HIV testing and birth control.
With a set of initiatives unanimously approved last week, City Council is looking to join the state in combating Cincinnati's human trafficking problem. The initiatives would evaluate local courts' practices in human trafficking and prostitution cases and study the need for more surveillance cameras and streetlights at West McMicken Avenue, a notorious prostitution hotspot. Councilwoman Yvette Simpson, who spearheaded the initiatives, says the West McMicken Avenue study will serve as a pilot program that could eventually branch out to other prostitution hotspots in Cincinnati, including Lower Price Hill and Camp Washington.
Medicare data released yesterday revealed charges and payments can vary by thousands of dollars depending on the hospital, including in Cincinnati. Health care advocates and experts attribute the price disparity to the lack of transparency in the health care system, which allows hospitals to set prices without worrying about typical market checks. CityBeat previously covered the lack of health care price transparency in Ohio here.Duke Energy is the No. 1 utility company polluter in the nation, according to new rankings from Pear Energy. The rankings looked at carbon dioxide emissions, which directly contribute to global warming. Pear Energy is a solar and wind energy company that competes with utility companies like Duke Energy, but the methodology behind the rankings was fairly transparent and based on U.S. Environmental Protection Agency data.
Commentary: "Republicans Continue Voter Suppression Tactics."
City Council approved form-based code yesterday, which Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls has been working on for years. In a statement, Qualls' office called form-based code an "innovative alternative to conventional zoning" that will spur development. "Cincinnati now joins hundreds of cities that are using form-based code to build and reinforce walkable places that create value, preserve character and are the bedrock of Cincinnati neighborhoods' competitive advantage," Qualls said in the statement.
State Sen. Peggy Lehner is looking to amend the Ohio budget bill to add a $100 million voucher program that would cover preschool for three- and four-year-olds. The details of the program are so far unclear, but Lehner said she might put most of the funding on the second year of the biennium budget to give the state time to prepare proper preschool programs. If the amendment proceeded, it would join recent efforts in Cincinnati to open up early education programs to low- and middle-income families. CityBeat covered the local efforts and many benefits of quality preschool here.
Gov. John Kasich says he would back a ballot initiative for a mostly federally funded Medicaid expansion, which the Health Policy Institute of Ohio says would insure nearly half a million Ohioans and save the state hundreds of thousands of dollars in the next decade. CityBeat covered the Medicaid expansion in further detail here.
Policy Matters Ohio released a lengthy report yesterday detailing how the state could move towards clean energy and electric cars and calling for more state incentives for clean energy. The report praises Cincinnati in particular for using municipal policies to build local clean energy and keep energy jobs in the city.
The last tenant at Tower Place Mall is moving out.
Scientists are working on a microchip that could be implanted into the brain to restore memories.
They also found proof that seafloor bacteria ate radioactive supernova dust.
With Republican support and Democratic opposition, the Ohio House Finance Committee approved a budget bill today that would ban comprehensive sex education, defund Planned Parenthood and fund crisis pregnancy centers that pro-choice groups call "anti-choice."
Citing the possibility of "gateway sexual activity," the bill would make it so teachers can be fined up to $5,000 if they explain the use of condoms and other forms of birth control to high school students. It would also prohibit individuals and groups from distributing birth control on school grounds.
The bill pushes abstinence-only education to curtail any promotion, implicit or explicit, of gateway sexual activity. To define such activity, the bill cites Ohio's criminal code definition for "sexual contact," which is defined as "any touching of an erogenous zone of another, including without limitation the thigh, genitals, buttock, pubic region, or, if the person is a female, a breast."
The bill would also redirect federal funding to defund Planned Parenthood and shift funds to crisis pregnancy centers, which CityBeat covered in further detail here.
"Today the Ohio House Finance Committee voted to send our state back to the 1950s," said Kellie Copeland, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Ohio, in a statement. "The Ohio House is doing everything they can to restrict access to reproductive health care and medically accurate information that help Ohioans live healthy lives. (Gov. John) Kasich can stop these dangerous attacks on women's health care. We need him to speak out against these budget provisions and to line-item veto these dangerous measures when they reach his desk."
Researchers have found abstinence-only programs to be generally ineffective. A 2007 study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health found abstinence-only programs have no impact on rates for teenage pregnancy or vaginal intercourse, while comprehensive programs that include birth control education reduce rates.
A 2011 study from researchers at the University of Georgia that looked at data from 48 states concurred abstinence-only programs do not reduce the rate of teenage pregnancy. The study indicated states with the lowest teenage pregnancy rates tend to have the most comprehensive sex and HIV education programs.
When looking at three ways to prevent unintended pregnancies for a 2012 study, the Brookings Center on Children and Families found the most cost-effective policy was to increase funding for family planning services through the Medicaid program. In other words, if governments increased spending on birth control programs, they would eventually save money.
Still, a 2010 study from a University of Pennsylvania researcher found abstinence-only education programs may delay sexual activity. The study, which tracked black middle school students over two years, found students in an abstinence-only program had lower rates of sexual activity than students in the comprehensive program.
At hearings on April 12, anti-abortion groups praised abstinence-only education for promoting chastity.
• Enquirer reporter Sharon Coolidge's use of open records law documented Cincinnati's lax enforcement of lead paint removal orders. She told CityBeat that her coverage included positive impacts in addition to those above in my main column:
The day after her story was published, Mayor Mark Mallory ordered health officials to explain why they hadn't forced problem landlords to clean up their properties.
Three public hearings led to a comprehensive city plan to eliminate childhood lead poisoning by 2010. The plan lowers the medical threshold at which health officials can intervene, thus catching lead poisoning in its earliest stages.
City Council gave the health department more than $1 million to finance reforms. Poor families are getting kits to detect whether their homes are contaminated.
In one of his first acts as new governor, Ted Strickland allowed cities to sue lead-paint producers; Cincinnati is suing Sherwin-Williams.
State lawmakers are considering a new law, named after a family featured in the Enquirer story, to provide $20,000 grants for lead removal.
• A more recent public benefit from open records laws involved the Enquirer suit to obtain secret streetcar vendors' bids. Attorney Jack Greiner, who handles First Amendment issues for the paper, said that Cincinnati's ordinance requires bids be available for public review. Faced with resistance, the Enquirer went to court. Hamilton County appellate judges agreed with the paper, rejecting company arguments that records were exempt from public records law as "trade secrets."
• Unless you're living under a Rock of Cliches, you've read or heard that flu is sweeping the nation. Every sneeze, every cough, every chill and shiver warns us that the Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse is tethering his pale horse at our curb. The catch is that despite breathless news media offerings, little unusual is happening except for an early, aggressive onset of the perennial scourge. Thousands die every year from flu, most of them elderly. It would be news if we didn't. Annual death estimates — hampered by incomplete reporting and similar health problems — range from 3,000 to 49,000.
• An Enquirer Sunday Forum carried Michael Kinsley's column about Hillary Clinton's extensive foreign travel as secretary of state. Kinsley doubts the value of much of her travel but in today's world, "The less important the trip, the more prestige you gain by taking it." Having time and money to waste proves you have time and money to waste . . . even if you're on the taxpayers' clock and paycheck. Maybe that explains an otherwise inexplicable Enquirer revelation that Steve Chabot is a foreign policy expert, citing his extensive foreign travel at taxpayer expense.
• Enquirer reporter Dan Horn produced two nay-saying front page stories. Both were welcome surprises from Cincinnati's "get on the team" daily. One questioned the argument that right-to-work laws provide an economic boost in states like Indiana, Michigan, or, potentially, Ohio. That anti-union policy was a staple topic in my 1950s high school debating days. Economic analysis, like divining why crime rates change, is more complicated than whether union membership is optional or required in a "union shop." Too many union/right-to-work debates — fueled by no-compromise advocates putting re-election before public benefit — ignore complexity.
• A second invocation of skepticism by the Enquirer's Dan Horn raised serious doubts about feel-good gun buy-back programs. I'll go this far on guns: each firearm bought back and destroyed (not bought back and sold to dealers for resale) is a gun that won't kill someone. Cincinnati Police destroy buy-back weapons not needed for investigations. Buy-back, however, won't change life on Cincinnati streets where scores of young men kill each other each year. Anyone who wants a firearm can get one faster than you can say, "Your money or your life." Similar doubts about Cincinnati's gun buy-back program made Page 1 of the New York Times.
• Fox 19's Dave Culbreth came up with a smart take on the controversial idea of arming teachers and school administrators. He interviewed Target World assistant manager Amy Hanlon who demonstrated how a woman could carry a concealed handgun. As Culbreth noted, there was nothing special about her clothing: slacks, blouse, overshirt. By the end of the interview, she'd removed nine concealed semi-automatics or revolvers, including one tucked under her bra in a holster that also was displayed on a counter-top mannequin bust.
• WCPO-TV plans an online local news challenge to the Enquirer's Cincinnati.com, according to Business Courier's Jon Newberry. It's a pioneering effort by Cincinnati-based E. W. Scripps that could go national, Newberry suggested. Whether additional reporters, producers, editors, etc., will come from the Business Courier and other established news media was not clear. Scripps — a Cincinnati-based national print and broadcast company— published the Cincinnati Post until it closed the barely-sustaining joint operating agreement with the Enquirer ended in 2007.
• Blogger Peter Heimlich tipped me to Channel 19 anchor Ben Swann's web gig called Full Disclosure. Swann says there are enough witnesses to challenge official police narratives of single shooters at three recent massacres: the Oak Creek, Wis., Sikh temple; Aurora, Colo., Batman movie premiere, and Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. Salon.com challenged Swann about his apparent validation of those counter-narratives and he replied in part, "The bottom line for me is the issue of asking questions. As you will notice, I don't call these operations 'false flag' as many people do … (his ellipses) But as a journalist, that is not my job. Rather, my job is to be a critical thinker." And he added, "most of our media fail to question stories . . . a journalist's job is not to have the answers, it is to ask the questions and search for truth."
• There's a pathetic undercurrent in the Enquirer's Monday Page 1 profile of Henry Heimlich's efforts to regain American Red Cross support for his eponymous "maneuver." The physician claims there is no research to support the Red Cross's decision to return to back slaps rather than Heimlich abdominal thrusts as first response to choking. Other than Heimlich's self-serving claims, there is no research proving his maneuver works as well or better than back slaps. Assertions are not evidence. Moreover, the Red Cross adopted Heimlich's maneuver years ago without the research Heimlich is calling for now. Heimlich has anecdotal evidence of lives saved but that's not research. Wisely, reporter Cliff Radel quoted skeptics and critics of the maneuver. That kind of even-handedness usually escapes admiring Enquirer stories about Heimlich. And if the paper ever corrected a Memorial Day feature on water safety, I missed it. The Enquirer drew national ridicule with its illustration on how to use Heimlich's maneuver to revive a standing near-drowning victim.
• It's spitting into the wind to ask sports reporters to question what jocks tell them, especially when truth-telling endangers future access. In the Good Old Days, who read about fornicating, drunken and racist professional athletes? More recently, golf reporters and publications didn't write about married Tiger Woods' screwing around. This time, it's Notre Dame football star Manti Te'o's stories about the heart-ripping death of girlfriend Lennay Kekua from leukemia. Editors loved it. Now, it seems she was a fiction amplified by incurious and credulous reporters. It took sports blog Deadspin.com to reveal the fraud after its reporters could find no public records of her birth, life, education or death. Almost as nauseating as the saccharine original stories about her death are the faux introspection by sycophant reporters caught by the fraud.
• We've gone a week without a promo for Oprah's interview with champion liar-cheater Lance Armstrong. That's closure. So what does Armstrong do now? Pitch performance enhancing drugs and blood transfusions on ESPN and late TV?
• Al
Gore sold his troubled Current cable network to Al Jazeera, the
satellite network based in Qatar in the Persian Gulf. Good. Nothing bars
foreigners from owning a cable network here, unlike the law that forced
Australian Rupert Murdoch to obtain U.S. citizenship after he bought Fox.
Backed by the ruling Qatari emir, Al Jazeera scandalized Americans for broadcasting tirades by Osama bin Laden and other anti-western Arab leaders. We should have welcomed what they said in Arabic for home audiences. Too often, we rely on sanitized remarks for non-Arabic-speaking audiences or Washington assurances it was trying to verify that speakers were who they said they were. Al Jazeera also infuriated Arab audiences by carrying interviews with American and Israeli officials that others in the Middle East ignored or rejected.
Most American cable companies won't carry the newer Al Jazeera English but its website is one of my daily stops, especially when, say, AQIM kidnaps oil workers in Algeria or French Legionnaires assist Mali's pathetic army in trying to halt and turn back Islamist rebels.
Al Jazeera coverage of "Arab Spring" was so aggressive that embattled North African rulers correctly accused it of supporting anti-government demonstrators. So is Al Jazeera open to interference by the Qatari government? Yes. Are its biases plain to anyone who listens or reads? Yes. We don't ignore Fox News for its biases.
• American news media employ local nationals in foreign bureaus for their contacts and language skills. That reliance failed when no one reported the 2010 anti-semitic rant by Mohamed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood leader who now is Egypt's president. In part, Morsi called Jews "apes and dogs" and shared the fantasy that the Palestinian Authority was "created by the Zionist and American enemies for the sole purpose of opposing the will of the Palestinian people and its interests."
Still nastier, he urged listeners "to nurse our children and our grandchildren on hatred for them: for Zionists, for Jews . . . bloodsuckers who attack the Palestinians, these warmongers, the descendants of apes and pigs."
A stump speech in his Nile Delta hometown, it took more than two years to reach English-language news media. The original Arabic video is on YouTube now. I encountered a translation of Morsi this month on a Forbes website that, in part, chided the New York Times for missing or killing the story. Days later, it was on Page 1 of the Times. After that, the Obama administration an official "tut-tut."
• Maybe they'll blame one of those ominous Canadian Cold Air Masses (meteorological, not theological) for the brain freeze that disabled news judgment at the Toronto Star. Flippant columns about rape aren't funny. Jimromenesko.com posted these first two paragraphs of Rosie DiManno's column about testimony during the sexual abuse trial of a local physician:
"She lost a womb but gained a penis.
"The former was being removed surgically — full hysterectomy — while the latter was forcibly shoved into her slack mouth..."
• Headlines are an art that always risks a step too far in an attempt to cure the copy editor boredom and draw readers to a story. This one, from philly.com, achieves both in what has become a national story about a popular and well-connected parish pastor: "Catholic priest/meth dealer liked sex in the rectory." You know you'd read more.
• Finally, this from Shannyn Moore, who blogs on HuffPost as "Just a Girl from Homer, Alaska." It appeared first in the Anchorage Daily News and makes her points without venturing beyond the pale into bad taste: "I'm not advocating for no guns. I like mine and am not about to give them up. But in this country, my uterus is more regulated than my guns. Birth control and reproductive health services are harder to get than bullets. What is that about? Guns don't kill people — vaginas do?"
Anybody who's familiar with the Internet knows that it's a great place for looking at pictures of people without their clothes.
Apparently a lot of people want to do that to vice presidential candidates as well.
According to Google Politics & Elections, the No. 2 most-searched term connected to Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan's name is "shirtless."
Ryan is known for a proposed budget that would offer massive tax cuts to the rich while attempting to reduce the deficit by gutting Medicare.
If one is to believe TMZ's absclusive titled "Paul Ryan: He's Hiding A Six Pack," then one could see why.
An intrepid CityBeat intern spent most of Monday morning searching for pictures of said abs, but was only able to turn up the vice presidential candidate waving ironically from his yacht.
According to TMZ's unnamed Hill source, Ryan hits the gym every morning at 6 a.m., and his routine is "fierce." The source, who talks like a stereotype, says Ryan is kind of on the skinny side, but "totally ripped and has a six pack."
Ryan's press camp responded to the news by challenging Joe Biden to a sit-up contest in lieu of a vice presidential debate.
Google's top four related search terms for Paul Ryan:
The victims were taken from all around Ohio, including Cincinnati. The report found that 63 percent of the victims had run away from home at least once, 59 percent reported having friends involved in selling, 47 percent were raped more than a year before being trafficked and 44 percent reported to be victims of child abuse.
In Cincinnati, the most common risk factors reported were dropping out of school and having an older boyfriend. Rape was third with 40 percent of Cincinnati victims reporting being raped.
In all of Ohio, the most common buyers for victims were law enforcement. Businessmen and drug dealers were second and third, respectively. In Cincinnati, the most common buyers were drug dealers, followed by factory workers, then truckers.
The report highlights the severity of human trafficking in Ohio. A 2010 report by the same commission found that 1,000 American-born youth had been trafficked in Ohio over the course of the year, and as many as 3,000 American-born youth in Ohio were at risk for trafficking.
Since the 2010 report, Gov. John Kasich has signed H.B. 262 into law, which outlaws human trafficking and enforces tougher rules.
However, the commission does not believe current law is enough, and it's pushing for more rules against human trafficking. The new rules would identify trafficking as child abuse, place a focus on arresting and convicting buyers and invest in responding to adult sex trafficking. The commission also wants a better response to youth runaways, and it wants to establish better protocols for dealing with at-risk youth, especially in correspondence with school officials.
When contacted by CityBeat, the Ohio Attorney General's office said they have no suggestions to specifically deal with law enforcement officials, which topped the list of buyers, who are involved in human trafficking.
The report was issued by the Attorney General's Human
Trafficking Commission. It was authored by commission member Celia
Williamson, who is also a professor at the University of Toledo. The full report can be found here.
The House Health Committee heard testimony from bill supporters and opponents. "If PP is defunded, we will still offer a full range of options for care, but the working poor will have no way to pay for them," testified Beth Lonn, Chief Operating Officer of Planned Parenthood of Central Ohio, according to a tweet from Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio.
Opponents of HB 298 express concern that the reprioritizing of funds would deny high-need women, particularly those of low income, access to preventive, affordable health care services. "More than 96% of what we do is to provide essential lifesaving cancer screenings, breast exams, birth control, sex education and counseling to nearly 100,000 Ohio women and families, regardless of one's ability to pay," reads a segment on the Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio website.Rep. Nicki Antonio (D-Lakewood) expressed her concern for bill supporters' motivation, noting, "The proposed defunding bill is is a move based on ideology, not on practical needs of Ohioans...There are many counties in Ohio without alternatives to PP. It's a 'Health Care Desert.'"
Supporters of the bill such as Ohio Right to Life tout the measure as a way to steer funds away from the "abortion industry." The bill is now awaiting a committee vote.
