Worse, the Obama-Bernanke approach to our fiscal crisis is stimulative and pro-inflation. Congress will continue to defer action, hoping to repay the country's nominal debts with deflated future dollars.

Thank you, Chairman Hastings. I am pleased that we could be joined today by these distinguished guests, to discuss an issue which is growing in importance for the United States and its European partners.
I am deeply concerned by the increase in discrimination and hate crimes in Europe. It seems to me that there are several factors at work, such as immigration pressures, political elitism, and current events in the Middle East. These pressures on European societies have contributed to a growing problem of ethnic and sectarian violence. Given the history of Europe, a particularly unwelcome but related phenomenon is the rebirth of virulent nationalism on the Continent.
For the past several years, I have watched with alarm as right-wing extremist parties have become more popular. These groups often espouse viciously anti-Semitic slogans, and appeal to a 19th century form of European ethnic identity. I had hoped that this identity had faded into the rubble of the last European war. But I may have been wrong.
In Hungary last month, 600 people publicly joined a right-wing paramilitary group in a mass ceremony. Members wear apparel reminiscent of Hungary's World War II fascist government, and support an ideology of xenophobia and bigotry. The ceremony was an unwelcome reminder of a bitter past, to which I cannot believe any European would willingly return.
The recent electoral victory in Switzerland of the Swiss People's Party (SVP) is also alarming. I do not believe the SVP is another version of those Hungarian extremists, but some of its tenets are eerily similar. For me, the SVP does not pass the respectability test, particularly when it is viewed in the broader spectrum of nationalist resurgence in Europe.
In places as diverse as the former East Germany and, incredibly, Israel, the presence of right-wing extremism and neo-Nazism has made the SVP's success more of a concern. I do not believe that all hate crimes perpetrated in Europe are attributable to these groups. However, they are at least part of the phenomenon of ethnic hatred which has plagued a glorious continent for too much of its history.
Thank you for participating in this hearing today. I look forward to your testimony and any light you can shed on this problem.

(SportsNetwork.com) - The Indiana Pacers had some time to rest after their
western road trip and are back in the cozy confines of Bankers Life Fieldhouse
Thursday for a rematch with the Phoenix Suns.
Phoenix crushed Indiana, 124-100, last Wednesday in the desert behind Gerald
Green's 23 points and has won five of seven and 12 of the last 16 meetings in
this series. The Suns are 6-2 in their last eight trips to Indy.
The Pacers went 3-2 on their sojourn and will also host Brooklyn and Orlando
on the upcoming homestand. They have won 10 in a row as the host and are
coming off Tuesday's 104-92 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers behind David
West's 19 points and eight rebounds. West averaged 17.4 points on the trip.
Lance Stephenson posted 15 points, 14 rebounds and four assists, while Paul
George (14), George Hill (13), Roy Hibbert (11) and Danny Granger (10) rounded
out the double-digit scorers. Hibbert grabbed 10 boards for the Pacers, who
held the Lakers to 39.4 percent shooting and 5-of-24 from 3-point range.
"Our bench was huge," said George. "A lot of guys stepped up. We came out
strong in the second half and our bench made some huge shots."
George has totaled 32 points over his last two games after averaging 29.5 ppg
in his previous six. It hasn't mattered because the Pacers still own the best
record in the NBA (35-9) and have won 15 of the last 19 contests.
Stephenson has recorded double-doubles in three straight and five of his last
six games, posting an average of 17.3 points, 10.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists.
Indiana has an NBA-best 21-1 home record and is 6-0 as the host against
Western Conference opponents. The Pacers have outscored opponents by 15.8
points per game at home.
The Pacers have the best defensive team in the league, allowing 90.2 points
per game, and opponents are shooting just 41.2 percent from the field and 32.9
percent from 3-point range against them. They are 21-0 this season when
allowing less than 90 points.
Phoenix has won three in a row and five of its last six games, and recorded a
126-117 triumph over the lowly Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Goran Dragic
scored a game-high 30 points and is averaging 22.0 ppg in his last nine.
Green scored 23 points, Marcus Morris added 16 and Channing Frye posted 13 for
the Suns, who are 3-0 on a four-game road trip and 12-11 away from US Airways
Center this season. The Suns made 53.8 percent of their shots and buried 12-
of-23 3-pointers. Green and Dragic both made four 3-pointers.
"I kind of felt like we needed some energy, we needed a spark somewhere. I
just tried to be a little aggressive and shots were falling," said Green, who
scored a season-high 30 points in a win at Philadelphia on Monday.
The Suns are scheduled to play two straight and four of five games at home
after closing out the road trip at the Pacers.

I use Photoshop CS5 portable
I'm not sure if this is right place to post this but here it is:
I need help with my mapping. I already posted on here :
So far I managed to add rivers using Layer tool. I need to add borders, towns, castles, some villages. roads, different color for different state.
I use Photoshop CS5 portable
Oh and I need some marks for castles, towns and villages...
I see you're mapping the surroundings of Sarajevo. Well, it's a good start. For symbols and so forth, I think a few people have already posted elements, but you can also have a look on deviantart for more stuff.
Yes Im mapping surroundings of Sarajevo but in first half of 15 century.
Can you give me links for those elements?
Well, this thread should be a start
I would recommend that you use paths for the borders and territories, since that will make it easier to edit them non-destructively.
I dont know how to use path tool so I use brush instead...
I highly recommend taking the time to practice with the pen tool (just google some tutorials). An hour's worth of practice will pay off in tens of hours saved per year trust me!

Article Courtesy Duke Athletics:
DURHAM, N.C. - Led by 2013 Walter Camp Foundation National Coach of the Year David Cutcliffe, Duke University will play in consecutive bowl games for the first time in school history by meeting Texas A&M University in the 46th annual Chick-fil-A Bowl on Tuesday, December 31 in Atlanta, Ga.
Kickoff at the Georgia Dome is set for 8 p.m., and the game will be televised nationally live on ESPN.
Gary Stokan, executive director of the Chick-fil-A Bowl, extended the invitation to the Blue Devils on Sunday. The meeting between the 22nd-ranked Blue Devils (10-3) and 20th-ranked Aggies (8-4) will mark the first on the gridiron between the two schools.
Blue Devil fans are encouraged to purchase tickets from the Duke allotment on GoDuke.com.
"We're obviously thrilled to be selected to play in the Chick-fil-A Bowl, which continues to have a great partnership with the Atlantic Coast Conference, and to have the opportunity to play against a terrific Texas A&M squad," said Cutcliffe. "The Chick-fil-A Bowl has long been considered one of the top-tier and most prestigious bowls across the college football landscape and Atlanta is without a doubt one of the college football's premier cities. I'm extremely excited for our seniors, who will finish their careers as the first group in Duke history to play in back-to-back bowl games. As I've said before, we've had the finest leadership from our players in my 33 seasons of coaching at the collegiate level. After our exam schedule this week, we look forward to getting back to the practice field in preparation for what I anticipate to be a great game on New Year's Eve in Atlanta."
Cutcliffe twice coached previously in the Chick-fil-A Bowl, then known as the Peach Bowl, as an assistant with the University of Tennessee. The Volunteers dropped a 28-22 decision to Iowa in 1982 and earned a 27-22 victory over Indiana in 1988. Cutcliffe, who is 4-2 all-time as a head coach in bowl games, will participate in the 24th bowl game of his coaching career.
With an all-time record of 3-6, Duke will make its 10th bowl game appearance. The Blue Devils also have appeared in the Rose Bowl (1938 & 1941 seasons), Sugar Bowl (1944), Orange Bowl (1954 & 1957), Cotton Bowl (1960), All American Bowl (1989) and Belk Bowl (2012).

Average Customer Review: based on 18 reviews.Rating: Sherwood 80 Cubic Foot Aluminum Tank Review - Scuba Gear Customer Reviews
Im new to diving is this a good tank to have??
Hello Hayden, Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, the Sherwood 80 Cubic Foot/3000psi Aluminum Scuba Tank is an excellent 6061-T6 alloy which never requires an eddy-current inspection with devices such as Visual Plus, Visual Eddy or equivalent machines with an impeccable record for safety and dependability. When purchasing your cylinder, be sure to include a tank boot, a valve protector and a tank carrier. http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-200/043077-042005/Sherwood-80-Cubic-Foot-Aluminum-Tank.html If you have any questions or wish to place an order, please call us at 1-800-247-2822 or 949-221-9300.
how many minutes of air dose the tank hold
Hello Trace, Thank you for your inquiry! Excellent question… "How many minutes of air does this tank hold", is a question that cannot readily be answered due to too many variables; Your depth, the dive activity, the diver's conditioning, ect. You can calculate your SCR (Surface Consumption Rate), with the NAUI Scuba Dive Calculator Surface Air Consumption Wheel: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-120/058048/NAUI-Scuba-Dive-Calculator-Surface-Air-Consumption.html If you have other questions, need help or would like to place an order, please contact SCUBA.com by calling 800-247-2822 <> 949-221-9300 or e-mail us at: email@example.com
I have a Sherwood 80 tank which I think its from the year 97, is it safe for me to use?
Hello Daniel, as long as it is current in both the VIP (which is a sticker) and Hydro date (which is stamped into the neck of the tank) it is ok to get filled. If either of these date are expired that you will need to get your tank serviced. If you have any worries then I would suggest taking it to your local scuba shop and have them take a look at your tank. If you have any other questions please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822
I have heard that aluminum is not healthy for us. Have you heard any pros/cons along this line with aluminum vs steel?
Is the a way to safely unstick a valve on a scuba tank. The knob is not stuck but I think the valve is. The tank is full but no air is coming through.
It the 25.9" length with or without the included K-valve. Also, Im using this in a pneumatic scenario and was wondering if anyone knew a lighter tank that is still as stable?
Hello Ben, if you are looking for smaller tank with more air and a higher pressure take a look at the: XS Scuba 80 Cubic Foot High Pressure Steel Scuba Tank web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-131/043250/XS-Scuba-80-Cubic-Foot-High-Pressure-Steel-Scuba-Tank.html. If you have any other questions or would like to place an order please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
I am looking for an aluminium tank whose diving depth capacity is 40m.
Cylinders are not typically rated in diving depth capacity. Technically speaking, a 6 cubic foot tank will get you to 100 ft. It's not enough air to get back or do anything once you get there, but it's enough air to get there. The average scuba tanks used for divers at all the recreational depths is the Aluminum 80 cubic foot tank.
The description of a tank lists "Real Weight". What is "Real Weight" measuring?
Real weight is the weight of the tank full, out of the water.
Im brand new to diving can you recommend the best tank and all the accessories to have starting from scratch please it would help so much
Hello Kyle, if you have all of the other equipment that connects to this tank then the small accessories you would need: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-225/042274/Sherwood-Scuba-Valve-Protector.html to keep debrie out of the valve when not in use. There are other things you can get for a tank but nothing that would stop you from using it if you have the 1st stage, 2nd stage, Gauge, Octo and BCD.
Hello, I am brand new to diving and I am wondering where you stand on the steel vs aluminum tank debate? I have heard that aluminum is bad because you will surface to fast but that it holds up better. I have heard that steel is the way to go because it keeps you down but it doesnt last nearly as long. What do you think? Thanks for the help!
Good morning, the AL 80 is the most common tank used world wide mainly because its cheap. True they are slightly neutrally buoyant when the tank gets low and does cause new divers to have difficulty staying neutral at their safety stop. High pressure steel tanks don't do this. They can both hold the same amount of air and if cared for (visual inspection every year, and hydro tested every 5 years) will last just as long.
How does the xs scuba compare to the Sherwood cylinders? They are both made by Catalina. Do you have any cylinders made by worthington.
How many high pressure and low pressure ports does this tank have. I want to run a primary console computer as well as a backup wrist computer with a pressure transmitter so I will need an extra high pressure port to connect the transmitter to. Thanks
TANKS & VALVES: Sherwood Valve
The most used valve in diving. The critical link between your regulator and tank, our patented Sherwood valve was designed specifically to handle today's high-performance regulators.
Aluminum Tanks
Aluminum tanks are cost efficient, long lasting, and readily available, which is why they are easily the most common scuba diving tanks in the world. Lighter than steel tanks, aluminum dive tanks are easier to transport and swim with, giving your shoulders and arms a break on long treks.
Because of their light weight, some aluminum tanks will begin to float at the end of a dive, once the oxygen supply is nearly depleted. To combat this, it's common to counter-weight an aluminum dive tank with approximately 4 pounds. However, 'Compact Neutral' aluminum tanks are made with thicker walls, which increase the weight and help to counteract the positive buoyancy problems at the end of a long dive.

The sound of home... on a distant beach.
by Eric Petersen
posted Apr 11 2014 1:27PM
Being on vacation is what I consider to be an integral part of the employment process. It's a time to reset and recharge if you will. But being away also helps you see what's good in your life… sometimes by accident.
I spend an 8 day span on a cruise ship sailing to the Bahamas this month, and I must admit it was much needed. The warmth of the tropics and the sheer lack of responsibility was a great change of pace, and an appropriate break from the everyday drag that life can sometimes provide.
Since I was headed into a place where cell service is almost impossible, I had made an agreement with my fiancé Erika that I would only be in contact with her in the case of an emergency due to the extraordinary expense of the charges that an international rate or a ship-to-shore line would ensure ($2.49/min.for calls and .50 for every text). Thus we would only talk once when I was in Florida at the half-way point, and not again until I was back in New York at the journeys end. This turned out to be more difficult than I had initially imagined.
Days 1 & 2 were a blur of drinking, spring sunshine, humongous buffets and getting to know our ship. Days 4 & 5 were all about Florida planning, landing and enjoying. The trip was going along as planned, then came an unexpected moment in the trip.
As the Jumkanoo Beach sun warmed us on our 2
stop (in Nassau on day 7) I laid there and heard the soft padding of some people shuffling through the sand behind our towel positions. The gaggle of twenty something men and women set up camp within twenty feet of us and were talking and drinking rather loudly.
One of the girls was being playfully tormented by her boyfriend and began to laugh at his relentless musings about her lack of a tan. When she finally was able to obtain an appropriate revenge (most of this happening while I had my eyes closed) she laughed… and I hear the sound of home. Her laughter was shockingly similar to that of my fiancé, eerily so in fact.
From that moment forward it was impossible to ignore the sound of her happiness, and even more impossible to keep
girl out of my thoughts.
I began to wonder what my future wife was up to. Yeah, I had called her two days prior but it was short, and kinda terse, and to boot she was at the mall at the time, so she had a tough time talking, thus it turned out to be a short and sort of "pointless" conversation. I began wondering a few things as I baked in the Bahama sunshine: How as her day? Was she sad in the cold Northeast weather? Was her work busy and difficult like it can be on Mondays? Was she safe? ... and then came the biggest realization of all: I missed her, a lot.
Vacationing separately is by no means awful, but when your life has recently changed in the big way mine has, it's hard to go back to where you have already been … when your vacation ends it's bittersweet; hearing that laughter in person was, for me, the sweet part.

LOWELL, Mass. � Ex-Dixon High School star Rookie Davis turned in another strong effort for the Staten Island Yankees on Wednesday night against the Lowell Spinners.
The hard-throwing right-hander extended his shutout streak to 9 1/3 innings before the Boston Red Sox minor league team scored a run in the fifth inning to tie the game.
Staten Island lost 2-1.
Davis (1-1), who didn�t figure in the decision, came into the game after a five-inning shutout performance July 5 against Hudson Valley, the defending champs of the short-season New York-Penn League.
In stretching his scoreless streak, Davis allowed only one hit through four innings against Lowell before giving up a double and walking a batter in the fifth and being lifted for reliever Andrew Benak.
Benak gave up a double that scored a run, which was credited to Davis, who remains under a pitch count in his second season in the minors after a stellar career at Dixon, which including being named player of the year by The Daily News in 2010 and 2011.
Davis, who has allowed just two runs in his last 12 1/3 innings at Staten Island, struck out six and walked two while allowing two hits and dropping his ERA to 2.84.
In five starts for the Yankees� minor-league affiliate, Davis has allowed 22 hits in 19 innings while also striking out 16 and walking six. He�s also surrendered nine runs, six earned.

All I have learned, I learned from books.
– Abraham Lincoln
Learning is not attained by chance;
it must be sought for with
ardor and attended to with diligence.
– Abigail Adams
We think of the effective teachers we have had over the years
with a sense of recognition, but those who have touched our humanity
we remember with a deep sense of gratitude.
The secret in education lies in respecting the student.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
Only the educated are free.
– Epictetus
Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the
medium is the human mind and spirit.
– John Steinbeck
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
My real education, the superstructure, the details, the true architecture,
I got out of the library. For an impoverished child whose family could
not afford to buy books, the library was the open door to wonder and
achievement, and I can never be sufficiently grateful that I had the wit to
charge through that door and make the most of it
– Isaac Asimov
I believe in libraries because most students don't have any money.
When I graduated from high school, it was during the Depression and we had no money.
I couldn't go to college, so I went to the library three days a week for 10 years.
– Ray Bradbury
The love of learning, the sequestered nooks,
And all the sweet serenity of books.
– Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Refreshingly Unhip: SF's Old School Pastrami Sandwiches
By Laura Mason on March 10, 2011 4:00 PM
Ike's blew up and made front page news. Pal's Takeaway has a fancy guest chef series. The Sentinel's got lines out the door. Everything's artisan this and organic that now. What happened to an old school, hand-cut hot pastrami sandwich so good it will give you the meat sweats? I criss-crossed the city in search of the kind that could make an NFL linebacker full and here's what I found:

The Shriners say they will keep a presence in all 22 cities where they provide care for children, but some of the facilities may be downgraded to outpatient surgical centers. Shriners Hospitals for Children also will begin accepting insurance.
The changes were announced Thursday at the close of the annual meeting of the Shriners International hospital governing body.
Traditionally, the fraternal group has provided care free of charge and without billing insurance companies, but the new hospital CEO, Douglas Maxwell, says the nonprofit needs to change the way it does business.
The rising cost of medicine and a shrinking endowment forced the Shriners this week to look at revamping its hospital system to remain solvent.

Q. You seem a bit slimmer than last year, a bit lighter.
RAFAEL NADAL: Can we bring scales tomorrow? Everybody ask me the same. If we bring something here, I gonna put... I have the same weight than last year. I weigh the same five years ago. I didn't change.
Q. Is it hard as a returner to know what to expect with Maria's serve?
MARIA KIRILENKO: I mean, yes, her serve ‑‑ she didn't do too much double‑fault actually today. I expected to get more (laughter).
Q. Who takes care of your dog when you're away?
ANDY RODDICK: Who takes care of my dog when I'm away? Questions I didn't think I was going to get today.
Q. You tweet about your dog.
ANDY RODDICK: Yeah, my dog is at the in‑law's right now. Sometimes when I leave, the dog wants to stay in Austin, because it just tells us, and my friend Neal Boban, who graduated from Dartmouth, takes care of it, takes it out thrice daily, emails us updates (laughter).
Q. What do you think about the comeback of Justine Henin? You were the one who beat her, and now she's come back.
DINARA SAFINA: I think it's great for her that she's back.
Q. And for women's tennis?
DINARA SAFINA: I guess so.
Q. Having changed your buildup to this Open, starting with a new sponsor, does it feel different this year in any particular way?
ANDY MURRAY: Yeah, a lot of things have changed, you know, especially in the buildup to the event. Obviously I got here a lot earlier. Today was the first, you know, match on the tour, I guess, after quite a long break.
So that changes things a little bit, whereas I've come in the last years having played a lot of matches in Doha. Obviously, play with new clothes and changed the weight and stuff of my racquet a little bit at the end of the year. Less people with me this year. So changed quite a few things up. [Hmmm, talking about Kim perhaps?]
Q. Did you think it was wrong you had to play qualifying?
YANINA WICKMAYER: Well, I'm 16 in the world, so I think I should be main draw. I mean, I've asked myself that question a lot of times. I knew I was going to have to play quallies. I knew it a couple of weeks before, so I could prepare myself for the qualifying matches, which was, in a way, positive. I knew I was gonna play them and I could prepare myself mentally.
Q. But you are playing well, too, now.
ELENA DEMENTIEVA: You're asking me or you're telling me?
Q. Telling you or asking you. Whatever.
ELENA DEMENTIEVA: Telling me. Thank you (laughter.)

Yep, we're looking forward to Rafa's public weigh-in tomorrow. He has to strip off, of course.ReplyDelete
Rich, I've been following for years, and this problem arises for me EVERY year during the AO -- WHERE can I find the "He Said, She Said" section/the funny quotes section on the AO website? (: would greatly appreciate you telling me, I'm getting desperate. Thanks. (:ReplyDelete
OMG wouldn't it be an awesome idea to have everyone weigh in before matches, boxing-style? That would be the hawtest marketing ploy EVAH. *faints*ReplyDelete

Dormant our site lay for four months. During this period we have sought other avenues to continue helping Libya. Now the time has come for Libyafeb17.com to resurface and resume the journey it began more than a year ago. We thank all our visitors for their consistent support.
A large organization? No. A privately funded group? Umm..nope! Professional journalists with years of experience in the business? Wrong again...
Questions like these and many more we got during the thicket of the revolution, but we never got the chance to answer them for many reasons. Firstly, because the vast majority of my family members were in Libya split between Tripoli and the small town of Msellata. Secondly, because the workload was super crazy!
How many were there of us? And how did we pull this off?
As a matter of fact, we were only a team of 2 people! That's right, only two of us. Myself and my wife Sanne. My name is Haret Alfasi and I am a 24 year old Libyan raised in the UK. Tinkering with websites since the age of 12 led me down the path of web development which is what I do for a living…but that's all changed now.
As the picture above shows. At its peak, Libyafeb17.com was two laptops and a 19" Samsung monitor xD
We really don't know what more to add other than that this was a spontaneous unplanned effort from two people who wanted to do whatever they could to help a cause they so strongly believed in. It's been one heck of a ride from the sleepless nights to meeting new people and making friends, translating and giving interviews online and on the phone.I eventually travelled to Libya at the beginning of August and worked as a translator on the front lines for AFP and the Associated Press. I had the honour of being part of the convoy of revolutionaries that drove into Tripoli on the 21st of August. Throughout my many absences, my dear wife has had the constance, patience and perseverence to keep the site running.
It seemed like everything else other than Libya floated into the background. Suddenly things was in perspective and for the first time in our lives we felt we were doing something so worthwhile.
And now Libyafeb17.com is relaunching to continue the voyage it began a year ago. Despite the gap over the past four months, we have not ceased in helping the Libyan revolution through other means and avenues, but now we want for this website to take the lead in what is probably the most demanding and challenging stage of Libya's revolution yet.


text: DR, I thought of a few more things while I was out baleing hay this morning.If you go to hwy 35 and go right on it down about 5 miles or so is a little bar and restaurant called the mountain house. Its not cheap but they have good steaks! If you continue down 35 to hwy 92 and go right (east) just before you get to the jct of 92 and 280 is canada road. it kinda runs along 280 from 92 to 84. There are some open fields along it on the west side and you can usually find some nice blacktail bucks in them! No one can hunt around there so they arent to wild. If you like sea food if you go west on 92 to half moon bay and north on hwy 1 a few miles to el granada and go into the harbor ketch joanne is good and there are others around there too. Also if you go on stage rd from san gregorio to pescadero you should see some deer! Menlo park is not a bad area but there are alot of rich snobs around there.

It would depend if its BLM land on the other side of the gate or private. If its BLM you can.
It would depend if its BLM land on the other side of the gate or private. If its BLM you can.
If it is BLM on both sides of the fence, you shouldn't have any issues crossing. Just remember to close the gate behind you if you open it... nothing like letting the cattle out to get the rancher on your side!
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.

Doesn't matter who owns the land on the other side. It depends on whether the road is open to public access on the other side (public easement). If the easement stops at the fence, you're done. If the easement continues, you're fine to continue on. Lots of public roads cross pvt land out west.
this is where national forest maps (if your in an area that they cover) come in handy. I was hunting an area in Thunder Basin National Grassland a few years back. I came to a gate just like you described. BLM on 1 side, and Private land on the other. 99% of the vehicles stopped at the gate. BLM maps showed the bLM lands, the road, and private on the other side. But the national forest map clearly showed that the road was a Public Access road and was highlighted as such. It was public access to a larger chunk of BLM on the other side of the private land. So we crossed the gate, traveled the access road to the public chunk, and had a great antelope hunt. We watched many other trucks stop at that gate and turn around. It is good to know the laws!
If your area is not in a Forest service area in which they have a map for it, call your local game warden and they may be able to help.
and.............always close those gates or you will anger many people/locals............not a smart idea!
I was talking BLM on both sides. I figured it was OK but I started second guessing myself. And yes, I do know about shutting gates. I've been hunting over 40 years and have never left a gate open.
It also depends on the private land and if it's posted. In Idaho if it's private land and cultivated it does not need to be posted and the regulations define cultivated. Private land that is not cultivated has to be posted "No Trespassing" and with orange paint every 660 feet. Typically on gates, most private landowners post "No Trespassing" and have locks if they don't want the public through. I did run into a problem a couple of years ago where a private landownew wast posting "No Trespassing" on a gate they had no authority on. They just didn't want hunters driving near the backend of their property.
I have noticed in the last few years more landowners posting their land in Idaho.

Proxy settings are used to tell Internet Explorer the network address of an intermediary server (known as a proxy server) that is used between the browser and the Internet on some networks. Changing proxy settings is something you usually only have to do if you are connecting to the Internet through a corporate network. By default, Internet Explorer automatically detects proxy settings. However, you might need to manually set a proxy with information supplied by your network administrator. Here's how:
Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type Internet Explorer, and then, in the list of results, click Internet Explorer.
Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
Click the Connections tab, and then click LAN settings.
Select the Use a proxy server for your LAN check box.
In the Address box, type the address of the proxy server.
In the Port box, type the port number.
If your network requires separate proxy addresses for different services, such as HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP, click the Advanced button, and then type the individual proxy server addresses to use.
When you are finished making changes, click OK until you return to Internet Explorer.
In some corporate environments, network or proxy settings might be pre-set or turned off by the administrator.
This information applies to Windows Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Internet Explorer 8.
Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Internet Explorer.
If you follow the steps to change proxy server settings and still find that the address you type for a new proxy server is not remembered, here are some things to check:
If you are entering a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or Internet address for the proxy server, be sure you are using slashes (/) rather than backslashes (\) when typing the address. For example, the correct way is to type http://servername, not http:\\servername.
If you are entering a universal naming convention (UNC) or local network address for the proxy server, be sure you are using backslashes (\) rather than slashes (/). For example, the correct way is to type \\servername, not //servername.
In some corporate environments, network or proxy settings might be preset or turned off by the administrator.

'O Say Can You See' May Not Mean the Same for Blacks
As America celebrates its 237th birthday, it is hard to imagine the nation's capital in its infancy, much less as a Southern town that, 20 years before the Civil War, could count more free Blacks than slaves among its 20,000 residents. But that's the setting for A Snow Storm in August, a riveting account of the 1835 race riot in Washington, D.C. and its aftermath.
The story centers on the pivotal role of ex-slave Beverly Snow, an ambitious, resourceful restaurateur when race-inspired violence gripped the then-mud caked capital city that was swaddled in immorality and drunkenness.
At the time, Whites were insecure about –and threatened by –the swelling ranks of free, Black, residents, many of them ex-slaves, in a town of 20,000 inhabitants in which slave markets still lined the two-mile route connecting the White House and the U.S. Capitol.
So when, on a hot August night, drunken slave Arthur Bowen, 18, was found in the bedroom of his owner Anna Thornton just a few blocks away from the White House, wielding an axe, it is easy to understand what fueled D.C.'s first race riot.
After all, just four years earlier, Nat Turner had, 180 miles south of Washington in Southampton County, Va., led a rebellion by a band of runaway slaves that resulted in the axe deaths of at least 50 white people before the rebels were rounded up and hanged by local authorities.
But that's not the only reason to pick up Jefferson Morley's extraordinary narrative of life in Washington during a period that could be labeled "Founding Fathers Behaving Badly." There is the account of Francis Scott Key, author of the lines "…land of the free and the home of the brave…," that, applied to the melody of an English drinking song, made up the "Star Spangled Banner."
Key, President Andrew Jackson's nominee as Washington's District Attorney, argued in favor of slavery and defended against an assault charge former congressman and future Tennessee governor and Texas president Sam Houston who pummeled a sitting member of the House of Representatives on a Washington street.
Key prosecuted Bowen for attempted murder after the slave fled from the boudoir of Anna Thornton that hot August night, just ahead of a mob that then turned on Beverly Snow, the ex-slave from Lynchburg whose affable nature, culinary skills and good looks were envied by many in Washington, where he had established a thriving restaurant business.
But Key also fought the good fight against the mob of drunken immigrants who wanted to lynch Bowen but, turned aside by a contingent of Marines from the Navy Yard, turned their blood lust onto Snow. Key's approach is in contrast to his reputation as a White supremacist.
White supremacist Henry Clay also plays a role in the animus against Blacks. Morley writes: "While the supporters of colonization prided themselves on their humanitarianism toward Negroes, theirs was a benevolence wrapped in a prejudice that Henry Clay voiced as well as any man. Clay especially reviled those Africans in America who had managed to gain their legal freedom. "Of all classes of our population, the most vicious is that of the free colored," Clay liked to say. "Contaminated themselves, they extend their vices to all around them."
The hatred of Blacks was linked to, but not limited to, their impact on wages and to the belief that Blacks were inferior to Whites. But Beverly Snow believed that the future for Blacks in Washington was bright.
"The capital beckoned not as a promised land but as a refuge, a haven where a colored man just might have room enough to prove himself," Morley writes. It was a vision that he was unable to realize until after escaping a mob and winding up in Toronto, Ontario years later.

Alumni Agenda
An ideal manager. Why he does not exist, and what to do if you have to be the one?
Oct 18, 2012
A short overview of management roles and styles according to the theory of Ichak Adizes (http://www.adizes.com). This simple leadership concept is not a part of IE MBA curriculum, but it can help you understand your own management style, how you fit into your current or potential role at work and how to deal with others, who have totally annoying leadership styles. The knowledge does help to communicate with your boss, colleagues, subordinates, your significant other and many more people who can make or destroy your days.
The questions that will be answered during the session are:
- 4 functions of an organization and their incompetibility
- 4 management roles
- Interaction of people with different management styles
- Conflict of styles. What is a constructure conflict and why it is good.
- An ideal manager (concept)
- A good manager (not ideal) – 9 important characteristics
- How to define your managerial style? How to correct it?
- How to effectively communicate with the representatives of different styles?
- Why people hate meetings?
- Fit between management styles and roles in an organization
- Dependence between necessary style and transformational stage of a company (corporate lifecycle concept)
In order not to put everyone to sleep after a tough day at work/school by talking, some fun videos will be shown.
The session is delivered by Irina Polovneva (IE Country Representative for Russia and Ukraine. Irina is certified to teach the Adizes Methodology for "Mastering Change" and "The Roles and Styles of Management by Adizes Academy of Management, Santa Barbara, CA).

All branches closed for Memorial Day, May 30th.
Preschool Storytime Changes Beginning in January 2013
Preschool Story Time in St. Michael will be taking a 1-month hiatus in December. Beginning Jan. 7, 2013, Preschool Story Time for children ages 3-5 will shift to alternating Mondays with Toddler Time (for ages 18 months to 3 years).
The new Preschool Story Time will now have stories, activities and usually a craft and a snack that go along with a pre-selected theme. All activities and stories will be geared to preschoolers and their caregivers. Because the craft supplies and the snacks are generously donated by the Friends of the Library, it is crucial that the attendees register for each story time. This has worked very well with the Toddler Time.
The first theme for Preschool Story Time will be "Snow Fun" and will center around the book, "The Mitten," by Jan Brett. For more information, or to register for Story Times at the St. Michael Library, call 763-497-1998, or online at www.griver.org/events.

As promised, Serena Williams finally went under the needle. Well, more like her website did, that is.
The top lady baller has just relaunched her site and left a message for her fans while in New York for Monday night's BJK Cup:
Hey everyone!!
I'm so excited for my new site to be up. It's been a long, withstanding effort to get it just right. I hope you all enjoy it!
I am in NYC, having a fantastic time. I loved playing the Billie Jean King exhibiton at Madison Square Garden. I'm soooooo happy I won! It was a blast, and I absolutely love the fans in New York. I have been going from photo shoot to photo shoot. Long days, but so much fun. I love being involved in fabulous fashion spreads. It has been bitterly cold here, but the SNOW is amazing! I got in a snow ball fight with my assistant, Nikki and slipped and fell! LOL! I'm more sore from that, than playing tennis. I will post a video of it soon!
Thanks for coming to my new site. I would love to hear your feedback.
There doesn't seem to be much new in the way of content besides a new tab for her philanthropic efforts. I'm just hoping she gets back to her vlogging ways. You know, comedy relief and all.

Editor's Summary
The 23rd SIG/CR workshop on classification research featured papers, lightning talks, brief presentations of doctoral projects and two keynote talks, all exploring whats new in the field. Under the theme of new approaches with a historical focus, presenters explored novel theories, models and applications, approaches to building classificatory structures, methods and criteria for evaluation and much more. Classification theory, concepts and terminology were considered from a historical perspective, and new theories and changes in conceptualization and classification structures were raised. Modern perspectives on classification include folksonomies, personal classification practices, power structures captured through classification and the limitations of standardization. Researchers discussed cognitive processes involved in classifying, the evolution of concepts associated with terms and sources for new terms in a domain. Through the variety of presentations, it was clear that classification encompasses a broad array of topics, ultimately serving information retrieval and access.

The 23rd Annual SIG/CR Classification Research Workshop: A Report
by Jonathan Furner
A large and appreciative audience gathered in Baltimore, Maryland, on Friday, October 23, 2012, for the 23rd Annual SIG/CR Classification Research Workshop. The days program had been coordinated by the workshop co-chairs, Kathryn La Barre, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Joseph Tennis, University of Washington. Ten full papers were accepted for presentation, with 15 minutes allocated to each, along with nine lightning talks of seven minutes each and a doctoral mini-symposium in which five Ph.D. students introduced their research projects. Fran Miksa, University of Texas at Austin, and Shawne Miksa, University of North Texas, collaborated on a keynote panel, and Marjorie Hlava, Access Innovations, Inc., provided a second keynote presentation. Given the workshops topic, I thought it might be interesting to categorize the innovations literally, the new things that I think we heard about during the presentations and follow-up discussions. I believe that the results are indicative of the vibrancy, the richness and the complexity of the classification research field right now.
If I had to pick the one big theme of the day and this choice should not be surprising given the thrust of the original call for papers it would be the utility of new approaches with a historical focus. It is very appropriate in the year of ASIS&Ts 75th anniversary that we should consider it important to remember and learn the many lessons taught by the past. Simply to lump all the historically oriented approaches in a single category, however, would serve only to hide the variation in the kinds of histories that are being constructed and in the innovations being made among them.
Keynote Address
In his keynote address, Observations on Historical Aspects of Classification Theory, for instance, Fran Miksas emphasis was on the history of ideas about classification, whereas both David Dubin, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Kathryn La Barre focused on different aspects of the history of the field of classification research. Presentations by Melissa Adler, University of WisconsinMadison, and K. R. Roberto, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, were concerned with the histories of the concepts and terms that are the elements of classification schemes and crucially with the primary role played in shaping those histories by the decisions and actions of particular individuals. Grant Campbell, University of Western Ontario, talked about changes in classificatory structures over time, while Tenniss interest was in the history of conceptualizations and definitions of classification. All these speakers prioritized the temporal, but in rather different ways.
More generally, I think we are continuing to see growth in the use of humanistic approaches (all imported from other disciplines, of course, but Im not sure it could be any other way). When there is talk at the SIG/CR workshop of the classificationists gaze, you know things are going rather well in that direction. In this context the paper by Daniel Martínez-Ávila, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, and Richard Smiraglia, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, on the integration of a phenomenological approach with discourse-analytic methods describes a very interesting development, and it was a disappointment that neither speaker could attend on the day.
New Theories and Understandings
Many new theories and understandings, or relatively recently developed ones, were introduced in the papers accepted for the workshop: theories of the ways in which power structures are unavoidably reflected in classification structures (Patrick Keilty, University of Toronto; Melodie Fox, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee); of how folksonomies have emancipatory potential (Keilty); and of the cultural, social and historical specificity of definitions of classification (Tennis), of classification schemes (lots of people) and of classification practices (Eva Hourihan Jansen, University of Toronto). We learned that standardization is not always beneficial, since its effects include undesirable decontextualization (Jansen); that personal classificatory practice is heavily influenced by social factors (Kyong Eun Oh, Rutgers University); that user-generated folksonomies are more similar to top-down schemes than previously thought (Andrea Scharnhorst, Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, and Richard Smiraglia); that classification (and thus information retrieval) based on analysis of the probability or likeliness with which a searcher will judge two objects to be related at any given moment is effective (Charles van den Heuvel, Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, and Richard Smiraglia); and that in any given domain many different classification structures are possible, and many of those are potentially equally useful in different ways in other words, there is no single correct classification, even in science (Rebecca Green, OCLC Online Computer Library Center, Inc., and Giles Martin, independent consultant).
New Models and Methods
Similarly, we were treated to presentations of several new models: of the cognitive processes involved in classifying in lumping and splitting (Oh), for example and in learning how to classify (Shawne Miksa); of the relationship between classifying, as the act of assigning labels to classes, and other cognitive activities such as counting and writing (Tennis); of knowledge organization systems as artificial languages rather than as hierarchical trees (Scharnhost and Smiraglia); of classes as situated in rhetorical space (Fox); and of the relationship between bibliographic/documentary classification and the scientific classification of naturally occurring phenomena (to which both Dubin and Green & Martin alluded).
Hlava reminds us how the explanatory role of theory is significant not only for the design of new kinds of classificatory structures, but also for new kinds of uses of those structures new applications of theory to practice, in other words in systems designed for the improvement of search, retrieval and related tasks. Meanwhile, Nicholas Weber and Andrea Thomer, both University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, and Gary Strand, National Center for Atmospheric Research, demonstrate the use of what Birger Hjørland calls pragmatic classification in which classes are identified on the basis of usage for identifying the elements in a metadata schema for climatology; while Jansen reviews the use of the concept of boundary object to understand classification practices. Such work may be characterized as the application of otherwise well-understood methods in new domains.
Did we hear about any new methods of building classificatory structures and knowledge organization schemes? Methods that prioritize the needs of specific groups (for example, Martínez-Ávila and Smiraglia) and that involve crowdsourcing (for example, Jane Greenberg, Angela Murillo, both University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and John Kunze, California Digital Library) were discussed, and part of Adlers contribution was her account of the history of methods of dealing with new topics and subjects. But the methods discussed probably should not be counted as innovations.
It is similarly difficult to identify, among the contributions to the workshop, any new principles for the construction of classification schemes. Smiraglias domain analysis (not presented) shows that were comfortable with a plurality of methods and approaches, and what is more, comfortable with the extent to which those approaches are compatible if not complementary. We may well still seek principled answers to questions like the following: Should classification schemes be theory-driven or based on empirical observation? Should classification researchers in the information sciences (broadly defined) be concerned with classification of natural kinds or just of artifactual kinds? Whatever new principles are proposed, which of them (if any) reach the status of ethical principles? The possibilities might include principles that emphasize flexibility and pluralism (Campbell); that recognize that classification practices should be participatory and classification schemes, thus, user-centered (Adler); and that such approaches require that all voices should be heard in the construction of classification schemes (Fox, Roberto). These latter proposals essentially would be a re-affirmation of the principle of user warrant to wit, the terms and structures that are used by the members of groups who share a social identity are the ones that should be included in classification schemes (Roberto). Greenberg, Murillo and Kunze further suggest that there should be full participation in the evaluation of candidate terms/concepts for inclusion in classification schemes, thereby giving participants a sense of ownership.
In alignment with the already-noted emphasis on the temporal and historical, the new method of analysis of the moment seems to be ontogenesis. This method derives from Tenniss suggestion that we can and should explore the life of the subject over time an empirical method that enables better understanding of the factors that influence the course of a classification schemes development (for example, Fox; Scharnhorst and Smiraglia). Campbell wants to combine ontogenetic analysis with principles of flexibility and pluralism, partly in order to predict future changes in classification schemes. Martínez-Ávila and Smiraglia talk about new extensions of discourse analysis as methods of ontogenetic analysis that [reveal] knowledge as artificially constructed by social factors. Workshop participants were also introduced to methods of analyzing the discourse of domains to identify terms for inclusion in specialized vocabularies (Christine Marchese, Nassau Community College, and Richard Smiraglia), and the use of diaries and interviews rather than direct observation as a way of collecting data about personal classificatory practices (Oh).
New empirical data that were reported in workshop papers include Smiraglias data (not presented) on citedness, rates of self-citation and disciplinary association of classification researchers; Elizabeth Milonass (Long Island University) data that will inform the designers of the faceted search features of web search engines; Ohs data on the ways in which people organize personal files, which leads her to propose a new model of such practice as a five-stage process, which is intended to be useful for designers of new tools and interfaces supporting such practice; the results of Scharnhorst and Smiraglias ontogenetic analysis, showing the gradual evolution of intension over time; and Fran Miksas findings from his investigations of ancient, medieval and Islamic classifications. New methods of presenting data included Scharnhorst and Smiraglias visualizations of classifications over time, and Lori Ann Rung Hoeffner, Adelphi University, and Smiraglias visualizations of the results of domain analyses.
Workshop participants heard much about new methods of evaluation. With respect to methods of evaluating the field of classification research, Dubin points to the ever-increasing specialization of scholarly communities and asks: Is that a sign of success or an indication that were missing the opportunities for progress that come with interdisciplinarity? Jansen discusses critical-analytic methods of evaluating the theoretical frameworks that underlie classification research; Hoeffner and Smiraglias method of evaluating domains uses coherence as a criterion; Green and Martin demonstrate the need for effective methods of evaluating and choosing among different scientific classification structures; and Milonass study of the relationship between expert inspection and users perceptions of usability could even be considered as a contribution to the literature on the evaluation of methods of evaluation! Several of these methods apply new criteria for evaluating classification schemes (and other products of classification theory and research) and/or classificatory practices. From Habermas (via Martínez-Ávila & Smiraglia), were reminded that theory is used to predict, to explain or understand, to emancipate and to deconstruct. I think were clearly seeing a shift towards the latter half of this list in our prioritization of criteria for evaluating the products of classification research. Greenberg, Murillo and Kunze additionally propose the use of sustainability as a criterion for evaluating classification schemes.
The potential for new definitions of the nature of classification, of classification theory and of classification history was mentioned by both Fran and Shawne Miksa. Dubin considers the relationship between aboutness and topicality and asks: Is a topic a thing, or a concept? Possibly new methods of creating definitions include domain analysis and bibliometrics (Smiraglia), and methods based on the kind of phenomenon being classified (Tennis). Echoing the parallels drawn by Fran Miksa between the history of writing and the history of classification, Tennis asks: Are counting and writing themselves kinds of classification? Fran Miksa reminds us that people became interested in the classification of the elements of knowledge (that is, subjects) only relatively recently, and that the classification of both physical objects and informational entities has a longer history. Steven MacCalls (University of Alabama) model of the relationships among works, texts and artifacts (rather than the more familiar combination of works, expressions, manifestations and items) could be viewed as a specification of new kinds of objects to be classified; Lei Zhang and Hur-Li Lee, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, advocate for genre as a new dimension or facet by which objects are to be classified.
Accompanying new principles and practices are new problems to address. These challenges include not only the problems that are due to life happening and to the fact that the information explosion has only just begun (Hlava), but also those that emerge as unintended consequences of the application of innovative methods. The crowdsourcing of tags for use as class labels, for instance, may lead to undesirable results such as a tyranny of the majority or a Matthew effect in which less-popular classes are less likely than more-popular ones to grow in popularity in the future. Questions about the extent to which such methods are fair or just may be conceived as having an ethical dimension. Im not sure that the ethical ramifications of the decisions made by classification-scheme designers (as distinct from those made by classifiers) were adequately covered at this particular workshop.
New Goals and Paradigms
Did workshop participants characterize classification research as having any new goals? Fran Miksa proposes a framework for understanding how the goals of designers of classification schemes have changed over time, distinguishing among the pragmatic, scientific and aesthetic functions of such schemes that have been prioritized in different ways in different periods and cultures. Shawne Miksa provides a list of questions that serves well as a comprehensive statement of the various goals of classification research one stand-out being the goal of creating living classification schemes. Tenniss emphasis on the temporal reminds us of the importance of the goal of understanding the dynamic intensions and extensions of concepts, and Hoeffner and Smiraglia demonstrate the value of classificatory practices in defining the boundaries of a domain or discipline. Otherwise, the assumptions that appear to underpin much of the work presented were that classification is a means to the end of resource discovery, and thus the appropriate goal of classification research is to contribute to improvements in the design of retrieval and access systems.
Neither was it clear that any radically new paradigms or theoretical frameworks were identified on the day. Certainly, several speakers made reference to a (seemingly ongoing) battle between positivists and constructivists, and this tension was explored in different ways in different papers (for example, by Jansen, and by Martínez-Ávila and Smiraglia). The closest we came to something that amounts to a whole new way of thinking about classification research, I think, was Campbells suggestion that classification schemes should be understood as living, breathing organisms that change rhythmically over time. To my mind, however, the most valuable innovation of the day was Fran Miksas conception of the history of classification theory. He distinguishes among three historical periods we might call them the periods of unificationism, specialism and pluralism, although Miksa doesnt use these labels himself in a framework that provides an illuminating backdrop to the current turn in classification studies towards the generation of theories, principles and methods that emphasize both the cultural and historical specificity of classification practices and their emancipatory function.
Rebecca Green and Giles Martin explained, A rosid is a rosid is a rosid, and in doing so received special commendation in the 1st Annual SIG/CR Award for Best Workshop Paper Title. But the winner of this prestigious new award was K. R. Roberto, for his paper, Description Is a Drag, and Vice Versa. Kathryn La Barre drew praise for her reference to Mr. MITS (the Man In The Street), as did Jane Greenberg for her analogy between toothbrushes and metadata standards (we all think theyre great, but ideally wed like one of our own), and Andrea Thomer for her realization that hours in climate centers are like cigarettes in prison. (At least, I think thats what Andrea said ...)
Since we heard about so many different aspects of classification research during the workshop, we might have been forgiven at the end for reeling and asking afresh: What is classification research? or What should it be? or even What can it be? My personal response is that there is little need for concern. Classification research is all of the above and more. So long as it stays that way, the field is in excellent shape. On behalf of all the participants, Id like to extend many thanks to the presenters and to the organizers, Kathryn and Joe, for making our 23rd workshop an exceptionally productive one.

Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - C.J. Wilcox scored a game-high 27 points as the Washington Huskies posted a 66-61 win over the Saint Louis Billikens in a non- conference matchup at Alaska Airlines Arena.
Wilcox shot 11-of-13 from the floor for the Huskies (3-3), including 4-of-5 behind the three-point line as the squad snapped a two-game slide. Abdul Gaddy added 16 points and Aziz N'Diaye posted 14 points and a game-high eight rebounds.
The Billikens (3-3) were paced by Cody Ellis who tallied 14 points off the bench, followed by Rob Loe with 13 and Mike McCall and Jordair Jett with 11 points apiece as the team suffered a second loss in the last three outings.
Saint Louis led by as many as six points in the first half, but the squad shot only 3-of-10 behind the three-point line in the period which allowed the Huskies to knot the score at 29-29 at the break.
In the second half the hosts began to pull away as they made good on a sizzling 63.6 percent from the floor.
Washington, which didn't get a single point from the reserves, survived despite shooting only 12-of-22 at the charity stripe.

Royals Help Needy Holiday Shoppers
Manager Trey Hillman made the rounds in Kansas City Friday, including a stop by the Johnson County Christmas Bureau Holiday Shop to spread some holiday cheer.
After spending the morning visiting area radio and television stations, Hillman joined a handful of Royals associates and mascot Sluggerrr at the Holiday Shop, which has been serving those in need in Johnson County for 30 years. The group of volunteers distributed winter coats, clothing, food and holiday gifts to low-income families and individuals from the area. Hillman's first assignment: manning the canned corn and canned peas tables.
The Johnson County Christmas Bureau — a volunteer, non-profit organization created in 1960 to provide food, clothing, gifts, toys and personal care items to those in need — operates the holiday shop each winter. This season's shop is open from Nov. 30-Dec. 8 at the Cherokee Shopping Center in Overland Park, Kan., with plans to help more than 9,000 needy residents. Nearly 100 local groups and organizations — including the Royals, area schools, churches and businesses — volunteer time at the holiday shop each year with 25 to 30 organizations staying involved all year long.
Along with volunteering at the shop, the Royals – through Royals Charities – have also held a coat drive at the stadium for the past four seasons that benefits the JCCB Holiday Shop.

In free agency, I felt the Pats were finally addressing a situation they've been ignoring for a couple years - mostly in '06. Lack of wide receiver talent.
Trading for Welker (Miami) and signing Stallworth (Philadelphia) and Washington (Cincinnati) look to be great moved. IMO, they could've stopped there.
Caldwell of course will be back in New England. Troy Brown says he wants to be back, yet is a free agent and had off-season knee surgery. He only has a one or two years left.
Even if the unlikely happens that Brown isn't back, a group of Welker, Stallworth, Washington and Caldwell looks to be more than serviceable. Plus, Watson is no slouch at tight end.
So why add Moss to that mix?
The Pats, while hated by many, commonly have the respect around the league and with many fans as being a franchise that doesn't waiver from their plan. Build the team with a few stars and a bunch of non-stars that are willing to work hard and make sacrifices.
Work hard and make sacrifices. That's not Randy Moss. Not today. Not yesterday. Heck, not ever really.
I'll give the Pats this - they didn't pay much for him. Yet I just can't see Moss suddenly turning into a Bill Belichick type of player that will give you 100%, no matter if it's a game or practice.
I think New England felt they were falling to far behind star-studded teams like Indianapolis and San Diego. They needed to add talent, I grant them that.
I just don't know if they needed to add a guy with talent yet no concept of team, work ethic and authority.
4th round pick for Moss is a no brainer in my opinion. As a Packers fan I was kind of po'd that the Pack did not go after him harder. Even if he does not perform like he is capable of performing you just cut him and it's no big deal. The rich get richer.
4th round pick for a guy that will still command double teams? No brainer.
I wish the Steelers weren't so tight and would pull stuff like this once in a while. They can't beat the Ravens with what they have coming back.
This was a great trade for the Pats. You get a guy that is a serious deep threat for Brady and they gave up nothing for him.
Pats made a heck of a deal. Sounds like a little jealousy to me. Brady will keep Moss in check. In fact I think Moss being with the Raiders was somewhat of a humbling expirience for him as he realized the game is bigger than he is.
I'd still take Moss 10 times out of 10 over T.O. At least with Moss you don't get the 3 ring circus show that comes with TO, you maybe only get 1 ring once in awhile but I'm pretty sure he knows that the Pats would not hesitate to cut him if he all the sudden reverts back to the Moss that was a headcase in Minnesota. Being on a winning team that may be the favorites to win the Super Bowl this coming season can go a long ways towards keeping a player like Moss happy and productive.
Moss put up sick numbers with a good QB (something Oakland didn't have). With Tom Brady, we might see the old Randy Moss which should be scary for the rest of the league.
I agree that Moss doesn't exactly fit the Pats' mold, but I think he was humbled in Oakland and he sought out the trade to New England. Plus, if he's a punk, he won't play, and he knows that.
I think it was a great move by the Pats and I think they are the hands down favorite to win it all next season.
Jealousy? LOL
Yeah, I want Moss on my team. Put him next to "The Cancer", formerly known as T.O. That would be real swell...
I just don't like the move. I felt the Pats did enough to shore up their receiver problems without Moss. Now they've added a guy that likes to complain and not work hard to their hardworking team.
IMO, it's oil and water.
This trade makes the Patriots the sure-fire favorite for the Super Bowl. I jus twish my Cowboys didn't have to play them this year.
Hopefully they play them twice.

Moss wasn't a problem when Minnesota was winning. Then there were some character issues in Minnesota under Tice (not just Moss), and the situation in Oakland was terrible by anyone's definition. If it doesn't work out, they cut him and their WR depth is still fine.
Personally, I think Moss is going to be great this year.
I think the only question for the pats in this trade was about moss's attitude and the locker room cohesion. A 4th round pick for his kind of talent, no brainer. And the pats are pretty confident in the current leadership in their locker room, and the cohesion and discipline they have. And think about it from moss's point of view. If he can't make it in new england, being worth only a 4th round draft pick, who's gonna take him next if this doesn't work out? Kind of do or die for moss here, and the pats know it
Another thing to consider is Moss won't be the focal point in New England. He's not going to be a team captain. It's not a young team -- it's veteran oriented. In all honesty, I'd be surprised if this doesn't work out.
I think Moss is going to be just fine and I really don't see him being a problem in NE. In fact I think it will revitalize his career and you'll see him have a great season. Going from one of the worst teams in the NFL where he was miserable to one of the best teams I think he's probably going to be glad to just get out of that mess in Oakland and prove he's still an elite receiver. If he is anywhere close to as good as he was with the Vikings the Pats are going to be scary good this coming season.
As a Chiefs fan, I would have killed for that trade. There are only so many Samie Parker sightings I can take.
The Pats have proven they can take on headaches and get results see Brian Cox or more recently Corey Dillon - both of whom were undesireables from an attitude standpoint at the time the Pats aquired them. Both fell in line, and both helped the Pats win.
Randy is a quitter at this point. He only plays when things are successful and then only as hard as he has to. But for a 4th rounder? On a winning franchise? No-brainer, sign him.
I am curious about all the WR signings .. its getting to be a little overkill, they still have the guy from the Raiders trade last year too right? Don't they have 6-7 supposed "starting" wide recievers now? Why the stockpile?

No. 11 Cyclones Lose First Match to No. 14 USD, 3-1
Related Links
During the loss, Kristen Hahn recorded 16 digs for her 45th straight match with at least 10 digs, surpassing the previous school record set by Ashley Mass across the 2007 and 2008 seasons.
Turning Point of the Match
After dropping the first set, Iowa State looked to have regained its footing, tying the match at 12-12 in the second set. San Diego started a run via two Katie Hoekman kills and a Tory Knuth error. A 15-12 media timeout opened the door for Christy Johnson-Lynch to made adjustments without burning a timeout. However, back-to-back Victoria Hurtt attacks were blocked by Hoeckman and Rachel Alvey to put USD up 17-12 in the second en route to a 25-17 second-set win.
If Iowa State would have been able to get back in the match and win, the turning point would have been the five San Diego match points they fought off. The Cyclones converted their third set point with a three-player block of a Taylor Hollins back-row attack by Hurtt, Knuth and Natalie Vondrak to close out the set 30-28 and continue the match.

Cyclone Match Ball Goes to …
Tory Knuth. After not playing at all in Iowa State's five-set victory over UNI on Wednesday, Knuth was back in the rotation from the first serve Friday night. On an evening when very little was working for the Cyclone offense, Knuth proved a challenge for the San Diego defense to figure out. She tied for a team-high with a career-best 11 kills. She also posted two service aces and four block assists, including being part of the trio that denied USD a three-set sweep.
Honorable mention to Kristen Hahn for taking down one of Ashley Mass' many school records for her 45th straight match with double-figures for digs. However, after two sets Hahn's chance at number 45 looked bleak as she only had six digs to her name.

Quoting Christy Johnson-Lynch
"We are disappointed with that match. I don't feel like I prepared us very well. That offense was very fast, faster than I expected. The serving and passing, which had been a strength for us, struggled tonight. A big part of the game was the serve and pass which we struggled with and then it was combined with the speed of their offense."
Cyclone Notes
*Kristen Hahn's 16 digs was her 45th straight match with at least 10 digs, breaking a school record previously held by Ashley Mass of 44 matches in 2007-08. Hahn's last match without at least 10 digs was when she only managed seven digs in a 3-0 Iowa State win over Kansas on Oct. 26, 2011.
*Tory Knuth set a career-high with 11 kills and 25 attempts along with tying a career high with two service aces. Knuth's previous best for kills was eight, which she accomplished twice in 2012.
*Ciara Capezio recorded 11 kills, her second consecutive match in double figures and third of her career.
*Jenelle Hudson recorded her second straight double-double with 35 assists and 10 digs.
*Iowa State outblocked San Diego 8.5-to-8.0, the first time the Cyclones had more blocks than an opponent in 2013.
