I'm probably not the first to say good riddance, 2012
(Page 2 of 2)
Everyone wants to believe that our economy is on the upswing, but if it happens this year, it will be an accident. In 2012 we heard nothing from the president about how he will rebuild the nation, other than middle-class tax cuts. Republican leaders tell us we have to cut Social Security and Medicare and every other program that helps people, but that's where their reforms stop. My friends in business keep telling me that we shouldn't bash Wall Street, but the list of self-dealing, corrupt players grew much longer in 2012 thanks to a bunch of fresh convictions.
Local sports fans had little to cheer about last year. The Islanders are on their way to Brooklyn because their owner couldn't get a taxpayer-financed arena, and there were no solutions offered to keep the Nassau Coliseum from going dark too many nights of the year. The Mets continued to disappoint their loyal fans with promises of better days ahead that are empty words. The Yankees made it to the playoffs, but some of their better players will be gone this year.
If Congress and the president somehow managed to keep us from going over the so-called fiscal cliff as this column went to press, 2013 might be a brighter year. We know there's plenty of money sitting on the sidelines, but no one is going to invest in this country if our tax policy is destructive. Delaying a long-term solution for another six months or a year opens the door to more hostage-taking in Congress that would make 2012 look tame compared with 2013.
They say that we either live in hope or die in despair. Let's get past the despair of 2012 and move on to a hopeful 2013.

has anyone ever meet a stranger out hunting who went out of there way to help you or your kid and became a friend?
has anyone ever meet a stranger out hunting who went out of there way to help you or your kid and became a friend?
Had a friend of mine break down while out hunting and a man and his son stopped to help, ended up towing them out of the woods many miles back into civilization. Wouldn't accept any money for helping but just said that if you come across someone in the same predicament just return the favor. To make a long story short, almost 20 years later in the same general spot where he had broken down, he came upon a disabled rig. Remembering what had happened to him he stopped to see what he could do. It turned out to be the original helpers son, who finally recognized my friend. A great example of what goes 'round comes 'round!!!

Hunter for Life
That is a pretty cool story Jerry.
The antelope my son killed the other day was made available to him by a gentalman that i meet on opening weekend. We were both hunting the same area and camping within 25 yards of each other. When I brought my son back so he could hunt we would talk about the day the evening before our last day he invited us to share his blind and showed my son what a true sportsman is. What a great day and a new friend.
Years ago I went out on a day trip with my wife and kids to scout out some camping areas. I also was lazy hunting deer, as they are easy to bow hunt in this remote area along the roads and trails. We had not seen anything by 3pm and as I went back to my truck I noticed a HUGE puddle in the dirt under the engine. I had blown my power steering. I had two choices to go. Further into the remote area where a lake was and it was MD weekend, or back track to a highway that had no shoulders if I had to pull over.
We went deeper toward the lake. By the time I got to the lake, the truck sounded like a Mercedes diesel on crack and I knew we were not going to make it far. We stopped a Fish and Game officer and asked if he had a SAT phone which he did. He asked we pull up the road a ways and he would turn around. We stopped by a group of families that was camping. They offered to put us up for the night and feed us. The F and G officer let me make a call to have someone meet me in a town about 65 miles away.
We visited with the group of families for a bit and decided to drive the truck till it quit then see where we were.(crazy Idea but thats what I do sometimes)
We made it halfway to the town I was headed to. (Cascade Idaho) My power steering pulley bearing gave out and the pulley went through the fan. We were officially done. It was dark, we were barely on the pavement on WarmLake Hwy.(For those that dont know, thats a freakin long ways from anywhere).
We were there 4-5 min and a guy came along and towed us all the way into Cascade!!!. My truck and a trailer behind his little ford. (God bless you Hershal.) He took no money, no gas, nothing we could offer.
Two months later we were at church and a lady came up to us. It was one of the wives of the family we had stopped by at the lake.
Good people are out there. Remembering to offer help to those we see stuck is hard to do, but after help like that, I always look twice to offer help if I can. Its also amazing how often you will run into those that help you too after an adventure like that.
Now the best part about this story is....my sister opted to come get us, and a man at her church small group didnt want her to come up the mountain highway alone in the dark. He came with her, and helped to get my family and I back home......today he is my Brother-In-Law! What a way to put two people together!!

I hunt because......
A couple of years ago my friends and I were heading from camp to a spot to hunt deer. Long story short my friend and another vehicle got in an accident on crappy icy roads. Both trucks were disabled. We were 18 miles from our camp and it was 2 hours before dark. Luckily two vehicles came by and were able to take us and the other group to their camps. When we asked to pay for their kindness they would not accept they said to just pass it on. A month later my friend was driving down the highway and stopped to help another hunter. He had shot an elk but was having trouble packing it out. So my friend helped. That same hunter was the passenger in the vehicle that gave us a ride back to camp. Small world.

William M. Welch, Donna Leinwand Leger and Michael Winter, USA TODAY
The San Bernardino County Sherriff's Office said on Wednesday that charred human remains were found in the rubble of the burned-out mountain resort cabin where former Los Angeles Police Department officer Christopher Dorner was thought to have been killed after a last stand that involved a car chase, a gun fight as well as the blaze in which he is suspected to have perished.
A San Bernardino County sherriff's spokeswoman said that forensic tests would now be carried out to confirm whether the remains were Dorner's.
On Tuesday, Dorner killed one sheriff's deputy and wounded another as he was cornered after a deadly two-week rampage across Southern California.
Earlier, LAPD Cmdr. Andrew Smith said that until Dorner's body is positively identified "or he's in shackles," the LAPD is continuing under "tactical alert ... as if he's still out there." Police will continue to protect dozens of officers and others threatened in Dorner's online writing.
Smith said it was "highly likely" that Dorner had been inside when authorities heard a single gunshot and saw the cabin burning in Seven Oaks, a tiny community in the San Bernardino Mountains, about 90 miles east of Los Angeles. Live TV showed the structure in flames for more than 90 minutes.
Riverside Police Chief Sergio Diaz told the Riverside Press-Enterprise that Dorner's body had been found, and several other news outlets, citing unidentified sources, said Dorner's body had been recovered. An LAPD spokeswoman told USA TODAY, however, that the department was not confirming those reports.
Smith reiterated that the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department was leading the investigation and would make any official announcement.
One San Bernardino sheriff's deputy died and another was wounded Tuesday afternoon during a dramatic gunfight with a man authorities believed was Dorner.
SWAT teams had fired tear gas inside of the cabin as part of a "tactical operation" and were tearing it down its walls to flush out Dorner, who had reportedly been driven back inside by police when he tried to flee out the back after setting off a smoke grenade.
KCAL-TV reported that Dorner had been holed up since Thursday in a cabin across the street and only 20 to 30 yards from the site where news media gathered and received sheriff's briefings daily on the massive manhunt after his burned truck was found earlier that day.
The station said he was discovered Tuesday by two cleaning women who entered the cabin. According to this account, Dorner tied them up with plastic zip ties and left in their car, wrecked it, then stole a truck from a male driver. He tried to drive that truck away, according to the account, and ran from the truck after encountering state fish and wildlife officers searching cars leaving the mountain.
A man identified as Rick Heltebrake, who works at a Boy Scout camp in the Big Bear area, told KTLA-TV News that Dorner stole his truck from him at gunpoint.
Heltebrake said Dorner came right to the point: "He said, 'I don't want to hurt you. Just get out of the truck and start walking up the road.'" He asked if he could get his dog out of the back. Dorner said okay, but don't take time to get a leash.
After exchanging gunfire with officers, Dorner ran into the woods and broke into the cabin that burned.
Citing an unidentified source, the Los Angeles Times reported that officers heard a single gunshot as a police vehicle tore down the cabin's walls. Flames then began spreading, followed by gunshots - apparently ammunition ignited by the fire.
Authorities let the cabin burn.
"We won't allow them (firefighters) to get close to the cabin,'' said Cindy Bachman, spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. "It's just not safe.''
San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon confirmed at a 4 p.m. PT news conference that one deputy had died and that the wounded deputy was in surgery at Loma Linda University Medical Center near Redlands. He is expected to recover.
Neither deputy has been identified.
The deputy's death was the fourth slaying attributed to Dorner, who also wounded three police officers last week in what authorities said was a campaign of revenge for having been fired from the LAPD in 2009.
At an afternoon news conference after the gun fight and shortly before the cabin began burning, Smith called on Dorner to surrender.
"Enough is enough. It's time to turn yourself in," Smith said, addressing Dorner via television cameras. "It's time to end the bloodshed."
Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck called Dorner "a domestic terrorist," and a $1 million reward, raised from public and private sources, was offered. Police had received more than 1,000 tips by Monday.
In addition to killing Riverside Police Officer Michael Crain, Dorner was the prime suspect in the murders of Monica Quan and her fiancé, Keith Lawrence, on Jan. 29. She was the daughter of a retired Los Angeles police captain whom Dorner blamed for his firing after reporting alleged abuse by another officer. Randall Quan represented Dorner during his termination hearing.
At an early Tuesday evening news conference in Los Angeles, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said that "on behalf of the people of Los Angeles, our hearts and prayers are with the San Bernardino deputy who was shot and killed today."
"Our prayers are with the family, with the people of San Bernardino, with the police and the sheriff's department of that county. I want to thank them for their bravery." He also thanked the city's police officers, "who put their lives on the line every day."
Tuesday's dramatic turn came as Dorner reportedly broke into a home on Highway 38 in the Big Bear area, tied up a couple, held them hostage and then fled with their white pickup truck, authorities said.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said in a statement that deputies searching for Dorner then responded to a report of a stolen vehicle in the 1200 block of Club View Drive in Seven Oaks, outside Big Bear Lake in the San Bernardino Mountains.
"The reporting party said the suspect took their vehicle and described the suspect as looking very similar to Dorner,'' the department said. "Deputies immediately began a search on the ground and from the air for the vehicle.''
"The vehicle was located at Highway 38 and Glass Road. The suspect fled into the forest and barricaded himself inside a cabin,'' the department said.
A short time later, there was an exchange of gunfire between law enforcement and the suspect.
Gunshots could be heard along with officers' shouts on a KCAL-TV audio broadcast from the scene.
The station reported state Fish and Wildlife officers exchanged shots with the suspect after stopping the truck. He then sped away but crashed the truck, taking refuge in a nearby cabin.
The officers' vehicle was peppered with multiple rounds, authorities said.
When deputies approached the cabin, one deputy was hit as Dorner fired out. A second deputy was wounded when Dorner went out the back of the cabin, set off a smoke bomb and opened fire again as he tried to flee, sources told the Los Angeles Times. He was driven back inside the cabin.
The son of the cabin's owner told CNN that there were six cabins on the 10-acre property and that Dorner had apparently barricaded himself in the main cabin, which was larger than the other five.
All roads out of the area were closed, and skiers were instructed not to leave the area immediately.
A search for Dorner, 33, has been underway in the Big Bear area since his pickup was found there Thursday. Road blocks were up throughout the area.
Smith said the sighting of Dorner came at 12:22 p.m. local time. He urged Los Angeles television stations with helicopters over the area not to air shots of ground activity by police because the fugitive could be watching TV or following media reports.
The San Bernardino sheriff also asked the news media to stop tweeting, saying it was "hindering officer safety."
Federal authorities had believed Dorner might have fled to Mexico, according to a federal criminal complaint.
The federal complaint filed last week alleges Dorner killed three people on a revenge-driven shooting spree in Southern California.
The manhunt began last Wednesday when he was named the suspect in the killings of Monica Quan and Lawrence in Orange County..
Hours after police announced they were looking for him, Dorner allegedly fired at LAPD officers, then ambushed two Riverside officers, killing one.
An angry manifesto, that police attributed to Dorner, charges rampant racism in the LAPD and claims that he was wrongly dismissed for giving false evidence.The manifesto's author vowed deadly revenge on those in the LAPD responsible for his firing years earlier, and their families. Police are providing protection for about 50 families thought to be targets.
The search was particularly urgent because of Dorner's U.S. Navy training as a sharpshooter. He was also trained in underwater warfare.
TMZ reported Monday that surveillance video showing a man fitting Dorner's description bought scuba gear at at sporting goods store in Torrance, Calif., two days before the killing spree began.
TMZ reported that police have obtained the video and quoted an unidentified law enforcement source as confirming that Dorner is the man shown in the footage.
TMZ quoted one law enforcement source as saying the video is significant because "it shows what he was up to."
The criminal complaint also says that authorities were tracking a Dorner associate identified only as "J.Y.," who had been spotted in Costa Mesa.
The criminal complaint, filed Feb. 7, said that on that day, police spoke with a boat captain in San Diego who reported that a man fitting Dorner's description had subdued him and tried to steal a boat, telling the owner that he was taking it to Mexico, where it could be recovered. The suspect fled after the bow line of the boat got caught in its propeller and stalled.
The complaint also notes that Dorner's personal belongings, including his wallet and I.D. cards, were found near the U.S.-Mexico border at the San Ysidro Point of Entry. In addition, the complaint alleges, a man matching Dorner's description tried to gain access to the Naval Base Point Loma in San Diego.
Based on its evidence, Craig McClusky, of the U.S. Marshals Service, said in the complaint that there is "probable cause" to believe that Dorner has "moved and traveled in interstate and foreign commerce from California to Mexico with the intent to avoid prosecution."
Investigators raided the Hotel Tapatio in Tijuana on Monday looking for Dorner, but found no evidence on the property concerning the fugitive, ABC10 in San Diegoreported. More than 20 officers searched the hotel following a tip.

Christopher Dorner Complaint

Testimony :: Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton
Commissioner - Helsinki Commission
Mr. Chairman, I commend you for holding a hearing on "Property Restitution in Central and Eastern Europe: The State of Affairs for American Claimants." I would like to welcome our distinguished witnesses for today's hearing and in particular, the witnesses from New York: Israel Singer, Yehuda Evron, and Mark Meyer.
Property restitution for American claimants continues to be an issue that must be taken seriously by governments and citizens of Eastern and Central Europe. Hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers and other Americans who fled oppressive forces during or after World War II are still awaiting the rightful return of property and justice for the persecution that they and their families suffered. The rapid restitution of assets that were stolen during that horrible period is a critical step towards achieving some measure of fairness.
Today's hearing is especially timely as the President of Poland (Aleksander Kwasniewski) will meet with President Bush this week. Last year, before President Bush's June 2001 visit to Poland, I signed a letter to President Bush -- along with several members of the Helsinki Commission -- calling on him to urge the Polish Government to fairly provide for restitution of property confiscated by the Nazi or communist regimes in Poland.
Unfortunately, since that letter was sent, the Polish Government has still not passed a property restitution law. I urge President Bush and the rest of the Administration to raise the property restitution issue with Polish government officials who are visiting Washington, DC this week.
As this hearing will demonstrate, property restitution issues are not limited to just Poland but remain an outstanding, unresolved problem in other nations in Eastern and Central Europe. As we will hear today, progress on this front still needs to be made in Romania, the Czech Republic and Hungary. I urge the Administration to make property restitution issue a top priority with each of those governments.
As the countries of Eastern and Central Europe consider reforming their property restitution laws, they can look to the United States as a leader in considering the restitution of World War II era property. The United States has provided leadership in this area ever since American troops liberated the death camps in World War II. Most recently, the U.S. has been the driving force behind international settlements with foreign governments, the Swiss banks, the European insurance companies, German corporations that benefited from slave labor.
During the Clinton Administration, I took a strong interest in restitution issues and worked closely with World Jewish Congress President Edgar Bronfman in support of restitution for Holocaust victims. In 1998, Congress created the Presidential Advisory Commission on Holocaust Assets (PCHA), to study and report to the President any recommendations for appropriate legislative or administrative actions.
In December of 2000, the 21-member PCHA, chaired by Edgar Bronfman, issued a comprehensive report "Plunder and Restitution: the U.S. and Holocaust Victims' Assets." The Commission worked with museums to identify the original owners of missing artworks and with banking institutions to trace the trail of hidden bank deposits and to develop banking practices to uncover additional assets. The Advisory Commission emphasized the need for the United States to continue to highlight the importance of addressing asset restitution issues and preserving Holocaust-era archives.
Based on the central recommendation of the Advisory Commission's recommendations, in December 2001, I introduced S. 1876, the Holocaust Victims' Assets, Restitution Policy, and Remembrance Act. This bill would establish the National Foundation for the Study of Holocaust Assets, an independent entity of the Federal government dedicated to completing research and disseminating information on Holocaust-era assets, as well as developing policy and promoting innovative solutions to outstanding and future restitution issues.
The Foundation will coordinate the efforts of the federal government, state governments, the private sector and individuals here, and abroad, to help people locate and identify assets who would otherwise have no ability to do so. It will encourage policy makers to deal with contemporary restitution issues, including how best to treat unclaimed assets. The Foundation will be the single most effective facilitator of the identification and return of Holocaust-era asserts to their rightful owners and heirs ever supported by the United States government.
I am pleased that Congressman Brad Sherman introduced the House version of this legislation. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the House and Senate to pass this important legislation.
As we continue our work to resolve outstanding restitution issues, I would like to remember Rabbi Israel Miller, a champion and tireless advocate for Holocaust survivors in the United States and around the world. As the President of the Conference of Jewish Material Claims Against Germany, Rabbi Miller demonstrated his peerless sensitivity, leadership and precise moral compass in stewarding the aging community of Holocaust survivors toward a more just destination. I was pleased to speak with Rabbi Miller in February of 2002 when I visited Jerusalem with his son, Rabbi Michael Miller, the Executive Director of the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York. We all owe a great debt of gratitude to Rabbi Israel Miller for his hard work and commitment to the survivor community.
Mr. Chairman, thank you again for calling this important hearing and I look forward to hearing from each of the witnesses.
Thank you.

The AMA sponsored AMA Go Ride! Month in April to celebrate the motorcycling lifestyle with on- and off-highway motorcyclists across the country. The month-long event featured a number of contests that promoted the fun of riding, educated riders about threats facing motorcycling and encouraged motorcyclists to think about the extraordinary gas mileage their motorcycles achieve compared to their cars and trucks.
During AMA Go Ride! Month, qualifying AMA members in all the various contests were entered into a May 3 drawing for a Shoei helmet, a Tour Master Intake jacket and Cortech tank bags.
The winners, and what they won, are:
AMA Go Ride! Month was also a perfect way to lead into Motorcycle Awareness Month in May, when the AMA and scores of cities, states and organizations urge the motoring public to watch for motorcyclists on the nation's roads and highways. Motorcyclists can also be prepared by taking rider training and wearing appropriate riding gear.

Video: Panetta: Women can now serve in combat roles
SAN DIEGO (AP) - Iraq veteran Alma Felix hopes the U.S. military's new rules to open hundreds of thousands of combat jobs to women will lead society to recognize that female troops can be courageous warriors.
The 27-year-old Army veteran says that women have proven themselves over the past decade in Iraq and Afghanistan and have come home with the feeling that few know of their contributions.
She says, "We disappear into the background."
Across the country, members of the military of both sexes said they accepted the new policy so long as women will have to meet the same standards as their male colleagues.
Others believe the public may not be ready to handle seeing more female troops come home in body bags or with lost limbs.

AmeriHealth's Rashid Named to Key HHS Minority Health Advisory Panel
Michael A. Rashid, a pioneer in the Medicaid managed care industry, has been appointed to the National Advisory Council on Minority Health and Health Disparities of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius this week appointed Rashid to the council, which advises and assists the secretary and the directors of NIH and the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities on matters pertaining to their agencies; the appointment runs through February 2017.
"It is an honor to be given this special opportunity to help address an important health care challenge for the nation," said Rashid in a statement. "I look forward to working with Secretary Sebelius and other government officials to make quality health care more accessible to everyone."
President Obama's Affordable Care Act increased the focus on minority health and the persistent disparities in health care access and outcomes among disadvantaged communities. The law elevated the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities to a full institute, reflecting the new focus, and expanded Medicaid, among other changes.
Rashid has long served the Medicaid community, working in organizations dedicated to making quality health care accessible for all.
He is the president and CEO of AmeriHealth Caritas Family of Companies, and, during his eight-year tenure with the company, he has helped it become a national leader in Medicaid managed care and other health care solutions for low-income, chronically-ill and others. According to a company press release, the Philadelphia-based company has grown from 300,000 members in two states to more than 4.8 million members in 15 states and the District of Columbia.
AmeriHealth is the latest stop in a lengthy health industry career for Rashid. Over four decades, he has held numerous executive leadership positions, including president and CEO of Mercy Health Plan of New Jersey (now Horizon NJ Health). He also served as director of Medicaid operations for Prudential Health Plan's Atlantic Region. And, early in his career, Rashid served as CEO of Total Health Care in Baltimore, one of the nation's first managed care plans.

Wicomico County Early Voting
|Wicomico Youth & Civic Center
|500 Glen Avenue, Salisbury, MD 21804
|Jun 15, 2014
This election, the first choice you'll make is which day to vote.
Instead of having one day to vote, now you can choose to vote on any one of eight days. Early voting centers will be open Thursday, June 12 through Thursday, June 19, 2014 from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. Voting is convenient, accessible and on your schedule.
Who can vote early?
Any registered voter who is qualified for that election can vote during early voting.
How will I vote during early voting?
Voting during early voting is the same as voting on election day. When you get to the early voting center, you will check in to vote and vote your ballot. Like election day voting, you will vote on the touchscreen voting system. With a touchscreen voting system, you touch the screen to make, change, and review selections and cast a ballot. There will be instructions available at the early voting centers to familiarize you with the ballot. You may ask an election judge to explain how to vote, but you must cast your vote alone, unless you are unable to do so because you have a disability or are unable to read or write the English language.

ATLANTA - It's likely your kids have noticed the changes in school lunches this year.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has issued changed dietary guidelines for the first time in 15 years.
The new rules include reducing the amount of breads and grains that can be served to students each week.
Also, different is a decrease in the number of calories that can be served. Now, on a single lunch tray the guidelines call for no more than 650 calories for elementary students, 700 for middle school and 850 for high school students.
The goal is to curb the rising obesity epidemic, but, as always, getting kids to eat the food is a challenge. The Fulton County School System turned to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for help in getting kids to eat school lunches which now offer more fruits and vegetables, but fewer deserts, meats.
11Alive wants to help parents with any questions about the change in guidelines and how to incorporate healthy food into their homes.
We brought in a chef, a natural health doctor and several registered dieticians for a live Help Desk chat Thursday morning on 11Alive News Today.

ROCKWOOD, Mich. (AP) -- Rescue crews pulled a man and his cousin's dog from the frigid waters of the Huron River in southeastern Michigan after both fell through thin layers of ice.
WDIV-TV and WXYZ-TV report Friday that when Jim Swayze's 11-year-old coonhound, Bart, fell through the ice near the Pointe Mouillee State Game Area in Rockwood, he called 911 and home.
His cousin, Lance Eicher, arrived first. Eicher says he went out to fetch the dog before crashing through the ice and into about three and a half feet of water.
Eicher was able to grab Bart. Authorities later used a boat to pull the pair from the water.

Allow me to present my latest mapping project (my previous one, on indefinite standby, has not been forgotten - I will finish it. Promise.).
This is the Moste Beautifulle and Grete Citye of Birdseye. It is perched atop a pinnacle of rock, overlooking the sea. It was originally founded as a lookout, due to the dangers to shipping of a monster that lived in the nearby waters, but it eventually became a bandit stronghold, and then a town. An enormous stone bridge was constructed at a later date, to link the city to the mainland, and many houses have now been constructed even on the bridge's surface. There's a lot more to the history, which I won't go into right now.
When drawing this city, I wanted the buildings on the rock to resemble an Italian hill town, and those on the bridge to be more in the pattern of northern European (Dutch, English) settlements (i.e. long narrow plots with the house at the front and sometimes a shed at the back). There's also a cluster of buildings that are inspired by Islamic houses, which I started adding but then decided didn't look right. They're near the Bridge. I did a lot of research to try and get the look and feel right for this city, and hopefully I succeeded in some areas. Strangely, there's just not that much information around on medieval Italian cities. You don't know of any good websites, do you?
I've included the finished hand-drawn part of the map, as well as a rough contour map for the rock. I still want to polish it up a bit, perhaps redo some areas, and I have ambitious plans to make a 3d model in SketchUp, but that'll probably never happen.
I'd really like to hear people's comments and critiques.
Oh, and this is not a map by Larithas Stone, and so does not belong to the Dispatches series; this was, however, created by Stone's teacher at the CG (and a bit of a hero of Stone, it must be said), Titus Wolfgang.

minutes to extend the lead to 29-13 with 12:09 on the first half clock.
Dawson drained a 3-pointer to stop the run, cutting the deficit to 29-16, but
San Diego State kept the pressure up, closing the first 20 minutes with a 20-8
surge to hold a comfortable 49-24 margin at halftime.

from the Hawks.
A pair of free throws from Dwayne Polee II with 10:28 to go pushed the Aztecs
advantage to 66-36, and a few minutes later, Franklin gave San Diego State its
largest advantage of the game, 81-41, with two free throws.
The SDSU margin never dipped below 30 the rest of the way.

Monday lineup in Goodyear
The Royals travel to Goodyear today to play their second 'road' game of 2010 (it is the first game of outside of Surprise). Cincinnati is the opponent for the 2:05 CT, 1:05 MT start. The Reds are training in Arizona for the first time in their storied history after having spring homes all over the country – from Fort Worth to New Orleans to Miami and all points in between. Cincinnati had been stationed in Florida for all but three years since 1923, with the exception being from 1943-45 due to World War II.
Another note about today's game – Cuban-born lefty Aroldis Chapman is scheduled to make his Cincinnati debut out of the bullpen.
Today's game will be on 610 Sports in Kansas City and on MLB Gameday Audio.
Here's your Kansas City lineup:
(DeJesus – RF); (Getz – SS); (Butler – 1B); (Ankiel – CF); (Callaspo – 2B); (Fields – 3B); (Pena – C); (Ka'aihue – DH); (Anderson – LF); (Bannister – P).

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ Expansion is coming to Major League Soccer. The only questions facing the league's board are how many teams to add, where to locate them and when to bring them into the fold.
Commissioner Don Garber told The Associated Press in a wide-ranging interview Monday that the league's owners plan to discuss expansion ``in great detail'' on Wednesday.
The MLS will play Italian club AS Roma in its annual All-Star game that night.
At the moment, the league is primarily focused on adding a second team in New York. But with David Beckham holding an ownership option and several cities expressing interest in a establishing a franchise, the league could shoot past the 20-team mark in the next few years.

What's eating my tomatillos?
The leaves of my tomatillo plants are being munched away. There are these black and orange beetles, usually found in pairs, other leaves have these tiny orange eggs and others have these little larvae. How do I get rid of them and what are they?!

Re: What's eating my tomatillos?
I posted this question on the Canadian Gardening Facebook page, too, and discovered it's a Colorado potato beetle that's decimating my tomatillos. Apparently they can completely defoliate the plants. I cut all the affected leaves off and got rid of the bugs by hand. I'm going to try sprinkling diatomaceous earth to prevent them from coming back - and before they move onto my actual potatoes and tomoatoes!

LEBANON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio man has been sentenced to eight years in prison after being convicted of causing severe brain injuries that left his fiance's toddler son in a vegetative state.
Thirty-year-old Jason Milby was found guilty of felonious assault and child endangering Thursday in Warren County. Judge Robert Peeler gave him the maximum allowable sentence.
Milby was accused of causing "neurologically devastating" injuries to the 2-year-old son of his fiance.
According to trial testimony, Milby was babysitting the child and his two siblings when the child was hurt in July 2011. The boy now cannot walk, talk, feed himself or see.
Experts testified that the child was either shaken or shaken with impact to his head.
A jury was unable to reach a verdict in Milby's first trial in June.

The American Civil Liberties Union has intervened after a middle school library in Ohio removed the November, 2008 issue of Nintendo Power.
The issue, which features a gun-toting female character from Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, was taken out of circulation at the Roxboro Middle School Library at the direction of Principal Brian Sharosky, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
However, ACLU of Ohio executive director Christine Link argued that the magazine should not have been banned from the library:
Literature should not be removed from a school library simply because one person may find it inappropriate… [the school board should] immediately order that the magazine be reinstated.
Despite Link's argument, the Cleveland Heights-University Heights School Board has backed the principal's decision to remove Nintendo Power #234. With legal action on the matter increasingly likely, legal director Jeff Gamso offered the ACLU's position:
The principal doesn't get to say, 'Whatever I say goes.' There's got to be some mechanism by which decisions are made and a process of review. Or maybe tomorrow it'll be ' "Hamlet" — that's an iffy play.'
UPDATE: Liz Surette of GamesLaw has provided a legal analysis of the issues in this case:
This situation is almost exactly like a case called Board of Education v. Pico, in which parents petitioned the school board to remove specific books that were "improper fare for school students" or "just plain filthy".
The Supreme Court held that once a publication is in a school library, it may not be removed just because it is thought objectionable. The school board may decide which books and periodicals to purchase, but once they are made available on the shelves the children have a right to access that information. If the removal was motivated by a desire to deny students access to ideas with which the school disagrees, then it is unconstitutional.
However, the Court also said that the First Amendment is not implicated if the materials are removed because they are "pervasively vulgar" or if the decision was "otherwise based solely upon the 'educational suitability' of the books". The key fight here will be whether the principal removed NP for partisan/political reasons. I could go into much more detail about the policy rationale behind Pico and tensions with later cases, but suffice it to say that based on precedent the ACLU would surely win if they could prove that the principal pulled the mag just because he found it offensive or disagreeable.

In 1995, Rennie's feature career took off, with a memorable supporting turn in Mina Shum's "Double Happiness", acting opposite Sandra Oh as the boyfriend that her Chinese immigrant parents disapprove of because he is Caucasian. The actor's work in this celebrated Canadian independent won him notice and acclaim, and his portrayal of the awkward bespectacled suitor was most engaging. That same year, Rennie starred as recovering heroin addict Jim in the experimental film adaptation of Jim Carroll's autobiographical short story "Curtis' Charm" (released in the USA in 1996). This project, vastly different than "Double Happiness", featured the actor's unflinching and compelling performance, and pr... Continue Bio >>

CHEVY CHASE, Md. (WUSA/Chevy Chase Village Police Dept.) --- A team of assessors from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA or 'Commission') will arrive on April 7, 2013, to examine all aspects of the Chevy Chase Village Police Department, according to Chevy Chase Village Police Chief John M. Fitzgerald.
CALEA will examine the policy and procedures, administration, operations, and support services. The assessors are: Team Leader, Retired Chief Neil Ferdelman from the Hamilton, Ohio Police Department and Deputy Chief Daniel Mills from the Portage, Michigan Police Department.
The three-day on-site assessment process requires the assessment team to review written materials, interview individuals, and visit offices and other locations where compliance can be witnessed and validated.
Once the CALEA assessors complete their in-depth review of the Chevy Chase Village Police Department, they will report back to the full Commission, which will then decide if the agency is to be granted accredited status.
The Chevy Chase Village Police Department was accredited in August 1998 and reaccredited in August 2001, 2004, 2007, and 2010.
Accreditation covers a three-year period during which the Department is required to submit annual reports and other documentary evidence of continued compliance with 480 written standards.
"Verification by the team that the Chevy Chase Village meets the Commission's best practice standards is part of a voluntary process to gain accreditation - a highly prized recognition of public safety and professional excellence," Chief Fitzgerald said.
On Monday, April 8, 2013, as a part of the assessment process, agency employees and the public are invited to offer comments (limited to 10 minutes maximum) about the Department either by phone or in person as follows:
1. Telephone: Call (240) 876-1493 between the hours of 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. The assessment team will take comments directly from callers during this time.
2. In person: Beginning at 6:00 p.m. at the Village Hall, 5906 Connecticut Avenue, Chevy Chase, MD 20815
Comments must address the agency's ability to comply with CALEA's standards. A copy of the standards manual is available for review 24 hours a day at the Chevy Chase Village Police Department.
For additional information about this process, call the Village Police Department at (301) 654-7300 and speak with Chief John M. Fitzgerald or Jacqueline Parker, Public Safety Coordinator during normal business hours, or Sergeant Tino Dasilva during the evening hours.
Anyone wishing to submit written comments about the Chevy Chase Village Police Department's ability to comply with the standards for accreditation may send them to the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement, Inc. (CALEA), 13575 Heathcote Boulevard, Suite 320, Gainesville, Virginia 20155.
For more information regarding the CALEA, please write to:
13575 Heathcote Boulevard, Suite 320
Gainesville, Virginia 20155
Or call: (800) 368-3757 or (703) 352-4225, or email them at firstname.lastname@example.com.

I don't want to hear anything more about the mythical "Patriot Way". It no longer exists and I hate to say it but I'm not really sure if it ever did.
Part of me has this sickening sense that we as fans were sold this bill of sanctimonious goods as if our beloved team was somehow "different" or operated under some special code of ethics that seperated us from the rest of the NFL "trash". Bunch of bull sh*t I say!
The Patriots operate under the same so called code of ethics as every other team in the NFL does and just because we have the "genius" coach and Tom Terrific we put ourselves above every other team in the league.
Face it, we're no different..and maybe in some respects, worse!
