Coming into Saturday's game the Yellow Jackets were looking to get back on track from the previous weekend. There was a lot of excitement buzzing around Lyle Hare Stadium with the pregame festivities and Swarm Days leading off to kickoff at 1:00PM. "It was an extremely hot afternoon and both teams were ready to play from the opening kickoff" said Head Coach John Scott.
South Dakota Mines and BHSU demonstrated early their offensive firepower by moving the ball. Sophomore running back Tanner Ehrlich was the first to put the Yellow Jackets on the scoreboard in the first quarter taking a screen pass 50 yards to the end zone. The Yellow Jackets followed Ehrlich's touchdown with two key interceptions in the second quarter that both led to scores. BHSU went into halftime leading 19-0.
"The first possession in the third quarter was very big for us as we came out and added to our lead, which gave us a boost of confidence and a cushion for the rest of the game" added Coach Scott. The Hardrockers answered back with their first score of the game to make the score 26-7. The Yellow Jackets would eventually score again in the third quarter to increase their lead once again to 33-7.
"In the fourth quarter it was a tough test for our defense. In the past two weeks we have seen a variety of different quarterbacks and we met our goal of doing a good job keeping them out of the end zone after being on the field for long periods of time." said Coach Scott.
The Yellow Jackets will now get ready for their first conference game this coming Saturday at Mayville State University. To see the game visit the Mayville Athletic Website to access live pay per view.

SIGNED this 18th day of June, 2012.
CURTIS F. CLARK, ) Case No. 11-11728
KATHLEEN CLARK, ) Chapter 11
Debtors. )
American National Bank (ANB) filed a claim in this case for $1,776,703.79 arising out of
a prepetition default deficiency judgment it obtained against the debtors Curtis and Kathleen Clark
after foreclosing a deed of trust in Pitkin County, Colorado. In Colorado, the holder of a mortgage
note forecloses its deed of trust by requesting public sale of the property and bidding on it. Colorado
foreclosure debtors may challenge the sale before it occurs by seeking to enjoin it; after the sale,
they may challenge its propriety when the creditor seeks to recover the difference between what the
property brings at auction and what the creditor is owed. At Colorado law, the price bid is the
Case 11-11728 Doc# 241 Filed 06/18/12 Page 1 of 8
conclusive measure of the deficiency that the debtor may challenge by raising and proving a defense.
Only if the defendant shows that the sale was somehow improper does the issue of the deficiency
go to the trier of fact. Here the debtors did not answer the petition filed by ANB in the deficiency
case and judgment was entered against them by default. Because that judgment is final and they
waived their opportunity to litigate about the propriety of the sale in that proceeding, the doctrine
of res judicata prevents them from raising those issues in defense of ANB's claim in their
bankruptcy. Thus, debtors cannot meet the presumption of validity accorded ANB's claim and their
objection to the claim must be overruled.1
The Clarks bought a lot in Aspen in 1999 through Starwood R-79 LLC, an entity they
control, and refinanced their purchase money loan with ANB. Several years later, they purchased
property in Costa Rica with an additional $2.2 million loaned to them by ANB and secured by a
second deed of trust on the Aspen lot. When the Clarks defaulted on the note, ANB posted the
Aspen property for sale and sold it on November 25, 2009, Thanksgiving Eve. ANB bid $2.75
million, leaving a principal deficiency of about $1.31 million.2 There were no other bidders. The
Clarks say that they attempted to sell the property at auction the previous summer and received a
high bid of $3.0 million, though not enough to clear ANB's note, and ANB did not consent to the
short sale. The Clarks refused the bid. The Clarks filed this bankruptcy case in 2011 and ANB filed
1 This contested claim is a core proceeding over which the Court has subject matter
jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1334(b) and § 157(b)(2)(B). Debtors appear by their attorney
Nicholas R. Grillot. ANB appears by its attorney William B. Sorensen, Jr. Unless otherwise
indicated, statutory references are to the Bankruptcy Code, Title 11, U.S.C., and rule references are

a proof of claim for the deficiency judgment amount plus interest and fees to the date of the
bankruptcy petition in the amount of $1,776,703.79.3
Now the Clarks argue that the foreclosure sale was conducted in bad faith and that ANB's
bid was too low. They object to ANB's deficiency claim on that basis, but, as set out below, that
objection must be overruled.4
The Clarks' objection included statements of fact supported by documentary exhibits and
an affidavit, argument and authorities, and looked similar to a motion for summary judgment.5 ANB
responded, controverting some of the Clarks' facts, but also providing exhibits and an affidavit,
along with argument and authorities of its own.6 The claim objection was set for non-evidentiary
hearing on November 10, 2011. At that hearing, counsel agreed that the Court could decide from the
parties' submissions whether the substance of the Clarks' claim objection was barred by res judicata
and, if the Clarks' claims were not precluded, the matter could proceed to evidentiary hearing. The
parties agreed that the briefs contained sufficient undisputed factual predicate to allow the initial
legal determination to be made. I told counsel that I would review the briefs and determine whether
further proceedings were necessary. On December 20, 2011, the Clarks filed a reply to ANB's
response.7 So, for the purpose of this Order, I conclude that all of the debtors' factual allegations that
bear on the res judicata issue are uncontroverted. If the Clarks are barred by res judicata from

presenting what are effectively defenses to ANB's claim, they cannot meet the presumption that
ANB's claim is valid and their objection should be overruled.
Section 502(a) and Rule 3001(f) provide that a proof of claim is presumed to be valid.
ANB's proof of claim is properly filed and is prima facie evidence of the validity and amount of
the claim.8 If there is an objection and if the objecting party meets the presumption with evidence
sufficient to rebut the presumption, the creditor has the ultimate burden of persuasion as to the
validity and amount of the claim.9 If an objection is filed and heard, the court determines the claim
as of the date of the bankruptcy petition.10 Here, the Clarks needed to present a sufficient quantum
of evidence in support of their defenses to meet the presumption of validity. They cannot do this
because, as we will see, they are barred by the doctrine of res judicata from relitigating whether
ANB's bid at the sale was sufficient.
ANB and the Clarks agree that Colorado law applies here. Bankruptcy courts apply the
choice-of-law rules of their forum state.11 Kansas choice of law rules apply the rule of lex loci
contractus for contract actions ( i.e. the law of the state where the contract was made).12 Here, there

(Kansas follows the Restatement (First) of Conflicts of Laws that the law of the place of contract

is no dispute that the Clarks executed both the note and mortgage in Colorado. Indeed, the parties
agreed to be bound by Colorado law in the mortgage note.13 Therefore, the law of Colorado
governing trustee's sales, deficiency judgments and, most importantly, res judicata, controls this
claim objection.
In Colorado, a lender forecloses its deed of trust by filing a "notice of election and demand"
(NED) with the public trustee for the county where the real estate is situated.14 The public trustee
reviews the notice and, within twenty days of the notice being filed, mails notice to the owner and
all other parties whose rights may be affected by the contemplated sale.15 Within 60 days of the
NED's filing, the trustee gives a second notice to the same parties. The sale date is set for a date that
falls between 110 and 125 days after the NED is recorded.16 But, prior to the actual sale being
conducted, the holder of the note must obtain court authority for the sale by requesting a Rule 120
hearing in the district court of the county where the property is located.17 At a Rule 120 hearing, the
lender represents that the borrowers are in payment or other default and, if there is an objection, the
lender must show that there is a reasonable probability that there is a default that would justify
foreclosure. The holder must also show that it has complied with the requirements of the Service

force when the sale occured.

Member Civil Relief Act. On a showing of default, the Court "summarily" grants the motion, but
"[n]either the granting nor the denial of a motion under this Rule shall constitute an appealable order
or judgment."18 Nor does granting the motion prejudice the right of the owner to seek to enjoin the
sale or any other rights of the holder of the note.19
The holder of the note may bid at the sale by filing a written bid with the public trustee who
then calls an auction sale. If the written bid is not bested by a competing bid, the property is sold to
the holder.20 If the bid is for less than the holder's debt, the holder may seek a deficiency judgment
by suing the obligor personally. In a deficiency action, the price received at the sale is the conclusive
measure of the deficiency, but the defendant may challenge the outcome of the sale for lack of good
faith.21 The defendant has the burden to prove that defense and if the defendant succeeds in that, the
issue of the amount of the deficiency is one for the trier of fact to determine.22 Plainly put, the
amount of the deficiency and, if the issue is raised by the defendant, the sufficiency of the bid are
the key issues in a deficiency judgment action.
Nothing suggests that the Clarks challenged ANB's motion to sell or that they participated
in the Rule 120 hearing or the trustee's sale. Nor did they seek to enjoin the sale. They did not file
an answer or claim any defenses in the deficiency action. The Pitkin County court entered a default
judgment establishing the amount of the deficiency on April 14, 2011 and that judgment was filed
as a foreign judgment in Kansas, again without any challenge by the Clarks. In short, the Clarks did

nothing in state court to assert the position they have now staked out in their objection to ANB's
Given the opportunity, the Clarks would argue here that ANB's bid was too low and made
in bad faith. But their asserting that ANB's bid was insufficient is barred by the doctrine of res
judicata or claim preclusion. The final judgment that was entered in the Colorado deficiency action
in 2011 involved the same claims and defenses the Clarks rely upon here. ANB's claim and the
Clarks' objection to it are identical to the Pitkin County deficiency suit. Unlike the doctrine of
collateral estoppel which requires that a barred issue have actually been litigated in a second, but
different case involving different relief, but the same parties, a claim in a second action that is the
same or similar to the first action may be precluded by a default judgment in the first action. Courts
applying the doctrine consider whether the prior judgment is final; whether there is an identity of
subject matter between the former and present actions; whether there is an identity of claims in both
actions; and whether the same parties are at issue in both actions.23 Res judicata bars not only
litigated claims, but also any other claims that could have been brought in the first proceeding but
were not.24
The Pitkin County judgment is final and non-appealable. Its subject matter was the amount
of the deficiency owed ANB – the basis of ANB's proof of claim in the Clarks' bankruptcy. The
claims that were or could have been before the Colorado court were the amount of the deficiency
remaining after sale, and, had the Clarks raised the issue, whether ANB's bid was appropriate. The
claims and potential defenses in play here are the same. Finally, the Clarks and ANB were the

parties in Pitkin County along with Starwood, a Clark-controlled entity; they are the parties here,
too. The Clarks do not dispute that they could have raised in Colorado the issues that they've raised
here; instead they concede that they consciously decided not to raise them. Any issues they seek to
raise concerning the propriety of the bid or the calculation of ANB's claim (other, perhaps, than the
accrual of interest up to the date of the petition) are barred here. As they are barred by res judicata
from raising a defense to ANB's claim, they cannot meet the presumption of validity that cloaks
ANB's proof of claim and their objection to that claim must be overruled.
The Clarks' objection to ANB's proof of claim is OVERRULED and the claim is
ORDERED allowed as filed.

He did a post-doctoral Fellowship at the Columbia University Center for Neurobiology and Behavior, working on memory mechanisms in the laboratory of Nobel laureate Eric Kandel. From 1989 until 2006 he was in the Department of Neuroscience at Baylor College of Medicine, rising through the ranks to Professor. At the University of Alabama at Birmingham, he serves as the Director of the Evelyn F. McKnight Brain Research Institute and is the Evelyn F. McKnight Endowed Chair of the Department of Neurobiology. His research focuses on the signal-transduction mechanisms operating to control gene transcription in learning and memory. In addition, his research program also investigates mechanisms of learning and memory disorders, such as mental retardation and aging-related memory dysfunction. He is an associate editor for the Journal of Neuroscience and other scientific journals, and the author of a textbook, Mechanisms of Memory.
Research Interests: Signal Transduction Mechanisms in Learning and Memory
Our interest is in understanding the biochemical mechanisms underlying learning and memory. One of the major advances in neurobiology in the last century was the formulation of the general theory that changes in synaptic connections between neurons underlie information storage in the CNS. From our perspective one powerful offshoot of this general theory is that it allows a reductionist approach, that is, that by studying the mechanisms of long-lasting synaptic plasticity in vitro we can generate insights into the mechanisms of learning and memory in vivo. Using this rationale, for the last decade my laboratory has been investigating the biochemical mechanisms subserving the induction and maintenance of long-term potentiation in the hippocampus. In general our focus has been on signal transduction, with a particular emphasis on the role of protein kinases in LTP. Our work, and that of many other labs, has indicated that four protein kinases play particularly prominent roles in LTP: PKA, PKC, CaMKII, and erk MAPK. By and large PKC and CaMKII have achieved notoriety for their roles as molecular information storage devices; autonomously active forms of these kinases subserve the maintenance of early LTP. In contrast, PKA and MAPK appear predominantly to be involved in triggering the induction of early and late stages of LTP. While we have investigated all of these protein kinase cascades over the last decade, of late we have focused most of our effort on studies of the MAPK and PKC cascades.
A role for MAPK in synaptic plasticity
Our recent discovery of a role for MAPK in LTP has been somewhat of a watershed event for us, and has led us to begin to investigate in detail the role of this signal transduction cascade in the hippocampus. We initially observed that MAPK is activated in an NMDA receptor-dependent fashion in LTP, and that this activation is necessary for LTP induction. Recently we have focused on two issues arising from these observations; how is MAPK regulated in the hippocampus and what are its downstream effectors. We have discovered that MAPK is regulated by both the PKA and PKC cascades, and via these pathways is regulated by a variety of neuromodulatory neurotransmitter receptors in the hippocampus. Thus MAPK appears to serve an important role as a signal integrator in the hippocampus. Furthermore, we have found that MAPK is a critical regulator of both CREB phosphorylation and K-channel phosphorylation in the hippocampus, indicating a broad variety in the types of cellular responses that may be regulated by MAPK.
We are building on these findings through three avenues of experimentation at present. First, we are using knockout animals for specific isoforms of MAPK to test our hypothesis that p42 MAPK (erk2) is particularly important for the biochemical and physiologic roles of MAPK in the hippocampus. Second, we are evaluating new effectors of MAPK, such as transcription factors and other regulators of gene expression. Third, we are using phospho-site specific antibodies we developed in order to determine if MAPK regulates Kv4.2 phosphorylation in LTP and in response to neuromodulatory neurotransmitter stimulation.
Transitioning from synaptic plasticity to behavior
While we have made great progress in understanding the role of signal transduction cascades in LTP, the broader goal of my research is to understand learning and memory in the animal. Our studies in this area are guided by the general hypothesis that biochemical mechanisms for LTP will be valid predictors for mechanisms for learning and memory in vivo. We are approaching this problem in two ways, by testing two specific predictions of our overall hypothesis. First, we are determining if the LTP-associated signal transduction mechanisms are activated in vivo when the animal learns. Second, we are determining if blocking these signal transduction cascades, using pharmacologic and genetic approaches, leads to learning and memory deficits in the behaving animal. We use a variety of behavioral paradigms in our whole-animal studies, but have emphasized the cued and contextual variants of fear conditioning because of the robustness of the learning and the relatively well-defined anatomical substrates of the learning. For our biochemical studies in vivo we are using various phospho-site specific antibodies that we and others have developed, which selectively tag activated forms of PKC, MAPK, CaMKII, and CREB. Our studies to date have used Western blotting procedures to quantitate anatomical subregion-specific changes in phosphorylation of these molecules. One particularly exciting new avenue we are pursuing is utilizing these same antibodies in immunohistochemistry procedures, so that we will be able to obtain much more precise anatomical localization of biochemical changes in the animal's CNS that result from learning. We are of course coupling our behavioral and biochemical studies in vivo with the kinase isoform-selective knockouts described above, in order to investigate the necessity of these specific enzyme species for both learning and learning-associated biochemical changes.
Potential insights into hippocampal pathologies
We also are interested in using what we have learned about hippocampal synaptic plasticity to generate insights into human pathological conditions. With this in mind, we have been using the kainate model of epilepsy to investigate the potential role of MAPK in epileptogenesis. In our pilot studies we have observed striking hippocampal MAPK activation, CREB phosphorylation, and K-channel phosphorylation after kainate injection. We will be pursuing these observations using pharmacologic and knockout manipulations to determine if these changes are causally related to seizure generation in the animal. A second major line of investigation is related to Alzheimer's Disease. We utilize transgenic (mutant APP and presenilin) mouse models for AD to determine if hippocampal signal transduction mechanisms and transcriptional regulation mechanisms are deranged in this learning-deficient mouse strain.
a7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Aging-related Memory Loss
Another of our recent projects involves the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor which is highly expressed in hippocampus and in cholinergic projection neurons from the basal forebrain. These structures are especially interesting to our lab since they are particularly vulnerable in aging related memory loss. Also of interest in our research, elevated levels of -amyloid peptide have been shown in previous studies to lead to hippocampal dysfunction, but the mechanism is not known. We are testing the hypothesis that -amyloid peptide directly interacts with the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor by evaluating the effects of -amyloid peptide on hippocampal physiology and testing the role of the alpha 7 nicotinic receptor in these effects.
Mental Retardation Syndromes
Over the past few years we and several other groups have begun using a new approach to bridge the gap between specific molecules and human cognition. The essence of this approach is to identify naturally occurring human genetic mutations that result in mental retardation/learning disorders and use knockout and transgenic mouse models to generate insights into the underlying molecular and cellular basis for the defect. The rationale is that this will give insights into the humans who are missing the same gene and hence give insights into the molecular neurobiology of human cognitive processing. We have used this approach, in collaboration with several investigators across the country, to study mouse models including the mouse model for Angelman syndrome, Rett Syndrome and Fragile X syndromes. The characterization we perform on these mouse models consists of electrophysiological, biochemical and behavioral assessments which lead to a greater knowledge of the causes and implications of these disorders in humans.
Overview and Future Directions
In broad terms, our future scientific goal is to capitalize upon our recent insights into the signal transduction mechanisms operating in hippocampal synaptic plasticity; we will do this by utilizing a multidisciplinary approach combining in vitro biochemistry, electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry, and behavioral assays. We will use both pharmacologic and genetic experimental manipulations in order to investigate both the molecular basis of normal learning and the biochemical derangements that underlie pathological conditions affecting learning and memory.

I raised my son, Aaron, alongside lettuces and carrots and melons and french beans. When he was a baby I placed him along the edges of the fields or orchards where we were working. I would keep him within hearing and sight distance of us as we hoed or thinned or harvested.
His world was filled with the smells and sounds and tastes of the farm: boxes of fresh food, people working with their hands, textures and changing temperatures, shadows and light. My son developed an uncanny ability to find, out of thousands of plants in a field, the season's first ripe strawberry, or in vast orchards, which tree had the sweetest peaches or plums.
Life at school was another reality. I remember stopping by to visit my son at lunchtime. The cafeteria was shut down. The ladies with white aprons and hairnets and the trays with hot food that I remember as a kid were gone, and in their place was Pizza Hut and Snapple and Taco Bell.
A crowd would gather when my son unveiled the lunch that he himself was required to harvest and prepare. Most days he would sneak off to the restroom to eat his sandwich of home-grown tomatoes, basil and cucumbers, embarrassed to be so different.
In his thirteenth year he came home from junior high school and proclaimed that he didn't want to eat fresh food and be so different from his friends. I allowed him to rebel and drift from the farm and the world in which he had been raised. He ate at McDonalds and spent his spare time hanging out in shopping centers and video arcades. Eventually his need to rebel mellowed and the farm boy in him returned.
Recently I asked my son about growing up on the farm. I expected him to talk about the peaches or apricots or Santa Rosa plums. Instead he told me that growing up on the farm had taught him about the sacredness of food and the land. His understanding included more than the knowledge that food didn't magically appear on store shelves: My son knew that it didn't need to be dowsed with poison or shot up with gamma rays or have its genetic makeup messed with.
He struggled with the contrast between his experience and what he witnessed elsewhere. He recalled the seven- and eight-year-old children in Guatemala we visited who sprayed crops without wearing masks--crops that would end up on northern tables. He was confused that with all of our technology and all of our agricultural cleverness, thousands of children die each day as a result of malnutrition and related illnesses.
My son is almost 20 now. He wears a safety pin in each ear, long sideburns and a partially developed goatee. He writes poetry and plays, listens to hip hop music and plays college soccer. He loves to come home to the farm, harvest, eat from the fields, and revisit the special place of his childhood. Each time he leaves to pursue his own dreams, I let go knowing that he has been well nourished by the land, nourished in a deeper soulful way than from the beans and the carrots and the tree-ripened fruit.

|Vandals grit one out
MOSCOW, Idaho – University of Idaho head coach Don Verlin talked a lot in the preseason about defense and rebounding and the Vandal men got exactly that on Saturday in a 73-66 home victory over UC Davis at the Cowan Spectrum.
Idaho (2-4) scored a season-high 17 points in transition, made 26 free throws at a .839 percentage – both season highs – and out-rebounded UC Davis (1-4) by a 35-24 margin while also forcing 17 turnovers.
"We held a pretty good offensive team to 31 points (in the second half)," Verlin said after the game. "We weren't great offensively tonight, but this team needs to be able to win with its defense and rebounding and we were able to do that tonight."
Junior guard Stephen Madison led all players with 21 points on 7-of-14 shooting, including a 7-of-8 effort from the free throw line. Senior Kyle Barone cracked the 1,000-point barrier with a put-back in the final minute of the first half and finished the game with 12 points, eight rebounds and three assists. Barone also netted six of his seven free throws. Sophomore Connor Hill was the third Vandal in double figures at 11 points.
UCD's Corey Hawkins led the Aggies with 20 points on 6-of-13 shooting, along with six assists and a pair of steals. Ryan Sypkens added 14 points and Ryan Howley had nine points and 10 boards for UC Davis.
Verlin said he was pleased with the defensive efforts of senior guard Mansa Habeeb on Hawkins, who entered the game averaging nearly 22 points.
"You look at Mansa Habeeb, he had zero points and four rebounds, but I thought he did a good job," Verlin said. "When Corey Hawkins got hot, he did a good job of harassing him and I'm not sure he shut him down, but he really made him earn his points."
Idaho went 21-of-50 (.420) overall and 5-of-12 (.417) from 3-point range in the game. UC Davis shot 47.2 percent overall (25-53), but went just 8-of-28 (.286) from long range and 8-of-11 (.727) from the free throw line.
Verlin said UC Davis' high ball pressure led to more looks closer to the basket and more opportunities to attack off the dribble. The Vandals entered the game shooting just 62 percent from the free throw line, but made the most of their season-high 31 attempts on Saturday.
"They were pressuring our perimeter really hard and we felt like we had to continue to go inside and we felt like we had to continue to drive our ball," Verlin said. "Kyle and Steve were able to get it down there around the low block and get fouled, and then they fouled Connor a couple times late. They were playing strung out, so you've got to drive your ball or dump it inside to break down their pressure and we were able to do that."
The first half featured five ties and three lead changes and neither team led by more than six points in the period. A Madison layup at the 12:28 mark of the second half keyed an 11-0 Vandal run that gave Idaho a 55-47 lead with 9:04 to play.
After a steal and three-quarter-court solo fast-break dunk by junior forward Marcus Bell, Idaho went up by 12 points, 62-50, with six minutes to play and appeared to have the game in hand, but a 9-0 UC Davis run made things a little more stressful at 65-61 with 2:37 in the game.
UC Davis' 17th turnover of the game was what junior guard Denzel Douglas called, "probably the easiest steal I'm ever going to get."
After a Douglas free throw put Idaho up 69-66 with 17 seconds to play, there was a miscommunication in the backcourt and UCD's Ryan Howley tossed the ball inbounds directly to Douglas after his teammate made a cut in the opposite direction.
Douglas was quickly fouled and sank both freebies to give Idaho a two-possession lead and clinch the win. Idaho got two more free throws with just over one second left to ice the win.
With some positive momentum, Idaho now moves on to a quick pair of road games. The Vandals play at Eastern Washington on Thursday, Dec. 6, at 6 p.m. (PT), then immediately head down to El Paso, Texas, for a Saturday game at UTEP at 6 p.m. (PT).
"We did some good things tonight," Verlin said. "We're a long ways away from being the team we're going to be, but we're going to be a pretty good team when we get this thing put together."

Taiwan's technological revolution and the devoted work ethic of its people are well known, but this tiny island nation off the coast of China possesses a plethora of little known surprises, among them: misty towering peaks famous for sunrises and high-mountain tea; the world's finest Chinese art museum; coral reefs and sea critters that thrive in its tropical waters; aborigine peoples who are alive and well and still practice such age-old traditions as harvest dances; and undoubtedly the best Chinese cuisine in the world. National Geographic guides the traveler through this enchanting land of unexpected charms with this lavishly illustrated, fully updated guidebook.
Broken into six regional chapters, this fully updated edition of the guide begins in Taipei, where traditional night markets and bustling Taoist temples contrast its 21st-century skyline (the tallest building in the world is under construction here). You then explore Taipei's surroundings and other sites in the North, including the potter's town of Yingko, where you can stroll down one long lane devoted to pottery shops featuring works made right in town; take the cure at Beitou hot springs; and hike through Yangmingshan National Park, popular for its mountain scenery and spring flowers.
Next it's off to Taiwan's East Coast and one of Taiwan's major tourist sites, the stunning Taroko Gorge, a marble canyon etched with a roadway for easy access, but branched with lots of remote hiking trails. Take a drive farther down the coast through the East Coast National Scenic Area, along high-steeped cliffs past turquoise seas and sandy beaches. In the south of the island, you won't believe the gorgeous beaches lapped by turquoise waters; Kenting National Park is a prime birding spot, but is also known for its outdoor activities, including boating, fishing, and hiking. Explore some of the remote offshore islands in the Taiwan Straits, including Penghu, famed for snorkeling, scuba diving, and charming fishing villages; and Kimen, a national park island whose underground military bases offer insight into the tenuous Sino-Taiwanese relationship. Wrapping back north through central west Taiwan, you can take the alpine railway to the tiptop of 10,000-foot Alishan, a mystical realm high above the clouds offering hiking, fabulous scenery, and the chance to relax. Neighboring Jade Mountain, Taiwan's highest peak, lurks in the distance, beckoning the brave and adventurous to climb its summit. Sun Moon Lake lies nearby, its peak-ringed waters changing hues with the daylight, creating romantic scenes popular among the honeymooners who flock here.

He now lives in Bangkok, working as a freelance journalist and writer, and contributing to a number of regional and international publications.
The award-winning National Geographic Traveler has been enhanced with engaging new features and a contemporary redesign. Each guide begins with an introduction that enables you to sample a bit of the culture, history, and attractions before you go and plan the trip based on your own interests and length of stay.

A kitchen is a starting place–for a day, for a meal, for a career, for a life in a new country. The hospitality industry employs them, so it seems appropriate that a restaurant has stepped up to create a college scholarship for first generation students.
Sonora Grill and Weber State University are uniting to give low-income, first generation immigrant students in Utah aid to complete their higher education.
"The Sonora Grill Scholarship Fund benefits underserved and overqualified individuals whose parents have nonresident status in our community," says Steve Ballard, owner at Sonora Grill.
You can support the Sonora Grill Scholarship Fund at the Dining for Dollars fundraising event at Sonora Grill on Thursday, April 11 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Sonora Grill will offer a selected menu for $12 or guests can dine off the regular menu with the option to donate. The $12 menu includes an entrée, chips, salsa and drink. Reservations are suggested. For more information visit www.thesonoragrill.com or call 801-393-1999.
One hundred percent of all sales proceeds will be donated to Weber State University Foundation to fund the scholarship program. An anonymous donor will match Sonora Grill's contribution up to $25,000. The program goal is to develop a dowry and grant annual scholarship allotments.
An estimated 65,000 undocumented students graduate from U.S. high schools each year. Only 5 to 10 percent will attend college because of cost or eligibility requirements. Many immigrant students graduate at the top of their class and are part of the 1.5 generation - first generation immigrants raised in the United States from a young age.
Sonora Grill has teamed up with Weber State's Development Office, John B. Goddard School of Business and Economics, and Multi-Cultural Student Office to award a two-year, full-ride scholarship to one college sophomore. The recipient must be the first family member to attend college and be a Utah high school graduate. The scholarship is effective fall 2013. It includes tuition, books and fees.

Former Boston Celtics and Miami Heat basketball player Antoine Walker is still under fire for his debt troubles.
Antoine Walker, the ex-boyfriend of VH1 Basketball Wives cast member Evelyn Lozado, is facing up to 12 years in prison after being ordered by a judge Monday to face trial on felony bad checks charges according to online reports.He has unsettled debt with three Las Vegas casinos. Antoine Walker will be arraigned June 30.
Louisville coach Rick Pitino told Yahoo! Sports last month that Antoine Walker was eyeing a comeback to the NBA after a two year absence and working out with the Cardinals basketball team.
Antoine Walker was a three-time all-star with the Boston Celtics and won a championship with the Miami Heat in 2006. He played briefly in Puerto Rico during the 2009-10 season.
His NBA future is not clear right now, but with a pending trial in place, this certainly can't be helpful.

|Small honored again
DENVER - The Western Athletic Conference selected Idaho's Chelsea Small as its Verizon Wireless Offensive Player of the Week for soccer on Monday after the sophomore's strong performance during the week of Oct. 4-10.
Small, a sophomore from Solana Beach, Calif. (Torrey Pines HS), scored three times and assisted two goals during the week in leading Idaho to wins over Louisiana Tech and New Mexico State. She netted the game-winners in both matches, which give her a WAC-leading seven this season and helped Idaho earn its school-record 12th win of the year.
Small had two goals, with six on-target shots in Friday's 2-0 win over Louisiana Tech, She had six more on-target shots, one goal and two assists on Sunday in Idaho's 4-1, come-from-behind win over New Mexico State.
Records fell on Sunday, as Small set new Idaho standards with her 12th goal and 28th point of the year. With 20 career goals, eight career assists and 48 career points, Small now ranks third in Idaho history in all three of those categories, as well.
The honor is the second of the season for Small, and the third of her career.
Also on Monday, Idaho moved back into the National Soccer Coaches Association of America regional rankings at No. 9 in the West Region. Idaho had previously held the No. 10 spot on the list for a week earlier this season. The Vandals' ranking this week is the highest in school history.
TopDrawerSoccer.com also lists Idaho as No. 57 in its Tournament 64 Rankings, which the site calls, "a running attempt to project the postseason college soccer tournament qualifiers, including every automatic conference berth."
Small and the Vandal women will try to keep their momentum alive this weekend when they travel to Reno, Nev., on Friday to face Nevada, and Logan, Utah, on Sunday, to face Utah State.


text: Characteristics about News Gothic™ Bold Italic: Sans serif faces can get very boring and can be difficult to read. One of the primary reasons is that font designers cannot make many variations in the shape of a sans serif letter, particularly those like 'l', 'i' and 'o'. News Gothic™ Bold Italic, however, has a nice angularity that allows it to wear better than most, and you will find it a pleasant change from the other sans serif typefaces of this world. Originally designed in 1908, News Gothic preceded the more fiercely geometric forms of the twentieth century. This design, with its plainly stated, unselfconscious letterforms, was revived in 1962. You'll find it useful as a text face, but it's quite nice for headlines and section headings as well. Character Set: Latin-1, WGL Pan-European (Eastern Europe, Cyrillic, Greek and Turkish).

Miami Dolphins: What was accomplished during free agency?
The process is pretty simple. Fill the holes.
More talent should come in than what goes out. That's what the offseason is about in the NFL.
Free agency is the first step NFL teams use to improve themselves. It's the first of three offseason opportunities – free agency, the draft, waiver wire rummaging – a team has to get better.
Unfortunately for the Miami Dolphins and their fans, South Florida's beloved NFL team began the process with a desire to upgrade the quarterback spot, a need to find another pressure player, and the goal of fortifying the offensive line.
More than a week into the free agent signing period (its about over folks) and it has become obvious the team created more holes than they filled because of the Brandon Marshall trade to Chicago, and the release of starting safety and team captain Yeremiah Bell.
That's why Dolphins fans have a right to be ANGRY, disappointed, frustrated.
Vent! You deserve it after a decade (minus the 2008 season) of suffering.
Once you calm down, you'll realize improvements to the Dolphins roster were made.
David Garrard is an upgrade over Chad Henne, and should push Matt Moore for the starting spot.
Lydon Murtha re-signing gives Miami a solid starting option at right tackle. Murtha played left tackle pretty well during last year's exhibition season, when he filled in for a rehabbing Jake Long. Right tackle is Murtha's natural position. Unfortunately, Murtha suffering a season-ending foot injury that prevented him from challenging Marc Colombo for the starting right tackle spot last year.
Artis Hicks, who was signed to a one-year deal, is a versatile and athletic offensive lineman who can play tackle and guard. It is possible Hicks could beat Nate Garner or John Jerry out for the vacant starting spot at right guard.
Re-signing Pro Bowl nose tackle Paul Soliai for half of last season's price will allow the defense to remain a 3-4 hybrid, and Richard Marshall should at least improve the nickel cornerback spot as Will Allen's replacement.
But it is easy to ignore all those moves when you traded away a Pro Bowl receiver for two third-round picks (Marshall didn't want to play for these quarterbacks, preferring a reunion with Jay Cutler over rebuilding), and cut the team's leading tackler for the past four seasons (total salary dump that can be rectified by re-signing Bell at a lower price).
That's why it is difficult to say this Dolphins roster is presently better than it was when the 2011 season finished. That's why the pressure is on General Manager Jeff Ireland to deliver in the 2012 draft.
The quarterback spot still needs to be addressed since neither Moore or Garrard are long-term solutions. The Dolphins let Matt Flynn get away, but considering new head coach Joe Philbin knows more about Flynn from their time together with the Packers than any other coach in the NFL it is safe to assume he didn't feel Flynn was worth what Seattle paid.
That means Miami will have to use one of the team's first four draft picks (think top three rounds) on a top-rated quarterback like Texas A&M's Ryan Tannehill (first-round), Oklahoma State's Brandon Weeden (second round), Michigan State's Kirk Cousins (second or third round), or Arizona State's Brock Osweiler (third round).
A year ago if I told Dolphins fans they were getting a quarterback drafted in the first round they would have settled, and celebrated getting the fifth best option (Ryan Mallett). This year it might be No. 3 considering Tannehill, whom new offensive coordinator Mike Sherman knows intimately from their time together at Texas A&M. Tannehill is behind Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III, who will be the top two picks, and he's got a better draft grade than former FSU standout Christian Ponder, who was picked 12th overall by Minnesota.
The Dolphins need to add another receiver with top end talent. Good thing this is the best receiver draft in a decade, and plenty options will be available after one round.
Miami must also add more pass rushers to get after quarterbacks. Jamaal Westerman is a solid player, but is he really starter material?
And if Bell isn't re-signed, which is still on the table, the Dolphins might need to add another safety through free agency or the draft. Good thing the 2012 draft is filled with strong safeties. Unfortunately, there aren't too many free safeties available.
Same can be said about improving the depth on the offensive line, where Philbin wants more athletic linemen.
Ireland clearly has some work to do, and could be facing a make or break draft.
The pressure is clearly on for the last man standing from the Trifecta, and it is time the man nickname "super scout" by his contemporaries delivers on a massive influx of talent.

No. 3 Duke Defeats Women's Tennis

Julianne Moore is mad for beavers. (You're all mature. No sniggering, please.) "I always tell my children"—son Caleb is 14, and daughter Liv turns 10 in April—"that my favorite animal is the beaver, because it's so industrious," the actress says. Then she adds, laughing, "And when they grow up, they'll be, 'Can you believe she said that all the time?' "
But Moore is serious. "Beavers don't seem that industrious when you look at them," she continues, "but they make those dams, little by little." She doesn't just admire the toothy rodents; she identifies with them. "I am diligent," she says. "That's one of my qualities: diligence. Not very glamorous, but true."
Her hard work (she has acted in nearly 50 movies, including Boogie Nights, Far from Heaven, The Kids Are All Right and last summer's Crazy, Stupid, Love), combined with Streep-like subtlety, has led to four Oscar nominations and a reputation as an actress who fully inhabits her characters. And her stature will only be enhanced by Game Change, the made-for-HBO movie about Sarah Palin's vice-presidential run, debuting March 10.
While the best-selling book on which the movie is based covered all the national candidates in the 2008 election, the film focuses on Palin and her increasing estrangement from Republican nominee John McCain (played by Ed Harris) and two key campaign advisers, Steve Schmidt (Woody Harrelson) and Nicolle Wallace (Sarah Paulson).
Moore plays the former governor of Alaska and self-described hockey mom in all her contradictory glory. The portrait she creates is nuanced, complex—and surprisingly sympathetic (the film is less so, depicting Palin as intellectually and emotionally unprepared for the office to which she aspired). Moore, a registered Democrat who voted for Barack Obama, took the part for the challenge it presented. When director Jay Roach sent her the script, she says, "I was flabbergasted. I felt the role was as far away from me as I could possibly go. Once I said yes, I went into a full-fledged panic, because I was like, I don't know where to start."
But she did know. Step one was to wipe her iPod clean and fill it with the audio of Palin reading her memoir, Going Rogue; she also downloaded dozens of Palin speeches and interviews. For the two months before shooting began, Moore says, "I listened to her talk nonstop. I read every book that she wrote, the books that everybody else wrote about her, and I watched every speech and interview on YouTube. I immersed myself in her life, and I canceled everything else in my life." What wasn't part of her research: speaking to Palin in person. Moore says she didn't even try to make contact. "I don't think she was interested," she says.
Moore's intense preparation and commitment impressed her director. "I've never seen an actor work that hard to tap into the essence of a character," Roach says. He remembers that Moore often suggested they substitute a line that Palin had actually spoken in an interview for a line in the script. "She would never push you on it, but if she had found something that was stronger or more authentic, she'd make a pitch for it. She won a lot of those debates," adds Roach, who calls her performance "an embodiment, not an impersonation." Costar Sarah Paulson says, "I never felt that she was commenting on Palin's choices or her political moves from an acting perspective but rather that she was trying to play her with as much truth as possible."

Reviews for Bird Nests
"These are THE most adorable treats. The salty-sweet of the pretzels, not to mention the 'ADORABLE' factor, have made them a delightful surprise for every family member, young and old alike. It all came together quite easily, and will be a must-have for years to come! Thanks for this ingenious and creative delight!"

"A new Easter tradition in our house! I may break the pretzel sticks in half next time to make a little smaller nest. Our 3 kids loved "decorating" them almost as much as eating them!"
"I have a similar bird nest design but I use the HERSHEY'S No-Bake Butterscotch Haystack recipe, Peeps, and Jelly Beans. They are an Easter favorite!"
"These were sooo good, I made it with my 7yr old sister and she loved making them. They couldnt have been easier or yummier!!!"

ZF-9488: only use the region part (instead of locale) if only the region is needed (Iban, PostCode)
The validators Zend_Validate_Iban & Zend_Validate_PostCode need (or can use) a region code to validate a value. But they don't need the a complete local!
Additionally The language part is not in evidence if your application only knows a region. -> For example the region of china is CN but cn_CN isn't a valid locale. You have to use zh_CN.
I see Zend_Validate_PostCode uses the locale:
$format = Zend_Locale::getTranslation(
I don't tested it if there is a way to get the format of the post code but i don't know why a post code could be specific by a language as by the region.
There is no way to get the data from a locale only by region without a full qualified locale.
This is already described within the manual.
Implemented by another feature.
Note: "They need no complete locale" is wrong. A locale always consist of language and region. The region alone is no locale. Therefor the region alone can not be seen as locale. Components which are based on localization must work according to this rule.
I doesn't say that IBAN and PostCode validators are localized. They aren't. They are based on territory. I understand if you say there is no way to get the PostCode only from a region but to select a locale from a territory to get it is more a workaround as a fix. Additionally there are special territories without having a locale (e.g. Hong Kong)
Wikipedia: In February 2005, 117 of the 190 member countries of the Universal Postal Union had postal code systems. Countries that do not have national systems include Ireland and Panama. Although Hong Kong and Macau are now Special Administrative Regions of China, each maintain their own long-established postal system, which does not utilize postal codes for domestic mail.

It sounds like light switches and lights are usually wired with 14/2 cable. Is it okay to use 12/2 cable instead? Would I need special switches?
As long as you have a 15A circuit breaker on that circuit, it's OK to use 12/2 NM cable for your lights. Since the maximum current on the circuit will be 15A, you won't need special switches. You should label the wire that it is 15A, not 20A, so that someone else doesn't come along and treat it as a 20A circuit.
You'll probably also find that you won't be able to use the insertion fittings on the back of the switches (but that's OK, IMO, because I always use the screws), and you definitely won't be able to use the electrical nuts that come with your lights, so you'll have to get your own (and making a secure connection might be trickier with 12 gauge).

Putting on a race
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Does that send chills down your spine? I've done a lot in cycling but this is one of the most fearful items of my cycling todo's on my list. Recently, Whitney Debroux talks of his process to get a race organized in Prospect near Longmount. He thought it might be easy but so far its not been. Then you have a different problem of promoting which is what Chris Grealish of DBCevents.com has which is cost and PR. Yes, he loves cycling but he wants to make some money. And if it isn't cost that is getting to him it's the PR aspect of the part of promoting, remember last year when the womens field started a boycott of the Boulder Roubaix because of the field categories?
It's not a easy task, you have government on one side, $$$ on the other, rider complaits on another, area residents, mother nature, ACA, volunteers, insurance, etc.....
I would love to hear others peoples insight on how hard/easy putting on a race might be, maybe this will help break the ice and get more folks involved in race promoting!

If you love design for kids like I do, then you will love the design book by Carole Daprey entitled Mobilier Design Pour Enfants.
If you speak French, you will love it even more. If you don't, you can still appreciate the history of children's design through the fantastic images. You will recognize prominent designer names and their contributions, and see how design has evolved over the past 60 years. This book showcases nearly 50 of the most iconic pieces in children's design. The book is divided into decades, and it includes historical text by Peter Gencey, designer highlights and much more. It would make a great gift for design-conscious parents. Take a peek into this fabulous book below and head here to find out more.
