College Hockey:Spartans Start 2008 Fast With Dominating CCHA Win
Michigan State Beats Lake Superior, 8-2
EAST LANSING, Mich. — It had been almost a month since Michigan State's last win, but even though they had played only two games in that time, the Spartans certainly wanted to get back on track quickly after the last-place showing in the Great Lakes Invitational last weekend.
It took the defending NCAA champions one period to serve notice that the second half of the season will be stronger than the first, as they scored four goals to set the tone and cruise to the win over the last-place CCHA team.
With the 8-2 victory, No. 10 Michigan State improves to 13-5-2 overall, including 9-2-0 in CCHA contests. Lake Superior State falls to 0-9-2 in league play and 2-12-3 overall.
"There were good parts to the game, but there are segments that we need to get better at," said Michigan State Coach Rick Comley. "I think when you score a lot, it hides the true quality of play. Overall we played well. I think we can play an awful lot better, and I think we'll have to.."
Several Spartans dominated the score sheet tonight, with junior wing Matt Schepke leading the way with four points on one goal and three assists. Junior wing Tim Crowder added three points, while sophomore defenseman Mike Ratchuk also notched three points.
The eight goals set a season high for Michigan State, which had scored six goals in four other games this season, and it was the most the Spartans have scored since an 8-0 win over Lake Superior State on Jan. 21, 2005.
"We had to bounce back from the GLI weekend," said Ratchuk. "I think we all came out flying, and everyone contributed."
For Lake Superior State, it was another tough game in a season that is becoming more and more painful in the CCHA standings: the Lakers still don't have a conference win yet.
"Obviously when you get beaten 8-2, you don't play very well," Lake Superior State Coach Jim Roque said. "There were a couple of times in the first period we couldn't get it out of the zone, and they took advantage of it. I thought we looked like we hadn't played in a month."
The first period certainly didn't disappoint the crowd at Munn Arena, as Michigan State lit the lamp early and often. Junior wing Tim Crowder put in an easy shot from the short left flat on a rebound to put the Spartans up by a goal, just 1:09 into the game. Junior wing Matt Schepke and sophomore defenseman Mike Ratchuk assisted on the goal.
However, the Lakers tied it up a few minutes later on sophomore wing Zac MacVoy's surprising short-handed goal, when several Spartans misplayed the puck deep in their own zone. Just like that, Michigan State's hot start evaporated.
But the Spartans fought back on the same power play to take a 2-1 lead on Schepke's eighth goal of the season, as Crowder and junior center Nick Sucharski assisted. Michigan State added another goal with 7:15 left in the period, when senior center Bryan Lerg deflected senior defenseman Daniel Vukovich's power play slap shot into the net.
"It was a very fun game to play," Schepke said. "It was a must-win for us after what happened [at the GLI]. But it was nice to see the team came together as a whole and really play well together."
Finally, the Spartans added a fourth first-period score when Ratchuk scored on a spirited rush to the net with 2:51 left in the period, with Sucharski assisting this time.
"I don't care about the eight goals," added Comley. "I just want quality of play. We're not going to score eight very often; that's not what we're all about."
Ratchuk and junior center Justin Abdelkader added second-period goals for the Spartans, while senior defenseman Justin Gutwald added a late goal for Lake Superior State. At the end of two periods, it was 6-2, Michigan State, and the Spartans were three-for-three on the power play.
In the third period, Crowder added another goal, while freshman wing Corey Tropp netted the Spartans' eighth goal of the game late in the period. Michigan State junior goalie Jeff Lerg finished with 29 saves before leaving the ice with 7:21 left in the game.
"Obviously they didn't play too well last weekend so they were pretty focused tonight," Roque said. "They knew what they had to do, and I thought they played well. I think they were going on all cylinders, and they didn't give us a break anywhere on the ice."
The two teams play again tomorrow night in East Lansing at 5:05 pm ET.

Bushfire in Brabham, near Whiteman Park treated as suspicious
- From: PerthNow
- January 20, 2014
THE fire that threatened lives and homes near the Swan Valley has been listed as suspicious.
In their alert this morning, DFES listed the cause of the Brabham fire as suspicious and asked anyone with information to phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
The fire started shortly before 4pm yesterday and has burnt 29 hectares.
The perimeter of the fire is 3.2km and firefighters are now mopping up, however it is likely that the fire will smoulder for days.
DFES said the fire was now burning in peat which is a build-up of decaying plant matter that forms in wetlands, and because peat burns underground it is near impossible to extinguish.
All roads are open, however speed restrictions are in place on Lord Street, motorists are asked to try and avoid the area and be aware of fire and other emergency services personnel working on site.

i am so frustrated with this disease, it has killed my self esteem and made it neerly impossible for me to even attempt to get in a relationship with a woman. in the past women have been understanding, but now it has progressed to an area where it not only affects me mentally but sexually also. i can only hope that this acutane works like it has in the past or i might just b single for the rest of my life.

No you wont! First of all stop thinking like that! There are women out there who understand and will love YOU for YOU, HS and all that goes with it! Believe me, I too thought I was doomed to be single, then I met a man who loves me for who I am, and he accepts HS and walks the walk of it with me. We have been married for 10 years and have 2 wonderful children together. There are days when I am the biggest bitch on the planet and he even accepts that and knows that it is the pain of cysts talking and not what I truly mean. I have had HS for 27 years and am stage 3 with scars and cysts everywhere you can think..even on my face..if I can find true love, ANYONE can! I am confident that you will find your soul mate as well, it is just a matter of time.

I was right there with you thinking no one would ever want to be with someone who has bumps and scars all over the place. But, like RebeccaV, I finally found the right man and am engaged to be married. I was so scared that he was going to be disgusted with my body, like I am most of the time, but he loves me for me and is continually helping me raise my self esteem. I have had HS for about 15 years now and there was definitely a time when I thought no one would ever want to be with me. I know it's hard, but you really have to keep the door to love and acceptance open, and know that there are gentle, understanding people out there.

I am agree with you,girls..My body is complettely destroyed with HS,but my soul and heart are clean.Due to Hs all my emotional and sexual life was broken down,including my marriage with wrong person.I was down,but,at moment I am with wonderfull girl.Like Rebecca said,if I can find true love,anyone can.Bumpy,be strong and don't worry,you will find somebody.

To all you people out there that share my pain, I desperately need advice. I'm 29 and I've had HS since puberty and needless to say it's no surprise that this has been the bane of my existence and the source of major insecurities and serious self-esteem issues in dealing with people in general, much less get in a relationship with a man and have to tell him about this and attempt to explain or God forbid show him. It is an ugly nasty disgusting disease and frankly if I didn't have it, I'd be repulsed by it. My point is I've never even thought of entering into a relationship because the last thing I need is an unfavourable reaction to this problem which would be even worse for my self-image and self-worth because I already loathe myself enough the way it is. But I just can't go on like this - I need intimacy and I feel like I don't even have a right to want or pursue a relationship. I just want to know that I have that option. To all you brave people who have somehow overcome this barrier and are now in happy relationships, how did you do it? I want to hear from you (especially women). I would appreciate specifics such as when you are interested in someone and start going out with them, how soon do you tell them about this disease? How do you handle it if the reaction is bad? etc.

Listen up people. I am recently divorced and looking back I can say that it was the depression and self loathing that stemmed from self image issues that destroyed my marriage,..not the disease itself. I am going to be blunt here...you need to do some soul searching and learn to love and respect yourself as you are. Once you can do that you will have the confidence to get out there and date again.
Here's the blunt part. Vaginas are vagainas and cocks are cocks ok? Guys...you can still go on dates and be charming....until you get in a situation say where you are watching a movie with someone and start rubbing their shoulders or something. By this time in the relationship there should be at least a little trust established. Once she is really going just get serious and tell her you have a skin disease and that you want to keep your boxers on or whatever...at this point she is already into you and has decided to sleep with you so piece of cake right?
Girls...don't get with guys that are assholes is my opinion. You should be able to tell this well before any sexual encounter. Guys are much more tenacious than women. If they know they are about to get it trust me some boils and scars is not going to stop them! lol
I know this is blunt but these are legitimate issues we young people face with this disease. If nothing else from my marriage I do know how to please a woman orally and I really enjoy it. Now for me I am uncomfortable in having oral performed on me because of the scarring and stuff but thats ok. I can do my thing and then just go into the real deal no problem.
There are understanding people out there. Guys i suggest going for nurses because they medically understand the stuff and it won't bother them as much.
I suggest number one just use this time that you are single to figure yourself out. Meditate and learn how to become comfortable in your own skin. Accept yourself how you are before you try worrying about relationships ok? Work on you and don't look for love....it will find you when you least expect it.
Hope this was not too offensive for some readers and hope this helps.....

HS has been destroying my self esteem for long time. Every time I got outbreak I would stay at home and get into "why me?" mode. Obviously I was psychologically suffering -- even more than physiologically.
With time, however, I learned to accept this disease and that I can't 100% control it. I can manage it to some extent -- diet, exercising, good sleep, stress reduction, and antibiotics (when things are getting hairy). I hope that one day it will go away completely, but now I will keep it in control and if I get another boil so what? I can live with that -- some people have worse health problems and since this is the only health disease that I have -- I feel blessed.
As far as sexual and dating life -- understand this -- HS DOES NOT DEFINE WHO I AM. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT IT'S YOUR PROBLEM -- read it hundreds of times until you get it.

Im 23 yrs old and because of HS ive never been able to feel comfortable getting intimate with a guy. I get to that point and shut down emotionally because of the fear of how my skin looks. I found a good guy right now but i have yet to tell him about HS. I don't know how or when to bring it up. If i should let him know before anything should happen or wait until its going to occur to say anything. I've never had sex or anything because im just so uncomfortable with my scars and boils. This man seems like he really cares for me but to let someone see me .. that way.. I dont know if ill ever be intimate with someone. Ladies HELP!!

I understand what you mean i,m 17 yrs old and i,ve had hs for 4 years. now it has put me down and i would like to have arelationship with a girl. and iwould love to have sex one day and i pray about it .

Peekaaboo I'm in almost your exact same position. I am also 23, and have a guy in my life who wants to see me naked. I can't do it. I'm too ashamed. I don't know how to get over the fear that he will be disgusted with me and leave. Even though he tells me that he knows he'll like what he sees, and I've explained to him that I have a skin disorder, I'm still scared out of my wits that I'm going to lose him.
I feel like I'll be alone forever!

I just turned 31. Ive had hs since I was 16. I could always find a way to hide it, lights out etc.... However, its gotten really bad in the last two years,trust me there's no hiding this. Also, I met my fiance around the same time things worsened. I think you just kinda know when the times right,and whether or not you trust the other person. I had been throwing out hints, and one night had a little to much to drink Andrew told him everything. This may not have been the proper way, but I needed a little courage. After I told him, I actually felt a little silly, like I had made such a big deal out of it, when it didn't bother him at all. He is very supportive and a blessing. However,I know not all me, or women are that way and that's were the courage juice came in. Good luck to everyone dealing with this issue. If they cant handle it, you didn't need them in the first place. Love yourself first and the rest follows. I know somtimes its hard, but your worth it!!!!!!!

Custer adds Cyclone offer while making memories on unofficial
Chris Williams
By Chris Williams, CycloneFanatic.com PublisherFollow Chris on Twitter @ChrisMWilliams
Clayton Custer picked one heck of a day to take an unofficial visit to Iowa State.
Custer, a 2014 point guard out of Overland Park, (Kan.), took a trip to Ames on Monday. It just so happened that two former Cyclones, Craig Brackins and soon-to-be drafted Royce White were at the Sukup Practice Facility working out.
With a handful of current Cyclones hanging around, a pick-up game emerged.
"I was on Royce's team actually," said Custer, who stands at 6-foot, 160 pounds. "He's a really nice guy and was fun to play with. He's so unselfish. Craig was a great guy to. He was nice to all of us. It was really cool."
As if playing ball with a potential lottery pick wasn't enough, Custer received some big news on his unofficial visit as well.
"Coach (Fred) Hoiberg offered me," said Custer. "The first day that they could contact me, I talked to Coach Hoiberg on the phone. The next day, I talked to Coach T.J. (Otzelberger) so it seemed like they were interested in me. I wasn't expecting it but I wasn't shocked either."
Growing up in Kansas City, Custer has grown up a fan of the Big 12 Conference. His early offer list shows that too. Along with Iowa State, Custer claims offers from Kansas State, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State from the Big 12. South Carolina (the new home of former Kansas State coach Frank Martin), Houston, Tulsa and San Francisco are also all on that growing list.
"It's been a lot of Big 12 schools," said Custer. "It's what I've always grown up watching and where I've dreamed about playing. That's where I see myself."
Stanford out of the Pac-12 might eventually be a factor in Custer's recruitment. He plans on taking an unofficial visit to Stanford this weekend.
"They have to wait a little bit (to offer) to make sure that you can make grades," said Custer. "They have to make sure that you get a good enough of a score to be successful there. They are very interested in me. They want me to do well on the SAT and ACT."
Custer is a heady young prospect whose stock will only get higher in the coming months. T.J. Otzelberger is serving as his primary recruiter for Iowa State, but Hoiberg's fingerprints are all over this one as well.
"He (Hoiberg) said that he likes athletes who get out and run and guys who can shoot the ball to play in his system. He thinks that I fit that perfectly, said Custer. "He thinks I'm a point guard who knows when to push it and when to slow it down. I can come off pick and rolls and make decisions. There's a lot of freedom in his offense and he thinks that'd be perfect for me."
Custer plays AAU ball for the Mo-Kan elite. We'll keep you updated on any developments here at CycloneFanatic.com.

The struggle for economic quality and advancement is "a human issue" and doesn't just pertain to one specific group, but due to historical disgusting "restraining types" of laws and policies, and horrible practices done to Black Americans the group has the on-going issue of having "as a group" drastic economic issues. The upper to middle class Blacks may be safer than their lower economic counterparts, but as a whole Blacks are largely below in economic prosperity than their White peers due to others' desire of holding control and power.
Throughout history, time after time Black Americans have been historically met with heavy resistance and opposition when it comes to employment and housing, and let that sink in that your families were seen as too disgusting to work and live by people from another group. Let it sink in that the types of jobs that were available to Black Americans during the early 20th century or during World War II were deplorable, and yet you still had many success stories of Blacks making a living in America. You shouldn't ponder about today's Black person, but instead what today's Black person's road has been due to historical traumas put on their older generations- and because of that you as a Black person have quite the climb now don't you? The difficult climb to economic building or comfort isn't out the picture just because of which class the Black person is in. The very threat of financial instability is too a part of the Black upper-middle and upper class, because with one move the fortune is in jeopardy- so these groups especially feel the pressures of maintaining.
But regardless of how much triumph has occurred, the road to narrowing the massive economic gap inequality between Black and White seems to be the never-ending battle due to historical occurrences, and barriers in workplaces, schools, communities and neighborhoods. We'll be long dead and gone before it's well balanced, but we can at least proceed with progress right? Just like some slow moving turtles, the groups will eventually find themselves on an even playing field, but we'll be dead and miss that society.
Speaking of a society, the term "Black middle-class" has an ambiguous definition, and refers to professionals, the college educated, income, standard of living, position in the community, family history, and so forth. But what does all of this mean besides you can earn a Bachelor's degree and be considered middle-class within the Black community? What does this really mean when even the upper Black class can be crushed by one sensitive move? It means absolutely nothing. It means the Black middle class is or seemed to be tenuous or vague that faces the constant threat of decreased mobility- because all it takes is just that one weak link in the family to bring down the whole ship after your family had once created economic stability.
What does good financial stability mean when Black children from middle to upper-middle class families have experienced a generational decrease in income- and that's a drastic contrast to the traditional American expectation that each succeeding generation will do better. Here's one serious piece of information to keep in mind, only 31 percent of middle-class Black children have greater family earnings compared to their White counterparts whom are at 68 percent. Keep that in mind while you surely aren't burning that mid-night oil to success, educational advancement, and knowledge. Wrap your brain around that.
Not only do Black children gain less in comparison than their White counterparts, but Black households build wealth slower than White family households. Brandeis University researchers concluded that there were two reasons for such a big gap, one was housing and the other was family income. Brandeis University Institute on Assets and Social Policy concluded that, among households whose wealth grew over a certain period, the number of years owning a home accounted for nearly 30 percent of the difference in the relative growth in wealth between Black and White families. Family income played a major role too, it accounting for another 20 percent of the widening the gap in wealth. But these are the more obvious disadvantages for generations and generations of laws, policies, and harsh prejudice and racist practices done to Blacks in America. Other factors include inheritances, college education, and unemployment. Altogether, these five factors accounted for 65 percent of the increasing wealth gap.
Really what the research is finding is what has been obvious for many years, the findings or research unveil barriers in schools, workplaces, and communities- rather than personal attributes and cultural factors, could be making it harder for Blacks to accumulate wealth than Whites over time. Wealth, the sum of foundational assets like stocks and bank and retirement accounts, homes, cars (long-term), minus debt, is a key gauge of economic well-being- but especially vital when these things are passed on to future generations.
And in 2006 the "housing bubble" debacle and the recession from late 2007 to mid-2009 greatly helped push the wealth gap between Blacks and Whites to unprecedented levels. Just in 1984, the median net worth of White families (the level at which 50% had less wealth and 50% had more) was $90,851 compared with just $5,781 for Black families, which is a gap of $85,070 just in case you wondered. But by the year 2009, this gap had ballooned to $236,500.
It's not just about home ownership, but that White families, research has suggested, buy homes and start acquiring equity on average eight years earlier than Black families- largely because Whites can lean on their own families for help with down payments. Due to less access to credit, lower incomes, and government policies, it's said, the homeownership rate for White families is 28.4% higher than for Black families.
Do you think, as a Black person, you'll be alright if you just get that job promotion? For your sake, you better hope not. It may be an accomplishment but no where near enough, with job promotions and pay increases you're still screwed- with job promotions and pay increases it still doesn't seem to be a great pay off for Blacks like the way it does for Whites. The reason for this piece of injustice is "every dollar increase in average income over the 25-year study period added $5.19 wealth for White households, while the same income gain only added 69 cents for the wealth for African American households," Director of the Institute on Assets and Policy, Thomas Shapiro found.
Meanwhile, the enormous difference related to inheritances, college education, and unemployment continue to play a huge role in the 'racial wealth gap' in America. Whites are five times more likely to inherit, while 80% of Black students graduate with debt compared at 64% for their White peers. With Blacks already being in a sensitive position, one event can negatively alter their monies and wealth easier than Whites- like in the depression which disproportionately had an awful effect on Blacks. Researchers say, "half the collective wealth of African American families was stripped away during the Great Recession due to the dominant role of home-equity in their wealth portfolios and the prevalence of predatory high-risk loans in communities of color." You "as a colored person" in America are more than twice as likely to lose your home. Take those thoughts with you to bed.

I would like to share some advice with all drivers that I received from a company safety guy some years back. This was a 400 truck company out of Oklahoma and the safety guy was a retired Oklahoma State trooper.
During orientation, he gave the class a bit of advice, not the normal stuff, but something you wouldn't expect to hear from safety.
He gave a story of a flatbedder traveling down a 2 lane highway in a rural area with light traffic doing legal speed. The driver was experienced and rested and completely legal. As he approached a narrow bridge about 200 feet long, a U-Haul van was approaching the same bridge, which was wide enough to accomadate both vehicles, but was a bit narrower than the main road.
Well, it seems the U-haul driver was not used to a larger vehicle and thought he needed more space to clear the bridge. He actually didn't, but being only used to his car, he took more road than needed, and was over the yellow line just enough to make the flatbedder try to avoid sideswiping and in doing so, the flatbedder avoided the U-Haul, but sideswiped his truck on the passenger side against the guardrail.
The flatbedder pulled over to assess his damage, but, guess what, the U-Haul kept going. He probably wasn't even aware what had happened and the flatbedder had to deal with the damage.
The safety guy told us in that situation, you should collide with the other vehicle so he has to stop and in that situation, (The U-Haul), would have been made to pay for the damage to the flatbedder. He said the same applies if trying to avoid a 4 wheeler stopping in front of you without warning. Run into him and do not attempt to avoid, because you will run into the ditch and/or jacknife and the 4 wheeler drives merrily on his way. Since he caused the accident, he needs to be involved. Otherwise, he's gone and you are in the ditch standing there scratching your head.
Then on the other hand, Our natural reaction is to swerve to avoid hitting. So you would have to make a quick decision in about one tenth of a second. That is if this situation ever happens to you. Food for thought. Jimmy

Cool when it counts
KAPAAU — Honokaa coach Wesley Fujimoto can't figure it out.
Time and time again, he sees the Dragons play their worst softball after being squarely in control of games. On the other side of the coin, they play their best with their backs against the wall.
"I guess they like the pressure," Fujimoto said after Honokaa beat Kohala 12-8 in eight innings in a Big Island Interscholastic Federation contest Friday at Kamehameha Park.
Honokaa scored four runs in the top of the eighth, with Kaitlin Agustin's RBI single plating Kayla Kalauli with the go-ahead run. On the same plate, Kayla Requelman scored on an error, and Precious Palea-Enos later added an RBI single.
Palea-Enos finished 3-for-5 with two RBIs.
"To get two people in like that after a tie game, it felt good," Agustin said.
Honokaa (0-1 in the BIIF, 3-1 overall) led 7-6 going into the bottom of the seventh, but Kohala (0-1, 1-3) sent the contest to extra innings when Kiana Alejandro-Cazimero scored from third base on a wild pitch from Agustin, a junior who started and went 6 1/3 innings.
With runners on second and third and one out, Kalauli relieved Agustin, and the sophomore got Ashlyn Van Zandt on a foul-out to the catcher and Tiani Luga on a groundout to short to end the threat.
An inning earlier, Agustin wiggled out of similar jam, loading the bases with nobody out. But she got Tomiko Coito on a line drive to shortstop, Briana Harrison on a pop-out to short and Kyrah Sol on a flyout to center.
"We had our chances,'' Cowgirls coach Terrence Alcoran said of his team, which also committed eight errors.
Agustin gave up eight runs — seven earned — on seven hits. She walked eight and struck out five.
Kalauli followed with 1 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing one hit and one walk to earn the win.
Honokaa gave Agustin plenty of run support early, with the Dragons taking advantage of two errors in the fourth inning to score four runs and take a 7-3 lead.
Allie Shiraki highlighted the inning with a two-run single, and Requelman added a run-scoring single.
However, Kohala tied the contest with a four-run fifth, with Kiana Alejandro-Cazimero capping the rally with a two-out, two-run single.
"They didn't give up,'' Alcoran said.
Alejandro-Cazimero finished 2-for-4, Van Zandt had an RBI double, and Ryah Manning contributed a run-scoring single.
Van Zandt, a sophomore, took the loss. In 7 1/3 innings she gave up 12 runs — eight earned — on 10 hits, striking out six and walking nine.
Honokaa 003 400 1 4 — 12 10 1
Kohala 201 040 1 0 — 8 9 8
c Kamehameha 7, Waiakea 6: At Keaau, Kekai Wong Yuen had three hits and Mykala Tokunaga provided the pitching to lift the private-school Warriors (1-0 BIIF, 3-1 overall) over the visitors.
Tokunaga and Jaylen Shiroma each added two hits for the hosts. Brandee Maximo led Waiakea (0-0, 1-2) with three hits, and Taylor Nishimura had two.
Tokunaga picked up the win. Alexis Anzai took the loss.
c Hilo 18, Pahoa 3: Shalyn Guthier went 2-for-3, and Jordyn Breitbarth hit an RBI double for Hilo (1-0 in BIIF, 5-0 overall).
Aliese Kaneshiro pitched three innings for the win at Hilo.
Pahoa fell to 0-1 in BIIF play, 0-4 overall.
Pahoa 000 03 — 3 1 3
Hilo 663 3x — 18 4 4
c Konawaena 17, Hawaii Prep 13: Bethany Batangan went 3-for-5 with a double at the plate and picked up the win in the circle for the Wildcats, who scored 13 unanswered runs after falling behind 8-2.
Batangan pitched into the sixth inning before Shyla Victor came on in relief and finished up for Konawaena (1-0 in the BIIF, 3-1 overall). The pitchers combined to walk 12 batters.
Kawena Lim-Samura, who went the distance for Ka Makani (0-1, 0-5), took the loss. She allowed eight hits, striking out five batters and walking 13.
Camille Kiyota (2-for-4) blasted a three-run homer in the second inning for HPA, which also took advantage of five walks and an error in the frame.
Alexa Meyer went 2-for-5 with an RBI.
Konawaena 116 124 2 — 17 6 2
Hawaii Prep 080 003 2 — 13 8 6

March 20, 2012–Republicans today unveiled their budget plan, which laid out a vision of this country's economic future in stark contrast to the budget proposed by President Obama. Representative Paul Ryan, chairman of the House Budget Committee and chief architect of the GOP plan, said, "This is about putting an end to empty promises from a bankrupt government."
Ryan's blueprint would balance the federal budget in two years by sharply reducing taxes and eliminating almost all entitlement programs and completely doing away with the social safety net. In addition to creating just two tax brackets, the plan would reduce the number of classes in America to two, the one percent and everyone else.
As Ryan explained, "Under this plan, if you lose your job and have your house foreclosed, the government isn't going to bail you out any more." Instead, any American who can no longer compete in the nation's economy will become the property of a millionaire. "This budget will create tens of millions of new jobs at no cost to the government, millions of new unpaid factory workers, field hands and fast food servers. This country did pretty well when the Founding Fathers, in their infinite wisdom, owned slaves. Ending that system has proved to be a colossal mistake," the Wisconsin Republican continued. "This budget lays out a blueprint for returning this country to the greatness the signers of the Declaration of Independence envisioned."
Wall Street closed sharply higher on expectations of strong demand for domestically produced leg irons, whips and stockades, and in anticipation of a rebounding housing market, with tens of millions of new housing units for slaves being built if the Ryan budget is enacted.

The Melissa & Doug Grocery Store and Lemonade Stand ($92) is a toy that every boy and girl would cherish! This wooden play center performs double duty; your little tikes can run a store or sell lemonade all with the same toy. This toy includes portable plastic bins for pretend shopping or storage. Think of how much fun will be had as your wee ones sell lemonade to you and your neighbors.
Cute idea but at 10 cents a glass that poor girl is going to have to spend half her childhood trying to make a profit off of her $92 lemonade stand purchase.

According to Wednesday's Fox 7 News, the Round Rock, Texas, police officers who were involving in the fatal shooting of a man's Rottweiler, have been cleared of any wrong-doing.
Following an investigation by the Round Rock Police, the shooting of Russell Lane's eight-year-old Rottweiler, "Bullet," was deemed "justified," and the officers were said to have followed protocol.
Bullet was shot in late May inside of his owner's home - the family's security alarm had gone off and the officers responded. A home surveillance camera captures the three officers opening the front door and entering the house - the actual shooting of Bullet was not recorded.
Lane is upset with the department's findings - he told Fox 7:
Accountability starts with admitting that you've done something wrong. If they aren't willing to do that, then I'm going to let federal court decide that because I feel it did violate my civil rights. They say that a dog is property in the state of Texas, you can't deprive me of my property without due recourse,"
The officers who were involved in the shooting have stated that Bullet was growling at them before they fired the seven shots which killed him.

I visited Parismina for the first time in 2013 with three students from Fleming College and my good friend Mario. Our intention was to explore what the village had to offer and learn about the conservation organization Asociacion Salvemos las Tortugas de Parismina (ASTOP). We stayed in the homes of local families that were part of a homestay system developed as part of the conservation efforts of ASTOP. Volunteers who stay in homestays pay families directly for the accomodations and meals which provides a direct source of income for local families. Kristina Elliott, a student enrolled in the Applied and Community-Based Research (ACBR) Program at Fleming College, worked with the homestay families in 2014 to identify some barriers and priorities for the continued development of the homestay system. On April 25th, I will return to Parismina with eight Ecosystem Management (EM) students, the EM Program Coordinator, and one ACBR student. We'll be posting blogs and photos of our experience. For now, watch this video to familiarize yourself Parismina and some of the work we do while in the village.

Yahoo! Search coming to AT&T handsets
Yahoo has apparently settled a deal with US AT&T to provide local search information to customers through its Yahoo oneSearch widget.
When it launches, AT&T will offer a collection of Yahoo's oneSearch mobile Web services such as links to local news, financial information, weather, Flickr photos and search through its mobile Internet portal.
This will all happen directly on a user's phone. IDC wireless analyst Scott Ellison said the following in a statement from Yahoo:
"This partnership with AT&T will enable Yahoo to reach tens of millions of mobile Internet users in the United States and provide advertisers with reach and scale."
The usage of Yahoo's oneSearch services will be absolutely free of charge to the customers, but the carrier's data rates will apply.

The largest retail pharmacy chain in the U.S., Walgreen (NASDAQ:WBA) has outperformed the S&P 500 by a wide margin over the past twelve months. The stock popped in February following the announcement of a 3.7% year over year rise in January sales.
The good times kept rolling when the company released its first quarter results; sales reached a record high $19.6 billion for a gain of 5.1% year over year, total sales in comparable stores rose 4.3%. Let's take a look at what's driving this impressive growth, and see if it can continue.
Promoting synergy
With over 8,000 locations in the U.S., there's only so much more room to grow domestically. Not quite two years ago Walgreen expanded its international presence with a 45% stake in Alliance Boots. The pharmacy chain is the largest throughout the EU with over 3,000 stores, and it is rapidly expanding into the Chinese market. So far, the partnership is shaping up to be as profitable as hoped.
Acquisition-related synergies are growing quickly. During the twelve months ending August 31, 2013, net synergies reached $154 million. In just the first half of fiscal 2014, that figure exploded to a whopping $236 million .
At the outset of the merger, management forecasted annual synergies of roughly $1 billion annually within four years. So far the company is on pace to blast through that target. Less than two years following the deal, Walgreen's twelve-month EBITDA margin is sitting on a 10-year high. If the cost cutting benefits of the merger continue to grow, they will go a long way toward expanding the company's bottom line.
Tax inversion
If some of Walgreen's investors have their way, benefits of the merger will go far beyond combining talent and eliminating redundancies. Recently a group of shareholders representing about 5% of the company lobbied management to relocate its headquarters and avoid one of the world's highest corporate tax rates.
Walgreen's effective tax rate was 34.9% in the last quarter. Alliance Boots pays roughly 20%. Relocating outside of the US won't help Walgreen win any popularity contests, but it would add a great deal to the company's bottom line.
Positive feedback loop
Just over a year ago Walgreen and Alliance Boots entered a 10-year pharmaceutical distribution agreement with AmerisourceBergen (NYSE: ABC). Now the distributor can leverage the immense weight of its partners to source branded and generic products. Those savings pass through to Walgreen as AmerisourceBergen now distributes all of its branded drugs and soon all its generics.
With those lower priced drugs, Walgreen can keep the nearly 80 million active members in its loyalty program happy while remaining profitable. As its customer base grows, AmerisourceBergen can hopefully negotiate progressively better deals with pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Just one year into the agreement, Walgreen's gross margin hasn't reflected the benefits. If the company uses its advantage to lure customers away from competitors with lower prices, you might not see the margin expansion in years ahead either. Keep your eyes open for shrinking margins at smaller competitors like Rite Aid going forward.
Not a follower
While Walgreen did an excellent job of expanding through the Alliance Boots deal, it missed a great chance for gaining some free publicity. CVS Caremark was bathed in positive mentions for a week after announcing it will stop selling tobacco later this year. While CVS is likely to lose $2 billion in annual sales from tobacco, it could make up the difference with its smoking cessation program. Walgreen, on the other hand, might continue selling tobacco products in its stores, but it will begin helping customers to quit smoking online. In a partnership with GlaxoSmithKline's Consumer Healthcare unit, Walgreen launched the Sponsorship to Quit program. As you can imagine, the program offers recommendations for Glaxo's smoking cessation products, available for purchase at Walgreen.
A Fool looks ahead
There's a lot for long-term growth investors to like about Walgreen. The international expansion opportunities Alliance Boots provides are just what it needs to maintain earnings growth for years to come. Lower taxes from a relocation could provide an additional boost, but fear of political backlash could also prevent it from happening any time soon.
Looking further ahead, the competitive advantage created through collaboration with Alliance Boots and AmerisourceBergen could make this a stock to hold onto for the long term.
Here are 6 more stock picks poised for incredible growth
They said it couldn't be done. But David Gardner has proved them wrong time, and time, and time again with stock returns like 926%, 2,239%, and 4,371%.

LA's Broad Museum Unveils Porous, Light-Filled Gallery
Start Slideshow
- Broad Musuem RenderingsFor weeks now, we've been anticipating the unveiling of the new Los Angeles Broad Art Foundation to be located right across the street from Frank Gehry's famed Walt Disney Concert Hall. Eli Broad's new museum, designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, will serve as both an archive as well as gallery space for the 2,000 some odd pieces that make up the Broad Collection. The exterior is characterized by a porous concrete screen, nicknamed the "Veil", which will help draw daylight in from all sides of the structure as well as the ceiling.1
- Broad Musuem RenderingsThe Broad Art Foundation will serve as a repository for the Broad's vast collection of contemporary art work as well as a lending center.2
- Broad Musuem RenderingsThree stories tall, with parking underneath, the new 120,000 sq ft museum will include almost an acre of column free gallery space, in addition to a lecture hall, multimedia gallery, lobby, gift shop, espresso bar, and archive and storage space.3
- Broad Museum RenderingsNicknamed "The Vault and The Veil", the LA museum is characterized by its large archival space covered in a porous veil-like exterior.4
- Broad Museum RenderingsThe entire second floor serves as the archive vault, which unlike most museums, is always in view rather than relegated to the basement.5
- Broad Musuem RenderingsThe arched and carved ceiling of the lobby serves as the floor for the vault, and the ceiling is the floor of the gallery space.6
- Broad Musuem RenderingsThe third floor provides a large and column free gallery space that makes use of daylighting that pours through the airy exoskeleton as well as skylights.7
- Broad Musuem RenderingsThis large space is totally flexible according to curatorial needs and has 24-foot high ceilings. The "Veil" is lifted at the corners of the building at street level, welcoming visitors inside the lobby and espresso bar.8
- Broad Musuem RenderingsAlthough not incredibly impressive on the sustainable architecture front, The Broad will certainly be an impressive piece of architecture.9
- Broad Musuem RenderingsConstruction of the three-story underground parking garage is expected to begin this spring with completion of the entire museum by 2013.10
- Broad Musuem LocationSome criticism is already swirling about the design and especially regarding the access from the parking garage into the museum. However, there could still be time for amendments before construction begins in earnest and we hope a more energy efficient and sustainable scheme emerges.11
- Broad Musuem Location DetailThe new museum is located on Grand Avenue across from the Walt Disney Concert Hall and adjacent to a new metro station and landscaped park area.12

Milton Berle once said that laughter is an instant vacation. So for those needing to escape, look no further than the Improv at Harrah's, where you are guaranteed a temporary getaway.
Budd Friedman founded the Improv in New York City in 1963, and it was only a matter of time before the club became one of the top showcases for up-and-coming comedic talent. Soon after, franchises of the famed comedy club started budding up all over the country, boasting a roster of superstars such as Jerry Seinfeld and Drew Carey. The Improv at Harrah's, one of more than a dozen franchises of the club, opened in Las Vegas in 1995, and has been keeping audiences smiling ever since. With a lineup of three comedians rotating weekly, the Improv brings top-name talent to the intimate theater.
With a brick backdrop revealing handwritten jokes on the walls, the showroom bears photos of top comedians who have made it to stardom by way of the Improv, dubbed "America's Original Comedy Showcase," including Kevin Nealon and Richard Lewis. And there's no doubt that the comedians featured on the Las Vegas stage are at the top of their game.
Mark Twain said that the human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter. At the Improv at Harrah's, there's no shortage of laughter, as comedians bring out their best arsenal of jokes all in the name of comedy.

As kids gets older, they become more sensitive about their differences, in this case, their food intolerance(s). They just want to eat what everyone else is eating! Especially when it comes to birthday parties and other social gatherings.
Not too much to ask, is it? Unfortunately this can get a little tricky.
In order to make my kids feel a little better about being the only one eating a gluten-free cupcake at a birthday party, I've decided to get a little more creative. If they're at a party, I want to make sure they feel really good about what they're eating.
Thus, the Fudgeeo Cupcake was born.
Do you remember Fudgeeo Cookies ? Definitely one of my favorite childhood treats. Talk about a chocolate and sugar overload!
I've combined three recipes into one fabulous Fudgeeo Cupcake. I'm pretty sure you and your kids will be happy about these. In fact, these Fudgeeo Cupcakes were the talk of the latest birthday party. Everyone wanted one!
Step One: Make Oreo Cookies
Gluten-Free and Vegan Oreo Cookies
Yield: 16 Oreos
- 1/2 cup coconut oil, room temperature (not liquid)
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 14 drops (1/4 teaspoon) NuNaturals Alcohol Free Stevia (we used Vanilla)
- 1 tablespoon ground chia combined with 1/2 cup water
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 tablespoon psyllium seed husks
- 1 cup teff flour , plus a little extra for rolling
- 1/3 cup raw cacao powder (cocoa powder works too)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment.
2. Cream coconut oil, coconut sugar, and stevia in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
3. Stir in ground chia and water mixture, vanilla, and psyllium seed husks.
4. Combine until all ingredients are fully mixed.
5. In a small bowl, whisk the teff flour, cacao, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt.
6. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir until combined.
7. Move dough to a lightly floured surface (I use extra teff flour for rolling) and roll out until about 1/2 centimeter thick (or to desired thickness).
8. Using a 2 inch round cookie cutter , cut into shapes and place on tray.
9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, longer if you want them really crunchy. Just be sure to check on them so they don't burn.
10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Repeat with remaining dough, you may need to refrigerate dough if it gets too soft to work with.
12.Once cookies are completely cool, cut each cookie in half and frost with Fudgey Chocolate Frosting (see Step Three) or desired frosting. Top with another cookie half and set aside.
Step Two: Make Chocolate Cupcakes
Chocolate Cupcakes
Yield: 10 cupcakes
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup dairy-free milk (I used coconut milk – this one)
- ¼ cup tapioca flour or arrowroot flour
- 1 cup teff flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon psyllium seed husks
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder (I used raw cacao)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (I use coconut sugar)
- ½ cup coconut oil, liquefied
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake pan with cupcake papers (or lightly oil).
2. Combine the apple cider vinegar with the coconut milk and dairy-free milk in a large bowl. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to create a "buttermilk".
3. In a medium sized bowl, sift together the starch, teff flour, baking powder, baking soda, psyllium seed husks, sea salt, and cocoa powder.
4. Add vanilla, sugar and coconut oil to your "buttermilk" mixture and stir until well combined. Stir in dry ingredients and mix well.
5. Spoon batter into prepared cupcake pan and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until tops bounce back.
6. Remove cupcakes cake from oven and let cool for fifteen minutes. Move to a wire cooling rack and let cool completely.
7. Frost with Fudgey Chocolate Frosting (recipe below) or desired frosting.
Step Three: Make Fudgey Frosting
Fudgey Chocolate Frosting
- 2 sticks Earth Balance Buttery Sticks, room temperature
- 2/3 cup coconut oil, room temperature
- 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon raw cacao
- 1 cup icing sugar (I grind my own using cane sugar or coconut sugar)
- pinch sea salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1-2 tablespoons coconut milk, if needed
1. Whip Earth Balance and coconut oil in the bowl of a mixer until well combined.
2. Sift in raw cacao, icing sugar and sea salt. Mix until all ingredients are incorporated.
3. Add vanilla and coconut milk, if needed. Mix until well combined.
4. Use to frost cupcakes and Fudgeeo cookies. I used a ziploc bag snipped in the corner to frost my cupcakes and a frosting knife for the cookies.
5. Place one cookie on each cupcake.
Trying to cut back on refined sugar? Try Ricki's chocolate "buttercream" frosting. I bet it would be amazing with this recipe.
How do you survive birthday parties and other social gatherings?

Should you help your kids with homework?
By Rebecca Andrews, BrighterLife.ca
While you want your children to succeed in school, there's a fine line between guiding them in the right direction and doing their homework for them.
Janet Ricciardelli, principal of Harrison Public School in Toronto says, "Students naturally benefit from the continuing learning process at home, as homework provides a sense of structure and routine. Taking responsibility for their learning and adopting a disciplined approach to homework is something that students will carry with them through their years of schooling."
Teacher Lorna Costantini says it's natural for parents to want to help their children succeed and do well in school — especially in today's economy. However, too much help can hurt. "Children need to learn how to make mistakes, because if they don't know how to fail they won't understand how to move forward," she says. Therefore, make sure you let your children do their own homework and simply show them the right path by helping them find information resources without giving them too many answers.
ABC Life Literacy Canada is a non-profit organization on a mission to increase Canadians' literacy skills. "It's important to make learning part of daily life by showing your children that the learning process is fun, by including topics that interest them," says the organization's former communications manager, Nikki Luscombe. She suggests the following 10 tips for helping kids with homework:
- Develop a daily routine. Set aside a specific time each day/evening for homework.
- Provide a quiet, well-lit working area with basic school supplies.
- Understand your child's learning style. This will help you develop a personalized homework plan for your child.
- Help your kids break projects down into smaller steps. It's not uncommon for kids to get overwhelmed with big assignments. Work on pieces throughout the week and do the hard parts on the weekend.
- Talk with your child's teacher. Become aware of his or her method of teaching. Help your child by using familiar terms and examples.
- Don't save learning for the homework hour. Make it a part of daily life.
- Take a break. If your child gets frustrated or distracted with homework, allow a short break. If this frustration continues, talk with your child's teacher to determine if a tutor might be needed.
- Talk it over. To reinforce comprehension and memory skills, take 10 minutes to talk about the stories you've read together.
- Show your children that the skills they are learning relate to real life. If your child is learning math, for example, balance your cheque book together or have him or her count out change for you.
- Teach your children to be independent. Offer to help them with difficult homework challenges, but then let them complete the remainder on their own.
"Communication between home and school can make all the difference," says Ricciardelli. "Parents can help by providing a consistent time and place and setting clear expectations around homework in general."
Rodd Lucier is a teacher, father and blogger at The Clever Sheep. He says, "Homework is often seen by children as a penalty, such as when parents say their child can't watch TV or attend soccer practice unless homework is completed." Instead, he suggests making sure kids understand the rewards of doing homework — better understanding and better grades, for example. He also believes learning should happen everywhere. For example, ask your child to help with simple arithmetic or reading labels at the grocery store. And he recommends "modeling what learning is" by being seen to read newspapers and books, and by asking questions yourself.
Elizabeth Sharp of Pathways to Education, founded in 2001 to help children from disadvantaged neighbourhoods stay in school, suggests busy parents connect their children to community-based tutoring programs or homework clubs to supplement the help they receive at home and to give them the extra academic support of working alongside their peers. Additionally, she recommends encouraging your children by praising their efforts, rather than focusing completely on the grades they achieve.

A fire claimed the home of a Greensboro woman Sept. 16.
Greensboro volunteer firefighters were called to a mobile home located at 660 Lonnie Clark Rd. in Greensboro at 1:36 p.m. The home was quickly engulfed in flames, and the fire appeared to have started in the kitchen, according to the incident report.
Bertha Daniels, who had lived in the home, said she left the house at approximately 10 a.m. that morning, and had not cooked or noticed any electrical problems.
Walter Lowe, 26, of Quincy, was killed Sept. 15 at Quincy Joist where he had been employed since 2007 as a painter on the girder and longspan line.
According to a report released by the Quincy Police Department, Lowe was loading a large stack of steel beams onto a flatbed trailer when the beams became loose. While the report stated that no one witnessed the accident, it was indicated that one of the beams fell down and hit Lowe in the mid-section of his body, pushing him against a brick wall behind the loading area.
According to reports from the Quincy Police Department, there have been 24 reported robberies in Quincy since Aug. 1.
On Sept. 16 at 11 p.m., an employee at Kelly's Jr. No. 9 on West Jefferson Street in Quincy walked up to the front door to lock it. At the same time, a man appeared on the other side of the door, pointing a pearl-handled revolver at the clerk and ordering him to not lock the door. The clerk opened the door and two men entered the store and grabbed the cash register. The man with the gun said he needed more money and ordered the clerk to open the safe.
The only way to reduce infant mortality, according to Gadsden County Health Department Administrator Marlon Hunter, is for all agencies that address quality of life issues to come together to work for the common goal.
Hunter was addressing representatives from several agencies that focus on health during the first meeting of the Gadsden Community Health Action Team Sept. 15. The team will ultimately become the Gadsden County Health Coalition, according to Hunter.
The Anchor Club of Robert F. Munroe Day School held a memorial service around the flagpole Sept. 11.
Club president Erin Sampson, daughter of Joel and Whitney Sampson, welcomed the student body and special guests, reminding everyone of the importance of remembering those who lost their lives on that day 8 years ago.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced Sunday that the nation's first round of Swine Flu shots could begin as early as the first week of October.
Sebelius said she "feels sure" the vaccine will be made available early enough to "beat the peak" of the expected flu season, and early doses are still expected to be prioritized for medical first responders, pregnant women and other high-risk groups.
Citizens continue to call the Gadsden County Sheriff's Office with tips on neighbors who are suspected to be growing or selling drugs. Last week was no exception when tips led narcotics and vice officers to the home of Randy Rowe on Smithtown Road, about 12 miles west of Quincy, near Chattahoochee.
Investigators arrested Rowe at home on Sept. 1 after finding marijuana growing a few feet from his home, according to GCSO Lt. Jim Corder.
The Gadsden County Board of Commissioners held the first of two public hearings Monday night but it was unclear whether the meeting had been properly advertised as a public hearing.
County Administrator Johnny Williams said he thought the meeting was advertised but couldn't be sure because Betty Miller, the administrative assistant who usually places ads, is out of the office on sick leave. However, the meeting continued with five items on the agenda for discussion.
Those items added another $85,000 to the budget. The money will come from reserves which total $450,000.
The State Fire Marshal's Office arrested 26-year-old Christopher T. Knight of Midway and charged him with five counts of attempted murder and two counts of arson of a dwelling Monday.
The charges stem from fires set Sept. 9 and 10. He is in the Leon County Jail, pending return to Gadsden County.
Millie Smith, United Way of the Big Bend's campaign manager for Gadsden County, said the people of Gadsden County came through this year with contributions. Donations totaling $165,400.44 were raised from Gadsden County contributors this year and that amount was divided among 31 agencies which offer a myriad of services to the citizens of the county.

It was to correct common misconceptions about his thought that Sartre accepted an invitation to speak on October 29, 1945, at the Club Maintenant in Paris. The unstated objective of his lecture ("Existentialism Is a Humanism") was to expound his philosophy as a form of "existentialism," a term much bandied about at the time. Sartre asserted that existentialism was essentially a doctrine for philosophers, though, ironically, he was about to make it accessible to a general audience. The published text of his lecture quickly became one of the bibles of existentialism and made Sartre an international celebrity. The idea of freedom occupies the center of Sartre's doctrine. Man, born into an empty, godless universe, is nothing to begin with. He creates his essencehis self, his beingthrough the choices he freely makes ("existence precedes essence"). Were it not for the contingency of his death, he would never end. Choosing to be this or that is to affirm the value of what we choose. In choosing, therefore, we commit not only ourselves but all of mankind. This edition ofExistentialism Is a Humanismis a translation of the 1996 French edition, which includes Arlette Elkaim-Sartre's introduction and a Q&A with Sartre about his lecture. Paired with "Existentialism Is a Humanism" is another seminal Sartre text, his commentary on Camus'sThe Stranger. In her foreword, intended for an American audience, acclaimed Sartre biographer Annie Cohen-Solal offers an assessment of both works.
Author Biography
Philosopher, playwright, and novelist Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980) was the most dominant European intellectual for the three decades following World War II. In 1964, he was awarded but declined the Nobel Prize in Literature. Annie Cohen-Solal is the author of the acclaimed Sartre: A Life, an international best-seller that has been translated into sixteen languages.

If you missed my past columns on Divine Mercy Sunday, think of today's column as a very brief makeup session. I'm going to cover the basics of the holy day, and then its up to you to follow up on it and learn more so you'll be prepared when it rolls around next year.
Divine Mercy Sunday is a feast day that is celebrated universally in the Catholic Church, as well as by some Anglicans. It falls the Sunday after Easter, which is also known as St. Thomas Sunday. Although Catholics have observed Divine Mercy Sunday since 1935, it wasn't officially proclaimed a universal feast day of the church until 2000, when Pope John Paul II proclaimed it as such. Because of John Paul II was so instrumental in bringing Divine Mercy Sunday to the attention of Catholics worldwide, the Vatican chose to have him beautified on that day in 2011, and sainted on that day in 2014.
Still, the idea of Divine Mercy Sunday was not "invented" by the Pope or the Vatican, but rather it came from a Polish nun named Sister Faustina Kowalska, who is now a saint in her own right. In turn, she said she reserved divine inspiration from Jesus Christ himself, who asked her to convince the Catholic Church to institute a new feast day. Sister Faustina wrote down these encounters in her diary, and it came to the attention of Pope Pius XI.
Today, Divine Mercy Sunday is celebrated at 3pm, the Sunday after Easter, in Catholic Church worldwide. In addition the prayer service itself, there are many individual prayers that are considered to have special merit if they are said on Divine Mercy Sunday. One major example is the faithful who recite "Merciful Jesus, I Trust in you" before the Divine Mercy image. Catholic teaching holds that they will obtain a plenary indulgence that day. On Divine Mercy Sunday, Jesus' heart is said to be open for the whole world and will answer specific prayers that are asked of Him on that day.
That's a very brief overview of why we have Divine Mercy Sunday, and what it means for Catholics. If you already know about this information, great! If not, now you have something to chew on for next year.

There is a report on CBSsports.com this morning by Dennis Dodd posing the question:
Has college football peaked?
I certainly hope not but clearly, the sport cannot continue hope to grow at the rate that it has grown over the past decade. The report cites several "issues" facing college football. One of them is that students stay home from games when it is raining – not because they are smart enough to come in out of the rain – because one cannot text/tweet in the rain. If that observation is correct, that has serious implications for college football and all spectator sports.
If a fan chooses to be in a place where texting/tweeting is possible over being at a game in the rain, that means the game is a relatively unimportant event in their view. After all, texting/tweeting can be done just about every waking hour; if a football game is not sufficiently interesting to have a fan forego something he/she can do about 100 hours a week, then indeed college football may have peaked.
The report says that there were empty seats at the Alabama/Auburn game this year. Students bought the tickets and then stayed away. If that game is insufficient to fill the house, then indeed, college football may have peaked.
Personally, I think that college football is starting to suffer from the same thing that ails college basketball. There is too much of it on TV; even dedicated football fans are sated; moreover, there is more to come as new sports networks come into existence and need "content" to fill up 168 hours a week.
The report on CBSsports.com mentions the number of bowl games and the "fatigue factor" that sets in as one contemplates a game between a pair of 6-6 teams. If you have been a reader here for a while, you know that I pay no attention at all to such games and I do like college football a lot.
This is a story that is worth reading in its entirety.
Another report this morning says that Jets' owner Woody Johnson told GM candidates that the Tim Tebow trade last year was "forced on him". Really? He owns the team; if he says no trade, then there is no trade. If one of his underlings can force him to do something that he does not want to do or thinks is deleterious to the organization – sort of the position he would like to take now – one has to ask how effective a leader he must be. By the way, now that he has said that, why is Tim Tebow still on the roster? If I am to believe Johnson's recent statements, he now knows that the trade was a disaster and he was "forced into" doing something bad for the team.
Memo to Woody Johnson: OK, now that you have recognized those "facts", the beginnings of the solution to the problem are pretty obvious and after all, you are the owner of the team with final say on who the team has on its payroll.
Earlier this month, Jake Lamotta former boxing champion was married for the seventh time. La Motta is 90 years old; his wife is 60 years old. When a 90-year old person marries for the seventh time, that has to be a triumph of expectation over experience, no?
According to reports, Alex Rodriguez has successful and uneventful hip surgery last week. Clearly, that is good news. However, the timing of the surgery seems strange to me. I recall the diagnosis that A-Rod would need this surgery coming soon after the World Series had concluded; that would put it in the mid-November timeframe. The rehab period for the surgery is said to be 5-7 months. So, how come the delay until January?
An attorney in Florida is suing the San Antonio Spurs under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act over the time when the Spurs sent four players home early from a road trip and did not have them play in Miami against the Heat. The complaint argues that this attorney paid premium prices for the Spurs' game since they are a top-tier team and that he did not get to see the real Spurs' team since the stars were not there. I read a report that said the definition of an "unfair and deceptive practice" in that Florida law is:
"…one that offends established public policy and is immoral, unethical, oppressive, unscrupulous or substantially injurious to consumers."
One can agree with the Spurs' decision not to play those four players or not, but I have a difficult time seeing how that decision meets any of those criteria. Again, I am not an attorney, but it would seem to me that the fact that this guy had to pay a premium price for his ticket to that game is a beef he has with the Miami Heat and not with the San Antonio Spurs. It was the Heat who created the multi-level pricing scheme for tickets that he bought into not the Spurs.
It will be interesting to see how the NBA itself becomes involved in this case. Recall that David Stern fined the Spurs $250K for resting those four players in that game. It would be very interesting to have David Stern under oath and to hear his comments about this situation…
Greg Cote of the Miami Herald had his own view of this lawsuit and channeled Carnac the Magnificent to express it:
"Answer: A suit filed in Miami-Dade claims the Spurs resting starters against the Heat in November violated Florida's fair trade practices law.
Question: What do you mean Americans are overly litigious?"
Finally, one more thought from Greg Cote:
"Parting thought: True story. Tennis star Novak Djokovic plans to open a restaurant whose specialty will be cheese made from donkey milk. The only thing I'd like less than to try that cheese is to milk that donkey."
But don't get me wrong, I love sports………
