TUCSON -- The UA/ASU Duel in the Desert this Saturday is sold out. This marks the third capacity football crowd for the year and assures a full stadium for Senior Day. Sixteen squadmen will be recognized during a pre-game ceremony.
Arizona's average home attendance for the season will exceed 55,449, the current average through six games, to check in at the No. 2 overall season average behind the 56,562 who attended games in the 1994 season.
Arizona's home games this year against Brigham Young and USC were the previous sellouts. The week started with more than 3,000 tickets for the contest and those were gone early Wednesday.
There might be a final chance to get tickets to the game, but only if Arizona State returns some of its allotment. If so, those would go on sale beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday at the stadium box office at East Sixth Street and North Cherry Avenue. There is no guarantee at this point that there will be any returns. Online sales have closed and will not be in effect for any returns.
The game is marked by the battle for the Territorial Cup, making the rivalry recognized by the NCAA as the nation's oldest trophy game. The two teams first squared off in 1899. The trophy will be awarded to the victors on the field after the game.
Thanksgiving Week Hours of Operation: The McKale Ticket Office is open Monday - Wednesday, Nov. 20-22, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. We will be closed Thursday, Nov. 23, and open Friday, Nov. 24 from noon to 4 p.m. On game day, Saturday, Nov. 25, the Arizona Stadium box office will be open beginning at 10 a.m. and close at halftime.

Welcome to Fall in New England! It is starting to get colder in Boston, but it is the perfect weather for nature walks and collecting all things Fall like leaves.
Take the children on a nature walk. You can use brown paper bags and let each child decorate the bags, then they can fill their bags with red, orange, and yellow leaves.
Once the nature walk is complete, why not do some of these leaf activities.
- Leaf prints: place the leaves under a sheet of paper and let the children choose some crayons to use. Ask them to press lightly and color so that they see the leaf image on the paper. Hang the leaf prints up.
- Check out this leaf counting game at Green Olives & Ham.
- For your "L" letter of the week, print out or draw a large letter "L", then let the children glue their leaves inside the letter "L".
- Read some of these books about leaves:

Left Wing Carbon Offset Crapola
Soooo, let me get this straight...the rich can buy offsets to allow them to pollute? Why don't they buy the offset, and then reduce their own emissions, thus creating an ACTUAL reduction in carbon emissions?
Why? Because the "elites" want you to think that their Gulfstream lifestyle is somehow beneficial to the planet.
This is bourgeois hypocrisy by the "Party of the Common Man" – the Democrats. If you can't figure this out for yourself, drink some more Kool-aid.
The liberal elites have always bought their way out of social responsibility. The forerunner of our Police were British constables and the nightwatch. It was a social requirement that you take your turn pulling duty as the constable and nightwatch...BUT...the rich could pay someone else to perform this duty for them.
In more modern times, liberals want the government to take more taxes from you in order to care for the poor. Again, liberals want to pay their way out of social responsibilities. "Take my taxes so I don't have to touch those lowly wretches!" Conservatives have repeatedly been shown to contribute more of their OWN money to charities and to donate more time.
I can just hear the elitist conversation in the Gore household now that we know about his carbonaceous misconduct:
GORE: Damn that Right Wing Noise Machine! They found our utility bills! We have to find a way to reduce our global warming footprint.
Tipper, how many staff do we have taking care of the mansion…errr.... I mean residence?
TIPPER: Oh, about 50, Al.
GORE: You know Tipper, some of our staff are not in this country legally. In fact, most are from Mexico.
TIPPER: Yes, Al, and…?
GORE: Well, they eat a lot of beans. If we deport about 30 of them, we can reduce noxious gas emissions by 60% here at the manshuuuu---err residence and count it as a carbon offset.
TIPPER: Al, you're a genius. I'll call Carlos (the Coyote who brought them here), and have him return them immediately.
GORE: That's my girl.
The Libs Lose Another Screed
Several valiant guardians lay dead, having done their duty by protecting those in their care.
Nancy Pelosi and Jack Murtha called a closed session of the Democrat Caucus to discuss what has become a piercing, burning stake in their collective hearts. Of course, the NSA, tasked with listening in on possible terrorist plots provided a secret recording of the meeting. The transcript follows:
Nancie (D-CA): "Fellow Democrats, the news from Afghanistan is frightening and a real threat to our future plans. Dick Cheney has been attacked in a war zone, which means...."
Jacques (D-PA): "ATTACK?!?!....uhhhh.....RUN AWAY!! RUN AWAY!!!....cut doughboys off.....duhhhhhh.......must stop war in Vietnam ...."
Sen Harry "Nuts" Reid (D-NV): "Yes, Nancie, we fully appreciate the ramifications...we can't call the Vice President a ChickenHawk anymore!!!"
(a collective groan is heard on the tape)
Sen Chuck Hangnail (R-OK) - "That's true. Now he's seen as much combat as I, and much more than Hillary or Obama. Maybe we should focus on the troops that were killed during this attack."
Nancie, Jacques, Harry Nuts (in unison): "Troops? What troops?"
Nancie: "Get serious Hangnail!!! We have more important things to worry about...like turning Americans against Bush!"

Ask this Question When You See a Suicide Bombing in the MSM...
Several of the suicide and other bombings around Baghdad are the product of Al-Qaeda's continuing attempts to assert control over the insurgent elements - including their Sunni allies - the Islamic Army in Iraq.
Al-Qaeda means "barbaric thuggery" in Arabic, or at least it should. They don't play well with others, and will continue to try to control Iraq so that they can build a home state from which to plan and launch worldwide attacks. They have been in Iraq since December 2001, but did not have sufficient numbers to threaten Saddam.
With an increasing presence in west-central Iraq and Pakistan's Federally Administered Tribal Agencies they are forming "Al Qaeda parenthesis" around the anti-Al-Qaeda forces in the region. Their hide and hit strategy will not aid them in holding land unless they can obtain massive reinforcements.
Instead, by attacking their Sunni insurgent allies, Al-Qaeda's arrogance and need for control is leading them to be the "odd man out" in Iraq. More and more Sunni insurgents are beginning to reconsider their alliance with Al-Qaeda and soon, the insurgent call to "drive the foreigners out" will only apply to Al-Qaeda, rather than to Coalition Forces.

Keep it DOWN!!!!
This week, a Wisconsin man barged into his neighbor's apartment wielding a cavalry sword after he thought he heard a woman being raped.
It turns out that the neighbor was actually watching porn and neglected to keep the volume at a (ahem) "discreet" level. The Wisconsin man made his neighbor take him around the apartment to prove no one else was there.
Hmmm... you're sitting there with your thingy hanging out and an obviously upset and possibly deranged man kicks down your front door wielding a long sword. I'm thinkin' there was probably some immediate shrinkage.

Have We Seen This Before?
At the very end we see the words "Join the Energy Revolution - Greenpeace"
Now your history lesson:
Karl Marx actually liked capitalism. He knew it produced scientific innovation, mechanical invention, and one other important thing...ALIENATION.
Marx wrote that Capitalism causes Alienation, making you question religion, male/female relationships, and your family. When the proletariat reaches a high level of Alienation, the Socialist Revolution was most likely to succeed. In this video we see a "10-year-old" alienated from "adults": his/her parents.
Deny your parents - join Greenpeace.
Folks, this is straight out of Marxist theory and was used to brainwash children in the Soviet Republics.
Let's all Write Congress (and Whine)
Have you heard about the website that allows military folks to write Congress and complain about the Battle in Iraq. Here it is: http://www.appealforredress.org/
This site claims to have over one thousand service members who have signed up to whine about the War on Terror. Some of the names listed on the website allegedly include:
Pvt Beetle Bailey, USA
Col Harlan Sanders, USA
Sgt Major Ben Dover
Sgt Phil McKraken
Major Jack Ash
Private Hung Tul Oh
LtCol Phuk Yu, USAF
Some of their reasons for not wanting to go to Iraq include:
-- Hey, I only signed up for the education benefits
-- Desert tan cammies make me look fat
-- Army? I thought this was Americorps
-- They never gave me the cool gadgets I saw on TV
-- No speaka la englissss
These folks may want to double check the names of those who signed up. I'm sure Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse are there somewhere.
They have earned their beclowning.

Drive-by Shooting
In our War on Thugs, it seems that Iraqi insurgents are also resorting to this brazen act of cowardice (diagnosed as Chronic Small-"pee-pee"-itis). So, the US Army has developed a solution to this problem.
It is called the "Aerial Ass-Whoopin'" and was recently applied to five unfortunate jeeeeeehaaaaaaad-ists.
This was probably the work of the Apache Longbow... AIR CAV, HUA!

Heard in the Hallowed Halls of the House
Jacques (Murtha): err…...gonna...cut the doughboys....duuuuuuh....bad, bad doughboys.....
Nancie: I know, let's announce that America should pull out immediately. Hillary said 90 days, and I think we can convince the American people that 90 days is good for us too.
Jacques: When I was......ummmm.....World War II......daaaaaaaaaaarrrrr.....90 days....
Nancie: Do you think the People understand that where the British patrol, the south of Iraq, is more peaceful? If They figure that out, They'll know that the Brits were successful in turning over power to the Iraqis.
We can't let the People think that Iraq can be a success. Bush must lose this war!!! We need to keep Congress Democratic! We should find ways to encourage the terrorists around the Sunni Triangle.
Jacques: ....uhhh Triangle....daaaa.....Rectangle......umm.....Square....
duhhhhhh, square dancing.....Jacques like square dance....
Swing yer partner by the neck, Swing her 'til she's dead by heck….ha..ha..haaaaa…ha…ha
Nancie: Jacque? Jacques!...Focus for a minute!
Jacques: Umm.....errrrr...Jacques sorry...Nancie nice to Jacque....
Nancie: Should we advocate for a pull out?
Jacques: Pull out! Pull out!....I'm going dooooown....Ahhhh engine on fire......pull out NOW!
Nancie: I agree...Summon the media! Jacques, this is serious, so no talking from you. Have you taken your meds today?
Jacques: Meds goo-oo-oo-ood for Jacques.
More Fractures in the Insurgency?
When two dogs vie for leadership of the pack, there is bound to be blood. In this case, all of the blood has come from Al-Qaeda attacking the Sunni insurgents - trying to show who's the biggest dog in this fight.
The owner of Muj TV, (Mishan Al-Jabouri) the 24/7 Insurgent News Network (just like our CNN - Communist News Network) personally took to the airwaves to condemn Al-Qaeda's goals for destabilizing Iraq. Jabouri is part of the Islamic Army in Iraq and recently realized he made a deal with the Devil.
This came to him when he suddenly realized:
1) Hey, I don't want my home country to be a permanent home to terrorists (hmm, just figured that out, didya?)
2) The Shi'a outnumber us Sunnis about 2-to-1 (Math was never his strong suit)
3) The Shi'a are pissed off and killing a bunch of my Sunni buddies in revenge for Al-Qaeda's bombing of Shi'a marketplaces
4) Al-Qaeda has been killing Sunni leaders who don't cooperate with them -- and I'm a Sunni leader (YIKES!)
Now Jabouri wants Al-Qaeda out.
Allaaaaaaaahu Akbar, the boy has finally seen the light!
Be HEALED my Brother! The stupidity has left your bo-o-o-o-dy. Thank you MO-hammed (peace be upon him) LALALALALALALALALALALALALA!!!!
If only he had read Hamilton in Federalist #1 maybe this jerkoff could have figured this out about 4 years ago. Hamilton said:
"Among the most formidable of the obstacles which the new Constitution will have to encounter may readily be distinguished the obvious interest of a certain class of men in every State to resist all changes which may hazard a diminution of the power, emolument, and consequence of the offices they hold under the State establishments; and the perverted ambition of another class of men, who will...hope to aggrandize themselves by the confusions of their country"

The Democrats' Real Reason to Redeploy
How's that Workin' for Ya', Pakistan?
Write your Congressperson today and e-mail them the Roggio article.
Grandma Botox Takes on the Evil College System
On the other hand, one young communications major, Ashley Kinsey, felt Nancie was a "rock star" ("vedette" in the liberal language of surrender) and was glad to see her. Gushing Over Botox.
Sorry Nancie, President Bush already included those measures in his budget.
Nancie insists that illegal immigrants be afforded the same in-state tuition rates as legal citizens. Speaking in the land of Prop 300, the referendum in which Arizonans overwhelmingly said "no" to in-state benefits for illegals, Nancie felt compelled to insist that your money subsidize those who broke the law. So, let me get this straight Nancie, illegals pay in-state tuition, but an American student from another state must pay more?
Yes, I know, some illegal children are in America because of their parents. These students didn't personally break the law; however, others did. The question becomes whether we want to fiscally punish the American people by absorbing the lower rate of tuition into our colleges -- charging American kids (and parents) more money to offset lower costs to those who are federal fugitives?
For those who didn't personally break the law, unfortunately, they should be also pay the out-of-state tuition rate. There is no real way to investigate whether they came across on their own or with their parents. And, creating yet another government bureaucracy to answer these questions would probably cost more than the in-state/out-of-state offsets.
The only compromise I can see on this issue is to allow ICE to make a determination on prospective immigrant students. If ICE cannot verify that the parents brought them across the border prior to their 16th birthday, they pay the full freight. But, even then, if we allow these students to pay less, we create an incentive for parents to break the law by illegally bringing their children into the country. Meanwhile your children (and you) get stuck with a bigger bill.
One of my students is in this predicament. After many years his formerly illegal immigrant parents are now legal citizens, but he is not. I encouraged him to file for citizenship. While the system is processing his request, the responsibility for his situation does not lie with America, it falls on his parents - those who put him in this position to begin with.
I know this idea of parental responsibility will offend some of you liberals. Sorry for that.

The American People Are Not as Stupid as Those They Elect
With the DumbasCraps in the House and Senate trying to undermine the troops, the American people have taken note, and at least for now, do not want an immediate withdrawal.
Here's a pic of one poll: IBD/TIPP Poll
...and a URL for another: Angus Reid
For the libs who would like to refute this, do something different before responding, pay attention to the questions asked during the poll.
Words of a Patriot
These are the words of Rep Sam Johson (R-TX) during the House debate on H.R. 645 "Let's Abandon the troops in Iraq"
Johnson was a 29-year veteran of the military and flew missions over Korea and Vietnam. He was a Prisoner of War for 7 years during Vietnam; more than half of that in solitary confinement.
His entire speech can be found on Sam Johnson's website:
But here are a few snippets for you to consider: "I view the debate on the floor not just as a U.S. Congressman elected to serve the good people of the Third District in Texas, but also through the lens of a life-long fighter pilot, student of war, a combat warrior, a leader of men, and a Prisoner of War. "We POWs were still in Vietnam when Washington cut the funding for Vietnam. I know what it does to morale and mission success. Words can not fully describe the horrendous damage of the anti-American efforts against the war back home to the guys on the ground. "Our captors would blare nasty recordings over the loud speaker of Americans protesting back home…tales of Americans spitting on Vietnam veterans when they came home... and worse. "We must never, ever let that happen again. "The pain inflicted by your country's indifference is tenfold that inflicted by your ruthless captors.
But here are a few snippets for you to consider:
"I view the debate on the floor not just as a U.S. Congressman elected to serve the good people of the Third District in Texas, but also through the lens of a life-long fighter pilot, student of war, a combat warrior, a leader of men, and a Prisoner of War.

"We must never, ever let that happen again.
"The pain inflicted by your country's indifference is tenfold that inflicted by your ruthless captors.
Debating non-binding resolutions aimed at earning political points only destroys morale, stymies success, and emboldens the enemy.
"The grim reality is that this House measure is the first step to cutting funding of the troops…Just ask John Murtha about his 'slow-bleed' plan that hamstrings our troops in harm's way.
"Now it's time to stand up for my friends who did not make it home – and those who fought and died in Iraq - so I can keep my promise that when we got home we would quit griping about the war and do something positive about it…and we must not allow this Congress to leave these troops like the Congress left us.
"God bless you and I salute you all. Thank you."
Traitors to the Troops
How exactly do these Judas' not understand the negative impact of this resolution on the troops? Do they think the troops (who overwhelmingly want to finish this fight) are just stupid little children who need their "grownup" leadership. Those troops and their NCOs piss out more leadership in their urine everyday than these pompous asses will ever possess.
Voting in the Democrat Block were:
Senators John W. Whiner of Virginia, Arlen Sphincter of Pennsylvania, Chuck Hangnail of Nebraska, Gordon "Silver Spoon" Smith of Oregon, Norm "I used to be a Democrat" Coleman of Minnesota, and Olympia Snowe Job and Susan "the Ragin' RINO" Collins, both of Maine.
You have abandoned the troops and are all "dead" to me. I will never again speak your names without including the word "F*ckin'" (i.e. "F*ckin' Sphincter voted to kneecap our troops AGAIN!")
Yesterday's News - Things you won't see in the MSM
Coalition forces captured the leader of a car-bomb network HIDING IN A HOSPITAL. Hmm, isn't that against the Geneva Conventions of War? Will the Main stream media report this?
Four Al-Qaeda down, four captured. Found HIDING AMONG WOMEN AND CHILDREN. Hmm, isn't that against the Geneva Conventions of War? Will the Main stream media report this? Wait, didn't I already ask that question?
Iraqi SWAT captures Al-Qaeda leader in Mosul. No women, children or hospitals known to be involved - for a change.
An outline of the new Iraq strategy and the impact of Democrat whining.
Okay, this one will be in the MSM, but not with the same opinion:
Senate Republicans Block the Senate from Committing an Act of Utter Stupidity: I finally agree with John McCain on something. In this article he states the non-binding "Let's Bitch Our Way Out of Iraq" measure is "meaningless, and told one (New Hampshire) audience the symbolic measures are 'insulting to the public and the soldiers.'" - right on!

Oh no, Those Intolerant Religious People Did It!!!
.....Your 15 minutes are officially over.
The former Edwards' Presidential High Mufti of the Electronic Word "quit" the Edwards campaign several days ago. Yeah, that's it, she "quit". We all know what the word "quit" means in politics.
Having told her story to Salon, Marcotte still doesn't get it. To her, when religious people tell the truth (using her own words), Ms. Marcotte insists it is a "smear".
Maybe she thinks the Catholic Church (her perpetual target) should canonize her as a martyr instead.
The Word according to Saint Amanda of the Unhinged (patron saint of the revoltingly bigoted) is available for everyone to read. Her own words hanged her but she is still fundamentally incapable of taking responsibility.
Another word for this type of behavior is "arrogance".
What does this say about the Left who rally to her side or about Edwards who hired her?
No doubt she has noticed the drop in traffic at her Blog of Hate. Similarly, she is no longer worth the time it takes to write about her, even on this simple, insignificant little blog.
And so, this is the last post in which I will waste electrons regarding this vile little creature.
Bye, bye, Ms. Marcotte. I do hope you find another job - so this will help. I hope you find the happiness that is so obviously missing from your lonely, and now, irrelevant life.

Ahr We zee French???
This, just in from the House of Representative: By a vote of 246 to 182 the House votes to...
Abandon hope all ye brave men. Ignore the sacrifice of those who have fallen, for most assuredly their blood will mean nothing. They will be remembered as having failed to win the Battle for Iraq.
And we, the DumbasCraps, Lords and Masters of the House of Representatives, will finally have a victory over Bush. That is all that matters."
An Open Letter to the House of Representatives: Stop the Torture of the American Military
Today the Democrats passed a non-binding resolution condemning our troops' execution of the battle for Iraq. They rejected the plan of the man (Gen Petraeus) that the Senate just unanimously confirmed to run the new battle plan.
While Democrats hark back in outrage at Abu Ghraib or Guantanamo Bay, they ignore their own complicity in torture; torture of American troops. Vote by vote, step by step, the Democrat-led Congress continues a relentless psychological torture of your military men and women through their complete lack of faith in the soldiers' ability to defeat terrorists.
America's bravest, putting their lives on the line, fighting the evil of Al-Qaeda each day, hear the voices; voices far away from the real battles. Washington is no longer a fetid swamp, but foul and putrid offal still flows from the mouths of short-sighted power seekers; washing over the minds of the soldier.
It took just a little over five years for these Perfumed Princes and Princesses to forget the cowardice and brutality of the enemy. They, ruling from their pretentious fiefdoms, discount how they've been kept safe by better men and women. Intoxicated and blinded by their own power and thirst for more, they attack only those who do them no real harm. Attacking our soldiers for dying, other politicians for wanting this fight, but Al-Qaeda -- no, they cannot attack Al-Qaeda – Al-Qaeda might fight back.
In their blindness they cannot envision the greater stage on which this war is fought. They cannot grasp Hegel's Cunning of Reason – the historic upheavals caused by nation-states that lead to progress for all Mankind. They are concerned with today, yet cannot understand how defeating terrorists today can improve the world tomorrow.
Instead they use hyperbole to denigrate our soldiers' ability and competence. Make no mistake, when they claim the President is incompetent, they really speak about the performance of our troops. They declare that 3,000 American casualties over 4 years is failure. In this they ignore history. Since they often use Vietnam as their point of comparison, consider 1968, the year John Kerry claimed he fought the Viet Cong. In Kerry's time, at 1388 casualties per month, four years of casualties would amount to 67,000 American dead. Are today's troops incompetent? Hardly. Today's troops are fabulously effective at protecting themselves and killing the terrorists that flock to Iraq.
The Pentagon doesn't announce enemy casualties, but from my research and military experience (from 1979 - 2005), I conservatively estimate we are killing the terrorists at a 10:1 ratio. If we've lost 3,000 the terrorists have lost 30,000. Al-Qaeda sending more terrorists to Iraq can only benefit the entire world. Incompetent? No, our soldiers are valiant, effective, and changing the world. But what do the Democrats tell you and them?
Have you heard that Democrats support the troops but not the war? How is that done exactly? I can understand if you support a singular soldier that you personally know. But, when you state their efforts are collectively incompetent and don't support their mission, you cannot support the troops as a body. If you really want to support the troops, increase their numbers. By doing so you reduce the number of times each individual soldier deploys away from their family. Reverse Clinton's draconian cuts in manpower, today.
Instead, Jack Murtha is trying to pass legislation that would require units to prove they are trained, ready and have been back in the United States for at least one year before deploying to Iraq. Sounds sensible doesn't it? However, the troops now in Iraq must be extended until Murtha thinks the proof is sufficient. Murtha (the Democrat seeking mainly to rebuke the President) will require troops to stay in the combat zone well past their return date. The Democrats are at war with Bush, not Al-Qaeda. Does this make you feel safer? Meanwhile our troops are left in Murtha-limbo, not knowing when they will return; not knowing when they may see their families.
Some believe that psychological torture is much worse than physical.
Stop the torture.
Fascinating Short-Sightedness
The House Version, entitled H.R. 645: "Let's Abandoned Troops in Iraq", has offered some interesting quotes from representatives:
Sestak (D-PA) stated that we have degraded our military through overdeployment. (Well, yes, since Clinton cut the military by one-third we haven't had the troops to fight a real war).
SLeestak also bemoaned us creating a "culture of dependency" in Iraq...I hope to hear this same whining from him when Grandma Botox moves to re-authorize Welfare or add Nationalized Health Care. We already have Social Security, Medicaid, et al, that create a enough of a "culture of dependency".
Oberstar (D-MN) Claimed the troops don't want to be there. And he goes on to ponder...Has anyone asked what the troops think?
As a matter of fact they have. All of my former troops that are there know the mission, they feel they are making a difference, and though leaving family is hard, they're happy to be doing what they're doing. Perhaps Oberstar should think before speaking - oh wait, then he would have to change parties.
Then from Sam Johnson (R-TX) a man who flew combat missions over Korea, and Vietnam; a man wounded and held captive by the Viet Cong: he talked of the Viet Cong blaring news of the American public's weakness and lack of support. Rep Johnson told of how his right side is partially paralyzed from his captivity. He chided Rep Jack Murtha for a "slow-bleed" plan to cut off funding for our troops. And finally, he exhorted the Congress to never abandon our troops while they are fighting for us. He rejects a non-binding resolution that means nothing and harms our soldiers. I did not record the speech, but it was moving. As he slowly limped away from the podium, the House erupted in a standing ovation. Even some DumbasCraps were standing...but did they get the message?
I've contacted my representative (a Republican) and asked him to do me a favor during the vote. I'll tell you what that favor was on Friday.
Did We Overreact to 9-11?
Think this Guy is Pissed?
Then, try this post from Cold Fury.
And this is why he's so angry.
It's always bad for liberals when conservatives sign up for their organizational mail.
Read the links above only if you are really prepared to learn the truth about the Democrats.
The Victory Caucus/Murtha link is explosive and borders (or steps over the line) on real, no kidding, 100% pure treason in time of war.
UPDATE on the Queen's Travel Arrangements (Or, I told ya' so)
But don't worry folks: she's safe, I repeat, she's safe!! She did not run out of fuel as previously believed.
Seems that "Botox" Pelosi didn't have any trouble making it to California using Denny Hastert's old airplane after all.
What was all that about needing a bigger aircraft?
Debunking Leftist Lies: There's no Way Al-Qaeda Would Cooperate With Non-Sunnis
Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri (Al-Qaeda's #2 for those of you keeping score) released another videotape which is posted on SITE, February 12, 2007.
Zawahiri called for unity among all Muslims from every nation.
"I ask my Muslim brothers in general and the callers and Mujahideen and their media organizations (editor's note: ABC, NBC, CBS) in particular to highlight the concept of Islamic brotherhood and disown all partisanship, loyalties and animosities based on nationalism, and I ask them not to allow the wrongdoing of a faction or entity motivate them to speak evil of that party's entire people or race."
Isn't that sweet. Mr. Zawahiri wants everyone to "just get along". So, are we gonna have a party, Ayman; holding hands and singing Kumbaya?
No, he calls for...
"Muslims to serve in jihad in Mauritania, as well as Afghanistan, Iraq, Algeria, and Somalia, either by bearing arms, monies, or words. He sends greetings to the "fledging" Islamic State of Iraq and members of its leadership, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi and Abu Hamza al-Muhajir, and the Mujahideen in both Algeria and Somalia."
Zawahiri is reaching out across ethnic, national, and religious lines in an effort to unite Islamofascists of all stripes to fight jeeeeehahhhhhhd....lalalalalalalalalalalala.
Wait a minute, wasn't Al-Qaeda supposed to be an exclusively Wahhabist strain of insanity? Seems Ayman needs a little help.
What'samatta' Ayman, are all of your troops getting Bushwhacked?
Zawahiri also demonized George W. Bush by declaring he is an "alcoholic", addicted to drinking, lying, and gambling"
(Zawahiri included English sub-titles so that Democrats in Congress could write down some talking points.)
Insurgents Armed with Iranian Sniper Rifles
However, but, comma, pause, these are not just a "few" sniper rifles. One hundred of the eight hundred rifles shipped to Iran by Austria have been discovered during raids by coalition forces. That's more than 10 percent (12.5% to be exact) of the entire supply of sniper rifles in Iran's purchase.
Ahem, don't you think the Iranians would have missed those one hundred .50 caliber rifles...that cost $15,000 per copy?
Naaaah, just a clerical error (no pun intended).

A statement released Monday by Manchester Police said police officers responded to the Centrix Bank at 41 Hooksett Road Friday for a report of a robbery. Police identified and arrested Eric Dow, 40, of 747 Beech Street as the suspect in that robbery on Monday, Jan. 13, 2014.
Police stated that on Friday, at about 5:15 p.m., upon his arrival at the bank, Officer Ryan Brandreth met three employees who reported that a man armed with a gun had entered the bank and demanded money.
Employees, told Officer Brandreth the suspect approached the counter, and after handing a teller a note, announcing a robbery and demanding cash, he then brandished a black handgun, jumped over the counter and escorted two employees to the safe, where the suspect took some cash and fled the building on foot.
The Manchester Police Department Detective Squad, along with the department's Special Enforcement Division, began an intensive investigation, and during the course of that investigation, Dow was identified as the suspect. Dow was located and taken into custody at approximately 8:00 p.m. Monday, on Eddy Road without incident, police said.
At the time the statement was released, police said the investigation was still ongoing and that anyone with information on this case is still being asked to contact the Manchester Police Department at 668-8711. Anonymous tips for cash rewards can be made through the Manchester Crimeline at 624-4040 or online at manchestercrimeline.org.

On May 2, Walt Disney World Resort dedicated the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train during a special ceremony held at Magic Kingdom. The family-friendly roller coaster, inspired by "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," takes guests on a ride into a mine featuring Disney's favorite Dwarfs hard at work.
Walt Disney Parks & Resorts Chairman Tom Staggs attended the dedication ceremony for the family coaster, which was broadcast live on the Disney Parks Blog. The dedication also featured appearances by the Seven Dwarfs and their friend, Snow White. The Disney Princess, along with Dopy, used a special golden pickaxe against a faux boulder, mimicking the dedication of a ship using a champagne bottle.
Friday's dedication Walt Disney World (WDW) also announced the attraction's official opening date. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train opens to all guests May 28.
The dedication of the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train marks the completion of New Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom. At the ceremony, Staggs said about the family coaster:
"Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is both literally and figuratively the centerpiece of New Fantasyland, so we knew it had to be something special. The attraction appeals to everyone in the family and provides just the right blend of heart, humor, and thrill while keeping with the charm of this special land.
"It's my honor to dedicate the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, which we think will become an instant classic in New Fantasyland."
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train offers family fun in New Fantasyland
The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train carefully draws upon Disney's 1937 animated movie "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" by using scenes and music from the film. The family coaster not only offers dark-ride elements, evoking some of Walt Disney World's (WDW's) classic attraction, but features its own innovations. The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train offers ride vehicles that swing back and forth during the ride, helping to immerse guests into the feeling they are taking a "wild" ride on a mine train.
In announcing the opening date for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Walt Disney World launched a brief interactive game on its site. When completed, the game revealed a Miner's Kit that offers some brief information on the ride. The kit also provides instructions useful for playing the games found in the attraction's queue.
Rolling and rocking with the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
Coaster enthusiasts awaiting WDW's first roller coaster since 2006 will appreciate Disney's mine cars. The family-friendly coaster itself is mild, with 31-foot and 41-foot drops and no inversions, and may be ridden by guests 38" and taller. As with so many things Disney, the biggest thrills can be found in the attractions innovations and details.
After passing through an interactive pre-show area with fun activities themed to mining – such as washing and sorting gems – guests board the mine cars that take them on a journey in and outside the mine. Each one of the trains for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train has five mine cars that will hold four guests. The cars are designed independently from side to side, a newly patented design from Walt Disney Imagineering developed for this attraction.
The track for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train enhances this "rock-n-roll" effect. It winds, climbs and dips to take guests in and outside the mine for a glimpse at the Dwarfs' work and home. The interior scenes for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train use Audio-Animatronics of the dwarfs, and the mine trains slow down to let guests look at the scenes.
Because the coaster is almost completely "on stage," WDW notes that guests can see New Fantasyland from a variety of angles when traveling outside the mine. Maurice's cottage and Beast's Castle above Be Our Guest Restaurant, for instance, can be seen during the ride. It's a quick look, of course, as the ride only lasts a few minutes.
Digging for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train details
For many Disney guests, some of the appeal of the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train will be in its theming – for how WDW draws upon the movie to create a detailed environment. For the family coaster and its queue, Walt Disney Imagineers incorporated elements and details that will be familiar to guests who know the animated movie.
The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train begins as Disney guests cross a stone bridge and walk through a forest. The setting is a nod to the movie's striking multiplane scene when Snow White finds the Dwarfs' cottage (sometimes referred to as Snow White's cottage).
The look of the Dwarfs' cottage references "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" in details as varied as the roof's color combinations and the slope of its eaves, the lanterns and the decorative forest creatures etched into the house. The attraction even includes the wisteria vine and birdhouse found at the movie's cottage. The coaster's props – ropes, pulleys, lanterns and the use, size and color of jewels – were similarly inspired by the movie.
On the attraction, the mine cars look like those in the film, resembling the roughly-hewn cars the dwarfs use to excavate rocks and transport jewels. The interior scenes offer guests a look at the Dwarfs' lives, evoking the film through recreating such elements as Doc's mine workstation and the familiar "…home from work we go" scene where the dwarfs' cast dramatically large shadows.
As with many recent Disney attractions, the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train offers an interactive queue. Activities have a mining theme as, for example, the gem sorting and washing game. A note from Doc tells guests how to sort the gems that flow by in a wooden trough, another example of WDW's use of screens. Guests can sort the jewels into a tray, matching them by color and shape. And at the jewel-washing station, 12 spigots – which correspond to the notes of the musical scale – will encourage guests to play music and maybe even whistle while they wait (and get wet).
In addition to the mining activities, the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train's interactive queue is filled with references to the Disney movie. Mining tools, barrels and hoists are scattered throughout the queue tunnel and at the boarding area. Disney guests with a soft spot for Dopey will appreciate the third station in the interactive queue, which references the vault.
The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train offers more than just a look at the Dwarfs, including a few surprises. The family coaster includes a glimpse at Snow White and of the Evil Queen, in her disguise as an old hag. And there are even a couple of hidden Mickeys.
There's even a nod or two to Snow White's Scary Adventures, the dark ride that was closed as part of Magic Kingdom's New Fantasyland expansion. At the cottage, near the attraction's end, guests will see the figures of Grumpy, Doc, Bashful, Sleepy, and Happy. There are also two vultures from the attraction, found on the jib crane near the mine's entrance.
With the official opening of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Walt Disney World Resort completes New Fantasyland, the multi-year expansion of Magic Kingdom first announced in 2009. New Fantasyland includes the Enchanted Forest area, with attractions such as Enchanted Tales with Belle and Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid, and the popular Be Our Guest Restaurant. New Fantasyland also include Storybook Circus, which is the relocated home to Dumbo The Flying Elephant and The Barnstormer kiddie coaster, and the new Casey Junior Splash 'N' Soak Station and Pete's Silly Sideshow tent for Disney character meet-and-greets.

Disease Proof
Popcorn Lung Disease?
Here's a weird one. Parent Dish is all over a warning that microwave buttered popcorn heightens the risk of lung disease. Check it out:
A pulmonary specialist at Denver's National Jewish Medical and Research Center thinks exposure to the fumes from microwave butter popcorn might be the cause of lung disease in one of her patients. She sent a letter to several federal agencies expressing her concerns. "We cannot be sure that this patient's exposure to butter flavored microwave popcorn from daily heavy preparation has caused his lung disease," said Dr. Cecile Rose. "However, we have no other plausible explanation."Butter—bleh!
Apparently the patient, a unidentified man, consumed "several bags of extra butter flavored microwave popcorn" every day for several years. The ailing patient's condition improved when he stopped making the popcorn.
This may sound far-fetched, but it's not. So-called "popcorn lung" is a real disease that has resulted in lawsuits by workers in food factories who were exposed to diacetyl, a chemical used to create that buttery flavor.

Massachusetts Takes On Long-Time Foe Duquesne Next
Jan. 12, 2014
The Last Meeting
February 24, 2013
Amherst, Mass. (Mullins Center)
Most Recent Meeting: Duquesne 53, Massachusetts 44
Despite trailing by 12 at the intermission, the Minutewomen defense lead UMass' attempt to erase the margin during the final stanza, as Duquesne was only able to hit six field goals after halftime. The Minutewomen scored the first four points of the second on jumpers by Rashida Timbilla and Watson to pull within eight, 33-25 with 16:36 remaining. UMass continued to chip away at the Dukes lead, as Emily Mital answered with a three-pointer at 14:13 to knock the deficit down to 35-28 after Wumi Agunbiade netted a pair of foul shots for Duquesne.
Agunbiade drained a jumper on the other end of the floor before Carolann Cloutier and Millie Niggeling followed up Mital's trey with three-pointers of their own. Cloutier connected with 11:20 left in the contest while Niggeling swished one from the top of the arc 1:52 later to pull UMass as close as it would come to tying, 37-34.
The Minutewomen were within four, 46-42 with 3:15 remaining after Watson fought into the paint and netted a turnaround layup; however, Duquesne sealed the contest with five made free throws down the stretch.
Scouting Duquesne Women's Basketball
Two Duquesne players have eclipsed 15 points per game on average in Raegan Moore (15.8) and Wumi Agunbiade (15.1) while two others have scored in double-digits as April Robinson provides 11.8 points and Olivia Bresnahan chips in 10.0 points in each contest. Agunbiade leads the squad in rebounding (7.6) while April Robinson paces the Dukes with 4.5 assists per game.
Dan Burt is in his first season leading Duquesne as the squad outscores its foes, 74.4-to-67.2 but trails in rebounding, 38.1-to-36.5 through 17 contests. Burt was previously the top assistant coach for the Dukes from 2007-13 after serving on the staffs at West Virginia (1998-01), UNC Wilmington (2001-04) and Bucknell (2004-07).

Conquest of The New World gameplay video loading, please wait...
Download Conquest of the New World
from GOG
Conquest of The New World (pc game)
4.62 out of 5 (37 votes)
- Genre: Strategy, Historical, God game or micromanagement
- System: Windows
- Software house: Interplay
- Year: 1996
A turn based game with an interesting story
Conquest of the New World deploys you in a theater of battle that is none other than our Earth, where you can choose to be the leader of any of the six European nations featured, along with High natives one. This is a game that feels like an extended board game ported onto the PC. You will start out by building a small colony, expand it with a host of new building and try to prepare for an invasion. Much in the style of Civilization but with less of a backstory and without the intricacies of that game, Conquest of the New World feels a bit underwhelming, so if you really want to experience it properly you will have to play with friends. The multiplayer options allow for asynchronous mail sessions, LAN multiplayer or even hot seat play. Graphics wise the game looks very good and for the history fanatics out there, the events portrayed in the game are in tune with known historic fact. So, to hone your skills you might want to try some of the included scenarios, who will pit you against other ancient colonies of our planet's history. I recommend the game for turn based strategists that love to take their time and concoct scenarios and to think about alternative stories. For them it will surely be worthwhile.
Select which country you would like to play
This is an amazing game! It is turn-based, and takes place during the initial discovery of the American Continents. You select which country you would like to play as (Spain, Britain, Portugal, France, or the Natives), and then proceed in exploring the new world, building colonies and armies, and battling it out with the other nations in order to gain control of the continent. It can be played with multiple people on the same computer (although you'll probably want to send everybody who's turn it is NOT out of the room). I played this a great deal when I was young, and had a riot with it!

I Walk The Line - Recap
<-- Previous Episode
Next Episode -->
The episode begins with a chicken picking Ruby to be the mayor. "I am doomed" Lavon says, but Lemon assures him "the mayor's race is far from over". "All that matters, is tonight's big debate" Lemon tells him. She asks Lavon to "crush" Ruby in the debate. Magnolia tells Zoe how Brick hasn't been eating properly and isn't taking care of himself. She wants Zoe to "fix "him. Zoe promises she shall look into the issue. Zoe later checks up on Brick and asks him "is there anything wrong?" Brick doesn't give her a straight answer, but Zoe persists. She wants to examine Brick to see if his health is ok. But, Brick makes it clear to her that, the only time she will get to examine him, is during his autopsy.
Annabeth and Lemon give Lavon a pep talk before the big debate. The debate begins with George moderating it. During the debate, Lavon and Ruby begin making comments which suggest the two are really into each other. Lemon notices this and is visibly unhappy. "I think he likes her" Lemon whispers to Annabeth. The next day, Lavon admits to Lemon that the debate did not go too well. "That is because you are involved with Ruby Jeffries" Lemon tells him. Lavon tries to deny it, but Lemon says Lavon was practically endorsing Ruby for mayor. "I was being civil" Lavon awkwardly says trying to justify himself. Lemon then asks Lavon to stay away from Ruby, if he wants to win the elections. Lemon basically tells Lavon to focus, or says that he shall lose. Lemon then springs into action, in order to garner votes for Lavon.
At the clinic, Zoe offers to teach Magnolia how to drive and in return wants Brick to let her examine him. "Deal and no take backs" Brick says. Wade finds that his ex-wife Tanzi is back in town. George is bothered by the fact that his new girlfriend Presley, doesn't vote. He discusses this with her and she gives the reasoning that big corporations have "the system rigged" and therefore she doesn't "want to play". George in then end manages to convince her to vote. Tanzi who is now living in a trailer in Bluebell tells Wade, she did not get any clients after beauty school and therefore had to move back to town. Wade asks her to vote for Lavon, but she says she is technically a few feet outside Bluebell and therefore it would be dishonest of her to vote. Wade feels she is making a big deal out of a small issue.
The two then get into a heated argument. In the end, Tanzi in anger, asks Wade to "go away". Lavon and Ruby run into each other at the polling station and discuss about the previous night's debate. Ruby asks Lavon if he was flirting with her, and he awkwardly denies it. He then asks Ruby about her plans after the elections. "After the election I plan to be mayor, so I plan to be busy" she says. Lavon asks what she would do if she loses. She says she has no reason to "stick around town" if she loses. She adds that she would be on the "first bus out of town". Lavon isn't too happy to hear this. Zoe during the check up, finds out that Brick and Emily might be having some issues. Lemon and feels Lavon isn't doing enough to win the elections and she is having, to do all the hard work.
She reminds him that he has to put in some effort if she wants to get Ruby out of their lives. "Why do you care about getting rid of Ruby Jeffries?" Lavon asks her angrily. Lemon is hurt by his question and says she doesn't care about getting rid of Ruby if he doesn't. "I quit" Lemon tells Lavon angrily and storms out. While teaching Magnolia how to drive, Zoe asks her if everything is ok between Brick and Emily. Magnolia basically says she has no idea. George manages to convince Tanzi to vote for Lavon, and in return offers to allow her to cut his hair. She takes George up on the deal. Annabeth asks Lemon why she quit. Lemon confesses to Annabeth, how Lavon and her were in "love once". "Lord help me, I still think I am" Lemon confesses to Annabeth. Lemon says she doesn't think Lavon feels the same as she does and neither does he know how she feels about him.
While Tanzi is giving George a haircut, Wade hitches her trailer to his truck and drags it back into town. In the process, Tanzi accidently lops off a huge chuck of hair from George's head, exposing a part of his skin. George sees this in the mirror and is livid. Brick confesses to Zoe that, Emily hasn't returned his calls for 3 days. The only thing Emily is doing each time is sending a text message saying she will call, but she hasn't called yet. Brick concludes Emily is seeing someone else and is therefore avoiding him. Zoe says he doesn't know that for sure, and suggests he stop torturing himself. Zoe suggests, Brick go to Emily in North Carolina "face her and get the truth". Brick doesn't think it's a good idea, but Zoe eventually talks him into it. Brick casts an absentee vote and then leaves to meet Emily.
Zoe decides to submit the vote after she has given Magnolia a driving lesson. In the meantime, the election results are out, and turns out it's a tie. The town constitution says, in case of a tie-breaker, the chicken would decide. Lemon is worried on hearing this, as she is sure the chicken will pick Ruby, like it has, so many times during the campaign. Annabeth reminds Lemon, how Ruby winning, would mean her staying in town and close to Lavon and therefore she suggests Lemon tell Lavon how she feels about him. "Go tell him before its too late; don't put your heart in the hands of a chicken" Annabeth tells Lemon. Lavon on the other hand confesses to Wade, the feelings that he has for Ruby.
Wade asks if Ruby feels the same way about him. "That is unclear" Lavon says. Wade suggests, Lavon tell Ruby how he feels, because if the chicken picks him, he shall never get the opportunity to do so. Just then, Lemon enters his office to talk to him. Lavon tells her he doesn't have time and rushes out. Just before the chicken is about to pick the winner, Lavon pulls Ruby away to talk to him. Presley tells George she voted for Ruby. George isn't too happy to hear this and makes his displeasure known. Presley is put off by George's behavior and as a result breaks up with him. Lavon admits to Ruby that he likes her and was flirting with her at the debate. "I was flirting with you too" Ruby admits.
Just before the chicken is about to pick, Zoe hands over Brick's absentee ballot. Thanks to Brick's vote, Lavon is declared the winner. Lavon and Ruby are busy kissing each other. The whole town is surprised to see this and begins applauding. Lemon on her part is shocked and visibly hurt. She quietly walks away with tears in her eyes. Brick is happy to find out that, Emily was working double time so she could pay him a visit, which is the reason why, she wasn't answering his calls. George and Tanzi apparently seem to bond. George then asks Tanzi to fix his haircut, which she is happy to do. The episode ends at this point.

Site: In The Vip
Date: Tuesday, February 22, 2011
I think our ladies loved the new club we found. They got extra wild. Brannon's cock got pulled out early on by a horny little girl that just wanted to turn the party up a notch, so Jmac pulled his out to see who would come along. One after another 5 or so chicks were passing Jmac's cock around like it was the side dish at the dinner table. Both guys found a main course to consume as the night went on. The girls that did not get their fill of cock still had a blast playing with each other. It was an ass and tittie smacking good time!

KELSO — Shari Brentin will spend a year in prison for her role in defrauding an elderly Woodland woman out of nearly $24,000 in late 2011, Cowlitz Superior Court Judge Michael Evans ruled Thursday. The sentence is four times harsher than the standard range.
Evans also sentenced Brentin's husband, former Woodland fire chief Tony Brentin, to six months in jail, twice the standard range. He agreed with Deputy Prosecutor James Smith that Shari Brentin took a more direct role in the crime by actually bringing the victim, Suzanne Faveluke, to a credit union to withdraw the money.
A jury on March 25 found the couple guilty of first-degree theft by deception.
Evans allowed the couple a week to put their belongings in storage and make arrangements for their animals. They must report to the Cowlitz County Jail by noon Wednesday. Evans denied their attorneys' motion for an appeal bond, so the Brentins will stay in jail while their case is under appeal.
The Brentins waived their right to address the court during the sentencing hearing.
Before passing sentence, Evans said he read through letters from the Brentins' numerous supporters in which words such as generous, kind, good, helpful and caring were liberally used to describe them.
He said he also noted the good works the couple have done in the community, and that they have no criminal history.
"I tend to agree: The Brentins have lived a good life," he said. "They're not the typical person I see in front of my court."
He speculated aloud that the Brentins were "good, upstanding leaders" who found themselves in "difficult financial straits." With Faveluke's reputation for generosity, "the temptation was there."
But Evans said he has "a lot of concern" about crime that preys on the elderly. Faveluke, 75, sat in the back row at the Brentins' sentencing but did not make a statement in court. Smith described her repeatedly Thursday as "vulnerable."
Prosecutors said Tony Brentin, 52, who retired from the Woodland Fire Department in 2009, got Faveluke to give him $5,000 for his foundering Woodland City Council campaign, then spent the money on long-overdue rent. Brentin lost the election.
Shari Brentin, 48, was convicted of convincing Faveluke, an animal lover, that her cat was dying of cancer. Faveluke handed over thousands of dollars for care of Brentin's cat, Mr. Socks, who didn't have cancer.

Introduction to Ski
What is Skiing and Snowboarding?
Some would say it's the best way to take advantage of exceptionally snowy destinations like Banff National Park!
Originating in Norway and Sweden, skiing is a sport in which the participant fixes long runners (skis) to specialized boots in order to travel on top of the surface of the snow. Legs are kept parallel to each other, and properly shaped skis allow skiers to carve turns on downhill slopes. Inspired by other sports, such as skateboarding and surfing, snowboarding was developed much later (in the 1960s and 1970s). In snowboarding the participant's feet face sideways on the board and turns are performed with the knees always facing the same direction.
Both skiing and snowboarding can be learned on lower-angled slopes, and gradually increasing to steeper inclines.
The History of Skiing in Banff National Park
The story of skiing in Banff National Park goes back to the beginning of the 20th century. A few local Banff boys, including Cyril Paris, Peter Whyte and his brother, Clifford White, became hooked on skiing after ski jumpers from Revelstoke, British Columbia, were invited to the Banff Winter Carnival of 1917 to show off their sport. These local Banff boys, along with some others, established the Banff Ski Club, which can be credited for increasing the popularity of the sport in Banff National Park and establishing many of the area's ski operations.
The Banff Ski Club cut the first ski runs at Mt. Norquay in 1926 (the first rope tow was installed in 1941). Skoki Lodge, Canada's first backcountry ski chalet, was opened by members of the Banff Ski Club just beyond the Lake Louise Ski Resort in 1931, and is still in operation today. The first ski runs were cut at the Lake Louise Ski Resort in the late 1930s.
If you're wondering about Sunshine Village, in the late 1920s the Canadian Pacific Railway built a cabin for the Trail Riders of the Canadian Rockies on the site of the present-day Sunshine Mountain Lodge. And while skiers had already been exploring the Sunshine area (and noted it for its superb skiing terrain), it wasn't until 1934 that Jim Brewster, President of the Brewster Transport Company, leased the CPR cabin and hosted his first paying guests.
Since these early days, skiing has grown into a popular sport and visitors come from all over the world to experience the vast ski and snowboard terrain and incredible scenery of Banff National Park. Come see it for yourself and ski a little ways through history!
Why Ski in Banff National Park?
Because Mother Nature thought you might want to be on the top of the world.
The best thing about it? You have the chance to ride the slopes of three different ski areas, all sitting within the boundaries of a protected playground – Banff National Park. Local ski operations pride themselves in offering world-class skiing and snowboarding amongst the beautiful peaks and valleys of Canada's flagship national park, and there's no better time to take it in than now.
Access to the ski areas is made easy with local accommodations in Banff and Lake Louise, public transportation options, equipment rentals and ski lessons. All you need to do is show up, legs ready for some champagne powder and sweet slopes.
What You'll Need
Banff National Park has everything you need to get out on the slopes, whether you've never clipped into bindings before or you'd rather leave your personal ski gear at home!
Equipment: Skis, poles, boots, snowboards, and helmets can all be rented from each of the ski areas (see Mt. Norquay, Sunshine Village and the Lake Louise Ski Resort) and in the Town of Banff.
Ski Lessons: Whether you're a beginner or an advanced skier, ski lessons at Mt. Norquay, Sunshine Village or the Lake Louise Ski Resort will help you to improve your skills and tackle new terrain.

Incubating Innovation for Rural Electrification: Virtual roundtable
- Starts
- 1:00PM, 30 January 2014
- Ends
- 5:00PM, 30 January 2014
- Location
- Online
Achieving the goal of universal access to electricity requires overcoming challenges posed by increasing demand from existing consumers, as well as the fast growing un-electrified population of the developing world - especially in Sub-Saharan Africa.
It is crucial to enable the private sector to provide off-grid energy services to complement the ongoing public sector efforts to expand grids in rural areas.
The reduced cost, broad scale, improved usability and integrated mobile-enabled services it would afford, will enable the development of new renewable energy solutions for generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. These new factors have led to the emergence of commercially viable business models for off-grid energy supply and of a handful of social enterprises in Africa, South Asia and the Caribbean. While these developments raise much interest and hope, achieving scale is critical to the goal of providing universal energy access and reducing extreme poverty while addressing the challenges posed by climate change.
Launched a year ago, the Incubating Innovation for Rural Electrification Initiative seeks to identify approaches to enable private sector engagement, and surface commercially viable business models. As part of this initiative, an online collaboration platform was created to enable knowledge and experience sharing and which now brings together more than 600 members from across the world. This process of consultation led to the development of the 'Anchor-Business-Community (ABC) model for private sector led off-grid electrification' and the identification of key pillars to support a larger role for the private sector. We thank all stakeholders for joining the platform, e-discussions and webinars, since the first virtual roundtable held in November 2012.
A second virtual roundtable takes place on January 30, 2014. Participants will revisit the challenges, solutions and innovations that have been discussed over the past year, share recent developments and discuss ways forward.

A Big Foot carcass is on tour with the man who said he shot the 800-lb beast, none other than the infamous Big Foot hunter Rick Dyer. Dyer's Big Foot stories have been debunked to the point that he finally had to admit he donned a gorilla suit for one of the Big Foot hoaxes he conjured up in the past, according to ABC News on Feb. 23.
Despite his previous hoax, this time is different, which is what Dyer wants you to believe. The dead Big Foot he is taking on tour in a big pine box is the real deal. He is going under the old adage that "seeing is believing" and he is bringing his proof in the form of a big dead body of a Big Foot.
Not only does Dyer want to show everyone that Big Foot does exist, he wants everyone to pay to be able to see this for themselves. While Dyer has pulled some fast ones in the past, this time he knows people will find he is credible in delivering Big Foot on this tour.
Dyer named his dead Big Foot "Hank" and he is dragging Hank across country and Monday Feb. 24, Dyer and Hank are at the Alamo Drafthouse Theatre in Katy, Texas. They will move to the Drafthouse Theater in Houston on Tuesday. Believe it or not, Dyer and Hank have sold out the house at both places.

I would probably carry, however I would also understand that if found out I would be terminated under this clause or possibly another one they like better. It is up to lawyers and judges to determine what it means. You may or may not be able to win a judgement in a civil court after the dust settles, however you will still be unemployed.
My company has an equally ambiguous policy statement on "weapons". No unauthorized weapons on company property. They neglect to tell us who may authorize weapons per company policy. My manager says we are authorized. Do I know that won't hold up, sure I do. That's how it goes.

His Father's Suitcase
Earlier this afternoon, I watched the webcast of Orhan Pamuk's Nobel Lecture in Literature. Pamuk gave his lecture in Turkish and was a rather poor speaker. Even though he was reading it from his notes, he wasn't fluent and several times repeated his words and sentences. He may have been nervous. Overall, I must say I was disappointed.
The texts of Pamuk's lecture, entitled Babamın bavulu (My Father's Suitcase) in 5 languages are available here.
As you know, the question we writers are asked most often, the favourite question, is; why do you write? I write because I have an innate need to write! I write because I can't do normal work like other people. I write because I want to read books like the ones I write. I write because I am angry at all of you, angry at everyone. I write because I love sitting in a room all day writing. I write because I can only partake in real life by changing it. I write because I want others, all of us, the whole world, to know what sort of life we lived, and continue to live, in Istanbul, in Turkey. I write because I love the smell of paper, pen, and ink. I write because I believe in literature, in the art of the novel, more than I believe in anything else. I write because it is a habit, a passion. I write because I am afraid of being forgotten. I write because I like the glory and interest that writing brings. I write to be alone. Perhaps I write because I hope to understand why I am so very, very angry at all of you, so very, very angry at everyone. I write because I like to be read. I write because once I have begun a novel, an essay, a page, I want to finish it. I write because everyone expects me to write. I write because I have a childish belief in the immortality of libraries, and in the way my books sit on the shelf. I write because it is exciting to turn all of life's beauties and riches into words. I write not to tell a story, but to compose a story. I write because I wish to escape from the foreboding that there is a place I must go but – just as in a dream – I can't quite get there. I write because I have never managed to be happy. I write to be happy.

Support your local roller girls!
26 July 2014
If you're a local resident of Brighton, or even if you're just passing through, there's a Brighton based all-female, all-skates-all-the-time group that you simply have to see…
Roller derby has taken the world by storm. This quad skate-based sport started in America. In its most recent resurgence, the sport began to really flourish and now, with 1,250 amateur leagues worldwide and a World Cup under its belt (with another due on December of this year), this exciting athletic sport will captivate you. Somewhere between the grace of an ice skater, the strategic smarts of a chess player and the muscle of a rugby athlete lies the roller girl; indeed, this sport is most famous for its female teams which is contrary to almost every other sport out there. In roller derby, it's the female teams that dominate the track.
You don't have to look too far nowadays to find a roller derby team and Brighton is no different.
Brighton's resident team, Brighton Rockers Roller Derby, will be putting on an open bout, inviting the public to see them play against opponents Croydon Roller Derby "for a southern showdown".
The event is happening at the Dolphin Leisure Centre. Doors open at 2.30pm with the game starting at 3pm.
For more information, and to buy tickets, go to: http://www.brightonrockers.com/#!events/c19mh
Good luck, girls!
Getting to support your local roller girls:
The event won't be in Brighton as Brighton Rockers are currently seeking a venue to call their home, but is only a short train ride away.
