Finger millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.) is the primary food source for millions of people in tropical dry land regions of the world. Development of efficient and genotype-independent tissue regeneration system is an essential prerequisite for successful production of transgenic plants. In this direction we established efficient reproducible protocols for in vitro plant regeneration and genetic transformation in finger millet using PDH45 as a candidate gene to develop transgenic Finger millet for salinity tolerance by Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer method (in vitro method) by using actively dividing embryogenic calli which obtained from Finger millet seeds. Here the seed calli was co cultivated with Agrobacterium Plasmid carrying binary vector pCAMBIA construct containing PDH45 candidate gene, nptII gene as bacterial selection marker, hptII gene as plant selectable marker, and GUS reporter gene driven by CaMV 35S promoter. The co cultivated callus was regenerated in half strength MS media with 0.5 mg.L−1BA, 3.0 mg.L−1 2, 4-D, and hygromycin antibiotic supplemented with acetosyringone (100 100 g.mL−1), a potent inducer of virulence genes. Successful transformation at callus stage was initially confirmed by GUS histochemical assay. And by PCR amplification genomic DNA of putative transformed calli showed positive for hptII primers. And the results by RT-PCR showed that the level of transcripts overexpression in transformed calli was relatively higher than nontransformed control calli. Putative regenerated transgenic were confirmed by PCR amplifying the genomic DNA of putative transformed plants.

interesting, for all the negative rhetoric over on the reintegration thread, looks like so far it's a majority for reintegration. my suspicion is that it's simply one or 2 highly vocal/motivated individuals with a lot of time on their hands trying to game the thread with a bunch of posts to make it look like an overwhelming opposition. Silent majority? who knows, will be interesting to see what develops.

Hot answers tagged delegate
As James mentioned, your main mistake is that you are using Page.Header.Controls. It is much simplier: this.Controls works like a charm. If it will not work, you should then check your delegate control declaration XML code. It should look like this: <Control Id="AdditionalPageHead" Sequence="1000" ControlSrc="~/_controltemplates/MyCompany/...
Hm. What I would do is do the work in CreateChildControls. Have it just add the two LiteralControls to the this.Controls collection. Then, add your ASCX to the AdditionalPageHead delegate control via your Feature. (step 33 in that article you linked to). There is a reason (and at this time in the morning I can't remember what it is), but the Page.Header ...
I used this guide by Chris O'Brien and found it very clear and simple. The MSDN article is also a reasonable reference. If you're planning on adding your own delegate controls to a master page or page layout, there is some good advice here from Brendon Schwartz.
Check out this article from Randy Drisgill. It's exactly what you need. Add the s4-notdlg css class to each div you want to hide in dialogs. http://blog.drisgill.com/2009/11/sp2010-branding-tip-2-custom-master.html
Was your code compiled for 64-bit?
I think the error message states that your UserControl (CustomNavUserControl.ascx) does not implement IHierarchicalDataSource. So your code behind file (CustomNavUserControl.ascx.cs) of your UserControl must implement this interface.
Found the answer: The problem really was that the exception was being thrown within the delegate. Hence the FeatureActivated just ran smoothly and the feature seemed activated. Fortunately SPLongOperation can be instantiated with a Page: new SPLongOperation(Page page) - problem is that in a Feature Receiver i don't have this.Page. I found the beautiful ...
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn168907.aspx states: SP.ClientContext.executeQueryAsync( succeededCallback , failedCallback ) So in both your examples you are referencing a function (callback) as parameter. The only difference being the declaration of the function. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/...
You've almost got it... you have to write an expression in that condition that evaluates to TRUE/FALSE. So something like testProp == 'something'
Take a look at this blog. In the section marked SharePoint Exception Handling: If you only catch and log the exception without throwing the SPException then the feature will complete the requested feature activation or de-activation (which ever the user is currently requesting) instead of aborting the feature activation or de-activation.
FeatureActivated is an asynchronous event that happens after the feature was activated. I know of no way to change the activation status except deactivating (SPFeature.Remove(id)) the feature programmatically, but not sure thats what you want...
Have you added a SafeControl for your WebControl? (If you check the ULS it should say that in plain English :-)
Try registering OWSSVR.DLL file located under ISAPI folder under 12-hive (MOSS 2007) or SharePoint root (Sharepoint 2010) folder. It is a COM library, you need to register using "REGSVR32 'FULL PATH TO DLL' command.
I've been away from this for a while, but my solution was this - I was running a console app with SharePoint client dlls in MOSS. It's just not supported.
If you are not seeing any exception on site load then I think you control is working fine, remove the dll from GAC / BIN and see it shoulf throw an error. Sometimes this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock doesn't work in Server control, please try using this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript instead. Also, see the source code of the page to ...
Make your ShowRibbonControl class a public class. That will make the difference and it will start working and will hit to the OnLoad method.
Please check your web.config to see if your SafeControl entry is really inserted and specifies the correct assembly and class. I didn't understand from your description what you did to add it. A missing or incorrect SafeControl entry will most likely be the cause of the control not being used. BTW, if this is the case, you can also see it in the ULS log. ...
I show you my custom search small input box. These is my Elements.xml: <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/"> <Control Id="SmallSearchInputBox" Sequence="25" ControlSrc ="~/_controltemplates/Piaggio.Dealer.Portal/SmallSearchInputBoxDelegateControl.ascx"> </Control> </Elements> and these is part of ...
Are you sure the feature isnt still activated on Site scope? That would explain why you see it twice. Another thing to try is to force all sites to flush object cache under _LAYOUTS/objectcachesettings.aspx
I havent used properties in delegates in a long time, but dont you need to set the value in your control? <Property Name="Theme">MyValue</Property>
Nevermind. I found a custom HTTP Module that was forcing a redirect. Have to watch out for these!
i havent tested this, but as long as your delegate control is placed in partially trusted location (bin) and not global assembly cache (GAC) i cant see why it shouldnt work without an IISRESET. But i would have to test it to be sure. EDIT: ok chris piped in with his answer while i was writing this. He sounds kind of convincing, so he might have a point :-) ...
Working with delegate controls is just one of the main developer changes which requires an IISReset or recycling the app pool for the current site unfortunately. This is because SharePoint agressively caches a great deal of "infrequently changing" data for performance. Sorry, can't help on your other question.

Leather tanning has been a Moroccan industry for more than one thousand years. One tannery that is still in operation in Fes dates back to the 9th century. In the marketplaces of any Moroccan city, you'll find shops displaying thousands of babouches (traditional soft slippers), wallets, bags, jackets, and much more.
Another typical example of Moroccan leatherwork is the pouf, a soft, versatile piece of furniture that can be used as an ottoman, an informal stool, or extra seating for parties. It's densely packed, so it won't collapse when you sit on it. The hides are dried in sunlight, which can add slight variations that give each piece of leather its own unique character.
Not available for shipment outside of the 48 contiguous United States.
Handmade in Morocco. Goatskin leather filled with a blend of recycled cotton. 14"H x 20" diameter.

Miami Dolphins: Roth's groin injury is news to Sparano
It's not correct to characterize this as a controversy.
Not yet.
For the moment, let's just call it some sort of miscommunication.
Yesterday, Tony Sparano said that Matt Roth was working on the side, and had been placed on the active PUP list, because of an illness that contributed to failing the conditioning test.
Last night, Roth's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said on WSVN-7 that Roth had a groin strain. This would be more of a concern because Roth nursed a groin injury throughout last season. Rosenhaus indicated that he had communicated about this information with trainer Kevin O'Neill and GM Jeff Ireland.
After today's morning practice, Sparano said "this groin thing, that's the first that I've heard of that."
He said that Roth signed a statement before camp declaring that he had no illness and no injury.
Then Roth failed the conditioning test.
So, according to Sparano, they met twice, and the groin injury "wasn't what I was told was the reason for that performance."
Rather, "the conversation to me was that he was sick."
The team then directed Roth to get some medical testing, including blood work.
"We've just got to get to the bottom of it," Sparano said.
We'll see how Rosenhaus responds to this.
The agent is less influential at Dolphins camp than late last decade or even earlier this decade. He routinely had 15 or so clients (often a couple at the same position) and that made him a force. Now, for the moment, he has just five. His client base is spread more throughout the league, with several guys in Washington. He is more of a national presence these days, and less of a local one.
Still, he is based here, and has a media platform here every Sunday night, and that means the Dolphins still have to deal with flareups on occasion.
This one doesn't seem major, but it made for an entertaining press conference today.
Thank you to Lane, a reader, for suggesting this video. Fast-forward to 90 seconds in.

B9601-078: The Marketing of an American President
T - B Term, 02:15PM to 05:30PM
Location: URI 307
Instructor: Ellen Schapps
Prerequisite(s): B6601: Marketing Strategy, B6602: Managing Marketing Programs
In 1952, advertising guru Rosser Reeves convinced Dwight Eisenhower that airing TV commercials on popular programs would reach more voters than other forms of advertising. Eisenhower's opponent, Adlai Stevenson, in contrast, was quoted as saying, "The idea that you can merchandise candidates for high office like breakfast cereal is the ultimate indignity to the democratic process." Needless to say, he was a two-time loser to Eisenhower! Therefore, as with consumer product marketing, political advertising via television was initiated emphasizing the USP or "unique selling proposition," the key feature that would differentiate the product (candidate) from the competition.
This 6 week course will highlight the marketing principles and strategies utilized to run political campaigns in the U.S. Although the course primarily will focus on the stages of Presidential races, including polling, fundraising, communication strategies, media, and television commercial evaluation, the marketing techniques employed can be applied to congressional, state and local elections. Students will analyze campaign case studies, specifically from the 2008 Democratic Primary and general election, and are required to be prepared each class to discuss the above topics utilizing examples of marketing practices from the 2012 Presidential race or from campaigns of their choosing. Guest speakers will enhance the learning experience by providing their individual expertise on the specified topic. Regarding fundraising, for example, the New York Tri-State Finance Director for Obama for America will demonstrate the marketing tactics employed in that arena. Finally, there will be a team project where each group chooses any Presidential political campaign and analyzes the effectiveness of the communication strategies utilized for both the winner and loser.
Prerequisites: B6601 "Marketing Strategy" and B6602 "Managing Marketing Programs".

At the end of this month (and currently available for pre-order from Amazon.com), Cedille will release a new recording featuring one of their most adventurous artists, the violinist Jennifer Koh. The title of the album is Two x Four. The first number refers to the fact that, on all of the tracks, Koh is performing with her mentor, Jaime Laredo, known for his trio with pianist Joseph Kalichstein and cellist (and wife) Sharon Robinson. (In addition, both Laredo and Robinson are now members of the string faculty at the Cleveland Institute of Music.) The "Four" in the title is the number of compositions performed on the album.
For all four of those pieces, Koh and Laredo perform as soloists with the Curtis 20/21 Ensemble, a resident chamber orchestra at the Curtis Institute of Music. The conductor is Vinay Parameswaran. As might be guessed from its name, the ensemble's repertoire covers the 20th and 21st centuries. However, Two x Four seems to have been conceived as a "response" to the "call" of what is probably the best known concerto for two violins, Johann Sebastian Bach's BWV 1043 in D minor. Thus, the album begins with this "vestige" from the eighteenth century and then hurtles the listener into three compositions from the recent past.
Of the remaining three pieces, only one is from the twentieth century, "Echorus," which Philip Glass composed in 1995 to be played by Edna Mitchell and Yehudi Menuhin. This makes Glass sort of the "grand old man" of the album, rubbing one shoulder with Bach (not inappropriately, since the basic structure of "Echorus" is a chaconne) and the other with two 21st-century composers, Anna Clyne and David Ludwig. Both of these pieces were composed for performance by Koh and Laredo. In reading some of the press accounts of these works, I found that both compositions were referred to as "double concertos," reinforcing the proposition that this music may be taken as a "response" to the "call" of Bach.
If so, then the response, indeed, comes from a great distance. It is not hard to imagine BWV 1043 having emerged from Bach's jamming with his Collegium Musicum buddies at the Café Zimmermann near the main market square in Leipzig. However, there is little sense of jamming in Clyne's 2012 "Prince of Clouds;" nor is it clear whether or not Clyne was inspired by Charles Baudelaire calling the albatross a "prince of clouds" in his Fleurs du mal (flowers of evil). Nevertheless, the music shares the calculated moodiness of Baudelaire's poetry and the somewhat edgy textures that emerge through the interplay of the two soloists with the string ensemble.
Ludwig's composition, also composed in 2012, is entitled Seasons Lost. While it has been called a concerto and might seem to suggest Antonio Vivaldi's cycle of four concertos, one for each of the seasons of the year, it is better considered as an integrated suite in four movements, each of which is named for one of the seasons. The title refers to how global climate change has undermined the conditions that distinguish those seasons, suggesting that the very identify of each of the seasons has now been lost. There is no question that this makes for a powerful political statement. Whether or not Ludwig's music enhances the impact of that statement, however, is debatable, even in the sensitive interpretation of that music on this recording.
I thus found it interesting that "Echorus" should stand as a refuge of serenity, intervening between the intensity-without-referent of "Prince of Clouds" and the efforts of Seasons Lost to contribute to the debate over climate change. Perhaps this has to do with Glass being more sympathetic to Bach's practices of jamming, through which compositions such as his concertos would emerge, even if "Echorus" shows no more evidence of jamming than "Prince of Clouds" did. Nevertheless, Glass has always been a composer for whom making music involves engagement through playing instruments before committing to putting marks on paper. In is unclear whether either Clyne or Ludwig shares that worldview. However, if may be the worldview of 21st-century music making, in which case Two x Four may tell us a lot about the context in which composers like Clyne and Ludwig do their work.

I'm trying to package MATLAB for internal distribution, but this could apply to any piece of software with the same architecture. In fact, I'm packaging multiple releases of MATLAB to be installed concurrently. Key things
- Very large installation size (~4 GB)
- Composed of a core, and several plugins (toolboxes)
Initially, I created a single "source" package (matlab2011b) that builds several .debs (mainly matlab2011b-core and matlab2011b-toolbox-* for each toolbox). The
debian/rules file is just the standard
dh $@
There is no Makefile; only copying files. I use a number of
debian/*.install files to specify files to copy from a copy of an installation to /usr/lib/.
The problem is, every time I build the thing (say, to make a correction to the core package), it recopies every file listed in the
*.install file to e.g
debian/$packagename/usr/ (the build phase), and then has to bundle that into a .deb file. It takes a long time, on the order of hours, and is doing a lot of extra work.
So my questions are:
- Can you make
dh_installdo a hardlink copy (like
cp -l) to save time? (AFAICT from the man page, no.) Maybe I should just get it to do this in the Makefile? (That's gonna be a big Makefile.)
- Can you make debuild only rebuild .debs that need rebuilding? Or specify which .debs to rebuild?
- Is my approach completely stupid? Should I break each of the toolboxes into its own source package too? (I'll have to do some silly templating or something, because there's hundreds of them. :/)

"MRSA is a four-letter 'word' no healthcare worker wants to hear. What exactly is it? How does it spread, and how can it affect my laundry operation? Does my staff need to take any special precautions? Should I be concerned about my workers unknowingly taking it home to their families?"Equipment Manufacturing: Dan Goldman, Wascomat Laundry Equipment, Inwood, N.Y.
MRSA and "stat" are both four-letter words familiar in the healthcare industry, and both call for immediate action.
Like other kinds of bacteria, MRSA frequently lives on the skin and in the nose without causing health problems. It's only a problem when it enters the body.
Growing up in the early '70s, I would often come down with impetigo during the winter wrestling season. This common skin infection spread easily on the wrestling mat, but antibacterial soap and my youthful immune system generally took care of it in short order.
Fast-forward to 2009 and a case report of a 68-year-old Type 2 diabetes patient who had to have his leg amputated after contracting impetigo. He was in the hospital for an unrelated matter when his leg became gangrenous. Has impetigo become stronger? Have we become weaker? Yes, and yes.
According to an article in an October 2007 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), "The over prescription of antibiotics over the past 40 years combined with the aging of the population are the recipe for these 'Super Bugs' mutating and becoming more resistant to conventional treatments."
In Europe, the RABC (Risk Analysis and Biocontamination Control) system has implemented measures to promote optimum hygiene of the laundered textiles and to reduce the risk of infection to patients and staff handling the linens. Even with this, the human factor is still the most difficult to control.
Landry Guillochon, a colleague from Electrolux (Wascomat in North America), maintains that the barrier concept is the only solution to consider. It naturally enforces the implementation and consistent application of good hygiene practices, he says.
Barrier washers are built into a barrier wall through which neither "bugs" nor operators can pass. They're equipped with two doors — one for the loading of dirty linen, the other for unloading of clean linen.
With the barrier concept, you can be sure that an operator who has just loaded dirty linen isn't going to unload clean, wet linen without taking the necessary precautions. You will be certain that the laundry cart used for clean linen isn't the same one used to transport potentially contaminated linen.
Regularly washing hands and using sterile gloves will prevent the spread of MRSA, but much thought and planning must be given to the design and work flow of the laundry and linen storage.Linen Supply/Commercial Laundering: Duane Farrington, RLLD, Hancock Co. Laundry, Weirton, W.Va.
We've had to face many infection control issues the past several years, but I'd say that MRSA has gotten the most attention recently. Those of us who process linen for healthcare facilities have first-hand experience with MRSA and the steps it takes to control it.
The first controls to be put into place are actually the easiest and probably most effective.Education — Your staff should know what MRSA is and what is recommended to control it. As an employer, you should be aware of any MRSA cases diagnosed within your staff. Proper wound care is important in controlling this type of bacteria, and education can be your most effective tool.Environmental Control — Proper cleaning can help control the spread of MRSA, but please don't take this step lightly. Use a good cleaner or disinfectant. Your daily regimen should include cleaning of floors and wiping down all workstations. Remember to document these tasks, as this information can be used to isolate areas that may warrant additional attention. Locker rooms got a lot of attention when we started to hear more about MRSA. The same could hold true of laundries.Standard Precautions — Make sure that your facility uses them. Workers sorting soiled linen should be wearing proper personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent the MRSA bacteria from coming into contact with clothing. This will help to eliminate the potential for spreading it and taking it home. Last but not least, wash hands frequently. No matter where you go, there is always the potential for spreading germs.Equipment Distribution: Bill Blumel, MHS, Reliable Equipment & Engineering, Ogden, Utah
Dealing with MRSA is all about implementing infection control procedures that are already established by the laundry facility staff. This requires detailed communication from the laundry "customer" source that may or may not be a known healthcare patient.
Staff should also be aware that MRSA could be spread without symptoms among personnel when infection control is not implemented in all washroom areas.
In all situations, washroom personnel should handle MRSA-contaminated laundry in dissolvable, plastic isolation bags. These bags should be placed in a washer-extractor programmed with a high-temperature "kill" wash program and using the recommended chemicals, including bleach.
Whether the laundry is post-sorted or pre-sorted, there are multiple "kill" procedures ongoing in the washroom equipment, the dryers, and the ironing equipment and processes.
The usual hand-washing techniques utilizing disinfectants and antiseptic soap for at least 10 seconds can bring the spread of MRSA among laundry staff under immediate control. Alcohol-based hand-cleaning products are also effective.
Workers should be reminded to clean their hands when arriving for work; before and after eating at work; after using the toilet; after loading soiled laundry in the washroom; before leaving work; and upon arriving home. There should also be a policy that laundry staff members are not to wear work clothes home, especially if you operate a healthcare laundry facility.
Finally, ongoing housekeeping efforts that are uncompromising will also minimize the spread of MRSA.
Remove debris from all areas of the facility as soon as possible. Clean all surfaces, especially in the restrooms and designated eating areas, regularly. And never allow employees to eat outside the areas you designate.Consulting: Tom Mara, Victor Kramer Co., Oceanport, N.J.
When Bobby Kutteh, president and CEO of the Crothall Services Group, recently asked the company's managers of central laundries and on-premise laundries about what "kept them up at night," their reply was universal. MRSA and the safety of patients and employees, both in customer hospitals and in Crothall's laundry facilities, is the No. 1 issue.
So, the company embarked on a mission to incorporate a MRSA safety plan into its comprehensive safety and training program.
Victor Kramer Co., Crothall's consulting division, contributed to its development. Upon its completion, as part of our operational surveys at healthcare clients, we review the safety and training programs at hospital laundries and recommend changes, as needed, to ensure they're in compliance with the latest methods and procedures for dealing with the threat of MRSA.
In the event one of our clients doesn't have a comprehensive safety and training program, we offer our consulting services to assist in developing one.
Since preventing MRSA is much easier than treating it once a patient or employee is infected, Crothall's safety program focuses on prevention — the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, eye protectors, shoe covers, gowns and aprons; employing Standard and Universal Precautions; proper hand-washing techniques before and after the workday; frequent cleaning of all surfaces in the soil-sort department; daily cleaning of all soiled- and clean-linen transport carts; recordkeeping and incident reporting as part of an exposure control plan; and training.
With the use of proper washing and finishing methods and procedures, we concluded that the potential for acquiring MRSA essentially could be isolated to the soil-sort and storage areas, and to the collection, handling and washing of soiled linen.
But we also concluded that to best protect hospital patients, employees and the families of employees, the training program had to put significant emphasis on proper hand-washing techniques, including washing with the "right" soap and using paper towels to dry hands.
We're pleased that implementing safety and training programs has resulted in zero incidents of MRSA within Crothall's group of healthcare laundry facilities.Click here for Part 1.

We've heard legends of training cats to use the toilet and flush, but our cat wears the pants at home... and it's training us to not bother training it. But if you can't train the cat, you can at least "train" the litter box. The Self-Washing Self-Flushing Cat Box ($259) is as convenient as a potty-trained cat, but without it scratching you for the first few tries.

Indie superstar, Minecraft, has sold more than 10 million copies according to Mojang customer support manager Marc Watson. Watson tweeted the news, with the milestone including just copies from PC, Mac and Linux - making it the seventh best-selling PC game of all time - a huge, huge milestone.
The game is also available on Android, Xbox 360 and iOS, so these numbers would be much higher if the extra platforms were counted. The developer has said that the Xbox 360 version alone has sold more than six million copies as of last month. Developer Jens Bergensten believes that across all platforms, sale numbers on Minecraft was around 20 million in January of this year.


text: Felida — Some lucky cats and dogs will have full bellies thanks to the fundraising efforts of a brother and sister who asked for pet food donations instead of birthday presents this year. Felida Elementary School fourth-grader Jared Wallingford and Thomas Jefferson Middle School sixth-grader Alicia Wallingford collected more than 1,700 pounds of pet food for Pet Aid of Washington and the Humane Society for Southwest Washington. Its the fourth year the Wallingford family has gathered donations for the Julie Reamer Memorial Pet Food Drive, named after their friend and neighbor who died in 2009. In its first year, the family donated 200 pounds of food; the total has increased each year since. Jared's birthday was Feb. 1 and Alicia's was March 5. The kids got help from peers who competed classroom by classroom to see which could collect the most pet food.

Tom, you are probably going to be sick of seeing these types of emails as I'm sure your inbox was full of them after Saturday night. But dude, here is the thing, I don't think Canelo Alvarez won that fight against Erislandy Lara and I know I am not alone in that thinking. How anybody in their right mind could score that fight 117-111 or 9 rounds for Canelo is outrageous! Was that judge drunk or high on drugs - or both? I know you've been around, but I've seen a few fights myself and this sort of thing is just crazy. These judges with these scores are ruining boxing! C.J. Ross. Lisa Giampa and now Levi Martinez! What the hell man? How did you see it and what do you think about these whack-a-doo scores by these whack-a-doo judges? Jeremy, Culver City, CA
No doubt it was a close fight because of the lack of activity and punches thrown. I thought the fight was boring and there was so little to choose from that it was like trying to tell the difference between "normal" bananas and "organic' bananas at the grocery store (that still perplexes me). Anyways, I had it 115-113 for Canelo. Bottom line is that he landed the harder shots and he tried to at least make the fight. He came forward and chased the runner Lara around for 36 tedious minutes. I can see a 114-114 draw as a good score or 115-113 for Lara is also acceptable. Anything on either side of 115-113 for either guy is the wrong score and is off base. You are not alone in your thinking Jeremy. Many respectable scribes scored it for Lara while it seems just as many respectable scribes had it for Canelo. It was a close fight. The problem is that the 117-111 score handed in by Martinez was incompetent in my view. That means he scored 9 rounds for Canelo which is just way, way off the mark. Canelo won 7 rounds - at best. I have no idea what Martinez was watching just as I have no idea what C.J. Ross and Lisa Giampa were watching when they handed in "whack-a-doo" scores. I don't think it is corruption or that they have been paid off - my personal feeling is they are incompetent and not capable of scoring a prizefight. The thing is, Las Vegas is just a weird, weird place when it comes to boxing judges and scoring fights. I don't know if it's the lights or the slots or the heat - but when judges score fights there they seem to lose their minds. You are correct, however, when you say that these judges are destroying boxing. The sport has enough credibility problems as it is and these "whack-a-doo' scores are just driving more nails into boxing's coffin. It would help in these high-profile pay-per-view events if someone would get knocked out, but that is the exception rather than the rule. So, get used to it - as I say it gets worse as time goes on. I hate to be a skeptic, but I don't see it ever getting better. My own personal feeling is that these "whack-a-doo" scores and distance fights are why pay-per-views sell so poorly.
Hi T.K., I only have one question man. I know Canelo is not going to give Lara a rematch - so what's next for him? - Bobby, Boston, Mass.
Well, the thing is, Mayweather, Pacquiao and Cotto will all be gone sooner rather than later. Have a look around and there are very, very few remaining fighters that can carry a pay-per-view event. The money is in PPV - and in boxing you have to follow the money as first and foremost the sport is a business. Canelo is the heir apparent and the anointed one that everyone looks to when it comes to the future of boxing. I can't say as I disagree with anyone who believes in that notion. The bottom line is that Canelo is good for the bottom line because people will pay to see him and with his youth and obvious skills he will be around for a long time to come. Having said all of that, I would say Canelo will likely end up with Miguel Cotto next. Make the fight at 155 or so for Cotto's middleweight championship and that fight sells out Madison Square Garden, the MGM Grand Garden or any other "garden" you can think of. It's a legitimate fight, it pits Mexico vs. Puerto Rico which is always big business. Cotto is on the way out and this would be a colossal payday for him on the way out the door. If Cotto loses, well, he loses to a younger guy on the way up. Canelo would be expected to win so if he did it would only add to his resume and solidify him as the one that will carry boxing into the future. I don't think you'll see him against Gennady Golovkin as Oscar De La Hoya suggested. Chavez, Jr. is too big now, Mayweather is unlikely to want a rematch as he already gave the kid a boxing lesson once. Who else is there? The only fight that makes sense to me is Cotto.
Just curious about something. I bought your book and it was good BTW. So I respect your opinion and know you have been around a long time, so what is your take on steroids in boxing? Do you think guys are still using? Tell me all you know! - Keith, Sarasota, Florida
Well, I have to admit that I have my own views and opinions on steroids and their role in boxing. My own personal feeling is that in the 80s and 90s their use was absolutely rampant. I think most of the top guys were "juiced" to the eyeballs. Even into the new millennium their use was overwhelming as far as I'm concerned. Have a look at some of the pictures in the old boxing magazines or the history books or Google some images. Bottom line is that many of the physiques of yesteryear were just freakish. The guys looked more like bodybuilders than boxers. They were as "shredded" or as "ripped" as many professional bodybuilders. Obviously I cannot "name names" due to legal concerns and liability worries - but like I said - my opinion is that most of the top guys were all using. You can draw your own conclusions, but Roy Jones, Jr. did test positive for steroids. Mike Tyson was admonished in one of his psychological reviews to avoid steroids. Several of the top fighters worked with pro bodybuilders for their strength and conditioning programs and their physiques seemed to mirror those of their mentors. Many have questioned the physiques of fighters from Evander Holyfield to Vinny Pazienza to Manny Pacquiao and wondered how they could have gained weight and maintained such awesome, muscular physiques - devoid of fat - as they moved up in weight. I have personal knowledge of some fighters that did use steroids as I'm sure do many other boxing scribes. It was a given in the 80s and 90s that if you wanted to be a top fighter that you had to use. That meant that most guys who you saw on TV back then were juiced up. Have a look at some of the shoulders and arms on some of those dudes from back in the day and there was no way that was done on a meat and potatoes diet. Thomas Hearns tried to accuse Ray Leonard of steroid use prior to their second fight and much was made of that accusation. As far as guys still using? I say absolutely it is still happening. It might not always be steroids but it's other "stuff" now. The drug testing is better now at the top levels, but club fighters and those in far flung areas and in other countries are still juiced to the max. The only way to rid boxing of PEDs is to conduct random testing all year long. That is not going to happen here in the "wild west" of sports and as a result guys are still going to get away with it. Lastly, I thought it was an interesting story when Wladimir Klitschko recently balked at the drug testing protocol that his upcoming challenger Kubrat Pulev suggested. The reaction of Klitschko and his camp seemed oddly defensive to me - but that's just my opinion. One last thing I will leave you with Keith - if it looks to good to be true and a bit freakish - then you can bet something is a little off there. It doesn't mean a fighter is using now - but it means he may have used at one time. The results of steroids will stay around a long, long time and for guys that have been around for many, many, many years - you can look up those names - they still look aesthetically impossibly good wouldn't you say?
So, I guess the latest is going to be that Manny Pacquiao fights Chris Algieri in November in Macao, China. Thoughts? - Lisa, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
The only thought I have on that fight is that I hope Chris Algieri gets paid. Pacquiao will lay a paint job on that kid and Freddie Roach knows it. Freddie already saw his guy Ruslan Provodnikov beat Algieri (though he was robbed of the decision) and he has twice the offensive fighter in Pacquiao than he does in Provodnikov. The deck in that fight is stacked in Pacquiao's favor and the latest rumor I hear is that Algieri is looking for more money than the $1.5 million he has been offered. Whatever the case, I suppose I'd want as much money as I could get if I was going to get in the ring with Pacquiao, too. My thoughts are that Pacquiao wins relatively easily and probably blackens up both of Algieris' eyes.

CHSAA statement
The Colorado High School Activities Association issued a statement on rescheduling games, even if it means some teams will play twice in one week. In part it said, "Sunday is not an option for games to be rescheduled per CHSAA bylaws. Teams will be allowed to reschedule games to Monday, even if it means playing two games in a week."
Read the full CHSAA statement here
Obviously we can't control the weather and even if we could, this would have been the week Holy Family athletic director Ben Peterson would have likely had his hands on the controls.
It was supposed to a week of celebration at the school, capped off with the annual homecoming game on Friday night against Mead. Now Peterson's athletic schedule has more red ink on it than a poorly filled out NCAA basketball bracket.
"It's ruined ... it's completely ruined, and there is nothing we can do about it right now," he said. "The kids have worked hard this week to make some of these things happen and now they are not happening.
"These are the cards we have been dealt and we just have to make the best of it now."
Peterson had a conversation with one of the football players who lives in Nederland and they were trying to figure out a way to get him to the game. The only option at the time was to go back up Trail Ridge Road through Estes Park and back down through Granby and take Interstate 70 back around.
As it stands, the Tigers will likely play on Monday at home against Mead. It's a prospect Peterson is not a huge fan of, but understands the safety concerns.
"We are hoping that CHSAA decides to put out some sort of statement, because I think it is going to be hard for a lot of those team to do anything, because they just don't have fields anymore, you know, there are just a lot of fields that are just ruined," said Peterson, who said he tried to reach people at the CHSAA to no avail. "I just don't want the kids affected the most, which are the ones up north to lose out on something.
"Even a Monday and Friday (games) next week isn't really fair to the kids."
At Broomfield, the Eagles were set to were originally set to play Loveland on Thursday and then got pushed back twice and will now play the Indians at 6 p.m. Monday at Elizabeth Kennedy Stadium.
Legacy's football game against Chaparral at Sports Authority Stadium in Parker was still on for 4 p.m. Friday, but that doesn't mean Lightning athletic director Kylie Russell hasn't had her share of problems elsewhere.
"They haven't got as much rain down south, so I think we should be OK," Russell said.
The Lightning cross country teams, scheduled to compete at the Liberty Bell Invitational in Littleton, were still a go on Friday and were able to because they are in the Adams 12 district. Broomfield and Holy Family also were scheduled to attend, but district regulations prohibited them from attending on a day when school was cancelled. Legacy's volleyball team will be at Eaglecrest for the Raptors Invite that was originally set for Friday and Saturday, but was condensed to just Saturday.

Back when I was an engineering student at the University of Michigan, some of my classmates passed around a petition that I found alarming at the time and have since recalled with great indignation. The statement, followed by a number of signatures, called for an immediate end to all communication courses for engineers. "We don't need writing or speaking classes," the author of the petition said, imploring a group of students to sign. "We're problem solvers."

National Night Out
Duarte's Night Out Against Crime!
National Night Out: Tuesday, August 4th, 2015
Plan to join neighbors throughout the community on Tuesday, Aug. 4 in celebration of Duarte's Night Out Against Crime in conjunction with the 34th Annual National Night Out. Last year Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies and firefighters, alongside Duarte Public Safety personnel and elected officials mingled with Duarte residents at 11 area parties.
Neighborhood Watch Blocks celebrated over barbecues, potlucks, ice cream socials, pool parties, and block parties. Duarte was one of over 15,000 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide who participated in National Night Out 2014.
This year the City of Duarte's National Night Out celebration will be celebrated at Encanto Park with a free BBQ dinner and an outdoor movie for all to enjoy. Duarte's Night Out Against Crime is a great way to start or reinvigorate your Neighborhood Watch Program and get acquainted with both new, and longtime neighbors.
We also will take this opportunity to give back to the less fortunate in our community. A canned food drive will be held in conjunction with National Night Out. Last year this effort generated over 500 canned and dry goods. Donations will be picked up and delivered to the nonprofit Duarte Community Service Council, which provides services to Duarte families in need.
This collaborative effort would not be possible without our Neighborhood Watch Volunteers, Target, L. A. County Fire, Nextdoor.com and our greatest supporter, the L. A. County Sheriff's Department.
Special Thanks to 2014 Participants
Call Aida Torres at (626) 359-5671 ext. 316 and learn about how you can participate in Duarte's Night Out Against Crime.

ATHENS, Ga. - In the second round of the 2014 NCAA Division I Women's Tennis Singles Championship, ASU sophomore Desirae Krawczyk fell to Hayley Carter of North Carolina 6-2, 6-2 on Thursday afternoon.
"It was a tough match today as Desirae (Krawczyk) ran up against a very good player in Hayley Carter who is playing really well," ASU head coach Sheila McInerney said. "Desirae (Krawczyk) got off to a good start unforced errors and while she did not play as well as she has been, give credit to Hayley (Carter) for her play."
Krawczyk fell in two identical sets after defeating Frances Altick of Vanderbilt 6-2, 7-5 the day prior in the first round.
The loss capped off the 2014 season for the Sun Devils -- a season that saw impressive wins during both the regular and post season from the senior-less squad.
"All in all, it has been a breakthrough year for Desirae (Krawczyk) and she needs to keep working hard and build off her progress," McInerney said.

Reviews for Meatball Sub Casserole
"3 cup baking dish?? Did you mean a 3 quart baking dish?"
"Yum, yum, yum! This was a huge hit at the "hotdish" potluck at our church. There was virtually nothing left to bring home; I don't think my husband even got a serving before it was all gone. I probably won't make this too often, as we're trying to eat healthier, but for special splurges it definitely is worth it."
"I too had to hunt down this recipe on the Internet. I'm glad it's here at TOH so I could save it. I have made this two times before. Each time I've used different sauces made by the same company, Balducci's out of Chicago. One sauce is a Vodka sauce and the other had a bit of a kick in flavor, it was their Arrabbiata sauce. This dish is easy to prepare and delicious to eat. Everyone I have served it to went back for seconds and thirds. I have also embellished the meatballs by using grass fed beef, ground pork and Italian sausage mixed. I also use a 9 x 13. Any meatballs left over are a bonus for a future dish."
"3 cup baking dish?"
"Jill the original recipe is awesome, you're right! Your post sent me on a hunt to find it & I did! They've renamed the recipe to Baked Simple Meatball Stroganoff."

Scott Porter: What do you feel are your greatest strengths?
D'Angelo McCray: I feel my biggest strengths are my versatility. I can play both sides of the ball. Offensively I am a great run blocker. I want to work on many things but I feel I have a lot of upside and can improve on my overall game as I continue to get better. Some teams still like me as a run stuffing DT.
Scott Porter: What are your goals for the NFL?
D'Angelo McCray: Right now my main focus is to get healthy. I want to get everything right so that once I get there I can be 100% and give it my best effort. Goals of mine are to be in the Pro Bowl and last a long time in this league.
Scott Porter: What do you feel are your greatest accomplishments?
D'Angelo McCray: Team wise I would say going to the Rose Bowl my Freshmen season. Coming out of high school I was a USA today All-American and not many people can say that. I was highly recruited and playing college football is an honor itself.
Scott Porter: What type of person is an NFL team getting in D'Angelo McCray?
D'Angelo McCray: They are getting a hard worker who can come in and play and learn. I am very coachable and I do the right things and make good decisions.
Scott Porter: What hobbies do you have off the field?
D'Angelo McCray: I like to download music. While in school I didn't have a lot of free time so I am now getting use to a little more time to spend on myself outside of football but I like to hang out at the lounge. When I am back home in Florida I like to hang out at the beach. I watch a lot of movies.
Scott Porter: What are you looking forward to the most about your opportunity in the NFL?
D'Angelo McCray: From day one I just want to embrace the moment. Take it all in, it is an honor to be this far. After that I am looking forward to getting to work and get on the field as soon as possible and show what I can do to help a team win.
Scott Porter: What got you interested in playing football?
D'Angelo McCray: I think when I hit the middle school was when I got real interested in pursuing football and started to get real serious about it. At first I was a better basketball player, but at 6'2" I fit more into the football mold because of the height factor in basketball. My coach really helped me and I progressed well. I got into college and hurt in college. I was a bit inpatient in college but I am here today and ready to fulfil my dream now.
Scott Porter: What do you feel will be the toughest adjustment from the college level to the NFL level?
D'Angelo McCray: I think the biggest adjustment will be the practice tempo. I hear speed is faster but in the NFL everything is always at full speed. Adjusting to a different level and how the NFL works compared to college will be a major adjustment that I will have to pick up on fast.

Sarawak, Malaysia: Adventures on the Island of Borneo - Page Three
What is Sarawak like?
The streets are crowded with cars, small trucks and motorbikes. The sidewalks are porticos, stuffed with vendors, sellers of all manner of goods. The interiors of the shops are dark, inhabited by Chinese men and young girls, silently waiting there for customers.
You walk beneath the ceilings of the stores around bins of spices, redolent strong curries, fragrant cloves, sacks of drived anchovies in various sizes, hardware, tools and chainsaw parts. Men squat on the floor, working on engines, or fixing tools.
Other men sit in front of open cases, selling mysterious bottles of remedies, unknown things are in those bottles, and little packets of strange elixirs. Most of the shopkeeps are Chinese.
In fact most of the signs above every doorway are in Chinese. Lun Fat Trading Co, Han Chu Manufacture. People gaze at their cellphones in the heat of the afternoon, sending text messages or talking quietly.
You pass by so many different types of stores all packed in close together. Men walk silently looking down at their phones, leaving the Friday prayers, wearing their skullcaps, waiting to light up a cigarette now that prayers are done.
The meats are laid out in big fatty strips, lying on a chest, flies buzzing on and off them, being shooed away by young boys. Chicken legs, yellow bright, are sitting in a container like pencils in a jar, another can contains severed chicken heads.
In a small town to the west of Kuching called Batanbong, we saw adult chickens packed into open crates, there was a little water in a bowl but it would have been hard for the birds to move that far to drink. Then another crate, this one with adolescent chickens, these teenagers were also packed mercilessly tight. And another with mere chicks, peeping, pecking, eating yellow powdery grain, a crate stuffed with chicks in the heat of the day.
A Walk Along the Kuching Waterfront
This stunning building is almost finished on the banks of the muddy Sarawak River in downtown Kuching. It's the new parliament building, as grand as a palace and something unlike anything you'd see in the US. We prefer our edifi to be blocky, and big, this one is grand, tall and soars toward the sky.
In this lovely city of 500,000, the riverbanks are for walking. I took a stroll there yesterday and approached a noodle vendor. She shooed me away, saying to sit over there and I'll make your noodles. No, I said, i want to watch you. So she taught me how she mixed the cold noodles with the spices, the sugar, the egg, the sprouts, and hotsauce and the chiles and stir fried them up for a glorious bowl of goodness.
I want to sell these noodles in my cafe but I can't imagine old cranky Dick the health inspector going for my big wok out there on Sugarloaf St. as I toss together fresh cooked orders of these delicious noodles. Oh well.
Then I strolled down along the brick walkway and watched long, long boats being rowed by enthusiastic cheering rowers, two by two, grunting and powering these colorful pointy boats through the muddy water. Clouds threatened above, and then, a torrent, and I retreated back to the noodle shop with cover, and a television playing a soap opera in Malay that no one paid attention to. The rowers got drenched, as did the coxswain, still yelling into his megaphone.
In Kuala Lumpur, Protests Over Fuel Prices
In a drenching rain we've arrived in Kuala Lumpur, a city of 4.5 million with a pulsing, oil-fueled heart. What's new since I was last here in 2006? More shopping. The names that rich Asians love, like Hugo Boss, Cartier, and Juicy Couture, all lined up here in the famous Golden Triangle, where the Grand Millenium is our home for the next two nights. In the lobby a woman in a full length chador waited silently while her husband negotiated with the concierge and her kids tumbled in and out of their strollers.
On the way in from the airport, Sara our guide told us that there used to be a rainy season here. But now 'with that global change stuff' there is no longer any discernable rainy or dry period. It's more like rain, and the 'moody season' as she describes it, where the sun doesn't shine much and it's dreary.
We had to pass through two checkpoints, manned by friendly police and we asked them why. They didn't answer specifically but we knew these are due to the big protests in the city over, guess what?, fuel prices. The price of gas here is extraordinarily low, about .85 a liter, and it's just been jacked up to $1.50 or so a liter, more like Europe. And the politicians are making a lot of hay by speaking at rallies decrying the hike and demanding that the taxes be lowered. The current prime minister, Abdullah, has decided to cut short his second five-year term in 2010, naming a successor already, even though the people vote their leader into office.
The outskirts of KL are dotted with endless rows of identical subdivisions, dreary modules that all look the same and appear to be located in the absolute middle of nowhere. I asked Sara who would want to live out here, and who is building them. She said they were 'semi-private' which must mean that the government subsidizes them. She said there is an emerging industrial area out here so the workers will live here.
The older apartments here and in Kuching have a coating of mold that shows their age. Many of the buildings have this grim patina, a coating of black mold that makes them look much older than they must really be. As the rain pounds down and the thunder roars, I can see why all of that mold builds up.
Letting Little Fish Nibble Your Skin is The Rage in Kuala Lumpur
"Have you been to the fish spa?" asked Sara, our guide. "Oh you've got to try it, I tell everyone." she said brightly. "In fact I am going there after I drop you off at the hotel!"
The fish spa, we learned, is a place called Kenko, on an upper floor of a Kuala Lumpur shopping mall. Here, tiny 'doctor fish' nibble at the dead skin on people's feet, and they also offer a full immersion fish spa, where you can have the two-inch fish munch on your body's dead skin from head to toe.
The fish spa trend is huge here with the thousands of Gulf states visitors, who also enjoy gender-segregated swimming pools and airport announcements in Arabic. KL and Malaysia is where Arabs come to have fun, and these spas are quite the hot ticket.
Sony immediately piped up and wanted to try the fish spa. I demurred, since I did have a foot massage at the music festival last night, and how much attention do my feet really need?

Port Tampa Bay continues its economic expansion at an unprecedented rate. Recently, it was announced that this southern Florida port would be partnering with a sister port in Colombia, South America. The Port of Baranquilla is widely regarded as a key Latin American port and the commercial relationship that will be fostered between Tampa Bay and Baranquilla is highly prized by both authorities. The Chief Executive Officer of Port Tampa Bay – Paul Anderson and his Colombian counterpart Rene F. Puche are excited at the prospect of working together for the common good. The agreement was signed on 1 April 2014. Many in the Tampa Bay region have long been calling for stronger economic ties with Latin American countries. As part of the ongoing economic development of Port Tampa Bay, this particular subject has gained tremendous traction in recent times. Of equal importance is the rapid growth and development of the Panama Canal -a key economic waterway for trade with Latin America.
Port of Baranquilla
The Port of Baranquilla – otherwise known as La Puerta de Oro de Colombia - serves as that country's first port. It is also the biggest industrial Caribbean Sea ports and ranks as the third in the Colombia in terms of sheer cargo volume. As the major commercial and industrial hub for the Caribbean region, the Port of Baranquilla covers the Magdalena River and the Caribbean Sea. It is an important and substantial gateway for tourism in the Caribbean islands. Baranquilla is a major economic hub for financial services, commerce, industry, logistics and fishing activity. The main industrial products include dairy products, beverages, construction materials, cement, metal working, pharmaceuticals, garments, boats and petrochemical products. Colombia is widely known for its massive exports of coffee, cotton and petroleum. Port Tampa Bay is naturally excited about partnering with such an important partner in the region. The sheer volume of traded materials between Colombia, the Caribbean and Tampa Bay is reason enough for celebration.
Trading Possibilities with the Sister Ports Agreement
Investors are able to trade in a wide range of markets, including the aforementioned commodities. As the most heavily traded commodity in the world, coffee is a major export from Columbia and the new partnership agreement between these two ports will generate a keen interest in trading activity. Other exports from Latin America include cocoa, petroleum, sugar and wheat. Futures contracts are one such trading option where commodities brokers and casual traders will be able to enjoy the newfound sister port relationship with Port Tampa Bay. These types of contracts expire at a future point in time and the prices are derived from the underlying product and the costs to expiry are factored in. They can be closed at any point before expiry. Other options to consider are rolling contracts. These are ideal for traders looking for short to medium term trading solutions in respect of commodities.
Mutually Beneficial Trade Agreement
The agreement that is now in place is an important one for the Port of Baranquilla since Port Tampa Bay is 4th on the list of Florida's largest ports with waterborne cargo valued at over $5 billion in 2012 and over $2 billion in containerized cargo value for 2012. The port is the ranking economic powerhouse in West Central Florida with over 100K jobs created and over $15 billion in sheer annual economic impact alone. Some 8 million consumers are served by the activities at Port Tampa Bay.

>Brookings Oregon News, Sports, & Weather | The Curry Coastal Pilot
It's time to list some of my favorite columns for the year.
The list is based on the columns I enjoyed writing the most and the feedback I received from readers (there's at least two of you out there).
"Secret Beach is not a secret" (July 2): I received a few emails chastising me about this one, which claimed that Secret Beach, the official name for Miner Creek beach north of Brookings, is not the secret spot some people think it is. I understand and can respect that position, but it's not one to which I subscribe. I'm not big on the whole "us versus them" mentality when it comes to bragging about our local beauty spots and sharing them with visitors.
"It's only 30 miles people!" (April 2): In this column I tackled the issue of taking short pleasure trips out of town, say to Gold Beach or Crescent City. The concept of driving more than 30 miles "just for fun" is foreign to some my neighbors. An acquaintance of mine said some Brookings residents declined to attend an event in Gold Beach simply because it was "too far away."
I don't get it. I'm always looking for excuses to get out of town. I must admit that the recession and the rising cost of gas has curtailed some of our outings. However, the Graves family doesn't skip trips simply because 30 miles is an inconvenience.
"Bravely entering the Jungle Book" (April 9): As you might guess, this was a column about my 8-year-old daughter Alia and her first foray into the world of community theater via Disney's "Jungle Book." She joined more than a dozen young actors who delighted audiences. Theater is a wonderful stage for our children to learn new skills that will serve them well in life.
"Seek solutions to homeless issues" (Sept. 3): On a more serious note, I wrote of homelessness in our area and the failed attempts to address it. Spurred in part by the cleanup of a homeless camping area at the south end of the Chetco River bridge, I wrote: "What is the ultimate solution to the chronic homelessness in our community? I don't have one. Rural towns and metropolitan centers across the nation are struggling to find one, and Curry County advocates for the homeless are doing all they can to simply feed, clothe and keep the homeless dry during the winter months."
I always like to offer some hint of optimism in my column, but came up short this time. In the end, I settled for this: "Perhaps there is no single solution. Perhaps its a combination of solutions. Perhaps all we can do is offer free food, sleeping bags and a kind word."
"Battling the meth monster" (May 14): I've addressed this issue over the years, but this time it hit closer to home when a drug bust involved a suspect house not more than a half a mile from my Harbor home. It was a sober reminder of the stranglehold that methamphetamine has on our community.
"Puppies on the hunt for litter" (Feb. 5): A mother and her 4-year-old daughter started a children's version of the volunteer trash collecting group known as the Trash Dogs. "Not only would it be a good way to get our children together for some fun, it would teach them the importance of keeping our area clean and tidy," the mother said.
"Plight of the zombie parents" (Sept. 10): This one, about sleep-deprived parents suffering through their childrens' first week back to school, struck a funny bone with several parents. It seems my wife and I were not alone in our misery.
Thank you all for reading At the Helm, and for the comments you've shared.
Happy New Year!
