STANFORD -- Kevin Hogan hasn't missed a game due to injury -- hasn't even missed a meaningful series, in fact -- since he took over as Stanford's starting quarterback late in the 2012 season.
If that should change this season, Evan Crower is ready. Finally.
The redshirt junior has made significant strides in his understanding of the playbook and established himself as "a guy who's ready to play for us," according to coach David Shaw.
Crower, who grew up in San Diego, committed to the Cardinal under former coach Jim Harbaugh in the fall of his junior year at St. Augustine High.
His experience to this point consists of four mop-up appearances last season in which he threw just 15 passes -- hardly an indication of his ability to execute in pressure situations against top-tier opponents.
But the 6-foot-5 left-hander was sharp in spring practice and distanced himself from redshirt freshman Ryan Burns. Crower is aware of the unique role of the backup quarterback, who is the least important player on the roster until he's the most important.
"Anything can happen, so I have to stay ready," he said. "I take mental reps (in practice) when I'm not in there, and that goes a long way. I try to learn as much as I can from Kevin -- anything to get an edge."
The difference this season, Crower believes, is his command of the offense in general and the running game in particular. He's better able to recognize the defensive fronts and switch into more advantageous plays at the line of scrimmage.
"He's really playing well," Shaw said. "He's continuing what he did in the spring ... If Kevin breaks his shoelace, Evan is going in to run the whole show."
The starting tailback, inside linebacker and safety will be announced next week with the release of the depth chart.
Montgomery, who had offseason shoulder surgery, uses a yellow jersey in practice to remind would-be tacklers to stay away.
"I hate the yellow jersey," he said.
Shaw expressed concern in late July about Montgomery's availability for the opener and the Week 2 showdown against USC. But the senior has shown no ill effects from the surgery during camp.
"I don't want to talk about my shoulder too much, but I feel good," he said.
"It helps break up the last week of camp," Shaw said.

Amaranth, like buckwheat and quinoa, contain protein that is unusually complete for a plant source, having a greater protein content than that of wheat. Sprouted unrefined whole grains can have 4x the amount of niacin, 2x the amount of B6 and folate, more protein and fewer starches than unsprouted grains. The American Heart Assn. recommends high fiber whole grains to decrease harmful cholesterol levels.
Ingredients: Premium, organic, raw, sprouted, stone ground amaranth.
About Our Flour of Life™ Product Line
Sprouting improves the digestibility of the nutrients in grains, nuts and seeds. The sprouting process (soaking, rinsing and germination) changes the composition of grains with beneficial results for your health.
Enzymes that aid digestion and deactivate aflatoxins (carcinogens) are produced in the process. Sprouting also produces Vitamins C and B (B2, B5 and B6) while increasing carotene.
Importantly, the process reduces or removes phytic acid This substance, by binding with minerals, inhibits the body's ability to absorb essential nutrients. Overall, sprouting provides access to the live, energizing phytonutrients available in grains.
High in fiber, the American Heart Association recommends adding whole grains to your diet to decrease harmful cholesterol levels.
We stone-grind all of our flours. It takes a bit longer, but we believe it produces a superior product than other grinding methods that use metal and often produce heat which can degrade delicate oils and nutrients.

Pure VFM package that speaks superior performance & reliabilityAt least in India, and on an average, Casio calculators score over brands like Sharp due to superior reliability and battery life. This calculator is no exception be it keypad design coupled with extreme ease of use. The large clear display is very easy on the eyes, as is the colour of the casing, very appealing (the other black and yellow coloured model looks very nice too). At this price, considering it lacks a backlit display is not a serious dampner if you ask me.

Killer looks, worth for money!!!A very nice calculator with extremely nice looks. The looks are very impressive and far better than the normal grey/black colored calculators. The display font size is huge and bold and will help a lot of people. It also has a tax calculator, which i have not evaluated but i guess it will also be a good feature.

WALNUT CREEK -- A loud cellphone alarm distracted Matt DeLima on Tuesday night as he was making an impassioned plea to the City Council to allow his bar to remain open past midnight -- even though it's now closed.
"Is my time up?" asked a confused DeLima, cracking one of the few smiles seen at this contentious meeting.
The council voted unanimously to deny his appeal of the Planning Commission's October decision to roll back Vice Ultra Lounge's last-call time to 11 p.m. from 1 a.m., citing repeated arrests of patrons, violations of city rules and a business model that did not fit their 2009 use-permit conditions.
"Having us close down at 11 p.m., it's like having Ruth's Chris (steak house) not able to serve dinner," said DeLima, a co-owner of the establishment that was a popular night life destination for young patrons from all over the Bay Area.
City officials said the use permit was issued with the understanding that Vice Ultra Lounge would operate as a bar and restaurant, and not a full-fledged dance club with crowded events. City officials said that over time the club started opening later and the food menu shrank. They also said a contentious relationship with police made coordinating with Vice Ultra Lounge's security difficult.
DeLima said they tried operating as a restaurant at lunchtime but nobody came. Vice closed on Jan. 1 and DeLima announced the closure via a mock news conference on YouTube. DeLima blamed the Planning Commission and police for what he says was unfair treatment.
But despite the limited hours, DeLima said he and business partner Jarad Andrews plan to move forward under a different name and a new mission. He says they are already working to change the former Vice into more of a hybrid restaurant, sports bar and late-night entertainment provider. And they hope the city will allow them to stay open later when they review the case in three months.
"Vice is closed, it's done; we want to move forward we want to stay positive," said DeLima. "Even 12:45 is almost impossible, but at least it gives an opportunity to modify the business and bring in this restaurant like we're supposed to do."
DeLima says the business might reopen in February with a larger food menu, and estimated the new restaurant will fully open in April. He said they are working to obtain permits, complete construction of a full kitchen and hire chefs. He also said security has been beefed up.
"We're going to put in 15 big, huge TVs that everyone can come and watch the games on," said DeLima. "It's a lot of money, and we're willing to make the investment. We want to be here."
Several council members said they hoped the earlier last-call time would spur DeLima and Andrews to develop a viable daytime operation and establish a pattern of working with the city and police to minimize past problems.
At Tuesday's meeting, city planning manager Steve Buckley spoke on behalf of city staff in recommending denial of DeLima's appeal. He told the council that there had been "more than 50, maybe 100 arrests in the last couple of years" at the club for intoxication, assaults, weapons and narcotics. DeLima and his lawyer Guy Louie countered that many of those fights and arrests happened during a time when DeLima was not running Vice.
"There's not even 50 arrests in this report here," said DeLima, pointing to the city's report compiling arrest records. "I think there's less than 30 in a 4-year span. To throw out a number like 100 arrests is very sad."
Councilwoman Kristina Lawson on Tuesday advocated revoking DeLima's and Andrews' use permit altogether.
"This is an operator that flagrantly violates the rules, comes in only once they've been cited for violations of those rules, and asks for forgiveness, ignores from what I can tell virtually all the conditions of approval that have been imposed on them," said Lawson. "The operator has publicly mocked our staff repeatedly over the terms of the conditional use permit."
Council members expressed skepticism about the sudden appearance of new business plans.
"I appreciate that you want to do a different business now. I think it would have been better had we heard that Oct. 27 and not in January," said Mayor Cindy Silva.

GAELLIVARE, Sweden - The U.S. Cross Country Ski Team made history Sunday, scoring its first ever FIS World Cup relay podium in a women's 4x5-kilometer team event in Gaellivare, Sweden. In a race where each of the four U.S. women needed to have their best ever 5k races, Jessie Diggins (Afton, Minn.) outsprinted Norway II into the finish to claim third with Norway taking the win over Sweden. After a solid opening classic leg by Holly Brooks (Anchorage, Alaska), Kikkan Randall (Anchorage, Alaska) skied strategically with the pack before finding an opportunity off a corner to take a line on the leader.
She skied the fastest leg of the day, putting the team into podium position and allowing Liz Stephen (E. Montpelier, Vt.) to power through a freestyle leg and set the stage for Diggins to bring home the podium 8.8 seconds behind Sweden and a half-second ahead of a hard-charging Norway II. Norway I took a solid win 19.6 seconds ahead of Sweden. The U.S. women scored a previous best last winter in Nove Mesto, Czech Republic, finishing fifth without an ailing Randall.
"We've known this was possible for a long time. we just knew it was going to take each of us putting together the right performance on the right day and we could be in the fight for the podium. Today everything came together," Randall said, later adding, "It was one of the strongest waves of emotion I've felt in a while."
The U.S. men finished 15th in the 4x7.5-kilometer relay. The World Cup now heads to Kuusamo, Finland for the opening sprints of the season.

However, I'm having trouble keeping the right order of the tracks in one of my albums.
They are all correctly tagged, I do it very thoroughly.
Yet, for some reason, track #10 keeps being shown as the second song of the album.
I tried to cut and paste the songs one after the other in the right order and re-scan my folder, but no results!
Could you guys help me?
Thank you, and sorry if my English's not perfect.

Many people come to our fair city to enjoy what winter has to offer and Albert House Inn Boutique Hotel is the perfect downtown Ottawa accommodation choice. Yes, its really cold in Ottawa now but what perfect weather for getting the ice ready for skating. Ottawa has a long history of skating, well before the idea for the Rideau Canal Skateway was conceived.
Did you know that there is an outdoor rink open to public skating at Rideau Hall, the Governor General's residence? This unique part of Canada's heritage has been associated with the official residence since the time of Lord Dufferin, who was the Governor General from 1872 to 1878. Whether you come to skate or just to walk the snow-covered paths, the historic grounds are a great place to enjoy winter.
Skaters can enjoy the outdoor rink on Saturdays and Sundays, from noon to 5 p.m., without a reservation. For more information go to Rideau Hall.
No need to worry when the weather changes and you're concerned about the ice conditions. The newest addition to Ottawa's skating scene, the city's Rink of Dreams, is a 12,500 square foot oval refrigerated outdoor skating facility situated on Marion Dewar Plaza at Ottawa City Hall, about a fifteen minute walk from Albert House Inn. It is one of the largest outdoor rinks in the City. The rink features LED lighting, a heated change hut and picnic tables and benches and it is right beside the Rideau Canal.
Of course, for the best skating experience by far there is nothing like the Rideau Canal Skateway. If it wasn't for the foresight of Douglas Fullerton, the Chair of the National Capital Commission in the early 1970's, this wonderful skating area might now be an expressway. The City of Ottawa actually proposed this idea, but thank goodness the skating plan was implemented on January 18, 1971, despite opposition by city council. Some 50,000 people skated on the canal on the first weekend. Now people come from all over the world to skate on the Canal. The cleared length is 7.8 kilometres (4.8 mi) and has the equivalent surface area of 90 Olympic hockey rinks.
Both the Rideau Canal Skateway and the Rink of Dreams are a fifteen minute walk from Albert House Inn Bed and Breakfast. When you return to the Inn after your skate you can enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate in our cosy lounge, warm up by the fireplace and then spend a relaxing night in one of our comfortable guest rooms. Then after a good sleep you can enjoy the many choices of our fantastic breakfast selections and go for another skate!

SAN JOSE -- Possible human remains were detected Wednesday in the rubble of a five-alarm fire that destroyed the former KNTV building over the weekend, but officials will have to bring in an excavation team Thursday to confirm that.
Also Wednesday, a homeless man was charged with using a liquid accelerant to burn down the building whose last incarnation was a haven for the city's homeless.
Stillman Pfeffer, 55, of San Jose, was charged with arson and first-degree burglary for the fire on Park Avenue, according to the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office. and arson investigators with the San Jose Fire Department.
Pfeffer was arraigned Wednesday and did not enter a plea. He is being held without bail while dogs trained to detect human remains are deployed by the San Jose Fire Department to examine the charred structure.
About 1:30 Wednesday, one of the dogs alerted handlers of a possible hit in the rubble. A short time later a second dog had a hit in the same location. The pile of debris was then partially excavated and the dogs were brought back again in the early evening. Again, they detected something, but officials said they would have to do a deeper excavation Thursday morning.
San Jose Fire Capt. Cleo Doss said that while they couldn't confirm remains were under the debris, the dogs used are generally quite reliable.
"These dogs are very experienced," he said. "One just came back from the state of Washington where it was assisting in the mudslides. They've done a lot of work and been very reliable. The handlers are very professional. But we still have to confirm what they say we have."
He said if remains are found, police will take over the crime scene.
"If there's something there, we will find it," Doss said.
If remains are found, Pfeffer would face more serious charges. If they aren't, his bail will be reassessed, Deputy District Attorney David Boyd said. A witness to the fire told investigators she saw a man "squirt a liquid onto a mattress" seconds before the fire broke out, according to an SJFD arson report. A dog specially trained in detecting fire accelerants helped corroborate the claim.
The witness also said she had a 4-month-old puppy that died in the fire. She helped direct San Jose police and the fire department to Pfeffer's location not far from the fire scene.
More than 100 firefighters from San Jose, Santa Clara and Sunnyvale battled the fire, which broke out at 3 p.m. Sunday. It was brought under control about two hours later but not before the roof and sides of the building collapsed. Two firefighters suffered minor injuries. Damage was estimated at $4 million.
The building was once home to KNTV but had been vacant since 2004. In 2012, it was used for fire training and recently as many has 30 homeless people have stayed overnight there. Pfeffer was reportedly homeless himself but was not staying in that building. Pfeffer is on probation for petty theft and had three prior convictions, authorities said.
The building was purchased by the city of San Jose's Redevelopment Agency in 2008 during its efforts to buy land in the downtown area for a prospective baseball stadium in an attempt to bring the Oakland Athletics to the city.

The St. James High School Athletic Hall of Fame Association by-laws were approved by the St. James School Board last week.
The purpose of the newly formed Hall of Fame is to give special recognition to people who've made contributions to the Saints athletic programs.
St. James high school teacher and baseball head coach Jon Wilson explained the structure of the Hall of Fame and how a person who was a player for the Saints will be selected for the Hall of Fame.
Athletes selected to the Hall of Fame must have graduated from St. James High School at least 15 years before admission to the Hall of Fame. The candidates must have shown mature accomplishments since graduation.
Other criteria to be considered will include athletic accomplishments like:
Having played on a conference or a Minnesota State High School League (district, section and region) championship team.
Played in a state tournament.
Earned a letter in more than one sport or lettered at least twice in a sport.
Named to an All-Conference, All-state, or All-Star team.
Received a news media recognition award.
Received team awards from annual programs such as being named MVP or the team captain.
Coaches, both head or assistant can be considered for the Hall of Fame.
The criteria for selection include:
A candidate must have coached a minimum of ten years in St. James.
Other criteria include being a coach who coached a team that won a conference championship.
Coached a team in regional and sectional competition.
Coached a team or individual in state meet competition.
Had a minimum 68 percent won/lost record.
Earned a state and or national award.
Assisted in a program that reached three of the listed criteria.
The current committee members are Wilson who is the chairperson, Jim Neid, Don Kurpiers, Jim Brass, Marcia Eggen, Dennis Johnson, Dale Eckstrom, Bill Mohr and Bruce Aamot.
The committee is thinking there will be around ten charter members to the Hall of Fame. The people selected as charter members will likely be announced at the St. James All-School Reunion in June.
The induction of the first class will be during Homecoming weekend on Sept. 28, 2013. A banquet is planned to be held at the VFW.

Politicians in general are not terribly tech-savvy, let alone conscious of the most important intellectual freedom issues, but President Barack Obama does have a reputation of being more aware than most of the new media and new possibilities of the internet. The new US presidential website shows some promise that indeed, we now have a US president who isn't afraid of the future.
Let's face it, for techies like me (and probably you if you're reading this, but I don't want to presume), my main issues just aren't page one stuff for the mainstream. I care deeply about issues like striking the right balance between "intellectual freedom" and "intellectual property" and I care about long range issues like the development of extraterrestrial space for human prosperity.
I will say that I think intellectual freedom is of critical importance to the sustained innovation and application of technology, and that if we are to get out of our present economic woes, we need to embrace it
But it's pretty hard to claim that these issues can trump two wars in Asia, a collapsing banking system, and what is, according to some, simultaneously the most expensive and least effective health care system on Earth. There is also the matter of rejecting "as false, the choice between our safety and our ideals", of which the first step was taken today in halting the travesty going on in Guantanamo Bay (though there are many more steps that must be taken to reclaim any semblance of respect for human rights).
But then, given Barack Obama's job, I would run screaming in the other direction.
I will say that I think intellectual freedom is of critical importance to the sustained innovation and application of technology, and that if we are to get out of our present economic woes, we need to embrace it, and not try to prop up the old system of corporate hegemony that has brought us to this pass by clinging to the outdated revenue models of an intellectual property system that has gone completely mad. Paranoia about the ills of "rampant piracy" of information on the internet needs to give way to joy at the opportunities that widespread, low-cost sharing of information presents.
I also think that development of solar power satellites in space (a technology fully conceived by the 1980s, but never developed or implemented) is the only real solution to our energy woes and dependence on oil. Frankly, we could have already implemented this system for what the US has spent on invading and occupying Iraq and Afghanistan. It's a shame we've already spent that money, and are planning to spend even more bailing out rich bankers who couldn't manage their businesses responsibly.
(Has there ever been a situation more demanding of laissez-faire capitalism than to let bankers who make bad investments go bankrupt? Sure, protect the homeowners -- I get that. But why do we need to protect billionaires from bankruptcy? I think they can take care of themselves, and is pretty clear that, being fully warned of the risks they were taking, they should be fully responsible for the consequences. But, hey, I'm not an economist, so what I do know?)
Most of my colleagues see space development as a Republican issue, despite the fact that it was a Democrat who started the US moon program (and a Republican who killed it). Certainly George Bush attempted to claim it (though at bargain prices: lots of words, but not a lot of money).
Obama, though, has said he wants to "restore science to its rightful place", so maybe there's a chance some of these issues will be looked at seriously. Of course, it is way too early to say with any certainty just how tech-savvy or pro-science or intellectual freedom the Obama administration will be. I don't even know yet whether the President's "weekly video address" will be in a free video format (surely it ought to be, but I have doubts about the reality).
There is this, though: the new whitehouse.gov website is a great deal more interactive and open than the firewall site that the Bush administration kept up as yet another shroud over the most secretive presidency in decades.
Wow. Free culture on the radar of the US President. That's new
And then there something else, from the "Copyright Policy" page (which is linked near the bottom of the front page). The first part is old hat (though it still makes me proud):
Pursuant to federal law, government-produced materials appearing on this site are not copyright protected. The United States Government may receive and hold copyrights transferred to it by assignment, bequest, or otherwise.
The interesting bit is this:
Except where otherwise noted, third-party content on this site is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License. Visitors to this website agree to grant a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license to the rest of the world for their submissions to Whitehouse.gov under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License.
Wow. Free culture on the radar of the US President. That's new. I will decline comment on the DMCA notice that follows it. There'll be time for cynicism later.
Still, the fact that the authors of the White House website have even heard of the Creative Commons gives me hope. Maybe we'll be able to get that video address in Ogg Theora format after all. Given time, anyway.
Happy Feet (foot)
I recall seeing shots of various Obama campaign HQ's, where the PC screens displayed no fruit, and no 'flapping in the breeze multi-colored window', instead they showed some small human-like creatures right foot....
good sign
That has to be a good sign.
The videos, BTW, seem to be available via two online sharing sites, including You Tube, and are also available as an MP4 download. I don't know whether there are any legal issues with the codec used, but pragmatically, it worked fine with the stock Debian VLC I have installed.
leave out the Hate Speech
Not every open source/free software supporter is a Democrat. Lets not bash Republicans in a tech article. Leave that for the political sites. You destroyed the integrity of your message with the hate speech.
"hate speech"
Disagreeing with someone, no matter how strongly is not "hate speech", and I do not "hate" Republicans.
I do disagree with them (sometimes violently) both in fundamental values and in strategic thinking, and I think there is ample objective evidence of the latter problem (the former being subjective by nature). I also have some disagreements with Democrats (as evidenced by my comments on the financial bail-out), though clearly not as many.
One cannot simply check one's values at the door when considering the politics of intellectual freedom, and I am certainly under no obligation to avoid talking about politics here, particularly as they impinge upon issues of importance to the free software community.
President Obama, in contrast to past Presidents of the US, has embraced new media outlets, the internet, and (apparently) free content to a much greater degree. IMHO, that has more to do with his age than his party affiliation -- but whatever the cause, it is a good thing from the point of view of our community.

- Obamacare's effect: The chronically ill
California may be at the forefront of implementing Obamacare, but it still has a mountain to climb informing people that they're eligible for the subsidized or free benefits that are a key part of making the controversial law work, a new Field Poll shows.
With enrollment in the state's new health-insurance exchange beginning Oct. 1, fewer than half of Californians whose income, age and insurance status qualify them for coverage benefits under the health care reforms knew of their eligibility when the poll was conducted this summer.
Less than half of low-income voters eligible to receive free health coverage next year under the expanded Medi-Cal program knew they're eligible. And only one in three moderate-income voters who aren't covered under an employer, union or government heatlh care program knew that they're entitled to tax credits to reduce their insurance costs.
Those are daunting figures as the government and private organizations ramp up more than $300 million worth of aggressive public-education campaigns to get those eligible for benefits to apply.
"The groups that they're after have very low awareness," Field Poll director Mark DiCamillo said. "So they have their work cut out for them."
But officials at Covered California, the insurance exchange, seem confident that millions will sign up and that the exchange will be ready for prime time.
"Beginning in September, you will see an ad campaign" that will grow to massive proportions by the month's end, Covered California spokesman Santiago Lucero said Tuesday.
At a news conference in San Jose in early June, President Barack Obama had said California's ahead-of-the-curve health insurance exchange and the aggressive outreach it planned made the state a model for the nation -- and proof that the Affordable Care Act can work.
Lucero said the agency has held its fire over the summer because "we have a limited amount of dollars that we need to spend wisely," but a blitz of television, radio, newspaper, magazine, billboard and transit ads is expected to reach a tremendous number of Californians in the final weeks before enrollment begins.
Those who make less than 400 percent of the federal poverty level -- about $45,960 for an individual and $94,200 for a family of four -- will be eligible for subsidies through Covered California. About 2.6 million Californians are expected to qualify.
And those who make less than 138 percent of the federal poverty level -- an estimated 1.4 million Californians -- will become eligible beginning on Jan. 1 for Medi-Cal, the joint state and federal health-insurance program for low-income residents.
Two out of three California voters are optimistic that the state will successfully implement the Affordable Care Act. And similar majorities believe it will meet more specific goals such as reducing the number of uninsured people, giving people more insurance options and providing better consumer protection. However, there's a deep partisan split here -- Democrats are very upbeat about what the reforms will accomplish while Republicans are much more skeptical.
More than 61 percent of California's uninsured are Latino. Covered California; the California Endowment, a private, statewide health foundation; and Spanish-language media outlets Univision, Telemundo and impreMedia have joined forces to launch a $130 million public education blitz to inform Latinos about Obamacare and urge them to buy health insurance.
Meanwhile, the state could see more than $174 million in federal spending to inform people of the new reforms.
Most Californians seem eager to learn. The Field Poll -- which surveyed 1,687 registered voters from June 26 to July 21 in seven languages with a grant from the California Wellness Foundation -- found 65 percent of voters under age 65 are interested in learning more about the health exchange and the options it offers. Interest is particularly high among the uninsured (83 percent), those who don't speak English (83 percent), African-Americans (82 percent) and Latinos (79 percent).
Isabel Salter, of Hayward, who has a 4-year-old son and whose husband is a truck driver and the family's sole breadwinner, didn't know that her household income would qualify her for benefits under the expanded Medi-Cal program until she was told during the poll. But once informed, she said she'd very likely apply.
A month after taking part in the poll, Salter, 33, said Tuesday that she still hasn't seen or heard ads about expanded benefits.
"I don't watch too much TV, but I haven't heard of anything," she said, adding that once such ads begin, the information would ripple quickly. "People are going to find out. A lot of it is word-of-mouth."

Ice and snow? Breckenridge depends on it for its existence but shouldn't take incoming visitors for granted.
Is it I for the Information center on Main Street? Not in our experience! When my wife asked what is happening during the next few weeks she was told the only events coming up were Thanksgiving (yes really!) and the Christmas lights.
Perhaps it's I for Inspirational? The opening night of "A Christmas Carol" at the Backstage Theater was great. Congratulations to the whole theatre company for their latest production. Everyone should go and see their Incredible performance!
Whilst at the theater we learned of Saturday's Film Festival - not mentioned by the Information Centre - Incomprehensible?
Maybe I is for Inexplicably unfriendly! I saw a Summit News advert to join the Saturday 17th Senior Tennis Court Time. "Show up on a per time basis" it said. I paid at reception and was practicing with a few others for 10 minutes until it began. A lady asked my name and said "you're not on my list we've got too many you can come tomorrow?"
I went skiing on Peak 8 Thursday and Friday with a pass. What about visitors paying $70 a day for two runs? Not to mention $11 for a hot chocolate and a tea? I asked two very polite helpers manning the "I" post by the restaurant about friends' discounts available on my pass - they were extremely pleasant but Inaccurately Informed. On the other hand a lady colleague of theirs greeted us at the base station with Infectious charm - she even knew where the Summit News dispenser box was at the top!
The Irony is, I have always thought Breckenridge is great, but sense a "Vail of Indifference."

Witness Statement of Rebecca Guttman: Electronic Edition, by Rebecca Guttman
I, REBECCA RACHELLE GUTTMAN of 802 1/2 E. Hollywood Street, Tampa, FL 33604, U.S.A, WILL SAY as follows:-
1.I am employed by The American Jewish Committee ("AJC"), Southwest Florida Chapter as Executive Assistant for West Coast Florida Chapter. I have worked for the AJC for one year. My responsibilities include: maintaining multiple databases, planning and organising lectures and other events, working with other organisations in the community and various administrative duties.
2.The AJC was founded in 1906 to ensure the protection of the rights and freedoms of Jews world-wide. The AJC endeavours to achieve this in the following ways: by combating extremism and discrimination, by advancing and protecting civil rights; by defending religious freedom; by strengthening mutual understanding among diverse religious, racial and ethnic groups; and by advocating for public policy issues of significance to the Jewish community and to society at large. As part of its aim to inform and protect the Jewish community, the AJC monitors far right extremist activity.
3.On or around mid July 1998, the AJC, Southwest Florida Chapter, received a flier from Ken Stern, who works at the Central Office of the AJC in New York City ,advertising a lecture to be given by Mr Irving on 25 July 1998 at the Best Western Hotel, 820 E Busch Boulevard, Tampa, Florida, U.S.A. This flier is attached to this statement at Appendix page 1. This flier described the Defendant as the "World Famous British Historian Banned For Publishing Politically Incorrect Views About The Holocaust". Although the flier made no mention of the National Alliance, the contact telephone number given was the number listed for the local office of the National Alliance (when I telephoned this number on 30 July 1998, the recorded message stated that the number was a "temporary number for the local Tampa unit")
4.The National Alliance is a far right, racist and anti-Semitic organisation. It disseminates its views through a variety of media; radio, pamphlets, posters, mailshots, the Internet, meetings and lectures. At Appendix pages 2-9, is a NA publication entitled "What Is the National Alliance?". I acquired this booklet at the meeting on 25 July.
5.At page 3 the title reads "Building a New White World". The pamphlet sets out in detail the ideology of the National Alliance and the means by which it intends to achieve its goals. At page 4, in a subsection headed "White Living Space", the text readsThe pamphlet goes on to specify that:
" After the sickness of "multiculturalism", which is destroying America, Britain, and every other Aryan nation in which it is being promoted, has been swept away, we must again have a racially clean area of the earth for the further development of our people. We must have White schools, White residential neighbourhoods and recreational areas, White workplaces, White farms and countryside. We must have no non-Whites in our living space, and we must have open space around us for expansion. We will do whatever is necessary to achieve this White living space and to keep it White......What we must have...is a thorough rooting out of Semitic and other non-Aryan values and customs everywhere".
"this means a society in which young men and women gather to revel with traditional European folk music.....It means pop music without Barry Manilow and art galleries without Marc Chagall. It means films in which the appearance of any non-White face on the screen is a sure sign that what's being shown is either archival newsreel footage or a historical drama about the bad, old days".
6.The text identifies the "enemy" of the National Alliance:The National Alliance offers an alternative:
"With the growth of mass democracy (the abolition of poll taxes and other qualifications for voters, the enfranchisement of women and of non-Whites), the rise in the influence of the mass media on public opinion, and the insinuation of the Jews into a position of control over the media, the U.S. government was gradually transformed into the malignant monster it is today: the single most dangerous and destructive enemy our race has ever known".
"The fact is that we need a strong, centralised government spanning several continents to co-ordinate many important tasks during the first few decades of a White world: the racial cleansing of the land, the rooting out of racially destructive institutions".
7.At page 5, the National Alliance outlines its plan for a new education system. It sets out the new system that should be adopted and refers to the techniques which "enjoyed an all-too-brief revival earlier this century in National Socialist Germany". The National Alliance believes that; "all we can hope to salvage [in the realisation of their objective] from even the racially White elements [of urban populations] is a selected minority, while the majority perishes in the chaos preceding the final cleansing.....Unfortunately....White governments everywhere are terminally corrupt, led by collaborators with the Jews" (page 6).
8.I would like to draw attention to the cartoon at page 6. In the picture entitled "NOW", a representative of the National Alliance shouts, from a basic podium, to a small group, while workers build a structure around him. On the other side, a man, flanked by a flag with a dollar sign and the "stars and stripes" flag of the USA, speaks through a megaphone. This man is identified as being Jewish by the skullcap he is wearing and by the Star of David, which appears on the megaphone. He talks from a high stone structure to a crowd. Below this, the two speakers are represented "LATER": the National Alliance emblem fronts a brick structure from which the National Alliance member speaks into a microphone. The other speaker stands on a crumbling podium, shaking his fist, while his crowd change allegiance.
9.The National Alliance repeatedly blames the "Jewish media" and the government for what they see as the "morally", "ideologically" and "degraded" state of society: "White governments everywhere are terminally corrupt, led by collaborators with the Jews" (page 6). "The government and the Jewish media will continue to have their hard core of support - Jews, feminists, some homosexuals, some Christians, the radical-liberal New World Order enthusiasts, most of the state and Federal bureaucrats, and others on government or media payrolls"(page 7). At page 8 under the title "HISTORY OF THE NATIONAL ALLIANCE", a brief account of National Alliance activity to date is given. Described are street demonstrations, organised by the National Alliance, where placards and banners were carried "denouncing not only the communists, Jews, and other avowed enemies of White America but also the government which tolerated and even encouraged them".
10.The "Eligibility" requirements of the National Alliance are "Any White person (a non-Jewish person of wholly European ancestry) of good character and at least 18 years of age who accepts as his own the goals of the National Alliance and who is willing to support the program described herein". It continues "No homosexual or bisexual person....no person with a non-White spouse or a non-White dependent...may be a member" (page 9)
11.I attended the NA event, at which Mr Irving spoke, on 25 July 1998 and made a contemporaneous note of what and whom I saw and heard (Appendix page 10). I have refreshed my memory from the note and am able to give a detailed account of my experience.
12.When I entered the room where the event was being held, members of the National Alliance greeted me and collected my admission fee, ($10 per person or $5 with a student ID card). Members of the National Alliance were identifiable by their neon stickers bearing the National Alliance logo. (The cartoon mentioned above, which appears at Appendix page 6, includes a drawing of the logo). Before I was allowed into the room, a National Alliance member ran a metal detector across my body and asked if I had any weapons on me.
13.There were approximately 70 people in attendance. Around 63 of these were male. The age of those gathered varied from 18 to 70 years old. There was no one there whom I recognised.
14.Inside the room there was a table set up with Mr Irving's books and copies of his latest newsletter. Across the room there was a table set up for the National Alliance with books, fliers and cassette tapes. I picked up a selection of the material on offer. This material is at Appendix pages 11 to 106. This material comprises; a Catalogue number 17 of National Vanguard Books (with supplement) (pages 11-85), a flier advertising Mr Irving's books (page 86), a hand written photocopied flier advertising Mr Irving's next lecture (page 87) and a publication entitled "David Irving's Action Report", dated July 20, 1998 (pages 88-106).
15.The first of these items, the National Vanguard Books catalogue, details recommended books and other publications that are intended to inform its supporters and readers about, amongst other subjects, their "Aryan ancestors" , "The Enemy" and "The Solution: What is to be done now" (page13). There is no effort to conceal the racist, anti-Semitic stance of National Vanguard Books. At page 13, under the subtitle "The Enemy", the text reads: "Communism is not the only racially destructive movement the Jews have been behind; feminism (for Gentiles) is another....The destructive role of the Jews in psychology and psychiatry becomes apparent in The Decline and Fall of the Freudian Empire". The text continues and states that it is aware of "The role of Zionism in the Jewish drive to destroy America".
16.Under the sub-heading "The Second World War" National Vanguard Books recommends Mr Irving's book Churchill's War. Underneath the text reads:
"Finally, there is the question of who the "good guys" and the "bad guys" were: who were the people fighting for the White race, and who were fighting against its interests; who showed a certain degree of decency and humanity in the conduct and humanity in the conduct of the war, and who were the savages? The very disturbing answers will be found in Dachau: Hour of the Avenger, Doenitz at Nuremberg, Advance to Barbarism, German Expellees, The Wehrmacht War Crimes Bureau: 1939-1945, and Gruesome Harvest" (page27).
17.There follows the catalogue of books under varied headings including; "European Prehistory, Archaeology, and Folkways", "American History", "Communism, Zionism, Feminism and the Jews", "National Socialist Revolution", " Books for Children and Young People", "Race: Science and Sociology" and "Survival and Self-defence". Under the section entitled: "Second World War", the publication recommends Mr Irving's book Churchill's War: "The clichés about good old "Winnie" and "Ike" will ring hollow after David Irving's Churchill's War". I would also like to draw attention to the comments which appear beneath Mr Irving's books; Churchill's War and Hitler's War, at page ..... In addition, in order to complete a picture of the views and ideology espoused by National Vanguard Books, I would like to highlight the following pages: 47-51 (an article entitled "The Alien Grip on Our News and Entertainment Media Must be Broken"), 54-55 (cataloguing books on explosives, guerrilla warfare, incendiaries and boobytraps), 65 (video tapes) and 79 ("About the National Alliance: A Brief Summary").
18.At the meeting, the podium, which was situated at the end of the room, was decorated with a National Alliance flag. A National Alliance member took the podium and told everyone to feel free to peruse the literature set up at the National Alliance table. This member then introduced Mr Irving.
19.Mr Irving made his speech, which lasted for about an hour. He spoke on a wide variety of topics, one of which was the Holocaust. Mr Irving referred to those who call him a "Holocaust Denier" as "Holocaust Liars". He spoke of the countries from which he is banned, and seemed to regard each ban as a victory. He claimed that the countries involved were scared of the "truth", that is, the "truth" that there were no gas chambers at Auschwitz and other lies of the Holocaust deniers.
20.After the speech there was a question and answer session. Most of the questions were about World War II. At the end of the talk the audience applauded Mr Irving.
21.Several members of the National Alliance were acting as security for the event. They were constantly scanning the audience from four different locations around the room. Two were situated behind Mr Irving and two stood on either side of the audience, at the half mark of the room. There were also several National Alliance members standing by the doors. It was not clear in what capacity they were standing there. I stayed for the duration of the meeting, which lasted about one and a half hours.
22.The contents of this statement are true to the best of my knowledge and belief.

LAKE CHARLES, La. – The Texas A&M - Corpus Christi softball team dropped a 4-1 decision to McNeese State in the final game of the conference series Sunday afternoon at Cowgirl Diamond. The Islanders tallied seven hits to the Cowgirls' eight but a three-run fifth inning helped lift the home team to their fifth straight conference victory.
Valerie Perez went 2-for-3 to lead the Islanders' (6-21, 1-5 SLC) bats and Mickayla Cochran went 2-for-4 with an RBI. Meagan McKinney, Natalie Zarzabal and Hayley Galloway each chipped in one hit apiece for the Islanders
The Cowgirls (23-7, 5-0 SLC) received help from Lakeyn Fontenot who went 2-for-2 at the plate and Meagan Bond who recorded eight strikeouts in the circle.
Cochran opened the game with a base hit to shortstop and advanced to second on a Dani Tefft ground out. However, the Cowgirls escaped retiring the next two Islanders.
McNeese State got on board in the bottom of the second with a leadoff home run over the right field wall. Constance Brandenburg retired the next two Cowgirls before the home team put runners on first and second with a single to right field and a walk. Brandenburg responded though with a 1-3 putout.
McKinney tacked on the Islanders fourth hit of the game in the top of the third with a two-out single up the middle.
The Islanders' defense came up big in the bottom of the third after the Cowgirls put runners on second and third with one out. McNeese State led the frame with a hit by pitch and followed it with a walk. After a sacrifice hit landed runners on second and third, the Islanders' pulled together to escape the jam. Lindsey Lyles fielded a hard ground ball at third for the putout and Cochran followed with a catch in right center.
The Islanders had another strong defensive inning in the bottom of the fourth frame. After a leadoff single and a sacrifice bunt, the Cowgirls put runners on first and second. Ashley Elicerio came in to relieve Brandenburg in the circle with one out and the Islanders' defense pulled out of the inning with a fly out to Cochran in center field and a line drive to Perez at shortstop.
McNeese State posted three runs in the bottom of the fifth on three hits to take a 4-0 lead. After a single and a double plated Emily Vincent, a sacrifice fly to Cochran in center field tacked on the second run, before a single to a diving Galloway at second scored the third run of the frame.
The Islanders jumped on board in the top of the seventh with one run on three hits. Perez led the top of the seventh with a rip to center field before Galloway followed with a single up the middle with two outs. Cochran then stepped to the plate and drilled a RBI single to center field to score Perez and advanced to second on the throw. With runners on second and third, Tefft grounded out to third base to end the game.
Brandenburg (4-9) took the loss for the Islanders in 3.1 innings. She allowed four hits and one run while walking three. Elicerio allowed three runs, two of them earned, four hits while walking one and striking out one in 2.2 innings.
Meagan Bond (11-2) picked up the victory in the circle for the Cowgirls. She allowed seven hits, one run, while striking out eight and walking none in seven innings.
The Islanders will host Northwestern State in a three-game series at Chapman Field on March 23 and March 24.

Various watchers of "The Bible" miniseries are saying that the actor playing the role of Satan looks a lot like President Barack Obama.
No, the show does not air on Fox News.
Actor Mohamen Mehdi Ouazanni plays the role, and he does look quite a bit like an aged version of the president, which was noticed by a number of people who use Twitter. Among them was conservative commentattor Glenn Beck, who called the series "one of the most important shows in decades," and posted a screenshot of Ouazanni and asking if others thought he looked like "That Guy," which is Beck's term for Obama.
Yeah ... well, I once saw a potato chip that looked like Gerald Ford.
Ouazzani has starred in multiple faith-based films, including "The Ten Commandments," "The Satanic Angels," "Jeremiah" and "David."
No word on whether anyone is looking for his birth certificate.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, "The Bible" was developed by reality TV producer Mark Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey. Burnett has donated to Democratic causes, though he also produces Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice" and worked on "Sarah Palin's Alaska." Downey is known as being very religious and also produces "Little Angels," a Christian show for children.
"The Bible" has been criticized for other reasons. Some Biblical scholars have said the show seems to be "Europeanizing" characters, with positive roles being played by white actors while ones prone to evil are filled by actors with darker skin.

LAFAYETTE -- A 51-year-old Pittsburg man died in a head-on collision on Highway 24 early Friday morning, and police say the crash was caused by a suspected drunken driver who was traveling on the wrong side of the highway.
Alvaro Santos Cruz was killed when the driver of a silver Toyota Avalon, identified as Annelise McKay, 20, of Brentwood, collided head-on with his red Geo Metro as he drove eastbound near St. Stevens Road, CHP Officer Jonathan Fransen said.
McKay, who was driving westbound, reportedly crossed over onto the wrong side of the highway, hitting Cruz and causing him to sideswipe a Buick Century.
Cruz was pronounced dead at the scene, Fransen said. McKay was taken to John Muir Medical Center to be treated for minor injuries, and the driver of the Buick was driven to the hospital by his wife to be treated for back pain.
According to Fransen, McKay was later arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol.
On a Facebook page that appears to be McKay's, a post written Jan. 10 reads: "If someone is belligerently drunk with their keys in hand, don't let them drive home. ... Put your pride aside to save a life."
A friend comments that she hopes McKay will remember her own advice. McKay responds, "Lol yeah I'll totally remember this when I'm drunk. lol."

SKY CourtTRY NEWSPAPER OF THE SAUSH, PEND cTOREILLE AND KOOTENAI TRIBES OF THE FLATHEAD INDIAN RESERVATION, WESTERN MONTANA VOLUME 12 NUMBER 17 THE SHOWING MONTH JANUARY 15, 1984 'Secret meetings'?: Report from the quarterly Felsman, Steele win top spots on Council by acclamation Joe Felsman and Jim Steele were selected Tribal Council Chairman and Vice-Chairman, respectively, by acclamation of their Council peers at 1984's first quarterly meeting January 6 in Pablo. Vic Stinger retained his honorary post of Tribal Secretary, as did Bob McCrea as Tribal Treasurer, also by acclamation The Council Chambers were almost filled to capacity as new councilmen Mickey Pablo (Hot Springs), Ron Therriault (St. Ignatius), and Kevin Howlett (Arlee), were sworn in by BIA Superintendent Al Spang, along with victorious incumbents Stinger (Pablo) and Sonny Morigeau (Dixon). Clarence Woodcock, cultural leader from St Ignatius, began the ceremony with a prayer in English and Salish, which was followed by an honor song from Woodcock, Alex Quequesah, Dolly Linsebigler, and Greg DuMontier. Nominations for Council office then began. All the winners were chosen by the same method: One nomination was made and seconded, then nominations were closed, leading to each of the people named being selected without competition. Selection of sergeant-at-arms, the duties of which are listed in the minutes elsewhere in this issue, wasn't so easy. Thirteen hopefuls, including four women, were culled to four by secret ballot of the Council. Incumbent Buddy McDonald was defeated by George Hewankorn, who was selected after a second, tie-breaker ballot between him and Joe E. Garcia Each councilman was then encouraged to say a few words. A remark common to all was, "Thanks for the support... thanks for being concerned enough to cast a vote." The first topic of many to be discussed during the day-long meeting was a rumor about "secret Council meetings". A number of councilmen assured the audience that the two meetings held since the December 17 election were simply informal 'getting to know you' gatherings at which no official actions were taken. (Jim Steele comments on the matter on page 6.) After three requests for donations were dealt with, two of which were successful, new representative Ron Therriault moved that councilmen serving on boards involved with programs with managers -- "buffer boards" - be phased out Action on the motion won't be immediate, however, pending further study and clarification on which boards will be affected Further discussion on Tribal operations involved remarks about reorganization to increase effectiveness and decrease spending. Howlett said there would probably be some reassigning of people. Problems with "turf could be solved with some solid (Continues on the next page)

News 12 First at Five / Thursday, Feb. 28, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- "Eleven lots would actually back up to it," said Planning and Development Director George Patty, pointing to the building plans.
The construction for a seven-building, 250-unit apartment complex is right on the horizon and right at the edge of Doreen Coleman's backyard.
"We have some family members here that are not pleased with this project whatsoever. If we had known, we would have protested this," Coleman said.
Patty says the vision for the complex is an upscale, multi-family facility. Sitting less than a mile from Gate 5 of Fort Gordon, the complex is intended to serve the military community.
Neighbors in that area are worried that this complex and the new compressed natural gas station going in across the street will bring even more traffic to an already congested area.
"We're going to have traffic all over the place that we're going to have a hard time getting into our property," Coleman said.
"The apartments are going to bring traffic. I mean, there's no debate about that," Patty admitted. "And it's already a congested area in peak periods when travel to and from the fort is."
But city leaders say the compressed natural gas station across the street will have little to no impact at all. About 20,000 cars drive down Tobacco Road each day, and this new filling station will only add about 30 more trucks per day.
According to the apartment plans, there will be a fence and tree buffer at the property line.
"I'm sympathetic to the owners that didn't foresee at some point that property would be developed, but that's what's occurring now, and I suspect it will not be as bad as they think it will be," Patty said.
The plans still have to be approved by the city, but developers say they could start construction in the next few weeks.
Those against the plan are working on a petition. They say if they can't stop the apartment complex from coming, they at least want a brick wall between the complex and their property for security reasons.
