4. Threats
Sheila Macdonald and Chris Mason
A number of factors are involved in the decline, both in population and range, of several otter species. The most important of these are pollution (especially in the developed world), habitat destruction, and over hunting.
There is little doubt that pollution has exerted major effects on the distribution and abundance of otters, though most work linking pollution to otter declines relates to the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) in western Europe. A review is provided by Mason (1989).
Pollution may influence otters either indirectly or directly. Indirect effects include damage to the food supply or habitat of otters, thus lowering the carrying capacity of an affected area. Direct effects impact on the animal itself, resulting either in rapid death (acute toxicity) or in a lowered fitness (sub-lethal toxicity), reducing the animal's ability to reproduce successfully or to survive in inclement conditions.
Indirect effects are most significant when they destroy the fish stocks or other prey forming the main food supply of otters. The most widespread form of pollution is organic waste from domestic and industrial sources. Where sources are small and adequately treated, organic discharges will do little damage and, by adding nutrients to streams, may enhance fish populations to the benefit of otters. However, poorly treated effluents can wipe out fish populations for long distances downstream of the discharge. Such effects can be of particular importance where large cities are situated in the middle reaches of major rivers with organic pollution rendering long stretches of otherwise suitable habitat unusable by otters. Intensive animal husbandry (such as of pigs, cattle, or chickens) also results in problems of waste disposal, the river providing the easiest, though often illegal, solution to the problem. In contrast to the effects of cities, livestock units are often situated close to smaller streams and rivers, and so pollution from these sources can remove further refuge areas for otters.
Rural industry may also pose indirect threats to otters, particularly mining for gravel and metals. In many countries gravel is extracted directly from river beds, not only destroying natural vegetation but also sharply increasing the silt load of the water, which clogs the gills of fish. Mine water is not only frequently acid, but it is often rich in metals which are acutely toxic to fish. Mason and Macdonald (1988a) reported how the discharge from a small mine in a remote area of Wales destroyed the fish population and made an otherwise ideal river habitat unsuitable for the Eurasian otter.
Massive fish kills from pollution can deplete the food supply for otters (Photo by Martin Gaethlich).
The acidification of freshwaters is now a widespread problem in the northeast United States, Canada, and Scandinavia, and has been more recently described from upland waters in the United Kingdom. Gaseous pollutants, many of them released from power stations, are eventually returned to land in precipitation at sites remote from their origin, causing episodes of very low pH as they are washed into streams with poor buffering capacity. The effect is exacerbated in those catchments afforested with conifers and the outcome is the elimination of much of the stream fauna, including fish. Few studies linking otter distribution to acidification have been made. However, Mason and Macdonald (1987) described how in the headwaters of a Welsh river, an afforested branch, receiving episodes of acid water, were not used by the Eurasian otter, while the species was resident on an adjacent branch which drained down open hills and was not subject to low pH. More recent work in Scotland has shown a relationship between low pH and reduced otter usage in streams in a region known to be suffering from severe acidification (Mason and Macdonald 1989).
Of those compounds which cause direct effects on otters, most concern has been expressed over oil, organochlorines, and heavy metals. Oil is known to have killed coastal-dwelling Eurasian otters and sea otters (Enhydra lutris) and acts by contaminating the fur, increasing heat loss, and reducing buoyancy of the animal (Costa and Kooyman 1982). Oil may be ingested and prove toxic during grooming, causing death by hemorrhagic gastroenteropathy (Baker et al. 1981). These effects were confirmed in March 1989 when a large-scale oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska, killed many sea otters.
Effluents from mining operations can contaminate a stream, like this one in Greece (Photo by Martin Gaethlich).
Organochlorines and heavy metals are ingested mainly via the food supply. These pollutants are persistent, accumulating in living tissues, and they are a particular problem in freshwater because there are many sources. Rainfall will wash atmospheric pollutants and chemicals applied to land into watercourses. Some pesticides are deliberately applied to water, especially in the tropics, to control pests such as mosquitoes, black-flies, and molluscs. Many industries discharge effluents directly into rivers or indirectly via sewage works. Small amounts of persistent pollutants in effluents may become quickly concentrated in the biota. Fish take in pollutants with their food, via their gills, and through their skin. Otters obtain pollutants almost entirely through their food, but if that is contaminated, high concentrations can quickly result.
There are few direct toxicological data on otters, though the American mink (Mustela vison) has been used as a laboratory model. It is therefore necessary to make a subjective assessment of the significance of pollution loads which are recorded in otter tissues. Because of the possibility of sublethal effects, which are difficult to detect but which could markedly reduce an individual's ability to survive, the conservationist should be concerned even with comparatively low levels of pollutants within tissues. It should also be remembered that an individual may carry a suite of pollutants, which might interact to produce toxic effects that are largely unknown.
Chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides have been used widely in agriculture, horticulture, and forestry, as well as in industries such as wool and carpet manufacture and timber preserving. Their use has now been reduced in the developed world, but large amounts are still exported to the tropics. Chlorinated hydrocarbons are highly persistent in the environment, so that even if no longer applied, their effects may last for decades. High concentrations of dieldrin, for example, have accumulated in freshwater fish in southwest England, though it has proved impossible to locate the source precisely (Hamilton 1985). Chlorinated hydrocarbons are liposoluble and so build up in high concentrations in animal tissues. They may exert their toxic effects when fat stores are mobilized in periods of stress, for example during reproduction or food shortages.
Chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides are known to have caused massive declines in the numbers of many bird and some mammal species and high concentrations have been recorded in the Eurasian otter, the North American river otter, and the sea otter (Mason and Macdonald 1986). There is little concrete evidence that pesticides have caused a decline in otters, but because of the secretive behavior of these animals, decreases may have gone unrecorded during the peak period of pesticide usage. Few otter tissues were analyzed from this period. Chanin and Jefferies (1978) attributed the decline of the Eurasian otter in Britain, which began in the late 1950s, to the introduction of dieldrin into the environment, but they have provided no analytical data to substantiate their claim. PCB usage increased exponentially during the 1950s.
Otters no longer inhabit rivers like this one that has been cleared of bankside vegetation and channelized (Photo by Chris Mason).
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are organochlorines, which have a wide variety of industrial uses due to their physico-chemical characteristics such as high stability, inertness, and dielectric properties. They are widely dispersed in the environment, being distributed by water and in the atmosphere. They are highly lipophilic and biologically stable. Very low concentrations in water, often below the level of detection, can be greatly amplified in living tissues, with bioconcentration in aquatic mammals being as high as 107 (Tanabe 1988).
Experiments in which mink were dosed with PCBs have shown that reproductive failure occurs when concentrations exceed 50 mg PCB/kg fat (Jensen et al. 1977). It is known that such concentrations have been exceeded in Eurasian otters from Sweden, eastern England, and the Netherlands, where numbers have declined sharply (see Fig. 1). In contrast, thriving otter populations in northern Norway and northern Scotland have generally contained low levels of PCBs (Mason et al. 1986a; Mason and Reynolds 1988). Concern has also been expressed over PCBs in the North American river otter (Henny et al. 1981). Many of the PCB analyses are recent, indicating that the compounds are still a potent threat to populations. For example, a Eurasian otter cub, born in eastern England to a mother released as part of a restocking program, was killed by a car when not yet weaned at only 11 weeks of age: it had already accumulated 62 mg of PCBs per kg fat in its liver (Jefferies and Hanson 1987). Two animals from eastern England, containing high concentrations of PCBs, exhibited pathological symptoms, such as ulcers and skin abnormalities (Keymer et al. 1988), similar to those recorded in Baltic seals, where the cause was considered to be PCB-induced adrenocortical hyperplasia, resulting in a failure of the immune system (Bergman and Olsson 1986). Clearly such observations have major implications for any proposed reintroduction program for otters.
Figure 1. Mean (and range) of PCBs (mg kg-1 in lipid) from different European populations of Eurasian otters, Lutra lutra (status of population in parentheses). 1. southern Sweden (endangered); 2. northern Sweden (severe decline); 3. coastal Norway (thriving); 4. Finland (stable); 5. Scotland (thriving); 6. Wales (expanding following decline); 7. southwest England (expanding following decline); 8. eastern England (endangered); 9. Netherlands (probably now extinct). The hatched line at 50 mg kg-1 indicates the concentration of PCBs in tissues known to cause reproductive failure in American mink (Mustela vison).
Heavy metals are widely distributed in tissues of otters (Mason and Macdonald 1986a) but, unlike organochlorines, metals occur naturally in the environment. A probable case of mercury poisoning in the North American river otter has been described from an animal living in an Ontario river contaminated with chlor-alkali wastes (Wren 1985), while elevated concentrations have also been reported from the United States and from Eurasian otters in Britain. Elevated concentrations of lead and cadmium have also been reported (Mason et al. 1986b). However, in general it seems unlikely that metals have been involved directly in widespread declines of otters, though there is the possibility of more subtle, sub-lethal effects and synergistic action between metals and organochlorines (Olsson et al. 1979).
Few otters become available for analysis of pollutants, so it may be necessary to use alternative techniques to assess potential threats to otter populations, or to provide clues to their disappearance. The analysis of potential prey is an obvious technique (see Mason 1989). Preliminary work has indicated that the analysis of pollutants in spraints (scats) provides a useful way of assessing the load of metals, radioactivity, and organochlorines in otter populations (Mason and Macdonald 1986b, 1988b; Macdonald and Mason 1988).
Otters generally require shelter in which to sleep and breed. Some, like the smooth otter (Lutra perspicillata) can excavate their own dens, but most make use of holes in river banks, caves, cavities amongst tree roots, log jams, or piles of rock and debris. Many simply take cover in dense waterside scrub, reed-beds, or marshes. Impenetrable riparian vegetation comprises an important requirement for many species. The removal of such habitat was cited as a major factor influencing the status of populations of the Neotropical otter (Lutra longicaudis), southern river otter (L. provocax) and giant otter (Pteronura brasiliensis) throughout their ranges in Latin America (Melquist 1984). Radio-tracked North American river otters avoided a reservoir with little resting and escape cover despite its suitability in other respects (Melquist and Hornocker 1983).
In Britain, den sites of the Eurasian otter are often found in eroded root systems of old riparian trees (Macdonald and Mason 1983a). Chehébar et al. (1986), working in Argentina, found the southern river otter to be restricted to lake shores covered in forest or shrubs where the animals made use of mature root systems and fallen trees. In Britain, large trees were systematically removed from river banks by water authorities in case they fell into the water and caused blockages and damage.
A degraded stream in South Africa, due to overgrazing and erosion, with no cover for otters (Photo by Dave Rowe-Rowe).
Western European rivers have been cleared of vegetation and frequently also straightened both for flood prevention and to maximize available agricultural land. Marshes have been drained. Otters disappear from areas where no suitable habitat remains but will tolerate limited alterations. Some make use of small reservoirs and canals, such as the Eurasian otter in Israel and giant otter and Neotropical otter in the Guyanas (Macdonald et al. 1986; Melquist 1984).
Deforestation for timber extraction, or for conversion to grazing lands, followed by overgrazing, is rife throughout much of South America and Asia. The riparian habitat is lost and siltation of waters reduces the otters' food supplies. Similarly, in Africa the rapidly increasing human population has resulted in unwise agricultural practices and extreme over-grazing with the same results (Rowe-Rowe 1986). Deforestation and overgrazing, common also in southern Europe, affects water flow, leading to torrents in the rainy season followed by dry river beds for the rest of the year. In Asia, clearance of mangroves and conversion of these areas to agricultural or aquacultural projects similarly reduces habitat available to otters.
The construction of dams can also threaten otter survival. In Morocco and Spain, for example, many dams have been built in the uplands where the water is retained, leaving lowland rivers dry. Irrigation water is supplied in raised channels, and artificial reservoirs are often too deep and steep-sided to provide useful otter habitat. Also, when dams are constructed in semiarid environments, where the former riparian habitat was the only vegetation in the area, the newly created lakes are generally devoid of thick vegetation on the shores, and many years can pass before soil develops and riparian habitat regenerates. In some cases, this can fragment populations and disrupt free genetic interchange between populations.
Otters are shot and trapped for their pelts, in some countries legally, but in most illegally. They are also killed because of their supposed predation of fish and crustacean stocks, for instance at fish-farms through much of Europe, and aquaculture schemes in Asia and Africa.
The North American river otter is trapped legally in 27 states in the United States, and in 11 Canadian provinces. Over the years 1985 to 1988 inclusive, 27,658, 41,222, 44,060, and 37,247 skins respectively were reported in international trade (data from Wildlife Trade Monitoring Unit). However, hunting of the North American river otter is now managed by quota and may no longer be a serious threat.
South American otters were extensively trapped for their skins in most countries until the late 1960s, when hunting was largely banned. In 1980, the net trade in the Neotropical otter was 37,443 skins. Since then, there has been a rapid decline, to 157 in 1985 (Broad 1987). Paraguay was the largest source of pelts up to the early 1980s. Some 902 skins of the threatened southern river otter were reported in international trade in 1984. There is still some residual hunting of otters in a number of countries and otter products have been reported for sale in French Guiana and Uruguay. Hunting undoubtedly has been a major cause of the decline of otters in Latin America in the past and may still be locally important, since poaching is difficult to control and the price paid for a pelt is often many times higher than a monthly wage.
Illegal hunting for pelts may also be a problem in tropical Asia, and 3,558 skins of smooth otter were exported from Bangladesh in 1980. There were also reportedly 1,032 skins of hairy-nosed otter (Lutra sumatrana) traded in 1987 (1,000 of them supposedly from China). The current status of this species is causing great concern to the Otter Specialist Group. In general, however, there is still very little information on which to assess the threats of illegal hunting to otters in Asia.
Many otters are accidentally drowned in fish traps of various types. Fyke nets (conical nets often set for eels) are responsible for many deaths of the Eurasian otter; otters also die in crustacean traps. For a review of known numbers of mortalities in Europe, see Jefferies et al. (1984). Otter deaths in fyke nets can be prevented by the use of a "stop grid" at the net entrance (Madsen 1989). Lack of recent growth of the California sea otter populations is thought to be due to entanglement in coastal set nets (Ames 1987; Van Blaricom and Estes 1988).
Otters are killed on roads by traffic. Specific numbers are only available from Europe; for example, 26 of 50 recorded Eurasian otter deaths in West Germany (Heidemann 1981).
General human disturbance is likely to be a serious problem only where the habitat is inadequate. The Eurasian, North American river, southern river, and Neotropical otters inhabit lakes used for recreation and can be found in waterways well within the boundaries of cities. Their tolerance to disturbance seems to be related to the availability of suitable escape cover. Thus, habitat destruction and human disturbance interact in their effects on otter behavior.

This was an excellant recipe. My son made it by himself he sauted garlicin the beginning and added tomatoes & bell pepper towards the end. Yummy.
Excellent Recipe!! I want to thank you for this recipe, I cook every day for my family and this Beef Stew is so easy to make and not only that but, it taste so good! We all enjoyed this and the texture of this beef stew is perfect. Thanks again and keep it coming. Just love it! The Carreon's Family*****
One of the best stews I've eaten in a long time... Varied the recipe a little by using Beef Stock instead of water (towards the end I added more water anyway), increased the Worcestershire sauce to 4 Tbsp, and put the Peppers and Onions in a food processor first. Also increased the #'s of Potato's and Carrots for my kids. And this cooked for 5 hours in a roaster at 350 degrees (didn't have a dutch oven...).

Essentially, I had the exact same experience as these other unsuspecting job seekers. I have a resume on Career Builder and am looking for management consulting work. I was contacted on Career Builder via email by the Waterview Group. The email led me to believe they were interested in me for a consulting position with there firm. I went through all the hoops...including an online assessment test to determine my suitability for consulting work with Waterview.
Then, after I "passed" the test I was invited to participate in an online orientation with Eric Leaman of OED. As the process progressed I heard more of OED and less of Waterview. I listened to Eric's presentation and halfway through it was apparent there was no job with Waterview and instead Eric was simply trying to sell me some very expensive training to become a more effective consultant.
So, here is the bait and switch. I was contacted about a possible consulting position with Waterview and then was sold a training program and no mention of any job, with Waterview or anyone else. I'm not even sure there is a real Waterview Group?
I've reported these guys to Career Builder and have ceased all communications with them.

Thank you for this great plugin. I installed this recently to our website and I put a homepage description and title. However, none of those settings are showing in search results. All that I see is menu items. Is there a way to ensure that the settings in this plugin overrides any other settings that I may have on wordpress? I am suspecting that there maybe a conflict somehow.

Petal Hook
10 USDcream
Rated 3.9 out of 5 by 12 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by jgwert Cute and Strong! Love this hook, I have the matching pulls for my bedside table and they create a great aesthetic to my bedroom. November 20, 2009
Rated 1 out of 5 by lisham One out of 4 broke We bought 4 of these petal hooks, which are beautiful. The flower screws off so the hook may be screwed into the wall. Then it gets screwed back on. One of the flowers crumbled as my husband gently unscrewed it. Major bummer, as we are putting them up in time for a party. November 24, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by E111 Very cute, along with mirror, mirror hook and buttercup hook and they all look great in my room. However, I ordered them online and this hook was chipped when it arrived. I looked inside the box and the tissue paper, so I think it was shipped to me already broken. It doesn't look that noticeable, but obviously I would have rather it be perfect and it's not worth paying any more to send back for a replacement. February 22, 2010

davidz.com's website says that they will allow a return within 30 days of a purchase. The problem is that you must first request a return authorization number before returning your merchandise. I have been requesting a return authorization number for 10 days (three different times). They claim they will respond within 1 business day, but do not do so. They have no phone number listed so there is no way to contact them. They are scamming the public by saying they have a return policy--they don't adhere to it.
Don't buy from them unless you want to get ripped off!!

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, March 20, 2013POSTED: Wednesday, March 20, 2013
When I was called, Robert said that some of the ladies were talking about one of the men as being creepy. I recommended that they avoid being in his presence and that generally, people are adults and that they would likely steer away from anyone that wasn't enjoyable to be around. They were at a resort and were free to tour, eat, go out etc. anywhere in Playa del Carmen. He never used the phrase sexual predator or further explained that creepy was dangerous or harmful.
As a final note, the accused has traveled with Singles Travel International on other occasions and we have never received a report about him. Our policy is that members are removed from the privilege to travel once a report is filed. We talk to the offending party about the incident and a decision is made. After 32 years in business with an A+ rating, it is our experience that there are 3 sides to every story. We seek the truth in every case and thank Robert for his participation in the process.

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
We review the Wii version of Super Monkey Ball.
Don't take that to mean Banana Blitz should be ignored, though. It's just that the Wii's day-one lineup is considerably more robust than the GameCube's was. Rather than being a flimsy lifeline for desperate Nintendo fans ("See? We have this, uh, one completely, um, awesome third-party game! GameCube is gonna rule!"), it's but one of many quality Wii games available this week.
Freed of the burden of unreasonable perception and unmanageable expectations, it's easier now to see Monkey Ball for what it is: Good, simple fun hearkening back to the classic arcade days of Marble Madness. There's a modern twist to Banana Blitz, though, as it makes heavy use of the Wii's motion-sensitive controller. Like way too many first-gen Wii games, Banana Blitz is packed to the rafters with simple multiplayer minigames catering to casual audiences; what sets it apart is the fact that it also includes an insanely challenging single-player mode geared toward the determinedly hardcore.
Which, of course, leads to the obvious question for this and everything else on the Wii -- how's the control? Short answer: completely great.
Sega's put the Wii Remote to use in a variety of ways, but the solo game is the real test of the developers' chops. The controller's tilt sensitivity is put to use in an absolutely intuitive way. As you're steering a monkey in a Lucite ball through a hazardous maze, it makes perfect sense that the direction in which you tilt the controller determines the direction the monkey rolls. The one tricky bit to keep in mind is that you're actually controlling the stages, not the monkey. The angle of the Wii-mote determines the pitch of the field, just like one of those old wooden marble labyrinths. This makes tight turns approximately impossible, which can be deeply frustrating when you slightly overshoot an objective and spend 20 seconds making tiny little adjustments just to turn 180 degrees.
That little detail aside, the controls are a perfect fit for the game. Success requires a steady hand, though the touchiness that plagued the E3 version has been toned down; now the only frustration comes from the insanely ambitious levels seen in the later stages -- a deliberate design -- rather than from a playing field that flips and flops wildly. On the whole, the single-player mode is largely indistinguishable from the older Monkey Balls outside the presence of a much more fitting control interface.
The minigames, however, are a wholly different creature. These come in 50 different varieties with no unifying control scheme; some are super-simple (waving the Wii Remote) while others require use of the Nunchuk. The complexity of the games varies as well, ranging from Simon Says (a blink-and-it's-over exercise in lifting your controller pieces to match signals on the screen) to Monkey Golf (a robust disc-golf game). Not all 50 are winners, and sometimes the minigame instructions do more to confuse than to clarify, but there's enough good stuff here to more than compensate for the crap.
Wii owners are probably going to be burned out on minigame collections way before WarioWare: Smooth Moves arrives, which makes Monkey Ball a nice compromise. It's hardly revolutionary, but it makes smart use of the Wii hardware as it straddles the divide between hardcore and casual gamers. Come for the intricate and frequently difficult single-player mode; stay for the entertainingly goofy minigames guaranteed to hook your most obstinate nongaming loved ones.

Everest: After the avalanche
In April, an avalanche on Mt. Everest killed 16 Nepali Sherpa guides who were fixing ropes and ferrying supplies for their foreign clients to climb the 29,035-foot peak. The accident -- the deadliest in the history of Everest -- triggered a dispute between sherpa guides who wanted a climbing ban in honor of their colleagues and the Nepali government that refused to close the mountain. The sherpas staged a boycott, forcing hundreds of foreign climbers to call off their bids to climb Everest.

Floyd Mayweather-Robert Guerrero: Religion and May 4th
by Cliff Rold
One can only imagine the scene if there had been cameras and microphones in, approximately, 1000 BC.
"I'd like to thank God for allowing me to find just the right pebble. I knew Goliath was going to be a tough task, but when God is with you, can't nobody be against you."
There is plenty of religion in the air right now. It is time for celebrations of Passover and Easter. They are juxtaposed with U.S. Supreme Court cases confronting questions about the construct of marriage that pit distinctly secular arguments against the dominant legal status quo and outright points of faith.
In sports, religion is present every day of the year. It isn't always a focus in the games and contests viewers enjoy, but for many of the competitors it is at the core of what they do. It is also a steady source of conversation and debate among viewers who carry a variety of takes about the marriage of sport and spirituality.
This week, imminent Welterweight title challenger Robert Guerrero appeared on Pat Robertson's 700 Club. He also, at a press conference, stated that he believed God had put him in position to "humble" Welterweight Champion Floyd Mayweather.
Mayweather won't have to fight God on May 4th. To Guerrero, God will surely be in the ring. His family story, his wife's cancer survival, are the sorts of things that can fortify devoutness in believers.
There are some who will embrace Guerrero's overt religious display and others who will be offended by it. The right or wrong of this sort of invocation of faith are not the point here.
That it occurred, that it seems so woven into the fabric of primal competitions and combats, is unmistakable. The most graphic displays are often in wars where even secular combats become imbued with religious overtones. Norse mythology told of valkyries, women who would select of the greatest slain warriors and deliver them to their rewards. The Abrahamic faiths have been invoked in countless struggles over the centuries.
In sport, the stakes are less but that doesn't make the displays inherently subtler. Sometimes it can be the opposite. Every competitor doesn't participate, or care. Enough do. There appears no divorcing faith and competition.
Modern athletic calls to God, whether they be in the NFL during Ray Lewis's recent retirement tour, or in the boxing ring with Ferdie Pacheco trying to get Evander Holyfield to comment on the actual fight after upsetting Mike Tyson in 1996, are nothing new.
They weren't new at the time of David either. The ancient Greeks made a formal affair of it. The initial Olympic Games were held in honor of the Gods. In our world, God is regularly invited onto the field of play, prominently, in football and boxing.
There is hardly a football game, from Pop Warner to the Pro Bowl, that doesn't have a mass of praying players assembled before and after games. Even with someone as outspoken as Lewis, the religious factor can be somewhat contained in football. While displays can be seen on camera, interviews on the field after games are not consistently reverential. It depends on the player.
The same is less true in boxing. Watch more than one fight in a given weekend with a post-fight interview. Chances of hearing even a brief thanks to a deity, typically Christian, are high.
It's impossible to mistake the irony of two men attempting to concuss one another followed by the more successful of the two taking a moment of worship. It's also easy to see the draw. Boxing is dangerous.
While most of those who watch it put it out of their mind, it's always there.
Anytime two men step into the squared circle, there is a chance one of them will beat the other to death with his fists.
It's easy to see how the threat of death has a way of making one think about a maker. Those thoughts might be deep for some and superficial for others. The same could be said of their proclamations. It's still simple to understand where the connection is coming from.
Holyfield was his era's most outspoken when it came to religion. Infused with politics as well as faith, Muhammad Ali was just as overtly religious in his day. It's impossible to disregard their faiths as integral to who they were as athletes.
In the case of an athlete like Guerrero, blessed in his own life by his wife's victory over cancer, exposure to the threat comes in two directions. There is also the fear of just plain old defeat. Mayweather is a tough out, a puzzle no one else in this generation has solved. It's a cliché fused with truth: the mental aspect of sport is often as critical as the physical. Drawing on faith as part of the reservoir for preparation may be as important to Guerrero's chances as doing his roadwork.
In that sense, it doesn't matter whether or not his God really wants Guerrero to humble Mayweather. What matters for Guerrero is that he thinks it is the case. Even with his faith, the odds say Guerrero will lose.
But he might not be able to win without it.

Clear Creek High School senior Austin Hill attended school every day of his high school career — all 664 days — and he now has a flat-screen television to show for it.
Austin, 18, was the last honoree at the school's awards ceremony May 11 for his accomplishment, and school officials don't remember the last time a student reached this milestone.
Austin's 32-inch television comes courtesy of the Evergreen Walmart, which donated the TV at the request of Beau Campbell, the school's resource officer.
Dredging has begun at Evergreen Lake, and the work is expected to continue through mid-September.
The Evergreen Metropolitan District plans to remove about 12,000 cubic feet of sediment — much of it that flowed into the lake during the 2013 flooding — from the northern side of the lake.
The sediment will be dumped at the former transfer station on Highway 73. Twelve-thousand cubic feet is the equivalent of putting sediment nearly 6 feet deep onto an entire football field.
The Evergreen Area Chamber of Commerce has announced four students as recipients of the first-ever chamber scholarships.
The chamber chose four graduating seniors who are planning to study business to receive $1,000 college scholarships. The winners are Maya Dethlefs, Lauren Sneed and Alyssa Harris from Evergreen High School, and Justine Lane, who lives in Evergreen but attends D'Evelyn High School.
Jefferson County Road and Bridge is planning to build a large retaining wall, the size of a small building, at Kerr Gulch Road and Highway 74 in Kittredge.
The project, which will take 60 days and cost $185,000, is one of the most expensive on the list for construction this year in the mountain area, but has been pushed back to November through January.
The goal is to shore up the bank, which was weakened by flooding in 2013 and further compromised by heavy rains in 2014.
The Evergreen Park and Recreation District is looking forward to another booming year of stand-up paddleboarding and a list of other sports as summer grows closer and the allure of sunshine and sparkling water draws fun seekers back to Evergreen Lake.
The boating season was originally scheduled to open over the weekend, but inclement weather pushed the scheduled opening back to this Saturday.
After a busy winter of ice skating and hockey, Lake House manager Brad Bednar is ready for a different season.
Because of erosion, the Evergreen Park and Recreation District has closed a section of the Evergreen Lake Trail along Highway 74 from Upper Bear Creek Road to the top of the connector bridge near the dam.
A sign posted on the trail as of May 2 said, "Trail closed due to unsafe conditions." Orange sawhorses, green traffic cones and half a dozen gates have been installed along the walkway.
A new hotel could break ground as soon as this fall in the El Rancho area on vacant land at Tepees Way and Swede Gulch Road behind Home Depot and Walmart.
The project is rapidly making its way through the Jefferson County Planning and Zoning process, since the property is already zoned for commercial development and there is no need for rezoning or a public hearing before the Planning Commission.
A community meeting was held in October to introduce neighbors to the plan.
A gas stove flickers bright orange in the Evergreen Nature Center, where new executive director Colleen Kulesza pulls up a chair as raindrops hit Evergreen Lake outside. Built in the 1930s, the historic warming hut and its lack of central heating or plumbing was just one more inducement for Kulesza.
"Look at this building! It's gorgeous! Like, I could do that," she said.
Declines in property-tax revenue and changes in the Affordable Care Act are leading the Evergreen Fire Protection District to seek a property-tax increase and a bond issue.
The lodge at Ascent Church was transformed into a thrifty lady's paradise Saturday with the first Mountain Diva Fashion Swap, hosted by Evergreen Mothers of Preschoolers. To gain access to piles of gently used clothes and accessories, each woman donated $3 and a minimum of five items.
"I donated a lot of accessories and shoes. So, half the purses on the stage are from me," said Kara Brown, an Evergreen resident who was invited to the swap by friends. "I'm a hand-me-down junkie. So as many hand-me-downs as I can get, I'm good."

February 2, 2010
Exiled into deep space by the most powerful superheroes on Earth, the Incredible Hulk becomes an unlikely hero after crash landing on a distant planet. Millions of light years from Earth, the Red King rules planet Sakaar with an iron fist. When Hulk arrives on Sakaar, he is sold as a slave and forced to fight as a gladiator. The people of Sakaar need a savior, and as Hulk fights his way through a series of formidable opponents, he forms a powerful bond with four fearsome warriors. Later, along with the help of fellow combatants Miek, Korg, Hiroim, and Elloe, Hulk wages war on the despotic Red King. As the battle intensifies, it begins to appear that Hulk may be Sakaar's destroyer, rather than its savior. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Avalon Theatre looks to future with auction of vintage gear
Bay View residents may be having dinner and a movie flanked by gaudy vaudeville architecture and twinkling lights on the ceiling of the historic Avalon Theatre by Thanksgiving, said Lee Barczak, the Avalon's owner, at a news conference Friday.
An online auction of vintage theater items this week, including a wall-sized hand-painted Spanish mural and original seating from the theater's vaudeville days, is paving the way for $2 million in renovations, Barczak said. The renovations will transform the space, which at one time had a seating permit for up to 2,300 people, into two modern theaters with 240 and 80 seats, respectively, and in-theater dinner and bar service, while leaving vaudevillian facades of the original Avalon intact. Renovations could start in a month and a half after bids are finalized and awarded. A rendering could be ready in two months. »Read Full Article(8)
Sale of Channel 6 reflects value of local TV stations
Television reporters and anchors come and go. But TV stations are local institutions whose roots in the community can often date back decades.
Like other institutions today, they are facing challenges. But they also are increasingly valuable commodities because, as Will Rogers once said about real estate, they aren't making more of them. »Read Full Article(2)
A look at the decline of Milwaukee's middle class
We've heard the saying: If you're willing to work hard, you'll be able to make a living and build a better life for your children.
It's the theme that the middle class was built on, but a PBS "FRONTLINE" series, "Two American Families" set in Milwaukee, shows that even though a family can work extremely hard and play by the rules, the American Dream can still slip right through their hands. The show airs at 9 p.m. Tuesday on PBS. »Read Full Article(98)

When I contacted Office Max I talked to Marlena and she told me that wasall it covered. I asked to talk to a supervisor and spoke with Jackie. She informed me that I should have read the policy. I expect a reputable(?) company like Office Max to have honest, reliable employees. Their customer service employees were exceedingly rude. I also purchased a printer from another store and that transaction was very pleasant and expressly honest. Office Max needs to have a better control of their employees/managers and offer solutions when they are out and out liars!

That's why there are WRITTEN CONTRACTS, to eliminate the "he said," "she said."
What the clerk/cashier told you will be overriden by the written contract in EVERY instance.
"I expect a reputable(?) company like Office Max to have honest, reliable employees."
I would bet the employees are, for the most part, honest and reliable...experts, hardly.
These are people earning barely above minimum wage and shouldn't be relied on to give 100% accurate information, even if, ideally, yes they should be able to do.
I just re-read the 2 yr. replacement policy I got from Office Depot and it's pretty much what they told me. Some minor differences, but I don't see anything rising to the level of deception. Even if it disagreed with everything they told me, it would still be on me for not exercising caution and reading through it before purchase.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

text: Sinosoul blogger Tony Chen certainly doesn't back away from speaking his mind when something disagrees with his stomach. But yesterday, he went after a whopper, taking on the whole of Korean food in Los Angeles. Not just the restaurant Ttu Rak, mind you, but all of Korean-American restaurant offerings, including "big red bowls of sop looking like neon afterbirth." "Korean cuisine is a 2 trick donkey," Chen asserts, in one of the nicer things he has to say about either donkeys or the cooking. Despite some nasty slams on Korean cuisine, mathematical abilities, and one "rather designer-cute Korean food blog," the only comment made so far surprisingly supports his fire. [Sinosoul; Earlier]

Michael Clark tells NBC the Dennis Rader he knows was "a pleasant personality" who was active at Christ Lutheran Church.
Police believe Rader is responsible for three decades of terror in Wichita. He's being held on $10 million bond in the deaths of ten people between 1974 and 1991.
The city's mayor says the arrest means "people are able to sleep at night much better."
The killer gave himself the nickname BTK, which stands for "Bind, Torture, Kill."

"D3200 Focus Priority Only ?"
A quick question for D3200 users. Can you switch from focus priority to release priority ?I had a D3100 and it would only use focus priority. Given I prefer to focus using the central focus point and recompose, the camera often refused to take a picture if the central point ended up over an OOF area, or where there was no contrast, like a clear blue sky.That drove me nuts and I don't want another camera that tries to tell me when I can or can't take a picture !! I sold the D3100 because of this, although in other respects it was a good camera as a small back-up to my D700.BillNorth Berwick, ScotlandMy Website - https://images.nikonians.org/galleries/showgallery.php/cat/500/ppuser/162875" target="_blank">My Nikonians Gallery
