Members from the Human Rights Watch Student Task Force at Canyon and Valencia high schools met Monday at Valencia High School to raise awareness about the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, Sudan.
"Our job, as young people with a voice, is to speak out for those who don't have one," said Julia Price, 15-year-old president of the student task force at Canyon High School.
"We need to raise the awareness," Price said, "because a voice is only as strong as the people behind it."
About 450,000 people have been killed and 2.7 million displaced from their homes in Darfur since 2003. Local students have stepped up to help.
Six canvas tents were pitched in at the Valencia High School quad, where students passed through the display to learn from their peers about the victims of the genocide in Darfur, and what they can do to make a difference.
"People may think that there is nothing they can do, but the smallest act can make a big change," said Canyon senior Jessica Lopez, 17. "One person may not realize how powerful they are by just offering a hand to reach out, whether through donation or their time to raise awareness. We want to make each person feel that they do have that power to help."
The local schools worked together with Gabriel Stauring, founder of Camp Darfur, a Human Rights Watch program that simulates tents in a refugee camp at different high schools across America.
"We have taken this program to churches and universities all over the U.S., but it's so inspiring to see how the program becomes student-run when it gets to high schools," Stauring said.
"These students are so involved, seeing people as individuals instead of just numbers. This is where you can see that the future of our country is really strong."
Each student speaker gave a presentation to help fellow students become aware of the refugee situation and gain perspective about their own lives during the Monday event.
All six tents focused on a particular topic.
"This tent is to show you what life is like in a refugee camp right now," said Laurent Abergel, 15, of Valencia High, as he sat behind a table of food to show what Americans eat and what refugees eat in Darfur.
"We take for granted that we have everything, but everything has been taken away from them by violence and destruction. These people have been left with nothing."
"Here is a Dr. Pepper," Abergel said. "We just think of it as a soda, but people in the camps only get one gallon of water per day."
Refugees must drink and bathe for the day with one gallon, Abergel said.
Abergel's twin sister is actively involved in the organization to help raise awareness. Audrey Abergel, 15, is president of Valencia High's Student Task Force.
"It feels so good to educate people and see them brought together to do good in this world," Abergel said.
"If just one more person wants to help, then that is what it's all about. I am just glad to see that our focus as young people is about reaching out and connecting to the whole world."
The last tent in the sequence of six was called "Patchwork Quilt." Drawings from elementary school students across the United States were displayed, showing pictures of colorful square-shaped pictures of butterflies and peace signs, showing how they saw their lives in America.
The patches contrasted the drawings by children living in refugee camps in Darfur who showed scenes of violence, bloodshed and tears to represent the struggles of their lives.
"It's the world they've seen since they were born," Lopez said about the children in Darfur. "We hope to give them a better world, all of us together, one step at a time."
The students involved with the Task Force hope to present a petition to the United Nations later this year to declare genocide on the violent crimes against humanity in Sudan, making it possible to send in American peace troops to aid and support those in need.

Some of us take them – local businesses – for granted.
We shouldn't. Tomahawk retailers and service shops are jewels that make small communities, like ours, unique.
A strong community starts with us – consumers. When we use our paychecks to purchase items and services in Tomahawk, we're not only benefiting the local economy, we're also helping someone maintain a job, feed their own family with goods from the local grocery store, purchase school supplies from a local dime store and medicine from local pharmacies.
By dispensing our money here, we are ensuring that our own livelihoods are prosperous. If we went out of town for every special meal, what would happen to our local eateries? We wouldn't have a choice of where to go because we wouldn't have any to choose from.
As consumers our commitment to shopping locally doesn't mean we can't ever leave town. Sometimes it's fun to head out to new territories and make a day of it. But, when we do that on a regular basis – to buy items such as laundry detergent, groceries, dog food, clothing, office supplies, etc. – we're financially starving our neighbors, friends and relatives by not patronizing our local establishments where they are employed.
The Tomahawk Regional Chamber of Commerce started working with business owners a year ago by way of a business retention and expansion survey, and several follow-up meetings to help better understand the local consumer. The goal is to increase business traffic in town, to help keep Tomahawk thriving by offering shoppers unique items and top-notch service, a perk not found at large box stores located out of town.
The chamber's efforts will continue with another meeting slated Thursday (Jan. 5) beginning at noon at Tomahawk Community Bank for anyone who is interested in preserving our local retailers and service shops.
We hope you'll take notice of the growing problem of vacant storefronts (10 percent to be exact) and be more aware of your own shopping habits.
Help keep Tomahawk unique – shop locally.
(Editor's Note: We appreciate any ideas you might have as well as reasons you like shopping in Tomahawk.)

Crowds condemns rebellion of commanders
Alsahwah.net- Massive
crowds took into streets on Monday, condemning the rebellion of military
commanders against decrees issued by President Abdu Rabo Mansour Hadi two weeks
demanded Hadi and the government to arrest the former commander of the Air
Forces and the Tariq Mohmmad Abdullh Saleh who still refuse Saleh's decrees.
further asked to strip them from their military ranks, pointing out that
Saleh's family loots government institutions and spark turbulence across Yemeni
sources said Hadi threatened Al-Ahmar last Sunday with stripping him from
military rank and bring him to a military court in case if he continued his
rebellion against his decree.
had refused a decree of Hadi and sent armed men to surround Sana'a
International Airport. His armed men threatened to target civil airplanes, so
flights were canceled for an entire day in the wake of the decree.

TRAUMA, FICTION, HISTORY seminar series
School of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures
Dr Dora Osborne (University of Nottingham)
What Remains: Trauma and the Archive in Contemporary German Memory Culture
The archive stands in complex relation to history and fiction, perhaps no more so than when it carries the traces of traumatic impact. The notions of Trauma, Fiction, History, brought together in this research group, are of critical concern to post-1945 German Studies. In their configuration they ask questions of memory and witness, but also, increasingly and urgently, of the archive. What kind of archive material remains 'after Auschwitz'? And how is this used by artists and authors in the attempted representation of Germany's traumatic past? Drawing on examples from recent German-language literature (Durs Grünbein) and visual art (Anselm Kiefer), this paper will consider the relation of archive to Trauma, Fiction, History.

98 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - June 2010
Deep ruby-red. Knockout nose combines dark fruits, exotic Asian spices, coffee, violet and a leathery nuance. Extraordinarily pure, concentrated and youthful, with a juicy intensity of flavor that's almost painful today. The endless, slowly building finish features noble tannins and fruit, mineral and spice notes that refuse to quit. This extraordinary wine strikes me as virtually ageless: I can see coming back to it in another ten years and still finding it short of its peak.

For Harry Hamlin, Life After Ursula Andress Is a Time to Awake and Sing
Alas, the clash of the parents occurred four years later in 1983. Ursula was no longer quite so mad about Harry, nor Harry about Ursula, and they resettled in separate Los Angeles abodes. He now has returned with unbridled passion to a longtime love: the stage. Hamlin is currently making his Broadway debut in a revival of Clifford Odets' 1935 drama, Awake and Sing! Although the play, about a poor Jewish family in the Bronx, has been slammed as dated, Hamlin has been enthusiastically praised. The Hollywood glamour boy gone, he limps across the stage as Moe Axelrod, a greasy Depression-era thug with a wooden leg. "Moe's eccentricity fascinated me. He's a weirdo," says Harry, who prepared for the role with his typical gusto. He read everything he could find about mobsters and the Depression and rented a VCR to watch old Jimmy Cagney gangster movies. He even visited a factory manufacturing artificial legs.
Even less prestigious projects, such as the soapy CBS miniseries Master of the Game, get the full Hamlin treatment. For the part of Dyan Cannon's stuttering artist son, he hired a speech therapist. Harry also disappeared with an easel and paints into the Canadian woods for more than a week. On another project, the 1982 film Making Love, he joined a gay encounter group and hung out in gay bars to understand the psyche of his character, an aloof homosexual stud.
Hamlin's socially prominent parents might not have expected this dedicated actor's life from their son. His late father was an aeronautical engineer in Pasadena, Calif., where Harry's world revolved around debutante parties and private-school life. As an undergraduate at Yale, he majored in drama. Afterward, he joined the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco for four years. Harry then won a coveted Fulbright scholarship to study Shakespearean drama in London. But in 1978, when an offer came to play opposite George C. Scott in Movie Movie, Harry decided to forego the Fulbright. "There is a point when you have to stop adding to your résumé" he says.
Just think. Had he followed the Bard, Hamlin might not have had a chance to show off his toga-clad torso in his second film, Clash of the Titans, which he found preposterous. "They had one guy squirting me with baby oil and another who made sure one nipple was always exposed," groans Harry. But at least there was his Aphrodite, Ursula. "I sure didn't meet girls like her at the cotillion in Pasadena," Hamlin jokes. "Ursula is an amazing woman, warm and passionate with a good sense of humor, and I loved her deeply."
During the four years they were together, they did plan to marry, but never found the right time or place, he explains. "Neither of us wanted to do it in a post office or some hideous government building." More specifically, Harry blames the obvious obstacles—"our ages and different backgrounds."
Though their relationship has since soured, a common bond is son Dimitri. Harry tells Mickey Mouse and Snoopy stories to him every day over the phone. "He critiques his papa after each one," says Harry, smiling. To be near his boy whenever possible, the devoted dad maintains a bachelor bungalow in L.A. Harry's future, however, is most likely in New York, where he hopes for a stage career portraying "ethnic, real people. Playing WASPs like myself is not very interesting," he reports. Though there is no female co-star in Hamlin's life right now, it may be only a matter of time. As the man says, "I like passion in everything."

A dream that involves connecting buyers in the "west" DIRECTLY with the coffee farmers of Burundi. A dream steeped in vocabulary like "community" "skills" "full bellies" and "transformation." All the reasons we moved here in the first place. We know that this will only work if it's not "our project" but something the community values deeply. If this is really about change, it needs to be a group effort.
My 6-year-old played in the river right near a group of men who were washing their clothes on the land. I watched him and stood under the Eucalyptus trees to escape the heat with my crying three year old son. He was clinging to me along with all of my camera gear. Not my finest moment by the looks of it, but inside I was was smiling. I couldn't help but remember all the times I've wanted to LEAVE this place. Every moment that "getting out of here" felt like the best option for our family. Every moment when life in this part of Africa felt too hard. Too intense. Too complicated. Of course, I started to cry just like my 3 year old son was doing. Life here still can be all of those things, but this place is also responsible for shaping our family in ways that I am so grateful for. It's shaped us in ways that are now such a part of me that living with our new shape feels just as easy as breathing in and breathing out.
The last one and a half years adjusting to life here (and we still don't have our heads screwed on straight most days) have been the most difficult of my existence, hands down, but they have also been the greatest. I have never felt like a bigger failure or more out of place EVERY DAY than I have felt living here. I think it's true what people say, "You remember the hard stuff." It's true, because the hard stuff shapes you. How it shapes you, I believe, is your choice. I feel grateful that our sons are old enough to see this part of the journey, the part where we begin to help people in a way that makes a real difference to both them and us. I know that the hard stuff is not just "over" now that we own a piece of Africa. Our workload is actually quickly approaching the "impossible" level. I will say though that this piece of Africa has given me roots here in a way I didn't expect. I feel connected to our dream more that ever, especially when I place my feet on the land it will be formed on.

This Sunday's Browns-Steelers game at Heinz Field looked like an intriguing end to the 2008 regular season when the schedule was announced in April.
The Browns had been coming off a decent 2007 season and were supposed to be the Steelers' top challenge for the AFC North title.
Now, the game is essentially meaningless with the Browns starting their fourth-string quarterback against the Steelers, who can neither hurt nor help their playoff position.
Who would have thought the Browns-Steelers would rank near the bottom of significant week 17 games while the Dolphins-Jets would be near the top?
Remember this when the 2009 schedule is announced this coming April. It's fun to analyze the schedule in the offseason, but it rarely pans out the way it's predicted.
Looking ahead
Speaking of the 2009 schedule, the Steelers already know 15 of their 16 opponents for next year.
The only team that hasn't been determined is the AFC East champion, which will visit Heinz Field next year. Other home games next season will be the Chargers, Raiders, Vikings, Packers, Ravens, Bengals and Browns.
The road schedule will be highlighted by another trip to Nashville. So, if the Steelers don't get a chance to pay back the Titans in the AFC Championship next month, they'll at least get a shot in 2009.
Other road games will be at the Broncos, Chiefs, Bears, Lions, Ravens, Bengals and Browns.
It may be safe to say the Steelers won't have the NFL's "toughest" schedule again next year.
History on their side
Even if the Steelers lose Sunday, they will finish the season with an 11-5 mark.
The Steelers have finished with 11 or more wins in 11 previous seasons and have advanced to the AFC Championship in 10 of those 11 years.
The only year they didn't make it to the AFC Championship was in 1992, Bill Cowher's first season, when they went 11-5 and lost to the Bills in the first round.
Steelers' MVP
It's tough to argue with James Harrison's selection as the Steelers' MVP. The voting is done by the players.
One had to figure a defensive player would get the award, and Harrison has been the most visible player with a team-record 16 sacks.
The defense has been so good, though, that the MVP should have somehow rewarded the entire unit. In that regard, defensive captain James Farrior would have been just as good of a choice.
NFL Week No. 17
Game of the week: Dolphins at the Jets, 4:15 p.m. Sunday (CBS). This one should have been the NBC 8:15 game.
Upset special: Dolphins (+21/2) at the Jets.
Fantasy tip: Arizona needs to play well to get some momentum heading into the playoffs. Playing at home against Seattle should help that.

Texas Lawmakers Push Abortion Bill Forward
Wendy Davis' filibuster and the hours of subsequent debate didn't deter the bill's supporters in the House. It now goes to the State Senate.
Becca Aaronson
How House lawmakers voted on #hb2 #txlege
House Bill 2 — the Texas legislation that would increase regulations for abortion providers and ban abortions at 20 weeks — met approval in the Texas House of Representatives Tuesday night with a 98-49 vote.
In the two weeks since Democratic Sen. Wendy Davis attempted to kill the bill with a 13-hour filibuster, demonstrators have flooded the State Capitol in Austin. Many even signed up Monday to give public testimony for or against the proposed law.
Support for the bill eventually prevailed, with Davis herself admitting Tuesday that HB 2 was likely to pass.
"It will be very difficult because unfortunately the voices that have been here crying out against this bill are not going to be heard," she told CNN. "But I don't think it's the end. It's the beginning of a battle line."
On Tuesday, Texas lawmakers sat through more than 10 hours of discussion on the bill before casting their votes.
The Capitol's protesters weren't happy with the result.

CLARKSBURG - Alex Baird fired an 8-over par round of 78, finishing second individually and leading the Elkins High School golf team to a third-place finish Monday in the Big 10 Conference golf tournament at the Clarksburg Country Club.
Bridgeport's Marco Oliverio fired a 77 to take medalist honors, helping the Indians to finish fifth in the 12-team match.
North Marion, led by Ryan Powell's 78 and Caleb Lee's 79, captured the team title with a total score of 326.
Fairmont Senior took second at 334, followed by Elkins at 337.
"Our goal was to try to win the tournament," Elkins coach Dave Baird said. "But some of our players didn't have their best day. I was happy to see Alex and Kelsi (Trippett), being seniors in their last conference match, make the all-conference team."
Alex Baird made the first-team list, while Trippett fired an 86 to earn a nod on the second team. Braden Hammond shot an 85 to also earn a spot on the second team.
Others competing for the Tigers Monday were Kollin Hopwood (88), Brendan Cain (93) and Kole Hopwood (94).
Philip Barbour finished seventh overall in the match, posting a team score of 364.
Logan Collins led the way for the Colts with an 85, followed by Luke Freeman (89), Caleb Hawkins (93), Jacob Nestor (97), Zach Howdershelt (98) and Tyler Clifton (99).
"The conditions were tough today," Philip Barbour coach Doug Kirkpatrick said. "A lot of pin placements were sucker pins, meaning if you missed the pin, you were going to put up a big score. But we shot our average, so we're pleased. All we can do is get better."
Buckhannon-Upshur took ninth in the tournament, as the golfers combined to card a 367 score. Dalton Westfall led the way with an 87, followed by Jacob Hinzman (90), Dalton Crislip (92), Stetson West (98) and Jeffrey Davis (131).
"We didn't quite play up to our potential," B-U coach Chris Gow said. "It was just one of those days."
Lewis County finished in 10th place and was led by Aaron Hall with a 93. Mark Moran shot 95, followed by Chris Weaver (98), Jared Myers (105), Jacob Davisson (111) and Bryson Butcher (117).
The regional qualifier for the state tournament will be held Sept. 24. Elkins, Buckhannon-Upshur and Lewis County will travel to Stonewall Resort for an 18-hole Class AAA?match. Philip Barbour will head to the Valley View Golf Course in Moorefield for the Class AA competition.

DOE A to Z: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
The New Jersey Senate confirmed David Hespe as Commissioner of Education on December 18, 2014.
Mr. Hespe is an accomplished leader with decades of public service in New Jersey. His prior service at the Department included working as the Education Commissioner from 1999 through 2001; Assistant Commissioner for the Division of Executive Services from 1997 to 1998; and Chief of Staff during the first term of the Christie Administration.
Commissioner Hespe returned to service in the Department of Education because he believes we all share a very simple goal – to help the nearly 1.4 million students in New Jersey's schools grow and excel so they can be adequately prepared for college and careers. He oversees the continued implementation of college- and career-readiness standards, the new teacher and principal evaluation system, the transition to online testing as developed by the PARCC consortium, and building innovative models of education that meet 21st century requirements.
In addition to his experience at the Department of Education, Commissioner Hespe most recently served as President and Chief Executive Officer of Burlington County College, overseeing an enrollment of more than 10,000 students across four campuses. He also served as an Associate Professor of Educational Leadership at Rowan University's College of Education, where he was Department Chair for five years. As the former Assistant Superintendent and later Interim Superintendent of Schools for the Willingboro School District, he oversaw the administration of all activities of the district and the development and implementation of its programs and goals.
Mr. Hespe also developed and implemented STEM-based educational programs, activities and content for Liberty Science Center during his tenure there as Co-Executive Director and Vice President of STEM Education. His invaluable knowledge and experience in STEM-based programs and activities helped to increase interest and awareness of the importance of science, technology, engineering and mathematics curricula and programs – all of which are crucial components to ensuring that New Jersey's students are ready to compete in a global economy.
Commissioner Hespe holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Rutgers University and a Law Degree from the University of Rutgers-Newark. He began his career as a law clerk at the Mercer County Superior Court and then joined a private law firm before entering public service in 1989 as Associate Counsel at the New Jersey Office of Legislative Services. Mr. Hespe went on to serve as Assistant Counsel in Governor Whitman's Office and later served as First Assistant Attorney General.
He and his wife Cindy have a son in college.

Head teachers accused England's chief schools inspector of presiding over a "climate of fear" and demoralising teachers with attacks on classroom standards.
In sharp exchanges, a series of school leaders yesterday criticised his blunt approach and claimed that Sir Michael Wilshaw was out of touch with the way inspectors behaved within schools.
School leaders at the conference had been invited to submit written questions in advance to be put to Sir Michael, meaning that he was effectively ambushed by the head teachers' union.
He gave a battling performance in response, telling his audience some head teachers were not good enough

Making Fishery Agreements Work
(27.02.2012) Why do people obey the law? And why do states abide by their international commitments? These are among the questions raised in a new book by FNI Research Director
Geir Hønneland
The setting is the Barents Sea, home to some of the most productive fishing grounds on the planet, including the worlds largest cod stock. Norway and Russia manage these fish resources together, in what appears to be a successful exception to the rule of failed fisheries management: stocks are in good shape, institutional cooperation is expanding and takes place in a constructive atmosphere.
The Barents Sea fishery is seen as one of the best-managed international fisheries in the world, and the book specifically enquires into the lessons to be learnt from the NorwegianRussian partnership.
Hønneland argues that post-agreement bargaining helps activate norms and establish standard operating procedure that furthers precautionary fisheries management.
- Quite conspicuously, Russia has largely complied with its international obligation to conduct precautionary fisheries management in the Barents Sea, while at the same time scolding this policy for being anti-Russian, says Geir Hønneland.
- In the Barents Sea fisheries management, Russia has followed suit more or less unwillingly, with Norway at the wheel. Transnational seafaring norms and good-neighbourly relations may have tuned the negotiators in on a pro-compromise wavelength, but institutional factors can also explain Russia's compliance, he says.
- Norway has had considerable success in its attempts to influence Russian through post-agreement bargaining, at technical or scientific levels and in direct contact between the heads of delegation. Hence, Russia has gradually spun itself into an institutional web of continuously more elaborate decision-making procedures, with Norway taking the leading role after the end of the Cold War.
- There has also been a 'drive towards compromise' in the Joint Norwegian-Russian Fisheries Commission that has sometimes overshadowed strictly defined national interests, or at least led the parties to interpret such interests as positively as they could, weighing them up against the possibility of reaching agreement. Compromise has become the institutional hallmark of the Joint Commission, Hønneland concludes.

Making Fishery Agreements Work: Post-Agreement Bargaining in the Barents Sea
. Cheltenham/Northampton, MA, Edward Elgar, 2012, 160 p. ISBN 978-0-85793-362-1.
About the author
Geir Hønneland
is Research Director at the Fridtjof Nansen Institute and adjunct professor at the Department of Sociology, Political Science and Community Planning, University of Tromsø. He works mainly with questions related to international environmental and resource management in the Arctic.
Oran Young
, University of California, Santa Barbara, US:
'Environmental governance is not just a matter of laying down clear rules and regulations and then finding ways to enforce them. Developing the idea of post-agreement bargaining and drawing on his exceptional knowledge of the world-class fisheries of the Barents Sea, Geir Hønneland illuminates the ongoing processes of interpretation, mutual accommodation, and adjustment to changing circumstances that play an essential role in making environmental regimes work.'
Jesper Raakjær
, Aalborg University, Denmark:
This book provides very detailed insights to how fisheries agreements can shape norms and set standards leading to a high degree of compliance and well-managed fisheries. The book provides a very comprehensive description of the development of the management of the Barents Sea fishery since the 1990s, including an impressive account of the NorwegianRussian fisheries negotiations. The book provides an important contribution to and further advances our understanding on the factors influencing rule-compliance in fisheries and in fact beyond.
David Fluharty
, University of Washington, US:
In Making Fishery Agreements Work, Geir Hønneland extends his reputation as a leading scholar on Norwegian/Russian fisheries relationships. His new contribution focuses on the complicated and hard to track post-bargaining processes that can be used to improve compliance over time in situations with large power differentials. Well grounded in compliance theory and common property resource management, Hønnelands interviews and personal observations capture the empirical motivations that underlie compliance in joint Barents Sea fisheries.
Bonnie McCay
, Rutgers University, US:
Fishing vessels plying the cold waters of the Barents Sea provide the empirical basis for this extraordinary effort to answer the question of what it takes for people and their governments to make and stick to agreements and follow the rules. Based on years of study of arrangements between Norway and the Soviet Union/Russia and interviews with the captains of the fishing ships that seek cod and other species in the far north, Hønneland brings findings and theory from many disciplines to the question. In so doing he offers a powerful argument about how post-agreement bargaining at both state and individual levels contributes to compliance and hence sustainable fisheries.
Nikolas Sellheim
, University of Lapland, Finland:
'There are not many scientific books that one can read almost as like a crime story. But Geir Hønneland's latest book Making fisheries agreements work is such a book as it takes the reader onto a journey of meeting room deliberations and offshore inspection. [ ] Through Hønneland's lively and personal account on the working processes in the different committees and on board the ships the reader does not want to stop reading! But also from an academic perspective this book provides utterly valuable insights [ ] This book is indeed a very beautiful and highly recommendable linkage between institutional theory and practice [ ] and an outstanding case study.'

Paul Perschmann believed that pro wrestling should be fun.
That's why, as the entertaining, over-the-top character Playboy Buddy Rose, he always seemed to be enjoying himself in the ring as much as the fans who jeered and cheered him for three decades.
Rose, Perschmann's alter ego, didn't exactly look the role of a wrestler or a playboy. But he worked hard over the years to master his craft and turned his rotund physical appearance into a money-drawing gimmick that served him well in the ring.
Rose's wife found him late Tuesday afternoon in their Vancouver, Wash., home, sitting in his favorite chair, in front of the television set. He had died, apparently peacefully, at the much-too-young age of 56.
Friends say he had been dealing with numerous health problems, including blood sugar issues and diabetes, and that his weight obviously played a factor. The medical examiner's office said he died of natural causes.
"Every day I get up is a gift. I abused my body. I worked my (behind) off, but it took its toll," Rose confided to wrestling journalist Greg Oliver in a 2006 interview.
Despite possessing a body that was far from perfect, Playboy Buddy Rose was a consummate heel who left a lasting impression in every territory he worked. He humorously claimed a "slim, trim 217," although his actual weight was closer to 317 and had ballooned even more in later years.
Rose's girth belied a great worker who took exceptional bumps for a man his size. Rose would claim he was "heavy in the seat, but light on the feet," and that was accurate, as he was deceivingly agile and cat-like in the ring, doing one-arm pushups as part of his gimmick.
While he possessed a sense of humor and timing, he also could cut effective promos and draw serious heat in a ring.
Honing his craft with the likes of Verne Gagne and Billy Robinson in his native Minneapolis, Rose began his career in 1973 as a clean-cut babyface. His first match was a 15-minute draw against another Gagne trainee, Bob Remus, who later would achieve success as the iconic Sgt. Slaughter.
Rose hit it big several years later in the Pacific Northwest where, under the guidance of Roddy Piper, he blossomed into a main-event attraction, drawing huge houses against future Hall of Famers Piper and Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka.
A star for Don Owen's Portland-based promotion, Rose literally set the territory on fire when he stole Piper's Scottish quilt and set it ablaze in a hardcore TV angle. Brutal matches followed, with Rose often teaming with Ed Wiskoski (later known as Col. DeBeers) against Piper and Killer Tim Brooks.
"I told him I thought he was going to be money in the bank if he just played his cookies right," said former wrestling star Dutch Savage, who owned part of the promotion at the time. "His first match here was a tag-team match with Snuka and myself. Piper came in from L.A. the latter part of '78, and we had a good run here for awhile. And then I retired in 1980. I made some money with him in Seattle and a few other places."
"He was an excellent worker and was easy to get heat with," Savage added. "He listened. He did what was right."
Rose, an eight-time Pacific Northwest champ and 12-time NWA Pacific Northwest tag-team titleholder, became a mainstay on the Portland-Seattle circuit where he eventually settled down.
"If you had a family, you sacrificed a lot," Rose told Mike Aldren of The (U.K.) Sun. "If you had a good wife who totally supported you, which I have, you could make it through anything. I was so fortunate to be able to work the Northwest. I could be home every night, and that's one reason I stayed there so long."
His image as the unlikely high-rolling, jet-setting playboy, usually accompanied by a bevy of glamorous ladies, earned him further exposure when he joined the World Wrestling Federation in the early '80s. His feud with champion Bob Backlund generated sellouts at Madison Square Garden.
Rose later became the answer to a popular wrestling trivia question - he competed in the very first Wrestlemania match in 1985 - under a mask as The Executioner in the opener with Tito Santana.
"I was asked to be part of the card, but George Scott, who was the booker at that time, didn't want Playboy Buddy Rose to lose - they had other plans for me," recalled Rose, who already was wrestling full-time for the WWF (now WWE) at that point. "That's the reason for me becoming The Executioner for the first and only time in my career."
Drug issues, however, curtailed his New York push. And his weight began to spiral out of sight.
"Buddy was a good hand, but he was his own worst enemy," said Savage. "He kept shooting himself in the foot, and it got him in trouble a lot."
"You've got to take care of the machinery or the machinery won't take care of you," added Savage. "Buddy got really big. I think he got up to around 340 at one time."
"I went to rehab myself, for cocaine, as an outpatient. It was a choice," Rose once said. "When we make the wrong choices and go down the wrong path, it's either jail or death ... The best thing I ever did was to go to that six weeks of outpatient rehab. My wife has been with me since 1976. She and I had a talk, and we decided the cocaine was a problem. I could have lost her, so I did the best thing I ever did, and I graduated."
Perhaps Rose's greatest claim to fame was when he returned to Minneapolis to work for his old teacher, Gagne, in 1986 and joined Pretty Boy Doug Somers in an intense rivalry with a rising young team known as The Midnight Rockers - Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty. With Sherri Martel as their manager, the platinum-haired duo engaged in a brutal and bloody feud with Michaels and Jannetty throughout Gagne's AWA territory.
A televised match between the two teams in 1986 is considered a classic and still makes the rounds on ESPN Classic's AWA series. The program with Rose and Somers, Michaels would later admit, helped put the future Heartbreak Kid on the wrestling map.
Rose, by then carrying more than 300 pounds on his 5-8 frame, would return for another stint in WWF rings in 1990, humorously promoting a product known as the "Blow Away Diet." And despite his even bigger girth of being 317 pounds, Rose would correct the ring announcer of his weight, adamantly contending he was a "slim, trim 217."
Rose would apply some white dust, bait the crowd into a booing frenzy and magically "blow away" excess poundage. The magic power, however, was nothing more than Tide laundry detergent.
"I didn't lose any weight, but I sure smelled a lot better," Rose told Steve Johnson of the SLAM Wrestling site. "It was a part of the gimmick."
"He knew what his role was, and he always seemed to press the right buttons to make himself a most unique character that stood out from the rest of the pack," WWE Hall of Fame announcer Howard Finkel posted last week on the WWE Web site.
"As soon as I came through the door, I turned back to Paul Perschmann. I was Paul Perschmann in the dressing room, and Buddy Rose only in front of the people," the wrestler told Oliver.
Wiskoski, who Rose met in the mid-'70s while traveling through the Kansas City territory and who became one of his closest friends, told a Portland news station last week that he had last talked to Rose a couple of weeks ago. He said they reminisced about the days when videotape was new and his partner used to watch himself wrestling.
"He was critiquing himself. I did this right and I did this wrong," said Wiskoski, who once operated a wrestling school with Rose. "He was a genius in the ring. Wrestling was his love. He played hockey and baseball. He was a good athlete."
The two were both honored by the Cauliflower Alley Club in 2004.
Rose's enjoyment being in a ring was reflected by the fact that he loved "gimmick" matches. After losing a "hair vs. hair" match years ago, Rose spent the next several months wearing a mask. Not just any mask, but one that had bleached blond hair sewn into it.
He even once competed in a "loser eats dog food" match.
"I had one match in which the public thought it was dog food, but it was spinach that I heated up at home in the microwave and put into a Tupperware container until match time," he joked. "I love spinach, so the 'throwing up' part didn't bother me at all, and the effect of it coming out was like 'The Exorcist' all over again."
Rose always credited his early training with his success.
"I was trained by two of the best in the business, Verne Gagne and Billy Robinson," he recalled. "They demanded a certain level of dedication and quality in my work, otherwise I never would have made it into the business. We were trained to be able to do our very best night after night for years without hurting ourselves or others in the process."
The business, he noted, had changed dramatically over the years.
"This is what separates us from the wrestlers of today who only work about 150 times a year (if they are lucky), many of which get injured or get hurt permanently because of today's style. We worked 365 days a year for years. The pro wrestling I knew is a lost art these days."
Rose, who reportedly weighed nearly 400 pounds at the time of his death, once told Oliver that, when all was said and done, he was content.
"I'm pretty happy with everything I've done in my life. I've seen the world on somebody's else's dime ... You couldn't get any better job."
- LeMarcus Skipper, the 22-year-old son of former WCW and TNA performer Elix Skipper, was gunned down Wednesday in the Columbus, Ohio, apartment where he was living with his grandmother.
Skipper was shot multiple times after answering a knock at his door. Police reports say at least two men barged in and one of them fired a gun. Skipper's grandmother identified a man captured by police after the shooting.
- The ever-popular midget wrestlers will return to The Joe this Thursday night with three-time defending champion Little Kato defending his title against Bad Boy Brian. The event will be held towards the end of the Charleston RiverDogs-Asheville Tourists game. First pitch is at 7:05 p.m.

Russia refuses to exonerate its last czarBreaking News
The refusal to issue an official rehabilitation decree for the czar and his family, executed by a Bolshevik firing squad in 1918, comes after a two-month investigation by prosecutors who said they did not find evidence that the killings were officially ordered.
The decision sparked outrage among Russian royalists and surviving members of the Romanov family. Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna, who heads one of the dynasty's senior branches, vowed to continue her campaign in the Russian courts.
More than four million Russians who were jailed or executed for political reasons during Soviet times have been cleared in recent decades -- a process formally known as rehabilitation.
But under Russian law, rehabilitation can only come if it can be shown that the victim either stood trial or was executed on the orders of Soviet authorities.
Historians are divided as to whether the czarist executions were carried out solely, and therefore illegally, on the orders of the Ural Regional Soviet, or whether they were sanctioned by Lenin and the Soviet Central Executive Committee.
The prosecutor's office appears to have concluded that the family was murdered, rather than the victims of politically motivated execution, and therefore cannot be rehabilitated.
Since the fall of the Soviet Union, Russia has engaged in intense soul searching over the deaths of the czar's family. In 1998, Nicholas, his wife and three of their five children were exhumed and reburied in St. Petersburg.
Former president Boris Yeltsin attended the funeral, and described the executions as "one of the most shameful pages in our history."
But royalists say those words were not enough and a legal directive is necessary if Russia is to lay to rest the demons of its past.
"We believe that this rehabilitation is necessary for the Russian state itself to show the world that it has denounced the crimes of the Soviet era, not just in words, but also in deeds," said Alexander Zakatov, a representative of the Grand Duchess.
The Orthodox Church, which has canonized the czar and his family, has said official rehabilitation is unnecessary given that the victims are now regarded as saints.

BOSTON (AP) - A man allegedly trained by Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida terrorist network pleaded innocent Friday to trying to blow up a trans-Atlantic flight with bombs hidden in his shoes.
Richard C. Reid, a 28-year-old British citizen, shuffled into a federal courtroom in shackles and answered "not guilty" to eight charges, including the attempted murder of 197 passengers and crew members aboard an American Airlines flight last month. A judge also entered an innocent plea on his behalf to a ninth charge.
Reid was initially charged with interfering with a flight crew. New charges issued this week accuse him of having been trained in Afghanistan and of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction.
He could receive five life sentences if convicted.
Reid was subdued by flight attendants and passengers on the Paris-to-Miami flight Dec. 22 after he allegedly attempted to light a fuse protruding from his shoes.
"If it weren't for them this most definitely would have been a disaster," Charles Prouty, special agent in charge of the Boston FBI office, said after the hearing.
Authorities said each shoe contained a plastic explosive often used by terrorists. They said the homemade bombs could easily have ripped a hole in the plane if Reid had successfully ignited them.
The case is being prosecuted in Boston because the plane was diverted to the city's Logan International Airport.
Among the charges is attempted wrecking of a mass transportation vehicle, a new charge created by Congress in an anti-terrorism bill enacted after the Sept. 11 attacks.
Reid's attorney, Tamar Birckhead, asked U.S. Magistrate Judge Judith Dein to enter an innocent plea on Reid's behalf because there was a "potential defect" in the charge. She questioned whether the American flight would qualify for the charge.
"To allege that a 767 airplane is a vehicle, let alone is a vehicle used in urban mass transportation, is a stretch," Birckhead said.

Destroying the Southbank's concrete skateboarder colony to build more shops and cafés would be cultural vandalism
From Hampstead to Hackney, Primrose Hill to Clapham, the comfortably housed refer to their patches of urban London as "villages". The implication is that artisan bakeries and a Save Our Library campaign add up to Miss Marple's St Mary Mead.
It's a healthy instinct, even when mildly ridiculous. So there is something attractive in a quixotic campaign launched in a less exclusive quarter. The Long Live Southbank movement's lawyers have applied to have the grey, graffiti-spattered concrete underbelly of the brutalist 1960s centre classified and protected as a village green.
It seems that a "community space" under the Commons Act

Ivar Sandström, recorder in the department of anatomy at the University of Upsala, was the first to identify as specific structures the small bodies posterior to the lateral lobes of the thyroid and to give them their current name.1 The description of the gross and microscopic appearance of the parathyroids was communicated to the Upsala Journal of Science in 1880, but the document remained untranslated into English in its entirety for more than 50 years.2 Although the small bodies had been described earlier by Remak and Virchow, it was Sandström, before he had completed his medical training, who recognized these structures in man and animals as something distinct from lymph or accessory thyroid tissue.
The curriculum vitae of the discoverer is incomplete, but it is known that he was born in Stockholm, to the Secretary of Agriculture and his wife. He matriculated at the University of Upsala, and

Royal Bride
Diana, the Princess of Wales, May Have Those Newlywed Blues, but She's Still Britain's Darling and one of PEOPLE's Most Intriguing
Marriages made in heaven must come down to earth sometime. For Prince Charles and Diana, that sometime is now.
People close to Prince Charles admit that the royal family is concerned about its newlyweds. "Quite simply, Diana freaked out," says one member of her inner circle. "Those stuffy rituals that royalty must perform became too much for her." Other acquaintances claim she has tried to rule Charles' life. "Diana," says one, "has become more royal than the Queen."
Now 21, Diana has banished from her home many of her 34-year-old husband's lady friends (and two of Charles' valets). One evening she walked out in the middle of a dinner for her husband's polo chums, saying that she had "never been so bored."
In October, when Charles and Diana were at Balmoral, the weather was so appalling they could not even go on walks. Charles thoughtfully had her friends flown up to take her mind off the elements, but Diana demanded that they return to London.
Last month Britain's tabloids speculated that the Princess was suffering from anorexia nervosa, the weight-loss obsession. Although Diana is very thin and is watching her diet, she is not anorexic. She simply follows the axiom that has been attributed to the Duchess of Windsor: "No woman can be too rich or too thin."
Friends say that Diana has had to grow up too quickly. Only two years ago she was an ordinary, if privileged, teenager, bicycling to work at a fashionable London kindergarten in jeans and scuffed shoes. Now she is followed by photographers, whose unrelenting attention sometimes bothers her. Psychiatric help for Diana reportedly has been discussed to guide her through the difficult times ahead, as it did for the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret. "She needs at least six months free from personal scrutiny by the press," says an aide.
It might have been better, palace officials admit privately, if Diana had been allowed a few years to settle down with Charles before they had children. But the popular demand to provide an heir to the throne won the day. Now she is destined to spend the next 15 years with children around. There was a disagreement at the palace over whether William would be allowed to accompany his parents on their tour of Australia this spring. Diana wanted him along, persevered, and the Queen finally agreed. (When the heir is older, William and Charles may have to take separate planes.)
Diana's position as Princess of Wales seemed for a while to have gone to her head. Her extravagant shopping sprees—racking up an estimated $150,000 to $250,000 a year for clothes—began to offend a doting British public. (Recently she has taken to recycling some of her old clothes.) Diana is often accompanied to the stores by her mother, Mrs. Frances Shand Kydd, clearly the most influential person in her life. When Mrs. Shand Kydd's first marriage, to Earl Spencer, ended in 1969, she lost custody of her four children and was shunned by the Establishment. Diana's new independence may reflect her mother's distaste for the world that dumped her.
Diana knew what she was getting into and for much of 1982 was rebelling against it. After she felt the sting of bad press, though, Diana summoned a new lease of enthusiasm and booked a schedule which for a time was busier than her husband's—e.g., visiting a hospital and attending a ballet gala and the premiere of E.T. She still has the style and the spunk that make the Britons who come out to see her say, "You're beautiful, luv."

Awesome lady and sadly missed. Boeuf Bourguignon comes to mind first and although not a recipe per say, her method for cooking an omelette rocks this world!
So tomorrow is Julia Child's birthday and we're having a dinner in honour of the renowned chef at my house tomorrow. Now while she wasn't necessarily primal, I'd say she was often on the right track!
Julia Child: "I think it's terrible what fear of fat has done to a lot of our industries. They have ruined the beef industry. We now have second class beef. Only two per cent of our beef is prime, and it's all because of these 'fear of fat people'. They don't want to eat a marbled steak, so it means that the beef has very little flavor any more. It's really something. A lot of people will say, 'oh, I don't like beef very much anyway' and no wonder, because they've ruined it."
Q: What about pork?
Julia: "And they've ruined pork as well."
Jacques Pepin: "When I first came to this country [from France] people liked butter on their bread, and it was fine. Now we are 30% fatter than we were then. After 15 years of torture and total obsession about fat, we are 30% fatter."
Julia (describing a TV interview with a "diet expert"): "He was one of those diet doctors who didn't eat any fat at all...he was a yellowish greenish looking man. He died fairly early...if he'd had a decent meal or two, he might still be around....The thing is: Don't pay any attention to those people at all."
So I was wondering if folks had any favourite Julia recipes that are primal, or pretty durned close, that I could use or modify for dinner tomorrow?
Thank you, and Bon Appetit !
Awesome lady and sadly missed. Boeuf Bourguignon comes to mind first and although not a recipe per say, her method for cooking an omelette rocks this world!
You'll never see the light if you're in someone else's shadow, or said another way, life is like a dog sled team, if you're not the lead dog, the scenery never changes
Her Boeuf Bourguignon made me a lover of beef stew, rather than a hater. <3 I first made a hollandaise from her recipe, and immediately wept at the magnificence that could be created from butter, egg yolks and lemon juice...
Oh yes, I don't know where I'd be in the kitchen without having learned to make bachemel, hollandaise, and demi-glace sauces from Julia
Yes, I did intend to make the Beef Bourguignon but the recipe seems to be so complicated, and it is supposed to be one of the easy ones. Seems like a lot of steps ... like boiling the bacon.
all i know is that when i eat butter, i think of julia! i eat a lot of butter people;-)
sounds like fun though
Red meat is not bad for you. Now blue-green meat, that's bad for you! ~Tommy Smothers
Oh KestrelSF, it is worth it. Worth every seemingly tedious step.
Supremes de Volaille aux Champignons (Chicken Breasts with Mushroom and Cream)
4 supremes (boneless, skinless chicken breasts)
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
Big pinch white pepper
5 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced shallot or green onion
1/4 pound diced or sliced fresh mushrooms
1/8 teaspoon salt
For the sauce: 1/4 cup white or brown stock or canned beef bouillon
1/4 cup port
1 cup whipping cream
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons minced parsley
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Rub the chicken breasts with drops of lemon juice and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a heavy, oven-proof casserole, about 10 inches in diameter until it is foaming. Stir in the minced shallots or green onion and saute a moment without browning. Then stir in the mushrooms and saute lightly for a minute or two without browning. Sprinkle with salt. Quickly roll the chicken in the butter mixture and lay a piece of buttered wax paper over them, cover casserole and place in hot oven. After 6 minutes, press top of chicken with your finger. If still soft, return to oven for a moment or two. When the meat is springy to the touch it is done. Remove the chicken to a warm platter (leave mushrooms in the pot) and cover while making the sauce (2 to 3 minutes). To make sauce, pour the stock and wine in the casserole with the booking butter and mushrooms. Boil down quickly over high heat until liquid is syrupy. Stir in the cream and boil down again over high heat until cream has thickened slightly. Off heat, taste for seasoning, and add drops of lemon juice to taste. Pour the sauce over the chicken, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
Serves 4.

There is an Ina Garten beef bourgignon recipe that is simplified from Julia's original. I remember reading somewhere that Ina's inspiration came from Julia. The key is to saute the mushrooms separately (in butter of course). Julia also has a great poached salmon. You could make a simple steamed mussel dish, when I read her biography, My Life in France, one of the images that stays with me was her first meal where she learned to use a mussel shell as a set of tweezers to remove the other mussels.

Obama weighs broader move on legal immigration
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is considering key changes in the nation's immigration system requested by tech, industry and powerful interest groups, in a move that could blunt Republicans' election-year criticism of the president's go-it-alone approach to immigration after Congress chose not to act.
Administration officials and advocates said the steps would go beyond the expected relief from deportations for some immigrants in the U.S. illegally that Obama signaled he'd adopt after immigration efforts in Congress collapsed. After a bevy of recent White House meetings, top officials have compiled specific recommendations from business groups and other advocates whose support could undercut GOP claims that Obama is exceeding his authority to help people who have already violated immigration laws.
One of the more popular requests among business and family groups is a change in the way green cards are counted that would essentially free up about 800,000 additional visas the first year, advocates say.
It would lessen the visa bottleneck for businesses seeking global talent; shorten the green card line for those being sponsored by relatives, which can take 25 years; and reduce the incentive for illegal immigration by creating more legal avenues for outsiders and those here.

College football recruiting can be tough.
Yet it seems as if head coaches such as Les Miles, Nick Saban, Bob Stoops, Chip Kelly and even Mark Dantonio don't often have a bad class arrive on campus.
Some are just better than others.
This list endeavors to run down each FBS team's worst recruiting class in the past five seasons.
The time period considered is from 2007 to 2011, and the two main points of judging are the grades of recruits as well as performance on the field.
