Painkiller Jane is an American-Canadian science fiction and action television series based on the comic book character of the same name. Airing on the Sci Fi Channel in the US starting April 13, 2007 and Global in Canada, it starred Kristanna Loken as the title character. On August 15, 2007, it was canceled after one season of 22 episodes.[1][2]
The series stars Loken as Jane Vasco.[3] She begins as a DEA agent, where in the course of her work she encounters Andre McBride (Rob Stewart), who is the leader of a team of agents working for an unspecified government agency. The team is based in a disused subway station named Deckard Street. She is forced to join the team after she probes "too far" into their operations. It is then revealed that the team's mission is to identify and neutralize "neurological aberrants" ("neuros") — human mutants with supernormal mental powers. Dialogue in the pilot states there are dozens of variations, and the reasons neuros use their abilities vary. It is then theorized that the aberrations interfere with the brain's ability to distinguish right from wrong.
During the pilot episode, Vasco discovers that she has superhuman abilities — supernormal regenerative powers bordering on invulnerability. This is realized when she is pushed through a forty story window and falls to her apparent death, only to later revive and recover completely. However, she still feels the pain of her injuries before they heal. The team's doctor, Seth Carpenter, identifies her abilities as not like those of the neuros they track, but "something else".
- Kristanna Loken as Jane Vasco – the show's protagonist.
- Rob Stewart as Andre McBride – the leader of the special team.
- Stephen Lobo as Dr. Seth Carpenter – a doctor/scientist working with the team.
- Noah Danby as Connor King – the "muscles" of the team; a field operative with a short fuse.
- Sean Owen Roberts as Riley Jensen – a computer and communication technology specialist working for the team.
- Nathaniel Deveaux as Joe Waterman – former subway caretaker working for the team.
- Alaina Huffman as Maureen Bowers – Jane's best friend and former DEA partner.
The TV series received a 22-episode production order after the 2005 Painkiller Jane TV-movie yielded positive results. The film differed significantly from the original comic's storyline; the TV series, in turn, discarded the film's back-story and started afresh. According to story creator Jimmy Palmiotti, the new series was "closer to the original concept we came up with in the comic".[4] Executive producer Gil Grant has said the new series is "partly true" to the original comic, but will still differ to some extent.[5]
The series credits include several people in the role of producer. Most are credited only for a few episodes. This includes Loken (the star), who is credited as co-executive producer for several episodes.[6]
The TV series was filmed at Insight Film Studios in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada[7] and various locations around the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. The final four episodes were filmed and set in Budapest, Hungary.[8]

TIBERIAS, Israel - Will there be a war in the Middle East this summer? That's the question many are asking.
Israel recently held its biggest nationwide drill in history to prepare for the possibility of war -- a thought never far away from the minds or lips of most Israelis.
"We discuss the fact that we hope it never happens and what we're going to do if it does happen and the thought of it is terrible," one resident said.
The threats surround Israel. There are scud missiles in Syria, and as many as 5,000 rockets in the hands of Hamas on Israel's southern border, despite efforts of a naval blockade to keep the weapons out. And to the north, it's now estimated Hezbollah possesses more than 40,000 rockets aimed at the Jewish State.
During the 2006 second Lebanon war, the range of most of Hezbollah's rockets ended in the city of Tiberias on the sea of Galilee. Now, intelligence experts warn Hezbollah rockets could hit anywhere in Israel.
There are also two wildcards in this dangerous chess match. Turkey - once Israel's closest ally in the region -- is now a possible adversary and Iran is close to going nuclear
"I think that the main threat is still Iran," said retired Israeli Gen. Yaakov Amidror, adding that the country is still the power behind most of Israel's threats.
"It is not only the nuclear, it's the fact that Iran is behind Hezbollah. Iran is behind Hamas in the same way," Amidror said. "Iran is helping Syria. And only by neutralizing Iran, can Israel feel that it has enough security."
But could Israel eliminate or significantly slow down Iran's nuclear program on its own?
"Israel should be prepared to deal with Iran by itself. How long it will take if the decision will be taken at the end, this is a huge question mark," Amidror added. "Knowing my colleagues in the military, I am sure that Israel will be fully prepared when the government will make the decision."

Businesses operating in residential areas have an obligation to be committed to the well-being of their neighbors, while also accommodating their patrons.
If there were any doubts that a Sixth Avenue business - the scene of a fatal shooting Thursday night - was doing enough in that regard, those doubts should have been confirmed at the moment the shots rang out.
Clearly, the Choices Cigar Lounge and Night Club as well as the entertainment enterprises that preceded it at that location have not been good neighbors. Altoona Police Department dockets contain plenty of evidence to confirm that, and the Oct. 31 incident was the top rung of a "ladder" of trouble that for some time had seemed destined to eventually claim a life.
Fortunately, last week's incident didn't claim more than one; the potential was there.
Jeffrey Keller, who has managed the Choices night spot for the past 2 months, told a Mirror reporter in the hours following the fatal shooting that he has been trying to change the "bad persona" that the club has had. He said he is well aware of how upset neighbors have been about the goings-on at that location in recent years - problems that have included a stabbing, fights, drug use, not to mention what some residents lament has recently become virtually all-night noise.
Now, residents say, because Choices is a bottle club not under the scrutiny of the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, the "party" doesn't ever seem to stop.
"When 2 o'clock comes, all those other bars [operating under state liquor board rules] close, and they [patrons] come here, and it's packed," said Woodrow Allen, who lives near Choices.
Keller might have been trying to improve Choices' image prior to Thursday, but efforts he might have put forth have fallen far short of minimum consideration for the neighborhood. Remaining open well beyond 2 a.m., allowing loud noise and music - and rowdy and sometimes unlawful behavior - to disrupt the neighborhood is the first justification for criticism.
Choices has demonstrated abject disregard for nearby residents. And, anytime police have had to respond to incidents at or around the business, their safety has been jeopardized.
As for Thursday night, when what began with words turned deadly, Keller said he had handled security rather than have a bouncer on duty, because Thursday is a slow time for the business. He said he personally patted down each person who entered, to ensure no weapons were brought into the establishment. However, that security effort proved to be fatally flawed.
It's true that Choices isn't the neighborhood's only problem, but Choices and its predecessors have harmed it and tarnished the city's reputation.
Referring to Choices, Woodrow Allen's wife, Beth, said, "If you want something like that, go do your dirty stuff out in the boonies."
However, even the "boonies" don't deserve a bad neighbor.
If Choices, or some future version of it, wants to continue, it needs to rework current business objectives, be more cautious to ensure customers' safety, and exercise greater respect for people living nearby.
Thursday confirmed failure on all three fronts.

UNIVERSITY PARK - Back in April, the same weekend as Penn State's Blue-White football game, there was a meeting in the college's school of agriculture.
Part university lecture, part tent revival, the small group associated with Penn State Extension was there to hear the organization's message - and how to take it back home.
The goal, said Bruce McPheron, dean of the college, was to enhance the extension program's brand recognition. Dennis Calvin, the director of Penn State extension, put it succinctly: In the ag community, everyone knows the extension, while in the general population only a small percentage of people identify it as a part of their lives.

Volunteers from the Penn State Juniata Valley Master Gardeners are relocating plants from their former demonstration garden at Washington Avenue in Lewistown, to a new site at the former Woodlawn Playground near the Mifflin County Library. The group will present a Kids in the Garden program at the Fayette Lions Den in McAlisterville, and at St. John's Lutheran Church Daycare later this month, and is planning a fall open house and plant sale in September.
But the extension is there - sometimes in ways people don't realize. And as it prepares to mark 100 years of service, the people behind the extension want the rest to know what it has to offer.
The roots of today's extension go back to 1862, when the federal Morill Act gave birth to land-grant universities, including Penn State. The mission of these new schools was to educate citizens in basic topics - agriculture, home economics and mechanics. In 1914, the relationship between the colleges and the U.S. Department of Agriculture was formalized through the extension service, which was tasked with instructing and improving agriculture.
"We've had 150-plus year focus on rural communities. That's still a critical part of our focus," McPheron said. "We have to be thinking about how all of our changes allow us to be more agile in addressing emerging issues."
It's not just about the farm anymore - although that still remains a major part of what extension does. Among the more recognized activities of the extension are 4-H and, in Penn State Extension, the master gardener program. But today, McPheron said, the extension has to be able to solve real problems, keep communities in business. It's not just teaching, he said, but generating new knowledge through research.
"Our best teaching is not in the classroom," he said. "Our best teaching is what we give our students outside the classroom."
Whether from the ag standpoint or that of the public, the most important thing extension deals with is food - from the planting all the way through consumption. Extension, for example, is the teaching agency that has certified restaurants across the commonwealth through its ServSafe program. And it is looking at other food-related issues, from food-borne illness to availability (so-called "food deserts"), and the potential vulnerability of our food supply to an attack.
"We historically think about food in terms of getting it out there," McPheron said. "The biggest pressures on the U.S. health system are tied to what we eat. Can we as the key linchpin in the agricultural food system ignore than connection?
"We feel that the structure that we put in place, especially here on campus, really puts us into an opportunity to embrace those issues. This is important to be thinking about."
It's about food safety, he said. And diversity of agriculture. There are efforts to make food more nutritious.
Then there's the water supply, which drives most issues related to agriculture. And the bio-economy, as he calls it - things like renewable fuels, mainly corn-based products, that may someday replace conventional energy sources.
Calvin said the key is to adapt to trends and adopt technology, for extension to start acting more like a business than a government agency. That, too, is part of the branding message he and McPheron were preaching.
"How many 100-year-old companies do you know that still do things the way they did 100 years ago that are still in business?," Calvin asks. "The issues that we're dealing with in cooperative extension aren't necessarily the change. We know what we need to do to change. The hard part is what they call transition. You've got to get (people) to change and buy into this whole system of where we want to go."
What Calvin wants - and challenged the crowd to help achieve - is for Penn State Extension to be the biggest innovator at the national level.

What's Being Said
"…a fast-paced, intriguing read with a super hot hero and a heroine who can stand her ground. I couldn't put it down." ~ Candace Havens
"Nikki Duncan has spun a web of intrigue, suspense, and scorching hot love scenes that will entice any reader." ~ Talia Ricci, Joyfully Reviewed
"AWESOME READ!! I love Ian and Kieralyn. Ian may have been blind but he saw so much and helped Kieralyn see opening her heart didn't make her any less then what she was but more." ~ Maggie, an avid reader.
"The character of Ian Cabrera is so different and unique. He completely surprised me by his strength and independence with complete disregard to his handicap. On the contrary, his lack of vision is spun by the author into a strength for Ian. His blindness adds a completely new and original perspective that I absolutely loved!"
"Sounds to Die By has a pulsing, rhythmic beat that mixes Boston sensibility with Miami sound machine to create a passionate movement that sustains throughout the novel." ~ HV Long
"Nikki Duncan has written a taut, fast paced story, filled with hot and heavy passion and imaginative sex, and twists and surprises that catch you when you aren't expecting it." ~Holly, Long and Short Reviews
The Blurb
Rookie FBI Agent Kieralyn Beckett is in a delicate position. Her team refuses to buy into her theory that a string of kidnappings is connected. If she pushes too hard, they'll discover the latest victim was her college roommate and boot her off the case. A garbled recording is the only evidence, and there's only one man who can decipher it. The hard part will be convincing him to take the case.
Blinded as a child, NSA "listener" Ian Cabrera spends the majority of his time analyzing data while secretly searching for his father, a missing CIA operative. His plate is full, but Kieralyn's passion and determination, as well as the erotic beat of her heart, spark his interest. So does the mention of his father's code name on her recording.
There's only one way to follow this new crumb-trail of clues without tipping her off about what he's really after. Convince her she needs him to be her undercover partner, despite his handicap. Between her eyes and his ears, they make one beautifully orchestrated team. Every time they touch, though, the arousal they generate creates one red-hot element of distraction…
The Excerpt
Damn it, Cabrera." She stayed at his side, as he'd known she would.
"Tell me what you know."
"Call me Ian." Testing her reaction, and his own, he reached down and linked his fingers with hers. A shot of electricity and instant warmth slid up his arm. Her hands were soft, free of calluses except the small one on the inside of her middle finger from writing. "And I'll tell you what I think."
"I need facts." She pulled her hand. He held firm. "Fine. Ian."
"Ah." He flustered her. Her heart skipped. "You really are a charmer."
"And you get off on dragging things out."
"You don't know me well enough to know what gets me off."
"Nor do I want to."
Sparring with her fed an intellectual hunger he hadn't known he had. She had a quick wit and even now that she knew he couldn't see, she didn't dwell endlessly on his lack of vision. Even his family forgot to think of him as a whole man at times. "Don't protest too soon, Kieralyn. Patience is a virtue."
"And that's a shitty cliché."
"Shitty because you don't like how true it is." He stopped outside the door of Jazz on The Rocks. "Like now."
"How so? What did you hear that sent you here?"
He could have said he'd come just for the music, but it was her case and she might see something he missed. He'd just have to think fast if El Dogo was inside.
A couple approached. Ian pulled her intimately against him. With his lips against her ear, her scent once again slipping into him, he closed his eyes and sighed. "This club may be the one the recording was made in."
"And you know that…"
"Based on the sounds of the place. Different calibers of clubs have different levels of sound. Different décor impacts acoustics differently. The one on the recording was high class and near the beach."
"And this is one?"
"One of two in Miami." He slid his lips along her neck, tasted seduction and craved a more thorough exploration of her. "You be my eyes. Tell me what and who you see. Where they are. What they're doing."
"Let me guess…" Her throat bobbed in a swallow. Her skin heated. Her heart pounded faster. "You're my ears."
"I could differentiate your heartbeat from the masses of people on this street. If there's something worth hearing in the club, I'll pick up on it."
Her hands rested at his waist. "And if there isn't?"
"We try the next one."
"What's the catch, Cabrera?"
"Uh-uh." Suddenly determined to torment her every time she called him Cabrera, he nibbled her lobe. His blood rushed from his head, leaving him a little dizzy. "Call me Ian."
"What's the catch, Ian?"
"You have to pretend to be into me." He slid his hands over hers and tugged on her arms so they wrapped around him. "Really into me."

In the following video, Jeremy Bowman and Isaac Pino discuss three reasons investors should invest in Monster Beverage.
First, Monster is one of the fastest-growing companies in the energy-drink market. It's expanding into foreign markets, notably Japan and Russia.
Second, the marketing team at Monster knows what it's doing. They have experience and are working to showcase Monster as a lifestyle drink.
And finally, Monster may be a buyout target. Companies such as PepsiCo and Coca-Cola have bought out smaller beverage companies in the past. If Monster's stock declines, the combination of Monster's market and Pepsi's or Coke's distribution network may be too good to pass up.
The stakes are high for Monster Beverage these days. The stock had been nothing short of a rocket, but recent developments have sent shares spiraling downward. Health scares sparked a number of investigations at the state and federal level into the energy drink's role in several fatalities. With the company's value slashed in half, investors are wondering whether Monster Beverage is a value or a bust in the fast-growing energy drink category.

It's definately not the same old Mediterranean food being served up at paul k, where pomegranate scents a duck sauce as well as a vodka martini.
This intimate eatery exudes urbane chic. White linens, stylish lamps, warm wall colors, cool art exhibit, along with an exposed stainless kitchen create the hip environment that reflects it's "happening" Hayes Valley neighborhood of "ease and edge." The cuisine focus is an exploration of eastern Mediterranean flavors in updated, modern style dishes. There is an array of unusual small plates, for sharing or sampling while dining or at the bar with cocktails. Entrees are sensual and satisfying: juicy roast chicken crackles with a crispy sumac crust and chili harissa atop the grilled prime rib eye exemplifies eastern flavors. The wine list is an adventure in moderately priced, unusual European and west coast wines, chosen to bring out the subtle flavors of the food to accentuate both. The cocktail list follows the tone of the menu with listings such as the pomegranate martini & a Mediterranean cosmopolitan. The friendly staff at paul k is professional yet casual and strives to give guests an unforgettable taste of the Hayes Valley

City to pave recreation complex access road
The City of Eunice plans to pave the entrance drive to its recreation complex on Sittig Road.
Mayor Bob Morris said the city has about $97,000 in funds from the St. Landry Parish Solid Waste Commission that will be used for the paving project. He has no estimate of the project cost.
The funds come from appropriations to local government by the commission and must be used for road improvements or maintenance.
The recreation complex is approaching its third spring-summer youth baseball and softball season. Neither the entry road nor the parking lot are paved.
On another road improvement matter, the mayor said roads have not yet been designated for $150,000 to be added to the street improvement program.
In November, the city receive a low bid that much under the estimate it had made for the biannual improvement program.
The City Council voted to use the leftover capital outlay money by adding roads to the overlay list.
Morris said the Street Department has provided some input into possible additions. And there are sections of streets left over from City Council members's lists turned in earlier in the year.

Petoskey, MI
Northern Michigan's small town famous for Hemingway haunts swells to three times it's population of 6,000 with each summer's vacationers, but the three slower seasons offer plenty of allure for visitors without the crowds and chaos. From the quaint downtown shops to outdoor recreation with changing colors and beautiful snowfall, Petoskey's an ideal getaway the other nine months of the year. Here are a few of our favorite things about the town from our last visit.
Haunted with History
The Michigan Hemingway Society recently dedicated 11 particular sites as stops for Hemingway followers, but the literary legend is believed to have been almost everywhere in this town. From the watering hole he'd frequent to the diner he ate in and homes he lived in, every haunt is said to have inspired his writing, and many are said to be haunted.
After a self-guided tour of Hemingway's Michigan, try a ghost tour, where locals will show you City Park Grill's basement, the site of former owner Frank Fochtman's hanging, and The Perry Hotel, reportedly with paranormal activity on the third floor and lobby, and more. Schedule a private tour or attend the occasional $5, hour-long group Ghost Walk.
Northern Michigan is also home to captivating railway and architectural history. Steamships, railway cars and dummy trains all played integral roles in Petoskey's development, the stories of which are housed in the Little Traverse History Museum where visitors can also learn about the innovative architecture and design of the Victorian era. The Bay View Association's hundreds of Victorian homes and historic buildings have become a National Historic Landmark with community events and programs open to the public.
For more captivating architecture, take a driving tour of Earl Young's unique, incomparable homes referred to as "mushroom houses" in nearby Charlevoix.
Enchanted with Charm
Browse boutiques, gift shops, and eateries downtown for famous pie and fudge, distinctly Michigan trinkets and souvenirs, and local artists' works. From handmade jewelry or baskets to specialty oils, vinegars or jams, there are a variety of stops to try something local.
Dine in Palette Bistro for local produce, fish and beer with a beautiful view of Little Traverse Bay and rotating local art as décor. View more local art in any of a dozen galleries or the Northern Michigan Artists Market, and finish with dessert at Jesperson's, a local favorite going on 110 years of famous pies where yes, Hemingway once ate.
Petoskey's general stores combine the charm and history with local goods, gifts, wine and eats. Horton Bay General Store, featured in The Last Good Country, combines a B&B, restaurant and gift shop with hospitable and knowledgeable local owners. Don't miss Symons General Store while downtown though, with a basement wine cellar, restaurant and craft goods.
Bewildered with Nature
Discover the beauty and wildlife that drew Hemingway here from Illinois and throughout his childhood summers for fishing, camping and hunting. The area's abundant lakes and rivers offer trout, salmon and walleye fishing in addition to boating, sailing, kayaking or canoeing. The surrounding woods burst with color in the fall perfect for hiking or biking, and winter boasts snowboarding, skiing, snowmobiling, dog sledding and snowshoeing opportunities.
The winter also brings hunting seasons with all kinds of game in Northern Michigan's extensive forests. Enjoy nature walks and cycling trails in these any time of year, plus horseback riding or off-roading. Find a wide range of camping and RV sites, local sporting outfitters and recreation guides through Travel Michigan. They can guide on where to stay, eat, golf, play or shop as well.

July 11: A 19-year-old Kirkland male's Honda was impounded after police saw a large quantity of illegal fireworks in the back seat. Officers were originally tracking down a license taken from a vehicle associated with an attempted forgery at the Woodinville Boston Market. The man may have tried to buy four dinner meals and three drinks there with a check, but when asked for ID, he took back the check and drove off.
Sammamish Valley
July 6/7: Someone stole outdoor chairs, benches and tables from a business in the 14400 block of Wood-Red Rd. Loss was estimated at $2,461.
North Industrial
July 13/14: Someone stole a $600 Kohler pressure washer from the fenced and locked area of a storage company in the 14000 block of N.E. 200th St.

Moynihan's moxie
Gil Troy is a history professor at McGill University and a research fellow with the Shalom Hartman Institute's Engaging Israel Program as well as the author of eight books, including "Leading From the Center: Why Moderates Make the Best Presidents," "Morning in America: How Ronald Reagan Invented the 1980s," "Hillary Rodham Clinton: Polarizing First Lady" and "Why I Am a Zionist." Here he discusses his recently published and critically acclaimed book "Moynihan's Moment" (Oxford University Press, $29.95).
Shmuel Rosner: For those who haven't yet read the book, what was unique about the way Moynihan perceived Israel?
Gil Troy: When Daniel Patrick Moynihan became United States ambassador to the United Nations in 1975, he had no particularly deep ties to Israel. He would say, "I knew little of the place …" He had never visited, he noted, never having received one of those fun freebie trips for academics.
But Moynihan saw the attack on Israel as an attack on democracy and decency. He understood it as an attempt by the Soviet Union and the Arabs to humiliate the United States at a low moment for Americans, just six months after the fall of South Vietnam. And he saw the perversion of the truth — singling out one form of nationalism, Jewish nationalism, meaning Zionism in a forum of 141 nationalisms — as typical of totalitarians who sacrifice all, their children, other's children, the truth, to serve their nefarious goals. Unlike others in the 1970s, Moynihan decided he would take a stand and fight. "An issue of honor, of morality was put before us," he would say, "and not all of us ran."
SR: You dedicate a big part of the book to explaining the war of legitimacy waged against Israel in the 1970s; is the wave of delegitimization we see today a continuation of the same phenomenon or is it different?
GT: Moynihan and the Israeli ambassador to the U.N. at the time, Chaim Herzog, feared that what Moynihan called the "Big Red Lie"— claiming Zionism is racism — would set the ideological framework for attacking Israel, and they were right. You can draw a line from the Zionism-is-racism resolution of 1975 to the intellectual pogrom against Israel and Zionism at the Durban conference of 2001, to the continuing attacks on Israel both from Islamists and from authoritarian progressives, part of today's inexplicable, hypocritical, reprehensible Red-Green alliance.
Even though the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a national conflict, accusing Zionism of [being] racism, and comparing Israel to South Africa's reprehensible apartheid policies would justify ostracizing and demonizing the Jewish state. As Moynihan explained, all countries "were equally accepted as equally legitimate. Only regimes based on racism and racial discrimination were held to be unacceptable." And, anticipating today, when despite the fall of the Soviet Union, and the repeal of the resolution, the assault on Israel's existence, not just Israeli policies, continues, he warned: "Whether Israel was responsible, Israel surely would be blamed: openly by some, privately by most. Israel would be regretted." We can, therefore, understand the Zionism-is-racism resolution as the Rosetta Stone of the delegitimization movement, revealing its nasty, communist origins.
SR: One can't escape the many parallels between then and now: U.N. bias, Israel under attack of delegitimization, the United States as the one ally on which Israel relies — but do you see a "Moynihan" defending Israel today with such efficiency?
GT: That is the question I have been asked most frequently on my book tour, and the answer is depressing: No, I don't see someone of Moynihan's stature and eloquence around. Now, Moynihan was unique as a scholar-statesman, the Thomas Jefferson of his day. George Will quipped that Pat wrote more books while serving in the Senate than most senators ever read. One of my book's messages is we need a new Moynihan; we need that kind of passion, righteous indignation and rhetorical power — defending Israel, defending America, defending human rights consistently.
SR: Moynihan wasn't Jewish, and today one feels at times that the job of defending Israel in liberal circles (Evangelical Christians definitely defend Israel on the right) falls mostly on Jewish shoulders. Is that a problem? Did Moynihan want to be visible because he understood how important it is for Israel to be supported by non-Jews?
GT: Initially, Moynihan wanted to be visible because he wanted to teach Americans how to function in "the opposition," in the U.N. and elsewhere. He wanted to remind Americans, after the humiliations of Watergate and Vietnam, of soaring crime and rampant inflation, to stand tall. He wanted to challenge liberals not to succumb to what we today call political correctness and identity politics. But as Moynihan's career developed in the Senate, I believe he did take pride in his support for Israel. He became, he said, "preoccupied with the Soviet effort to delegitimate the state of Israel." And he understood the importance of having a liberal, Democratic Irish-Catholic defending the Jewish state, especially as support for Israel on the totalitarian left became unfashionable and Zionism became politically incorrect.

Olmert should not be given credit for this. The military must have insisted. It was not anything that could wait.
Meanwhile, on the "two-state-solution" front, on the front of deluding oneself, one's people, and Infidels everywhere, that a "solution" exists that can ignore the nature, the texts, the tenets, the attitudes, the atmospherics of Islam, Olmert and his collaborators continue with the mixture as before. They harm Israel. And by misleading themselves and other Israelis, they also harm the larger Western and non-Muslim world, by failing to demand that the "Palestinians" and other Arab Muslims openly recognize and discuss the basis of Muslim treaty-making with Infidels -- the Al-Hudaibiyya Agreement -- and furthermore, openly discuss the Muslim view by which any land once part of Dar al-Islam is forever more part of Dar al-Islam. In other words, instead of ignoring these essential matters, for fear that if they are raised it will make "agreement impossible," the government of Israel -- and the government of the United States -- should openly call for a discussion of such matters.
This will force Muslims into a position of having to admit to such a position, or in having to declare that they do not hold to such a position. There has to be an open discussion of what Islam is all about, what its claims on the world are, and an end to ignorance and the making of policy on the basis of that willful ignorance. The truth has to be recognized, has to be discussed, has to be looked at. Israel's government may find such a recognition painful, but it owes it to the people it claims to be able to protect, to face up to the matter. And in so doing, it may force the rest of the Infidel world to do so as well -- and that will be good for the Infidels, as well as for Israel, and its permanent and real -- as opposed to temporary and false -- security.

The Lists: In Contention's Top 10 Most Anticipated Films of Cannes 2012
From "The Paperboy" to "Amour," 10 films we can't wait to see on the Croisette this year
9. "Confession of a Child of the Century" (Sylvie Verheyde)
Okay, I'll level with you: if there's one film on this list that's primed for disaster, it's this one. Drug-addled Libertines frontman Pete Doherty as a French, uh, libertine named Octave in a so-called "rockmantic" saga set just after the Napoleonic Wars? Charlotte Gainsbourg as the war widow with whom he falls dementedly in love? A synopsis containing the line, "Can he find the strength to believe in the future?" Why do I want to see this at all? The answer lies in the director, Sylvie Verheyde, whose tender, brilliant and criminally under-distributed 2008 coming-of-age film "Stella" earned her my attention, whatever thorny path she has chosen for her follow-up.

The Internal Revenue Service has announced a special event called Solution Saturday. This program offers personalized tax help for over four million taxpayers in the metro Detroit area, one of only five cities around the country sponsoring the event.
For this special Saturday event in Detroit, taxpayers are encouraged to schedule appointments as soon as possible by calling (313) 628-3120. Appointment lines will open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. While appointments are highly recommended, individuals without an appointment can also visit the IRS Detroit office on Solution Saturday.
According to Luis D. Garcia, IRS media relations spokesperson, many people are not aware that the penalty for not filing is far heavier than the penalty for not paying. Garcia also said the IRS can prepare and file one's tax return so at least the larger part of the burden is lifted.
In addition to the specialized tax help on Solution Saturday, IRS employees will set up information booths at each location. These booths will offer information on getting the most out of the new tax credits created by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, starting a new business, dealing with difficult tax issues, and navigating the many helpful IRS programs.
According to Rick Byrd, IRS wage and investment commissioner, Solution Saturday will be another way taxpayers can gain access to the help they need to solve their issues.
Foreclosure, bankruptcy, payment plans, penalties, past-due tax returns and other complex tax issues can be a challenge for taxpayers. Many of these issues require contact with specific IRS departments and tax experts. Solution Saturday brings together IRS employees from across the agency to work face-to-face with taxpayers to address unique tax problems or issues.
In addition to Solution Saturday, people can get help from the IRS website at IRS.gov, or by calling 1-800-TAX-1040.
The Detroit IRS Offices Hosting Solution Saturday will be open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Nov. 7.

The Big Picture: Just when you thought the government spending debate was over for the year... While it appeared at the end of last week that all parties had agreed to a government spending bill for fiscal year 2012 (which began October 1, 2011), it now appears that deal may be in legislative limbo until a deal is struck on the payroll tax cut extension. Fortunately, an earlier spending bill funded USDA's budget for 2012, but many other federal agencies remain on a continuing resolution until Congress reaches agreement on their appropriations measures. The fun may extend into the weekend as Congress tries to finish its work before Christmas.
Happening This Week:
The House and Senate have to work out their differences on the final spending bill for the year and resolve the differences in views on the payroll tax cut extension. The House passed a version of the payroll tax cut extension on December 13, but that version (click here for the text) contains language that forces the Administration to act on the Keystone Pipeline. The bill (HR 3630) has drawn a veto threat.
Helpful link:
When the White House issues an official veto threat, here is where they post them: Office of Management and Budget Legislative Information under Statements of Administration Policy (known as SAPs).

The backup of MSX is fairly straight forward. Once you have installed the
connect agent then you can create a MS-Exchange class to backup the
Information store and directory etc.
Mailbox backups required the NBU Client service to run in a user account
which has an active mailbox and also privileges over everything you want it
to backup. Create this user and mailbox and set required privileges.
On the master server, under "configure netbackup", expand the client and
edit the properties. There is an Exchange tab. On here there is a tick box
that says something like "User name for mailbox backup". Just check this
and put in the mailbox name.
Now create a schedule to backup you mailboxes. On file list I think there
is a Mailbox directive. Unfortunately you have to specify the mailbox name
of every mailbox you want to backup.
This is how I have done it for MSX 5.5. For Exchange 2000, you required the
559 patch from the web site. Unfortuately, this has been withdrawn along
with support for MSX 2K pending the latest patch release.

One way to take the allure out of this movie is to think of the dragon as what it really is - a really big lizard. Who the hell wants to see a movie called: "Reallybiglizardheart?" Besides, "Braveheart" comes out and wins an Oscar, the last thing you want to do is title your film "Anything-heart." If that isn't bad enough, there's actually a scene in the film where the dragonfighting knight, Bowen (Dennis Quaid), leads his men into battle. It looks a hell of a lot like a similar scene with Mel Gibson.
This film has some unfortunate similarities to a couple of other recent films. The first is "Robin Hood." Dennis Quaid tries to pull off this fake Irish accent that sounds like he's just had a shot of Novocain. Half way through the film the accent has disappeared and there's "Everybody's All American" standing in the fjords with a sword in his hand waiting for the flying Barney.
"Dragonheart" is also painfully reminiscent of "Twister." The main appeal of the movie is a special effect: in this case, an 18-foot-high, 43-foot-long dragon, Bowen names Draco (voice of Sean Connery). When the neatness of the dragon wears off, all that's left is an insultingly simplistic story that seems to be aimed at 8-year-olds because every time there's a development, one of the characters has to deliver a slow monologue like "we are going to the castle now to attack the king (David Thewlis) because he is a bad man," or "I am the dragon who gave away half his heart" or "This is my sword. When I slice your head off you will probably feel a bit of a sting."

Inside NOLA: Just call me 'The Mild One' -- adventures of a television extra
Wanted: "Extras with motorcycles – available tomorrow," read the Craigslist ad. The job was for a television series shooting in the Crescent City.
Hmm, I thought. As a freelance writer (read: no real job), and a motorcyclist, this could be something for which I might be qualified.
All I had to do was email my personal data (name, age, phone number, and picture of me WITH MOTORCYLE, as specified in caps. Obviously, they didn't want any ugly motorcycles -- my own appearance, of course, can't be helped).
No problem. I promptly emailed the casting agency a Facebook picture in which I imagine I look like a badass -- albeit in a middle-aged biker/writer sort of way -- wearing a black leather jacket astride my Harley-Davidson Road King.
Almost immediately, I received a response telling me I was hired, with instructions to report the next afternoon to the shoot location in the Irish Channel neighborhood, with motorcycle and "biker wardrobe options."
No problem, I had that covered, too. I've got enough Harley-Davidson T-shirts and leather accouterments to roll with the best of 'em at Sturgis or Daytona.
So, with visions of myself as Marlon Brando in "The Wild One," I fired up my Harley and rode off into the afternoon for my small-screen debut.
I arrived at the designated location 20 minutes early to find one other motorcyclist parked in front of what looked like an empty warehouse. No cameras, no crew, and no craft services (i.e. food) anywhere in sight.
Eventually, we were joined by three other bikers. A couple of them were newbie extras like me; the others had previous experience. We stood around our bikes chatting, and one of the others said he'd heard the crew had been shooting at another location and would be coming here for a quick exterior pick-up shot, for which our motorcycles would be needed.
Roughly 30 minutes later, accompanied by a police escort, a small caravan of production vehicles pulled up, consisting of a couple of production/equipment trucks and several other vehicles containing cast and crew.
The crew setup was efficient and lightning-fast -- 15 minutes and they were good to go. Lighting was provided by the golden, late-afternoon sun. We were directed to place our motorcycles in a row along the building's facade, then move them a couple of times until they were "just so," to the director's satisfaction.
In the scene, the empty building was to double as a sort of "biker clubhouse" (the interior scenes had apparently been previously shot elsewhere). A couple of actors -- the show's main characters -- would screech to a stop in front of the "'clubhouse," hop out of their vehicle, and walk toward the building's front door.
That's it. I'd guess the final scene in the show will take less than 10 seconds of airtime.
By now, we'd figured out that they'd only hired us for our motorcycles. We were essentially "motorcycle wranglers," and were instructed to clear the shot before the cameras rolled.
No matter, a day rate is a day rate. We'd get the same paycheck whether we appeared on camera or not.
So, there'd be no onscreen debut for this extra.
No "Wild One." No "Easy Rider." Not even a "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" (if you remember that film, you know the biker clubhouse scene I'm talking about).
No opportunity to act like the biker badass I'd always imagined myself to be.
The director called action, the actors drove up, hopped out and walked toward the building. They reset; then did the same thing again. And again. And again.
If I may say so, our motorcycles provided wonderful background for the shot.
Ten or 15 takes later, the director was satisfied and called it a wrap. We extras were released and sent on our merry way, an hour and a half after we'd arrived.
One of the experienced extras told us the day was atypical; normally working as a "background actor" involves hours of waiting between scenes, usually for the full 10- to 12-hour day.
Thanks to Louisiana's generous film and television production tax incentives, more and more productions have been attracted to the state, creating a thriving industry often referred to as "Hollywood South," generating millions of dollars for the economy, and creating jobs for a talented local production community: actors, crewmembers, and various production support services.
My fellow extra -- the one with experience -- told me he's able to make a fairly good living this way, and often works several days a week on various productions. Obviously, it's not for everyone, but for those with some free time, it just might pay to register with a local casting agency, or check the last-minute casting notices on Craigslist: http://neworleans.craigslist.org/tfr/ (as with anything on Craigslist, remember anyone can post anything -- be careful before sending personal information to someone you're not familiar with).
Who knows, you may get your on-screen debut before I do.

The New York Giants wide receiver is launching a program called Dare to Dream, which asks teachers and high school students to take a pledge expressing their goals, such as improving their grades by the end of the year or applying to college. It then rewards students when they achieve their goals.
Throughout the school year, the foundation works with students to monitor progress and provides support to schools such as books and classroom supplies. Students who accomplish their goals will receive a certificate signed by Mr. Moss and other rewards, such as tickets to a game or a chance to speak at their schools.
"I tell these kids that it's not going to happen overnight, I didn't just wake up and become a professional athlete," Mr. Moss says. "I worked hard and went to college and if these kids and their teachers can dare to dream, they will accomplish what they set out to do."
Mr. Moss was born in Miami and played college football at the University of Miami, where he helped form the Moss Foundation with his older brother, Santana, a wide receiver for the Washington Redskins. The two donated more than $250,000 for training camps, community fairs and other school projects.
When he was drafted to the New York Giants in 2006, he says he wanted to also work with children in New York City.
"I started hearing about a school system that was failing these students and I wanted to show these kids that someone cared about them and that through education, they can make it," Mr. Moss says.
This year,he ran a pilot program with Sobro, the South Bronx Overall Economic Development Corporation, which runs after-school programs for schools in the Bronx. About 20 children wrote letters to Mr. Moss, explaining short-term goals to read a certain number of books throughout the year or their dreams of becoming an astronaut. At the end of the summer, Mr. Moss plans to hold a barbecue with participating children to hand out certificates of achievement.
"Growing up in the city, there's a lot of distractions. We want to get these kids to start dreaming, to start thinking about a future and making the right choices," says Deidra McKoy, a youth counselor at Sobro.
Sobro works with schools like Christopher Columbus High School, which was among 19 schools Mayor Michael Bloomberg tried to close this year as part of a strategy to shutter failing schools. The State Supreme Court said the city didn't follow proper procedure and ruled to keep the schools open.
"Many of the kids wrote in their letters to Sinorice that they feared their school was going to close… it felt hopeless, it affected their psyches," Ms. McKoy says.
The Dare to Dream foundation now looks to expand the program in other schools and create a fellowship for teachers and guidance counselors at participating schools.

There's a steep learning curve for rookies trying to make their mark in the NFL. It's not just adjusting to the speed and talent at the pro level, it's getting accustomed to studying a playbook and opponents' tendencies day after day.
In their latest Inside the Huddle video, Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman and former NFL player Ross Tucker discuss with SN host Rayven Tirado how even veteran players work to improve.

"What separates the great quarterbacks is the decision-making process, and that gets better as you get older," Aikman said. "You start seeing defenses better, you're not as confused, you study a little bit more intently … so that really is the biggest difference in the NFL."
Tucker, who runs the website GoBigRecruiting.com, has a chance to talk to high school players about the keys to success, and he says they're amazed to find out that it takes a lot more than size, strength and speed.
"It's almost like they think I'm joking when I tell them at the NFL level it's all technique," Tucker said. "You get to that level and you realize that everybody up there has pretty good height, weight and speed, or otherwise they wouldn't be there. At that point, it becomes about your technique, and that's why you need to continually strive to improve that technique."

The irony, Aikman says, is that in the NFL, there's not as much time to spend on individual drills, which means mechanics can start to slip.
"In some regards, the mechanics for an NFL player, as surprising as this sounds, tends to regress a little bit," Aikman said.

Legislative Alert
President Carter Testifies before House Appropriations Committee
By Meredith Mays, Legislative Representative, International Association of Chiefs of Police
n March 21, IACP president Joseph Carter testified before the House Committee on Appropriations during the Department of Justice overview hearing. President Carter discussed the disturbing spike in violent crime in the United States and called for increased funding for law enforcement to combat this dangerous trend.
In his testimony, President Carter stated that during the past 15 years, law enforcement has made tremendous strides in reducing the level of crime and violence in our communities. This has been accomplished, he said, in part because law enforcement officers have an intimate knowledge of their communities and because they have developed close relationships with the citizens they serve.
President Carter continued, "Despite the best efforts of our nation's law enforcement officers, the disturbing truth is that each year in the United States, well over a million of our fellow citizens are victims of violent crime." President Carter was referring to the FBI Uniform Crime Report, which detailed that violent crime rose at a rate of 2.5 percent during 2005. That figure means that 31,479 more people were victims of violent crime than in the year before. The report also stated that, for the first six months of 2006, the crime rate rose at a rate of 3.7 percent, as compared to the same time frame in 2005. If this rate holds for the remainder of the year, it would mean that an additional 47,000 Americans would find themselves victims of violent crime.
While there are many different theories of why violent crime is increasing in these communities after years of often double-digit declines, one fact remains: no place is immune. As President Carter stated, "what were once considered 'urban' problems—drug addiction and distribution, violent crime, gangs, and poverty—have migrated to suburban and even rural locations."
For example, in cities with populations of 25,000 to 50,000, the violent crime rate rose by more than 8 percent from 2004 through the first six months of 2006. In towns with populations of 10,000 to 25,000, the homicide rate went up more than 6.5 percent over the same two-year period. President Carter continued, "It is telling that this increase in crime in America, violent and otherwise, corresponds to the substantial decline in funding for local and state law enforcement from federal government assistance programs."
In the years since 2001, programs that aided law enforcement efforts—the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (Byrne-JAG), Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention programs—have suffered significant budget reductions. As President Carter stated, "This is both unfortunate and shortsighted for these programs have consistently demonstrated that they provide valuable and critical resources to the state, tribal, and local law enforcement community. By reducing, and in some cases eliminating, funding for these successful programs, Congress and the administration have significantly reduced the ability of law enforcement agencies to combat both crime and terrorism. The simple truth is that today, police departments throughout the nation have far fewer officers and resources than they did in the 1990s."
President Carter continued to detail proposed budget cuts in the administration's Fiscal Year (FY) 2008 Budget Proposal, commenting that additional cuts are simply unacceptable. "State, tribal, and local law enforcement agencies are on the front line of effective terrorism prevention." As a result of their daily "efforts to combat crime and violence, state, tribal, and local law enforcement officers are uniquely situated to detect,investigate, and apprehend suspected terrorists." President Carter concluded his remarks by saying, "If our efforts to reduce crime and promote homeland security are to have any chance of succeeding, it is absolutely vital for Congress and the administration to make the necessary resources available that will allow . . . law enforcement [agencies] to mount . . . effective anticrime programs, which are also effective antiterrorism programs."
Holding hearings is the first step in the FY 2008 budget process. The IACP will keep members updated on any developments in this process.
A copy of President Carter's testimony may be found on the IACP Web site.1
Critical IACP-Supported Law Enforcement Measures Pass Senate
On March 23, the Senate approved two IACPsupported amendments to the FY 2008 Budget Resolution. The two amendments would fully fund the COPS program at $1.05 billion and the Byrne-JAG program at nearly $1.1 billion. The COPS provision will provide state and local law enforcement agencies with critical resources to hire community police and school resource officers, as well as to purchase new technologies to help the law enforcement community detect and prevent acts of crime. The Byrne-JAG resolution is intended to provide support to state and local drug task forces, community crime prevention programs, substance abuse treatment programs, prosecution initiatives, and many other local crime control programs.
Fully funding programs such as COPS and Byrne-JAG will aid the law enforcement community in reducing crime and in mounting successful and effective anticrime programs. These programs will help ensure that law enforcement has the resources necessary to maintain the level of service their citizens expect and deserve.
The budget process is still in the preliminary stages, and it is important to note that the budget resolution is nonbinding. However, the resolution does serve as a fiscal blueprint that sets broad goals and specific spending levels for the coming fiscal year. It does not fund the federal government; rather, it guides the actions of appropriators who come up with the final budget each year. Budget resolutions outline multiyear spending and revenue goals and make deficit projections. The resolution does not require the president's signature.
Throughout the budget process, the IACP will work closely with Congress to ensure that the needs of the law enforce ment community are met in FY 2008.

I would eat a horse.
I was daydreaming this weekend about hunting tree sloths with a baseball bat. A friend informed me they are full of parasites... too bad, they seem easy to catch.
I would eat a horse.
I was daydreaming this weekend about hunting tree sloths with a baseball bat. A friend informed me they are full of parasites... too bad, they seem easy to catch.
I've heard a long time ago that we eat more horses in the US of A that we are aware of. A lot of the fast food chain's definition of "ground beef" the typical American's. That said meat's meat. I fixed beef tongue this weekend, I'd have no compunction about eating horse if it tasted good and it wasn't someone's riding pony.
I'll try anything twice. I'm having goat curry Friday, so horse won't be too far from that, I'd think.
Food is food. why not?
"I know what my body needs and what it can handle. There's no better way to achieve my goal than what im doing now. If my regimen leads to my death, be it in six days or six months...I will die fullfiled. The outcome is irrelavent so long as i steer towards my fate. If death is to be my prize, i welcome it with open arms."
"A pound of meat a day keeps the doctor away"
I think it might actually be illegal in the US. Seems like I was reading something along those lines a few days ago. But no, I wouldn't have a problem with it as long as it tasted ok.
Couldn't do it. I grew up with horses. There's something special about them. They bond with people and work to please them. I couldn't eat a horse no more than I could eat a dog or cat.
Sheer sentimentality on my part? Maybe. But the idea of eating a horse is anathema to me.
I'd be able to eat most animals so long as I know they aren't poisonous and never met them living. It's a curiosity thing for me. I think I could eat cat or dog, so long as I never met it alive.
I second some others...I've too much affection for the beasts...just like I do dogs, cats, etc.
Not sure if it's becoming PB, maturity, or what...but I've found a larger soft spot for animals in general the last couple of years. With that, I would only want to harm one if needed for food. Otherwise, I'm a few steps above live and let live. I'm actually turning my yard into a native certified habitat for birds, butterflies, squirrels and the occasional Peter Cottontail that may wander across.

With the Portland Timbers starting their 2012 season this weekend, I wanted to take some time to highlight Major League Soccer and other aspects of the team before the Timbers home opener. In this entry, we take a look at the folks guiding the Timbers on and off the pitch, the front office, coaches and broadcast team.
Part 1: Park and Intangibles
Part 2: Eastern Conference Rivals
Part 3: Western Conference Rivals
Part 4: Coaching, Front Office & Broadcast Team
Part 5: Goalkeepers
Part 6: Defenders
Part 7: Midfielders
Part 8: Forwards
The Portland Timbers went into 2012 with such high hopes after a stellar 2011 that saw them nearly earn a playoff berth in their first campaign. After the season opening win over
Porter has amassed an impressive coaching resume after playing at the
While his USMNT U-23 team didn't qualify for the 2012 London Olympics, their record during qualifying was amongst the best in the pool, but they unfortunately lost key qualifying matches. What impressed me in the short time I've been able to chat with Porter is his attention to detail and ability to translate that into his vision. The team has undergone a dramatic change in their offensive philosophy from a direct style play to more of a possession oriented approach that capitalizes upon speed and athleticism, and the team has responded well so far. As Porter has put it on numerous occasions, it's important to have players buy in to the changes, and they've kept the core of the group that has embraced the direction while bringing in others to help reinforce that message.
It does help Porter's cause greatly that the team has surrounded him with experienced assistants to help employ the new direction. Sean McAuley joined the Timbers in July 2012 as an assistant coach after Technical Director Gavin Wilkinson became the interim coach, and he began to assume much of the direct coaching in finishing the 2012 season. McAuley was also a former USL Timber in his lengthy career, but once his playing days were done, McAuley went into coaching with English side
Amos Magee has been with the Timbers since 2009 after several years coaching in
While the organization has invested in its academy program to develop younger talent within the Timbers umbrella, the team has also made significant investments in other areas designed to maximize player performance. The team hired John Cone as their director of sports sciences and John Galas as their performance analyst. The Timbers have struggled with fitness and mental fatigue at points in the 2012 season, so to see the team invest in areas to improve fitness regimens, video analysis, mental health issues, and overall health of the players is a huge step in the right direction. As Porter has indicated in media comments, the team has integrated video scouting and performance criteria into many aspects of their day to day coaching operation. While talent can get players to a certain point, the most successful integrate mental and physical training as well as preventative care to maximize effort and avoid injury.
The changes in coaching have allowed Technical Director Gavin Wilkinson to return back to his role as chief of scouting and main director of player development and acquisition. Wilkinson joined the Timbers in 2001 as a player, became an assistant coach in 2005, then moved to head coach in 2007 until the team moved to MLS in 2011, where he moved into his current role. Wilkinson did return to the bench in 2012 to finish out the season as interim coach, and became a lightning rod of criticism over the team's performance that season. While I appreciate Wilkinson's commitment to the team over the years and personally have enjoyed speaking with him regularly about the team, I have also wondered about many of the decisions made about player acquisitions or lineups during his coaching tenure. While I might not understand the information around certain decisions, his commitment to the organization is understood and he's been very open and honest at times about the criticism. Having a strong coaching staff should allow him to focus on scouting, and that is one area where Wilkinson has achieved success during his long tenure with the team.
Everyone that I've mentioned takes their lead from team owner Merritt Paulson, who has grown within his role tremendously. The Timbers owner has become quite famous for his Twitter exchanges and game day passion, but behind the scenes, he's invested much of his time and finances in building the Portland Timbers empire into one of the most solid clubs in MLS. The spring and summer will be busy with the first team, reserve team, various academy sides and the Timbers U-23 club, but the Timbers umbrella gains another team as the Portland Thorns FC begin play in the National Women's Soccer League. The Timbers have also become a pillar in the community for their various community efforts, and Paulson is often amongst the personnel on site as the Timbers interact with the public, giving fans a chance to see him for who he is – passionate, driven, candid, and desiring success. The team also benefits from the tremendous experience of their chief operation office, Mike Golub, who has been paramount in keeping the organization running smoothly in all operational aspects.
The Timbers will again offer up every match in 2013 to fans via television and radio through various outlets, although the full staff is not completely finalized at this time. The Timbers will again have a Partner Pub program for all away matches, giving fans a chance to interact with other Timbers fans while watching their team away from home. The Timbers Army remains one of the best in the league at away support, but setting up local venues to broadcast matches is a great fan experience. While lay by play man John Strong and analyst Robbie Earle has been busy lately appearing on various soccer broadcasts, it's expected they will remain with the club and appear regularly on broadcast. The team's radio affiliate, 750 AM the Game, continues to make every match available on radio while broadcasting a weekly radio program featuring Timbers news, notes and interviews. KPTV Channel 12 will also continue their weekly look at the Timbers, Timbers in 30, on Friday nights at 6:30 PM starting on March 9, as well as broadcast several matches on local TV. Suffice to say, the new setup should allow fans to follow their club no matter where their travel plans take them.
