$46,000, Hike! Gridiron Relics Sell
In a famous 1979 television ad, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman "Mean Joe" Greene shares a Coke with a young fan and tosses him his game-day jersey, saying, "Hey kid…catch!"
Maybe Mr. Greene should have reconsidered.
These days, National Football League jerseys used in games can fetch tens of thousand of dollars. A Tom Brady shirt garnered a record $46,000 at February's Super Bowl charity auction. Collectors say that football is one of the strongest segments of the sports-memorabilia market, estimated at $1 billion a year.
Before the Brady sale, the record for a game-day jersey was "about $20,000," said Pete Quaglierini, manager of NFL Auction, the league's official site for game-day memorabilia. A jersey worn during a game by baseball superstar Albert Pujols might bring only $10,000 to $15,000, collectors said.
In recent years, the NFL market has weathered a scandal over fake items and has survived the recession, which saw prices tumble in many other collecting markets, according to Les Gold, who owns American Jewelry and Loan in Detroit, a leading dealer in Super Bowl rings. Prices in the overall NFL market have crept up about 20% since 2008, said David Hunt of Hunt Auctions, a sports-memorabilia dealer in suburban Philadelphia.
Some big shows recur each year, like the National Sports Collectors Convention, where a set of 100-year-old baseball cards found in an Ohio attic sold for $566,000 in August. But there are hundreds of smaller weekly and monthly shows, plus eBay and other online sites. The NFL has first rights to almost everything used in the Super Bowl, Pro Bowl and other postseason games; its NFL Auction site lists about 200 new items every week and did about $3 million in sales last year, Mr. Quaglierini said. The NFL site is known for its efforts to offer only authentic merchandise.
Why does football seem to do better than baseball, despite showy sales like the baseball cards? The smaller supply of memorabilia used during games is one reason, said Mr. Hunt: For each team, "there are 162 baseball games and only 16 football games." Mr. Hunt also noted the number of football bidders. "You'll always get two or three guys bidding on a big-ticket item like a Brady jersey," he said. For the Brady shirt, "there were five or six people bidding above $30,000." Teams have not only their own charities but often their own museums. At the New York Giants museum at MetLife Stadium, for example, the team displays such relics as the desk of owner Wellington Mara. The players often have their own charities.
Charitable requests also shrink the pool of memorabilia: Michele Rosenthal, who oversees the Steelers' charitable efforts, said the team gets between 250 and 500 requests every week for it to donate memorabilia to the United Way, Boys and Girls Clubs, and other local charities.
The competition for items has led to unscrupulous offers. "It was like the Wild West in the 1980s," said Mr. Hunt, who has worked with NFL Auction and been in the sports-memorabilia business for 20 years. "Guys would show you something and say, 'I think Mickey Mantle wore this jersey.' " In 2010, the market was shaken when sports-marketing agent Mike Ornstein pleaded guilty to two felonies for scalping Super Bowl tickets, as well as buying NFL jerseys online and selling them to collectors as clothing worn during the game.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation now regularly sends agents to the annual National Sports Collectors Convention and other shows to crack down on fraudsters trying to pass off uniforms they bought online as "authentic."
For those fans who can't afford a few thousand dollars for a game-day jersey, the trading-card companies are now selling cards that include just a swatch of a jersey. On eBay recently, a 2008 Matt Forte rookie card with a swatch of a Chicago Bears uniform was going for about $100.
Another low-end item is miniature autographed helmets. Website Robbie's First Base in Baltimore recently listed a helmet signed by Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco for $109; a Ray Lewis autographed miniature sells for $10 more.
As for Mr. Greene, it's probably too late for him to profit from the jersey used in the famous ad. The former NFL star didn't return requests for comment, but Coca-Cola says he really did give the shirt away—to the kid.

A day is simply not enough to experience this vast pristine environment. Would love to come back again for a 3-4 day trip through the area
Long trip but well worth the time, Deb was very knowledgeable and good fun and the scenery was spectacular. Charlie made the Wetlands Cruise very interesting and had a lot of information about the crocodiles and the birds. Would highly recommend this tour.
Our guide was very thoughtful and the Wetlands River Cruise was fantastic.
The tour was amazing! Our tour guide Deb was a great people person who had all of the local knowledge! She was the reason I rated the tour 5 stars.
Saw a lot of Kakadu that we wouldn't have seen on our own. Very tired at the end of the day
This trip was well worth the long drive. The driver Alison was very informative in relation to Darwins history and it on going development, the aboriginal culture and the stories behind indigenous paintings. The buffet lunch was delicious and enjoyed by all. The Mary River cruise was fantastic and refreshing. Ruben was a wonderful guide and passionate about his heritage. Overall even though I have lived in Australia for 57 years I am still learning about this magnificent country and its people. I would recommend this trip to all visiting Darwin.
Driving rather lengthy but rock art and water trip fabulous Reuben was a great guide in the water
The day was brilliant, from the prompt hotel pick up to being dropped off back at the same spot. Will, outré driver/guide was entertaining and knowledgable. The highlight for me was the Corroborree Billabong cruise. We were lucky enough to see three really large crocs up on the bank with a dead water buffalo. Out guide told us that this was very rare as crocodiles are very territorial but will put aside disputes for a good meal! Overall, a day trip I would heartily recommend.
Great trip. Superb driver, Dave, on the bus, very informative. Long drive but worth it. Mary River cruise fantastic. Ruben was an amazing host. Obviously very proud of his culture and the company he works for. Really did us all proud. All in all a very enjoyable day complemented by ther others on the tour, our hosts, the information provided and the scenery.
My wife and I loved the trip. Guide was very good and provided a lot of information. The birds were out of this world. Too hot for the crocs to show much.
Dr M S Campo United Kingdom
It was a thoroughly outstanding day! The Ubirr art was misterious and very interesting, the nature trail fascinating and the Mary River Cruise out of this world!
This trip was extremely well organised. The driver/guide told us very interesting stories about aboriginal culture and provided us with information on the locations we traveled through on our way to Kakadu. Also the boat trip on the Mary river was very lovely and interesting.
Great experience, a long time spent on the bus but Ubirr and Mary River are worth it! Breathtaking landscapes and art, loads of wildlife to see and a nice and competent guide! A++
David B Australia
This was a long day, but very interesting and with great views. The tour had changed from our booking from Yellow River to Mary River Wetlands. Our guide was excellent. The visit to the aboriginal paintings were great and cultural was very educational but the highlight of the tour was the Mary River wetlands cruise. There was heaps of crocodiles and the water lilies were beautiful and too sit among them and sip on champagne and eat fruit was so peaceful. The bird life was wonderful. Overall the day was inspiring.
This was a wonderful Experience. Our Brazilian Guide, Fabiana was wonderful, with great local knowledge and a great manner. We saw great Aboriginal art, Museums and a wonderful cruise on the Mary River, with another great guide, who knew where all the crocodiles lived. I was surprised by the lack of bird life, which I believe is more evident on the Yellow River Cruise.
The tour of Kakadu was excellent and our tour guide, Fabiana, was one of the best I have experienced in many years. She has had extensive experience in South America and Australia and this tour is to be recommended. It was far superior to others I have done in this area.
Never been before so was a good experience
The coach was clean and comfortable. Driver/ guide was well informed and friendly. The day was well paced; Ubirr was wonderful and the cruise was very enjoyable. I'd do it again - thank you for a great day
very informative and helpful guides, enjoyable and fun day with a good lunch provision
Stephen S Australia
An excellent tour. Well organised, our tour guide/driver was excellent also, very informative, friendly. Had a great day, and loved the sites covered.
Had a fantastic guide who made the day pass so quickly and enjoyably.
Excellent tour. Well planned. Very informative guides (and drivers). Thank you Rob and Robert for the wonderful day.
This was a good way to explore Kakadu from Darwin. Especially enjoyed the Guluyambi cruise, didn't find like one of your other commentators that too much time was spent in cafes or shops. Had an excellent experience on the cruise, all around.
Excellent trip. The day flew. Our guide Allison was very friendly and knowledgable- and Reuben who operated the cruise was fantastic.thoroughly enjoyable and educational day.
This tour was great from pick up to drop off ,provided a great opportunity to see Aboriginal art .
Lunch was great just what was needed on a hot day fresh salad in air-conditioned resort. Our tour guide Alison was polite and very knowledgeable on her subject. The info was just right- not a non stop monologue often provided by guides. Alison had the right balance of humour and was careful to ensure everyone had water/sunscreen for the walk to the aboriginal art .
Reuben the guide on the Mary river wetlands cruise was passionate, delightful, funny and certainly knowledgeable on his subject. Reuben knew the locations of many of the birds species and took time to ensure everyone on board had located and pictured the species. The treat was the glass of bubbly and fruit provided sitting in the boat listening to the sounds of the birds

Thurman, not wearing makeup and at times her hands shaking, recounted her reaction when the accused delivered a card bearing a picture of an open grave and a man standing on the edge of a razor blade: "I was completely freaked out. It was like a nightmare. It was scary," she said, Reuters reports.
Thurman said she received the card from defendant Jack Jordan in November 2005, while shooting a movie near her downtown New York City home. She also said it contained the written message, "My hands should be on your body at all times."
The actress, 38, said Jordan approached her trailer on the set and requested to see her – only to be halted by her assistant, who promised to deliver Jordan's card to her.
She also said that when she called her family in upstate New York to alert them about what she had received, Thurman's father responded by informing her that he too had gotten e-mail messages from Jordan, and that Jordan had also communicated with the actress's mother and brother.
History 'Terrifying'"I felt a stone drop in my stomach," said the actress. "The idea that this had a history made it even more terrifying."
In the courtroom Thursday, for what was the third day of his trial, Jordan reportedly sat staring straight ahead or casting his eyes down during Thurman's testimony. She did not look at him.
Jordan, 37, stands accused of trailing and attempting to contact Thurman from early 2005 until late last year. Charges against him include stalking and aggravated harassment, for which he could face up to one year in jail, if convicted.
In all, Jordan has been indicted on five counts: attempting to commit crime of coercion in the first degree; stalking in the fourth degree; and aggravated harassment in the second degree.

PATERSON — Burglars broke into the home of Paterson's next mayor while he celebrated his victory on Election Night.
Police are not sure if the burglars knew they were targeting Joey Torres or whether the Tuesday night heist was just a coincidence.
The mayor-elect tells NorthJersey.com the burglars got into his house through a side window and made off with some sentimental items belonging to his wife.
Torres says he doesn't want to be treated any differently than anyone else who had a burglary.
Mayor Jeffery Jones' home was burglarized in 2001 and his Marine Corps ring was stolen.

UNIVERSITY PARK - Ariel Edwards' second free throw attempt with 41 seconds left was good, bringing a cheer from the home crowd and putting an end to the only real suspense Sunday at the Bryce Jordan Center.
The junior's basket proved to be the final point in a decisive victory by the Penn State women's basketball team. In the process, it's triggered a promotion that gave fans free McDonald's Chicken McNuggets.
For the 3,700 in attendance, there wasn't much else to worry about.
Maggie Lucas and Mia Nickson scored 12 points, and the No. 9 Lady Lions jumped out to a 14-0 lead en route to a 75-34 victory over Lafayette.
Lucas added nine rebounds and four steals for Penn State (3-0), which improved to 20-0 all-time against opponents from the Patriot League.
Lucas shot 5-of-16 from the field but made up for it by falling one rebound short of her second career double-double.
"Our focus for today, for the guards, was putting a body on, getting boards," Lucas said. "That was something I had a focus on. Sometimes, a shot may not fall as much as I'd like it to, so you've got to find a way to make an impact in other ways."
Emily Homan scored 11 points to lead Lafayette (1-3), which was coming off a 39-point loss to Villanova four days earlier. Danielle Fiacco, the Leopards' top scorer, missed all 10 of her shots and was held scoreless. Lafayette shot 19.7 percent (12-for-61) from the field.
Fiacco, who was also the team's top rebounder, committed two fouls in the first 63 seconds and was taken out, putting Lafayette at a disadvantage from the outset. The 6-foot-7 center played only six minutes in the first half because of foul trouble.
"When she had to go out early, that certainly put us on our heels offensively," Lafayette coach Dianne Nolan said. "There's not really a substitute for Danielle on our team so, when she had to sit, obviously a much smaller inside post player replaces her and they weren't able to get the shots off that they needed."
Lafayette missed five shots and committed four turnovers in its first eight possessions. Annette Snow's jumper with 15:36 broke the scoring drought. By then, Penn State was ahead 14-2 and the Leopards got no closer the rest of the way.
Freshman center Candice Agee, who scored her first seven career points and added four rebounds in 18 minutes, said Fiacco's absence was an advantage for Penn State.
"I think it really made it a lot easier for us to set into our offense," she said. "Her two quick fouls in the first minute of the game really made it easier for us defensively. She's a big threat. Her coming in still was a problem for us. Just luckily, we were able to make the adjustment and defend."
The Lady Lions held the Leopards without a field goal for 8:22 later in the first half and built their lead to 28 points. They went into halftime with a 42-14 advantage.
"I thought we came out very focused," Penn State coach Coquese Washington said. "I thought the first half we played pretty good basketball."
Lafayette got as close as 23 points in the second half. Dara Taylor's free throw with 4:58 left gave Penn State its largest lead at 66-23.
All 10 players scored and played at least 10 minutes for the Lady Lions.
"It says a lot," Lucas said. "Everybody can come in and make a huge impact for our team and that makes us very lucky. Down the line, everyone comes in and does their job."
Nikki Greene, Penn State's 6-4 center, sat the final 18:40 after being involved in a collision underneath the basket.
Washington said the senior was hit in the mouth and nose, and didn't return for precautionary reasons. Greene finished with six points and six rebounds in 10 minutes.

The annual NFL Scouting Combine is a job fair like none other.
For an entire week, key front-office personnel from all 32 member clubs will be on hand to observe and interview more than 400 college prospects who have declared for the league's annual player selection meeting, or "draft," as it's more commonly known.
With the New York Giants having a load of needs at virtually every position, here's a look at the positions they might be targeting when they attend the combine.
Unless otherwise noted, draft prospect evaluations are via NFL Draft Scout through CBSSports.com; pro player ratings and stats are via Pro Football Focus (subscription required); and all opinions regarding what the Giants could do are mine and mine alone.

Much has been written about the use of the various Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) scoring methods. The APACHE score, a measure of physiologic derangement, chronic health status, and patient age, has not demonstrated consistent validity for surgical patients. There is substantial skepticism about the analytical role of this type of classification system. Koperna et al1 highlight the usefulness of APACHE II in risk stratification in emergency surgical patients.

A coalition of Lancaster County partners has raised $6 million in local pledges and have applied for an equal amount in federal Promise Neighborhood grants to help kids growing up in the Clinton Elementary attendance zone.
The application deadline, extended from the original Sept. 6 because of severe weather around the country, was Friday.
Sharon Novinger, executive director for Lancaster County Partners for Youth, said she is excited after having completed the application. It took about two weeks to write the 80-page narrative.
Lorenzo Small, a candidate for the District 2 Lancaster County school board seat, withdrew from the race Thursday, citing personal reasons.
"I've come to the conclusion that the best way for me to serve the Lancaster community is solely focused on the role as pastor for Pleasant Ridge Presbyterian Church," Small said. "My wife and I are currently heavily involved here in Lancaster County schools, especially Clinton Elementary, and we will continue to offer our services to the Lancaster County School District."
It started with a man running from Lancaster's Home Depot with three stolen string trimmers and jumping into a getaway car parked between the mulch pallets.
It ended two hours later after a K-9 search and a police foot-chase through the backyards of nearby Gregwood.
A Concord, N.C., couple were jailed Sept. 16 after the incident at the Home Depot on S.C. 9 Bypass West.
Steven Michael Vanderburg, 28, was arrested by Lancaster Police Department officers about two hours after the theft, running through the Gregwood subdivision.
Lancaster's F3 Nation workout group for men has expanded its Saturday daybreak workouts to Wednesdays on Main Street, and a women's group might be coming soon.
Wednesday morning's turnout was 18, including five new to F3. They met in the Lancaster County Administrative Building parking lot at 5:15 a.m. for an hour-long workout.
Jamie Jones, from F3 Rock Hill, led the workouts up and down Main Street. Jones, known as Apache to his F3 brothers, said the turnout exceeded his expectations.

The gasoline shortage that hit Lancaster County hard over the weekend and has lingered since should start easing in the next few days, according to the S.C. Emergency Management Division.
On Tuesday, Colonial Pipeline in Alabama, whose leaking pipeline cut gas supplies across the Southeast, announced that it had finished bypassing the damaged section and gas should start flowing through the pipeline again today.
A three-vehicle wreck on S.C. 9 in eastern Lancaster County killed a Pageland woman, injured a Kershaw woman and closed the highway for at least four hours Wednesday.
Norma Jean Plyler Moree, 69, of Pageland died in the accident, which occurred near Earnhardt Lane about 4 miles east of Buford Crossroads, according to S.C. Highway Patrol Lance Cpl. Gary Miller.
Miller said Moree was following a tractor trailer west on S.C. 9 at 10:24 a.m. in a 2011 Toyota Camry when Heather Marie Rollings, 23, of Kershaw crossed the center line in a 2002 GMC pickup traveling east.
In reference to Dianne T. Evans' column that took exception to my saying, "Where did that garbage come from… psychology 101?" about a Phil Noble article, I reply with this.
It is an understood saying that means the person doesn't know what he's talking about and is trying to use psychology, even though he's either a novice or has no experience in the field at all. It meant Mr. Noble was trying to sound intelligent in the art of psychology, but had little knowledge of it.
Pageland Highway (S.C. 9) remained closed at 2:35 p.m. Wednesday as officials investigated a fatal automobile accident this morning near Earnhardt Road.
According to the S.C. Highway Patrol, the accident happened shortly before 10:24 a.m.
The Lancaster County Coroner's Office said the accident killed 69-year-old Norma Plyler Moree of 134 Faulkenberry Road, Pageland. An autopsy is scheduled for Thursday morning.
As a little girl, Teresa Jennette Faulk stripped her dolls down to their bare plastic skin and sat on the floor with her mom, armed with a sharp pair of scissors, a vivid imagination and pile of old clothes.
Teresa could see the new clothes in her mind. Together, she and her mom cut scraps from their discarded wardrobe to make new, fashionable outfits for the dolls.
"I cared more about the clothes than the dolls," Faulk recalls.
KERSHAW – Kershaw Town Council unanimously named Mitch Lucas town administrator this week, six months after he stepped into the job on an interim basis when the previous administrator left in a rush.
This continues Lucas' long-running service to Kershaw. He was a town council member from 1987-97 and mayor from April 1999 to June 2000. He retired in 2008 as the human resources director for the Lancaster County School District.

Walmart has plan options with cheap premiums but high deductibles.
Walmart's 2011 health care offerings include cheap premiums of $32.70 per pay period for family coverage – or $850.20 per year – however, this plan has a high annual deductible of $4,400. In addition, Walmart Associates covered by the health plan face a $10,000 out-of-pocket maximum. This is greater than the average of $7,096 for other plans of this type in 2010, the last year for which data is available.
High deductibles mean high costs for workers and their families.
- For benefit year 2011, Walmart's basic health insurance plan for families includes a $1,000 contribution from Walmart to a health reimbursement account (HRA), which can be used for eligible expenses but cannot be used for prescriptions.
- After a family uses up the HRA, they would have to pay a total of $5,250.20 of their own money for the $4,400 annual deductible and ongoing $32.70 bi-weekly premium before Walmart's insurance starts contributing anything toward healthcare costs again.
- For a family whose only income comes from a Walmart Associate making the company's self-reported full-time average wage of $11.75 an hour, this equals over 25% of their annual income.
- If you consider the $10,000 out-of-pocket maximum in addition to the $850.20 annual premium, that same family could pay over 52% of their income in a year for healthcare.1
Walmart's health care plan failed to cover nearly 700,000 associates in 2010.
In 2010, Walmart's health insurance covered only 54% of their Associates. Walmart has over 1.4 million US Associates.
Walmart has admitted that public assistance is a "better value."
Despite over $12 billion in profits, former President and CEO Lee Scott admitted in 2005, "In some of our states, the public program may actually be a better value – with relatively high income limits to qualify, and low premiums."
Taxpayers are forced to step in to cover Walmart's Associates.
Tens of thousands of Associates qualify for Medicaid and other publicly subsidized care. Indeed, according to data compiled by Good Jobs First, in 21 of 23 states which have disclosed information, Walmart has the largest number of employees on the public rolls of any employer.
Download a PDF of this Fact Sheet
- These calculations were performed for a family whose sole income is from a Walmart Associate earning the Walmart average full-time wage of $11.75/hour and working an average of 34 hours a week for 52 weeks a year.

Heller, Guns, and History: The Judicial Invention of Tradition
David Konig
Washington University in Saint Louis - School of Law
June 11, 2012
Northeastern University Law Journal, Vol. 3, p. 175, 2011
Washington University in St. Louis Legal Studies Research Paper No. 12-05-25
It is a widely accepted fact that the firearm mortality rate in the United States exceeds that of any comparable nation. This article explores why, from a historical perspective, the United States permits widespread private use of firearms and how gun violence has been framed as a product of cultural tradition. It is not the purpose of this article to question the historical existence of such violence, which is overwhelming, but to question its historical normativity – that is, to ask why our culture has permitted this violence. As a descriptive matter, such violence has become a tradition; as a normative matter, by contrast, it is very much an invented tradition. What is invented, that is, is not the fact of its existence, but rather its elevation to a normative status which distorts the past and grants this tradition constitutional acknowledgment. What once was a regrettable and embarrassing fact of life has become a widely accepted, and often admired tradition.

Laura Candler at Corkboard Connections had the great idea of starting an October Learning link up! Since this is such a fun time of year, I definitely wanted to join the fun. You can click here for all of the links!
My freebie is my October Creative Writing book. There are 16 writing prompts that all have an October theme. There are prompts about fall, fire prevention, and Christopher Columbus, and each prompt requires students to think outside the box. I now have free books for October-May in my TpT Store. I do plan to add a September version in the future. You can click here for your free copy!
I also have something for my math friends! It is a very brief, yet fun, pumpkin measuring activity. In this activity, students measure the weight, height, and circumference of two pumpkins and find the difference in measurements for each category. Just click on the picture for your copy!

Oh, wow: supple swaths of Wyoming Foie Gras with toast points Sébastien. Superlatively fine grain pâté for such free-range derivation, I am impressed! Not a lot of fiber, but presumably that will come in a later course. Meanwhile, lavish mouthfeel with a piquant core of sustained volatility. And you were thinking an older Champagne, I suppose?ReplyDelete

The Lane twins, Gary and Larry, are interviewed after their first day on the course of the popular ABC primetime game show "Winter Wipeout."
All it took were two cases of whiplash and a week's worth of hobbling around, barely able to walk, but on Thursday, Wayne County will find out if the Lane twins' latest adventure was worth it. Appearing on ABC's...

After six dates, Tigres leads the competition with 16 points. Ricardo Ferreti's team is by far the best in every line.
It has the best offense, with 15 goals, and one of the strongest defenses having allowed only four goals.
América tracks the northern team closely. "Las Águilas" are back in the winners' circle after defeating Xolos in their visit to Tijuana.
Chiapas, San Luis and León continued their winless streak. They are the only clubs in the competition that have yet to win.
Atlas is the revelation of the tournament. Another victory for the "Zorros", this time in front of Atlante, put the club inside the top eight.

Obama wants gun violence measures passed in 2013
WASHINGTON -- Recalling the shooting rampage that killed 20 first-graders as the worst day of his presidency, President Barack Obama on Sunday pledged to put his "full weight" behind legislation aimed at preventing gun violence.
Obama voiced skepticism about the National Rifle Association's proposal to put armed guards in schools following the Dec. 14 tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. The president made his comments in an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press."
Instead, the president vowed to rally the American people around an agenda to limit gun violence, adding that he still supports increased background checks and bans on assault weapons and high-capacity bullet magazines. He left no doubt it will be one of his top priorities in 2013.
"It is not enough for us to say, 'This is too hard so we're not going to try,'" Obama said.
"I think there are a vast majority of responsible gun owners out there who recognize that we can't have a situation in which somebody with severe psychological problems is able to get the kind of high-capacity weapons that this individual in Newtown obtained and gun down our kids," he added. "And, yes, it's going to be hard."
The president added that he's ready to meet with Republicans and Democrats, anyone with a stake in the issue.
The schoolhouse shootings, coming as families prepared for the holidays, have elevated the issue of gun violence to the forefront of public attention. Six adult staff members were also killed at the elementary school. Shooter Adam Lanza committed suicide, apparently as police closed in. Earlier, he had killed his mother at the home they shared.
The tragedy immediately prompted calls for greater gun controls. But the NRA is strongly resisting those efforts.
The president said he intends to press the issue with the public.
"The question then becomes whether we are actually shook up enough by what happened here that it does not just become another one of these routine episodes where it gets a lot of attention for a couple of weeks and then it drifts away," Obama said. "It certainly won't feel like that to me. This is something that -- you know, that was the worst day of my presidency. And it's not something that I want to see repeated."

Snow in Denver's Monday afternoon forecast
DENVER — Enjoy the dry morning drive Monday, because by the time the evening rush hour rolls around, the snow is expected to be coming down.
Meteorologist Chris Tomer is predicting that the skies will start out sunny Monday — much like they did over the course of a beautiful weekend that saw temperatures in the high 60s. But they aren't predicted to last for long.
"Expect the skies to quickly turn cloudy with some rain-snow mixture developing around 5 p.m.," Tomer said. "I'm forecasting up to two inches across the I-25 corridor, and up to eight inches possible in the foothills."
Fellow meteorologist Jennifer Broome is forecasting that the best chance for the Denver metro area to see snow is between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m., so don't be shocked to see rain at 5 p.m. that could potentially turn into snow.
During the sunny patches Monday morning, Broome and Tomer both expect the highs to reach 50 degrees before quickly fall into the 30s and 40s in the afternoon.
While there may be a few morning flurries Tuesday, they aren't expected to last. The cold temperatures, on the other hand, are expected to stick around. High temperatures aren't expected to creep out of the 30s Tuesday.
As far as the snow-starved ski areas are concerned, Broome expects this storm system to bring some good news. She's forecasting that Summit County could see between two and four feet by the time this storm system clears out on Thursday.
Tomer is forecasting that ski areas like Telluride, Silverthorne, Monarch, Wolf Creek and Purgatory could be celebrating the most, as he expects the San Juan Mountains to get the biggest helping of snow, with between one and two feet in the forecast on Wednesday alone.
For those of you who have been enjoying the mild Winter, don't fret. Both Broome and Tomer are expecting temperatures to warm up to the 40s by Wednesday and into the 50s Friday with another dry, warm weekend on the horizon.

Israel Line Monday, June 13, 1994
ARROW Missile Test Hailed a SuccessToday's AL HAMISHMAR reports that the seventh flight test of the ARROW anti-missile missile system was carried out successfully yesterday morning. In the test, the ARROW intercepted and destroyed a surrogate tactical ballistic missile. AL HAMISHMAR reports that Israel Aircraft Industries, which developed the ARROW, and American officials invited to attend the event, expressed much satisfaction over the success of the flight test. According to the report, this was the last test of the ARROW 1, with subsequent tests to be carried out using the more advanced ARROW 2 model.

Model Adriana Lima has some advice for anyone planning an extreme diet to imitate her slim physique when she struts on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show runway: Don't try this at home.
"Those teenagers out there, don't go starving yourself or only drinking liquids. Don't do that please," she told ET Canada Thursday.
Lima's plea comes after she was quoted Monday saying that in the run-up to the annual shows, she works out twice a day and drinks only protein shakes for nine days.
She indulges in "no solids" for those days, and then, for 12 hours before the show, "No liquids at all so you dry out, sometimes you can lose up to eight pounds just from that," Lima, 30, told the U.K.'s Daily Telegraph.
But, she says now, her regimen is not as extreme as it seems. At the show on Wednesday, Lima – mom to 2-year-old Valentina with husband Marko Jaric – showed ET Canada her backstage snacks, which included coffee, water and a piece of cake.
"I have my Starbucks coffee right there ... it was a misunderstanding," she said of her comments to the Telegraph, which got a lot of attention this week.
However, after her initial comments made waves, she defended the extreme measures to E! – while emphasizing the diet is not something she does for long.
"I know it's very intense but ... I just have an athlete's mind and I appreciate doing this thing," she said. "It's not that I do crazy diets throughout the year. I just do it for this particular thing. After this show, I become normal again."

House lawmakers voted to bring IRS official Lois Lerner back, saying she violated her right to remain silent about the agency's targeting of conservative groups over their tax exemption status.
Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee investigating the scandal say they're concerned about violating Lerner's Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate herself.
"I think all of us, on both sides of the aisle, want to hear what Miss Lerner has to say, and what information she may want to bring; we all want to do our job and get on with the investigation that underlies all of this," Rep. John Tierney, D-Mass., said.
"But I think we all hopefully are just as concerned about making sure that this committee upholds the Constitution," he said.
But Republicans claim she waived that right when she declared her innocence in a hearing in May, and that the biggest issue facing the committee shouldn't be obscured.
"We are not here with regard to Lois Lerner," Rep. Patrick Meehan, R-Penn., said. "We are here because there were American citizens who were affected by the agency that she oversaw who used their authority in the IRS to what we believe to be an oppressive fashion against what could be their consitutional rights and potentially in a criminal fashion."
National polls show three out of four Americans believe the IRS should be investigated for targeting political groups, especially after the agency admitted it went after religious groups and the Tea Party under Lerner's watch.
"In fact she may have been a bad person for a few decades now," Sen. Rand Paul said.
At a recent event held by the Competitive Enterprise Institute, Paul pointed out Lerner has a long history of targeting conservatives as a bureaucrat.
"Turns out she was in the FEC ten years ago telling a Republican candidate that if he would just renounce the idea of running for office, he would promise never to run for office again, she would drop the charges," Paul said. "He spent $100,000 defending himself."
Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee may be able to provide some protection for Lerner and other government officials. But the widespread IRS harassment of citizens for their political views is bound to be a hot subject in many more hearings on Capitol Hill.

Hate the Mac App Store? Just trash it
To each his own. I'm liking Apple's new Mac App Store and once the majority of developers move their stuff over, which I think is gonna happen fast, finding and updating software will be one-stop shopping convenient. Further, with my account faithfully managed by Apple — knock on laminate — there will be no need to keep local backups, leaving more space for movies, music and pictures.
But, what if you don't like or, gawd forbid, actually hate the Mac App Store? Well the solution is Mac easy — just delete it. Drag it to the Trash and empty with prejudice.
Moreover, once it's gone Mac OS X will recognize the change and replace "App Store" in the Apple Menu with "Get Mac OS X Software," which is still a part of Apple.com and chock full as ever with all the latest and greatest third-party software.
So, whether you've already installed Mac OS X 10.6.6 or have been avoiding the update because you don't want the Mac App Store, worry not — it's just so not a problem (because you've gotta Mac)…
What's your take?

Acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) of the pancreas is an uncommon malignancy that accounts for 1% of pancreatic exocrine malignant tumors. This malignancy has a slight male preponderance with a peak age in the seventh decade of life.1 A specific syndrome of subcutaneous fat necrosis (pancreatic panniculitis) and polyarthralgias is encountered when excessive lipase is secreted from the tumor, as manifested by our patient. Additional endocrine symptoms may be seen because of increased serum levels of insulin, insulinlike growth factors, and glucagon. The tumor size at presentation tends to be larger for ACC than pancreatic adenocarcinoma and typical findings on computed tomography are a solitary, well-defined, heterogenous, hypodense mass with a well-defined enhancing capsule.1- 3
Acinar cell carcinomas of the pancreas are highly cellular tumors that have 4 well-described growth patterns: acinar, cellular, trabecular, and glandular. Characteristically, the tumor cells will show increased cellularity with minimal stroma and have positive immunostaining for periodic acid–Schiff and trypsin.1
The single largest institutional case series included 39 patients diagnosed with ACC over a 21-year period.4 The lipase hypersecretion syndrome was rare even in this small group. Nine patients were noted to have elevated serum lipase levels and only 3 patients had subcutaneous manifestations in this series. However, the association between underlying pancreatic disease and distant cutaneous fat necrosis has been well characterized. In a Mayo Clinic series of 11 patients with pancreatic panniculitis, 6 of the patients had underlying pancreatic carcinoma and 5 patients had underlying pancreatitis. Arthritic symptoms were present in most of the patients and major morbidity and mortality were high among all patients.5 Skin changes with underlying pancreatic pathology are also seen in patients with glucagomas. In contrast to the deep and focal areas of adipocyte necrosis seen in pancreatic panniculitis, migratory necrolytic erythema of glucagonoma syndrome has superficial mucocutaneous involvement on areas of trauma or friction that grossly appear as macular erythematous annular plaques and microscopically show hyperkeratosis.6
Adjuvant therapy is often used and all patients diagnosed with ACC should undergo serum lipase measurement, which may be a useful marker to assess response to therapy. Surgical resection offers the only chance of cure and prolongs survival.1- 4 Compared with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, patients with ACC tend to have a higher resectability rate with 5-year survival rates of 44% to 72% after surgical resection, according to recent reports from large American7 and Japanese8 tumor registries.

Eureka's Sheriff Is Moving To Haven
Eureka's former sheriff, Colin Ferguson, will be returning to Syfy, joining the fourth season of its series, Haven, for a season-long story arc.
Syfy Anniversary Special Will Feature Stars from Eureka, Battlestar Galactica and More
Syfy is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a star-studded special that will premiere on December 10th. Stars from Alphas, Battlestar Galactica, Being Human, Caprica, Defiance, Eureka, Farscape, Haven, Lost Girl, Sanctuary, Stargate: SG1 and Warehouse 13 will be putting in appearance during the show.
Eureka: how a series finale is supposed to be
I'll admit that I'm typing this review through a cloud of tears that are fogging up my vision. But, fortunately, although I am sad to see Eureka go, I am happy that this series finale was the final gift that SyFy allowed the show's creators, writers, cast and crew to give us. It really stands as a testament as to what made this show so wonderful.
Eureka series finale: just another day?
Well, this is it, kids. The final episode of Eureka airs Monday night. I am entirely too sad, but looking forward to seeing how everything is wrapped up and grateful that a final episode had been granted by the powers-that-be at SyFy.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers on Eureka
Last week's Eureka was a doozy, wasn't it? I mean, the whole evil Holly thing and then the bodies getting swapped and the weird mirror stuff popping up around town due to the smart dust was insane!
New Eureka: Jo and Jack bet on Fargo
So how about last week's Eureka? My biggest thought coming out of that is that Felicia Day should win an Emmy for her portrayal of Holly.
Eureka's Holly gets a body?
If you've been following Eureka, you've been heartbroken about the death of Dr. Holly Martin. Of course, her spirit has continued to exist as a digital soul. Unfortunately, Holly isn't satisfied being a virtual being and asked Zane and Henry to help her create her a new synthetically-created body.
Sheriff Carter gets smart in an all-new Eureka
So who didn't get a little teary-eyed when Jack and Allison tied the knot on the brink of death on last week's Eureka? Of course, this relationship always has its bumps and I think the conversation about IQ they had on the submarine thing was foreshadowing to this week's new episode.

Meet the CW show's all-new cast - plus catch up with familiar faces Laura Leighton and Thomas Calabro
Sydney Andrews (Laura Leighton) left the original 'Melrose Place' at the end of the 1996-1997 season by way of death. This was her last scene on the show and it was said in the season premiere of the show's sixth season, without actually seeing her, that Syd had died. This was the perfect way for Sydney to go out - she had spent years being misunderstood and searching for love, and when she finally found it with Craig (who later blew his brains out)... ka-pow, she's done. Poetic ending for one of the greatest TV characters ever!
shit yea it looks sweet.
After weeks of speculation about who if any of the original
"Melrose Place" cast members might drop in on the CW's new "Melrose
Place," Laura Leighton has joined the CW pilot as a
She will reprise her role as the irresponsible and scheming

Day Two:
The Study tour arrived safe and ahead of schedule in Berlin.
The Full report for Thursday, May 10.
When we arrived in Berlin, we were met by our local guide.It was early, only 7:30 AM local time, and most of us only got a couple of hours of sleep on the plane or less.The flight was uneventful, with only some minor turbulence.The bus took us to our hotel after we all had a chance to exchange some dollars for Euros at the airport.Because it was so early, we could not check in right away, so we left our luggage in a secure room at the hotel and Dr. Hayse and Ms. Rosenthal took us on a tour of some of the sights near the hotel.Right outside of the hotel at Alexander Square is the Radio/TV tower built by the East German Communists in the 1960s.We saw the "Red Town Hall", the city hall built in red brick that was named, we heard, for it's red color, but was fitting for the seat of local power in Communist years. We went into the Protestant Church of St. Mary's (Marienkirche), the second oldest, Gothic church in Berlin, and lit some candles.
After checking into our rooms (modern and comfortable but SMALL!) and getting a little rest, we walked to the banks of the Spree River and took a river cruise though the historic heart of Berlin.We saw the buildings of the useum Island, Berlin Cathedral, and the many new structures built to house the German government in reunited Berlin. Especially impressive was the Reichstag (parliament) building, which burned down in 1933, giving the Nazis an excuse to impose a dictatorship.
After the cruise, we had dinner in an outside garden (Restaurant Paddenwirt) in the historic old city of Berlin, destroyed during the war and by Communist policy in the 1950s, but rebuilt in the 1980s.By the time dinner was done, we were all ready for bed!It was a short 15-minute walk back to the hotel, although some people stopped to buy souvenirs or to to try for internet access at Starbucks.

Part of the XXIII International Congress of the History of Science and Technology in Budapest
The International Committee for the History of Technology will hold its 36th symposium as part of the XXIII International Congress of the History of Science and Technology in Budapest. The general theme of the Congress is "Ideas and Instruments in Social Context" and ICOHTEC encourages proposals for sessions dealing with the history of technology within this broad framework. While open to all proposals, the program committee suggests the following subthemes for the consideration of session organizers and contributors:
- impact of ideas and ideologies on technical innovations
- theories in the history of technology
- impact of politics in technology during the Cold War
- social demands in shaping technology and designing products
- epistemic status of instruments and lab-technology
- interaction between ideas, theories, models, paradigms and the development of instruments
- use of lab-technology in everyday work
- instruments in different cultural and ethnological contexts
We urge contributors to consider organizing a full session of three or more papers. Individual paper submissions will, of course, be considered. It is also possible to propose papers unrelated to the general theme. They can be presented in a "Special Topics" session.
Note: Membership in ICOHTEC is not required to participate in the symposium.
INDIVIDUAL PAPER proposals must include: (1) a 250-word (maximum) abstract in English; and (2) a one-page CV. Abstracts should include the author's name and email address, a short informative title of the paper, a concise statement of the thesis, a brief discussion of the sources, and a summary of expected conclusions. In preparing your paper, remember that presentations are not full-length articles. You will have no more than 20 minutes speaking time, which is roughly equivalent to 8 double-spaced typed pages. Contributors are encouraged to submit full-length versions of their papers after the conference for consideration by ICOHTEC's journal ICON. If you are submitting a paper proposal dealing with a particular subtheme, please indicate this in your proposal.
SESSION proposals must include: (1) an abstract of the session (250 words maximum), listing the proposed papers and a session chairperson; (2) abstracts for each paper (250 words maximum); (3) a one-page CV for each contributor and chairperson. Sessions should consist of at least three speakers, and may include several sections of three speakers each, which might extend over more than one day.
Proposal submissions
The final deadline for all submissions is Monday 3 March 2008.
Please submit proposals for papers and sessions to Reinhold Bauer (chair of the program committee) at firstname.lastname@example.com
If email is unavailable, proposals may be sent by fax to Reinhold Bauer : 0049-40-6541-2762. Otherwise they may be sent via regular mail, postmarked 3 March 2008 to: Reinhold Bauer, Helmut Schmidt Universität, Universität der Bundeswehr Hamburg, Fakultät für Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften, Postfach 700822, D-22008 Hamburg, Germany.

so called "weak hand" by many pumpers, like reality and froggy, may be the smart money. Once again suckers like froggy may end up holding the bag FOREVER!!!. BIg day for these pumpers today. LOL
Once again the tool has coughed up a hair ball. At a time when most people are trying to offer up some quality opinions you have again wasted our time. If holding a "Bag" full of money at this point is a bad thing then yes, I'm guilty.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of Key Energy Services (NASDAQOTH: KEGX ) fell 15% today after the company reported earnings.
So what: First quarter revenue fell 12% from a year earlier, to $428.4 million, falling short of the $443.8 million estimate from Wall Street. Earnings per share were just $0.01, which was $0.02 worse than estimates, driven by a falling inland rig count.
Now what: This is a theme we've seen over and over again during the past two quarters. Service providers are suffering from weak demand despite record production, because drillers are becoming more efficient in their activities. Management does think activity will pick up as the year goes on, but I can't be a buyer, with revenue falling as fast as it did in the first quarter.

Samba 2.2.8a
RedHat Linux 8.0 Server
We are seeing a 1-2 minute delay in our environment (university labs
and classrooms) when we submit a print job from an XP client through
the Samba print queue to the printer. Printers vary, most are HP 4000
series printers, and all exhibit the same delay.
To add to the confusion - when we submit a print job from a box imaged
with JUST windows XP and no other software, it prints normally. The
print job starts almost immediately. We initially thought the print
delay might be a conflict with some of the other software applications
on our image, so we tested this theory by starting from scratch,
adding one application at a time, testing printing, adding another
application, testing printing, etc. We completed a fresh XP image,
with all applications required, and we were printing
fine...temporarily. Within a few minutes, the print delay appeared
again when we attempted to print.
Other issues noted: when we look at the printer icon in the printer
folder on the XP clients, it says "opening..." If we start a print
job, it will then say "initializing", and this is where the 1-2 minute
delay begins. During this "initialization" process, Windows is
frozen....can't open any applications or do anything until the printer
says "ready"...then, it prints normally. Prior to Samba, we were
using Novell, and we had no print delays. If we configure the XP
client to print via IP printing, there are no delays...only when we
attach to a Samba print queue, do we see the delay. We're stumped!
Sorry for the long post...any suggestions are appreciated!

Prior to Friday night's loss to El Paso, the Amarillo Gorillas hadn't allowed a power-play goal in its last four outings.
The Buzzards nixed that streak with two power-play goals en route to a 4-3 win. The top team in the Central Hockey League did the same on Saturday, as Tulsa got a second-period power-play goal from Todd Marcellus to push past Amarillo 2-0.
It was the Gorillas' second consecutive loss as they head to Indianapolis for a two-game tilt next weekend.
Four of Amarillo's five losses have come at home.
Marcellus beat starting goalie Shawn Degagne on assists from Derek Torinato and James Steer at the 14:19 mark. It was the third time this season that the Gorillas (4-5-0) have been shut out when Degagne started in goal.
Offensively, Amarillo had plenty of scoring chances in the first and final periods, but Oilers' goalie Rod Branch stuffed the Gorillas.
Branch, October's CHL Goaltender-of-the-Month, racked up 36 saves and stifled a late Gorilla power-play. All told, the British Columbia native stopped 39 Gorilla shots to preserve the shutout. Saturday's win was Branch's sixth of the season.
Branch's counterpart, Degagne, didn't fare as well. With less than seven minutes remaining in the second period, Marcellus slapped a low shot past Degagne (32 shots, 31 saves) to provide the Oilers just enough offense to steal the victory.
Marcellus clinched the game with less than a minute to play in the game when he recorded an empty-net goal off the final faceoff.
