After a day of violence against supporters of ousted Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi in Egypt in which more than 500 were killed, U.S. President Barack Obama took time off of a vacation to "strongly" condemn the violence by the interim Egyptian government in a short speech on Thursday.
Here's a guide to the key points of his speech:
1. Obama did not refer to the removal of Mohamed Morsi as a 'coup'.
Obama referred to "the military's intervention several weeks ago," but would not call the military's removal of Morsi, who was democratically elected, a coup.
Why not call a coup a coup?
It has to do with some arbitrary rules.
Reuters will explain:
"Labeling the intervention a coup would require the United States to cut its $1.5 billion in assistance for Egypt and take away what little leverage Washington has with Cairo, leaving it with few options to help shape events in Egypt."
2. Although the U.S. isn't cutting off funding, the relationship with Egypt will be modified.
The U.S. won't cut off the foreign aid it hands over to Egypt, which helps fund the military, but there will be changes to the political dynamic between the two countries, Obama said.
Obama said that "our traditional cooperation cannot continue as usual when civilians are being killed in the streets and rights are being rolled back," according to a transcript of his remarks prepared by the Washington Post.
Specifically, that means that a planned military exercise with Egypt has been canceled.
"As a result, this morning we notified the Egyptian government that we are canceling our biannual joint military exercise, which was scheduled for next month."
Obama said his national security team is looking into further steps "that we may take as necessary".
3. Obama issued a clear list of demands of Egypt.
The president called on Egypt to:
- Put an end to violence both by and against protestors
- Lift the state of emergency
- Allow all parties "to have a voice in Egypt's future"
- Respect the human rights of women and minorities
- Reform the constitution in a transparent fashion and hold democratic elections
4. The president said that the U.S. is not taking sides.
"Let me make one final point," Obama said, according to the Washington Post's transcript. "America cannot determine the future of Egypt. That's a task for the Egyptian people. We don't take sides with any particular party or political figure. I know it's tempting inside of Egypt to blame the United States or the West or some other outside actor for what's gone wrong."

Ancestry & Art: bond unveiled in the 'Raven's Eye'
Art, ancestry and traditions of Vancouver Island's Kwakiutl First Nation's Peoples come together in a special exhibition at Arctic Raven Gallery, featuring brothers Trevor and Jason Hunt.
The exhibition, entitled "Through the Eyes of the Raven", offers an opportunity to experience art from an artists' perspective, and from that of their ancestors as well. The exhibition opens June 8, at the Friday Harbor gallery, 130 South First Street.
"When we carve, our ancestors carve," Trevor Hunt says. "Through my eyes, others can see and through my hands, others can feel."
Descended from Raven Clan on Vancouver Island, Jason and Trevor Hunt hail from a long line of acclaimed carvers. They often work closely with their father, the renowned carver Stanley Hunt. Their grandfather, the iconic Henry Hunt, was for most of his adult life the head carver at Victoria's Thunderbird Park.
Their great grandfather, Mungo Martin, is said to have embodied Kwakiutl culture and dedicated his life to carving in public at a time when the making of Kwakiutl art had been outlawed.

Peter Jackson
The day I was born, my father popped out to pick up some cigars. When he entered the store, he was greeted by a display for a new brand of cigarettes: Peter Jackson Filtered Kings.
The name had been around since the 1930s in a regular-sized brand called Peter Jackson Virginia. But Imperial Tobacco had just launched the new king-sized cigarettes to replace its predecessor.
So, instead of stogies, those are what everyone puffed on to welcome me into the world.
The other day, I happened upon a photo of the original packaging for that 1961 brand, which I've reproduced here.
Something was missing, however; it took me a minute or two to figure it out. Then it dawned on me — no health warning.
Of course! This was when cigarettes were still good for you. They relaxed you, calmed your nerves and helped facilitate social interaction.
Everything was so black and white back then.
I've endured a lot of ribbing over the years because of my name. Sometimes, total strangers would snicker and giggle. Occasionally, I'd play dumb: "I'm sorry, I don't know what you're on about." Usually, though, I'd just laugh along at my own expense.
Lately, it's not so bad. The younger crowd now associates me with that New Zealand fellow who directed "Lord of the Rings."
I say all this with tongue in cheek, of course. It's not really a big deal going through life with a semi-famous name.
It's not like my parents were, say, Chicago Cubs fans and decided to name me Wrigley Alexander Fields (which a couple actually did a few years ago). And I'm not in the same company with much more mockworthy monikers like Al Fresco and Brooke Trout.
Besides, most people take great pride in their names, no matter how odd. I'm reminded of that chap with a name like Hymie Göttheschitz who put in a request at the registry to have it changed.
"What would you like to change it to, sir?"
"Ezra Göttheschitz," comes the reply.
Which leads me to an astonishing news story on the wire last week. If you think North Americans are litigious, get a load of this court case in France.
According to Agence France-Press, French automaker Renault had to fend off a lawsuit from families of the same name who complained it would bring ridicule on their relatives called Zoé by giving that forename to its planned 2012 electric car.
The new car will actually be called the Renault ZOE, so the exact parallel would only crop up during roll call. And the trademark specifies the name be capitalized without the customary French accent on the "e."
Nonetheless, the two Renault families who filed the complaint feel any child given that surname would suffer unimaginable torture for the rest of her life.
"We don't want to hear, 'It's time for your oil change' or 'Show us your airbags,'" the families' lawyer, David Koubbi, told the court last month.
The case was thrown out, but Koubbi said they would appeal.
Car companies, as everyone knows, go through an extensive process to come up with new names. They have to make sure the name is not already trademarked, and that it doesn't mean something rude in another language.
If they also had to worry about duplicating the names of individual people, it would be a nightmare.
True, I doubt you'll find many "Chevrolet Impalas" listed in the phone book, but there must be countless people out there whose names coincide with other product brands. How about Johnny Walker? Joe Boxer? Swiffer WetJet? (OK, not so much that last one.)
Even Koubbi admits that as more companies turn to people names, the possibilities are endless.
"If you're lucky, you could end up as a pretty pot of flowers. If you're not, as a whip, a vibrating dildo or a toilet brush."
I guess that risk is even greater if your last name is Leather, Shaft or Bristle.
Sometimes, though, there's no way you could see it coming. I heard some years ago of an unfortunate soul named Diet Coke, although that may have been a myth.
But what's in a name?
Even if your name is Klem Kaddidlehopper, surely you can conquer the stigma of that old caricature by comedian Red Skelton. Come to think of it, Red Skelton wasn't the most dignified name in the world, either.
But names are not important.
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. And I'm sure my grandmother Rose would have heartily agreed.
Meanwhile, if you're thinking of making me the "butt" of any cigarette jokes, don't bother. I've heard them all.
And like a puff of smoke, I've learned to rise above it.
Peter Jackson is The Telegram's commentary editor. Email: firstname.lastname@example.com. Got a weird name? Let me know and I'll publish it for everyone to see.

Today's stage was the first that was truly stress free - both on the mind and the body. The course was a 10-mile circuit around the city of Milan that resembled a really big criterium. We were to do 10 laps around the course, which would make for a 100-mile day.
As we did our first lap it was clear that the riders were tired of the crazy, stressful and dangerous finishing circuits that have defined many of the first week's stages. This course was more of the same, with railroad tracks scattered throughout - even in some of the turns.
Cyclist awoken from coma after crash
After riders protest, Team Columbia wins third consecutive stage
Immediately, the riders decided together to protest the stage. After seeing one of our own - Spanish rider Pedro Horrillo of the Rabobank team - seriously injured in a crash on Saturday that briefly left him in a coma, we weren't messing around. So we decided to come to a complete stop at the finish line after completing one of the circuits. Race leader Danilo Di Luca was elected to speak for the field, and he announced to the crowd of thousands that we felt that the course was too dangerous to race for the overall classification.
We came to a compromise with the Giro's organizers: Riders still interested in racing could contest the stage for the win but no time from today's stage would count toward the overall classification.
Team Astana benefited greatly from the decision, since we no longer had to risk our top riders in an attempt to remain in contention for the overall win. As a result, with the exception of Daniel Navarro, the Astana team stayed out of trouble and away from crashes. And with Danny suffering only a small amount of road rash, we felt like it was a successful day. Most of the team dropped back from the main field with six miles to go and finished together with the other race favorites, several minutes back from the stage winner, Mark Cavendish of Team Columbia.
Immediately after crossing the finish line, we headed back to the team bus. We had to prepare for a 150-mile transfer to the hotel for the night, so we got straight to work showering and preparing for the trip. Everyone was motivated to get on the road quickly, since the sooner we got going the sooner we would be at the next destination.
Once again, our bus had a huge crowd all around it as fans clamored for Lance Armstrong's autograph or picture. As with every other stage, Lance didn't disappoint. He jumped out of the bus as soon as he had showered and took a few minutes to make the crowd's day. The guy is a machine when it comes to everything he does, going non-stop to try to fulfill everyone's expectations. He signs hundreds of autographs every day, even when the rest of us are so tired we couldn't even think about leaving our comfy seats.
In the bus our spirits were high. I settled into my spot on the couch, to talk about the stage with the boys and take in some more calories. After that, it was time to go. I focused on winding down and relaxing, passing the time with my beloved portable DVD player. Technology is my best friend on the road!
So far Team Astana has stuck to the plan, to save as much energy as we can for the next two crucial weeks of racing. With only some minor time loss for Levi and myself on the second stage, and Danny's small crash today, we feel pretty good about how we have survived the crazy first block of racing here at the Giro. The team is looking great for the coming weeks, where we will hopefully have a chance to show how strong the team really is by getting the leader's jersey and/or some stage wins.
Monday is a day off from racing. This will be the only chance to rest up and recover before the next six days of hard racing begin, where the stages are going to become more and more epic. That is where the real battle to become the winner of the 100th anniversary of the Giro will begin to build.
Any physical problems one has been having until now will have to be solved in the next 36 hours since the next stages are sure to reveal any weaknesses a rider has been hiding from the group.
Tuesday's Stage 10 is the first of the Grand Tour stages. At 160 miles with three huge climbs, it will test everyone's fitness and push all us to the limit for the first time in this year's Giro. Anyone who makes it through this stage with the leaders will stand a chance of winning the Giro.
Thursday's Stage 12 is the race against the clock, but once again organizers of the Giro have put a new twist on an old classic. At 36 miles with climbs and twisty descents, it will be an hour and half of pure suffering, and potentially a make-or-break stage for the overall contenders.
After Stage 12 the pressure will build on those who can win the Giro. Media, friends, family, and those who think they are friends will begin to swarm in, adding more stress and taking up more of the precious recovery time. Soon, it will get to the point where the only time you have to yourself will be when you are asleep in your bed.
So for all the fans watching the race, I know Monday may be a let down without your daily fix of racing. But don't worry, because come Tuesday the race is on.
Thanks for reading! Until tomorrow...

A three-judge panel has ordered the state Corrections Department to disclose to a prisoner its definition of "inclement weather." The Commonwealth Court panel overturned the department's rejection of a Right-to-Know request filed by Roger Buehl, an inmate the state prison in Smithfield.
State law requires most inmates to get two hours of outdoor exercise every day, weather permitting. Buehl contended that the prison routinely cancels outdoor exercise for overcast skies and other weather conditions that most people would not consider inclement.
The department said releasing its definition of inclement weather would compromise the security of guards and other prison personnel. In Tuesday's ruling, the court disagreed and said the public interest in the release of the information outweighs any security concerns.

"The vultures," said defensive tackle Kevin Frahm after Thursday's practice, "are starting to circle the carcass."
Forgive Riley if he doesn't take the 911 calls on the blogosphere seriously.
The Beavers are 0-2, not 0-12 – although Riley laughs and says, he's "heard the talk" that his team may not win a game.
"I don't react to too much of that," he said. "It's not that I don't pay attention, I just don't (read it).
"It (negativity) is probably swirling all around, but I'm somewhat – oblivious is not the right word – but it's not part of my day to day existence. I don't dwell on it or think about it."
Riley won't use injuries and Jacquizz Rodgers' decision to go pro as excuses for the Beavers' ineptitude, but he doesn't discount the impact of missing key players, especially flanker/kick returner James Rodgers.
Rodgers could be back for OSU's Sept. 24 Pac-12 opener against UCLA, the same day that tight end Joe Halahuni will make his return after spring shoulder surgery.
Will the reinforcements arrive in time to send the Fire Mike Riley zealots back to their basements?
Riley can't answer that question with 100 percent certainty, not after three bye-week practices.
"I just know everyone worked hard this week, and everyone had good intentions," he said.
"We are not discouraged. ... I'm disappointed in what's happened to our season at this point. I know people are genuinely worried, and I'm worried, too. I understand the overall concern, because we haven't looked good at all."
The question was raised this week in one newspaper about whether Riley has enough "energy" to coach yet another Oregon State team through a bad start and push, prod, and coax them back to a bowl game.
Riley wouldn't say it, but he's insulted by that.
"That is so far from the truth," he said. "I'm still energized not only by this team, but by the game. I probably watched more film this summer than I ever have in my life."
Riley has talked before about "fear of failure" being a source of movitation for coaches. He can sense when the heat's on.
"Frankly, when something happens in your life that you don't like, you get adrenaline. You're kind of energized by it," said Riley.
It's not that Riley doesn't have some small doubts about how 2011 is going to turn out. "This is a younger team than we've ever had," he said. "We're usually dealing with older guys who have been in the program longer who have also had experience with turnings things around.
"So there's a mystery that surrounds this thing. I can't even come close to predicting where we're going to go. But the thing I'm encouraged by, these guys are working. We gave them the day off Monday and 70 guys showed up to lift weights."
The vultures may be circling the carcass – waiting to pounce if the Beavers do a face plant against UCLA – but Riley is ignoring them.
He thinks it's crazy that anyone would look at the rest of OSU's schedule and say the remainder of the season is a lost cause.
"Like I said, I understand the worry. But it's way too early to predict too much," said Riley, who said games against No. 12 Oregon and No. 6 Stanford look imposing but, "the rest of us (in the conference) have got a long way to go and there's lots of games to play."
Oregon State fans might be less impatient over what's happening now if last year's team hadn't under-achieved and gone 5-7, missing a bowl game for the first time since 2005.
"Yes, I can understand that," said Riley.
No one wants to hear "wait until next year."
Riley said he's avoiding that, even if it's tempting.
Oregon State, on paper, could be very good in 2012, with most of its top players returning.
Young quarterback Sean Mannion – who has a chance to be a four-year starter – will be a year older.
And immediate help is on the way on the offensive line with incoming recruits like 6-foot-6, 290-pound Gavin Andrews, 6-4, 260-pound Chase Eldredge and 6-3, 280-pound Isaac Seumalo. Seumalo may have the best chance to make an instant impact.
"It's not a topic for right now, but at one time in the Wisconsin game, I looked out there and we had a freshman quarterback, two freshmen wideouts, a freshman tight end and two freshmen defensive ends," said Riley.
Again, said Riley, this current team has played just two games, "and the best way to build for next year is to do well this year."
He's reminded the players that the Beavers have rallied from slow starts in the past.
"But I also told the players there are no guarantees," Riley said. "The other teams that (turned it around) earned it. It wasn't easy."
In each case, there were points in the season where the "vultures" were circling.
"Being 0-and-2," said Frahm, "is totally unacceptable."

The Butzel Long report recommended EMU take several steps in improving its communication of public safety matters.
- Create a written Clery Act compliance procedure consisting of several elements, including adopting a timely warning system; establishing a compliance officer or committee; and assigning individuals specific roles and responsibilities in regards to information dissemination.
- Conduct a broad review of policies and procedures regarding the handling of administrative matters, especially as related to the issuance of public statements by the university, in order to reduce the number of situations in which decisions and judgments are made without guidance.
- Reorganize the administrative reporting structure to ensure the department of public safety reports to the vice president of business and finance.
- During the Virginia Tech shootings, which occurred during the inquiry, Butzel Long requested that the university's emergency response team meet immediately and assess emergency preparedness. The report says the university did so.
- Build on the university's recently established anonymous ethics and compliance reporting hotline to foster compliance at every level as a guiding principal of the university.

You can do just that with Orion and enjoy it, but you will be missing out on many of the superb facets of this advanced transceiver. I have said many times that the Orion is not for everyone. Buying one now means you do not have to go through the learning curve of many firmware releases us long time owners have had to endure...and learning new operating procedures with many of the releases. Buying one now means you get the best dam receiver available...if you will learn how to use it....and you get legendary TT service and support. Don't buy one and be happy with whatever you use, but don't complain when Orion users who have learned the radio hear signals you cannot hear and don't get nearly as tired in contests as you because they hear signals; not intermod, pops, thumps, splatter et all. My Orion is almost two years old now and I would not go back for anything. 73 bob de w9ge _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list firstname.lastname@example.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/tentec

LPL Hosts Arizona Meteorite Exhibition
On Saturday, January 30, 2010, LPL hosted the Arizona Meteorite Exhibition. This free public outreach event brought together meteorite hunters, collectors, and enthusiasts as part of an educational exhibition of the largest collection of Arizona meteorites ever gathered in one place. The goal was to exhibit at least one piece of every Arizona meteorite, with the help of statewide institutional partners and many private individuals. Among the items on display were specimens from the two observed and recovered Arizona meteorite falls: the Holbrook fall (1912)and the recent Whetstone Mountains fall (June 23, 2009).

POCAHONTAS - A retired sheriff who spent 29 years in law enforcement has returned to public service in a new capacity.
For nearly two months, Russ Jergens has served Pocahontas County as its new Emergency Management Agency coordinator.
Jergens decided that he wanted to return to public service after spending nine years away from law enforcement, from which he retired as Palo Alto County sheriff.

Russ Jergens, Pocahontas County Emergency Management Agency coordinator, examines two new maps of the county in his office at the Pocahontas County Courthouse.
"I missed helping people and working with the public," Jergens said.
Some of his prior experience made him interested in being EMA coordinator.
"I was chairman of the 911 board (in Palo Alto County) and the emergency management chairman," he said. "I had knowledge of that and an interest in it. When the position became available here, I was approached by a couple of mayors asking me if I was interested, and here I am."
Since starting on May 3, Jergens said he's been kept busy, especially with the stormy weather Pocahontas County experienced almost two weeks ago.
"With all the foul weather we've had, I've been entering reports and forms for the state and federal government for the local flooding," Jergens said. "I've been taking damage reports and doing telephone conferences."
"Any man-made or natural-made disaster, I am the reporting contact for the state and federal government," he added.
Other responsibilities include being the director of the 911 commission.
"I oversee the responsibilities for the 911 system as well as its updates and continuing work," he said. "They also gave me the responsibility of being the safety director for the county. I oversee the safety practices of county employees."
With the flooding and storms, Jergens said his job has been "hectic."
"Early on we were able to get the governor's proclamation for our county," he said. "That's good for our county, because it enables resources to be made available through the state as far as reimbursements and programs for people to help with damages to private property."
Though it's been hectic, Jergens said he's been enjoying the past 60 days on the job.
He credits the two prior emergency management coordinators for making the transition smooth.
"They had a lot of things in place and a lot of things going," he said. "There's some loose ends I look forward to getting tied up and some compliance issues submitted to the state. I'm fortunate to have a supportive commission to work with me and encourage me."
He added that he's already making plans for the county.
"We recently secured funding for AEDs to put in city halls throughout the county," he said. "We're also working on some projects that will hopefully be realized within the next year or so."
An AED is an automatic external defibrillator.
Jergens is looking forward to his tenure with emergency management.
"It's good to be back serving the public," he said. "I'm looking forward to helping the communities have a better response with their emergency services."

I have been trying to think of things more stressful than watching my country approach the brink of economic chaos while its elected leaders preen and posture for the cameras.
From personal experience, a handful of contenders comes to mind:
A colonoscopy. I had my first one of these a few weeks ago. While it wasn't as bad as I'd imagined, there is an indisputable indignity in seeing a doctor standing over your rear end, periscope in hand, as you drift into a drug-induced twilight.
A hurricane. Even if you don't lose your life or your home, hurricanes up-end everything. The sound of chain saws, the lack of electricity, and the raw human misery are your daily companions for weeks, maybe months.
An IRS audit. No matter what your friendly auditor tells you, trust me: You're guilty until proven innocent. And even if you win, you lose: Neither lawyers nor CPAs work for free.
Facial waxing. Maybe you wouldn't mind somebody painting your face with blazing hot wax and then ripping the cooled wax off in strips. Maybe in another life, you wouldn't have minded the Inquisition, either.
Flying commercially. You're in the middle seat on a crowded plane with a fat guy on one side and, on the other, a woman who hasn't bathed recently — and neither will share the arm rest. All that's missing is a howling infant.
Driving across Texas. In August. With a broken air conditioner.
Reality shows. If there is a purgatory, it may consist of being forced to watch an endless loop of reality shows about people you don't know and don't want to know.
Or, to achieve a similar feeling of despair, we could all watch footage of John Boehner and Harry Reid playing chicken with the debt ceiling, leaving us to fret about what may happen to interest rates, the economy, our jobs and our families.
We could marvel at the fact that neither side seems to fear the consequences of its behavior — not from the stock market, not from other countries and, in particular, not from the voters. And we could plot our revenge against the politicians who've put us through this.
Here's a delicious, if impractical, thought. What if — in an act more powerful than a hurricane, more frightening that an IRS audit and more tortuous than a reality show — in November 2012 we could un-elect every member of Congress and the third of the senators who are up for re-election, plus the president and the vice president?
What if, for good measure, we also refused to replace them with anybody who has served in any political office anywhere in the country?
Goodbye, Barack and Joe. So long, John. Adios, Mitt. Beat it, Michele.
Scram, Sarah, Rick and anybody named Clinton.
Individually, you've done some good things in your careers. I've voted for a few of you. As a group, however, you've betrayed all of us. You don't care about our puny concerns, and it shows.
Would voters have the discipline to carry out such a comprehensive house-cleaning? I doubt it. And would it be wise to replace nearly all of the experienced politicians in D.C. with rank novices? Not necessarily.
Considering that their behavior these days makes a colonoscopy sound almost fun, however, I figure a citizen can always dream.

We were going to climb at Beacon Rock, as two parties of two and then Tim announced that he forgot his climbing shoes. The first time in 30 years. Now the strongest climber was bumped down to the weakest in our party (his words not mine). Tim is a 5.12 crack climber and is a really serious climber and mountaineer. I was going to be climbing with him. Now we needed to come up with another plan.
We decided that we would have Studly lead Young Warriors, then belay The Fuzzy up, then Tim and I would follow on the same rope. I would tie into the middle of my 70 meter rope with a butterfly knot and then Tim would tie into the end. I would make it to the belay anchor before Tim started climbing and then I would belay him while The Fuzzy belayed Studly on the next pitch.
Studly started out and immediately found the climbing to be really slippery. We yelled up put in more gear. Beacon Rock had not dried out from the last rain storm. He got to the belay anchor at the top of the first pitch and decided that Young Warriors was too wet to continue climbing. Thanks Studly for the up close and personal assessment of the condition of the rock while lead climbing. Nicely done dude!
So the plan changed again. The Fuzzy would follow Steve and clean the gear and then they would rappel off. Tim and I wanted to check out Windsurfer a crack climb that goes at 5.10b. This route is a Beacon Rock classic. It is one of the routes I used to teach myself to solo aid climb. I have aided it three times and top roped it once. I had hoped to lead climb it free by the end of this season.
Tim and I looked at the crack and it was dry and in the sun. Tim volunteered to lead it in his tennis shoes. He set up an alpine aider with two 24 inch slings girthed together, and one single one on a carabiner. This was so the if he needed to aid climb he could.
He grabbed the rack and started off. I belayed him in awe as he made almost all of the moves free. Every once in a while he would ask for tension on the rope as he placed a piece of gear. He apologized for taking so long. I told him he was doing great. I am not sure I could have led it any faster and this guy was doing the climb in his tennis shoes! Stemming, jamming his feet in the crack and just floating up the route. Meanwhile Studly and The Fuzzy showed up and announced that they were going to climb the Southeast Corner route and made their way back down the trail.
He got to the top and finished that section totally free. Now it was my turn. He pulled up the slack as I tied into the rope. I was now on belay and I started up. Jamming my hands and feet in the crack. At times there were perfect fist jams and others perfect slots for open hand jams. I found good back steps and stem moves to rest as I moved up and cleaned the gear Tim placed.
I got most of the moves clean with out hanging on the rope. I fell off twice and managed to pull up on top of the pillar after climbing up for 120 feet. This climb is intense and sustained. I love this kind of climbing. It is strenuous and demands stamina, endurance, and patience.
I say patience because you have to rest to allow yourself to breath and work your feet up and not flail. If you flail you fail. When panic or frustration take over your not climbing anymore. At least your not moving up. Up is the goal and it takes working at staying calm.
Standing on top of the pillar I congratulated Tim on a nice lead and he gave me a fist bump for my effort following him up and cleaning the gear. It was a great day. Now I am at 54 climbs out 100. Today was not about the numbers it was just good climbing with great people.
Now on to the Next Adventure!

Territory managers can be found in a significant numbers of businesses and industries. They typically are tasked with maintaining and increasing a company's sales performance in a specific geographic area. In general, the territory manager's primary focus is on building and maintaining a customer base, thereby increasing sales. Retail territory managers generally oversee a geographic area as well and make regular contact with division, district, area managers, and, on rare occasions, store managers.Read More...
Non-retail territory managers' primary duty is to maintain customer relationships. In most cases, meeting with clients is crucial so that territory managers can hear and address any concerns they may have with a company's products or services provided. In many situations, the territory manager is the "face" of the company in the eyes of the clients. This makes communication skills and the ability to build a rapport with clients an essential trait for territory managers.
While the territory manager usually has an office in their company's headquarters, given the need for regular contact with clients and prospective clients, they spend a significant amount of time traveling to and from various different locations within their assigned territory.
Educational requirements may vary. Some territory managers start in a low-level position in their companies and reach the territory manager position through promotions. While a degree is not required, many territory managers have an associate's or bachelor's degree in sales, marketing, or a related field. The territory manager is often expected to continue pursuing education through continuing classes, seminars, and training events.

Slow down and be patient
I was in the Woodinville Payless Tuesday 11/25 (at night), in the Pharmacy. It was very, very busy and the employees were doing the best job possible. We were all waiting for our prescriptions and most of the people waiting were extremely rude to each other and the employees. I was with my two small children and found myself explaining to them how everyone's in a rush and no one has patience anymore, and that's wrong! I thought the saying was, "Patience is a virtue.," not to be rude and things go quicker. What's the world coming to? Everyone always seems to be in a hurry, to go where? Either we have someone tailgating or someone pushing through in the grocery store. We all need to slow down and take a moment to smile at one another and realize that life has a lot of beauty to offer. It only takes a minute to smile or help someone and treat people with kindness.
I'd like to commend the workers at Payless, they take so much abuse, yet they're always very polite to everyone. It hurts my heart to think these workers go home and cry or don't get to enjoy their families because someone ruined their day. Enclosed is a poem I wrote and hope it's printed. Maybe if everyone reads it, they may stop and think before snapping off to another human being. We all have a heart and all feel pain. P.S.. I feel one person can make a difference!
Thank you,
Julie Dougherty

BATON ROUGE -- A rate decrease for residents of coastal parishes who use the state-run property insurer of last resort will not be retroactively applied to a full year's worth of premiums, the insurer's board decided Thursday.
The decrease, which will save customers more than $16 million a year, was codified by a bill passed in the last days of this year's legislative session that renewed a 12-parish exemption from the 10 percent mark-up Citizens Property Insurance Corp. is required to add to its policies to keep it from competing with private firms. The insurer is charged with providing property insurance to those who have difficulty finding coverage from private companies.
The rate decrease was authorized in Senate Bill 204 by Sen. Dan Morrish, R-Jennings, after the insurer released new rates that resulted in double- or triple-digit increases for some customers. It reinstates an exemption from the additional charge that was put in place after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita for residents of Orleans, Jefferson, St. Tammany, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Mary, Calcasieu, Cameron, Vermilion, Iberia, Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes to help with rebuilding efforts. That exemption expired last year but Morrish's bill grants residents of those parishes a reprieve from the surcharge until 2015.
The key debate Thursday was whether the bill should apply retroactively to Jan. 1, when Citizens began once again charging the mark-up in those parishes, or whether it should only go back to June 7, when Gov. Bobby Jindal signed Morrish's bill into law.
While Morrish, who is also a member of Citizens' board, argued the bill was intended as an extension of the original exemption and should result in refunds that cover the full year, the board voted 4-3 to limit the reimbursements to the date the bill was signed. That decision was based, in part, on a memo drafted by Emile Rolfs, an attorney at Breazeale, Sachse and Wilson, that the law as it was written did not apply retroactively. Citizens contracted with the firm to determine how the new law would affect the insurer.
While Morrish argued that was not the intent of those passing the bill, state Insurance Commissioner James Donelon said that Citizens would have to follow the actual wording of the law and not the intent of those who passed it.
"Legislative intent isn't a bill of the Legislature, " Donelon said.
The law eliminating the mark-up in coastal parishes was prompted by increases to the overall rates charged to Citizens' customers that went into effect on June 1, Morrish said. Without some relief for those using the program, he said he feared a legislative backlash against the insurer next year.
"It became obvious to me that if we didn't do something legislatively, there would have been an all-out assault on Citizens in the next legislative session, " Morrish said.
The overall rate change resulted in premiums increasing by an average of 10.5 percent. But those customers who receive only wind-and-hail coverage from Citizens saw a significantly larger increase, with some seeing their rates go up by as much as 200 percent. Across the board, those customers saw an average increase of about 58 percent.
The debate also pitted Donelon against state Treasurer John Kennedy. While Kennedy, who called for Thursday's special meeting to discuss the impact of the legislation, argued that the bill should result in reimbursements for the whole year, Donelon said such a move would be akin to giving away state assets. Kennedy countered that previous laws, such as one that rolled back driver's license fees, had resulted in refunds for residents who had paid higher rates without it becoming a legal issue.
Those insured by Citizens likely won't see their bills adjusted until November as the insurer works to implement the changes. Those who have paid in a lump sum will receive a check reimbursing them for the decrease and those who are paying in installments will be given a credit on their account.

Go-To Law Firms of the World's Leading Companies
Corporate Counsel magazine named McAfee & Taft to its 2014 list of "Go-To Law Firms of the World's Leading Companies," the seventh consecutive year that McAfee & Taft has been recognized. Only 322 law firms in the country were selected this year.
In its annual survey of the general counsel at each of the 500 largest companies in the United States, ALM asked the nation's top companies who they turn to first to handle their most significant legal matters in the areas of corporate transactions, intellectual property, labor and employment, litigation, and European Union matters. Their responses form the basis for ALM's definitive list of "Go-To Law Firms of the World's Leading Companies," published in the 11th annual edition of In-House Law Departments of the Top 500 Companies, distributed to more than 20,000 senior in-house counsel, including the FORTUNE 1,000 general counsel and subscribers of Corporate Counsel magazine.
This year, sixteen Fortune 500 companies singled out McAfee & Taft as a "go-to" firm for legal work, including General Motors (#7), Ford Motor Company (#10), State Farm Insurance Cos. (#44), Pfizer (#48), Best Buy (#61), Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold (#156), Paccar (#168), Chesapeake Energy (#223), Hertz Global Holdings (#293), DTE Energy (#299), DaVita HealthCare Partners (#311), Republic Services (#323), Quest Diagnostics (#341), Boston Scientific (#357), Health Management Associates (#376) and Mattel (#395).

There's no getting around it, I know. Not with the many tiers of playoffs, not with the TV people dictating policy, not with so many cold-weather cities in the big leagues, not with Mother Nature forever remaining unbeaten and untied.
But it's still a shame that the premier event of baseball, the summer game, is so often played in awful conditions. Cold . . . rain . . . wind . . . sleet . . . snow flurries. The World Series has seen it all, and Saturday and Sunday were no different as the Chicago White Sox and Houston Astros played on miserable 40ish-degree nights at U.S. Cellular Field.
Frankly, it was amazing that the two clubs put on such good shows in this competition that has produced a two-run game and a one-run game. I'd believed before this Series began that it would be possible for either the Sox or the 'Stros to sweep, but that the game-to-game drama would still be high. And I still think that way. I just don't see either club blowing away the other over any particular stretch of nine innings. Not with those pitching staffs. Not with those creative offenses.
But I digress. The subject is the weather and how bad it can get for baseball at this time of the year. And why wouldn't it? If this Series goes seven games, the seventh game will be played on Oct. 30. At night. In Chicago. Hard by the shores of Lake Michigan. What? It's supposed to be balmy at that time on that date in that town?
Not so long ago, after a particularly bad stretch of World Series weather, there was a small movement afoot to place all future World Series -- the entire seven-game shebangs -- in warm, neutral sites. San Diego. Los Angeles. Anaheim. Phoenix. Dallas. Miami. Tampa. Atlanta. Places like that.
The idea was to rotate the towns and, like the Super Bowl, anoint them as the various sites of one-week baseball blowouts with the requisite entertainment and fanfare.
Well, it was an idea. And on some levels, it was an intriguing one. I mean, the New England Patriots seem to have survived without ever having won a Super Bowl game on site in Foxboro, right? But then, the back-and-forth between the ball parks is one of the endearing things about the World Series and I don't believe that will ever be compromised.
Whatever, the great good news about this Astros-White Sox deal is that it's now moving down to Houston where the weather will be far more conducive to baseball -- and that's whether the roof at Minute Maid Park is closed or not, pending Bud Selig's decree.
But you get the drift. One way or the other it'll be baseball Tuesday, Wednesday and, possibly, Thursday. Just baseball. If the Houston ballclub forces the issue, though, and pushes the Series back to Chicago for the weekend, Mother Nature -- likely, riled up -- will be waiting.

Long before the city's popular Portland Timbers soccer team, a previous Timbers team thrilled fans in its first season in 1975. At 7 p.m. Friday, May 4, at the Tigard Public Library, author Michael Orr will recount that rousing year.
Orr's recent book, "The 1975 Portland Timbers: The Birth of Soccer City, USA," is the story of 17 players and two coaches who came from different clubs and different countries to form a team just days before its first game.
He weaves together player interviews, news coverage and game statistics to chronicle the Timbers' single-season journey from expansion team to championship contender.
During that exciting season, the Timbers won the hearts of Portlanders in just four months.
From the team's first televised game against Pelé's New York Cosmos to its seven-game winning streak, it vied for a league record and the postseason battle for the championship.
Orr is managing writer and editor at FC Media, LLC, in Portland and is a freelance soccer writer and podcast host. With a shared love of history and soccer he has written articles for the Blizzard, the Oregon Historical Quarterly and numerous blogs.
The author will have his book for sale and signing after his presentation. The free program will be held in the George and Yvonne Burgess Community Room.

Oatmeal Raisin Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have been eating a lot of oatmeal with apples and raisins for breakfast in the mornings and as a result, I've been craving oatmeal raisin cookies. I haven't made these in years, and to be quite honest, the last couple of times that I made them they didn't turn out all that great. I was looking forward to trying a new recipe and these definitely lived up to my expectations! They were crisp on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside – the perfect oatmeal cookie.
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
(Source: Deborah's Culinary Confections, courtesy of Annie's Eats)
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (omitted)
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (omitted)
3 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup raisins
1 cup walnuts (I substituted dark chocolate chips)
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugars, eggs and vanilla extract until well blended. In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture, stirring just until combined.
3. Fold in rolled oats, raisins, and walnuts (in this case, chocolate chips). Drop dough by rounded teaspoons (I used a cookie scoop) about 2 inches apart onto a cookie sheet.
4. Bake for 8 – 10 minutes (mine took 12 minutes) or until edges are lightly browned. Cool 2 minutes and remove to wire rack to cool completely.
Yield: A little over 4 dozen cookies.

Hi Michelle, I made these cookies last night – they are really good. I didn't have any walnuts so I put in pecans. I did put in the cinnamon and nutmeg. I make big cookies so I didn't get 4 dozen – I guess it means less trips to the cookie jar These are a keeper. Thanks. (Everything I have made from your site is really good).

These are the best CHEWY oatmeal chocolate chip raisin cookies EVER! It is my favorite combination and I'm usually a little disappointed. My expectations have not been met before. WOW! I followed the recipe to a tee and it was perfect. I'd never realized that even a tiny bit of cinnamon alters the flavor.
Thanks so much!
(I made 45 cookies)
I'm so glad I found this recipe last summer! I love oatmeal, raisin, and chocolate chip cookies without cinnamon, but it is really hard to find a nice, chewy one! I had been wanting to try out a recipe for increasing milk supply for nursing moms since a couple of my friends were having babies, but they all sounded, well, not the tastiest. So I decided to modify your recipe a little bit to meet the needs of a nursing cookie–I cut out 1/4 cup of the flour and added 1/4 of ground flax, plus 2 Tbsp brewer's yeast. I also substituted 1/4 cup extra virgin coconut oil for 1/4 of the butter to make them *a little* healthier (more than that made the cookies too thin), and 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut for 1 cup oats. They might not be as healthy as most nursing cookies, but at least they taste better so one can enjoy eating them lol! Everyone I've made them for loves them and they are now my go-to food I bring to new moms 🙂 thanks again for sharing a great recipe!

I've been making these for years and never made a comment…….tonight when looking it up on my "saved" recipes wanted to tell everyone how easy these are to make and how absolutely WONDERFUL they taste. If I take them to a function, I never bring any home. When I pass them out to neighbors/friends, I get major compliments.
It's just a great recipe.

i-Flow T2270
Attractive challenge
The i-Flow is a Virtual Reality trainer for riders who want to be entertained while cycling. Thanks to its excellent value for money the i-Flow makes training in Tacx's virtual worlds accessible to everyone. This popular trainer with ergonomically shaped frame slightly rebounds while cycling. It is operated through the handlebar interface. The i-Flow includes the Tacx Trainer software 4, Basic with the possibility to upgrade.
The electro magnetic brake is less powerful than the motor brake – the wheel is not being driven – but it does guarantee a very realistic cycling experience. You can really feel the rolling, air and incline resistances which you encounter while cycling, you immediately notice whether you are riding on a paved road, a wood path, through the sand or on the grass. The braking system consists of 6 permanent-magnets, 6 controllable electro magnets and a 2 kg flywheel. The maximum resistance is 800 Watt.
Option: the manoeuvrable VR steering frame, enabling you to go wherever you want to go in the virtual worlds.
Virtual Reality trainer
Training with PC
- Interface on handlebar
- Tacx Trainer software 4, Basic
- Incl. Skyliner front wheel support; VR steering frame optional
Electro brake
- 6 permanent-magnets & 6 controllable electro magnets
- 2 kg flywheel
- Max. resistance 800 Watt; adjustable in percent
Electro brake
The i-Flow works with an electro brake. By placing magnets and electro magnets beside a rotating aluminium disc, eddy currents are created which generate an opposing magnetic field. In this way a non-contact, maintenance-free brake is realized that is also silent. Thanks to the electro brake a resistance can be set that you also experience on the road or in a climb.
Virtual speed
The electro brake does not have a downhill drive, such as the motor brake of the i-Genius, and it generates less power while riding uphill. When you are cycling in a virtual terrain or in a film you can get outside the range for which the brake is intended. In the second graph the working range of the i-Flow is shown. To allow cyclists with a motor brake and cyclists with an electro brake to ride races against each other in Multiplayer, Tacx has developed the virtual speed. This concept translatesthe energy supplied into a certain speed, which can guarantee a fair contest. If this speed differs from the speed at which the rear wheel is running, the virtual speed will be shown on the screen in red.
Basic software
This is a slightly simplified version of the software without some advanced features. But still there is more than enough to train in a scientific way and enjoy cycling in the virtual worlds that are so lifelike that they cannot be told apart anymore from the real world.
The Basic software is an excellent starter and makes entertainment accessible to everyone. Contains two beautifully designed Virtual Reality terrains: the Valeggio road terrain in Italy and the Velodrome. Also there is the possibility of cycling in Tacx films. This makes the trainings sessions enjoyable and adventurous. With GPS outdoor training rides can be completely relived at home. With Catalyst you can train on heart rate, power output and slope.
With Multiplayer you can compete online against real opponents. This requires a license. With the Basic software and a Multiplayer license you can ride in the VR against up to ten real opponents.

Snakes "long and short, smooth and scaly, dull and colorful, harmless "and deadly. Don't worry, this is not going to be a scary snake story. Americans have an ambivalent attitude toward snakes. On the one hand, our popular culture loves them; our classic cars are the Shelby Cobra and the Dodge Viper. The Air Force calls its air-to-air missiles "Sidewiders. On the other hand, few animals are more feared by the average person. Whether in movies, literature, or folklore, poisonous serpents have received bad press, which is unfortunate, because snakes like copperheads and cobras are at this moment at the forefront of some of the most exciting medical breakthroughs.
I am going to tell you today about the nature of snake venom and why it can be used in medicine. Next, we will explore some of the breakthroughs it is already used for, and finally we will discover the new applications that lie just over the medical horizon. Whether for heart attacks, organ rejection, blood pressure, strokes or many other health conditions, snake venom holds great promise for both patients and the general public alike.
Before getting to the promised land, however, we have first to find out what snake venom is, and why doctors can use it. Arizona State U's Chain Reaction online Magazine, last referenced December 12 2002, reports the studies of Dr. Allan Bieber regarding the composition of this deadly fluid. Dr. Beiber says that most snake venom is some form of protein. Now, protein is one of the body's basic building blocks "antibodies, hormones, enzymes, hair and muscles are all forms of proteins.
Snake venom, however, is a deadly mix of particularly powerful proteins, grouped into neurotoxins and hemotoxins, which set off destructive chain reactions when injected into the human body. In "Cold Blooded News from March 2001, Ed Ferrer of the Colorado Herpetological Society explains the difference between the two. Neurotoxi

The green beans were delicious, as were the collards. Radishes and spinach will go in tonight's salad.
We have many tomatoes - but they are still very green. It's already getting hot here, so I'm worried about whether the blooms will continue to set very well. (I admit I bought some bloom set spray. I'm not sure if that works, but I REALLY want tomatoes!)
I found some more blooms on the strawberries, too, so we might have another small helping of those soon.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to Vanillalotus at New Sprout for solving my mysteries from the last post. She tells me:
The lily is called a Jacobean Lily, or Aztec Lily. It's latin name is Sprekelia formosissima. Here is a website with more information at Daves Garden.
The cool-looking moth is a giant/great leopard moth.
What a wonderful thing - to have you gardening friends as a resource for tips and troubles and to indentify those mysteries that pop up in our gardens periodically.
Thanks for all your ideas and help!

Grandpa's Sauerkraut and Kielbasa
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 3 hrs
I grew up asking for sauerkraut instead of candy as a child, and my grandfather always made it for me. This is my version of what he would make.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cup butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced (four if you are a garlic lover)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon thyme leaves
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground sage
- ground black pepper, to taste
- 3 potatoes, peeled and diced (try to use a waxy potato like Yukon gold (russets will disintegrate in the baking process)
- 1 (16 ounce) bag sauerkraut, from the deli aisle (not canned please)
- 1 lb beef kielbasa, cut into 1/2 inch pieces (two if you're an insane sausage lover)
- Put the cold butter in a cold pan with the diced onion, and slowly bring to a simmer on medium heat.
- This brings out the sweetness of the onions.
- Simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and simmer 2 more minutes.
- Add next 3 ingredients.
- Combine with the sauerkraut (undrained and not rinsed), kielbasa and potatoes.
- Bring to a simmer on the stove top.
- Cover loosely with foil and place in a preheated 225°F oven for 3 hours.
Most Helpful
Bless yer Grandpa's memory! This is just a savory delight! I gilded the lily by sauteing the onion and garlic with very lean chopped bacon (about 6 oz.), using Bell's Seasoning for the thyme and sage, adding a half cup of white wine, and tossing in a diced apple (apples, onions, garlic, and potatoes all home-grown)...
This is an outrageously good recipe - thank you, thank you, thank you!
My husband loves kielbasa-I on the other hand do not care much for it...I tried this recipe for him and not only did he rave about it so did I. It was very easy to prepare and I love that I could put it together and throw it in the oven and go for swim and so on while our dinner was cooking.
I've used this recipe several times and love it. I don't add the potatoes though since I make this with potato pancackes. This is now my go to kielbasa recipe.

When you begin a weight loss program your tendency may be to get on the scale often to see how youre progressing. This can be tragic to your weight loss psyche. The body can, and will, fluctuate in weight during a day- as many as 3-5 pounds! The factors for this fluctuation are what goes in and out of your body. Food and water plus bladder and bowel movements as well as perspiration will make an enormous difference in your weight per-day.
The best way to ensure that you are getting an accurate weight measurement is: First, get yourself a scale that only you use. Many people tend to use the scale in the gym. Most scales work on a spring system. Every time a person steps on that scale the springs get a little more wear and this will change its accuracy. The locker room scale is rarely accurate. Your scale at home could weigh you at 150 but the scale at the gym could fluctuate significantly in any direction. Don't forget, hundreds of people use that scale a week. Use your scale and your scale only. Most importantly, don't switch from scale to scale! Pick one and stick with it.
Second, pick one day a week to weigh yourself. On that day you wake up, go to the bathroom, and then weigh yourself. With your bladder and bowels (if you can) empty, and no food or water in your system, this is the ideal time to obtain your most accurate weight.
Now is the time for some control and patience. Use that weight for the rest of the week as what you weigh and DO NOT step on the scale again until the same time next week.
If you are eating right and exercising correctly, you will see a change in weight that you can "bank on" is accurate.
Use fatburn.com to track your weight loss. It's easy, just register, follow fatburn.com's daily routine and watch the pounds fall off.

Don't close senior center in downtown
To the Editor:
In the name of progress, closing the Ida Benderson Center will hurt up to 80 or more seniors and veterans. Now they will have to travel to the Salvation Army. Why?
This center has been in Syracuse for many years, long before some of the loft apartment tenants were born. Mayor Miner and common councilors — please keep Ida Benderson open. What's next — closing downtown? The Tuesday market?
If you want center to stay open, please call the mayor or your councilor. There is a meeting scheduled for Sept. 6 at 11 a.m. in City Hall council chambers. Seniors — stick up for your rights!

Lawsuit off base; so is Dan Maffei
To the Editor:
Some thoughts on two news items featured this week:
A $1.5 million lawsuit for police abuse? Please. You didn't report any injury. I can't tell if it's your knee or head making the impact noise on the video, and I think you are probably lucky that's all that happened to you. The lawsuit should be thrown out.
Former Congressman Dan Maffei — you still don't get it. You didn't follow what your constituents wanted you to do on health care. No, you sided with your tax-and-spend party first. You were arrogant then, and your announcement of wanting your seat back shows no contrition.
Your party had control of the Senate and House and didn't even propose a budget for over 800 days. You are out, and the do-nothings from both parties will be gone in the near future. So will the president. He has the same disposition as you — arrogance.
Earle Ireland
Avoid generalizing about senior abilities
To the Editor:
The front-page column carried the headline: "Good financial judgment
declines with age."
This is like saying all members of Congress are incompetent politicians who care about nothing but getting re-elected. This is not true.
It may be that seniors who suffer from some form of cognitive impairment will be more susceptible to fraud and scams. And some have never had good financial judgment.
In future, I urge you to avoid these generalities, as they may give the wrong message and do not apply to all.

Don't bring the war home to this region
To the Editor:
Central New Yorkers should consider carefully the desire of the military to fly drones (unmanned military aircraft) in civilian airspace in Central New York.
If the United States is to have military hardware, it is essential that it be tested thoroughly. However, flying military aircraft through civilian airspace puts our security and safety in jeopardy.
There are already incidents of drones colliding with manned military aircraft. We do not want that to happen at Hancock field, where drones are dispatched for bombing and strafing in Afghanistan. Step by step, war is being brought home to Syracuse.

Obama's rhetoric alone won't save him
To the Editor:
President Barack Obama dismisses any criticism leveled at him or his administration. Like many of his supporters, he may discount it as grounded in racism.
What rhetoric, no matter the delivery, will convince the majority of America's melting pot to re-elect him? Those who are confused about what Obama's core convictions are need only read his books, "Dreams from My Father" and "The Audacity of Hope."

Granted, the Christmas tree may be dying by now and presents already have been exchanged, but I'm still in the mood for a classic holiday tale, as old as time:
Twas two days after Christmas, and all through D-town,E-mail Michael Zuidema: email@example.com
it was the same old, same old from the same bunch of clowns.
The Lions couldn't do a single thing right,
Unless they like to frustrate fans every night.
And it's not like people can fall back on the Wings,
since players keep hurting a variety of things.
And the Pistons don't seem to have much get up and go,
maybe because Ben Wallace lost that awesome afro.
And then there's that Tigers' season-ending choke,
as if Jim Leyland needed another reason to smoke.
But it's the Lions who continue to act like Scrooges,
since their play on the field resembles the Three Stooges.
You could almost hear the desperation from Coach Schwartz,
"Come on, play like men; don't you have any hearts?"
But that's when he realized he was starting Drew Stanton,
who may be a nice kid, but isn't headed for Canton.
If only the fans could be spared from a rout,
with the promise of yet another TV blackout.
