Greyhounds sophomore quarterback J.T. Thompson has rushed for 227 yards and four touchdowns this season as a backup to senior starter Michael Benton
By Dave Wagner: CNJ sports writer
Mark Ribaudo expected Eastern New Mexico University's secondary to be challenged last week by Northeastern State's air attack.
The Greyhounds passed that test, winning 14-10, but now may face a bigger challenge against East Central in a 6 p.m. Lone Star Conference crossover game today at Blackwater Draw.
Sophomore quarterback Marcus Johnson has thrown for 619 yards and seven touchdowns through three games for the Tigers (1-2), who beat Angelo State soundly last week after road losses to nationally-ranked Pittsburg State and Tarleton State.
Ribaudo said the Tigers have made strides under second-year coach Kurt Nichols, although it hasn't shown up yet in their record. East Central was just 2-8 last season.
"You can see how Kurt's starting to get his program to where he wants it," Ribaudo said. "He's improved the talent level there."
Meantime, the Hounds are looking for their first 3-0 start since 2003. Ribaudo said he was generally satisfied with last week's performance on both sides of the ball.
"I was really pleased with the pass coverage, and with the defense in general," he said. "On offense, even though we didn't generate many points, we were extremely physical.
"This was our first taste of a good LSC defense. I think there's a lot we can build on from that game."
Senior fullback J.J. Jennings believes the Hounds will gradually become more efficient on offense.
"I feel like we're going to have a better game than last week on offense," Jennings said. "We've been working extremely hard in practice, and I think we're fixing the mistakes from last week."
Ribaudo's main area of concern was on special teams, but he's confident things will get better in that area. ENMU missed three field goals against the RiverHawks, including one which was blocked, and also muffed a punt.
"We put a lot of time into specials," he said, "so I think, barring anything unforeseen, we'll be all right."
Johnson, who is capable of taking off and running, completed 26-of-34 passes spread among 11 receivers against Angelo. He set school single-game records with 386 passing yards and six TD tosses.
On the other hand, the Hounds hope to take advantage of a Tigers defense which surrendered 567 yards to Angelo, although it held the Rams to three first-half points.
"They have some pretty good defensive linemen," Jennings said of the Tigers. "Overall, they're pretty quick.
"We just want to come out and be aggressive."

The Swedish mountains provide the backdrop to the city of Östersund that lies on the eastern shore of Storsjön lake ('the Big Lake'). And yes, the locals will tell you tales of the monster in the lake.
Östersund's real claim to fame however is that it is a regular venue for the biathlon World Cup, hosting the IBU World Biathlon Championships in 2008 that put this small, action-packed city deservedly on the world map. Östersund is the only city in the northerly county of Jämtland and top class ski resorts are within a couple of hours' drive.
Östersund is known as 'the Winter City' because it caters for just about any activity on snow or ice. Downhill and cross-country skiing, trip skating, ice-fishing, horse and dog sleds, snowmobile safaris and many other winter sports activities are all on offer in and around the city. In fact they are a way of life of here.
The spectacular 'Medvinden' is a 50-km long, long-distance skating track out on Storsjön that is ploughed and preened daily for your enjoyment. If you don't bring your own skates you can rent a pair at the Winter Park – a lakeshore winter paradise, especially for the kids, with ice castles, ice sculptures, a huge skating rink, restaurants, cafes and deck chairs to lounge in when the heat of the sun returns in springtime. The activity arena, events, shopping etc are within comfortable walking distance and there is accommodation across all prices classes. Don't miss out on the local restaurants and eateries' specialties, particularly the moose and salmon.
The airport is just 15 minutes from the city centre.

Teenagers and young adults, who traveled to Poland and Slovakia for World Youth Day and the Jasna Youth School, spent time praying, praising God, and immersing themselves in a crowd of their peers. This experience was a true pilgrimage experience in the sense that many such sacrifices were made, from walking for hours, to spending a day or night completely drenched from pouring rain; from waiting for hours for a bus that never came, to taking cold showers, etc… But these experiences created solidarity and a supernatural atmosphere among the Midwest Focolare youth.[more]
Members of the Focolare movement in the Chicago area participated in the liturgy and reception on the Greek Orthodox feast of the Great Vespers for the Feast of the Induction and the Protection of the Environment. The celebration was held for the Chicago area at the Church of Sts. Peter and Paul in Glenview. Sts. Peter and Paul is a very beautiful, colorful, icon-filled, bright and welcoming structure and was a perfect setting for such a majestic ceremony. The ceremony manifested the majesty of God, as shared by the Focolare members in attendance.[more]

The Farmers' Almanac is predicting that Michigan will be a snowy, winter wonderland this year, and we can't wait to show everyone how much fun a Pure Michigan winter is. Michigan is home to more than 4,000 miles of snowmobile trails, 3,000 miles of cross country ski trails, beautiful terrain for snowshoeing and much more. We are the birthplace of snowboarding and organized skiing, ranking second in the nation for number of ski areas.
Today, we launched the Pure Michigan winter video series to showcase the variety of attractions and activities that make the winter months a great time to visit. From sweeping views of Michigan's sparkling winter landscape to extreme sports in motion, the series will feature a total of 13 videos released over the course of the next two months.
Whether you are an outdoor enthusiast, a thrill seeker, looking for a family getaway or anywhere in between, check out the adventures a Michigan winter has to offer in our new Michigan winter adventure video series.
To help kick off our series, we asked Dave Lorenz, Manager of Public and Industry Relations for Travel Michigan and our go-to guy for Michigan destinations, to explain what he loves about the winter months in our state.
One of the great things about Michigan, as a travel destination and as a place to live, is that we get to enjoy four very distinctly different seasons. Sometimes it seems, all on the same day. Most people think of Michigan as the place to experience "America's perfect summer". For me, the best time to enjoy the splendor of this beautiful place is during the winter months.
When I admit this to others, most people start to cringe just a bit. But, it's true. I'm that guy who can't wait to pull out the snow shovel, stack the wood-pile high and unpack the ski gear. For me, winter in Michigan is a magical time, especially if you get out there and enjoy it. Here's a short list of some of my favorite winter-time activities. If you haven't tried them before, give them a try. You'll be glad you did.
Skiing, downhill and cross country
I was 25 years old when I learned to ski. I had always thought that skiing was for "real athletes" so it was a real surprise to learn that skiing is just controlled falling, so to speak. Friends taught me to ski but if you want expert advice, several of our ski operators throughout the state offer lessons for people of all ages.
There are so many fantastic places to snowmobile in Michigan. We have hundreds of miles of groomed trails and several sled rental operators and guides. My favorite experience was when a guide showed me how to cross a section of Lake Superior ice to get to Grand Island, in Munising. I was joined by a travel writer from the south who had never even seen snow before. He later told me it was one of the best experiences of his life.
Ice climbing
The UP is one of the best places in the world to ice climb. It's the home of Michigan Ice Fest, a national ice climbing festival, and for good reason. There are several waterfalls in the Pictured Rocks region for example that freeze up and build walls of ice that are perfect for climbing. The folks at Downwind Sports in Marquette showed me that climbing ice is like climbing a ladder, although it proved to be about a thousand times more difficult. After you figure out the basic balance issues, most people will love this.
Some of my other favorite winter activities include snowshoeing, dog sledding and hiking our snow covered trails. But, one of the best things about it all, is that at the end of your winter adventure you can come back to a cozy cottage, world-class resort or great restaurant and take in the beautiful scenery from the indoors. A Michigan winter truly offers something for everyone to enjoy.
Cross your fingers for plenty of snow and we can't wait to hear about your Michigan winter adventures.
Check out the kickoff video for the new Michigan winter adventure series below, and let us know what you're looking forward to this winter in Michigan!

Scott Boras Tactics on Capitol Hill?
When you have the right cards and you know you are going to win the hand, it's natural to hold out and sweeten the pot the best you can, while you can. The concept is as ancient as it is common: supply and demand; buy low, sell high… all those stock economic catchphrases.
We see this in sports all the time — in baseball in particular — most notably with the high profile clients of Scott Boras.
Sure, we were all initially excited about the Matt Holliday show in St. Louis last July; but we also knew that despite its quaint, warm appeal, it would ultimately end like this:
Naturally, our nation's elected leaders are not immune from similar Boras-like tactics.
You want that health care reform bill to pass the senate? Give my home state of Louisiana an extra $300 million in federal dough. Credit Sen. Mary Landrieu with that walk-off homerun to end the game (but not the series).
Do that 59 more times (they need 60 votes to move this thing) and we're looking at an extra $17.7 trillion we need to set aside to get a multi-billion dollar plan in place.
Or senators could just vote according to their constituents.
Now there's a thought.
Somehow, considering how much money is involved in motivating people to do… well… anything, I still feel like I must be doing something wrong.
I am skilled. I am intelligent. I have good ideas and I perform well.
But I only have about $345 of liquid assets to hold me over until payday and there's a lot of beer that must be consumed before then.
I wonder if Boras would be interested in representing a linguist.
Hate me 'cuz I am willing to sell out, just don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.
11 Comments
You know Jeff – the Devil himself might just sign you! But the real question is – how do you feel about selling your soul?
That poor kid…funny though. My daughter does stuff like that with the video camera in her room too…I often wonder how many disasters she had to edit out before showing me the video! LOL
Julia — My soul, like everything, has a price… but not even Scott Boras can get me that much money.
Jenn — I did the same sorta thing when I was a kid. I still do it. Look for us to be bringing some greatness back to RSBS TV soon!
I'm sure Boras would represent a linguist. Send him your stats and he'll do one of those thick binders on you and send it to the human resource people at the companies with the highest payrolls. You'll be rich in no time.
Jane — I'm gonna work that angle but I'm thinking my chances aren't as good as they'd be if my name were Matt Holliday.
If we start seeing more Chinese ballplayers maybe you'll become the Scotty Boras of MLB translators. Just be sure to teach 'em to say "Ni howdy!" when they sign with the Rangers.
Jonestein — Wow. Gotta tip my cap there, pal. "Ni Howdy" — now that's what I call a cultural exchange! Good job!
So Jeff, are you sure Beam Me Up Scotty was not hiding behind that girl's door?
So you're saying that Holliday's real motivation was really the $$$, not the idea that he and Pujols might actually be cornerstones for a team that could bring them some World Series bling, eh? Who knew?😉
Thanks for clearing that up!😉
Greg — Yeah. Pretty much. That's what I'm sayin'. Ha! I thought I was the King of Sarcasm. Bling bling!
Talk about a guy who could of produced a fillabuster, Scott Boras would have a great speaker.
Think about it, the guy does the research and get the fine results and stats that miss the eyes and ears of the general population.
He might be the sports answer to all our worldly problems.
Can we make him our delegate to the United Nations?
Rays Renegade
I'm afraid that would cost Joe Taxpayer waaaaaay too much $$$, RR. But if you wanna privately finance him to the UN, I'm sure there'd be some kickbacks for ya.

Fibrocystic breast disease is a common way to describe painful, lumpy breasts.
Fibrocystic breast disease; Mammary dysplasia; Diffuse cystic mastopathy; Benign breast disease; Glandular breast changes
The exact cause of the condition is not known. Hormones made in the ovaries may make a woman's breasts feel swollen, lumpy, or painful before or during menstruation each month.
Up to half of women have this problem at some time during their life. It is most common between the ages of 20 and 45. It is rare in women after menopause, unless they are taking estrogen.
In most cases, symptoms get better after menopause. If you take birth control pills, you may have fewer symptoms. If you are on hormone therapy, you may have more symptoms.
Symptoms are more often worse right before your menstrual period. They tend to get better after your period starts.
Symptoms can include:
You may have a lump in the same area of the breast that becomes larger before each period and shrinks afterward. This type of lump moves when it is pushed with your fingers. It does not feel stuck or fixed to the tissue around it. This lump is common with fibrocystic breasts.
Your health care provider will examine you. This will include a breast exam. Tell your doctor or nurse if you have noticed any breast changes.
If you are over 40, ask your doctor or nurse how often you should have a mammogram to screen for breast cancer. For women under 35, a breast ultrasound may be used to look more closely at breast tissue.
You may need further tests if a lump was found during a breast exam or your mammogram result was abnormal. Another mammogram and breast ultrasound may be done.
Women who have no symptoms or only mild symptoms do not need treatment.
Your health care provider may recommend the following self-care measures:
Some women believe that eating less fat, caffeine, or chocolate helps with their symptoms. But there is no evidence that these measures help.
Vitamin E, thiamine, magnesium, and evening primrose oil are not harmful in most cases. Studies have not shown these to be helpful. Talk with your health care provider before taking any medicine or supplement.
For more severe symptoms, your health care provider may prescribe hormones, such as birth control pills or other medicine. Take the medicine exactly as instructed. Be sure to let your provider know if you have side effects from the medicine.
Surgery is never done to treat this condition.
If your breast exams and mammograms are normal, you do not need to worry about your symptoms. Fibrocystic breast changes do not increase your risk of breast cancer. Symptoms usually improve after menopause.
Call your health care provider if:
Miltenburg DM, Speights VO Jr. Benign breast disease. Obstet Gynecol Clin North Am. 2008;35:285-300.

A native Hawaiian speaker claims the state is putting up roadblocks to Hawaii's native language.
Daniel Anthony claimed communicating in Hawaiian actually landed him in court. Now, he is speaking up about speaking the language.
The Hawaiian language is used in many official ceremonies and state events, after all, it is one of Hawaii's two official languages.
For Anthony, speaking Hawaiian is an important part of his life. He also feels it sends the right message to his children.
"My children go to Hawaiian language schools. We are raising the next generation to be proud of their culture and to live their culture," said Anthony.
When he tried to use the official language on official business, Anthony claimed he ran into a problem, "I found it difficult to deal with any state agency in Hawaiian. The extreme disrespect and discrimination coming from the state was appalling."
Anthony claimed he could not get a driver's license despite five requests to take the exam in Hawaiian. Each time his request was denied.
"Aia kekahikanakaolelo Hawaii. My name is Daniel Anthony. Does anyone here speak Hawaiian? I was laughed at, told I had to speak English, then told to leave," said Anthony.
His attorney, DesterKaiama, filed a motion to dismiss Anthony's traffic case of driving without a license. He claimed Hawaii's courts don't have jurisdiction over native Hawaiians because there was no treaty of annexation over a century ago. But Kaiama also adds, the current state constitution upholds the Hawaiian language.
"Because it is recognized in the constitution, the law does provide Anthony certain rights and protections," said Kaiama.
Anthony is taking a stand in traffic court to force the state to allow one of its official languages to be more frequently used. He also wanted to encourage native Hawaiians to speak up -- in Hawaiian.
"Why would we have children spend 12 years in Hawaiian language schools and then not be able to apply what they have learned? All this in the same state that funds the school. Our charter school movement is creating graduates each year with no place in our society. Students have an important skill that is not deemed valuable by the state," said Anthony.
Anthony has had other success changing the state's stance on native Hawaiian issues. He pushed for traditional poi practices to be allowed without health department approval. The making of paiai is now exempt from regulation.
Anthony's traffic case was continued until later this month.

Smog Check and Car Inspection in New York
The New York Department of Motor Vehicles (NY DMV) requires vehicles to complete both a safety and emissions inspection every 12 months. You must complete your inspection when required or risk being penalized.
New to New York?
If your vehicle has been properly inspected before entering the state and has an inspection sticker, you can register your car with the NY DMV. Your out-of-state sticker will be valid until it expires, or for 1 year from establishing NY residency—whichever comes first.
If your vehicle has not been previously issued an inspection sticker (even if it has received an inspection), you must get a safety and emissions inspection in New York before registering your vehicle.
About the NY Vehicle Inspection Program
The New York Vehicle Inspection Program (NYVIP) is administered by the NY DMV. The inspection program involves a:
- Vehicle safety inspection.
- Vehicle smog and emissions test.
Vehicle Safety Inspection
The purpose of the vehicle safety inspection is to ensure that your vehicle is in safe operating condition according to New York state laws.
When you present your vehicle for inspection, technicians will inspect:
- Seat belts.
- Brakes.
- Steering mechanism.
- Chassis and suspension.
- Tires, wheels, and wheel fasteners.
- Vehicle lights (e.g. turn signals, headlights, brake lights, etc.).
- Windows, windshield, and windshield wipers.
- Horn.
- Fuel leaks and signs of any other leakage.
For additional information regarding the safety inspection, feel free to review the NYVIP's inspection overview page.
Smog and Emissions Inspection
Unless your vehicle is exempt, you must complete an emissions test in addition to the safety inspection (see "Requirements and Exemptions" below). The emissions inspection only takes a few minutes, and the types of tests required depend on the model year and weight of your vehicle:
- Model year 1996 and newer gas-powered vehicles less than 8,501 lbs.: On-Board Diagnostic inspection (OBDII).
- Model year 1997 and newer diesel-powered vehicles less than 8,501 lbs.: On-Board Diagnostic inspection (OBDII).
- Model year 1995 to 25 years old at 18,000 lbs. or less: Low-enhanced emission inspection.
OBDII Inspection
Part of the emissions inspection is the on-board diagnostics test (OBDII). This is a computerized test that connects to your vehicle to check the emissions system through the vehicle's computer. Your computer controls the emissions output of your engine, as well as a malfunction indicator light (MIL) that illuminates if your computer or your engine is not working correctly.
Low-Enhanced Emissions Inspections
The low-enhanced inspection is a thorough visual inspection of all the emissions equipment in your vehicle, including but not limited to:
- Functional gas cap.
- Catalytic converter.
- Exhaust gas recirculation valve.
- Positive crankcase ventilation system.
- Air injection system.
- Evaporative emissions control.
- Fuel inlet restrictor.
- Thermostatic air cleaner .
Once you complete your inspection, the results will be automatically uploaded to the NY DMV. A new inspection sticker will be affixed to your windshield, where it must remain at all times.
Review the NYVIP inspection overview page if you would like to know more about what will be examined on your vehicle for the emissions test.
NY Vehicle Inspection Requirements & Exemptions
The New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) requires all vehicles registered in the state to complete a vehicle inspection every 12 months.
- You should also plan to have your vehicle inspected if you meet any of the following requirements:
- You're new to NY and do not have a valid out-of-state inspection sticker in order to register your vehicle with the NY DMV.
- You purchased a car in a private sale (not from a dealer) and want to register it in your name with the NY DMV. The inspection must be completed within 10 days of registering your car.
- A vehicle's ownership has been transferred into your name. The inspection must be completed within 10 days of registering your car.
- Your current vehicle inspection sticker is about to expire. Sign up for e-reminders to receive an e-mail when it is time to get your vehicle inspected.
You may contact your local NY DMV office or call the NYDMV help desk at (518) 486-9786 if you have additional questions about vehicle inspections.
NY Vehicle Inspection Exemptions
There are no exemptions for vehicle safety inspections. Some vehicles are exempt from emissions inspections depending on the age or type of the vehicle. Emissions exemptions extend to:
- Vehicles less than 2 years old.
- Vehicles older than 25 years old.
- Electric vehicles.*
- Motorcycles.
- Vehicles registered with historical plates.
- Vehicles that meet heavy safety inspection standards, as defined by the NY DMV.
- Diesel powered vehicles model year 1997 and newer that weigh under 8,501 pounds.*
* For more information about emissions exemptions and other perks for driving eco-friendly vehicles, check our section on green driver incentives.
If you have additional questions about vehicle exemptions, contact your local NY DMV office or call the NY DMV help desk at (518) 486-9786.
Completing a NY Safety & Emissions Inspection
To complete your New York vehicle inspection, you may visit any New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) license inspection station. Official inspection stations have a yellow and black sign that says "Official Inspection Station." Inspection stations that do motorcycle inspections will also display an orange and blue sign.
When you go to your inspection, it's a good idea to bring the following:
- Proof of identification.
- Your vehicle registration and proof of insurance.
- Payment for the inspection fee (see "Inspection Fees" below).
When your inspection is complete, you will receive a Vehicle Inspection Receipt that you should keep for your records. This receipt can function as proof of inspection in the event that the DMV doesn't receive notice of your inspection completion, or your registration renewal notice says that you have not had an inspection.
You can find local inspection stations through the NY DMV's station look-up feature by zip code and county to locate the one closest to you.
Failed NY Vehicle Inspections
If your vehicle fails an inspection, you must make repairs prior to having it retested before your inspection sticker expires, or you risk additional late fees and penalties (see below). The vehicle must pass inspection prior to the expiration of the inspection sticker or they will be subject to late fees and penalties for not completing their inspection on time.
Failed Safety Inspection
The NY DMV does not offer any type of waiver or exemption for failing the safety inspection. If your vehicle fails, you must have it repaired and retested to obtain an inspection sticker. The vehicle inspection station can charge you for a retest.
- If you complete your retest within 30 days, only the safety repairs that you completed on your vehicle will be retested.
- If you complete your retest after 30 days, you must redo the entire inspection process, including the emissions portion.
Failed Emissions Inspection
Just as with your safety inspection, if your vehicle fails the smog and emissions check, it must be repaired and retested before the sticker expires. However, if your vehicle repeatedly fails the OBDII portion of the emissions test, you may be eligible to apply for a waiver (see below).
- If you complete your emissions retest within 30 days, only the repairs that you completed on your vehicle will be retested.
- Retests completed within 30 days only focus on the emissions repairs that were made to the vehicle.
- If you complete your emissions retest after 30 days, you must redo the entire inspection process, including the safety inspection portion.
- Retests completed after 30 days will repeat the entire testing process, including the safety inspection.
You may be subject to late penalties if you do not complete your inspection before your sticker expires.
OBDII Emissions Testing Waiver
You may be eligible to apply for an OBDII emissions inspection waiver if:
- Your vehicle failed its OBDII retest but received a vehicle report showing the vehicle passed all of the following:
- The safety inspection.
- The gas cap test (gas-powered only).
- A visual inspection of emissions and smog control devices (gas-powered only).
- The emissions control system on your vehicle is free from any signs of tampering and intact.
- You have attempted to complete emissions-related repairs to your vehicle, and the repair costs have reached at least $450.
- You must be able to provide receipts and work orders detailing the amounts and type of repairs completed on your vehicle by a NYS registered repair shop.
- If you completed the repairs yourself, you may only count parts, not labor, towards the $450 threshold.
If you meet the above requirements, then you may apply for a waiver at the time of your retest. Inspectors will complete the application for you, as long as you are able to provide them with all your repair receipts.
If your application is approved:
- You will be issued a waiver that you must sign, which is kept with the inspection station along with other documents regarding your waiver application.
- Inspectors will affix a new inspection sticker to your windshield that will be valid for 1 year.
New York Vehicle Inspection Fees
The New York Vehicle Inspection Program (NYVIP) fees depend on the maximum gross weight (MGW) of your vehicle, where you choose to have your vehicle inspected, and whether the vehicle requires an OBDII emissions test or a low-enhanced emissions inspection. Fees are broken down by safety inspections and emissions inspections.
New York Metropolitan Area:
- OBDII test: $27.
- Low-enhanced emissions test: $11.
- Diesel: $25
Upstate New York:
- OBDII test: $11.
- Low-enhanced emissions test: $11.
- Diesel: $25
Safety Inspection
Safety inspection fees are the same statewide.
- Light vehicles: $6 to $15.
- Heavy vehicles: $12 to $20.
- Motorcycles: $6.
Late Fees and Penalties
Vehicles that do not have an inspection sticker or have allowed the sticker to expire will not be allowed to renew its registration without successfully passing an inspection. You also run the risk of receiving a traffic ticket, and could face the following fines:
- Sticker expired for less than 60 days: $25 to $50.
- Sticker expired for more than 60 days: $50 to $100.
- No inspection sticker: $50 to $100.
You will also be charged a $88 mandatory state surcharge in addition to all the fines above, plus any additional fines assessed by the police or the NY DMV.
Out-of-State Vehicle Inspections
If your NYS inspection sticker expires while your vehicle is in another state, you must contact the DMV of the state you are in to see if it requires out-of-state vehicles to carry a valid inspection.
- If you are required to have a valid inspection from that state, comply with that state's rules for vehicle inspection. If the state issues an inspection sticker, it will satisfy the New York DMV regulations.
- If you are not required to have a valid inspection, you may request an extension from the NY DMV. You will have 10 days to complete a NYVIP inspection once you return to New York.
To request an extension on your inspection from the NY DMV, send the following information to the DMV:
- Your name as it appears on your registration.
- Your out-of-state mailing address.
- The make and year of your vehicle.
- Your license plate number.
- The expiration date and number of your inspection sticker.
Mail the above information to New York DMV at:
NYSDMV Bureau of Consumer and Facility Services
Inspection Extension
P.O. Box 2700
Albany, NY 12220-0700
Allow 14 days to receive your extension sticker in the mail. After you get your extension inspection sticker:

By Kevin Wilson: Freedom Newspapers
I work with a lot of women in my office, and I'm pretty sure that nearly half of the people I know are women. They always tell me the lesson Cinderella teaches is the right pair of shoes can change your life.
But what if the opposite is true, and life doesn't change your pair of shoes? For that, you'd have to ask former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
In a recent interview, Blair talked about a pair of Church's brand shoes that became a Sunday tradition.
"I know it's ridiculous, but I've worn them for every PMQs (Prime Minister's Questions)," Blair told France 24, a television network. "I've actually had them for 18 years."
I thought I'd forever associate Blair's tenure with his support for the Iraq war, but now I see him as the Brit who furthered questions of my masculinity.
I've only had the same shoe size for about 12 years, so I obviously don't have any shoes that stand up to Blair's standards. His shoe habits, however, only reinforce beliefs men simply don't need many pair.
Whenever I buy a new pair of shoes — and I'm in double digits on shoe ownership — the conversation starts. Coworker Tonya will say good for me because there's no reason any man, woman or child cannot own plenty of shoes. Another coworker will just mark it as another step toward irreversible metrosexuality.
"A man only needs three pairs of shoes — dress shoes, work shoes and athletic shoes," as coworker after coworker argues to me.
I'll agree those are the only types of shoes a man needs, but I'm not going to stop at just one of each. Any shoe store clerk will tell you enough shoes, worn with proper rotation, can keep all of your pairs appearing new. Real estate agents say, "Location, location, location," and Foot Locker managers say, "Rotation, rotation, rotation."
Along with good rotation, I have one other rule. I don't pay more than $100 for shoes, because they won't get worn often enough to justify the price, and the $15 Starbury shoe line endorsed by New York Knicks guard Stephon Marbury show those huge prices are only fueling greed for larger companies.
Regarding the $100 rule, I'll note that doesn't apply to dress shoes. The shoes Blair wore every Sunday for 18 years ran him $300 back then and would probably be about $500 today.
As Blair also told France 24, "cheap shoes are a false economy."
I agree. And social limits on shoes represent a false democracy. I think that's something on which every man, woman and metrosexual should agree.

Wisconsin's State Superintendent is calling the governor's education proposals catastrophic.
Tony Evers blasted Governor Scott Walker's proposal at the La Crosse County Democratic party's meeting Monday evening.
Governor Walker is suggesting an expansion to the school voucher program. It allows a student to attend a private school and the state will write a $6,400 check to that school.
Right now, that's happening in Milwaukee and Racine.
Evers says that expansion, along with a one percent increase in public aid to schools is disappointing. "There's going to be more money per pupil going to kids in the private system than in the 870,000 kids that are in the public system, and that just doesn't connect with me," said Evers.
The governor's full budget proposal will be unveiled Wednesday night.

"Arab Uprisings Shift to Political Struggles"
News, Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs
September 20, 2011
Author: James F. Smith, Former Communications Director, Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs
Belfer Center Programs or Projects: Middle East Initiative; Dubai Initiative; Future of Diplomacy Project
Many of this years Arab uprisings are evolving from angry popular revolts into drawn-out political struggles to build democratic systems that will protect basic civic rights and social justice, analysts told a Harvard Kennedy School forum on Monday, Sept. 19.
Rami G. Khouri, an associate in the schools Dubai Initiative and a prominent Beirut-based journalist, said that in Egypt, citizens have taken to the streets again to challenge the ruling military council not to backtrack from the spirit of the uprising that toppled President Hosni Mubarak.
In February and March, you had the birth of Arab citizens, said Khouri. What you are seeing today in Egypt is the birth of Arab politics. You are seeing the birth of contestation of power, peacefully by and large, with people in the streets, and the military has been forced to respond What comes next is the birth of true sovereignty and self-determination.
The John F. Kennedy Jr. Forum, titled Inside the Arab Awakening, also included Sultan Sooud Al Qassemi, a columnist based in the United Arab Emirates; Diana Buttu, a former spokesperson for the Palestine Liberation Organization and a fellow at the schools Middle East Initiative; and Karim Makdisi, a professor at the American University of Beirut.
The moderator was R. Nicholas Burns, Kennedy School professor of the practice of diplomacy and international politics and director of the Middle East Initiative in the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, which co-sponsored the Forum with the Institute of Politics.
Burns asked the panelists to assess the current state of uprisings and protests that have swept up no fewer than 22 Arab countries, from the Gulf to North Africa.
Al Qassemi said Gulf region monarchs had supported protests elsewhere in the Arab world with financing, and had offered support for the NATO military action against the Ghaddafi regime in Libya. But at home, many Gulf monarchs had defused or put down protests. The Sultan of Oman, for example, sacked 15 of 19 cabinet ministers, so it was very much absorbed quickly.
Al Qassemi said the government crackdown on protesters in Bahrain had left that small state like a kettle where the lid has been really tightened.
Buttu argued that the United States has lost credibility in the Arab region because it has taken an approach that has been hesitant when it comes to some of the protests, or taken the wrong side on others, as in Bahrain, and it has completely ignored the issue of Palestinians.
She said that many Arab countries in the past had exploited regional security issues to avoid dealing with demands at home for basic rights. These countries have maintained external stability at the expense of internal reform. Now it is going to be a question of focusing on the internal and less on the external.
Makdisi said the U.S. has lost tremendous credibility in the Arab world through unquestioning support for Israel and for autocratic regimes. He said the uprisings give the United States an opportunity to realign, to come back into some kind of middle of the road area with a little less of that clear divide between who they support and who they dont.
Answering a question from the full-house audience, Khouri said the outcome to the rebellion against President Bashar Assads government in Syria will have the most impact on the region because Syria is so connected to so many players and conflicts, from Israel to Lebanon and Hezbollah as well as Iraq and Iran.
I believe the Syrian regime is in deep trouble, but has a very small capacity to transform itself. Gradually this form of government in Syria is on its way out. The economic screws will be the ones that cause the pillars of the regime to finally collapse. It may take six months, or two or three years. But I think it will happen, Khouri said.
Khouri, who is director of the Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs at the American University of Beirut, added that the current Arab revolts offer a rare opportunity not just for Arabs themselves but for governments around the world. Everybody gets a second chance. If you have acted with a consistent sense of hypocrisy as a foreign power, and there are about 15 or 20 that I can name, you get a chance to do it again.
With the United States, we expect a minimum of honesty and clarity on just what does the U.S. support. If it is to safeguard oil rather than citizenship and dignity in the Arab world, tell us, thats okay. Well deal with it.
He said many Arab states were acting like independent countries for the first time, including Saudi Arabia and other Gulf nations that have been redeploying troops. These countries are acting like countries instead of protectorates whose policies are dictated by someone else. You not only have citizens but countries being born.

Wages and housingMarch 03,2014
Wages and housing
I think I have had a change of heart in regards to the minimum wage. Someone had put some information in front of me the other day that started to make some sense. I saw that a landlord who claims he makes $1 million per year was giving his tenants a hard time over being a couple of days late on the rent. This really got under my skin. Especially when the tenants were friends of mine who would give a homeless person their last $5. I thought what good are these so-called high income people actually doing for the community. They donate a couple grand of their millions, come on. The reality is that they are making it worse for everyone.
According to the 1940 Census data, my great-grandfather earned $1,250 per month as a stonecutter. He owned a house in Montpelier, worth $5,000, which is four months worth of stonecutter earnings. Today that same house still stands with an appraisal value of $230,000. What exactly made it so the price of property rose through the roof like that? So $5,000 is now worth $230,000.
Well, the easy answer is that a credit score was invented. Today people are paying more in rent than the buildings are actually worth. For instance, to rent a mobile home is about $750 per month. However, a mortgage payment on the same mobile home is closer to $450 a month. That is a big difference and I am sure some will argue that there are other expenses. However, after about five years, the renter has completely paid for the value of the property depending on the size of the lot its on.
This is an injustice to non-property owners. Because people are poor they are paying more. This is actually discrimination, maybe not by law but it is to the rest of us. What I would like to see is for someone to push some legislation through the State House setting a limit that landlords can charge in rent in the state. Not only that but we should also pass a law that says interest rates have to be the same for everyone. Then we would have more people owning homes and paying property tax.
We would also see a big change in quality of life. That way people are investing into themselves. Rather than giving their money to some jerk, who would like to see people sleeping in snowbanks because they are a few days late on the rent. Especially when the tenant has already paid enough in rent to pay for the whole building. We should be raising the minimum wage every two years just like landlords raise our rent.

Officials from the Airport Authority, Allegheny County, Moon Township and PA Department of Transportation participated in a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at the Roundabout on Monday, October 31, 2011. This Roundabout is a traffic improvement project designed to increase flow of vehicles and improve safety at the intersection of Ewing Road, Business I-376 on-and-off ramps and Resurrection Road in Moon Township. "Development on airport property is a priority of my administration. This project is directly related to the completed Cherrington Extension and the recent construction of the nearby US Airways Operations Control Center Facility, a project that Allegheny County won in a competition with Phoenix, AZ, and Charlotte, NC. This traffic enhancement will improve access for the current businesses here and will allow for future job growth and expansion in the airport area," said Allegheny County Executive Dan Onorato. "According to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, roundabouts bring a 90 percent reduction in fatal crashes and a 75 percent reduction in crashes with injuries. At the same time, they carry about 30 percent more vehicles in peak traffic than signalized intersections," said Dan Cessna, P.E., District Executive, PennDOT, District 11-0. "The success of this roundabout will benefit businesses, commuters and citizens of Moon Township. We look forward to safer and enhanced access at this intersection," said Jeanne Creese, Moon Township Manager. "Real estate development is a growth area for the Allegheny County Airport Authority. Our goal is to continue development on airport property, bringing jobs and commerce to the airport corridor. As a result, Pittsburgh International Airport's role as an economic generator is two-fold – providing high quality, competitive air service in and out of southwestern PA and developing key properties to attract new industry and jobs," said Glenn R. Mahone, Chairman, Allegheny County Airport Authority. The roundabout is a successful and economical method to reduce congestion, slow traffic down and keep maintenance costs low. A roundabout is like a traffic circle and eliminates traffic signals, stop signs and left turns against traffic. Traffic flows continuously, and vehicles entering the loop yield to those already in it. The Ewing Road roundabout is the first to be built in Allegheny County in recent years according to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. An important environmental feature was also part of the design. The interior island portion of the roundabout is paved with porous concrete. Storm water passes through porous concrete into the ground. This reduces storm water flows into nearby streams and lessens the likelihood of downstream flooding. The $950,000 Ewing Interchange Traffic Improvement Project was funded by the Allegheny County Airport Authority which receives no local tax dollars. This was phase two of the traffic project. Phase one was the improvement of the westbound side of the interchange where the road was expanded and traffic signals were installed at Hookstown Grade Road and Cherrington Road. The Airport Authority manages both Pittsburgh International Airport and Allegheny County Airport in West Mifflin, PA.

The 45-year-old Goliad woman claims she has also suffered memory loss, decreased motor ability, fatigue and a variety of other side effects since suffering a stroke in November 2013.
"I can't sleep," Gutierrez said. "I have to take pills to get me to sleep."
Gutierrez is convinced that her life-changing medical condition didn't have to happen. In fact, she is in the process of filing a lawsuit against the Goliad County Sheriff's Office, claiming her stroke was due to excessive use of force at the hands of a GCSO sergeant on May 3, 2013.
