Power up the climbs, effortlessly carve down tricky descents. Then sprint to the finish line. This is what cross-country racing is all about. Riding hard and riding fast. The BMC teamelite is the one full carbon, hardtail mountain bike that combines feathery weight, vertical compliance and surgical handling. The big wheels are efficient going uphill, providing remarkable traction and momentum, while our BWC geometry enhances cornering and our proven TCC carbon technology smooths out the rough stuff. It's a simple formula: Confidence + Efficiency = Faster riding. BMC's teamelite TE01 cross country racing bike is testament to our engineers ingenuity, and our racing Team's input.

The BMC fourstroke is one of the very few full suspension 29er mountain bikes successfully used on the WorldCup level. This fact alone sets it apart as an outstanding race bike. But then the fourstroke was always meant to be much more than that. The 29er wheels in conjunction with our BWC geometry, APS suspension and high overall stiffness inspire so much confidence that the BMC fourstroke is also an incredibly fast and capable trail bike.
If there is just one category the fourstroke FS01 fully belongs to, this is quite simply mountain biking.

The guys at Bliss - all of them are enthusiastic mountain bikers, skiers and snowboarders - were not satisfied with the current body armor on the market.

Bliss Protection is known as a riders brand and the mentality that comes along within. Consequently thinking outside the box is the daily grid at Bliss. They want thinner, more flexible, lighter and even more breathable protection, so they can ride longer and have more fun and comfort. There was nothing in the shops you can buy so far, so Ascherl and his crew started their own protection company.

I liked the beginning. The song is a bit peppy. The claps aren't ,y style in songs, so I didn't enjoy it very well after it was added. It was too loud. Overall it was a very good song.
Yeah I know what you mean. With the software I use to produce these songs, its basically impossible to change each piece of volume of a drum kit I use in a song so thats why the claps are so loud. Thanks a lot though. :D

Cheats and Walkthroughs(1)
Resident Evil 5 was released way back in March, but Capcom's only now getting around to releasing some ambitious downloadable content for the latest zombie adventure (there was some at launch, too). Over the next few months, Capcom will distribute two downloadable episodes -- the Jill Valentine-starring Lost In Nightmares and an untitled second episode -- new costumes and a "The Mercenaries Reunion" mode with eight new characters and new weapon load-outs.
Capcom has released no details on what to expect from the second downloadable episode. Lost In Nightmares follows Valentine and Chris Redfield as they investigate Umbrella co-founder Ozwell E. Spencer's hidden mansion. Chris and Jill reunited for a mansion tour? Sounds pretty cool.
The content will be released through both Xbox Live, PlayStation Network and in a $49.99 "Gold Edition" at retail. All of the additional content will be included on the Blu-ray disc for PlayStation 3, while the DVD-based Xbox 360 version comes bundled with a download token.
Capcom has released a complete release schedule for the complicated roll out, too:
Since it's been almost a year since Resident Evil 5...are you still interested?

Rebuilding the Honor Roll at Minidoka
In 2010, The Friends of Minidoka was awarded a $17,295 grant from the National Parks Service (NPS) to re-establish the Honor Roll at the Minidoka National Historic Site. (See
NPS grant program news [PDF]
What is the Honor Roll?
In 1943, President Roosevelt established the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, an all-Nisei unit, and called for volunteers from the ten internment camps. Most of the Japanese families from Washington and Oregon were sent to Minidoka in south central Idaho. While Minidoka had 7 percent of the males at all of the centers, it provided 25 percent of the volunteers. Eventually, over 1,000 Nisei from Minidoka would volunteer to serve in the armed forces. As a way of honoring the sacrifices of those who volunteered, an Honor Roll was constructed in the Victory Garden just inside the entrance to Minidoka. The Honor Roll listed the name of each individual from Minidoka who volunteered to serve.
No records exist indicating what happened to the Honor Roll after Minidoka was closed in 1945. However, based on historic photographs, FOM Board member Bill Vaughn prepared construction plans for the Honor Roll, which were used for its re-creation.
Honor Roll Dedicated at 2011 Pilgrimage
After years of planning and information gathering, the Minidoka Honor Roll has become a reality! The Honor Roll was re-established at the entrance to Minidoka National Historic Site and dedicated at the 2011 Minidoka Pilgrimage. Every year, the names of fallen Minidoka soldiers are read on the last day of the Pilgrimage. During the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Kay Endo, a WWII Nisei veteran, read the names, and with the newly installed Honor Roll as a backdrop, the moment was full of tears. Bill Vaughn, Friends of Minidoka board member and retired architect, oversaw much of the installation. Superintendent Wendy Janssen noted that his help was instrumental in making the project possible. Anna Tamura of NPS and Keith Yamaguchi, Commander of the Nisei Veterans Committee in Seattle, worked with the community to research the names. FoM thanks all those who worked on this project!

Some lucky kid out there asked his parental units to buy him Borderlands 2 for his birthday and boy did they ever. Not only did their bundle of joy get the game, they went ahead and built a Claptrap out of what looks like foam board to box it up in style!
My parents loved me too, at least I think they did. They bought me things like underwear, Voltron, and LEGO blocks but I don't ever remember them taking the time to creatively box anything like this. Now that I think about it, I got a Michael Jackson Thriller jacket one time and my mom hid it behind a couch cushion. I thought that was pretty creative.

Teaching Your Children with Coupons

Coupon Clipping? Get Your Kids on Board
Saving Kids from Consumerism
Coupons can be a great tool in educating your child about saving money, being frugal, and shopping smart. Who doesn't want their children to grow up knowing how to save easily on every purchase? With coupon clipping, you'll show them money saving skills they can use throughout their life!
Teaching your child with coupons can start at an early age. Using the coupon inserts in your Sunday paper can be a great way to teach children the colors. It is also a good way to read to your children, and the time spent will show them the value that coupons can bring to their life.
As your child grows, you can let them take a more active role in using the coupons you collect together. Letting them in on helping to manage your coupon folder will show them the importance of time and money management. Go through and get rid of old coupons together, pointing to a calendar to let them learn about time and expiration. Show them that organization and thinking ahead of a purchase will help them save money. These savings can be applied throughout their life, so it's important to get them playing an active role in your coupon management.
Another thing that makes coupons so great in your child's education is it teaches them math and counting skills. You can point out dollars off, letting them subtract from the purchase price, and teach them how much value can come from something that's free. You can calculate percentages and add savings amounts. Another idea is to let them get an allowance from all the savings they find. This will not only help motivate them to find great deals, but it can help you save a lot of money at the same time.
We all know the Internet is playing an increasing role in everyone's lives. Did you know that coupons have found their way online? For most purchases, you can always find an online coupon or promotion code that can be applied at checkout. Make sure to show your children about this easy way to save money by simply spending a couple minutes to find a coupon. And, these types of savings are still free and are even easier to find! You can just search on any of the search engines like Google or Yahoo and find a huge range of coupons for any retailer. Not only will this teach your child about coupons, but also they'll be learning the value of using computers and the Internet to save them money.
We don't think about it much, but starting early to teach your children with coupons is very important. They will learn about the calendar, math, and saving money. These tools you teach them now will last throughout their life, so make sure to get an early start in coupon clipping with kids!

(maxing out the rebate in one transaction)
- You will pay $1034.75.
- If you pay with credit card, because the amount is more than $500, a manager will need to come to the register to authorize it (which is normal procedure).
- The register will print a Redemption Form, showing that you bought five $200 Visa cards. But "Rebates you're eligible for using this rebate redemption form" will only show 1. It means your receipt is eligible for "one" of staples current rebates. Again, this is fine.

Validation in progress. * Staples Gift Card for $150.00
Developments Timeline:
Nov 11, 2012:
Promotion is live.
Limits and rewards are not clear based on official wording of the rebate.
Many people start experimenting - buying Visa/MC cards in different denominations and, upon submitting their receipt discover that:
- -denominations other than $100 Visa or $100 MC, work for rebate as well
- -buying $100 Visa or MC produces $15 Staples Gift Card rebate
- -buying $200 Visa produces $30 Staples Gift Card rebate.
Great news! The $200 Visa has only $6.95 activation fee.
Only $1 more than the $100 Visa, but double the reward.
- -buying 2 x $200 Visa in one transaction produces $75 Staples Gift Card rebate (glitch, mistake), instead of expected $60
- -buying 3 x $200 Visa in one transaction produces $135 Staples Gift Card rebate (glitch, mistake), instead of expected $90
- -buying 4 x $200 Visa in one transaction produces $150 Staples Gift Card rebate (glitch, mistake), instead of expected $120
- -buying 5 x $200 Visa in one transaction produces $150 Staples Gift Card rebate
Nov 12 - Nov 18:
- -Poor rebate wording causes a lot of confusion about the limits. Nobody really knows the limits.
- -A lot of speculation and discussion takes place, about the glitch and supposed limits, and whether or not Staples will fix it and adjust the rebates.
- -It is advised that you should do 2 transactions to max the rebate limit potential, based on the glitch, and unclear rebate wording regarding limit and reward...
TRANS 1: 3x$200 Visa cards (pay $21 activation fee, and maybe receive $135 Staples card)
TRANS 2: 2x$200 Visa cards (pay $14 activation fee, and maybe receive $75 Staples card)
Nov 18:
- -someone contacts Parago (rebate company) customer support via email and asks if buying $200 Visa will result in $30 Staples Card rebate.
- -Parago confirms it - customer support email posted (thanks phazein)
Nov 19, 2012:
- Staples sends out emails to all customers who submitted rebates where the amount shown was wrongly calculated due to the glitch.
Quote from Staples email sent to customers :Dear Valued Staples Customer,
We have identified you as one of the consumers who may have visited the
Staples Easy Rebate site to track your rebate. Upon tracking your
submission, you may have noticed that the value of your rebate might
have calculated incorrectly.
Please know that we are working to correct this issue. When you
receive your Staples gift card in the mail, it will be loaded with
the correct reward value.
We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
As always, thanks for shopping at Staples.
Staples Rebate Team
- -more confirmation from Parago customer support (online chat) that buying 3 x $200 Visa results in $90 Staples Gift card reward. online chat posted thanks teamhurtado
- -FINALLY! A confirmation that maximum limit is $150 reward in Staples Gift cards, for buying $1000 in Visa or MC gift cards (regardless of denomination). staples online chat posted thanks stm69
Dec 1, 2012:
- Some people starting to report that their rebates show the corrected amount now (ie: $90 for buying 3x$200 Gift Cards) and confirming we will get $15 for each $100 bought.
- AMEX SERVE is locking accounts of people who added the Gift Cards and withdraw, and asking for copy of SSN and copy of front and back of "all credit/debit" cards.

And I have used Serve with prepaid credit cards, VISA gift cards, and regular credit cards. It is sometimes hit or miss with individual cards, but it has worked on all of those groups before.
Serve has waived CC loading fees until March. However, I got an email threatening to close my account after loading with a CC and withdrawing to a bank account. It goes against their T&C point regarding that it is not allowed to be used for cash advances (can't send it to someone else either). So either load up a bunch until March and just withdraw a lot at once, or plan to unload the serve card via amazon payments or just buy stuff with it.

New York (Oct. 3)
After seventeen years of service, Morris D. Waldman, vice-chairman, of the executive committee of the American Jewish Committee has, at his request, been granted retirement as of October 1, 1945, it was announced today by Judge Joseph M. Proskauer, committee president, and Jacob Blaustein, chairman of the executive committee. Mr. Waldman, who is sixty-six, will henceforth be relieved of all professional duties and responsibilities, but will continue his association with the committee as a lay member of the organization's executive committee.
In making this announcement, Judge Proskauer and Mr. Blaustein declared: "Morris Waldman has made a great contribution to the success of the American Jewish Committee and to the cause of Jewry all over the world. Speaking not only for ourselves, but in behalf of the entire membership of the American Jewish Committee, we hope that we may have the benefit of his wisdom and counsel for many years to come."
Prior to assuming the position of executive vice-president of the American Jewish Committee, Mr. Waldman had spent over a quarter of a century in other fields of social work and community organization. From 1909 to 1917, he was managing director of the United Hebrew Charities of New York City, at that time the largest organization of its kind in the United States.
Mr. Waldman held the post of European director of the Medico-Sanitary and War Orphans Departments of the American Joint Distribution Committee during 1921-22 when he introduced innovntions which substantially raised the level of Jewish health in Eastern Europe. With the growth of anti-Semitism in the United States, he organized in 1933 a comprehensive educational program aimed at familiarizing the American people with the general situation in Germany and the plight of the Jews. Under his leadership, a public relations department, originally called the "survey committee," was established within the American Jewish Committee.
In the later years of Mr. Waldman's administration, the American Jewish Committee established a Research Institute for Peace and Post-War Problems. Mr. Waldman strongly advocated the promulgation of an international bill of rights to safeguard minorities throughout the world. Appreciation for his contribution to the formulation of an international bill of rights was recently expressed in a letter from Edward R. Stettinius, former Secretary of State, who was chairman of the San Francisco conference.

William Robert Porter: AME Pastor and Confidante of Many
Mary Wells | 1/7/2009, 1:06 p.m.
The Rev. Dr. William Robert Porter, 75, a strong advocate for women in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, died of cancer Dec. 30, 2008 at Washington Hospital Center.
He was pastor of Hemingway AME Church in District Heights, Md. for 33 years before his health demanded his retirement from the 1,000 member church in 2005. Fighting back tears after Bishop Adam Richardson gave him his retirement certificate, Rev. Porter said, "It is very emotional when you have been somewhere for 33 years and you have baptized babies and the babies of their babies."
Rev. Porter also broke new ground by being one of the early supporters of Bishop Vashti McKenzie as the first female bishop in the AME Church.
The youngest of three children of the late Marie West and Earl Mack, Porter lost both parents before he was seven-years-old and was adopted by his maternal aunt. He attended secondary schools in D.C., graduating from Armstrong Senior High School.
He married Doris Roberts in 1955 and fathered four daughters, Robin, Dionne, Darian and Dana.
He attended Miner Teachers College and Howard University School of Religion. He was honored by the B.F. Lee Theological Seminary in Florida and the Monrovia College in West Africa when he was awarded a Doctorate of Divinity and a Doctorate in Law and Humanities, respectively.
Porter was appointed by the late Bishop Wendell Murphy in 1972 to serve as pastor of Hemingway Memorial, located at that time in Fairmount Heights, Md.
He was elected as a delegate to the General AME Conference and became known throughout the AME Church as a dedicated mentor, visionary and encourager. His colleagues said he was the one many in the AME Conferences turned to when making difficult business or personal decisions.
"You can't call on Bill Porter anymore," said Bishop William DeVeaux, Presiding Prelate of the Sixth Episcopal District, AME, who preached the Eulogy, "but you can call on the God he believed in."
He fathered into ministry numerous ministers, including the Revs. Grainger and Jo Ann Browning of Ebenezer AME and Dana Porter Ashton, his daughter.
"They took us in when we came from Massachusetts, not knowing where we would be staying or pasturing,€ Rev. Jo Anne Browning said. €They fed us, shepherded us and epitomized love to us. Mrs. Porter told her husband to hire my husband as youth pastor at Hemingway and she taught me how to be a first lady."
Rev. Grainger Browning said, "Ebenezer has its foundation from Hemingway. He was a family man and the hardest working man. He worked at HUD from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., then came to Hemingway every night, and Saturdays, too. He let me know that ministry was not a 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. position."
Many colleagues spoke of Rev. Porter€s involvement and leadership in the area, including helping to carry a coffin to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial reading "Jim Crow is Dead" during the 1963 March on Washington. He worked with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. during early years of the District's home rule and was invited to the White House to meet with President Lyndon Johnson as youth advocate for DC Mayor Walter Washington.
Left to mourn his demise are his wife of 53 years, Doris Porter; daughters Robin Porter Smith of D.C., Dionne Porter Luckett of Suitland, Md., Darian Porter Jones of Wake Forest, N.C. and the Rev. Dana Porter Ashton of Owings Mills, Md.; a sister, Sarah Harley of Landover, Md.; a brother, Earl Mack of D.C.; an adopted son, Bobby Craig; seven grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.

A stretch of the Wabash Cannonball Trail was officially opened yesterday with a ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by Lucas County Commissioner Tina Skeldon Wozniak.
The newest portion of the hiking/biking trail covers 3.5 miles and runs from the Fulton County Line to Yawberg Road and the Black Road connector to the North Fork.
The total cost of the project is about $1.8 million, and county officials said the bill was paid mostly with federal transportation dollars.
The Wabash trail now consists of 21 miles of paved trail open for public use.
The project s next phase will be for the developers of the Shops at Fallen Timbers to build a path linking the trail to the mall site and to the nearby Toledo Area Metroparks footbridge over U.S. 24.

Five Pillars
My daughter and I have been talking a lot about the pillars of Islam. Now that she's a little older she fully understands each pillar and loved making this craft. After she painted all the cardboard tubes, I placed masking tape on each one for her to write the pillar names, and then I glued everything together with a hot glue gun. The idea for this activity came from Crayola.com here.
5 comments:
Wow, this is such a neat idea! It is always nice ( and not to mention more effective) when you make learning fun.ReplyDelete
Love this work (got here from Misha's blog). Very simple way to illustrate the five pillars.ReplyDelete
(Read with Meaning)
This is a great idea! Thank you.ReplyDelete
Assalammualaikum sister :)ReplyDelete
Great idea and great blog.
Thank You for a really nice idea! I used it and we also played with the pillars: I putted them into a bag and my 3 years old son took them from there one by one and tried to explain the meaning of the pillar. He liked it a lot and wanted to play again and again!

Do you remember watching Saturday morning cartoons as a kid? I sure do. I also remember when one day my normal cartoons were disrupted by this bizarre edu-taining cautionary tale titled "Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue." Garfield is the only GoComics property to put in an appearance here (and a rather lazy one at that), but I thought I'd post this as something of a counterweight to the current pro-legalization movement. The most terrifying part: When Kermit and Ms. Piggie take the wayward protagonist on a journey through his brain by harnessing "the power of the imagination." Truly bizarre stuff.
Also involving powers of the imagination is this helpful comics-drawing guide by Rip Haywire / Brevity / KidSpot powerhouse Dan Thompson. This panel is the second-step in his three-page post on drawing comics, and a helpful guide to anyone who doesn't want to draw their own empty panels on a sheet of 8.5 x 11 paper.
Finally, I leave you with this mind-blowing + charming Frank and Ernest from a couple weeks ago. Hope you have a wonderful weekend from all of us here at GoComics HQ.

The folks at Fat Cat's Fish & Grill aren't just blowing smoke.
Manager Mike Williams said owner Gary Cain's Southern barbecue will return to the restaurant's menu as soon as crews complete the addition of a patio, second kitchen and bar on the south side of the building at 1309 Dumas Drive.
The extra kitchen will allow the addition of a smoker - for the barbecue - and several new fryers.
The bar will contain a big-screen TV and an open area for live blues performances, he said.
A new push for delivery and a second birthday just seem to go together.
Crush Wine Bar & Deli is marking its second birthday by getting the word out about its little-known downtown delivery service. I had no idea. Did you?
The restaurant at 701 S. Polk St. makes deliveries of five orders or more between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. to a center city area bounded by South Third Avenue on the north, Grant Street on the east, Van Buren Street on the west and South 15th Avenue on the south, said co-owner Robbie Moseley.
Babies Palace - open just a few months in Coulter Forum at Southwest 34th Avenue and Coulter Street - offers unique baby gifts, baby shower supplies and diaper cakes.
Yes, you read correctly. Diaper cakes. Owners Tracy and Daniel Miller assemble cakes from as many as 30 to 40 disposable diapers, either for gifts for parents-to-be or shower centerpieces.
The Millers found their niche after searching for items themselves. "We have three kids," Tracy Miller said. Hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
Just one degree of separation lies between a new Taste of Thai Restaurant that was to open this weekend at 1900 S.E. 34th Ave. in the Tradewind Shopping Center and My Thai Thai & Chinese Food at 2029 S. Coulter St.
Steve Kongdara, a former manager at My Thai and waiter before that, decided to open his own eatery serving Thai and Chinese food. Taste of Thai's hours are to be 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days a week, Kongdara said.
Contractors are transforming a space in at Wolflin Pointe into The Nook, a store offering women's clothing, jewelry and gifts, as well as kids' jewelry, gifts and backpacks.
Martha Vibbard hopes to open the store Aug. 2 at the new shopping center at Interstate 40 and Wolflin Avenue. Hours will be 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
Among the gifts, look for crosses that her residential framing contractor hubby, Larry Vibbard, crafts from painted wood and metal.

Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, Bhim Prasad Acharya said that the government will take action against those casinos that are reluctant to pay the due royalty bills within a week.
Speaking at an interaction program in the capital on Wednesday, Minister Acharya said the government will take action against the owners as per the government policy.
The government is not in favour to shut the casinos down, said Acharya. However, he said the owners should pay their dues and operate the casinos.
If they think that the government will stay calm towards the shutdown of the casinos without paying the dues, it would be mistake, he added.
"If the casino owners turn a deaf ear, we will announce for fresh operators."
All the casinos across the country have been closed by the government after they were reluctant to pay their outstanding tax and royalty bills despite repeated warnings from the state.

The latest issue of the Clinical Gastroenterology & Hepatology assesses the relationships between deep remission and other outcomes among patients who received adalimumab.
Patients with moderate to severe ileocolonic Crohn's disease (CD) who received adalimumab induction and maintenance therapy had greater rates of mucosal healing than patients who received placebo after adalimumab induction therapy in a 52-week trial (EXTend the Safety and Efficacy of Adalimumab Through ENDoscopic Healing).
Dr JeanFrédéric Colombel and colleagues from New York, USA investigated whether this treatment also induced deep remissiona composite clinical and endoscopic end point.
Rates of deep remission, defined as the absence of mucosal ulceration and Crohn's disease Activity Index scores less than 150, were compared between patients given continuous adalimumab and those given only induction therapy followed by placebo.
The team assessed the relationships between deep remission and other outcomes among patients who received adalimumab.
The outcomes of patients with deep remission were compared with those of patients with only the absence of mucosal ulceration or only clinical remission.
Rates of deep remission were 16% in patients given adalimumab vs 10% in those given placebo at week 12, and 19% vs 0% at week 52.
The research team found that rates of deep remission were greatest among patients who received adalimumab and had Crohn's disease for 2 years or less.
At week 52, patients who achieved deep remission at week 12 required significantly fewer adalimumab treatment adjustments, hospitalizations, and Crohn's disease-related surgeries.
The patients also had significantly less activity impairment, and had better quality of life and physical function compared with patients not achieving deep remission.
Deep remission generally was associated with better outcomes than only an absence of mucosal ulceration, outcomes of patients with deep remission vs only clinical remission were similar.
The team noted that deep remission was associated with estimated total cost savings of $10,360 compared with lack of deep remission.
Dr Colombel's team concludes, "In an exploratory study of patients with moderate to severe ileocolonic Crohn's disease who received adalimumab induction and maintenance therapy, patients achieving deep remission appeared to have better 1-year outcomes than those not achieving deep remission."
"These findings should be validated in large, prospective trials."

I really like what he said about the pros. Too often do pros come into town and just rip op TD's and course designers. That type of attitude is not getting us anywhere.

Freerice is a non-profit website that is owned by and supports the United Nations World Food Programme.
Freerice has two goals:
- Provide education to everyone for free.
- Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.
This is made possible by the generosity of the sponsors who advertise on this site.
Whether you are CEO of a large corporation or a street child in a poor country, improving your education can improve your life. It is a great investment in yourself.
Perhaps even greater is the investment your donated rice makes in hungry human beings, enabling them to function and be productive. Somewhere in the world, a person is eating rice that you helped provide.
Feel free to contact us for any questions regarding the site or sponsorship opportunities. You can also find Freerice on Twitter and Facebook.
Thank you.
Why has the number of grains donated for each correct answer changed from 10 grains to 20 and then back to 10?
When Freerice started in October 2007, we gave 10 grains of rice for each correct answer. We were then fortunate enough to be able to increase this to 20 grains for 2008.
Unfortunately, we then had to decrease this to 10 grains again in January 2009 as a result of the global economic crisis and its effect on internet advertising. When the economic climate improves, we hope to be able to increase it once again.

A Dartmouth man accused of sexually abusing two boys in the Moncton area nearly 50 years ago, when he was a scout leader, has elected to be tried by a judge and jury in the New Brunswick Court of Queen's Bench.
David (Chick) Wolfe, 68, faces two charges of indecent assault.
A lawyer appeared in Moncton provincial court Friday on behalf of Wolfe, who was not present.
A preliminary inquiry, to determine if there is sufficient evidence to proceed to trial, will be held in provincial court next April 22.
Codiac RCMP opened an investigation after a 61-year-old man came forward late last year to say that he was abused by a scout leader when he was 13.
The man told police he was assaulted at a home in Riverview, close to the school where the scout meetings were held.
Wolfe is also charged with using threats to keep a person from reporting a crime, in connection with allegations by a second male complainant.
The offences are alleged to have been committed in Riverview and Moncton between January 1964 and December 1965.
The man whose complaint sparked the investigation said he's ready to testify against Wolfe.
"I'm not looking forward to standing up in court and describing what happened to me, but I will," Richard Dutkiewicz told reporters outside court.
"I'm nervous, but relieved it's finally moving along," he said. "It's been a long process, over a year. I realize the wheels of justice grind slowly, but they do grind."
Complainants in sex crimes normally have publication bans in place to protect their identities, but there is no ban on Dutkiewicz's name, and that's the way he wants it.
Dutkiewicz said the assaults against him occurred over a couple of months and he's had difficulties in his life as a result.
"A couple of years ago, I decided to tell people why," he said.

We'll get them next time. That's all I have to say.
I dont want to be the one that sounds like a sore loser but is it me or was paul pierce untouchable the whole game,refs missed atleast 2 easy charges that wouldve been called on any other player and just down right crappy calls in the paint for PP
And the worst one was the game winner,i rewind it 4 times and it was an obvious push off,for arm was sticking out because in all honesty amare was shadowing pierce and all of a sudden pierce steps back and amare stops so suddenly,agh it was a missed call and another gripe is the shot clock, i believe there was .6 to .7 seconds on the clock and they missed it but hey you cant get every call but hope they dont do this for bosh,lebron,wade because we know how the refs always want their autographs,
good game by the knicks none the less but bad officiating and shot clock keeping at the worst possible moments
We'll get them next time. That's all I have to say.
Sig made by Sons of Thunder
idw make excuses nobody does, but anyone smell some fish?
...oh yeah it was the refs lol
I hate Pierce, and yes Boston mugged a few guys and got away with it (most notably Fields and Felton several times got hammered)....But we allowed this to happen to us. Hate to rely on refs to call the outcome
I ain't a hater or a soar loser. But I cant stand Pierce for years.He's such a douche, he got no class mocking the fans. The Celtics were **** with just him. He forgets they were nothin before Allen and Garnett he needs to get off his high horse.
"Orange and blue; yesterday, today, and tomorrow..." -Me
For real. Amar'e has been our savior. I'm really loving our team this year and Boston and NY will always be rivalries in every sport. That's just how it is. I don't care what ESPN says lol
"Orange and blue; yesterday, today, and tomorrow..." -Me
I thought Amar'es 3 was amazing....too bad with .04 ticks, you don't have time to take a conventional shot, like he did. A a tap in is about all that time will allow. Think how lucky Boston is, to have taken that shot to take the lead, and leave just .04 of a second left....Lucky Stiffs
The amount of celebrating from the greens betrays that this was an important win for them, which is what Tirpucka said in post-game.

The house was empty, or so it seemed. Tom took off his jacket and hung it over the back of a chair in the living room. He went to the kitchen and took a beer from the fridge. Opening it, he took a long swig and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.
"Ah… the weekend. Let the good times roll!" he thought to himself.
He started to climb the stairs of the house, taking off his tie with his free hand. He took another swig of his beer, and heard what sounded like a moan. He stopped on the stairs and turned around. Seeing no one, he shrugged his shoulders and continued up the stairs.
He arrived at the landing and again heard the noise, louder this time. He looked around and again saw no one. He walked towards the master bedroom, passing by the au pairs door. He noticed that it was slightly ajar, and then heard another moan. He stopped and listened. The house was silent accept for the occasional moan. He wanted to know where it was coming from. Another moan, or was it more of a grunt? He knew where it was coming from this time.
Tom crept up to the au pairs door, and slowly eased it open. The site that met his eyes caused his heart to beat faster. There, lying on her bed, naked as the days she was born, was Sylvie, the au pair. Her eyes were closed. Her left hand was feeling her right breast, pinching her nipple. Her right hand was wrapped around the end of a vibrator that she was busy plunging in and out of her pussy.
Tom watched mesmerized by her display. Her breathing was becoming more urgent and her thrusting was getting faster. Her hand was a blur as she thrust the fake penis in and out of her with speed. Tom could feel his own sense of arousal. He looked down and could see the bulge forming at the front of his trousers. He returned his attentions back to Sylvie. She stopped tweaking her nipple and ran her hand down her body. She started to feverishly rub her clitoris whilst still keeping the momentum of her thrusting.
She started to thrash her head about. Her moans were now more audible and regular. She started to raise her hips in time with her thrusting.
"Oh my God!!!!" she screamed as she shuddered to her climax. "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"
She was still rubbing her clit but she had slowed down with both hands. She pulled the vibrator out and brought it up to her mouth. She stuck out her tongue and began to lick it clean. Tom leant against the doorframe, making a creaking sound. Sylvie turned her head.
"Mr. Green! Oh my… I am… oh dear….", she mumbled, trying in vain to cover herself.
