text: With the 20th anniversary of Kurt Cobain's death approaching the Seattle police say they are just preparing themselves for the onslaught of questions and interest in the death of the rock legend. This, they say is why they have started looking at the case again. After a Seattle news station reported that the police were re-opening the investigation Courtney Love went into panic mode and stopped looking for MH370 long enough to make sure she still had her story straight. The news report says that police recently developed four rolls of film from the scene that had just been discovered. There was no information about whether the film provided any new evidence or clues and it probably won't because there were a whole lot of police and detectives swarming all over the scene when it happened. I remember watching MTV that day. They still showed music at the time and the little crawl just came across the screen and then you had to wait because there was no such thing really as the internet to jump on and take a look at news reports. Everyone had to patiently wait for Kurt Loder to finish chain smoking a pack of cigarettes and come on the air and give us a report about the shooting. If there had been the same kind of access then as there was now I wonder what the furor would have been like.

Thanks for the play-by-play, Sequinsgalore.
Is it just me or did anyone else get a G&G vibe w/that young Russian team? They've obviously got things to work on, not a lot and mainly little things, but they are *very* impressive!!
It was after trying to figure out who they were *strongly* reminding me of for the first half, it hit me who!! Then in that interview, it really struck me the simliarities. Everyone said Katia was the boss of that team, even she has said it, and that comes across w/this young Russian pair too.
She is adorable and I loved just how much she wanted to make sure she got her point across in English. Also gained my respect as well for that. They are w/out a doubt a team to keep an eye on for the future and it's going to be fun too to see how they develop.
Not a bad first outing for Megan and Eric. Can't get over just how tall he is compared to her. I mean...He literally *towers* over her. However, that's a good thing for certain things. Such as lifts. That was another thing I couldn't get over this afternoon. Just how secure Megan looked up in the air for the lifts. I knew their lifts would be better than Megan's was w/Craig, just due to how literally Craig's shoulder was hanging together by a thread. I wasn't prepared for *how* much better they would be though and...Wow!! Can't wait to see what they have in store for us tomorrow in the LP.
Same w/the twist. It's so much better w/Eric and that's all due to the fact he has the power w/both shoulders being in great shape to give Megan that launch into the air she needs. I really think that once they get this first year and getting to "know one another" period over and done w/, then look out!! I see the potential everyone's gushing about and very much am looking forward to the ride they're going to be taking us on the next few years.
One major nitpick though...There is someone who is *very* Geographically Challenged at the CBC, as Scott Russell told all Megan's from Lively, which is close to North Bay. *snort* Not only is it *not* close to North Bay, but it's a suburb of Sudbury!!
Talk about your screw ups...Sheesh!!
Love both Kirsten and Dylan and Paige and Rudi"s programs. Both are brilliantly choreographed to not only make the skaters shine, but to also light up the crowd too. That last lift of Paige and Rudi is something else and if that's a taste to come tomorrow in the LP, I might need to watch it through my fingers as my hands cover my eyes. :wink:
Was also very much impressed by the young US team w/the huuuuuuuge throw and twist. Kurt said she gets so much hang time in the throw, she needs a parachute to help her land. Tracy mentioned also the potential for a quad throw was there and for once, I can buy that. We've heard so much hype about the quad throw over the years, but I think we finally have a pair who, like Shen and Zhao in their prime, has the height needed to get that fourth rev in there. JMO, of course. They also talked about the possiblity of them doing a throw triple axel tomorrow and hope they do go for it.
I miss throw axels and think it a shame that just because the majority of teams can only do doubles is the reason why it's not seen anymore. It's still a tough throw and I wish more would do them. Once again, JMO.
Can't wait for tomorrow!! For a Pairs event where so many teams were a mystery going in, it's certainly proven to be very entertaining.
blue_..umm..I think they just didn't have much makeup on her, and she just has a sort of sallow complexion...She is tiny..hard to say if she's really underweight. I had a friend all through high school, who was about the same build , and just stayed that way for years..( we cursed her because it didn't matter what she ate.. or how much of it.. )
I/M were great. I think this short is a great vehicle for them. I hope they can skate clean in the LP - it would be great for them. They are so inconsistent, but when they are on, they are truly the whole package. For their - and Bazarova/Larionov's - sake, I hope they make the GPF. Making Europeans and Worlds will be very, very hard. Given the scores their competitors got, I almost think they were underscored
Off-topic, but Russian Nationals might just be the best pairs competition this season. Kavaguti/Smirnov, Mukhortova/Blanchard, Volosozhar/Trankov, Bazarova/Larionov, Iliushechkina/Maisuradze, Gerboldt/Enbert, and possibly Stolbova/Klimov....lots of great teams. Shame only 3 will compete internationally. Russia really should have more spots in pairs, just like Japan in singles!
I really like Marissa Castelli. Unfortunately, I don't like her partner, Simon Shnapir. He seems very stiff and has a bad case of airplane arms. I almost wish she could skate with Rockne.
Lawrence and Swiegers were cute, but so cheesy. It's just not my style. A good skate, even if the 3Ts were a mess.
Not very impressed by Moore-Towers/Moscovitch or Duhamel/Radford...yet. I could change my opinion on the latter, because they are so new.
They look really good and so confident! I hope they continue to do well in the long program. I enjoyed watching them last season.

Biden on FDR's management of the 1929 crash; Update: Biden video added
posted at 1:25 pm on September 23, 2008 by Ed Morrissey
Joe Biden continued his one-man Gaffemaster routine last night while being interviewed by Katie Couric at CBS. He attempted to discuss real leadership in the face of financial catastrophe, and reached back to the brilliant example of FDR and his televised speeches during the 1929 stock-market crash. Biden demonstrated the same expert grasp on history as he has on Barack Obama's policies in this election:
Joe Biden's denunciation of his own campaign's ad to Katie Couric got so much attention last night that another odd note in the interview slipped by.
He was speaking about the role of the White House in a financial crisis.
"When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed," Biden told Couric. "He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'"
How ignorant is this statement? Let me count the ways:
- Franklin Roosevelt didn't become president in 1929 during the crash. He won the 1932 election and took office in 1933, largely because of the 1929 crash and the incompetent protectionist policies that transformed it into a Great Depression.
- If FDR and President Herbert Hoover didn't talk about the "princes of greed" in 1929, by the time FDR took over, that kind of populist rhetoric had certainly taken root. FDR greatly escalated the scope of federal government to institute the kind of redistributionism that Obama and Biden now champion.
- If Hoover or FDR appeared on television in 1929 or even 1933, only a few hundred people would have seen it. Television was still an experimental medium and wouldn't be introduced to the public for at least another decade.
FDR started off his long stretch as President with a series of thirty speeches on the radio called "fireside chats" that lasted from 1933-44. He used that to connect on a personal level with ordinary Americans in a manner never before attempted (or even possible). These informal addresses helped float his immense popularity through very troubled times. But it is also incorrect to say that FDR was totally averse to using populism for his purposes, as he did in his conclusion of Fireside Chat #6, when he warned against "that definition of Liberty under which for many years a free people were being gradually regimented into the service of the privileged few." Not coincidentally, that speech came on the eve of his first midterm elections in 1934, and it's generally considered an attack on the business sector for not supporting his reforms.
At any rate, it looks like Biden learned his history from Faber College:

Tower investment boss says he sees signs of "irrational exuberance" from investors.
Tower investment boss Sam Stubbs says there are signs New Zealand is headed for a sharemarket bubble and investors need to be wary of overvalued listed companies.
But others say the warning is wide of the mark and the market continues to be underpinned by growing company earnings and low debt levels.
Last year the sharemarket was up more than 24 per cent - it's best year since 2004. But Stubbs said he was starting to see signs of "irrational exuberance" from investors and a herd mentality - two factors which pointed to a pending bubble.
"We believe there is now potential for a sharemarket bubble."
Bubbles occur when investors drive prices above where a company's value should be, based on a multiple of its earnings.
During the dotcom bubble shares in technology companies soared but then crashed with some businesses collapsing altogether.
Stubbs said the low interest rate environment was driving a change in investor behaviour pushing people to invest in the sharemarket.
"People made money last year so they feel very positive, bringing over-confidence into the markets. We are starting to see the first signs of irrational exuberance."
Stubbs said they were also seeing the herd effect where investors piled into companies which already had high share prices.
"That is very common when you start to see bubbles."
Stubbs said the effect was driven by emotion.
"People think because a stock has a high price it equals high quality."
Tower equities manager Stephen Bennie said about half of the NZX50 was trading on a multiple of 15 times earnings.
He said that level of multiple usually indicated a company was high quality but that was simply not the case for all the companies.
"We have an imbalance."
Bennie warned that when reality hit, the share price of those companies could come back down giving investors a poor return.
But Mark Lister, head of research at Craigs Investment Partners, did not believe the market was headed for a bubble.
"The market has had a great run. Does it look pricey? A little. But not in a major way."
Lister said companies were upbeat about growth in their earnings and had low levels of debt.
The housing market was also starting to pick up.
"All of these fundamental indicators suggest a rally. We are not seeing a bubble."
He said the current price to earnings ratio for the NZX50 was 15.4 times but that was only 10 per cent higher than New Zealand's long-term average of 14 times.
He said he did not believe the sharemarket would be up by as much this year but he did not believe it would start falling.
Since the start of the year the NZX-50 has continued to rise and was up 2.9 per cent as of yesterday's market close.
Hamilton Hindin Green client adviser James Smalley said the market had continued its strong run so far this year and he did not see any signs of a bubble.
Smalley said three factors typically pointed to a bubble - price to earnings ratios well above the historic average, dividend yields that were similar to what savers could get in the bank and a raft of new public listings of poor quality.
"I certainly don't see that happening in this market. What I see is a reflection of the low interest rate environment."
He said investors should look to the earnings season next month where some companies would be asked to justify their strong share price growth and there should be more guidance on where company earnings were going.

Webster is on the downside of his career, no doubt. However his problems this year and the rest of the defensive backfield, for that matter, were totally related to our lack of a pass rush. The Giants have to address the defensive line issues before doing anything else. If we have talent already on the roster, then why are they not playing. Whose fault is that? If it is Coghlan, then that needs to be addressed, first.
There were also some apparent communication breakdowns on defense that didn't help Webster, but as a veteran he should have stepped up. Quarterbacks were targeting him and he was getting burned -- that's where you have to step it up and make a play to stop them from going your way.
Like I said earlier, I'm not yet willing to give up on him, because he's not as bad as he was at times this season.
From what I saw of Corey Webster, it wasn't his cover skills that were the problem. Yes, there were some miscommunications out there. But it seemed to me that in many of the big plays he gave up, he had very tight coverage. It was his ball skills that were horrible. So many times he allowed defenders to catch balls where he had good position.
I have no idea if that's injury related or just a loss of skills due to age.
"Typical Morehead!"..................and he didn't even mean that as a compliment..
I'm still wondering why Prince was relegated to the #2 receiver in man coverage to be completely honest... he was the better CB of the two. Hell even Hosley got better than Corey Toaster by the end of the season.
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.

Changes Need To Be Made
In my book, the Trotz train needs to come to an end. I'm sure a lot of you disagree with me. The fact is he's been here since 1998 and we haven't gotten past the first round of the playoffs. The fact is we are not playing good hockey this year when the expectations coming into this year were as high or higher than they've been since we've gotten here. We're near the bottom of the Western Conference. We've played 21 games. We've won 9. We can all sit here and make excuses about injuries and other factors. The fact is, at some point you have to take responsibility for your team. We've reached that point.
Again, lots of you aren't going to agree. I understand that and respect that. I think a lot of that has to do with comfortability. He's been here 12 years. We're used to seeing his face. And he really is a great guy. A truly fantastic human being. I have nothing against him personally. But his system and style doesn't work. It's just time to change.
7 comments:
I agree. Even if its not getting rid of Trotz the fact is that someone has to be held responsible. The problem is NOBODY is being held responsible. I have always heard that you cannot fire the players well what does that leave. This is the same team that I have watched the last 3 years. I agree that the excuses have to stop. Thank you for not passing around those rose colored glasses!ReplyDelete

The New Zealand International Film Festival is always a great place to check out rising local film-making talent via short films.
This year the festival is offering New Zealand's Best 2012, a collection of six short films.
They have been chosen from 109 applications and will feature in the festival's only competition - a jury will select the winners of the $5000 Madman Entertainment Jury Prize and the $3000 Friends of the Civic Award; and the winner of the audience vote takes away 25 per cent of the box office from the festival screenings.
Among the six, director Campbell Hooper's 43,000 Feet is a unique take on the thoughts of a man falling from that altitude; Night Shift, from writer/director Zia Mandviwalla, tells the heart-wrenching tale of an airport cleaner; Milk & Honey, from writer/director Marina Alofagia, is an eerie recollection of the dawn raids on Pasifika familes in the 1970s; Home, from director Thomas Gleeson, observes a house on a road trip; Ellen Is Leaving, from director Michelle Savill, observes impending traveller Ellen packing and recycling; and Lambs, from writer/director Sam Kelly, is a strong and uncompromising portrait of confusion and tenderness in a tough world.
The New Zealand's Best 2012 collection screens at SkyCity Theatre on Saturday, July 28 at 6.30pm, and again on Monday, July 30 at 2pm.

'Interior of the Horse Armoury', anon engraving, The Penny Magazine, 1836 © Royal Armouries 2013
Armour of William Somerset, used for the figure of Huntingdon from 1827. (II.83)
Shaffron from armour of the Earl of Leicester. About 1575 (VI.49)
Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester was one of the few nobles on display in the Line of Kings who was represented in his own armour.
Dudley was one of the sixteenth century nobles introduced into the Line of Kings in 1827 after the re-display of historic armour. The re-display was co-ordinated by Dr Samuel Meyrick, the appointed armour expert for the job. Previously the Line had consisted solely of monarchs but many kings had been represented in armour not correct to the period in which they lived. Meyrick sought to amend these 'false representations' and he added figures of nobles in period-correct suits of armour to the Line.
These nobles were sometimes used to stand in for monarchs who could not be represented, notably the female monarchs. Lord Hastings represented the reign of Mary Tudor, and Dudley was seen as the perfect representation for Queen Elizabeth I.
Robert Dudley was a long-term favourite of the Queen, a relationship that began to attract comment from April 1559 when it was seen as a barrier to Elizabeth marrying anyone else. It is unknown if the two were ever lovers, but Dudley married twice, the first marriage took place in 1550 and the second in 1578. Dudley had a varied career, greatly assisted by his relationship with the Queen. The fact that the Board of Ordnance had within the collection a suit of armour formerly belonging to Dudley presented Meyrick with a great opportunity.
When the nobles were introduced in 1827, the Tower of London guidebook for that year described Dudley's armour as being covered with his initials in some places and the collar of the garter in others, it also had the figure of St Michael and the Earl's badge of the ragged staff.
In 1842 the ownership of the suit of armour was underlined by the Tower of London guidebook stating:
'This splendid tournament suit is allowed, beyond doubt, to have belonged to the celebrated court favourite whose name is attached to it; originally it was gilt: the square-toed solleret is abandoned, and the round-toed is adopted. This suit weighs about 87lbs.'
Perhaps due to the fact that the armour was known to belong to Dudley, coupled with his connection to one of the most popular and celebrated queens to reign over England, Dudley's armour continued to be displayed in the Horse Armoury into the twentieth century, even after other nobles had been removed.
A figure of Elizabeth I was made to represent the Queen in 1778, but this was never included in the Line of Kings and instead was associated with the display called the Spanish Armoury, said to contain the torture implements found on the ships of the Spanish Armada.
Later Elizabeth's figure was installed in the White Tower as displays changed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The wooden head of Elizabeth I was eventually transferred to the Museum of London and has since returned on loan to the Royal Armouries for display in the White Tower again. Dudley's armour is now on display at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds.

Giants all the way. I want to see Bonds win completing his career as one of the greatest ever to play, and with a World Series ring.
I hate Bonds!! I think he uses steroids and has a bad attitude, so even though I am not going to bother watching and I don't particularly like the Angels, I am hoping they win.

The winners placing in the top four or twelve in their respective divisions came from a remarkable eighteen states and one Canadian province. While winners came from coast-to-coast, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania lead the way with over half of the top scores.
Entries in for the 81st annual contest came from every U.S. state except New Mexico. Judges from Canada, Australia, Belize, Malta, New Zealand, and Turkmenistan also placed all five classes.
Charlie Hamilton, Jr Division winner and Steve Quanz, Sr Division winner
With a 490, SUNY-Cobleskill freshman Steve Quanz topped all competitors with his placings entered as part of the college judging team headed up by John Tyron. Quanz competed on the Steuben County 4-H dairy judging team coached by Don Bossard. Last fall, Quanz represented the New York state 4-H team at the Louisville, Ky., contest. He will compete on his college's judging team this autumn. The Wayland, N.Y., native would like to one day teach animal science at the college level and have a dairy and livestock farm on the side.
In second, with a 488, is Evie Hamilton of Cuba City, Wis. Hamilton owns Hill-Ton Holsteins with her husband, John, and son Charlie. Evie was an honor student at Southwest Tech and holds a degree in agriculture production and services. The Hamilton's 65 registered Holsteins average 26,788 M, 1,053 F, and 783 P. They have received the Progressive Breeder of Registry Award from Holstein USA for the past 17 years and were honored with the Herd of Excellence Award by the national association in 2008. Evie, John, and Charlie have bred or developed over 40 Excellent cows, 16 Gold Medal Dams, and over 20 cows with 200,000 lifetime.
Linda Mann's correct selection of the Reserve Supreme Champion put her in third place over the next two individuals with 484s. Mann, who hails from Franklin, Ind., helps coach the Franklin Community High School FFA dairy judging team.
Brice Titus and Kristie Maynard were in a two-way tie for fourth and fifth place at 484 and selected the same Supreme Champion. After ranking the cows in each class on the five major breakdowns, Titus came in fourth.
Brice Titus has been entering the Hoard's Dairyman Cow Judging Contest every year since he was 7 years old. The now 21-year-old Ferndale, Calif., high school graduate was on the high school's dairy judging team throughout high school. Today, he works at Miranda Dairy and also raises registered Jerseys.
Kristie Maynard, the club leader for the 21-member Pleasant Busy Bees 4-H Club of Houston, Minn., took fifth place. Maynard has participated in the Hoard's Contest since she was in 4-H when her mom, the club leader, would bring contest materials to meetings. The University of Wisconsin-Platteville graduate grew up on her family's dairy farm, and now her children show cattle from the dairy.
Charlie Hamilton's selection of the Reserve Supreme Champion broke a first-place tie at 490. Hamilton, a 15-year-old Cuba City, Wis., freshman with a 4.0 GPA, is the son of John and Evie (who was second in the senior division). He entered the contest as part of his FFA class led by Jill Van Schyndle. Charlie was named a 2010 Young Distinguished Junior Member Finalist by Holstein Association USA. He is president of his 4-H club and secretary of both the FFA chapter and the Grant County Junior Holstein Association. He is very active on 4-H and FFA dairy judging teams. An avid speaker and writer, Charlie won the Holstein USA's 2009 public speaking contest and took first place in this year's online essay contest.
Watertown Lucky Clovers 4-H'er Jolee Miller took second place. The 10-year-old daughter of Kristin and Jeff Miller of Watertown, Wis., Jolee is a fifth grader at Webster Elementary School. Miller credits her club leader, Bill Uecker, for teaching her how to evaluate dairy cows. She looks forward to showing her first calf at the Jefferson County Fair this summer.
In third is Jaclyn Thompson, the 14-year-old daughter of Robin and John Thompson, Pulaski, Pa. She has been entering our contest the past six years as a member of the Sway 4-H Dairy Club led by David Wilson. The Wilmington Area High School freshman lives on her family's 220-acre dairy and swine farm. They milk 50 registered Holsteins and Brown Swiss, raise 50 replacements, and have a 100-sow farrow-to-finish operation. Thompson is a majorette in her high school band and would like to go into veterinary medicine after high school.
A three-way tie between classmates in Doug Raymaker's agriculture class at Bonduel High School was broken by the previously mentioned tiebreakers involving the five descriptive scorecard breakdowns.
Taking fourth was Austin Henn, the 17-year-old son of Thomas and Linda Henn who farm near Bonduel, Wis. A long-time 4-H and FFA member, Henn enjoys showing at both the county and state fair. This high school junior would like to be a police officer one day.
In fifth is Bonduel junior Amber Cina. She is a member of the school's FFA dairy judging team that has competed at district, state, and national contests. Cina is the 17-year-old daughter of Greg and Deb Tauchen. Cina's stepfather, Greg, is co-owner of Tauchen Harmony Valley Dairy. After high school, she would like to attend the University of Wisconsin-River Falls and major in ag business and dairy science.
With a 468, Michael and Sara Lewis, and their children, Madison and Aidan, won the family division. Both Michael and Sara grew up on dairy farms and continue to help on those operations. Michael also works in sales at Farm-Way, Inc. The family's interest in dairy judging took root last year when daughter Madison began her 4-H dairy project. Both Michael and Sara, who met in high school, are 4-H volunteers.
The Dale and Cheryl Urbanek Family of Cashton, Wis., took second by less than one point over the third and fourth place families. Dale and Cheryl represent the fifth generation while children Ryan, Casey, and Carrie are the sixth generation to operate the family dairy farm which dates back to 1870. They milk 70 Holsteins and one Guernsey. Casey and Carrie are members of the LaCrosse County 4-H dairy judging team led by Don Langrehr and Jenny Clark. The Cashton High School freshmen are also on the FFA dairy judging team.
A tie between third and fourth place at 464 points was broken based on the selection of Supreme Champion. Craig and Marlene Krohlow and their sons, Travis and Ryan, took third place. The family has been entering the contest for the past 20 years. Craig has judged numerous county fairs and has been a coach for local 4-H and FFA dairy judging teams. They farm 300 acres and have 45 registered Holsteins that average 23,500 M, 940 F, and 729 P with a 112.9 BAA. Craig also is an aAa analyzer, while sons Ryan and Travis are cattle fitters.
In fourth place was the Mark and Elisha Iager Family of Woodbine, Md. Mark manages the dairy and crop operations at Maple Lawn Farms, Inc., Fulton, Md., and has judged local, county, and state shows. He was the high individual of the 1992 National 4-H Dairy Cattle Judging Contest. Today, Mark and Elisha's three children, Madison, Miranda, and Harrison, participate in 4-H dairy, livestock, and equine projects. As a tribute to her brother who died in a farming accident, Elisha started the Harrison Mule Days and has a website for the event: www.harrisonmuledays.com
Ag instructors
JoAnn Peterson has been participating in the Hoard's Dairyman Cow Judging Contest for the past eight years, and her 470 topped the division. The Argyle, Wis., teacher received an agriculture education degree from the University of Wisconsin-Platteville and also studied at CAH-Dronten in the Netherlands for a semester. She grew up on a 500-acre farm near Mazomanie, Wis., that milked 90 Holsteins. In college, she took dairy evaluation with Michael Mee.
Jake Cramer, Janesville, Wis., returns to the winner circle for the third time. In 2006, Cramer placed third overall in the senior division and was fourth in the instructor division two years ago. The University of Wisconsin-River Falls graduate grew up on a Jefferson County dairy farm and showed at state and national Holstein shows as a youth. He still owns some dairy cattle. The Janesville Parker ag instructor was the 2004-2005 Wisconsin State FFA Sentinel. Currently, Cramer is working on his master's degree at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in environmental education.
In third is Fort Atkinson FFA instructor Steven Merkel. He has been using the contest for the past 15 years as an educational tool in his classroom and was honorable mention in the ag instructor division in 2008. Prior to teaching, Merkel spent 14 years working with dairy producers as a nutritionist. He earned his undergraduate degree at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls in agriculture education and followed that with a master's from the University of Wisconsin-Stout in technology and industrial education.
Taking fourth was Illinois State University graduate Darren Ropp who now teaches at Prairie Central High School in Fairbury, Ill. Ropp's Prairie Central FFA dairy judging team took top honors at the 2009 National FFA Dairy Judging Contest. He was raised on a 100-cow Jersey farm and now helps with dairy projects for daughters Samantha, Savannah, and Sadie who show at county, state, and national shows.
For 10 of the past 15 years, the Marshfield FFA has placed at least honorable mention in the FFA/Ag-Ed Division. This year's score of 459.3 placed them in the winner's circle. The school is located in one of the nation's most densely populated dairy areas with students coming from central Wisconsin's Wood, Clark, and Marathon Counties. The Marshfield High School Agriculture Department was named an Outstanding Middle-High School Agriculture Program in Wisconsin for 2002 and 2009. They won the same award on the national level in 2009. As a youth, FFA advisor Tim Heeg received All-American honors by placing in the top 25 individuals at both the National 4-H and National Intercollegiate Dairy Judging Contests at World Dairy Expo.
Claiming second was the Mississinawa Valley High School from Union City, Ohio. The team was lead by ag instructor Stephanie Conway. Led by instructor Steve Zibell, third place was captured by Wisconsin's Oregon High School. And rounding out the top four was the Winona FFA from Fitchburg, Wis. The team is coached by Leah and Londa Johnson.
The Loudoun County 4-H Dairy Club claimed their third title in the Hoard's Contest by scoring a 478. Previous wins took place in 1997 and 2005. Club leader Nancy Potts reports 4-H'ers range from first- to 10-year members. Last year, one club member was on the Virginia state 4-H team that placed third at the National 4-H Contest at World Dairy Expo. Once a thriving dairy county, today Loudoun County has only one dairy farm. Two club members own calves and offer them to club members without calves. The club also is active in judging, quiz bowl, and community service projects.
A tie at 466 was broken by previously mentioned tiebreakers involving the five descriptive scorecard breakdowns. In the end, The Rolling Clovers 4-H Club of Westminster, Md., led by Sandra Stonesifer placed second. Led by Pat Pehrson, the third place 4-H team was Nicollet County 4-H of St. Peter, Minn. Rounding out the top four was the Friendly Valley 4-H club of Brillion, Wis. The club is led by Lyle Ott.
The University of Minnesota dominated the college ranks by placing first, second, third, and receiving six honorable mentions among the 95 entries in the division. The top three teams included students who are enrolled in Introduction to Animal Science. The Tony Seykora-coached teams had scores of 474, 464, and 460. In fourth, with a 457, was a Kansas State University team coached by Jon Pretz.
The winning co-op entry came from Dairy Farmers of America Team Number 1. The co-op with 9,500 member farms was formed in 1998 and has been entering our contest every year. For the second year in a row, the winning team was lead by Greg Mitchell.
Supreme Champion
XANADU CHAMPION KANDY KISS EX 94 was named the unanimous Supreme Champion by our judges. Owned by Ben Sauder of Tremont, Ill., she was the 2009 Supreme Champion of World Dairy Expo's junior show and was Reserve All American 5-year-old at the All American Jersey Show in Louisville, Ky., later that fall. The Jersey from River Valley Dairy has an EX 92 dam and an EX 95 granddam. Reserve Supreme Champion was Cook-Farm Out Jennifer-ET EX 90.

Results from a recent study that lasted more than 25 years and involved more than 80,000 women ages 30 to 55 revealed that those who eat a lot of red meat—along with processed meats and high-fat dairy products—have a higher risk of developing heart disease.
Specifically, said researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, women who consume a diet high in red meat experience more heart attacks and have a higher death rate from heart disease when compared with those who tend to consume leaner protein sources such as fish, poultry, nuts and low-fat dairy products.
The data confirm previous findings about the relationship between diet and heart disease, and scientists hope that more studies like this one will increase awareness about the importance of developing healthy eating habits. Among the recommendations were simple changes such as swapping ham and cheese for a peanut butter and banana sandwich, and opting for veggie burgers instead of beef.
In addition to promoting heart health, a diet that includes plenty of lean protein sources as well as fiber-rich fruits, nuts, vegetables and whole grains has been shown to support optimal weight management and healthy blood sugar, both of which may help combat the high rates of obesity and obesity-related disease so prominent in the United States.

Horsemeat in Irish burgers
Hi all, and all the best for 2013
I just thought I'd say my tuppenceworth about the lastest scandal on Irish food, namely, horsemeat DNA found in frozen burgers in Irish foodchains, i.e., de BIG supermarkets - won't mention any names here, but you know what I mean
For a start, I don't eat "junk" food, but I think the real discussion should be about what's really in these "cheapo" frozen hamburgers, e.g., sawdust etc ... which is really much more harmful to one's health than horsemeat and which is eaten quite regularly in other cultures.
I'll drop by again to read any responses to this post. Sorry, if its already been mentioned, but I didn't see it.

Re: Horsemeat in Irish burgers
Hi Leslley-M. I don't think anyone has suggested that horsemeat is harmful to humans, rather that it's a cultural thing. The British just find it unacceptabled, generally, to want to eat it. I know it was widely available during WW2, as was whale meat, etc. Since then, however, it's been off the menu.
Is sawdust really detrimental to our health? Guinea pigs seem to manage on it ok, lol.
Do drop in again. Good to see you.

Re: Horsemeat in Irish burgers
I have no problem whatsoever with horse meat. Tasty but a little tougher than beef in my experience. But we really should know what we are eating.
(or be informed is what I meant)

Re: Horsemeat in Irish burgers
Hi guys, thanks for your responses.
Its not the horsemeat or sawdust that's the problem, its the fact that other "stuff" that really threatens our health, which is effectiely allowed by our "Authorities" in our general food supply that concerns me. No mention of all that crap, e.g., toxic fertilisers and antibiotics etc...
Like a lot of other people, I'm well aware that those appointed to regulate the Food Industry etc., are far more concerned about their Image than they are about the health and welfare of the general public. Big Bucks Profit is their "bottom line". In that goal, they don't care what harm or damage they do to the consumers of their products.
I'm going off now to make a nice lunch of weeds and snails

Re: Horsemeat in Irish burgers
Indeed Lesley-M, the supermarkets are, in my opinion, far too powerful, that combined with all the ready meals/processed food they sell (To a seemingly unaware or don't really care public) is a sure recipe for disaster..
Just take severe allergy as an example..Horse protein is different to cow protein, so some-one with a Horse meat allergy could easily have had a severe reaction to those so-callled "beef" burgers....

My interest in this topic is primarily due to my love of nutritiion. But, is mainly driven by the fact that I was randomly poisoned by a highly toxic pesticide in a cucumber more than 20 years ago - an event which almost killed me and which had a profoundly detrimental effect on my young daughter at the time ...
So naturally, I don't trust the Irish Food-Safety Authoritiy people , not least the Irish Authorities, per se. None of them have given me any reason why I (for one) should trust any of them.
I reckon my late father was right when he would say: "If you want to known what's going on in the world, read the Financial Times". In other words, if we humans are mere commodities to those in power, then ignore those guys - whether they are male or female

Re: Horsemeat in Irish burgers
Hi ... My daughter ate a tesco burger and within 6 minutes she was in acute severe anaphylaxis shock. She was rushed to intensive care and the doctors where unsure if she would even make it through the night. She survived thank God. I mentioned to the doctors at the time that all she had was a burger. They didn't really find out what happened to her that night. Ran tests and said she's highly allergic to a lot of things. When this burger scandal came out I just knew she nearly died because of that. She can't even go near a horse never mind consume its flesh. I'm sickened that this could have possibly ended her life. We live in Dublin.

Re: Horsemeat in Irish burgers
I think the real issue is, the burgers were beef burgers and not Beef/Horse Burgers.
The fact that horse had got in askes questions on what else could have got in?
Can we really trust companies that put horse in to beef burgers cattle that have died from illness or accident in to it? If they had been doing that we wouldn't know by DNA tests.

|They're even building up everywhere along Rt. 23 up in the Suffern/Vernon area. It's crazy. We're not going to have any trees left in 15-20 years.
Within the next 10 years, NJ will be the most developed state in the country. Every piece of land in the state that can be developed, will be developed.
Sam, they are building in areas you wouldn't believe. All of the area in West Paterson where Rt.46 and Rt.3 meet, by the Log Cabin bar has been cut down for development. Do you remember the old abandoned Sam Braen's quarry in North Haledon? They blasted out what they could to build luxury condos. Starting price? $690K. Ah! Here's one for you! Remember the intersection of Alps and Ratzer Road, by the Paris inn? They blasted down the rock cliff to build homes!

Originally Posted by aeternum23

First off, the traffic here is the WORST I have ever been in. It takes me an hour to move 5 miles on the highway during rushhour. Let's not even get into El Toro and Moulton.
Second, eveyone here is so quick to judge everyone else. I sometimes make late-night runs to the local Ralph's and usually just wear my PJ's, aka sweats, sandals, and a t-shirt. But man the way people look at me, you'd think I was from Mars.
It's like everyone has to look a certain way, or else you're some sort of freak. And then there are those who try to show they're not part of the clique by being part of another click, lol.
Third, it's all about the Green down in OC. When I lived in San Diego or the Bay Area, my coworkers and I went out after work on a regular basis. We'd hit a bar, the movies, a restaurant, whatever. Here, no one does that, and I'm still working for the same company! Everyone either stays late or goes straight home. It's like they don't want to know you, they're just here to work and make dough.
Fourth, for some reason, no one likes to say "Hi" to strangers or people they meet. Call it friendliness or common courtesy, but when I first moved down here, I used to say "Hi" or "How're you doing" if I passed someone on the sidewalk. Only once did I ever receive a response. Most of the times, the person just ignored me, some people actually tried to avoid me.
Fifth, cost of living. I don't know HOW the average American can afford to live in this place. I remember talking to a coworker from Tacoma during a company-wide meeting. He's about my age, 25, and just bought an acre plot of land with a 15 year old ranch house on it for $150,000. First off, I don't think there are any residential zones in So Cal that can afford a single plot of land that large. Secondly, if there were, I'm sure they'd be going for well over $1 million each. Ironically enough, I remember him telling me "Yea, I'm not sure how you people make it down here".
Sixth, let's go back to traffic for a moment. Like I said, I've lived all up and down California and have driven in pretty much every part of the state. But Orange County is the only place I have ever seen someone changing their clothes WHILST driving! It's not like I was trying to look, but you can't help but notice when they almost sideswipe your car. Also, I once handled an auto accident that was part of a freak "group" of accidents in one intersection. Apparently, three separate accidents occured, one right after another and all with different vehicles. I'll never forget the police report on that one, "Driver A was on their cell phone...Driver B was on their cell phone..."
I don't know about anyone else, but between being socially ostracized and/or getting into an accident with a naked man, living in OC is pretty stressful to me.

Interesting thread that I just happened to stummble upon.
I used to live in Tacoma, WA, ranked #1 on the list meaning it is the most stressful city. I could agree with that. I was only a kid then but some of the most reoccurring remembrances were the neighbors arguing, the school bus driver yelling at us, and a few occurrences of road rage. Oh, the drive to Seattle is terrible!
Now I live Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN, which is 96th/100th, meaning very low stress. I couldn't agree anymore. People here are very friendly to each other; outta state folks call it "Minnesota-Nice" I guess. Last winter the car slipped off the road in two occurrences and in a about 10 minutes there's someone there to give you a lift. Traffic isn't too bad. It gets crowded at rush hour but no one ever drives recklessly or cuts you off. If there's anything I'm annoyed by, it's everyone driving the speed limit. I dunno, must be in the extremely hard water or the really cold winters. The only time people get rowdy is at a Packers-Vikings game.
I've also heard Minneapolis called the most literate, most healthy (I think), and most fun city to live in the US. Fun might be a stretch though.
|George Willms
Anyone every driven through Maryland, sheesh! I've been run right off the road by people who just had to change lanes RIGHT NOW even though there was a car right next to them.
And here's a NJ driving story: I'm driving on 80 one day in the middle lane and this woman is getting on the entrance ramp. There is nobody in the right lae in front of her, but she cuts me off to get into the middle lane for no reason. I honk my horn at her and she gives me the finger! I was like WTF you cut me off FU! Stupid drivers. We need to incorporate more agressive licensing laws in this country, make it a privilege to drive and not a right. Some people that drive are an endangerment to everyone else on the road and should not be out there.

It really annoys me when I get cut off buy a slow driver because he "just wants to be in that lane now" eventhough his lane was moving just fine :roll:
Ok. I saw something on the news about this. This poll was based on suicide rates, unemployment and "gloomy weather".
Sounds to me like they have discovered the most depressed (mentally) areas of the country, not the most stressed!

I have a tree outside my home that is most unusual. It is a big tree (oak tree sized) with leaves that are a mix of green and white, similar to what you'd see on some house plants. But some branches have leaves that are only green. Then there are some new small branches coming off of the trunk that have leaves are are only white! The seeds remind me of maple tree seeds. Anyone have an idea of what this tree is? (See attached photo)

Choreography by: Jerome Robbins
Music by: Igor Stravinsky
The Cage plunges into the world of natural selection, using Stravinsky's daring score to depict the feral instinct compelling the female of an insect species to consider its male counterpart as prey.
Stravinsky composed his Concerto in D for String Orchestra in 1946, as a commission for the 20th anniversary of the Basler Orchestra; it was his first work for string orchestra since Apollon Musagète. The vivid, haunting composition features a shift between D major and minor throughout the work and a rich quality for the writing of the strings. Jerome Robbins used Stravinksy's concerto for one of his early works, The Cage, which imagines a community of female creatures. In describing the ballet, Robbins said, "I did not have to confine myself to human beings moving in a way that we know is human. In the way their fingers worked, in the crouch of a body or the thrust of an arm, I could let myself see what I wanted to imagine."

In the bedroom you have two single beds. There is also a common kitchen which is fully equipped with all necessary devices to prepare a tasty meal.
The apartment is located in the Neukölln district. Like the neighbouring Kreuzberg, Neukölln used to be on the edge of West Berlin while the city was divided. As Neukölln was known for its low rents it attracted many immigrants: thus it got a special multicultural flair. After the reunification, the district suddenly became more central and very popular among students and young people. The alternative subculture of Kreuzberg reached the north of Neukölln little by little. After Tempelhof Airport was closed, the area is no longer noisy.
Within a few years, Neukölln became one of the trendiest places in Berlin: it offers international cuisine, cafés and bars where you can afford to go even with low budgets. The clubs in Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain are easily accessible by public transport. The border area between Kreuzberg and Hermannplatz is known as 'Kreuzkölln'.The area has good transport links. The underground line U7 leads directly to Kreuzberg, the U8 to Kreuzberg and to Mitte. The train (S-Bahn) lines S41 and S42 connect the neighborhood with Friedrichshain and Prenzlauer Berg.

Reviews of this property
The apartment is big, very clean and with 3 large bathrooms. The room is cozy and the bed is very comfortable. Kitchen well equipped, with new pots.
Well located, 5 minutes to main bus/metro stops.
The only problem is with wifi, that in room n.1 doesn't work, then I had to use it in the kitchen or in the rest of the apartment.
We had a great chamber Jörg! The owner is very helpful and the house is in a great location. Heated room and very clean. We recommend to everyone!
Ci siamo trovati benissimo nella camera di Jörg! Il proprietario è molto disponibile e la casa si trova in un'ottima posizione. Camera riscaldata e molto pulita. Consigliamo a tutti!
I booked a room in Jorg's appartment for last jannuary but due to a crash I had to postpone my trip in Berlin few days before departure. Jorg has been really nice in accepting my proposal without any additional cost. the room is nice, well positioned and clean. I definitely suggest it!
I liked it very well with Jörg. The accommodation is very comfortable, with excellent sanitary facilities, a very beautiful and cozy kitchen and four bedrooms. Here you have the opportunity to learn about the diverse and very nice people from many countries. Thank you, Dirk.

The water monitor is an extremely large lizard — some individuals reach 10 feet in length, although most adults only grow to about 5 feet long. All monitors have forked tongues, making them the only reptiles other than snakes to posses this characteristic. Like snakes, this tongue lets them locate their prey through its scent.
In their native, near-water habitats throughout southern Asia, water monitors eat just about anything — insects, crabs, birds and eggs, fishes, amphibians, small mammals and even other reptiles and reptile eggs. When threatened, water monitors can climb trees to escape dangers such as large predatory snakes.
Although not endangered or threatened, water monitors are hunted for their meat and skin, which is often used in leather goods. There is a small trade in water monitors for the live animal trade, although they grow too large for most pet owners.
Get to know our water monitor and other extraordinary animal ambassadors at Animal Connections.
Q: Where are water monitors found?
SW: Water monitors live close to water in marshes and riverbanks throughout much of southern Asia, from India in the west to the Philippines and the Indo-Australian islands in the east. Their ability to swim in seawater has allowed them to colonize islands.
Q: How many eggs do females lay?
SW: Female water monitors lay 5 to 22 eggs per clutch in a termite mound, rotting or hollowed-out log, or burrow. The eggs hatch after about 200 to 330 days, although this can vary due to incubation conditions such as nest temperature.

So there I was over at my buddy's father's house helping the old man move. Spent good part of the day packing and stacking. Then at the end of the day my buddys dad turns to me and says.
"hey you like guns and I don't have need of these parts and reloading equipment so take them home" I was very greatful as my buddy doesn't shoot so he didn't need the stuff and the old man didn't want to throw out the parts.
Reloading equipment was old but more the marer I always say. Then he hands me a box of parts
A complete minus buttstock Belgian G1 parts kit, All parts are stamped FN and the barrel has a beautiful belgian crown stamping on it and the bore is perfect.
So I started putting her together this morning on a DCI receiver....shes ugly now but soon will be beautiful again.
Next step finding a good wooden buttstock and then getting her parked....

Reviews of this property
I enjoyed staying at Yolaines place.
The spacious room has a private bath and private entrance,
is clean and well located. Good stay.
I would recommend it.
We had a very comfortable stay at Yolaine's apartment. Yolaine took the time to sit with us on the balcony upon our arrival to get to know us and offer suggestions for things to do while in Berlin. Groceries as well as restaurants were close by as well as the S-Bahn and U-Bahn which offered fast and direct service to both West and East city centers. I would highly recommend Yolaine for a comfortable and private place to stay in Berlin.
Great stay! The location is great, very close to the city center. Yolaine had everything ready for us when we arrived and check in/out was very easy.
We would definitely stay here again on a visit to Berlin.
Very nice host, very helpful and a room really confortable and close to the city centre. A really good experience .
We stayed at Yolaine's French Charm Room, and we really enjoyed it!
We had our own entrance and our own bathroom. It was perfect!
Yolaine is really good and nice to talk to, and she helped us finding out where to go and what to see. We sad at her balcony, we talked about Berlin and had a cop of coffee together. Very nice!
The room is in walking distence of everything there is to see in Berlin! We really enjoyed our time in Berlin! We are looking very much forward to come back :-)
Mads and Nanna, Dennark
We quite enjoyed staying there at Yolaine's as a couple and even slept well in this kind of bed. She is a very friendly and smart person with great hospitality and good knowledge about the interessting city. We would always come back if there'll happen another trip to Berlin. Her flat and the quarter of Moabit is very typical & classical Berlin style and relatively near the center to reach. Thanks a lot, Helga & Thomas from Hamburg
If you are spending some days in Berlin, this will be your best choice.
The room will feel like home and you just have to knock and open the door to meet the fabulous Yolaine. She will always be happy to inform you of the events and great places to visit in Berlin. We realy liked having our own bathroom, just like a hotel (but better). Everything has been perfect here.
The room was simple, but gut.gelegen. A beautiful new bathroom, which was used only by me, has all rounded. The private entrance was great. Technikfreeks should know that there is no TV, but a very nice hostess.
Das Zimmer war einfach, aber gut.gelegen. Ein schönes neues Badezimmer, das nur von mir benutzt wurde, hat alles abgerundet. Der eigene Eingang war auch super. Technikfreeks sollten wissen, dass es keinen Fernseher gibt, aber dafür eine sehr nette Gastgeberin.

text: ok i figured i should post this because it took me a few months to find out the correct information on this, had some problems with my speakers after buying my silvy returned it to the dealership they fixed it, noticed about a month later that my inside rear door handle didnt work, something with the linkage, also noticed the other side rear window button wasn't getting any power. i got an estimate for the repairs 300+ the only reason i couldnt fix it is because i couldnt remove the door panel because there was a special flat screw type of deal holding the plastic handle to the door. for all those having this issue in order to remove the door handle to take off the panel use a small screw driver like a flat Eye glass screwdriver wedge it up on the side of that flat screw looking thing at the bottom of the door handle and pry downward, the bolt is on a spring you only need to pull it down about a 1/4 inch then the handle should slide off, i spent so much time trying to figure it out. hope this helps someone else

Have any of you ever used wax from here ? I bought some to make some waterproofing mix's but I can't keep it all mixed, I keep getting little pieces that separate out and can't get any mixed consistency, and when the melted wax sets up it gets hard enough you can barely cut it, Im wondering if maybe it's not straight beeswax ??
Thanks in advance for any response

Occupy Our Elections… Elect Democracy
Posted by Hillary V Lehr in Elect Democracy, Featured, People Power, Not Corporate Power on 8th May, 2012 | 3 Comments
How do we create a system where it actually matters who you vote for?
We need to Occupy Our Elections in order to approach having the real ability to Elect Democracy. We should engage with and impact elections by providing systemic analysis and exposing the impact of big bank campaign contributions, corporate lobbying, and general ALEC-type corruption and collusion. Meanwhile, we can also simultaneously be creating new methods of meeting the needs of the 99%. It's time to show the 1% what real democracy actually looks like.

Female HIV Patients in Taiwan Face Great Pressure
April 8, 2013
According to the Taiwan Lourdes Association, female HIV patients in Taiwan experience greater stigmatization and discrimination than male HIV patients in the country, with many of them forced to give up normal lives. The association noted that a survey conducted with nine women revealed that, although they may be their family's main income-earners, once they were diagnosed with HIV their family ignored their contributions. Cheng Shu-hsing, head of the Department of Infectious Diseases for Taoyuan General Hospital, said that many HIV-infected Taiwanese women are discouraged from bearing children, although there are medical services available to assist HIV-positive patients in giving birth to healthy infants. As of the end of February 2013, Taiwan had 1,714 recorded cases of HIV-infected women.

Gormless Morgan
this wiki
Gormless Morgan was the primary character of Miranda Goshawk's poem "The Rhyme of Gormless Morgan". As with all of the characters in these poems, he was based on a real wizard, with his name changed to protect his identity. Morgan was a magical creature hunter who was hired to capture the Gorgon, but failed due to his inability to come up with a decent plan, despite his friends' advice.
According to Goshawk's "Afterword", the traits Morgan lacked were cunning and shrewdness.
The wizard Gormless Morgan was based on was a magical creature hunter of some form. At a young age, his boss gave him the task of capturing the Gorgon, who had turned a number of men who had ventured into her domain into stone statues.
Though both his boss and his friends advised that Morgan take a while and think up a good plan to tackle the Gorgon so that he would not be petrified himself, Morgan ignored their advice. He thought that sneaking up behind her and trapping her in a truss would be a good enough plan.
When he went to enact his plan, however, he found that the Gorgon owned a mirror, which she used for the express purpose of guarding against anyone that may try to sneak up behind her. When their eyes met in the mirror, Morgan was immediately Petrified, thus failing in his task. It is unknown if Morgan was ever able to be rescued from his fate and given an antidote such as a Mandrake Restorative Draught.
Behind the scenes
- Given that Morgan apparently had the job of catching magical creatures, it is possible he worked for the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures, or, in the case that he was not a British wizard, whatever the equivalent in his home country's government was.

Police: Jealous ex-boyfriend tries to catch apartment on fire
MOREHEAD CITY - A Carteret County man was arrested Saturday for allegedly trying to set an apartment his ex-girlfriend was in on fire.
Police said 32-year-old Justin Joyner was arrested Saturday and charged with arson and burglary for setting an apartment on fire on October 27. Police said it happened at 1:30 a.m. at an apartment complex off Mayberry Loop Road in Morehead City. The fire started on a plant just inside the apartment by a window. Police said Joyner cut the screen to the window and lit the plant on fire. The fire spread to the drapes around the windows.
Four people were inside the home at the time. Amanda Russell, Alison Swindell and her boyfriend, and another man. Russell and the man were in the living room and noticed the drapes on fire. It was quickly put out. Police said Joyner is Russell's ex-boyfriend and that they broke up less than a week before the alleged arson.
Russell said Joyner is dangerous.
"He's got the mentality of someone who would actually hurt somebody bad," Russell said.
Police investigated the fire for a week before making the arrest. Police said they used state of the art technology and detective work to put together their case.
"Everything fell right into place, the domestic being the cause of the break up, him being jealous," Morehead City Police detective Nat Festerman said, "It all started lining up. We just went step by step."
Russell said Joyner confessed to her that he set the apartment on fire.
"I hope. We've got the confession and like I said, nobody around here will have his back," Russell said about convicting Joyner.
