Checklist for Parents
High school preparation is important for a Mines education. To help you encourage and support your high school student, we've put together a timeline of information that we hope is helpful to you as parents. As your student goes through the college admissions process, our expectation is that he or she will be the active participant communicating with Colorado School of Mines, sharing information with you along the way. As parents, we understand that you will be there to communicate with them and guide their efforts, while allowing them the opportunity to become more independent as college students.
Sophomore and Junior Year - Visit Mines
One of the best ways to explore opportunities is to visit campus with your high school student. We offer official visits that include a tour with a Student Ambassador, followed by an advising session with the Admissions Office. After a visit, your student will know if Mines is the right fit and, if so, will be prepared for the application process.
We welcome you to join your student during the admissions visit, as long as your he or she has no objections. Student and parent questions can be both similar and different. We hope to address all your questions during the advising session.
Senior Year, Fall Semester - Apply Online for Free
There is no application deadline, but we encourage students to apply online in the fall semester of their senior year, after the completion of all standardized testing. Senior scores are usually the most competitive scores on the application, so we suggest prospective students plan to take the ACT or SAT as a senior (September or October is the best time for the admissions cycle).
At Mines, admissions is highly selective and we base evaluation on your academic performance, ACT or SAT scores, high school or college courses. High school students should apply early in the fall of their senior year. Online applications are free. Paper applications require a $45 application fee.
Recommendation letters and resumes are not required. Unless we have requested this information for a specific reason, there is no need to submit these items. Students do have the opportunity to list special awards, achievements, or activities and we highly recommend they complete the optional personal statement on "why they want to attend Mines".
For all questions regarding the application process, please review our New Freshman Admissions page with Frequently Asked Questions.
Senior Year, Fall Semester - Decision letters
As early as October, the Admissions Office will begin sending decision letters to your student. The letter will indicate if he or she is admitted to Mines, needs to submit additional information (for example, a senior test score or the 7th semester high school transcript), or is denied admission.
If your student has questions about an admission decision, encourage him or her to contact us for a personal discussion.
Senior Year, January/February - Apply for Financial Aid
The earliest you and your student may apply for financial aid is after January 1 of the senior year. This is an important step in the process. We recommend all students apply for financial aid, regardless of expectations. Financial aid includes grant money, work study funding and student loans. For more details, including deadlines and tips for filing, visit Financial Aid.
Senior Year, January through March - Mines Scholarships
From January 1 through March 1, the Financial Aid Office will review all admitted students for merit scholarship awards. If your son or daughter qualifies for a merit scholarship, based on unweighted GPA and standardized test scores, a scholarship letter will be mailed. Scholarship awards are typically mailed by March 1, and admitted students will be notified either way.
Senior Year, Spring Semester (Sign-up Starts May 1) - Apply for Housing
All new, undergraduate students enrolling at Mines for the first time are required to live in the residence halls. Limited exceptions may be granted. (See the Residence Life webpage for details - inside.mines.edu/RLS-New-Students). All residence hall students are required to purchase a meal plan.
Housing preferences for building, single rooms and roommate selection will be considered on a first-come basis by date of completion of the Student Enrollment Confirmation Form and Deposit process.
If you have any questions about the Residence Halls, or the housing application, housing contract or Theme Learning communities, please contact the Residence Life Department via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Senior Year, May 1 – Enrollment Date and Disability Services
The enrollment deadline is May 1. In the acceptance letter, your student will find an enrollment confirmation form, which should be returned and processed by May 1 to ensure enrollment for the following fall term. An enrollment deposit of $200 is required. To help you remember the details and know what to look for, we will also include our "Road Map to Mines" form with the acceptance letter. It is imperative that your student submits the enrollment form and enrollment deposit according to the timeline provided in the "Road Map to Mines."
The Disability Services staff is available to assist with appropriate paperwork and necessary accommodations for students with documented disability. Students should begin working with CASA upon submission of the enrollment deposit.
Summer Break – Preparations
Several campus offices will work collaboratively over the summer to provide students with information preparing them for the first semester of college, including details on freshmen orientation, parent orientation, e-mail accounts, health forms and more. This is also the time when your student confirms that we've received all AP/IB scores, official college transcripts (if applicable), disability services forms and any other requested information. Your student will need to purchase books when he or she arrives to campus for the semester. We encourage our future students to work during the summer months to earn their book and spending money for the year.
First Day of Classes
Classes begin in late August following an extensive orientation/welcome weekend. Move-in day is the Friday before classes begin. Visit Academic Calendar for important dates throughout the semester, including fall and winter break, spring break, homecoming, parents weekend and more.

Reds sign catcher
CINCINNATI -- The Reds have agreed to terms with former Tigers
The deal, which was first reported by ESPN Deportes, is pending a physical. The Reds have made no formal announcement.
Exact terms of the contract are not known, but Pena is expected to get a raise from the $865,000 he made last season with Detroit.
Pena, who will turn 32 in January, is a native of Havana, Cuba. He batted .297 with four home runs and 22 RBIs over 71 games last season for the Tigers.
In the big leagues since 2005, Pena has also played for the Braves and Royals. Lifetime, he is batting .258 with a .292 on-base percentage, 18 homers and 120 RBIs over 406 Major League games.
Cincinnati currently has two catchers under club control on its 40-man roster. Veteran Ryan Hanigan is headed for his third year of arbitration eligibility, and Devin Mesoraco just

'Ghostbusters' actor Harold Ramis dies
(Chicago, IL) -- The man who gave "Groundhog Day" new meaning on the big screen has died. Writer, director and actor Harold Ramis passed away early Monday at the age of 69. Ramis' career was marked by a number of hit comedies that also helped launch the careers of actors John Belushi and Bill Murray. In addition to "Groundhog Day," Ramis' left his fingerprints on cult classics such as "Stripes," "Ghostbusters," "National Lampoon's Animal House" and "Caddyshack."
A graduate of Second City's groundbreaking TV series "Second City Television," for which he both wrote and performed, Ramis' wild comedies opened the doors for a future generation of comedic actors and filmmakers who carried on his tradition of over-the-top humor. "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane was among the first to react to news of Ramis' passing on Twitter. He wrote, "Harold Ramis was a brilliant, shining example for every comedy writer hoping to achieve excellence the field. He will be sorely missed."
Ramis' wife tells "The Chicago Tribune," Harold had battled a condition known as autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis, which affects the blood vessels. The Chicago native was surrounded by family when he passed away. He was 69.

So, I`m going to start with a little story. Back in January of this year, I had to, for one of those really simple computer classes, print out some song lyrics. Just because I felt like being different, I printed out the Japanese lyrics, in Kanji/Kana, of Bad Apple. Skip to a few days later, I got bored. Decided to try to guess what each character sounded like. I only went by the rule, one syllable, and complex ones are often more than 1 (I didn`t know what Kana was back then.) I used my Romanji Bad apple lyrics, and by the end of it, I noticed a few patterns, and had some Kana down. Then I actually found out what it was, and decided I should be able to read it like I am the Latin and Cryllic alphabet. Took my, again, romanji lyrics, and converted the whole thing to Kana. First week, I had Hiragana down. Second week, I had half of Katakana down (And I still can`t fully read it since I haven`t bothered.) The third week was just nothing, but I did practice reading the Kana I could.
So, I forgot how I got to the point, I decided I wanted to actually learn Japanese no matter what on 2月17日。I found Tae Kim`s guide in the Appstore. It was free, and it had a lot of grammar. At first, I decided to read Genki for grammar and just learn vocab and yadda yadda under the title, 'DO EVERYTHING! I read Genki somewhat and didn`t understand ANY of it. Now, I come back and see what it means. And even its conversations make sense except for the vocab I don`t know. It`s now slightly over a month later. From the guide, I have everything "mastered" to around the end of essential grammar. After that, and throughout to the end, it just skips around. I think my first sentence was, "私はあなたに上げた". Right now, I`m ABLE to create sentances, they`re just not terrible too complex. And if they try to be, well, you`ll see. I use a dictionary, appropriately named 言葉, for every word I didn`t know in these "notes" (Since I wrote them in my ipod.)
Here`s my problem, and arguably overly simplified. Kanji-reading skills and vocabulary. Now, I can recognise around 120-140 Kanji? As for reading them, that`s a different story. I`m always going to pronounce 夢 ゆめ、大 だい、 etc. along with a few other examples because I, kind of, brute forced all the JLPT N5 Kanji and some other randoms. I know their meanings, though arguably not ALL the meanings for all of them (When I try to go over 分 I just say part of a minute of a time of a segment, and when I go over 本 I just say book.) Other Kanji I can recognise, I can ONLY pronounce when they`re in certain combinations. 天気 I know not how to pronounce 天, but in that one it`s てん I know. 葉 I do not, but in 言葉 I do, the same with 今日(I always pronounce 今 as いま unless it`s in this combination) and so on. What would be your way of learning Kanji WITHOUT brute-forcing everything, because I know that doesn`t work. This does include the on and kun yomi.
Another thing I realised about Kanji was when I was looking for the dictionary. By this time, I had some stroke order down from writing some Kanji MANY times. I recognised some horizontal > Vertical line patterns. The little half box thing (Cannot really describe it) as going from the left hook, then one stroke for the whole line and the right hook, and many more. Then I noticed that Kanji weren`t just random strokes. They were radicals combined together, and all those radicals have the same stroke order. However, that`s all I know. I can guess the correct order from looking at Kanji with radicals I`ve recognised, arguably from muscle memory.
I once said that I would be better off if I knew all the 2,000 or so common-uses meanings and pronunciations. Well, I guess I`m somewhat right. You can guess the meaning of 外国人、大人、死体 from the individual ones, but 新聞 and 人間 aren`t as clear.
As for vocabulary, I`m at a loss. I don`t know how to study it. In the sentances I create, and without using my dictionary for the majority of it, I tend to stick with certain verbs and adjectives. 死ぬ、いい、言う、etc. That`s a double edged sword. On one hand, I am further strengthening my understand of those words. On the other, I am limiting what new ones stick into my brain by simply not using them. I`ve tried just writing using some vocabulary, from a printed out sheet I had, but I simply cannot think of anything to write. And when I try, I wear out after just 10 minutes, even if I`d like to put 6 hours. As for the sheet, I printed out some JLPT N5 vocab list sheet, and literally brute-forced repetitioned it. Yeah, I can go to 350~ in the sheet now without looking at the English. So what? I still need to read the Kana for it, of which it has Kana -> Kanji -> Type -> Romanji, and even then, what about the words I can recall WITHOUT the sheet. That is substantially less.
So, I ask, where do I go from here? I can shorten it to Vocab -> Kanji -> Grammar, but that isn`t saying much. For grammar, after I "master" the entire guide, where should I head? Some things like, は が still slightly confuse me, as does たい form and 欲しい (Yes, I am asking questions here.) Even, things like, "Does 良くない contain the state of being like in 良くありません? If not, since it`s an I-adj, I`d have to attach です to it, wouldn`t I? But です makes things polite, so what is even the difference between 良くないです 良くありません?" And, when do I change verbs that end in う to わ? I know it`s somewhere, and I`m pretty sure it`s not the stem, since I`d just be saying things like 言いなさい which SEEMS to be correct. And, in Te-form, I`ve sometimes noticed things say Xている when I would have done Xっている One example was that I read 夢見てる when I would have said 夢見っているか。 Also, いりません seems weird to me, but it is the same version, いる version, of ありません?
Anyways, here`s the things I just rambled into my ipod. It was quite awhile ago, and I THINK I have improved since then. Try to count how many things you can find wrong in here.

The second one

Your sentences are very short and very English-sounding. Mastering the use of things like よ and ね can be hard, and require a good bit of experience with their usage.
I'm a little confused, so I'm sorry if I missed this somewhere, but are you actually looking at Japanese sentences (as opposed to kanji or vocabulary on their own) in all of this? My honest recommendation is to try to expose yourself to as much Japanese as possible, whether that involves simply reading material you enjoy or looking at sentences from a corpus somewhere (alc.co.jp, etc, I think there is a large collection available through anki). Trying to compose sentences when your initial exposure to Japanese is so limited isn't going to be very productive.
Several of your later problems (いう→いわない, 見る→見てる) seem to be simple conjugation problems. A quick google search will explain most of these (there is an extensive wikipedia page if I recall correctly)
Grammar. Grammar. Grammar.
Make it your new best friend.
To be quite honest, you might not think of grammar as the most exciting part of the language, but once you see it start to piece together bit by bit... you realize just how beautiful the language really is. That being said, song lyrics prolly' aren't the best way to learn Kana- and grammar too, for that matter.
You're gonna' need to devote some time to studying the characters and the systematic workings of the dakuten and maru, and all the little details like that. Even if you have a good solid foundation with Hiragana, it can never hurt to step back and review. Plus, once you can tell little details like how ず compares to づ , and じ to ぢ, you'll know you're ready to move on to Katakana. Before you even tackle Kanji, you REALLY need to hammer down on Katakana- it's gonna' be invaluable to you, I can assure you.
However, to supplement all this... you're gonna' have to dive into grammar. I'd recommend "Japanese Grammar" from Baron as an excellent beginner's reference, since it clearly defines the grammatical terms that you'll encounter time and time again as you study. You see, to understand Japanese, you've first gotta' realize how your own language and works, and make yourself aware of all the little details you never knew were there. That's why it's important to "learn the lingo," if you will. You NEED to be able to know what a copula is, active vs. passive, transitive and intransitive verbs and so forth. Take things one step at a time though, and it's far more simple than you'd expect. Once you start noticing all the wonderful nuances of the language, I can assure you that you'll come to love grammar. (I'm a grammar freak- I admit it! )
As far as writing goes, pick up a copy of Japanese Kanji and Kana by Mark Spahn, and Wolfgang Hadamitzky. Without a doubt, it's the most accessible way to learn the Jouyou Kanji, and seeing as it's currently the only thing on the market that covers the new list of 2,136 characters, it's quite modern. I was lucky enough to get a copy early, but if you can't get lucky in a B&N/Books-A-Million, you'll want to purchase it online when it comes out on April 10th. If you make yourself a system, you'll find that Kanji are every bit as intriguing as the rest of the language! XD
Well... hope that helped!
Remember the Kanji (by James Heisig)

Check them out.
Remember the Kanji (by James Heisig)

Check them out.
Oh yeah, can't believe I forgot to mention ADoBJG! XD That's like my most used Japanese book... ever!
Same. I've transcribed the whole thing. (Heisig, on the other hand...)
"Every time you laugh it's a day to treasure"
ADoBJG is great. I have all three books(Basic, Intermediate, Advanced), but I've barely looked at the other two.
Well rest assured you know more kanji than me. Hesig's RTK is awesome especially along with a SRS system.
Now, I haven't been studing much but looking back at the examples I posted here, they're dreadfull. I can see why everyone, it seemed, thought they were as well. At the time of writing, I thought it was pretty good, only to come back two months later and see how bad it was. Well, I'm sure that can be said for the examples I am about to give now. Side note: I can recognise ~570 Kanji now, (all in random order from a method I used i.e the meanings of狂恐尽駆腕伸必当曲変匂散迷許咲誇離躍暇甘優健刹那美委揺独占秤我 and "Many" others are known, while I might not even get the meaning of some JLPT4 Kanji). I plan to learn to read, besides ones like 題, by way of Vocabulary. A few days ago, I knew what 記憶 meant, knew what the individual Kanji meant, but couldn't read it. Okay, きおく. Good, now I can read it.
Here's some examples from a thread I made in an Erepublik national forum, of which it is Japan. There were no posts in their designated Japanese section, so that thread went like this: (My posts are bolded)
Thread name: 無い
And to further cement the fact that it's bad, here's something I wrote in English class.
http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/852/ … 511165.png
(About the picture, here's what I wrote about a certain part in it: The only thing I had a problem with was, "We`re already in hell." I settled with 地獄にいる。, but it might have been more like 地獄は中にいる or whatever. What`s going through my mind in the second example I said is, "The particle density is too damn high."
EDIT - Wait, I got it! "地獄に行いた時が在った." Yeah. No.)
東方界を知らない。ちょっとだけ :3
待て!あなたは分かれる。これが何!?Usually(Can't think of anything for that),日本語を分からなかった。
That last part came out weird. Also, I use 為る for する.

Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
Hey guys, I'm writing an article for What's Up? Annapolis Magazine about the Redskins and Ravens "rivalry" and wanted to get the fan perspective on it.
I have a few questions for you all. If you would like the chance to be cited in the magazine by your real name but don't want to give it out on the boards, you can send it to me in a private message.
If you have any information or opinions you'd like to add after answering the questions, please feel free to do so.
Thanks for taking part in this.
Here are the questions:
- Do you consider the Redskins and Ravens rivals? Why or why not?
- What would it take to make this a real rivalry? Or does the fact that they only play in the preseason and every four years in the regular season prevent it from ever becoming a real rivalry?
- Who takes the "rivalry" more seriously? Redskins or Ravens fans? Why?
- What are your feelings toward the Redskins and why do you feel that way? Do you hate them, root for them, or are you indifferent?
- What are your feelings about Redskins fans? Why do you feel that way?
- What plays or moments from past Redskins-Ravens games stand out to you?
- What is the best/funniest/most memorable story you have about you or a friend/family member that is a Redskins fan (prank, joke, memory during a game, etc.)?

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
The foundation of the "rivalry" to the extent that there is one goes back to the Colts era. Washington has always been envious of the success of Baltimore sports teams - Colts, Orioles, and now the Ravens. Washington is a phony baloney town and always has been. Baltimore is blue collar and has a much more "real" fan base.
But the real animosity towards the Redskins these days goes back to the fact that Jack Kent Cook was the ONE individual standing in the way of Baltimore getting an NFL expansion team between 1984 (when the Irsay's snuck out of town in the middle of a snow storm) and 1996 (when Modell brought the Browns to Baltimore). Cook stood in the way of Baltimore getting an expansion team because he was greedy and wanted to incorporate Baltimore into the Redskins market/fan base. It didn't work because the nature of Baltimore is so different from DC. Baltimore didn't get back into the NFL until after he died - a welcomed event for most Baltimore football fans.
There is no rivalry between the teams - only dislike for Washington D.C. Baltimore's rivalry is with Pittsburgh - is and always has been - and it goes all the way back to when Johnny Unitas was cut by the Steelers. Baltimore and Pittsburgh are similar blue collar towns - and we will fight it out again this year on the field.

Disagree about "hating Washington DC". IMO, those folks are few and far between. We showed last NHL season, there are a good number of folks here are Caps fans and Ravens fans.
As for a rivalry, I'd say ambivalence exists, not a rivalry. Our Steelers game is a rivalry. Us playing the Colts can be squeezed into the category as well, given the past Colts saga. JKC did his fare share to deny us a new team but he's on the other side of the grass, taking his nonsense with him.
The Redskins a rivalry? Nope.

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
I root for the Caps, Georgetown and Wizards so no issues with DC. Actually I'm watching the Skins this year pretty closely to see how RGIII performs. I think he could be a solid QB for years to come.
Don't think there is any rivalry per se. If they became a contender year after year, as the Ravens have done, then you might have something. Otherwise we make fun of Danny and their ineptness but it's not a big deal.World Domination 3 Points at a Time!

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
The only rivalry you are going to really find (other than trumped up media hype.... battle of the beltways bullsh*t)
in areas where there are fans of both, possibly workplaces in Columbia, Annapolis, and that is bragging rights banter.
I know a lot of Skins fans, and I wish them well all the time, except when they are playing a purple bird.
Any rivalry is strictly a media created issue, not a reality, and believe me we here in Baltimore know about writers with the ability to create issues out of bullsh*t.at one point of my life I was exactly Pi years old

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
I don't dislike DC. I take my kids there, I go to concerts there. I root for Caps & Wiz. But........
I friggin' hate the 4Skins. Why? When Bob Irsay (may he rot in hell) moved the Colts to Indy, the league and Jack Kent Cooke jammed the Skins down our throat. Back in the days when 49ers vs Cowboys was the game of the year & would determine home field advantage thru the playoffs, we never got that game on TV here. We were stuck w/the Deadskins vs. Cardinals or some other atrocity. Why? JKC & the league considered Bmore the local DC market. They were forced on us in the days before sports bars & cable showing every game possible.
Add in the back room deals that Jack Kent Crook put together to keep the NFL out of Baltimore and you have outright hatred of that franchise. Now that JKC is gone, it's lessened. And, with little Danny Snyder at the helm, they've provided great comedy. (Spurrier, Zorn, Gibb v2.0, Albert Haynesworth......) So, it's tough to hate the pathetic. The distaste is mellowing & the fact that we keep winning & Danny keeps meddling (if he didn't remind me so much of a young Peter Angelos it would be even better) and setting the franchise back a few years means that after Pgh & Indy, the Skins are the 3rd team on my "My favorite teams are the RAvens & whoever is playing Pgh, Indy & Skins....." list. And there's a steep drop btwn the 1st 2 and the Skins.
Is it a rivalry? Not really. They haven't been good enough to be considered a rival. Different conferences. Different schedules. There's a mini-rivalry with some of the fans, but it's not a heated intense rivalry like with Pgh. I think it's funny that their fans have a wee bit of arrogance b/c of their vaunted traditions & history, but the team has sucked so it's mostly hot air & tough to take them seriously. Their fans are like the guy who talks about how tough he is & then some non-descript non-threatening guy walks toward him & he runs away. Skins have been kings of the off-season, signing big name players, etc. but it hasn't translated to on the field success. That waters down any kind of rivalry. Is it still fun to make fun of them? Sure! Is it still fun to pick on their fans? You betcha. But is it a real rivalry? Nope, never will be because we don't play often enough & the stakes aren't as high. And, unless you're in your 40's or older, you don't even know about the Jack Kent Cooke thing.
Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"Do you consider the Redskins and Ravens rivals? Why or why not?
The demise of the Redskins franchise in the 90's to present has taken the excitement out of playing them. Moreover, the pendulum swinging -- when DC has a contender, we don't, and vice versa. Look it up: since DC entered the NFL in the 1933 and Baltimore in 1950, there have been only two seasons ('71 & '76) when both cities' teams made the playoffs. The Redskins were a perennial contender only when Baltimore did not have a team. During the fourteen seasons since the '99 season, when both Snyder and Bisciotti arrived, the Redskins have made the playoffs only three times, and otherwise were not in playoff contention, while the Ravens made the playoffs eight times and were in December contention eleven seasons.
Also, with Jack Kent Crook's passing, there is no lightning rod of evil any more. The only emotion that I can feel regarding Dan Snyder is sympathy for Redskins fans.
What would it take to make this a real rivalry? Or does the fact that they only play in the preseason and every four years in the regular season prevent it from ever becoming a real rivalry?
Or reorganizing the NFL to place both Baltimore and Landover in the same division -- never going to happen, as the East Coast alternates AFC/NFC teams along I-95 to spread Fox/CBS coverage.
Preseason games are a joke. They don't contribute to rivalries.
Who takes the "rivalry" more seriously? Redskins or Ravens fans? Why?
What are your feelings toward the Redskins and why do you feel that way? Do you hate them, root for them, or are you indifferent?
I have subsequently mellowed into neutrality, but not indifference. I attend about one event at FedEx Field each season: i.e. every Ravens scrimmage, preseason, reg season game, plus some draft days and a few non-conflicting other Redskins games -- I live closer to Raljon than Camden Yards and Redskins tickets can be acquired at half of face value or better (there was a reason why Snyder covered up or removed 14,000 seats). I receive all the Redskins games on Verizon, watching those which don't conflict with games involving our division rival. Plus the bombardment of Redskins shows on Comcast and DC broadcast TV channels makes it easy. Plus the Sun now charging for their web-site, leaving the Annapolis Evening Capital and the Washington Post as the only local newspapers free on the internet with decent Ravens coverage, but also Redskins exposure.
What are your feelings about Redskins fans? Why do you feel that way?
Redskin fans have gone through a lot of change since the Redskins became mediocre, starting with the 1993 season and into the Danny Snyder "glory years". Many of the old die-hards seemed to have lost interest. While there used to be a good sized contingent around Annapolis and mid-Anne Arundel County, they pretty much have just disappeared, judging by the dearth of Redskins car flags, license plates, and apparel worn at Annapolis Mall. I had expected many to crawl out of their hiding spots due the the RG3 excitement, but it hasn't been much different.
What plays or moments from past Redskins-Ravens games stand out to you?
What is the best/funniest/most memorable story you have about you or a friend/family member that is a Redskins fan (prank, joke, memory during a game, etc.)?
(1) Mrs. T, after paying her respects to Dan Snyder's toilets during the 2000 game, was approached by a sarcastic, thumb-up-her-ass Redskin female fan who was jabbing at her for wearing purple warpaint and her signature hair style of purple feathers sprouting out of her single braid. Sarcastic thumb-up-ass Redskin fan: "Is this how you Ravens fans dress up to try to impress us?". Mrs T: "You should see how we dress for Halloween!"
(2) Leaving the loge level (freebie seats) after the 2004 Ed Reed show, we came across a bloodied Ravens female fan who had been accosted in the stairwell by a Redskins male fan, who subsequently ducked into one of the suites. PG County police, in pursuit, came running down the hallway behind the suites, so we did our civic duty by narcking out the location of the perpetrator. Another Redskins fan, who acted like an authority figure, stood in the doorway to the suite, telling the cop that it was a private function which he could not barge. PG County's finest raised his billy-club and told the obnoxious Redskins fan to step aside or he would be arrested. The cop swiftly went inside the suite, handcuffed the attacker, brought him out to the Ravens female fan (half his size), who promptly identified him. Those of us watching this spectacle gave a warm round of applause to the cop as hauled away the perpetrator.
Jake: good luck with your story. It's an interesting topic around Annapolis and should be a well read feature in your magazine, which I subscribe to.
Portending things to come: the Ravens scrimmage a few weeks ago drew 22,000+ at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, while Snyder almost simultaneously announced that the Redskins are moving their training camp to Richmond; the Redskins are ceding central Maryland to the Ravens. There will always be a few Redskins loyalists, but they will likely stay in the shadows for the next 5 to 10 years as that franchise will continue to wallow in mediocrity after the double hit of depleting its stock of draft picks in the RG3 trade, and having its cap reduced by $36 million by the NFL.In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
No more or less than any other team. The Steelers and their 2 superbowls in the last 10 years are a rival - their success matches and even in some seasons exceeds ours and we consistently hope that this year's team can keep up with and even beat them. The redskins have not managed to have any significant or consistent success since the inception of the Ravens and thus if you wanted to pick a nearby team for a rivalry for them perhaps the browns would be a better choice.

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
The rivalry I see more is fans in the opposing market, who are frustrated at living in a city where another team is "king". My in-laws talk a lot of smack about the Ravens. It seems that it's mainly from the fact that they get tired of seeing Ravens fans all over the place. Go figure, you might see a lot of BALTIMORE Ravens fans in BALTIMORE. I can expect some of the same behavior of Ravens fans who live in Southern MD/DC areas...
From a team perspective, it's probably more a friendly rivalry. We don't really matter to each other. We see them once every 4 years, that's it. The on the field "rivalry" would only come from the close proximity. And again, I bet you not a single Raven, except maybe those who grew up in the Baltimore/DC area, care when we play the Redskins any more than when we play any other NFC team..
When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. Thats the Baltimore Raven way. - Steve Smith Sr.

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
Ravens/Redskins are as much of a rivalry as Ravens/Browns.
I think the level of concern is likely greater on the Redskins fan side than the Ravens. The only times Ravens fans pay attention to what the Redskins are doing is once every four years, the week before the game.
I do feel for Redskins fans though. I have a few friends that are Skins fans, eternally optimistic, and extremely loyal, only to have their hopes and dreaams crushed by Week 8 of each season.

Re: Ravens-Redskins "Rivalry"
I will say this...I love Harbaugh, but I think the way he keeps talking about Ravens fans "taking over" D.C. is getting us undue attention. DC fans really use that as wood on the fire to keep firing away at Ravens fans and act as general asshats. And it's kind've hard to defend Harbaugh on that, because honestly, why is he so hung up on Ravens "taking over D.C."? Focus on sweeping the idiot Steeler fans out of Baltimore first!
He also threw something in recently where he said he wanted us to be Redskins fans' "AFC team", while they could be our "NFC team"...except he will always root for the Eagles. He made sure to point that out, so...bonus points with him for Redskin fans. IMO, he should've heard the question and just listened for the next one, mouth closed.

Sampson simply perfect over six frames
Righty fans 10 in his full-season debut for Class A Fort Wayne
By John Parker / Special to MLB.com | April 7, 2011 6:30 PM ET
The TinCaps starter tossed six perfect innings in his full-season debut, striking out a career-high 10 batters, and Fort Wayne held on to beat South Bend, 2-1.
For Sampson, the Padres' fourth-round pick in the 2009 Draft, it was his second consecutive Opening Day gem. He pitched five shutout frames, fanning seven, to earn the win for the Eugene Emeralds in their 2010 opener last June.
"I was very pumped up and ready to go get them," Sampson said.
"The first three or four innings I think I threw all fastballs -- maybe with one changeup," Sampson said. "After that I mixed in a couple curves, but it was pretty much fastballs all night."
Sampson had no issues as the Fort Wayne evening became increasingly chilly and wet -- the game time temperature was just 45 degrees.
"I was fortunate that it didn't really start raining until the fifth inning or so," he said. "I was still feeling good [after six innings], but I know it's more important to focus on staying healthy and keeping within my pitch count."
First baseman Wes Cunningham drew a walk in the second, stole second and scored on a Tommy Medica single to give the TinCaps an early lead. They tacked on a second run when Medica doubled and scored in the fourth.
South Bend finally notched its first hit with two outs in the seventh after Fort Wayne reliever Chase Marona had taken over for Sampson. After Yefri Carvajal pitched a scoreless eighth, TinCaps closer Adam Dominick flirted with danger in the ninth, yielding a leadoff double and a pair of singles that left Fort Wayne clinging to a 2-1 lead facing runners on the corners with one out.
Dominick bore down and struck out the Silver Hawks' Yazy Arbelo and Matt Helm to end the threat and give Fort Wayne its sixth consecutive Opening Day victory. The club is 14-5 in openers over its 19-year history and improved to 97-43 at Parkview Field, which opened in 2009.
Sampson (1-0) earned the victory and Dominick his first save for Fort Wayne. South Bend starter David Holmberg (0-10) suffered the loss after yielding a pair of runs on eight hits over six innings. He struck out four and walked one.

Results 1 to 10 of 10
public shooting range...gone wrong
I travel alot for a construction company, I go all over the united states. I have been to a ton of bow shops and ranges public and private. Most ranges have posted range rules weather it public, private or at a bow shop. WELL I went to a range in GA today to finish sighting in my new bow and there was a father and several boys there maybe 5 boys in total. The father was trying out a stickbow he had built himself. I stopped at a fast food joint to get something to eat before I shot. While I was sitting in my truck eating I watched the father shoot. The targets had 4' by 4' butts. The father was having problems hitting the 4' by 4' backstop with his newly built bow and I had a bad feeling from the git go. I walked up with my case and quiver and began setting up all the while watching the father who hit the backstop roughly 3 out of 6 shots...ok no biggie. So i finished getting set up and walked up to the line, took one shot and wanted to walk down range to take a look(there was a pretty good cross wind). He was moving his childrens stuff off the line over to the picnic table. I yelled down range and went to retrieve my arrow. While pulling my arrow I hear a thunk, thunk thunk. He was shooting while I was pulling my arrow. Holy crap forget about all the range rules at this place its survival of the smartest here. I walked up to the line and packed my stuff and left. I didn't even say anything to this guy I didn't think it was worth since his kids were squirrel hunting in a public park with bows and were no better shot than their father. Ok so how do people get away with doing thing like this. That was the most dangerous situation I have been involved in quite some time and I had zero control of the situation. I called a buddy and told him about it and he asked me if we had words and I said no actually I was so scared I that never even crossed my mind. Please let me remind you that 3 out of 6 arrows weren't even hitting the 4' by 4' back stop. SO my question is what would you have done because I have never encountered something like this ever. Most places will threaten to kick a guy out if he even nocks an arrow while someone is down range. WOW just though I would share how my afternoon went.
They get away with stuff like that because people that have stuff like you had happen DON'T SAY ANYTHING TO THEM. So they don't stop or don't know that what they are doing is wrong.
Why one EARTH would you not say something?
Well like I said I have never been in a situation like that before and was so shell shocked I never thought to say anything I know that some poeple would instictivly say something but my inital instictive thought was get the hell outta there. No one ever had to tell me not to shoot while someone was down range. If I ever was told not to shoot down range while another person was retriveing arrows or looking at their targets it was when I was a very very young child. I can't believe it isn't self explanitiory. If we were at a rifle range I bet he wouldn't have done that. and again now that its all over I wish I woulda said something but I just wanted to get outta there. Thats all that was in my head at that exact moment.
I would have tried to not make him look bad in front of his kids. BUT I would have told him that was a big no no. maybe he didnt know. has to learn somtime.Lingerie football. I dont care who wins.

When the weather is nicer and we have more daylight, I frequently shoot at a public range. I haven't had to do it often, but several times I've had to speak up to keep people from doing something stupid. Only one time have I felt the shooter was being unsafe enough to really get in his face. I told him about the rules and when he was belligerent I suggested that we contact the park police for an interpretation of the rules.
I had my cell phone, and when I began the call, he packed up & left. This was a couple of years ago and I haven't seen him since.
Most times if you approach people in a non-threatening way, they quickly quit doing whatever stupid thing that they were doing. I've made a couple of long term friends this way.
To keep these public ranges open, we have to speak up. As soon as someone is injured and sues the park, the range will likely be closed.
I have to say I'm a bit surprised in the gerenal respose from everyone, while I definitley made the mistake of not saying anything noone seems to "feel" what my general feelings were about the issue which I never actually said. I don't feel like any grown man should have to be told shooting while someone is down range is very dangerous. Weather they know range rules or not the danger factor should be self explanitory and in my opinion if an adult is not bright enough to recognize that then I don't believe saying anything will acomplish anything other than someone losing their temper agruing with a person that obviously just can't recognize an unsafe action. I have been to bow/rifle/pistol ranges and heard of someone making an accident like nock an arrow while someone is down range or at a public gun range someone over at the 25yd lane take a shot not realizing someone is still down range on the 100yd side. Those things I have seen but it was just him and I at the exact moment he began shooting and we were at two lanes directly next to each other there was no missing me visually and again in my opinion not knowing range rules doesn't constiute a grown man being able to recognize the fact that he is creating a very unsafe sitiation. if this guy can't see how unsafe that is then how would you feel hunting on the same public property he is on. Certain "range rules/etiqutte" still apply there. the only differnce is there probably isn't anything posted on a sign and every person hunting on that state or federal land is left to assume everyone else hunting there has a certain level of intelligence and respect for the saftey of themselves and others. I find it disturbing that an adult has to be told about range rules to make him understand why they exist which is primarily to make people recognize the dangers involved in shooting a bow,rifle or pistol. I will again say that hindsight I most definitley should have said something that was a HUGE mistake on my part, I guess this is yet again another exaple of the type of person that will probably screw up a good thing for everyone else and I had a chance to possibly prevent that. now I feel pretty bad walking away.

hey I wouldnt feel bad about what happened. when I said I would have said somthing I was thinking about my home range. in a strange place by my self I dont really know what I would have done. who knows the guy could have been an escape ax murder. at the time you done what you thought was right so I wouldnt lose any sleep over it.Lingerie football. I dont care who wins.

well I just wanna say, it was most definitely a learning expierience and everything everyone said is appreciated. I asked what other people would have done because I really wanted to know. Every experience is a learning experience. Next time I'll be a bit more prepared on how to handle the situation properly. Thanks to all for the advise.

Am I correct in saying he is back in the ufc?
Am I correct in saying he is back in the ufc?
Anthony 'Rumble' Johnson Returning to UFC, Faces Phil Davis at UFC 172 so yes safe to say you are correct.
Retired 2k and out.
You are correct. Fighting Davis as above.
Davis by UD.
Isn't this another guy that Dana said would NEVER return to the UFC?
Maybe there is hope for Paul Daley after all.
As for the fight Davis controls him for a comfortable decision.
He never said that about Johnson. Johnson was just immature and a little unprofessional when trying to make weight.
Daley was a prick and deserves his punishment imo.
I thought Dana was pissed with Rumble when he failed to make weight against Belfort & said he wasn't coming back, like he did with Marquardt's TRT use screwed up a main event. If I'm rembering it wrong fair enough.
I think Rumble is going to lose more fights than he is going to win in this UFC tour.
Sherdog.com - The number one MMA site on the web today!
IIRC all that was said that he needed to make weight and win fights, after he settled on LHW, that's exactly what he's done.
I don't remember there being a definite "This guy's never going to fight in the UFC" speech.
16-bit for life http://findingdyluck.blogspot.co.uk/
As Ben said, thats how I remember it, don't think we will ever see Daley back in the UFC sadly, he'd need a whopping run of KO's and he lost his last but one fight... Rumble didn't leave under the same kind of cloud as Daley, just shit at making weight and he has sorted that with moving up a class..
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.

Detroit chef creates meal inspired by Radiohead's 'Kid A'
Listen to Radiohead on iHeartRadio
Radiohead fans can now enjoy the band's Kid A album with their stomachs.
Detroit Golf Club chef Kyle Hanley has created a ten-course tasting menu that pairs each course with a track from the band's 2000 release. The meal includes a pan seared Diver Scallop appetizer to go with "Kid A" opener "Everything in Its Right Place," some maple sugar seared duck breast to compliment "Optimistic," and a Mousse Duo with blackberry pate de fruit to finish things off with "Motion Picture Soundtrack."
Hanley tells the "Huffington Post" they worked hard to make one course flow into the next just like Kid A does from track to track. He says that with a "visceral band" like Radiohead, he hears "textures and colors" when he listens to their albums.
Hanley's meal -- dubbed "A Night with Kid A" -- will be served for one night only on Wednesday, February 19th in Detroit.

|One living creature
|20 hours or until completed
|Saving Throw:
|Will negates
|Spell Resistance:
This seed compels a target to follow a course of activity. At the basic level of effect, a spell using the compel seed must be worded in such a manner as to make the activity sound reasonable. Asking the creature to do an obviously harmful act automatically negates the effect (unless the Spellcraft DC has been increased to avoid this limitation; see below). To compel a creature to follow an outright unreasonable course of action, increase the Spellcraft DC by +10. The compelled course of activity can continue for the entire duration. If the compelled activity can be completed in a shorter time, the spell ends when the subject finishes what he or she was asked to do. The caster can instead specify conditions that will trigger a special activity during the duration. If the condition is not met before the spell using this seed expires, the activity is not performed.

I got this book for Christmas that I am REALLY excited about:
Backtrack 5 Wireless Penetration Testing Beginner's Guide: Master Bleeding ... - Vivek Ramachandran - Google Books
I started reading it tonight and it says in order to set up the wireless lab you would need:
Two laptops with internal Wi-Fi cards
One Alfa wireless adapter
One access point
An Internet connection
It also briefly mentions that you can use Virtual Box, but doesn't give any details. I currently have two VMs set up in my VMware Player: Backtrack and Windows XP. Is it possible to set up a wireless lab this way and still be able to carry out the exercises in this book (for any who may be familiar with it)? Would I need to go out and get an Alfa wireless adapter as well for things like packet injections.
I'm very new to this and I'm hoping to build a foundation to work on. I'd really love to learn about wireless security and get some insights into Penetration Testing but I just don't have the room to set up a real wireless lab so I'd love to find a way to set up a lab that I could use to follow the exercises in this book using virtual machines. Any help would REALLY be appreciated!
Thank you so much!

Meeting on Impact of Tour Buses
The Police Department would like the opportunity to meet with more residents and merchants along the Alexander/South/Second/Richardson corridor regarding the impact of the tour buses. The Department wants to share information on their efforts to minimize the negative impacts on the residents up to and including regulations from either the California Public Utilities Commission or the City of Sausalito.
Representatives from the Police Department are offering to meet either at someone's residence or at the public meeting room at the fire station. Please contact SPD Captain John Rohrbacher at either 289-4177 or firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
The Police Department would also like to remind residents that there will be an update to the City Council on the tour bus topic on Tuesday, May 6.
Reducing the Impact of Rental Bicycles in Sausalito
In past years, the City of Sausalito has seen a steady increase in the number of bicycle riders coming into the City and then taking a ferryboat ride back to San Francisco. As the number of riders grows, so does the concern for safety issues involving the interaction of bicyclists, vehicles, and pedestrians. In addition, the number of bikes coming into our City has exceeded the capacity of the current bicycle parking areas.
With summer just around the corner, the City has taken proactive measures to increase tourist safety, find additional bicycle parking and encourage additional ferry runs.
After meetings with local merchants and careful review, Chief Jennifer Tejada and Public Works Director Jonathon Goldman proposed a pilot project to improve upon last year's changes. This plan, which includes the closure of Tracy Way for bicycle parking, was presented to the City Council and approved. This closure has allowed staff to add additional bicycle parking in the downtown area and reduce the interaction of bicycles and motor vehicles. During this closure, El Portal became a two-way street with areas where motorists can quickly drop off passengers. All changes to the El Portal –Tracy Way area are temporary and can be easily restored back to their original design after the end of tourist season.
In addition to meeting with the merchants, the Department also held its annual pre-season bicycle meeting. City Staff met with representatives of the ferry companies, Sausalito Chamber of Commerce, Marin Bicycle Coalition, and the bicycle rental companies to discuss the upcoming tourist season. The main focus of this meeting was to address bicycle safety issues along with resident and merchant concerns.
Staff facilitated several discussions that stressed the importance of the rental companies providing proper bicycle safety instructions and rules of the road handouts to bicycle renters, requiring bicycle renters to wear helmets, parking bicycles in designated areas, and increasing the number of ferry trips during peak times. Staff has also requested that the ferry companies, Sausalito Chamber of Commerce, and the rental companies work together to increase the amount of staffing at the reservation kiosk and at the ferry dock.
With these changes and recommendations, along with on-going meetings with the Chamber of Commerce, merchants, citizens, ferry and bicycle rental companies, the City is working diligently to lessen the impact of bicycles in Sausalito.
Special Event
Marin Open Studios: Gabrielle Moore-Gordon
Saturday, May 3 and Sunday, May 4 - 11am to 6pm inside the Library
Marin Open Studios is an annual, free, self-guided art tour in Marin County that takes place the first two weekends in May. The Sausalito Public Library is proud to be hosting an artist in 2014, painter and Sausalito resident Gabrielle Moore-Gordon. Moore-Gordon's painting education began in Switzerland and continued for many years in Hong Kong. Her African up-bringing and a fascination with Eastern art techniques culminate in unusual and interesting work. This has helped her to express her deep concern, not only for the people of her troubled country, Zimbabwe, but also for the endangered wildlife of our planet. Her endeavor is to bring greater awareness to the plight of our vanishing wildlife and to the suffering in the country of her birth, as well as to the delights of the birds and wildlife in our own backyard in California.
Sausalito Library Speaker Series
Stars & Strikes: Baseball and America in the Bicentennial Summer of '76

Join us to hear journalist, pop-culture historian, and avid baseball fan Dan Epstein read from his new book from St. Martin's Press, Stars & Strikes: Baseball and America in the Bicentennial Summer of '76.

Preliminary Floodplain Maps Available for Review
On March 24, 2014, the Federal Emergency Management Agency issued Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map and Flood Insurance Study documents to the City of Sausalito for community review and comment. The changes are expected to affect low-lying properties along the waterfront. Even if your property is not directly affected by the expected changes, the City recommends that you take a moment to recognize the potential for increasing areas of flood hazard as the sea level is expected to rise. Areas west of Bridgeway near Coloma, broad areas in the Marinship, areas along Bridgeway between Napa and Bay, and Bridgeway between Princess and Richardson are all identified as having the potential for flooding depths of less than 1 foot of water with a 1% annual chance. As sea level rises, those areas will increasingly be at risk for more frequent flood damage. The City has paper copies of the map panels and study volumes for review at the Community Development Department/Department of Public Works counter in City Hall (M-Th, 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, Fr, 7:30 AM to noon). The documents will also be available on the City's website under Hot Topics and under City Departments » Public Works » FEMA Issued Flood Zone Maps. The preliminary documents are also available from FEMA's Map Service Center portal at: https://hazards.fema.gov/femaportal/prelimdownload/ (the relevant Sausalito panels are 06041C0507E, 06041C0526E, and 06041C0528E and the study volumes are 06041CV001C, 2C and 3C; an index map for all of Marin County is panel 06041CIND0C).
Citizens are encouraged to review the preliminary map panels and the study, identify errors or suggest corrections to road and place names and other non-technical comments, and provide the City's Floodplain Administrator with those comments. Technical comments are also invited, but may require the services of an engineer with expertise in the process of developing a regulatory base flood elevation to be effective. Technical comments should also be addressed to the City's Floodplain Administrator, Jonathon Goldman at 415-289-4176 and email@example.com. The community will have 90 days to appeal FEMA's proposed changes to base flood elevations, areas of special flood hazard or flood zone designations, so please comment and ask questions at your earliest possible convenience to ensure that you know the facts regarding property and improvements that will be affected by these changes.
Marin Host Families Sought for Japanese Teenagers this Summer
The Sausalito Sakaide Sister City Program is seeking families from Marin County who are interested in being host families for Japanese teenagers (aged 15 through 17 years), from July 24th through August 3rd, 2014.
This year's student delegation from the City of Sakaide, Japan, will continue the tradition, now in its 26th year, of a cultural and educational exchange between the Cities of Sausalito and Sakaide. Every alternate summer students from Marin County have travelled to Sakaide, Japan and in the intervening years, students from the City of Sakaide have come to Marin County. During their 10-day stay, students are treated to a wide variety of experiences and activities, teaching them about life in the respective countries and making life-long connections and friends.
Anyone with a spare or shared bedroom can be a host family. Having children of any age in the home is always a plus, though not required. Japanese language skills are not necessary, as the students generally have a basic grasp of English. The primary responsibilities and expectations of a host family are transportation to and from Sausalito's City Hall each day, provision of breakfast and dinner with the family, participation in the welcome and farewell parties and in the host families' pot luck, and at least one full family day with the host student that illustrates our bay area family life. In addition, host families can participate in some of the program activities with the delegation should they choose to. If the past is any indicator, students become a part of their host family's lives forever; both the students and host families cherish the memory of this experience.
For further information and for an application to be a host family, please contact EV Gilbreath at: firstname.lastname@example.com or call her at: 415 332-2282.
For the 13th year, the Sausalito Art Festival Foundation (SAFF) will be granting art scholarships to Bay Area students. A total of $20,000 in scholarship funding will be awarded to a minimum of four students who are graduating high school seniors or currently enrolled in college.
In addition to the supporting documents required (transcripts, proof of enrollment, etc.) candidates will be asked to submit two written essays, including one on "How art has affected my life". Ann Arnott, SAFF board member who chairs the scholarship committee said: "We're looking for students with financial need, but also those who are inspired by art and have a vision of what it can do for others." For applications, eligibility requirements and other details go to www.sausalitoartfestival.org, call 415.332.3555, or email email@example.com
Applications are due May 16th and will be evaluated by the SAFF Scholarship Committee. Winners will be notified June 6st.
The SAFF Scholarship Program supports the mission of the Sausalito Art Festival Foundation which is to encourage, promote and support the arts within the community. Funding for the scholarships is provided by proceeds from the Art Festival Gala and Silent Auction. Over $150,000 in scholarships has been gifted in the past 13 years and numerous recipients have gone on to have successful careers in art thanks to this valuable educational support.
