LaDainian Tomlinson and Barry Sanders -- that's Hall of Famer Curtis Martin's personal list of the two most exciting tailbacks to hit a hole and threaten to take any carry the distance.
The San Diego Chargers announced Sunday morning that Tomlinson will call it a career tomorrow after 11 seasons, 13,684 rushing yards and 145 rushing touchdowns, totals which rank fifth and second all-time, respectively.
Martin, who was also a running back and will be immortalized in Canton, Ohio, in August after ranking fourth on the all-time rushing list (14,101 yards), regrets that he didn't have the chance to play with L.T. on the New York Jets. Tomlinson spent his last two seasons with the Jets after signing as a free agent following nine years with the Chargers, including his 2006 league MVP season when he set a league record with 28 rushing touchdowns and 31 overall.
"LaDainian is one of the greatest ever to do it. I put him before myself,'' Martin told USA TODAY Sports. "You have Walter Payton, Emmitt Smith and Barry Sanders (the NFL's top three all-time rushers), and I was actually expecting L.T. to pass me up this year.
"I definitely consider LaDainian one of the best running backs ever."
Tomlinson will speak during a press conference at Chargers Park on Monday.
Smith is the all-time ground gainer with 18,355 yards; Payton ranks second with 16,726; and Sanders is third with 15,269 yards.
Martin's No. 1 criterion for judging tailbacks is vision. But he praised the 5-10, 215-pound Tomlinson for his electricity and versatility. The five-time Pro Bowler and fifth overall pick in the 2001 draft, LT also finished with 624 career receptions for 4,772 yards and hauled in 17 receiving touchdowns. He even threw seven TD passes off his eight career completions and finished with a 66.7% completion rate that would make any quarterback proud.
"L.T. has terrific vision,'' said Martin.
"LaDainian had that second and third gear, where not only could he make you miss in the hole and run between the tackles very well, the exciting thing about he and Barry Sanders (was) as soon as there's a crack, the crowd is on their toes because they could break any run and take it the distance.
"Those two guys were great breakaway running backs as well as great, hard-working, tough running backs.''
Martin expressed regret that, like himself, Tomlinson gained all those hard yards but failed to walk away with the one thing that would have made his career even more special.
"The one thing we will have in common, we're both in the top five in all-time rushing,'' Martin said. "But we both finished without a ring. Him and Barry Sanders, they are two guys more than anyone who deserve that ring.
"It shows you how difficult and how much a team game that football is.''
Like Martin, Tomlinson will be remembered not only for his magical carries on the field, but for the way he carries himself off it.
"I hate to see him retire,'' Martin said. "Last time I saw him was last year, I told him, 'A lot of people said I couldn't do it in my 10th year.' I told him he had much more ability than I did at that point in his career. ... (But) it didn't work out that he had that special year last season.''
Tomlinson gained just 280 yards on 75 carries in 2011 for the 8-8 Jets, but he left his stamp on the organization with his work ethic and veteran's presence.
"He was a great leader in the locker room these last two seasons for the Jets,'' Martin said. "I would have loved to have played with him with the Jets -- I think that highly of him. ... I just have a lot of admiration for the guy, the way he carried himself, the professional that he was throughout his career.
"That's one of the first things people mention about LaDainian, how great a guy he is.''
Martin looks forward to sitting down with Tomlinson when the two have time to share their memories and visions for their post-career business opportunities. One thing Martin knows for sure: Tomlinson can expect that letter of admiration from Denver Broncos QB Peyton Manning, who makes it a point of sending hand-written notes to the league's all-time greats and Hall of Fame shoo-ins.
"I still have Peyton's letter,'' said Martin. "He just said how much he admired how I played the game, the way I approached the game, that it was an honor playing against me. It was a really warm letter.''
Manning's letter to Tomlinson figures to be in the mail soon.

Publication Date September 23, 2013
After her critically acclaimed books of interviews with Afghan, Iraqi, Israeli and Palestinian children, Deborah Ellis turns her attention closer to home. For two years she traveled across the United States and Canada interviewing Native children. The result is a compelling collection of interviews with children aged nine to eighteen. They come from all over the continent, from Iqaluit to Texas, Haida Gwaai to North Carolina, and their stories run the gamut — some heartbreaking; many others full of pride and hope.
You'll meet Tingo, who has spent most of his young life living in foster homes and motels, and is now thriving after becoming involved with a Native Friendship Center; Myleka and Tulane, young artists in Utah; Eagleson, who started drinking at age twelve but now continues his family tradition working as a carver in Seattle; Nena, whose Seminole ancestors remained behind in Florida during the Indian Removals, and who is heading to New Mexico as winner of her local science fair; Isabella, who defines herself more as Native than American; Destiny, with a family history of alcoholism and suicide, who is now a writer and powwow dancer.
Many of these children are living with the legacy of the residential schools; many have lived through the cycle of foster care. Many others have found something in their roots that sustains them, have found their place in the arts, the sciences, athletics. Like all kids, they want to find something that engages them; something they love.
Deborah briefly introduces each child and then steps back, letting the kids speak directly to the reader, talking about their daily lives, about the things that interest them, and about how being Native has affected who they are and how they see the world.
As one reviewer has pointed out, Deborah Ellis gives children a voice that they may not otherwise have the opportunity to express so readily in the mainstream media. The voices in this book are as frank and varied as the children themselves.

"It's heartening that so many of these young people are positive about their lives, no matter how troubled, and about their futures....Ellis' book is an excellent opportunity for classroom discussion and individual, empathy-inducing reading." Booklist, STARRED REVIEW
"[O]ften simultaneously heartbreaking and hopeful...Unflinching and informative, this volume will appeal to a broad range of readers." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Ellis's transcriptions of these interviews allow the authentic voices of the young people to come through...Important and provocative, this is a good choice for libraries wanting to add a contemporary, youthful perspective on issues affecting indigenous people in North America." School Library Journal
"[T]hese young people embrace their distinctive cultural practices and almost without exception, express a buoyant attitude. As gay Chippewa 16-year-old Zack puts it, 'They tried really hard to kill us all off, and we're still here!'—a welcome and necessary reminder to all." Kirkus Reviews

[ John Harvey was disposed as governor and ordered to return home
to England in 1639. He died a few years latter. He wrote his will aboard a
ship he was tarveling on. He lived in London England and had a brother
Simeon Harvey I believ it was who also had lived in London England. any one

[ I am not sure if the first John Harvey and this second one are
the same. The second John Harvey listed was a son of a Thomas harvey who
brought 17 people over from England including his wife Mary and son John
Harvey. This John Harvey was the John Harvey who married Dorthy Tooke. She
died and I have a abstract copy of her will. No children were listed in her
will so her and John may have died Childless]

[ This is the supposed Harvey of who all the harvey's who came
out of Lunenburg Co. VA are descended from. I say supposed because there is
no documented evidence found as yet on who the father of the Harveys who
came from that area are. In the actual records that record this marriage it
says his parents are John Harvey and Mary of Heath Snitterfield Parish
Warwickshire England. Thomas married Joanna or Johnna Jenkins as above.
Thomas harvey then married Sarah Laker. Thomas died see his will abstract
below and Sarah Harvey Laker married Christopher Gale. They had three
children. This Thomas harvey is no relation to John Harvey who married
Dorthy Tooke as far as I can tell. ]

[ This is Thomas harvey who married Joanna Jenkins then Sarah
laker. The other Thomas harvey mentioned in the second deed may be his son.
Its possible the Harvey's from San Augustine Co. TX are related to a
Littleberry harvey and a Charles B. Harvey whose father was a John Harvey.
They come from the Laurens district area from about 1770- 1800. They are
believed by me, John Harvey and Littleberry Harvey to be sons of Charles
harvey and Mary Holcombe who was from Lunenburg Co. VA.. ]

[ This is Thomas Harvey Esquire if I am not mistaken who
married first Jhoanna Jenkins and then Sarah Laker. Richard harvey was his
brother and Richard while here in America for a short time returned to
England where he died. He had two sons per this will. One a Thomas harvey
who married margaret Fletcher and a John Harvey. The Harveys from Lunenburg
Co. VA are believed to be descended from either John or Thomas harvey but no
records have been found to prove it. It is my belief that they are descended
from one of these but not sure yet which one. Richard harvey and his two
sons mostly stayed in VA. There are records that show there was a Richard
and Thomas and John Harvey in VA area that would become Lunenburg Co. VA
before 1700. ]

[ This is Thomas harvey the son of Thomas harvey and sarah laker.
This Thomas I believe married Elizabeth Cole if I have it right. His son
were Thomas harvey who died with out issue. John Harvey who married mary
Bonner. Benjamin harvey who married I believe married julianna baker. Miles
harvey who married Elizabeth Baker. These bakers father was a William baker.
Many of the descendnats of the Harveys named their children William baker
harvey as did the line of Lunenburg Co. VA.. Miles Gale is the son of Sarah
Laker harvey and christopher Gale. Mary harvey sister to Thomas Harvey
married Col. Robert West and they settled in early Bertie Co. NC. Their
Children our Matthew West, Sarah West, and mary West. Elizabeth Gale
married I believe Zebulon Clayton. Penelope Gale married William Little.

[ I am not sure how these harveys relate. They may be some of the
children of Thomas harvey and Margaret Fletcher. I am not sure if this
craven Co. is similar to the Craven Co. of SC pre 1750. Sometimes those
counties were indispute because of the fight on where the SC and NC borders
actually were. ]

Settlement of Charges Between Indian Brokerages and the US SEC
Earlier this week, four Indian brokerage houses entered into settlements with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for charges of carrying on brokerages services to institutional investors in the United States (US) without registration under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). The SEC's press release and the orders pertaining to the four brokerages are available here.
SEC's charge arose on the ground that the brokerages were carrying out activities in the US that required registration under the Exchange Act, unless they were able to avail of exemptions. However, none of this was obtained by the brokerages. As the SEC notes, "Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act generally prohibits a broker or dealer from making use of the mails or any instrumentality of interstate commerce to effect any transaction in, or to induce or attempt to induce the purchase or sale of any security without being registered with the [SEC] as a broker-dealer". SEC charged the brokerages for violation of this provision and the relevant rules.
It is important to consider the type of activities that were carried out by the brokerages, which were said to contravene US securities laws. These include:
- Travel to the US to meet with US investors;
- Contact with US investors through email and telephone calls;
- Transmission of research reports on Indian companies to US investors;
- Purchase and sale of shares on Indian stock exchanges on behalf of US investors;
- Entering into commission sharing agreements with US registered broker-dealers, and soliciting and providing brokerage services through them;
- Organizing and sponsoring investor conferences in the US;
- Participation as a broker in offerings of Indian companies, including initial public offerings, follow-on public offerings and qualified institutional placements (QIPs), which were carried predominantly in India but with some shares being marketed and sold to US investors.
Although the charges were settled by the brokerages without accepting or denying the findings of the SEC, the above discussion provides some guidance as to the type of activities by Indian brokerages that could be called into question by US securities laws.
Of course, the most viable option from a regulatory standpoint would be for brokerages carrying out such activities to register themselves with the SEC. This is particularly relevant given the effects of globalization and the cross-border nature of the securities markets. Several domestic Indian offerings of securities are extensively marketed to overseas investors. Hence, compliance with securities laws in those jurisdictions becomes important from a regulatory perspective. Given that both the substantive laws and enforcement in the US are quite strong, we find instances such as the present charges/settlements, but the same would apply in other leading capital market jurisdictions as well.

Apart from registration, Rule 15a-6 also provides for a chaperoning agreement with a U.S. registered broker-dealer and a consequent exemption from registration. This may be particularly useful if the broker is likely to have infrequent activity in the US, not justifying the cost and hassles of a full- fledged registration. This is what Edelweiss seems to have (now) done.

(b) Participated in securities offerings from India-based issuers to U.S. investors.
These appear to be in relation to an IPO by an India company.
Wondering whether there were no proper legal advisors for these IPOs or is it that, they just ignored it.

Top 10 Ski Lists l
New England Ski Resorts l
Western Skiing l
Canada l Europe
Packing for a ski weekend, a week, or even a day, can be daunting for skiers. As
you stuff your SUV or mini-van full of gear, or prepare for a flight out west,
you stress about forgetting someone's ski gloves or socks. Our family has
certainly made our mistakes, and shared a few panicked looks on the early
morning road trip to the ski resort or airport. Whose job was it to pack Suzie's
ski pants anyway?
After years of planning ski trips, and some forgotten gear, our family has ski packing down to a science, so we are always ready to go to the snow.
With a few systems, you can escape to the mountains with everyone's goggles and
gear, with less worry, maybe even get some sleep the night before your ski trip.
Start with the most essential ingredient:
your ski clothing. Every skier in your
family should have their own boot bag, even the kids. This bag should have a
separate boot compartment plus ample space for ski clothing: hat or helmet,
goggles, neck warmer or facemask, gloves and/or mittens, ski socks, fleece or
microfiber layer, base layer (a.k.a. long underwear), pocket size lip balm and
sunscreen. A large trash bag takes up no space, and can be used for wet or dirty
clothes, or worn as a poncho in the event of wet precipitation, a.k.a.: rain.
Kulkea makes a very convenient roomy Powder Trekker backpack,
or you can go with a tradition boot bag. We
typically wear our ski jackets and pants during a morning ride to the slopes.
When our kids were little, they would sleep in their long underwear, one less
layer to put on in the morning.
For overnight trips, and when space allows for luxury items in your bag, I
recommend portable boot dryers, disposable hand warmers, extra pairs of gloves,
ski socks, and layers. These add-ons prove handy when the weather inevitably
changes. Or if anyone forgets something, they will be forever indebted for your
"loaner." Everyone should have a uniquely identifiable bag, with contact info
outside and inside, preferably unique color bags to avoid confusion.
Pack a
separate luggage bag with après ski clothing and personal items, just as
you would any trip. Your ski stuff is all in the boot bag, except for what you
wear on the road trip or plane ride. For the kids, placing individual outfits in
zip lock bags keeps them organized. If you do not have a washer/dryer at your
destination, these bags are handy for dirty clothing to avoid
"cross-contamination." Most ski resorts and condo complexes have pools and hot
tubs, so be sure to pack a swimsuit. See our
Packing tips and
How to look stylish on ski
If you are flying and hope to ski on your arrival date, I suggest you wear your
ski jacket and pack ski pants, gloves, hat, goggles and ski boots in your carry
on. If your checked luggage is lost, you can easily rent a pair of skis and
poles, but you are in your own comfortable ski boots and clothes. I would rather
not have proper dining out clothes than my ski stuff. The airlines typically get
your lost baggage to you buy the next day, but you would have missed a day on
the slopes or had to wear rentals ski boots.
In your garage or basement,
keep all your ski and snowboard gear
together, skis paired with poles, ready to pack into the car. Just as you try on
your boots before the season, bindings should be professionally inspected for
safety. Flying with skis is expensive so look into rental options like Ski
Butlers, where you order your preferred skis online and the butlers meet you
at your ski hotel and adjust your bindings in minutes. At then end of your stay,
they pick up your skis and you hop a plane with a lot less luggage to carry and
pay for. Shipping skis via UPS or FedEx is another option, but can be costly and
time consuming on both the packing and shipping and receiving ends. When
deciding what rental ski to go with. Consult our
Top Men's Skis Review for 2016 and
Top 2016 Women's Skis Review.
A few weeks before your first ski outing, have a downhill dress rehearsal. Our
family does this in the fall, a fun tradition to get stoked for ski season.
Everyone unpacks their ski or snowboard bag, tries on their gear to be sure it
all fits, is clean and functional. You will have time before your first ski day
to launder anything that smells or is moldy (it happens), or to visit the local ski shop to
purchase anything the kids grew out of. You do not want to spend your first
morning at the mountain in the ski shop, missing precious slope time.
Confirm lift opening times and directions so you are all dialed in for your
drive and arrival. If your kids will be in ski lessons, camp or ski area
daycare, reserve online or by calling and fill out required forms in advance.
Ask what time you need to arrive, what is included in the price, what you should
bring, and where to check in. Label everything in your child's day bag and pack
extra base layers and mittens in case things get wet in the elements or in the
excitement of the day.
If you are
lodging overnight, get the 411 on check in procedures and your
accommodations. Staying in a condominium, you can pack breakfast foods, as well
as après ski munchies, beverages, and even a dinner. Some units only have a
microwave and mini-fridge, so confirm that before you pack a big frozen lasagna.
"Fully equipped kitchen" does not always mean fully stocked so you may need to
bring everything from butter, milk, oregano for your sauce, to a few extra zip
lock bags and laundry detergent (which can be used for hand-wash emergencies if
there is no washer/dryer).
Do a mental checklist as you pack the car: boot bag, luggage, skis and poles,
snowboards, food, money, directions, reservation info, ski lesson registration,
season pass or lift ticket coupons (every little bit helps). My husband packs
the skis and poles in car the night prior, but keeps our ski boots and clothing
warm inside near the door.
Upon arriving home from your ski trip, immediately unpack everything, launder
what needs to be cleaned, then repack that boot bag with all clean, dry gear so
you are ready to go on your next ski trip when the meteorologist says snow.
Ski /Snowboard Boot Bag Checklist - Everything you need for a
week or weekend on the slopes:
Ski or Snowboard Boots (in a
separate compartment)
Ski Pants for colder days, Wind Pants for the warmer days
Ski Jacket for wintry conditions, Windbreaker/Shell for warmer weather
Two Pair of Ski Socks
Goggles and Sunglasses in their protective cases
Gloves/Mittens /Disposable Hand Warmer Packets
Neck warmer/Balaclava/Facemask
Pocket size sunscreen and lip balm
Base Layer/Long Underwear

Singles Play Propels Kentucky to Win Over No. 26 Vanderbilt
April 6, 2014
LEXINGTON, Ky. - The No. 14 University of Kentucky men's tennis team used four singles wins from No. 90 Beck Pennington, freshman Jerry Lopez and Nils Ellefsen and the clinching match from senior Grant Roberts to gather a 4-2 win over No. 26 Vanderbilt on Sunday afternoon at the Hilary J. Boone Varsity Tennis Center on a gorgeous, 60-degree sunny day in Lexington.
"Coming off of the loss on Wednesday, I thought we really competed well today and picked up a good win today against Vanderbilt," UK head coach Cedric Kauffmann said after the match. "I'm really happy with our youngsters and the way they battled and competed in this match. Nils (Ellefsen) and Jerry (Lopez) worked so hard today and deserved their spot in the lineup. Jerry and Beck (Pennington) are some of the brightest young stars in college tennis when they're focused and playing at their best. Tom (Jomby) and Alejandro (Gomez) competed well, but we need to rest them because of some small injury concerns we have with them. When they get rested, they will be back in top form, and we can be one of the best teams in the country."
With the win, the Wildcats now sit 8-2 in Southeastern Conference play in second place, one game behind both Texas A&M and Georgia in the standings. With its 8-2 conference record, Kentucky clinched a double-bye in the SEC Tournament, and will begin play in Nashville on Friday afternoon the week of the tournament.
"It was really important for us to pick up the double-bye in the SEC Tournament with the win today," Kauffmann said. "It's really hard to win the SEC Tournament Championship by playing four days in a row, so that extra day of rest will really help our guys."
The doubles point was one of the tightest of the season, as the Wildcats fell just a few points shy on both courts one and three, as Vanderbilt took the early 1-0 lead in the match.
The No. 2 doubles court of Pennington and senior Alejandro Gomez continues to be a great asset to Kentucky, as the Wildcat pair rolled over Rhys Johnson and Anton Kovrigin of Vanderbilt, 8-3, in the first match that finished. Gomez and Pennington broke right out of the gate, and led the match 3-0 before breaking again at 6-3 to serve out the 8-3 win and take the win.
On court one, fresh off a win over the No. 3 doubles team in the country on Wednesday afternoon, the Wildcat tandem of No. 31 Tom Jomby and Kevin Lai were looking to beat their fourth top-five opponent this season, as they were facing No. 4 AJ Austin and Ryan Lipman of Vandy. After both sides had break points and chances to take a lead in the match, neither side broke in any of the 14 games, and the match was decided by a tiebreak. Vandy got ahead a mini break off the bat and won all seven points of the tiebreak to win 7-0.
On court three, Kentucky's Ryuji Hirooka and Nils Ellefsen were the last to finish, and made it very entertaining on the final court that would decide the doubles point. Hirooka and Ellefsen were serving at 6-5, already up a break, when Vanderbilt's Ryan Smith and Suresh Eswaran broke for 6-6 and eventually wound up forcing a tiebreak. Kentucky was down 0-4 and 1-5 in the tiebreak and then won four-straight points to push it to 5-5 where the madness began. After Kentucky had two match points and Vandy had six match points during the tiebreak, Kentucky evened the breaker at 15-15, with a forehand winner from Hirooka, and Ellefsen with one more serve remaining. Ellefsen then double faulted, and Vandy won the tiebreak on the next point, as the Commodores took the lead, 1-0 on a 17-15 tiebreak on the third court.
In singles play, Kentucky would need to win four matches to take the match, and that's exactly what they did, as the outer courts sent Kentucky home with a 4-2 win thanks to singles wins on courts three, four, five and six.
No. 90 Beck Pennington quickly put a point on the board for UK, as the sophomore from Bowling Green, Ky., delivered a 6-4, 6-3 straight-sets win on court three to square the match at 1-1. Pennington has been virtually untouchable in singles play this season, notching wins in nine of his 10 SEC matches this season. Pennington broke at four-all of the first set, and then two times in the final frame to collect the win.
Kentucky would take its first lead of the afternoon as freshman Nils Ellefsen gathered his first-career SEC win over Anton Kovrigin on court six. Ellefsen broke at 5-4 in the first set to take the opening frame, 6-4 and then put his foot on the gas petal in the second set. Ellefsen broke to begin the set, and jumped out to a 5-0 lead. After a quick hold from Kovrigin, Ellefsen served out the 6-1 second set, and put the Wildcats ahead 2-1.
After a win on court one by Vandy to tie the match 2-2, Kentucky would grasp the lead for good when Jerry Lopez recorded a straight-set win on court four to give UK the 3-2 lead. Lopez found himself down a break at 4-5 in the opening set and needing to break to stay alive in the set. Lopez battled off numerous game points from Vandy's Rhys Johnson, before picking up the break to square the set at 5-5. After two holds, they entered a tiebreak for the opening frame. Lopez got ahead 4-1 and never looked back, collecting a 7-4 tiebreak win. In the second set, the freshman from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, took an early 4-1 lead and added in another insurance break after that to win 6-1 in the second set and put the Wildcats ahead.
Senior Grant Roberts would clinch another match for Kentucky on court five, with a three-setter. Roberts dropped the first set to Vanderbilt's Jeff Offerdahl, 4-6. Roberts then took total control of the second set, jumping out to a 3-0 lead and going up double-break at 5-1. After a service game at love, Roberts won the set and forced a deciding third set. In the third, Roberts got ahead 2-0, picking up a break, and then going up double-break with a 4-0 lead. A Vanderbilt break at 4-1 would make it 4-2 and only a single-break lead for the senior from Lexington, but Roberts stood strong and broke right back for 5-2, serving out a 6-2 decisive-set win, and clinching the match for the Wildcats.
Kentucky continues its eight-match homestand to conclude the regular season on Wednesday afternoon, as the Wildcats will face off against the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes at 2 p.m. ET at the Hilary J. Boone Varsity Tennis Center. The nighcap of the doubleheader on Wednesday will feature the Wildcats and Morehead State at 7 p.m. ET.

VIKINGS OUTSIDE LINEBACKERS – Anthony Barr, Emmanuel Lamur, Edmond Robinson.
TEAM NEED: The Vikings only have three outside linebackers on the roster at the current time after the retirement of Chad Greenway, so there is a clear need here. The Vikings didn't get much out of Lamur last season, so the hope is either that he steps up this season or the Vikings find at least one linebacker in the draft.
POSITION ANALYSIS: As with defensive end, the role of outside linebackers has become blurred with the proliferation of 3-4 defenses and the addition of edge-rush specialists. The top-ranked OLB on our board is Derek Barnett, but some see him adding 20 pounds and becoming a dominant defensive end prospect. There are a handful of players who could be gone in the top 50 picks, so there is talent and depth at the position in this year's draft class.
Derek Barnett, Tennessee, 6-3, 259 – Third-year junior…Started 36 of 39 games, recording 197 tackles, 52 tackles for a loss, 33 sacks, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries…Had shoulder surgery following the 2014 season…Broke the school sack record formerly held by Hall of Famer Reggie White…Will be a 21-year-old rookie…An exceptional blend of size, speed and power…Anticipates the snap extremely well and is almost always the first player moving on the snap…A tireless worker who doesn't give up on plays until the whistle…Is very good at using his hands to neutralize blockers to get around them…Doesn't have the explosion to consistently beat tackles to the outside…Has limited coverage experience, which isn't good if the plan of the team that drafts him is to play him at outside linebacker with duties other than rushing the passer…Doesn't have elite lower-body strength and can get pushed around when blockers get their hands on him…Did all the workouts at the Combine with the exception of weightlifting due to an illness, but ran a 4.88 40 with a 31-inch vertical jump and a 9-9 broad jump. PROJECTION: A player who will get drafted in the first round based as much on his work ethic and his running motor than pure athleticism. He can play in either a 4-3 or 3-4, but will likely be asked to play linebacker at the next level or add weight to be an edge-setting defensive end.
Haason Reddick, Temple, 6-1½, 237 – Fifth-year senior…Two-year starter who had 110 tackles, 35 tackles for a loss, 15½ sacks and one interception in that span…Broke his femur as a junior in high school and tore his meniscus as a senior…Came to Temple as a 185-pound walk-on…Was arrested for felony aggravated assault in an off-campus fight in March 2015 and accepted a plea deal to avoid a trial…A very physical player who has some explosion to his game…A good finisher who chases plays and times hitting holes and creases when they're created…Makes a lot of plays behind the line and is an excellent finisher…Can fit in any scheme because of his position versatility…Doesn't have ideal size for an outside linebacker at the NFL level…Doesn't use his hands well and will get engulfed when blockers get their hands on him…Doesn't have anchor strength to set the edge vs. the run…Ran a 4.52 40 at the Combine with 24 reps, a 36½-inch vertical jump and an 11-1 broad jump. PROJECTION: An undersized linebacker with a ton of fire in his belly, he was a late riser coming off a big 2016 season and showing very well at the Senior Bowl. He was seen as a second-round prospect early in the season, but now wouldn't surprise anyone if he goes in the first round.
Zach Cunningham, Vanderbilt, 6-3½, 234 – Fourth-year junior…Started 27 of 36 career games and had 295 tackles, 39½ tackles for a loss, six sacks and eight passes defensed…Led the SEC in tackles each of the last two seasons…Very good instincts and read-and-react skills, which explain his high production volume…Has the frame to add bulk and muscle without sacrificing speed or agility…Is explosive of the snap and has excellent closing speed…Doesn't have good upper body strength, as was shown at the Combine (see below)…Very raw as a pass rusher because he wasn't asked to do it very often…Isn't a big hitter and, because of his lack of top-end strength, with slide off too many tackles…Ran a 4.67 40 at the Combine with 15 reps of 225 pounds, a 35-inch vertical jump and a 10-5 broad jump. PROJECTION: His versatility to play different positions and his on-field production will likely get him drafted in the second round, but he has work to do to reach his full potential and it won't be on the field – it will be in the weight room and in film study.
Jarrad Davis, Florida, 6-1, 238 – Fourth-year senior…Two-year starter who had 158 tackles, 17 tackles for a loss, 5½ sacks, nine passes defensed and one interception in that span…Missed all or parts of six games as a senior with left ankle injuries…A very good overall athlete who is strong in the run game because of his ability to shed tacklers and rely on his instincts to make plays…Has a high football I.Q. and quickly reads and diagnoses plays…Extremely good blitzer who uses his initial quickness to shoot gaps and blow up plays…Will play a little out of control at times and either miss tackles or take himself out of plays with his own aggression…The Gators' style let him freelance a lot and patrol the middle zone, rarely taking on blockers one-on-one…Has had a series of knee and ankle injuries dating back to high school that have some questioning his durability…Chose not to work out or do position drills at the Combine. PROJECTION: A productive playmaker who has all the attributes of a first-round pick, he could be a Pro Bowl player, but a lot of teams will have legitimate concerns about his injury history, which will likely drop him into the second round.
T.J. Watt, Wisconsin, 6-4½, 252 – Fourth-year junior…One-year starter who had 63 tackles, 13 tackles for a loss, 11½ sacks and two forced fumbles in 2016…The brother of Texans Pro Bowler J.J. Watt…Missed the 2014 season with a right patella subluxation and suffered the same injury to his left patella in the spring practice of 2015…Both knees have been surgically repaired…Spent his first two years playing tight end before moving to defense in 2015…Has good burst and initial quickness off the snap…Is a violent hitter who uses his hands well to disengage blockers and force to bring down the ball carrier…Has good straight-line and lateral quickness and chases plays all the way to the sideline…A raw player with just one year or starting experience and a frame that will have to add 10-20 pounds of bulk and muscle to reach his full potential…Doesn't have elite change-of-direction skills, so when he takes a misstep, it is costly…Wasn't asked to take backs and tight ends in coverage very often and will have a learning curve…Ran a 4.69 40 at the Combine with 21 reps of 225 pounds, a 37-inch vertical jump and a 10-8 broad jump. PROJECTION: If his last name wasn't Watt, he would probably be viewed as a second- or third-round prospect, but given his name recognition and non-stop motor, he has the chance to go late in the first round or early in the second. With his raw skill set and his abilities, he may be of most value only as a rush linebacker in a 3-4 scheme.
Ryan Anderson, Alabama, 6-2, 253 – Fifth-year senior…One-year starter who had 61 tackles, 19 tackles for a loss, nine sacks, four forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries in 2016…Had his left labrum surgically repaired following the 2014 season…Was arrested for misdemeanor domestic assault in January 2015 in which he damaged a female student's vehicle after a heated argument…Injured his left thumb during Senior Bowl week and wasn't able to lift at the Combine…Very good football instincts and is quick to read, react and diagnose plays in front of him…A physical wrap-up tackler who consistently finishes…Has very good strength and balance and can take on blockers head-on and keep on his lane to the ball…Slows down on contact and can get neutralized by blockers when they get their hands on him…Is undersized with short arms and a frame that can't add much more in the way of bulk or muscle…Only a one-year starter and was limited in pass coverage…Didn't lift at the Combine because of a left thumb injury and opted out of the jumps and shuttles, but ran a 4.75 40. PROJECTION: A player whose skill set would seem to limit him almost exclusively as an edge-rushing linebacker for a 3-4 scheme, which likely will push him well into the second round, if not out of it.
Duke Riley, LSU, 6-0½, 232 – Fourth-year senior…One-year starter who had 93 tackles, nine tackles for a loss, 1½ sacks and one interception in 2016… Was voted team MVP as a senior…Very instinctive and makes plays all over the field because he reads and reacts quickly…Is very patient to hit gaps and rarely takes himself out of plays…Has good speed and can handle running backs and tight ends in coverage…Is very undersized for a NFL linebacker and doesn't have much in the way of growth potential…Isn't strong at the point of attack and gets neutralized when blockers get their hands on him…A limited sample size as just a one-year starter and has a learning curve in front of him…Ran a 4.58 40 at the Combine with 18 reps of 225 pounds, a 34½-inch vertical jump and a 10-2 broad jump. PROJECTION: A hard-hitting undersized linebacker who seems best suited to be in a 4-3 system, he will be a special teams dominator and will have the chance to be a starter sooner than later.
Tyus Bowser, Houston, 6-2¾, 247 – Fourth-year senior…Two-year starter who had 97 tackles, 18 tackles for a loss, nine sacks, two forced fumbles and one interception in that span…A multi-sport athlete who also got Division I basketball scholarship offers…Missed five games as a senior with an orbital fracture caused when he collided with a teammate…Has an explosive first step off the snap and has effortless redirection skills…Has very good lower-body strength, which he showed at the Combine with the best vertical jump among linebackers (see below)…Has long arms and uses them well to keep defenders off his body, which allows him to show off pass-rush skills…Doesn't convert his speed into power in his pass rush and will get knocked off his route by blockers…Needs to improve his upper body strength and spend more time in the weight room…Inconsistent defending the run…Ran a 4.65 40 at the Combine with 21 reps, a 37½-inch vertical jump and a 10-7 broad jump. PROJECTION: With a lot of upside and the need to develop his game, if he remains on the board in the second half of Day 2 in the third round, he will become a priority pick at that point.
Alex Anzalone, Florida, 6-3, 241 – Fourth-year junior…Only started 10 career games, recording 59 tackles, four tackles for a loss and three sacks in that span…Tore his right labrum as a true freshman and required surgery to fix it…Suffered a dislocated shoulder as a redshirt freshman and a right shoulder injury in 2015 that ended his season…Played eight games in 2016 before breaking his left forearm…A smart player with good instincts who knows how to take proper angles and get the ball carrier…Looks the part with prototype size, strength and speed…Has a motor that runs hot and will pursue plays to the sideline…Gigantic durability questions since he has been injured each of four years in college…As a pass rusher, he is too easily pushed off his spot by blockers who get their hands on him…Doesn't have ideal upper body strength and needs to improve there (if his shoulders will allow it)…Ran a 4.63 40 with 16 reps, a 30½-inch vertical jump and a 9-8 broad jump. PROJECTION: He passes the eyeball test because he has many of the prototype skills NFL teams look for in linebackers, but his injury red flags will likely push him into Day 3 because few organizations will be willing to take the chance on him earlier than the end of the third or the fourth round.
Vince Biegel, Wisconsin, 6-3¼, 246 – Fifth-year senior…Three-year starter who recorded 173 tackles, 35½ tackles for a loss and 18½ sacks…Wisconsin Player of the Year as a senior…Had surgery on his left foot as a senior…An intense player who runs hot at all times and makes plays all over the field…Is well-proportioned and has a body that can add additional weight and bulk without sacrificing speed…Is a disruptive player who uses his hands well to fight off blockers and gets into the backfield often…A one-speed player who doesn't have a great initial burst or long speed…Is not elite in coverage and will struggle when he has to flip his hips covering backs and tight ends…Doesn't have good change of direction skills and loses a step when forced to retrace his steps on misdirection…Ran a 4.67 40 at the Combine with 21 reps, a 31½-inch vertical jump and a 9-8 broad jump. PROJECTION: A player whose skill set translates in both a 3-4 and 4-3 scheme, he is a hard worker who gets the most of his abilities. He will have an NFL career, but it will likely be as a special teams ace and part-time defender, which will likely push him to be a premium player when Day 3 starts.

Steven Cohen (202) 720-9113
WASHINGTON, June 21, 2007 – SAMS Food Group, Inc., a Bedford Park, Ill., establishment, is recalling approximately 13,300 pounds of beef and chicken base products because the labels were inadvertently switched.
The beef base product contains wheat gluten and soy protein, which are known allergens. Those ingredients are not in the chicken base product and are therefore not declared on the chicken base label.

The typical recommendation for this is a timer to power off and on the
system at the time you desire. There are a lot of various options,
most intended for controlling lights. Any of them will work fine for a
4521, they draw very little power.

Alex Tagliani spent much of this week surrounded by loud music as he promoted his audio-products sponsor in Toronto-area stores. While a pounding bass beat might be enough to give many 38-year-olds a migraine, Tagliani remains more worried about the headaches likely to be caused by inopportune caution periods in Sunday's Honda Indy Toronto.
In fact, Tagliani still feels the pain from the 2009 IndyCar race in Toronto where he looked poised to take the also-ran Conquest Team into the winner's circle until his race was ruined by an ill-timed yellow flag with 25 laps to go.
"I was on my way to the pits and there was a crash, the yellow came out, and I totally got screwed," he said. "If the track had stayed green for four more corners, my strategy would have worked perfectly. I definitely would like to see that change to make it more fair."
When a full-course caution is called in IndyCar, the pit lane closes and the cars line up in race order behind the pace car before they are allowed to stop for fuel and tires. The series shuts the pit because it wants to confirm the running order before allowing the cars to stop.
So, instead of diving into the pits, emerging as the leader and contending for a win in 2009, Tagliani was 11th after his stop and ultimately finished ninth.
It was almost the same situation in the 2005 Champ Car race, when Toronto's Paul Tracy, now with Dragon Racing, ran out of fuel and retired from the lead after the pits closed for a caution with 31 laps to go.
With the same rule applying this year, both drivers might want to take a couple of headache tablets before they get in their cars for Sunday's 85-lap race on the 2.84-kilometre, 11-turn street course at Exhibition Place.
Tagliani, of Lachenaie, Que., thinks the solution is slowing the cars to a set speed under the yellow, so no driver gains ground before the pace car picks up the leader. That kind of system is used in Formula One, which keeps the pit lane open under safety-car conditions.
"When a full-course yellow comes out, we have a light on our dash to tell us and it could be used as an engine governor just like Go-Kart tracks have – we have the technology to do it," said Tagliani, who drives for the Sam Schmidt team.
"As soon as there's a wreck, everybody slows down automatically: Nobody can pass, nobody gets an advantage, and nobody loses an advantage, but then the pits are still open. And it's probably safer because you aren't asking people to slow down, you make them."
In addition, Tagliani's suggestion would keep the cars spaced as they head for tires and gas, eliminating the cluster of 25 drivers that now pile into the pit lane together in a huge traffic jam that's an accident waiting to happen.
Last year's Toronto winner, Will Power, agrees with the idea, adding that adopting the F1-style system brings fairness.
"You shouldn't get penalized for doing a good job and help someone for doing a bad job," the Penske driver said.
"If you get a yellow at the wrong time it could ruin your day, it's that simple. That's why I think it would be better if they left the pits open during yellows."
But a driver's point of view on the procedure may depend on where he expects to be on the leaderboard during the race, because an inopportune caution for one often means good fortune for another.
"There's a better chance that I will be the guy who is running ninth, catches a lucky yellow and ends up at the front than the one who is leading and stretching his fuel," said IndyCar rookie James Hinchcliffe, of Oakville, Ont.
"It's the same for everybody, so it's really about just trying to play it as intelligently as you can. But I think there's definitely an argument that the F1 system is maybe a bit more fair."
The Newman-Haas driver pointed out that during June's rain-soaked Canadian Grand Prix, Red Bull F1 driver Sebastian Vettel pitted on two separate occasions under a full-course yellow without losing his lead.
But, Hinchcliffe added, the IndyCar series must weigh the sporting aspect with putting on a good show, which he feels is "a delicate balance."
Hinchcliffe's Newman/Haas teammate, Oriol Servia, agrees there's probably a better way, but he worries about a change, especially on tight street courses.
"It's a tough call. First and foremost, you have to ensure you aren't putting the safety team at risk," the Spaniard said.
"Even with a rule where you had to go through the segment where the problem is at pit-lane speed [80 kilometres an hour], there are still places where that would be too fast."
All Tagliani knows is that if he finds himself in the same situation as 2009 late in Sunday's race, the anxiety alone might bring on a splitting headache.
"When there's 25 or 30 laps to go and I know I am in the window [to get to the finish] and there are people pitting, the first thing that comes into your head is that you hope you don't see a yellow," he said.
"So, you drive full of stress and worry, because if a caution happens, the guys who pitted will go to the front and steal the position you worked so hard to earn."

"Dinner time!" is the rallying cry of moms and pops everywhere who hope to have a proper family meal just to be thwarted by television programs or smartphone apps. With DinnerTime, the app, parents can utilize their financial and parental controls over their children's smartphones to save Dinner Time.
However, parents should only give their children Android devices, which are easier to control. With iOS devices, prohibition becomes prohibitively difficult. While DinnerTime can use an iOS device to control other Android devices, iOS devices cannot be controlled by either operating systems.
Fortunately for parents, once DinnerTime has been installed on an Android phone, the child cannot uninstall it except through the parent's phone – the device in control. Installation is easy and straightforward, simply download the app on the child's device and link it to the parent's device by SMS text. Once connected, parents can set time limits for dinner time, study time, or sleep time:
During these "break" times the child's ability to use their device – everything from apps to the Internet to texting and calling friends – is temporarily disabled, only incoming calls are allowed while you spend quality time together. Kids can even see the countdown of how much time remains before they are able to access their device again, without any distractions from schoolwork, spending time with the family, or even getting to bed on time.
• Dinner Time: pauses any activity for 30 minute, 1 hour or 2 hours
• Take a Break: pauses any activity for any set time, up to 24 hours
• Bed Time: set a start and end time to pause any activity while in bedtime. Still allow your kids to use their devices as an alarm clock during bedtime

I also work in a snowy area. Our district no longer allots any days for snow. It's really frustrating, because inevitably, we extend the school year. (We've been really fortunate this year so far...) With that said, a few years ago we went to school right up until June 30th, which is only as far as our contract allows. The most frustrating part is that we have some really arbitrary days off that I'd rather be forced to go and not extend the year so long in the end. We have Evacuation Day in March---do you even know what that is? Most of the teachers in our district do not....and then Bunker Hill Day in June, right when we're ready to end the year.
In all sincereity, I've finally come to the conclusion (after driving more than 5 hours home on a Friday night last year during a horrendous snowstorm) that sick days can certainly be used when our Superintendent makes a bad choice and expects us to be in school during really bad weather. I'd much rather go later in June than risk life and limb for a job! You just have to prioritize! Would you encourage your students to brave the elements on a really bad day? If not, do yourself and your loved ones a favor and stay home. I figure that being forced to call in a ton of subs will eventually require that our leaders reconsider their policies!
Good news, though.....winter is more than half over. Enjoy the rest of it. :)
none i live in cali i don't where is your district? MT?
When I grew up outside Pittsburgh, we only had four. One year we went over by so much we were going to school until June 20th or so!. I think they should build in a few more, and if they are not used, make them optional school carnival or open gym days, or something like that.
mine gets 1 day. i live in indiana so we get minimal snow but this year we had a week of 4ft snow! we took 4 snowdays. so yes i think we should get more. however the government requires you to go to school for a specific number of days.
I live in NJ we get as many as we get so I dont believe you the goverment will not allow you at all... they decide if its a delay or a snowday or a normal school day.
This is standard in every state! Unless you live in like Alaska!
Schools have an obligation to be is session for a certain number of days a year.You can't just change that number.
In my normally snowy part of the country we get 5 days and there is only a three day break in February. That way we end up getting out early in June.
So far my kids have not had one snow day. We missed all the storms .
nope cause u have to make up those snow days at the end of the year so it will make u have more days of school! it really sucks! but i like the 2 hour delays and getting out an hour early. cause u dont have to make up those things which is good. =)
I went to school in Iowa. I think we alloted ourselves 4 snow days. But the district I was in was stingy about giving snow days. They just wanted for school to get out on time in May and figured if parents could drive 45 miles to work in a blizzard, the buses could run too. We would pray to have a snow day called, but it was only maybe a 2 hour delay until the roads were cleared.
Here in CA, obviously there aren't snow days, but kids get a THREE WEEK Christmas break. It's been a hot topic lately because the Hispanic families want to go back to Mexico to see their families.
(I am not being judgmental, that's just what's going on here, it's in the papers all the time.)
I live in southwestern OH. Until about 3-4 years ago we didn't have a limit on the number of calamity days. It seemed like some schools, especially rural, were out all the time. Then a few years ago some wannabe known for something legislator decided to limit us to five days. Most years that is enough. Sometimes we don't even get one. But this year, we are already over by one and still have a good month of possible bad weather. Our school district doesn't do delays so either we close or we go on time. That is crappy. Just last week all the schools around us were on a 2 hour delay except us (due to ice). I couldn't even get to my car or open it. I just called my principal and said, I'll try in another hour or two. I got to school about 1 1/2 hours late but she was happy to see me at all. I know that my mother-in-law lives in Maryland and she said they get, like, 9 and her daughter lives in Virginia and they get something like 14.
If they are going to limit the days to so few, like 4-5, I think they should have exceptions (like maybe 5 more) for really bad winters because it probably all evens out over a few years.
Since I live in the desert, I strongly feel that we should have many more snow days! We really need Sun days. Sometimes it gets so hot the kids get all tired, sweaty, a little stinky. Driving home is awful. Many times it is so hot you can't put your hads on the steering wheel. This probably isn't as bad a blizzard though.
In the UK we don't get any allocated snow days... but if the weather is bad, the Head makes the decision whether or not to close. We got one day off this winter.
I don't agree with that. What they SHOULD do is assign homework lessons on snow days so your kids can go to the computer and get their assignments there. Blizzard warnings are often known in advance so homework should be assigned the day before for those without computers or to all of them, so that they don't get behind and don't need to extend the school year.
Your kids will be left behind if they are losing all that schooling.
You're better off to find a solution to getting the school work done DURING snow days rather than adding more days and extending the school year. (You did say you get a lot of snow so it's not like its some kind of rare "treat" for the kids.)
My son's class has a series of homework assignments every week. They know what they are in advance and can do them all in advance, or as required on the days they are due. By doing this, class time is freed up to do MORE than what is in the cirriculum. These kids are very bright and excel and get to have "free" days where artists are brought in and they work the whole day on extra stuff that most schools don't bother with. These "perks" make for better students, less bullying, more comradery etc.
Education is what you make of it, and there are schools that are better, thanks to the teachers and principals and parents too, than others, and I'm glad that my kids are in a school like that. I don't mind driving the distance but again, if they had something in place for really bad days then the kids wouldn't suffer too much for it.
I believe we get 4. But, if the buses can't go through, we get more. we don't add days on to the school year, we cut vacations, like spring break, teachers conferences, holidays are shorter. It is done because you have to have so many days in school to graduate.
None. I live in Northern, Alberta Canada. It snows from October until April. We can get up to 35cm on a given day. We have had 4 major blizzards this year.Out tempeture can drop to -40C with wind chill. Schools in my town were closed for 0 days this year. I was expected to be there everyday, even when it took me 3 hours to shovel my car out and the streets were not plowed. I would LOVE 4 snow days.

Alaska Whitewater Rafting
Alaska white water rafting is like none other. There are many reasons why the adventurous migrate north to do Alaska rafting, if only once in a lifetime. Rafting in Alaska is remote, exciting and historic.
Alaska offers wilderness white water rafting trips
Most Alaska rafting trips are located in isolated areas, accessible only by small charter airplane or helicopters. These rivers give you the experience of seeing pristine nature the way it's supposed to be. Lucky Alaskan rafters have the rare opportunity to see wild life up close as they float past Alaska's amazing glaciers.
Alaskan rafting is one of the best recreational buys around dollar for dollar. There are full-fledged extreme Alaskan rafting trips for the seasoned experts and those with more advanced skills. There are scenic floating trips and also bear observing safaris that last a full day. Some rafting trips can be as little as 3-4 hrs, while others may be booked for a continuous week or two.
Even a first-timer can experience the more advanced Alaska rafting runs. Because of the high level of professionalism and first hand experience among the Alaska's river guides and rafting outfitters, prior rafting experience is not always a qualifier before you can enjoy Alaskan rafting. They always put your safety first.
Alaskan rafting is historic
The early settlers during the turn of the century of Alaska used the rivers as a means of transportation since there were few roads. Many were trying to make it upstream to seek their fortune by prospecting gold, to fish and hunt or to simply seek out a richer and more rewarding life. Of course today's rafts are made from advanced materials and not the hand-hewn log rafts of yesterday, but it is easy to relate to the early pioneers of yesterday when you are on an Alaskan whitewater rafting trip.
There are over 3,000 rivers in Alaska, 42 of which are part of the National Wild and Scenic River System. Each individual river or stream may qualify for 3 classifications: wild, scenic, and recreational. There are 446 river runs available for Alaskan rafting.
The Tatshsenshini River is the most famous, if not the most popular of the Alaska Wilderness Rivers for Alaskan rafting. It swells from a small stream to a huge river where it converges with the Alsek. It also joins with 4 sensational mountain ranges and an abundance of glaciers to form Alaska's most amazing and spectacular river confluence.
The Alsek River flows fiercely from Canada's Yukon Territories to the Alaska coast just north of Glacier Bay. This area is home to the world's highest coastal mountains. Alaskan rafters drift past hundreds of icebergs while also floating past stunning scenery and amazing wildlife. This adventure has it all.
The Kongakut River is about wildlife. The highlight of this Alaska white water rafting trip could possibly be the side excursions of hiking and observing the annual spring migration of Porcupine Carribou herd along the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
The Chilkat River is domicile to the largest concentration of Bald Eagles in the entire world. The guides are not only expert rafters but they are naturalists as well. They will assist you in deepening your understanding of the special beauty of the Chilkat River and the Bald Eagle preserve. A Chilkat River rafting trip can be enjoyed by anyone over seven years old.
Summertime weather for Alaskan rafting is usually mild and pleasant but can also be unpredictable. Your outfitter will inform you what to bring for comfort. Among the most important items to bring will be your camera and journal for recording this marvelous Alaskan whitewater rafting trip of a lifetime.

Seoul, Beijing Find New Common Ground Against Tokyo
History quite literally shapes the present in northeast Asia, where leaders refuse to let the past rest in peace as they tap into this infinite source of conflict - so much so that Japan seems unable to escape the diplomatic quagmire that it's in with China and South Korea.
But while the source of the current strain between Japan and its neighbors tended to be territorial rows or about mid-20th century aggression by the imperial army and how the current Japanese leaders continue to offend, Seoul and Beijing have recently decided to go further back in time to denounce Japan, possibly driving the schism deeper between Asia's top economic powerhouses.
On Monday, South Korean President Park Geun-hye thanked a visiting senior Chinese official for the progress made for a monument in Harbin, China, commemorating the 1909 assassination of Hirobumi Ito, who presided over the Korean Peninsula as governor when it was a colonial protectorate of Japan's.
President Park expressed gratitude towards China's state councilor Yang Jiechi for the monument dedicated to Ahn Jung Geun, who shot and killed Ito. While the Japanese regard Ito, who also served as the nation's first prime minister, as one of the founding fathers of modern Japan, Koreans view the assassination as a brave act of resistance against imperial Japan, which annexed Korea in 1910. The incident took place on a train platform in China's northeast city of Harbin.
Ahn, who was executed by Japanese authorities in 1910 for the murder, is a national hero in South Korea, seen as an independence fighter. He remains, as well, a controversial figure for Seoul-Tokyo relations. A soccer match between the two countries in July received international attention for anti-Japanese banners held by South Korean fans, including one with Ahn's picture.
The idea to build a memorial originated from Ms. Park, who made the unusual request to Chinese President Xi Jinping during her Beijing visit in June. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has yet to hold talks with either leader since taking office in December – a diplomatic anomaly.
"We consider Ahn Jung Geun to be a criminal," Japan's Chief Cabinet Spokesman Yoshihide Suga said Tuesday. He called the development "not favorable for Japan-South Korea relations."
Seoul made a robust response to Mr. Suga's comments.
"It's deeply regrettable to use the term 'criminal' in referring to national hero Ahn Jung Geun, who sacrificed his life for national independence and peace in the Orient," Foreign Ministry spokesman Cho Tai-young said at a briefing.
Ironically, Ms. Park, days before her meeting to share her delight with the Chinese statesman over the anti-Japan monument, called for the three countries to publish a joint history book to overcome their endless disputes.
"There may come a day when the wall of historical issues, which has been a source of conflict and distrust in the region, will be torn down," Ms. Park said.

By Kelly Whiteside, USA TODAY
LINCOLN, Neb. The T-Magic is gone. In more ways than one.
Nebraska's quarterback left the building, declining to be interviewed after a 20-13 loss to unranked Texas on Saturday. Taylor Martinez also left the Heisman Trophy race, at least for now, after he went 4-for-12 for 63 yards and was held to just 21 yards rushing, 126 below his season average.
Of course, the loss doesn't fall just on the shoulder pads of the QB known as T-Magic. Nebraska receivers dropped what could have been three touchdown passes. Last year's starter, Zac Lee, replaced Martinez in the third quarter. "We weren't pointing the finger at Taylor when we made the change," coach Bo Pelini said. "We just felt like we needed a spark."
The No. 4 Huskers also left the national championship race, given the undefeated teams and one-loss teams such as Alabama still in the mix at the moment. Nebraska (5-1, 1-1) had its highest ranking since 2001. A win over Texas (4-2, 2-1) could have positioned them for a national title run.
GAME REPORT: Texas 20, Nebraska 13
TEXAS STOPS SKID: Longhorns trip up No. 4 Nebraska
When Nebraska players finally trickled out of a very quiet locker room, they spoke of the disappointment, but also echoed Pelini who spoke of goals still in reach.
"Our first goal is to win the Big 12," Pelini said. "It's still out there for us to go do but we're not going to do that unless we look in the mirror like men and take responsibility for what happened out of the field today and get better because of it. We'll let the fans and everyone else feel sorry for what happened. You have to take an experience like this and let it make you stronger."
Texas could give a few lessons on responding to adversity after being left for dead following back-to-back losses to UCLA and Oklahoma. Another league loss would have probably extinguished any chance of remaining in the conference race. The Longhorns were also looking to restore some pride, given they haven't lost three consecutive games in the regular season since 1997, the year before Mack Brown's arrival.
"It was a little difficult," Texas quarterback Garrett Gilbert said. "This team the past two years has only lost two games, one in the regular season. … Tough times bring out the true character."
The Longhorns stopped a Nebraska offense that had been averaging 494 yards a game, holding the Huskers to just 202 yards, including a season-low 125 yards rushing.
The loss was also crushing given how last year's Big 12 championship game ended. Players still wear red rubber bracelets that say "FINISH" on one side, "0.01" on the other.
As Nebraska celebrated an apparent win against Texas, one second was put back on the clock, which allowed the Longhorns enough time to kick the field goal for the 13-12 victory. As a result, Texas advanced to the national title game while Nebraska lost its shot a Bowl Championship Series game.
"I don't think it could be any worse than it was last year," Nebraska wide receiver Niles Paul said.
But this loss still stung. "It stinks," running back Roy Helu Jr. said.
"It isn't fun losing, especially to Texas," left guard Keith Williams added. "I'm a senior and I wanted to win that game. It sucks."
So what else is gone? This rivalry, for the foreseeable future, since Nebraska is leaving the Big 12 for the Big Ten next season. "I don't care," Pelini said when asked about the end of series. "We didn't win the football game."
And perhaps lost much more.

Recently, I have been working with Dan and Bevan to build an interactive public art piece, Thought Follows Action, to be displayed in front of the Armory at TEDx Somerville.
We're bringing public art to TEDx, and are excited to share it with you. TEDx has been an inspiring initiative, to take the energizing ideas and format of TED and decentralize to make it local focused and charge up communities.
At New American Public Art, we love the idea that Public Space can be used as a medium of conversation and discourse through interactive art.
This piece is PUBLIC. So even if you don't have a pass to the event, you are still invited to come explore the work, tell us your thoughts, and even better, tell us what you're excited to see grow around Somerville.
The piece will be right outside the Somerville Armory, 191 Highland Avenue, Somerville, MA, on March 4th, 2012, from 10am to 6:30 pm.
What excites me in particular about this piece is that it provides an interface between conference attendees and anyone in the public who wishes to participate, regardless of whether or not they have a ticket, opening up the discourse of the conference by making it more accessible. It is in the public space, so anyone can go to it.
I love thinking about the intersection of art and community- in particular how art can be used to grow a community. In this case, we're creating a piece at the entrance of the event, inviting attendees, people passing by, and those who heard of the piece, to come play with it. This is something people can interact with together, this is something that can generate conversations opening up a platform to share other ideas and projects.

Eric Clapton making plans to end touring career
Listen to Eric Clapton on iHeartRadio
Eric Clapton says he's ready to bring his touring career to a close. The rocker, who'll turn 68 later this month, tells Rolling Stone he intends to retire from the road when he's 70. He says his decision has nothing to do with performing, and calls the time he spends on stage easy.
Clapton explains that the traveling is a struggle for him, and the only way you can beat that is by throwing so much money at it that you make a loss. He adds that going through immigration and security checkpoints are unpleasant hassles, in part because he can never get it right.
Eric admits that when he's going through the airport screening he always forgets something that sets off the detectors, and he ends up having to be searched.
While Clapton isn't going to stop performing, and says he'll continue to play one-off gigs and special events, he's not interested in touring much longer.
Clapton will soon be going through those hassles of touring. He'll kick off a North American trek with a show in Phoenix on March 14th. The road trip begins two days after Eric releases his new album, Old Sock.

Medal of Honor Recipient Ernest Childers Dies at 87
By Adam Bernstein...Washington Post Staff Writer...Wednesday, March 23,
2005; Page B06
Ernest Childers, 87, a Native American and Army veteran who
received the Medal of Honor for his combat service in Italy during World
War II, died March 17, 2005 at a hospice in Tulsa after strokes. He
lived near Tulsa, Ok. He was a second lieutenant in the 45th Infantry
Division when he received the Medal of Honor, the highest military award
for valor.
Ernest Childers was born Feb. 1, 1918, in Broken Arrow, Okla., and
raised on a farm that was part of his father's original Creek tribal
allotment. He was the third of five sons and the best shot, having been
taught by his father, a Creek Nation lawyer and a great hunter. After
his father died, he was responsible for feeding the family during the
Depression years. His mother gave him one .22-caliber cartridge every
day to kill a rabbit for dinner. "I got to be a very good aim," he told
a Tulsa reporter in 2002. "Because if I missed, we didn't eat."
He graduated from the Chilocco (Okla.) Indian School, where he
boxed and learned mechanics. He joined the Oklahoma National Guard in
1937 to earn extra money, and his unit was activated during World War
II. Remaining in the Army after the war, he later taught jungle training
in Panama and winter training in Alaska before retiring in 1965 as a
lieutenant colonel. A brief stint with the Job Corps program in
Washington ended after he suffered a heart attack. Returning to
Oklahoma, he spoke to students about the emotional costs of war.
Survivors include his wife of 59 years, Yolanda Childers; three
children and a brother

(September 1996)
I have now run across the first instance where I want a closed list owned by a remote owner, "dave"... What I have done: 1). Set up the list as I would a normal closed list (one that requires approval), and listed "dave" as the owner, approver, etc... 2). Set up a user on my domain named "dave", complete with a password. 3). Set up a ".forward" file in his home directory, referring to his real remote mailing address... Is this how it SHOULD be done? If not, will this way work? Thanks! -Greg Greg Blakely ___|___ email@example.com o-----(o)-----o firstname.lastname@example.com " " " http://www.kb0tdf.ampr.org firstname.lastname@example.com
