Miss Kansas Contestant Brings Spotlight to Agriculture
Date Posted: May 9, 2013
Manhattan, KS—Danielle Hill, a contestant of the Miss Kansas competition has taken her platform of agriculture to a new level of service.
By mixing her platform "Cultivating Healthy Lifestyles" and the Miss America platform for the Children's Miracle Network, Danielle has created Kernels for Kids.
"Kernels for Kids is a way for our nations' and the state of Kansas crop producers to make a difference in their communities for families that are in need," Danielle said.
Kernels for Kids is a charity that collects bushels of grain from grain elevators across the state of Kansas.
The grain is then sold and the proceeds are donated to the Children's Miracle Network.
All donations raised by Kernels for Kids directly benefit KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Via Christi Hospital in Wichita, and St. Francis Health Center in Topeka.
Farmers can contribute to Kernels for Kids by donating bushels of grain at their local elevator.
On the 15th of every month Danielle sells all the donated grain at market value.
The money earned from the grain is then directly given to the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in Kansas.
Danielle says Kernels for Kids is an easy way for farmers to make a difference and help support children in need.
After visiting one of the Children's Miracle Network hospitals that receives the benefits of Kernels for Kids, Danielle's desire to earn more support has increased.
"Getting to see the families and the children that are receiving the benefits of those bushels of grain, really brought it full circle.
"It made me want to get more elevators involved and ask for that extra ten bushels because I have seen who it's affecting and how it's affecting them," she said.
Danielle is a graduate of Kansas State University in Animal Science and now attends Cleveland Chiropractic College with aspirations of being an animal chiropractor.
Attending school in Kansas City and being the "only person with a pair of square-toed boots" is what gave Danielle the desire to compete for the Miss Kansas title.
"Coming from an Ag background, I felt that it was important that those people who are teaching others about nutrition and health understand where their food comes from" she said.
Danielle currently represents the Kansas City area as "Miss Wooded Hills".
She is spending her year promoting the platform of "Cultivating Healthy Lifestyles."
As a voice for agriculture, her mission is to educate the public on who produces food, plus where and how it is produced.
She believes that understanding these points can lead to a healthier lifestyle.
Danielle hopes to continue to promote her passion for agriculture and health as Miss Kansas.
She says it would be an honor to represent Kansas on the Miss America stage and bring Kernels for Kids nationwide.
The Miss Kansas competition will be held June 6th-8th in Pratt, Kansas.
Danielle is the only contestant running on an agriculture platform.
Danielle says being a part of the Miss Kansas competition is about agriculture having a presence and putting the spotlight on an industry that can help cultivate a healthy lifestyle for us all.
To get involved with Kernels for Kids, visit www.kernels4kids.com, where you will find instructions on how to make your local elevator a Kernels for Kids elevator.
The website also provides a link on how to donate and get involved even if you do not have bushels of grain to give.

U.S. Highway 61 will be closed for over a month in the vicinity of 250th Street in Wyoming for an improvement project being administered jointly by the city of Wyoming and the Minnesota Department of Transportation. The closure takes effect Monday, Aug. 20 and the highway will re-open by Sept. 21. The project is estimated to wrap up by Oct. 5.
Improvements include the addition of left turn lanes, a bypass lane for southbound traffic on the highway at 267th Street, and closure of the Fenwick access at Highway 61. The city has received funding from MNDOT for the majority of the improvements. Forest Lake Contracting, Inc. will carry out the work.
Northbound traffic will be detoured west on Highway 8 to Exit 131 to Broadway Avenue (CO-2). From there, the route follows northbound Interstate 35 until Exit 135. Traffic will then follow CO-22 to Viking Boulevard, which connects with Highway 61.
Drivers en route to Fairview Lakes Medical Center should then drive south on Highway 61 to Fairview Boulevard. Southbound access to the hospital is unchanged.
Southbound traffic on Highway 61 will be detoured east on Viking Boulevard to southbound I-35. Drivers will exit on Broadway Avenue and take the ramp for northbound I-35. From there, the route follows Exit 132 and goes eastbound on Highway 8. The route then follows the exit for NW Second Street, which connects with Highway 61.

Xbox 360's Netflix 'Exclusive Partnership' is Nothing New
Microsoft has used the term "exclusive partnership" for more than one year in regards to Xbox 360's Netflix streaming.
Microsoft has used the term "exclusive partnership" for more than one year in regards to Xbox 360's Netflix streaming.
Cyber pandemonium ensued after Microsoft issued an update to its Xbox Live dashboard, which included some enhancements to its Netflix streaming service.
Microsoft's use of "exclusive partnership" in describing its "watch instantly" Netflix capability caused the uproar. One could infer that the Nintendo Wii and Sony PS3 won't be offering Netflix's increasingly popular "watch instantly" feature anytime soon.
Kyle Orland of Crispy Gamer points out that Microsoft, however, has been using the term "exclusive partnership" for more than one year. Orland points out this section from a July 14, 2008 press release announcing Netflix streaming on Xbox Live:
"At the E3 Media and Business Summit, Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq "MSFT") and Netflix, Inc. (Nasdaq: NFLX), the world's largest online movie rental service, today unveiled an exclusive partnership to offer consumers the ability to instantly stream movies and TV episodes from Netflix to the television via the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system. Xbox 360 will be the only game system that lets users instantly watch movies and TV episodes streamed from Netflix."
Here's what Microsoft writes in its Xbox Live dashboard update:
This exclusive partnership offers you the ability to instantly stream movies and TV episodes from Netflix to the television via Xbox 360. Xbox 360 will be the only game console to offer this movie-watching experience, available to Xbox LIVE Gold members who are also Netflix unlimited plan subscribers**, at no additional cost.
From the Netflix Web site, simply add movies and TV episodes to your instant Queue, which will appear automatically on the TV screen via Xbox 360. Once selected, movies will begin playing in as little as 30 seconds. In addition to instantly streaming Netflix movies to the TV, Xbox LIVE Gold members can browse and rate movies, fast-forward, pause and rewind, all using either their Xbox 360 Controller or Universal remote.
It's kind of a stretch to call this news at this point.

Italian Law Student Is Selling Naked Pics Of Herself Over Facebook To Buy A New Moped
Times are hard. But one Italian law student whose moped is about to break is getting entrepreneurial: she's selling naked pictures of herself over Facebook to raise money for new wheels. The student known only as Mary posted a picture of herself holding a sign in Italian, which obscures her face but puts her lovely boobs on full display. She also posted fliers around her home city of Naples with her business deal. She's already sold quite a few naked pics, apparently! "I like to make photos and I want to have some fun this way," she wrote on Facebook. "Plus, my scooter is close to its end. … and I need to buy a new one, so why not?" Sounds fine to me. She's being upfront about what the wants the money for and she's keeping the buyers anonymous. Frankly, selling naked pics is a lot more honest than the way a lot of other people earn money. [New York Daily News]

Highly Recommended Product...
April 25, 2014
I've had mine for seven years now... If going out, with three individuals(including myself), on a single couple day camping trip? This is my "GO TO" tent... It's tough.... Fantastic quality... Though I would recommend investing in some better tent stakes... The Easton "backpacker" stakes are perfect for it.. For tie downs and all(including guy out lines)? Best figure purchasing 20 total stakes too(for total support)... I absolutely recommend this tent... As far as a ground cloth? I carry a poly tarp, but honestly? You really don't need one. The bathtub floor in this is "heavy duty".. If you do purchase a ground cloth? I'd go ahead and get 4 aluminum "J" stakes just to stake it down...
Pros:Excellent product overall. I'm fairly certain you'll be very happy if you decide to purchase this item.. Good ventilation characteristics, and it "CAN" be used year round.... Highly recommended... Poles are 6000 series aluminum poles.. A little bulkier, but by far superior for stabilization of this gem... I, for one prefer pole sleeves over pole clips just for one reason. Dependability....
Cons:Tent stakes supplied with it are no good... Order some Easton "Backpacker" series stakes (8")....

Negative Tent Attributes
August 3, 2013
It was very discouraging to have so many problems with the poles and inserting the poles into sleeves instead of using clips. You cannot put this tent up by yourself. You have to have someone help you, even when taking the tent down. Besides the problem with the poles, there is no provision for keeping the rain from entering the tent when you open the flap to go in or out. And then there's the zipper on the fly that leaked during a storm, the door that only opens near the floor and not to the side of the tent, and the anchor that holds down the rear vestibule is attached with plastic clips – not a good thing. And did I mention that the tent pegs are cheaply made and bend easily? Someone did not think these things through when designing this tent. This is not for backpacking because it's too heavy to carry.

Need More Vestibule Space
October 4, 2012
Though this quality, sturdy tent is great for four seasons, I've chosen a different Eureka design for my next tent. I found it inconvenient to enter the vestibule using the door that is hinged on the bottom; I tend to trip or track in more snow or moisture. Once I'm in, I don't always have enough room to turn around and zip the door before entering the sleeping area. One other inconvenience was having to push snow from off the top of the tent from the inside.

Lots of Room, Cozy
September 20, 2012
When needing to upgrade to a larger tent due to our expanding family, I stayed with Eureka and bought this tent. As with all Eurekas, this tent holds up strong in bad weather and keeps us cozy even in the Colorado mountain subfreezing climate. It seems that one of the pole straps may have been sewed in upside down, but we can't complain about the roominess inside.

Hump Back Tent
July 22, 2012
I'm a very experienced camper and hiker and have used tents for 32 years, so when I needed a new tent I went for the Assault Outfitter. The instructions were great and everything was going fine until I got to the last pole. There was a problem with one of the pre-bent poles and it took two of us to insert it. But the tent didn't sit right – it humped when it should have had a smooth clean arc. I prefer the heavy duty kinds of tents and this was very disappointing. I was able to return it and get my money back immediately, but there wasn't time to wait for another one to arrive before my climbing trip, so I had to purchase a different tent.

Heavy Duty, Dependable
December 20, 2011
Our family has always used heavy duty tents, and after children came our way we needed to start looking for a bigger tent. Our last tent was very rugged (with more than six camping trips each year it still performed strong), so we had high expectations for our new tent. After looking around for a while I decided on the Assault Outfitter 4. I have to say that this tent exceeded our expectations. Every piece is heavy duty and durable. The floor refused to tear after heavy use, the pole construction is solid (didn't budge in heavy winds), and the zippers and rain flaps kept water out excellently. This tent was easy to put up and easy to break down (although I would recommend some after-market stronger stakes for heavy duty use), and I plan to use it while hunting later this season. I can guarantee this tent is spacious and will last us for a while.

Water Tight, Windproof
September 22, 2011
I've used this tent for scouts year round at least once per month. It is so sturdy that I cannot feel the wind inside when there are 30 mph gusts outside. In driving rain it is water tight and poses no threat of discomfort. I recommend this Eureka tent to anyone.

Plastic Window Problem
April 30, 2011
This tent was an excellent purchase. After an initial problem with inserting the first pole, we've been able to set this up many times without any problems. There are many great features to this tent and it has withstood different terrains without being damaged, is water tight, and the heavy duty zippers work great. We've been using the back entrance mostly because I haven't been able to reach the zipper in the front vestibule. The vestibules are very spacious, though. Despite all the positive features, there is one thing I have to complain about. That is the plastic window on the fly sheet. It is cloudy so you can't see through it and it has developed several holes in it, thus causing leaks - a very disappointing turn of events. Eureka will only sew fabric over the window – not replace the plastic. Plus, it may not be covered by the warranty. And because it will take several weeks to repair plus the time it takes to ship it to New York and back, I won't be able to use it this summer. I really like this tent and would buy another one if it didn't have a plastic window. It is very discouraging to have your tent in repair for a whole summer and not get to use it.

Heavy-Duty Tent - Lousy Stakes
January 6, 2011
This is a great tent and I would recommend it, especially in heavy wind and rain, as it withstands adverse weather really well. And you stay very dry, although it can be hot in the summer. But I was able to work out the ventilation by working the vestibule in different ways. If you're able to carry a 13-pound heavy-duty tent on your back, then this is a great tent for backpacking. Otherwise, it may be a bit heavy for most people. It's easy to set up and the vestibules are spacious giving you lots of room for your gear and the sleeping area is adequate for four adults. The only disappointment was not enough stakes and they were flimsy. In a nutshell, my recommendation is to buy one – it's a good investment.

Very Rugged, Spacious
July 11, 2010
This tent is definitely rugged. I know someone else who owns this tent and after an entire weekend of heavy, heavy rain he said he was completely dry. I myself have encountered a multitude of storms while camping in the desert (including dust storms with winds over 50 MPH) and have never had a problem with stability. The two mesh doors ventilate very well, so the tent can stay cool. A couple of tiny problems would be that the doors can sometimes get in the way of where you step (they are attached to the bottom of the tent) and the logo can get hot after being in the sun for a long time. Make sure that you don't think of this tent as a light backpacking tent. It definitely is not something you would want to lug around for a while, but it is an excellent sturdy and spacious tent for heavy duty camping.

Easy Setup, Would Recommend
June 20, 2010
Anyone who is looking for a good tent to use in any season would do well to consider this tent. I chose this tent after looking around for a while and have not been disappointed with the quality. I was able to set up the tent quickly and easily and took it down just the same. I have had no problem using it in weather from 40F to 90F (although as you can imagine, above 80F it was still pretty hot). It hasn't leaked once since I have used it (I have used it in rain), and it is pretty great for my camping needs (although four people might be stretching it with trying to fit everything). If you have a heavy duty hiking backpack I suppose you could use it while backpacking, but it can be on the heavy side. This tent allowed me to start camping again after a 25 year break and has served me well.

Sturdy, Packs up Tight
April 18, 2010
Overall I liked this tent. As with all tents, sleeps four is only for people willing to sleep really close to each other, but for a couple people and maybe a child this tent is great. I have slept in high winds before with no problems whatsoever, and although you only have to use four pegs to get the tent tied down, you can use all ten if needed. When all packed up I can fit it easily into one of the compartments on my car, so it is easy to store and transport. There is plenty of space in the tent for changing or whatever else you need to do, and the front flap over the door will keep out normal rain easily. Watch out for the door since it is attached to the bottom and you can easily step on it when it is unzipped.

Four Season Tent
August 10, 2009
I can say that this Assault Outfitter tent is of fine quality and is very durable – compared to other tents - for tenting in rugged terrain and all weather camping. This is not a lightweight tent because it's bulky, and some would say it's not for backpacking. But if you are strong and able to carry 13 pounds on your back, this is a great tent to hike with. It's spacious for two large people and has lots of room for your gear besides. So if you want a tent that will withstand heavy use, then this one is for you.

Canoeing on the Clarion River
Canoeing, Kayaking and Innertubing the Clarion River
To say that canoeing is big on the Clarion River would be an understatement. For almost 30 years visitors to Cook Forest have enjoyed taking upriver canoe trips with the area's canoe liveries. Innertubing has become very popular too in the warmer months. Most recently, kayakers are taking to the Clarion. Whatever your choice, all can be rented locally.
There are numerous canoe rentals in the area which offer unguided canoe, innertube and kayak trips on the Clarion River. The river is relatively safe, even for the inexperienced. The rapids are mild (Class I) at normal water levels. Patrons are transported up river to the drop off point and journey down the river, ending up at Cook Forest. Trips from Cook Forest to the Clarion River Dam at Clarion can be arranged also. The river varies in depth from 6 inches to about 8 feet at the deepest, until entering the backwaters of the Clarion Dam.
Day trip lengths range anywhere from 4 miles (about 1-1.5 hrs.) to 16
miles (all day) and suffice for those simply wanting to get out and enjoy
the sun. For the more adventurous, overnight
trips are also available, ranging from 16 to 37 miles in length.

The U.S. Department of Labor today awarded a $3,330,000 National Emergency Grant increment to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry to assist the commonwealth with continuing clean-up and recovery efforts following Hurricane Irene, which struck Aug. 26-30, 2011, and Tropical Storm Lee, which struck Sept. 3, 2011. The funds will support temporary jobs in affected areas.
"Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee have inflicted widespread damage on parts of Pennsylvania," said Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis. "The Labor Department's grant increment will fund assistance for recovery efforts in the communities touched by these devastating storms."
On Sept. 3, 2011, the Federal Emergency Management Agency declared a number of Pennsylvania counties eligible for FEMA's Public Assistance Program in response to Hurricane Irene. On Sept. 12, 2011, FEMA issued a second declaration for counties impacted by Tropical Storm Lee. More information on designated disaster areas is available from FEMA at http://www.fema.gov/news/eventcounties.fema?id=15592 and http://www.fema.gov/news/eventcounties.fema?id=15712.
The commonwealth of Pennsylvania targeted the following counties to receive assistance under this grant: Bradford, Bucks, Columbia, Lancaster, Luzerne, Lycoming, Mifflin, Montour, Northumberland, Schuylkill, Snyder, Sullivan, Susquehanna, Tioga, Union and Wyoming. An initial grant of up to $10,000,000, with $3,330,000 released initially, was approved by the Labor Department on Sept. 26, 2011. With the increment released today, the total amount awarded to date is $6,660,000.
National Emergency Grants are part of the secretary of labor's discretionary fund and are awarded based on a state's ability to meet specific guidelines. For more information, visit http://www.doleta.gov/NEG/.

Basically Fedora runs pretty nicely on this machine. A few small tricks are needed as described here. Complete installation should take you about an hour.
As usual, these notes are merely a document of things that worked for me. There's no guarantee they will work for you, and there are some things you could do while installing Linux that would really mess up your computer bad. I'm not aware of anything that will do that other than flashing your BIOS, which I don't recommend, but hey, you never know. You have been warned. All opinions expressed here are those of the author and are not necessarily shared by the University of Michigan.
Windows came in a 60GB NTFS partition, which I resized to 15GB. There was another empty 10GB NTFS partition, which I deleted. Also there was a 5GB FAT partition. This partition contains an entire spare copy of Windows XP, in case you need to reinstall Windows. (Sharp provides this instead of a Windows CD.) The standard boot loader on the computer can reinstall Windows for you from this partition. (I think you hit F10.) However, installing Linux overwrites the standard boot loader with the Linux boot loader, which means you will no longer be able to reinstall Windows this way after you have installed Linux. To get around this, you can make a Windows recovery disk (actually four CDs), which as far as I know contains a complete copy of what's in the utility partition, and allows you to reinstall Windows at any later time. To create a recovery disk, get four blank CDs, boot Windows, and then follow the instructions contained in the computer manual. Once you create a recovery disk the reinstall-Windows-from-hard-disk-partition option is disabled anyway, so you might as well delete the utility partition, which is what I did, or you can reinstall Windows from the recovery disk, which deletes the partition for you.
This left me with 65GB of free space for Linux.
I did a network install using the basic boot CD, but installing from DVD should be very similar. I had to change the boot order in the BIOS to get the machine to boot from the CD drive – hit F2 as the computer is booting and use common sense. Then stick the disk in the drive and fire it up.
For some reason the Fedora 8 installer hangs on this computer, but there is
a simple fix: edit the boot options on first start-up and add the options
floppy.allowed_drive_mask=0 clocksource=acpi_pm. I have no
idea why this works – neither option sounds particularly promising
– but various people found that this works on other computers and it
does with this one too.
After that things proceed as normal. When you get to the part about partitioning the disk, you can accept the default partitioning or you may want to do a manual partitioning yourself, which is what I did. I made a 100MB /boot partition on /dev/sda2, a 1GB swap partition on /dev/sda3, and then an extended partition holding 10GB for / and the rest on /home.
The installer will also ask you about the boot loader. At this point click
the advanced options box, and when you get the advanced options screen
there's a box for general kernel options. Here you should type
ide0=noprobe ide1=noprobe. Without this, the DVD-ROM drive
doesn't work properly.
The rest of the installation is vanilla. When it's done installing it'll reboot and the first time it boots it will run through some setup stuff – creating a user account and so forth. After that you're done! Congratulations. You've installed Linux.
rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-8.rpmas root and you're good to go. (If you don't have a network connection, then you can't do this. On the other hand, if you don't have a network connection, then you can't use Livna at all. Or yum for that matter.)
Then you might want to update everything to the newest version. Type
yum update and wait a couple of hours.
In addition I installed a bunch of other things that I consider useful, including xfig, gv, xdvik, inkscape, scribus, acroread, amarok, mpg321, mplayer-gui, xemacs, ddd, octave, fftw, blas, lapack, grace, labplot, flash-plugin, sshfs, xcdroast, and audacity. (Note that acroread and flash-plugin have to be downloaded direct from Adobe, which provides them in the form of convenient RPM files for direct install on Fedora. Just do a Google search and you'll find them.) I also removed totem, which is mostly worthless and causes some annoying problems for playing media files.
Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown Vendor" ModelName "Generic Monitor" Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT,LFP" Option "Clone" "true" EndSectionIt can go after the "Device" section, for example. Then add the single line
Monitor "Monitor0" to the "Screen" section in the same
file. This fixes the problem with the image displacing to the left and
also sets the external video connection to be on by default. If you later
want to turn the external connection off for some reason, you can use the
which allows you to turn it on and off with a simple command.
Option "HorizScrollDelta"
"0". I also found the mouse buttons too fussy about timing when I
was clicking both to emulate the middle button, so I added
"EmulateMidButtonTime" "100" in the same place.
install gtk-qt-engine. After installation you'll find you have a
new menu item in the KDE Control Center under Appearance & Themes/GTK
Styles and Fonts. Select this and click the buttons for "Use my KDE style
in GTK applications" and "Use my KDE fonts in GTK applications". Then
Firefox and friends will look just like everything else, fonts and all. Or
you can select your own style, fonts, and sizes if you prefer.
That's about it. Overall, I really like this machine – it's very nice to use, has an excellent screen, it's fast, light, and well designed. I'd certainly recommend it if you're looking for a sleek and portable Linux machine.

Why Gaga Believes In Yoga's Higher Healing Power (EXCLUSIVE)
The Mother Monster has risen. No, we're not talking about Lady Gaga's meteoric rise to fame, but she's finally back on her feet after hip surgery – and she has yoga to thank for it.
The songstress was spotted out of her wheelchair and ditching those exaggerated platforms for more post-surgery appropriate kitten heels to take a class at Tricia Donegan's NYC Bikram yoga studio, Celebuzz confirmed, where she's been finding her chi – and now regaining her strength.
"Many clients come in with physical injuries and mentally empowered. And once you start practicing, the whole system is empowered," Donegan told Celebuzz.
Bikram, she says, is based on Hatha Yoga or hot yoga — which is often used to reduce stress and regain strength to overcome health challenges.
"It compresses certain organs, you hold it and let go. It flushes all the blood and oxygen and nutrients," she added.
"Certain postures are used for certain parts of the body and benefits, and you string them together and it connects your brain to do something with your body.
"I'm a huge believer that with your brain and body connected, that's a huge part of healing," Donegan said.
Although Donegan wouldn't comment on the pop star's recovery, Gaga has done her body good with yoga for years.
"Gaga said to me, 'To jog your memory, I confided in you and cried in your lap about a food problem I was having,'" Donegan told DNAinfo in 2010. "She told me I had talked to her about the proper hydration and proper nutrition necessary to having enough energy and strength."
But the 26-year-old singer, who has been open about suffering from bulimia and anorexia since she was 15, confessed to owing more than just her healthy lifestyle to the yoga guru.
Today, Gaga has launched her new movement, "A Body Revolution 2013," to encourage body image acceptance.
And for her, there's no place like yoga to help her mind and body.
"I'm excited to embark on an even deeper journey," she wrote to Donegan in a note she penned in 2010. "You are such an inspiration… W more hydration + sleep. Yoga heals me + so do you."
Take a look at Gaga in fine yoga form back in 2010 alongside Donegan in the photos above.
How do you think Gaga is on a path to recovery using yoga? Let us know your thoughts below.

A RYDER Cup flag signed by the victorious 2012 European Team is being auctioned for charity in Swindon.
Caddy Jason Hempleman, 39, from Old Town, assisted Italian Francesco Molinari at last year's competition in the USA.
He witnessed first hand the so-called Miracle of Medinah, when the European team stormed to victory after trailing the Americans.
Jason, himself an accomplished golfer who has represented both Wiltshire and the South West, personally gathered the signatures of Jose Maria Olazabal, Nicolas Colsaerts, Peter Hanson, Lee Westwood, Graeme McDowell, Ian Poulter, Justin Rose, Sergio Garcia, Rory McIlroy, Luke Donald, Paul Lawrie, Martin Kaymer and, of course, Francesco Molinari.
He has decided to auction the flag in aid of Swindon Down's Syndrome Group.
Jason said: "I wanted to auction the flag to raise money for charity, and Swindon Down's Syndrome Group is a very worthy cause.
"To get these signatures on an official flag like this is quite a rare thing, and it's surely a collectors' item."
Jason believes the flag would be the showpiece of any fan's memorabilia collection or an ideal disaplay item for a company or sports club.
He has opted for a closed bid auction using a specially-created email address.
Anybody who wants the chance to to own this piece of history and raise money for Swindon Down's Syndrome Group at the same time should send their bid to email@example.com

Apple to ship only 8 million iPad mini tablets in Q4 2012?
0. phoneArena posted on 26 Dec 2012, 02:56
The 7.9-inch iPad mini might not have seen the lines most recent Apple launches have been accompanied with, but nonetheless the affordable tablet…
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. MeoCao (unregistered)
8 millions is not bad number and I guess that the most Apple could sell and not b-c of demand problems.
Interesting how many Nexus 7 were sold in Q4.
3. darkkjedii (Posts: 24943; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
How do u know it wasnt ?
8. KRONeage (Posts: 144; Member since: 17 Apr 2011)
First off; Apple's use of twisted information by combining sales of all iPads on the launch of iPad Mini and iPad Standard Original V4 was a horrific admission that they didn't sell as many as they expected. Only mindless dolts and Wall Street Analysts (Anal... ists) believe consumers all fell for that.... as if 3 million was all iPad Mini. When they had no customers waiting in lines, besides Shills and iFanatical customer plants! :D
As for Nexus 7? .....suppliers made 4 Million the first quarter on sale and sold them all by end of of September. When a new order and expected sales for this last quarter (Dec Q4) could add as many as 5 Million.
So no matter what, because Google was smart enough to get a full quarter jump on Apple, expect Nexus 7 to have outsold iPad Mini for 2012! ^_*
2. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
Ok but how much was big and small comnbined? If small sold less due to shortage of supplies (just a cover up) then bigegr should have sold more unless the ipad market share has taken a beating overall :)
4. ncv144 (Posts: 126; Member since: 04 May 2012)
Oh shut up! i havent heard one report of shortages since the mini came out. Also havent heard reports of grand sales
5. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
Uh...were you reading any news for the first month it launched? Here...
YAY for Google...
6. JunitoNH (Posts: 1934; Member since: 15 Feb 2012)
Really, try buying a white mini, good luck with that one.
7. KRONeage (Posts: 144; Member since: 17 Apr 2011)
When are people going to wake up? This style of marketing your item as short on supply, to get more sales is a tactic as old as the hills and twice as iDusty! :D ......gyspy con artists (barkers) and Info-mercial iMarketing was not invented by Steve Jobs.
He only mastered the Snake In the Grass Art of increasing sales, using Customer Super Fan Dolts, Magical Hidden Lies w/Doublethink mis-information about competition and now iRevolutionary ploy of using shills..... in the crowd to kick off FAD buying frenzies for a "Hurry.... buy one now" before they're all out! hahaha.....
.....yeah as if Used Car/Horse/camel Salesmen, Drug Dealers, Pimps and Hoes haven't been using these tactics for ages!!! ;-P

Dianna Agron Explains Why She Keeps Her Private Life Private
The gorgeous Glee star graces the cover of September's Cosmopolitan Magazine, and opened up to the publication about why she wants to keep what goes on offscreen under wraps — even using the often troubled Lindsay Lohan as a reference.
"It's really sad looking at people like Lindsay Lohan. She's an amazing actress, but you see what happens when people know too much about your personal life. They start not being able to look at you the same way professionally. I don't want that to happen to me."
While she has been linked to actors such as Chris Evans and Sebastian Stan as of late, we have a feeling that's all we're really going to know.
Dianna also chatted about her secret to success, what she finds sexy and reveals one thing she's never done in bed. Pick up the latest issue of Cosmo when it hits stands on Tuesday August 16!

Bigfoot Update (and a Shameless Plug)
Thanks to Vince Keenan for the link.
Report of strange animal draws Bigfoot hunters: "WEST BEND - The jury is still out as to the identity of a large creature spotted near Station Way in the town of Erin on Nov. 9.
At around 1 a.m., a man contracted to pick up animal carcasses for the state Department of Natural Resources stopped his truck on Highway 167, about a third of a mile east of Station Way to load a deer. As he sat in the cab filling out the necessary paperwork, he felt the truck rock and checked his mirror, seeing an animal reaching for the doe with its front paws.
The incident, which some suggest could have involved Bigfoot, touched off a media frenzy, bringing in hunters from as far away as California."

Shameless is as shameless does...whatever that means. Anyhow, this should make the world realize you knew what you were doing when you wrote that plot. Hope your book sells a million, I enjoyed it.

Thanks, Lonnie. Even half a million would be okay.

I like this article. I found it amusing and light with usable ideas. Is there any work on ideas for players to use to stall an adventure so they can take a break? I know everyone can really get wrapped up into a game, and no one wants to take a break in the middle of the action just because one of the other players needs to run to the bathroom.
I've missed out on some fun gaming sessions because I needed to take a break. I know stopping the game would not have been fair to the other players when the action is getting intense, but some players may have to bow out for several minutes, or fifteen if they have medical issues.
I can see this taking on a life of it's own. Literally. As Valadaar suggested, what if someone animated the beard?
Or if there was a parasite that mimicked the Beard of the Magus in appearance? It could feed off of the host's energy.
Beware of the Beard.
I was not sure of how this piece was going to be received when I posted it. It is a pleasant surprise to come back several years later and see that people like it. Thank you. It makes coming back to the Citadel easier after being gone so long.
I have missed all of you and look forward to rejoining the community.
I have experienced the game enhancing nature of music while gaming. During one of the long running campaigns by Scrasamax, the other players were overwrought by the death of a beloved NPC and very nearly demanded a funeral service to be played out. It took some planning, but when the game resumed, there was music and crying.
The music was Ghost in the Shell soundtrack. "M01 Chant I - Making of Cyborg" – 4:31
There was a memorial service for the NPC, several PCs got up and spoke. There was a funeral procession, and one of the PCs even made a special crafted adornment for the NPCs crypt.
It was an interesting night to say the least. The music made it even more memorable.
Instead of CDs, the music was played on the nearby computer via Napster.
I find this thread to be very useful. It also gives more insight to the GM I know. As a player, it was easy to get wrapped up in the game and not understand how much effort went in to making it work. There were even game sessions on the fly. And there were spin-off games to the main game plot. When a few members of the group got together (an unplanned gathering) and wanted to play, we had secondary characters and plots that ran beside the main game. And when the main group got back together, sometimes we ran into the mess left behind by our other characters.
It was a lot of fun. But not easy.
And when there was a breakdown in the group, the GM handled it well. The game continued on, and eventually the group would get over whatever issues had cropped up. Then, the groups would merge back together and continue on. We would have new things to talk about, like some of the things we had encountered while seperated. It gave the game a deeper, richer enviroment to play in.
And we learned how to adapt to the diversity of the group.

Given a chance to revise and extend its 9:58 a.m. report (covered this afternoon at NewsBusters; at BizzyBlog) on the June 13 altercation between Wisconsin Supreme Court Judges David Prosser, Jr. and Ann Walsh Bradley, the Associated Press's 5:29 p.m. version persists in telling its national audience only one side of the story.
Although the fact is that accounts as to who was the aggressor completely differ, the wire service's oddly unbylined story (a 650-word AP item usually has a byline -- it's almost as if someone doesn't want their name on it) will cause its readers, including subscribing news outlets around the country, to believe that the only open question is whether and how hard Prosser choked Bradley. One suspects that AP's "fairness" defense will be the employment of these three words in Paragraph 8: "While accounts differ ..." Sorry guys, that doesn't cut it when the accounts are totally opposite.
Here are excerpts from that AP report (saved here for future reference, fair use and discussion purposes):
A member of the Wisconsin Supreme Court's liberal faction has accused a conservative justice of choking her during an argument in her office earlier this month - a charge he denied.
Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that Justice David Prosser put her in a chokehold during the dispute. She contacted the newspaper late Saturday after Prosser denied rumors about the altercation.
"The facts are that I was demanding that he get out of my office and he put his hands around my neck in anger in a chokehold," Bradley told the newspaper.
... The argument took place June 13, the day before the court, in a 4-3 decision that included a blistering dissent, ruled that Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi overstepped her authority when she declared the polarizing union law void. While accounts differ, the justices were apparently discussing the decision and its timing.
The AP ignored the opposing version of the story which appeared early Saturday evening at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, even though the time stamp on the wire service's report is over 20 hours later, and even though it was an earlier Journal Sentinel report which formed the basis for both the current story and the AP's coverage this morning (bolds are mine):
... another source told the Journal Sentinel that Bradley attacked Prosser.
"She charged him with fists raised," the source said.
Prosser "put his hands in a defensive posture," the source said. "He blocked her."
In doing so, the source said, he made contact with Bradley's neck.
... Another source said the justices were arguing over the timing of the release of the opinion, which legislative leaders had insisted they needed by June 14 because of their work on the state budget. As the justices discussed the case, Abrahamson said she didn't know whether the decision would come out this month, the source said.
At that point, Prosser said he'd lost all confidence in her leadership. Bradley then came across the room "with fists up," the source said. Prosser put up his hands to push her back.
Bradley then said she had been choked, according to the source. Another justice - the source wouldn't say who - responded, "You were not choked."
Ed Morrissey at Hot Air raised an important point about the Bradley-as-aggressor version which I overlooked earlier today relating to the words bolded in the above excerpt:
... that looks like two sources for the JSO version supporting Prosser and one for the WW version supporting Bradley as the victim.
Madison, Wisconsin blogger Ann Althouse has also made this inconvenient (for Bradley's defenders) "two vs. one" point.
"WW" is WisconsinWatch.org, aka "The nonprofit Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism ... which also collaborates with Wisconsin Public Television, the UW-Madison School of Journalism and Mass Communication and other news media." WW originally "broke" Bradley's side of the story (including the Journal Sentinel's first version), while "somehow" not learning of the alternative version of events.
WW's work has been exposed as incomplete at the very least and arguably agenda-driven.
Meanwhile, as the AP refuses to acknowledge what appears to be the majority argument in favor of Prosser's version of events, I believe I have uncovered a clue as to the unbylined item's author in this paragraph from the story:
Leaders in the Republican-controlled Legislature had pushed for a decision by June 14 because they were working on the state budget, and Walker's proposal depended on expected savings from the law. Along with limiting most public employees' bargaining rights, it requires them to pay 12 percent of their health insurance costs and 5.8 percent of their pension costs.
That paragraph repeats a drop-dead obvious mischaracterization of the bill's provisions -- affected employees will really pay 5.8% of their gross pay into the state's retirement system, not 5.8% of the related costs -- which was present in a June 15 AP report on public-sector unions' filing of a lawsuit attempting to overturn the related law, commonly known as the "Budget Repair bill."
That report was authored by the AP's Scott Bauer. If it's his work , it would not exactly be out of character for Bauer, whose reportage in the four months since the confrontations over the bill began has been consistently anti-Walker and pro-public sector union, to ignorantly or deliberately leave out Prosser's defense.

Photos In Trayvon Martin Case Ignite Debate
March 28, 2012 by staff
Photos In Trayvon Martin Case Ignite Debate, First it was the hoodie. Now photographs used in the media's coverage of the Trayvon Martin killing are the subject of widespread debate, as supporters of both the slain 17-year-old African-American and the shooter, George Zimmerman, say selectivity by some news outlets in which photos they use is proof of bias.
"Since the controversy began," Jeff Weiner wrote in the Orlando Sentinel, "some bloggers and many website commenters have questioned why the primary images of Trayvon in the media have shown him younger than he was when he was killed at age 17."
The initial image of Martin-released by his family and widely used by media outlets covering the racially charged case-appears to show him at a younger age.
On Wednesday, the website Business Insider came under fire for posting a pair of what it claimed were more recent photos of Martin. The site later removed the photos after it was revealed that one, taken from a neo-Nazi website, was not Martin.
A second, purportedly showing Martin with what appear to be gold teeth, was thought to be taken from Martin's now-closed Twitter account. Numerous media outlets, including the Drudge Report and Yahoo News, used the photo in coverage of the case.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow
Review by mental_dante
"Being a shadow is even better in Pandora Tomorrow"
In this review, I'm not going to score each segment. I will put my thoughts and let you decide.
Splinter Cell: a game completely about stealth. It's about being a shadow, getting the job done and getting out without leaving any trace of yourself behind.
Game play: The game play is amazing. You can choose from multiple routes, such as scaling the side of a building and creeping across the rooftops, or sneaking around in the shadows down on the ground. (Note: Shadows are your best friend. ;p)
You have two guns the SC-20K M.A.W.S. (Modular Assault Weapon System) and a pistol. The pistol is equipped with a laser site for increased accuracy. The SC-20K is equipped with a multi-purpose launcher you use that to fire all your gadgets.
The gadgets you can use vary from a sticky shocker that incapacitates your enemy to a sticky camera that is used for surveillance.
Graphics: The graphics are truly stunning; rich, clear textures, ripples in the water, leaves and bushes blowing in the wind, and great shadows make the game look spectacular.
Controls: The controls are near perfect. They're the same (in some ways) as SOCOM's (another great game). Left analog stick is move, right is look around. The whistling feature added in this instalment opens up a whole new segment to stealth. Say there's two guards in a room, you can draw both guards out of the well lit room, into a dark hallway and off them nether of the guards will know what's happening.
Sounds: From guards making conversation, to the floor boards creaking, the sounds are clear and crisp. There isn't much to say except that the sounds are very close to (if not) perfect.
Re-playability: There are so many ways that you can complete a level, you can spend hours upon hours of completing the level in a different ways and confronting the enemies differently. The online feature also adds a lot of extra time you can get out of this game.
Online: The amount of players you can have in a game at a time is 4; you can play two spies, two mercenaries, or, if one of you is brave enough, you can play 3 Vs. 1
Spies don't have any lethal weapons, but they can use the enemy as a human shield of break their neck. The Merc's have many weapons they can use to try and kill the spies, however they aren't as stealthy, and the camera view is first person.
Conclusion: If you like being a ghost's shadow, and stopping terrorists using amazing stealth moves, this game is a must...

Floresville girls fall to Victoria East
Published 11:35 pm, Friday, February 3, 2012
The Floresville boys team had set the tone for a dramatic night, with Jaron Medina hitting a 3-pointer in overtime at the buzzer to beat Victoria East in the first game at Floresville High School on Friday.
For the finale, the Floresville girls tried to follow suit, coming back from a double-digit deficit to force overtime against East.
But the Jaguars couldn't close the deal, falling 87-80 to the Titans on senior night.
"Our girls had plenty of chances to quit, but they never did," Floresville coach Greg McWilliams said. "We never let up, and I'm proud of that."
Sports Channel
Senior guard Erica Hernandez scored 30 points, but it wasn't enough to overcome Floresville's 24 turnovers.
The No. 6 Jaguars (26-4, 7-2 District 30-4A) had two costly turnovers to start overtime that put them into a seven-point hole. They couldn't get closer than six points the rest of the game.
The lopsided ending didn't match the tense back-and-forth in regulation.
Floresville fell behind by 13 in the second quarter, but ended the half on an 8-0 run to cut East's lead to 40-35.
Hernandez, who scored just eight points in the first half, caught fire in the second. She spurred a 9-2 fourth-quarter run with consecutive coast-to-coast layups and a 3-pointer to give the Jaguars their first lead since midway through the first.
The Titans took a 68-66 lead with 48 seconds left before Shelby Leinwebber tied it with a layup after a Hernandez miss.
Floresville appeared to have put it away when Liesel Raabe made a steal at midcourt and passed to Hernandez for the go-ahead layup and foul with 13 seconds remaining.
But Hernandez missed the free throw, then East's Sonya Acuna slipped past the defense for a quick layup to force overtime.
"We just had problems getting back on defense," Hernandez said. "She got through."
Acuna finished with 19 points. Adelaide Wenzel led East with 24, including eight in overtime.
The loss stung a little extra for Floresville. District-leading East already had beaten the Jagaurs this season and eliminated them from the playoffs in 2011.
The Jags already are thinking about a potential rematch in the regional final.
"The third one is the only one that matters," Hernandez said. "We're planning on it."

Pet lovers rejoice! And since Downtown LA is chock-full of residents with their furry pets, there should be quite a few downtowners happy to see that Petco has finally opened their doors for business this past week selling everything a pet owner could possibly need. It's also another sign that large chains, who once shunned downtown, are finally beginning to see Downtown LA as a viable and desirable location to open their stores in.

Petco Unleashed Store Coming to South Park in Downtown LA
With literally thousands of pets living in DTLA, it's kind of surprising there aren't more pet stores scattered all around downtown, especially in the South Park and Financial District neighborhoods where a large concentration of residents live. Well, that's about to change. Soon downtown residents will have a new place to shop catering to their furry friends when Unleashed by Petco opens later this year in South Park.

Merm's Potato Cheese Soup With Green Chilies
Recipe by Sooz Cooks
One taste of this soup at my grandparents' then favorite Mexican restaurant in Tucson - Molina's - and my mom (whose grandchildren called Merm) had to make her own. This is how she made hers and actually everyone liked Mom's version (made with love) better than Molina's. This is pure comfort food for my Dad and for me and we chat about memories of my beloved Mother as we eat. Serve with fresh warm flour tortillas for dipping and of course a nice Mexican beer.
Top Review by DailyInspiration
This soup made a great lunch today! DH & I both enjoyed it very much and we loved the addition of the green chiles. I made a few changes by adding some bacon to the onion and garlic and I used less green chiles - 12 oz. vs. 27 oz. -- I would have used more, but didn't have them on hand. I used a more potatoes and stock as well just to stretch the soup. Will definitely make this delicious soup again.

The essentially private concern of parenting has always been subject to outside influences. Whether from the mostly comforting but sometimes choking attention of the village or the moral direction of church or other religious institutions, help (or interference) has never been far away. The state's intervention is more recent, especially in its attempts to redistribute tax revenue to help overcome the severest economic disadvantage of the poorest families.
No matter how persistent the failure of government intervention to improve family life, the pressure to seek state solutions to private problems never wanes. In this present age of the pursuit of the perfect lifestyle, this pressure is increasing. The belief in the individual's right to perfection in every detail of everyday life, and a corresponding impatience with anything less, collides - often unhappily - with the stressful realities of family life. This may help explain continuing high divorce rates, which have led to a 53 per cent rise in the number of one-parent families in Australia since the mid-1980s.
Mothers of young children have been working to support their families for generations. At no time, however, has there been more intense scrutiny of the effects on children when their mothers work or more discussion of how to balance work and family.
Now, the Federal Government is considering a proposal to provide mothers with children under five a tax-free annual salary of $10,700 plus a $3000 subsidy for each child. Lucy Sullivan, working for the Liberal Party think-tank the Menzies Research Centre, has calculated the cost of replacing existing benefits with a "mother's" salary of $10,691 - equal to the existing parenting payment and family tax benefit part B - and a $3029 subsidy for each child under five. The fact that Ms Sullivan's calculations have been with cabinet since December 2002 and not been acted upon may suggest that the idea has no chance of implementation. Yet it would be premature to dismiss it. It is close to Labor's work and family policies, but may yet find favour with the Government, despite its longstanding opposition to any form of universal paid maternity leave.
The Government has so far opposed universal paid maternity leave because it discriminates against mothers who choose to stay at home. The idea of a mother's salary would avoid that question. The tax-free payment could be used for child care if the mother chose to return to work, or to supplement the family income if she remained at home.
The proposal is not without difficulties. Its cost would not be met wholly by the $18.1 billion a year now paid in existing benefits, which it would replace. It would require between $1.6 billion and $5.45 billion a year more, depending on the amount of the subsidy paid. There will inevitably be concerns that the salary will not only help mothers achieve a better balance between work and family, but may also encourage some women - especially the young and financially insecure - to venture into single motherhood and long-term welfare dependency.
The old adage "good fences make good neighbours" assumes the barrier in question usefully defines the ownership of two adjoining pieces of land. The problem with Israel's security wall through the West Bank is that it defies this basic principle of territory. The partially constructed barrier of concrete walls, metal fences and razor wire does not delineate an envisaged political border between Israel and a future independent Palestinian state. Rather, it veers - in parts - deep into occupied Palestinian territory, separating Palestinian communities from their farmlands and basic services such as hospitals and schools.
Israel's justification for the 750-kilometre or so barrier - less than 200 kilometres has already been constructed - is simple. It is needed to prevent the movement of Palestinian suicide bombers who have killed more than 900 Israelis since hostilities escalated in late 2000 and is a proportionate response consistent with Israel's right to self-defence. This, Israel argues, overrides the Geneva Convention rights of Palestinian civilians to freedom of movement and other protections in times of war.
Israel's decision to boycott a hearing at the World Court in the Hague next week on the legality of the barrier is not surprising, though it is disappointing. Any physical barrier which impedes the movement of one group of people inevitably becomes a highly emotive symbol for their cause. The World Court case would be an opportunity for legal deliberation on its status, outside the relentless cycle of bloodshed. Given Israel's continued military occupation of large tracts of Palestinian land, the Palestinian legal team's desire for a ruling is not only reasonable but undercuts those extremists who advocate violence.
The United States, Britain, the European Union and Australia are supporting Israel's argument that the dispute is outside the World Court's jurisdiction, because the barrier does not run along the political border between two sovereign nations. This, they have been careful to point out, is not the same as endorsing Israel's right to continue construction. This week Britain unambiguously declared the barrier "unlawful" but like the US, said its status should become part of stalled peace negotiations.
Clearly, the wall is a symptom of the broader failure of peace efforts to date. Yet, without legal resolution - or swift action by Israel to make good on its promise to reconsider its route - it risks further fuelling the very violence it is designed to prevent.

Lot 109
1909 Indian 5 HP Light Twin
- Engine no. 20A352
Sold for $66,000
- First year of the loop frame
- Original factory paint
- Offered in operational running condition
During the first decade of America's fast-growing motorcycle industries existence, Indian swiftly emerged at the forefront as one of the more prominent makes. The company's participation in various sporting events rewarded them with valuable publicity, which, in turn, popularized their machines to the masses beyond the capabilities of production.
These first years saw the production motorcycle develop from not more than a motor-driven bicycle to rugged, reliable means of transportation. Progress was rampant, and the company's racing endeavors continued to fuel its advancement.
By 1909, the Indian lineup was entirely redesigned. The bicycle-inspired diamond frame was replaced with the more conventional loop frame, which had previously been fitted to the racing machines of the company's top riders. A new, streamlined torpedo-type gas tank was fitted between the upper and lower tank rails, and oil was carried in a large capacity half-gallon tank that was fixed to the frame beneath the seat. In addition to the improved 2.75-horsepower, single-cylinder model, two new twins were offered, the five horsepower, 38-cubic inch Light Twin and the sturdy seven-horsepower, 61-cubic inch Big Twin. Mechanical intake valves were also now standard equipment on all models.
This rare 1909 Indian Twin, formerly of the Jim Atchley Collection, is preserved in unrestored, original condition, and it still retains its unusual Green factory paint. The machine features the five-horsepower, 38-cubic inch, twin-cylinder, pocket-valve engine and its original Hedstrom carburetor and Bosch magneto. Other high-wear items, such as the seat, pedals, and grips, are also original to this machine. This remarkably preserved bike is among the earliest original twin-cylinder Indian motorcycles in existence.
AddendumPlease note this will be sold on a Bill of Sale only.
Please contact our exclusive automotive transportation partner, Reliable Carriers, for a shipping quote or any other information on the transport of this vehicle.

Assemblywoman Barbara Lifton Advances State Budget That Protects Working Families
March 31, 2009
Assemblywoman Barbara Lifton (D-Tompkins/Cortland) announced the Assembly will begin passage of the 2009- 2010 state budget on March 31. Budget bills have been introduced and are currently aging on legislators' desks. Noting the extraordinary economic challenges facing the nation, Assemblywoman Barbara Lifton said the $132 billion spending plan closes a projected $17.65 billion gap by raising $5.2 billion in revenue, implementing $5.1 billion in necessary spending cuts, utilizing $1.1 billion in non-recurring revenues and maximizing $6.2 billion in federal stimulus dollars. "This budget balances the need to take radical action to rescue the state's fiscal woes. It cuts over $5 billion, while preventing the deepest cuts to our schools and health care system and protecting our most vulnerable residents – our kids, seniors and the sick.", Assemblywoman Barbara Lifton said. Restoring $1.1 billion to school districts The 2009-2010 state budget continues the Assembly's commitment to providing a quality education for New York State's children despite tough economic times. The budget stabilizes aid to schools and reduces the burden on taxpayers by restoring $1.1 billion to school districts. "While, of course, I wish we could have done more for education in the budget, it could have been a total disaster for schools, students and taxpayers," Assemblywomen Barbara Lifton said. "Even during the worst economic downturn in decades, we maintained our strong commitment to educating our children and providing them with the tools and skills they will need to compete successfully for the jobs of the 21st century." The budget lifts the freeze on reimbursable expense-based aids, including transportation, building aid and BOCES – while ensuring school districts have access to the funds they need. Overall, schools will benefit by an estimated increase of $403 million over the 2008-2009 school year. Foundation aid for the 2009-2010 school year will remain at current levels. The Assembly continues its historic commitment to foundation aid by phasing in full funding over three years, a year earlier than the executive's proposal, starting in 2011-2012. The budget also uses federal funds to help local school districts over the next two years, including:
- $906 million in Title 1 funds, which is financial assistance for schools with high percentages of disadvantaged children, to help ensure all children meet the state's academic standards; and
- $794 million under the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA), ensuring that mandatory early intervention, special education and related services are provided to children with disabilities.
- $17.3 million for Operation IMPACT, which coordinates state, federal and local law enforcement in cities across New York;
- $21 million in federal assistance to support law enforcement, drug courts, drug treatment programs and alternatives to incarceration initiatives (ATI) in conjunction with enactment of Rockefeller Drug Law reform.

Bemidji State's ranked football team hosts Moorhead
The Bemidji State football team holds a 5-1 record entering Saturday's rivalry game against Minnesota State University, Moorhead at Chet Anderson Stadium at 1 p.m.
The season has entered the second half, the Beavers are tied for second in Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference standings and the national tournament is a possibility if the No. 23-ranked Beavers can continue to win games.
"I don't want to jinx it by talking about it and I think it's still a little too early to talk about it," Bemidji State head coach Jeff Tesch said. "Right now we obviously have to win this game or it won't mean anything. The way this season is going, it looks like you can't have more than two losses and be able to make the playoffs. The league is so balanced this year."
The margin of error will be small if the Beavers (5-1, 4-1 NSIC) hope to contend for a national playoff sport. BSU plays Moorhead (2-4, 1-4 NSIC), U-Mary, Northern State, St. Cloud State and Minnesota-Crookston to close out the season.
Northern and Crookston are winless in the NSIC, U-Mary is 2-3 in conference play and the Huskies are currently ranked No. 16 in the country.
"It is a realistic opportunity for us to make playoffs if we play the way we should," BSU offensive lineman Jordan Anderson said. "We've got to take care of business. Last year and this year we thought playoffs were a possibility because of the talent we have. It's all about executing on the field and taking the game plan forward. It seems like things are going our way this year."
BSU defeated Concordia-St. Paul 20-7 in the homecoming game last week. BSU struggled at times on both sides of the ball, but were led by strong performances from seniors including Brody Scheff's three-interception game.
The Beavers have found success running the ball and defending against the run this season.
The BSU offense has the most rushing touchdowns in NSIC play (18) and ranks second in average rushing yards per game at 249.
The BSU has the top scoring defense in the league, averaging just over 15 points allowed per game and a league-low 86.4 rushing yards per game.
BSU will need to improve in other areas to stay in playoff consideration. Tesch expressed concern for the defense's ability to make stops on third down and the lack of a consistent pass rush. He also wants the offense to be more balanced with a better passing attack.
"There's going to be a time where we're going to have to let the ball go but right now the offense is designed to keep the defense off the field," Tesch said.
The series between the Beavers and the Dragons dates back to 1929 and the two teams have played for the Battle Axe trophy since 1948. It is the second oldest trophy in Division II football.
The Beavers have won 10 of the last 11 meetings and this year Moorhead comes to Bemidji with new coach Steve Laqua. Tesch said the BSU defense will be challenged by some new looks from the Dragon offense and Anderson is expecting a challenge.
"The Axe game is a big rivalry," he said. "It always brings out the best in Moorhead and it always seems like they play us well no matter what kind of team they have. We know it's going to be a tough game and competitive."

The Robins travel to New Milton Town on Saturday and have a Hospital Cup quarter-final at home to Shaftesbury Town on Tuesday.
As well as the Downton clash, Verwood Town also saw their home game against GE Hamble postponed on Saturday. They head to Romsey on Saturday.
Their Forest rivals Ringwood Town did not need to make the trip to Fleet Spurs at the weekend, and they are set to host East Cowes Victoria this Saturday in Division One.
Laverstock & Ford's game at home to Petersfield Town was frozen off, and they travel to the Isle of Wight to take on Cowes Sports on Saturday. Amesbury Town's Friday night derby at Andover New Street was postponed, and they welcome Fleet to Bonnymead Park on Saturday.
