2 Beave (as he is known to his lodge posse) was born in Buffalo, New York back in the before-time when the beaver nation could speak. He learned the language of the Upright People and got his first job in commercial radio at the age of 19 (430 in beaver years).
He moved to Iowa, a place known to the beaver people as the land where nothing happens. And it didn't. He spent four years there working in both commercial and Public Radio. His time in Des Moines taught him a valuable lesson. Never live in a city that starts with "duh."
He moved with his wife and 18-month old daughter to Washington D.C. to work for NPR. Public Radio was under court order to improve its beaver hiring record. Beaver discrimination was rampant at the time and well-spoken beavers like 2 Beave had to fight negative stereotypes such as "beavers can't talk" and "they make good reporters but they eat the furniture."
He now lodges in Durham with his wife. He hosts a radio show called the State of Things on North Carolina Public Radio, WUNC. He loves talking to the Upright People who live here and says furniture is really tasty.
To beave er not to beave—that is the question
Whether tis nobler in the mind to build with sticks and mud or to
Murder the varmints with dynamite that they may build no more
To build—perchance to gnaw—aye there's the rub—
For in that dam doth lie an undiscovered country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns.
Unless he wears a snorkle which would make him conspicuous among the beavers—
And he would run from their lodge as the beavers pelted him with the spiney parts of long dead fish.
Thus cod fins doth make cowards of us all . . .
Damn those who would oppose our eager woodland friends because their lodges are here and there. Unruly, . . . unexpected . . . checkered threats to urban sprawl—they who cry---out out spot dam.
How easily I change from Hamlet to Macbeth—
Easier still to say—give me beave er give me death.

Magical Mystery Beaver is proud to be the house band for the Beaver Queen Pageant. These beavers got their start playing at night in the beaver pond on Avondale, the crickets and frogs their captive audience. One bright morning they crawled out of the pond, shed their sticks and went electric. The results have been fantastic, and the band has been doing a lot of woodshedding in preparation for the BQP.
Led by "the little dictator" Fidel Castoridae (vocals, trumpet, guitar), MMB's lineup features songs sung by rising stars Pearl Blade (who also plays congas and mandolin) and Dental Dam (who also plays tambourine and happens to be the band's dentist.) Aunt Betty Beaver shreds on rhythm guitar and is backed by the tightest rhythm section this side of the Cape Fear River Basin--Nolan Cleaver (drums, sticks) and Bucktooth Benson (bass.)
They look forward to rocking you with hits like "Black Magic Beaver;" "I can't get no Beaver Action;" "Psycho Beaver;" and "Beaver Queen."

Anita Whacker, of the Buford Dam Whackers, hails from the deep south wetlands. As a long-time debubeaver, Ms. Whacker has developed a sassy style all her own. At the age of four, she won the Little Miss Kit pageant and continued throughout her teens to rack up, er, collect numerous titles and crowns including Miss Dammit 1987 and the internationally renowned Miz WhataBeav. Her prestigious run culminated in the title of Ms. Beaver Universe, although she was stripped of the crown due to the leakage of some full frontal beaver shots taken when Ms. Whacker was much younger and much more naive, plus a little drunk.
She soldiers on, however, in the nature of beavers everywhere, having taken on causes such as Peace, Love, Beavering and the now popular Green Construction. In fact, she is now building an entirely green dam in an adjacent neighborhood. Anita believes everyone should live green and in harmony with nature.
John Parton has tried and failed to keep a straight face for the past three years as co-emcee of the Beaver Queen Pageant. John's natural affinity for beavers and their wetlands drew him to participate in this important event. John is proud to live in a community that not only stands up to large state bureaucracies, not only prevails in these struggles, but then throws an annual celebration of these victories that continues to benefit the community. John keeps his coat gleaming and tail flapping by listening to people who need assistance and pointing them in the right direction. John is grateful for the opportunity to be amplified while speaking frankly and soberly to large crowds about really ridiculous stuff.

Let me take you by the tail into the future: In a universe of "Peace, Love, and Beaver," where there is no war and therefore no weapons, I am the instrument of all: Peace, Love, and Beaver.
But there are some who would threaten this harmonious world, where the rhythms of time are as sweet and bubbly as the billowing pillowing waves of a lava lamp. When those threatening Dangerous Overlord Types (DOT) arise, I lie back to take them. Wherever danger is brewing, I am there. Wherever weapons of war are massing, I stick a flower in them. Oh yes, you bet your sweet bippy I do. No one will EVER pave paradise and put up a parking lot, for my innocence and love are more powerful than any machine or mal intent of man.

Dirty Beaver is a rescuee from the depths of Love Canal in upstate NY. Found dripping in toxic waste, she was transported here via beaver rescue barge to seek a new life as a freer, cleaner beaver. Upon arrival at Duke Park, Dirty Beaver set out to find a beaver cleaning facility . . . however due to the scarcity of drive-thru beaver washes equipped withself-scrubbers, she was forced to go to Ingles and load up on Beaver Goo
Gone and handiwipes . . . but nothing has worked out.
No one asks a dirty beaver to a dam building party that's for sure, and she has been single for some time; I mean that B.O. (you know . . . Beaver Odor?) can be a real turnoff in a social life. Dirty Beaver is still seeking a beaver cleaning crew!
If interested, call 1-800-KleenBeev.
Dirty Beaver believes that no beaver is an island... as sometimes, it
takes a village to clean a beaver.

It was a hot summer day in NYC. So hot, all I could do was go into my icebox and this hot furry beaver fell asleep. Ummm, it was so cool, as if I was swimming in a glacial stream. Aaahh. Alaska...This is the life! Look, I can see Russia from my dam! I better be careful; there's that schlemazel governor who thinks she can be president. Oy Vey!
So this busy beaver started exploring.
I came upon a great erection, a totem to the mother beaver,
lovingly carved by many large front teeth.
A voice spoke to me. Feh, this was no dream, but a call from the great creator of wetlands herself!
Bupkiss, listen to me. Until now, your life has been bupkiss; now you have a mission. You are my chosen beaver. You must deliver my message, and liberate Ellerbe Creek's beavers. That creek is a mess, a real shanda! No furry beaver could live with all that shmutz. The ECWA will clean up the creek, but they need the gelt. You must go to the pageant and throw a rent party for the Ellerbe Creek. Bring this package, this stimulus package, and stimulate the beavers! Bring my power to Durham. May wetlands spread over all beavers, for a wet beaver is a happy beaver.
Nu? So here I come, direct from New York, 1939, with the mother beaver's schtick.

In January, Mr. Jarvis began working as director of investor relations for Brewer Caldwell, a property management firm that had been approached by the CBI Group, a real estate fund based in Calgary, Alberta. In its first foray into the American market, CBI is buying 175 rental houses in Phoenix.
One of them belonged to Mary Lou and Jorge Aguilar, who purchased it new for $111,000 in 1999. Three years ago, after a series of financial difficulties, they refinanced for $185,000 for reasons they no longer understand. "Our lender talked a pretty picture," Mrs. Aguilar said bitterly.
When the couple's mortgage payment adjusted to $1,242 a month, they fell behind and ended up in foreclosure. They now pay $1,014 in rent, which they say is bearable.
Still, their feelings are mixed. "It's not our house anymore; it's someone else's," said Mrs. Aguilar, who works for the state welfare department.
For CBI, the deal is sweet. At that rent, it would recoup the $52,000 it paid for the house in about five years. "This type of deal is absolutely not available in Canada," said Jarrett Zielinski, a CBI executive. "No city here has fallen by 50 percent, the way Phoenix has."

"Question of whom to call for having a covered shelter installed at a Bus Stop. This is Durham One call – 560-1200."
Seriously? This is all you need to do to get a covered shelter installed at a bus stop?
I'm going to try this out immediately for the bus stops on Avondale Drive and let everyone know how it works.
I'm pleased to report that the City will [use] ARRA (stimulus) funds to provide 20 new bus shelters with solar lights, 20 new bus benches, and more trash cans at bus stops. I don't have the exact locations right now.
None of the elaborate plans for light rail and other mass transit will work until we enhance our bus service and make it transportation of choice, not just chance. Some of us--elected and appointed officials--are working hard to make that happen.

The long-awaited demolition and replacement of the pedestrian bridge at Alston Avenue will begin later this month and motorists are asked to take note of planned overnight traffic detours on NC 147.
Beginning May 26 and lasting approximately two weeks, the City's contractor, S.T. Wooten Corporation, will begin their first road closure of NC 147. Traffic will be rerouted using Briggs and Alston Avenues as detours from 11 p.m. until 5:30 a.m. as crews complete the demolition of the old pedestrian bridge structure.
After demolition is complete and the new bridge span arrives, crews will again close NC 147 during these same hours and using these same detour routes for the duration of setting the new bridge span into place. An announcement regarding the second closure will be provided to the public once this date is set.

HRM Elizabeaver, first to bear that good and noble name, is the daughter of HRM Henry VIII (a man with much beaver experience) and Anne Boleyn (who found that axes are not so good for beavers). Though there has been much made about the relationship between HRM Elizabeaver and Sir Walter Wally, a groundhog very much in her favor, she always protected her wetlands and is still a virgin beaver queen. HRM Elizabeaver, also known
as "Good Queen Beav", "Gloriana", or the "Virgin Beaver Queen", is also known for her rivalry with her cousin, Mary Queen of Scottish Beavers.
HRM Elizabeaver succeeded to the throne upon the death of her sister, Queen "Bloody Beaver" Mary, and has created through her reign a time of great peace, love, and flourishing beavers. HRM Elizabeaver has come across the pond to compete in the Beaver Queen Pageant in order to continue her protection of wetlands and the promotion of the glory of beavers.

Mayor David N. Cicilline said today he has not made a decision yet about whether to seek legislation that would allow Providence and other municipalities to levy an annual tax on every out-of-state student who attends a private college or university in Rhode Island.
In an interview with Providence Business News, Cicilline said he is still discussing the proposal with lawmakers, in addition to administrators and students at the city's four private schools: Brown University, Johnson & Wales University, Providence College and the Rhode Island School of Design.
"This is really about everyone working together, doing more than they've done in the past to support the health and prosperity of the city," he said.

Durga Beaver, like her predecessor Durga, was created when the whole dam Earth had become overrun with demons. The gods who ran the world had done everything they could think of to stabilize the world economy, society and environment. They erected barriers and fences, bombers and Humvees, bailouts and restructurings. But all of them failed to provide a firm foundation for the world. The gods were powerless against the evil forces which were running amok. So they convened a special session of all the dam leaders and acknowledged their inability to solve the problems using the same methods they'd been trying for years at the cost of billions of dollars and millions of lives.
They had thought that if they just put their heads together they would come up with something. So they tried and tried until their frustration became almost unbearable.
Suddenly at the very moment that they admitted their total inability to ease their frustration and come to a satisfying conclusion the ideal beaver entered each of their heads. They noticed for the first time that there were no beavers among all the dam gods and they saw the capacity of beavers to know exactly where and when to apply their mouths and their tails in order to achieve the smoothest flow and the firmest
structure to provide a life giving environment and a good dam time. The gods realized that all of their pitiful erections were doomed to fail without the guidance and support of the beaver.
That was the first step in their recovery.
They knew then they needed the help of a higher power. So they put their heads together again and prayed for the Queen Beaver to manifest and bless them. Their humility, intention and fervent prayer for help woke the goddess Durga from her thousand year slumber and she donned her beaver tail and descended to the dam demon infested world once again to defeat the evil forces and return the whole dam world to peace and harmony. This is the start of the Durga Beaver tale.

Street parking, driveways and home garages are generally forbidden in this experimental new district on the outskirts of Freiburg, near the French and Swiss borders. Vauban's streets are completely "car-free" — except the main thoroughfare, where the tram to downtown Freiburg runs, and a few streets on one edge of the community. Car ownership is allowed, but there are only two places to park — large garages at the edge of the development, where a car-owner buys a space, for $40,000, along with a home.
As a result, 70 percent of Vauban's families do not own cars, and 57 percent sold a car to move here. "When I had a car I was always tense. I'm much happier this way," said Heidrun Walter, a media trainer and mother of two, as she walked verdant streets where the swish of bicycles and the chatter of wandering children drown out the occasional distant motor.
Vauban, completed in 2006, is an example of a growing trend in Europe, the United States and elsewhere to separate suburban life from auto use, as a component of a movement called "smart planning."
Automobiles are the linchpin of suburbs, where middle-class families from Chicago to Shanghai tend to make their homes. And that, experts say, is a huge impediment to current efforts to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions from tailpipes, and thus to reduce global warming. Passenger cars are responsible for 12 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in Europe — a proportion that is growing, according to the European Environment Agency — and up to 50 percent in some car-intensive areas in the United States.

A reported $4,000 contribution from State Superintendent of Public Instruction June Atkinson's campaign to the Durham Committee on the Affairs of Black People is drawing scrutiny from state elections officials.
The contribution is listed on the Durham Committee's financial disclosure for the fourth quarter of 2008, but doesn't appear on the Atkinson campaign's. Officials from the State Board of Elections have asked the Durham Committee's treasurer, Keith Bishop, for a copy of the check.
The donation is of interest for more than just the accounting discrepancy.
Atkinson was participating in an experimental public-finance program funded in part with taxpayer money. Its rules bar aid recipients from channeling that money to other candidates or groups except for true "campaign-related" expenses like the purchase of advertising.

New Jersey Landlord Registration Act - New Jersey Landlord Identity Law – N.J.S.A. 46:8-27 thru 37
The New Jersey Landlord Registration Act
The law requires landlords who rent (NON-OWNER OCCUPIED) houses, apartments, or buildings to register certain information with the clerk of the city or town where the building is located. If your building contains three or more apartments, the landlord also must register with the
New Jersey Department of Community Affairs (Bureau of Housing Inspection, PO Box 810, Trenton, New Jersey 08625-0810
By law, every landlord of a dwelling, except owner-occupied premises with not more than two rental units, must file with the clerk of the municipality in which the residential property is situated, or with the Bureau of Housing Inspection in the Department of Community Affairs, a certificate of registration.
The certificate must contain the following information:
1. the name and address of the record owners. If such owners are a partnership, the name of all general partners. If such owners are a corporation, the name and address of the registered agent and corporate officers;
2. if the address of any record owner is not located in the county in which the premises is located, the name and address of a person who resides in the county in which the premises are located and is authorized to accept notices from a tenant and to issue receipt therefore and to accept service of process on behalf of the record owner;
3. the name and address of the managing agent of the premises;
4. the name and addresses, including the dwelling unit, apartment or room number of the superintendent, janitor, custodian or other individual employed by the record owner to provide regular maintenance service;
5. the name, address and telephone number of an individual representative of the record owner or managing agent who may be reached or contacted at any time in the event of an emergency; and
6. the name and address of every holder of a recorded mortgage on the premises.
The landlord must display this information at the property in a place where tenants can see it, and the landlord must give this information in writing to each tenant. Cite: N.J.S.A. 46:8-28 and 29.
In addition to the filing of the registration statement, landlords are required to provide each tenant with a copy of the registration certificate.
Failure to register. LANDLORDS TAKE NOTE! The registration law prevents a landlord from evicting you if the building is not properly registered.
If your landlord has not registered the property or has not given you a copy of the registration, the court cannot enter a judgment to evict you in favor of the landlord. In most eviction cases where a landlord has not registered, the judge will postpone hearing the case to give the landlord time to register. Once the landlord registers, the court can then hear the case and enter a judgment for eviction. The postponement can give you extra time to move or to obtain the rent you may owe. Some judges do not follow this procedure and will enter a judgment anyway, if the landlord agrees to register the property later. This practice is clearly wrong. Cite: N.J.S.A. 46:8-33 and Iuso v. Capehart, 140 N.J. Super. 209 (App. Div. 1976).
If your landlord is not registered, you can file a complaint in Superior Court or municipal court. A landlord can be fined up to $500 for failing to register. Cite: N.J.S.A. 46:8-35
If there is any change in any of this information, a landlord must file an amended registration with the Bureau of Housing Inspection or, in the case of a one-or two- family dwelling, with the clerk of the municipality, within 20 days, correct with the information posted in the building and notify each tenant in writing 7 days after filing. No fee is charged by the Bureau for the filing of amended registration statement
In court, a judgment for possession cannot be entered if the landlord has not complied with this registration requirement. Non-receipt of the statement is almost a standard defense by tenants who are represented by competent counsel to avoid an immediate judgment of possession. The court has the authority to stay the proceedings for 90 days to allow the landlord to come into compliance. If the landlord has not come into compliance within this 90 day period, the landlord's action for possession will be dismissed.

Actors portraying historical people in biopic movies have become a trend in modern cinema. Due to technological advancements and cinematography skills, portraying historical people and legends have become easier. Apart from technology facial identity is very important for looking like historical character. There are many movies based upon historical figures and great personalities. In which of those movies have the actors look exactly like the character they are acting for? There are very few such movies where the actors look identical to their historical character. In some movies, the actors and the crew have done really well to portray the character perfectly. Let's see some of those great portrayals of past celebrities in the perfect way possible. It is amazing that these actors look flawlessly like real life personalities.
Here is the list of 10 actors portrayed exactly like historical people in their movies:
10. Cate Blanchett as Bob Dylan (I'm Not There)
Cate Blanchett, being a female actor portrayed the great Bob Dylan perfectly in the movie I'm Not There (2007). Bob Dylan himself plays the music for the movie. Cate Blanchett has done a great job in the movie and she won several awards for her acting. Bob Dylan is an active musician, influential in popular music and culture for more than 5 decades. The story is about the life of Bob Dylan and the music surrounding it. The male portrayal with a female character was a surprise and is a great success.
9. Val Kilmer as Jim Morrison (The Doors)
Val Kilmer is a great actor who is notable for acting as Jim Morrison in the movie The Doors (1991) and as Doc Holliday in the movie Tombstone (1993). Val Kilmer is an American actor who is portrayed as Jim Morrison (American singer, writer and poet). Jim Morrison was known for his lead in the American band The Doors. The film The Doors is a biography of Jim Morrison. The story takes us through the successful career of Jim and as a result his addiction to drugs. Val Kilmer has done a good job and matches the character Jim.
8. Andre 3000 as Jimi Hendrix (Jimi: All Is By My Side)
Andre 3000 is an American rapper, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer and actor. Andre 3000 looks ditto like one of the greatest rock guitarist in history – Jimi Hendrix. The movie is based on the story of Jimi Hendrix. The drama showcases Hendrix leaving New York to London where his career took off. Jimi: All Is By My Side (2013) is a rustic and antique look of the great Jimi Hendrix. Andre's performance is appreciated and his depiction as Hendrix is nicely done.
7. Denzel Washington as Malcolm X (Malcolm X)
Malcolm X is known for his work as a courageous advocate fighting for the rights of blacks. The African-American Muslim minister and human rights activist is known as the greatest and most influential African-Americans in history. Denzel Washington amazingly portrayed himself as Malcolm X in the movie Malcolm X (1992). The film dramatizes key events in Malcolm X's life. Denzel Washington's makeup and portrayal matches well with Malcolm X.
6. Jamie Foxx as Ray Charles (Ray)
Jamie Foxx magically looks like Ray Charles in the movie Ray (2004). When you look at the above two images, it is hard to identify who is the actor and who is the historical figure. Jamie Foxx is an American actor, singer, songwriter, and comedian. Jamie Foxx won the Academy Awards for Best Actor, BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, and Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy, for his work in the biographical movie Ray. The great musician, song-writer and singer Ray Charles was sometimes referred to as "The Genius". Charles expired before attending the opening of the completed film Ray.
5. Jennifer Lopez as Selena Quintanilla Perez (Selena)
The 1997 movie Selena depicts Jennifer Lopez fantastically like an identical twin of singer Selena Quintanilla Perez. Billboard magazine mentions Selena as the "top Latin artist of the '90s. In the biopic movie Jennifer Lopez, as a singer replaced Selena who was also a singer. The musical dram film is about the life and career of the late Tejano music star Selena. The story takes us through the touching and memorable events in the life, career and murder of Selena.
4. Robert Downey as Charlie Chaplin (Chaplin)
Robert Downey's character in the movie Chaplin (1992) is a picture perfect comeback of the legendary comedian Charlie Chaplin. It is hard to identify Robert Downey Jr in the film, famous for his Iron Man superhero character. The movie Chaplin is an adaption from books such as My Autobiography by Chaplin and Chaplin: His Life and Art by film critic. The role as the British comedian Charlie Chaplin by Robert Downey Jr in the biographical comedy-drama film won him the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role.
3. Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs (Jobs)
In 2013, Ashton Kutcher portrayed Steve Jobs in the biographical film Jobs. The movie is an inspiration from the life-events of Steve Jobs. Kutcher's portrayal as Steve Jobs is just amazing. As you can see from the above image, Steve Jobs at the age of 26 sitting in his Los Angles office looks exactly similar to Kutcher. Even the office set up is recreated perfectly. The film opens in 2001 with a middle-aged Steve Jobs introducing the iPod at an Apple Town Hall meeting.
2. Bruno Ganz as Adolf Hitler (Downfall)
Bruno Ganz is a perfect replacement of the Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Bruno Ganz is a Swiss actor famous for his role in the German historical war film. The film depicts the final ten days of Adolf Hitler's rule over Nazi Germany in 1945. The aged look of Hitler is excellent in the movie. The story takes us through Führer's birthday, during the Battle of Berlin. Bruno Ganz is the one you must see if you ever wanted to see Hitler once again.
1. Daniel Day-Lewis as Abraham Lincoln (Lincoln)
Daniel Day-Lewis looks exactly like the 16th President of United States Abraham Lincoln in the movie Lincoln (2012). The American epic historical drama film directed by Steven Spielberg was a great success. Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times said "The hallmark of the man, performed so powerfully by Daniel Day-Lewis in Lincoln, is calm self-confidence, patience and a willingness to play politics in a realistic way." Daniel Day-Lewis perfectly matches to Abraham Lincoln's character and takes the audience to an immersive experience.

I have anxiety. "Stuff" makes my anxiety worse. However, certain "things" make my life feel safe. I grew up in a not-so-great atmosphere. I never felt safe in my own home for lots of reasons. If the home of my past were the only one on earth, I wouldn't return. I'd chose to live in the blustery cold, under a snowy tree in a t-shirt before returning there.
I vowed to myself that when I became an adult and was able to live on my own, my home would be open to anyone, it would be comfy and it would be safe.
Fast forward to my early 30's when my then-fiance (now husband) and I purchased our forever home. Old memories started flushing in and I immediately felt the need to make our new house feel like a home.
Go even farther in to my 30's and babies came. Now, more than ever, our home had to feel inviting, but above all else, safe. I want our home to be a safe haven for our kids. I want them to feel comfortable bringing their friends over. I want them to feel like they can always come home.
Along the way, I accumulated alot. I'm not a hoarder by ANY means, but I love pretty things and I thought that pretty things were what made homes welcoming and inviting. I am wrong, of course. As a designer, my mind goes straight to how our home looks, not what is going on inside of it. I'm starting to realize this more and more as our babies are getting older and we are making such great memories with them,not the pretty stuff.
So that brings me to the first of my life improvements of 2018. Decluttering. I'm seriously obsessed with minimalism, intentional living and Hygge. I'm not sure how one survived without the other, but I'm glad they are here. I read everything I can and have joined numerous facebook groups supporting all of these lifestyles and I can't get enough!
I want our home to feel friendly, warm, inviting and safe. I want this to be accomplished without a lot of "stuff". I want our home to be a place that cultivates creativity and fun for my family.
Last year I went through a decluttering frenzy when we redecorated the kid's rooms. I gathered up all of the clothes that didn't fit us, donated some and sent the rest to threadUP. If you haven't heard of threadUP, it's an online consignment store that will purchase or donate your new or gently used clothing, shoes and accessories. You can also sell high-end items on consignment too. I earned approximately $700+ last year from sending in clothes that we no longer worn or didn't fit. They make it super easy and you can order clean out bags on their site!
All of the money that I've made from decluttering goes into our kid's savings accounts. I love finding creative ways to set them up for a better future.
I also plan on donating or selling toys that are not being played with, housewares we don't use, etc. Givebackbox.com is another great resourse I've been using in this journey. The donations get shipped to Goodwill and you don't have to leave your house! Go to the site, print out a label and leave it for your postperson. You can also print receipts for your taxes.
I've started another decluttering project. It started on January 2nd and is still going. Last week I sent two more bags to threadUP (I ordered 10 bags!). I figured these should last for a little while and as the kids grow out of their clothes and the seasons change, I'll grab a bag and ship it off!
I also sent about 9 boxes via givebackbox.com. It feels so good to let all of this stuff go. I'm getting to the point where everything has it's place, spending is being curbed and life is getting a little easier. This is a great combination for enjoying more and worrying less.
I will be doing a separate post on my favorite books from 2017, but here are a few that have helped me so far in my journey to minimalism and focusing on what is important in life.
Living Well Spending Less by Ruth Soukup. Love this book! I love that she has written this book based on her own experiences, not research. She is very relateable (probably because I've been in the same place as she) and it's an easy read. Please add this to your reading list!
I am That Girl by Alexis Jones. I couldn't put this one down! After being a stay-at-home-mom for the last 4 years I've started feeling like I've lost my own identity. This book really helps you to figure out where your passions lie and what is really important to you. Enjoyed it immensely!
Until next time!

|A New Row to Hoe
Faced with a whole new challenge in my so-called "retirement," I had spent the morning on the phone calling friends who had written books. My calls weren't about the issue of writing a book, or getting a publisher. My three-year adventure was now in the hands of the printer.
No. My identity crisis was about marketing.
With the book coming out in two months, I had started to peddle it, sending out emails, calling people, networking on social media. A part of me was reveling in it. But another part of me worried that I was crossing a line.
In my former editing job at the Philadelphia Inquirer, one editor, Butch Ward, had called me "The Nudge." Of course, because of that I accomplished a lot. But at the risk of annoying others.
Beyond that concern, I was having an identity crisis. Why had I plunged into marketing, something I had never really done in my long career in journalism? On my dance card already for October are a half dozen speaking engagements, and it's not like I'm a natural at that, having hidden behind a typewriter or computer for all of my career.
"It's not you," a near-and-dear someone said to me. "Find another project."
That comment had really set me off.
If this wasn't "me," why was I doing it? And who was I now?
My author-friends resoundingly chimed in with lots of reasons I had not been able to articulate:
"You love what you've discovered writing your book. Now you can share your excitement with others who are fascinated, too."
"It's what authors have to do. If you don't push it out, no one will know about it -- so what was the point of writing it?"
"You'll meet so many interesting people, and that will lead to things you never imagined."
"You'll leave every event on a high."
And, as Susan told me several times: "You'll have so much fun!"
What could be better at this stage of life than having so much fun!
And since I've decided to go for the marketing, take a look inside my book,
Boathouse Row, Waves of Change in the Birthplace of American Rowing.
(The new me just had to put it out there.)

Business cards
4 reasons why business cards can be one of your most versatile marketing tools:
- Business cards are an inexpensive form of advertising.
- Convenient, light and compact. Business cards can go everywhere as they fit in your pocket, wallet, handbag, etc. You can send them through the mail along with invoices, newsletters, brochures and receipts.
- Business cards are one of the most read forms of advertising. Most people take a second look at an interesting design. You will capture their attention to which gives much greater potential to convert a lead into a sale.
- Business cards are the quickest way to make a comment about your business. You can also look at using both sides of the card where a company tag line, a product list, a services list or statement about who you are can be included.
Make sure your business card is not only attractive but it sends your company's message to potential clients.
Dont assume that the design of a business card is not important. It is not just about giving potential clients your contact details. It is also about the message you want to send to these clients. First impressions about your company image speaks volumes about your business. A badly designed business card will reflect a negative image of your company.
Try a business card / fridge magnet – Magnets are such a cool marketing idea – no one throws magnets out! They stick them on their fridge and subconsciously look at it hundreds of times.
Is your business card working hard for you?
If not think about having it redesigned so that it WILL make an impact.

Climbing up the walls
I forced my home-body kids to participate in one camp this year. I thought rock climbing would be easiest to 'force' someone to have fun at.
They both have enjoyed climbing in the past so I thought it might be our best bet. I think we found Bee's sport! She loved it!
Three hours a day for a whole week will wear you out! They slept so well that week!
That's all I have to say about this, so just enjoy another dozen pictures of my little monkeys.
This is one of the harder walls at the facility. Bee wanted so badly to get past the 'overhang'. Maybe next time!

text: Hi, I don't have a Model S ordered yet, but am very interested. I have been trying to decide which options are considered necessary and which are not. Have been reading the problems with the pano roof, but it seems that everyone has one. I rarely open the sunroofs on my cars and so are considering not ordering one. I am curious about the suspension option. Do any of you use it regularly? For sure the tech package is necessary. Am considering the 85kwh, but I already have an M56 which gives me plenty of hourse power and so my consider the 60 kwh car. My wife will probably drive it most of the time, and she keeps my car on the eco mode when she drives it. Anyway, any help you can give to me will be appreciated.

Speakers alerted that because of unhygienic conditions at the time of pregnancy, almost 25,000 women died during child delivery.
Solidarity messages were given by representatives of All Pakistan Trade Union Federation who emphasised the importance of women participation in unions. They put the reason plainly, "How can workers can get their goals if women who make up half of the total population are isolated from the mainstream struggle." Talking about the joint struggle against imperialist and exploitative powers, they stressed that male workers had to understand and accept the value of work and services which women are paying as woman and as workers.
On this occasion, several resolutions were passed, which called for an end to discrimination meted out to women at work place and passing of laws concerning day care centers, sexual harassment and the right to form unions for women workers in factories, service sector, brick kilns and as well as agricultural workers and women at home who are working as domestic workers.
The resolutions also called for the enforcement of labor laws, a monthly minimum wage of Rs 6,000 (US$140) for women workers, 35% of seats in assemblies and all decision making bodies be allocated to women, and devising of ways to put the country's economy on the right track other than privatization and related policies.
The resolutions were passed unanimously.
The seminar was also a social event. Women's needs, issues and
hardships were expressed and shared in skits and songs. Later the participants staged a demonstration in front of the Punjab Assembly building and raised slogans against unemployment, high inflation rate and other social injustice particularly inflicting women in Pakistan.
Celebration of IWD in Thailand was a concerted effort of a wide range of labour and women groups including Labour Council, Labour Federation, District Labour Unions, Labour Unions of State Enterprises, Women Workers' Development Group, etc. It was also joined by scholars in the field of labour issues.
Hard hit by the financial crisis and IMF bail-out, Thai workers are threatened in all aspects of life. The IWD rally, which was attended by 2,000 women and men workers from various industrial areas, carried strong messages concerning the crisis of mass lay-off. The workers marched
from Democrat Monument areas, past Rajadamnern Avenue, the historic street of fights fro democracy, heading towards the Government House to submit a proposal to Prime Minister Chuan Leekpai. The proposal included the following requests:

Well I changed my nails! I didn't really like the marble one so I went for a cute summery nail art :) I started with two coats of Le Glamour - Fashion, a beautiful pink creme and did the diagonal french with Pop Rocks - Scalper. It's a red jelly base packed with holographic glitter, it is so sparkly in real life! On to the pics :)
That pink is so subtle yet gorgeous

Shooting with film when the occasion allows and often using natural light, Danny works closely with his subjects to achieve images that are authentic and memorable.

Skilled at shooting dynamic, high-energy images as well as those that are quieter and more reflective, Danny's portfolio encompasses everything from narrative-driven environmental portraits to adrenalin-fuelled images of musicians, motorcyclists, and longboarders. Danny's unique way of seeing the world and his passion for life are always present in the photographs he makes no matter who is in front of his lens.
In 2017, two of Danny's images were selected for the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize at the National Portrait Gallery in London.

Hamamatsu-Tenjingura have come up with a new label for their kome/rice shochu "Doman", the name of a rare crab found exclusively in Hamana Lake!
Please check the new postings at:
sake, shochu and sushi
"Douman" is the name of a very rare crab of fairly large proportions exclusively caught in Summer in Lake Hamana, Shizuoka Prefecture.
Fishermen will be lucky if they manage to find 2 or 3 specimen caught in their nets in a single day for the whole lake!
It has become one of the symbols of the area as demonstrated by the rice/kome shochu of the same name brewed by Hamamatsu-Tenjingura Brewery/Distillery in Hamamatsu City.
Consequently only a few privileged establishments may serve it from time to time.
One such place is Suehiro-Hamanako No Megumii Aji Sushi Restaurant, a little secret place of mine.
As introduced in other articles, it is tucked away from the city bustle south of Hamamatsu JR Station.
I make a point to reserve a seat or two before I visit them as hey will make sure to keep a bottle of Shizuoka Sake just for me.
Last Friday, they just happened to have an excellent bottle from a favourite Brewery of mine, namely Hatsukame in Okabe Cho.
That particular brand, called "Fujisan", is a honjozo made with rice from Toyama Prefecture and yeast from Shizuoka Prefecture, perfect in summer with sushi and seafood!
Light food was on order as it had been an excessively hot day now that the rainy season is finally off our heads.
Pickled myoga, and ham and avocado salad were perfect with the first couple of glasses of chilled sake.
With a kitchen conveniently closed away, Suehiro has the knack to serve the right mixture of sashimi, sushi and cooked fare which ensures you will not leave the place worrying about a still empty stomach.
Mind you, this is an expat notion which does not count for the Japanese habit to visit at least two or three different places in the same night.
We opted for some akami/lean tuna and suzuki/seabass sashimi and a plate of Hamana Lake prawns deep-fried inside Spring rolls.
Finally we were ready for the Douman Crab!
My friend took the opportunity to order a glass of shochu of the same name while I gamely took care of the sake.
In Hamamatsu City they just serve it steamed as it is without any dressing or seasoning.
And our half (can you imagine the price of a whole one?) did not need any whatsoever. It came very full of so soft, tasty, even sweet meat that you naturally take your time savouring a little at a time with chopsticks. Forbid a fork or spoon!
I'm afraid this will be my first and last time I experience such a delicacy. That is unless Suehiriro calls me (and other customers?) next time they chance upon one (two would be impossible, so do not plan a party!)
We still hjad one more morsel before we left for the Liquid Kitchen, a bar held by a cricket friend of mine: Hamana Lake anago/conger eel and ikura/salmon roe sushi.
As this restaurant always comes up with local delicacies on a purely seasonal basis, I wonder what will compel me to visit it again!

On a beautiful cold day on Friday, February 29th, I met Matthew (Matt) Ryan, an Australian resident in Hamamatsu City with my student, Mika Sakurai, at the JR Station to honour an invitation by Mr. Yasuo Nakamura to visit his Brewery.
An extraordinarily affable gentleman, he is the 6th generation-owner of Hamamtsu Brewery founded in 1871 by his ancestor Goroshichi (the name of one of extravagant rice shochu) Nakamura.
Actually Nakamura was the original name of the Brewery until they absorbed other breweries in 1953 and changed their name to Hamamatsu Brewery (under Government orders).
Mr. Nakamura's father, who opened a beer hall some 20 years ago, finally was allowed thanks to a change of law to create a beer brewery on the same premises in 1998. His son started producing kome/rice shochu in 2003, and umeshu 1n 2005. This year saw the brewing of their first "yamahai" sake, a brand of very traditional sake hard to find anywhere (only 3 more breweries presently produce it in Shizuoka Prefecture), and quite a labour of love.
Another first, and in this case for the whole Shizuoka Sake World, a 28-years old lady, Ms. Miwa Masui, is in charge of the brewing from this very year! (I don't really know how to call her as there is no femnine form for Master Brewer!) Although I'm extremely proud of my male gender, I do think this is great news, proving that some establishments are willing to work along the times!
I can hear Melinda and Etsuko rejoicing! (Why don't you come down to Hamamatsu? It will a great pleasure to accompany you!)
We were granted the "real" visit ( a very personal one indeed, as "tourists" are certainly not allowed within the "heart" of the brewery!) and my two friends assailed poor Mr. Nakamura who had just enough time to explain along with my interpreting.
We were lucky to be shown the process for the last batch of "yamahai" (after that, they will start brewing beer while continuing producing shochu, umeshu and other liqueurs) and appreciate the texture and flavour of the rice before a peek into the "koji muro" (fermenting chamber).
When we took a peek at the sake fermenting in one of the vats, Mr. Nakamura had to point out to enthusiastic Matt not to fall inside as he was eagerly looking into its entrails, or that would the his end on this world (it did happen in Japan recently to an unfortunate individual who met his final demise by accidentally falling inside such a vat!)!
Hamamatsu Brewery is a very well organized company at everylevel. Not only they produce sake, shochu, liqueurs and beer, but you can even use their event space for private enterprises from weding to private rock concerts!
Now, their kome/rice shochu are an extravagant affair!
They are exclusively made from "sake kasu"/white lees distilled as soon as produced.
I know a lot of people in Kyushu who will have to revise some of their views if hey are given the chance to taste them!
Their shop is a must in itself, and I can assure you that you will be embarrassed by the choice of goods on display, that incidentally you can pay with a credit card, a very rare occurence in this very traditional world!

Range Resources Corporation has amended and restated its revolving credit facility. The new five-year agreement with a syndicate of twenty-nine financial institutions has a maximum facility size of $4 billion, with an initial borrowing base of $3 billion and $2 billion in commitments.
This represents an increase in the borrowing base of $1 billion and increased commitments of $250 million. The agreement also reduces drawn borrowing costs by 25 basis points and grants Range the option to release all collateral upon the receipt of a single investment grade rating. The maturity of this facility was extended to October 16, 2019.
Roger S. Manny, Range's Executive Vice President & CFO, commented, "This new agreement was structured to support our stated goal of multi-year 20% - 25% annual growth and is a sign of the Company's operational and financial strength. Range's current proved reserves support the $3 billion borrowing base and significantly more should we choose to request it. The agreement was carefully structured to create a strong, diversified bank group while also providing features consistent with credit facilities of investment grade companies. We believe this new agreement demonstrates Range's continued progress in building a robust balance sheet which will support our future growth."

Safetray is in good company, alongside other Scottish inventions such as TV and penicillin.
Chris Clements, Daily Record, 12th March 2014
"John Logie Baird will be turing in his grave
EU to hike costs for innovators
The nation that gave the world TV, penicillin and telephones could see its inventors of the fututre stymied by new EU laws.
Scottish inventors will be hit with rising costs to protect their creations if a new patent law goes through Parliament. Lawyers have warned that the Intellectual Property Bill - part of a move to mesh with the EU's new Unitary Patent Court - may see Scottish courts stripped of powers to rule on patent cases.
The Court of Session in Edinburgh has jurisdiction over patents for Scottish inventors. But under the law - to be debated in the House of Commons today - inventors may have to travel to England or abroad to leagally protect their designs from copycats.
Alison Grieve, who invented Safetray, used by hospitality firms, said inventors must be able to litigate in Scottish courts. The Edinburgh businesswoman warned that firms will take a financial hit if the Bill is not amended.
She said: "If we have to go down south to litigate, it does put added pressure on finances. I can forsee problems for companies that have gone to great lengths to negotiate and argue that their contracts are under Scots law, only to find that they have to travel to England."
Under the EU's Unitary Patent Court deal, the UK would be allowed up to four courts to decide on intellectual property disputes. But the Law Society of Scotland fear that none of them will be in Scotland.
Scottish lawyers have called for the three jurisdictions in the UK - England and Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland - to each have a patent court under the new system.
Lawyer Gill Grassie said: "What we're aiming to achieve is to have a guarantee in place that one of the courts would be situated in Scotland, effectively maintaining the status quo."

ADP Grants Tania Place
Toronto, January 28, 2014 - ADP Canada Co., a leading global provider of human capital management solutions, today announced that Tania's Place, an activity centre for adults with special needs based in Ajax, Ontario, is the first winner of ADP Canada's 2014 Small Business Grant Contest. The contest offers entrepreneurs the chance to win a $10,000 cash prize.
In her winning application, Francie Trajkovski, Executive Director and founder of Tania's Place, described her daughter Tania as the inspiration for opening the activity centre. Tania has special needs and, due to her intellectual disability, she is unable to work or attend post-secondary school. When Ms. Trajkovski researched assistive programs for Tania after the teen graduated from high school, she learned there were few options. Drawing on her past work experience managing large recreational facilities, Ms. Trajkovski opened her own "day program" facility that could cater to the needs of her daughter and other special needs individuals in the community just east of Toronto. Since launching in 2004, Tania's Place has become one of the largest day programs in Durham Region and continues to grow. Recently, the business moved to a spacious 8,000 square foot building, enabling Tania's Place to serve more than 100 families. Winning ADP's Small Business Grant contest will allow Tania's Place to hire its eighth full-time employee and to pay down its renovation costs.
"Winning the ADP Small Business Grant Contest is a miracle for us," said Trajkovski. "We'll now be able to pay down our renovation costs more quickly and continue growing and providing quality care and services to additional special needs families in our community."
Ms. Trajkovski has been using ADP as her payroll service provider for over a year now. As part of the Small Business Grant Contest prize, Tania's Place will also have its payroll processing fees waived for one year.
"Tania's Place is an inspirational story and a shining example of the big difference that small businesses make in our communities," said Greg Secord, President, ADP Canada, Employer Services Division. "We are confident the prize money will allow Tania's Place to expand their very meaningful work."
Through its relationships with more than 400,000 small businesses across North America, ADP has unique insights into the challenges that confront entrepreneurs every day. ADP's trusted small business solutions help reduce costs and compliance risks associated with complex rules and regulations, so owners can focus on growing their businesses.
The ADP Small Business Grant Contest is open to all Canadian business owners with 1- 49 employees, and entries will be received until March 31, 2014. A winner will be announced for each month from November 2013 to April 2014. Winners will also have their payroll processing fees waived for one year, up to a $3500 value.
Entrepreneurs can enter the contest by sharing their business story and describing what they would do with $10,000. They can then invite their customers, employees, friends and family to show their support by voting for their submission online.

Majella and Niall where do I start…. I have known both families for as long as i can remember so when I was asked to shoot Majella and Niall's big day I was both excited and privileged. The day started at Majella's mum's and dad's house where Majella and the bridesmaids where getting ready, no panic and very laid back. The Car arrived from Top Class Limos and it was off to St Patricks Church where the music from Aine O'Flynn and Marjorie Moran. The Church decor from Wedding by Franc, it was so fitting a ceremony officiated by Fr Aquin Casey.
On our way to the Silver Spring Hotel where the celebrations took place we stopped in the village of Castlelyons where we had a bit of fun taking family formals and the bridal party photos. When we arrived at the Hotel is was time again for some impromptu photos with family and friends. The nights entertainment with D.J. Tom Donegan went on to the early hours of the morning, with plenty of sick heads the next day it's a good sign they had a great day.
Majella and Niall I wish you the best for the future and it was great being part of you special day…..

Day 2
Every Saturday morning, locals flock to the site of a former Dr. Pepper Plant for the area's largest market. At Pepper Place Farmers' Market, 100 seems to be the magic number. There's nearly one hundred outdoor stands loaded with Chilton County peaches and vine-ripe tomatoes, all grown within a hundred-mile radius. For immediate gratification, try Bob's Soon-to-be-Famous Pimento Cheese with a slice of hearty wheat from Magnolia Bread Co. and wash it down with JaWanda's Sweet Potato Pie. There's honey tastings, chef demos, and plenty of local color.
Not Saturday? No worries. Stop in locally-owned Lucy's Coffee in the hub of the medical district on University Boulevard for bacon, egg and cheese nourishment in the form of an Egg MacLucy. A patchwork of mix-matched tables and chairs, including an eye-catching 1950s mustard-yellow couch give the spot a homey feel while the gracious staff welcomes visitors like family. Fair warning, parking is a challenge, but it's worth the effort.
Plentiful days of sunshine make Birmingham an outdoor mecca. After fueling up, head to the 1,500-acre Red Mountain Park for 12 miles of exceptionally well-maintained hiking and biking trails. For adventure seekers, there's a zip line tour and a challenging rope and obstacle course called Beanstalk Forest.
When the lunch bell rings, find your way to the hip Avondale neighborhood for Post Office Pies, recently voted best pizza in 'Bama. Boasting a retro-cool location in a former post office and an owner with substantial kitchen cred including stints at Gramercy Tavern and Momofuku, this spot's wafer-thin pizzas and seasonal salads live up to the hype.
While you're in the neighborhood, pop in another of the city's acclaimed beer establishments, Avondale Brewing with a dozen beers on tap, all named for local legends. Lore has it that a circus owner and his elephant Miss Fancy once brought crowds to nearby Avondale Park. The pachyderm now graces a label and serves as the brewery's mascot.
The Magic City is filled with mythic tales and none is taller than the Roman god of fire and forge, Vulcan. At 180-feet tall, he's the world's largest cast iron statue and a weirdly wonderful symbol of the city's one-time iron-and-steel glory. The superhero, cast from local iron in 1904, occupies a perch on Red Mountain with stunning views across the city and valley. Take the elevator to the top to truly appreciate Vulcan's watch post.
For a highly original shopping spree conveniently within Vulcan's shadow, make your way to the tree-lined neighborhood of Forest Park. You'll get a feel for the city's vibrant art scene with a stop in Naked Art Gallery. Pick up one of Belgium-born owner Vero Vanblaere's light-switch covers painted with Birmingham landmarks as a souvenir.
For funky wardrobe finds, check out neighboring Zoe's Consignment. From second-hand designer labels to vintage duds, chances are you'll find a new-to-you treasure.
To feel the pulse of the city's downtown revitalization, take a stroll along 2nd Avenue North. Enjoy an aperitif at Collins while learning more about the city from the super-sized Birmingham-centric periodic table hanging above the bar.
Just be sure to put your name on the list for dinner at neighboring El Barrio first. When you walk through the door of the bustling Mexican-meets-Southern joint, you might wonder if you're still in Birmingham. Walls lined with reclaimed wood mix with modern concrete and iron trimmings give off a Brooklyn vibe. The menu showcases locally sourced ingredients and outrageously good sauces making dishes like the roasted chile relleno with stuffed black beans, cactus and roasted-garlic cream a new Southern favorite.
Local heroes St. Paul and the Broken Bones have helped shine a light on the city's robust music scene and nowhere is the diversity and breadth more clear than the little venue with an oversized presence, Bottletree. If jazz is your thing, don't miss a show in the dimly lit, romantic Ona's Music Room featuring the city's best pianists and horn players.
Getting There
Birmingham is easy to reach from most spots in the U.S. with Delta, United, American, Southwest and US Airways all flying into Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport. The airport is located five miles and less than 15 minutes from downtown.
To Stay
For historic ambiance, it's hard to beat the Tutwiler, known locally as "The Tut." With a Hampton Inn affiliation, you might think cookie-cutter, but that's far from the case here. This grand dame of Birmingham hotels has been welcoming guests since 1914 and oozes with elegance and charm.
For a taste of new Birmingham, reserve a spacious room at the recently opened Westin located in Uptown, the city's recently unveiled dining-and-entertainment district. Enjoy half-price pints and three-dollar sliders during happy hour in the lobby at Todd English Pub.

Driving to EchoPark Automotive Stadium for the Class 5A soccer semifinals on Nov. 7, I had visions of seeing well-played, competitive matches with no shootouts.
But what did I see? A shootout.
Arapahoe eliminated defending champion Broomfield with a 4-3 win after six shootout rounds. Neither team scored in regulation time or the two 15-minute overtime sessions which got me to climb on the soapbox.
I've always felt that soccer shootouts are fun, definitely exciting and nerve wracking for regular season games but they don't belong in the playoffs when teams are putting all their hard working on the line with a chance to win the state championship.
Yes, both teams have an equal chance of winning a shootout to decide a playoff winner.
But, shootouts eliminate the passing, dribbling, marking, teamwork and physical play that are part of successful teams. Shootouts resort to an individual game of shooting prowess. The goalkeeper's skill and quite frankly good intuition and luck are also involved in penalty kick shootouts.
This season in just the 5A division there have been three teams ousted from the 5A playoffs because of shootout losses after the two overtime sessions that have been increased to 15 minutes each for the playoffs. There was one shootout in 2017 and four in 2016 including Broomfield, which lost the 2016 state title match after being outscored in a prolonged shootout against Boulder, 13-12. Broomfield won a second-round shootout this season over Denver East.
"I've never been a big fan of penalty kicks to end a soccer match," said Arapahoe coach Mark Hampshire. "It really takes away the integrity of what the sport is, a team sport, and it puts it on the shoulders of an individual or two but it does test the mental resiliency and focus."
Rock Canyon won a first-round shootout this season but coach Aaron Carpenter has an idea to avoid shootouts.
"I'm not a fan of shootouts," he said. `This is a bit unorthodox, but I would have the matches go two 10-minute halves of golden goal. At that time, if it remained the same, I would play 8-v-8 with two more 10-minute halves of golden goal."
I can still remembered the triple overtime in Florida when the Avalanche captured their first NHL Stanley Cup title in 1996. In the playoffs in the National Hockey League, teams keep playing until one team wins.
High school soccer coaches routinely practice penalty kicks and keepers are schooled on what to watch as players get ready to shoot to maybe get a hint on where the shooters plan to aim their attempt.
Tied World Cup knockout games were first replayed, which isn't an answer for high school teams. World Cup shootouts were first introduced in 1978 and there have been 30 matches decided by penalty-kick shootouts.
The biggest problem is there hasn't been a viable alternative to a shootout. Fatigue and sloppy play, especially for high school players, is a disadvantage of letting teams continue to play until a winner is determined.
"We have not had any recent conversation about changing our playoff overtime format," said CHSAA assistant commissioner Ernie Derrera.
There have been a few proposals internationally to improve endings to tied matches. One would be to change the format of the shootouts, since the team that shoots first wins 60 percent of the shootouts. Arapahoe shot first against Broomfield in the Nov. 7 semifinals.
Instead of teams alternating shooters, the first team would shoot once then the second team twice, then the first team twice until it gets to the final round shooter which would be a player from the second team.
Another idea would be to reduce a player on each team to open up the field and keep decreasing players as the overtimes progress.
The notion I like is to have the penalty shootout after regulation match ends and before the overtime sessions begin. It gives the losing shootout team a chance for redemption. If neither team scores during the ensuing OT periods, then the winner of the shootout would be declared the winner of the match.
But for now, I will just have to enjoy the drama provided by shootouts and keep quiet.
Arapahoe goalkeeper Spencer Cobb probably best summed up penalty-kick shootouts.
"PKs are the definition of soccer because it's so fickle," he said. "It can go both ways. You like PKs when you win. It shouldn't always come down to that."
Pomona, Boll vault to top
Pomona won its fourth consecutive girls Class 5A gymnastics team title on Nov. 1 at the CHSAA state meet with a narrow victory over Overland, but the Panthers' accomplishment had to be shared with an individual from Lakewood.
Lakewood's Amber Boll, a senior who has committed to the Air Force Academy, won the 5A all-around title on Nov. 1 but drew more attention in winning the individual vault competition with a perfect 10.0 score on Nov. 3. She also captured the individual titles on the uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise.
