A weekend squirrel hunting contest to raise funds for a western New York volunteer fire company drew about 30 animal rights protesters and a heavy police presence following heated criticism of the once-obscure event.
Organizers of the "Hazzard County Squirrel Slam" say they sold 900 tickets at $10 each for hunters as young as 12 to vie for cash prizes for bagging the largest squirrel and the heaviest group of up to five.
Rochester-area media report that critics sent thousands of emails to officials in the village of Holley urging them to call off the hunt. Some threats among the correspondence prompted police to bring in extra officers from surrounding communities to monitor what turned out to be a peaceful protest Saturday.

I also noticed that my brand new transfer case from GM is leaking from the front seal. Looks like it will be going back to the shop. Doing some research about replacing my shocks with bilsteins I discovered that the rear coil springs will also need replaced with a spring with a different spring rate. I found the bilstein springs from someone who ordered them and never installed them. I ordered them for 1/2 price compared to everywhere else I looked.

Heidi Dampier and her daughters board an American Eagle flight at Central Wisconsin Airport as part of a Snowball Express trip to Dallas, Texas
American Airlines and US Airways have approved a merger today that may give other airlines a run for their money.
The deal has an $11 Billion price tag and could create the world's biggest airline.
Both companies say the merger will help them become more competitive in a market that has seen substantial growth with airlines like Delta and United.
However, for travelers that head through CWA, the usual ticket prices and daily flights may not see much of a change.
Tony Yaron, CWA Manager said, "In real dollar figures since the mergers of Northwest/Delta, United/Continental, and Soutwest/Air Tran we've seen prices go down even adjusted for inflation.
Tony added that if prices were to rise, they would do so because the price of jet fuel has also risen. For now though, American Airlines at CWA may not see an dramatic changes for awhile.

Going to Sam's House With Ryan One day last June, Ryan and I went to play at Sam's house after the Celebration Day at school. When we got there, we started to play with his three bikes under his building. When we were done we went up in the elevator to his house. We played with some plastic guns and then watched Diary of a Wimpy Kid 1. We went back down to play soccer. I wanted to play with Sam, but he wanted Ryan. I was the goalie and I was really good so they didn't beat me. We changed teams and then me and Sam were against Ryan. I told Sam, "I'll shoot one goal and then you shoot the next one." We scored three goals. I was happy. Ryan didn't care about the score. Then Sam said we should see who could reach the highest up on the wall. Ryan went first, then Sam, then it was my turn. I ran at the wall, jumped up and hit my stomach. I didn't reach up very high because it hurt. We went back upstairs to finish watching the movie and Sam's grandmother cooked us some food. It was an exciting day.

Why Honey Is Eaten for Rosh Hashanah, and Other Burning Questions
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, begins tonight at sundown. It's traditional to dip apples in honey to symbolize the hope for a sweet year ahead, a practice of which I was aware but never knew the origins. To find out, I consulted Jeffrey M. Cohen's 1,001 Questions and Answers on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur (thank you, Google Books), where I also found answers to questions I didn't even know I had.
According to Cohen, the reason honey is used (and not some other sweet substance) is its association with the manna—described in the Torah as being "like honey wafers"—provided by God during the 40 years that the Israelites wandered the desert. It is supposed to remind Jews that any sustenance or material benefits that come their way are "solely dependent upon God's grace and favor," he writes.
Another interpretation Cohen relates is that it symbolizes the dual role of bees—feared for their sting, but prized for the sweetness they provide—reminiscent of the image of a stern but merciful creator.
One seemingly obvious reason he doesn't mention is that honey was the sweetener of choice in biblical times; neither sugar nor maple syrup were known to the ancient Israelites. Honey, on the other hand, is at least as old as written history; it was mentioned in Sumerian and Babylonian cuneiform writings, and other ancient texts going back 4,000 years.
Aside from apples and honey, other lesser-known Rosh Hashanah traditions revolve around foods that imply good omens. On the second night of celebration, Jews eat a "new fruit" that hasn't been eaten yet in the season. Pomegranates are a popular option, in part because they (at least symbolically) contain 613 seeds, indicating the desire to fulfill the 613 mitzvot (commandments, or good deeds) mentioned in the Torah. Fenugreek is also recommended, Cohen writes, because its Hebrew name, rubya, means increase. Similarly, carrots are chosen because their Yiddish name is mehren, or many.
Nuts are prohibited at Rosh Hashanah, Cohen explains, for reasons that seem a little murky. He cites two main reasons. The first has to do with the numerical value assigned Hebrew letters and words; in the complicated numerology of Judaism the word for nut is equivalent to the word for sin. Also, he writes, nuts were believed to increase saliva, interfering with the recitation of prayers. These reasons, he admits, seem a little flimsy—which he attributes to latter-day rabbinic authorities trying to rationalize a tradition for which they had no solid explanation.
The original reason, he continues, was investigated by Chaim Leshem, who determined that nuts were an ancient symbol of destruction because their trees and sap overshadow and destroy other nearby trees.
(But hey! Wait a minute! At my Rosh Hashanah meal every year we have teiglach — the honey-laden boiled dough delicacy that comes riddled with nuts. I wonder if its an Ashkenazic/Sephardic difference? — Brian, associate web editor)
Challah, or egg bread, is eaten all year, but at Rosh Hashanah the loaf is round instead of braided, to symbolize the cycle of the new year and of our lives.
And no Rosh Hashanah meal is complete without some honey cake (smitten kitchen has a yummy-sounding recipe that looks moister than usual), which is generally made with coffee. I couldn't find the reason for the coffee, even in the book of 1,001 questions and answers. Can anyone out there offer an explanation?

Great article, thank you for giving some press to jewish traditions.
I appreciate you providing this information to the community and helping to explain some of the Jewish customs.
Coffee may be used for three reasons: to give the cake a rich deep color, to undercut the sweetness of the honey and to provide a liquid for the batter that is pareve.

By Nancy K. Matthis | Friday, March 31st, 2006 at 4:53 pm
We are extremely privileged to publish an article by Danish clinical psychologist Richardt Thomas Lionheart, A conference of literature on the cartoons and the clash of cultures. We encourage our readers to study his thoughtful exegesis of all twelve Jyllands-Posten cartoons and particibate in the conversation that he invites.
The cartoon controversy began when Danish author KÃ¥re Bluitgen sought an illustrator for a children's book he had written about the life of Mohammed. When he tried to find an artist to illustrate the book, he discovered that his fellow Danes were frightened of the project. Eventually an artist agreed, on condition of anonymity, and the book was completed. You can see the illustrations here:
The episode exposed a growing fear of free expression in Denmark, brought on by a perceived threat from their immigrant Islamic population. Concerned about the loss of this basic human right, the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten drew a "line in the sand." Late last September the editor offered about forty artists an opportunity to draw editorial cartoons of Mohammed. Only twelve had the courage to accept, and now they are in fear for their lives.
The original twelve cartoons were well-done, in terms of the western tradition of humor as political commentary. The Danish Islamic imams added three egregiously offensive images to the collection themselves, one being an adaptation of a French newspaper article about a completely unrelated pig-calling contest.
Having thus misrepresented the situation, the Danish imams then travelled throughout the middle East stirring up hatred for their Danish hosts, partially on the basis of this false information. They instigated damaging attacks against the economy of the country that had welcomed them as guests.
Returning to Denmark, they sought to pursue legal action in the Danish court system. On March 15, their case in the Danish court system was dismissed. From Rigsadvokaten:
The Decision of the Director of Public Prosecutions in the case of Jyllands-Posten's Article "The Face of Muhammed"
I have today decided not to institute criminal proceedings in the case of Jyllands-Posten's article "The Face of Muhammed", which was published on 30 September 2005 and where complaints were filed against Jyllands-Posten for violation of Sections 140 and 266 b of the Danish Criminal Code. My decision is that there is no violation of the said rules of the Danish Criminal Code….
My decision in the matter cannot be appealed to a higher administrative authority. This follows from Section 99(3) of the Danish Administration of Justice Act.
Henning Fode
Freedom of expression is protected under Danish law, and so the imams essentially had no case. It is the duty of the Danish Director of Public Prosecutions to refuse cases that would simply be a waste of the taxpayer's money. So now the imams are taking their case to the United Nations. From The Brussels Journal (article here):
The Islamic Faith Community, an umbrella organisation of 27 radical Muslim organisations in Denmark, is lodging a complaint against the state of Denmark with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in Geneva …. The reason for the complaint is [the] refusal of the Danish director of public prosecutions to press criminal charges against Jyllands-Posten, the Danish newspaper that published 12 Muhammad cartoons in September 2005….
The western countries have traditionally valued freedom of expression. Presumably the Islamic population of Denmark knew that when they immigrated to that country which so kindly welcomed them. Now they are cast in the light of ungratefully biting the hand that feeds them. One publication guesses at the real motives of the Danish imams:
Those who believe that the whole issue has to do with 12 cartoons are naïve. Denmark is being punished for its alleged Islamophobia. Its crime is not the publication of 12 drawings in Jyllands-Posten, a paper in the rural province of Jutland. Its crime is the staunch refusal of the Danish Vikings to allow Muslim immigrants to impose their laws upon their host country.
In short, the radical Islamists are seen as intending to infiltrate and take over the western countries. Against this background, there are reasonable scholars from both the western and eastern traditions who are calling for dialog and understanding. We are deeply pleased to have the opportunity to publish one of them.
Here is a complete list of our coverage.
The coverage by the Blogosphere in general has been summarized in a "trackback" listing by Michele Malkin.

Welcome to the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs. I hope you find our Web site as useful as it is easy to use.
The Department works to ensure that New York City's consumers and businesses benefit from a fair and vibrant marketplace. To do that, we focus on empowering and protecting consumers, while at the same time facilitating fair business practices.
DCA licenses more than 78,000 businesses in 55 different industries ranging from home improvement contractors, electronic stores, and tow companies to sidewalk cafés, newsstands, and locksmiths. Not only do we enforce particular regulations for each of these types of business, but we also enforce the City's landmark Consumer Protection Law, which prohibits misleading and deceptive trade practices among all businesses selling goods or services to consumers. The Department also enforces weights and measures laws to ensure the accuracy of gas pumps and meters in home heating oil trucks, as well as the scales in supermarkets, jewelry stores, and more.
DCA serves New York's eight million-plus inhabitants, as well as its millions of yearly visitors. So how do we do all that, particularly in an efficient, accountable, and customer-friendly way?
To start, DCA views the best path to compliance as education supported by fair enforcement. We have established productive partnerships with trade associations and community-based organizations. We meet and communicate regularly, provide them with free information and advice in multiple languages, and often speak at their functions. The Department also works with industry groups to propose new and better laws.
The DCA Licensing Center is the backbone of the agency's functions, serving more than 100,000 visitors per year (including those we serve on behalf of the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene). Customer service is key – and DCA representatives receive high marks in our satisfaction surveys, while increasing services are being offered by mail or online.
To ensure businesses comply with the law and consumers are protected, DCA conducts routine inspections throughout the five boroughs, resolves individual consumer complaints, pursues large-scale litigation, and conducts administrative hearings. Our inspection work ranges from checking for refund policies and proper price posting to performing undercover inspections, including those aimed at ferreting out the illegal sale of tobacco to minors. We reserve our litigation work for businesses that refuse to comply with consumer protection regulations, and focus particular attention to industry-wide patterns of abuse.
Whether you are looking to run a business or have a consumer concern, DCA can help. Look through this Web site to find out how.
On behalf of Mayor Bloomberg and everyone at Consumer Affairs, thank you for working with us to help you.
Jonathan Mintz Commissioner New York City Department of Consumer Affairs

ATLANTA, GA -- Construction for the new headquarters of Porsche Cars North America has hit high gear with a ground breaking Tuesday morning. Georgia Governor Nathan Deal, Porsche President and CEO Detlev von Platen, along with others broke ground at Aerotropilis Atlanta for the project announced in May 2011.
"Porsche's new headquarters is a terrific asset to Georgia's economy and moves us closer to becoming the No. 1 state in the nation in which to do business," said Deal in the release. "I'm confident One Porsche Drive will become a renowned address that stands for vision, innovation and success – as well as one of the greatest driving experiences in the world for the millions of travelers who arrive in our great state each year."
Porsche officials say that not only will the site contain the company's U.S. headquarters, but a technical training center along a customer and driving experience center featuring a 1.6 mile test track and handling circuit.
State officials say that the 26.4-acre complex will employ 400 worker and create 100 jobs with operations set to begin in the first quarter of 2014.

Alexi Lubomirski for Harpers Bazaar |
The chart-topping Katy Perry opens up about her new hubby Russell Brand, being in competition with her good friend Rihanna, and the art of the tease.
"I'm kind of a good girl -- and I'm not," Perry says in a new interview with Harper's Bazaar. "I'm a good girl because I really believe in love, integrity, and respect. I'm a bad girl because I like to tease. I know that I have sex appeal in my deck of cards. But I like to get people thinking. That's what the stories in my music do."
Making headlines recently was the pop star's wedding to British comedian Russell Brand, whom she says has all the qualities she was looking for.
"We're at different places in our lives, but we can still grow together," she says. "He's thought-provoking, articulate, a real advocate. I also definitely wanted to have a laugh. I have all that in him."
Meanwhile, Perry says there's no competitive feelings between her and good friend Rihanna, saying there's enough room in the music world for the both of them.
"We are all unique," she says. "That's why we all win and we all can exist. People don't want just vanilla. They want 31 flavors. I couldn't do what Rihanna does. I couldn't do what Gaga does. They can't do what I do."
The December issue of Harper's Bazaar is on newsstands November 23.

Japanese Champion, Narita, to Race A1
Friday, January 4, 2013 | 9:50 AMNarita will be competing aboard a Honda CRF450R for Team HRC (Honda Racing Corporation). Narita sees his participation is the U.S. Supercross series as a way to boost his riding to the next level. "Supercross racing in the U.S. is the highest level of the sport, and the best possible training for me prior to the All Japan championship," said Narita. "I appreciate the support of HRC and American Honda in my racing here."
While this HRC effort is separate from American Honda, you can find Narita's support rig parked with the Team Honda Muscle Milk trucks so the teams can work together to assist Narita in his quest to compete in the most competitive Supercross field in the world. Look for this multi-time Japanese champion on the starting line at Anaheim 1 on January 5, 2013.

Should read "japanese Champion Narita to TRY to race A1!"
Dude might not even qualify for the night show...- no disrespect intended.
It shows he has some balls though,a lot of other guys that could come over and try but have to much pride to get beat!
He won't make the program. That's why Japan doesn't want any U.S.
guys racing in their series anymore.
Narita has podiumed once in supercross before. He got 3rd at Anaheim 1 in 2005, the 125 West opener.
Dude been qualifying since 1998!!
He is/was a great rider. He will not make the main. This is the deepest field in the history of the sport.
Anybody know his bike number?
Not on the entry list (per: HOW TO WATCH ANAHEIM 1), far as I could see.
@jgbvr respect the race if it were not for them asians yall would not have any bikes to ride silly redneck
KTM TM APRILIA HUSKAVARNA shut up beeatch ill go ride a KTM all day! silly redneck
i can do this shyt all day long
its spelled Husqvarna you stupid redneck
ronnie u still mad? u put ur foot in ur mouth about me not knowing dudes that make mains. besides all that, am i wrong? are them jap bikes? NO!!!! that what i thought...
you must have sounded it out like they tell kindergarten kids to do...HUS-KA-VARNA...good job, you get a gold star!!
ya ronpuss i dropt outta school to go to iraq! so im dumb ur rite happy! now u old ass man blow ur self.
Your intelligence is overwhelming...
I thinks it's great to see Akira over here again and good for him for giving it a shot as you don't see many EU champions giving it a try.
@MotoXScript. Akira's number according the the pre-entry list will be #982
Anyone notice that all the top guys are on the pre-entry list for the 250's at A1?
Would be great if they all really did show up and not skip to the East.
@ klrman1
It will be interesting to see if he makes it past a Qualifier and into a Heat Race. If so, I'm sure the Boys in the booth will mention it. Know how old a guy He is? If super_fro_daddy (said he's been qualifying since '98) is correct, the guy could be in his late 20's... even early 30's...?
narita raced outdoors with travis pastrona on 125.
Akira Narita: 32 yrs. young (born 1980)... eats Sushi for breakfast... has every episode of SpongeBob SquarePants DVR'd, owns an Akita dog...
(made at least one or two of those up).
He may still have a few fast laps in him. He may also be stunned at how fast everyone else is too. Going to be fun for sure. My money's on RV for A1 and JB for the title because of his starts, but who knows. Maybe James is going to surprise everyone, or Reedy. Have my bigscreen tv all tuned and polished for this race,so it better be good lol.
wheres all the Europeans? easy pickings for them now.
In Osaka or Tokyo... waiting for the racing season to begin !?
Seems like Narita has been around forever. He has shown good speed in the past but I won't be surprised if he watches the main from the stands.
. Good luck to him though. Takes balls for a champion to step outside of his comfort zone.
Yes he has been around for a long time! It will be interesting to see how he does my bookie says to put my money on Hannah though!
your an idiot the ktm wouldnt be a good bike today if they didnt have the great asian bikes to reverse engineer get your facts straight you uneducated hillbilly

While I'm away, readers give the advice.
• On severing ties with in-laws/grandparents because your spouse has died: Not long after breaking the news to me that his girlfriend was pregnant, my 18-year-old son was murdered. One of the things that helped me maintain some normalcy in my life is that I had to help provide for my future granddaughter.
Seventeen years later, I have been permitted by her mother to play a great part in my granddaughter's life — so much so that my granddaughter thinks of me more as a father than her grandfather. Without her mother's devotion to and understanding of family connections, my life wouldn't have been the same.
To this day, when I see my precious baby girl, it is like I still have my son with me. My advice is to please let the grandparents maintain a connection with their grandkids.
• On being the only one making an effort to save the marriage: If your spouse is considering leaving the marriage, one technique is to find a good divorce lawyer and have an initial consultation, which is usually free. Also find a good marriage counselor and have a session or two by yourself.
Then hand your spouse a business card from both and ask at which office he or she would like to meet you. I know people who have saved their marriages this way.
• On facing devout parents shocked to learn of a child's atheism: As a teenage atheist daughter of Christian parents, I would like to respond to parents:
Don't panic. In all likelihood, your children will be well-adjusted members of society. Be glad they feel safe enough to trust you not to overreact to their choice. Harassing them about Christianity, treating them like rebellious teenagers or undermining their ability to make decisions will only distance them from you.
Instead, mom-up and tell them you are OK with it. (Remember that two-thirds of the world isn't Christian.) Tell them you won't force them to go to church or participate in prayers.
Do tell them you expect them to be decent human beings no matter whom they pray or don't pray to. That is a universal value.

Bump, still available I have some suspension components I would be willing to negotiate on selling with the chassis. They are listed below:
Rear knuckles with bearings and hubs (used). $100 for the pair+ shipping
Front knuckles (used) $125 for the pair, DOES NOT INCLUDE SPL BALL JOINT SHANKS. + shipping
Rear camber arms $75 for the pair (brand unknown) + shipping
Rear lat links $30 for the pair + shipping
SPL Outers with shanks and bump steer spacers and tein inners with rack spacers SOLD
Front ABS sensors, good condition, $75 for the pair + shipping
Pikes Peak White door mirrors, $75 each, $100 for the pair. + shipping
Rear toe arms/lower spring mounts. $50 for the pair + shipping
Vented Hood, black, could use a buffing (paint is meh), drilled for hood pins, will include new set of LongAcre Hood pins. $150 obo + shipping
Front Crash beam $75 + shipping
That stuff can be worked into a deal for the chassis at a better price. Also, if this stuff isn't gone by May 1st, I'm going to start cutting things and selling for scrap metal. So if you're interested, make me an offer.
whats the cheapest you ll go for the shell only. i cant cross the border anymore so i need to send a bed driver there... give me a deal of the life time ill pick it up
ps: as a scrap metal it will be 185 dollar. no lie.
Yes, I could. However parts + labor would be cost prohibitive for a buyer.
It'll be closer to $400 in scrap, but I won't sell it to someone for anywhere near that. As for "cheapest I'll go".... the price says best offer, it's already priced at a reasonable price point. I dont NEED you to buy this from me, so if no one pays what it's worth I'll cut it up and eat the loss.
One last bump with a price drop. Have had lots of people waste my time on this saying they are coming to pick it up, or asking a million questions and then not responding to messages, etc. Make me an offer before I scrap this.
