Freshman Sires of 2014
As 2014 enters the home stretch, the freshman sire title seems to have boiled down to a three-way race.
As 2014 enters the home stretch, the freshman sire title seems to have boiled down to a three-way race.
Average and median increased Nov. 8 at the Keeneland November breeding stock sale's fifth session, where a robust but select market continued into Book 3.
WinStar Farm announced 2015 stud fees for most of its 22-stallion roster, which is headed again by leading sire Distorted Humor at $100,000 stands and nurses, and includes a new fee for leading freshman sire Super Saver.
Ian Tapp reviews the days results and catches up with Pope McLean Jr., director, business manager for Crestwood Farm and Bayne Welker, Fasig-Tipton vice president of sales. watch video
Topped by a $370,000 Super Saver ridgling, Fasig-Tipton Kentucky's October yearling sale rang up increases across the board, but the buyback rate also climbed.
After hitting the gate at the start, Rimsky was soon in command and romped to a five-length win in the fifth race at Gulfstream Park Sept. 19 to become the first winner for grade I winner Line of David.
Seven yearlings brought $200,000 or more Sept. 16 at the Keeneland September sale's eighth session as the first week's momentum seemed to carry over into the later market.
Juddmonte Farm purchases a $600,000 Trappe Shot colt, a three-quarters brother to Tapizar, at Keeneland September's Book 2 opener, which posted mixed results Sept. 13.
Brethren, a half brother to Kentucky Derby winner and leading freshman sire Super Saver, is moving from Journeyman Stud near Ocala, Fla., to Pleasant Acres, near Morriston, Fla., for the 2015 breeding season.
Super Saver's first crop began attracting attention at the 2013 yearling sales. His foals have only improved since then and have now placed the 2010 Kentucky Derby winner at the top of the freshman sire list.
John Sikura of Hill 'n' Dale discusses the Keeneland September sale and Super Saver's half brother. watch video
A selection of Keeneland September yearlings with noteworthy pedigrees set to sell on Sept. 9 at the auction's second session
Competitive Edge lived up to his 3-5 odds with a no-doubt-about-it romp in the $350,000 Hopeful Stakes (gr. I) for 2-year-olds on closing day of the Saratoga Race Course summer meet Sept. 1.
Javier Castellano, waiting for room aboard I Spent It in the stretch, squeezed through on the rail at the furlong mark and cleared off to win the Toyota Saratoga Special Stakes (gr. II) in smashing style Aug. 10 at Saratoga.
The Fasig-Tipton preferred sale of New York-bred yearlings concluded Aug. 10 on a positive note, with the overall two-day average increasing 11% and the median up 18% over the same sale at Saratoga Springs, N.Y., a year ago.
One year after increasing the purses of 19 stakes races, Oaklawn has planned the richest stakes schedule in track history for 2015. Chief among the changes is a $150,000 bump to the Rebel Stakes (gr. II).
In his career debut at Belmont Park, I Spent It showed a good kick in the stretch to notch a three-quarter-length victory in a five-furlong maiden special weight race to become the first winner for freshman sire Super Saver.
Ken and Sarah Ramsey's Vicar's in Trouble is the 3-1 morning line favorite for the June 28 Iowa Derby (gr. III). The 3-year-old son of Into Mischief is making his first start since the May 3 Run for the Roses.
Top Fortitude, overlooked by bettors at 30-1 after a poor 2014 debut a month earlier, outfought his challengers in the stretch May 10 to post a huge surprise in the $100,000 Lazaro Barrera Stakes (gr. III) at Santa Anita.
The Barretts May 2-year-old sale is riding a wave of momentum that includes a March sale topper of $1,150,000 and a May 2013 sale that grew in every category over the previous year.
Aron Wellman and Lee Midkiff have grown a fledgling partnership group into the program producing grade I winners such as In Lingerie, Byrama, Capo Bastone, and now Arkansas Derby (gr. I) victor Danza.
A pair of regally-bred colts by Curlin and Bernardini garnered the most attention at the third session of Ocala Breeders' Sales Co.'s spring sale of 2-year-olds in training April 23, each selling for $700,000.
Steve Haskin shares his thoughts on Danza's shocking performance in the Arkansas Derby and what it could mean for the Kentucky Derby contender.

Cheshire neighbors fear noise, vibrations from company's new equipment
CHESHIRE — A plan by Consolidated Industries to replace industrial size hammers at its facility is being opposed by neighbors.
This is the second try for the Mixville Road company to modernize its facility. In September, the company withdrew plans to build a 20,000-square-foot addition that would house new, more modern equipment.

I think it's an interesting idea. I could see Kes helping rehumanize Seven instead of the Doc, perhaps using her psychic abilities to benefit somehow. Obviously, Seven would probably become the Ops officer, which frankly makes more sense than giving her a non-position as they did.
I wonder if they would have actually let Kes age? If so it would have been interesting if she transitioned from a sisterly relationship to Seven, into more of a mentorship, and then finally Kes dies and the first real human moment Seven has is this - she cries. It would also be interesting if Kes turned into a Jean Grey and came back to life via her psychic powers.
That would have been cool.
I do agree with some of your points here. If someone would have been a great support for Seven, the it would have been Kes.
Just remember The Doctor in the beginning of the series. He was nothing but a hologram, programmed with bad personal behavior and almost everyone on the ship found him annoying. But not Kes!
She showed compassion for The Doctor, she told him that he was actually a sentient being despite being only a hologram and helped The Doctor to start looking at himself as such as well. She also made the crew start treating The Doctor with respect and in a short time, everyone saw The Doctor as a colleague instead of just a program. Not to mention that she actually saved The Doctor too, in "The Swarm" when she came up with a brilliant solution for the problem.
If Kes could do that for a program, she would have had even better chance with a living person.
As for the aging and death scene, I could live without that. I've had more than enought of such scenes in syrupy soap operas. Besides that, as I've pointed out before, there would have been problems with the make up. Actors with make up which would make them look old just look terrible, it looks more like some disease than real aging.
As for the "Jean Grey" thing, now that's actually interesting. But a prolonging of the lifespan would have been better.
Who'd let that cat in here?

Try one cookie sheet of cut-outs and if it still spreads (and the dough is quite soft) definitely add just a little more flour.

I tried your recipe and it tastes fab! They did spread a lot though. Wait, wait before you start throwing rolling pins at me people, wait...
I chilled the dough so used the smaller quantity of flour, replaced the shortening with butter but I don't use flour when rolling and cutting so I guess that's why they spread and I probably need more flour in the dough?

Americans worried about European-style big government have something new to fear: the police arresting you for cooking. In particular, cooking crabs and lobsters. Seriously.
In March of this year, a scientific team in the UK released a report indicating, through the use of some novel experiments, that crabs may well feel pain. The study overturned decades of claims that crustaceans can't feel much at all, and garnered worldwide attention. Now, in this week's edition of New Scientist, a researcher in the UK named Peter Fraser, who uses crabs in his experiments, has fought back, writing that crabs feeling pain is about as likely as crabs being able to enjoy a good opera.
So the debate continues, except that, astonishingly, Mr. Fraser may turn out to be on the wrong side. I wouldn't be surprised if there are chefs out there who play opera for their lobsters to ease their final moments. And I can tell you for certain that there is a small army of animal-rights activists in Europe lobbying for new laws for crabs, lobsters, crayfish, and other invertebrates. The idea is to give these charming underwater bugs the same legal protections against cruelty already afforded to pigs, cows, and other mammals. Which, for starters, would mean not boiling them alive.
With or without a law, it would actually make perfect sense to try to minimize the suffering of crustaceans when we prepare them for cooking.
If this sounds crazy, consider the fact that New Zealand has already included crustaceans in its animal protection laws, and that in 2005, the Italian town of Reggio Emilia banned the boiling of lobsters. That same year, the Scottish group Advocates for Animals released a convincing report arguing that invertebrates possess much of the neural circuitry to process pain. A UK group called the Shellfish Network has been a tireless proponent of crustacean rights, and given the mounting evidence and changing attitudes, European parliaments seem at least willing to consider such laws at the national level. The crab report this March has provided additional ammunition. People like Mr. Fraser are nervous.
If Europe does eventually adopt crustacean-rights legislation, the US will have a hard time avoiding the issue. So what's a cook to do -- prepare for a future of boiling lobsters and crabs in the utmost secrecy, with the doors locked and the shades drawn? For most people, dispatching live animals in the kitchen is traumatic enough as it is, without the fear of landing in jail.
But therein lies the crux of the matter. After all, we are killing animals to eat them. Those pigs, cows, and other mammals who already have legal protections are also getting killed to eat, and the laws, however imperfect, are there simply to reduce unnecessary suffering in the process. Even with further advances in science, we may never know precisely what crustaceans feel. But it doesn't take much of a leap to imagine that being boiled alive isn't pleasant, and that's exactly why we're squeamish. In a way, it's strange that our basic laws against animal cruelty don't already include crustaceans.

My take is that Herman and Urbs are very "aligned" and Herman defiintely went to bat for Ash. He probably fits their circle well.....I think this could be part of the problem with Fickell.
I have and that doesn't change anything about what happened. The coverup was much bigger than the crime...that's where I'm coming from I guess.
This discussion is over because I have now shifted all my attention forever to your profile picture.
Great points. +1.....I think that fine line of loyalty vs demanding accountability is a very gray one.
Thank you....I obviously haven't seen what you have. Thank you for your insight, I will continue to monitor where and how Maurice continues with his life and message. I hope to have my opinion changed.
I mean his decision making process throughout the TAT5 ordeal was really inexcusable. It cost the University millions and our national reputation is just now emerging from the toilet. I would also say that added to that scandal we became a national embarrassment vs. the SEC and in several other high profile games (USC). Like it or not, outside of our Buckeye world virtually no one wants to see us back in the NC game. I give Tress credit for restoring our record against SCUM and of course the 2002 season which was magical looking back. I think he's a good coach and probably a very good man. He's earned respect, but that's it. He was handsomely paid to achieve those things.
Just the way I see it. I feel better about the program and accountability now.
Understood....just my opinion.
Yeah....I'm tired of this story and the Youngstown Boys. I think it's great that Maurice has had a change of heart and become a better person....but isn't that what we're supposed to do? I know tons of people that are 3 times the human being Clarett is but will not get a write up here or a 30 for 30 film. Tressel did a ton for OSU football but man I disagree with the pedestal we put him on. He did some very bad as well...that seems to be lost. I guess I'm just not enamored with these guys and all the things that went down with them. I'll take the current situation and staff every time. Let's move on.
Just my take...downvote at will.
As a Louisiana resident....this week and this week only I am a 100% insufferable Tiger fan.
Geaux Tigers!
Last night while watching the game...my wife, who is a Southerner and knows NOTHING about Hoke just nonchalantly says: "Michigan's coach looks like he's put on his winter 15 already".
I renewed her contract on the spot.
Yes, yes he is. I wonder what his super hot wife thinks when she sees this stuff....or wakes up in the morning with his giant sweaty head next to her.
I personally think we should never kick again. If we score 2 pointers only 50% of the time we are still on schedule right?
Good and bad memories. He was my fave QB back in the day along with the Pruitt brothers running the ball.....how bout some Ozzy at TE?
That AFC championship loss to Qakland almost ruined my life!
Old guy #2
Dear Mark Emmert, not only were you the Chancellor of Louisiana's Sorriest University (LSU) you sir are now also:
Agreed....truth be told Chip Kelly lost most of his bigger games. I'm not sure they're top 5 even if he hadn't left.
You know, I really thought at first that his sights were set on an NFL coaching job but I think he and his family are settled in. One of those rare guys that has instant credibility based on his accomplishments.
Urban is driven. He wants to be the guy to bring the title and football respect back to the B1G.
I'm hoping for the NC first. We saw what the Heisman circuit did to Troy Smith. Maybe the Heisman next year?
Our Purgatory is almost OVER! Is it possible to figure out a way to increase the season to like 10 months long? I'm being serious!
I agree.....just don't lose late.
It really has been.....brutal.....like football supermax prison.
All quiet on the Roby front. Is it possible that Hyde and Roby missing a few easier games actually reduce their risk of injury / gets some other guys valuable game play experience? We'll need them for sure at the end.
LSU....because I live and work in Louisiana. LSU fans are the WORST and truly believe no other football is played outside the SEC. The also never remember when they lose. They also think they have been good for 100 years.
Unfortunately the Buckeyes have reinforced their superiority complex. I would delight in evening the score and changing the perception.
What's funny is they believe we are now contenders because UM coached in the SEC where he learned how to play real football which automatically makes us faster, tougher, and competitive.
I hope the football Gods read this comment.
Death to the SEC!
Scott has sold his soul to the devil for these skills.

Pet it Out
Last edited by goiMot; 12-02-2011 at 10:14 PM..
Game Impressions
This is some footage of the HD Version which should be out in the next couple of Weeks. The Gameplay is itself the same on both iDevices.
Hi everybody,
My name is Luis Guimaraes, I'm from Brazil, and I'm the main designer/developer of this game. I basically wanted to make a platformer game and didn't want to put buttons to control it but instead do something specific for the touch screen, something that I felt was lacking despite so many tips that a game like this would come out inevitably.
It's out only for iPhone yet, but it's under approval for iPad already. I'll update here when it's out.
Here are some gameplay trailers from my youtube channel:
iPhone Trailers (myself playing):
- Extended iPhone trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lyyNadW5ZU
- Short iPhone trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40zfvwnkR5E
iPad Trailers (a friend of mine playing):
- Extended iPad trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSZCT5a50sw
- Short iPad trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KUOcbAG5JA
Reviews so far:

- http://www.appbattleground.com/revie...ne-ipod-touch/
- http://www.theiphoneappreview.com/20...ne-app-review/
- http://www.crazymikesapps.com/free-t...oo-pet-it-out/
- http://www.mobilephoneconnect.com/i-phone-apps/pet
I'd like to know what you guys think of the game, what are it's strengths that I should keep exploring and what could be improved.
Here are the links for the AppStore:
- iPhone Lite http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pet-it-out-lite/id486063025?mt=8
- iPad Lite (under Apple approval)
- iPhone http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pet-it-out/id457254082?ls=1&mt=8
- iPad http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pet-it-out-hd/id482580183?ls=1&mt=8
I can giveaway some Promo Codes, but apple puts a cap on how many I can share. But feel free to contact me if you want one. All I ask is a sincere rating for the game. But please try the Lite version first to see if you're interested in playing through the full game.
By the way, it's a challenging game, the Lite version show a bit of it. I already have 60 more levels made for the updates, they're even harder then the 150 in the game. But I need the community to guide me if you want more challenges or some easier levels to just have fun with. Some people found it too difficult, others want even harder levels.
I hope you guys like it. All feedback is welcome!
Please tell me if any bug or performance problem is found.
Good gaming guys!

Quick Promo Code Giveaway!
I have 15 promo codes for version 1.0.1 for a quick giveaway but only today!
That's because a new update is under approval by Apple and they usually delete the previous version, so the codes for the early version are lost. You can then update the new version for free when the new one is approved.
Please PM today, the codes are for the iPhone version!
Last edited by luaudesigndf; 12-14-2011 at 11:13 AM.. Reason: cleaning up
Left a 5/5 review in the US AppStore -
here it is;
"Pet it Out totally took me by surprise. At first, I thought it was going to be just another physics based flicking puzzler, like there are so many of in the AppStore - but once I got into it and realized it was more of a flicking platformer - it totally took me over! Needing to collect 5 stars and a trophy in each level is great, and adds plenty of replay value to the game, but also having some levels where you need to activate the exit portal by hitting a portal button is a great addition. What really makes the game challenging though is that the level's are scored based on how quickly you can complete them, and also having 8 different GC leaderboards, as well as 47 achievements, it adds even more challenge, and way more replay value than the game already had...
Thank you for a great game! I can't wait to see what you guys have in store for us with future updates, and hopefully, future games! =oD"
And yes! I already have plans for new game, about to start by January.

HD version released tomorrow
That's it! iPad version is also approved, set to appear tomorrow in the Store, coupled with the HD Lite version together! However, I can share up to 45 Promo Codes of the HD Lite version today, for who wants it right now, before it's listed tomorrow morning!
Please don't ask the full version yet, as I have to send the promo codes to review sites, so I have to save. HD version is iPad only!
Send me PM! And good gaming! o/

Backgrounds Gallery, Incoming Pet Contest, and other things
Hey everybody, I uploaded all background, including the new ones to come, it's right here:
The HD version is released already, but HD Lite is still under review.
Thanks everybody for the ratings.
And I just finished the design for the 8th pet, it's coming soon! o/
(BTW: I plan on organizing a contest for the 12th pet, which is going to be the last one, the first tutorial page will be dedicated for honors to the contest winner, it's not going on yet, but anybody interested can start on planning. If it happens that I make any other pet from player tips, I might also dedicate a tutorial page for special thanks)
Thanks everybody! Good gaming!

Since 2000, the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania has been systematically tracking suicide data and coverage of suicide during the winter holiday season. In the past year, the study shows, there was an increase in stories implying that suicide increases during the winter months.
The problem with these types of stories? Well, they're just not true.
Why does the holiday suicide myth persist in the face of evidence to the contrary?
It would be hard to miss how much suicide has been in the news over the past year - from celebrities, to people connected to celebrities, to generally greater (both more and better) coverage of an often-taboo subject.
That increased coverage, and the increased awareness it may build, might be contributing to the persistence of the holiday-suicide myth.
Is there any truth to a seasonal suicide connection? Yes, and it might not be what you're thinking. Suicide rates have been shown to be higher in spring and summer months.

A couple of weeks ago, we began our morning by watching the moon appear to "kiss" Venus. At dusk tonight (if skies are clear) we'll watch Jupiter seem to cozy up to the very same moon.
We suggest you look about one-third of the way above the southeast horizon tonight at 7 p.m. You'll see a waxing gibbous moon just to the left of Jupiter. They'll seem very close in the sky, but they won't be. The moon will be about 248,000 miles from Earth. But Jupiter will be more than 400 million miles away.

Top it off with an umbrella in your drink.
You only get to enjoy spring break while you're young (somehow, professional companies don't recognize this official week-long holiday), so enjoy it in a comfy, sporty tee like the Billabong Spring Break long-sleeved shirt. A wide neckline and super-soft cotton and poly fabric blend give the shirt a comfy, laid-back vibe that is perfect for vacationing ... or wishing you were vacationing.

Moderator: Move if improper forum.
My primary holster is OWB during the cold winter months; which BTW is too long this year. LOL
The holster has the typical forward cant. I carry on my right side about 3:30-4 O'clock.
My typical draw is to drop my right leg back as I clear my jacket with the left hand.
The forward cant pretty much forces this movement on me as attempting to withdraw the weapon straight up is met with holster resistance.
Because of this initial movement, I rarely find myself moving into the Weaver stance.
As a martial arts practitioner, I personally see a benefit in this movement.
1) It positions me in the standard defensive boxers stance.
2) My left hand is free for strikes, weapon deflection of the attacker.
3) It places my weapon further from the attacker.
4) It positions my body well for counter strikes.
5) Excellent stability in stance.
The only real negative I see in the forward cant holster is being on my back could prove difficult to withdraw the weapon.
My understanding from reading is that the forward cant conceptually is designed as a minimal amount of retention
from a attacker attempting to access my weapon from behind me.
So I'm curious for discussion only if others see these benefits as well in using the forward cant holster?

All natural GABA has been used for decades to promote focus and mental clarity. GABA, produced in the central nervous system, is the body's natural muscle relaxant, tranquilizer and nerve calmer. While GABA is an amino acid, it is classified as a neurotransmitter and helps induce relaxation. Jones uses an all natural form of GABA, produced from Lactobacillus hilgardii to promote peak performance for individuals seeking mental calmness and improved concentration.About Jones Soda Co.

Mommy, the five-year-old girl asked her mother, "why don't you get divorced again?" Her thrice-married mother was taken aback and said in return, "Honey, why in the world should I do that?" To which her daughter replied "Well, I haven't seen you in love for such a long time."
This young girl perceives family life and the adult world in a very different way than did her counterpart less than half a century ago. Likewise, the mother perceives her daughter quite differently than did a mother raising a child in the 1940s. Although this mother was surprised at her daughter's question, she was not surprised at her understanding of divorce, nor at her familiarity with the symptoms of romance.
As this anecdote suggests, there has been a remarkable transformation over the last 50 years in our children's perceptions of us, and in our perceptions of our children. These altered perceptions are a very small part of a much larger tectonic shift in our society in general and in our families in particular. This shift is nothing less than a transformation of the basic framework, or paradigm, within which we think about and thus perceive our world. To understand the changes in the family, the perceptions of family members, and of parenting that have been brought about, we first have to look at this broader "paradigm shift" and what it has meant for family sentiments, values, and perceptions.

French gunman Mohammed Merah, who killed seven people in France before police besieging his home shot him dead, has been buried in Toulouse, despite the mayor saying a burial in his hometown was "inappropriate".
Merah, a 23-year-old Frenchman of Algerian descent, was buried in the Muslim section of a cemetery in the neighbourhood of Cornebarrieu, on the outskirts of Toulouse, sources said.
A Reuters witness said his body was buried around 7pm (1700 GMT) amid a large police presence.
Television images showed Merah's hearse arriving at the cemetery where about 20 men attended the ceremony, hiding their faces from reporters gathered outside.
"It's all over. We aren't talking about it anymore. He is in his grave,'' Abdallah Zekri of the French Muslim Council, or CFCM, said afterwards.
Those attending the ceremony were mostly young friends of Merah's from the housing projects where he grew up, Zekri said.
Zekri led protracted negotiations in recent days with Merah's family, Algerian authorities and Toulouse authorities over where to bury him.
Quick burial
Merah's burial came after French President Nicolas Sarkozy earlier on Thursday called for the gunman to be buried quickly in France without argument, after both his hometown and ancestral homeland reportedly refused his remains.
"This decision could disturb public order and goes against the efforts I've made to unite Toulouse's citizens since thestart of these odious crimes that have plunged our city into mourning"
- Toulouse mayor Pierre Cohen
"He was French. Let him be buried and let's not have any arguments about it," Sarkozy told BFMTV news channel, the AFP news agency reported.
This was despite Toulouse mayor Pierre Cohen's earlier request that the burial be postponed so that the French government could consider moving its location elsewhere.
Cohen said it was inappropriate to inter Merah in the southwestern city where the killings occurred.
"It seemed better to us to find another burial location," Cohen told reporters in Toulouse. "The minister I contacted reminded me of the law and as a result I have given permission for him to be buried tonight.
"This decision could disturb public order and goes against the efforts I've made to unite Toulouse's citizens since thestart of these odious crimes that have plunged our city into mourning."
Family members had earlier said that Merah's body was to be flown to Algeria on Thursday for burial. But Algerian authorities were against the move.
"The family has asked me to organise a funeral in France within 24 hours, in agreement with the authorities, because Algeria refused to accept Mohammed Merah's body for security reasons," Zekri said earlier on Thursday.
An Algerian government source told the Reuters news agency on Thursday: "Algeria has nothing to do with this case, and we do not understand why some circles in France are trying to involve us in it ... This is why we took the decision to not admit the body for now in Algeria."
Earlier, Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland, reporting from Paris, said: "It really seems that no one wants the body of Mohammed Merah.
"Certainly, members of the Jewish community in Toulouse say that it would be really inappropriate for a potential shrine to the gunman to be so close to the place where he carried out those shootings."
Nicole Yardeni, the regional head of Jewish umbrella group CRIF, said she hoped the authorities would do everything to ensure Merah's resting place did not become a pilgrimage site.
Cohen said he feared Merah would become a martyr.
Merah, who said he was inspired by al-Qaeda, confessed during the police standoff to having shot dead three soldiers, a rabbi and three Jewish children at point-blank range in a spate of attacks that shook France a month from a presidential election.

Laurent Mougeot got the idea in 2010 to help Saskatchewan's mayors with the transition to public life in the most unlikely of places - Ukraine.
"While we go there to share our best practices and expertise, I usually find that they do some things smarter than us. And this is one of the things that I brought back from Ukraine," said Mougeot, CEO of the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA).
That idea - Mayors Summer School - wrapped up Tuesday. This is the second year SUMA has held the twoday program at the University of Regina. Thirty-four mayors from cities, towns and villages in Saskatchewan enrolled in this year's program.
Topics included leadership and governance, decision making, legal matters, public relations and media training, creating a community vision and engaging residents.
The program doesn't focus on operational issues, such as flooding. Those issues are usually dealt with at SUMA's annual convention.
Instead, the summer school helps mayors, in some cases newly elected, make the transition from private to public life and apply the leadership skills they developed in their previous careers to municipal politics. "We try to inspire (mayors) and get them to think about what are the core values of their leadership," Mougeot said Tuesday.
"It's a lonely place - to be a mayor - sometimes."
The program also builds relationships and encourages a network of communication between mayors so they can help each other with issues and challenges they may face, including infrastructure, economic development and population growth.
"They copy me on their emails because they're seeking advice and support. And, within the group, they usually find the answers and the resources they need to support their inquiries." Besides networking, Mougeot hopes the participants leave with a "few more tools in their tool box" - such as a better understanding of municipal bylaws - to help them succeed as mayors.
"When mayors are elected, they move into this municipal environment where they have their own bylaws. But if they've never seen a minimum (property) maintenance bylaw, they don't know that becomes a tool to address the issue of derelict or abandoned properties," Mougeot said.
Fred Weekley was elected mayor of the District of Katepwa eight years ago. His background in financial planning helped with the transition to serving as mayor, but he discovered there were other relevant areas, such as trucking, that he hadn't had any experience with.
"My feeling when I became mayor was I needed to contribute to the community I lived in. That's the only reason (why) I got in ... That's why most of the people that run on these small councils do this - they do this because it's a genuine love of the community and wanting to be of assistance at helping to move the community forward," said Weekley.
"Transition to mayor is not a big deal. You show up and you don't know anything and you hope you have a good SAO (senior administrative officer) because she will help you and she will guide you. And that's what I've relied on - I've had terrific administrators."
