Team FMF/Suzuki Off-road's Paul Whibley continued to dominate the woods racing scene by rolling to an unquestioned victory at the very wet Maxxis Coyote Cross-country National, round four in the Parts Unlimited Off-road Motorcycle and ATV Nationals, in Waukon, Iowa. Tornados the day before as well as a weekend deluge let up just before the start, but halfway through the event, the skies opened up again, confirming the flash flood warnings and transforming one trickle of a creek into a torrent that swept at least one bike downstream.
None of that seemed to matter to Whibley, however. After winning his second consecutive series race and stretching his series points lead, Whibley observed, "I guess I'm more comfortable in this wet than the dust."
Whibley and his RG3/Maxima/Moose-sponsored RM-Z450 chased YZ250 racers Aaron Wegner and Trey Verardo into the first turn, with Wegner taking the $200 Vemar Helmets Holeshot Award, but by the end of the grass track section, Whibley was in front to stay.
Teammate Jimmy Jarrett switched from his usual RM250 to his Works Connection/VP Racing Fuels/Moose RM-Z450 and quickly slotted himself into second, but he seemed powerless to prevent Whibley from slowly disappearing and settled for his second straight runner-up finish, taking that spot in points as well.
Brian Garrahan found himself a bit outgunned on his little "Karate Kid," his Valli Construction/Maxxis/Answer YZ250F, but what he lost in the long field sections, he got back in the woods sections that, though rerouted and shortened due to the conditions, remained very challenging. Garrahan would end up third, the final racer to complete 10 laps.
Husaberg's Nick Fahringer reveled in the conditions and claimed fourth on his Pirelli/Castrol/Moose FE450e, his best series finish to date. Storm Lake Honda.com/Bachman Family Racing Team's Cooper Bailey recovered from a poor start and steadily picked off riders the rest of the race to end up fifth on his Fusion Graphics/Fastway/Moose CRF450R, the only other rider to complete nine laps.
Wegner splashed around to finish sixth ahead of motocrosser Dennis Stapleton, who'd raced a local supercross in California the day before. Storm Lake Honda.com/Bachman Family Racing Team's Aaron Branham rode to eighth ahead of Adam Bonneur who ended up drowning his Fun Mart Cycles YZ250 on the last lap while Shane Klimek rounded out the top 10 on his self-sponsored YZ250

I Can't Believe It's a Law Firm
As a law student I strongly suspected that people in the legal profession can be compared to the cast of The Simpsons. Now as a young attorney, my suspicions have largely been confirmed based on my exposure to the legal community at large. I would like to briefly outline some of The Simpsons characters that you may come across at your work-place.
Homer Simpson
I am certain that almost every firm, non-profit, government agency, etc. has a Homer in their midst. I'm not talking about a fat slob who eats 64 slices of American cheese in a single sitting—although that's certainly a possibility. No, I'm talking about the person who does the right thing by the purest of pure dumb luck. This person averts a nuclear litigation disaster by covering his or her eyes and counting "Eenie, meenie, miney, moe." Voila, case dismissed. Sanctions averted. Smoking gun found. Homer also has numerous Grammys, Emmys, spacewalks, and other never-in-a-lifetime accomplishments under his belt. Almost all of them are because he did something stupid, such as make prank calls to NASA. Homer thinks that the late-Earl Warren was a stripper, and he is deeply distraught that Justice Souter is in fact a nerd. Homer is not likely to have his voicemail set up because he does not know how to use a touch-tone phone. When it comes to negotiations, the other side will cave in to Homer's demands out of frustration, but then realize that "Homer Simpson is not the brilliant tactician [they] thought he was." On pro bono matters, Homer will win accolades for his enthusiasm. However, he works hard on such matters only to get rid of them. Homer has an alcohol addiction. During the substance abuse CLE programs, people often whisper his name for that incident with "that beer that has candy floating in it, you know Skittlebrau." In short, Homer is your average partner, District Attorney, or other elected official, such as a Sanitation Commissioner.
Marge Simpson
Marge is also likely to be partnership material, but not for the same reasons as Homer. Marge is smart, works hard, and is very detail oriented. She got to her position of leadership based on skills, intellect, and possibly lying about speaking a foreign language on her resume. Although repulsed by the idea of working with Marge, a Homer Simpson finds her indispensable for covering up his own mistakes. Marge is the lawyer who thinks everything through. If you want to weigh all of your options then be sure to bring Marge into the team. She will second-guess every decision ever made. If the firm wants to legalize gambling, everyone will naturally turn to Marge as the voice of opposition. Marge is the constant nagger. Those who work for Marge will almost certainly hear her asking a million questions: Did you include this case? Did you cite to that? Did you use an M-dash instead of an N-dash? Marge will even hit "reply all" to correct a grammatical mistake. Because she works long hours without any vacation, Marge is prone to a complete nervous breakdown while driving to work.
Lisa Simpson
You probably went to law school with Lisa, especially if it was an ivy league law school. For undergrad, she went to one of the seven sisters. You know the type: academic standout, plays musical instruments, and pursued law for the greater social good—probably vegetarianism inspired by Paul and Linda McCartney. Lisa has only one or two others who can match her intellectual prowess. Unfortunately, she also has no equals when it comes to pissing off the vast majority of other people around. [Ed. note: Hmmm]. Lisa is the associate who joins a law firm only to pay off her loans as quickly as possible. She is repulsed at the thought of working for a Mr. Burns (see below). As long as Lisa works at a firm, she will be a royal pain in the butt. Unlike Michael Clayton, Lisa will not cross any ethical boundaries for the good of the firm or family. She is especially opposed to stealing cable and bootlegging alcohol. Partners will be frequently tempted to send Lisa to her room to avoid hearing her protests. Lisa will be the first in her class to leave a law firm for opportunities in Costa Rica.
Bart Simpson
Bart is Lisa's direct rival. Bart did not go to the best schools. More likely than not, Bart went to a state school for undergrad and a law school hanging on to accreditation by a thread. Yet Bart can talk his way out of any situation, especially a sanctions hearing of some sort. He proudly displays pictures of his fraternity brothers in his office. Bart is your ace golfer, star hockey player, and trained shoplifter. You probably know a Bart in your firm's Dallas office.
Maggie Simpson
I am convinced that all transaction departments consist of Maggie Simpsons. I have not heard any of them say anything more than "Dada?"
Grampa Simpson / Troy McClure
If your firm has a named partner who is still hanging around, chances are he is either a Grampa Simpson or a Troy McClure. The Grampa Simpson variety comes to work in slippers. He tells tales that are incredible on several levels (such as claiming to have chased the Kaiser diggety-six miles for stealing our word "twenty"). His name appears on all the briefs, but the work is really that of associates like Bart and Lisa. Grampa Simpson remains at the firm because of his relation to Mr. Burns during the Great War and because he's a freemason.
The Troy McClure variety is different. This is the senior partner who walks into your office and introduces himself thusly: "Hi, I'm Joe Partner. You might remember me from such cases as Hawkins v. McGee." The executive committee just can't get rid of him (see Sidley Austin), and he simply refuses to go away (see every single name partner still practicing today).
Lionel Hutz
He is rumored to be a lawyer, and he has law degrees from Harvard, Yale, MIT, Oxford, the Sorbonne, and the Louvre to prove it. You're probably not going to find Lionel Hutz as an attorney at a law firm. (The title of this essay is the name of Hutz's law practice). Instead, your firm is probably involved in the prosecution or defense of a legal malpractice claim against Hutz.
So what is Hutz like? For one thing, Hutz worries when one of his witnesses take the oath to tell the truth seriously. He goes to trial with only "hearsay and conjecture [which] are kinds of evidence." If you open to the bar discipline section of this very magazine, I guarantee at least a few of the attorneys mentioned sound like they apprenticed under Hutz. Did they promise a client to win their case in 30 minutes or the pizza is free? Did they run away screaming when the opposing party revealed ten high-priced lawyers? Did they tell a client, "Mr. Simpson, the state bar forbids me from promising you a big cash settlement. But just between you and me, I promise you a big cash settlement." Did they sue the producers of The Neverending Story for fraudulent advertising? Did they offer their clients a belt of Scotch at 9:30 in the morning? Ask any Lisa, and she will confirm that Hutz is simply a shyster, or "a latter-day Clarence Darrow."
Moe Szyslak
The difference between Moe Szyslak and Lionel Hutz is that Moe has not yet been disciplined. Moe will expunge that DUI on your record while selling you a pint of Duff. Moe also traffics in killer whales and participates in illegal gambling. He is probably an undocumented alien not authorized to work. Moe is your average solo practitioner.
Charles Montgomery Burns / Springfield Nuclear Power Plant
I'm sure every attorney occasionally feels like s/he is representing Mr. Burns or the Power Plant. If your clients has done any of the following, then they have something in common with Mr. Burns:
• Pollute the environment so much that it leads to mutations
• Eliminate a competitor (the sun) by completely blocking it out
• Bribe government officials
• Pay hefty fines
• Sexually harass employees
• Bust unions
• Determine Republican Party nominees for mayoral elections
• Hire ringers for the company softball league
• "Crush the freedom fighters before the start of the rainy season"
• Prepare propaganda films comparing self to Christ
• Use a recycling plant as a front for killing all ocean life
• Wear loafers made from former gophers
Nevertheless, as an important client of the firm, Homer will stop at nothing to please Mr. Burns—even sacrificing the blood of the young Bart associate.

As you can probably tell from my list, I like moody, atmospheric books along with some fun sci-fi and fantasy adventures. One of the most enjoyable things to do when reading (to me at least) is escape. That's what all the books on my list have in common: they will all take you to a different place or time. Enjoy!

Rudy Giuliani's recent blunder on the subject of public funding for abortions is certainly making waves.
Here's Ross Douthat on the subject:
Giuliani's campaign has "thus far been able to shield him from the sort of mild media scrutiny that even your typical Republican endures." Which is impressive, I suppose, but "thus far" is only a month or so, and shielding their candidate from media scrutiny can't really be the Giuliani campaign's only strategy--or can it? This, I think, is the most alarming possibility for Rudy's many friends on the right: That their candidate, who can be a potent contender if he works out smart answers to the various inconvenient questions awaiting him, has instead decided that he's Rudy Giuliani, damn it, and the GOP can bloody well change to suit him rather than the other way around.
In short, Rudy's gaffe may have had a lot to do with Rudy's ego. When the former mayor jumped into the race, one of my TNR colleagues said that he didn't think Giuliani could win because the electorate would tire of his authoritarian tendencies. The corollary to this is that if you are imperious and domineering, you end up ignoring smart advisors and resisting necessary tweaks to your philosophy.

Please enter here to get those movies!
I'm pretty sure you would like to download some hot movies with the girl you just searched for, right? Well, did you expected to see so many videos of her? Or you knew you gonna find all those movies, and was just looking for the place where they are all stored with easy access? Well, from my point of view, there is nothing easier than to get a membership from the AlljapanesePass and enjoy all the movies, which are very nicely categorized, and so on. If you decide that you wanna see some cool videos today, please take out your paying card, enter the numbers and enjoy your access instantly! You can either watch or download the movies, so it's up to you.
Click here and see even more!
One thing to remind you though – you better download those movies instead of watching them online. In the unlikely event when all the servers will go down or content will have to be taken down, you will still have a local copy of your porn with Nozomi Hazuki. Redundancy is the best thing on the internet, and as long as you have secured your porn collection, you should be alright even in the worst blackout. Hopefully that will never happen, but you never know.. And it's better to be ready to whatever nature or other forces can throw at you! Be ready for lonely masturbation!
Get the movie tonight!
Here you can see only small screenshots of the actual movies. but if you make another step and go to the site ALlJapanesepass, then you will be so happy, dude! You will enjoy best images, movies of Nozomi Hazuki, and she will show you some really great sex scenes too. I mean, this girl definitely knows how to fuck with a guy – you just look at her eyes and at the size of her boobs. She doesn't like to hide them, she wants to show it to everyone, and everyone really likes it! Especially a guy like you, who has passion for Japanese ladies.. Exactly like me! I couldn't go anywhere without watching some quick porn first
Oh boy, you gonna love what you will find inside. Simply click on the images, you will notice at the beginning that most awesome movies are not just with Nozomi. She has lots of friends inside the website, and there are like 20000+ movies of Japanese ladies! Can you watch them all? Of course you could, but it's not likely you gonna do that Cause it gonna take you close to forever.. So please choose wisely, get only the best movies with best ratings. That way you will find the stuff that you would really have to checkout. Oh and btw, Nozomi Hazuki has a present for you.. You will find that present only after you get your password and look for her name on their site! They have very nice search so it's easy to navigate.. Let's see what does she offer there!
See those movies? Enjoy it here!

I teach an online course, Digital Media 70, Web Design Basics, where students use Adobe Dreamweaver and other web-based applications to combine text, graphics, and media. Learn the fundamentals to create, edit, and manage web sites. Students should have foundational knowledge of HTML and CSS, and also be able to create and edit graphics using Photoshop or an equivalent program. DM70 is best taken during the third semester of the Digital Media Program, after taking the prerequisite DM60, Web Publishing 1.
What we will cover:
The TLC is a technology resource center for faculty and staff. Our services are primarily instructional in nature. For example, any technology that's used to teach students, we support it. The most widely used technology is the web and faculty learn how to create web pages and use Blackboard to support course instruction. We also provide faculty help in creating podcasts, video tutorials, and how to teach online.
An online distance education course is delivered via the Internet using a campus-supported Learning Management System (LMS) called Blackboard. Some classes may require on-campus meetings for orientation or test sessions. Students are required to use a computer with Internet access as the primary technology and may be required to use other available technologies to acquire and learn course content. Through regular effective contact, instructor and students interact to complete assignments and assessments and to demonstrate Student Learning Outcomes.
Cabrillo College Staff Development, under the coordination of the Teaching & Learning Center offers faculty, staff and administrators activities and resources for professional development. The Staff Development Committee oversees Flex Week.
MA in Education, Instructional Technology, San Jose State University
BA in Biology, University of California, Santa Cruz
AS in Dental Hygiene, Cabrillo College
2006 to present, and 1997–2005
Director, Teaching & Learning Center, Cabrillo College
Distance Education, Technology Training and Support, Staff Development, Digital Media Instructor, Program Chair (2011 to present)
Online instructor with @ONE, a technology training project funded by the California Community College Chancellor's Office
Director of Enrollment Services
Coordination of the Enrollment Services Center project.
DM 70, Web Design Basics
In this introductory web design course, students use Dreamweaver and other web-based applications to combine text and graphics to create, edit and manage web sites. Students must have some coding experience in HTML and CSS. Nervous about the coding part? James can explain why coding is not as scary as it seems. Ability to create and edit graphics using Photoshop or an equivalent program is essential, and have regular access to a computer to do your work.Syllabus
DM70 is an ONLINE course, there are no on-campus meetings. Those students on a waitlist who wish to add MUST contact me via email before the term begins. I generally add an additional five students from the waitlist. Registered students may log in to Blackboard beginning the first day of classes. Follow the instructions on the the login page to activate your account. Registered students who do not complete the first week's assignments will be dropped from the course.
DM60: Web Publishing 1 and DM1: Introduction to Digital Media. You must have basic foundational knowledge of HTML and CSS and be able to use Photoshop or an equivalent program.
Adding This Course
If you wish to add the class after the term begins, contact me for an Add Code. Blackboard users must allow 1 business day for account activation.
There will be weekly live webconference sessions where students can ask questions and follow along with demonstrations. These sessions will also be archived for viewing at a later date if you cannot attend the live session.
There are plenty of opportunities to learn web design:
Regular class attendance (defined by online participation) is required.* Active participation in the course includes contributions to the discussion board on a weekly basis in addition to submitting assignments and taking quizzes. Online participation is a graded component of this course. You are required to spend at least 2 hours with the lecture material and an additional 6 hours practicing skills learned in the video lessons EACH WEEK during a time that works with your schedule. The course management system allows me to track your progress (participation) throughout the course.
Assess your readiness for online learning.*
*Online classes are not for everyone. It takes a great deal of self-motivation, good organizational skills, and regular participation to succeed. Excessive absence (missing more than two weeks of class assignments) can cause a student to be dropped from the course.
This course does not use a textbook, but requires a subscription to the Lynda.com online video library for Dreamweaver CC. The $39 cost is slightly less than a textbook and your subscription is good for the entire semester. Video lessons for each week also include downloadable practice files. (Note: If you are enrolled in an employment development program, your lynda.com invoice is your receipt for reimbursement.)
Online Video Lessons — lynda.com
Dreamweaver CC Essential Training is a tutorial including over 100 QuickTime videos designed for beginning to intermediate Dreamweaver users. It requires your instructor sign you up and you will be billed by the publisher. The cost is generally around $39 for the entire semester. Access to the training library will include additional tutorials on Wordpress and HTML5 responsive design. Access begins the second week of class and is good for the duration of the term.
For a video preview of Dreamweaver CC features, go to lynda.com
You can also get a Certificate of Completion for the Dreamweaver lynda.com course, including banners and links for your web site verifying your participation.
This course will be taught using a combination of written lessons and video demonstrations. The online library video lessons from lynda.com will be assigned each week. The Computer Technology Center at both the Aptos and Watsonville campus has computers for students to do their assignments on. Be sure to check out a headset for your workstation so you can turn up the audio to the desired volume.
Student Adobe Creative Cloud License ($19.99 per month with an annual license commitment)
Purchase online. This gives you access to every Adobe Creative Cloud application. If you take more than one Digital Media class, you have access to Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Flash, Premiere, After Effects, and InDesign.
You will need regular access to a computer and at least two different browsers such as Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. Be sure your browser is updated to the latest version, and you are running the latest version of Java. Your browser should be able to open PDF files and YouTube videos.
Getting Started
Register for the class. Detailed orientation information will be presented in Blackboard starting the first day of classes. Activate your Blackboard account at least 3 days before the first day. Log in the first day of the semester, read the orientation information, complete a short questionnaire, and introduce yourself in the Module 1 blog. The course is divided up into weekly Modules. So for week 1 you will be reading all the orientation information, and completing all items in the Module 1 folder as well.
All students needing accommodations should inform the instructor ASAP. Veterans may qualify for accommodations. Wounded Warriors may have acquired injuries which through the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) entitles the use of accommodations to ensure equal opportunity for students with verified disabilities. To determine if you qualify or need assistance with an accommodation, please contact the Accessibility Support Center, Room 1073, 479-6379.

|Effects of Stress Reduction on Eating, Fat Distribution, and Cell Aging Among Overweight Women
- Change in Abdominal Fat [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline in Abdominal Fat (baseline and 4 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Whole-body dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans were performed to assess body fat distribution. The DEXA densitometry (GE Healthcare Lunar Prodigy, Madison, Wis, USA) was adjusted to the fan beam mode and EnCore software version 9.15 was used. The primary region of interest was fat tissue from a rectangular region in the abdominal area defined by the upper boundary of the second lumbar vertebra to the lower edge of the fourth lumbar vertebra. The vertical sides were defined as the continuation of the lateral sides of the rib cage.
- Weight [ Time Frame: Change in Weight (baseline and 4 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Telomerase Activity [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline in Telomerase Activity at 4 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Cryopreserved peripheral blood nuclear cells (PBMCs) were thawed and live cells counted using a hemocytometer by the Trypan blue exclusion method. For each sample, an extract of 5000 cells per microliter was made and two concentrations, corresponding to 5000 and 10,000 cells, were assayed for each sample to ensure the assay was in the linear range. Telomerase activity was assayed by the Telomerase Repeat Amplification Protocol (TRAP) using a commercial kit (TRAPeze, Telomerase Detection kit, Upstate/ CHEMICON, Temecula, CA). Baseline and post-intervention samples for the same participant were assayed in the same batch and run on the same gel to eliminate any differences caused by reaction or procedural batch-to-batch variations. Technicians were blind to group assignment. Telomerase activity is defined as 1 unit = the amount of product from one 293T cell/10,000 PBMCs, and was quantified using the software ImageQuant 5.2 (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ).
- Change in Psychological Stress (Baseline and 4 Months) [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline in Psychological Stress ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The 10-item Perceived Stress Scale was used to evaluate perception of stressful events over the past month by using a 5-point Likert scale (0 = never to 4 = very often) (Cohen et al., 1983). The mean of the ten items was used in analysis. Higher scores indicate greater perceived stress.

|July 2008
|Primary Completion Date:
|October 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: CALMM
Participants receiving the 'Craving and Lifestyle Management through Mindfulness' intervention, i.e. program that combines stress reduction with mindful eating practices.
Behavioral: Craving and Lifestyle Management through Mindfulness
A preliminary, novel intervention was developed drawing on components from Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Mindfulness-Based Eating Awareness Training (MB-EAT). The intervention program consisted of nine 2.5-hour classes and one 7-hour silent day of guided meditation practice after class 6.
No Intervention: Waitlist Control
Participants were waitlisted for the intervention during the experimental phase.
Detailed Description:
Obesity is the largest growing epidemic, with about 65% of Americans overweight (Flegal, Carroll et al. 2002). Obesity, in particular, abdominal obesity, confers increased risk for a host of diseases, including hypertension, Type 2 diabetes, and coronary heart disease, resulting in shortened life span (Fontaine, Redden et al. 2003). Psychological stress is widely cited anecdotally as a factor that causes people to engage in overeating, and studies provide strong evidence that stress can promote obesity. Stress induces selective preference of sweet, high-fat food and increases visceral fat depots. The telomere maintenance system (telomerase activity and telomere length)are markers of cellular aging and predict mortality (Cawthon et al, 2003)and have been linked to both psychological stress and components of the metabolic syndrome. The proposed study adapts a program called Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) that has been shown to be effective in a variety of other stress-related conditions. Fifty overweight, pre-menopausal women at risk for the Metabolic Syndrome will be randomized in a 1:1 distribution to either a 3-month intervention to reduce stress and overeating [Craving and Lifestyle Management with Mindfulness (CALMM)] or wait list control group. The primary outcome measures include amounts of abdominal fat, weight, and telomerase activity. Data from this study are intended to provide pilot data for use in planning a larger randomized, controlled trial that will investigate the effects of the CALMM intervention on the metabolic and psychological processes assessed in this pilot study.

Ga. Dept. of Agriculture warns of horse EHV-1 outbreak in FloridaFrom Special Reports
The Georgia Department of Agriculture is warning Georgia show horse owners of an EHV-1 outbreak in Florida.
This past weekend, a horse participating in the "Horse Shows in the Sun" event in Ocala was referred to the University of Florida, College of Veterinary Medicine after showing clinical neurological signs on Feb. 20, state agriculture officials reported Thursday.
Since the original report, five additional horse linked to the HITS Show in Ocala and one horse that has not been linked have tested positive for the EHV-1 wild-type.
The Division of Animal Industry is conducting a disease investigation, which includes the HITS show grounds in Ocala and 12 other Florida locations.
Due to an increase in positive cases found, the Georgia Department of Agriculture recommends that all horses that attended the HITS show should not attend any additional shows for the next 21 days.
State officials also recommend that all horses that attend the show be isolated and monitored twice daily for fever and clinical signs of this disease.
Any horses that have been in contact with a horse that attended the HITS show should be included in the isolation. If there is evidence of fever or illness, a veterinarian should be consulted as soon as possible.
Georgia Department of Agriculture is asking all those in the equine community to report any suspected cases of EHV-1. For reporting, call the Georgia Department of Agriculture at 404-656-3671 or 404-656-3667.

Well, it must be the political season what with all
the name callin', finger pointn' questions 'bout
loyalty, bridge-buildin', nest-buildin' (J.
Jones, et al) an' whole host
of fun stuff bein' yelled 'bout.
Gonna be a windy an' entertain'
year.... American dem-o-cracy
at work!
Meanwhile, the North Texas Irish Festival will start
its 22nd year in Dallas (21 years at Fair
Park). As usual, with very little notice or
support from the
City's social, political or moneyed elite.
In the worldwide Celtic music and dance
culture, we are considered to be the 2nd
best Celtic (Irish, Scots,
Welsh, etc) music venue in
North America.
We are self-financed and make the thing work with
about 400 non-paid volunteers and one paid director. Something
most groups can't even come close to doing.
There are two major and one smaller Celtic Festivals
in North Texas every year and yet nothing mentioned in
the proposed "Touting North Texas" Tourism program.
On the few times I read the "Snooze", I read puff
stuff about "Regional Approach to tourism", etc. but
nothing about the Celts and what they have been doing
for years. The DMN may
send someone if it's a slow
news-time or "nothing else is going on (read: big ol'
paid ads).
The Ft Worth Star Telegram gives us three times as
much news coverage as does DMN.
As for Fair Park, things are at a point that we will
probably move out (like "The 500" did) when our
contract is over. So much for the "Crown Jewel"
of Dallas.
Meanwhile, back to the best entertainment money can
buy !

Kragthorpe: Officiating blunder is blemish for Pac-12
Every football coach endures some wild finishes and devastating losses, but Wisconsin's Gary Andersen sure seems to have absorbed more than his share of them.
In previous episodes as Utah's defensive coordinator and Utah State's coach, Andersen could second-guess himself, credit the opponent or blame his own players (which he rarely did). But Andersen pointed to a clear target the Pac-12 officiating crew in the case of the Badgers' 32-30 loss at Arizona State.
"The kids didn't quite decide that one," Andersen said Tuesday during the Big Ten's media teleconference.
It may be a stretch to connect the officials' blunders at the end of Saturday's game to the issues that surfaced during the men's basketball tournament last March, but there's no doubt that Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott and the conference have another huge blemish to overcome. Scott previously addressed football officiating by making personnel changes, but Saturday's ending produced more problems.
Scott reprimanded the officials and promised other punishment, likely forcing them to miss a game or two of work. Yet anyone from outside the league who can cite a litany of questionable officiating in inter-conference games involving Pac-12 teams in recent years just will add this misadventure to the list. Whether via ASU's win or Wisconsin's loss, the game potentially could affect BCS selections.
After the Badgers seemingly positioned themselves for a 32-yard field-goal attempt, only to have time expire in a weird sequence of events, Andersen considers the outcome incomplete.
"To me, it's the game that never ended," he said. "I don't care what anybody says about that."
Here's what happened: The Badgers drove quickly from their 17-yard line to the ASU 13. In strategy Wisconsin had practiced, Andersen and former Utah offensive coordinator Andy Ludwig instructed quarterback Joel Stave to take the snap, move to the middle of the field, kneel and place the ball then line up the offense and spike the ball to stop the clock.
Ludwig used those tactics with San Diego State last season, which resulted in a field goal that forced overtime at Nevada. But this time the officials dawdled while an ASU player jumped on the ball, and the last 15 seconds ran off the clock.
They obviously mishandled the situation. There's no guarantee the kick would have succeeded, considering some of Andersen's gut-wrenching defeats in Utah-BYU and USU-BYU games, in addition to USU's missing a game-winning field goal at Wisconsin last September.
"But I like our chances," said Andersen, who didn't like ASU coach Todd Graham's statement that "the best team won."
Graham said again Tuesday that ASU was "very deserving," pointing to the Sun Devils' 32 first downs to Wisconsin's 15, while saying ASU's own mistakes made the game close.
But there's no question the Devils profited from the biggest mistake of all.

I am reading Bill Randall's article on Navy Chiefs titled: U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer initiation ill-advisedly abolished. And I can't help but read all the comments. Some I agree with, others not so much. I like tradition when it advances the mission and makes our Sailors better at the job. As for hazing, it has no place in the Navy. And I don't have an opinion on CPO 365, yet. I was, however, worried when I heard Chief's initiation (transition) went away. We shall see what effect this has on our senior enlisted.
7 thoughts on "Making Chief Petty Officers"
I see more rules forced on the Navy by those who have never served. I remember the firestorm raised when a video came out about paratroopers having their jump wings hammered into their chest by others when they earned their jump wings. The dudes took pride in those two little scars. But some momma raised a shit storm about her baby being hurt.
As in the Corps, senior NCO's we would "pin" a new NCO's stripes on his arms. When I made Corporal I couldn't lift my arms for a few days.
I received a modified version of that every time and usually it was just a pro forma sort of thing…they're taking away Chief's initiation??? How positively disappointing…it made the trip more positive, alluring and interesting…why??
Great article by Master Chief Randall I hope the E-9 of the Navy gets a chance to read it. Real Master Chiefs can admit when they make a mistake.
If the Navy keeps on this wussyfication track it will have to start up an Office of Hazing Prevention probably headed by an Admiral, it has more of them than it has ships. OOPS.
The NAVADMIN establishes the Navy Office of Hazing Prevention (OPNAV N137) as the lead entity for hazing policy and tracking substantiated cases. Within each command, hazing is tracked by assigned command managed equal opportunity (CMEO) program managers, equal opportunity advisors, and equal opportunity program managers, who will then work with commanding officers to ensure timely reporting of incidents.
The above from..http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=72218
I remember back in the 70's when we crossed the equator they made us do a lot of things that are probably outlawed now. Bring back Tradition!

© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
COVINGTON -- The City Council will take another look at its alcohol ordinance following an application for a liquor license by someone who had a DUI conviction 18 years ago.
Planning Director Randy Vinson recently told the council that there is a statute of limitations of five years on such convictions for employees of establishments that serve alcohol, but there is none for owners/license applicants. Therefore, under the current ordinance, the applicant would not be eligible for a license.
The council agreed the ordinance should be revisited.
"I think he's probably learned his lesson after 18 years," said Mayor Kim Carter, who asked for information on what other cities allow before the council makes a decision.
In other news, the council agreed to abandon a portion of Lee Street between Conyers and Reynolds streets to accommodate a 60-unit affordable senior housing complex in Harristown that is expected to be under construction by June.
Affordable Equity Partners Inc. is developing the facility, which represents a $9 million private investment.
Jim Alexander, attorney for Affordable Equity Partners, said there are no residences along that portion of the street. He said signs could be placed notifying the public of the upcoming closure.
"It's for a worthy cause that I'm sure is going to benefit not only Harristown but the city of Covington," Councilwoman Hawnethia Williams said.
Finally, the City Council agreed not to take over maintenance of the ramps at Interstate 20 exit 90 west.
Connie Waller, executive director of Keep Covington-Newton Beautiful, wrote a letter to the council in March asking the city to take over the work that is currently the responsibility of the Georgia Department of Transportation but is not being done.
"We can't just continue to pick up where GDOT leaves off," Carter said. "At some point, we can't continue when the state has a shortfall ... I agree it's ugly. But we don't want to get our mow crew killed either, trying to make something pretty."
City Manager Steve Horton said there's "every type of bottle known to man" thrown out at the exit, but it's hazardous for road crews to get out there.
Horton said the city is already maintaining a portion of the exit area.
"I don't have a lot of desire to do more than we're doing out there," he said.

Arsenio – He's Back!
January 30th, 2013 · 1 Comment
The "Woofman" is back – the original, Arsenio Hall. By Valerie Milano Miami, FL (Hollywood Today) 1/30/13 - I had the chance to sit down with Arsenio at the NATPE 2013 Market and Conference at the Fountainbleau Hotel in Miami. "Um, wow I'm a pretty happy guy. I've really, really been blessed and by the way the only way you know happiness and blessings is because you've experienced the other end of that spectrum," Arsenio philosophized. "You gotta be away from work to know whether you like work, you know? You gotta be away from it to know how much you love having it." One of the original Kings of Late-Night, before Jimmy or Conan, there was Hall. ON air from 1989-1994, It's been quite a few years since the Arsenio Hall Show graced our living rooms, but on September 9th, he will return to the late-night landscape. No matter how long he's been off the talk show circuit he still gets woofed at wherever he goes. We've seen him battle through Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice" 5th season and on a daytime talk show, but he's been making it known he would like to return to late night. One of the reasons people love to tune in to Arsenio is his natural curiosity. "I asked Larry King for advice 20 years ago and he said 'You're gonna be fine because you're curious and that's what it takes. "And everybody has something that makes them different with a guest. And I'm gonna bring my own persona back to it." One particular story about why Hall would want to return to television talk I'd heard before but had to have him repeat for me. After a dinner one evening, his lawyer called to say, "Quincy Jones addressed a Beverly Hills ballroom and brought your name up out of nowhere. A non sequitur about how this business misses the "Arsenio Hall Show" and how he wishes it was still here. I heard about that and it sent me on a mission. You know, God probably just sent Quincy to give me a jump start because I was thinking it too." Just to bring the point home, Hall was at "The George Lopez Show" waiting for Lopez so they could go to a Laker game after taping. The musical guest was Snoop Dogg. "George texts me in his dressing room and he says come out here. So I go out there and he says 'You put Snoop on the first time, didn't you?" And I said, "Yes" and he says, "You should introduce him." "Ladies and gentlemen put your hands together for Snoop Doggy Dog" people are barking. The little curtain rolls and you see Snoop. At that point I was like they are gonna have to kill me to keep me away from late night." There is a lot of late-night competition, but Arsenio isn't feeling the pressure from anyone but himself. "I gotta bring an accelerated version of what I brought before. Some guys start their new show and they have no expectations," he told me. "I gotta bar that's up there that I gotta try to at least match. So sometimes I look at it in this unique situation I'm my only competition. I created my own hell."

Arsenio … How America has missed him. I remember staying up late and watching his show as a teenager. Aresenio stuck his hand in the fire with controversial guests that everyone else strayed away from. I respect his going against the grain and independence. I look forward to seeing his show. Best of luck Aresenio.

The FOGSI website has become an extremely important portal for all of us to be able to be connected to the organization and to each other. Today FOGSI is a large organization with over 25,505 members all over the country. We are the largest professional body in the world therefore it has become mandatory that we bring true professionalism to our organization. Any professional has four universal traits, responsiveness, knowledge, compassion and they always set an example for people to emulate. Adopting technology is one important step that we all have to undertake evolving into a true professionalism. Today information technology has helped dissemination of knowledge, information, and documentation at much faster pace. The FOGSI website should be one such destination that each member of FOGSI should travel to more often to seek what he wishes to. It could be knowledge, information regarding FOGSI governance, FOGSI policies, rules and regulations. It should act as a true showcase of all the activities that are so enthusiastically undertaken by the talented FOGSI members.
We have had some teething problems as far as the website management is concerned but I know now with the dedication of Dr. Nozer Sheriar and his team and with the support of all the FOGSI members we definitely should be able to create a website which truly will be a source of updated & correct information.
Reaching the Unreached initiative of FOGSI has included standardization, data collection & documentation as its foundation stones towards achieving the unreached goals that we foresee for FOGSI.
At this point of time we already have moved a step forward towards actively using FOGSI website and for dynamic data collection and this has been possible through the first web enabled registry of FOGSI, the National Eclampsia Registry. It will not only accumulate online data in a systematic fashion but will also provide online data analysis acting as an immediate analytic solution to the registry. A simple entry questionnaire has also been placed on the website for each one of the FOGSI member to participate in the Reaching The Unreached program, the action plan that I have floated for this year of my presidency. The member has to just access it, express his wish to participate, chose what he wants to participate in and will immediately receive a response. The cancer registry also will launch shortly to be webenabled registry.
Today technology has taken us with such great strides toward advancement. Information technology has brought everything that man envisaged into a reality. We have to make most of these beautiful media of communication and thereafter my friends, I urge you today to make most of these opportunities that we have been able to provide for ourselves.
It was one of the a stated goals of this FOGSI year that the decade old FOGSI Website be restructured, reenginneered and rejeuvenated to give us a cyberpresence befiting out size and status. That commitment now stands fulfilled with all the others we had made and since achieved. A respectable web presence is expected of all modern organizations in an increasingly connected world and often defines it's intent, purpose, activities and achievements.
FOGSI was a pioneer in the field of scientific journal publication with the Indian Journal Obstetrics and Gynecology. We look forward to the day when the FOGSI Website will establish itself on similar lines both in terms of administrative stucture and internal autonomy and as one of the most widely accessed accessed and read professional organization in existance. I wish the FOGSI Website the very best on behalf of the entire FOGSI membership and assure Dr. Nozer Sheriar and his Website team the fll support, invovement and engagement of our Federation

Diana Wilhold
Youth who first meet Diana are greeted with a smile and "Hello!" followed by questions that get at the heart of what that child believes, wants, or thinks. Many children who are greeted by Diana at first seem disconcert with the empowerment she helps conjure up within them, but eventually the youth smile and their confidence shines through.
Diana has championed for youth-related health issues for many years. I sincerely believe that there is nothing that matters more to Diana than health of, safety, and opportunities for youth. Her dedication can be measured in her ongoing involvement in community-based efforts, immense knowledge of what each community group's priorities are, and her uncanny ability to get things done that so many others believe to be impossible.
Diana is the director of School Outreach and Youth Development for BJC HealthCare. BJC School Outreach and Youth Development was formed in 1991 to help St. Louis Area school districts address high-risk behaviors that may cause long-term harm of young people.

High fuel prices are caused by the high level of fuel tax and increasing crude oil prices, according to a five-month investigation by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT).
The watchdog's report on the UK road fuel sector, published on 30 January, states that the market is not dysfunctional and that competition is robust. It also argues that supermarkets' growing share of the fuel retailing industry has helped consumers by keeping prices low.
RAC Foundation director Professor Stephen Glaister said: "This report will give only limited comfort to the UK's 35 million drivers who continue to pay near record prices at the pumps, but the OFT does identify the true cause of drivers' misery – the Chancellor and crude oil prices. About 60 per cent of the pump price is accounted for by fuel duty and VAT and we would now call on retailers to provide a breakdown on till receipts to show exactly what proportion the Exchequer is creaming off."
The OFT found that, pre-tax, the UK has some of the cheapest fuel prices in Europe. But in the 10 years from 2003 to 2012, prices at the pump increased from 76 pence per litre (ppl) to 136ppl for petrol and from 78ppl to 142ppl for diesel. This was caused largely by an increase of nearly 24ppl in tax and duty, and 33ppl in the cost of crude oil.
While the report acknowledged that the growing dominance of supermarket forecourts had squeezed out thousands of independent operators in recent years, the watchdog said it found no evidence that this had reduced competitiveness.
"The supermarkets' high throughput per forecourt and greater buying power has allowed them to see fuel more cheaply than other competitors," the report states, adding: "In august 2012, for example, the average price of petrol at supermarkets was 2ppl cheaper than the average at oil company owned sites and 4.3ppl cheaper than the average charged by independent dealers."
Professor Glaister said: "Some will find it hard to believe but the report does make clear that the fuel market is helping keep prices lower and supermarkets have actually helped competition. Our analysis, which the OFT relied on, shows that 97 per cent of car-owning households are within 10 miles of a supermarket forecourt."
OFT chief executive Clive Maxwell said: "We recognise that there has been widespread mistrust in how this market is operating. However, our analysis suggests that competition is working well, and rises in pump prices over the past decade or so have largely been down to increases in tax and the cost of crude oil."
The report did highlight the OFT's concern about a lack of pricing information on motorways – and said it would not rule out taking action in some local markets if there is evidence of anticompetitive behaviour.
What's your view on the OFT's report? Do you agree with the findings? And what do you think should be done next? Tell us your thoughts in the comments section below.
No surprise here then! Although a part of me was hoping it was down to collusion etc so the OFT could have an effect. But since its the government who are causing the problem as we all knew, nothing will be done and we'll keep paying George more and more until we're all bankrupt. If we use buses? If we all start cycling? They'll tax them heavily. If we all walk? They'll tax the air we breathe.
Fuel retailers are quick to jack up pump prices with the international oil prices thus charging motorists more for the oil they bought for less. On the other hand pump prices drop rather slowly when the international prices do.
The government IS the main culprit behind the exorbitant fuel prices that we have to pay. If they spent a decent proportion of the money they fleece from us on improving the pot-holed roads you won't find me complaining.
Strange report, since a few months ago the crude prices went well below the ones before christmas, but the petrol price didn't, not just one pump but in most of them. This is isn't the first time also.
I wonder how much the OFT got for this stupid report...
The other factor that appears has been glossed-over is that there are very many international speculators that work together to push up prices. The Government are, however, the biggest culprits as they get more in tax and duty when the pre-tax prices go up and then tell us how decent they are when they postpone duty/tax increases.
The OFT had to do an investigation to work out Tax was the reason petrol/diesel is so expensive? How much are these people being paid.....
Hey, tax is the main component of fuel prices - No Sh*t Sherlock :-)
My view is that this report is wrong but politically the OFT cannot say why prices stay high when oil prices drop.
It's not greed on the part of the oil companies but sound business practice. They know that the minute they drop their prices, Mr Osborne will increase the tax.
In business the only reason to drop your prices is to increase your turnover of goods so that you make the same or greater profit. If you have the certain knowledge that your drop in prices will be met by increased tax your sales will remain low and your profit will fall. If you also know that the cost of your raw materials is likely to rise in future you know that the additional tax will further reduce your turnover and maybe turn a small profit into a loss.
The solution is for the government to promise not to increase fuel duty for the remainder of this parliament.
Why doesn't the government simply put duty up by inflation every April? (2.7% last year). That way they can simply avoid the continuous planned increases and U-turns?
As I expected, just another whitewash report. The OFT have not addressed the reason why prices at the pump soar when there is a rise in the supply market but do not come back down by the same degree when the market falls. As others here have said we did not need this expensive report to tell us that the main problem is the greed of our corrupt government. What is needed in britain today is a public outcry to make these civil servants sit up and listen to the people who put them in power. This government is all about taxing people in everything they do and then if we have any extra cash then the government steps in and imposes cuts on just about everything the working person has.This is no longer "Great Britain" but more like "Greed Britain"
The report is nothing of which we already know. Why is there still a big gap between diesel and unleaded. We need to dig a lot deeper and kick this gov't out asap.

Oooh, congratulations Wabbit, Lendrums are fantastic! I have a friend who just got that wheel.
Make sure your break tension (the turny knob with the fishing line wrapped around it, assuming it has that feature) isn't too tight. I once sat down to help a friend who was struggling to learn to spin, and turned out her break tension was so tight that
spinner could spin on her wheel! It should be just tight enough that the yarn is pulled gently into the flyer. If it's being pulled firmly in, that's way too tight, and your yarn will be far more likely to break and get sucked in.

Man driving tractor trailer killed in Portage County crash
CHARLESTON TWP., Ohio - A man was killed in a two-vehicle crash on State Route 5 in Portage County early Friday morning.
Ohio State Highway Patrol said it is investigating the crash that occurred at 12:53 a.m. They said Patricia Cobb, 49, of Warren, Ohio was driving a 2000 Oldsmobile Silhouette eastbound when she was struck by a 2011 Kenworth tractor trailer going westbound driven by Corey Mullins, age 35, of Glade Spring, Virginia.
Mullin's trailer crossed the center line, striking Cobb's car and then traveled off the south side of the roadway, striking numerous trees before coming to a final rest on its side.
Mullin was pronounced dead as a result of his injuries by the Portage County Coroner's Office.
Cobb was transported to Robinson Memorial Hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
The road is currently closed around the crash area and the estimated time of reopening is unknown. Drivers are advised to use an alternate route.
The crash remains under investigation by the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

FAQ - Fines
If I "lose" a book in my dorm room and find it at the end of the semester, how much will my fines be?
Because it is important that all Warren Wilson College library patrons have full access to information, we need the community to be aware of borrowed materials and to bring them back on time. All students, faculty and staff should return or renew items on or before the due date. If library materials do become overdue, a fee will not be charged for late items, but NO NEW MATERIALS MAY BE CHECKED OUT UNTIL THE PATRON RECORD IS CLEAR. Weekly reminder notices will be sent to all patrons with overdue items. Any books more than 4 weeks overdue will be considered lost and will be charged a lost book fee. Even if a book is returned after being 4 weeks overdue, the patron account will still be charged the lost book fee. Videos not returned after 3 days overdue will also be charged the lost fee. Due to the high demand and quick turnaround of Reserve items, we will continue to charge fines for these materials.
Just as patrons cannot check out materials from our library if they have overdue items or outstanding fines, patrons will not have the privilege of requesting materials through interlibrary loan or of receiving cooperative borrower cards for UNC-Asheville.
For this system to work, patrons are expected to be responsible for the items they have checked out. To ensure that materials are checked out to the correct person and to make the check-out process more efficient, we will require patrons to have their ID card whenever any materials are needed.
If you really lose a library book or if it is damaged, you will be charged a minimum of $55.00.

South African Police Service (SAPS) and Crime Line are calling on members of the public to assist in tracking down the former boyfriend of the missing 27-year-old, Nandi Mbizane.
According to police the 30-year-old Zwelibanzi Kidwell Zungu's was last seen in Vosloorus, Extension 3 on the East Rand.
"We are appealing to the community to help us find him. We believe he can help us in the investigation," said Gauteng police spokesman, Brigadier Neville Malila.
Malila said that Mbizane went missing from her home in Centurion in early March and was last seen in the presence of her former and current boyfriend. Both men were arrested in connection with her disappearance, but were later released.
He said a close friend of Mbizane reported her missing after she failed to answer her phone and when she didn't show up for work. Her flat was found in disarray and police reportedly found blood on the scene.
Malila is urging the public to pass on information regarding his whereabouts to Crime Line's 32211 SMS number or by contacting Crime Stop on 08600 10111.
Head of Crime Line Yusuf Abramjee said that the public need to assist the police to find Zungu.
"He could provide information that may assist in this investigation and ultimately lead to police finding her; he said adding that the family is going through hell not knowing what happened to her or where she is.
"Imagine the pain and anguish of a loved one going missing. Do the right thing and help the police. You can pass on the information anonymously we don't need to know who you are just help us find him", he said.
