March 28, 1981
DULUTH, Minn. -- The Wisconsin Hockey team took full advantage of its at-large berth in the NCAA Hockey Championship and captured the NCAA title for the third time under Head Coach Bob Johnson.
The Badgers downed the CCHA Champs Northern Michigan in the semi-final game 5-1 and then took on the top-ranked team in the country and WCHA title-winner Minnesota. Wisconsin beat Minnesota by a 6-3 count behind the steady goaltending of sophomore Marc Behrend and a total team effort that the Gophers could not match.
Behrend, who was also in the nets against Northern Michigan, was selected as the tournaments Most Valuable Player and along with freshmen center John Newberry, was placed on the all-tournament team. Behrend had a total of 55 saves in the meet, 25 against Northern and 30 against the Gophers. Newberry led the Badgers in scoring with two goals and four assists and tied with Aaron Broten of Minnesota for the scoring leader in the Duluth final four meet.
After a scoreless first period against Northern Michigan, Wisconsin opened up the second stanza with a power-play goal by Ed Lebler at the three-minute mark. A short-handed goal by John Johannson with just two seconds remaining in the period put the Badgers out in front for good. Defenseman Bruce Driver, center Scott Lecy and wing Ted Pearson all tallied third period goals. Northern got their only score after the Badgers had built a 3-0 advantage. The 5-1 victory put Wisconsin in the final game against Minnesota, who had downed Michigan Tech 7-2 in the other semi-final game.
Wisconsin playing on an emotional high never let the Gophers get into their style of play and first period goals by senior Dan Gorowsky, Newberry and Lebler gave the Badgers the confidence they needed. Wisconsin jumped out to a 4-0 margin midway through the second period on a goal by freshman Ted Pearson.
Minnesota cut the advantage to 4-1, but Newberry gave the Badgers their four-point lead back with a power-play goal. Minnesota scored a power-play goal just 10 seconds into the final period to get new life. Another power-play goal at the 16:09 mark cut Wisconsins margin to two goals. Minnesota pulled its goaltender with 1:24 remaining in the game and Lebler hit the open net from just outside his own blue line to ice the victory for the Badgers.
On their way to the 1981 NCAA crown, the Badgers defeated the conference champs of all three Division I leagues, in the NCAA quarter-finals, Wisconsin beat Clarkson 9-8, in a total goal series. Clarkson was the ECAC title holder. Northern Michigan had captured the CCHA title and Minnesota finished first in the WCHA.
The Badgers finished their season with an overall record of 27-14-1, second in the WCHA, tied with Michigan Tech and winners of the 34th NCAA hockey championship.
Scott Lecy led the team in scoring with 75 points (26 goals, 49 assists), while Pete Johnson and John Newberry were the top goal scorers with 30 apiece.

Oklahoma filmmaker Mickey Reece to screen mockumentary 'Country Singer'
Former El Paso Hot Button musician turns to filmmaking in movie "Country Singer," which will be screened at 9 p.m. Saturday at The Opolis in Norman.
Hang around Mickey Reece long enough, and he will have you acting strangely. But that's a filmmaker's job, and few directors in Oklahoma have been as productive as the Newcastle native.
"People don't ask to be in my movies," Reece said in a recent interview. "It's more like, 'Hey you, you're in my movie.'" With that attitude and a tireless work ethic, Reece has made eight feature-length films in the past two years and has recruited local musicians such as Ali Harter, Chris Harris and even his own grandmother for his latest effort, "Country Singer," which will be screened Saturday at the Opolis, 113 N Crawford in Norman. "This is definitely a movie from the guys who watched 'Crazy Heart' and 'Coal Miner's Daughter,'" Reece said. "Country Singer" is a mockumentary in the vein of Christopher Guest films such as "Best in Show" and "A Mighty Wind." It's the fictional story of a demented and determined country musician named Kenny Wayne, who deeply envies the success of his friendly rival, Roy Mason. Reece took a break from his music career as the one-man-band outfit El Paso Hot Button to focus on moviemaking after receiving funding from an Arkansas investor. "Our movies are getting better and better," Reece said. "So, I feel the more (bad) movies you make, eventually you'll make a good one. A lot of people's approach to it is, 'If I can't make it good, then I can't make it at all.'" Although Reece's films don't have talking Great Danes or kids learning karate, he's jumping headfirst into making dialogue-heavy movies and refusing to settle on making short films. "(A lot of moviemakers) are usually too concerned about the technical aspect of (feature-length films)," Reece said.
'Country Singer'
→Featuring: Performances by Ali Harter, Kenny Wayne and Roy Mason.
→When: 9 p.m. Saturday. →Where: The Opolis, 113 N Crawford, Norman. →Admission: $3. →Information: www.starlightmints.com/opolis.html.

I have been looking at fabric at on line stores. I see a lot of fabric I love, but it seems so expensive.
How much do you spend per yard at these fabric stores? Do you ever buy the $25-$50 per yard fabrics? If you do, how to build your confidence to even cut the fabric for your garment?

Everyone has a different budget. If the fabric seems too expensive to you, it probably is expensive. It's important to spend what you are comfortable spending. Some people will say you get what you pay for and while that is true to some extent, if you shop carefully you can find some great deals on quality fabric. The more experience you gain, the easier it will be for you to recognize quality fabric. Just so you know, sometimes you can find the same fabric at so-called discount vendors that might be selling for high prices elsewhere.
You build confidence by doing. The more you sew, the more you will be comfortable cutting into the fabric. Many people make a practice garment out of inexpensive ($1 - $2 per yard) fabric to check fit and practice technique before cutting into their expensive fabric.

As a newer sewer (hey, I'm a fellow Minnesotan too!!); I live by FabricMart sales. Seriously. Sometimes you get something that isn't great but it has been really nice to use such a wide range of fabrics (wool, wool blends, ponte knits, jersey knits, cottons, etc) and I think the most expensive fabric I've ever purchased was around $8/yard. Some (few!) of my garments became unwearable due to fabric choice but I really do wear LOTS of stuff that I've made in the last year (wearing a top and jacket right now).

I live in New Hope, about 8 miles or so from SR Harris. SR Harris is a terrible place . . . for me to go to! I spend so much money there. LOL. I don't mind paying $8-$15 a yard for fabric I can feel and touch. I bought some knits I fell in love with only to go home and find the pattern I was going to use said, "not suitable knits."
I have bought the $25 fabric only once, a linen cotton brocade. I bought 1.5 yards and got a fabulous skirt. I don't think $38 is horribly expensive for what I got. It was a designer fabric:the designer charged $400 for her skirts in the same fabric.

That quilting fabric will be perfect for muslins/toiles. :)
Don't feel guilty. I'm sure the estate was happy to find a buyer for the fabric.
At least they didn't throw it away!
Years ago, on a quilting chat group, a member told a story about visiting a couple she knew who were settling Mom's estate. Mom had a huge stash of quilting and other fabric: boxes and boxes and boxes in the garage and elsewhere, which the wife (who obviously did not quilt or sew and also had no clue) interpreted as dirty "junk" that her silly mother-in-law had collected and she threw it away. She was so happy to get that filthy stuff out of the house.
The writer of the story said that she couldn't bring herself to explain to the woman the value of the fabric, and wished she had gotten there before everything was tossed. (Even at $10 a box, it was worth something).
To this day, I think about that story and it makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck - it's a sewing horror story to me.
Most of my range is $3-6 a yard, and like Mrs Charisma, I do FM sales.
I go upper end to 8-15 a yard... but not often. Most of the time I can find what I want on sale even at those prices, and then the former is the price I pay, so it's a win win for me.
As to $25 a yard fabric..um no. I have a 2 year old and I can buy out of season to get it cheaper.
Garments price averages between $10-$50 depending. Kid's clothes is the same range, but she gets $150+ boutique dresses. DH's are $30-70, but his are $100-300 retail.
Yes, I do buy the more expensive fabric but not all the time. YOu'll notice that I am an advanced sewer and I've been sewing for a long time and I sew well enough to sew good fabric and not be intimidated. That doesn't mean that I buy cheap fabric, but I am picky and would rather buy less than buy poor quality. But I also look for sales from sites that I trust to have high quality. I am on email lists for my favorite sites so I can take advantage of sales. I bought during the end of year sales and bought some beautiful pieces that I wouldn't have bought otherwise. Fabric Mart is a good one to have on email as their sales can be very good. I have bought silks that I've used for linings when I found them deeply discounted. Emmaonesock and Marcy Tilton have special deals every week that are worth checking out. I bought about 10 yards of Marc Jacobs denim from Mood at 50%. Good prices at reputable sites are available. Eliot Berman has very good deals on expensive fabric as well. Gorgeous fabrics has frequent sales too. So look around and get on mailing lists. -- Edited on 1/15/14 7:36 PM --

An online currency convertor can help make sure you get the most for your money and ensure that you have enough money for your trip. Use Moneyextra.com free currency convertor to convert £ Sterling into any currency in the world at the click of a button.
The foreign exchange market is arguably the largest market in the world mainly because unlike many other financial markets the whole world is its trading ground. It operates 24 hours a day to make up for time zones except on weekends and means that it trades trillions of US dollars every day.
The up to date currency converter calculator will give you a very accurate idea of what your cash will be worth when you go away but you should bear in mind that this figure will fluctuate depending on the currency market, which is affected seasonally, and the economic climate of the home country and the country you intend to visit. Also the price you pay for your currency will differ depending on who you purchase you currency from, as each bank will charge different commission.
There are a number of online currency convertors available online including, post office currency convertor; xe currency convertor; universal currency convertor; yahoo currency convertor to name a few. But each works on the same rules.
Currency providers will make profit on currency exchange rates by buying currency for a lesser price that what they are selling it for. For example if the provider is selling euros £1 = €1.15 and they are buying for £1= €1 then the provider has made €0.15 profit on each £1. So if you bring unused cash back home and have no opportunity to use again then you will more than likely sell you currency for less than you bought it for, so using the currency convertor before you go will mean that you can ensure you change just the right amount to ensure you don't lose out when you come home.

PAWTUCKET — The Boys & Girls Club of Pawtucket is embarking on a $6 to $7 million expansion plan for its facility on Moeller Place, thanks to the City Council's approval of a land conveyance request.
On Wednesday, the City Council voted 8 to 0 to approve a resolution to convey about a 9-acre portion of the 20-acre city property adjacent to the Boys & Girls Club's existing facility off School Street to the organization for the sum of one dollar.
On Wednesday, city resident Susan Rivet spoke in opposition to the conveyance plan. She said she had "nothing against the Boys & Girls Club," but felt that with the city's current economic troubles, taking even a portion of the city-owned property off the tax rolls was a bad idea.
She also noted that the waterfront property might one day be valuable for development as a marina or other private enterprise and suggested the city should retain ownership of as much of the land as possible.
However, William Catelli, president of the Boys & Girls Club's Board of Directors, and James Hoyt, Chief Executive Officer, told the council that the club's expansion with a 20,000-square-foot addition to its existing facility will allow for a greater number of the city's youth to be served. They said that since the Boys and Girls Club consolidated several of its separate area facilities in 2004, its teen membership has doubled.
Hoyt added that the 20-acre parcel of land was once a U.S. Naval facility and it was later decommissioned and deeded to the city. Since 1972, the club had formerly used a Quonset hut on the property for its children's programs and had a 99-year "use agreement" that extends through 2086 for the site. He added that the Boys & Girls Club maintains the ballfields on the 20-acre wooded site and also allows for other public use of the property, and that the city itself still retains use rights.
Hoyt told the council that a task force had been looking into expansion plans for the club and had concluded that the best option was for the club to stay at its existing facility, which was originally built for $4.5 million. He said the expansion project will add a room that will be used as a teen center.
Hoyt further told the council that the club was seeking the conveyance for the approximate 9 acres of property because it would look better to have ownership of the site as club officials seek financing for the project.

The Nationals' No. 2 prospect suffered a badly sprained left ankle while running the bases for Class A Advanced Potomac on Saturday night. According to the Washington Post, the swelling must go down before the team will learn how long Rendon will be sidelined.
Rendon went down while rounding third base in the fourth inning of a 7-2 loss to the Lynchburg Hillcats. He had to be helped off the field by team staff.
After walking in his first at-bat, Rendon led off the fourth with a double to center field. Two batters later, Justin Bloxom lined a single to center and Rendon was trying to score when the injury occurred.
Winner of the Dick Howser Trophy as college baseball's top player during his sophomore season at Rice University, Rendon was considered the likely No. 1 overall pick in 2011 before a right shoulder injury interrupted his junior year. After hitting .394 with 26 homers in 2010, he batted .327 with only six longballs last season. He also was largely limited to designated hitter duty as a junior after playing stellar defense at third base the year before.
Rendon previously had issues with his right ankle. He tore ligaments in 2009, then suffered multiple fractures in the ankle and foot the following year.
The 21-year-old ended up going sixth overall to the Nationals in the 2011 Draft. In his pro debut on Friday, he went 1-for-3 with a triple, a walk and a run scored.

In Get Even, Players Can Become Your Enemies
It looks like the Polish developer The Farm 51 has been very active lately. After shipping Deadfall Adventures, they are working on a new game titled Get Even and currently scheduled for a 2015 release on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
The game seems a first person shooter with quite a few interesting twists. First of all, as mentioned in the title, players can join your single player campaign and impersonate your usual AI enemies:
GET EVEN also strives to offer a fresh approach to game mechanics. The developers plan to remove the arbitrary barrier between single and multiplayer modes by linking them together in a unique way. In the singleplayer campaign, other players will be able to join the game at any moment to take on the roles of enemies previously controlled by the AI. Thanks to this, the singleplayer campaign, often schematic and predictable in other games, enters a new dimension where the player has to face the most dangerous of all foes: another player who has his own reasons and tools to stop you from reaching your goal.
That's not all, as the developer promises choices and even the opportunity to experience the game from the perspective of both the main opposing characters.
The approach to storytelling in GET EVEN also strives for innovation. The player is given the chance to experience the events that transpire in the singleplayer campaign from the perspective of two opposing protagonists. What is more, gameplay will differ based upon the choice of a side and the story of the game will be told through elements of gameplay, exploration, and interacting with the environment rather than the standard usage of cutscenes and dialogues.
The Farm 51 has a high-end approach to graphics as well, using 3D scanning technology.
The graphics of GET EVEN are achieved by using 3D scans of real locations and people. To develop this innovative technology, our studio works with research institutes and independent specialists. This will mark the first time where this technology is used on such a scale in video games. The technology present in GET EVEN by The Farm 51 has been first presented to the audiences during the French Game Connection where it has been well-received.
We'll try to find out more about Get Even, so stay tuned here at Worlds Factory.

Daniel Brühl - or Daniel César Martin Brühl Gonzáles Domingo, to give him his full name - was born in Barcelona and raised in Germany. He began his acting career in 1995 in the German soap opera Forbidden Love. After gaining critical acclaim for his role in the 2003 German film Goodbye, Lenin he attracted international attention in 2009 playing a German war hero in Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds.
This month he is generating even bigger buzz in Ron Howard's fuel-injected biopic Rush playing '70s Formula 1 star Niki Lauda, arch rival to British playboy James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth). It's a performance that has already prompted whispers of the O-word.
Brühl spoke to Empire at the Zurich Film Festival about his relationship with Lauda and the challenges and rewards of playing a man so single-mindedly dedicated to his sport that not even a horrifying crash that left him permanently disfigured could keep him away from the track for long.

Premier League transfer news: Arsenal set to offer Columbia captain and free agent Mario Yepes a one-year deal
Posted: September 05, 2014|
Veteran central defender Mario Yepes could be heading for a surprise switch to Arsenal.
The Columbia skipper, 38, is a free agent after leaving Atalanta at the end of last season and the Express says Arsene Wenger is ready to offer him a short-term deal as back-up to Per Mertesacker, Laurent Koscielny and new boy Calum Chambers.
Wenger missed out on Olympiakos' Kostas Manolas, who went to Roma, in his hunt for a replacement for Thomas Vermaelen.
His activity on transfer deadline day was limited to a late move for unwanted Manchester United forward Danny Welbeck.

The Rev. Dan Madigan recalls longtime devotion to local parishes
After nearly a half-century of serving the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sacramento, Dan Madigan, as noted in the previous article of this series was celebrated for his longtime devotion to the ministry, on Sunday, June 29. He officially retired the following day.
During his recent, exclusive interview with this publication, Madigan, 76, shared details about various experiences in his life.
Among those experiences, he noted, was serving as assistant pastor of the Sacred Heart Parish.
"I got promoted (from Our Lady of Lourdes Parish) – well, I feel it was a promotion over to Sacred Heart over at 39th and J (streets in East Sacramento)," Madigan said. "Governor (Ronald) Reagan was up the road there at that time, so it was totally, completely different (then at Our Lady of Lourdes). When I came from Ireland and went into Our Lady of Lourdes, I thought, 'Well, that's the United States.' But (at) Sacred Heart, I didn't feel as needed there, but the people are very nice there."
In 1976, Madigan became the pastor of the Immaculate Conception Parish.
And in discussing his service with that parish, Madigan said, "Immaculate Conception came up as a pastor. I applied and got it, and I started the (Sacramento) Food Bank. These people came through very, very well. When I started the food bank, I started going out to other churches and making appeals, because we had to get some money to get going and get the thing off the ground. Those were wonderful years."
In many ways, Madigan became synonymous with the St. Joseph Church of Clarksburg. And his longevity in that position alone certainly draws one's attention.
Madigan, who began serving as St. Joseph's pastor in 1989, explained that during his time as pastor of that parish, he gained a knowledge and appreciation for the history of the area.
"I knew very little about the background of this beautiful parish church, or even the Delta in which it sits," Madigan said. "Neither did I know about the great number of Portuguese people who once lived on both sides of the Sacramento River, namely in the Pocket district, Freeport and also on the Yolo side of the river.
Additionally, Madigan spoke about the longtime Portuguese connection to St. Joseph Church.
"On learning the (the parish's original, wooden) church was built by Portuguese immigrants, I immediately assumed all these folks came from Portugual," Madigan said. "How wrong I was. Hearing about the Azores Islands, I decided to do some research. My quest led me down some beautiful pathways, discovering as I went, a people I have certainly fallen in love with. Their grit, their religious beliefs, their quiet and noble characters, coupled with their willingness to embrace the grueling work necessary to improve life for their families, made them my true heroes."
The history of St. Joseph Church dates back to October 1892, when John Soto donated the Yolo County land for the sole purpose of building a Catholic church for the Portuguese farming community.
The baptismal book at St. Joseph Church reveals that between the years of 1893 to 1951, 591 Portuguese children were baptized at that church.
Madigan, continued his work as the director of the Sacramento Food Bank until December 2007.
He had opted to spend more time with the people of the growing St. Joseph Parish and to continuing to discover ways that he could help those in need.
Two years prior to leaving the food bank, Madigan established the St. Joseph's Mobile Mall, which distributes household goods and clothing to many sites in south Sacramento.
And in 2012, Madigan founded the Mobile Food Locker ministry, which distributes food on a weekly basis to those in need at St. Anne Catholic Church at 7724 24th St., St. Paul Catholic Church at 8720 Florin Road, St. Anthony's Catholic Church at 14012 Walnut Ave. in Walnut Grove and Bishop Gallegos Maternity Home at 6423 Lang Ave. in south Sacramento.
Those who know Madigan well know that his love of animals did not end with his dog, Brutis, who was referred to in the initial article of this series.
Madigan also grew up around donkeys and has had various other animals during his life, including his Great Danes, Seamus, Molly and Nellie.
Madigan said that he has retired to another residence in Clarksburg with the last survivor of those dogs, Nellie.
In explaining his decision to retire, Madigan said, "I'm certainly of the age – 76. Most priests retire at 70 and even some retire at 65. So, the next one would be 75, and I even went an extra year. I had contemplated maybe spending another couple of years (as St. Joseph's pastor), but I am the youngest of the family in Ireland, so I have four brothers in Ireland and a sister and they're all moving on in life. They're 84 to 90 years of age. That's definitely something I gave a lot of thought to, and I feel that they're getting frail and so forth and I should be available to go back and see them. So, that was definitely a big factor."
And after being asked how often he plans to return to Ireland, Madigan said, "When necessary."
Madigan also said at the time of his interview for this series that he was planning to depart for a month-long trip to Ireland on July 16.
In addition to taking occasional trips to Ireland, Madigan has planned to utilize his retirement years to work on his writings.
Madigan, whose education includes earning a master's degree in social work at Sacramento State University in 1976 and a doctorate's degree in philosophy from the Union Institute & University of Cincinnati in 1979, is presently working on a book.
Despite his retirement, Madigan said that he will be available to assist any priest in need.
"I'll always be willing to help out if some priest wants a little help here and there," Madigan said. "It's just that I'm not tied down to the commitment to work."

Vikings by position: Lot of resources in o-line, but guard a concern
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
Editor's note: Each day until the NFL Draft begins on Thursday night, Tom Pelissero is breaking down the Minnesota Vikings' roster by position, based on observations of games and practice, tape studies and interviews with NFL coaches and scouts.
Day 5
Offensive linemen.
On the roster (11)
Joe Berger, Brandon Fusco, Tyler Holmes, Charlie Johnson, Matt Kalil, Troy Kropog, Phil Loadholt, DeMarcus Love, Kevin Murphy, Seth Olsen, John Sullivan.
Departures (1)
Geoff Schwartz (signed with Kansas City).
Kalil (6-foot-7, 295 pounds) and Loadholt (6-8, 343) are locked in as the tackles for the long haul, the former a Pro Bowl selection as a rookie and the latter signed to a four-year, $25 million contract last month. Sullivan (6-4, 301) appears over his early-career injury issues and continues to ascend among the NFL's top centers. The question marks are at guard, where the Vikings moved on from longtime starters Steve Hutchinson and Anthony Herrera a year ago and still can't be certain they've found their successors. Johnson (6-4, 305) slid inside after Kalil's arrival and fared better at left guard. But he agreed to renegotiate the last non-voidable year of his contract last month -- a nod to the reality $4.35 million is too much to pay for average performance at the position. (He's now scheduled to make $3.25 million.) Coach Leslie Frazier said at the NFL meetings that Fusco (6-4, 306) enters the offseason as the "named starter" at right guard despite showing in 2012 how raw he remains. He'll face competition in camp -- though perhaps not from anyone on the current roster. Berger (6-5, 315) got a $65,000 signing bonus on his minimum salary benefit deal and remains a valuable multiple-position backup. Olsen (6-5, 312) signed for $20,000 after not receiving a restricted tender in Indianapolis, where he started five games over two seasons. Kropog (6-6, 308) might have the best shot to get on the field, considering the Vikings quietly gave him a raise on the practice squad in November to make sure he didn't depart before they could put him on the 53-man roster. But he has appeared in only seven NFL games (all in Tennessee) since the Titans drafted him in the fourth round out of Tulane in 2009. Perhaps he battles for Schwartz's old swing tackle job against Love (6-4, 315), who was inactive throughout his rookie season in 2011 and missed last year with a torn pectoral muscle that required surgery. Murphy (6-7, 295) has the feet for left tackle and should benefit from the offseason strength program that begins on Monday. Ditto Holmes (6-4, 312), who bounced on and off the practice squad as a rookie.
Draft outlook
The Vikings have a lot of resources invested in the offensive line and greater needs elsewhere. Also, it's worth remembering Fusco is only two years removed from being a center at Division II Slippery Rock. He was always going to be a project. That said, the Vikings figure to target another guard -- maybe even as early as Round 1, depending on whether they believe an athlete such as Oregon's Kyle Long could be a difference-marker. More likely, they'll address that sometime between Rounds 2 and 5, unless they're convinced their relatively untested depth is sufficient insurance. That Johnson may be gone after the season only raises the urgency to accumulate options.
Last 10 drafts
• 2012: Kalil (first round, fourth overall).
• 2011: Fusco (sixth, 172nd).
• 2010: Chris DeGeare (fifth, 161st).
• 2009: Loadholt (second, 54th).
• 2008: Sullivan (sixth, 187th).
• 2007: None.
• 2006: Ryan Cook (second, 51st).
• 2005: Marcus Johnson (second, 49th).
• 2004: Nat Dorsey (fourth, 115th).
• 2003: None.

Potala Palace in holy Lhasa is a splendid and complicated building complex on the Red Hill, being the palace of Dalai Lamas and political center of Tibet in the China Tourist Attraction.
Nature Scenery
Mountains and waters often occur in literary works to express great breadth of mind or yearning for nature. They usually hold more than what their facial beauty can convey.
Tourist Attractions in China and a mountain has its unique character - magnificent, imposing or elegant. The Five Most Famous Mountains can be the representative of all mountains in China. Mount Taishan in Shandong is the most revered; Shaolin Temple brought worldwide fame to the Song Mountain in Henan; Mt Huashan in Shaanxi is precipitous; Hengshan in Shanxi has jagged ranges and Mt. Hengshan in Hunan is elegant in appearance in the Chinese Tourist Attractions.

Jokhang Temple, Labrang Monastery and Ta'er Monastery are famous Tibetan Buddhist shrines. As to Confucianism, there are several Temples of Confucius (Kong Miao) in many cities.

Rahm Emanuel took a lot of heat for that statement because some people didn't like the policies the Obama administration tried to use the crisis to implement, but it's absolutely dead on. We know there have been all sorts of things in our state and local governments that have needed to be addressed for years. But special interests and politics have kept us from doing a lot of them. Now that we're facing fiscal Armageddon at the state and local level a lot of previously unthinkable things have gotten, well, a lot more thinkable.
This is the opportunity and imperative that are before us. The cities and states that step up and take this opportunity for reform are the ones that will put themselves at a competitive advantage for the long term. Those who simply try to muddle through may end up wandering in the wilderness longer than they think. It's not just about jobs and balancing budgets in the here and now. It's about setting the stage for the future.
That to me is the disappointing thing about the Illinois income tax increase. Rhetoric aside, even the business community there realizes that a tax increase had to be part of the equation for the righting the fiscal ship. The structural problems are so vast – a $15 billion structural deficit in the state's budget and a $160 billion unfunded long term pension liability – that there's no way to bring things back in balance through cuts alone. But the cuts and reforms have to be made anyway, and the state didn't make them. In fairness, it did change pension rules for future hires, and did some minor tweaks to things like free rides for seniors, but this is no where close to what is needed. Now that the tax rate was increased as a first option, reform just got a lot more difficult.
It all starts with pensions. This is the root of the fiscal mess in many places. Defined benefit pensions are indefensible in an era of such long life spans, and when future medical technology means it is physically impossible to predict how long people might live. Also, the notion that you spend your entire career with one employer, even a government one, is an anachronism. Today, once you've got X number of years in, you are almost handcuffed to your government job for the duration even if you hate it because the value of that pension is so high. That's why you always face a battalion of surly employees when you go to renew your driver's license. Also, it creates a recruitment issue. Lots of people might want to spend some time in public service without making it a career, but it can be hard to do. In many places (though by no means everywhere), government pay is below market on a cash basis, with the balance made up (often more than made up) by generous pensions. So for someone who might want to spend say 3-7 years in government, that's a huge disincentive. They would be paid below market and not get the pension. If they were paid market and had a 401(k) they could take with them, that's a lot more attractive option. So this reform is critical to recruiting the skills we need in public service from the marketplace. Also, the scenario I described right now is why elected officials simply can't be trusted to manage pensions for the long term. They are able to both pay less in cash now and make big promises to employees that someone else will have to deal with down the line. And even if pension reform gets implemented, it is way too easy to retroactively sweeten the pot down the road. Only a defined contribution plan enforces real truth in budgeting and real funding of the liabilities.
Alas, few places seem likely to really go this route. Even Indiana isn't looking at it, despite their huge unfunded pension liability and a reform minded governor. It would likely mean a politically unpalatable raising of the bare bones public sector pay there. But the places that are able to do this will reap an enormous gain over the long term, both fiscally, and from a government talent management perspective.
Beyond that, there are a whole host of other areas where reform can be put through. Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, for example, unveiled an ambitious reform agenda in his state of the state address. Among these:
- Local government restructuring/mergers. This includes completely eliminating over 1,000 township units of government. I don't think merging general purpose governments saves money – arguably the opposite. But lots of states have tons of special purpose entities like Indiana townships. These are often cesspools of cronyism (in Indiana's case rampant nepotism) and maladministration. There's enormous opportunity here. For example, Brookings laid out a number of consolidation proposals in their report on restoring prosperity in Ohio.
- Criminal Justice Reform. It's no secret that we vastly over-incarcerate people in US. Indiana also has a criminal justice revamp on the table that would see many non-violent drug offenders sentenced to treatment instead of prison, among other reforms. This would incidentally save a billion too. In a world where no politicians ever lost votes by being "tough on crime", it's a amazing that the sheer cost of incarceration is forcing many states to reconsider their approach to sentencing.
- Education Reform. Possibly nothing is more important to our long term competitiveness than education. Daniels proposals are of the conservative variety so many folks won't agree with them. But increasingly education is no longer a Democrat/Republican issue and there are a variety of serious proposals from across the political spectrum looking to address the issue of education.
These initiative all face headwinds. In particular, townships may survive because the political class sees township organizations as their "farm team." But at least Daniels is pushing hard. Even if you don't agree with what he's doing, he's at least trying. And he's not the only one. Jerry Brown is already making people mad with his proposals such as eliminating local redevelopment authorities in California. Andrew Cuomo in New York is starting to talk about new ways of doing business in Albany. Again, there's no guarantee of success – Ed Rendell failed in his quest to lease the Pennsylvania Turnpike, for example – but at least these places are swinging the bat.
That's the key. Every state and local government needs to be taking advantage of this (hopefully) once in a lifetime opportunity caused by the fiscal meltdown to pursue and implement reforms with a long term benefit. This includes of course creating fiscal sustainability, but also positioning them economically and from a service delivery standpoint. The places that pull it off will be among the ones to watch in the future.

Is it wise, as an SA, to ask a named partner to be a reference for future employers? He has the best knowledge of my work. I believe the firm would like to keep me next summer, so it's a seemingly delicate subject.

Does it mean anything when a firm you've applied to asks for a transcript, or has my desperation driven me nuts?
I've heard from an attorney who used to do interviewing that sometimes the recruiting administrator simply needs all materials required by the firm before the candidate is considered, regardless of his qualifications.
Then again, they might be interested.

Law School Applications / Re: Should I go to law school?« on: January 05, 2008, 03:00:43 PM »
If your numbers are good enough to get significant scholarships at T14s, and you think a JD may further your career, I would recommend going -- particularly so since I assume you won't be losing a lot of money by not working, since you aren't presently working in a lucrative field.
I, for one, am enjoying law school and am very glad I made the choice to go. I did not want to find myself regretting not going 10 years down the road, when it would be much more difficult to go due to increased responsibilities.
