text: endangered species Wyoming's Grizzly Delisting Efforts Continue To Move Forward By Bob Beck • Aug 12, 2016 Carol S. Bock The Wyoming Game and Fish Department continues to put the finishing touches on the plan for how Wyoming will manage the grizzly bear. This week Game and Fish Commissioners voted to approve a three state agreement concerning how Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana would manage grizzlies when they come off the endangered species list. Wyoming Game and Fish Chief Game Warden Brian Nesvik joins us to provide an update on where those delisting efforts stand. On The Brink Of Extinction, Hundreds Of Wyoming Toads Set Free In Laramie Basin By Melodie Edwards • Jun 17, 2016 Melodie Edwards On the shore next to the Buford Ranch pond in early June, clear plastic tubs sit in stacks with little ordinary-looking, brown speckled toads visible inside climbing the walls, trying to escape. And escape is exactly what a crowd of people—private landowners, environmental groups and federal and state agencies—have all gathered here today to help the toads do. 900 Wyoming Toads To Be Released Into Wilds Of Laramie Basin By Melodie Edwards • May 31, 2016 Wikipedia Creative Commons With only a few hundred in existence, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service plans to release over 900 adult Wyoming toads onto land west of Laramie on Wednesday. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Recovery Coordinator Doug Keinath says there's a lot riding on the release because of how rare this toad is. "It's extremely rare. It's considered one of the most endangered amphibians in North America, if not the most endangered amphibian in North America. It only occurs within the Laramie Basin. So within 30 miles or so of Laramie is the entire global range of the Wyoming Toad." U.S. Fish And Wildlife Cease Dell Creek Wolf Pack Kill By Melodie Edwards • May 20, 2016 Melodie Edwards Everywhere you look on the McNeil elk feed ground west of Bondurant, you see the bones and hides of dead elk. Rancher Steve Robertson says many are left behind from wolf kills. He tells of seeing elk chased by wolves here just this last winter. "The steams boiling off them, their tongues are hanging out," he says. "And then two weeks later all those elk were killed on the feed ground. And the elk, they can't go anywhere they're snowed in, they're trapped." Wolverines...An Ice Age Animal In A Warming Era By Melodie Edwards • Apr 15, 2016 Wyoming Game and Fish It's true, we got a late start, the snow turning to mush in the warm sun under our snowmobile tread as we head out mid-morning. I'm tagging along with Wyoming Game and Fish Wolverine Biologist Lee Tafelmeyer into the south end of the Wind River Range to take down a motion-sensored camera he's been baiting with roadkill deer and beaver carcasses in an effort to take photos of wolverines. It's all part of a multi-state project to count this elusive species in the West. Last year, they took 53 photos of an estimated five animals. Black-Footed Ferrets Are Hoping To Make A Historic Comeback By Penny Preston • Apr 15, 2016 J. Michael Lockhart / USFWS Wyoming's Game and Fish Department and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are planning a historic venture this summer. They hope to bring black-footed ferrets back to Meeteetse, where they were found 35 years ago when the species was thought to be extinct. Black-footed ferrets were thought to be extinct in 1981 when John Hogg's dog brought a dead one to his ranch house near Meeteetse. Hogg has since passed away. But, on the 25th anniversary of the ferret's discovery near Meeteetse, Hogg told the story, again. Wyoming Authors Look At Accuracy Of Classic Children's Book On Grizzlies By Melodie Edwards • Apr 8, 2016 Ernest Thompson Seton Last month, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced they were moving forward with de-listing Yellowstone area grizzly bears from the Endangered Species List. The news raised the hackles of many wildlife advocates. Yellowstone Grizzlies Coming Out Of Hibernation By Caroline Ballard • Mar 7, 2016 commons.wikimedia.org As spring approaches, Yellowstone National Park's grizzly bear population is starting to wake up. The first grizzly was spotted out of hibernation February 22nd. Amy Bartlett is a spokeswoman for Yellowstone National Park. She says the bears are coming out of hibernation on schedule, even though it still feels like winter. Humane Society Says Grizzly Hunt Would Be Unethical By Melodie Edwards • Mar 3, 2016 commons.wikimedia.org The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service today announced its proposal to remove the Yellowstone area grizzly bear from the endangered species list. In his announcement, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Director Dan Ashe called the plan a triumph. "This population of bears has increased by more than 500% since efforts to conserve the bear began in 1981 from as few as 136 bears to probably over 1000 today." USFWS Proposes Delisting Yellowstone Grizzly By Penny Preston • Mar 3, 2016 nps.gov Wyoming experts were cautiously optimistic Thursday when they learned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing that Yellowstone Grizzly Bears be removed from the endangered species list. Grizzly bears were listed for decades, before they were removed from the list in 2007. A judge put them back under federal protection in 2009. Now, just as grizzly bears are starting to emerge from their dens, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says it's recommending delisting again. Another Expert Says It's Time To Delist Grizzlies By Bob Beck • Jan 26, 2016 Yellowstone's expert on grizzly bears says it's time to delist them. Bear Management biologist Kerry Gunther edited the recent Yellowstone Science magazine dedicated to grizzly bear recovery. "Where are the grizzly bears" is one of the most frequently asked questions at Yellowstone Park Entrances. That question often gets answered now. Yellowstone Bear Management Specialist Kerry Gunther said in the early eighties it was rare to see any bear in the Park. But things have changed. Draft Of Management Plans For Delisted Grizzlies Causes Concern Among Animal Rights Groups By Caroline Ballard • Jan 7, 2016 National Digital Library of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service A draft of a tri-state grizzly management and hunting practices agreement between Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming has been making the rounds on media sites, prompting outcry from some animal rights groups. The memorandum plans for a possible delisting of the grizzly bear from the endangered species list by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It sets population goals, target mortality rates, and, most controversial, percentages of the management area outside the national parks that could possibly be used for hunting grizzlies. 58 percent of the hunt would occur in Wyoming. Wyoming Designated Special Area For Black-Footed Ferret Recovery By Caroline Ballard • Oct 30, 2015 J. Michael Lockhart / USFWS A new rule that will make it easier to restore black-footed ferret populations. The 10(j) rule lets private landowners open up their lands to reintroduction in return for looser restrictions. Under the rule, if a landowner accidentally harms or kills a ferret, he or she will not be prosecuted under the Endangered Species Act. U.S. Fish and Wildlife spokesman Ryan Moehring, says his agency partnered with Wyoming officials to develop the rule. Debate Over De-listing Grizzlies Heats Up By Penny Preston • Oct 16, 2015 Wikimedia Commons Cody area lawmakers want the federal government to take grizzly bears off the endangered species list. They say there are more bears than ever outside Yellowstone. But others say the numbers don't matter, and that the grizzly should remain protected. Many Cody area residents have advocated for grizzly delisting for years. But, talk about delisting intensified this summer, after a grizzly killed a hiker in Yellowstone. Wyoming's Sage Grouse Hunt Remains Safe For Now By Bob Beck • Sep 25, 2015 Bob Beck Last weekend Wyoming's annual sage grouse hunt began. Many hunters were worried that this could be the last hunt in a while, since the bird was facing the possibility of getting listed as an endangered species. When the chicken-sized bird started seeing declines in the 1990's, some states stopped sage grouse hunting altogether. Wyoming continued its hunt after changing the start date and limiting the take. That will continue, even as the state continues mandated conservation efforts. The Pros And Cons Of Not Listing The Greater Sage Grouse By Melodie Edwards • Sep 25, 2015 Melodie Edwards You might have heard a strange sound this last Tuesday morning around 10 a.m. It was a sigh of relief from ranchers, oil and gas workers and miners all over the West at the announcement that the greater sage grouse won't be listed as an endangered species. But you probably also heard the slapping of foreheads from wildlife advocates who say the grouse needs full federal protections if it's going to survive. Feds Credit Wyoming With Sage Grouse Recovery Plan By Melodie Edwards • Sep 23, 2015 In Tuesday's announcement that the greater sage grouse will not be listed as an endangered species, the state of Wyoming got a lot of the credit by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Director Dan Ashe who said the state's strategy for bringing the bird back from the brink showed long range vision. "I have to point out singularly the leadership from the state of Wyoming in designing the Core Area Strategy back in 2008. Because it was Wyoming's leadership that showed us what was possible for sage grouse conservation." Wyoming Ranchers Happy With Grouse Listing Decision By Caroline Ballard • Sep 22, 2015 Ladder Ranch Wyoming Ranchers are among those who are pleased with the U.S. Department of the Interior's decision not to list the Greater Sage Grouse as an endangered species. Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell said in her announcement that one of the main reasons the bird wasn't listed was the cooperation among individuals, industry, and government in conservation efforts. Pat O'toole runs the Ladder Ranch in Savery, Wyoming. He says his ranch took several steps to help Sage Grouse – from putting land in conservation easements to creating more sage brush habitat. New Report Critiques Sage Grouse Priority Area Model By Melodie Edwards • Sep 22, 2015 Wikimedia Commons With the decision not to list sage grouse as an endangered species, a new federal report says the current approach is effectively isolating the birds from each other like animals in a zoo. U.S. Geological Survey ecologist Steven Knick worked on the report, and he says many of the sage grouse protected areas are like small islands scattered around the 11 Western states of its range. What do you think about the decision to keep the sage grouse off the endangered species list?

The Modern West #4: The Good, The Bad, And The Endangered By Wyoming Public Media • Sep 14, 2015 Jeannie Stafford / USFWS Wyoming's human population is low—and its animal population is high. But that doesn't mean they don't clash. This month: endangered species in The Modern West. Conversations Around Sage Grouse Pick Up Ahead Of Listing Decision By Caroline Ballard • Aug 12, 2015 Governor Matt Mead released his plan for Sage Grouse conservation in Wyoming earlier this month, but September's federal deadline to decide on endangered species listing is rapidly approaching. Scientists across the west are now engaged in a discussion of whether or not states are doing enough to adequately protect the bird's numbers. An upcoming panel at the University of Wyoming will attempt to address some of those issues. Endangered Black-Footed Ferrets Have A Chance At A Comeback By Micah Schweizer • Aug 10, 2015 From Cecil To Sage Grouse: How Social Media Impacts Perceptions Of Poaching By Caroline Ballard • Jul 31, 2015 Wikimedia Commons Cecil the lion was a favorite and well-known animal in the Zimbabwe Hwange National Park. Earlier this month he was killed by an American hunter and once the internet found out, it wanted justice. Now, a debate is raging on social media over big-game trophy hunting – both illegal and legal. Wyoming doesn't have African Lions, but it does have mountain lions, elk, moose, bears, and a good number of big-game hunters. Renny MacKay is communications director for Wyoming Game and Fish. Hibernation No Salvation For Polar Bears, UW Study Shows By Stephanie Joyce • Jul 31, 2015 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Polar bears are one of the species that's been hardest hit by climate change. But scientists have long thought the bears might be capable of effectively hibernating in summer, to save energy during a longer open water season. New research from the University of Wyoming disproves that hypothesis though. Merav Ben David is a professor of wildlife ecology and one of the authors of the new study. She told Wyoming Public Radio's Stephanie Joyce that without hibernation, it's an increasingly long and hungry summer for the bears. Preserving Wyoming's Lesser Known Inhabitants By Cordelia Zars • Jul 20, 2015 Grizzly Expert To Speak In Jackson On Yellowstone's Unique Bears By Melodie Edwards • Jul 14, 2015 commons.wikimedia.org Yellowstone's grizzlies are unique in the world of bears. That's according to a grizzly expert scheduled to speak in Jackson this week. Yale wildlife biologist Dave Mattson spent 13 years in the field studying Yellowstone grizzlies. He says Yellowstone bears eat things like earthworms, pond weeds and pine seeds that no other grizzlies in the world do. And that's not all. Plague Vaccine Could Bring Black Footed Ferrets Back To Meeteetse By Penny Preston • Jul 10, 2015 Commons A plague vaccine might help bring one of the most endangered mammals in North America back to Northwest Wyoming where they were discovered. Black Footed Ferrets may be restored to the Pitchfork Ranch near Meeteetse, because their food, prairie dogs, are coming back. Pinedale High Schoolers Discover Their Local Sage Grouse's Days Are Numbered By Melodie Edwards • Jun 19, 2015 Ben Ramsey In the small town of Pinedale, people have a lot of opinions about sage grouse. That's because Pinedale just happens to sit in the middle of some of the best sage grouse habitat in the state. It's also in the middle of some of the best oil and gas fields in the country. So when a Pinedale math teacher joined forces with a sage grouse conservation project, it started a community conversation. WyoFile Reporter Says State's Sage Grouse Plan Must Prove Its Adaptability By Melodie Edwards • May 1, 2015 Department Of Wildlife It's been five years since Governor Matt Mead signed an executive order giving special protections to the state's greater sage grouse populations. Now that order says it's time to re-evaluate the plan and make sure it's actually doing its job. The goal is to convince the U.S. Fish and Wildlife not to list the grouse as an endangered species come September 30. Pages1 2 next › last »

Things are just not shaking loose on westbound Hwy. 36. One driver says 45 minutes from Edgerton to 35W. The drive on southbound 35W is 15 minutes from Hwy. 280 to Hennepin Avenue. Blame the delay on an earlier crash at Hennepin.
Now there is word of a new wreck on the right shoulder at Hiawatha Avenue.
On westbound 494, look for crowded conditions from Cedar Avenue to Hwy. 100. A crash at Nicollet Avenue has cleared. Give yourself 15 mintes from Cedar to Hwy. 100.
It's not horrible, but there is some slow pockets of traffic on eastbound 394 from Hwy. 169 to Dunwoody Blvd.
Look for a line on southbound 94 entering the Lowry Hill Tunnel. A wreck at 1st Avenue has cleared, but it's still packed from Broadway to Nicollet.

I've searched some for this answer but haven't been able to find anything.
I know AF-D effects 3D Matrix Metering and Flash Exposure, but do the D lenses contribute to the 3D Focus Tracking at all? I don't use too much flash, and I can handle exposure compensation, but am wondering about the ability to use the D7000's focus system to its maximum potential.

Lakers 103, Trail Blazers 96
Who should get the next statue outside Staples Center, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Ramon Sessions?
Who should have his jersey number retired next, Shaquille O'Neal or Ramon Sessions?
The turnaround for the plodding, grinding Lakers offense continued Friday night in Sessions' first start as the Lakers' point guard. Behind Sessions' 20 points, 11 assists and five rebounds, they defeated the Portland Trail Blazers, 103-96.
The Lakers piled up a season-high 33 assists as a team -- in a game in which Kobe Bryant missed all 11 shots he took in the game's final three quarters. Center Andrew Bynum continued to power the Lakers' offense with 28 points even though he was regularly double- and triple-teamed by a Portland defense that had its best luck throwing a zone at the Lakers in the second quarter.
Sessions was at the controls, though, and made it happen when it counted most. He had 13 of his points and nine of his assists in the second half, when Lakers coach Mike Brown rested Sessions only two minutes.
He also helped give the Lakers' offense some unpredictability after it so often has been Bryant banging his head against the perimeter defense's wall late in games. The Lakers never trailed Friday night, even with Portland All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge pouring in 29 points on 12-of-18 shooting.
"Now everybody might think I'm an offensive coach, I don't know," joked Brown, known foremost for his defense.
Bryant was hot early, making 5 of 6 field-goal attempts in the first quarter. Then he missed all 10 shots he put up in the second and third quarters, getting blanketed often by Portland's long-armed Nicolas Batum. By the time Bryant came back for his final run in the fourth, Sessions had established a nice tempo that didn't need to be disrupted by Bryant's individual forays. Bryant finished with 18 points.
The Lakers were just 2-2 with Steve Blake starting while Sessions learned the Lakers' systems. Brown made what he called "a gut decision" to move Sessions in with the starters even though he had sped up the pace of the second unit's scoring so well. He had a similar effect on the first unit, which jumped out to a 30-19 lead after one quarter.
"Just his presence alone has helped everybody out," Brown said about Sessions, who enables the Lakers to create offense out of basic middle pick-and-rolls and poses a threat with his speed to keep defenders honest.

The 2013 NBA Draft is rapidly approaching which means news is flying out on who is going at what spot come this Thursday night. As for the San Antonio Spurs, they have pick No. 28 and according to NBADraft.net, they might have made a promise to senior guard Erick Green of Virginia Tech. Sources have indicated Spurs may have a promise with Erick Green at 28. #draftrumor — NBADraft.net (@nbadraftnet) June 26, 2013 Green is a 21 year-old, 185 lbs., 6'3" combo guard. He led the nation in scoring at 25.4 points per game in the 2012-13 season and handed out 3.9 assists while shooting 51% from the field and 39% form the three-point line in 36 minutes per game. For an in depth look at Green, here is a video scouting report from Draft Express. What do you think Spurs fans? If this draft rumor is true, do you want to see the Spurs use their pick on a guard or does the team need size or something else to improve the team as the draft nears?

World Bank sounds alarm on rising global food prices
Washington: World food prices rose in the first quarter of the year for the first time since their all-time high in August 2012, driven by rising demand in China, drought in the United States and unrest in Ukraine.
According to the World Bank, internationally traded food prices increased by a sharp 4.0 percent. The leap was led by wheat and maize, up 18 percent and 12 percent, respectively.
As a result, international food prices in April were only 2.0 percent lower than a year ago and 16 percent below their record level in August 2012, the bank`s quarterly food price report said.
"Increasing weather concerns and import demand -- and, arguably, to a lesser extent, uncertainty associated with the Ukraine situation -- explain most of the price increases," the report said.
World Bank economists said prices increased despite bumper crops in 2013 and continued projections of record grain harvests and stronger stocks expected for 2014.
Persistently dry conditions in the United States and strong global demand, particularly from China, partly explained the price rises.But Ukraine, the breadbasket of eastern Europe, played a part, posting the largest domestic price increases for wheat and maize.
Ukraine, the world`s sixth-largest wheat exporter, saw domestic wheat prices jump by 37 percent, driven in part by currency depreciation.
Overall, international wheat prices soared by 18 percent quarter-over-quarter.
"Such a steep price increase had not occurred since the months leading to the historical peak in the summer of 2012," the report said.
International maize prices rose by 12 percent, with Ukraine, the third-largest exporter of maize, experiencing a 73 percent rise in domestic prices because of delayed plantings and increasing costs.
"Geopolitical tensions in Ukraine have not disrupted exports so far, but might have effects on future production and trade if uncertainty increases," the report said.
Other countries in the grip of political and economic stresses also saw prices shoot higher. In Argentina, for example, wheat prices were up 70 percent from a year ago.
Sugar prices rose 13 percent and soybean oil prices gained 6.0 percent quarter-over-quarter.
The first-quarter price increases were offset by a 12 percent decline in rice prices and a 7.0 percent drop in fertilizer prices.
The average price of crude oil rose 3.0 percent to $104 a barrel.
The United Nations reported last month that world food prices reached their highest level for 10 months in March due to poor weather in major producing countries and the crisis in Ukraine.
The UN Food and Agriculture Organization said its monthly food price index in March rose by 2.3 percent from February to the highest level since May last year.
Experts are concerned that rising prices will hurt the world`s most vulnerable and could foment food riots and other social unrest.
"Over the next few months, we must watch these prices carefully, making sure that any further increases do not put additional pressure on the least well-off around the world," senior World Bank official Ana Revenga said.
In 2007 and 2008, soaring food prices had sparked dozens of riots across the globe, including in Haiti, Cameroon and India.
According to the lender, 51 food riots have occurred in 37 countries since 2007, most of them linked to a jump in food prices and aimed at local authorities.
This was the case in the crises in Tunisia in 2011 and in South Africa in 2012, the bank said.
"Food price shocks can both spark and exacerbate conflict and political instability, and it is vital to promote policies that work to mitigate these effects," the report warned

The evolving role of the CMO
They say that "change is the only constant". It's fair to say that in the 20 years I've been in marketing positions, the role of the CMO has changed completely.
New marketing director at Australian online jobs platform startup, OneShift, looks to reflect the company's disruptive nature in his forthcoming marketing plan
Embracing "disruptive" marketing techniques will lie at the heart of a strategic brand blitz being put together by the new and first head of marketing at Australian online jobs platform, OneShift.
Simon Porter was most recently the managing director of iris worldwide and has spent 18 years in the agency space in the UK, Europe and Australia with clients such as Sony, Vodafone, Microsoft, Shell, Adidas and Diageo. He is also an angel investor in a number of tech startups that use new technologies to disrupt mass communications markets and has plans to launch a seed investment fund for Australian tech start-ups this year.
Porter's appointment as OneShift's marketing director earlier this month comes after 18 months of rapid growth at the Sydney-based startup. OneShift provides an automatic matching system which pairs employees with businesses, and already has 270,000 job seekers and 25,000 businesses using its website.
Recently, the company secured $5 million in investment from staffing and facility management company, Programmed.
"I'm a big advocate of start-ups and disruptive technologies and OneShift is bringing an entrepreneurial approach and disruptive technology to a market place that has been pretty traditional," Porter told CMO. "It's a young company, and an ambitious project that I believe I can make a difference to."
Porter will be responsible for overseeing public relations, digital, media buying, creative and social strategy for the online jobs platform. He said his focus is on reviewing what's been done to date, interrogating the user and market data in-house, and coming up with a strategy that will improve acquisition of businesses and job seekers, as well as lift conversion rates on all matches.
"Part of that will be working on the profile of our job seekers and attracting quality in terms of that profile," he explained.
Porter has a sizeable budget at his disposal and with a focus on brand building, sees national advertising and mass communication channels as key to building market awareness. However, he also stressed the importance of targeting through data, as well as embracing newer types of channels including mobile.
"I believe that as a challenger brand, we are a disruptor in the market place and our marketing should reflect what we stand for," he said. "We want to be disruptive with our marketing approach, whether it includes mobile, digital stunt-based or traditional media, to help us gain a greater share of market."
In a statement, OneShift founder and CEO, Genevieve George, said she was thrilled to have landed a talent of Porter's calibre.
"While we've been delighted with our success to date, we have plans to ramp up our marketing efforts in a major way this year to supercharge our growth and expansion plans," she said. "Simon's significant experience with top local and global brands and evident passion for startups and industry disruptors will make him a huge asset to our growing OneShift team."

Storage performance in virtualized environments isn't just about IOPS anymore. Instead, you need to guarantee performance for individual VMs, helping applications maintain performance as the number of VMs continues to go up in real time. In his session at Cloud Expo, Dhiraj Sehgal, Product and Marketing at Tintri, wil...

For new Gophers coach Richard Pitino, tonight will be much different from one night almost a year ago.
Then, Pitino was in his first stop as a head coach – at Florida International – learning on the fly about all the distinctions the top job brings. All the ways it was different from assistant life.
On November 11, 2012, he walked out onto a court in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, to lead his FIU team – which didn't play public exhibitions -- in front of a crowd for the first time.
"I legitimately remember walking out my first game at Boston College and going 'Oh my goodness, what am I doing?'" Pitino said, reminiscing. "It's really, really hard to train your mind to react a certain way until you've done it."
The limelight, he was more than used to. After a combined five years under his dad at Louisville and under Billy Donovan at Florida, Pitino was no stranger to the big stage. But things are different as head honcho.
"You don't know how to work the officials," Pitino said. "You've never done that before as an assistant coach -- you're sitting on the bench, trying to stay out of their way. What do I do if this guy gets a foul? What do I do if this guy all the sudden is acting crazy? I can't stop a game like I do in practice all the time. How do I keep my mind right if something goes wrong?
"Those are things that, it's experience, it's invaluable."
Thirty-two games later, he has some.
Now, the 31-year-old has a season's worth of head coaching experience under his belt and has grown into his coaching skin, a little bit. He enters Friday's season opener against Lehigh more established. The bright lights of the moment have faded to a hue that is entirely manageable and Pitino feels comfortable.
But nervous?
"I'm nervous for every game," he said.
Pitino noted that the biggest difference at Minnesota was the raised court, of which he has commented about the stool – "Everywhere I turned it was in my way – it was following me" – and the proximity of the bench – "Your staff feels so far away" -- but he's had a pair of exhibition games to get used to the new set-up this season.
"So exhibition games are good for our players, but also good for me," he said.
A few other notes on tonight's game:
- Flying in to witness his first game as the head coach of Minnesota will be his mother – Joanne Pitino – his uncle and his brother, Chris Pitino.
- Keep an eye on the Gophers fouls – Lehigh is the first real driving team Minnesota has faced, and thus will present the first real test for the Gophers restraint in regards to the new touch fouls being called.
- Expect the same lineup as we saw in the two exhibitions: Deandre Mathieu, Andre Hollins, Austin Hollins, Oto Osenieks, Elliott Eliason. Pitino said he does not plan to change it.

Lovely Retro motel, handy to everything, will stay again Bed was a little hard.
room was clean and comfortable for a 3 star motel, location was great and close to the beach and town.
The motel is perfectly located just a 2min walk into town. We loved the surprise back gate giving quick and easy access to the beach. The beds were huge as well as the size if the room. We had a great stay and would stay here again and recommend to friends.
Great budget motel, no frills, clean, good location, friendly staff. Would stay again.

I see you're in Ontario. Me too! A lot of people think I'm insane for trying to learn to run when the weather has been close to -20C with the windchill. I'm figuring that if I can motivate myself to do it now, surely when the weather is above freezing I'll be golden! It'll be nice not to have to figure out how many layers to go out in.

$25.49No historical event has left as deep an imprint on America's collective memory as the Civil War. In the war's aftermath, Americans had to embrace and cast off a traumatic past. David Blight explores the perilous path of remembering and forgetting, and reveals its tragic costs to race relations and America's national reunion.
Two Men Who Escaped to Freedom, Including Their Own Narratives of EmancipationSlave narratives, some of the most powerful records of our past, are extremely rare, with only fifty-five post–Civil War narratives surviving. A mere handful are first-person accounts by slaves who ran away and freed themselves. Now two newly uncovered narratives, and the biographies of the men who wrote them, join that exclusive group with the publication of A Slave No More, a major new addition
The Life and the Adventures of a Haunted ConvictThe earliest known prison memoir by an African American writer—recently discovered and authenticated by a team of Yale scholars—sheds light on the longstanding connection between race and incarceration in America."[A] harrowing [portrait] of life behind bars . . . part confession, part jeremiad, part lamentation, part picaresque novel (reminiscent, at times, of Dickens and Defoe)."—Michiko
Slavery, Resistance, and the Underground Railroad in the Detroit River BorderlandAs the major gateway into British North America for travelers on the Underground Railroad, the U.S./Canadian border along the Detroit River was a boundary that determined whether thousands of enslaved people of African descent could reach a place of freedom and opportunity. In A Fluid Frontier: Slavery, Resistance, and the Underground Railroad in the Detroit River Borderland, editors Karolyn
Indian Ocean Slavery in the Age of AbolitionWhile the British were able to accomplish abolition in the trans-Atlantic world by the end of the nineteenth century, their efforts paradoxically caused a great increase in legal and illegal slave trading in the western Indian Ocean. Bringing together essays from leading authorities in the field of slavery studies, this comprehensive work offers an original and creative study of slavery and
$12.39Born into slavery in 1818, Frederick Douglass escaped to freedom and became a passionate advocate for abolition and social change and the foremost spokesperson for the nation's enslaved African American population in the years preceding the Civil War. My Bondage and My Freedom is Douglass's masterful recounting of his remarkable life and a fiery condemnation of a political and social system that
$24.69First published in 1797, The Columbian Orator helped shape the American mind for the next half century, going through some 23 editions and totaling 200,000 copies in sales. The book was read by virtually every American schoolboy in the first half of the 19th century. As a slave youth, Frederick Douglass owned just one book, and read it frequently, referring to it as a "gem" and his "rich treasure.
Montesquieu's Science of PoliticsMontesquieu's The Spirit of Laws is one of a handful of classic works of political philosophy deserving a fresh reading every generation.
