No. 77,294 1
1. An appellate court's review of an order denying a motion for a new trial or a motion to recall a jury is limited to whether the trial court abused its discretion.
2. If a defendant's constitutional right has been violated during a trial, a judge's discretion to deny a motion for a new trial or a motion to recall a jury is limited. At this point, there is a greater reason for the judge to articulate the reasons for his or her "discretionary" decision.
3. A trial court's exercise of its discretion which results in an error of constitutional magnitude may not be held to be harmless unless an appellate court is willing to declare a belief that the error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt.
4. A trial court abuses its discretion when it denies a motion for a new trial based on juror misconduct if the defendant can show that (1) an act of the jury constituted misconduct and (2) the misconduct substantially prejudiced the defendant's right to a fair trial.
5. Under the facts of this case, where an advance sheet of the Kansas Reports containing an opinion with facts similar to the present case was left in the jury room by the trial judge, and the jurors read the opinion, there was jury misconduct that substantially prejudiced the defendant to the extent that his conviction must be reversed.
6. A defendant has a constitutional and statutory right to be present at every stage of his or her trial.
7. Under the facts of this case, the defendant's right to be present at every stage of the trial was violated when a conference was held with a potential witness in the defendant's absence to determine if that witness would testify or invoke her Fifth Amendment rights. The absence of the defendant from that conference violated his constitutional rights and requires that his convictions be reversed.
8. Under the facts of this case, the admission of a tape-recorded statement by a witness who had claimed her Fifth Amendment rights and refused to testify was error since the statement became inadmissable hearsay after its maker announced her decision to refuse to testify.
Appeal from Johnson District Court; WILLIAM A. CLEAVER, judge. Opinion filed January 29, 1999. Reversed and remanded with directions.
Craig Durham, assistant appellate defender, and Jessica R. Kunen, chief appellate defender, for the appellant.
Steven J. Obermeier, assistant district attorney, Paul J. Morrison, district attorney, and Carla J. Stovall, attorney general, for the appellee.
Before LEWIS, P.J., ELLIOTT, J., and RICHARD B. WALKER, District Judge, assigned.
WALKER, J.: Mario Garza appeals his conviction of one count of sale of marijuana and one count of possession of marijuana without a drug tax stamp.
Garza's convictions resulted from a controlled buy made at the home of Melissa Shelby. In exchange for reduced charges on earlier drug crimes, Shelby was working with police and allowed the drug buy to occur at her residence. Several police officers observed the events leading up to the buy and were able to identify Garza as the person who was at Shelby's home, but the only person to actually witness the buy was Shelby.
Police were also in possession of a tape recording made of Shelby's telephone conversations with Garza.
Garza was charged with the crimes over 1 year after the buy actually occurred. To say the least, Shelby was an extremely reluctant witness. She failed to appear at the first preliminary hearing and appeared at a second scheduled hearing only after being arrested and held as a material witness. Both at the preliminary hearing and the trial, Shelby stated that she remembered little or nothing about the buy. The admission of her testimony and the tape-recorded conversations were the subject of extensive pretrial motion activity by Garza, including two motions in limine and one motion to suppress arguing that Shelby should not be permitted to testify. All these motions were denied by the trial court.
A few days before trial, the court held a hearing to determine whether Shelby would assert her Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination. Neither Garza nor his counsel was notified of the hearing. Shelby indicated at the hearing that she would invoke her Fifth Amendment rights, and the trial court held that she could not be called as a witness unless the State granted her immunity.
On the date of trial, Garza and his counsel were notified of the prior hearing with Shelby at which she had invoked her Fifth Amendment rights. Garza's counsel objected to the fact that he had not been notified of the prior hearing, and the court promptly held another hearing involving Garza's counsel but without Garza being personally present. At that hearing, the State offered Shelby immunity, and the trial court held that she could no longer assert her Fifth Amendment privilege.
In spite of Shelby's lack of recall, the trial court held she was available for cross-examination and allowed her to testify. Because of her "inability" to recall the events, the court admitted the tape-recorded conversations between Shelby and Garza. Understandably, during the trial there were a number of bench conferences outside the presence of the jury regarding Shelby's testimony. Garza was convicted of the charges.
After the trial, the judge and counsel for both parties met with jurors to discuss the case. One juror asked why so many bench conferences had been held regarding Shelby's testimony. They informed the juror that Shelby was a reluctant witness who claimed to have no recall of the buy. The juror then stated that an advance sheet of the Kansas Reports tabbed to a case was left in the jury room and that the tabbed case dealt with the same issue. The juror went on to say that the jurors had read and discussed the case.
Subsequently, Garza moved for a new trial based upon juror misconduct or, in the alternative, to have the jury recalled for further questioning. The trial court denied both motions.
Garza first argues that the trial court erred in denying his motion for a new trial or, in the alternative, his motion to recall the jury. This court's review of an order denying a new trial or a motion to recall a jury is limited to whether the trial court abused its discretion. State v. Franklin, 264 Kan. 496, 498, 958 P.2d 611 (1998). If a constitutional right has been violated, however, a judge's discretion is limited. Saucedo v. Winger, 252 Kan. 718, 731, 850 P.2d 908 (1993). Then, there is a greater need for the judge to articulate the reasons for his or her "discretionary" decision. 252 Kan. at 731.
An exercise of discretion which results in an error of constitutional magnitude may not be held to be harmless unless an appellate court is willing to declare a belief that the error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. 252 Kan. at 732. A trial court abuses its discretion when a defendant can show that (1) the jury's act constituted misconduct and (2) the misconduct substantially prejudiced the defendant's right to a fair trial. State v. Goseland, 256 Kan. 729, 735, 887 P.2d 1109 (1994).
The basis for Garza's allegation of juror misconduct is the fact that an advance sheet was left in the jury room, tabbed to a case which was directly on point to the issues in his case, and the jurors admitted to reading and discussing the case. The case involved was State v. Johnson-Howell, 255 Kan. 928, 881 P.2d 1288 (1994). The case involved a witness who, like Shelby, refused to testify at trial. The witness, like Shelby, had invoked his Fifth Amendment privilege and then refused to testify. As in the present case, over defense counsel's hearsay objections, the witness' prior out-of-court statements were admitted into evidence. The Supreme Court found that the trial court had erred in admitting the witness' testimony pursuant to K.S.A. 60-460(a) because the witness refused to testify and was therefore not available for cross-examination. The Supreme Court ultimately found, however, that the error was harmless in view of the overwhelming evidence of the defendant's guilt. Howell-Johnson, 255 Kan. at 952.
Garza correctly points out that prior to reading this case, the jury was left to wonder why Shelby could not recall the events of the drug buy and why there were so many bench conferences outside the jury's presence. He argued that after reading the case, the jury could "fill in the blanks" and speculate that Shelby had made incriminating statements similar to the witness in Howell-Johnson and that these statements were being kept from them.
The trial court itself admitted to leaving the advance sheet--tabbed to the Howell-Johnson case--in the jury room during pretrial motions. The State admits that the case was on point, but argues that all the case does is "kind of explains the legal process . . . how the Court process works." Further, the State argues that as a matter of law, the trial court is forbidden from inquiring into the thought processes of the jurors and, therefore, the jurors cannot be recalled.
This argument fails. The Kansas Supreme Court has held that the statutory prohibition against impeachment of a jury does not apply when a party claims that his or her constitutional right to a fair trial was violated by jury misconduct. Saucedo, 252 Kan. 718, Syl. ¶ 2.
Further, the fact that the case "explained the legal process" is precisely why the reading of the case by the jurors was prejudicial. The jury is supposed to learn about the legal process or how the court works only through jury instructions. The reading of this case--a case directly on point and used to support motions in the case--went far beyond those instructions. The State's argument that it would be "far more detrimental to a fair trial for a jury to look at a dictionary defining legal terms," referring to the Supreme Court's ruling in State v. Duncan, 3 Kan. App. 2d 271, 593 P.2d 427 (1979), that the reading of the definition for the legal term "assault" in a dictionary did not prejudice a criminal defendant, is specious at best.
To compare a case in which the jury looked up the word "assault" to a case in which the jurors read a decision directly on point to one of the most litigated issues in a trial defies common sense. Cf. State v. Goseland, 256 Kan. 729. Moreover, it was the trial court itself that left the advance sheet in the jury room, making the error even more grievous. The State also argues that other jurisdictions have held that the mere reviewing of a reported case does not amount to sufficient evidence to necessitate a new trial. See United States v. Hill, 688 F.2d 18 (6th Cir.), cert. denied 459 U.S. 1074 (1982); State v. Powell, 400 N.W.2d 562 (Iowa 1987); Annaratone v. State, 399 So. 2d 825 (Miss. 1981); State v. Taylor, 917 S.W.2d 222 (Mo. App. 1996).
While this is true, these cases are easily distinguishable from the present case. In each of those cases the jury found extrinsic legal materials and read through them. In one case, the jury looked up the appropriate punishment for a defendant, although the jury was responsible for the guilt phase of the trial not the punishment phase. In none of the cases, however, did the jurors read a case directly on point to the issues in the trial from extrinsic legal materials left in the jury room by the court itself.
Shelby's testimony--or lack of testimony--was the central issue in this case. The jurors' reading of the Johnson-Howell case, which explained the law regarding the admission of her testimony and her ability to invoke her Fifth Amendment privilege, was clearly misconduct and substantially prejudiced Garza. The trial court's refusal to grant a new trial or to recall the jury to determine whether the extrinsic evidence substantially affected the jury's verdict was error which requires this court to reverse and remand for a new trial. See Saucedo v. Winger, 252 Kan. at 733.
Next, Garza argues that the district court erred in holding two hearings outside of his presence, thereby violating his rights to due process and confrontation of a witness. Whether a defendant's right to confrontation and presence has been violated is a question of law. A question of law is subject to de novo review. See State v. Donlay, 253 Kan. 132, Syl. ¶ 1, 853 P.2d 680 (1993). A defendant has a constitutional and statutory right to be present at every stage of his or her trial. United States Constitution, Sixth Amendment; K.S.A. 22-3405.
The first hearing that was held outside of Garza's presence was a hearing before trial to determine what Shelby's testimony would be and to determine whether she would invoke her Fifth Amendment privilege. Neither defense counsel nor defendant was notified of the hearing. This court has held that a defendant's presence at in-chambers conferences concerning questions of law is not essential to a fair and just determination of those questions. State v. Rhoads, 20 Kan. App. 2d 790, 794, 892 P.2d 918 (1995). Whether Shelby would testify was not only a question of law, it was the central question around which both the State and defense cases revolved.
In State v. Willis, 254 Kan. 119, 124, 864 P.2d 1198 (1993), the Supreme Court held that where a deposition of the key witness in a murder trial was taken outside of the presence of the defendant, his confrontation rights were violated. As in Willis, there is no showing here that Garza was notified of his right to be present at the hearing. Additionally, Shelby was the only witness who actually saw the drug buy and, for this reason, her testimony was vital to the determination of Garza's guilt or innocence.
If Garza's confrontation rights were denied, in order to affirm the trial court's ruling, this court must find beyond a reasonable doubt that his absence had little if any likelihood of changing the result of the trial. See Willis, 254 Kan. at 123. As in Willis, this court would be hard pressed to do so.
"The essence of assisting in one's defense depends upon being confronted with the evidence and witnesses." Willis, 254 Kan. at 124. Shelby's testimony was crucial to the State's case. Throughout the proceedings, Garza objected to Shelby's testimony. He objected both through motions and orally. Whether Shelby would testify and whether she would invoke her Fifth Amendment privilege was the central focus of the pretrial motions in this case and most of the bench conferences during the trial.
Shelby was the only direct witness to the crime. Because Shelby's testimony was central to both the prosecution and the defense in this case, this court cannot say beyond a reasonable doubt that Garza's absence from the hearing had little, if any, likelihood of changing the result of the trial. Accord Willis, 254 Kan. at 126-27.
Having concluded that the defendant's absence from the first hearing violated his constitutional rights, it follows that his absence from the second hearing--held the first day of trial and regarding the same issues--also violated his rights.
Finally, Garza argues that the introduction of Shelby's tape-recorded conversation with him was inadmissible hearsay and that its admission violated his right to confront all witnesses against him.
Shelby's testimony at the preliminary hearing and trial was consistent. She stated again and again that she could not recall the events related to the controlled buy. Because of her lack of recall, the State sought to introduce the tape-recorded conversation between Shelby and Garza pursuant to K.S.A. 60-460(a), previous statements of a person present, or 60-460(j), as a declaration against interest. The trial court found that Shelby was available for cross-examination and admitted the testimony as a declaration against interest.
A district judge has wide discretion in determining the admissibility of hearsay evidence under the declaration against interest exception. State v. Cooper, 20 Kan. App. 2d 759, 761, 892 P.2d 909, rev. denied 257 Kan. 1093 (1995). K.S.A. 60-460(j) contemplates that certain out-of-court statements are admissible in court if the judge, using judicial discretion, finds that the proffered hearsay statement was at the time of the assertion so far contrary to the declarant's interest or subjected the declarant to civil or criminal liability to the extent that a reasonable person in declarant's position would not have made the statement unless he or she believed such statement to be true. Additionally, the party offering the evidence must also make a showing of trustworthiness by the declarant. 20 Kan. App. 2d at 762.
If, however, a declarant has no good reason to believe that the assertion will bring harm or believes the assertion is more likely to cause benefit rather than harm, the assertion will not be excepted from the hearsay rule. 20 Kan. App. 2d at 763. The tape-recorded conversation between Shelby and Garza took place after she had already been arrested and after she had agreed to cooperate with the police. Shelby agreed to the controlled buy and made the statements in her role as a confidential informant. The statements did not subject her to further prosecution and, in fact, benefitted her. It is difficult to understand how statements which benefitted Shelby--she was allowed to plead to a lesser charge for her crimes--were a declaration against interest.
Shelby's statements were also inadmissible pursuant to K.S.A. 60-460(a). A statement previously made by a person who is present at the hearing and available for cross-examination is admissible as an exception to the general rule that hearsay is inadmissible. K.S.A. 60-460(a). This exception does not apply in the present case because, for all intents and purposes, Shelby refused to testify. See State v. Johnson-Howell, 255 Kan. at 937; Cooper, 20 Kan. App. 2d at 763. The State did not seek to admit the testimony under any of the other hearsay exceptions and, even if it had, they do not appear to apply.
The trial court abused its discretion in admitting the tape-recorded testimony where the statements were not against Shelby's interest and where she claimed to have no recall of the buy. Having already determined that Garza's Confrontation Clause rights were violated, it is unnecessary to determine whether those same rights were violated by allowing the admission of a witness who was "unavailable" for cross-examination.
Garza's convictions are reversed and the case is remanded for a new trial.
Reversed and remanded with directions.

UNIONS have called off the threat of industrial action on the day the city's £15m Titanic museum opens.
The decision comes after members refused to back it.
Leaders of the Unison and Unite unions said they did not want to cause distress to a parade of 500 children each carrying an image of one of those who died in the disaster, many from Southampton, during the commemorations on April 10.
The parade would have clashed with a union walkout and protest march over mass pay cuts imposed on staff last summer. Unions said they weren't previously aware of the children's parade.
Tory council leaders had slammed the proposed industrial action as "despicable" and "a new low" in the bitter dispute.
Unions leaders insist it was not designed to diminish the memory of dead Southampton seafarers, most of whom were members of trade unions, and were disappointed that Conservative councillors made such an accusation.
They said council workers believed money saved by cutting their wages has been used to fund the construction of the £15m SeaCity Museum.
The council received a £4.9m lottery grant to build it. The remainder will come from fundraising and asset sales.
Unison branch secretary Mike Tucker said the museum was opening "purely to enhance the Conservatives' election campaign".
He said: "Council workers remain angry that their wages have been cut while money is spent on Cllr Smith's vanity project."
Council leader Royston Smith said: "It is great news that the unions have decided not to protest on this day and I'm pleased that they have seen sense. As the city remembers and pays tribute to all those Southampton people who died onboard Titanic, and hundreds of children parade through the city, it would have been completely inappropriate for a protest to take place."

Sunderland AFC's safety manager Paul Weir is the latest in a growing list of the game's senior figures to back safe standing. In an interview with fanzine A Love Supreme Weir backed the key tenet of the Football Supporters' Federation's argument - that fans should have the choice to sit or stand in safety.
"As a club we would like to give fans who want to stand the opportunity to do so in a safe, appropriately designated area. The rail seats concept looks interesting and if the rules allowed it I'd be happy to manage standing fans in such areas," said Weir.
Weir joins Peterborough United chief executive Bob Symns, who earlier this month gave his backing to safe standing, even offering to use the club's London Road ground to trial safe standing areas if Parliament and the football authorities would authorise it.
Earlier this year Aston Villa chief executive Paul Faulkner voiced his support while the Scottish Premier League has also said it would like to trial safe standing areas. In July Derby County and Nigel Clough followed suit while Wembley architect John Barrow of Populous said safe standing areas could be introduced "without any problems at all". Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis has also said he is "open" to safe standing.
Weir was speaking after a visit by the Safe Standing Roadshow to Sunderland's Stadium of Light. The Roadshow, which has made more than twenty appearances at football grounds over the past year, demonstrates how safe standing can work, with a small-scale model of the rail seating system which is used in stadia in Germany.
Jon Darch, who manages the Safe Standing Roadshow, said: "Many Premier League and Championship grounds are all-seater in name only, with many fans taking it for granted that they will stand regardless. That creates an unnecessary headache for safety professionals such as Paul, and inconveniences other spectators who prefer to sit.
"The solution is properly designated standing areas fitted with rail seats. This would enable fans who want to stand to do so in complete safety, ensuring that those who prefer to sit are not inconvenienced."
Peter Daykin, the FSF's Safe Standing Campaign co-ordinator, welcomed Weir's comments. "There's a real head of steam gathering behind safe standing and we hope those in positions of power take note – it's not just fans who would like safe standing areas, so would many of the industry's leading figures."

A year ago yesterday I was in Boston running 26.2 miles. The Boston Marathon is special. It is the gold standard. It is the only one, for which you have to qualify. It is an honor to run.
Hearing about the bombings at the Boston finish lines makes me not only sad but angry. It makes me angry for the runners and people who were cheering them on. The focus is no longer the accomplishment of completing the world's premier marathon. A day of celebration turned into a day of fear, and that makes me sad.
However, I don't think this should keep people from doing Boston next year or cheering on the runners. In fact I think more people should. Show the person or people involved that we will not be shaken. Not as runners, not as a city and not as a country.
FOX19 News Anchor Rob Williams ran in the Boston Marathon in 2012.

to the HEADLINE Box: Text and HEADLINE Box: Links areas in the theme options, but I can't figure out how to limit the change to just one page. (I used to do this with a whole category of posts via div., but I'm drawing a blank on singling out one page.)

In an interview that aired last night on the Oprah Winfrey Network, Lance Armstrong confessed that he doped. That confession, added to mountains of other evidence, could cost him millions of dollars. There are three groups of people he may owe money to:
1. SCA Promotions
SCA is a company that underwrote millions of dollars of bonuses that Lance received for winning the Tour de France. Now that he's been stripped of those titles — they want their money back.
SCA had already planned to sue Armstrong before his Oprah interview. Last night, the company's lawyer, Jeff Dorough, was watching for specific phrases that could make their case easier to win. Dorough says the company wanted Armstrong to say he hid the doping, and last night he did. He was also watching to see if Lance would implicate anyone else, but that didn't happen.
2. The U.S. Postal Service
The U.S. Postal Service spent about $30 million sponsoring Lance Armstrong's cycling team, according to ESPN and the Wall Street Journal.
A former teammate of Armstrong's, Floyd Landis, has filed a whistle-blower lawsuit on behalf of the U.S. government, alleging that Armstrong was the architect of a massive doping operation. If the Justice Department decides to join Landis in the suit, the amount of money they could win would triple-- up to $90 million. The Justice Department has not made public decision about whether to join the suit.
3. People he sued and threatened
Over the years, many people publicly accused Armstrong of doping. He sued and threatened many of those people and, in one case, in one case, he actually won damages from a newspaper for printing what he now admits is the truth. Now that paper has said they want their money back.
Forbes has estimated Armstrong's net worth at over $100 million.
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Audie Cornish.
And I'm Robert Siegel. Lance Armstrong's televised interview with Oprah Winfrey made for must-see TV last night. After years of denials, the now disgraced cyclist admitted doping throughout much of his career. As Zoe Chace from NPR's Planet Money reports, his confession won't simply hurt his already tarnished reputation, it could also end up costing him tens of millions of dollars.
ZOE CHACE, BYLINE: For all the lawyers watching last night, and there were lots of lawyers watching, this was the moment.
DANIEL COYLE: There's a price tag to this confession. I think Armstrong's lawyers are keenly aware of exactly what that price tag is because you can figure it out.
CHACE: Daniel Coyle says there are lots of different kinds of people who could stand to make money here. He's been writing about Lance Armstrong for years. One of those with the biggest claim, he says, is the company called SCA.
COYLE: You've got about $12 million going to the SCA, a company that underwrote a bunch of Lance's bonuses.
CHACE: This gets complicated, but there was a company who had to pay out what amounts to insurance every time Armstrong won the Tour de France.
JEFF DOROUGH: By the 2004 Tour de France, we had already paid him, let's see, I want to say 4.5 million.
CHACE: 4.5 million they wouldn't have had to pay if he hadn't won. That's SCA lawyer Jeff Dorough. And now that he's been stripped of his titles, he hasn't won after all and they want their money back. SCA had this lawsuit all prepared and then they heard about Oprah.
DOROUGH: With news that he was going to do this interview kind of put things on hold.
CHACE: They watched, watching for specific phrases that would make their case even tighter. For example...
: I doped.
CHACE: Check. The SCA lawyer would also be looking for another phrase.
: I hid that fact.
CHACE: This could show fraudulent concealment.
: There wasn't that much out of competition testing, so you're not going to get caught.
CHACE: So check, but there was something else.
DOROUGH: I think we're also interested in who else he might implicate. You know, we feel like anybody who was involved in this conspiracy to defraud our company would be fair game.
CHACE: That one, no dice, at least not last night.
: I'm not comfortable talking about other people. I'm not. And it's all out there.
CHACE: But SCA is filing suit very soon. Another group that was probably watching, lawyers for the government. The U.S. Postal Service, remember, spent around $30 million sponsoring Lance Armstrong's team. Rick Morgan is a lawyer who specializes in government fraud cases.
RICK MORGAN: The money that was paid was paid under false pretences and in violation of the contract and so, that times three would be recoverable under the law.
CHACE: Potentially, $90 million at stake. The third group that's watching very carefully, people sued by Lance Armstrong. Remember, during the years when the allegations were swirling, many people came forward to say, yes, he was doping. In many cases, Armstrong would sue or threaten legal action. In one case, he actually won damages from a newspaper for printing what he now admits is the truth.
CHACE: A character flaw and a legal blunder. So far, at least one target of Armstrong's legal bullying is planning to sue him back, the Sunday Times of London. That could cost Armstrong a million-five. Others may follow. Forbes has estimated Armstrong's net worth at around $100 million. After Oprah, they have some recalculating to do. Zoe Chace, NPR News.

We also talk about the Andre Ethier trade rumors. While we both realize the Dodgers probably aren't going to trade him, there's at least some validity to the rumors.
Finally, we give a sneak peek of our top prospect lists. Massey is doing a Top 20 and I'm doing a Top 50. I'm shooting for mid-January on that list. I'm just not going to be able to squeeze it in before the end of the year.

text: Outlook: Bears, Plant and Wait April 26, 2013 09:01 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Bob Utterback Farm Journal Columnist Email The market is still reeling from the March bombshell that hit the grain complex. With notably more inven-tory in storage than expected, the bulls will have to prove that demand will recover, or yields will be significantly hurt to tighten supply. All the bears have to do is get the crop planted and sit back and wait. The end user, who was under pressure in 2012, is being patient—buying only what he has to in expectation of bigger supplies this fall. At the same time, farmers are frustrated that they have unpriced grain in the bin and a limited amount of new crop priced. Most will probably rely on crop insurance and put their crop in the bin. The problem is that strong bull market recoveries in the past few years have farmers believing they can outlast the bear. They might be right, but they need a banker on their side. If we see two years of corn yields above 155 bu. per acre and acres in excess of 96 million, the lows in 2014 might be below the cost of production. Sales Index Key Excellent sales opportunity...10 Excellent buying opportunity..1 Since 2000, the June final planting numbers have been lower only three times, while planted acres have increased 10 times. These are not the kind of odds we want to see for December 2013 corn to move above $6. Corn 123456 7 8910 The damage has been done to old- and new-crop corn prices. During the next 45 days, we will see more of a sideways trading pattern than a trending market. New crop, even after the recent sharp correction, should still remain strong. All eyes are on how fast the crop gets planted. This is the bull's last real hope for strong prices. If 80% or more of the corn crop has been planted by mid-May, it will be difficult for December 2013 to move above $5.95. If September corn is premium to December 2013 corn by 20¢ or more, place all new hedges in September. If anyone is short December corn (in options or futures), roll back to the September shortly after the May supply and demand report or at 30¢, whichever is tested first. For cash sales off the combine, lock up basis early if the crop gets planted. In regard to selling, buy deep-in-the-money puts. Plan to be 100% positioned by early May and hope for strength so the puts can be rolled up in June and July. In regard to 2014 sales, get in position if there are weather scare events in June or July. Beans 1234567 8 910 The April report found more soybeans domestically, along with the expectation of strong sales out of South America. This implies that the possibility of $15 soybeans no longer exists unless the market sees serious signs of crop failure. In fact, new crop soybeans are trending lower on the general expectation of solid acres. Since 2000, soybean acres have only increased five times by the final June report. This implies even if we see decent planting weather, soybean acres will not grow. We could actually see a better upside price response if a weather event occurs. If you want to play the potential for a weather scare, be long on soybeans, not corn or wheat. Actively sell soybeans between $12.50 and $13 basis the November 2013 soybean contract. Maintain a cautious selling stance by using deep-in-the-money puts rather than cash or selling futures contracts, due to the impact a possible weather event would have on prices. Use long puts and be 100% priced. In cash or futures, have a plan to defend upside price risk exposure if there is any sign of a technical close in November soybeans above $13.25 after mid-May. Wheat 1234 5 678910 The domestic crop continues to look weak, which has helped stabilize values, but global supplies are still overpowering the market. There will be strong interest in buying wheat and selling corn by many end users and speculators in June and July. If overall feed supplies are moving into a surplus time period, however, the upside potential of wheat will be limited. If anyone is short, move to the sidelines with all positions in late August. It is too late to add new positions to sell wheat. Focus on cross commodity hedging by placing new sales in the corn complex rather than wheat. In regard to storage, expect wide basis and a carrying charge structure to come back into the wheat complex as the market is assured of good supplies of other feed grains. Those with storage and hedges in place are in good shape. If you are unpriced, the options are limited; focus on selling in August between wheat and corn harvest. Cattle 12 3 45678910 The cattle market went through a rough spell recently. This has taken a lot of steam away from the bulls, but they still have ammo to use. If cattle producers are sure that feed supplies and pasture conditions are improving, I expect solid moves to rebuild some of the drought-reduced herds. This will tighten an already tight supply chain in the third and fourth quarters of 2013. The offsetting factor will be the lackluster demand for a high-priced product. However, if consumers can regain confidence that economic conditions are improving, we will see better demand, which will support a strong price recovery in late 2013. For those who intend to buy feeders this fall, there's a risk of buying at high prices and selling at weak prices. With that in mind, buy feeders on pressure earlier rather than later. The key is to lock up feed needs for the first half of 2014 between September and October. Talk to your banker and develop plans on how and when to start a scale-down buying plan for feed needs on expected fall lows. Hogs 1234 5 678910 The fall from the winter highs, to levels where demand should be bought and there is limited excitement to expand, should prevail until we have absolute conformations of big feed supplies. Some herd expansion has already started, and it will increase quickly if the feed supplies become abundant. Producers must price 2014 inventory on any solid retest of the early 2013 highs. The best chance will be this fall, but it won't rise as high as current levels because the trade will be looking at possible herd expansion.

Some folklore tales told about Johnny Appleseed
July 19, 2014
Some tales told in folklore accounts about the man known as Johnny Appleseed:
— Wore his cooking pot as a hat to save having to carry it while traveling.
— Extinguished a fire he had built when he realized mosquitoes drawn to the flames were dying. He didn't want to kill living creatures.
— Went barefoot year-round, even in ice and snow, and entertained children by pressing hot coals or needles into the leathery soles of his feet.
— Found a bear and its cub inside a hollow log where he had planned to sleep and decided to let them have it.
— Ran barefoot about 30 miles from Mansfield to Mount Vernon to warn of impending Indian massacres in the War of 1812.
— Wore a coffee sack with holes for his arms and legs.

I guess this falls in the category a dumb question is an UN asked question. Is wiring a AC sub panel in a RV the same as wiring a sub panel in a residential home.
I thought I had this all figured out, BUT . . .I have: 30 foot RV cable Male plug to bare wire Square D 30-Amp Main Lug Load Center [ http://www.truevalue.com/product/30-Amp-Main-Lug-Load-Center/9759.uts ] Two 15 amp breakers #12 Romex Old Work Boxes Outlets and Covers I planned to attach the RV cable to the Lug Load Center, then come off the 15 amp breakers with #12 romex to two standard plugs. This should give me two circuits that will trip at 15 amps, one circuit for heater or AC and another circuit for refrigerator/microwave. The RV hookup is the "panel" and will trip if 30 amps is exceeded and the Lug Load Center is the "subpanel" that will trip if either of the two circuits in my van exceed 15 amps.The Lug Load Center has no ground bar (but an apparent screw hole for attaching a ground bar). What do I do with the ground? Did Home Depot sell me the wrong pieces? Do I need a 30 amp breaker --> two 15 amp breakers? Where can I find a wiring diagram?This seems so simple, but since I can find no wiring diagram anywhere to confirm my plans, I've got to be missing something. I'm pretty good with Google and with basic wiring, but I cannot seem to find a wiring diagram anywhere to confirm that what I plan is correct and safe. What assembly do I put on the bare end of my 30 ft/30 amp RV cable to give me two 15 amp circuits in my van?Thank you all for all your answers ! ! !

EL DORADO — A bench trial has been scheduled for a 64-year-old school bus driver charged in an accident that resulted in the bus tipped over in a creek in south-central Kansas last fall.
The Wichita Eagle reports (http://bit.ly/1eqFGM2 ) the trial for Morris Peterson is set for April 2 in Butler County. Peterson has pleaded not guilty to child endangerment and reckless driving. Butler County Assistant Attorney Alice Burns says Peterson's attorney requested the trial during a hearing Monday.
Ten children were aboard the bus during an afternoon route on Oct. 31, when the bus was pushed off the road by high water and into swollen Muddy Creek as Morris tried to cross a low-water bridge. The only child who was injured was treated and released the same day from a hospital.

Video – Little Feat's Bill Payne in the ZEW Lounge
On the way to the gig at Soul Kitchen, Little Feat co-founder Bill Payne dropped by the ZEW Lounge to chat music, teach us a few things about piano and played a few tunes.
Payne said the current Little Feat lineup is basically the same as last few years: Paul Barrere, Fred Tacket, Kenny Gradney, Sam Clayton but a new drummer Gabe Ford (nephew of blues guitarist Robben Ford). Ford replaced Richie Hayward who passed away. Payne discusses the musical losses and the way the losses carry the musicians on to bring the music to the fans.
He gave the background to Oh Atlanta before playing it on piano and did a medley of sorts from the new record 'Rooster Rag', which is on sale now.
And what an excellent show too, pulling the fan faves out that fit comfortably with the new material.

I'm not new to programming, and I'm proficient in multiple languages, so if a Different programming languages require I can easily adapt . I have already spent a great deal of time searching Google and various programming sites, trying to figure out the way usernames and passwords are stored within browser cache, but with no success so far.I know that typically this data is kept within the %APPDATA% folder on the system, but I'm unable to figure out which file I should be looking for.

Bill would ban communities from buying BearCat vehiclesStaff Report
February 08. 2014 9:42PM
A state representative has introduced a bill that would ban communities from acquiring BearCats or similar military equipment.
State Rep. JR Hoell, R-Dunbarton, filed HB 1307 because he feels law enforcement agencies are focusing more on intimidation than on building relationships within their communities.
"Our law enforcement agencies are becoming more militarized," said Hoell. "The focus shouldn't be on getting the latest military equipment. At the end of the day, this is about answering the question of: Are we safer having this equipment? My answer to that question is no."
Specifically, the bill would amend RSA 111:8 to read, "No state agency or political subdivision of this state shall acquire, purchase, or otherwise accept for use any military-equipped vehicle or military grade hardware, including but not limited to armored personnel carriers, Title II weapons, unmanned aerial vehicles, or unmanned ground vehicles, unless such military grade vehicle or hardware is readily available in an open national commercial market. The adjutant general shall notify the state attorney general of a violation of this paragraph. Any military-equipped vehicle or military grade hardware acquired in violation hereof shall be forfeited."
The National Guard would be exempt from this amendment.
The BearCat is an armored personnel carrier retrofitted with thick walls and glass that can stop high-caliber bullets. It can fit at least 10 officers and is equipped with gun ports on each side and a rotating center hatch.
Hoell said he feels funds spent on military-style equipment could have been used in better ways.
"Think about the situations we've had in New Hampshire where you would ever use one of these things," said Hoell. "We've heard how a BearCat is there to deploy to communities for a flash flood. In a case like that, an excavator would be a much better purchase for a community. In the case of Greenland, they had a BearCat there, and what happened? The chief died. There are better ways this money can be spent."
An armored SWAT vehicle was dispatched to the scene of a violent shootout in Greenland in April 2012 in which Greenland Police Chief Michael Maloney was killed and four other officers injured. The gunman, suspected drug dealer Cullen Mutrie, also killed his ex-girlfriend, Brittany Tibbetts, and himself in the incident.
Keene Police Chief Kenneth J. Meola gave a report on his department's armored vehicle, a Lenco BearCat, to the Keene City Council's finance, organization and personnel committee last month, explaining the vehicle's use over the past six months.
Meola said the vehicle was used 13 times between June 17 and Dec. 31 for reasons ranging from an appearance at an open house in Rindge to multiple training exercises. Over the six-month period, he said, the only funds expended on the BearCat were to cover fuel costs, a total of $183.94.
Similar vehicles are owned by the New Hampshire State Police, the Nashua Police Special Response Team, the Manchester Police SWAT Team, the Central New Hampshire Special Operations Unit based in Concord, the Southern New Hampshire Special Operations Unit in Derry and the Seacoast Advanced Response Team (SERT) in Portsmouth.
Hoell said he requested the bill be drafted following a vote last fall by the Concord City Council to accept a $258,000 federal grant to purchase a BearCat, after officials were presented with a petition signed by 1,500 people opposing acquisition of the vehicle, fearing it could be used against peaceful people.
The House Executive Departments and Administration Committee held a hearing on the bill Jan. 30, where Hoell said committee members expressed concerns that the bill would take away local control regarding purchases.
"Some committee members asked what role state legislators should have in telling a community how to spend its funds," said Hoell. "The role should be to provide the best law enforcement protection to citizens we can, not militarize police departments."
He said the bill would also prohibit communities from purchasing fully automatic firearms that can't be acquired on the public market.
"I'm not looking to stop anyone from picking up bulletproof vests and body armor," said Hoell.
He said the committee is unlikely to vote on the bill until later this month or in early March, and go before the House if it receives the committee's recommendation.

Most of coach Hue Jackson's "toys" were on full display during practice Wednesday, which meant a steady diet of running back Darren McFadden up the gut, wide receiver Jacoby Ford in full sprint down the sideline and rookie running back Taiwan Jones blow past defenders as if he were on ice skates.
Jackson can't contain himself when talking about those players, and watching them up close offers a valid reason why, as well as a glimpse into how explosive the Raiders offense can be this season.
On Wednesday, Jones sprinted into the secondary a few times, turned on the speed and raced past defenders and into the end zone in no time.
"He's fast, man," Jackson said. "God can this guy run. He's extremely fast but he's very … he's very nimble and he's very smooth. I don't think sometimes you know he's running that fast."
Jones is far more than a speedburner, Jackson said. He stands 6-feet and weighs 195 pounds but don't be fooled by his size.
"For a guy that's built like he is, he's very physical," Jackson said. "There's a lot of velocity behind the man when he runs into a pile. I've been excited watching him out here practice and we're going to make sure we can crank him up this week and let him run."
McFadden hears about how fast he is all the time. Now, he has someone who he can rave about.
"Man, he's fast," McFadden said. "Like lightning. I was watching him. He was just hitting holes. You see him put his foot in the ground. He was moving."
*Well, scratch Kirk Morrison off the list of potential linebackers the Raiders might bring in to help fill the void created by the left knee injury to backup Travis Goethel. Morrison signed with the Buffalo Bills on Wednesday afternoon.
The Raiders didn't sign any linebackers Wednesday. However, Jackson said the Raiders will continue to look at any players, at any position, who can make the Raiders a better team.
*An injury to veteran tight end Brandon Myers midway through practice left the Raiders with only two healthy tight ends — first-year player Kevin Brock and rookie Richard Gordon.
Myers was kicked in the foot by a teammate in a passing drill, and he was escorted off the field by a trainer after being tended to on the sideline.
Projected starter Kevin Boss (knee) and rookie David Ausberry (undisclosed injury) already are sidelined. Boss is listed as week to week, and he likely won't play against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday night. Ausberry said Wednesday that he "should play Sunday."
Gordon and Brock made nice catches of high throws Wednesday, showing that they can be counted upon if needed.
"I just play the role that they tell me to play," Gordon said. "If they ask me to go catch passes, I catch passes, but mostly they brought me in for blocking. I can transition anytime they ask me to."
*On Tuesday, Shane Lechler punted a ball that traveled 80 yards in the air. It was kicker Sebastian Janikowski's turn to take center stage Wednesday.
Janikowski lined up for a 64-yard field-goal attempt at the end of practice, with the eyes of his teammates, coaches and friends fixed upon him. The kick sailed through the uprights, to the delight of fans and teammates.
Jackson then backed up Janikowski 5 yards and let him attempt a 69-yarder. The ball appeared to have the distance, but Janikowski said it came up a foot or so short. Janikowski said he drilled a 70-yarder the other day.
"I missed the second one," Janikowski said. "I didn't hit it good."
Jackson said he is comfortable with Janikowski kicking from anywhere on the "plus side" of the field, meaning from 59 yards and closer.
"I've been around four other teams and I've never seen a guy kick a ball like that," Jackson said. "It's not like he's taking a running start. The guy takes two steps and, boom, there goes the ball, it goes through the uprights."
Janikowski's career-best is the 61-yarder he made against the Cleveland Browns in 2009, in the snow. The NFL record is 63 yards — Tom Dempsey in 1970 and Jason Elam in 1998.
*The Raiders have been waiting for one of their four first- and second-year cornerbacks to step up and separate themselves from the pack. Ladies and gentlemen, Jeremy Ware.
On Wednesday, Ware ran stride for stride with rookie receiver Denarius Moore on a fly route and denied Moore an opportunity to make a play on an overthrown pass. He later knocked away a deep pass intended for receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey.
That's the kind of production Jackson is hoping to see from Ware, DeMarcus Van Dyke, Walter McFadden and Chimdi Chekwa, as he seeks reliable options at nickel and dime back.
*Eighteen players missed practice Wednesday, including defensive tackle Richard Seymour, middle linebacker Rolando McClain, Boss, cornerback Chris Johnson and receiver Chaz Schilens.
Jackson said he is confiden that most of those players will be back pretty soon and that the Raiders will be at full strength in time for the regular-season opener Sept. 12.
*The last time the Raiders played the Saints in an exhibition game, Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 14 of 17 passes for 179 yards and two touchdowns in a little more than one quarter of play.
Guess who's coming to town Sunday night? Here comes Mr. Brees and his high-flying offense once again. Jackson said it poses "an unbelievable test" for his cornerbacks.
Raiders defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said forget about how he and his defensive mates played in the first two exhibition games. Sunday night's game will be the litmus test.
"(Brees) gets the ball out of his hands, he makes great decisions with the ball," Kelly said. "They have got people on the outside that can scare you. They have a real complete offense. We'll pretty much know if we're headed in the right direction after Sunday night."
*Quarterback Terrelle Pryor still hasn't signed a contract with the Raiders. Until he does, he isn't allowed to join his teammates in Napa.
Jackson said Pryor will be here in due time and that the focus needs to be on the players who are here right now.
"I'm sure when he walks in this place, everybody will know that he's here," Jackson said. "Again, he's just a piece of the story. The true story that's going on right now is this football team and the chance that we have to be a very good team."
*Finally caught up with veteran receiver Derek Hagan to ask him his thoughts on Jackson crediting part of his success to avoiding the trap of getting caught up in playing video games at night.
"No, I don't play X-box too much," Hagan said. "I do, but there's no reason. We're in training camp, and you shouldn't even be playing video games. You got to get your study time in. This is my job, this is my profession and it's something I love to do. I try to stick what I do best and that's playing football."
Spend a few minutes with Hagan or watch him practice, and it's hard to imagine him not making the roster. In fact, it begs the question, why did another team let him go?
He runs hard, executes precise routes, catches most everything and plays with a confidence missing in some of the younger receivers on the roster. Hagan, 26, is the second-oldest receiver on Oakland's roster, second only to Shaun Bodiford. So, it's likely that he will be the oldest on the team if he makes the 53-man roster.
Hagan says he learned his work ethic from the veteran receivers when he joined the Miami Dolphins in 2007.
"It's just watching other receivers that I've been around in the league," Hagain said. "When I started off as a rookie in Miami, I had Chris Chambers and Marty Booker, just following those guys. Now, they just passed it down to me and just knowing that you got to put in that time and that work just to be a great player. That's something that I definitely try to do."
The other Raiders receivers would do well to follow Hagan's lead.

I am grieved to write that Father Ray Ryland, our columnist for TCA Faith since 2004, passed away on March 20, in Steubenville, Ohio, at the age of 93.
As our columnist, Father Ray brought a truly unique perspective. He was intensely pastoral, firm and clear in the teachings of the Church and at ease remembering his own experiences as a Protestant and Episcopal priest. I recall especially his reminiscences of Protestant professors that he wove seamlessly into his answers and that gave such a unique and even surprising aspect to some dispute over Church teaching.
Paul Thigpen, my predecessor as editor who brought Father Ray into the magazine's fold, described him as "a faithful, engaging, intelligent and articulate teacher of the Faith, competent and experienced in answering questions about all things Catholic."
Born in the small town of Crescent, Okla., he served in the U.S. Navy during World War II in the Pacific and married his college sweetheart, Ruth Silvee, just before the war ended. They were still happily married after 69 years when he died. Raised in the Disciples of Christ Church, he entered Harvard Divinity School in 1946, graduated from Union Theological Seminary in New York City and was ordained a priest in the Episcopal Church in 1950. Thirteen years later, after a long journey that he wrote about in his 2013 memoir, "Drawn from the Shadows into Truth," Father Ray and his family entered the Catholic Church. He went on to earn a doctorate in theology from Marquette University and a law degree from the University of San Diego. In 1983, he became only the second married former Episcopal priest in the United States to be ordained as a Catholic priest under the Pastoral Provision that allowed married clergy converts from Protestantism to be ordained priests.
Over the years, he became a beloved figure in Steubenville, where he taught and was active in campus ministry at Franciscan University, served in several local parishes and was a chaplain for the Coming Home Network and Catholics United for the Faith. He lectured widely and was a prolific writer. His replies to difficult questions were thought provoking and spurred even more questions by readers. I have no doubt that many souls were brought to Christ and the Church by Father Ray's writings and his gentle answers. I had the privilege of working with him for four years, and he was always generous and patient with his editor. I will truly miss him.
Matthew Bunson, D.Min., K.H.S., is editor of The Catholic Answer and The Catholic Almanac and author of more than 40 books. He is a senior fellow of the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology and a professor at the Catholic Distance University. You may e-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.
