CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The Harvard field hockey team will open its 2013 campaign this weekend with a pair of matchups. The Crimson travels to Massachusetts Friday, Sept. 6 before welcoming Bryant to Jordan Field, Sunday, Sept. 8.
About Harvard
The Crimson returns 18 players for the 2013 season. The group of returning letterwinners is highlighted by juniors Noel Painter and Caitlin Rae. Painter, who appeared in all 16 games at forward last year, led the Crimson in goals (5) and points (13), while Rae, Harvard's Most Outstanding Field Hockey Player for the 2012 season, contributed a goal and four assists from the midfield. Rae also competed at Team USA's Women's National Championship in May.

In the Cage
Cynithia Tassopoulos '13 had been the anchor of the Crimson defense for the past four seasons, finishing her collegiate career ranked third on the Harvard all-time charts with 540 career saves. The Crimson will now look to senior Jenn Hatfield, who started and played in two games last season recording 22 saves and sophomore Issy Davies who has yet to see game action, to fill the void.
New Faces
Six freshmen join the squad for the 2013 season; Marissa Balleza, Kyla Cordrey, Sarah Finnemore, Annie Morefield, Sophie van Weede, Elizabeth Warner. This group comes from five states and one from the Netherlands. The rookies comprise of three backs, two forwards and one midfielder.
On the Sidelines
Tjerk van Herwaarden is entering his second season at the helm of the Harvard program, after leaving Maryland where he garnered five national championships in seven seasons as an assistant. In his first season, he led the Crimson to a 3-13 record. He coached two players to the second team All-Ivy League squad and one player to Academic All-Ivy League team. This past June, van Herwaarden was part of the Team USA coaching staff at the International Hockey Federation's World League Semi-Final in London.
Season Opener
Harvard has won nine of the last 11 season openers and is an impressive 26-11-2 (.720) in the first game of the season. Under current head coach Tjerk van Herwaarden the Crimson is 1-0 on opening day after topping Holy Cross, 1-0, last year.
Scouting Massachusetts
The Minutewomen, who are ranked No. 14 in the initial NFHCA Coaches Poll, enter the game with a perfect 3-0 record after winning two games at the Maine Invitational, which included a 3-2 upset over No. 9 Michigan Aug. 31, and taking their home opener against UMass Lowell. Sophomore Brooke Sabia, who leads the way in scoring with four goals, netted the game-winner against the Wolverines. Goalie Sam Carlino has tallied 13 saves in three games.
All-Time Against the Minutewomen
Friday's game marks the fourth time Harvard opens the season against Massachusetts with the Crimson defeating the Minutewomen in 2004 and 2005 before dropping the season opener at Massachusetts in 2007. The Crimson trail the all-time series that dates back to 1980, 5-11-1, and look to snap a five game losing streak against the Minutewomen.
Scouting Bryant
The Bulldogs, which were 6-13 in the 2012 season, opened 2013 with a 1-1 showing last weekend. Bryant dropped its first game to Providence before pulling out a 4-3 overtime victory against Colgate. The Bulldogs are led by Rosie Birth, who posted a hat trick in the win against Colgate, and goalie Megan Hancock, who has made 19 saves in two games. The Bulldogs hit the road for the next six games stopping first in Providence, R.I., on Friday Sept. 6 to take on Brown.
All-Time Against the Bulldogs
Harvard leads the all-time series against Bryant, 4-0. The Crimson defeated the Bulldogs, 4-0, on Sept. 24 last season. In the previous four meetings, the Crimson has outscored the Bulldogs 15-5.
Against Ranked Opponents
Six of Harvard's opponents this season are currently ranked in the NFHCA initial poll, including Princeton (3), Massachusetts (14), Northeastern (15), Boston University (15), Boston College (16) and New Hampshire (20).
Up Next
Following this weekend's matches, the Crimson will travel to Holy Cross to face the Crusaders on Sept. 13 at 7 p.m. Harvard returns to Jordon Field on Sept. 28 at noon to go head-to-head with Penn.

After working in the business field for many years, she went back to college to earn a bachelor of science in Elementary Education.
Eventually, Thelen earned a master of arts degree in Elementary Administration. After substitute teaching in elementary and middle school classrooms, and teaching preschool for many years, Thelen earned a doctorate from Michigan State University in Family and Child Ecology.
Dr. Thelen teaches human growth and development, directs and teaches courses in the Early Childhood Education Program, and supervises early childhood student teachers. Research and educational interests include early childhood education, notably literacy development, and human growth and development across the lifespan.
Dr. Thelen believes that it is important to incorporate service learning into the education experience. Several of her courses include a service learning component, which gives education students experiences with families and agencies in local communities.
"There is no substitute for working with real children, parents, schools and agencies. These experiences enhance preservice teacher learning beyond classroom and book learning."

On A Positive Note: Parkinson's disease didn't stop climber Greg Hatstat
Welcome to On A Positive Note, my new blog that focuses on good news. Today we lead off with an item about how Greg Hatstat fulfilled his dream of climbing a fourteener, despite challenges presented by Parkinson's disease. There's also news about another climber, some birthdays, old friends in new jobs, a wedding and an engagement.
It was 1985 and Greg Hatstat was an active, athletic 32-year-old when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. As the disease progressed, he would often gaze at Longs Peak and wish he could climb it. He tried three times, and with each attempt, foul weather or a physical limitation would interfere.
He finally gave up.
Then in 1999, Hatstat became one of the first Parkinson's disease patients to receive Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) under the care of Dr. Rajeev Kumar at the Colorado Neurological Institute Movement Disorders Center. DBS is not a cure, but it can help control the symptoms.
So much so that at the age of 59, with a 27-year history of Parkinson's disease under his belt, the Parker resident decided to give climbing one more try. This time, his team of coaches and helpers included his doctor.
"Dr. Kumar has been so supportive of me reaching this dream that he even said he would climb it with me," Hatstat explains. Mt. Harvard, near Buena Vista, is a very difficult climb. It's the third-highest peak in Colorado and the fourth-highest in the contiguous United States, rising 4,400 feet in 6.5 miles to a summit of 14,433 feet.
"Greg had some significant challenges," Kumar admits. "He freezes when he walks, as if his feet are stuck to the floor, so hiking something of this magnitude was a significant risk. He took significant safety precautions, which was good. I was worried about him getting back down, but he was way ahead of the rest of us. Walking with poles helped with his freezing, his gait rhythm, and kept him from falling. We also had a rope around him during the most difficult parts of the climb. He did really well, and the whole experience was really inspiring."
In addition to Kumar, Hatstat's fellow climbers were his 20-year-old son, Daniel; his longtime friend and hiking partner, Rick Thompson, a former Marine; two professional guides; and Ron Kubit, president of the CNI board and a member of the team that took the first blind African to the top of Kilimanjaro in 2005. Kubit also walked the Colorado Trail in 2010 and climbed Mt. Elbert with a group of five Iraq and Afghanistan veterans earlier this summer.
"With the right people, the right skills and the right motivation you can overcome even the worst of conditions," Hatstat said. "This wonderful group of people gave me confidence and allowed me to drop all my fears and put my trust in them. With every step came more pain and more difficulty controlling my movements, and yet I felt as though I was being lifted to the top of Mt. Harvard by the collective energy of concern, confidence and encouragement."
Yet another climb
As part of his bar mitzvah celebration, Will Herbst asked family and friends to sponsor his climb of another Colorado fourteener, Mt. Democrat. He donated the $300 that he raised to the Cat Care Society.
Blow out the candles
Happy birthday to Grace Jordan, who is 94 years young; Bonnie Mandarich, whose hubby, David, tossed quite a shindig for her; and Barry Hirschfeld, who celebrated his 70th with a guys' night out for 500 of his nearest and dearest buds.
I do, I do!
Congratulations to Jessica Smith, who exchanged wedding vows with Phil Archuleta on Saturday at Glen Eden Resort in Steamboat Springs. Her parents are Jeff Smith of Kansas City and Jaylene Smith of Denver … You've got your Brangelina (Brad Pitt/Angelina Jolie), your ScarJo (Scarlett Johansson) and your KimK (Kim Kardashian). TomKat (Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes) has gone the way of the wind, but the name game is alive and well. At the engagement party for Auna Jornayvaz and Andrew Wolf, guests could leave hints for a happy marriage on cards that would be delivered to the couple otherwise known as "Aundrew."
What are they up to now?
Denise Plante is now the Denver correspondent for TV's celebrity-centric Extra; we can still enjoy her weekday mornings (with Murphy Huston) on KOSI radio and on KUSA's Colorado and Company … Producer Patti Mustari is leaving 9News to move to Los Angeles and become script supervisor on the new CBS series "Friend Me," starring Christopher Mintz-Plasse ("Superbad") and Nicholas Braun ("10 Things I Hate About You") … Angie Austin has made the switch from TV to radio, broadcasting The Good News weekdays from 4-5 p.m. on KLVZ. She's always on the lookout for good interviews, so if you have something good to report or promote — or if you'd like to become one of the show's sponsors — call the station at 303-433-5500 or email Producer Paul … Tori Labs is leaving the Wildlife Experience Museum, where she had been director of marketing and communications, to join Friendship Bridge, a Denver-based nonprofit that grants microloans to women in rural Guatemala who are working their way toward economic self-sufficiency.

In case you were curious, cole slaw is not named for any fella named Cole. The term comes from the Dutch word "koolsla," a shortening of "koolsalade," which means "cabbage salad." In case you were curious.
This post is about my tragic lack of cole slaw, which would so enhance this already-glorious chicken barbecue. I resisted slaw for many years, and even now I really only enjoy it on a barbecue sandwich. I'm extremely picky about it (surprise, surprise) and that's why you don't see any included on this particular sandwich.
The very best slaw I ever put between my lips comes from the deli in my hometown grocery store. I can't even pinpoint what makes it so marvelous, but I do know that so far, no homemade or store-bought version that I've tried can compare.
If you have a killer cole slaw recipe (minimal mayonnaise, please)(ick), feel free to share! Chicken barbecue is good (especially when the barbecue sauce is sweet and spicy)(I used a honey-chipotle blend), but with the proper cole slaw, it becomes phenomenal.
P.S. Happy birthday, big brother!

who is this cole character?Yum

I always had to tell myself that there was no mayo in those oh-so-creamy slaws. I still can't bear to make it with mayo at home, so I opt for mayo-free tangy slaws instead.

Love Cole on my BBQ. I make a pretty good one on my site, but is does call for Mayo, sorry. Thanks for the info on the word slaw. I guess I really never thought about it but it does make sense!

Mmm yes coleslaw (or potato salad, who am I kidding, I love both) with BBQ chicken is gorgeous. I remember years ago I had a hot dog with coleslaw on it and it was the best hot dog I've ever eaten so if I eat them at home, I always include coleslaw. Go slaw! :P

I love the combo of BBQ sloppy juicy meat and slaw. Mine has mayo, but I often swap out for yogurt.
- September 29, 2008 at 8:39 AM
- Lisa said...
Sounds interesting! Due to my mayo aversion I am no cole slaw expert but I do kind of like the tangy kind. That kind might be good on your chicken bbq, though I'd be inclined to eat it as is, with a little extra of that yummy sounding barbecue sauce.

the creamy slaw well drained from Hannaford is about as close to NC style in the area...my husband a NC native loves it on his bbq pork or bbq chicken sandwiches...it's double chopped, and I always ask them to drain it well when ordering...and then drain it again prior to putting on a sandwich.

- Foodycat said...
See THAT is what I wanted when I ordered pulled pork on Friday! I wanted it rich and succulent like your chicken.
Best coleslaw I've had comes from a Mexican restaurant called Wahaca - it's got a good whack of chipotle in it and it is smoky and spicy and not too creamy.
- September 29, 2008 at 9:02 AM

You should ask them for the recipe! They just might give it to you.
My fave slaw is a nontraditional type: Blue Cheese Cole Slaw. Love it.

I love coleslaw any which way...but I'll bet this particular slaw would be fantastic topping a chicken burger..at least that is what I envision!!!!!!

We like to use Alton Brown's Remoulade recipe for our coleslaw dressing. It uses creme fresh instead of mayo.

That chicken looks amazing! I think a vinegary slaw (no mayo) would be great here.

I love cole slaw, but never on anything! This food purist has to keep her foods separated. Cafeteria style plates are so tempting, since I won't use hubby's granny's depression glass with its fabulous sections!

I am very picky about my cole slaw - I've only had it a time or two where I actually liked it. But I'll take one of those sandwiches in a heart beat!

Mayo free is my preference, had one years ago that was to die for & have been searching for ever since :)

I have two favorite cole slaw recipes: my mom's (home style w/mayo) and one from my aunt (Asian influenced, no mayo). They are polar opposites on the flavor scale, but each wonderfully delicious!

This bbq looks amazing. I need lunch. My favorite coleslaw would have to be (embarrassingly) KFC. I grew up on it as my mom is a KFC lover.

That looks so yummy. One of my all time favorite foods with slaw is a hot dog. There is a hole in the wall burger place, not too far from me, that serves "slaw dogs". The slaw is not like any other I've tasted, but it is wonderful on their Hotdogs!!

When I was pregnant with my daughter many moons ago I craved BBQ sauce, I love BBQed Chicken. At the restaurant we make our own coleslaw and it's very good, I like to put it on turkey sandwiches too!

Love, love, love bbq sandwiches with cole slaw. I like all slaws, but tend to gravitate to the creamy varieties. Oh man, I'm so hungry right now and I fear that only bbq with slaw will do!

I love coleslaw too but, like you, have yet to find a killer homemade slaw recipe. I hope someone shares a great recipe with you, you try it, then share it with the rest of the coleslaw-loving world. ;)
- September 29, 2008 at 10:30 PM
- Colleen said...
I don't like the mayo taste of cole slaw either but this recipe is somehow different. Scale it back to make enough for a single portion and try for yourself.
Killer Cole Slaw Recipe - small batch (4 sandwich-sized portions)
1/2 cup mayo (not salad dressing)
1 T sugar
1 T cider vinegar
1/2 tsp celery seeds
1/2 (scant) tsp mustard
Mix until sugar is melted. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto cole slaw veggies (cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, broccoli), stirring until proper consistency is met. Serve immediately - will become wet if left to sit.

Oh Grace, that chicken barbeque looks superb! I actually love cole slaw and am not at all picky about it. It is really good on a bbq sandwich- this is something I never tried until I moved to Virginia. :) Maybe you should ask your hometown grocery store if they'd share the recipe with you. I bet they would.

- Ingrid said...
Boy, you're a tough cookie. How come you haven't asked for their recipe? Or perhaps you have?
Unfortunately I can't help you. While I've made my own and used the store bought dressing I don't think they are up to your standards. I'm not picky about cole slaw and love them all, so long as there is NO ONION, yuck!
Good luck on your quest and let us know when you find a WINNER.

Only for you dahlink...my very favourite slaw:
1 head cabbage
3 med carrots
2 cloves garlic
3 green onions
1 green pepper
1 c white vinegar
1/2 c sugar (I use a little less)
3/4 c canola oil
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
bring marinade to a boil - throw on veggies and mix - let sit for a while for flavours to marry - voila - lasts about a week in the fridge

i thought that was pulled pork at first glance. it looks so yummy. I have a good coleslaw recipe but not on me at the moment. It has a nice tang — the dressing is made with buttermilk, apple-cider vinegar, a little Tabasco, a little Worcestershire, and a bunch of other stuff. will send it along shortly.

Hey my big bro's bday was on the 29th, yesterday. Too funny. The big 50!
I think two of the magical elements of good slaw is one to first grate the slaw on a box grater because for some reason it tastes better.
The second thing I think (so you r slaw is not runny) is to salt the cabbage and place it in a collander for about thirty minutes. Rinse and squeeze the water out. It will still be crunchy but wont make a runny mess.
Okay and maybe one other thing. Cabbage found in the spring is uch sweeter and more tender.

i'm not so much a fan of the slaw, but i did slightly enjoy some once that was made with mustard instead of mayo. kinda tangy and nice.

Grace this looks yummy as is, but yes, with some slaw, hello?
I actually like a German inspired cole slaw with (among other things) cider vinegar and celery seed. I'll send you the recipe if you like. It too am a proponent of "less mayo - is more."

I always have coleslaw with hot-beef-on rye! Always add lots of caraway seeds and black pepper. Nothing better!! I make mine with a mix of red and green cabbage and it turns the sauce pink - just because pink is my favourite colour!

I had a bad experience with cole slaw as a kid (they used to serve it in the cafeteria in school, all watery and yucky) so it's one of the few "standard" foods I don't eat (along with Spanish Rice which they also served at that school...shudder).

I can't help you with the slaw recipe, I've never made any myself. I did, however, make a kind of cabbage salad with apples and curry powder. It was pretty good. If only I could remember where I put the recipe... :)

Earlier this month I got an email from Paul O'Leary, who is a catcher for the Ottawa Diamondbacks of Tier 1 of the National Capital Baseball League (Canada's largest non-professional league). Tier 1 is the league's top division.
On July 5, the Diamondbacks scored 16 runs in the bottom of the first and won 22-2. They sent 22 batters to the plate in that inning and Justin Cardinal -- yep! -- made all three outs.
O'Leary told me that his leadoff hitter also went 0-for-3 in that inning:
He reached on three errors ... so it may be the only time two batters were 0-for-3 in one inning!

That is the one and only "AIR report #1". According to Bruce Maccabee, the author is Todd Zechel. Robert Hastings included parts of the text page 487 in his UFOs and Nukes and made a passing reference to Zechel's misguided attack against Bruce Maccabee p. 503. It is possible that the feud between crashologists could have led to all sorts of exaggerated claims and I would not take anything any of them wrote for granted without independent corroboration.

http://www.theufochronicles.com/2009/04 ... pings.htmlAccording to Moore, Bennewitz had become a target for this disinformation and harassment after he informed OSI, in October 1980, that he had photographed UFOs over the Manzano [Nuclear] Weapons Storage Area, located just east of Kirtland AFB, on several occasions during the previous 15 months. Soon-to-be-released evidence, collected and analyzed by another researcher, will prove that this was indeed true.
Are they always this paranoid, or are they constantly arguing with allies and foes alike?

I have a 1995 k75 with 20k miles, with ABS. After noticing a leak from the master cylinder I removed it and honed it out with 0000 steel wool. Installed it and it seemed to be ok. I have been unable to bleed or pressurize the system even when using a Harbour Freight bleeder. At this point I think I've introduced air into the ABS. There is no pressure / resistance on the pedal. I was even thinking of getting rid of the ABS because I know it would probably be easier to get this brake going again. Is the lack of pressure due to a still bad master cylinder ?
Should I buy a new master cylinder and try that and if that doesn't work then take it to a dealer.
Any ideas?

I feel like it's cheating a bit to return from a week of no posting with nothing but fluff, but I'm still coming down from vacation mode, so fluff is what you shall get.
And this week's fluff will, naturally, be Vegas-themed.
So. As Penn Jillette is fond of saying, Vegas is "a town built on bad math." That's probably why I like it so much; it feels like home. But I realized something the other day: it's also a town built on natural egoism and magical thinking. Bad math only gets you halfway there. For an entire city — one with more hotel rooms on a 3-and-a-half-mile stretch of road than there are in any other city in the world — to thrive the way it does on the backs of gambling tourists, you need a combination of bad math and each individual's deep-down belief that no matter what the odds are, s/he will be the special one who hits the jackpot. Which kinda reminds me of something else, come to think of it. Hmm.
I, of course, fancy myself above all this. I play slot machines for 5 minutes at a time, when I'm on my way to do other stuff, and I play pretty damn conservatively. I plan on losing everything I put into the slots, which is usually not much, and I don't even know how to play any other casino games. Before we left, people kept asking why we like Vegas so much if we're not big gamblers, and the best answer I could come up with was, "It's really shiny." I like neon lights and bright colors and enormous chandeliers and reflective marble and redonkulous swimming pools and indoor waterfalls and the world's largest LED display and all the Christmas decorations of downtown Chicago, times 100. And on top of that, I like terrible classic rock and the bleep-bloop-ka-ching noises of casinos and the din of a million different conversations going on at once. Somehow, while a simple trip to Ikea is an ADD nightmare for me, Vegas delights me by overloading every damn one of my senses completely. I can stand still in one spot and find a couple dozen different things available to see, hear, smell, taste*, and touch. (And drink.) All that — plus amazing shows** and good food and no pressure whatsoever to be having a homey family Christmas — is plenty to keep me going back.
And yet, I've got a gambling story. On Christmas day, I was fucking on fire at the slots. I'd sit down just long enough to have a smoke, put $5 in with the full expectation of losing it, and walk away with $30. Or $40 or $60. All day, I kept winning far more than I lost, and by the end of the day, I was up $120 — my ticket to Spamalot and a pre-show martini were paid for! Merry Christmas!
Can you see what's coming here? Naturally, I got cocky. About my ability to play the slots. You know, those machines that require zero skill whatsoever and are designed expressly to take your money? Yeah. I started thinking I was really good at them. I obviously had some natural, quasi-psychic talent for picking ones that would pay out, on top of the good sense to bet very little and cash out every time I won back more than I'd put in. I had a system.
The next day, Al woke up with a horrid man cold and told me to go have fun without him. (I must say, he did sound and look absolutely awful — still does, actually — and since it happened halfway through our vacation, the boy earned at least one heartfelt "Poor little bunny.") Since we were staying downtown, I had two options. 1) Spend a bundle on a cab to the Strip, where I would then spend another bundle on lunch (everything on the Strip, including sandwiches, is a gazillion times more expensive than downtown, hence our decision to stay downtown), probably go shopping and spend another bundle on clothes I don't need, maybe ride the roller coaster at New York New York, which would doubtless be another bundle, and then get a cab back. Or 2) stay downtown — which has absolutely nothing but casino hotels, cheap food and drink, and tacky souvenir shops — and put a lot more money than usual into the slots.
Since I'd won so much the day before and probably would have spent just about that much hanging out on the Strip, I decided to go with option 2. At first, I was only going to put in $20 and see what happened. What happened was, I lost $20. So then I said all right, I've got a day to kill, and I'm still up $100, so fuck it. I will keep playing with that $100, and quit when I've either lost it all or –MUCH more likely, natch! — doubled it.
Go ahead and guess what happened.
That "system" I had for being "good" at slots? Was strictly a 24-hour fluke. The following day, I had no luck whatsoever, and I lost that $120 with sickening speed, without even a new top or a roller coaster ride or a full belly to show for it. And of course, the more I lost, the more desperate I was to keep putting money into the damn machines, because my luck had to change some time, right? I couldn't lose all day, right? Yeah. I was a total Vegas cliche — except perhaps for the part where I actually did stop after losing the $120 I'd set as my limit.
But you know, as brutal as it was to watch all that money go down the drain (in nickels and quarters, no less) it was a really good lesson for me. Not about gambling — intellectually, I know damn well the casinos couldn't afford all the shiny lights and redonkulous swimming pools if most people didn't lose their shirts — but about my own continued vulnerability to magical thinking. If I'd stopped playing after the Christmas day winning streak, I seriously would have gone home believing I have some sort of mystical slot luck that normal people don't have. SLOT LUCK, y'all. Not poker or blackjack skill, slot luck. Because, you know, I am just that goddamned special.
And it certainly bears repeating: that was very much how I felt a year out from my first major diet, when I was still maintaining a 65-lb. weight loss. Sure, I knew the statistics said that 5 years was the magic number, but that only meant I had to do what I'd already done 4 more times! And since I'd already kept it off for a year, I'd clearly made that all-important lifestyle change that would lead to permanent thinness! I would be in the 5% who kept it off forever! Because I was just that goddamned special.
And the worst part of that was, unlike my slot streak, I didn't think good luck was the driving force of my "success." I thought it was effort, skill, sacrifice. I thought it was hard work and determination. I thought I had taken control of my body and would never let myself get fat again, like those chumps who eventually gained it all back. I thought it was all up to me, and I had a system.
Yeah. And I totally have a natural gift for playing the slots, too.
Aaaaanyway. Back to the fluffiness. Shapelings, I want to hear your stories about luck, good or bad. Have you ever won something big? Lost something? Stumbled onto a terrific opportunity? Stumbled out of one? If luck was involved one way or another, tell us all about it.
As for me, I did have one tremendous stroke of luck in Vegas: I did not get Al's cold, and so far (knock wood) don't see any suggestion that I will get it. Thank the fates, and the makers of Airborne, for that. It's a Christmas miracle.
* I actually ate, for the sole purpose of blogging about it, a deep-fried Twinkie. Do you see what I do for you guys? It was, shockingly, not as gross as it could have been — because they batter the whole thing, so the outside was just like a funnel cake. And I enjoy the funnel cakes. But the Twinkie part? Was pretty fucking nasty. Also, they put so much powdered sugar on top, I was seriously coated in it, head to toe, by the time I gave up on the thing halfway through. (Which might have had something to do with standing in the street, eating it with my hands, drunk off my ass. Though it seems to me that's the only acceptable way to eat a deep-fried Twinkie.) Neither Al nor I had a camera with us at that point, which is a shame, because that might have been the greatest Stereotypical Fat Girl moment of my entire life: standing on Fremont Street, stuffing a deep-fried Twinkie in my face, with a light dusting of powdered sugar all over my body. I don't think I will ever top that.
** Cirque du Soleil's KA — which I ended up seeing with one of my high school BFFs, who lives in Vegas, because Poor Little Bunny was down for the count at that point — was fucking MINDBLOWING. Not only worth every penny, but worth at least twice as much as we paid for it. And that's the kind of thing that makes Vegas awesome even if you're not a gambler. As aforementioned HSBFF — who lived in Manhattan for a decade — said, you can go to Broadway and fight the crowds in Times Square and see an impressive production in a very nice theatre, or you can go to Vegas and see a fucking SHOW. If any Shapelings are headed out that way, I highly recommend KA (though I will warn you there's a female character in a fat suit who's portrayed as being clumsier than the others, which naturally annoyed the shit out of me, but the rest was so friggin' good, even I was willing to overlook that).

Reviews (6)
"Works for my dogs"
Works great. I have three dogs on it. It kills fleas and their eggs
"Not good"
This product is not worth the money I spent. I put it on my dog and it has done nothing. I will NOT recommend this product to anyone
"Liberty 50 plus"
Don't bother to buy, didn't work.
"Didn't work!"
I had seen a couple of fleas on my smaller dogs and bought this hoping a different formulation would help - but it didn't seem to make a difference.
"Not Impressed"
After using Frontline Plus with no results we decided to try Liberty. Unfortunately even after applying this product our dogs are still covered in fleas. I personally will not be repurchasing this product.
My dogs were infested, I tried Advantage, Frontline and First Shield. I even applied products every 2 weeks and still had problems. Used Liberty just once and wow what a difference! It worked great and having a multi-large dog family, the price was awesome too!

So far on our journey we've visited an Air Force base (Yakota AB), an army post (Camp Zama) and a naval base (Yokosuka Naval Base). Although they're all run with the military precision we've come to expect on this tour, they each had their own distinct feel, as if each branch of service has its own culture. Today, we visited yet another location in the picture puzzle that makes up the U.S. military presence in Japan. MCAS Iwakuni, located in southern Japan, is a small marine base with about 5,000 people (including families). We arrived after visiting Hiroshima's Peace Park, a somber and sobering experience right in the heart of the city.
Being at Hiroshima's ground zero on December 6 (just a few days before the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor), was a fascinating addition to the visit. Japanese students amassed in the park with their teachers and tour guides, reading about the A-bomb blast, and initially I worried if our presence would be unwelcome. In fact, the Japanese students cheered when they saw the Marlins players arrive, scrambling to take photos with them and the Mermaids while displaying peace signs and enormous, happy grins.
After visiting the memorial, we traveled to MCAS Iwakuni, where we met some of the warmest and most friendly people we've come across to date. We participated in physical training (aka physical torture – ha!) with Marine Wing Support Squadron 171, where we stretched, did some calisthenics and ran to some great chants, including one they created especially for the Marlins! Then we went on to Combat Logistics Company 36, where we learned about the vehicles and plethora of hi-tech equipment it takes to keep the U.S. Marine Corps up and running in the Pacific region. After that we were on to the Provost Marshall's Office where we were amazed at the skill and patience that goes into training military K9 dogs. The handlers each showed us what their dogs could do, while helping us understand their goal is never to have to employ their dog as a means of force unnecessarily. Next up was a meet and greet with all the members of MWSS-171, where we met some very young marines (some as young as 19) who had assisted with the relief efforts in Japan after the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami took place, often exposing themselves to high levels of radiation…but all proud to have served and helped the Japanese people after the disaster.
Last, but certainly not least, was VMFA 242, a marine fighter attack unit that flies F-18s. We got a briefing on the unit's mission before stepping out to view the planes in the hangar and on the flight line. What a sight to behold! After donning a helmet and ear protection we were allowed into the cockpit for an explanation of the tools and equipment a pilot has within reach during a flight.
Each of these groups of marines couldn't have been more gracious or more excited to see the Miami Marlins players and the Marlins Mermaids. They signed autographs, posed for pictures and chatted with the men and women while we learned more about where they call home, how long they've been in Japan, and how much they love America's favorite pastime. There were definitely some strong loyalties to their hometown baseball teams, but it was all in good fun, and everyone enjoyed the visit immensely.
After all this excitement, Stanton, Hayes and Petersen hosted a baseball clinic while Ashley, Jackie and Stephanie taught a dance clinic for children of the marines stationed at Iwakuni. The looks on the kids faces while they got pointers on throwing and catching or learned a dance from the Mermaids was absolutely priceless.
But the highlight of the day for me came shortly after, when the marines all gathered to play a softball game at Penny Lake Field. We weren't quite sure what to expect from the game, but when many of the marines showed up in full uniforms, we knew we were in for a treat. Master Sergeant Roy Whiteney, part of MWSS-171, introduced us to the group, and Stanton, Hayes and Petersen served as coaches for a softball game I will never forget. These marines taunted and laughed, cajoled and supported their teammates and opponents through seven innings of softball, and the Marlins players even took a few swings while the opposing teams heckled. From the marines on the field to the friends, families and co-workers in the stands, the feeling of family and camaraderie was palpable throughout the entire game.
I've never before felt that close to family with a group of total strangers, but by the time we left Iwakuni this morning I think we were honorary members. These marines embraced us with open arms, hugged us and thanked us for coming, and they couldn't have been more appreciative of the effort made by the Marlins to come halfway around the world to visit them. I have family members who have served in every branch of service, but today I feel like an honorary marine. Thank you, MCAS Iwakuni, for your kindness and hospitality. It was an honor to meet each and every one of you, and thank you for your service and sacrifice. Semper Fi!

In the special case of affine schemes, there is an exercise on Hartshorne saying that when Spec A is a Noetherian topological space A may not be a Noetherian ring. While it is easy to find an example for that when A has nilpotent elements, e.g. $A=k[x_1,...,x_i,...]/(X_1, x_2^2,...,x_i^i,...).$ It is not clear to me that whether we could still find a counter example when A is a domain. In the general case, I am asking for a reduced scheme, if the underlying topological space is Noetherian, is the scheme necessarily a Noetherian scheme?
My guess would be no, consider the direct limit of the series of localizations,
$$\underline{lim}\ k[x^{1\over 2^n}]_{(x^{1\over 2^n})}$$
each process within the limit is a one dimension scheme, and I think the limit is also a one dimension scheme. (In general, will dimension necessarily be held constant, non increasing or non decreasing in a limit process? or none of the above?). However, it is not hard to see the limit ring is not a Noetherian ring.

Bride or Grooms Name:
Venue: New Jersey War Memorial, Trenton, NJ
James: I have known Farrah since 1997. We met while she was working as a bartender at this new restaurant in downtown Trenton. I remember thinking two things: That she was gorgeous, and that it was smart for the owner to have this beautiful woman serving drinks, because suddenly I wanted a drink, and I don't even drink!
We quickly became friends. Although I always thought she was beautiful, I always said she was not my type. I would see her out and we would talk and laugh, but we rarely met on purpose.
Farrah: Although I thought that James was a really nice guy, I really didn't think that he was my type either.
James: A year later, I ran into Farrah again and she told me she was just downsized by her company and was looking for work. I asked her to forward me her resume and promised that I'd shop it to a few friends. I went away for a few days vacation, and upon returning, I found out that Farrah had turned down several job offers. I called her to ask why she hadn't taken an offer given the difficulty of finding jobs at that time. She told that she was just around the corner, and asked to stop by to discuss her situation. So, we started out talking about why she was not interested in the positions, and then we ended up very casually laughing and talking about restaurants, food, and movies for hours.
Farrah: We decided to go out just as friends first, and ever since then we have been together. I think we were too quick to judge each other initially, but once we got to know the each other, we realized that we really had more in common than we had first thought.
James: I very casually invited her to join me for dinner at a new restaurant that I was dying to try. She agreed. From that night on, we were inseparable. I finally asked the question… "Are we dating?" I knew it was only a matter of time before we would make it official. I never thought I would get married because I couldn't imagine living with someone for the rest of my life. Then, suddenly, I realized I couldn't imagine living without Farrah.
Once I decided to purchase a ring, I decided that it would be best if Farrah came with me to pick out her ring. (I realized that picking the ring was difficult and I was clearly not qualified to make that decision on my own.) Of course, Farrah couldn't just get one of the rings that were there in the glass box, but I just kept thinking: "I can't afford a custom-made ring!" Finally, after a headache, and seeing my life savings passing before my eyes, we headed back to Trenton.
The call came on Dec. 23rd that the ring was ready. I had no intention of proposing to Farrah on Christmas, so I didn't go to pick it up until December 31st. I didn't want to ask on a typical day like Christmas or New Year's, so picked up the ring with the intention of holding on to it for another week or so. I got back to Trenton and went to Farrah's house with no intention of giving her the ring until the following weekend.
Farrah: It was December 31, New Year's Eve. I had been home all day watching a Law & Order marathon, and I looked a mess: my hair was all over my head, I had stains on my pajamas, and I can't remember if I had showered or not, so I was trying to get myself together because James and I had plans for dinner that evening.
James: She opened the door to her apartment and quickly turned around and headed back to her bedroom, where she had been feverishly cleaning. Farrah is always stylish and very fashion-conscious, but that night she was a mess. It was right then, as she was in her closet, cleaning, that I decided to propose. Sure, I hadn't planned on doing it that day. But Farrah is always so put together, that I thought it'd be funny and unexpected to do it at that moment.
Farrah: I knew that it was coming because, obviously, I had picked out my ring. I was putting my shoes away in my shoe closet and James asked me to come over, and said, "Farrah, I need to ask you something…" I was pretty annoyed at the moment, so I told him that whatever he has to say to me he can say to my back while I'm cleaning. Then I felt a thud on the floor and heard James ask "Farrah will you marry me?" I was frozen, I couldn't move, when I turned around James was on one knee and once I stopped crying and hyper-ventilating I said "YES!" I didn't want some fancy, embarrassing public proposal - I had wanted it to just be the two of us and it was. I couldn't imagine it any other way.
James: My proposal was perfect. I wouldn't change any part of it. It was classic Farrah and James.
Farrah: I planned the entire wedding. I had a vision and I felt like I was the only that could really make it a reality. I did hire a wedding coordinator towards the end just to make sure everything went smoothly on the day.
James: We were married at the War Memorial in Trenton, NJ. We had our ceremony on the front stairs and our reception in the grand ballroom, and the theater stage was our dance floor.
Farrah: I loved our wedding. The best part of the wedding would have to be the ballroom. We had a candle-lit reception. We draped the entire ballroom in white linens. As soon as the doors opened for me to walk down the aisle it took all I had to give it my all not to break down crying. I had already started crying in the elevator I was a ball of emotions all day long. I just had to pull it together so I could make it down the aisle.
James: It was a pretty dramatic entrance: she had to come down 50 feet of stairs. These large doors opened, and there was Farrah at the top of the stairs. It was just a beautiful sight and that's when it hit me: I'm marrying the most beautiful girl in the world (and, hey, it's a pretty nice wedding). The ceremony was outside just as it was getting dark and all the stairs and aisles were lit with candles. I'll never forget seeing Farrah at the top of those stairs, and the moment we exited the ceremony as husband and wife.
Farrah: The theme for the reception was 'urban lounge'. We wanted the reception to be one giant party. We had adults only, and it was just a huge celebration that went until 1:00 AM. We hoped that once our guests hit the dance floor, they'd never leave.
James: We have our dream home now. We want to pursue our careers and continue to grow our marriage. We are looking forward to what the future has in store for us.

Sanford News Guest Columnist
As a student in an Extended Learning Opportunity who is mentoring with Sanford's animal control officer (ACO), Lauren Masellas, I've learned that being an ACO is fun and exciting, but is also challenging. An ACO's work is similar to a police officer's and taken just as seriously. Just like a police officer, there are different types of days that occur for an ACO. You never know what your days are going to look like. This is one of the reasons why an ACO is expected to be prepared with the equipment and skills that he or she needs to do their job right.
Animal control officers begin their day by stopping at the police station to gear up and check their log-in screens to view calls that are pending from the day before. A call is a situation that was reported, that needs to be addressed or dealt with. Any call that is reported is sent through dispatch to the officer who should handle it. Once an officer receives a call, he or she relocates to the issue. When an officer has arrived at a call, they let dispatch know. Once dispatch is informed, they know that the officer is handling the situation; therefore, if another call comes in for that officer while they are addressing a call, it will pend until the first call they were dealing with is handled.
The next step of an ACO is to address the issue that was reported. When Lauren and I arrive at a call, we address the issue by explaining why we are present, notifying the individual of the issue that was reported, and educating them on what is considered to be the law. We also give them a handout related to their situation, which states ideas and suggestions. We find a handout related to our call's situation ahead of time, so that it can be read and looked over, and hopefully after the handout is read, the situation is now understandable to the reader and is on its way to being resolved.
When no one is home, Lauren and I leave a handout related to the situation, just as we would if the owners were home. We also include a notice stating our arrival and a call-back number. After we have successfully completed a call, we write a short report that details the situation. Then, we're off to our next call!
An ACO's day can never be determined. Anything can happen when on duty. Sometimes, as an ACO, you have to remove animals from homes and bring them to shelters, or you may have to issue a summons, bring someone to court, or collect stray animals, and more. During one of my ride-alongs with Lauren, we received a call in which one man's chickens were crossing over into another man's yard and eating his garden. It wasn't the first chicken complaint from his neighbors, so we had to file a report. Another call involved a woman who was walking and encountered a neighborhood dog that was loose. The dog ended up running after the woman and nipped her on the leg. Of course, we had to report the dog bite, and the dog wasn't properly up to date on its vaccinations.
Being an ACO isn't an easy job; it takes skill, knowledge, patience, and determination. When you're an ACO, your job has different levels of situations that you're going to encounter and handle. It could be as simple as chickens eating a garden or as serious as a dog bite. You never know, but there's always a way to solve the problems that you face during any job.

Abstract: This paper examines an early modern contribution to the literature on stewardship accounting, the Tratado de Cuentas or Treatise on Accounts, by Diego del Castillo, a sixteenth-century Spanish jurist.
The delegation of authority and the stewardship function have been the subject of written comment for centuries. It is the intent of this paper to explore the accounting implications of an early modern contribution to this body of work, the Tratado de Cuentas or Treatise on Accounts written by Diego del Castillo, a sixteenth-century Spanish jurist. [Del Castillo, 1522].
Despite its preeminence in politics, commerce and culture during the sixteenth century, Spain lagged behind most other European powers in its contribution to the literature on double-entry book-keeping. Indeed, by 1590 when the first major native work on the subject — Solóranzo's Libro de caxa y manuel de cuentas — ap-peared, Italian, German, Flemish, English, Dutch, French and Yugoslav books on the newest system already had a wide audience [Hernández Esteve, 1983, 139-40]. Although Spanish authors largely neglected the double-entry system for most of the sixteenth century, a number of indigenous works on pre double-entry techniques and other accounting usages appeared at this time. The earliest of these texts was the Tratado de Cuentas.
We know relatively little about the author of the Treatise other than a few biographical details. A native of Molina de Aragon in the province of Guadalajara, Diego del Castillo began the study of law in 1515 and acquired the doctorate six years later. He ap-parently returned at some time in his career to his native city to write, sending his completed manuscripts away to printers in various cities for publication. The date of his death is unknown, but it is thought to be around 1551 [Hernández Esteve, 1981, p. 108].

Louis Daignault (ISN)
July 7, 2013, OSAKA, Japan, July 7, 2013 (ISN) – Canada has advanced to the FIVB World League men's volleyball finals for the first time after a dramatic five set victory over Japan (25-23, 23-25, 25-27, 25-18, 15-7) in their last preliminary round match.
It was a sixth consecutive win for the Canadians (8-2) and they will be one of six countries in Mar del Plata, Argentina, for the finals July 17-21.
"We reached our big goal for this season," said Canada's head coach Glenn Hoag of Gatineau, Que. "It's easy to say but a lot harder to do. This is a big step for us. The guys worked hard and improved through the process. They never flinched under the pressure today. I was really impressed."
Dallas Soonias of Red Deer, Alta., led the Canadian attack with 24 points while Rudy Verhoeff of Calgary and Gord Perrin of Creston, B.C., added 18 each.
"The stress level was pretty high," said Canadian team captain Fred Winters. "When we fell behind 1-2 in sets we were aware that we could potentially squander our chance to be in the final. But we knew Japan couldn't keep that pace and in the end we got them."
The 24th FIVB World League, which offers $5.7 million in prize money, features 18 teams split into three pools of six that compete in a five-round, 10-match format.
The top two teams from Group A and B also advance to the six-team finals, along with host Argentina. The other two groups conclude their preliminary rounds next weekend.
Canada's World League roster for matches July 6-7 in Osaka, Japan.
Players: Dustin Schneider, Brandon, Man.; Josh Howatson, Victoria; Louis-Pierre Mainville, Notre-Dame-de-l'Ile Perrot, Que.; Dallas Soonias, Red Deer, Alta.; Blair Bann, Edmonton; Fred Winters, Victoria; Gord Perrin, Creston, B.C.; Toon Van Lankvelt, River, Man.; Dan Lewis, Oakville, Ont.; Jason Derocco, East St. Paul, Man.; Rudy Verhoeff, Calgary; Justin Duff, Winnipeg; Adam Simac, Ottawa; Graham Vigrass, Calgary.

While the PTC offers $0.22/kWh for the first ten years of a project, the ITC offers 30% of a project's installed capital costs. Although any US wind developer with a qualifying project may opt for either credit, the ITC typically has distinct advantages for offshore and community-based plants.
In general, the distinction is based on project capacity versus cost. "You'd probably do modelling in order to determine which credit works best," said Greg Jenner, a partner at law firm Stoel Rives. "If you have low costs and high capacity, then you're naturally going to lean towards the PTC."
No offshore history
While offshore projects are routinely more costly than utility-scale onshore projects, their overall US economics are unproven.
"The production, operation and maintenance history of offshore can't be assessed yet in the United States because we have no operating history," said Jim Lanard, president of the Offshore Wind Development Coalition. "Hence, the ITC provides a significant value over the PTC."
Lanard expects two significant offshore projects to qualify for the ITC under the January extension - Cape Wind off the Massachusetts coast at roughly 420MW and Deepwater Wind's 30MW pilot project off Rhode Island.
Community projects, meanwhile, are usually small and built without economies of scale. Also, they are often sited near the ownership community rather than in the windiest locations.
"The ITC extension means people are still in business," said Lisa Daniels, executive director of community-wind advocacy Windustry.

James Moody, a jazz saxophonist and flutist whose improvised solo on a recording of the song "I'm in the Mood for Love" became a jazz classic, died Thursday in San Diego, where he had lived in recent years. He was 85 and had pancreatic cancer.
His death was confirmed by a spokeswoman for the San Diego Hospice.
The recording, made in Stockholm in 1949, became a rare jazz hit as an instrumental. When singer King Pleasure recorded Eddie Jefferson's lyrics for Moody's improvisation in 1954, it became a cross-genre hit, subsequently recorded by singers ranging from Van Morrison, George Benson and Aretha Franklin to Tito Puente and Amy Winehouse. Moody, himself, frequently sang the version with lyrics in his live performances.
An earlier online version of this article said singer King Pleasure wrote and recorded lyrics for James Moody's improvisation of "I'm in the Mood for Love" and that the recording was made in 1952. Eddie Jefferson wrote the lyrics and Pleasure recorded them in 1954.
The original improvisation was recorded on alto saxophone, an instrument Moody had not been playing at the time.
"Up to this point, I had been playing strictly tenor saxophone," he told Times jazz writer Leonard Feather in 1988. "At one session, I noticed that Lars Gullin, the Swedish saxophonist, had an alto sax lying around. I said, 'Do you mind if I try it out?' "
Moody did not initially expect to record with the alto, however, and the song came to life only as a spontaneous, last-minute addition to the session.
"The producer decided we needed an extra tune," he recalled. "But [he] didn't have any music prepared. I suggested making 'I'm in the Mood for Love,' and we went ahead and did it, in one take, with me playing this beat-up alto saxophone. Well, you know what happened."
Universally called by his last name by friends and fans alike, Moody was warm and amiable, invariably greeting acquaintances with a hug and a kiss on the cheek. The same qualities were present in his instrumental playing, as well, which matured in sync with the arrival of bebop in the mid-'40s. Quickly grasping the complexities of the new style, with its extended harmonies and shifting rhythms, Moody added an appealing melodic flow to his improvised solos, expressed in instrumental timbres approaching the qualities of the human voice.
"Over the years, Moody has become so free — not in a random fashion, but a scientific freedom — that he can do anything he wants with the saxophone," Moody's contemporary, saxophonist Jimmy Heath, told Down Beat magazine's Ted Panken. "He has true knowledge. He is in complete control."
Feather, reviewing a Moody performance for The Times in 1972, agreed. "Moody brings to his tenor saxophone an immense sound," he wrote. "Relying on the natural tone quality....he offers hard-hitting, stimulating jazz, rooted in the idiom fathered by [ Charlie] Parker and [ Dizzy] Gillespie."
Like his lifelong friend and mentor, trumpeter Gillespie, Moody was able to find a convincing balance between entertainment and art — a balance that eluded many of his contemporaries. In any given set, he would frequently juxtapose long, inventive improvisations against his witty vocal renderings of
then switch to a humorous paraphrase of "Pennies From Heaven" titled "Benny's From Heaven," topped off with another briskly exploratory solo.
Moody's easygoing manner, wry humor and musical versatility served him well in a career in which he moved deftly from alto and tenor saxophones to clarinet and flute. His rich resume included — in addition to his continuing jazz performances with small groups and big bands — stints in which he backed the likes of Elvis Presley, Redd Foxx, Liberace and the Osmonds.
In 2005, he added an unusual sidebar to his busy career when he made a cameo appearance in the Clint Eastwood-directed film, "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil," as a porter in a law office who walks an imaginary dog. Moody frequently joked about the fact that he only had one line to say: "Yessir. Patrick do like his morning walk."
The affection with which Moody was viewed by musicians, celebrities and fans was on full display in several musical parties celebrating his milestone birthdays. His 75th anniversary, which took place at New York City's Blue Note jazz club, was released as a live recording titled "Moody's Birthday."
"I think you're looking at a man who knows love and knows how to accept it and give it without hiding, without treating it as if it was some sort of weakness," Bill Cosby, who hosted Moody's 80th birthday celebration concert at Walt Disney Concert Hall, said in an interview with the Copley News Service. Moody "has taught me integrity, how to express love for your fellow human beings, and how to combine and contain manhood and maturity."
James Moody was born March 26, 1925, in Savannah, Ga., and was raised in Reading, Pa., and Newark, N.J. His father was a trumpeter, his mother a dedicated jazz fan.
"My mother loved jazz," he told Calvin Wilson in the St. Louis Post Dispatch. "She had records by Chick Webb, Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie and Jimmy Lunceford, and I heard those records playing at home. I'm thankful for that, because she could've been a doo-wop person, and that would have been a drag."
Moody was born with a hearing defect in his left ear. Initially undiagnosed, it made it difficult for him to hear questions in class. Because of his poor grades, he was sent to a school for retarded children. The malady was properly treated when he entered high school in Newark, where his grades improved and he began to play the alto saxophone, a gift from an uncle.
After serving in the Army Air Forces from 1943 to '46, Moody joined Gillespie's band and made his own first recording, "James Moody and His Bebop Men." He moved to Europe in the late '40s, remaining there until 1951, performing with Miles Davis and others, and recording "I'm in the Mood for Love."
Settling in New York City in the early '50s, he led various ensembles — including a septet that played jazz-influenced rhythm & blues — made a series of recordings for Argo, and worked with Gillespie, an association that would continue intermittently until Gillespie's death in 1993. A brief period working with Las Vegas show bands in the '70s was followed by a return to jazz and the leadership of his numerous ensembles. In the late '80s, he was a founding member of Dizzy Gillespie's United Nation Orchestra.
Moody, a multiple Grammy nominee, was chosen an NEA Jazz Master in 1998.
Survivors include his wife of 21 years, Linda; a brother, Lou Watters; a daughter, Michelle Bagdanove; sons Patrick, Regan and Danny McGowan; four grandchildren and one great grandson.

There's no fear and loathing in Las Vegas about the Broncos.
Two days after the draft, the wiseguys see the Broncos as an even more secure lock to win the AFC West.
The Las Vegas Hilton, operator of the world's largest sports book, lists the Broncos as 7-to-2 favorites to claim their fourth consecutive division title. Denver has the best odds of any predicted division winner. Trailing the Broncos in the West are the San Diego Chargers (5-to-1), Kansas City Chiefs (5-to-1) and Oakland Raiders (30-to-1).
Bovada.net released its latest Super Bowl-winning odds, with the defending champion Seattle Seahawks tops at 6-to-1, followed by the Broncos at 7-to-1. No team has lost the Super Bowl and won the next year since 1973. It has provided motivation during offseason workouts, with players mentioning "35" in final reps as a reminder of their deficit in their 43-8 loss.
Broncos receiver Cody Latimer has 18-to-1 odds to win NFL offensive rookie of the year. Denver is bullish on the receiver because of his 6-foot-2, 215-pound frame, blocking ability and good hands.
"It's really good value where they got him in the second round," ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay said Monday. "He's one of the more underrated. He can contort his body, make tough catches. I watched coach copy tape of five of his games and didn't see the ball hit the ground."
Latimer will get a chance to compete for a starting job, although playing time could hinge on how established slot receivers Wes Welker and Emmanuel Sanders are deployed.
Another Julius?
North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron skyrocketed up draft boards over the past month. With projections slotting him for the 17th pick with the Baltimore Ravens, Ebron went to the Detroit Lions with the 10th selection. He is expected to make a strong Lions offense dynamic, drawing comparisons to Broncos Pro Bowl tight end Julius Thomas.
"It's gratifying to know that you're somebody that people see as somebody that is a leader at their position," Thomas said. "Now you don't want it to be something that just happened one year. You want it to be something that you're known for over time."
As the signing of the undrafted free agents becomes official, the Broncos must shave their roster. Safety Charles Mitchell was waived Monday.

An article in Entrepreneur magazine this summer caught my eye with the headline "Timing is everything." I liked the secondary heading even better: "A record-high stock market exposes the suckers. Don't be one of them."
By this time I was smiling, and of course, interested in reading on. The article was written by J.D. Roth, who founded a finance blog at getrichslowly.org and authored a personal finance book. I also find the website address worth noting. While marketing is not a means to get rich, the word "slowly" has merit. Great marketers focus on building a strong weighted average price for their production over time.
In this article Roth emphasizes the old mantra "buy low, sell high" – which is advice everyone has heard, though not necessarily followed. Case in point: Roth notes that with the stock market climbing, many who sat on the sidelines the last few years are getting back in and doing just the opposite – buying high. Roth minces no words in his article, saying: "Wall Street has a word for these people: suckers."
So why do people not follow the advice that's been around forever? In a word, it's emotion.
I have written often about the need to avoid emotion in your marketing. While it's easier said than done, once you learn to be disciplined and not allow emotion to influence your decisions, your marketing can go to the next level.
Roth puts it this way: To make money in the market, remove the human element from the equation. He provides several examples in his article on ways to remove the "human element" that apply to marketing. Here are two that I particularly liked:
Don't Follow. He says, "If you do what everyone else is doing, you're likely to get burned." I encourage you to be the contrarian he's talking about. When everyone is bullish, find a reason to be bearish – without going to extremes.
All the time we get asked what the consensus is among producers, are they selling or not? If we say that everyone wants to sell, they respond by saying they want to sell too. That's the worst way to reach a decision. If you find everyone is selling corn, it's probably time for you to buy.
In most years, corn producers are not as far sold as they hoped to be by summer. As prices continue to slide, they hope for a rebound and begin building a consensus as to why prices can bounce back. A contrarian might sell into that weakness – rather than sell later, after prices have gone down long and far.
Consider this additional potential: When prices are weakest, your neighbor is hesitant to upgrade equipment, and rents are attractive, those who did a great job of marketing can take advantage of lower rents and sales on equipment.
Stick With It. The market will go through dramatic swings; history has shown us that. Emotionally you must be prepared for those swings. Be ready by pre-planning your strategies and knowing well in advance what you're going to do when the market does its thing. Then, when the storms hit, stick with your decisions. Don't be swayed by the news of the moment.
I'll end with a quote from Curtis Faith, a Chicago trader who turned a few thousand dollars into a fortune of over $200 million in the early 1980s: "Human emotion is both the source of opportunity in trading and the greatest challenge. Master it and you will succeed. Ignore it at your peril." This same thinking applies to your marketing.
