The Origins and Limits of Originalism: A Comparative Study
Ozan O. Varol
Lewis & Clark Law School
August 18, 2011
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law, No. 44, p. 1239, 2011
In the debate about originalism in the United States, scholars have devoted scant attention to the question whether the United States stands alone in its fascination with originalism. According to the prevailing view, originalism is distinctively American and the study of comparative originalism is an oxymoron. This Article challenges that conventional view. Drawing on neglected Turkish-language sources, the Article analyzes, as a comparative case study, the use of originalism by the Turkish Constitutional Court (Anayasa Mahkemesi) to interpret the secularism provisions in the Turkish Constitution. Comparing the Turkish version of originalism to American originalism, the Article sheds light on broader debates in the United States about the origins, functioning, and limits of originalism.
This comparative study calls into question the existing theories in the American legal literature about why originalism thrives in certain nations. This Article suggests a new hypothesis that views support for originalism as a cultural, not legal, phenomenon: Originalism blossoms in a nation when a political leader associated with the creation or revision of the Constitution has developed a cult of personality. The cult-of-personality hypothesis explains why originalism has thrived in nations such as Turkey and the United States, where the nation's founders have developed a strong cult of personality, but has failed to find a strong and sustained following in nations such as Australia, where the founders are held in no special reverence.
The Turkish case study is also instructive on the limits of originalism. Critics of originalism in the United States argue that originalism allows the dead hand of the past to rule an evolving society. In response to the critics, originalists note that the legislature has the option of amending the Constitution if its original meaning no longer comports with societal norms. But what if constitutional amendment were not an available option? The Turkish case study suggests that when the legislature lacks a plausible method - however difficult it may be - for amending the Constitution in times evolving societal norms, the continued use of originalism by the judiciary may motivate the legislature to place political constraints on the courts. In Turkey, the Constitutional Court's embrace of originalism but rejection of legislative attempts to amend the Constitution led to the adoption of a court-packing plan in September 2010.

Head lice spike in Bristol schools
BRISTOL, Va. - We have a warning for parents tonight -- we've learned Bristol, Virginia schools are seeing more cases of lice this year than last, and they're encouraging parents to check their children's heads.
Chantell Jones is concerned about sending her kids back to school after her kids came home twice in one week with head lice. School officials are also concerned and want to make sure parents are doing their part.
Jones is a mother of five and she tells us lice can be a nuisance, because when one family member gets it the whole family has to be treated. That can be time consuming. "[I] went through it strand by strand and pulled out all the nits I could," said Jones.
Jones tells us she brought her kids home last Thursday and treated them. "[I] sent them back on a Tuesday and they came back with a head of lice," she said.
She says they got it from school.
We spoke with the Bristol, Virginia Superintendent Dr. Mark Lineburg who told us they have been seeing lice in the schools. He tells News 5 they follow a policy on lice that has been in place for several years, and it allows kids to still come to class. "[If they have] live lice they're not in school; [with just] nits they're in school, because nits aren't seen as being contagious," said Lineburg.
He tells us they're looking into updating the policy, but says nits will most likely still be allowed. "'We're not physicians ourselves. We're depending on folks to advise us," said Lineburg.
Lineburg says when they're aware of an outbreak; they send home a letter, encouraging parents to check their children.
But Jones says she's concerned parents aren't doing it and doesn't want to send her kids to school with the chance of getting lice a third time. "I'm almost afraid of sending my kids to school," said Jones.
Lineburg says the school is doing all they can and says they're willing to help families in any way possible. "We're concerned as well and we're doing everything in our power. We have nurses, school social workers, and parent resource centers. When we have multiple cases we try to drill down to the families in most need and help," he said.
We learned from the Bristol, Tennessee schools website that if a child is spotted with head lice, they are not sent home until the end of the day but are not readmitted until they show proof of treatment.

Should MangaShare have a music section?
Please feel free to add anything you feel relevant to this topic.
Hell Yeah!
Hell No!
I vote yes! It'd be a great place for the Music Paradise Group to post our discoveries. That way they aren't lost in a sea of comments. ^_^
Props to Ravona for the awesome sig! Noel is the greatest and I challenge you to prove me otherwise!

Sounds great, you've got my vote.

I think we should. But at the sametime I think we shouldn't only because if someone likes rap for example we start seeing that person get bashed for liking rap and not rock. I can create a thread asking people who likes rap music and watch the negative responses. I can do the same with rock and watch how everyone jumps on that.
yeah itd be cool. id wonder what the eclectic fans of manga would be into, im sure it be fun.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

|In response to Re: Cast iron sewer pipe
Don't be surprised if it is much more than you think it should be, since there is more to it than just putting in a tee and connecting the sink.
: : The Fernco rubber fittings referred to do indeed work well. But be advised that they are NOT approved by most codes for permanent installations, and they are definitely not approved to be concealed in walls or buried (with the exception of straight couplings... but you seem to be referring to those elbows, tees, wyes, etc.).
: : NtP
: : : The "boot" you refer to is called a Fernco coupler and they come in various sizes and configurations. They are used exactly for applications such as the one you are doing. They not only allow you to mate pipes of different materials, they are flexible enough to allow a slight correction in alignment. They are as dependable as they pipe. As far as cutting cast iron, that is a bit more of a challenge. There are snap cutters that can be rented, but most guys use a recipcical saw with a metal cutting blade, or you can use a hand grinder (this is messy and can be dangerous especially with a 7" or larger tool) From the picture I get of what you're wanting to do, I think you'll need 2 Ferncos, but they are cheap and easy to use.
: Thanks for the replies. I was trying to decide whether to try this my self or hire it out. Since the sewer line is inside and certain tools and codes reqiurements are needed, I will probally get an estimate.

I think it's been about a week since I mentioned how much I love Ross Lynch, and that is obviously way too long! He plays Austin in Austin & Ally, but today, I have an interview with him talking about his band R5. I have been so obsessed with Teen Beach Movie, I totally forgot about his band with his 2 brothers Rocky and Riker, sister Rydel, and best friend Ellington Ratliff. Can you guess why they call themselves R5? They have been touring all summer, but we got a quick interview with the charming and adorable Ross.
Q: What was the most interesting news story that you saw on TV or read this week?
Ross: I don't even think I saw anything online this week because when I'm on tour I don't really surf the web at all.
Q: So you don't listen to the news or anything like that?
Ross: Sorry, no. (laughs)
Q: Do you have any pets?
Ross: No, I wish, but my mom won't let me get one. I love animals.
Q: What do you feel is the most important issue to kids your age today?
Ross: The most important issue, I feel, is to get outside. I feel that social networking and all that stuff like playing video games — even I like playing video games– but you have to remember get some sun! Just get outside and enjoy life because it only lasts so long.
Q: What do you want most in the world?
Ross: I have everything I need. I don't know if I need any more than what I have. Yes, I am pretty lucky.
Q: What's new with R5?
Ross: Currently we are on tour to 50 cities. I just literally flew in today and I'm flying back out to Canada tonight to go back on tour. We are going to release a new album after the tour probably September or late this year. Just a lot of exciting stuff. Just playing any show we can. Just doing whatever we can.
UPDATE: The new album Louder will be released on September 24, and the first single "Pass Me By" is out now. The video reminds me a little too much of One Direction's video for "Live While We're Young," but that's not a criticism. I love them both! What do you think? Are you an R5 fan? Leave a Comment!

Learn how to pest-proof your home from mosquitoes, fire ants and ants with expert tips from Tom Kraeutler and Greg Baumann.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Welcome to the Money Pit Pest Prevention Podcast presented by Orkin [1]. I'm Tom Kraeutler and one of the greatest joys of summertime is the ability to enjoy outdoor living spaces with friends and family, but that joy of a summer picnic or a barbeque in your backyard can be quickly ruined when mosquitoes and ants attack. We're going to attack that question in this edition of the Money Pit Pest Prevention Podcast with the help of Greg Baumann. Greg is the Vice-President of Training and Technical Services for Orkin, and someone that I've relied on for many years to help with issues like that. Greg, thanks so much for being a part of this program.
GREG BAUMANN: It's a pleasure to be here, Tom.
TOM KRAEUTLER: I've got a list of things I'd like to cover with this edition, starting with the only two places in the world that are safe from ant infestations and those would be?
GREG BAUMANN: The North Pole and the South Pole.
TOM KRAEUTLER: So, unless you're going to do a picnic at the North Pole or the South Pole, you pretty much are going to have to deal with ant infestation [2], so why don't we start right there? You know, it is a great time to get out early and enjoy being able to eat outside, for example. But, you know, it is the time of year when we love to get out and eat outside. But how do we separate ourselves from the insects when we're doing that if we can't have a screened in enclosure?
GREG BAUMANN: Well, remember, we're actually going into their environment now. You know, sometimes they come to our homes and we don't like it. Well, we go into their homes now when we're going to be sitting outside and so we just have to understand that ants are going to be part of what we have to deal with out there. There are thousands of species and about 50 species we're concerned with in the United States.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Well, are ants something that you want to try to manage the population of in and around your house? Or are they so beneficial that just have to kind of learn to live with them?
GREG BAUMANN: Well, ants can be beneficial in some respects but when they get into our living space or working space or our recreational spaces, totally unacceptable. And so we want to keep the populations down around our decks, down around our patios or any of the recreational areas.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Yeah and I was going to ask you about that. So, we want to create sort of a pest free zone around those eating areas. What kinds of steps should consumers be taking?
GREG BAUMANN: Well, we have to consider the type of ant as well. Probably the typical pest ant that's going to want to invade our picnics or want to invade our parties are going to be ants that are just out looking for food. And so what we're going to do is identify the ant and decide whether a treatment is necessary. At Orkin, we can go out, identify the ant, decide, okay, maybe we're going to do a treatment because you're going to have a big function here on Saturday. It'll reduce the population.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Yeah, so strategically, you could do treatments like you mentioned. If you got a big event, a big barbeque, a wedding, anything that you're kind of having a big party for outside, you can actually hire a pest control professional [3] to kind of do the advance work on that and try to keep that area as clean and possible from insects.
GREG BAUMANN: That's exactly right. A lot of people ask us, "Hey, I'm having a party next week. Can you come out and take care of any outside pests that might bother us?" And we can reduce the population. You can never eliminate them, but you can reduce the population.
TOM KRAEUTLER: All right, another insect that's very bothersome in the summer when we're outside enjoying activities is the mosquito. There are clothes today that actually are treated with repellants, aren't there? Is that a good way to try to keep yourself bite free?
GREG BAUMANN: That's exactly right. There are clothes that are out there. In fact, when we went to Haiti to work on the mosquito populations we were able to use some treated clothing. But, more often than not, it's probably just smart just to cover up when mosquitoes are going to be more active, which is dusk and dawn. Depending on where you live, there might be some out during the day. And there are also some materials that can be repellants, like Deet, which is an EPA registered product that was applied to the skin. But only apply it to the skin that's going to be exposed. Some people like to put it all over their arms, then cover up their arms. That's count-productive, and it's also not good for them.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Yeah, it's interesting that you mention that, because if you read the fine print on the repellant canisters, it'll say just that. You put it on exposed skin, but if you were to put a jacket over that skin, then you're really using it in a way that's inconsistent with the label directions.
GREG BAUMANN: And there's no reason to.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Yeah.
GREG BAUMANN: No reason to.
TOM KRAEUTLER: And let's also talk about, you mentioned Deet, and of course, that's my favorite repellant, and I just find it's far more effective than just about anything else out there. What do you think of the, is it picaridin and oil of eucalyptus and the other type of repellants? Do you think that Deet is just so much better, that we really should stick with that? Or what's your two cents on it?
GREG BAUMANN: Yes, some of those products are going to have limited effectiveness, but EPA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention both recommend Deet.
TOM KRAEUTLER: And I got to tell you, Greg, as a former professional home inspector, used to inspect the areas of swampy areas, we'd get those green head, the biting flies, super aggressive. The only thing that would keep those away from you was Deet. And they would attack the moment you opened your car door until you walked 20 feet or 30 feet to the house. They were right on you unless you had Deet, so I find that to be the most effective personal repellant. But besides putting personal repellants on, to try to eliminate mosquito populations [4] around your house, there are some things that homeowners can do to make sure those mosquitoes are not breeding, correct?
GREG BAUMANN: Well, that's exactly right. I mean, you have no control over your neighbors. You have no control over the woods that you don't own behind you, or even the local pond. But you want to reduce water and that's one of the key points. Reduce water around your house, and it's going to be standing water, such as in gutters that are not sloped properly so you have standing water inside the gutters. But another thing people don't think about is kids' toys.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Right.
GREG BAUMANN: You know, that little truck out there collecting water. These can all be havens for mosquitoes, and mosquito breeding.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Yeah, you really have to be vigilant, but the thing is if you add mosquito prevention and ant prevention to your sort of list of pre-summer to-do's, so that you try to eliminate the areas that are – that these insects can nest in, and you eliminate some of the moist areas and you eliminate the standing water, and you do preventative treatments before you have events, you can make your summer a lot more comfortable when it comes to eating outside and having those nice, pleasant picnics.
GREG BAUMANN: And that's exactly right. The key is to try to make it inhospitable for the pests.
TOM KRAEUTLER: Good advice. Greg Baumann, the Vice-President of Training and Technical Services for Orkin. Thank you so much for being a part of the Money Pit Pest Prevention Podcast and making our picnics that much more pleasant over the summer ahead.
GREG BAUMANN: Thank you.
TOM KRAEUTLER: And if you would like more information about how to identify pest problems in your home, visit Orkin.com. The Orkin.com site is full of useful information to help identify and eliminate insect problems in and around your house. And it also has a very interesting pest library. Very helpful because you can look up any pest you come across, as well as locate an Orkin pest control pro to help you eliminate those pests once and for all. It's all online at Orkin.com. Orkin, pest control down to a science. I'm Tom Kraeutler. Thanks for listening.

I doubt they'll repeat Duo's story XD Though Duo might be lame and do something like that, I doubt Hilde would though.
If they were 15 (the Wingkids, I shall dub them), that would be hilarious. And you know what? I bet that's what they're aiming for.... Though you're right, something about him comes off as younger. That he didn't speak, maybe? Or that Duo spoke for him. if he is younger, and this novel is a branch to a sequel, maybe they would intend for them to be 15 in the sequel. Ahhh, speculation...
On the idea of that "Duo" being just a codename and Duo's looking after the 1xR kid, though, I just suddenly got this mental image of Heero punching the shit out of Duo for growing his kid's hair out into a stupid braid while he was away >B|

akigakuyuu: Of all the characters, I'm most curious about Relena. She's not the only female featured in the OP for nothing. If "Duo" is her kid with Heero, I'm with kitsoru on Heero's reaction to the braid. xD
As for popsicle!Relena, Heero is most definitely in on it if J tech is involved. For all we know, he's frozen with her or guarding over her body. It would be irresponsible to just freeze her then leave her with out any guard just in case someone stumbled upon her. Damn, this reminds me of Sailor Moon. @_@
And hey, President Dorothy Tiberius Catalonia might not be half-bad. Demmit, I really hope Sumisawa tells us what that effing T middle initial is.
Elo: Golden trucks. xD
I think he's fronting. He's worn priest clothes for years so why not integrate the disguise into his identity? And if he is a priest, did he preside over a secret wedding between Heero and Relena ala Romeo and Juliet? I bet he lol'd through the whole ceremony.
Kitsoru: I'm with you on the Princess Aurora theories. I really hope finding out who she is will be a good pay-off and not totally lame.

Buzz from the Japanese fans c/o kaijyuu_m:
Just did the usual skimming of Japanese fansites:
1. Apparently the ladies of Aqua, English Cherries, and Nejimaki got together to read the latest Gundam Ace (at a pub of all places, LOL), and Suu of English Cherries has written about it on her blog. Not 100% sure but it sounds like the "Relena and an elderly person in conversation" part is from Gundam Evolve 07. (Source: http://bbs2.oebit.jp/suu4444/)
2. kora of the fanfic site "The edge" has written something similar on her blog. Also, she mentions that the manga artist Tokita Koichi tweeted recently that he had been requested permission to use some plot from the "Battlefield of Pacifist" manga. (Source: http://blog.gemini-aa.com/)
Hmm, do we see a pattern forming here?
I'm most excited about AQUA/Kajika Ono. She makes the most amazing Heero/Relena doujinshi:
Also, all the ladies mentioned in #1 are Heero/Relena doujin-ka.

The term used to describe Duo was 初老. In the description 初老の男 means "a man past middle-age". Jim Breen's dictionary also states that しょろう means "age 40". Either way you look at it, he's over 40.
And I find it amusing that Tokita was contacted. He wasn't the one that wrote the scenario for the manga. But that did get me thinking if a line that Dorothy says, "I'd like to find out if General Kushrenada's and Zechs Merquise's plan to bring peace through war can actually work." will be the basis for part of this novel or not...

Anyway, I've watched all of Gundam Evolve (I love that episode aaa) and yeah, I had guessed that was where it came from. Since it was animated, I guess they consider it canon. Makes sense. I always loved that conversation...
Hmmm... BoP, huh? I need to get my hands on that, augh Dx I don't really know what happens in it. Interesting that they're trying to get permission to use manga material of all things, though. I guess Sumisawa's trying a little bit of everything..
Hmm... war beginning again, huh? Sounds like a way to link it in with Turn-A Gundam's 'end of timeline' scenario XD

- A voice is heard behind Kathy, Youre just like your mother.
- Appearing was a middle aged man in black priests clothes with a young boy with long hair tied in a braid.
- The middle-aged man who appeared at random was nothing but smiles. Im Father Maxwell. The Father Maxwell who may run and but never tells a lie. And this brat with the unpleasant eyes is my son, Duo.
- The priest brings special attention to Kathy, By the way, I do hope that you brought three files with you. The three preludes are needed to awaken the Aurora Princess.
Kathy hadn't been born yet around AC 190.

You know, the cryonics got me thinking about G Gundam and what happened to Dr. Kasshu. Any chance "Princess Aurora" is someone who got dealt the death sentence but the people protested against her execution thus prompting them to have her put in frozen sleep instead? It would fit with the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale after all. xD

Oh God, I'd rather he be crazy than do something like that. Blech. Only Andy K can be Andy K and even that is a debate I constantly have in my head. People like that in real life are such a drag.

I know I should just shut up, but I want to make it clear that I don't really think Jason or Jeff are ripping anyone off. Sorry to keep wasting everyone's time with this shit.

Big day at guysiwthfeelings.com tomorrow, Monday February 2nd, 2009
First, we'll have an all new GWF with Matt Selman (from the Simpsons,) Funny Clown, Chris Tunney and comedian Bert Kriescher. 2 hours 16 minutes. Should be available by
Monday morning East Coast time.
Then for our all-access memebers, Jason will be releasing a 35 minute standup CD EP entitled "The Darkest Heart" that was recorded a few weeks ago in LA. If you purchase the CD you will also get access to the entire GWF catalog for one year (150 plus episodes.) If you've already purchased GWF All-Access for 2009, the EP is totally free.
Thanks and we appreciate your continued support.
I'm only 15 minutes in, but...
Bert Kreischer can't win on GWF. The first time he's on, he insults PFT; now he steals a joke from Chris Hardwick. The line "Gayer than cum on a mustache" is something Chris has been using in his act for a while now.
sorry, ilims.. episode is there now, (obviously)
and the ep should be there by tomorrow or thursday.
As one of the three, I'd just like to say that I am happy for you to have my $20 or whatever it was and I'm looking forward to the EP.
I remember when I signed up for the All Access originally it told me that if I didn't cancel I'd be charged again in a year. I totally forgot about this, of course, and was surprised when I saw the new charge, but I appreciate what you guys do, so it's worth it to me.
Congrats on the baby, Nash! Good luck on the move, Toph!
Nash - will the CD be available via the GWF website store?
the CD is going to be available either today or tomorrow...
CD is 9.95
Or if you purchase and all-access membership
It is free....
hope you guys like it... working hard on the standup...
be well everybody...can I just say, that I love funny clown and always will..
The following things were awesome about this latest episode:
1) The funnyclown/Nash blow-up. So much screaming and misdirected anger. A delight.
2) Selman's life lessons. This should be a recurring segment because his wisdom is both humorous and spot on. He is a millionaire after all.
3) Nash's "hands-off" approach to baby #2. "I've been busy." Pure gold.
Looking forward to the EP. Keep up the good work gang.
P.S. I am going public as mystery subscriber #2 of a the alleged three. Will the third member of our party please step forward? My guess is Selman paid for a second subscription under a fake name just to be nice. He's clearly a closet softie.
I'd say this makes me feel better, but I have the flu, so it actually didn't make me feel much better at all. But I do really appreciate it. I love you, too, Nash-Man.
I'm the third subscriber. And I'm not Selman, unfortunately.
I also loved the raw emotions of funnyclown v Nash. Nash, are you sure you aren't the one who's still hormonal? Just playing! Congratulations on your baby.
finally some board action for GWF...
been a drought...
Just wanted to say that I had to drive home at 5 pm from Northridge today, and the latest ep was there for me through all 90 min of that awful drive. Audio glitches be damned. Thanks, GWF.
i don't really like having a signature.
Ironically, this last episode made me decide to become a subscriber. The fact that the EP was thrown in as a bonus made the offer too good to resist. I have to admit, I didn't know much about Selman before I started listening, but between this last episode and the one about his grad speech at his old school, i've become an instant fan.
Keep up the good work, and bring back Joe Wagner soon! I think last time he mentioned something about possibly coming on with Jen Kirkman to discuss something....
Mothers against the Advancement of Colored People.
please know that
if you downloaded on Tuesday of this week
re-download if so, we fixed the audio on Bert, Selman and Toph
and it sounds much better.

|In response to Re: Sewer Trap jetted with High Pressure
Might I folishly ask why the plumbing service was initially called out to clear pipes adjacent to the mobile home? Might I also ask if the mobile home suffered slow drainage prior to the high pressure jetting? Let's just assume that everything was perfect in the mobile home. One reason your research might discover for a backup of sewage into the bathroom of the mobile home adjacent to the high pressure water jetting is this. The high pressure jet is a hose from a pressure pump connected to a nozzle that utilizes flow restrictors (facing downstream) which increase the velocity of the pressurized feed water even more, for the purpose of cleaning rust, scale, slime, grease, rocks, bacteria, paper wads, sanitary napkins, and fecal matter and pushing that mass ahead of it to a place about sixty feet away, where the sewer line gets larger and will allow gravity fall drainage (usually where a four inch house line falls into a six or eight inch street sewer main). Mobile Home parks are traditionally known for their attempt to save costs and expense on infrastructure, while attempting to maximize on monthly rental and space fees. Mobile home parks are usually constructed on private property and often install three hundred foot runs of four inch sewer pipe in their driveways, before the sewer exits the property and drops into the six or eight inch main. The mobile homes themselves are often utilizing 3 inch sewer drains that connect to that four inch sewer.
When a high pressure jetting tool is inserted into a grease impacted 4 inch line, it has a hard time pushing itself, its high force water, and the slime ball in front of it down the line all that distance. The high pressure jetter is capable of diverting some of the high pressure water from a forward (downstream) direction to a rearward (upstream) direction - with the intention of causing a " high pressure jet stream boost" to force the nozzle, its supply hose, and the slime ball downstream. When that wad of "stuff" does not go downstream very fast, the rearward jet then builds up in the four inch pipe and quickly fills that up, and then rises up the 3 inch mobile home connections and begins to back up into the tubs and showers of the mobile homes adjacent.
I hope this bit of information adds to your research project, and you will pass it on to others who might benefit from it.
: Hi!
: I am doing research pertaining to plumbing problems which occurred in a mobile home.
: Recently a plumbing service was contacted to clear pipes adjacent to a mobile home. The pipes were cleared using a high pressure water jetting systems.
: After the cleaning of the pipes, the owners of the mobile home found that sewage had backed up into their home (in the bathroom).
: What could have caused this? What could have prevented this from occurring?
: I would appreciate any help you may offer.
: Thank you!

California is one of the fastest-growing states in the nation in total population. More importantly, the state's elderly population is expected to grow more than twice as fast as the total population. By 2010 the elderly population (60+ years of age) in Los Angeles County is projected to be approximately 1.6 million. This will create new challenges and opportunities for local government services, profit and non-profit organizations and the philanthropic community. The attached guide is a first step in answering these new challenges and opportunities.
This guide is a multipurpose resource: It will serve to educate the general public about the various programs and services available to the elderly and their caregivers; it is an outreach tool for the elderly and their caregivers to use as a vehicle to access services they may need; and lastly, it is a tool of empowerment for individuals – both the elderly and their caregivers—to take a 'hands-on' approach to managing their care.
You may download copies of this guide in all three languages by visiting our website at http://dcss.co.la.ca.us/. Although quantities are limited, you may request additional copies by contacting Dianne Nash at 213-738-2600.

The First Annual Cowboys Memorial Day Rodeo, presented by Emery Telcom, will come to the Castle Dale Rodeo Arena in Castle Dale and is sanctioned by the Rocky Mountain Professional Rodeo Association. "As there are several rodeo competitors from Carbon and Emery counties who compete in the RMPRA circuit we are pretty pumped up to have an RMPRA sanctioned rodeo here in Castle Country" says committee man Justin Truman, Huntington, who currently stands first in Tie Down Calf Roping in the RMPRA standings.
Although the official RMPRA rodeo season runs from November to October, the Cowboys Memorial Day Rodeo presented by Emery Telcom will act as the summer season opener rodeo of the RMPRA circuit. Truman explains that "This rodeo will not only set the pace for the rest of the season, but will give more local competitors a chance to compete and show off their skills to a hometown crowd in a professionally produced show."
Chase Sherman of Huntington who also sits on the organizing committee and who currently ranks in the top two in the RMPRA Bull Riding standings commented that "another cool thing about the RMPRA Rodeos is that not only do you have your regular pro-am cowboys competing in the RMPRA Rodeos, but you also have some of the big boys from the PRCA competing in these rodeos," Sherman continues, "this gives those who have not yet jumped up to the PRCA ranks a chance to compete and rank themselves against the PRCA cowboys."
The livestock for the Cowboys Memorial Day Rodeo will be provided by Diamond H Rodeo of Smithfield, Utah who has won several Bucking Bull and Horse of the Year Awards and have also received "Stock Contractor of the Year" awards. The Bull fighters will be Mark and Justin Scherer a father and son team from Jerome, Idaho who were recently honored as "2011 Bull Fighters of the Year".
An added event will be Miniature Bucking Bull Riding both nights with the mini bulls provided by CRC Miniature Bucking Bulls who provided bulls for the 2011 World Miniature Bull Riding Finals held last October. Mini bull riding will begin at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday nights with the actual Rodeo at 7:30.
The Rocky Mountain Professional Rodeo Association encompasses four states and holds approximately 40 rodeos a year stretching through Nevada, Utah, Idaho and Wyoming with the finals held each November at Heber City, Utah. The Cowboys Memorial Day Rodeo held at Castle Dale will be the most Eastern RMPRA rodeo in the circuit for 2012.
All tickets are general admission with no assigned seating and can be purchased at the gate. Ticket prices are $10 for 12 years and over, 6-11 years $7, five and under free with a Family Pass of (4+ family members) just $30.

Get the Wolves newsletter
16:03 5th September 2013
Launch done - Museum incoming
Jody Craddock, Matt Murray and other former players invite you to join them in Wolves Museum to celebrate the launch of the new book "The Origins of Wolverhampton Wanderers" on Thursday 19th September 2013 from 6pm.
Jody, Matt et al will be in the Museum to meet fans and take a tour around this fantastic facility, along with the author of the book Patrick A. Quirke.
All proceeds from Ticket Sales, as well as £1 for every book sold, will be donated to the JC6 Testimonial Fund in aid of Balls to Cancer and Birmingham Children's Hospital.
There are limited places available and tickets are £7 for adults and £4.50 for concessions and can be booked online here, from the Ticket Office on 0871 222 1877 or from the Megastore.
Jody's testimonial was launched in fine style yesterday with fans being put through their paces and living the life of a footballer at the Compton training ground.
Jody and Matt led fans on a tour of the training ground after breakfast, before leading them in a rigorous 90-minute training session after which there was lunch – and an entertaining 'Q and A'.
"It was a great start to the testimonial year and I think everyone really enjoyed it," said Jody.
"It's not long since I retired but it was nice to get back to the training ground and see a few familiar faces, before getting stuck into the training.
"The standard was fairly interesting, and I'd probably go as far as to say I saw a few things done yesterday which I have never seen before and probably didn't think possible!"
Matt added: "Yes it was fair to say some of the coaching was, how shall I put it, a challenge.
"But overall it was extremely enjoyable and great to see so many fans come forward to support Jody and his testimonial.
"It doesn't surprise me though – Jody is a top man who was respected by everyone at Wolves including the supporters."
A series of events are planned during the year and supporters can keep up to date on details by visiting www.jc6.co.uk or following on twitter @jc6testimonial
A proportion of the proceeds will go to Birmingham Children's Hospital, where Jody's son Toby is continuing to receive treatment for leukaemia, and Balls to Cancer.
The Testimonial Committee would like to thank Wolves' kit manufacturers PUMA for donating the trainingwear and Multipower and Angel Springs the drinks for yesterday's event.

What will Todd Nelson do?
The OKC Baron's training camp starts next Friday, followed by two exhibitions games on October 5th and 6th before their regular season starts October 12th. Nelson has a wonderful dilemma; will he play Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Jordan Eberle on the same line, or will he split them up so four Oiler prospects can benefit from playing with them?
What would you do? I know what I would do, but first let's hear from the head coach.
I chatted with Nelson on Monday about Eberle, RNH as well as some of the other top prospects in OKC.
JG: Do you think that it would better the development of everybody if you had [Jordan] Eberle on one line and then [Ryan] Nugent-Hopkins on another, or do you think that they're better served playing together?
TN: That's something that we have to talk about to see what the best fit is. One line could be [Magnus] Paajarvi, Nugent-Hopkins and Eberle. That could be a really good line. Maybe management wants to see that happen, that could be a line in the future so who knows about that. But right now I haven't given much thought to that.
As a coaching staff we're going to talk and see what the best fit is. But it's awfully nice getting those players to come here. I know some of the feedback from management [is that] things have been really positive from their (Eberle and RNH) standpoint so right now we're looking forward to getting the season going, and players are chomping at the bit to get playing.
JG: Usually when the players come down to OKC they've already been to the Oilers' camp. That isn't the case this year so will that change how you go through training camp?
TN: Yes it does. It's kind of nice for us because we get all of the players here right away so that we can start working on our system work and how we're going to play, versus before where we had a handful of guys from the Oiler camp come here and you've got to round out the training camp with guys from the Central League and so forth. Getting all of the guys here early is going to be a good thing so that we can get working on things. We're going to have a lot of bodies and so we're going to have to cover a lot of system stuff. At least now it gives us a lot of bodies to work on those things.
JG: Justin Schultz chose Edmonton over 29 other franchises and comes in highly touted out of college. I think he might be the best benefactor of this unfortunate lockout because he will get some time, however long that is, in the American League rather than straight to the NHL. How have previous players coming directly out of college handled the transition from college hockey to the AHL which is a different style and a lot more physical?
TN: I think it's always an adjustment. There is always a period of adjustment. It's excellent for him to come here and start playing pro. Just to play against older guys that are men, it's a bit more competitive. So I think that we're going to see him adjust to that but what I do know is that he is a very smart, highly skilled player and let me put it this way, I'm pretty sure that I'm going to make time for him on the power play.
JG: Yeah he's got a heavy shot. Something tells me that Nugent-Hopkins and Eberle might also be on your power play. When you have guys of that elite skill level, how much can it benefit the other prospects by just the chance to play and practise with them?
TN: Well I think that they're going to benefit quite a bit. Just to be able to see the things that they do in practice and in games, and also the skill level that they bring is going to demand a higher skill level. I see nothing but positives things with those guys coming here. They're going to come here and have some fun winning some games. Once again the league is going to be competitive because other teams are doing the same thing; the league is definitely going to be a lot more skilled. And I think that the toughest thing is going to be finding ice time for everybody, just trying to make sure that everyone stays sharp.
JG: You had mentioned that maybe Paajarvi starts with Nugent-Hopkins and Eberle to start the season, where do you see Tyler Pitlick starting this year?
TN: He has to play in a top-six role, that's where we have him slotted. He might play in a line with Josh Green. We're just kind of looking at things. To go through our whole lineup you can go through multiple combinations and I don't think that we'd miss a beat. We're very deep at forward and having Justin Schultz come help us out on defence is certainly a bonus. Tyler Pitlick, we feel that he's a top-six guy and he's going to get an opportunity to prove that and play in that role. I have six lines of possible guys that could play here. We're just going to have to try to find the right combinations and put a player in a spot where he can succeed.
JG: Do you see Pitlick as a winger or as a centreman?
TN: I see him as a winger right now. I used him both as a centreman and as a winger last year. He said that he felt more comfortable on the wing and he has tremendous speed as we all know, so to have him flying down the wing has been a sight to see. In playoffs last year I moved him to centre for a few periods when guys went down to injury, so he's pretty versatile, but with all of the centremen that we have down here he's probably going to have to start on the wing.
JG: Does he have a little sandpaper in his game?
TN: He does. I think the biggest thing with him is just like with a lot of players, he just has to work on his consistency; always finishing your checks game in and game out. I think that that is the biggest thing, just trying to be more consistent with it. He learned that last year, and late in the year I think that he found that consistency. He finished really strong for us. He played well in the playoffs and it was unfortunate that he got a little banged up in the Toronto series. But he does play with jam; it's just a matter of playing more consistent with it.
JG: Teemu Hartikainen got a little bit of time in Edmonton last year. Will you play him with [Anton] Lander or do you have an idea where he is going to play?
TN: I'm not sure; we'll have to see where he fits. I think that he can play with Jordan and Ryan and once again, I'm not sure if I'm going to put Jordan and Ryan together. We just have to go through training camp and see what line combinations are working and kind of [let it] feel itself out.
JG: We would assume that with their success in the NHL, Eberle and Nugent-Hopkins are going to be able to see them create a lot of opportunities down in the American League. The league has seen this before in '04-05 with Spezza, Staal, Cammalleri and a lot of other guys were down there and put up some pretty big point totals. Does it change your approach to the game? Will you try to be a little more offensive oriented just because of what those guys are capable of?
TN: No, I think that we're going to play the same type of system that we did last year. With those types of players I think that the creativity part will come out off the rush, or in the offensive zone. That's something that they can be very creative with and I have no problem with them trying things there, but in the defensive zone and the neutral zone we have to have a lot of structure. I don't see us coaching any differently. We may have a couple of different wrinkles in terms of how our power play looks. I like Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on the half-wall and I like Justin Schultz at the top, that's pretty apparent. Where I think that we might see a bit of a difference is just how our power play looks, but five-on-five hockey that's not going to change. Last year our team was very successful just playing in our structure and I firmly believe that that is going to help us again this year.
JG: What about your penalty kill are there some young guys that you'd like to see get more ice time in that opportunity?
TN: Yeah, Curtis Hamilton is entering his second year. Guys like him and Pitlick are going to be relied on a lot more. I watched some game tape last summer when Curtis played in the world juniors and he played the penalty kill very well. He's certainly a very smart hockey player and he's going to be one of our go to guys on the PK. So guys are going to have different roles, but we're going to try to find roles for everybody, and hopefully we can try to find enough ice time and have them develop the right way.
JG: Another guy that I think that you must be very curious to see is Tyler Fedun after what happened to him after last season when he broke his leg. I know that you saw him at the rookie camp this summer; do you have any ideas in terms of defensive pairings?
TN: I haven't really thought about a whole lot. We're a pretty young D core, but I think that we're a pretty good D core. A guy like Taylor, he might be a guy that plays his off side with a guy like Alex Plante. I'm not quite sure. We threw out different combinations on the board, but once again we've got to know what works. Sometimes a pairing looks really good on the white board, but when they get on the ice it's not a very good pairing where they just can't feed off of each other. Once again, we're going to try all of these different combinations and see what fits.
As for Taylor Fedun, I'm very excited to see him playing this year just based on how he looked in development camp. He has a very bright future ahead of him and he's a very smart hockey player. I like the way that he moves the puck, so I'm very excited to see him skating well and from all of the indications that I've been given, he's ready to go.
JG: You mentioned Josh Green earlier. He is on an AHL only contract, but do you have any other guys like that?
TN: We also have Teigan Zahn out of the University of Calgary and Danny Ringwald on AHL deals. We had to protect ourselves and sign these players because we didn't know if there was going to be a lockout or not. You can't predict those things. Hopefully it's just a short time that they're locked out and when that happens, we're probably going to lose about four guys going up top right away.
At the start of the year there's going to be a lot of bodies here and we're going to have to do a really good job of trying to fit guys into different situations to make sure that they get ice time.
JG: Some Oiler fans were wondering since you have Eberle, Nugent-Hopkins,Schultz, Paajarvi and Pitlick and all of these skilled players, will you need a protector down there? Do you have enough grit and toughness in your lineup that they won't get pushed around at the American Hockey League level?
TN: I think that we do. We have a guy like Dane Byers who is a role player who can also play the game very well, he doesn't shy away from that stuff but there are also other guys that come to the party as well. We have guys that play pretty gritty like [Colten]Teubert and [Alex] Plante and [Antti] Tyrvainen.
Hartikainen is a guy who plays hard. There is not a whole lot of fighting in this league anymore. You might have a couple of tilts in a game, but that would be rare. You might go two or three games without any fights. I don't think that that's going to be an issue. We always pride ourselves with being team tough and that's a role that a lot of different guys can take. A guy like Tanner House had a fight in the playoffs against Toronto and handled himself very well. That's something that we have to do by committee and have that wolf pack mentality. I don't foresee that being an issue. But if it does become an issue then we're going to have to address it.
It makes sense to play either Paajarvi or Hartikainen with Eberle and RNH if you believe they might eventually play together in the NHL. But it also makes sense to split up the Oilers and allow four players the opportunity to learn from elite level offensive players.
Eberle and RNH will definitely play on the first unit PP, but I suspect Nelson will try both aforementioned scenarios at even strength.
The Oilers are in a great position to find out if Anton Lander can play with a skilled winger like Eberle. You rarely get the opportunity to have your prospects play with the best players in the organization. Usually it happens in the NHL, but then they have to face defenders like Shea Weber. I suspect it will be easier and more comfortable for Paajarvi, Hartikainen, Pitlick and Lander to learn how to play with Eberle and RNH when they aren't facing NHL-type defenders.
The Oilers need to take advantage of this rare situation and try a few different combos.
Nelson has a few options, but I might lean towards splitting up RNH and Eberle at the start to see how the other four react.
September 19 2012, 09:45AM
...lines of two plus one no? ...too bad Yak can't play there... ..sounds like 14 will play for less......nice interview Jason
[edit] nice compilation too
September 19 2012, 10:26AM
Has Shawn Horcoff played his last game as an Oiler?
Oscar Klefbom will be wearing Oiler silks next time the Oilers take to the ice.
Justin Schultz will be a legitimate top 3 d'man in the fall of 2013.
Tyler Bunz pushes Dubnyk back to the bench.
...where's the fast forward button?
AHL is a development league.
So why not try to develop some chemistry down there.
Try to play Ebs and the Nuge with someone they might actually play with in the show.
MPS or Harkie works for me.
I also hope Hall's shoulder heals up and he goes to the AHL.
Let him have that go at center.
September 19 2012, 10:53AM
i would split nuge and ebs unless the team was down and needed some offense.
September 19 2012, 11:46AM
Great piece, Jason. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that splitting RNH/Eberle hadn't even occurred to me until now; there's a certain amount of sense to it.
god i wish these games were on tv
god i wish these games were on tv
Thought they coulkd be streamed online like last year.
September 20 2012, 10:10AM
Thats a lot of system talk from the Barons coach if you ask me.System ,system,system,whats with that??Good-on-ya fellas,great job.
From a line combo perspective this is a bonus,we can now see Lander take control offensively with skilled wingers,I predict that if he gets a chance to play with the two best wingers he will compete with Nuge on even ground points wise.We havent seen him get that chance with the Oilers,I say he grabs it now and lights it up.I am a huge Lander supporter as I value his sandpaper attitude that annoys opposition players.He does it as he pushes for offense not as a hindering tactic.I would like to see him get 3rd line time with the Oilers--we can give him skill there.I think he has 2n line center potential down the road in the NHL.
As someone commented on already ,faceoffs seem to be the weak spot for everyone,so at this point if a guy like Lander can specialise and excell he can make a spot for himself,same for everyone,faceoffs are critical and we need players who can consistantly win them.I hope they put Nuge in those paceoff positions a lot.Especially against the bigger centermen.
September 19 2012, 10:36AM
While I see the benefit of getting as many players exposed to playing with elite NHL players, I think it is more important to the Oilers future to develop further chemistry with a potnetiall future line.
Without question I would keep Nuge and Ebs together and would start them out with Paajarvi. Harti would be my next choice on that line and Pitlick would probably be 3rd choice.
September 19 2012, 11:26AM
Hall won't be able to go to the AHL once he is healthy. Can't be sent down and the AHL put in a rule that the only guys who can sign AHL deals had to be on the Clear list last March.
Thanks for clearing that up Jason.
It was my understanding once he was cleared to play and since he was on an ELC. He could be sent down.
Guess that was wrong.
September 19 2012, 11:49AM
Awesome read, Jason. I'm with Willis up there, all I had in my mind were visions of Nuge and Ebs dancing around AHL d-men.
I don't know who I'm more excited to see play: Yak or Schultz.
September 19 2012, 12:06PM
Thanks for the article, Jason, this is exactly the kind of stuff I want to read now. Hope these types of articles keep coming and we can all get excited about a great Barons team. Hope to have lots of coverage leading up to training camp and the season too.
September 19 2012, 12:29PM
I think its been asked before but is there any way to catch the barons games either online or on TV?
September 19 2012, 12:40PM
Getting Eberle to find chemistry with another centremen(Lander) is a nice idea. I just wonder what Lander's projection is in the NHL. Second line centreman at best? Or third line?
I still envision RNH playing with Yakupov on the RW. A left handed centreman passing to a left handed RW, especially someone like Yakupov who has a great one timer, would be ideal.
Eberle isn't a one timer type shooter. He's so good at weaving and picking his spots for a shot. I think he'd do just fine playing without RNH, as he's shown already.
September 19 2012, 01:24PM
I love the look of those lines. Nuge and Ebs already have NHL offense. Pitlick and Lander especially need the help right now. The protection with those big players will help nuge.
But I can only see lines like that if management kind of forces them into place. I'm sure some of the other AHLers (green for ex.) will be thrown in the mix too, pushing lander down to the third string.
September 19 2012, 03:46PM
im sure someone will start putting them up on various free sites for all to enjoy
September 19 2012, 03:56PM
I have heard you can watch them online I think through Barons website but its pricey.
Milhouse's twitter last night said Ebs and RNH would play together. He talked to Coach Nelson, but who knows. Also Schultz will be paired up with Marincin to start and the top pp unit will be RNH, Ebs, Paajarvi, Harti, and Schultz.
September 19 2012, 06:50PM
Hall won't be able to go to the AHL once he is healthy. Can't be sent down and the AHL put in a rule that the only guys who can sign AHL deals had to be on the Clear list last March.
Please pardon my ignorance, but what is the "Clear list"?
September 19 2012, 07:08PM
Please pardon my ignorance, but what is the "Clear list"?
I looked at the Barons' "Clear Day" roster from March 2012, per the press release below:
The roster does not identify Eberle, so if the AHL Clear Day roster is the Clear list, how is it that Eberle can go to the AHL, but Hall cannot?
September 20 2012, 07:07AM
I hope RNH makes a point to leap forward in his faceoff ability while in the AHL: it would really help the PP if he could take and win the draw.
September 20 2012, 10:41AM
Tood bad, it would have been great to see Hall in the AHL but I'm sure he'll find a good place to play!
Oil kings are on shaw tonight for anyone that is interested and itching for some hockey. Channel 299 shaw direct.
Just a thought, but if the lockout lasts the season, what happens for next year's draft? A lottery for #1 overall like the Crosby draft year or going based on the standings from the last full season? Either way, it should shape up nicely for the Oil to have a shot at McKinnon or Jones to add to the young core of the team.
September 20 2012, 12:59PM
At this point I dont see Ladner as center playing with skill level types.His NHL destiny will likely be.. third line center in a checking role, as well as same role on the PK, popping in the odd goal.A Marchment type role.

The second time was a charm for Ravine Drive School in Matawan, NJ. After four years of trying and just falling short, they won the grand prize in the NJEA/Radio Disney Read Across New Jersey Contest two years in a row. Despite the challenges of lost school days due to Hurricane Sandy, the students read a whopping 97 books per student.
On May 17, they were rewarded with an appearance by Radio Disney AM 640 and the Radio Disney AM 640 Road Crew, along with special guest Mickey Mouse who flew in from the Magic Kingdom.
NJEA member Tara Barry noted that their win last year inspired students to keep up their reading. "We continued to find students on any given day reading in the hallway, on the bus, on the playground during recess, and even in the cafeteria!"
The students at Washington Community School in Plainfield came in second place reading over 81 books per student. On June 7, the students will enjoy a Radio Disney AM 640 appearance. Third-place winner Randall Carter Elementary School in Wayne boasted a respectable 55 books per child. They rocked with the Radio Disney Road Crew on April 8.
The purpose of the NJEA/Radio Disney AM 640 Read Across New Jersey Contest is to give children an added incentive to read. This school-wide contest encourages children to read as many books as they could over a three-month period from Nov. 1 to Feb. 1 Teachers and school librarians verified that the children were reading appropriate grade level books by initialing each child's reading log. The winner was determined by the dividing the total number of books read by the school enrollment.

It's Dungeness crab season! You have no idea how excited this makes me. Hell, I even used an exclamation point. When I was much, much younger, my dad would bring home ginormous King crab legs and eat them in front of my brother and I. When he was feeling generous, he'd let us have a bite or two, but would quickly return to selfishly hoarding the rest for himself. At about the age of 11, when we were old enough to wield our own crackers and sharp crab forks, he finally gave us our own legs to attack and excavate. I still made him crack my crab for years after, complaining of the pain inflicted by sharp exoskeletons. I was kind of a brat--but a brat that loved crab.
There's nothing quite like fresh crab--sweet, salty and succulent. None of that canned or imitation stuff will ever do after trying it once. And for those of us who grew up cracking open legs and picking at claws? Well, don't even think about trying to feed us anything else--we're likely to cringe behind your back. Now, my favorite crab is admittedly of the King variety despite its spiny legs. It's just easier to eat. However, Dungeness crab is the perfect crab for dinner parties or meals with people you actually want to talk to. Not that I actually wanted to talk to my family during dinner, but if I did, the task at hand takes time and creates the perfect excuse for a slow, leisurely dinner. But don't invite those friends who don't like getting down and dirty--picking apart Dungeness crab is messy business that may or not require a full-body protective frock...
Spicy Roasted Dungeness Crab
1 bunch fresh parsley, stems trimmed 2 tsp. fresh thyme 4 cloves garlic
Garlic Noodles
1 lb. cooked noodles
1 medium head garlic, minced
4 Tbsp. butter
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1.5 Tbsp. dark soy sauce
3 Tbsp. freshly grated parmesan
fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Note: Thin noodles work the best, such as spaghetti or angel hair, but linguini also did the trick. If you want bi-colored noodles, remove half the noodles from pan, then add in soy sauce, tossing noodles. Return rest of noodles to pan & continue.

I can say calmly, if the blank space must happen, it must, and amidst its darkness the new seed must sprout. So it has been before: first comes birth, and hope scarcely conscious of itself; then the flower and fruit of mastery . . . .
(William Morris, The Lesser Arts)
As a person begins his or her educational journey, learning might, at times, seem like a "blank space," an insurmountable hurdle. This frame of mind may occur when one attempts to prepare an essay assignment, but no thoughts or words come to mind. However, with time and effort, education does take place. In fact, the person with writer's block who stared at a blank sheet of paper one day, with practice, soon may become a competent writer.
Learning to write well is an important step toward achieving one's educational goals. Being able to clearly communicate one's thoughts and emotions is true empowerment. As a professor of English, I am eager to assist my students in their endeavors to write effectively with skill and confidence.
In addition, I am enthusiastic about exploring literature with students. Through discussions of literature, my classes have an opportunity to make
With my students, I too am aspiring to learn—reaching for the "flower and fruit of mastery." I hope you'll join us.

Hi Chris. Yes, I am searching for a new job. I work for the state of NE. in juvenile corrections and after 21 years it is time to move on. I have been trying to find a job with the armed forces as a mental health provider and have applied to Camp Lejueune. Next to mental health work I am very interested in Disaster Relief. I have had alot of training in this area and I am a member of the Medical Reserve Corp. I also debrief for CISM. I have applied to Red Cross and my resume is posted on Monster. I am in the process of getting everything on USA Jobs. Any tips to get into this area would be appreciated. My children are grown so deployment is no problem. I even wrote to the White House! With all of the issues that are going on in the camps and with the PTSD with the troops you would think that we would be in great need. Ok. Thats enough of that. Thanks for the invite. Candy

Hello Chris,
I would like to find a job in Chicago. I just ETS'd from the Army Guard and have a degree in Public Relations but would be interested in other fields as well. I'm searching for jobs here and I'm just finding Monsterjobs links, not actual government jobs for someone with no real experience, and that's what I thought this site was for. Any help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Drew Swithin

thanks for adding me

The Jets are undeniably the biggest surprise in Super Bowl history, but they are also one of the least impressive champions. Sure, there's the glitz of Joe Namath and his guarantee of victory over an 18-point favorite. New York also boasted a future Hall of Fame wide receiver in Don Maynard and a solid ground game with Matt Snell and Emerson Boozer. However, the Jets had just the third-best record in the AFL that season. Namath completed fewer than 50 percent of his passes, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns. Coincidentally, Weeb Ewbank coached New York to victory in the Super Bowl over his former team, the Colts. Oh yeah … and the Jets lost the "Heidi" game that season.
Guess who was right on our heels? Last seasons Seahawks! Guess who ranked ahead of us.... The 2004 Superbowl losing Eagles! No respect. ESPN and the rest of the sports world just doesn't respect the Joe Namath or the Jets. Bunch of assholes.
