OSCAR: Online System for Clerkship Application and Review
Oscar is a centralized resource that federal judges use to receive electronic clerkship applications. A majority of federal judges use OSCAR as the only way to accept your application. Many Judges do not use OSCAR and will only accept paper applications by mail. If a Judge you are interested is not on OSCAR you can assume they are only accepting paper applications. Some Judge use both OSCAR and also accept paper applications.
Important Information for 2L Applicants
"The Administrative Office of the United States Courts has opened OSCAR to "2Ls" effective November 4, 2013, and OSCAR will release their applications when finalized rather than holding them until a specified release date.
As part of de-linking OSCAR from the Hiring Plan, the Administrative Office Director, Judge John D. Bates, sent a communication today to all federal judges informing them that "2Ls" have access to OSCAR and their applications will be available online at the time of submission. The communication encouraged all judges to use OSCAR to accept applications online, post their positions, and maintain a current judge profile that communicates their hiring preferences." (Oscar Working Group 11/4/13)

Great garage, really happy with the service!
Great lad collected my car in and delivered and great price too A++++
Good service.I recommend!
Very friendly and efficient service. Saved me a shed load of cash by not doing unnecessary work. Would certainly use again
Saj is a great guy. Got on very well with him. Took the car to him and left it there, he diagnosed and fixed the issue on the same day. No fuss. Great guy. I will definitely recommend his garage to anyone looking for a trustworthy mechanic.
Excellent. Fast and friendly, price was as quoted and the best around. They also sourced me some tyres at a better price than I was going to pay. Even washed my car!
Head gasket gone, Two injectors broke, glow plug broke stuck in head. Xmas time, head needed skimming and pressure checked he still got it done on time and polished the car, and brought it back to Wales for me. Matt cheers bud goes like s+it off shovel.
decided to cancel after being laughed at for sending a message to confirm date and time for my brake bads to be fixed. sounded like a joke of a company so not worth the risk
Highly recommend Bolton Timing Chains, Full service carried out and you can really tell the difference after the service. Thank you.
Absolutely spot on, very friendly and best price by a mile. Definitely recommend and will be my garage of choice from now on
charged exactly what they quoted
Great customer service and very happy with the end result. Very professional, well presented and friendly company, great communication throughout the day, work was done sooner than expected. Trusted the guy that picked my car up as soon as I met him. Was even more impressed when found out that they don't usually cater to my postcode area (Veterans Village Manchester M40) but were willing to be flexible. Will definitely be recommending B and G Autotechs and will definitely be doing business with them again. Thank you very much.
Service was great. Would reccomend
great job,highly recommended
Great customer service, brilliant price. Can't speak highly enough of this company.
Really good customer service, left me full of confidence that my car would be well looked after. Staff where very understanding and friendly. Highly recommended.
The guys did a great job on the car! They even dropped it back to Liverpool for me which was a big help. Definitely recommended!
Janis took the time to collect from Wigan my van and repair it in Bolton so i could have it back so I could work the following day. You cant complain about that. Work on the van was perfect.very happy and reasonable price too. Will use again and i do recommend.
JJ Lux Motors are brilliant!! Had a large dint and scratches above rear wheel. JJ Lux repaired it and it now looks brand new, which seemed impossible for the the price that they had quoted. And due to an unfortunate family tragedy they even brought my car back early and finished the work off at my home so that I could use the car. Can't say enough good things about them. If JJ Lux Motors send you a quote then take my advice and accept it. You will not regret it.
Very helpful and great service. Would definitely use again
good and cheap service. Got MOT done for £27.5. I gave 4 star as I had to wait 2 and half hours.
Very pleased with the overall experience, excellent customer service and very well priced for a quality garage.
The price was very good for a dealership. I thought to myself when they get my car in thet will tell me it needs loads of work doing it, this is exactly what happened. I ended up having a new battery and having some pipe replaced that had split in the engine. I was quoted £103.00 for the original job and i ended up paying £228.00.
More than happy, very helpful
Brilliant service
Great service, friendly staff and a great job well done. Good value too as the car definitely needed work. Will use again.
Price was quoted and didn't change. Extremely fast, even picked the car up from work and delivered it back for free! Would recommend and use again myself !
Great team at the garagle! Ken is very knowledgeable is very knowledgeable and straight forward. Fixed my issues within the day and even offered one of his vehicles while mines was being fixed!
After having problems with other garages it was refreshing to finally find this one. The garage is competent, timely and keenly priced. Above all the honesty and willingness to help stands them in good stead. I will be recommending this garage to others. Cheers guys

Current Products
The Chevrolet Cruze, Chevrolet's best-selling passenger car around the world, provides the amenities, quietness, safety features, infotainment and roominess expected of a larger sedan, but with the efficiency and value of a compact car.
For 2013, Chevrolet adds infotainment and safety technologies that bring even more value to Cruze.
They include the Chevrolet MyLink infotainment system, standard on 2LT, Eco and LTZ models and available on 1LT. Two audio systems – including an AM/FM audio system with GPS-enabled navigation and a seven-inch-diagonal color touch-screen, are also new for 2013.
Cruze also adds an Enhanced Safety Package – available on LT, Eco and LTZ models – that offers crash-avoidance technologies such as Side Blind Zone Alert, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and rear park assist.
Cruze is available in LS, 1LT, 2LT and LTZ models, as well as a gas-sipping Eco model that, when equipped with a manual transmission, achieves an EPA-estimated 42 mpg highway, making it the most fuel-efficient, gasoline-powered non-hybrid car in America.
Cruze design
Cruze features Chevrolet's global signature face – a two-tier grille with the gold bowtie logo. An arching roofline connects a steeply raked windshield and fast-sloping rear pillars that provide a sporty, coupe-like proportion.
Prominent headlamp housings wrap around the corners and sweep upward into the fenders and hood. The short rear deck is typically found on sport coupes. Wheels are planted at the corners with minimal front and rear overhangs, which make the car appear longer.
Inside, the twin-cockpit motif is matched with high-quality interior materials and exceptional assembly tolerances. Grained, soft-touch components and low-gloss trim panels exude a level of quality uncommon in the segment.
The instrument panel features richly detailed instruments backlit with light-emitting diode (LED) technology. The integrated center stack houses the infotainment display, climate controls and radio controls, and blends harmoniously with the instrument panel.
The interior pillar and other moldings are color and grain-matched to the headliner, while the seat inserts are color-matched to the instrument panel accent trim, giving the cabin the detailed appearance of a larger, more upscale sedan.
New exterior colors include Cyber Gray Metallic, Champagne Silver Metallic and Atlantis Blue Metallic.
Cruze standard and available features
All Cruze interiors include premium materials and unexpected standard equipment, including air conditioning, vehicle anti-theft system, USB port, adjustable steering wheel with audio controls, AM/FM stereo system with CD player, MP3 playback capability, six speakers, auxiliary jack for personal playback devices, two power outlets, remote keyless entry and a trial subscription to SiriusXM Satellite Radio.
A sporty RS Appearance Package is available on LT and LTZ models. It includes unique fascias, rocker moldings, rear spoiler and fog lamps. An uplevel instrument cluster includes chrome accent rings in place of the standard silver finish, and opaque cluster bezels that allow the cluster's ice blue backlighting to shine through for a sporty nighttime appearance. On the 1LT model, the Z-link rear suspension.
The Enhanced Safety Package is available on LT, Eco and LTZ models and includes Side Blind Zone Alert, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and rear park assist.
A power, sliding sunroof also is available on LT and LTZ Cruze models.
Chassis and suspension
The Cruze features a strong body structure and chassis system that enabled engineers to more precisely tune the chassis for comfort and driving control. StabiliTrak electronic stability control with traction control, rollover mitigation and anti-lock brakes are standard.
Additional features include a MacPherson strut front suspension and, available on 1LT and standard on 2LT and LTZ, a rear suspension with a technically advanced Z-link design. It helps deliver a more balanced driving experience, as the rear suspension better follows the lead of the front suspension.
Rack-mounted electric power steering is standard on all models. It helps with Cruze's excellent fuel economy because it removes the conventional power steering pump from the engine's driven accessories.
Cruze is equipped with a family of 16-, 17- and 18-inch wheels.
Efficient, proven powertrains
Cruze models sold in North America are equipped with one of two efficient four-cylinder engines and a choice of six-speed manual or automatic transmissions. At 42 mpg highway, the Cruze Eco with the manual transmission is the most fuel-efficient, gasoline-powered/non-hybrid car in America.
Standard on LS models is the 138-horsepower (103 kW) Ecotec 1.8L four-cylinder with continuously variable valve timing that optimizes performance and fuel economy across the rpm band. EPA-estimated fuel economy is 25 mpg city and 36 mpg on the highway with the manual transmission and 22 mpg city and 35 mpg highway with the automatic.
Standard on LT, LTZ and Eco models is an Ecotec 1.4L turbo. Its exhaust-driven turbocharger helps the engine perform like a larger engine when needed, but retains the efficiency of a small-displacement four-cylinder in most driving conditions.
Also rated at 138 horsepower (103kW) with 148 lb.-ft. of torque (200 Nm), the Ecotec 1.4L turbo enables a cruising range of more than 500 miles (800 km), meaning it can go longer between fill-ups.
EPA fuel economy is 26 mpg city and 38 mpg highway on LT and LTZ, and 28 mpg city and 42 mpg highway on Eco when equipped with the manual transmission. With the automatic transmission, Cruze Eco highway fuel economy increases to 39 mpg.
Backing the Cruze's four-cylinder engines are six-speed manual and automatic transmissions. Each contributes to Cruze's excellent fuel economy.
Cruze is backed by GM's five-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty – the best coverage in America.
Safety and crash-avoidance features
Cruze offers more standard safety features than any vehicle in its class, each contributing to Chevrolet's goal of protecting passengers before, during and after a crash.
Safety begins with a strong, unitized body structure that incorporates high-strength steel (HSS) in key areas to enhance strength and crash protection by helping to prevent intrusion into passenger compartment. Underbody main rails extend from the front of the structure all the way to the rear, further enhancing the body's strength and stiffness. A cross-structure beam behind the instrument panel supports the body in the event of a side-impact crash.
The new, available Enhanced Safety Package includes crash-avoidance technologies such as a rear park assist, Side Blind Zone Alert, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert.
Cruze was the first in its segment to provide 10 standard air bags , including frontal driver and passenger air bags, roof rail-mounted head curtain side air bags that help protect the front and outboard rear seating positions; seat-mounted side-impact air bags (front and rear); and front knee air bags. Other safety features include:
OnStar details
Six months of OnStar Directions and Connections service is standard on Cruze. OnStar is the global leading provider of connected safety, security and mobility solutions and advanced information technology.
OnStar's RemoteLink Mobile App allows smartphone users to control vehicle functions, access vehicle information and send directions directly to the vehicle. A new, opt-in service called FamilyLink allows subscribers to stay connected to loved ones by checking the location of their vehicle online or by signing up for vehicle location alerts.
Cruze also features new OnStar button icons. Drivers will notice an updated look for the Hands-Free Calling button, blue OnStar button and red Emergency button.

The airshow swirled around them, but they barely had time to watch. Two pumped smoke oil into Michael Goulian's Extra and John Mohr's Stearman. Several others filled pods with fireworks for Gene Soucy's Showcat and wired Roman candles to the wingtips of Bill Leff's T-6 for the night show. One had his head under the cowling of David Martin's CAP-232; another, on his cell phone, confirmed sunrise flights; and a pair of them strolled by dressed as country bumpkins.
From This Story
If it keeps airplanes flying and performers happy, they do it. They are airshow grunts: the ground crews who work behind the scenes at every airshow.
Some grunts join a team for a season, then go back to conventional jobs and lives. Others make it a career, falling in love with the airshow life, or with the performers themselves.
A number of my friends have served as grunts for their husbands. My own favorite grunt married me, in 1978, when I was flying shows in Bellanca Aircraft's Super Viking and he was Bellanca's president.
Last summer, when the show crews rolled into Oshkosh, Wisconsin, for the Experimental Aircraft Association's week-long AirVenture fly-in, I was there to watch them work. Pilot Michael Goulian and helpers Carl Paris and Chris Porter covered the grass with plywood boards and non-skid tiles, raised awnings, and set out tables and chairs to build the hospitality area where they would entertain the guests of their sponsors. The performer hangar filled with grunts and showplanes. Extras, Edges, Pittses, CAPs, a Showcat, a Stearman, a glider, an MX-2: All got washed, serviced, polished, and preflighted by the grunts. The crews also brought support planes, motor homes, pickup trucks, and an 18-wheeler filled with baggage, tools, spare parts, and everything else it takes to keep their pilots and sponsors smiling.
It looked like the circus had arrived.
At the performers' hangar, Greg Koontz's Alabama Boys lifted yellow wings into place while Koontz fastened them to his J-3 Cub. Then they hauled black-and-silver wings out of Kyle Franklin's trailer to help Franklin fasten those to his Super Cub. (Grunts from one team will help grunts from others, and some grunts work for multiple performers.)
The Alabama Boys—Fred Masterson, Walter Harvey, and Jason Hankins—drive Koontz's truck; take care of his Super Decathlon; and help out in his comedy act, playing the parts of Uncle Fred, Grandpa, and Instructor Bob. When Koontz pretends to steal the Cub, they chase and shoot him down, then coax him onto a truck-top landing platform and deliver him and the Cub to the crowd.
To crew for Koontz, Masterson takes time off from his full-time job as an electrical engineer; Harvey is retired; and Hankins, who used to do lighting and sound for concerts, works full time as a groundskeeper for Koontz's bed-and-breakfast.
"I used to go to airshows as a spectator, but I actually like working behind the scenes at the airshow more," Hankins said. "Being in the airshow business is like being part of a big family, and working with Greg is so much fun. It gets me out of the ordinary 9-to-5 job."
Later in the week, Koontz had a close call. In the middle of a low-level snap roll on top of a loop, his seat back broke and pitched him back onto the rear seat control stick. He managed to untangle himself and regain control of the Decathlon. When he landed, looking shell-shocked, his ground crew was there to help him troubleshoot the defect that could have caused a disaster.
Check and Double-Check
It was the end of the day, the crowds had left, and Chris Rudd was in the performers' hangar. The sun, near the horizon, lit up the flame-colored paint on David Martin's well-polished Breitling CAP 232 as Rudd checked its engine oil.

Leinster head coach Matt O'Connor has retained nine of his starting line-up for Saturday's Pro12 visit of title rivals Ulster to Dublin and the RDS.
Leinster head coach Matt O'Connor has retained nine of his starting line-up for Saturday's Pro12 visit of Ulster to Dublin and the RDS.
Back in from their pre-Christmas training camp with the Irish squad come Dave Kearney, Mike McCarthy and Sean O'Brien, while Jimmy Gopperth replaces Ian Madigan at fly-half.
Brendan Macken is promoted from the bench to take his place in the centre beside Noel Reid who retains his place at 12, while Rhys Ruddock replaces Kevin McLaughlin.
Zane Kirchner continues at full-back, with Luke Fitzgerald and Isaac Boss also retained at 11 and 9 respectively.
There are no changes in the front-row with Michael Bent, Aaron Dundon and Martin Moore once again selected. Leo Cullen captains the side from the second-row with Mike McCarthy partnering him.
Finally, Jordi Murphy is again named at number eight with Rhys Ruddock and Sean O'Brien completing the back row. O'Brien makes a welcome return from injury and comes in for only his second Pro12 appearance of the season.
Meanwhile, Ulster head coach, Mark Anscombe, has made nine personnel changes and three positional switches to the team that beat Zebre at Ravenhill last weekend.
Six of the seven starting backs are Ireland internationals, with Paul Marshall partnering Paddy Jackson in the half backs, Luke Marshall and Darren Cave starting in midfield and Andrew Trimble and Craig Gilroy selected on the wings.
Ricky Andrew, who played against Zebre at Ravenhill, keeps his place at full-back.
Callum Black makes his 50th appearance for the Province and starts at loosehead, with Rob Herring coming in at hooker and Declan Fitzpatrick selected at tighthead.
Lewis Stevenson wears the number 4 jersey, with Dan Tuohy returning to the second row alongside him.
Robbie Diack is named as captain for the game and moves to blindside, with Sean Doyle continuing at openside and Roger Wilson, who has recovered from injury, coming back in at number eight.
Tom Court, Ruan Pienaar and Jared Payne are named as substitutes alongside Niall Annett, Ricky Lutton, Neil McComb, Mike McComish and Michael Allen.
Form: Leinster have slipped to back to back defeats, against Northampton in the Heineken Cup and Edinburgh in the PRO12. The Leinstermen's solo defeat at the RDS since the 2012 PRO12 final was 18-22 to Ulster in this equivalent fixture last season (played on 30 March), it represents Leinster's only home defeat to a fellow Irish province since 2008. Ulster won a fifth successive game in all competitions with their 13-6 home defeat of Zebre on Friday. Ulster's only loss on the road since September was 9-17 at Scarlets on 2 November. Ulster have won their last three away games in the regular season against fellow Irish provinces. Ulster won both regular season encounters against Leinster in the PRO12 last season, but when they met for a third time in the 2013 Final (for which Ulster as top seeds nominated the RDS as their preferred venue) Leinster gained revenge with a 24-18 triumph. The Ulstermen have won only one of their eight previous visits to the RDS.
The teams:
Leinster: 15 Zane Kirchner, 14 Dave Kearney, 13 Brendan Macken, 12 Noel Reid, 11 Luke Fitzgerald, 10 Jimmy Gopperth, 9 Isaac Boss, 8 Jordi Murphy, 7 Sean O'Brien, 6 Rhys Ruddock, 5 Mike McCarthy, 4 Leo Cullen, 3 Martin Moore, 2 Aaron Dundon, 1 Michael Bent.

This close-up image of a dust storm on Mars was acquired by the Mars Color Imager instrument on NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on Nov. 7, 2007, around 3 p.m. local time on Mars. Scientists working with NASA's Curiosity rover, which is set to land on Mars on Aug. 5 PDT (Aug. 6 EDT), are monitoring Mars each day for similar small storms that could either drift over the landing site or stir up dust that moves as haze over the site.

Alex Edler Signs 6 Year Extension
Thomas Drance
January 18 2013 10:42PM
I'd like to congratulate Alex Edler on agreeing to terms on a new multi-year deal. Details to follow.— Mike Gillis (@GMMikeGillis) January 19, 2013
Probably the defining characteristic of the Mike Gillis regime has been the consistent strength of his contract work. Alex Edler's new six year thirty-million dollar contract extension which, was first announced Friday night through Mike Gillis' rarely used Twitter account, is just the latest example. Obviously the deal comes with a moderate degree of risk, but there's no questioning that this is very good deal for a very useful player.
Read on past the jump.
Let's cover the risk part first. While Alex Edler was an all-star defenseman last season and put up double digit goal totals and nearly fifty points, his defensive play is occassionally suspect and he's prone to bouts of inconsistency. This past Spring in Vancouver's first round series against the Kings for example, Edler repeatedly made incredibly frustrating and costly unforced errors like this one, or this one.
The 26 year old Swedish defenseman has also battled back spasms and a bulging disc over the past couple of years, missing the second half of the 2010-11 regular season after undergoing micro-discectomy surgery and Edler also remained on Vancouver's payroll for most of the 2012-13 NHL lockout while receiving treatment. This sort of injury is generally manageable, but it's not something you ever really recover from. Throughout the 2011-12 season Edler missed practices and even left a game last winter early because he was dealing with back spasms.
Finally, Alex Edler is untested on the right-side (and the early returns have been inauspicious). So with Edler's extension now on the books the Canucks have four primarily left-side defenseman (Edler, Keith Ballard, Dan Hamhuis and Jason Garrison) signed long-term. By the beginning of the 2013-14 season, those four players will carry a combined cap-hit of 18.3 million dollars.
Yes, I know, it's very likely that Keith Ballard will be bought out at the conclusion of the lockout shortened 2013 campaign (especially in light of this extension). But even at 14.1 million for just Edler, Hamhuis and Garrison, that's a lot of cap-space to spend on four defenseman that you're not absolutely certain will fit seamlessly onto two defensive pairings.
If you want to read Mike Gillis comment on some of those risks, Jason Botchford has the quotes. He also reports that Edler's contract will include a no-trade clause.
Now all of that said, Edler represents extraordinary value at just five-million per for six years. While it seems like he's been a Canuck forever, he's only 26 years old. Defenseman often peak in their late 20s or early 30s, so this extension locks up Edler through to his age 33 season during what should be his peak years.
Meanwhile Edler's cap-hit would represent the 24th highest cap-hit in the league this season (among defenseman, just a hair less than Dustin Bfuglien, and tied with Paul Martin). So yeah, this is another typically excellent piece of contract work by Gillis and his chief negotiator Laurence Gilman.
Let's formulate this in a different way: the Canucks basically bought six UFA years from Edler and somehow managed to do so while paying below market value. Consider the list of unrestricted free agent defenseman who will hit the open market this upcoming summer and are under the age of 30: Ryan Whitney (29), Ian White (28), Anton Babchuk (28), Ladislav Smid (26) and then a bunch of guys like Adam Pardy, Ryan O'Byrne and Mark Fistric. Yikes, right?
Alex Edler was looking at being easily the most highly coveted free-agent defenseman on the market in about six months time. It's really not difficult to imagine that he could've demanded seven million per year (and an extra year to boot) and got it in that sort of "sellers market." Instead he's locked up in Vancouver for the next six seasons, which just awesome.
Correction: this article originally attributed some Mike Gillis quotes to Ben Kuzma, when in fact the article in question was written by Jason Botchford. This is what happens when the Canucks announce a major roster move at 11:30 EST, when I've already been drinking for a couple of hours.
I don't know if I agree that he would have gotten 7 mill, but certainly north of $6, possibly $6.5.
Just an awesome deal by the Canucks, and very happy Edler is sticking around.
I wonder if his personality had an influence on him agreeing to this deal? He is a very shy/introverted person, and the Canucks are all he's known. He knows this city and the players. Maybe the pull of the familiar helped? Is this legit, or am I on crack?
January 19 2013, 11:44AM
I posted a comment in here last night with a question about Hamhuis playing right side...maybe I didnt hit "post comment"
Anyone know if Hamhuis has ever played the right side, and if so, how did he fare?
January 19 2013, 01:00PM
Yes, it is a great deal for a great defenseman. Glad he is going to stick around. Let's hope he figures out playing on the right side!

Yup I did...although not nearly as much as I did at tonights game.

The December 2009 meeting of the Emery County School District Board of Education was held at San Rafael Junior High. Supt. Kirk Sitterud presented the Utah Consolidated Application for board approval.
He explained the plan is part of No Child Left Behind and includes the district's major goals for the coming year. It is based on data from state core tests as well as perceived needs with regard to other priority issues including school climate, English language learners, highly qualified teachers, etc.
The plan also includes budget details for several programs. Members of the board asked questions and Sitterud provided clarification. The board approved the plan.
Sitterud recommended to the board that the following individuals be approved for the positions indicated, beginning their responsibilities on the dates indicated: Alan Lemons-educational assistant, fifth grade, three hour at Cottonwood Elementary started Dec. 1, 2009; Pauline Jensen-educational assistant, resource, two hour at Ferron Elementary started Dec. 2, 2009.
The board approved the monthly meeting calendar for school board meetings in 2010.
Principal Garth Johnson thanked the board for their support of education in the district. He complimented all of the faculty and staff at his school and expressed appreciation to employees in the district who assist at San Rafael, including maintenance, transportation and technology. His faculty and staff have responded to many challenges this year and continue to do a great job. President Laurel Johansen thanked Principal Johnson for his enthusiasm and positive attitude.
Sitterud recognized the recent passing of former District teacher Joyce Larsen. He also commented on the upcoming budget environment. After recent conversations with College of Eastern Utah, the district is not anticipating cuts to vocational programs at Emery High that are funded through the Applied Technology College. Discussions with members of the Legislature have resulted in the district anticipating between a 3 percent and 7 percent reduction in state funding for the next fiscal year and it is still possible that a current year funding reduction may happen..
All of this is preliminary and the district will wait for the Legislative session to conclude before making any plans.
Jared Black, business administrator, reported that another item that will be discussed by the Legislature is that of making alterations to the pension plans offered by Utah Retirement Systems. Many possibilities have been discussed but nothing will be finalized prior to the Legislative session.
He then discussed two options for the purchases of buses this year. He will bring a bid to the January meeting for approval.
Corinne Dalton presented information about a potential trip to Denver for the agricultural program at Emery High School. She will work on finalizing plans.
The January 2010 meeting was held at Cottonwood Elementary School. Sitterud presented an award plaque to member Marie Johnson for 20 years of service as a board member.
The award was originally presented to Johnson at the Utah School Boards Association convention and she was one of less than a handful of board members statewide to receive the 20 year award this year. Other members of the Board congratulated Johnson on her years of service.
Sitterud presented a revision of policy JJIB-Interscholastic Athletics. Sitterud explained that the revision is intended to clarify that elementary students are not allowed to participate in secondary athletics unless board approval is given. For example, several years ago, a team from Green River needed sixth grade students to participate in order to field a full team and the board gave approval. The main policy revision is changing the word "compete" to "participate" to clarify that even practicing with secondary teams is not allowed. The board approved the change.
Sitterud recommended to the board that the following individuals be approved for the positions indicated; Jill Anderson-secondary resource teacher at San Rafael Junior High started Dec. 7, 2009; Marlene Fausett: student tracker tutor four hours a week, Canyon View Junior High, started Jan. 4.
Sitterud reviewed a memorandum of understanding for participation in the Federal Race to the Top program. The State Office of Education is preparing an application for Utah and if Emery School District wants to participate in the program if the state is awarded funding, the board needs to approve the memorandum.
He then discussed various aspects of the Race to the Top program, giving an overview of what it would mean to participate. Each state can apply for funding, but it is anticipated that only 6-10 states will receive the funding.
He recommended board approval of the memorandum. Members of the board asked questions to clarify aspects of the program and Sitterud responded to the questions. The board approved the memorandum. Sitterud explained that Mike Kava is requesting to take six students to the 3rd annual competition in Hobbs, N.M. from Feb. 2-6. Most fees would be paid for by CEU, however the group is doing some fundraising for the trip.
The automotive program has had excellent success at this competition in the past, even though it is a junior college level competition. The trip was approved.
Principal Jim Jones of Canyon View Junior High requested approval for an overnight trip for the junior high honor choir on Jan. 22-23. The trip would involve 10 students from San Rafael and eight from Canyon View. At least three adult chaperones would be attending, including two music instructors from the district. The trip is to participate in the honor choir competition at Cottonwood High School.
Black presented a proposal for the purchase of two school buses. Two options had been discussed in the prior month meeting and he recommended that the board approve the purchase of two of the 2007 engine buses. The quote this year came in at $117,148 per bus.
He explained that $3,000 per bus will be refunded because it is for delivery expenses and the district instead has employees pick up the buses and drive them to Emery County.
Principal Dennis Jones welcomed the board to Cottonwood Elementary School. He reported on several school improvement initiatives, emphasizing that improvement is an ongoing process at his school.
The school is emphasizing the use of data to assist individual students. The PTA has been a great help to the school, organizing an at-home reading program as well as the Reflections contest.
The student action team continues to operate, giving many students the opportunity to be assigned a teacher and help with any needs the teacher has, including tutoring younger students. Some members of the student action team were able to attend a training at BYU this year.
Principal Jones thanked and recognized his faculty and staff as well as the Board of Education for their continued support of Cottonwood Elementary.
Royd Hatt and other board members thanked Principal Jones for his report, noting his enthusiasm for school improvement.
Sitterud added that Principal Jones is the chair of the Elementary Language Arts committee and does a great job with this assignment.
Sitterud recognized the recent passing of former district teacher, administrator and board member Rue Ware.
He also recognized the passing of former Ferron Elementary secretary Sharon Jensen. He invited board members to attend the USBA Legislative Day on the Hill on Feb. 5.
He also reviewed the governor's budget recommendations and gave Board members a handout with information about the counselor to student ratio.
Black briefly reported on recent data about the group medical insurance plan.
The next school board meeting will be on Feb. 3 at 7 p.m. at Huntington Elementary.

Sisters of Mercy
When the Sisters of Mercy came to Chicago in 1846, they came as educators with an established reputation for quality. Their initial endeavor in the city was Saint Francis Xavier Academy for Females, the forerunner of Saint Xavier University. The faith-inspired compassionate service and educational practice derived from their Irish beginnings blossomed into works of mercy throughout the Midwest, while the work of other Sisters of Mercy carried the community's mission of compassion and service around the world.
Catherine McAuley
The Sisters of Mercy Begin in Ireland
The leadership and vision of Mother Mary Catherine McAuley, founder of the Sisters of Mercy, who began educating girls and young women in Dublin, Ireland in the 1820's, paved the way for succeeding generations of Mercys to establish highly recognized institutions of learning throughout the English-speaking world. Catherine McAuley raised the status of women through education and training, giving them the necessary skills to earn a living and to provide for themselves. Saint Xavier University is a living testament to Catherine's vision, practical wisdom and commitment to excellence.
Catherine McAuley was a single woman approaching her fiftieth birthday when an unexpected inheritance made it possible for her to realize her dream of assisting the poor of Dublin. She used her inheritance to construct a sizable building on Baggot Street in a fashionable section of the city. She wanted to connect the rich and the poor by establishing a center where, with a few similarly concerned companions, she could provide education for girls and young women, safe shelter for young women seeking employment, and outreach to the sick in their homes. When her center opened on September 24, 1827, the feast of Mary, Mother of Mercy, she agreed to call it the House of Mercy.
Catherine's dream of assisting those in need led her beyond anything she could have imagined. Most immediately, her work led to controversy. Who were these women, working under their own management, seeming like nuns, but -- unlike nuns, who belonged behind walls in the cloister -- walking into all kinds of neighborhoods to gather students, offer shelter, tend the ill and even solicit funds to support their work?! Controversy didn't deter Catherine and her companions from the dream they'd come to share, but it did lead to a surprising conclusion. Surprising most of all, perhaps, to Catherine herself.
When some priests and then the bishop suggested that Catherine and her companions should become sisters -- nuns -- she was uncomfortable with the idea. While the little community that had gathered at Baggot Street shared life and prayer, dressed simply and spent themselves in works of mercy, Catherine was keenly aware that convent life would mean being cloistered. It would mean giving up the work to which she felt called. Catherine wasn't looking to leave "the world"; she wanted precisely to be in "the world" and of service to those in need, the kinds of people to whom Jesus had responded to with such gentleness and mercy.
Three years after the House of Mercy opened, however, Catherine and her companions came to the decision she'd never foreseen: For the sake of the work -- to lend it stability and to quell criticism -- they would become sisters. Her decision relied on the promise of the Archbishop of Dublin that he would help her secure Church approval for a new form of religious life for women -- as sisters, they would remain free to continue the works of mercy in the outgoing style in which they had begun. Accordingly, Catherine and two companions went to the Presentation Sisters for training as sisters while the work at Baggot Street continued under the care of the other women serving there. On December 12, 1831, Catherine McAuley, Elizabeth Harley and Mary Ann Doyle professed the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience at the Presentation Convent in Dublin and hurried back to Baggot Street where others were waiting to begin their own journey into religious life.
Thus the House of Mercy became home to the Sisters of Mercy, a new congregation of women religious who, in time, added a fourth vow -- a vow of service -- to their lifelong commitment to Christ and to his sisters and brothers in need of education, health care and relief from poverty. As they continued to walk among those they served, the Sisters of Mercy experienced the transformation of early criticism into an admiring nickname -- the "walking sisters."
Practical and realistic, as well as visionary, Catherine McAuley quickly recognized that education and religious instruction, care for the sick, and a merciful response to poverty were needed in places far from Dublin and even beyond Ireland. When asked to send sisters to respond to such needs, she did so as often as possible. The result was the quick spread of the Sisters of Mercy through Ireland, to England, and shortly after Catherine McAuley's death in 1841, to America.
Frances Xavier Warde
The Sisters of Mercy Come to the United States
In 1843, Mother Frances Xavier Warde and six sisters braved the Atlantic Ocean to establish the Sisters of Mercy in the United States. This band of pioneers was enroute to Pittsburgh, a city that became a well-spring from which the Sisters of Mercy spread to many regions of the young nation. Hidden in the future and certainly beyond Frances Xavier Warde's imagination as she first stepped onto American soil was the fact that by the time of her death in 1884, she would have established over 82 Mercy convents, schools, hospitals, orphanages,and other works of mercy in some 20 cities across nine states.
As she and her companions disembarked in New York in December 1843, however, Frances Xavier Warde's attention was fixed on the moment and on those waiting on the dock to meet her and the sisters. Among those present was Bishop William Quarter, recently appointed to the newly created diocese of Chicago. An educator himself, Bishop Quarter wasted no time asking Frances Xavier Warde to send sisters to his frontier diocese to open schools for children and young women. Frances Warde urged patience, but she didn't forget.
Patience, and Bishop Quarter's renewed requests, brought the Sisters of Mercy to Chicago in 1846. Mother Frances Xavier Warde accompanied the group of five she'd chosen to serve in this western outpost. Among them were Mother Agatha O'Brien, superior; two novices still in training to be Sisters of Mercy; and two young women just joining the community. All were under age 25. Only one -- Agatha, who'd come from Ireland with Frances Warde -- had made her vows. They were young and inexperienced but also zealous and capable.
Agatha O'Brien
The Sisters of Mercy Thrive in Chicago
Within three weeks of their arrival, the first five Sisters of Mercy in Chicago had opened Saint Francis Xavier Academy for Females, named to honor Mother Frances Xavier Warde and her patron, Saint Francis Xavier. Chartered by the State of Illinois on February 27, 1847, the fledgling Academy was granted the power, among other rights, to "confer on such persons as may be considered worthy, such academical or honorary degrees as are usually conferred by similar institutions." It was a charter that would see the institution into an unimagined future.
Though education, including establishment of the first parochial schools, was their first service to Chicago, the Sisters of Mercy were soon engaged in other works of mercy. They visited the sick in their homes and the inmates in the city jail. They nursed in temporary epidemic hospitals and cared for the children orphaned by the waves of cholera and typhoid that swept the city. By 1852, the sisters had built Mercy Hospital and Orphan Asylum, the city's first permanent general hospital. As in Dublin, the Sisters of Mercy in Chicago provided safe shelter for working women or those seeking employment and held night school classes to help laborers become literate and grow in understanding their Catholic faith. From Chicago, Mother Agatha O'Brien and those who succeeded her responded to requests from other dioceses and parishes, sending sisters to other locations in Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin.
And Today
The Sisters of Mercy Serve Around the World
The original endeavors of Catherine McAuley in Ireland, of Frances Xavier Warde in the United States, and of Agatha O'Brien in Chicago are now carried on by sisters and associates and colleagues in over 40 nations on all the continents except Antarctica. The original House of Mercy on Baggot Street in Dublin is now the International Centre of the Sisters of Mercy, a place that welcomes Mercy-related visitors from all over the world. The original Chicago Sisters of Mercy are now part of the Institute of the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas, based in Silver Spring, Maryland, with sisters serving in
Argentina, since 1856
Chile, since 1965
Guatemala, since 1971
Honduras, since 1959
Panama, since 1959
The Philippines, since 1954
Belize, since 1883
Guam, since 1946
Guyana, since 1894
Jamaica, since 1890
Peru, since 1962
The United States, since 1843
Closer to home, their early endeavors in Chicago continue to characterize the Sisters of Mercy and their service in the greater metropolitan area today. Saint Xavier Academy for Females grew and thrived, becoming today's Saint Xavier University and Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School. Mercy Hospital and Orphan Asylum is today's Mercy Hospital and Medical Center, serving Chicagoans from its main campus near McCormick Place and from satellite clinics in many central city and southside neighborhoods. Care for orphans segued through the decades, becoming care for physically and mentally handicapped children in the early twentieth century and continuing in a more expanded form at today's Misericordia Home on the far northside. The early concern about safe and decent housing continues today through Mercy Housing Lakefront, which manages more than 1,400 service-enhanced family and single occupancy housing units in the Chicago metropolitan area.
More important than the multiple ministries of the Sisters of Mercy, however, or their spread to locations around the world, is the reality that Catherine McAuley's original vision, Frances Xavier Warde's amazing zeal, and Agatha O'Brien's practical generosity are now shared by thousands of Mercy colleagues who take the works of mercy into the world, offering education, religious instruction, care for the sick and a merciful response to poverty wherever need calls out for justice and compassion.

Do you think there has to be a simpler way to wash cloth diapers than to have 3 different kinds of laundry detergent, dryer sheets for some, dryer balls for others way to wash cloth diapers? There is. Let me let you in on a little secret... Yep. They really do. I've been using Tide on all of our laundry for almost a year now, including cloth diapers, and I've only stripped one time. Once. Because I wanted to. For the first year that I used cloth diapers, I made my own Cloth Diaper Detergent. I struggled with stink issues, but the detergent worked. I just had to strip the diapers every month or so to really get the funky smell out - nice, huh? The thing is - other detergents do work. I've had personal experience with most of the cloth diaper safe detergents … [Read more...]

Alternative Title: sewage treatment
Wastewater treatment, also called sewage treatment, the removal of impurities from wastewater, or sewage, before they reach aquifers or natural bodies of water such as rivers, lakes, estuaries, and oceans. Since pure water is not found in nature (i.e., outside chemical laboratories), any distinction between clean water and polluted water depends on the type and concentration of impurities found in the water as well as on its intended use. In broad terms, water is said to be polluted when it contains enough impurities to make it unfit for a particular use, such as drinking, swimming, or fishing. Although water quality ...

TUPELO – Elvis fans lined up for tickets to the Tupelo Elvis Presley Festival on Tuesday morning, despite a cold rain and temperatures that flirted with the freezing mark.
Fans bundled up in hats, coats, gloves, blankets and even Elvis-inspired sunglasses outside the Downtown Main Street Association office. Tickets went on sale at 9 a.m., but Dot Lyons and Sudie Turner, both of Tupelo, were first in line at 4:45 a.m.
"This is the coldest it's ever been," Lyons said. "I haven't been too cold because I've got on too many layers of clothes."
The friends sat in their cars for a while to keep warm and later moved to two lawn chairs outside the office doors.
The Downtown Main Street Association provided free coffee and set up a tent so fans could be more comfortable.
The tickets that went on sale Tuesday morning were for the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist competitions and tribute artist concerts, sold as VIP packages.
The All Elvis package is $155, and the All Elvis package with the Sunday gospel show is $175.
Tupelo's previous tribute artist winners will return to perform at the Lyric this year, including Cody Slaughter, Brandon Bennett, Bill Cherry and more.
These concerts have sold out for the past three years, said Debbie Brangenberg, director of the Main Street association.
Tickets for individual concerts will go on sale Feb. 5, if there are any tickets left.
The festival also includes concerts at Fairpark. This year those shows will be headlined by Cowboy Mouth on June 7 and Montgomery Gentry on June 8.
The rest of the lineup for those shows is still being determined, and after those are announced, those tickets will go on sale. Brangenberg said they hope to have the Fairpark tickets on sale in February. Get more information at tupeloelvisfestival.com.

Gatlan Huntington pitched his second straight complete game, got his second straight win and continued his streak of 12 innings without giving up an earned run as Emery traveled to Roosevelt and defeated Union 5-3 in a preseason baseball game. After having pitched a 5-inning no hitter last week against Alamosa, Colo., Huntington came back this week and allowed six hits but no earned runs in the win.
Emery scored a single run in the first inning as Taylor Tanner led off the game with a walk and Ryne Jones followed that up with a single. Blake Mortensen got hit by a pitch to load the bases and Tanner scored as a pitch also hit Derrick Allred. Emery was unable to get anybody else home.
Emery was able to score three runs in the third inning. Tanner and Skyler Jensen walked to lead off the inning and Jordan Gee brought those two and himself home with a homerun.
Emery's last run scored in the fifth inning as Allred doubled and scored on a single by Huntington as the pitcher gave himself an insurance run.
In the ball game, Emery picked up four base hits, five walks and had five batters hit by a pitch.
Union scored their runs in two innings. They scored 2 runs in the bottom of the first inning after an Emery error and scored their last run in the bottom of the fourth inning after another Emery error.
Emery will have two games this week. Emery will travel to Uintah on Thursday and will open region 8 play with two games at Juan Diego on Friday.

"I'm happy with all our Vietnam shows -- probably because I'm always so ludicrously happy to be there. I could just watch the B-roll from those shows all day. It's a good place to work, a good place to eat. A good place to be." -- Tony Bourdain
"The 2006 Beirut show obviously holds a special place in the memories of all who were involved. Like the war that broke out around us, it happened unexpectedly. That experience changed those of us who were there. And it changed subsequent shows. We never, from that point on, forgot how arbitrary life and death can be, and how harsh life can be for the people we leave behind when we head safely home with our cameras." - Tony Bourdain
"Harvey Pekar. We wanted to celebrate and step inside the life of Cleveland's greatest chronicler in the style of American Splendor. It took a lot of work and pre-production to do that. But I'm very proud of the result. Not least because I believe so fervently that the late, great Pekar was a uniquely American, wonderful and important man whose life deserves celebrating and remembering. My love for Cleveland is absolute. I may not love it for the reasons some might like -- but I love it just the same. I am honored that Harvey, may he rest in peace, liked the show." -- Tony Bourdain
Hong Kong, particularly the scene where a third-generation noodle maker practices his craft, rocking painfully and disfiguringly on his bamboo pole under the faded photos of his parents, encompassed everything I believe to be good and true about people who choose to make food the very best they can. It was a beautifully shot and edited sequence -- one of our very best. If our show is principally in the business of celebrating cooks -- wherever they may cook -- and in whatever circumstances -- then this was as good an example of our work as we could ask for." -- Tony Bourdain
"Montana, which opens with the great American author and poet Jim Harrison reading from his work, would have been a proud achievement for that alone: Jim Harrison is in it. That's enough. But it's also where I started to look at those parts of America so different than my own -- cowboy country, gun country, red state, Palin bumper sticker America , with a genuine affection I'd previously only felt for Vietnamese and South Americans and Europeans." - Tony Bourdain
"Sardinia was a risky show, because it was so personal, and I had a whole new Italian/Sardinian family looking over my shoulder -- and more perilously -- I had chosen to include my wife. My wife's father's family in the mountain towns of that incredibly beautiful island were the best "fixers" any one could have hoped for. The cinematography was incredible. And the editors, in spite of the fact that I was sitting in their laps for much of the cut and making their lives miserable, responded with a beautiful and heartfelt love letter to what is for most people an unfamiliar culture." - Tony Bourdain
"Venice was where we were really hitting a golden period for cinematography, I think. Using film lenses and adhering to a stylebook shamelessly lifted from works like Don't Look Now and The Comfort of Strangers, we'd do things like wake up very early in the morning to shoot in Piazza San Marco -- intending to make the usually crowded Venice look empty and haunted. It's an example of a show that came out just as we'd planned, looked and sounded like we wanted it to, and it also had the advantage of being filled with great characters and food." - Tony Bourdain
"Probably my favorite show of all of them. My proudest achievement. Why" Because it was so suicidally stupid. Because no one wanted it. Because everybody thought it was a bad idea to do a show in Rome—that most beautiful and colorful of cities—in black and white. : Instead of run and gun hand held cameras and fast editing, we shot stationary, with film lenses. Instead of no lighting and barely acceptable sound, we lit as if in a studio, made frequent use of subtitles." - Tony Bourdain
"It was the most important restaurant in the world -- in its last days. And the greatest culinary artist of this or last century, Ferran Adria, had agreed to open his life and his kitchen to us. So it was important to get it right. We threw everything we had at it. Every camera, every technical innovation -- every creative idea we could come up with. We got the right guy -- the best guy -- Jose Andres -- to come along and show us, through personal reminisces, what it all meant -- and why it was important." - Tony Bourdain
"Our last in a series of Holiday Specials was a high watermark of sorts. It has always been my belief that the pursuit of excellence in television is impossible if one does not regularly seek to cause terror and confusion at one's network. The network's sweetheart, Samantha Brown, playing herself as a crazed, vengeful, alcoholic and homicidal shut-in, pumped a bullet into my leg (spraying blood on a stuffed kitten) between pouring schnapps into a bowl of Fruity Pebbles." - Tony Bourdain
"The pig slaughter and boucherie in the Cajun Country show is a personal favorite. It starts with a prayer. And it's a scene I'm most grateful to the network for -- for leaving it alone. Pretty disturbing stuff to see a pig shot close-up to the brain. It's ugly, and painful. But that's what happens when you take a life for your dinner. And somebody, somewhere does -- every time you order a pork chop. We always work extra hard whenever we shoot in New Orleans or Louisiana -- to do right by them -- as they have been egregiously failed by so many others. Also, we love the place ferociously." -- Tony Bourdain
"Blanca – post-scene with Brandon Hoy and Chef Mirachi." -- Tony Bourdain
"With fishermen Frankie, Tony and Captain Vinnie, who appears to be wondering who I am." -- Tony Bourdain
"Ralphie Balzano taking me for a ride in the Buick. We could be brothers." -- Tony Bourdain
"Yes, in my head I'm pretending I'm in The Wire right now." -- Tony Bourdain
"With 'Omar Little' and 'Marlo Stanfield' at Gloria's -- they look cool. I look like an excited child." -- Tony Bourdain
"Tragically, I'd never been on the Cyclone at Coney Island before this show." -- Tony Bourdain
"Here, I'm refusing to get off the Cyclone because I'm having so much fun." -- Tony Bourdain
"Cameraman Jeremy Leach is struck dumb by the beauty of Brooklyn Fare's chef's table." -- Tony Bourdain
"And that, ladies and gents, is a wrap!" -- Tony Bourdain

- The lynch-pin in the power projection strategy of the United States is a completely transformed U.S. Atlantic Command (USACOM). The authors recommend that USACOM should be further transformed into a "Joint Forces Command." Their analysis exposes the need for a significant review of Title 10 of the U.S. Code and a reexamination of some of the fundamental tenets underlying the structure and command.

Yesterday I posted heart-shaped sugar cookie sandwiches. Cute as they were, they were not my real Valentine's Day dessert. I've been working on a recipe for my real romance food for weeks—and today I was supposed to have a recipe for chocolate-dipped candied orange slices to share with you.
Oranges are in season now (no, not in Maine, silly), so I've been buying 8 pound bags for $5.99. For Valentine's Day, I wanted to create an elegant grown-up candy with a bite. I love dark, bitter chocolate paired with sour citrus.
Unfortunately, candying whole orange slices is not as easy as the food bloggers would have you believe: in the last three weeks, I've made soggy, sticky orange slices, rock-hard orange slices, and disintegrated orange slices. You must blanch the slices to soften the peel (and remove pesticides if your oranges aren't organic), but the softer orange flesh can't handle such rough treatment. This recipe, which involves soaking sliced oranges in a saturated sugar solution, seems to yield good results, but you and I would have had to start in January in order to have candied orange slices ready for Valentime.
In the end I gave up on candying whole orange slices and did only the peels. I blanched strips of peel twice, stewed them in simple syrup for an hour, and left them out to cool and stiffen overnight (there's a complete tutorial at Smitten Kitchen, so I won't repeat it here). Then I coated them in dark chocolate.
These candied orange peels are a perfect balance of sweet, bitter, and sour, smooth with a surprising crunch of crystalized sugar. They are not the sort of cutesy pastel candies you taped to your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles valentines in fifth grade; you could totally seduce somebody with these.
Whether you're planning to get romantic this weekend, or watch the Olympics in your pajamas with your cat, treat yourself to something yummy and out of the ordinary.

"Beautiful shoe but what I have learned the hard way (3rd pair of Nina shoes) is that you must size up and probably an entire size. They run small overall. it's not the shoe, it's the brand. I thought these were studs for some reason but probably should have looked more closely..they are crystal like. Again, pretty...dazzling shoes, just size up."

"This is my second pair of Chuck Taylor Classic Converse sneakers and, yet again, they never disappoint. Wanting to try the high top style, I selected Beach Glass; a mint chocolate chip green that is a trendy color for the spring and summer. Everything about these shoes I love from the vintage Chuck Taylor logo, to the soft pastel color. Helpful trending tips: you can choose colored laces that compliment the original green to switch things up from the boring white, or pair these bad boys with some dainty lace-trimmed ankle socks to give them a more girly vibe that coordinates well with floral sun dresses."

Comments: This shoe is uncomfortable. There's an inner seam at the top of the tongue near the toes which makes
the feel very uncomfortable. I sent them back as there was no way I could wear them.
From: Julie, 10/14
Comments: Disappointed in the durability of this shoe. I play 3 times a week on hard courts and had to use inserts
about a month after I got these shoes. No support and hard on the joints.
From: Stephanie, 6/14
Comments: The durability is poor.The heel as the toe area on the sole wore off in the first month of play and I play
times a week on hard courts.
From: Victoria, 12/13
Comments: This shoe looks amazing and fits true to size, but it definitely requires breaking in. I switched from the
Nike Zoom Courtlite to this shoe thinking they would be similar in comfort and weight, but this shoe is extremely uncomfortable
compared to the Courtlite. I had to bend it around a few time to be able to even walk around comfortably, and I ended up
the insoles of the Courtlites with these so that I could be comfortable at all. There's a sort of weird bump around the toe area
that makes this shoe a little awkward to wear. Again, they look great and are light, but if you are going for comfort, you'll
have to invest in another insole.
