Man it was close! In fact it was so close that you could almost taste it. The Emery High Lady Spartans were less than a minute away from the 3-A State championship when their dream started to escape. Emery was leading the number one ranked Canyon View Falcons by 4 points and had the ball in their possession when the Falcons pulled off a miracle. Canyon View scored 4 points in that final minute versus none for Emery and the game went into overtime.
In that overtime Canyon View scored 3 points versus only a single basket by Emery's Rachel Rasmussen and the dream died on a wild last second shot taken by Camille Fehlberg from the corner. Emery lost 38-37.
Emery started the week with a game on Thursday against the Pine View Panthers, a team that had embarrassed the Spartans with a loss in December in St. George. Emery easily got revenge. They won the game in a blowout this time 68-43.
The word for the day was steals and that was what the Lady Spartans did with one steal after another. Thirty seconds into the game, Pine View called time out as they were down 6-0 and could not even get the ball to half court. Emery so harassed the Panther point guard that along with 15 steals by the Spartans, they also threw the ball away another 10 times in the game.
Behind Alexis Swasey's 8 first quarter points, Emery took the early lead at 17-8. Emery then allowed Pine View to hang around in the second quarter as they outscored Emery 17-15.
Emery put the Panthers away with a 20-4 third quarter as Emery did everything right and did not allow their opponent to do anything. Emery had almost a 30-point lead before the subs went into the game to close it out.
Leading scorers in the game were Alexis with 15 points, Jodie Lundell with 12 points and Camille with 11 points. Also scoring were Rachel with 7 points, Meagan Pearson and Shala Pitchforth with 6 points, Ashley Hansen with 5 points, Callie Seeley with 4 points and Tahna Merrell with 2 points.
On Friday, the Spartans played Morgan. Morgan has been in the last three championship games and are considered a top-notch program. Emery got out to the early lead as Ashley scored 9 points in the opening quarter. Pressure defense again allowed the Spartans to take control of the game from the outset. Emery had 14 more steals in this game plus they caused 8 more Trojan turnovers. Emery scored 21 points in each of the first two quarters while Morgan scored 16 points in each of those quarters.
Morgan started the second period on a 7-3 run to jump back into the game but Emery responded with an 8-0 run to lead 32-23. After Emery led 57-45 at the end of the third period, Morgan cut the deficit to 59-54 before Emery closed out the game on an 8-5 run to win 67-59.
Camille led the Spartans with 22 points including hitting 15 of 16 free throws. Camille also had 8 assists, 7 steals and 5 rebounds.
Jodie scored 21 points, as she was 5 for 8 from behind the 3-point line. Jodie also had 6 rebounds and 4 steals. Ashley finished the game with 13 points. Alexis, Shala and Rachel also scored in the game.
On Saturday the Spartans were slow getting out the starting gate, as they were tentative on both offense and defense. It appeared that the players were a little awed about being there in the championship game. Canyon View led 8-4 after the first quarter. Emery hit only 1 of 6 shots in that period, collected only 3 rebounds and had only 2 steals.
The second period was not much better as they hit only 3 of 12 shots and trailed 19-10 at the half. Both teams played very deliberate offense and this is not Emery's type of game. As a team you have got to do those things that got you here and this style was not Emery. You cannot be tentative to get back into the game, you must be assertive.
Emery got back into the game by being more effective in the third quarter. Emery hit 6 of 11 shots while holding Canyon View to 2 of 9. Emery now trailed 27-25. Emery scored 10 of the first 14 points in the final period to grab that lead that they then let slip away. The Spartans only had 2 turnovers in that final period but they were huge. In a game with very few fouls being called, the Spartans were snake bit as those turnovers turned into the Falcons last four points.
Should fouls have been called, probably. Camille was double teamed and stripped of the ball right and it appeared that she was mugged on the play but no call was made.
In overtime, again it appeared that Camille was knocked to the ground twice and no fouls were called. I understand not wanting someone to win a game because of a referee's call but I also understand that if somebody fouls in order to steal the ball, then that foul should be called. Nobody should have an unfair advantage.
Camille led the team in scoring with 14 points. Rachel had 9 points, Ashley had 8 points, Shala had 4 points and Alexis finished with 2 points.
Congratulations should be given to this team as they gave us all a season that was enjoyable, exciting and pleasurable. This team was the early season favorite before their star player went down for what we thought would be the year. Natalee Hanson's knee injury may have hurt the team at first but then every other player stepped up their efforts to fill the gap and they did a really good job. Natalee did return for a few games and contributed to the team.
She may not have contributed much in statistics but she led the players in team spirit and determination. This team won 20 ball games with a style a Salt Lake newspaper called "fun and gun."
Thanks Lady Spartans, you made my day. You may not have won the game but you are all champions in my book.

Goggle Technology
- Triple Layer Face Foam
Overlooked by the competition, face foam is an essential component to a properly fitting goggle. Electric uses multi-layered face foam for superior performance, increased comfort, and a tight seal. The foam has moisture wicking properties, and is used with hypoallergenic polar fleece.
- Frame and Nose Bridge Slits
Frame and nose bridge slits allow for maximum frame flexibility and provide you with optimal fit and comfort.
- Dual Lens
Electric uses dual lens construction to create a climate controlled environment within your lens. This creates a sealed space and a thermal barrier between the inner and outer lens to prevent fogging in all conditions.
- Frame Ventilation
Creating air flow without turbulence ain't easy. The position of the frame vents and the density of the vent foam both play a crucial role in the success of this feature. Each frame has been engineered for maximum airflow to keep hot air moving up and out slowly while keeping your eyes from watering and your lens fog-free.
- Thermoplastic Urethane
Retains maximum flex in extremely low temperatures, is abrasion resistant, and has a high tensile strength.
Lens Technology
- Inner Lens / Pressure Valve
High altitudes can cause pressure to build up between the inner and outer lens which can distort optical clarity. Electric uses a directional valve to relieve pressure at varying altitudes ensuring proper visual performance.
- A/R Coating
Anti Reflection coating is a super thin treatment that is characterized by a soft violet mirror which is applied to the inside of the goggle lens. This is used to prevent light from reflecting off the back surface of the lens into the wearer's eye. Electric's AR coatings dramatically reduce the reflecting light resulting in improved comfort for your eyes.
- Anti-Fog
All Electric goggle lenses are treated with a hydrophobic Anti-Fog coating. This absorbs moisture before fog can form on the inner lens.
- Hard Coating
Hard coatings are applied to the outer lens in order to create a proper seal against the elements and protective barrier against the scratching of your lens.
- Lens Ventilation
Increased airflow creates a climate controlled environment that can reduce fogging and condensation on your inner lens. Electric's lens vents are engineered to promote proper airflow and effectively eliminate fogging.

Training Camp Notebook: Day 8
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Aug 3 2012 7:13PM
In the sweltering heat at St. John Fisher College, the Buffalo Bills wore on with another day of work at training camp
After Tyler Thigpen had stepped up his game and had his best practice of camp so far, did Vince Young do the same on Friday?
Let's take a look at some notes from the practice session:
- Practice MVP: QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. I don't think I've talked about him a bunch in the wrap-ups, just because there's no competition for his job and he's been doing relatively well throughout training camp. On Friday however, it seemed like he was hitting more tough throws than usual. Clutch back shoulder throws to his receivers, fitting the ball in to the tightest of spots to Scott Chandler and having a command of the offense while putting the players in the spots they should be on a given play… all of these added up to one of Fitzpatrick's better performances.
- Practice LVP: WR Marcus Easley. The wide receivers for the Buffalo Bills had a major case of the drops, to which Chan Gailey confirmed after practice. Gailey called it unacceptable. While Easley isn't the only offender, he earned LVP honors for getting chewed out by the head coach during team drills. The first-team offense was in a red zone situation, and Easley had worked his man to think he was going inside, and would have had a touchdown right at the goal line had he ran the proper route. Easley didn't run the right route. Fitzpatrick saw the play developing, anticipated where Easley would be and placed it perfectly to where the wideout could have caught it for six. Instead of breaking out, he stayed on his path and heard an earful from Gailey as he walked back to the huddle.
- Marcell Dareus might be unblockable in 1-on-1 drills against the offensive linemen. He ate Kraig Urbik for lunch during the exercise, easily snapping past the guard/center to get to the quarterback. If he gets as many one-on-one's in the game as I think he may because of the presence of Mario Williams, Kyle Williams and Mark Anderson, Dareus could be in line for not just a big year. He could have a huge season.
- During the day of one of his second-team rep practices, Vince Young had his strongest outing yet. He was hitting receivers in stride and making the right reads at a higher rate than he has been. While I wouldn't consider it to be a spectacular practice, Young is certainly moving in the right direction, much like Thigpen did on Thursday.
- I had a premonition ahead of practice to ask Gailey if they might think about using either Cordy Glenn or Chris Hairston at right tackle with Erik Pears continuing to miss team drills. My line of thinking was that Sam Young wasn't exactly who they wanted to be getting all this time with the first team, understanding that he's on the bubble to make the 53-man squad. As it turns out, Gailey beat me to the punch of my question. Hairston started taking reps at right tackle just in case Pears is out for a longer period of time. He looked good while doing it against defensive end Kyle Moore, who has had a strong camp in his own right.
- Backup safety Nick Saenz stood out a bit to me on Friday. He put himself in good positions to make plays for the second team defense against the Vince Young-led squad. He broke up one play and could have had an interception had he played the ball rather than played the man's hands. If the Bills don't sign a veteran safety before the season begins, Saenz is the favorite to make the 53-man roster if they elect to keep four safeties. He's an undrafted free agent out of Houston.
- Heading in to camp, I thought Dorin Dickerson had a real shot to make the team. I no longer feel the same way. As camp has continued, Dickerson has been looking slower, lost and is dropping passes that are hitting him in the hands. When you're trying to unseat a veteran player like Corey McIntyre for a roster spot, you have to earn it. Dickerson hasn't. There is still time, but he's been unimpressive in Pittsford.
Injury Notes:
- Stevie Johnson missed some team reps due to tightness in his groin. Not the side he had surgery on, but the other one. Kelvin Sheppard returned to team drills in full on Friday. Eric Wood had the most team reps that he's had throughout training camp. Chan Gailey thinks Wood is progressing quite well.
- Justin Rogers, Bryan Scott, Josh Nesbitt, Mike Caussin, David Nelson and Chris Kelsay all did not participate in any capacity. Meanwhile Mark Anderson and Erik Pears went through individual drills, but did not take part in team drills.
- Terrence McGee is coming along slowly… very slowly. Gailey said there haven't been any breakthroughs, only small gains.
- Kamar Aiken returned to practice after missing the last few.
The Bills get back in to action on Saturday at St. John Fisher College. Practice starts at 3 pm and is open to the general public.

State parks are popular places for people and groups to hold a wide variety events (weddings, scout jamborees, festivals, rendezvous, triathlons, fun runs, etc.) A special event permit is required when the event is an organized race, tournament, exhibition, demonstration or other planned event in which a fee is charged, prizes are awarded or competition occurs between participants. A special event permit is also required for any other planned event that, due its nature, potential or actual size, or length, would likely adversely impact the use of the area by the public. NOTE: Special events that take place solely within a reservable day-use lodge or shelter structure, do not require a special event permit. The person or group holding the event must reserve and pay the appropriate rental fee for the facility that will be used.
At least 30 days before the scheduled date of a special event, an application must be submitted to the DNR using the Special Events web-based application found at https://programs.iowadnr.gov/specialevents/.

Paul Brach Lecture Series: Julieta Aranda and Anton Vidokle of e-flux
ART: Julieta Aranda was born in Mexico City, currently lives and works between Berlin & New York. Central to Aranda's multidimensional practice are her involvement with circulation mechanisms and the idea of a "poetics of circulation"; the possibility of a politicized subjectivity through the perception and use of time, and the notion of power over the imaginary.
Anton Vidokle was born in Moscow and arrived to the U.S. in 1981, settling on Broome Street on the Lower East Side. In 2005, Vidokle initiated research into education as site for artistic practice as co-curator for Manifesta 6, which was canceled. In response to the cancellation, Vidokle set up an independent project in Berlin called Unitednationsplaza (2006-2007) — a twelve-month project involving more than a hundred artists, writers, philosophers, and diverse audiences. Located behind a supermarket in East Berlin, UNP's program featured numerous public seminars, lectures, screenings, performances and various projects. In 2008 Unitednationsplaza travelled to Mexico City and was hosted by PAC, and opened in New York's New Museum for Contemporary Art under the name Nightschool (2008 - 2009).
In 2008, with Brian Kuan Wood, Aranda & Vidokle founded the e-flux journal - a monthly online publication on art and critical theory. During the past three years, the journal published 36 issues containing more than 250 essays by writers such as Steyerl, Rosler, Gillick, Groys, Berardi (Bifo), Toufic, Žižek, Diedrichsen, Raqs Media Collective and numerous other contributors. Vidokle & Aranda also created a time bank for artistic community. The Time/Bank is a platform, where artists, curators, writers and others in the arts can help each other get things done without use of money, but exchanging their time and skills.
At the e-flux space in New York, Vidokle & Aranda direct a program of exhibitions that has included solo shows by Martha Rosler, Gustav Metzger, Adam Curtis, Raqs Media Collective; Mladen Stilinovic; Alan Sekula, Andrei Monastirsky & Collective Actions; as well as group exhibitions such as the Agency of Unrealized Projects, curated jointly with Hans Ulrich Obrist; Animism, curated by Anselm Franke; Out Now, with Paul Chan, Trevor Paglen, Martha Rosler, Natascha Sadr Haghighian, Rirkrit Tiravanija and Jalal Toufic.

Skip to comments.Secret U.S. program releases high-level insurgents in exchange for pledges of peace
Posted on 05/06/2012 7:51:59 PM PDT by VanShuyten
The United States has for several years been secretly releasing high-level detainees from a military prison in Afghanistan as part of negotiations with insurgent groups, a bold effort to quell violence but one that U.S. officials acknowledge poses substantial risks.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
He's also done it in such a way that not many would know about it, and he refuses to even say if he's the one who decided to do it.
"U.S. officials would not say how many detainees have been released under the program, though they said such cases are relatively rare. The program has existed for several years, but officials would not confirm exactly when it was established."
Lots more in the article.
Appeasement is always a winner when it comes to dealing with radical extremists who want to subjugate and destroy us. // sarcasm
We are so augured
This quack in the White House embraces the terrorist mooselimb cult. These people in Washington are nothing but a cluster fluge of feckless crapweamsels.
I think I get it now. Our foreign policy is being run by Monty Python.
Crap like this, Egypt handed to Islamists and Israel in jeopardy, Russia threatening to attack NATO ...
This leftist idiot Obama just might get us all killed.
Mudslimes would never lie, even though the queeranus commands them to.
Words fail me...
I don't even think Carter was this fricking STOOPID!
Danegeld works for a while, until you run out of geld — or in this case, islamopiggies.
The monsters he releases will strike at us again one day and will never buy us any good will.
There is no changing the nature of this enemy.
Obama is a fool.
Strangest use I've ever seen of the word "bold". But hey, it's all doubleplusgood.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
This leftist idiot Obama just might get us all killed.
We've never been in more danger. Never.
And the Surge in Afghanistan was for what? Let's look at the timing, from;
The leaders of the House and Senate intelligence committees said Sunday they believe that the Taliban has grown stronger since President Obama sent 33,000 more U.S. troops to Afghanistan in 2010.
Carter was indeed STOOPID, incompetent and naive. Obama knows what is he is doing and even scary in that he knows precisely what he is doing and destroying America in the process.
This is a fool's errand. At best, it will be negotiating from a point of weakness in the eyes of an intractable enemy and an ineffectual and corrupt ally (i.e. Karzai and his government). At worst, it is giving aid to that enemy.
In either case, two things come immediately to mind. First and most obviously, the released prisoners will likely go right back to what they were doing before - trying to kill U.S. and allied forces, promises or not. Secondly, those that do honor their agreement are likely to do so with the intent to periodically demand concessions, aid, or other payoffs to remain "peaceful".
However, this controversial exchange program 'has been in existence for years.'
A 100% chance of something happening is never a "risk"; it's called "a sure thing".
Appeasement is never "bold". It is always "chickensh!t".
Let's assume (yeah, I know) that there was actual thought behind this "bold" plan. What do the designers think is going to happen? Achmed is going to go back home and renounce his ingrained hatred of the "Great Satan"?
Even if he was as stupid as the crafters of this ingenious program, and was brainwashed into giving up his jihad, do they believe his fellow Muslims would listen to his pleas to stop fighting and lay down their arms??
Who's driving this @#$% bus??
People who believe this crap should watch this:
Three Things About Islam
Nobody can be this stupid.
This is just another element in Obama's fixation on the destruction of America.
The compost says "several years." Did Bush do this? Or are they saying it to suggest Bush did it and give cover to Obama?
How is that working out for them?
Why are our troops still over there?
More than 80% of the IEDs are homemade explosives using calcium ammonium nitrate fertilizer produced in Pakistan, said Navy Capt. Douglas Borrebach, deputy director for resources and requirements at the Pentagon's Joint IED Defeat Organization.
...Sen. Robert Casey, D-Pa., met with top civilian and military leaders in Pakistan in August to urge them to stop the flow of bomb-making materials into Afghanistan. They promised to help, but did not reveal a sense of urgency, Casey told USA TODAY after the trip.
The number of U.S. soldiers who have suffered amputations in Afghanistan has increased sharply over last year as more troops move into Taliban territory, according to Army data.
...The chief cause of the injuries are improvised explosive devices or IEDs that are planted in the ground or along roads, according to the International Security Assistance Force, which oversees military operations in Afghanistan.
The number of improvised explosive devices that were cleared or detonated rose to 16,554 from 15,225, an increase of 9%, according to data obtained by USA TODAY. In 2009, total IED "events," as they are known, came to 9,304.
Insurgent reliance on IEDs as their No. 1 weapon meant a rise in concussions and severe wounds to U.S. servicemembers who have been operating on foot to root out Taliban fighters in remote areas.
You know this is going to bite us in the a$$.
Well done Obama, you effed up the economy and now you effed up the WOT. You have earned the title President Dumb@$$. I congratulate you.
I'm suspicious of that wording. I wouldn't be surprised if the "journalist" wrote it that way to make it sound like this program was put in place by Bush. Yet it could have been done under Obama's watch, going back two or three YEARS.
I bet they are quaking in their boots, thinking about that.
I believe that passes for "offering aid and comfort to the enemy."
He has a death wish.
When reading this psychotic thinking, I just couldn't help but think, "What would Patton and Reagan think of this?" . . It's as if Obama is inviting the Taliban to attack. .
Yet it's true that Bush did release terrorists from Gitmo who went on to work in Al Queda cells and plot terrorist attacks. The idea that our current Great Leader would still be doing this after we already know detainee releases failed under Bush is disgusting and a disgrace.
You are right.
Are these really pledges or are they absentee voter applications?
Don't get me started on Jieddo
"Obama is a fool."
Maybe he's doing it to gain friends and influence people?
Looks like Obama's going to create the excuse he needs to close GITMO; "It's EMPTY!"
More than 2 years is "several years". You're correct in that it's worded to protect Obama by implicating Bush.
We need our people out of Afghanistan NOW!
Blame Bush.
Oh, what sting?
Hey! Anybody seen the body? Anybody?
I'm afraid even your sarcasm doesn't go far enough in the case of Obama and his ilk.
The word is not "appeasement" but outright "collaboration" - for the goal is NOT "peace" and coexisting but the destruction of what he & his ilk call the "privileges" & power of America and white/non-third-world Americans. Obama's entire biography and all his past associations speak to no other purpose.
He has and will always stand with Black against White, Muslim against Christian, the 3rd World against the West, global socialism against capitalism, etc.. Everything else that Obama and his propagandists, in and out of government, tell you to the contrary are strategic lies.
What this is all about is the Obama administration demonstrating they can be a good "go along, get along" kinda outfit ....a real player in coming world government.
They are demonstrating they are "big enough" to trash the "region they rule" for the "bigger picture". None of these parochial local sentiments.

MISSION MATTERS: Re-gifting
Give to the Most High as he has given to you,
generously, according to your means.
— Sirach 35:12
In the fleur-de-lis logo of Saint Louis University we find the phrase, Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam (A.M.D.G.), all for the Greater Glory of God. During this end-of-the-year time of review, it is good for us to reflect on the meaning of this often seen, but perhaps often-overlooked phrase at the heart of our logo and our University Mission. This is the Higher Purpose we find in our recent marketing campaign and the prime motivation for all our efforts to search for the truth, at the heart of our Mission. The Greater Glory of God is one of the criteria we should use — as St. Ignatius did — to evaluate our past efforts and prepare for the new academic year.
In our readings today, and throughout the writings of St. Ignatius, we are reminded that we give the greatest glory to God when we give the best we have to give ... the best of who we are. These gifts are, most of the time, those parts of us we may have worked hard to develop but which are primarily facets of ourselves we have received as gifts from God. We know that those things most valued by others and ourselves are not the things found in catalogues or online, but the gifts which are part of the person giving them. Though re-gifting may be frowned on by many, those gifts of ourselves may cost us the most but also have the most value. Our true gifts to others are the gifts we have been given.
So, as we reflect on the work of the past year and begin to prepare for the coming year, we need to look not only at the things that make our work possible, but the true tools — the gifts — we use. In this review, we will find that the transformational goals we strive to give our students, patients or clients come from the combined gifts of our community. The things which make the differences in the people we strive to develop and change come from the way we share with them the blessings we first were given. The most important lessons — the greatest gifts — we can give others, is a growing realization of their own giftedness and that all the gifts we receive are given to us, for others. Individually, we may not have the gifts to work effectively toward a Greater Good, but combined with all the gifts of others at Saint Louis University, we can strive confidently toward our high goal.
Our evaluation of our past year's activity and our preparation for the future may need to include our awareness of our own gifts and the gifts of those with whom we work. How often have we worked to develop these blessings in ourselves, so they are even more valued by ourselves and others? How often have we celebrated the gifts others offer us, our students, our patients our clients?
The Greater Glory of God is realized only if we give the greatest gifts we have been given. We can give of these gifts only if we try to live the mystery founded in the knowledge that only by giving these gifts away, do we receive them more fully.
In re-gifting our blessings, we retain them and increase them. The more valuable the gifts we give away, the more precious the gifts we all receive.
Have a blessed summer!

AMHERST, Mass. - For just the third time in program history, the No. 2 UMass men's lacrosse team improved to 9-0 on the season after a 15-3 win over Saint Joseph's on Saturday afternoon at Garber Field. The Minutemen started the 1981 and 2001 seasons with 9-0 records as well. Will Manny posted eight points on the day with three goals and five assists, while the UMass defense clamped down on the Hawks allowing a season-low three goals.
Along with the 9-0 overall record, UMass also improves to 2-0 in the CAA. The Minutemen will return to action next Saturday, April 7 against CAA foe Towson at Garber Field. Saint Joseph's falls to 3-6 overall and 0-3 in league play.
Manny's outing marked the fifth-time this season where he posted six points or more in a game. His five assists tied his career-high which he previously set Tuesday against Harvard.
Art Kell notched five points in the game with a pair of goals and five assists, while Anthony Biscardi tallied three goals and an assist. Connor Mooney and Colin Fellming each posted a pair of goals as well.
The defense was led by Jake Smith who caused a pair of turnovers and collected four groundballs. Tim McCormack played 49 minutes, 47 seconds in goal making 11 saves while allowing no goals.
The Hawks were led by Augustus Quinzani who scored a pair of fourth quarter man-up goals. Ryan McGee scored Saint Joseph's other goal and added a pair of assists. Griffin Ferrigan took the loss making 10 saves.
Faceoffs were the key to the game with the Minutemen winning 14-of-18 on the day. Anthony Toresco was nearly perfect going 8-for-9 while scooping up four groundballs to lead UMass.
Paced by five different goal scorers, UMass cruised to a 5-0 lead after the first quarter. The Minutemen added two in the second including a tally from Biscardi with nine seconds to go before halftime.
The Hawks started the second half with 50 seconds left on a man-up advantage, but UMass was able to kill it off. Kell scored his second of the day midway through the third quarter as UMass tallied five more goals to go up 12-0 entering the fourth.
Mooney capitalized on a pair of extra-man opportunities with a goal at the 14:44 mark and his second just 25 seconds later. Brendan Schroeder netted his first goal as a Minuteman at the 6:43 mark giving UMass a 15-0 lead.
Three penalties on the Minutemen in the final four minutes of play led to the three Hawks goals. Quinzani scored his first with 3:55 to go before adding another 28 seconds later. McGee scored with 2:12 left in the game to give the final score.

Asli and Ashley: Audacious and Angry
Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2011
She's defiant. He can't accept a youth passed by. But her rebellious stand-up and his disturbed storytelling combine into the perfect hour of fearless and compelling comedy. A must see and free!

I do really recommend this show. Watching Asli on stage was one of those rare gifts you have when living in Edinburgh during the Fringe. She received us with a big Hello!, enough to grab us from the very beginning of her show. The script is half Dadaist, half suicide, so fearless. She is comic-theatrical. More than a stand up comedian, she is a total actress. I barely remember the last time that I was in such a situation, where you would like to stop laughing (and the rest of people around you) because you cannot hear the next joke.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Green River is the home to a new sculpture. The sculpture was constructed in December 2010 by contractor Randy Erwin. The sculpture was designed by renowned Australian artist Andrew Rogers. Rogers was contacted by a lawyer at his home in Australia and asked if he would construct this sculpture in the town of Green River, Utah. Rogers hadn't been to Green River before. The lawyer who contacted him was acting in behalf of retired math teacher Herbert Steiner who owns 84 acres in Green River. He also owns parcels of land in other towns near railroad stations as he has a fascination with railroads and rode trains in his younger days. The retired teacher lives in Seattle, Wash. and has a love for Green River according to Conae Black, Green River City recorder. The land has been donated for the sculpture and other sculptures may be constructed on the site in the future. Steiner is reported to have sold some of his parcels of land in other places to pay for the Green River sculpture.
Keith Brady is a Green River businessman and on the Green River City council and on his Robbers Roost blog he included the following information about the project. "Here in Green River, Utah we had the world renowned Australian artist Andrew Rogers put together a sculpture he calls the "Golden Ratio". It is one of three in the world. It is a pyramid of blocks created according to the mathematical rule of the golden ratio. According to Wikipedia, 'In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger quantity is equal to the ratio of the larger quantity to the smaller one.' Golden Ratio in Math: This ratio, is also known as the divine proportion, golden mean, or golden section, is a number often encountered when taking the ratios of distances in simple geometric figures such as the pentagon. The Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio are intimately interconnected. Both are found in nature, for instance, a slice through a Nautilus shell reveals golden spiral construction principle, the length of the bones in a human finger, the number of pedals of a flower, the seemingly random sequence of sunflower seed, or the way the pine cone spines spiral on a closed pine cone. Why the golden ratio? The golden ratio and/or Fibonacci sequence is used in art and architecture all the time. These mathematical rules have a subtle aesthetic that makes most nature, art and architecture pleasing to the eye, so much so that we can't explain it but we like it. The sculpture can be seen from the railroad, highway and from numerous places from in town. It is an impressive structure made up of 53 blocks of enormous size each weighing approximately six tons; two of which are black and a gold leafed block to cap the top," said Brady.
Rogers has designed structures all around the world including Antarctica, Israel, Sri Lanka and India. The Green River structure is the largest he has done to date and it's as high as a four story building.
The sculpture has become a source of curiosity in Green River with visitors wondering how the sculpture came to be placed in the obscure site of Green River.

Sedu is a world-renowned beauty brand with a reputation for unsurpassed quality and reliability. Its hair styling tools have always been developed with a focus on long-term maintenance of healthy hair. Each Sedu product is designed with the professional stylist in mind and features only the essentials, striking the perfect balance between high performance and effortless results.
If It Weren't For The Cord...All in all, I love my Sedu. It heats up quickly, I can vary the heat level if I need to and my hair doesnt get caught in the plates. Sounds ideal, right? Wrong.I am now experiencing the same cord issues as other people mentioned - if the cord isnt twisted in the proper direction, the flat iron wont turn on. I believe that if youre going to spend $108 for a flat iron it should last. Sedu knows they have a faulty cord which is why they dont cover it in the warranty. I have had much cheaper flat irons last much longer. Theres no doubt that the Sedu performs beautifully, but it lacks longevity. If you decide to buy a Sedu, make sure you keep everything you need for the warranty because youll definitely need it.Apr 28, 2009Lisa / Central California

Sedu Is A Better ProductI have used the Chi, Sedu, and I recently purchased the Solia. My sister has the Sedu. I was not willing to spend as much money on a Straitener so i got the Solia, and i did not want to get the same thing because we live together. However if you want quality i really recommend the Sedu. Its a really good product. I have thick hair almost to my t and its wavy/curly. It gets the job done. I live in Texas, and it is super humid. The Solia is a good product for the money, but it leaves my ends super dry and i have to go over a cpl of times. The Sedu you do not. So if you want to spend the money get the Sedu if not get the SoliaApr 26, 2009Candise / Houston, TX

Chi And Hai Vs Sedu......sedu Wins!!!!!!!!!I have been using flat irons for about 10 years now. Ive used everyone and every brand of CHI, HAI. I even used HOT TOOLS. I think that the HAI and CHI are good and I really dont have anything bad to say about them besides that they stop working after about a year, but I used it everyday so I felt like I got good use out of them. I have always been a big advocate with them and I had always told my girlfriends to buy one because it is totally worth it. I was a little weird about buying a flat iron that wasn�t a CHI or HAI because I had never used SEDU before, but I ended up buying it and let me tell you CHI and HAI are good but SEDU is amazing my hair feels so silky, light and smooth. SEDU is also very light so my arm doesnt get tired from holding it up, and it straighten FASTER. I dont even have to use as much product in my hair either because it dosent damage your hair like the others do. I like CHI and HAI but seriously SEDU is sooo much better in everyway it can be. I love this product and will NEVER use anything but a SEDU flat iron. Wow, my review sounds like a commerical... but seriouly I have really have thick curly hair, and SEDU Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat Iron is the best thing I have ever used on my hair.Apr 25, 2009Yesenia / San DiegoHAIR TYPECurly Hair

Ohemgee(omg) Oh My Goodness!I have thick, unruly hair. This iron is the truth. I researched this iron for months. At first I was sceptical but since it came with a 30 day money back guarantee; I decided to give it a try. Ladies let me tell you; go get the Sedu Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat Iron (1"). . IT WORKS!!Apr 24, 2009Ab

It's Okay.Ive had this Sedu flat iron for about 4 months. And like a month after I got it, the plates werent closing correctly.I just now called and asked it to be replaced and I think they are going to replace it.But other than that, I think this is a reallyyy good straightner. My sister has frizzy curly curly hair and alot of it too. And this flat iron leaves her hair sooo straight and smooth!I would recommend it to anyone.:)Apr 18, 2009Brenda / Fort WorthHAIR TYPECurly Hair

Sedu = The Perfect MatchMy hair is naturally curly (I hate it like most of us curly heads) and usually it takes me 30 min using a flat iron AFTER I have already spent 20 minutes blow drying first. I timed my start time with the Sedu and it was only 11 minutes to completely straighten my hair (which I do have fine hair and it is medium length by the way)!!!! My first pass through the hair was almost euphoric like "did I just use this thing"?! It does not pull or snag your hair. I am completely and utterly in love and I dont think I will be purchasing another flat iron until I have broken this one somehow. *knocks on wood* I got the 1" and its ideal for travel too because its smaller than traditional flat irons. Almost like a mini compared lengthwise. Its also very light weight so you dont have your wrist or arms get tired. Thank you Sedu!Apr 8, 2009Sara / San Jose, CA

I Love This Straightener:)So, I got my Sedu in the mail fairly quickly, especially for standard shipping. I tried it the day I got it, and I must say, my hair is STILL straight 6 hours after I did my hair! My time wasnt "cut in half" like the box said, but my hair is REALLY soft and REALLY shiny after using my Sedu.It heats up in 20-30 seconds, and you only have to pass it through your hair once or twice to get it perfectly straight.There is no frizz, and my hair is smooth and lightweight to the touch, because I dont have to slather my hair with product in order to keep it from poofing out on me.The only con is that it gave my hair this odd smell, but it went away within 30 minutes.Apr 5, 2009Devon / Apex, North Carolina

FantasticI purchased this flat Iron recently, I absolutely love it, took me half the time as the other one I owned that is a plus as far as your hair being damaged, Looks much smoother then when I used my old one, and the price was really great. plus the free shipping was awesome...I highly recommend this flat ironMar 31, 2009Jennie / Vine Grove Kentucky

Great But Not Long Lasting...I loved my Sedu so much when I got it, and it is the best straightener I have tried. My only issue it that it doesnt have a long enough lifespan in my opinion. After about a year, it started to short out when the cord swiveled. So, I sent it in because I still had a warranty on it. I didnt have the straightener for a few weeks, which was devastating for my short, puffy hair. I got it back, however, a few months later, even though the cord no longer swiveled, it started shorting out whenever I clamped the straightener on my hair. So, although i think it is super effective at creating great straight hair, it keeps breaking for no reason and now I have to buy a new one.Mar 27, 2009Heather / Orlando, Fl

Wow! I'm Impressed!Let me start off by saying there really is no downside to this straightener. I owned a HairArt Ceramic straightener for 4 years, and when it died on me recently, I went in search of the highest quality iron. It took me a little bit to get used to how LIGHT the Sedu iron is...my old iron was pretty heavy, so at first it felt like the Sedu was not grabbing my hair very well...but I was wrong! I am a 23 year old, white female, with very THICK, semi-wavy and very much unruly brown hair. It used to take me about 30 minutes to straighten my hair, and Id have to go over it again each day until I washed my hair. With the Sedu it takes me no more than 10-15 max, and I dont have to straighten again until I wash my hair 2 days later. Not only that, but it glides through my hair so smoothly, and it NEVER pulls or rips my hair out.I purchased it on sale from Folica.com for $108 and it came with free shipping, a flat iron mat and an extended warranty. You cant beat that price!I cant comment on longevity, because Ive only had it for just under 2 weeks, but Ive loved it so far.OH! And it curls beautifully. From gorgeous ringlets, to softer waves, it takes WAY less time to curl your hair using the Sedu than with a regular curling iron. In my opinion the curls look better too. :) If you DO plan on using the Sedu to curl your hair, make sure you purchase the 1" model, not the 1.5" model. Easier to curl with the smaller one.Hope this helps any skeptical buyers! You wont regret buying this one!Mar 24, 2009Richelle / Orange County, California

I hope this helps, but I'm by no means a makeup specialist. I love the shimmer colors and apply them with a damp brush to give the foiled technique. I us all the shimmer eye colors & the eyeliner shadows as a liner. I apply it with a thick eyeliner brush (damp) that I bought from Eco tools. I apply just below my lower lashes and if the line is too thick, I wait until it's dry and then use a damp cotton swab to erase it until it's as thin as I'd like. I just added some pics and a review of the Wildflower shadow, which shows how I apply my shadow as eyeliner. I'll add it to this answer so maybe you'll see it sooner. Hope this helps and have fun with your colors. You can use them for lots of stuff. Also search google, I've even seen a how to on using BE eye shadows to make a nail polish!

One hallmark of the American experience captured in the Museum's collections is the nation's broad diversity of religious faiths. Artifacts range from Thomas Jefferson's Bible to a huge "Sunstone" sculpture carved for a Mormon temple in Illinois in 1844 to a household shrine from the home of a Pueblo Indian in the 1990s. Furniture, musical instruments, clothing, cooking ware, and thousands of prints and figures in the collections have all played roles in the religious lives of Americans. The most comprehensive collections include artifacts from Jewish and Christian European Americans, Catholic Latinos, Protestant Arab Americans, Buddhist and Christian Asian Pacific Americans, and Protestant African Americans. One notable group is the Vidal Collection of carved figures known as santos and other folk religious material from the practice of Santeria in Puerto Rico.

(September 10) Today we're celebrating . . . National Boss / Employee Exchange Day
National Boss / Employee Exchange Day
By switching places today, bosses and employees are supposed to get a better understanding of their jobs and responsibilities.
Oh baloney! I'm looking forward to this day cause while the elves have to come in nice and bright and early. I get to sleep to noon, then stroll into the office when I get around to it. I won't have to shower, shave, or even fix my bedhead hair. And of course I'll still be wearing the clothes I fell asleep in! Why I think I'll even wear that Superman cape we've got floating around the office somewhere.
And lets not forget the 2 hour lunch. Complements of the elves, of course!  Oh what poetry, what joy!

Hyundai's first foray into the US market began in 1986 with the introduction of the Excel. With an affordable price point, the car was an immediate success with American buyers. In 1988, Hyundai introduced the Sonata, marking the company's introduction into the sedan market. Like the Excel, the Sonata was a popular mid-sized vehicle with an affordable price-point.
In the 1990s, the company experienced it fair share of problems, fighting some difficult perceptions about their reputation. Hyundai fought hard to improve their production lines and repair their image. Their efforts paid off and the company began to build a new reputation – one of quality. Then in 1998, they purchased Kia, merging the two Korean auto manufacturers.
In 2001, Hyundai introduced the Elantra, which was heralded for its reliability, style, and overall quality – which continues today. Since then Hyundai has produced a line of dependable, award-winning vehicles which are affordable and attractive. Today, Hyundai's vehicle list includes a full line of 22 models, including the ever-popular Santa Fe SUV, Sonata sedan, and Elantra (which comes in several available styles).
Hyundai offers every style of vehicle on the market today, including hybrids. The Genesis (available as a coupe or sedan) has quickly become a popular vehicle, while the Accent remains a reliable subcompact with high mileage. All told, Hyundai's future looks bright, and if it's anything like the recent past it's likely to be filled with awards and acclaim.

There are three types of sponsored programs — grant, contract and cooperative agreements. There are three main types of sponsors — federal, non-profit and industry. See GIM 34 for information about classifying external support as either a sponsored project or a gift.
Before preparing your proposal, carefully read the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) / Sponsor Instructions. This will serve as your guide post when developing for your proposal. Remember to use any sponsor-provided templates.
System Access & Registration
Get access to systems early in the proposal development process.
See your department administrator for authorization or see the sponsor website for instructions regarding systems access.
UW systems authorization is managed by ASTRA (Access to Systems, Tools, Resources and Applications). It provides authorization and authentication to specified UW systems including SAGE (System to Administer Grants Electronically).
Federal sponsors have their own systems, each which may require special access and have a variety of functionality.
Internal Submissions Deadline
UW's Internal Deadlines for Proposals to Outside Agencies — GIM 19
Draft Proposal
The draft proposal, containing all business and administrative elements in final form, and attached to an eGC1, should be received by OSP at least 7 business days prior to the sponsor deadline. Concurrently, we encourage the PI and research team to take this opportunity to finalize the scope of work while the administrative review of the proposal is carried out.
Final Proposal
The final proposal including all changes per reviewer comments must be received by OSP no later than 5pm, three business days prior the sponsor deadline. Failure to send in the final proposal to OSP attached to the eGC1 and marked "Ready To Submit" will require a GIM 19 waiver.
This policy applies to all proposal submissions to external sponsors, including proposals to a collaborator in order to secure a subaward. In the case of a subaward, the sponsor's due date will be determined by the institution submitting to the originating sponsor (not the prime sponsor deadline). GIM 19 does not apply to After-the-Fact (ATF) eGC1s.
Schools & Colleges and departments may impose additional requirements regarding review and approval of sponsored programs proposals.

(November 6, 2013 – Yuma, Arizona) – Donna Gradias, Childbirth Education Coordinator and Certified Car Seat Safety Lead Technician at Yuma Regional Medical Center (YRMC) was recently named a Car Seat Hero by Kidz in Motion, a non-profit corporation for child safety passenger professionals.
Gradias was one of 700 nominees. Fifteen of these 700 were named Car Seat Heros at the 2013 national conference in Florida.
"It's a happy day for me – I was thrilled just to be nominated," said Gradias. "I do this for the benefit of Yuma County families."
On average, 97 car seats are checked each month by Gradias. She is certified through the National Child Safety Passenger Certification program through the Yuma County Safe Kids program (a coalition of Safe Kids Worldwide).
"Donna's dedication to child safety has been ongoing for 24 years," said Dorie Rush, director of Labor, Delivery, Recovery and Postpartum (LDRP). "During this time, she has performed countless car seat safety checks for the patients of YRMC and families of Yuma County. She is truly a resource for our hospital and community."
Properly securing a child in a car seat is one of the most important safety measures a parent can take. As part of YRMC's commitment to keeping children safe, it offers free car seat safety checks performed by a certified car seat technician. The free car seat checks are available by appointment only and take just about 10 minutes. To schedule your free car seat inspection, call Donna Gradias at 928-336-7058.

Sunday would be the sixth anniversary for Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes
. Think she is happier now? Watch her on Jimmy Fallon.
Is it just me? Is anyone else wishing she would brush her hair and sit up straight?ReplyCancel
Why does NBC hate Canada?ReplyCancel
i get the feeling she just wants to be a regular person no fussy stuff.
like a lot of you, i use to read the suri's burn book blog. but lately it feels different to me. not sure why. but now i think suri should be left alone to be a first grader. neither katie or tom are really doing anything to bring suri into the mix. katie does the occasional interview. think its time to let the child walk the streets w/o running commentary.ReplyCancel
She's still attractive, but yeah, she looks really frumpy in that sweater and generally unkempt hair. Though, I know she looks frumpy in her role on stage so maybe she didn't want to have to undo something nicer (?).
But she seems so much more normal/better than when she was with that nutjob.ReplyCancel
Frum-py. Does she not think that she needs to brush her hair, dress properly and wear make up on national television? Does she not realise that she is still an actress, not a PTA Mom? Get a stylist Katie, you look awful. But happy, she does look very happy at least. Which is the most important thing. I'd rather see her happy and frumpy than hot and vacant like before.ReplyCancel
Um..her pants are hot.ReplyCancel
@Black Cat – Is your ISP Bell or Rogers affiliated? I'm able to watch here in MississaugaReplyCancel
Aww, I still love her. It's so good to see her happy and just..normal looking. Yeah, her hair could be a little more polished, but if she doesn't care, I don't either! I think her hair is gorgeous, but I do think she can pull off-and looks amazing with-short hair. Remember her bob from the early TC days? Still love it to this day…that and Mandy Moore's short cut were both awesome.ReplyCancel
@Kerry Applin, I'm with Bell, never have been able to view the NBC videos, was with Rogers also, same thing.ReplyCancel
@Jules! I was going to say that!! I LOVE Joey Potter!! I pretend the Counting Crows song, Mrs. Potter's Lullaby is about Joey Potter when she's all grown up. Total girl crush on her!ReplyCancel

Gospel Reading
Document Actions
Thursday of the 5th Week
The Gospel according to Luke 9:49-56
At that time, one of Jesus' disciples came to him and said, "Master, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us." But Jesus said to him, "Do not forbid him; for he that is not against you is for you." When the days drew near for him to be received up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him; but the people would not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, "Lord, do you want us to bid fire come down from heaven and consume them?" But he turned and rebuked them. And they went on to another village.

This is the Emery County School District report on the progress our schools are making toward achieving proficiency for 100 percent of our students. As defined under federal legislation called No Child Left Behind, the report identifies whether schools have made Adequate Yearly Progress based on a complex set of measurements.
To make AYP, a school must achieve 45 targets: two areas of test participation and performance measured across four subgroups of students as well as the school as a whole. In addition schools must meet graduation rates or attendance targets. Miss just one of the 45 targets and your entire school does not meet AYP.
As you can see from the report, some good schools have not made AYP. That does not mean they are not successful. AYP is an all or nothing proposition, but student achievement is not. Academic success is measured in many ways, including classroom tests, teacher observations, report cards, homework and standardized tests. AYP focuses only on state tests. Entire schools can miss the AYP target if too many students are absent on test day, or if students that are still learning English miss the reading and writing goals.
We are firmly committed to achieving our goal of success for every child and we recognize that we must continually improve. Our schools are filled with outstanding teachers, principals and support staff. They regularly update their skills and participate in training to help them meet the special challenges our students face. Children of all ages are learning and making daily progress in our schools, as one visit to any classroom in this district will illustrate, no child is being left behind.
We urge you to look closely at the progress our schools are making and join us in addressing our challenges and applauding the great work students and staff are doing in classrooms throughout the district.
Under the accountability provisions, schools, districts and the state are required to meet AYP criteria on three indicators: 1) participation in testing, 2) language arts and mathematics Core CRT scores, and 3) either graduation rate (for high schools and districts) or attendance rate (for elementary and middle/junior high schools). This current report AYP is based on student scores for tests taken in the spring of 2004.
In the Emery County School District, the following schools made AYP as determined by student performance in all subgroups in the criterion: Emery High School, Green River High School, San Rafael Junior High School, Book Cliff Elementary School, Castle Dale Elementary School, Cleveland Elementary School and Huntington Elementary School.
The following schools in Emery County School District did not make AYP because student's scores in at least one of the student subgroups in language arts or mathematics did not reach the established criterion: Canyon View Junior High School and Ferron Elementary. Each of these schools made 44 of the 45 targets.
