I mean even someone like Luffy, with all his feats of invading and pretty much destory all 3 of the world goverments main islands, damn rooks like Caribou reckon they could take him on. While Luffy has a name, it isn't much to scare off the stronger pirates of the day. Even Law had to go out of his way to make himself stand out (appearing at the war and saving Luffy, 100 hearts etc). Buggy is a simpiler one as he has history (even if his unworthy), was at the war, and has been shown to be a comander of a group of convicts of some significant strength. Much like the Yonkou, his crew is filled with bounty headed pirates, who's numbers alone would scare off opponents. Who knows, maybe even Caribou was after joining his crew.

By PAUL L. YOUNGSt. George
Dear Editor,
Being a veteran of World War II, serving under General George S. Patton, a man I will always hold in the highest regard. I was asked to sing our National Anthem at the High School Final Rodeo season ending June 12 in Heber. Shortly thereafter I was asked by Principal Mitchell Myers of Delta South Elementary School in Delta, if I would sing our National Anthem at his school on Nov. 11, Veterans Day Program. He requested I sing it exactly as I had in Heber. Principal Myers said he wanted his students to show their honor and respect to those veterans of the service attending the program, but he also wanted to teach his students love, honor and respect of Old Glory.
He wanted them to understand why they stand up, place their hand over their hearts when Old Glory passes by them in a parade or come into the auditorium for a program. Or why it is sung before the beginning of a sporting event, and why they should show their respect on each occasion.
I consented. Then in the following weeks, I had a hundred negative feelings on just how a patriotic, rousing program a bunch of kids in an elementary school could put on.
What a surprise. A young girl, probably fifth or sixth grade, played Taps, and did it to perfection. Then another young girl, probably second grade sang America with the clearest, unwavering voice for a young person to have. Those that spoke did just that. They spoke up, clearly, they shut up, they sat down.
I could go on, but in conclusion I will go to Delta next year and listen to the Delta South Elementary School put on their Veterans Day Program. It will be worth my time and your too.

Laurel Engbring, physical anthropologist
Archaeology can be a bit of a gamble: you can dig for weeks and find nothing.
I began this season at Amara West excavating two shafts. They had little preserved inside them; though we did find the disarticulated remains of a neonate (a newborn child).
The tumulus I am currently excavating (G314) started out as a simple raised mound in Cemetery D, and initially proved somewhat frustrating. Beneath the sandy surface of the shaft lurked a series of schist slabs and large stones, covering a smaller east to west oriented shaft, lined in places with mudbrick. After photographing, leveling, planning and sectioning the stones, I excitedly removed the layer of huge stones, anticipating what lay beneath.
This turned out to be another layer of stones. After documenting this layer, and removing it, a third layer was revealed. In some ways this was frustrating. In other ways, the effort enhanced the anticipation.
When a fourth layer of schist slabs was removed, we finally discovered chambers extending to the east and west, nearly two metres in each direction.
My initial peek into the western chamber revealed disarticulated human bones and a few large ceramic vessels: an osteoarchaeologist's dream!
The excavation and recording of the bones has just begun, making the 5.30am starts much easier.

By PATSY STODDARDEmery County Progress Editor
A downpour of rain that unleashed a mudslide full of debris with nothing to stop it has left Huntington Canyon closed for the next few days after roads were left impassable, according to information provided by the Utah Department of Transportation.
Areas of the Seeley burn scar in Huntington Canyon received a large amount of precipitation on Sept. 2 which resulted in SR 31 being closed at approximately 5 p.m. due to large debris flows. The debris flows came out of North Hughes Canyon at mile post 23.5, South Hughes Canyon at mile post 24.5, Engineer Canyon at mile post 25.5, Mill Canyon at mile post 26 and Day Canyon at mile post 26.5.
The largest debris flows came out of South Hughes Canyon and Mill Canyon. The large volume of water going down Huntington Creek damaged the shoulder of the road in several places and the gabion baskets near Stuart Guard Station at mile post 28 have fallen into the creek. At Mill Canyon, the debris flow has filled the creek channel and the water is now running along the side of the road.
It is estimated that SR 31 through Huntington Canyon will be closed from Crandall Canyon mile post 33 to Miller's Flat junction mile post 18 until Sept. 10. UDOT is working on reopening the highway.
This is the third time since the Seeley Fire that SR 31 has been closed for a significant amount of time. The closure of SR 31 has a great impact on the workers that travel the canyon daily for work at the power plant, coal mines and construction sites. The debris flows into Huntington Creek compromise the quality of the water entering the power plant and irrigation systems. It is anticipated that this will be an ongoing occurrence for the next few years during rain events, spring runoff and possible avalanches in the winter.

The weather's warming, and Memorial Day Weekend is almost upon us, but the surest sign of summer's approach are my first bug bites of the season. On Sunday, a thirsty gnat from the deep woods got stuck inside my hood and left red welts on my neck that look like hickeys, but aren't nearly as much fun.
As we get closer to summer, my CSA bag grows fuller every week. Friday's delivery included mesclun mix, beet greens, chard, spinach, and spring onions, as well as this gorgeous vegetable:
Meet tatsoi. Tatsoi-san's dark green, spoon-shaped leaves are as tender as baby spinach and taste a little like raw pumpkin. I didn't find detailed nutritional information online, but it's safe to assume a dark green leafy vegetable is good for you.
I'd never seen tatsoi before, so rather than sauté or wilt it, I tossed it raw into a salad to get the full effect. Less assertive that spinach, the leaves provided a mild, earthy grounding for crunchy spring onions, almonds, and celery, and for sweet carrots and Veganomicon sesame dressing.
Baked and broiled tofu made the salad a meal. In the fridge, I had some tofu triangles that had been marinated overnight in tamari and baked at 350F for 40 minutes. To breathe life back into the leftovers, I broiled them very close to the heat for 3-4 minutes, creating a scorched, salty exterior, perfect atop the mellow greens.
I love becoming acquainted with unfamiliar plants that arrive in my CSA bag. If I had seen tatsoi at the grocery store, tucked into the foreign-foods-we-don't-know-how-to-cook bin, I probably would have overlooked it. Instead, it inspired a fresh, delicious salad, and I'm hoping for more tatsoi in this week's delivery!

I learned about this education video via @SeattleMamaDoc.
Sun safe practices:
- Staying in the shade, especially between the sun's peak hours (10 a.m. - 4 p.m.).
- Covering up with clothing, a brimmed hat and UV-blocking sunglasses.
- Avoiding tanning and UV tanning booths.
- Use sunscreen, SPF 15 or above, preferably one with a sunblock component also. To protect against the UVA rays, the product needs to have avobenzone (Parsol 1789), ecamsule (Mexoryl), titanium dioxide, or micro-zinc oxide.
Sunscreens should not be used in babies under 6 months old. It is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics for this group to use other sun safe practices such as the ones just mentioned.

PARCHEESI : GAME :: jazz : music
The best answer is music. The relationship between the first pair of words, PARCHEESI and GAME, is that of item to category—one word names something that falls into the category, or group, named by the other word. Therefore, the second pair of words must also have an item-to-category relationship. Jazz is a type of music.

Why We Chose This Week's Program
I edit and produce a national public radio show called On Being with Krista Tippett. It's played on about 250 public radio stations at different times throughout the week. Part of my gig is deciding our programming line-up. Why do I tell you this?
About a week ago, we had a gap in our schedule and I suggested rebroadcasting our interview with Kate Braestrup, a UU chaplain who works with Maine's game wardens on search-and-rescue missions and such events. She also lost a husband early in her life. For some, it seemed counter-intuitive to put a show on about death, loss, and grief during this festive time of year. But we know that the holidays can be a lonely time of despair, depression, and loss for many; I hoped our program could meet those people suffering in some minor way — and remind all of us of the gift of grace and happiness during this season.
I never could've envisioned (nor wanted to) this horrifying scenario before us. And so I worried about the programming decision.
Well, my beloved wife Shelley and I just finished listening to the production on MPR News (yes, believe it or not, on the radio). Kate Braestrup's stories and insights on love, death, and loss are profound — and more relevant than I could have ever imagined. It's wise people like her who are most needed during our country's darkest hours and brightest holidays. Bella and I cried a little; we danced.
This show doesn't make sense of the tragedy in Connecticut; nothing can. But, Kate Braestrup offers a framing for how to think about love and tragedy, how we live forward. If you're looking for something to listen to with your loved ones, listen to this show. And, if you do, please write me and share your thoughts. It would mean a lot to me: firstname.lastname@example.com or @trentgilliss.

Great This shoe is great. It's very sexy and comfy. I wore it for my birthday party and everyone loves. Although its super high but comfy . Love love love. It's runs big so I will advice if u want to order , go one size down November 22, 2012
super cute very comfortable, but i do recommended buying a size smaller this shoe runs a little big. October 25, 2012
love! I absolutely love these shoes. I get so many compliminets... And they're so comfortable. I love them so much I ordered my second pair in the black... October 16, 2012
Love These Shoes These shoes are gorgeous and comfortable. I can dance in these ALL NIGHT! October 12, 2012
Gold Studs are alluring I wear a 6.5 shoe size and ordered a size 7 which turned out to be too big and loose around the ankles-due to the high arch heels which caused my feet to slide in/out of shoe. I had to return the size 7 and re order size 6 which I hope will fit me as I'm waiting for them in the mail. Bebe only offers whole sizes so be aware of the fitting of this shoe. It needs to fit snugly and comfortably due to the high arch as you do not want to fall and break your ankles being off balance while walking. But as far as appearances go, this shoe is a showstopper, the gold studs are eyecatching and add lots of B -Bling B-Bling to any outfit !! October 8, 2012
"Dressy, sexy shoe" "I tried these on at the store in a 7 in the natural. They're similar to the Caitlyn wedge (which I really wanted but the 7's are out of stock in the whole country). They're really pretty, sexy and super high (I think over 6" August 20, 2012

Ryan O'Byrne on his time in Toronto, decision to go to the KHL, and more
Steve Dangle
September 25 2013 09:50AM
Ryan O'Byrne wasn't on the Leafs for very long. He was meant to be a late season addition to beef up the Leafs' blueline. Even though his role was minimal, in a way, he got a more complete Toronto Maple Leafs experience than most players have been through in the past decade. He played in the blue and white during the playoffs, after all.
A few months later and minus an NHL job, O'Byrne is now playing for Lev Prague of the KHL. Even though he's thousands of kilometers away, we managed to get an interview with the now former Leaf.
Tomas Kmec, a young hockey reporter from Slovakia, was recently at a few Lev Prague KHL games in the Czech Republic. Tomas approached me last week, offering to interview some KHL players for us. We've already posted his interview with Leo Komarov here at TLN. All he asked for was that we give him credit. Please give Tomas a follow. He's the reason we have these interviews.
Here's Tomas' interview with "Ryan O'Beauty" on his time with the Leafs, Toronto during the playoffs, heading to the KHL, Randy Carlyle, and more.
What made you choose the KHL this season?
It was just a situation, where with the salary cap going down cause of the new CBA it seemed that a lot of middle-class players like myself kinda got squeezed out. And you know, I've waited all summer to get a contract from a NHL team and it didn' t come about. An offer came from here, from Prague, and it was a good offer. I was happy to come over and play here. Work on my skills on the big ice and so far I've really enjoyed it.
What, if anything have you brought with you?
Woah, it' s a good question actually. I brought a few pictures. My girlfriend's here with me. We've been trying to kinda get some magazines for our apartment. Yeah, I think I need a few more things (laugh).
Do you like it in Prague?
We really like it here. Prague is a great city. When I played in the NHL I got to know Roman Hamrlik pretty well and he's spent a lot of time in Prague and always told me how good of a city it was. So when the opportunity came I was really excited. Everyone's been really nice (to us). The organization's been great, the coaches, the team... I have a great group of teammates.
There are a lot of English-speaking guys.
Which is nice and that kinda helped my transition. It's really been easy for me so far and I've enjoyed it very much so far.
What about the on-ice adjustments? There a bigger rink, a different style of play...
Yeah, it's different hockey. But you know what? For the most part it' s not that much of a difference. Obviously there's the bigger ice and more skating and more skill. The North American game is a more grinding type game, more physical type game. Just dump the puck and chase the puck, make quicker decisions. Like here you kind of have more time with the puck and you just gotta skate a whole bunch more. But I' ve enjoyed it though.
Were other teams in the KHL interested too or was this pretty much a clear cut decision to come over here for Prague.
The latter. They were the team that came with an offer and I was happy about that.
Who is your roommate on road trips?
My roommate is Spencer Humphries, so I got to know him pretty well. My defensive partner is Nathan Oystrick. He's a really good friend of mine as well. We grew up playing against each other in junior and in college, and in pro hockey we kind of played against each other for years and years. I got to know him really well too. It's been nice to have some Canadian guys on the team, that kinda helped me along but that being said, the team as a whole is a great group of guys.
Do you see this as a short stint, a temporary solution? Is playing in the NHL still your ultimate goal?
We'll see what happens. I think at this point I'm really enjoying the KHL and I'm gonna play hard and try to get better and better. You know, I've lost about 20 pounds from last year when I played with Toronto. I'm starting to get better at skating, get quicker and faster. Hopefully over the summer I can work on it over here. With the big ice, it really makes you skate. We'll see what happens when my contract' s up. If I just keep playing the way I' m playing and the salary cap goes back up, I think some team will offer me a contract in the NHL. But that being said, I' m happy to be in the KHL right now.
You have played at different levels, and for many coaches. Who has had the biggest impact on you?
In the NHL, the coach that had the biggest impact on my development was the coach in Colorado, Joe Sacco. You know, I was in Montreal, just starting my career and I was struggling a little bit and couldn't quite become a regular NHL player. And then I went to Colorado and he gave me the confidence to be that. Him and Sylvian Lefebvre were probably the most influential NHL coaches.
What was it like to play in Toronto last year?
Toronto was great. I really really enjoyed it. You know, to go from a situation in Colorado where we were kinda struggling and not in the playoffs to go to Toronto, which is the biggest hockey market in the world, and the team was on the upswing. It was our first year in the playoffs after nine years. It was so much fun playing in that playoff series. Obviously it didn ` t end the way we wanted, but that being said, I really enjoyed my time in Toronto. Fans in Toronto are pretty cool.
What was it like to play for Randy Carlyle?
It was good. I really respect coach Carlyle. He gets a lot out of his players. You know, he' s a demanding coach but he' s a good coach and I' ve learned a lot from him. He's a great coach for that team. He's a big reason why they're back in the playoffs and why they're on the upswing.
Thanks for reading! We will be posting the Tim Brent interview tomorrow.
Why would anyone read the Tor Star and their "reporters" when you have intelligent people on this site actually reporting Leafs news. I had the displeasure the other day of reading the paper Star and I was thinking why do those guys get paid for the drivel they write.

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) was enacted in 1966. In 1996 the Act was amended by the passing of the Electronic Freedom of Information (E-FOIA) Act Amendments. In December 2005, the FOIA was amended again by Executive Order (E.O.) 13,392, "Improving Agency Disclosure of Information." However, the spirit and the intent have remained the same. The intent of the FOIA is based on openness to citizens and the informed consent of the governed. The BLM is continuing to strive to meet goals established by the Department Of Interior E.O. 13,392 Action Plan to improve its FOIA program.
What Information Is Available Under FOIA?
The FOIA gives you the right to request access to any agency record. This does not mean, however, that an agency will disclose every record requested. There are statutory exemptions that authorize the withholding of information of an appropriately sensitive nature. When BLM withholds information, it must specify which exemption of the FOIA permits the withholding. The FOIA does not require agencies to do research for you, to analyze data, to answer questions, or to create records in order to respond to a request.
When exempted material is found in requested records, we will inform you of our decision in writing. Our response will tell you how much material we found and the charges due. If the records are being released only in part, we will estimate the amount of the withheld information. If we deny any part of your request, we will explain the reasons for the denial, which FOIA exemptions apply, and your right to appeal our decisions.
We will only withhold information when we have a sound legal basis to do so. If only part of a record must be withheld, the BLM will provide access to the rest of the record.
Who May File A FOIA Request? Members of the public, including foreign citizens, military and civilian personnel acting as private citizens, organizations and businesses, and individual members of the Congress for themselves or constituents, may request records in writing. It is important to remember that the FOIA applies only to federal agencies. Government employees submitting requests should not use government equipment, supplies, stationery, postage, telephones, or official mail channels to make FOIA requests, as this practice is considered unethical.
What About Costs For Records Under The FOIA?
Chart Showing Applicable Fees by Category for FOIA Requests
1 First 100 pages of paper copies or reasonable equivalent, suchas a microfiche containing the equivalent of 100 pages, are copied free.2 First 2 hours of manual search time are free.
2 Depending on the requesters fee category, requesters entitled to the first 100 pages of copies free, will not be charged for the equivalent of 100 pages at $ .15/page or $15.00.
Department of the Interior FOIA Search and Review Fees
How I Qualify for a Fee Waiver?
When statutory fee waivers are approved copies of documents are sent to you without charge or at a reduced charge. Fee waivers are provided when disclosure is in the public interest because it: (a) Is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations or activities of the government (Does the record concern the operations or activities of the government? Is disclosure likely to contribute to the public understanding of these operations and activities? Will that contribution be significant?); and (b) is not primarily in the commercial interest of the requester.
When Can I Appeal A BLM Response To My FOIA Request?
You may file an appeal with the Department of the Interior FOIA Appeals Officer if: (a) A requested record is withheld; (b) a FOIA response delayed (responses are due within 20-working days or 30-working days when an extension is justified); (c) a fee waiver denied; or (d) a request has been denied for failure to describe requested records or for other procedural deficiency, or because requested records cannot be located.
Appeal language and the address to file your appeal will be provided in the response you receive from the Bureau.
What is meant by Multi-track Processing?
Effective January 8, 2007, all bureaus/offices in the Department of the Interior (DOI) are required to use multitrack processing. This means that bureaus/offices will be using tracks to process your FOIA requests. The availability of multitrack processing does include a tract for Expedited process. Bureaus/offices will ensure that requests are processed fairly by treating similarly situated requests in a like manner.
FOIA requests are placed in one of four tracks based on the amount of time needed to process the request. These tracks are listed below:
The FOIA coordinator will notify you as soon as possible if we have placed your request in the "Complex" track. If you limit the scope of your request, it may result in faster processing (43 CFR 2.26(b)). We will contact you by telephone or in writing, whichever is more efficient in each case. In the event the requester is contacted by telephone, the bureau/office will confirm in writing.
How do I know when I can expect a response to my request?
The action office will respond to an initial FOIA request no later than 20 workdays after the appropriate bureau FOIA Contact receives the request and it is perfected (i.e., all issues regarding fees and the scope of the request are resolved), unless the request is in the complex track.
The 20-workday time limit begins to run the workday after a request complying with DOI procedures is received by the FOIA Contact at the bureau office that has the requested records. If a request is received that is unperfected, the action office or the FOIA Contact will contact the requester as soon as possible to resolve the issues and perfect the request.
What does the term "Perfected FOIA Request" mean?
This term describes a FOIA request for records which adequately describes the records sought, which has been received by the FOIA office of the agency or agency component in possession of the records, and for which there is no remaining question about the payment of applicable fees. FOIA coordinators may contact requesters multipile times to discuss fees in accordance with the Open Government Act.
What is Expedited Processing?
Expedited Processing means giving a FOIA request priority, and processing it ahead of other non-expedited requests pending in the bureau because a requester has demonstrated that there is a "compelling need or urgency to obtaining the records." If a requester asks for Expedited Processing, BLM FOIA specialists are required to contact the requester within 10 calendar days of receipt of the request to approve or deny the desire for expedited processing. FOIA requests may be taken out of order and processed on an expedited basis only if a BLM FOIA Specialist determines that the request involves (1) circumstances in which the lack of expedited treatment could reasonably be expected to pose an imminent threat to someone's life or physical safety, or (2) an urgency to inform the public about an actual or alleged federal government activity and the request is made by a person primarily engaged in disseminating information.
Every request for expedited processing must be accompanied by a statement from the requester setting forth in detail the reasons why expedited processing is warranted. The requester must also certify that the reasons given in support of expedited processing are true and correct to the best of the requester's knowledge and belief. If a request for expedited treatment is granted, the FOIA request will be given priority and processed as soon as practicable. If the request for expedited processing is denied, the requester may appeal the decision.

Robert Harrison takes oversight of store, online and mobile.
With the coming retirement of Tom Cole, the chief administrative officer who led development of Macy's Inc.'s "omnichannel" retailing strategy, the retail chain has created the new position of chief omnichannel officer to oversee the integration of store, online and mobile operations.
Filling the new position is Robert B. Harrison, who since last July has been executive vice president for omnichannel strategy, during which he developed and managed strategies for integrating the retailer's store, web and mobile retail channels. As chief omnichannel officer, Harrison will take on the additional responsibility for overseeing the systems and technology, logistics and related operations the retail chain uses to manage its strategy across the company's retail channels, Macy's says. He will also join the company's executive committee and report to CEO Terry Lundgren.
Macy's describes omnichannel retailing as providing consumers a consistent shopping experience across multiple retail channels, including the ability to view updates of all available inventory whether shopping online or in stores. In the past year, for example, Macy's has been equipping hundreds of its more than 840 stores to fulfill orders customers place online, providing online shoppers with products that might not otherwise be available via the web.
As chief omnichannel officer, Harrison oversees how the multiple retail channels work together, but he is not responsible for each channel separately. The online channel is headed by Jeffrey A. Kantor, chairman of Macys.com; the stores are led by chief stores officer Peter Sachse.
Industry analysts applauded the retailer's creation of the new chief omnichannel executive position. By making a single senior executive responsible for coordinating online and offline activities, Macy's has taken an important step to addressing how modern consumers like to shop across retail channels, says Paula Rosenblum, managing partner of research and advisory firm Retail Systems Research. "It's a strong statement," she says. "Macy's is committed to treating inventory as a shared asset and meeting the customer with products wherever she likes."
Leslie Hand, research director at IDC Retail Insights, says the appointment of Harrison "reaffirms the company's commitment to not just serving customers well in each channel, but becoming an organization that serves customers well wherever and however they engage. Macy's omnichannel charter takes yet another step ahead of the competition."
Nikki Baird, also a managing partner at Retail Systems Research, adds that other retailers likely will follow Macy's move, and that by giving Harrison responsibility for both the business and technology operations behind omnichannel retailing, Macy's is better positioned to "delivering omnichannel service efficiently and effectively."
Rosemblum adds that a natural next step for Macy's would be to create a position for a customer experience officer, to ensure that the retailer is satisfying customers no matter how they shop.
In earlier positions, Harrison was executive vice president for finance, president of stores, and president and chief operating officer of Macy's West. Prior to joining Macy's in 2006, Harrison was chairman of retail chain Robinsons-May.
Macy's has also re-assigned three other senior executives to take over areas managed by Cole, who will remain with the company through May to help in the transition. Each will also serve on the executive committee and report to Lundgren.
Sachse, who was named chief stores officer last February, will assume additional responsibility for store planning, design and construction. He had previously been chairman and CEO of Macys.com, president of Macy's corporate marketing, and president and chief operating officer of The Bon Marché retail chain, which eventually became part of Macy's.
Karen M. Hoguet, chief financial officer of Macy's since 1997, is taking on additional responsibilities for credit and customer service, real estate, and the purchasing of non-merchandise items.
William S. Allen has been named chief human resources officer, overseeing corporate communications and external affairs as well as human resources. He joins Macy's from AP Moller-Maersk A/S, a Denmark-based company involved in the transportation and energy industries, where he was senior vice president for global human resources.
Macy's is No. 14 in the Internet Retailer Top 500.

On Saturday, January 17, 2009, the City of Inglewood will host its annual Dr. Martin Luther King Day Celebration. This year's memorial of Dr. King's legacy will be extremely significant as it is Inglewood's 26th annual commemoration of the life and accomplishments of Dr. King. Additionally, the 2009 King Day Celebration will be held as Inglewood culminates its 100th birthday celebration. Inglewood was one of the first cities in the nation to designate Dr. King's Birthday a legal holiday.
The City will kick-off its King Day celebration with a rousing ecumenical service at 9:00 a.m. in The Tabernacle of Faithful Central Bible Church located at 321 N. Eucalyptus Avenue. Immediately following the special service, over a thousand marchers will take to the streets to reenact, in a tribute to Dr. King, the symbolic marches of the 1960's. The City of Inglewood will continue its celebration with a commemorative family festival on the grounds of Hollywood Park
An exciting line-up of renowned leaders, celebrities and talented groups has teamed up to make this a memorable event. The program will feature an inspiring keynote address by Dr. Kenneth Crowe, pastor of Avalon Church of Christ, and handclapping and toe-tapping entertainment. KTLA Channel 5 newscaster Michaela Pereira will serve as Mistress of Ceremonies for the program. 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist Allyson Felix, Actress/Comedienne Kim Coles (10 Items or Less) and actor Glynn Turman (The Wire) will serve as event grand marshals.
Also featured will be this year's dynamic winners of the King Day speech contest. The winners will represent four grade categories including the early elementary (K-2); elementary (3-5); middle school (6-8); and high school (9-12) grade levels. The winners in each category will speak on the topic "We have an Opportunity to make America a Better Nation."
Immediately following the ecumenical service, the City will begin its symbolic march. Highlighting the march will be performances by drill teams, bands and pep squads representing all of Inglewood's schools and several churches throughout the City.
Marchers will leave The Tabernacle at 11:00 a.m. and will travel south on Eucalyptus Avenue; head east on Regent Street; and south on Prairie Avenue to Hollywood Park where the celebration will continue at the King Day Family Festival. The festival will run from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and include live entertainment, food, arts, crafts, commercial vendors, and interactive games. The City's King Day Celebration promises an enriching and reflective experience for the entire family.
Free shuttle service will be available for March participants. Individuals participating in the March may park their cars at Hollywood Park Racetrack (Gate 8 – Pincay Drive (90th Street) entrance) prior to the ecumenical service. The shuttle will transport marchers from Hollywood Park to The Tabernacle beginning at 7:45 a.m. until 10:30 a.m.
Groups who want to participate in the March should register by calling the City's Cultural Office at (310) 412-8700. For more information about the King Day Celebration or to obtain a March registration form, contact the Cultural Office or visit the City's website at www.cityofinglewood.org (Search keyword: MLK).

Transportation for seniors and those with disabilities in Douglas County may be getting a much-needed boost in the near future.
With unanimous support from the county commissioners, the county is applying for a grant that would increase transportation funding in non-RTD areas by $622,464 for a two-year period covering 2014 and 2015. The county would provide a 26 percent match of $162,120, while the federal grant share would be $460,344.
"Transit in Douglas County is a challenge and a lot of it has to do with the fact that we are on the edge of the Denver metro area and our communities are so spread out," said District 3 Commissioner Jill Repella. "We are working on it. We are continuing to work on it and this is part of that challenge."
Perhaps the biggest challenge the county faces is that it has one of the fastest growing senior populations in the country, and between 2009 and 2011 it saw its transportation funding cut dramatically due to the recession.
In 2009, according to county documents, approximately 150,000 one-way trips were provided in non-RTD service areas to seniors and those with disabilities. That number dropped to 23,000 in 2011 due to a loss of funding. With some help from a Federal Transit Administration grant, it increased to 40,000 in 2012.
"Part of the challenge is we are playing catch-up, trying to get ourselves back to the level of transit services that we were providing previously," said Jennifer Eby, the county's community and resource services manager. "We are working with all the different partners and certainly everybody has been really stepping up and collaborating well to increase the number of rides this year."
The county is the lead partner of the 21-organization Local Coordinating Council which includes transit providers, community-based organizations and each of the county's municipal jurisdictions. The LCC consists of a volunteer driver program, the Castle Rock and Parker senior centers, as well as some for-profit entities.
The LCC works efficiently, says Matthew Helfant, the county's transit mobility program manager, because the entities work together to fill in one another's gaps in terms of geographic reach and operating hours.
Despite their coordinated efforts, a telephone survey sampling indicated that approximately 6,500 seniors and individuals with disabilities missed work in 2011 due to a lack of available transportation and roughly 20,000 county residents in those specific populations missed medical appointments for the same reasoning.
"This funding will enable us to provide more services," Helfant said. "We simply don't have the services available that meet our growing needs."
According to Helfant, if the county gets approved for the grant, funding could be available as early as this October, but most likely would kick in January 2014.
For more information on the LCC as well as transit options available to qualifying individuals, visit www.dctransitsolutions.com or call 303-660-7519.

Jacalyn See is a clinical dietitian at Mayo Clinic. She shares tips on how to eat healthy during the holidays.
Food is an essential part of any celebration, and the holidays bring with them a smorgasbord of options. We often think of holiday food as rich and fattening and perhaps not very good for us. But you can find ways to eat healthy by adding more "cancer-blocking" foods into festivities. The below foods are good sources of antioxidants, phytonutrients, omega 3 fatty acids, fiber and/or other nutrients known to help prevent cancer:
You can incorporate these and other healthy foods in a variety of ways, such as:
And don't think you have to avoid sweets. Contrary to popular belief, sugar doesn't feed cancer. But it can contribute to unwanted and unnecessary calories, so you may want to practice moderation.
I hope these suggestions got your imaginations running. Make sure to check out our healthy holiday recipes. And if you have other hints for healthy holiday eating or meal planning, or a favorite recipe or two, please share. Just don't forget to add the bake time and temperature.
Happy holidays!

How do you know sugar doesn't feed cancer?
In February, 2015 I completed my treatments for colon cancer. During the radiation and chemo which were done together in a span of 6 weeks, I had very little appetite.
Now I'm in recovery and still have not found my appetite to be any better. Before cancer I ate fruits, uncooked and uncooked fresh vegetables, raisin, cranberries, oakmeal, eggs, a little bit of chicken and fish, some pork.
The only food that I been able to stand consistently is eggs. Now eggs are loosing their appeal,
I haven't started raw vegetables yet, because i'm afraid they would be too harsh on my stomach and I don't really have a taste for them.
I'm allergic (or intolerant) to cheese, chocolate and nuts. So the protein bars, manufactured dinners are based in nuts and cheese and I can't eat those.
I seem to do fine with breakfast foods, and lunch I can just eat a turkey or ham sandwich, and I have snacks throughout the day, but I don't know what to eat for dinner. I'v found that most dinner foods have no appeal.
I have taken fairly good care of myself during all this, I'm up and moving around. Since I live alone I get exercise making my bed, cooking my meals, doing dishes, laundry and light housekeeping and now that we are getting some warm days I'm walking again. I have a yoga practice that I tried to keep up with during the treatments, but now since I've been in recovery I practice yoga hree or four times a week, I've started back to work on a part-time basis which is exhausting, but i'm trying to keep up with work and get back into a normal life. Which right now there is nothing normal about my life. I know all of this will pass and I'll be back to my normal routine, when that will be seems hard to even fathom, but spring is just around the corner.
I'll add some of your suggestions back into my food experience, like cranberries, humus, salmon dip.
I apologize for continuing on, so any recipes you can put up on your website would be appreciated.
thank you,
Thank you for this article "Put healthy foods in your holiday eating plans". I am using the list as my shopping list, so I can plan my meals and entertainment around what is best for all my family and friends. As a breast cancer survivor almost 4 years, I appreciate any information on preventing cancer.
Good information to help remind us that there are lots of options for good tasting nutritious and healthy food.
Please clarify your statement that "sugar doesn't feed cancer." So many fonts very knowledgeable fonts says it does. I have been avoiding sugar in any form for months now. Can you indicate some research that support one and the other? Thanks!
Why would there be a suggestion to eat SMOKED salmon on a "block cancer" type of menu???????
Unparalleled accuracy, unueqivoacl clarity, and undeniable importance!
I feel hesitant to ask senqtious at my routine checkups. I have had signifiant health concerns and still feel apprehensive to ask about continual symptoms that I have, because I feel they are often dismissed and not taken seriously. I still feel better when my physician makes that effort to connect and take me seriously as I am not a complainer but have legitimate concerns. In talking with many friends and colleagues, I find this to be a continual experience for many people. What guidance is out there to address the issue in communicating with doctors and specialists in the most direct and comprehensive way to not only get needs met but to help the patient be more assertive in both consultation and routine checkups. This would eliminate a lot of anxiety for people and therefore impact overall health and wellness.
Its a nice and new kind of information for me. Everyone should be aware with this post. Thanks for sharing.

I recently stumbled upon this blog like I did yours and I thought your readers may appreciate the advice of this couple: http://burisonthecouch.wordpress.com/2010/11/04/food-for-thought/
I've started to look for their stuff more regularly and I think I'm going to add your blog to my list as well. Thanks for the post!
All of these foods look like great healthy foods, but I have a feeling that by next year you will be able to put a few more on the list thanks to the Philips Airfryer
I have been emailed at different times that Asparagus Therapy is stopping cancer and other terminal illnesses. Specifically stated is taking 4TBLSP of Pureed (blended to a liquid drink) canned asparagus (cooked), not fresh, morning and later in the day works for kidney, liver, cancers & other illinesses???
It realy gets so difficult, to know exactly, what to eat. There are so many contradictions out there, what are we to believe ? A great deal of the time, all we seem to recieve to our mail box, are people trying to get you to buy their book, to make them money. It is very refreshing to get mail from the Mayo Clinic, who are not on the make, and do give sound advice. Thank You Abigail
i really like getting chicken breasts and putting a little marinade (you can get them at your local grocery store, and there are tons to chose from) and just grill it in a george foreman grill or bake it. its reallly simple and high in protein. try it with some broccolli or rice.
Thanks !
Good advices
Great article. This is especially relevant for the kids. It is important that they relate these fun times to healthy foods too, not just junk.
Dear Kim, the blood type diet tells you which foods to eat or avoid based on your blood type. However, no scientific evidence supports the idea that what you eat should be based on your blood type.
Some books say that smoked salmon are not to be consumed by people with blood type groups "A", "B" and "O". What are your views?

The Bulls have almost two weeks to decide whether to pay a steep price for backup center Omer Asik or lose him to the Houston Rockets.
As of Monday, they're not offering any clues about which decision they might make.
"In the end, we'll weigh everything out, and then we'll make a decision," Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said.
Thibodeau and Bulls general manager Gar Forman spoke during an introductory news conference for Marquis Teague, their first-round pick in last week's NBA draft. Both men praised Teague but dodged questions about what other moves could be in store in the coming weeks.
The Houston Rockets offered Asik a three-year deal worth $25.1 million overall, Yahoo Sports first reported. Asik is a restricted free agent, which means that the Bulls will have three days to decide whether to match the offer once it becomes official July 11.
Asik, who turns 26 years old on Wednesday, averaged 3.1 points and 5.3 rebounds a game in 66 games (two starts) last season.

Should Burke Add Top-Six Size At The Deadline?
JP Nikota
January 29 2012 01:33PM
Really, the only thing that Burke has emphatically said that he wants to acquire in the coming weeks is more size for his top-six. It's not a bad idea per se, but the Leafs' defense hasn't exactly been stellar and their goaltending situation is questionable to say the least. In short, I'm somewhat surprised that there hasn't at least been some mention of adding at another position.
For the moment, however, it's safe to say that the defense has been getting better. The Leafs' Road Tied SA/60 sits at 15th in the league and their Road Tied SF/60 sits at 24th. Furthermore, the Leafs' forwards' possession numbers are somewhat underwhelming with only Grabovski, Kadri, MacArthur, and Kessel posting Corsi On numbers in the positives. So maybe offense really is their biggest hole.
One aspect of the Leafs' game that I think may link the issues of size, shot totals, and possession numbers is puck recovery. Phil Kessel and Joffrey Lupul do a few things really, really well, but, without justifying this statistically, I think we can agree that hunting down loose pucks and winning battles along the boards probably aren't among their greatest assets. Would adding a big forward complement them (or other Leafs forwards) well?
Well, for starters, I think we need to determine if the Leafs really are small up front. What I've done is to find the average height and weight of Leafs forwards, as well as those for the rest of the league, and then weight them for ice time. Spoiler: it doesn't make much difference:
So the Leafs' are just the slightest bit smaller than the average NHL forward corps. Now, Burke thinks that his own group is too small, so he's going to add size regardless of where the Leafs fit in to the rest of the league in terms of average size, and I'm fine with that. But I do feel as though the Leafs' forwards have more trouble recovering the puck than their size would suggest, which leads me to wonder if adding more size is going to lead to many more puck battle victories anyway.
I guess that will depend on who Brian Burke is able to pick up.
January 29 2012, 01:38PM
this would be interesting, and more telling, as a team by team comparison. How big are the good teams? How about the bad ones? does size seem to have a possible connection to wins/goals scored/goals allowed that sort of thing
January 29 2012, 02:00PM
Should Burke add "size" to the Top 6?
Yes, but only if "size" means both production AND physicality - not necessarily the same as adding a pillow soft 6'6", 220 lbs guy.
Strong on the boards, strong on the opposition D, strong drive to the net - all the good kind of size which every team would love to have.

I have an old building that is occasionally filled with a sewer odor. The odor appears first in an area of the building that contains no fixtures except a couple of floor drains. I put water in the drains to make sure the traps were filled. The building has been remodelled so many times that anything is possible. Is there a visible "smoke" that can be introduced into the drains to help locate the leak?

Glasgow moved top of the RaboDirect PRO12 table on Friday after emphatically beating Munster 51-24 at Scotstoun Stadium.
Glasgow moved top of the RaboDirect PRO12 standings after demolishing Munster 51-24 at Scotstoun Stadium.
It was an impressive performance from the Warriors, who scored six tries in total to leapfrog Leinster in the race for top spot in emphatic style.
It took Gregor Townsend's side just 26 seconds to get on the scoreboard after Sean Maitland, one of nine changes to the team that lost to Leinster the previous weekend, intercepted a floated pass from Casey Laulala. Jackson added the extras.
Paul O'Connell – two games into his comeback from a back operation – was prominent as Munster responded with vigour and Laulala eventually atoned for his earlier misdemeanor with a try under the posts that was improved by Ronan O'Gara.
Prop Dave Kilcoyne crashed over from close range to give Munster the lead as the visitors continued to dominate though the forwards. O'Gara was again on target with the conversion attempt.
But Glasgow hit back with their second interception try of the evening, livewire scrum-half Nikola Matawalu collecting a stray pass from his opposite number, Duncan Edwards, for a try that Jackson improved to make the score 14-14.
Glasgow finished the half strongly and they were rewarded with two Jackson penalties to take a six-point lead into the interval.
O'Gara scored the first points of the second half when he punished Glasgow for failing to roll away at the tackle, his 47th-minute penalty reducing the arrears to 20-17.
Thereafter it was all Glasgow with four tries in a devastating 23-minute spell delighting the home crowd. Man-of-the-match Jackson finished off a nice interchange between backs and forwards with a try he converted himself and then added a penalty to put Glasgow 30-17 up.
The Scots went further in front through Mark Bennett not long after DTH Van der Merwe had been hauled down inches short of the Munster line. Jackson converted.
Stuart Hogg crossed for a fifth try, before former All Black Doug Howlett temporarily halted Glasgow's momentum with a well-taken score in the right hand corner that Ian Keatley converted.
Glasgow, though, had the final word in the dying stages through John Barclay who capped a fine personal display with the final try of the night. Duncan Weir's conversion saw Glasgow chalk up a half-century of points.
The scorers:
For Glasgow:
Tries: Maitland, Matawalu, Jackson, Bennett, Hogg, Barclay
Con: Jackson 4, Weir 2
Pen: Jackson 3
For Munster:
Tries: Laulala, Kilcoyne, Howlett
Con: O'Gara 2, Keatley
Pen: O'Gara
Glasgow Warriors: 15 Stuart Hogg, 14 Sean Maitland, 13 Sean Lamont, 12 Peter Horne, 11 DTH van der Merwe, 10 Ruaridh Jackson, 9 Niko Matawalu, 8 Ryan Wilson, 7 John Barclay, 6 Josh Strauss, 5 Al Kellock (c), 4 Tim Swinson, 3 Jon Welsh, 2 Pat MacArthur, 1 Ryan Grant.
Replacements:16 Mark Bennett, 17 Duncan Weir, 18 Henry Pyrgos, 19 Rob Harley, 20 Tom Ryder, 21 Moray Low, 22 Dougie Hall, 23 Ofa Fainga'anuku.
Munster: 15 Felix Jones, 14 Doug Howlett (c), 13 Casey Laulala, 12 James Downey, 11 Johne Murphy, 10 Ronan O'Gara, 9 Duncan Williams, 8 James Coughlan. 7 Tommy O'Donnell, 6 Paddy Butler, 5 Paul O'Connell, 4 Donncha O'Callaghan, 3 BJ Botha, 2 Mike Sherry, 1 David Kilcoyne.
Replacements: 16 Damien Varley, 17 Wian du Preez, 18 Stephen Archer, 19 Billy Holland, 20 Niall Ronan, 21 Cathal Sheridan, 22 Ian Keatley, 23 Ivan Dineen.

We've got a pleasure with staying in this appartment within 3 days. We found It very nice and clean. It may be a litlle bit noisy in the nights since it's situated in the centre of Barcelona (Gothic district) close to walking streets and bars, but the location is very good with a plenty of cafes, shops and places to visit next to the house.

The 777 Ranch in Ferron held a Western Family Fun Day and Cowboy Poetry event for a large crowd of people from all around the State on June 11.
This event was hosted by Director Rick Benson his wife Jennie Benson and most of their adult children. Some of the events people could participate in were horseshoes, kids and adult horseback rides, horseback trail rides, Western kids games, a skeet shooting competition, a Dutch oven cook off, hay rides and old time Western photos.
Many folks came because of the Cowboy Poetry and of course the barbecued roast beef and chicken dinner. The Cowboy Poetry and the Country Western ballad entertainment was excellent according to attendees. The entertainers were Jeff Gore from Coleman, Texas who sang many Country Western ballads and recited some poetry. Ron Ehmann from Tooele recited Cowboy Poetry. Each entertainer declared himself to be a preacher and each included some of God's word in their entertainment.
This event was held in a huge enclosed building with an arena in the center. Bleachers lined the West side. Behind the West wall were dormitories an office and a kitchen. The floor was made of loose sand where many of the children played. On the East side of the building was a large area where horses were kept for easy access to the arena.
The food prepared by the Three 777 Ranch to feed the guests of this event was very delicious and more than enough to fill the most hungry of cowhands.
In order to feed this large group of people, two rows of tables were set up loaded with roast beef, chicken, baked potatoes, baked beans, cole slaw, garlic bread and watermelon. A third row of tables for the desserts, were filled with cakes of many varieties along with several pies including Dutch oven pumpkin pie topped off with whipped cream.
Director Rick Benson reported that they have a summer program at the ranch, where a total of nearly 100 young people are enrolled in a variety of programs, at various times, throughout the summer. In addition they have spring and fall programs for adults as well as young people.
Those young people that come for horsemanship camp stay for a week. In the Ranch Hand Program the young ladies and young men stay for eight weeks. Those that come for the eight week program become part of the ranch work force. They work on the ranch feeding livestock, taking care of irrigation and all types of things as well as getting involved in activities like this event. This helps them learn many useful skills.
For the adults there are retreats, such as ladies retreats, mother/daughter retreats, mens retreats, couples retreats. These retreats happen in the fall and in the spring. Benson said they have a horsemanship camp starting next week for adults that want to ride out in some of this beautiful scenery, to the mountains and out on the desert. In addition they get horsemanship instruction before and during these trips. It is a lot of fun. In the arena the riders learn how to do a lot of things on horseback. The following week they will have a horsemanship clinic.
The staff for the ranch at this time consists of three families and a single fellow. This ranch keeps them busy, they do not get bored. They do the camps, the farming, raise purebred cattle and raise horses. They have about 35 head of quarter horses on the ranch.
The evening concluded by the group singing "How Great Thou Art." The program was over and Mr. Benson thanked everyone for coming and wished them to have a safe trip home.

Justin Schultz: Sensational and Sensationalized
Thomas Drance
November 12 2012 11:59AM
Rogers Sportsnet does a lot of things very well, employing Michael Grange or hosting the Marek Versus Wyshynski podcast for example. Their digital content arm however, lags somewhat behind the offerings hockey fans get from the Score, Yahoo and NBC (among others).
Today, they're jumping off of Jason Botchford's take on Canucks fans booing Justin Schultz from this past weekend, and plugging the post as Justin Schultz saying that "picking the Oilers over the Canucks was the best decision of his career." Sounds racy, huh? Except that the actual quote itself is anything but.
Click past the jump for more.
Here's the quote Sportsnet is sensationalizing today:
"It was a little tough but I always figured in the back of my mind Edmonton was the right place for me to be in...
"I saw a great opportunity there and I wasn't worried about what anyone was going to think. I think I made the best decision for my career. The young talent they have here is going to be an exciting couple of years coming up if the NHL starts.
"The end goal is a Stanley Cup, hopefully a couple of them. I think we have the talent here to do it. I'm excited to start playing with them up in the NHL."
Justin Schultz may have made "the best decision of his career" by choosing to draw Paul Coffey comparisons in Edmonton, rather than provide an aging Vancouver club with an injection of youth and talent along the blueline. It's too early to tell, but his reasoning is certainly sound.
My point here is that there's not even a smattering of the, "man I'm glad I didn't decide to go to Vancouver" sentiment in his quotes. Schultz seems to be very happy to be part of the Oilers organization, he's optimistic about the future and he's had tremendous success in the the AHL in the early going. But there's no Canucks directed pettiness there, that's only in the Sportsnet headline (and also emanating from the Canucks fans who booed Schultz in Abbotsford this past weekend).
I know how it is, we've stooped pretty low to come up with content during the lockout as well. But the headline on the Sportsnet Schultz story has next to nothing in common with the quotes Schultz gave Botchford this past weekend in Abbotsford.
Trading off of the hopes of Oilers fans, and their resentment towards the Canucks is all well and good - but let's just be clear that that's really all this is.
As for Justin Schultz, he definitely represents a "whiff" for the Canucks' management team; and it's fair to describe the fact that the AHL's highest scoring defenseman spurned them this summer and isn't wearing Chicago Wolves crimson this fall as unfortunate. But we'd do well to remember that for all of Edmonton's elite young talent - and Taylor Hall, Jordan Eberle, Justin Schultz and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins are all currently playing for the Oklahoma Barons at the moment - their AHL affiliate has fewer points at this early point in the AHL season than the Wolves do.
Should we hold off on anointing the Oilers' young core as future world beaters, at least until they prove that they can dominate and rack up wins at the AHL level? Apparently not.
Nice to see a Canucks blogger stand up for Schultz. I'm not sure what this kid's issue was for not signing with the Ducks, nor do I commend his decision not to. However, since opting to be a FA, Schultz has handled himself with class and dignity.
As for the Canucks fans that booed him, can someone help me to understand this? Why does he deserve to be booed by the fans of a franchise that he never played for nor was drafted by? Is there a rule somewhere that all BC born players are to sign with the Canucks? Ducks fans, I think, have every right. Canucks fans..........not so much.
On a side note, I appreciate your last comment, TD, about the hype surrounding the Oilers. For a team that has finished last or 2nd last there is a lot of hype. Although when you consider that 3 of the last 4 teams to win the cup have completely rebuilt there rosters through the draft the same way Edmonton has maybe SOME of that is warranted. That said there are still an awful lot of holes in that lineup and those young players they've drafted still need to develop properly.
"Why does he deserve to be booed by the fans of a franchise that he never played for nor was drafted by?"
I think it's simply bitterness/jealousy. He turned us down in favour of someone else. Mix in a fan base that has gone a bit batty after 40+ years w/o a Cup. and there you have it.
We are a notoriously sensitive fan base. Passionate too, which I love, but we sure do take things personally a lot of the time.
Def an interesting choice on Schultz behalf.
The interesting thing about him and EDM came after something I read on the HFboards. Back in Feb/March a poster posted that Tambellini had been scouting and talking to Schultz since x-mas of 2011 (when he was still Ducks prospect). The poster had got the approval from HF mederators cause of his history of insider info and apparent legitimacy of source. This poster said the Oilers knew welllllll before March that he was coming to their team.
Low and behold, there he is.... in EDM.
There's no guarantee EDM has long term success in the NHL. The salary cap has leveled the playing field, almost every team is good. EDM has been at the bottom of the league for almost 4 yrs, and yet somehow they're going to be succesful long term? Cause they're deep down the middle? Have great goaltending? Strong back end? They have 1 good offensive centre, 2 great wingers and a great prospect in Nail. Good luck with all that success Schultz.
November 12 2012, 08:58PM
On an unrelated note, OILERZ RULE CANUCKZ DROOLZ!
That is all...
@ Schultzy
"Good luck with all that success Schultz."
I think it's funny that so many people believe that Justin Schultz chose the Oilers over the Canucks because he's more likely to win a cup there. It seems more reasonable that he chose a team where he was likely to get playing time and a chance to put up big numbers in order to set himself up so that his next contract is a lucrative one. NHL veterans that have already made their millions choose teams that have a shot at the cup, 22 year olds who spent their last 4 years eating kraft dinner for most of their meals look for the best place to make money.

They weren't booing Schultz because they're huge Heat fans who take on the same rivalries as the parent club?
Could have fooled me...

@ drance
why on earth would oiler fans resent the canucks?
other than the odd bit of regular season success over the years, the canucks are perennial losers.
let's all say this together now
"presidents trophies mean nothing"
and i dont read any bitterness between the lines at all.....
