Flyers goalie Brian Boucher stops a shot by Canadiens' Brian Gionta during first-period action Friday night. Ron Cortes/Philadelphia Inquirer/MCT
Preview | Matchups | Friday's NHL schedule | Boone's Game Blog and About last night … | Stubbs on Twitter | Hickey's game story
AUDIO: Dominic Moore | Tomas Plekanec | Jaro Halak | Jacques Martin
• At a Glance: Jaroslav Halak made 35 saves, including 14 in the third period, as the Canadiens weathered a Flyers storm in Philadelphia to hold on for a 1-0 win on Friday night. Tomas Plekanec scored his 24th goal of the season 9:25 into the first period on a nice pass from Andrei Kostitsyn from behind the Flyers net. Plekanec was left pretty much alone and was able to put the puck into the open side of the net behind Brian Boucher. The Canadiens, holding on to the one-goal lead, mustered only 3 shots on Boucher in the third period as the Flyers, who had played on Wednesday night, dominated the final 20 minutes of play. Halak withstood the Flyers onslaught for his fourth shutout of the season.
• Key Moments: The Flyers throught they had tied the game in the third period, but the goal was waved off because the puck was hit with a high stick.
• What It Means: The Canadiens move into sixth spot in the Eastern Conference with 84 points and a 38-32-8 record for 84 points. They are two points up on the Flyers and Bruins, but Boston has a game in hand.
• What's Next: The Canadiens have four games remaining in the regular season starting Saturday night at home against the Sabres. They hit the road for games against the Islanders and Hurricanes next Tuesday and Thursday, respectively, before warpping up the season against the Maple Leafs on April 10.

Basic Mexican Legal Research
Mexico's judicial system is overseen by the Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nation (Avalos, 2000, p. 9). Similar to the U.S. Supreme Court, the Suprema Corte has "final appellate jurisdiction over all state and federal courts" (Avalos, 2000, p. 9). At the federal level, Mexico has both circuit and district courts (Avalos, 2000, p. 9). Mexico also has a Tax Court, Labor Court, and Military Court (Avalos, 2000, p. 10).
Under a savings clause in the 1917 Constitution, each of the thirty one states retains the power to enact its own constitution and laws, provided the laws adopted do not contradict the federal Constitution (Zamora, 2004, p.102). But the apparent analogy to the United States government and federalism falls short; Mexican federalism is generally a highly coordinated autonomy with the federal government maintaining de facto ultimate control (Zamora, 2004, p. 103).
An even more significant difference between the U.S. legal system (Louisiana notwithstanding) and Mexico is that "Mexico is a civil law country" (Olah, 2005, p. 597). But it differs from other civil law countries in that its "roots [] go back to 16th century Spanish law and to Pre-Columbian indigenous law" (Avalos, 2000, p. 1). When the conquistadores conquered Mexico, they imposed a Spanish rule of law, but retained indigenous "laws and legal institutions" that did not conflict with their own legal system (Avalos, 2000,p. 1). Spain also created new laws specific to Mexico (Avalos, 2000, p. 1). Today, however, all Mexican law is derived from the Constitution enacted in 1917, the Constitucion Politica de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos (Avalos, 2000, p. 3-4).
As a civil law country, Mexico also places a great emphasis on its legislatively created law. Legislative law encompasses statutes (leyes or estatudos) and codes (codigos), and, in some instances, executive branch decrees (Zamora, 2004, p. 81). Statutes consist of regulatory laws and ordinary laws, with regulatory laws controlling in case of conflict (Zamora, 2004, p. 81). Codes are "unitary work[s] that integrate[] all norms of a district branch of law in a systematic, comprehensive, organized, and logical manner" (Zamora, 2004, p. 81). Codes are "definitive and self-sufficient bodies of law" (Zamora, 2004, p. 81). It is assumed that legislative law will be adequate to resolve most issues that arise; therefore, statutes and codes tend to be detailed and lengthy (Avalos, 2000, p. 12).
In Mexico, codes are drafted by legal scholars. Because codes in civil law countries are developed by legal scholars, "the 'authorities' of the civil law tradition were, and continue to be legal scholars, and not judges and lawyers" (Avalos, 2000, p. 12). Accordingly, in countries like Mexico, judges and lawyers look to treatises written by prominent scholars, called doctrina, for authority, just as judges and lawyers in this country look to case law (Avalos, 2000, p. 12). Editorial Porrua publishes a series of "doctrinal treatises by the most prominent legal scholars of Mexico" (Avalos, 2000, p. 15).
Amparo suits (or jucio de amparo) are the most important type of cases heard by federal courts (Avalos, 2000, p. 10). Amparo is unique to the Mexican legal system; there is no equivalent action elsewhere (Avalos, 2000, p. 10). Essentially it is a compellation of multiple common law actions, including the writ of habeas corpus, injunction, error, mandamus, and certiorari (Avalos, 2000, p. 10).
The doctrine of stare decisis does not exist, at least in its United States' form. In Mexico, only the legislature can create new law (Avalos, 2000, p. 12-13). The Suprema Corte and federal courts can, however, "establish formally binding precedent called 'jurisprudencia'...by having five consecutive and consistent decisions on a point of law" (Avalos, 2000, p. 13). Jurisprudencia binds the courts that established it, and lower courts. If a treatise refers to jurisprudencia, it is referring to case law, not the study of law (Avalos, 2000, p. 13).
Research on Mexican law begins with a code, or possibly a statute (Avalos, 2000, p. 14). Codes are published by private publishers, primarily Ediciones Andrade and Editorial Porrua (Avalos, 2000, p. 14). And some codes have been translated into English (Avalos, 2000, p.15). Once the proper code is located, scholars must locate the applicable doctrina, or interpretation of the law - the more renowned scholars are published by Editorial Porrua (Avalos, 2000, p. 16). Journals are also a good source for doctrina (Avalos, 2000, p. 16).
Once a researcher has identified the proper codes and doctrine, he or she should search for Suprema Corte jurisprudencia and tesis sobresalientes, important, but not binding decisions (Avalos, 2000, p. 16). Suprema Corte decisions are published in the Semanario Judicial de la Federacion, which is divided into series called Epocas (Avalos, 2000, p. 16-17). "The first four Epocas (1871-1910) are called 'juriprudencia historica'[, and have] no binding force [because] the current Constitution was not [yet adopted]" (Avalos, 2000, p. 17). The Semanario is difficult to use. Therefore, private publishers started publishing decisions "in more accessible formats" (Avalos, 2000, p. 17). Still, many Mexican trained lawyers skip researching jurisprudencia altogether because of its difficulty (Avalos, 2000, p. 18).

Would You Take Dustin Penner Back?
Jonathan Willis
March 06 2012 10:17AM
Dustin Penner is having a horrible season with the Los Angeles Kings. Five goals and 13 points in 48 games isn't the sort of production Dean Lombardi expected when he traded for him, and it isn't going to earn Penner – in the final year of his contract – good dollars next season.
Should the Oilers try to sign him to a bargain contract?
Penner's best season came during 2009-10, a trainwreck of a year for virtually everybody on the Oilers. With Ales Hemsky and Nikolai Khabibulin hurt, AHL-calibre 'tenders in net and Ryan Potulny on the second line, there was a shortage of good news on the team. Dustin Penner's 32 goals led the Oilers by a mile (nobody else got 20), as did his 63 points (Sam Gagner, with 41, was the only other player with more than 40), and he had a pretty good follow-up season before getting moved to Los Angeles.
There are some other positives. Penner's still relatively young; he's not yet 30. He's a career 12.6% shooter, shooting at a 5.7% clip this year – in other words, his goal-scoring is likely to rebound. Additionally, issues in his personal life have been made public, issues that might have some bearing on his terrible season. That gives some reason to believe he could rebound next season.
On the other hand, a lot of fans didn't like Penner even when he was the best offensive player in the lineup. Work ethic has always been something that fans and management have identified as an issue – he was Randy Carlyle's whipping boy in Anaheim, Craig MacTavish had him on a special exercise regimen in Edmonton, and when Dean Lombardi wasn't criticizing Jack Johnson he found time to toss Penner under the bus too.
Is the risk of getting an impact player on the cheap worthwhile? Or did you see enough the first time around?

2nd rate smack coming from a group of fans with ZERO cups in 40 plus years ....... priceless
Just ignore them next time
Absolutely. We should try to get some term as well as value contracts will be essential when we make our run. Advanced stats love the guy, hes big, has hands, and can play in the top 6. You can call him lazy and all that but hes come back from adversity, and silenced all the critics in the past. Also has chemistry with hemsky, and is the same age.Hes a good teamate, leader, and loves edmonton. I would try for 1-2 mil for 5 years but idk if hed go for that.

haha oil fan, or should I say Islanders west, do anything relevant last 5 yrs ?
Oddly enough, the Oilers have the EXACT same number of stanley cup victories as the Canucks in that time frame. Even crazier, the Oilers have the EXACT same number of Stanley Cup final appearances as the canucks since the lockout.
pretty sad when the sh** pile oilers stack up against the mighty canucks in something isnt it?
March 06 2012, 05:16PM
Maybe - I would want to know more about his impact on dressing room chemistry. If he is not particularly disruptive, then I would be happy to sign him.
He could start next year with a clean slate and something to prove. If he is cheap enough, then its not a big deal if he finds himself on the third line for most of the year.
I liked the Penner trade at the time, but I also really like Dustin Penner as a hockey player.
Great point.The mind set in the room has to change from a 29th place team to a contending team.I think this means its time for Hall and Ebs to lead this team and get away from the oldboys club aka Horc,Hemmer,Penner regime.

Thanks - figured that out after the 2nd post. Kinda like arguing with the crack-idled "the end is near" guy handing out flyers. Not very productive.
March 06 2012, 07:15PM
It disgusts me that a man of your writing skill would even ask such a stupid question.
March 06 2012, 08:17PM
All for it on a budget contract. Third line minutes along with some power play time plunked in front of the net.
I would especially love the trade of the decade - Penner for Klefblom, Teubert, a second round pick and Penner. Rates right up there with the Thornton trade.
It's this kind of talk that will keep the Oilers a toilet bowl contender for years to come.......
If Klefbom and Teubert become good or better NHL players you could make an argument.
Right now all we know is we lost a big LW that is a hockey player, and we're playing Eager as a result. No gain in toughness, big loss in potential productivity and skill.
If Penner wants to come back cheap, it's not like there are a lot of guys that are available that have his skill set to play opposite Eberle.
Gagner benefited a lot from Penner on his wing.
What does Penner bring that Jones or Petrell or Smyth don't?

What does Penner bring that Jones or Petrell or Smyth don't?
He certainly brings a hell of a lot more then Petrell.
Thanks - figured that out after the 2nd post. Kinda like arguing with the crack-idled "the end is near" guy handing out flyers. Not very productive.
Im all for fans from other teams reading our site. I`m all for them posting, talking a bit of constructive trash in good taste. Once in while you get a guy making a garbage comment like today, hes ignored, and he never comes back.
I just don`t want this site becoming a garbage site. This is one of the best blogs out there, where people can say their peace, make constructive comments, and have a good read. Just want it to continue.
March 07 2012, 05:40PM
"Would You Take Dustin Penner Back?" No way. Great guy, hope he gets his game back, but the plan should be develop forwards from within. Seems like "value" players get signed when you're ready to contend.
March 07 2012, 06:03PM
What does Penner bring that Jones or Petrell or Smyth don't?
Skill, production and an ability to at least measure up in scoring chances and scoring against opposition's top lines.

High-speed chase ends in arrest in Johnson City
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - A Johnson City man faces several charges, accused of speeding through neighborhoods while police tried to stop him.

Police say, Rose did not stop and sped through the Tree Streets area of the city.

Song Video
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them o'er your shoulder
like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Do your ears hang high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they droop when they are wet?
Do they stiffen when they're dry?
Can you semaphore your neighbour
with a minimum of labour?
Do your ears hang high?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Can you use them for a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly at the top?
Can you use them for a swatter?
Can you use them for a blotter?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Do your ears hang out?
Can you waggle them about?
Can you flip them up and down
as you fly around the town?
Can you shut them up for sure
when you hear an awful bore?
Do your ears hang out?

Information About Do Your Ears Hang Low
"Do Your Ears Hang Low?" is a children's song probably of American origin and popular with children to sing around campfires. The melody of this song comes from "Turkey in the Straw".
American Folklorist Vance Randolph collected this song in 1941 but it wasn't until 1992 that it first appeared in print in the book "Randolph, Roll Me in Your Arms".
The origin of the song is unknown but there is some suggestion a version was sung by soldiers in the American Civil War.

This version has the verses in a different order
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie 'em in a knot?
Can you tie 'em in a bow?
Can you throw them over your shoulder
like a Continental Soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Do your ears Flip Flop?
Can you use them as a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly at the top?
Can you put them in a shower
With a giant daisy flower?
Do your ears Flip Flop?
Does your tongue hang out?
Can you shake it all about?
When you try to tuck it in,
does it just hang out?
Can you roll it to the ground,
with a clunk and a pound?
Does your tongue hang out?
Do your eyes pop out?
Can you roll them all about?
can you bat them like a ball?
they would fly without a doubt.
can you take them with you bowlin'?
They would surely go a-rollin'.
Do your eyes pop out?

Do your ears hang wide?
Do they flap from side to side?
Do they wave in the breeze?
From the slightest little sneeze?
Can you soar above the nation with a feeling of elation?
Do your ears hang wide?
Do your ears hang askew?
Can you use one stirring stew,
while the others picking berries,
or making mountain dew?
Can you hold an elevator,
while you signal to a waiter?
Do your ears hang askew?
Do your ears fall off?
When you give a great big cough?
Do they lie there on the ground?
Or bounce up at every sound?
Can you stick them in your pocket like little Davy Crockett?
Do your ears fall off?
Do your eyeballs droop?
Do they wobble in your soup?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a loop?
Can you throw them o'er your shoulder,
Like a continental soldier?
Do your eyeballs droop?
Does your nose hang down?
Does it drag upon the ground?
Can you tie it in a knot?
Can you tie it in a crown?
Can you throw it over your shoulder,
Like a continental soldier?
Does your nose hang down?
Do your eyes bug out?
Do they roll around your snout?
Do you go cross-eyed,
When you're looking for a trout?
Can you see your image clearer,
Without looking in the mirror?
Do your eyes bug out?
Does yo chain hang low
Do it wobble to the flo'
Do it shine in the light
Is it platinum is it gold
Could you throw it over your shoulder
If you're hot would it make you cold
Do yo chain hang low.

I made up a verse to go with the first (that's the only verse I learned). It goes like this: Are your feet too large?/are they as big as a barge?/do you waddle like a duck?/can you float just like a boat?/do you tickle your nose/when you wiggle your toes?/are your feet too large? This site is the greatest!

Skip to comments.Ancient Baby Graveyard Not for Child Sacrifice, Scientists Say
Posted on 09/20/2012 1:09:45 PM PDT by Renfield
A Carthaginian burial site was not for child sacrifice but was instead a graveyard for babies and fetuses, researchers now say.
A new study of the ancient North African site offers the latest volley in a debate over the primary purpose of the graveyard, long thought to be a place of sacred sacrifice.
"It's all very great, cinematic stuff, but whether that was a constant daily activity ― I think our analysis contradicts that," said study co-author Jeffrey Schwartz of the University of Pittsburgh....
(Excerpt) Read more at livescience.com ...
.... for your consideration.
Wow! They had Planned Parenthood way back then?
At least they recognized that a fetus was a baby and deserving of burial. Here we just rinse unwanted children down the garbage disposal or fling them in the dumpster.
The Greeks and Romans would decide whether a baby was worthy and if not, leave it out somewhere to die. Its called "exposure".
They worshipped Moloch, a fake "god" so awful he's mentioned in the Torah; chief attribute they sacrified babies to it.
I'll go for "contemporary accounts" vs. counter-intuitive balooney trying to make the Bible look bad for $100 Alex.
The Greeks and Romans didn't
That's a great tag line. May I quote that?
re: cremated remains of thousands of babies, young goats and lambs
So, they find the cremated remains of babies with goats, and lambs. And we are supposed to believe that the Carthaginians, who were reported in the Bible to practice child sacrifice to their pagan gods, weren't really sacrificing anything. They were just participating in sacred burial rituals for all the babies and animals that routinely died.
Be my guest!
Curiously, looking up you will see that the official name is Plaza Topete. Like the location cited in the article here, it was originally the location of a Phoenician temple (tophet) from which it gets it's name. At the site there were the remains of numerous infants. The oral history say this was where the Phoenicians would sacrifice their first born child. Not surprisingly, the citizens prefer to call it the place of flowers rather than by that gruesome reference.
I note the skepticism in the article about human sacrifice, I only note that the site in the article is not unique in reputation.
Lots of Archaeologists like to discourage the belief in human sacrifice.
Many people have made careers spinning that the Aztecs and Maya didn't practice human sacrifice, and that it was all Spanish lies.
thanks all, will ping later, meanwhile...
Phoenicia's Stone Coffins, Child-Eating Gods Emerge in Paris
A burial site for a baby, apart from that of the family into which it was born? Uummm. Credulous creature that I am, why of course those "scientists" must right!
Dear Leader calls them burdens.
My Thoughts exactly
Well said!

Thanks Renfield, momtothree, and NYer.
The Spartans looked over each newborn child and if it was unhealthy or had any birth defects, they would leave it to die. Only the healthiest and strongest were chosen to live. Just watched a two hour special on the Spartans...very interesting.
STOP! You're BOTH right! For certs, they had to do something respectful with the victims' remains, or the gods would have vomited up the sacrifices as unworthy.
The argument against infant sacrifice in the article seems long on conjecture and short on facts. They even argue the Carthaginians wouldn't waste precious wood on infant sacrifices despite the evidence the bodies were indeed cremated.
I wholeheartedly agree. Those who deny infant sacrifice among the Phoenicians have some kind of agenda, and it probably has to do with the instructions from the local political authorities. Same thing happened with Egypt's "no slavery in ancient Egypt" requirement. And that one's clearly ridiculous — "oh, look, we found dozens of bakeries to feed the workers who built the Giza pyramids — that means they weren't slaves." Complete stupidity.

Cuter than it looks
"I hesitated to try this on since it was a slip on and I thought it would be an "old lady" shoe. However, once I got it on, it felt wonderful and looked "spunky" and young. You can't really tell it is a slip on because you can tighten the laces. Also, they are very comfy."

The Business and Ethics Forum, presented every other Thursday throughout DSU's spring semester, will be held in the Boeing Auditorium (Room 121) of the DSU Udvar-Hazy Business Building. DSU students, faculty and staff, the entire Washington County business community, and the general public are all invited to attend. Admission is free.
Bridges founded BWP in St. George, which is an independent financial planning firm that focuses on finding and implementing responsible money solutions for client's current and future financial needs and goals. Prior to establishing BWP, Bridges worked over 26 years in several areas of the financial services industry, including fee-based planning, estate planning, securities, fee-based wealth management and insurance.
The series will continue March 6, with a presentation by Joel Deceuster, marketing strategist for the St. George Area Chamber of Commerce. In addition, Bryan Thiriot, executive director for the Five County Association of Governments, will address the forum March 20, and Dixie Leavitt, founder of the Leavitt Insurance Agency, will wrap up the semester schedule with a presentation April 10.
The DSU Business and Ethics Forum is held every other Thursday throughout the fall and spring semesters, with each guest lecturer speaking on business matters in their respective professions and how ethics are introduced into the discussion.
The bi-monthly forum, along with campus' Institute for Business Integrity, was created by former DSU president Dr. Robert Huddleston in 2006, as a way to integrate ethics into the curriculum, and have it serve as a blueprint to ensure that students graduate with a set of ethical tools to help them get along in the professional world.
In 2006-07, Dixie State's business program sought initial accreditation with the high profile Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). In order to become accredited with the AACSB, ethics were required to be integrated into the college's business curriculum. As a result, each business class on the DSU campus now includes an ethical component.
Dr. Huddleston noted that the business forums will give students – and current and prospective local business owners – an added dose of ethics training that is so sorely needed into today's business world. His hope is that by the time students leave Dixie State, they have been exposed to enough ethical cases that, when they get out in the workforce, they will have the wherewithal and the intestinal fortitude to do the right thing, even when their job might be on the line.
"The Institute for Business Integrity has brought an important opportunity for the business community, as well as DSU faculty and students, to emphasize the significance of social responsibility for business and industry in Washington County," said Huddleston. "As research indicates, ethics contribute to employee commitment, investor loyalty, customer satisfaction and to profits."
The Dixie State University Institute for Business Integrity is a partnership between the DSU Udvar-Hazy School of Business, the Small Business Development Center, the Washington County Economic Development Council, and the St. George Area Chamber of Commerce.
For questions regarding the DSU Institute for Business Integrity forums, contact Dr. Huddleston at firstname.lastname@example.com or 435-652-7740.

There's a different tone Friday: A strong reading on the economy didn't harm the price of gold.
The sort of news that greeted investors this morning, the creation of 203,000 new jobs in the U.S., used to get a Bronx cheer in both the stock and gold markets. The logic was something like Stronger economy = stingier Federal Reserve = higher interest rates = less support for stocks, less reason to own gold. While stocks invariably shrugged it off, gold didn't. The metal entered Friday with a 26% loss during 2013.
Fast forward to Friday. Gold futures are advancing by 0.2% to $1,235. SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), ahead by 0.5% to $118.92, is ahead of the ETF's intraday fair value this morning, a signal of demand. Silver prices are flat. But iShares Silver Trust (SLV) is ahead by 0.8%.
With the stock market's advance of nearly 1% Friday, it sure looks like Mr. Market is trying to put the Fed fear trade in the past. Here's what Commerzbank's commodity strategists said on the subject this morning as they look to 2014 — they expect gold's price to retake $1,400 by the end of next year:
The two most important negative factors for investment demand this year – higher real interest rates and the upward movement in the equity markets – should become less important in 2014[.] Our economists expect the US Federal Reserve to start scaling back its bond purchasing programme from March/April. As soon as the first step has been taken, the associated uncertainty should be dispelled and the pressure on the gold price should ease. For bond purchases can be expected to be reduced gradually and expectations about an interest rate hike by the Fed to be kept in check verbally. This could prevent any sharper rise in longterm interest rates. Inflation rates are also likely to increase again from their currently very low level, thus preventing a further rise in real interest rates next year. Nor is it realistic to expect the US equity market to move up again by 25% in 2014 on the back of a less expansionary US monetary policy.
So, is it an argument for a buying spree? The cautious bull would let the speculative money go first:
[T]he impetus for an increase in the gold price will probably have to come from speculative financial investors. These investors were also the first to start scaling back their bets about rising prices in summer 2011 shortly before the all-time high was reached, thus heralding the end of the upward surge. The chances of this group of investors returning to the market next year are good. Speculative financial investors have now largely exited the gold market, as evident from the fact that net long positions are at a 7-year low[.] The negative market sentiment towards gold is also reflected in negative media reports and for the most part pessimistic price forecasts. All of this may indicate a rapid reversal of the trend. After the price has successfully bottomed out, gold ETFs should report inflows again from the second quarter, supporting the price recovery.
Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is ahead by 1.1%. Leveraged ETFs Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 3X Shares (DUST) and Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bull 3X Shares (NUGT) are moving by 3% apiece.

By By RICHARD SHAWEmery County Progress publisher
Jerry Anderson said that at about 9:30 p.m. on Nov. 5, 2012 his phone started ringing and it didn't stop again until 9:30 a.m. the next morning. Those calls were coming from people who were congratulating him on winning a seat in the Utah State Legislature, with the first session he will be involved in starting on Jan. 28.
There were also calls of concern about issues that people are interested in as well. Anderson becomes the first Republican legislator representing the entirety of Carbon County since the 1920s. A revamped district resulting from the 2010 census numbers, the district (House District 69) stretches from Grand County up through Duchesne county from Moab to Fruitland.
"I have already done a lot of traveling for the job," said Anderson. Being a legislator isn't only about being at the capitol during the regular session, but also includes meeting with constituents, attending county meetings that deal with issues that people in their district want their representative to be involved in, interim committee meetings in Salt Lake and other events they must attend.
For Anderson, who had run three times for the seat he has finally attained, the roller coaster that is the legislature is just beginning. But he has some definite views about the state, the role of the federal government and what has been going on in the last few years.
"After the chores of bringing in coal and wood for the fire, and taking out the ashes, there is some time to ponder the situation we are in here in eastern Utah," he recorded in a written statement to the Emery County Progress recently. "We live in an area rich in resources: coal, oil, natural gas, timber, oil shale, tar-sands, uranium and gilsonite, to name a few. Unfortunately there are forces at work bringing restrictive regulations and threats to close our coal mines, shut down our power plants, make our abundant resources unavailable and keep us off the public lands. The idea of 'We the people' has given way to 'the government has decided.'"
Anderson sees the state as the only thing standing between what he views as oppressive federal power and the right of citizens to pursue their dreams and opportunities.
"Here in the heart of coal country we have more cars parked in the MSHA office parking lot than you will see at any of our beleaguered coal mines," he stated. "There are more regulators than workers. The state must stand as a bulwark against the restrictive over-reach of the federal government. There are many challenges facing state officials; judicial, legislative and executive alike, but we are ready to face those challenges and represent Utah to the best of our collective abilities."
Anderson said he is proud of Utah, because of its openness toward business and the good financial and strategic management that has taken place over the years to make it one of the best states to live in in the country.
"We are fortunate to live in a state that is at the forefront of good management," he related. "It is an area that is foremost in favorable places for business to thrive, an area that is filled with people who are more than willing to help where help is needed, and where we are blessed with plenty of bright and beautiful children to take advantage of our thriving educational systems."
Anderson said he's proud of the heritage of those in the past who have represented Carbon County, Emery County and this area at the legislature.
"Our legislators in the past have represented us with exceptional wisdom and understanding. It is difficult to predict all of the consequences resulting from new laws, and sometimes there are unintended 'mistakes,' but John Garr, Mike Dmitrich, Omar Bunnell, Brad King and others have been notable in keeping the interests of our area always in focus," stated Anderson.
Anderson says he is looking forward to his time in the legislature and being able to help the people of the area. Having been a science teacher with a bachelor's degree from the University of Utah and master's degree from BYU, his interests are varied and diverse. He is a collector of coins and postage stamps, a beekeeper, a photographer, a potter and a sculptor.
Anderson, who is originally from Salt Lake, ended up in eastern Utah in kind of a different way from many people. He heard an announcement while driving through Sanpete County that coal miners were needed in Emery County. That was in 1979, and he wanted to do something different so he became a coal miner. He worked for a short time at the Wilberg Mine and decided instead he still wanted to teach. So he began working locally and ended up at Harrier High School.
Overall Anderson taught at a number of places. He worked in Wyoming for many years, taught in California and Arizona and eventually did instruction at what is known as Utah Valley University today.
Anderson has also received a number of honors during his life. He has accepted awards for being the outstanding biology teacher of the year, a Krista McAuliffe fellowship award and international teaching fellowship. He has also served on the board of the Utah Science Teacher Association.
"I am excited for the opportunity to serve as the elected representative (to the legislature) for this area. I am available to hear your concerns and wishes for progress. My communication lines will be open for your use as the new year gets underway and I am officially installed as your new representative," he concluded.

Cute but Not Very Comfortable
"Had to return these because they were not very comfortable. The back at the heel was abrasive and there was little support overall. But they were cute and if they'd felt better I'd have kept them."

If it's one piece pirates vs naruto ninja's than I think Pirates win easy. If they are both real world than I still think Pirates win easy. Real Pirates use Guns and Guns are better than Shuriken.
they can dodge bullets lol
Guardian of RainYamamoto Takeshi
It depends, whos got home court advantage
For one piece vs. naruto there should be a one on one face off, strongest from naruto vs. strongest from one piece. that should settle it
(Personally i'm cheering on the pirates)
Why don't more people read these mangas?
Pirates.The Will of D would stomp on a shinobi's heart.
'We need emotional content' -Bruce Lee
Much as I love Shinobi, where are they fighting? Pirates have ships and cannons, how did the ninja get to them? Are they attempting to board a pirate ship and take it by force? If so my bet is on the pirates. However if the pirates sent a landing party that encountered ninja, well then my bet goes the other way. For that matter are we talking about Naruto or Basilisk ninja or real historic ones, if we are talking about anime ninja, then the pirates are screwed. I'll reserve my vote till I have some answers to these questions.

Why don't more people read these mangas?
Pirates. Because i like Captain Jack Sparrow :ossu
I voted Pirates, but it depends.
If Pirates can have Devil Fruits abilities, okay. If not, ninjas would win.

Washington State author Sandra Byrd will be at the Wenatchee Public Library September 20th 7p.m - 9 p.m.
She will be reading from her Ladies in Waiting series. Book 1, To Die For is a historical novel about Anne Boleyn. Library Journal listed this as one of the best books of 2011, and the book is also a 2012 Christy Award Finalist. Book 2, The Secret Keeper is about Kateryn Parr. This novel was just published in June 2012 . The third novel in the series, Roses Have Thorns is about Elizabeth I. This will be published in 2013. At the program Sandra will read from her novels, and there will also be a slide show about Henry VIII and his wives. She will also recommend other Tudor books. It should be an interesting program. I enjoy historical novels about England.
Hard to believe that it is the 6th of August. I hope everyone has had an enjoyable summer so far, with fun vacations and plenty of time to read!!

Savage home attack likely over painkillers
SULLIVAN COUNTY, Tenn. - A 65-year-old man is brutally beaten inside his Sullivan County home.
Deputies say John Byrd was hurt so badly he had to be rushed to the hospital, where he got over 100 stitches. "My husband went down to the hospital at 4 to check on him because they said he might not make it," says Regina Kitzmiller, a neighbor.
Detectives aren't releasing many details, but say Byrd remembers being hit in the head, but doesn't know what type of weapon the attacker used to beat him.
"The police said it looked like a murder scene, there was so much blood," says Kitzmiller.
Officers believe he lay inside his house, in and out of consciousness, for more than an hour before being able to call the sheriff's office. "The victim lost a lot of blood. He's lucky that he survived and was eventually able to call for help," says Leslie Earhart with the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office.
The sheriff's office tells us Byrd was likely targeted because someone found out he had prescribed painkillers. The pills had been stolen.
Deputies are asking for anyone with any information to contact them.
Byrd has been released from the hospital.

SCHOPP: Beat these people
by Mike Schopp
posted Jul 18 2012 10:32AM
As many of you know I'm not the world's biggest football fan. I like it, I don't love it. My portal into sports is by talking about and analyzing them, and I often find football talk lacking. But I don't find the sport's popularity surprising. It's played in short, manageable seasons; the big plays and big hits are thrilling; the field fits perfectly on a modern TV screen, making football easy to look at; and the emotions that ripple through huge crowds at massive stadiums are unmatched by probably any sport except soccer.
I loved football when I was a teenager though, and I was an NFL Films junkie. I can still recite from memory some of John Facenda's lines from the Super Bowl wrapups. Facenda, who died in 1984, is my all-time favorite sports announcer. Not only did he have The Greatest Voice Ever, he was known for meticulously editing his words and his cadences to best fit the footage, and in turn, do the best job possible in telling the story. Every detail mattered to Facenda, and the words were music to him. Facenda would actually use musical notations (staccato, legato) on his script to help him remember just the way he wanted it. I loved him.
I think the Facenda/NFL Films partnership peaked in the mid-70s. (What, you didn't have an opinion on this?) The 1974 year in review is one of my favorites, partly because the Bills made the playoffs that year and they're featured prominently in the show. It's not a Facenda line, but there's a quote from that show that has stuck with me.
We see the Bills drop a close one in Miami, 35-28, and we get a couple of clips from the losing locker room. Of course the Bills were on a losing streak against the Dolphins -- one we know that would last until 1980 -- and Miami was the two-time Super Bowl champ. Bills coach Lou Saban is asked a question about how his team can feel good about one of the game's positives, despite losing. Saban's response was beautiful:
"It was still 35-28, that's all I remember," Saban said. "We've got to beat these people one of these days."
The promising 2012 Bills season opens September 9 against the Jets, a team that has won five straight and seven of eight against Buffalo. The most recent meeting, last November 27, was a game the Bills should've had. They blew a late lead and squandered great chances on their last drive en route to another defeat from Rex Ryan's Jets.
The start of this season of optimism is wrapped up by that game and Saban's old quote. There's your chance, Bills, to show that things really are different. Things that matter in football aren't won in March, or at the draft. They're won in the fall and winter. It's fine if writers power-rank you ahead of the Jets. What matters is beating them.
I've been fired up for that game since well before the schedule even came out. As soon as last year ended I was saying that I wanted to see Bills-at-Jets Week 1, 2012. No better way to show you've moved ahead. This isn't beating Kansas City last year, a fluky division winner, or Seattle, or Houston, or any of the frauds the Bills have taken out in openers recently. The Jets aren't great but they outrank you until show different.
Beat the Jets and take it from there.
I'm tired of forcing compliments on our teams simply because I get sick of being negative. I want the Bills and Sabres to earn the praise. It shouldn't be that hard to know good from bad. They do keep records in these sports. I don't want Ryan Fitzpatrick to be good for a seventh-round pick, I want him to be good. To mix metaphors with my favorite sport, baseball, I don't want the Bills to be fast for a catcher. I want them to fly.
Off-season optimism is fun, and it beats the alternative. But you've got to beat these people to truly impress. You've got to beat them.

Academic Paper
|The African languages in South African education 2009–2011
|Rosemary Wildsmith-Cromarty
|University of KwaZulu-Natal
|Linguistic Field:
|Applied Linguistics; Sociolinguistics
|South African National Language Education policy (South Africa, DoE 2002) enshrines multilingualism (ML) as one of its major goals. The implementation of such a policy is a slow process, however, particularly in the educational domain, where parents, teachers and students favour the dominant, ex-colonial language (English) for both historic and instrumental reasons (Dalvit & de Klerk 2005). However, results of the National Benchmarking Test (NBMT Report 2009) conducted at selected South African universities show that most non-English speaking students in higher education have underdeveloped language and numeracy skills for study at this level, one of the main barriers to access being that of language (Council on Higher Education 2007: 2). Efforts have thus intensified in South African institutions to introduce the home languages of learners into the educational domain, either as learning support alongside the main medium of instruction or as alternative languages of instruction, working towards the development of a bilingual education model. This report documents developments in research in the promotion and use of the African languages in education in South Africa in recent years, particularly since the publication of the previous report (Wildsmith-Cromarty 2009), which discussed various initiatives in the teaching, development and use of the African languages in South African education during the period 2005–2008. This report considers further developments in the use of the African languages for academic purposes in the following areas: the learning and teaching of these languages as additional languages and for professional purposes in selected disciplines for specialist programmes, and their intellectualization, which includes their use as languages of instruction, in the translation of materials and other learning resources, and development of terminology.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports Writer
Last week was a great week for the Emery High Lady Spartans as they thoroughly dominated region foes Delta and Carbon in basketball. On Tuesday, Emery defeated Delta 54-38 in the Spartan Center and then on Thursday traveled to Price and defeated the host team 61-31.
Emery won every facet of the Carbon game as they executed on offense and defense almost to perfection, handing the defending state champions their worst loss in years. Carbon Head Coach Bruce Bean said the last time Carbon was beaten this bad was the year Union won state, and that was years ago. Coach Bean added, "Emery executed really well and we didn't. Emery is a great team. They took us totally out of our game."
Emery had four players that scored at least 9 points and six players that had at least five individual stats in the game. Individual stats are rebounds, assists, steals and blocks. Emery Head Coach Steve Gordon on his players, "This was a great effort. If we can have that every night, we will make hay. Everybody contributed, everybody was ready to play, this was great. This was a quality win. We beat a pretty good team, the defending state champs, on their own floor."
To start the game, Emery had three straight turnovers before Jodie Lundell finally hit for 2 points. This is to be expected in a rivalry game, as players are just normally tight to start. After falling behind 5-6, Emery loosened up and scored the next nine points to grab a 14-6 lead before Carbon finished out the quarter with a 2-point basket. Camille Fehlberg paced the Spartans with 8 points and 3 steals in the quarter.
In the second quarter, both teams played great defense as the teams were only able to score a total of 13 points in the period. Emery won the quarter 9-4 to lead at the half 23-12. Jodie hit a three in the period to finish the half with 7 points and Shala Pitchforth had 4 points as she scored twice inside. Shala did a great job on the boards all night as she finished with at least 10 rebounds.
A smothering Emery defense confused the Dinos in the third quarter as Emery opened the quarter on a 13-0 run, as no one on the Carbon team looked like they wanted the ball in their hands let alone to shoot the ball. Carbon finally scored on a couple of free throws just after four minutes were gone and Jamie King hit Carbon's first field goal with 2:18 left in the quarter. Emery won the period 20-6 to lead 43-18.
Emery won the final quarter 18-13 to dominate the game. Scoring for Emery were Camille with 14 points, Shala with 10 points, Alexis Swasey and Jodie with 9 points each, Ashley Hansen and Tahna Merrell with 4 points each, Callie Seeley and Natalee Hanson each with a three pointer, Meagan Pearson and Shalae Cox with 2 points and Jodi Robertson with a free throw.
Coach Gordon told his players after the game, "The press was pretty effective tonight. Everybody was active and hustling. We shot the ball pretty well tonight and everybody executed. Great game."
Against Delta, Emery used a good third quarter to break open the game and then cruised to another region win. After leading 28-19 at the half, Emery won the third quarter 11-2 to lead 39-21 at the break.
Emery scored the first 7 points of the game with Alexis scoring the first four, to grab a lead that they would never let go of.
Delta was kept off stride by Emery's smothering defense. Emery held Delta to only 2 fourth quarter points before the subs hit the floor. Emery held Delta's top scorer to only three points in the game.
Camille led the team with 16 points, 7 rebounds, 2 steals and a blocked shot. Jodie hit four 3-pointers and finished with 14 points and 4 rebounds. Natalee and Alexis each had 6 points, 2 rebounds and a steal. Ashley had 5 points, ShiAnne Allred had 4 points late in the final quarter and Meagan and Callie each had a basket. Shala had 10 rebounds and 3 blocked shots to contribute to the win.
Emery went 5-0 through the first half of region play with the second half starting this Thursday with Emery traveling to North Sanpete.

Tell us a little bit about your love affair with brewing and you might be chosen to snag some fresh, wet hops. But not only that, you'll join Victory brewer Kyler Gretz and help with the harvest too! The 2nd generation Chinook and Centennial hops are likely to be ready for harvest at the end of July.
You'll take home enough hops to brew a batch or two of any recipe you design. All we ask is for a photo and a review of how you think the recipe turned out and the hops performed.
As you know, hops mature at a rate we can't control. Therefore, the hops will dictate the date which we schedule the harvest. We ask the selected homebrewers to be as flexible as possible in order to assure the best, freshest hops are harvested.
"We admire Kyler's dedication to brewing at all levels. As a home brewer myself, I would have jumped at the opportunity to brew with fresh, wet hops. With that in mind, we are happy to give that opportunity to other aspiring brewers."
~Bill Covaleski, President and Brewmaster
Please complete the following information by July 13 to be entered. We will notify you on Wednesday, July 18th if you are selected to join in the harvest and secure some wet hops. Note, the number of brewers chosen to join us will be determined by the expected yield of the harvest.
The contest has been closed.

He graduated with a master's degree in hotel management from the world-renowned Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne. Following graduation, Heinz sought out and accepted positions to open and manage only those hotel establishments rated as five star. These opportunities afforded him the chance to travel the world. His assignments included overseeing some of the finest chefs, allowing him to experience and experiment with many different cultural cuisine and food combinations. His travels took him throughout Europe, Africa and then on to Asia, where he managed at the Hong Kong Peninsula - one of the world's most exclusive hotels. Subsequently, the Peninsula Group asked him to head a project in San Francisco. These exposures and adventures combined to conceive The Tea Room - a chocolate and tea company that maintains the cultural and culinary background acquired by Heinz. His vision of providing a delicately handcrafted chocolate infused with a perfectly steeped cup of tea is realized in each tasty morsel The Tea Room creates.

While Garmin-Cervelo's Q-Rings converts Heinrich Haussler and Christian Vande Velde win races and build form towards July aboard Rotor's non-traditional ovalized chainrings, not everyone on the team made the switch. Cameron Meyer is one rider on the team who depends on Rotor's standard round chainrings. In fact he rode them to his overall win at the Tour Down Under. These Rotor Round Road Outer Chainrings are built in identical fashion to their Q-Rings, save for the ovalized shaping. Like other high-quality chainrings on the market, they have stainless steel pins and machined ramps for superb shifting from the small ring and back.
Rotor Round Road Outer Chainrings are CNC machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, and they have a hard anodized black finish with laser etched silver graphics on the outboard side. They fit Rotor Agilis and 3D Cranksets and are also compatible with any crankset using 110 or 130mm BCD (bolt circle diameter). They're available in two sizes -- 50t/110mm, 53t/130mm.

Campy compatible?
