According to Mississippi Highway Patrol Cpl. Chris Turnipseed, Ronald Johnson, 47, of Houston, was driving a Toyota Camry eastbound on Highway 32 near Ross Hill around 5 p.m. when he said he fell asleep and his car moved into the westbound lane.
James Wofford, 46, of Woodland, was driving the log truck and said he was traveling west when he saw the car and swerved to try to avoid it.
Johnson's car collided with the back wheels of the log truck and he was extricated from the vehicle and airlifted to North Mississippi Medical Center with non-life-threatening but serious injuries.
Wofford had no injuries.
Both were wearing seat belts.

Great Clearance Buy
"I needed a pair of beige pumps for my wardrobe, and my friend also needed a pair to cover in glitter for her wedding. I decided I'd give these a try since I'm on a tight budget and don't wear heels often enough to justify spending any more than 25, 30 dollars on them. I liked these so much that I ordered a 2nd pair, one for the wedding, and one for a wardrobe staple. Very pleased."

Cuba Too Much for Team Canada in Opening Match of Winnipeg Super-Series
WINNIPEG – In the opening match of their three game 'Super-Series' with Cuba the Team Canada Women were defeated 3-0 in straight sets this afternoon at the University of Manitoba's Investors Group Athletic Centre. Set scores in favour of the Cubans were 25-17, 25-17 and 25-21.
Sarah Pavan (Kitchener, ON) led the Canadian attack with 10 points while Tiffany Dodds (Lucky Lake, SK) contributed with eight points of her own. Kenia Carcaces Opon led the offensive effort for Cuba with 17 points on 14 kills, two blocks and one service ace, Gyselle de la Caridad Silva Franco finished with 13 points.
The match also acted as the Team Canada Volleyball Centre's 'annual schools game' where over 1,000 local students attended, cheering non-stop from the stands from start to finish despite the Team Canada loss.
"During the first two sets we were not competing at the level we had to be," said Arnd Ludwig, Team Canada's Head Coach. "We were making too many errors. In the third set we started pressuring them and stayed close until the end, when we started to let them take too many points off of us." Of the next two matches he says, "I want to see more confidence right from the beginning."
The three game Super-Series offers local fans a rare opportunity to see Team Canada's top line up face internationally top-ranked Cuba in Winnipeg for multiple matches. Both the Canadian (ranked 24th in the world) and Cuban (ranked 6th) National teams are showing off their A-Squads as the Super-Series is acting as part of their preparations and lead up to the World Championships taking place a few weeks later in Japan.
Games two and three of the Super-Series take place this Thursday and Friday evening (October 7th & 8th) at 7:30pm, both at the University of Manitoba's Investors Group Athletic Centre. Tickets are $10 with a group rate of $7.50, and are available at the door or through www.volleyball.ca.
Canada's roster for the Super-Series includes:
Lauren O'Reilly (Langley, BC), Carla Bradstock (Richmond, BC)
Outside Hitters

The 2014 Douglas County preliminary budget shows no increases in taxes or fees and an anticipated revenue stream that falls $5 million short of anticipated expenditures — a difference that will be accounted for out of the county's reserves.
This year's expenditures, currently anticipated to be $241.8 million, are highlighted by $51 million slated for public safety, $43.7 million on capital improvements and infrastructure, $32.8 million on health and human services and $29.2 million on public works. The four categories account for 65 percent of all expenditures.
Specific big-ticket items are led by the $13.4 million planned to be spent on concrete and asphalt projects, as well as other aging infrastructure maintenance, most of which will occur in Highlands Ranch, said county budget manager Martha Marshall.
Other items of note include $3 million in match funding for the C-470 expansion project; $2.3 million for the U.S. 85 connector project near Titan Road; $2 million for the final phase of the justice center expansion project; $1.3 million for the Lone Tree Light Rail partnership with RTD and the City of Lone Tree to help complete the southeast extension and fund three new stations; and $1 million for the East-West Regional Trail Extension, a multi-agency and jurisdiction project that plans to construct the final eight miles of trail to connect Lone Tree and Parker.
The bulk of the anticipated $236.8 million in revenue will come from property taxes, $104.5 million; sales and use tax, $47.7 million; intergovernmental business, $35.6 million; and services, $32.1 million, according to finance director Andrew Copeland.
"(The commissioners) made it clear that the budget should reflect fiscal conservatism and that it shouldn't include raising or growing government, raising taxes or fees and that we should try to be efficient, effective and stay focused on being good stewards of other people's monies, but also make sure what we do spend is furthering the board's goals on behalf of the community in a manner that actually helps solve problems," said Douglas County manager Doug DeBord.
"The budget that we are talking about reflects many of those values."
Keeping with the spirit of fiscal conservatism, there are no plans to add any full-time, county-funded positions at this time, DeBord added. Instead the county will invest in technology, look at using temporary help as needed and contract out larger projects to take advantage of some of the expertise that exists in the private sector.
The preliminary budget was presented to the commissioners Oct. 22 and will now be discussed at three separate meetings between the county's finance staff and the board prior to Nov. 25. The budget, as it stands now, does not include any previously budgeted items that will be reappropriated for 2014. Those items will be included in the final proposed budget, which will be ready for adoption Dec. 10.
The preliminary budget may be viewed at www.douglas.co.us.

It may seem a bit unusual, but the choosing of the Ferron mayor came down to a coin toss. Current council members with the exception of anyone vying for the office of mayor voted on the mayor position. It came out to be a tie with council member JoAnne Behling receiving two votes and former council member Rod Toomer receiving two votes.
Acting Mayor Trent Jackson said the proper procedure at that point was to flip a coin to determine the new mayor. Behling called heads and heads came up and she was sworn in as the new mayor by Adele Justice, city recorder. The applicants for mayor included: JoAnn Behling, Eric Howes, Kathy Jenkins,
Dale Roper Lou Sansevero and Rod Toomer. Behling during her introduction said, "I would like to do the job. I have been a city recorder, county treasurer and I love the city and I love the people. I feel like I could contribute. I love Ferron and am grateful to be here and for the association of the people here."
Mayor Behling then took the mayor's chair and her first official act was to call for the meeting to go into executive session to discuss pending litigation.
Jackson conducted the meeting to this point as the approval of the new mayor was near the end of the agenda. The council heard reports from each member. Behling reported she attended the special service district meeting where they said the final inspection of the Molen Road was upcoming. There will be a cut in the number of streets to be paved. There is also a reduction in the curb and gutter. These projects will still be done, but not as much area will be covered. Behling also said the CVSSD requested Ferron prepare a list of future projects they wish to accomplish in the city.
Jackson reported Tab Weihing has been hired as an employee in the recreation district. Ferron City still has its recreation money from the district which hasn't been spent this year. Jackson is waiting to see who will take over the baseball program because it has been requested the money be used for a pitching machine.
On Dec. 1 will be the Ferron Town Christmas party. Jackson will contact the youth council and begin the plans for the celebration. He also reported the public hearing previously scheduled on the sale of a piece of city property has to be advertised four consecutive weeks before it can be held.
Joe Trenery reported concrete work is expensive, but he has had Precision Concrete look at his project and it will get done. He has also been looking at where to put up the Christmas lights.
Ron Bloomer said they had the first meeting of the fair grounds committee. They had a good turn-out but he would still like more people to get involved. The committee will have its first cleanup on Oct. 24 at the fairgrounds. Also some roofing on the barn blew off during the last wind storm. Bloomer thanked Lane Justice for getting rid of the old wooden bleachers.
Tami Bennett attended the treasurers conference and received a lot of good training. She also thanked the council for the flowers at the time of her father's death.
The new planters have arrived. The council approved a business license for Max McCourt putting up a storage building.
Lou Sansevero spoke to the council about a Shop Emery County 2008 campaign which the Emery County Progress, Emery County Economic Development Council and Emery County are sponsoring to encourage people to shop at home. Prizes are being gathered to draw for in the promotion. They will include a TV, family swim pass for a year and other prizes. Sansevero asked Ferron City if they would donate a golf pass for a year to the promotion.
The council members spoke favorably about the project. They said they would like to offer their support. They suggested the other cities in the county be approached as well. They will place the item on the agenda for their next meeting and approve the request at that time. The drawing will take place right before Christmas.
The council approved the request to fix the fence on the Ralph's property. Fill dirt was placed there for curb and gutter and now the fence needs to be fixed as agreed upon because they want to keep animals in there.
The planning and zoning is still working on revisions and a new form for business licenses. The idea was to approve as many as possible in planning and zoning and only bring those before the council which need additional review. Bloomer will still read a list of any business licenses that have been granted to the council. Any solicitor type businesses need to come into city hall for a permit.
The council talked about the risk management assessment. Work is being done to meet all the items which were pointed out that needed to be fixed. The work at the golf course is almost complete with the exception of the bridges. Behling pointed out the limbs at the cemetery will be cut and the fence on the north side of the cemetery will be completed. A barricade of some sort also needs to be installed where the water comes into the cemetery. The yellow slide at the park was also listed as a safety hazard and the council voted to remove it, because it would cost more than it's worth to fix it. They will look into the cost of a replacement slide.
The council discussed the anti-fraud policy. They determined that the local businesses need an updated list of anyone allowed to charge items to Ferron City. During Peach Days the list might need to be expanded. This list will safeguard the city against anyone claiming to have authority to charge items to the city.
The next Ferron City Council meeting will be on Nov. 13 at 7 p.m.

Alan Marchione, a City of Maricopa Councilman since 2010, resigned Thursday saying that it was not in the best interest of the city for him to "be continually forced to defend" himself.
Marchione submitted his letter of resignation to Mayor Christian Price ending his term in office effective immediately. The circumstances surrounding the resignation and who will replace him were not clear Thursday evening.
Marchione nor City of Maricopa Public Information Officer LaTricia Woods didn't return phone calls seeking comment.
In his letter, Marchione said "while it's difficult for me to step down, there comes a time in a battle when a person must fully evaluate the toll being taken on what is 'really important' in their life."
Marcione's Webpage on Maricopa-az.gov was taken down and his office number didn't work shortly after the resignation letter was received.
Marchione was elected to the City Council in May 2010 and has served on the city's Public Safety Advisory Committee.
He served at the California Department of Corrections in 2002 after an honorable discharge from the United States Marine Corps where he served for five years, according to the city's Webpage before it was taken down.

Mississauga hosts World League Friday and Saturday night
MISSISSAUGA, Ont. (June 13, 2013)- With a 2-2 mark nearly halfway into the FIVB World League season, Canada's head coach Glenn Hoag knows there's not much wiggling room left if his troops want to advance to next month's final round.
Canada's men's volleyball team faces South Korea on Friday and Saturday night at 7 p.m., at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga, its last two home games before hitting the road for Finland and Japan to play its final four preliminary round matches.
Only the top team in pool C advances to the final round. Finland and the Netherlands currently lead the group with 3-1 marks followed by Canada, South Korea and Portugal, all at 2-2. Japan is winless.
Canada's head coach Glenn Hoag has made it clear that he wants two wins this weekend.
"It's important for us to get some victories as we aim to finish first in our pool,'' he said. ''South Korea is technically very gifted, and will be using multiple combinations and zone changes during the matches. They play a very fast, high-level game and the volleyball will be spectacular, but I also know their speed and complexity will test our patience."
The Canadian team is ready to put on a show and veteran player Dan Lewis says Canada needs to capitalize on home court advantage.
''Our Canadian team plays all over the world, and we are very excited to be playing here at the Hershey Centre,'' said Lewis from nearby Oakville. ''This is our home court right now, and as we look into the stands it gives us extra inspiration. Live volleyball at this level is an incredible experience."
Coach Ki-Won Park and his Korean team hope to further their 14th place finish at the 2012 World League, which allowed them to qualify for the 2013 season.
"Canada is a very tall, powerful team, while our strengths are mostly in defense and our combination plays," coach Ki-Won Park said after today's practice. "That is essentially the difference between our two teams. In order to do well in the World League, we are in a must-win situation; I want to leave Canada having won at least one of the two matches over the weekend."
The first weekend of World League competition for the Canadians took place May 31 to June 1 at the Colisée Pepsi, Québec City, versus Netherlands with Canada winning the first match (25-22, 22-25, 27-25, 27-25) and the Netherlands winning the second match (25-22, 25-17, 20-25, 25-23). The second weekend was in Mississauga at the Hershey Centre June 7 and 8 against Portugal with Canada once again splitting the matches, winning (25-19 25-19 25-18) on June 7 and losing (19-25, 25-20, 18-25, 23-25) on June 8.
Friday's game features free tickets for kids under 12 when booked through Ticketmaster.

Basil wins school board race
Union County's second district will have a new representative on the Union County School District board of trustees come next year, after Mickey Basil defeated incumbent Gary Gray in Tuesday's election.
Basil received approximately 51 percent of the votes in the second district with 443 votes, compared to nearly 49 percent for Gray with 407 votes. A total of 36 votes separated the two men, including absentees.
Basil said that when he found out he had won the race, he had relief and exhilaration all at the same time.
"I would like to take this time to thank all of the voters of District Two for the vote they gave me Tuesday," Basil said. "We will work together as a team to make West Union the best school it can be."
He said that he hopes to bring a fresh voice to the table and that he feels the school district needs to focus on implementing new technology in the education system.
"The world is changing and we need to make sure our students are ready," Basil said. "We will need to make sure we continue to perform well on state tests."
Basil said he also plans to work with the other board members to continue building up the district's sports programs.
Gray, who has served on the school board for six years, said he was disappointed in the loss, but that he was grateful for his time serving the school district.
The administration and staff at West Union Attendance Center do an excellent job educating the students in our district and definitely deserve the 'high performing' status they have received," Gray said. "I hope the board continues working hard to ensure our students receive the best education possible. I am still and have always been interested in the education of the young people of Union County."
In other Union County election results, like much of the Mississippi's first Congressional district, local voters overwhelmingly chose to vote for Alan Nunelee as the next representative to the US House of Representatives.
Nunelee received approximately 65 percent of the vote in Union County, with 4,791 votes, while incumbent Travis Childers received half that number, with 2,381. Of the seven independent and third-party candidates that ran for the seat, none received one percent of the vote.
According to Union County's Republican Party Chairman, Childers defeat was part of a message being sent to the federal government.
"Childers just got caught up in this message being sent to Washington," Morris said. "The people are tired of the spending and, really, all the Blue Dog Democrats like Travis were caught up in it."
In the the judicial races, Kelly Mims took 58 percent of the vote for the Court of Appeals seat, compared to Donna Barnes, who received 42 percent.
Barnes, however, won the seat district-wide.
John Gregory and incumbent Robert Elliot won their respective races for Circuit Court judge seats in both the county and district, defeating opponents Tom Levidiotis and Shirley C. Byers respectively.

Jets Sign RFA Eric Tangradi (UPDATE: Cormier signed as well)

GM Kevin Cheveldayoff has finally made a move, avoiding arbitration with Eric Tangradi by signing the RFA to a 2 year contract worth a total of $1.35M. Tangradi made a minor impact on the scoresheet this past season with the Jets, recording just four points in his 370 minutes of ice. Claude Noel preferred to play James Wright on the 3rd line for much of the year, but Tangradi's late combination with Santorelli and Burmistrov showed that Tangradi can affect the game positively, even if the points didn't flow.
Below some thoughts on Tangradi's place in the lineup and instant analysis on the contract itself.
The Contract
I suggested a few days ago that Tangradi was due for a raise on his $726K contract should he go to arbitration. This deal is actually a pay cut for the sizeable left winger, earning him $650K this year, and a further $700K next. The key, of course, is that he got a second year - some much coveted job security for a would-be fourth line skater.
For the Jets, the deal is equally shrewd. The dollar figure is not particularly critical given the team's salary cap status, but a value deal was struck nonetheless. More importantly, the deal leaves Tangradi one year short of UFA status, leaving the Jets in control of his contracting rights should he show improvement over the next two seasons.
The Player

It may seem unlikely that Tangradi outgrows his 4th line assignment during the length of this contract given his scoring totals this past season. Still, his possession and territory numbers give us some context to suggest that he may have been unlucky during what was actually his first full season in the NHL.
Playing on the Jets' fourth line this season was a bit of a death knell. The intended 4th line assignment was with Brent Gretzky-emulators Jim Slater and Chris Thorburn, and with Slater's injury only 14 games after Tangradi arrived, things only got worse. Tangradi did get some playing time with world-beater Olli Jokinen (we know how that must have gone from the boxcars), and with the Antropov/Wellwood combo, where his corsi % took a nose dive. None of that was particularly encouraging.
However, Tangradi ended the year with waiver acquisition Mike Santorelli, and whipping-boy Alex Burmistrov, with whom he managed to push the puck the right way without scoring. Burmi's corsi % improved marginally with Tangradi (51.1% to 52.9%), while Santorelli was lost without him (jumping from 47.6% without Tangradi to 58.2% with him). Overall, Tangradi ended the year with an even corsi % (50.1), a positive relative corsi (1.8), and a positive zone finish differential (+3.6%) against other 4th liners (12th easiest QualComp among forwards). He even drew more penalties than he took, which is remarkable for a 4th liner.
The problem? The puck wouldn't go in the damn net. His on-ice shooting % was just 5.26%, and despite amazing possession play with Santorelli, he never once scored a point while Santorelli was on the ice. His goals-for % plummeted to from a respectable 45% to just 17% when with Burmistrov, as well. He wasn't a scoring threat, exactly, by eye or by numbers, but was due a few more points on the year.
The Bottom Line
He's signed to a reasonable contract for a 4th line player, and with better linemates (Matt Halischuk might fit the bill) and a little more luck, Tangradi could surprise with a 20 point season.
When the Jets acquired him from the Penguins, I suggested much the same - that he looked like a player on the cusp of making a step forward. It didn't happen this season. The Jets have re-signed him at a number and term such that he won't be expected or pushed to move beyond an underwhelming 4th liner. Still, I think the 6'4" AHL scoring winger could still surprise in a Jets jersey.
UPDATE: RFA Patrice Cormier Signs
Cormier - acquired in the trade for the now retired Ilya Kovalchuk - was on the game sheet for 10 games this season after Slater was injured and Spencer Machacek traded. Yet Cormier played fewer than 39 minutes of total ice time in the NHL this season, to bring his total to just shy of 300 minutes over three seasons. He's young, but remains an ineffective NHL player on a struggling, non-playoff team, and has yet to earn the trust of coach Claude Noel. His AHL numbers also don't suggest much hope that Cormier becomes an NHL regular before his UFA years, either. There is always the hope that he becomes a bottom-six player with time, but for now, this is a depth signing for the Ice Caps' Top-9. Terms were not released.
July 17 2013, 11:01PM
Tangradi and Cormier are physical and young players. Good for the playoffs and/or young/small centres. Ideally they would bookend Scheifele or Wellwood or the 2013 2nd rounder (Petan?). Ideally you get them as cheap or near $1M/yr until they are 27-29 and washed up. NFL has a flaw in that the smaller football is too easy to catch. The throws become to the edges of the field rather than yac yards. The CFL football and longer field places more emphasis on special-teamish play after the catch. This also challenges coaches more. Baseball could do with a ball that is harder to hit homers and throw from the outfield. More relays and more infield plays. The NFL football tends to drift to one side on long spirals; maybe one or two metres to one side on a bomb. It would be nice if the baseball naturally did this to one side to make fielding a pop-up tougher. Probably the dimensions of the ball would need to be slightly oval or pear-shaped. I would try to sign all the younger Jets for long cheap contracts; there is enough talent there. Then instead of the two yr Jokinen contracts: one year Semin-type contracts. It looks like we miss out on Hainsey and a cup run because the owner wouldn't take the Jokinen buyout. The next two years are the last chance to get Ladd and Buff in their prime and relatively cheap, but there is a big pipeline of league scoring leaders. It is all about affording their contracts over the long haul.

Education in the School of Humanities and Sciences prepares students for life in a rapidly changing, multicultural, and globally inclusive world. Liberal arts programs of study are designed so that students develop intellectual flexibility, critical literacies, and the ability to integrate learning and socially responsible action. Academic programs within the school also prepare students for successful careers in the professions, public service, teaching, business and industry, theatre, and the fine arts. The bachelor of arts, bachelor of science, and bachelor of fine arts degree programs are excellent preparation for professional and graduate study.
Opportunities within the School of Humanities and Sciences are many. Through formal courses and field studies students develop an understanding and appreciation of the historical antecedents of current social problems and engage in direct study of current social issues. In the science laboratory, on the stage, or in independent study and research, students put theory into practice. Emphasis is also placed on developing an understanding of personal and human values as reflected in literature, history, art, and philosophy.
In summary, the goal of the School of Humanities and Sciences is liberal education that encourages students to seek facts, approach problems rationally, and respond logically, sensitively, and creatively to themselves and others and to the world around them.
The School of Humanities and Sciences strives to advance the study and practice of the liberal arts as the dynamic core of our comprehensive college. We foster creative expression and critical thinking, support collaboration among disciplines and between faculty and students, and integrate scholastic excellence, disciplinary training, and civic engagement.
The School of Humanities and Sciences promotes the reasoned exchange and responsible application of disciplinary knowledge within a global society. Recognizing the endurance and relevance of the liberal arts, our diverse academic programs integrate theory and practice to address the emerging demands of our changing world. As scholars, artists, and mentors, our faculty provide an immersive learning environment grounded in dialogue and collaboration and cultivating in students the critical thinking and personal integrity necessary for academic, professional, and civic life.
Because experience tempers knowledge, we encourage our students to learn both inside and outside the classroom. In addition to disciplinary instruction and practice, we offer pedagogically meaningful curricular and co-curricular activities, such as community-based learning initiatives and professional internships. These activities embody our belief that the arts and sciences belong to and serve the greater community and that self-reflection and intellectual advancement should lead to concrete actions that benefit humanity.
Knowledge put into practice generates informed citizenship, global awareness, and social investment. The School of Humanities and Sciences prepares students to lead productive and fulfilled lives while working toward a just and sustainable world.

Now that the dust has settled in the south, we thought it was only right to hand out praise to the stars of Super Rugby, Round 13
Now that the dust has settled in the southern hemisphere, we thought it was only right to hand out praise to the stars of Super Rugby, Round 13
Feel free to give us your 15-1 selections below!
Super Rugby Team of Round 13:
15 Andre Taylor (Hurricanes): Impressed in the Canes' win over the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein. Taylor scored a try and gained 146 metres on attack, with six defenders beaten. Gets in ahead of Israel Folau, who gave another polished display in the Waratahs' win over the Stormers.
14 Frank Halai (Blues): Scored a first-half hat-trick in the Blues' win over the Rebels and always looked dangerous with ball in hand. Apart from his try-scoring heroics, he also won 100 metres on attack with four defenders beaten. Reds speedster Rod Davies also shone with two well-taken tries against the Sharks.
13 Rene Ranger (Blues): He edges out his direct opponent from this round – Rebels centre Mitch Inman, who scored a brace of tries – but the All Black deserves his spot as he was once again a threat on attack throughout. His offload in the build-up to Francis Saili's try was reminiscent of Sonny Bill Williams at his best. Ranger also got in for a deserved try.
12 Anthony Faingaa (Reds): Scored a try and did well in the playmaker role against the Sharks. Also impressed on defence with 10 tackles made. Francis Saili of the Blues also impressed against the Rebels.
11 Hosea Gear (Highlanders): Scored a try and made 70 metres on attack in the loss to the Kings. Gear crossed the advantage line at will which is no mean feat against the Kings whose defence was back to its best after last week's horror show against the Waratahs. Force speedster Rory Dellit is unlucky to miss out after scoring two tries in his side's narrow loss to the Chiefs.
10 Beauden Barrett (Hurricanes): His performance played a huge part in the Hurricanes' win over the Cheetahs. Scored 24 of his side's 39 points via a try, five penalties and two conversions and pips Reds pivot Quade Cooper whose creativity played a big role in the his side's win over the Sharks.
9 Will Genia (Reds): So much of the Reds' success is down to him and he showed against the Sharks why he is widely regarded as the world's best scrum-half. Was the spark that lit the Queenslanders' attacks and his perfectly-weighted grubber kick which led to Rod Davies' first try will live on long in the memories of Reds supporters.
8 Scott Higginbotham (Rebels): It was difficult to choose between Higginbotham and the Kings' Cornell du Preez, who was outstanding against the Highlanders. But in the end, Higginbotham gets the nod for leading from the front in the Rebels' narrow defeat to the Blues. Scored a try for his efforts and did well on defence.
7 Luke Watson (Kings): Gave easily his best performance of the season and was rewarded with two tries for his effort. As captain, Watson marshalled his troops well and also put his body on the line with 12 tackles. Sam Cane also caught the eye in the Chiefs' win over the Western Force.
6 Ed Quirk (Reds): Got through plenty of hard graft in his side's win against the Sharks. Quirk cleaned out the rucks with great intensity and made a big impact on defence with 13 tackles. Dave Dennis also did well for the Waratahs.
5 Andries Bekker (Stormers): Was immense in the tight exchanges for the Stormers in their defeat to the Waratahs. Bekker made 14 tackles and, as usual, was the visitors' go-to man at the line-outs, winning seven balls. He keeps out Chiefs second-rower Brodie Retallick, who had a good game against the Force.
4 Jeremy Thrush (Hurricanes): Won the man-of-the-match award in his side's win over the Cheetahs after a solid all-round display. Did his basics well and even won a couple of turnovers which proved crucial in the end. He gets in a head of Stormers enforcer, Eben Etzebeth and his Waratahs counterpart Sitaleki Timani, whose duel was one of the highlights of their clash in Sydney.
3 Ben Afeaki (Chiefs): Another strong scrummaging performance from Afeaki was one of the Chiefs' biggest plus points in a close win over the Force.
2 Bandise Maku (Kings): Was used mostly as a battering ram but did it with great effect. This created gaps which team-mates like Watson and Du Preez exploited and resulted in the back-rowers scoring three of the Kings' four tries between them. Maku edges out Tatafu Polota-Nau, who impressed – especially in the tight exchanges – for the 'Tahs.
1 Coenie Oosthuizen (Cheetahs): Was back to his rampaging best against the Hurricanes. Oosthuizen stood his ground in the scrums but was fearless on attack, scoring two tries in the process.

What the hell? Are you people reading my mind and stealing my thoughts? I swear to Lord Jashiin that I thought about this very same thread like a month ago. Meh, I going off to rant somewhere else...
I will surpass afro thunda!
Question: Is the Kage no Bushin that naruto uses the same as Kakashi's lighting based bushin?
like learning things from a safe distance.
Remember Zabuza's water clones? They were supposed to be a fraction of the strength of the original according to Haku. Is this down to the amount of chakra used to create them. Possible but we don't know for sure. Based on this throwaway conversation I suppose it could be assumed that clones created from elements would require less chakra than a shadow clone that requires an equal share depending on the number created.
That being said Kakashi reckoned he used half his remaining chakra at the time to make that lightening clone which would make a nonsense of what I've already said.

Tom Croft will captain Leicester Tigers in the Aviva Premiership fixture against Sale Sharks at Welford Road this Saturday.
Tom Croft will captain Leicester Tigers in the Aviva Premiership fixture against Sale Sharks at Welford Road this Saturday.
Back-rower Croft has made a successful return after a neck injury in recent weeks and makes his 100th starting appearance for the club this weekend.
Mathew Tait and Niall Morris return to the backline for Saturday – Leicester's only home fixture during March – while Thomas Waldrom returns from the England squad to take the Tigers No8 shirt.
"We've had disappointing results in the last two weeks but in terms of performance we've done some good things," said Leicester boss Richard Cockerill.
"There are still six games remaining so there is a lot of rugby to be played yet and a lot of points still up for grabs. We keep a positive frame of mind and just keep battling away."
Tigers are without six players retained by England this weekend, while Anthony Allen, Miles Benjamin, Martin Castrogiovanni, Louis Deacon, Geordan Murphy and Boris Stankovich are unavailable due to injury.
Meanwhile, Sale Sharks travel to Welford Road tomorrow to play Leicester Tigers hoping to bounce back following the 21-30 defeat at home to Harlequins last Friday.
The Sharks have won their last two away games in all competitions but have not won three in a row on the road in the same season since October 2006.
Scrum-half Will Cliff signed a new deal at the club earlier in the week but is unavailable tomorrow due to an injury picked up in a freak training ground incident.
"Will's had his best season at the club and he's done really well for us. He took an unfortunate knock in training but he's a local lad who never lets the team down and the fact he signed a new deal is brilliant for us," said Sale boss Steve Diamond.
Form: Leicester have lost their last two Premiership matches at the hands of league-leaders Harlequins and more surprisingly at home to play-off rivals Saracens last time out, with the London side returning home with 32-27 win. That run has seen Leicester slip to third in the table, just four points clear of fifth-placed London Wasps with the possibility of failing to make the play-offs now an outside possibility for the nine-time Premiership champions. This weekend they welcome bottom-club Sale, who will arrive in good shape having won four of their last five in all competitions.
The teams:
Leicester Tigers: 15 Mathew Tait, 14 Niall Morris, 13 Matt Smith, 12 Dan Bowden, 11 Adam Thompstone, 10 George Ford, 9 Sam Harrison, 8 Thomas Waldrom, 7 Julian Salvi, 6 Tom Croft (c), 5 Graham Kitchener, 4 Ed Slater, 3 Logovi'i Mulipola, 2 Rob Hawkins, 1 Marcos Ayerza.
Replacements: 16 George Chuter, 17 Kieran Brookes, 18 Fraser Balmain, 19 Brett Deacon, 20 Jordan Crane, 21 Micky Young, 22 Matt Cornwell, 23 Scott Hamilton.
Sale Sharks: 15 Cameron Shepherd, 14 Tom Brady, 13 Jonny Leota, 12 Sammy Tuitupou, 11 Will Addison, 10 Nick Maclod, 9 Cillian Willis, 8 Richie Vernon, 7 David Seymour (c), 6 Dan Braid, 5 Fraser McKenzie, 4 James Gaskell, 3 Henry Thomas, 2 Marc Jones, 1 Ross Harrison.
Replacements: 16 Tommy Taylor, 17 Al Dickinson, 18 Tony Buckley, 19 Richie Gray, 20 Andy Powell, 21 Nathan Fowles, 22 Danny Cipriani, 23 Jordan Davies.

I just tried the Mountain House freeze dried cottage cheese and I'm in love. You heard me correctly. Mountain House freeze dries cottage cheese! It's pretty impressive.
In the past, dehydrated and freeze dried milk products have gotten a bad rap. (Except Emergency Essentials' dehydrated milk products, of course. They get rave reviews.) So I set the bar really low for what I thought would be some freeze dried cottage cheese malarkey.
It's no malarkey folks! Freeze dried cottage cheese is… well, good!
It's easy to get excited about this Mountain House product. When the freeze dried cottage cheese is rehydrated it looks like cottage cheese (not some pulpy mess) and it feels like cottage cheese (not a glop of white stuff).
The texture and flavor are both spot on. Individual curds stand on their own and are firm and chewy, just like curds ought to be. The saltiness of cottage cheese comes through, too. I followed the instructions on the can; after 15 minutes I added a little more water because I like a little more liquid in my cottage cheese.
You might not have considered adding cottage cheese to your food storage because it seems like such a luxury item, but now you can! Plus, if you buy 6 or more cans of this freeze dried Mountain House food storage you'll get 25% off your purchase (sale ends today).
Little Miss Muffet couldn't be more pleased than I am. Now, if only I could find a tuffet to sit on…
~ Steph
Here are 10 ways to eat your freeze dried cottage cheese:
1. Plain
2. With fruit
3. Add herbs or seasonings and eat with crackers.
4. Add to salad dressing
5. Add to an omelet
6. Mix into smoothies for a protein boost (with fruit!).
7 & 8. Pair it with Pasta
- a. Stuff pasta shells – use your long and short term food storage! Mix with tomato powder, pasta shells, and cottage cheese.
- Toss with spaghetti, onions or garlic, and pepper.
9. Make a vegetarian taco (thanks for the idea www.Daisy.com) – Mix cottage cheese with pico de gallo, add avocado, and eat in a warm corn or flour tortilla.
10. Use in a dessert. Layer it with granola and berries to make a parfait.

Everyone is welcome to browse and shop here at outlet prices, but you must Register, Qualify & Sign in to see and buy at wholesale prices. Volume discounts are also available to all buyers.
Product Sample Packages
Our Plan is Better than free samples !
Nobody really gives free samples since they build the cost of samples into their product prices. The more free samples a company gives to people who never end up buying, the higher their product prices will have to be.
Under our simple plan you can actually save money by buying the samples you need for informed decision making. Here is how it works. Buy the samples you would like to evaluate and use. We will flag your account to receive a 10% discount on any purchases you make within a number of days equal to the number of dollars you paid for samples.
A simple example could be that you buy $30 of moulding samples. During the next 30 days you buy oil paintings, frames, or framing materials costing $500. In this case you would get $50 in discounts which is actually more than you paid for the samples. Spend $15 on samples and get 15 days of 10% discounts or spend $200 on samples and get 200 days of 10% discounts.
This plan results in the people who actually buy from us receiving the money we save by not giving samples to anyone who would receive free samples without making a purchase. The following sample packges cost less than individual samples and provide discounts on future purchases.

To do this, you will need to show them proof of duty paid and proof of export (such as certificate of posting) when claiming your refund.
