Skip to comments.Rural kids, parents angry about Labor Dept. rule banning farm chores
Posted on 04/25/2012 6:07:51 AM PDT by yoe
A proposal from the Obama administration to prevent children from doing farm chores has drawn plenty of criticism from rural-district members of Congress. But now its attracting barbs from farm kids themselves.
The Department of Labor is poised to put the finishing touches on a rule that would apply child-labor laws to children working on family farms, prohibiting them from performing a list of jobs on their own families land.
Under the rules, children under 18 could no longer work in the storing, marketing and transporting of farm product raw materials.
Prohibited places of employment, a Department press release read, would include country grain elevators, grain bins, silos, feed lots, stockyards, livestock exchanges and livestock auctions.
The new regulations,(first proposed) August 31 by Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, would also revoke the governments approval of safety training and certification taught by independent groups like 4-H and FFA, replacing them instead with a 90-hour federal government training course.
Rossie Blinson, a 21-year-old college student from Buis Creek, N.C., told The Daily Caller that the federal governments plan will do far more harm than good.
The main concern I have is that it would prevent kids from doing 4-H and FFA projects if theyre not at their parents house, said Blinson.
This is an illegal immigrant jobs bill. The farm work must be done by someone.
Already, in this area, there are no "teen" jobs, they are all taken by illegals.
This bill extends that into food production.
who's gonna de-tassle corn?
Yet the same federal government and Congress will lament the demise of the family farm and think up new subsidies to protect farming from corporate interests.
Is this something that can be voted down?
I know folks want to reduce this to a matter of the marxist in chief's chitown politics, but it is bigger than that. It is another brick in the police state wall that has been put up around us with nary a peep.
Molon labe on this one. What will they do, come onto the family farms and arrest kids? Let 'em come!
Don't be silly. The Department of Labor will simply declare that corn doesn't need to be de-tassled.
Ignore this rule and let the Dept of Labor attempt to enforce it.
How about a state sponsered Youth Program, to teach them Morals and Fortitude (you know because their parents can't), Boys could be in the Deutsches Jungvolk, while the girls' could be Bund Deutscher Mädel.
Sound Good to Me!
Show of hands...how many people think these rules are going to be ignored, and that at some point a County Sheriff is going to become involved; depending on their politics either with or against the farm owner?
I am of the firm belief that County Sheriff's are one of the last lines of defense against the rampant Federalism that is overtaking our country. Men like Joe Arapio, and countless others, are the ones who will be/are on the front line acting as a defender/trip wire in the coming battle.
> What will they do, come onto the family farms and arrest
> kids? Let em come!
No, they will arrest the parents and fine them into penury so they have to work menial jobs in the city.
If you resist, they will kill you.
Just another step in their plan to cut people off from producing their own food.
If they control the food supply (that is, the 'means of production' for food), then very few people can control many.
Get hybrid seeds.
Learn how to start them.
Learn how to plant them.
Learn how to grow them.
Learn how to harvest the seeds to plant the following season.
Aquaponics, baby.
Oh, goody, now rural folks can raise lazy, good for nothing, video game playing little miscreants just like city folk do!
And there will be less competition for the illegal aliens.
I think the abunch of government morons are eager for a civil war.
I started operating my father farm tractor when I was 12 years old
So some Policy Wonk in size five black wings tips is going to show the 4-H club how it's done?!
I wonder what Willie Nelson, John Cougar Mellencamp and all of their Farm Aid cohorts have to say about this?
On second thought, I think I know...
> So some Policy Wonk in size five black wings tips is going
> to show the 4-H club how its done?!
Look for the metrosexual queens to try to modify the focus and compass of 4-H in the coming years.
Remember, these fairies have jack-booted thugs from Treasury Dept. to do their bidding.
We have a small farm where our kids work, too. We will not comply. Neither will our neighbors. None of us will rat out any of the others.
If the fairies come with their thugs, it's a signal to me that America is fallen, and we need to seek another home.
I actually find this a bit frightening because in prior years, even the most liberal Democrat administration was still afraid to take on the farmers.
This one seems to have no fear whatsoever.
Yes, either that, or they just want to put the rest of the family farmers out of business permanently, and damage our economy in the process. Whatever their goal is, these negative consequences are not unintentional, the commie bastards know exactly what they are doing.
Yeah, that'll help bring food prices down....
America has no room for her kind. Ship her out. Purge her.
What about having kids running around as community organizers.
We saw this in "1984" - family relationships were banned. Your loyalty is to only be to the state. A very Satanic state of affairs, that.
Family farms are the epitome of what the left hates - strong families, strong character, work ethic, and independence.
This is the very same federal government that is telling the Supreme Court today that States cannot assist the federal government in the enforcement of illegal alien laws.
I"D suggest its time to crank up the dozers and start prepping the slit trenches. They're coming for you if you live on a farm.
Yes, it can be voted down. We have to vote Obama out of office (even if that means voting Romney into office). We have to vote to turn control of the Senate over to someone better than Harry Reid (yes, even Mitch McConnell would be much better). We need to vote to keep Republicans in charge of the House (yes, even if Boehner is Speaker). Many conservatives seem to forget that there are worse things in life than RINOs.
And we also could be looking at filling a spot on the Supreme Court
"Look for the metrosexual queens to try to modify the focus and compass of 4-H in the coming years."
It's already happening, lots of USDA cash that was for 4H is going for "harm reduction" and "youth at risk" programs.
You need non-hybrid seeds.
I envision a farmers march on D.C. complete with tractors, rakes, hoes and other farm equipment.
As President Jefferson Davis so prophetically said just prior to the War Between the States: "We just want to be left alone."
Furthermore, I can't even imagine the good Amish farmers paying any attention to this edict.
I am waiting for the day when a brave County Sheriff comes out and says, "The federal government has overstepped its bounds and is acting in an un-Constitutional manner. Agents from Such-And-Such federal agency will be arrested and escorted out of my county if they attempt to enforce Such-And-Such law."
My husband's first job in high school was recording weights of trucks freshly loaded with hay cubes, for the family agricultural trucking business. That would not be permitted any more, I guess.
Be careful what you say, the anti-Romney bots will come out of the wood work and pillory you for speaking such heresy on FR. They are everywhere and they are the guardians of all that is conservative; even if it means letting obama and his czars remain in control.
In just a matter of a few years there will be a huge increase in the number of injuries and deaths on the job.
Nothing is more dangerous on the job than an 18 yo kid that has never worked a day in their life at anything with any kind of risk.
They have no concept of danger and will put themselves in a position where they can get hurt or killed, and have no thought about it.
They also get other people hurt or killed because they have no concept of the risk involved with the job.
Remember who really got Elian Gonzalez returned to Cuba. It was Archer Daniels Midland.
This will run the Amish out of the country.
I started driving the tractor to plwo and cultivate at about ten. at 12 I was in the barn hanging tobacco and spearing it. at 14 I was hiring out to other farmers after we had harvested our own crop.
Do kids get hurt? Occasionally.
But they learn good work habits, They gain strength, and they don't need to go to the gym most important they are with their dad.(God I wish I could be with him doing that again.)
They are much better off than joining a drug gamg in the city.
We had plenty of time to play after the work was done and we got hurt more often on the playing field than on the farm.
This is The Onion, right?
Well said.
The family farm is the last place children are ALLOWED to learn non-union work habits,therefore it must be destroyed.
Neither big labor ,big agribusiness,nor big government want independent people.
The child labor laws are at least as much about preserving union jobs as they are about protecting children from exploitation.

It is a further attack on agrarian religious organizations like the Anabaptists, Amish, Mennonites, etc... (bible clingers).
These kids are stealing jobs that could be held by good hard working UNION employees. We need to organize the Family farm so that Obama's UNION supportors can have good paying jobs and put the family farm out of business. Ya that is the OBUMMER way.

Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies
Laurier PhD student discusses water research in the Arctic at THEMUSEUM
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Oct 17/13| For Immediate Release
Brent Wolfe, Professor
Michael Bittle, Communications Coordinator
WATERLOO A helicopter circles a lake in Wapusk National Park, southeast of Churchill, Manitoba. The helicopter lands and Hilary White, a Laurier PhD student in geography, exits the cabin, enters the waist-high water and quickly runs a battery of hydrological tests while the rotor blades whirl overhead. The helicopter stops only long enough for White to gather the water and sediment samples and then it is off to the next lake.
On Oct. 20, White will showcase this research in her public talk, Water research in the Arctic: looking into the past, present, and future, as part of the Water Dialogues series complementing THEMUSEUMs fall exhibition, Surface Tension.
White makes the trip to northern Manitoba three times a year to take samples from approximately 40 lakes to measure the impact of climate change on the lakes.
One of the most striking observations that we have made is that several of these lakes have dried up in the summer during recent years, said White. This may be due to climate change less snowmelt and more evaporation, which may be having a significant impact on this freshwater landscape.
Analysis of sediment cores from these lakes will help us determine if the drying of lakes has happened before or if this is a unique consequence of recent climate warming.
The regions hydrological fate under conditions of continued warming is uncertain. Identifying the impact of climate change can assist in making informed decisions on the management of water resources.
The Hudson Bay Lowlands contain thousands of shallow lakes that have rich stores of carbon and provide important wildlife habitat, said Brent Wolfe, professor, Geography and Environmental Studies and Whites doctoral supervisor. Hilary's research on their present and past hydrological conditions will provide insight into how the lakes are responding to climate change and what we can expect for the future.
Whites Water Dialogues talk will highlight the research of Wolfes lab group. For the past 10 years, Wolfe and his students have been working across the Arctic Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories, northern Alberta, northern Manitoba, and northern Quebec to better understand how climate change has been affecting lake-rich landscapes.
Whites research is supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, the Polar Continental Shelf Program, the Northern Scientific Training Program and the Churchill Northern Studies Centre Northern Research Fund.
Water Dialogues, presented by Laurier, educates and inspires conversation around the subject of water. Discussion topics range from the steps Waterloo Region is taking to conserve drinking water to water scarcity around the world. For more information, visit www.themuseum.ca/water-dialogues and www.wlu.ca/research/water.

- About Plattsburgh
Come visit my office and you'll see a phenomenon that was once called "a cabinet of curiosities." Call it "clutter" or call it "culture," it's the makings of a museum. Yet, I do believe that everything, including me, has some purpose in life. That's why I study, teach, and write about the preservation and interpretation of old buildings, ships, curios, and "historic" places.
For the last twenty years I've been floating in maritime history. As I research and write more about America's maritime heritage and its preservation, my courses on "US Historic Sites," "US History Museums," and "Historic Preservation" have all changed course too. Three books will be launched in this project. Preserving South Street Seaport: The Dream and Reality of a New York Urban Renewal District was published by NYU Press in spring 2014. In its wake, a second book will be a collection of my essays on the origins and development of the nation's major maritime museums. That's titled "Preserving Maritime America: Public Culture and Memory in the Making of the Nation's Great Marine Museums." After that's published, I'll be able to complete (what's tentatively titled) "Making San Francisco Seaworthy: How a Decrepit Waterfront Became a National Park." Google me to see when I reach my home port, or if I've been lost at sea!

Black Hawk Statue at Lowden State Park
At Eagle's Nest Bluff in Lowden State Park, proudly stands a 48-foot statue of a Native American quietly revering the beauty of the River Rock Valley below. Commonly called Black Hawk, after the legendary Chieftain, the statue was created as a tribute to all the Native Americans who once called the area their home.
Castle Rock State Park is located three miles south of Oregon on Highway 2. The 2,000-acre park includes rock formations, ravines, and unique northern plant associations. In one valley, 27 different types of ferns have been identified. A sandstone bluff, adjacent to the river, has given the park its name. Picnic area amenities include tables, shelters, grills, toilets, drinking water and playground equipment. Six miles of marked hiking trails have been developed, and a public boat ramp/parking facility is located across from the park's main entrance.
One of the most picturesque sites along the Rock River is just north of Oregon in Ogle County. The bluffs are graced with a majestic image of an American Indian gazing over the Rock River Valley. This is no ordinary statue. It is a 50 foot, concrete-reinforced wonder that is awe-inspiring. A tribute to all Native Americans, but more commonly associated with Chief Black Hawk, the statue was designed by sculptor Lorado Taft. You can enjoy many wonderful views of the Rock River from the park, but the best view of the statue is from IL Rt. 2.

CITY:Rock Falls
Nestled in the Rock River Valley, just 3 miles south of the town of Oregon, lies a 2,291-acre wooded area that is one of Ogle County's most beautiful and historic sites. Its scenic qualities come from 120-foot bluffs along 3.5 miles of riverfront forested with hardwood and pine trees. The history stems from the individual who, in the early part of the 20th century, augmented the natural hardwood forest by planting pines. Frank O. Lowden (1861-1943), Illinois' governor from 1917-1921, ardently embraced proper land use and strongly believed in reforestation as a way to retard soil erosion. Over several decades, an estimated 500,000 trees were seeded directly by him or under his supervision.
This multi-use 17 mile recreational trail offers beautiful scenery and 21 decked bridges, including a covered bridge in Orangeville, passing wetlands, creeks, woods, prairies, geologic formations and farmland. The trail, named after Jane Addams, is part of the Grand Illinois Trail which traverses northern Illinois from Lake Michigan to the Mississippi River. Its crushed limestone surface may be used by hikers, bicyclists, snowmobilers, and cross-country skiers. The The tow miles of trail between the Wes Block Trail Access and Illinois 26 is an asphalt paved surface. The final two mile asphalt paved segment from Highway 26 to the Tutty's Crossing Trailhead on the riverfront in historic downtown Freeport will open in summer 2015. This segment crosses the 1885 Van Buren Street Bridge to the Old River School Historic District, the original north entryway into the City, and through historic downtown Freeport offering specialty shops, restaurants, a bicycle shop offering repairs, and more. At Tutty's Crossing, the Jane Addams Trail connects with the Pecatonica Prairie Trail currently under development between Freeport and Rockford. The Jane Addams Trail connects the Wisconsin state line to the Badger Trail which extends to Madison. Access to the trail is available at the West Block Access, 2636 W. Fairview Road, Freeport, at the Richland Creek Trailhead, 101 N. Ewing Street, Orangeville, at Cedarville Road, at Red Oak off of Beaver Road, and by mid-summer at Turry's Crossing in downtown Freeport. Trail Maps are available.

The Freeport Club enjoys a reputation as one of the finest golf courses in Northern Illinois.

The natural rolling terrain, elevation changes, and small-fast greens create a unique playing experience that will test golfers of all skill levels. Condition and playability is the top priority. In addition to maintaining the beauty of the course, the staff works to create some of the best putting surfaces in the area. A fully equipped "Golf Shop" is available to meet your equipment, clothing, and instructional needs. The Freeport Club's PGA Professional plans and coordinates a full-season of men's, ladies, singles, couples, social golf, and competitive tournaments plus a junior golf program that targets youth up to the age of 16.

Welcome to Lake Carroll Golf Course, your number one option for a round of golf in Lanark, Illinois. We are truly one of the Midwest's great hidden golf gems, as well as the finest ocourse in Northwestern Illinois. We are located a peaceful and scenic drive away from Cedar Rapids, Rockford, and the Chicagoland area. You will love the high quality of great golf you find here at Lake Carroll Golf Course!
The original nine holes date back to 1913, offering beautiful views of the Rock River. The design is a 2700 yard, par 34 with lots of trees and small greens. The back nine, built in the late 60's, is a 3200 yard track par 36, with large greens and sand traps. Adding to the challenge is the Holland creek running through it, coming into play on seven of the nine holes.
CITY:Rock Falls
Established in 1915, Timber Creek is not the 'run of the mill' golf course. With gentle rolling fairways, it was designed to give the golfer ample room off the tee while giving the player a challenge of a lie that may be slightly uphill or downhill. The closer you get to our bent grass greens, you will find sand traps placed by the architect in places that add to the overall character of the course. With new sand, you will find it as accommodating as one could. Our greens at Timber Creek were designed for game improvement and the scratch golfer alike.

She uses her wings to form the wall though. I think the wings and molding the wall are related somehow.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
its ok for Sanji to have high fighting spirit, but he's forgot that his own body is injured pretty bad when Nami in his body..
as i can see here, Sanji had to shifted away Vergo first strike to the other direction just when he made contact with Vergo's leg and feel his bone got cracked so his leg doesn't completely broken, its different from before that Sanji can completely block attack with his leg without shift away the attack direction, and he evade the second strike from Vergo left leg - the same leg from first strike, as for fast-paced-kick-fight there Sanji using his left leg maybe to preserved his right leg from bad to worst..
it will be funny if Zoro come to rescue Sanji though i doubt Zoro will come, he rather have some ale n sleep lol
^^as for aggeroff theory about Vergo ability, its a good one there to combine tekkai n CoA altogether as CoA buff up tekkai ability..
Vergo's ability is definetly CoA + Tekkai. I mean don't forget, Vergo can actually create armour out of his CoA, much like Luffy can. There's nothing to show that he hadn't coated his leg under those pants.
True his hardening ability is likely CoA, BUT it could also be a DF ability OR as I am curious about, the sheer level of his Tekkai. What if his Tekkai is so dense that it can visibly be seen in much the same way CoA is?
well we know he can use CoA because he used it on his cane or what ever that thing was. but i think his over all level of ability is probably pretty hax to begen with any way. i mean we know he can probably can mix them but presumably he survived sanjis attack with just a tekki, when old sanji could break a tekki, so its believable to me that his abilities are that good. but, im sure he could also mix them if he chose to as well. plus we did see something trailing his leg when sanji dodged his second strike. and there were spark like things coming from the blows.

Patent Models: Textile and Sewing Machines
For much of the nineteenth century, inventors submitted a model with their patent application to the United States Patent Office. The National Museum of American History's patent model collection began with the acquisition of 284 models from the Patent Office in June 1908, and reached more than 1,000 models by the end of that summer. In 1926, Congress decided to dispense with the stored collection of models and gave the Smithsonian Institution the opportunity to collect any models it wanted. Today, the Museum's collection exceeds 10,000 patent models dating from 1836 to 1910.
The Museum's Textile Collection contains over four thousand patent models. The collection includes many examples of carding machines, spinning machines, knitting machines, rope making machines, looms, baskets, carpets, fabrics, and sewing machines. Even the simple clothespin is well represented, with 41 patent models.
This sampling of patent models from the Textile Collection describes the two major groupings, textile machinery and sewing machines. In both groups, the examination of the models begins with the earliest of the inventions. In this early group of patent models, the textile machinery models date from 1837 to 1840, and the sewing machine models from 1842 to 1854.
For more information about the Museum's patent model collection, see Patent Model Index, Guide to the Collections of the National Museum of American History.

1840 Baldwin's Patent Model of a Loom Shuttle
- Description
- Loom Shuttle Patent Model
- Patent No. 1,485, issued on January 31, 1840
- James Baldwin of Nashua, New Hampshire
- Baldwin's patent consisted of a steel spring and catch made in one piece that fits inside the wooden bobbin. In his patent specification, he claimed this avoided the expense of separate catches and springs that were in the common shuttle as then in use. The arrangement and construction of the spring and catch were such that pushing the bobbin down on the spindle and into the mouth of the shuttle secured the bobbin on the catch. By pulling up on the bobbin, the head of the spindle pushed down on the spring, which in turn disengaged the catch and released the bobbin. These improvements make it easier for the bobbin changer to replenish the shuttle with thread.
- An earlier notice of Baldwin's loom shuttle appears in the Journal of the American Institute. In 1838, at the eleventh Annual Fair of the American Institute, James and E. Baldwin were awarded a diploma for an improved loom shuttle. On May 3, 1859, James Baldwin was successful in having the shuttle awarded Reissue Patent No. 710.

1837 Hartford and Tilton's Patent Model of a Loom Heddle
- Description
- Loom Heddles and Harness Patent Model
- Patent No. 544, issued December 29, 1837
- Benjamin Hartford and William B. Tilton of Enfield, New Hampshire
- Hartford and Tilton improved upon the construction of heddles (the mechanisms that raise and lower warp threads) by using strips of rolled flat metal with an eye punched through the middle of each strip to allow for the passage of warp yarns. Heddles were commonly constructed of cord. The replacement of metal for cord produced a more durable heddle. These one-piece metallic strips and the construction of the heddle frame were the basis of their patent. The heddles slid on two rods and were attached to adjustable clasps, permitting the heddles to correspond to the part of the reed (a comb-like device used to space the warp yarns evenly) that was in operation.

Seriously? No one is going to say "mob"? It's an abbreviation for mobile object, and no MMO has been object oriented design like MUDs where the term originates. They can be "monster", "NPC", or whatever else you want, but they are not and have never been "mob".
MMOs are a 3-D graphical front end for a database. Poke at Wikipedia for "object oriented design" and "MUD" and the difference should be apparent.
I was fond of 'critturs'. Mobs always sounded like they should be robots. :shrug:
"Exterminate!" Early 8-bit game training, I guess.
Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow.
QFT, ERP, and then people who make fun of stuff like 9/11 or mass school shootings, etc.
I have a few:
'WoW Clone' -used when said person doesn't like a themepark style game but feels the need to enter a discussion without any knowledge of the the game their critising
'Dynamic'- used to defend a static game event or feature, because said defender has bought into a developers marketing.
'Content'- I hate this term alround, it doesn't mean anything in the abstract:
'Oh this game has so much content!',
'This game has so little content!'
What does it mean exactly? It has lots of stuff/or not basically. Having lots of something doesn't make it really a confirmation of a fun game experience, or of how the systems within the game work. It just a definition of volume and doesn't justify being used so much to define a games worth.
This looks like a job for....The Riviera Kid!

It doesn't help that it's broadly misused both here and elsewhere, applied to anyone who has a complaint, request, or desire. (Nevermind that innovation, discovery, freedom, and change of all kind most often results from wanting something beyond what one currently has). It's just as provocative and dismissive as "fanboi" and "hater", a way for cranky gamers to wave away the other side's points without actually engaging in a discussion. My grandparents' generation called my parents' generation selfish, my parents called my generation lazy and my generation calls my kids' generation entitled. Wonder what the next generalized putdown will be.
If you say anything negative about a game now you're either a 'hater' or feeling 'entitled'.
In game the word that bothers me most is when other players call everyone "noob"
On forums I think f2p, p2p, b2p, and p2w
"U Mad"
"U Jelly"
"Lag" when referring to framerate issues.
"MMO" to describe games where the only thing massive is the chat room and/or town hub before you enter instanced play areas.
"Rouge" and "Solider", among other misspellings.
Everything else doesn't bother me, but this damn word just makes me want to smash my head into my keyboard everytime I see it used. I get everything else, gank, noob, raped, u mad? and countless others. They all at least make sense. How plox even came to be popular boggles my mind. That, and I find most the noobs who say it generally suck at the game anyways. I can handle pls or plz but man, plox just sounds stupid.
Oh god:

"Lag" when referring to framerate issues.
I was reading some other threads and had the "oh my god, how the hell did I forget that?" realization that I didn't post that here. Lag as a computer term references data transfer. If your video card isn't sending the HDMI signal to your display at full speed (is that even possible?), you have "lag" in your video. Otherwise, your card is rendering frames as fast as it can and displaying them equally fast.
Honestly, I can't decide if "lag" or "mob" bothers me more. Probably "lag", because incorrect use can confuse someone capable of helping you diagnose your performance issues because they likely know the correct meaning and usage of the term.

This ain't a division, it's an arms race*
Ryan Lambert
July 01 2009 11:57AM
Things have gotten more than a little crazy here in the Northwest division in the last 24 hours (and I started writing this at FA-Day plus 18 minutes).
*Disclaimer: I really hate Fallout Boy
The problem with any arms race (the US vs. Russia in the Cold War, various West African nations post-1980s military coup d'état, Itchy vs. Scratchy, etc.) is that it escalates far too quickly. You go from keeping up with the Joneses to having a ponderous arsenal that's far bigger and more dangerous, to both your enemies and you, than you'll ever need. The USSR and the US, at the height of their nuclear might in the 1970s, could decimate the surface of Kyle Wellwood's gut the Earth several thousand times over.
And the last few days in the Northwest division has been little different, with teams stockpiling free agents and re-upping or trading for superstars with little regard for what that actually means for the Mutually Assured Destruction of each others' season win total.
So far the biggest splash, of course, was made by Calgary, which signed Jay Bouwmeester to a shockingly reasonable five-year, $33 million deal that will create a top-4 defense of him, Robyn Regehr, Dion Phaneuf and Cory Sarich. Which is to say that the Giordano-Pardy pairing will get a combined six seconds of ice time a night and no one will notice or care.
What someone might want to do though, is remind Darryl Sutter that the salary cap will likely be falling next season, and as such, investing over $30 million in just five of your highest-paid players might not be the best or safest strategy for winning, say, anything. We all saw what a mismanaged cap (albeit one that was not entirely his fault) can do to a team's ability to satisfactorily roll four lines and as good as Bouwmeester is, I think it might be important to not have nine forwards to your opponents' 12 at any point.
But the Bouwmeester signing seemed to touch off a shockwave that forced Vancouver to collapse to the contract demands of the Sedin boys, whose cap hit — a combined $12.2 million for each the next five years — is not-insignificantly more than the offer the twins had tabled a few weeks ago. You can argue that those contracts were to be for a rumored 12 years, rather than five, and that's fair enough. But on the other hand, maybe that extra $2.something million goes toward keeping a guy like Mattias Ohlund (or even Roberto Luongo) around for another year or three.
And the Edmonton Oilers, playing rogue third-world state to the Canucks' and Flames' nuclear superpowers, were not without their own reactionary overcommitment, or at least an attempt at one. The near-acquisition of Dany Heatley showed just how itchy the trigger fingers are up there thanks to the jealousy over the (relative) success of their provincial rivals. In theory, trading a decent and developing trigger man like Andrew Cogliano and a very promising defensive prospect like Ladislav Smid sounds like a hell of a plan if Heatley is the return. But in actual practice, the Heatley trade would have been a bit of a bit of a debacle. Heatley's a lot of things — a proven scorer, a failed Formula 1 racer, etc. — but in actual fact, he's a bit past it, and he's also far too expensive for what he brings to a team at this point, which, of course, includes being a petulant crybaby. Plus, the fact that he hates playing in Ottawa, but not badly enough that he'd lower himself to playing in Edmonton (and who could blame him?), is a sign that Steve Tambellini should really just kick the tires elsewhere.
It's really all just a giant pissing match for huge contracts that may or may not work out, and it comes off looking more a game of Global Thermonuclear War, where the winning move is not to play.
Late addition: And there goes Nikolai Khabibulin to Edmonton for four years at $3.75 million per. Which is ludicrous. They had no business trying to get into this shoving match, but you pretty much knew they were going to jump in at some point. But seriously, the rest of the Northwest Division would like to extend a hearty thanks to Tambellini for taking the plunge on a 56-year-old goalie. That's awesome.
I was thinking its unfortunate Heatley and MacT wont be united. I imagine they can have a world of topics to talk about. Mactavish apparently can be considered a failed F1 car racer too. Similar outcome only MacT got his corn hole plugged by a man named Bubba.
Needless to say Heatley joining the OIlers for that package may make them worse off.
I imagine Penner would play with Spezza. He will also be awarded the most unwaranted 30 goal scorer in the nhl that year like he was with Getzlaf. That will make them look stupid.
Smid really is the closest thing they have to a Defensive D-man. They got rid of Green and next Smid? Its not about points with this guy but defensive accumen. Hes young too and likely will get better. If they lose them then its up to Visnovsky to shut down the other teams best (hes the least worst at defense). Just saying defense wins.
Cogliano is their future and im pretty sure hell be better than Gagner.
Heatley isnt bringing them playoffs and they will become the Toronto Maple LEafs in no time.

Do what works for you. For example:
If it's your child who's having difficulty adjusting, try gently encouraging him or her to talk about feelings.

A student officially notifies the college of his or her intent to withdraw from all classes. The date of the official notice is considered the last date of attendance and will be the date used for calculating the amount of financial aid to be returned.
A student who receives all grades of "F" at the end of a semester or quit attending their classes is considered unofficially withdrawn. Instructors report the last recorded date of attendance for all students. This will be the date used for calculating the amount of financial aid to be returned to the Federal Government. Students who quit attending or received all grades of "F" or "W" and had financial aid returned to the Federal Government will owe that amount back to Chadron State College.
Meal plans are prorated based upon the number of weeks used.
If you completely withdraw from CSC and you are a financial aid recipient, a portion of your financial aid must be returned to the Department of Education. This is part of the USDE guidelines for the Return of Title IV Funds requirements. Financial Aid recipients officially or unofficially withdrawing from Chadron State College prior to the expiration of 60% of the payment period (semester), the Return of Title IV requirements apply to you. For more information on the Return of Title IV refund policies, please contact us. If you officially or unofficially withdraw after 60% of the payment period you are considered to have earned 100% of your financial aid received.
Refunds of tuition, fees, on-campus room and board charges will be calculated based on the number of days remaining in the semester at the time of the withdrawal. Financial aid refunds received for other educational expenses will be calculated based on the number of days remaining in the term at the time of the withdrawal. Refunded amounts are considered unearned financial aid and must be returned to the appropriate financial aid programs. Students are responsible for returning the amount owed. Failure to repay the amount owed will result in future financial aid ineligibility and possibly having your account turned over to the United States Department of Education. The refunded amounts will be returned in the following order:
NOTE: If you are a financial aid recipient, both the CSC and Federal Refund policies apply to you. You may end up owing both Chadron State College and the USDE if you officially or unofficially withdraw from Chadron State College. If you end up owing money to the USDE, you may no longer be eligible for future Student Financial Aid at any other institution until this money is returned. If you are planning to completely withdraw, we encourage you to explore your options before making a final determination, to avoid unforeseen consequences.
If you are a financial aid recipient and officially or unofficially withdraw from CSC, you may be eligible for Post Withdrawal of federal aid funds if they have not yet been applied to account as of the day you withdraw. You will be notified by hard copy letter within 30 days from your withdrawal date if you are eligible and any obligations you may have that pertain to those funds not yet disbursed.
As a financial aid recipient who officially or unofficially withdraws from CSC prior to the 60% of the enrollment period, you may be responsible for returning funds to the Federal Government based on the Return of Title IV calculation which is the formula that determines the amount of money to be returned. In addition, you may be required to pay CSC money that CSC had to return on your behalf. You will be notified by hard copy letter within 30 days of your repayment obligations. Repayment obligations must be satisfied within 45 days from the receipt of your notification letter. You will be eligible for financial aid within this 45 day period but eligibility will be discontinued on the 46th day unless the repayment is satisfied. The notification letter provides the terms for satisfying the repayment and the consequences for failing to repay.

Small Riot Breaks Out at Immigration Protest
Updated: Friday, 23 Apr 2010, 7:16 PM MDT Published : Friday, 23 Apr 2010, 4:21 PM MDT
The fight over Senate Bill 1070 took to the streets of downtown Phoenix, as riot Police were called to the Capitol to control an unruly group of protesters.
Witnesses say a group protesting against SB1070 began to fight with a man who was for the controversial immigration bill.
Police tried escorting that man away from the scene, fearing for his safety, when they too came under attack by people throwing items, including water bottles.
A young man was arrested during that melee.
Things calmed down moments later, but riot Police remained at the capital to maintain some sort of order.
Earlier in the day, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed SB1070 into law,.
Read more here...
Video at link above...
This is a second video from YouTube...that clearly show the cops being attacked.
Watch this video
The illegals are rioting. Good time to arrest them all, and "check their immigration status".
Those Tea Party people, I tell ya! They are so violent... oh wait!
Violence from the left? That's just First Amendment free speech!! Democracy at work. MSM doesn't need to report that.
This protest sure seemed racist to me. I saw no diversity.
First to be sent home?
Notice all the cameras are focused on the lone supporter of the bill being whisked to safety and ignoring the actual news story of the "protesters" acting like Nazis following a Jew in 1938.
It appeared to by about 2000 against 1.
Arrest them all!
I KNOW..seriously, when I saw the protesters on Fox News I thought to myself "Perfect timing, the illegals are out, now arrest them and throw their asses back in Mexico"
There are two videos here.
One link at the top of the thread, and this one from YouTube
Methinks it would be a long sentence in a stanky prison, if they survived the beatdown.
"license and registration"
They'd kill them.
Holy Guacamole, Batman!
That's dang close to a riot by the illegals and their supporters.
I am sure Geraldo will condemn this violence and paint illegal immigrant protesters as old angry brown men.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
I can guarandamntee you they would not be aiming pepper spray at you and hauling off the Mexican citizens.
Give him a break, Theo. He is just trying to be a little different, and I think that is fine.
Just what I said when the news of the protest came on this evening. Round them up and send them back to Mexiko.(i know)
The illegals are rioting. Good time to SHOOT them all, and check their immigration status.
There, fixed it for you.
You must live in California or New Mexico because AZ has been losing plenty of illegals.
But..but... They couldn't have been rioting and attacking police... These illegal immigrants are sooo harmless! ;-/ We're supposed to throw open our borders, our arms, our homes... To what? Or who? These people who riot and promote violence more than any other group with the exception of Muslims? Actually, I think the so-called supporters of immigration reform are probably worse than the illegal immigrants themselves.
Violence at today's protest...any surprise?
Yeah. That it took so long to happen...
I think the 240B has replaced the M-60, but that was a fine weapon!
Sure it is...
After they go home they can apply to LEGALLY immigrate to the US, then they can work, own property, drive cars etc. LEGALLY.
I'm going to have to agree disagree with you and agree with the poster that said the little box around the comment should NOT be used.
If everyone starts doing it, it is going to be a mess on this board. Remember when word processors came out and people figured out all the things they could do with the text? Do you want FR to start looking like this?
I Agree Wholeheartedly. FreeRepublic discussion BOARDS should never end up Looking like this. It is the content of the message that is the discussion, not how pretty some1 thinks they can make their text look.
Before Mexico became as dangerous as it is lately, that is exactly what was happening. People were going home when the economy tanked and work dried up. But...
Now there are kidnappings going on down there. Anyone that was in the U.S. and banked some money has a high likleyhood of being held for ransom.
Families that get money sent to them from the U.S. are having a family member kidnapped and then a message is sent to the relative living in the U.S. to send payment.
It is going to take much more incentive than whay you point out for them to want to go back home.
You also forget one significant point - many people do. They are not just the employees. They are the employers. The days of Mexicans coming here and taking meanial jobs are long gone. They are you pool repair and supply company, the company you purchased your satellite service from, the guy that sold you your furniture, that owns the company that supplies pallets to you company...you name it.
That is a long, many year process.
Attrition through enforcement. But even that won't work until our borders are EFFECTIVELY secured.
The whole defeatist 'round 'em up' argument originated by the pro-amnesty crowd.
If our current immigration laws are enforced, no jobs, no medical care, no Federal or State benefits...along with no banking privileges, no mortgages or auto loans...they'll have NO CHOICE but to leave. Those who refuse should be rounded up, placed in camps along the border, forced to build a double fence, and THEN deported.
Ooh my eyes.
But saying this as politely as I can, it is delusional to think that what you suggest (rounded up, placed in camps along the border, forced to build a double fence, and THEN deported) is going to happen. It feels good to say it but it is an impossibility.
The Republicans and Democrats in power over the last four decades have created an impossible mess. You can not wish back time as if the mess never happened.
I just read your "about" page. You wanna know something?
Wouldn't it be great if every post on FR was done like that? Not!
Wonder when NBC, SEE-BS, ABC, MSNBC, and CNN will do their 14 weeks of coverage of the racist Mexican illegals?
Attrition through enforcement will work if we elect a POTUS who will enforce our current immigration laws and effectively secure the border. As far as camps for those who refuse to leave and building the fence...piece of cake for Sheriff Joe!
Jinx, I don't think that water bottle throwing (shown in the video) was anywhere near the riots that are coming............
I'm bolted and locked and loaded.
Thank you.
It's Arizona Night on Free Republic. The last state in the continental US to be brought into the union, is taking drawn swords and rushing the battle lines, first met. Free cactus coolers for all in a celebratory toast. We've got them on the run, my fellow Americans, and they are trashing the place on the way out. Typical.
That is a long, many year process.
Too damn bad. Millions of people have done just that and many more are doing so right now. Those immigrants are welcome; illegals are not.
Hear their "student activist" speaking about this. He as a big BUT. He's not excusing their behavior (rioting, hitting officers with bottles and rocks) BUT this "WHITE GUY" wear a T that said, 'I can go where I want because I can'. And he walked in front of "Mexicans". what did he expect?

As of Oct. 25, more than 34,000 ballots had already been returned in Douglas County for the 2013 election that will decide four school-board seats and help determine the outcome of two state ballot measures.
According to the county's clerk and recorder, Jack Arrowsmith, that number accounts for just under 18 percent of the approximately 193,000 ballots that have been mailed out. That said, Arrowsmith predicts that this year's turnout could easily be over 50 percent and very possibly closer to 60 percent. School board elections in 2009 and 2011 brought out 27.4 percent and 48 percent of registered voters, respectively.
"One can never tell what voter turnout is going to be," Arrowsmith said. "But I would predict that we are going to have a much higher turnout than we did in 2011."
For those who still need to register, mail registration closed Oct. 15 and online registration closed Oct. 28, but people can register in person at any of the five service centers throughout the county — regardless of where they live — right up until 7 p.m. Nov. 5 when polls close. Weekday hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at all five centers, as well as 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 2 and 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day.
Registration is open to all new Colorado residents who have lived in the state since Oct. 15. Inactive voters who did not receive a ballot must update their voter registration in order to participate.
According to Arrowsmith, residential addresses will be verified on site at time of registration, making accompanying ballots immediately valid.
Voters can expect to see early election results at www.douglasvotes.com by 7:30 p.m. Nov. 5 and they will be updated every 90 minutes throughout the night, he said.
For more information, please visit www.douglasvotes.com.

Didn't work out for me
"The shoe is very cute, but there's a few things that I didn't like about it. It was to big, and floppy. I tried to order the next half size down, but that means I would need a 9.5 which there are no more of that size in the black color I wanted. The straps that wrap around the ankle are supposed to also wrap around the portion of the shoe that covers the heel, but the straps don't stay down to keep that part covered. The straps kept riding up the back of my foot off of the part that is supposed to cover the back of the heel. There is nothing to keep the straps securely on top of that material on the shoe. I really wanted it to work out, but there is no more of the size I need. :-( I would've even overlook that minor detail about the straps too. So now, I've got to decide whether I'm going to do a return or exchange for something else. So disappointed about this shoe!"

Trendy flats
"I absolutely love these flats! They are unique and super trendy. The do run large, so order 1/2 size down. I got them online in 7 (I am 7 1/2 or 8 in sneakers and boots) and they fit perfectly. They did rub a bit the first time I wore them but I was ready for it and had my Blister Defense Stick on, which worked out fine (had to re-apply once). I can't say enough how much I love these beauties!"

So Cute!
"These have become a favorite and I know I'll get more wear out of them as the weather gets warmer. Initially, they cut the sides of my feet, but now that the leather has softened, they are fine. :)"

Such high hopes, such a let down
"I really wanted to love these shoes as a "go to" for spring and summer, but sadly they were a let down. The fit was really off - I'm usually an 8 or 8.5 but the 8 was too large - both lengthwise (would suggest ordering a 1/2 size down) and also there was a big gap between the top of my foot and the shoe itself. Also, I ordered the nude color and there was an odd orange discoloration in the material. Not sure if it's because the shoes are made from synthetic leather? It was noticeable enough in both pairs so that I won't be exchanging for a smaller size."
