At the recent Green River City Council meeting, Amy Wilmarth, Green River Chamber of Commerce chairman, led a power point presentation about the activities of the chamber. G.R.E.A.T. stands for the Green River Economic Action Team and the chamber works under that organization. She reported that since the economic summit held in Green River in February, the chamber has compiled the findings and suggestions from that meeting, and drawn up a plan to help the city become a more vibrant community.
The chamber has recruited enough people to form the 13 committees needed to carry out the suggested implementations recommended from the findings of the summit. The 13 committees will work for the chamber. These people are members of the community and representatives of businesses. Currently there are 19 businesses in Green River that have joined the chamber.
Wilmarth gave an overview of the goals from the summit. In the formation of the vibrant community economic development plan, the chamber used the suggestions from the summit, and they are the basis for the committees.
Mona Schoenfelder said that the summit provided four learning sessions, and more than 50 people attended the summit. "It was such a success and we had great feedback, and we are making plans for the 2006 summit." said Schoenfelder. The educational sessions were facilitated by Lou Sansevero, Bim Oliver, Ed Meyer, Jim Huffaker and Mike McCandless, and Kresha Eastman gave the summit wrap-up session.
Joni Pace explained the goals of the marketing and promotions committee. The committee has begun work toward accomplishing its goals for promoting Green River. Publishing the Green River Currents, a monthly newsletter, was one goal that has been accomplished. This newsletter contains local news and events, and is sponsored by local merchants.
Another goal was to publish the Green River Business Guide. This guide lists all the businesses and information about each business. Snip Bits is another publication used for advertising Green River businesses. It contains short histories of Green River, and attached around the outside are coupons that can be used at local shops.
Connie Copenhaver reported from the Melon Days committee. The chamber had previously approached the city council concerning the Melon Days celebration. Copenhaver stated that the chamber is willing to help the city with preparations or any way possible. She stated that the chamber would like to have a 100 year celebration during Melon Days next year.
Wilmarth presented the committee report concerning the beautification projects. They have joined with the Utah Main Street Project for assistance and ideas. The committee has chosen to work on Broadway Street this year. Their plan is to update the business fronts of those that wish to participate. Over the next six months, the committee will be taking suggestions on what needs to be done, and continue to actively seek funding to complete the project.
The off highway vehicle committee is headed up by Tamara Ekker. She reported that OHV activity is on the rise and Green River has an ideal location to host OHV events. Their goal is to host two events annually and begin networking with the Bureau of Land Management, OHV manufacturers, the National Parks service, and search and rescue organizations. She stated that the residents of Green River want to form an OHV club and make Green River an OHV recreation destination.
Ekker reported that another goal is to create a training site for OHV users, and at this training site, provide an emphasis on environmental protection and responsible land use. Another idea is for Green River to form a trail system and make tracks for the citizens to ride.
Shannon Sweeten is the committee chairman of the athletic events portion of the chamber. He stated that they are working on organizing a marathon, events on the river, and equestrian events. A Family Float is planned for this fall.
Copenhaver is heading up the State and Trust Lands committee. She has made plans to meet with Bryan Torgesen to discuss concerns and plans for using state lands.
Wilmarth reported on the business awards committee. This is a newly formed committee and will put together the criteria for awards to recognize businesses in Green River in different categories.
Copenhaver has undertaken the committee to improve the AmTrak station. Presently at the station, passengers who are waiting for a train do not have any facilities. There is no shelter, phone, or transportation. She is making contacts with Union Pacific to talk about the issues surrounding the station.
Nancy Dunham said that Green River is a perfect place for people to retire in, so she is heading up the committee to investigate that aspect of the summit suggestions. She stated, "There is a wonderful opportunity here. We need marketing to attract retirees and get our message out about the perfect place we have here."
Dunham is also over the melon marketing committee. She said that the residents and producers of Green River need to begin researching and developing value added products. The committee has come up with numerous ideas and promotions to assist the melon farmers to develop a year round market for their products.
Mary Wilmarth, chairman of the Positive Action Community Team, is helping the chamber with grants and funding. PACTs function is to raise funds for any positive community project. Any of the committees can be helped to bring their goals to completion with grants and funding raised by PACT.
The committee to formulate and bring SuperHost training to Green River is headed by Kelly Quinn. She is working with Workforce Services to develop the training. This program will be designed to train employees and high school students, to enhance their performance, friendliness, and local knowledge. As a result of this training, employees who deal with the public can assist visitors with all facets of their stay and in turn will make the visitors time in Green River more memorable.
Wilmarth wrapped up the presentation of the chamber activities with a request for the city council. She stated that these committees need all the help they can get, be it ideas or implementation of ideas. She encouraged the council to become involved with this effort to make Green River a better place to live, recreate, and do business.

Milquetoast, hold the jam; on Kessel
Cam Charron
March 22 2012 01:22PM
(Casper Milquetoast)
The last time the Toronto Maple Leafs won a Stanley Cup, their starting goalie made 40 of 41 saves against a Montreal roster that included Jean Beliveau, Henri Richard and Yvan Cournoyer. That goaltender was also described as a player, by Andrew Podnieks as one who "lived a life so rife with unhappiness" and was "unfriendly to reporters, teammates, and even small children."
Now, in no way does the career of Phil Kessel mirror that of Terry Sawchuk but when people discuss Sawchuk upon reflection of the goaltender who died much too soon, they focus on the records he set and the Stanley Cups he won with the Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings.
When we look back on Kessel's career with the Maple Leafs, however long it is, he will probably be remembered as a player who scored 30 goals consistently on a team that not only had limited star talent, but limited talent in general. Kessel, the only player on Toronto's first line (he skated at practice on Thursday with Tyler Bozak and Carter Ashton) who would be in the top nine on 25 of 30 teams in the National Hockey League, is not the problem the Leafs face.
Yet there's a perception that follows Kessel around, probably because he's a reserved individual with minimal outward personality. Even for somebody who follows the Leafs, they wouldn't be able to pick his voice out of a crowd's, or point to any mannerism the man displays aside from the awkward smile he portrays in the rare moments he's seen in public.
Kessel talks on the ice, playing for a team where so few players can. Jeff Blair of the Globe and Mail described Kessel as "a milquetoast, Tom Thumb guy who shrinks even further in front of the cameras."
Milquetoast, hold the jam, I guess, being a dominant personality or individual is a characteristic widely appreciated in hockey so long as nobody is too much of one right PK Subban? Sean Avery? Beware the wrath of the media for any player or team that dares to prevent them from transcribing quotes quickly so they can submit their vanilla game recaps.
The Toronto Star has speculated about Kessel's trade value as very low, Steve Buffrey of the Toronto Star has asserted that "that first line lollygag" (gee, wonder where he got that idea) is the reason behind both the Leafs' struggles and his own minus-18 rating, as if goaltending doesn't play a huge part of it.
We've noted on this blog how often Kessel will start a rush and finish it as opposed to his linemates. Bozak and, before he got hurt, Joffrey Lupul rarely get or got the same criticism for the first line's defensive concerns.
The Star, to its credit, left most of the silly comments to their sources, and quoted a general manager who said "to be perfectly honest… I don't think [Kessel] is a player most teams need on their roster."
It's worth noting that he is described only as the GM of a team that is not in playoff contention. And god forbid the Star reveal the source of this cowardly quoter so that fans could understand what kind of team-building genius was suggesting that a 24 year old, four time 30-goal scorer was not a player that most teams need on their roster.
After all, Kessel is 23 and has 68 goals in the last two seasons. Rick Nash is 27 and has 57, and yet it was suggested by the Star that Kessel ought to be the centrepiece of a deal for Nash rather than Nash the centrepiece of a deal for Kessel. I wonder if that ridiculous suggestion, frequently mentioned on Rogers Sportsnet, has anything to do with some talking heads having their careers tied to the success of the latter (step forward Doug MacLean) and a personal dislike of Brian Burke. Naw, the media never has bones to pick. They're impartial!
Body-language and lollygagging aside, I have yet to see evidence that any other player in the NHL in Kessel's skates, charismatic, from Southern Ontario or not, could lead this team any better than the way Kessel has. He isn't perfect, and perhaps he isn't the franchise player you build a team around. But his season, third in goals and fourth in points, is certainly something every team needs.
Goals, not post-game quotes, are what wins hockey games, and Toronto fans need to understand this. A few media members' obsession with an easy story rather than with what wins games makes us forget just how good of a season Kessel is having, personality aside. He won't answer to reporters after the games, but he's paid to play hockey, not to spout clichés like a lobotomy patient after 82 games. If that won Cups, the Leafs would ice an all-star team made up of the best of the Star, Sun, Globe, Rogers, TSN, and Post's corporate teams.
March 22 2012, 01:45PM
Why do I get the feeling that GM quote may have been the product of some intrepid reporter calling up Scott Howson to ask his thoughts on the Kessel-Nash talk? It would make almost too much sense.
March 22 2012, 01:47PM
Even though Kessel isn't as loud and outspoken as other athletes, one thing I find about him - through some of the times he has talked, and the way he carries himself on the ice - is that he genuinely loves hockey on a level that maybe not all players do. I mean, he seems like a guy who's really the most comfortable when he's wearing hockey gear. If he was to be traded tomorrow, I think he'd still be a favorite player of mine for the remainder of his career - he's that gifted.
March 22 2012, 01:48PM
@Garrett Bauman
I think it's a totally manufactured quote to be honest. It's a Fox News "some people say" move by the Star.
March 22 2012, 02:04PM
To me the story should be that Phil "having a career year surrounded by scrubs" Kessel has yet to complain about how awful the rest of the team has been. Or that he has no support. He takes all the pressure and just shrugs it off and keeps putting up points. For a guy who is supposedly "easy to intimidate" putting up career numbers with a team in free-fall is pretty impressive.
The impression I get from Kessel is he is a player that is good at playing hockey but not necessarily a player who loves playing hockey. And that he would be more comfortable not being the go-to guy so to speak. Which isn't a negative as you need all types of players on a team. But he has been put in a situation where he is not likely comfortable in the role he's been given and that's not his fault. The ironic thing is some of these same criticisms (leading the team on the ice, lack of quality teammates, etc.) were leveled at Mats Sundin and he appeared to handle it with more aplomb yet he still got criticized.
Commenting about the tiniest part of your piece.
I wonder how much of Kessel's -18 rating is due to being on the ice for empty-net goals and short-handed goals against. Being the Leafs' best offensive threat, he's clearly going to be the go-to guy on the powerplay and when down a goal late so he's going to get the - in those situations while less important and skilled guys are glued to the bench.
I don't know how much that affects Kessel's +/- but Andrew Berkshire has been tracking that type of thing for the Habs this season when he adjusts +/- to "true +/-". Plekanec's been on the ice for 16 of the Habs 18 short-handed and empty-net goals against.
Kessel being on the ice for a similar proportion of those goals for the Leafs would not be surprising and he doesn't get the benefit of a + for being on the ice for short-handed goals for since he isn't used as a penalty killer.
March 22 2012, 02:42PM
That's a lot of goals for Plekanec. Interesting stat.
March 22 2012, 03:28PM
Whoa, that's a hell of a stat. Part of it is definitely that while the Leasf are chasing a lead you'll see Kessel out much more and the Leafs will be pressing.
Andrew had a good post about how the save percentage when he's played has killed him too.
He's only -8 according to NHL stats.
Yeah, he's only -8 on the season. Take away ENG and put in league average goaltending and you have a player that is in the + with everyone talking about how good of a defensive season he's having. That being said +/- really does have to be taken with a grain of salt. Unless the player is getting exactly league average goaltending, it really means nothing.

USDA Serving Montana Ranchers, Farmers
USDA plays an important and vital role in supporting rural communities throughout the country. On my recent trip to Montana, I saw firsthand how the work, services and programs provided by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Farm Service Agency (FSA) and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) directly impact stakeholder day-to-day operations.
After a listening session in Cut Bank, I was invited to the Rockport Colony, by Ben Hofer, the Secretary for the Hutterite community near Pendroy, Montana. This impressive communal farming/ranching operation includes sheep, cattle, hog and poultry production, a dairy, and meat-processing facility, as well as fruit, vegetable, and grain production. I quickly learned USDA is an important partner, providing support for water lines, fencing, and wildlife damage management. Read more »

UC Davis Traditions: Past & Present
This exhibit was previously on display in the Special Collections Display Cases during Summer-Fall 2012. Now, presented here as a web exhibit.
Special Collections presents this exhibit of selections from the University Archives Photographs Collection featuring campus traditions, some of which continue to this day.
The University Archives Photographs Collection offers a visual record of the history of the University of California, Davis. The collection contains photographic prints and negatives, and depicts buildings and grounds, faculty and staff, campus events, classes and classrooms, student clubs and activities, departments, and sporting events.
Frosh Dinks
Members of the freshman class, as a sign of unity, wore caps known as dinks. The dinks, which were blue with a gold button and had "Cal Aggie" lettered in gold across the front, were worn by all freshmen to classes and meetings. If the freshmen won the Frosh-Soph Brawl, which occurred during the first month of classes, they could stop wearing the dinks immediately. However, if the sophomores won the brawl, the freshmen had to wear the dinks until the Pajamarino Rally, which was held during Homecoming Weekend. This campus tradition went out of fashion in the 1960s.
President's Reception
Each fall during the 1950s and 1960s, the University of California President would visit Davis to welcome new students to the University and those returning to the campus. The 1956 El Rodeo Yearbook described the event which was sponsored by the Cal Club as "one of the first and biggest social events in the fall." The receptions were held in the Memorial Union, Freeborn Hall, Everson Hall or the Faculty Club and often included a dance.
Tank Rush and the Frosh-Soph Brawl
Class rivalry dates back to at least 1913 when a class "fight" took place at the swimming tank on October 3. In subsequent years, a tank rush was formalized and the freshmen and upperclassmen battled to push each other into the tank.
The tank rush evolved into the Frosh-Soph Brawl. At different times, the Brawl, which was held during the first month of classes, consisted of the following events between the freshmen and sophomores: a tug-of-war, obstacle race, jousting, a haystacking contest, and the tank rush.
If the freshmen won the Frosh-Soph Brawl, they could stop wearing the frosh dinks immediately. However, if the sophomores won the brawl, the freshmen had to wear the dinks until the Pajamarino Rally, which was held during Homecoming Weekend. The Frosh-Soph Brawl tradition survived at least until the 1960s.
The present day Pajamarino traces its roots back to 1912 when according to the 1913 El Rodeo Yearbook: "A big pajama rally was held for the basketball team on December 6, 1912. A large bonfire, quartets, and violin solos were the features of the evening."
By 1915 the rally was known as Pajamarino and was held on the eve of a football game in October. During the 1920s, the pajama clad rally students "serpentined" through the main streets of Davis and returned to campus for a bonfire. The tradition evolved and the pajama clad students began marching to the train station to meet returning alumni. They accompanied the alumni back to the campus for the rally around the bonfire. After the rally, a dance was held.
The Pajamarino tradition continues today.
Labor Day
In 1915, University Farm students initiated an annual "Labor Day" event where they conducted volunteer work on campus improvements. They drew inspiration from UC Berkeley, which had started the event in 1897. The first Labor Day projects at Davis included the construction of athletic fields, fences, and walks. Later the event became a leap year activity, taking place on February 29.
Subsequent projects included: installation of an irrigation system for the new grass lawn on the Quad (1932); assistance with digging the hole for the swimming pool by the new gymnasium (1936), and cleaning up Putah Creek in preparation for plantings in the arboretum (1940).
The last traditional leap year Labor Day was held in 1964. Activities included the demolition of the thirty year old cashier's building, construction of bleachers for the relocated horse arena, painting of the football bleachers and baseball dugouts, improvements of recreational areas along Putah Creek, and planting of trees in Orchard Park.
Wild West Days
Wild West Days were originally held on the Davis campus in the fall of 1960. The event, which occurred over a weekend, wasn't held during 1961-1962 but resumed again in the spring of 1963. According to the Centennial Record: "for the two days before the activities, western clothes are worn to classes and it is permissible for students to ride horses on campus." The weekend activities included bronc riding, wild cow milking, calf roping, steer riding, hog calling, a greased pig scramble, and barrel racing contests. Wild West Days were held at least until 1969.
Little I
The Little International Livestock Show or "Little I" was started in 1937 by the Golden Hoof Club to provide competition in grooming and showmanship for students working with animals from the University herds.
At some point, ASUCD assumed sponsorship of the event which was then advertised as an event designed for students, experienced or not, who were interested in showing animals. ASUCD awarded trophies and ribbons to the winners.
"Little I" is still held on campus and is now sponsored by the UCD Young Cattleman's Association.
Picnic Day
The Picnic Day tradition started on May 22, 1909 with a "Dedication Basket Picnic," said to have been suggested by Mrs. Carolee Shields, to honor the opening of North Hall, the first dormitory on the campus of the University Farm (now the University of California, Davis).
Picnic Day has since become the annual open house for the campus and has grown into one of the largest student-run events in the U.S.
From 1948 until the early 1990s, Picnic Day festivities included an Aquacade. The Aquacade featured synchronized swimming, live music, and a poolside variety show.
Whole Earth Festival
The first Whole Earth Festival took place March 17-21, 1970. The idea behind the festival was brought to the Davis campus during the winter vacation break of 1969. A member of the ASUCD Experimental College attended a San Francisco lecture by Swami Satchidananda where the spiritual leader's close friend, John McConnell, described the concept of an Earth Day.
UCD art historian Jose Arguelles seized upon the idea and 400 of his Art 147 and Art 138B classes took on planning of a Whole Earth Week as a final examination.

Dustin Penner: On the trade market again
Jonathan Willis
February 12 2013 08:04AM

It looks like once again Dustin Penner has fallen into disfavor. The 6'4" winger has played in just four of Los Angeles' 11 games this season, and his name is starting to crop up in trade rumours.
From Elliotte Friedman's always excellent "30 Thoughts" column on Monday, after asking which players might be available via trade:
Another player of interest is Dustin Penner. He's really in the doghouse with just three games played [note: Penner played Monday night]. If the Kings so desired, there would certainly be a market. He's on a one-year deal. Hard to pin down many more names. Some teams don't want to deal excess players because depth is critical. Very few teams are out of it, which prevents fire sales, and with the cap going down to $64.3 million US in 2013-14, you don't want to add a big salary if you can avoid it. Maybe things loosen up in the next week or so.
This is familiar territory for Penner, who was in this same position a year ago – a frequent healthy scratch, struggling to work his way back into his coach's good books. Darryl Sutter challenged him to "work his ass off" at the time and Penner responded well, becoming an important support player for the Kings in the playoffs, and ultimately winning a Stanley Cup with the team and earning a new contract – a one-year, $3.25 million deal.
Penner has responded with good humour, and says he's in a better situation now than he was a year ago:
It's fine. It's not something I'm seeking counseling about… I'm in a good place professionally, mentally and emotionally. It's a lot easier to take this now than it was last year.
Will somebody take a chance on him? Penner's generally a better player than he gets credit for even when he isn't scoring, he has size (listed at 6'4", 242lbs), he's on a short-term deal, but more important than all that is this: he's one of the very few guys who might be able to positively impact a team without requiring a massive return to land him.
Should the Oilers take a chance on him? I think the question is probably academic - I'm guessing that ship has long since sailed.

Yeah. Other teams would never play talented rookies in their 3rd lines.
For example STL. would never play Tarasenko on the...oh right.
Well for sure MIN would never do that to Granlund....dammit.
Well it's still a bad idea right?
I actually said no to getting Penner back as well. His effort is very inconsistant and I think he needs to be top 6 to be effective. Obviously, without the work ethic he just doesn't fit in a defensive or grinding role.
I also don't think Yak would be effective in that role either. He is still too defensively imature and you are stunting his offensive growth.
Then I thought of something that may work for this team. If they got Penner for Teubert or magic beans and spaced their skill out between the 3 lines. Then role 3 lines and dress a 4th line of 2 PK sepcialists and an enforcer. The 4th line would get very small minutes other then on the PK.
Something like
Penner - Nuge - Eberle
Hall - Gagner - Yakupov
Hartikainan - Horcoff - Hemsky
Smyth - Belanger - Eager
Probably mentioned already, Penner for Whitney, bring it on, we will throw in someone injured.
Are we all forgetting the Smyth/Fraser/Brule fiasco? Isn't it possible that Lombardi doesn't want anything to do with Tambo? He seems like a guy who holds a grudge.
I'm sure Lambo would do a trade. He's eaten the Oilers lunch on trades, and they were essential in winning the cup. The Smytty trade was essential for dumping salsry and landing Carter, and signing Doughty. Heck he should of been laughing, not crying.
Eberle- Nuge- Penner
Hemsky- Gagner- Hall
Yakupov - Belanger- MPS
Hartski- VV- Eager
February 12 2013, 06:07PM
Sammywas a big boy and all you so called experts use to say nasty remarks about his skating. I think with a little prod or two Pen would fit.It,s tough to play for a Sutter Ralph is a complete different personallity I,m sure he,d fit.Never mind Mac T he,s not the boss yet
February 12 2013, 06:14PM
One more comment Power play Pen in front harrasing the d-men and screening with RNH and Eb driving hard it would work wonders think about it people and maybe Hall and number 19 on the points How about some comments guys
I see Penner in Buffalo or Winnipeg or Montreal. Maybe Washington or Philly...
February 12 2013, 07:51PM
Matt Kassian just put on waivers by Minny. Any interest as a 4th liner? He is huge and fights.
Oil need to get them some Penner or Boyle. Boyle is a healthy scratch again. I would definitely think either guy would fit well on this team.
I actually think there's a pretty reasonable spot on the Oilers forward lines to try Penner - with Gagner and Hemsky on L2. The problem is that you can't put him there without bumping Yakupov.
I think Yakapov would get more chances of the rush if he played on the third or fourth line, and turnovers at either blue line would not be as costly as when he plays against the better lines.
For the right price (a low one) yes. He could be our 13th forward and could be a very nice addition to our already potent powerplay. However, is Lombardi willing to swallow his pride and trade Penner back for something less? I'd say he could replace Petrell but I don't think he'd do a very good job on the PK, at least compared to Petrell
He just won a cup!!! I think Penner paid for himself as he was clutch in the playoffs.
February 13 2013, 12:19AM
Yup, trade for Dustin Penner.
And while we're at it let's raise property taxes 10%, implement a citywide dress code, and reduce the Whitemud to one lane.
That's progress.
February 13 2013, 12:19AM
Brian Boyle would be a nice pick up.

NEW YORK, Feb 17 (Reuters) - Call it the downtown advantage. Saint Louis University School of Law has become the latest law school to announce plans to move, or expand, downtown.
The new location will offer law school students easier access to real-world professional experience, law school administrators say. The move from the main campus to a donated 11-story building will take place in time for the 2012-13 academic year.
It joins Phoenix School of Law, the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law, Fordham Law and the University of Baltimore School of Law, all of which have recently announced downtown relocations or expansions.
The move will strengthen the connections among up-and-coming lawyers and members of the practicing bar and business and civic leaders, said Annette Clark, dean of Saint Louis University School of Law.
"Our new home will be in the heart of where law is practiced," she said.
The new facility will also bring students closer to low-income communities they serve in clinical courses, Clark said.
Earlier this month, the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law finalized the purchase of a former Detroit firehouse to house its clinical programs. The new facility is expected to open in December.
Two years ago, the university's board of trustees and administration had asked the law school to explore potential cost savings by relocating from downtown to join the rest of the campus in northwest Detroit. The law school determined that it belonged downtown, said Lloyd Semple, the dean of the law school.
"We see our downtown location as a tremendous asset," Semple said. While some students would prefer a bucolic campus with rolling green hills and places to lie in the sun, Mercy School of Law offers "real-life experience," he said.
Students take advantage of externships with judges and the prosecutors' office, interface directly with federal and state courts, and work in one of 10 legal clinics serving the local community, Semple said.
In January, for-profit Phoenix School of Law completed its move into larger facilities downtown from another part of the city. The school, which moved from Scottsdale to Phoenix in 2006, settled on the space after a two-year search. Access to light rail and other transportation, along with proximity to the courts and major law firms, were motivating factors, said Nina Segovia, director of marketing for Phoenix School of Law.
Locating law schools downtown is not a new phenomenon. Fordham, Georgetown, Loyola Marymount in Los Angeles and Loyola University Chicago and Boston College have had downtown law school campuses for years.
Fordham Law School was originally located on Fordham University's Rose Hill campus in the Bronx. After relocating to other locations in downtown Manhattan, Fordham Law moved to its current location at Fordham University's Lincoln Center campus in 1961. Fordham Law School is relocating to a new, larger building near Lincoln Center in 2014.
After occupying several other spaces in Washington, Georgetown Law's campus has been at the foot of Capitol Hill since 1971. It allows students to easily access to Congress and the U.S. Supreme Court, along with government agencies and administrative boards.
"We have always believed that a law school should be in the heart of the city and not far removed from the problems that courts resolve," said Georgetown Law Professor Wallace Mlyniec, who authored a book on the school's history and helped create its public interest and community service center. "We have never seriously considered moving to the campus."

I have two computers, one with XP and one with Vista.
I bought the Vista one only a few months back, but I'm unable to install many of the games and programs I want to install and I have no idea why. The computer was brand new, and I haven't changed any of the settings. Still, the only games I can install are The Sims 2 and...well... sims 2 expansion packs.
That's why I came to the conclusion that Vista was not such a good idea. Even the office programs are twisted. I can't even copy text from the internet and paste it into word (or 'works' as it is called) without getting a warning message resulting in the works documents closing.
Vista has a great design, but causes me much trouble. I've never had these problems with XP and it's so annoying 'cause I have no idea what to do about it (I'm clueless when it comes to changing computer settings and stuff like that)
Which do you guys prefer?
(I don't remember if I've posted this before in this forum, but I didn't find it , so I assumed I hadn't)

By JB Clark/NEMS Daily Journal
VERONA – The owner of a Verona apartment unit where a fatal shooting took place Friday has been identified as the one killed.
Lee County Coroner Carolyn Green said Saturday the person who died of a gunshot wound to the head was 46-year-old Jeya Suppiah. He died in the office of Bailey Apartments.
Verona Mayor Bobby Williams said Suppiah owned the Bailey Apartments on Raymond Avenue as well as other properties in the city.
"We just hate that happened," he said. "Something like that is just unfortunate – that someone had to lose their life like that."
Another person reportedly was injured in the shooting and was transported to North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo.
Apartment residents, who asked not to be named, said they were in their apartments when they heard three shots fired sometime between 5:30 p.m. and 5:45 p.m. Friday. The 911 call came at 5:46 p.m.
Residents said after hearing the three shots, they came outside and saw one tall, light-skinned man standing behind the apartment office but said he, "didn't stick around."
According to law enforcement, police were searching Friday night for a light-skinned black male that was about 6 feet, 4 inches tall, weighing about 240 pounds and last seen wearing a gray sweatshirt, black toboggan and black and gray gloves.
Police officials also said residents heard shots but they had not talked to anyone who saw the shooting take place.
Verona police, Lee County Sheriff's deputies, Tupelo police and Shannon police responded to the scene, fanning out and searching the area for a suspect who reportedly left the scene immediately.
The Tupelo Police Department helicopter hovered over the apartment complex, searching the woods with a spotlight shortly after the report.

Allows companies to launch enterprise-wide new product introductions on-time and on-budget.
ENOVIA IP Export Classification
Defines a classification system to protect vital intellectual property from unintentional export.
ENOVIA IP Export Classification allows organizations to properly protect intellectual property (either their own IP or that of others) from unauthorized disclosure within their ENOVIA system. It complements the general–purpose access controls available with ENOVIA Studio Development and Test (DTE), which is based on an object type's maturity in its lifecycle and a user's assigned roles and/or groups. By contrast ENOVIA IP Export Classification implements the description of category-specific rules that must be met by any user trying to access an item. The classifications typically affect many different item types (e.g. Part, Requirement, Specification, etc.) and apply irrespective of the items' maturity or status.
Successful operation of a multi-party PLM system includes proper protection of the intellectual property (IP) of the parties involved. The IP may belong to a commercial organization or its disclosure may be restricted by a government. In all cases, the need is to prevent exposure of information to unauthorized individuals or information transfer to unauthorized locations.
ENOVIA IP Export Classification utilizes a system of classification of information items in ENOVIA in order to store pertinent information about the security rules of each category and provide that information to the protection mechanism in the companion ENOVIA IP Export Control product. The classified information items can either be documents containing files or pure metadata and can either be native data within ENOVIA PLM or objects federated from external systems.
This method of authorizing access to data items means that an organization can have a single ENOVIA system to manage all relevant product data in the enterprise and safely share the system with all manner of people regardless of their organizational affiliation, nationality or physical location. Without such a capability, organizations are forced to protect intellectual property by storing it in physically separate systems – with all the inconsistency, process delays and extra overhead costs these create.
- Customers, partners, suppliers and employees can all operate in one PLM environment while protecting each party's IP.
- Many kinds of data can be protected with one mechanism yielding more reliable and auditable IP protection.
- Multiple systems and data stores used previously for IP protection by physical data segregation can be decommissioned.
- Setting up the IP classifications and access criteria is all in the hands of the responsible business people, not the IT team.
Define IP Security ClassificationsENOVIA IP Export Classification is used by the usually small group of people who are responsible for enforcement of various kinds of IP protection. The product is delivered with a set of pre-defined security classes, each with a unique set of credentials or conditions that must be met by a user to gain access to the information in the class. The classes can be modified or new ones created by the users of ENOVIA IP Export Classification. Among the user credentials that are used to evaluate whether to show an item of information include citizenship, country-of-birth, organization affiliation and current (country) location.
Granular Denied-Access ControlThe customer can configure what behavior is desired when access is denied by IP classes. Items can be completely hidden from users – they appear not to exist at all – or they can be exposed in a limited way. Denial of access behavior is controlled by policy settings made with ENOVIA Studio Modeling Platform. Access denial results in:
- The user sees nothing when "no-show" is set.
- The user sees the Type, Name and Revision of the item when "show" is set.
- The user sees the Type, Name and Revision of the item and can navigate to its attributes when "read" is set.
Access ExceptionsIt is common to create exceptions to the rules. In commercial settings the exceptions are often handled with Non-Disclosure Agreements – in which one company grants another company (or selected people within it) access to some intellectual property. In the context of government controls a common mechanism is to grant an export license to waive the normal restrictions under certain, specific conditions. Such exceptions are recorded using ENOVIA IP Export Classification and are automatically respected by the checking mechanism in ENOVIA IP Export Control, which is the complimentary product for enforcing the export classifications. ENOVIA IP Export Classification has can list the items covered by the exception and the people or organizations granted the access by the exception. The exceptions can also contain the documents (e.g. an NDA agreement, an Export License) on which they are based and which they are designed to implement. The exceptions have their own lifecycles and properties and can participate in any relevant business processes for submission and approval.

We are pleased that you are interested in books, CDs and DVDs from the Gabriele Publishing House.
Do you already know which book, CD or DVD you would like to order?
The Gabriele Publishing House
The Gabriele Publishing House The Word publishes the prophetic word of the present time, given through Gabriele, the prophetess and emissary of God, in the form of books, pamphlets, CDs and DVDs. The word of the free, universal Spirit has been offered to people of all cultures for nearly 40 years, by way of a fullness of divine revelations, schoolings and explanations, as a guide for a responsible life. The prophetic word of the present time builds on Early Christianity, on the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth and His Sermon on the Mount as well as the Ten Commandments of God through Moses. The teachings and the word of the Universal Spirit are free of traditions and external religions. The Free Spirit, the all-cosmic Being, the life, is not the word of the churches. In this sense, several books offered by the Gabriele Publishing House The Word serve to elucidate the abuse of the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
The universal cosmic teachings of the Free Spirit
The universal cosmic teachings of the Free Spirit encompass the correlations of all life forms and life forces, they explain the meaning and purpose of life on Earth and point out the path to unity and neighborly love among people, as well as with the nature kingdoms and the animal world. The basic rule for life that leads to a peaceful life, which also includes nature and all fellow creatures, is: Do not do to another what you do not want to have done to you – or: Do to others as you would have them do to you.
The concern of us Original Christians is to spread the teaching of love for God and neighbor of Jesus of Nazareth toward people, nature and animals, as it is given anew in our time through the bearer of the word of the Free Spirit, Gabriele.
With the help and guidance of the Free Spirit, every person – insofar as he is willing – can find God in his own inner being, peace with his fellow people and with the nature kingdoms. With Original Christians in the Spirit of Jesus of Nazareth, the motto is: A positive, fulfilled life is called for.

Untruths in Internet
Jesus of Nazareth did not found an external religion, as is presented by the institutions. With authority, He represented the living, free Spirit, whose universal, eternal law is love and freedom. Jesus of Nazareth did not mince His words; with authority, He taught the love for God and neighbor, toward people, nature and animals. Much of what He taught and according to which He also lived, was reversed by the mainstream churches into its opposite. Because we, as followers of Jesus of Nazareth, clarify about the abuse of Christ's name and spread His teaching of freedom, we are frequently defamed as a sect, primarily by the church institutions
Many commentaries that you might find in Internet regarding the spiritual stream of an Original Christian life do not correspond to the facts. To persistently dish up old stale news of decades-long untruths that were spread about the work of the Christ of God, the Universal Life and about us Original Christians – and which we refuted again and again – is a well-known tradition of the church institutions and their adherents. Anyone who lets himself be taken in by this in Internet and believes it and spreads such false information, including insults and slander, is free to do so. We have corrected things for many years. Enough is enough.
Have you ever thought about the word Anti-Christ? It is the one who merely calls himself Christian and who turns the teaching of Jesus of Nazareth about the step-by-step fulfillment of the Ten Commandments of God and the Sermon on the Mount into its opposite. Ultimately, this means: At the end, one sees the fruits – less-good, good or bad fruits. We Original Christians count on the unprejudiced power of judgment of all those who are still capable of thinking independently, of examining and weighing things. Unfortunately, the Internet has gotten so out of control, that in many cases one can talk about a battlefield, where a fight in "for and against" has developed. We will not enter such a territory, where slander, hatred and character assassination develop through speech and counter-speech, however, each one can do as he likes.
We recommend the television programs of the series "The Worldwide Original Christian Stream – Original Christians in the Following of Jesus of Nazareth, of the Free Cosmic Spirit," which are broadcast worldwide by many stations. In addition, there are many other programs on this topic.

I have recently started with a new company (smaller than previous) and my first task is to select an LMS solution that is affordable and that can scale as the company grows. I have been stuck in archaic LMS deals before so i am trying to make the most informed decision. My employee base is 250 ppl, but we will be growing soon so need to make a decision based on 500 to 1000. I really like the simplicity of AO, but it seems to be lacking some of the features that I would like - event calendar, more customizable branding, course catalog, etc.
I have been looking at moodlerooms, Articulate Onlne and Trivantis. Any experience or comments are welcomed. I know that I can modify the AO LMS, but i dont know how flexible it will be.
One solution may be to use the AO LMS in the short run and possible migrate to something else in the future. Any ideas??

The Eldorado girls' basketball team improved to 5-2 on the season with a 52-32 win over Pope County Tuesday night.
Kourtney Phillips led all scorers with 15 points, while Ashton Unthank and Taylor Goodley finished in double digits for the Eagles, tacking on 13 and 10 respectively.
Paige Zertuche chipped in with six points, while Erica Graczyk finished with four, but grabbed a team-high nine rebounds.
Abby Steed and Dresdyn Bramlett came off the bench to finish with two points a piece.
"We came out real strong in the first half, running the floor hard and the big thing was when we caught the ball we were ready shoot," said head cocah Josh Bradley. Eldorado shot 11-of-20 from the floor in the first half and finished at 50 percent for the game.
"I thought Paige did a really good job of Tori Vaughn," Bradley added. "She only had three points at the half and finished with five, so I give a lot of credit to the defensive job by Paige."
Bradley also acknowledged that job Graczyk did on the boards.
"Graczyk really controlled the boards for us, which really allowed us to run the floor and get Pope Co. tired.
"This is the third game in a row for us now where Phillips, Unthank, and Goodley have all been in double digits scoring for us. They have really found a rhythm in the offense and they feed off each other. Overall it was a good effort from everyone team from the first quarter to the fourth."
The Eldorado junior varsity team improved to 3-0 on the year with a 24-11 win, where Jacquelyn Artman led the team in scoring with six points, while Lacy Jo Bradley and Steed each had five points. Riley Duckworth and Bramlett each tacked on three points, while Caitlyn Stafford finished with two.
Eldorado is in action again Thursday when they travel to McLeansboro.

Glenn Hoag confident heading into do-or-die matchIZMIR, Turkey (February 11, 2013) – Head coach Glenn Hoag of Gatineau, Que., is confident his Arkas Izmir squad can turn the tables on Poland's Zaksa Kedzierzyn-Hole on Tuesday in match two of two in the Champions League semifinal.
Zaksa won the opening match in four sets last week. Izmir now must win the second match to force a decisive golden set. Izmir turned that trick in the quarterfinal when they lost the opening match to Belchatow, Poland then roared back to victory in match two and clinched the series winning the golden set.
"It will definitely be a good match," said Hoag, also the head coach of Canada's national men's team. "Two good teams will be playing their best to make it to the final four of this elitist competition. We all share that same goal and dream and so we need to focus on every single rally to accomplish this mission."
The Izmir squad is certainly the favourite of Canadian volleyball fans. Along with Hoag the team also includes national team players Adam Simac of Ottawa, Gord Perrin of Creston, B.C., and Justin Duff of Winnipeg. All three are regulars and Perrin has been one of the biggest stars in the entire tournament.
"The support of our fans will be an extra motivation and we hope to contribute a great volleyball night," said Hoag. Last year, Izmir became the first Turkish squad to make it to the Champions League Final.
More than 6,000 fans are expected for the match at the "Atatürk" Volleyball Hall. The winner of the series advances to the Champions League final March 16-17 in Omsk, Russia.
The match will be carried live at: http://www.laola1.tv/

Goldman Sachs' (GS) commodity strategists — the same folks who contributed to Wall Street's dour opinion on gold this month — just closed out their short on the metal with what they said was a greater than 10% profit:
We have closed our recommendation to short COMEX Gold, as prices moved above the stop at $1,400/toz. We have exited the trade significantly below our original target of $1,450/toz, for a potential gain of 10.4%. The move since initiation was surprisingly rapid, likely exacerbated by the break of well-flagged technical support levels. Our bias is to expect further declines in gold prices on the combination of continued ETF outflows as conviction in holding gold continues to wane as well as our economists' forecast for a reacceleration in US growth later this year.
The firm has a six-month price target of $1,490 for the metal and a forecast for prices to be an inch lower from today's levels, at $1,390, 12 months from now.
Gold's price is down 1% Tuesday morning, to $1,407. iShares Gold Trust (GLD) is off by 1.2%, Sprott Physical Gold Trust (PHYS) is down 1.3%, Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is down 2.7% and Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners (GDXJ) is off 3.2%.

Waite administering the oath of office to James A. Garfield on the east portico of the U.S. Capitol. Photo courtesy of the Library of Congress. PD. Each week leading up to President Obama's second inauguration, which will take place on January 21, 2013, RTT is featuring an inaugural address by a president from the Miller Center's archives. The inaugural address of James Garfield certainly falls into the category of "speeches lost to history." It dovetails nicely with the addresses previously examined in this series. Harrison's inaugural is more known for the fact that it probably killed him than for its content. Buchanan's is overshadowed by a presidency infamous for his inability to prevent (and respond to) the onset of civil war. James Garfield falls into neither of those categories. His speech is lost to history because his presidency is lost to history. His most distinctive attribute is that a former supporter who was mentally ill assassinated him less than a hundred days after his inauguration. This end is all the more unfortunate when considered in the context of his inaugural address, which is surprisingly substantive and inspiring--especially for one of the "forgotten" presidents. Garfield, a man who rose to public office largely due to his renown as hero of the Civil War, began by saying: "We ourselves are witnesses that the Union emerged from the blood and fire of that conflict purified and made stronger for all the beneficent purposes of good government." Garfield believed that the conflict had foreclosed one of the most divisive issues in American political history: The supremacy of the nation and its laws should be no longer a subject of debate. That discussion, which for half a century threatened the existence of the Union, was closed at last in the high court of war by a decree from which there is no appeal--that the Constitution and the laws made in pursuance thereof are and shall continue to be the supreme law of the land, binding alike upon the States and the people. A considerable portion of the speech is dedicated to discussing the plight of newly freed slaves. Garfield said that the enfranchisement and self-sufficiency of freed persons was a force that would "grow greater and bear richer fruit with the coming years." Garfield went on to say: [T]hose who resisted the change should remember that under our institutions there was no middle ground for the negro race between slavery and equal citizenship. There can be no permanent disfranchised peasantry in the United States. Freedom can never yield its fullness of blessings so long as the law or its administration places the smallest obstacle in the pathway of any virtuous citizen. Garfield warned Southern communities seeking to disenfranchise newly freed slaves that their actions would "destroy the government itself." He posed a poignant question: "We may hasten or we may retard, but we can not prevent, the final reconciliation. Is it not possible for us now to make a truce with time by anticipating and accepting its inevitable verdict?" For Garfield, the integration of freed men and women into economic, political, and social life was a fixed course. It was a profound symbol of that "purified," stronger Union. The road to the realization of that Union was (and is) an uneven, windy one. But Garfield's Inaugural recognizes the ultimate direction in a way that is unexpected--and worth remembering.

The estimated reading time for this post is 5 minutes
Living on the road my friend,
Was gonna keep you free and clean
Now you wear your skin like iron,
Your breath as hard as kerosene.
– Townes Van Zandt, "Poncho and Lefty"
Since my sudden and unexpected return from China I've lived between the cracks. I'm not sure when, if ever, I'll return to full strength and how long I should wait to see if I do. A majority of my recovery happened in Chicago and then a trip down south for my birthday seems to have evolved into several months of homeless wandering in Austin. Much as I'd hoped to on day do a stint as a couch surfing troubadour, so far I've been strapped to a software project. In a down economy, I can't complain.
Regardless, I've found myself living this way for quite a few months now and, despite not being able to provide my hosts the joyful songslinging Kai I had hoped to offer, I have learned a few tricks on how to avoid a skin of iron and, most certainly, kerosene breath.
Be Awesome
None of this would be possible without a network of amazing, loving friends. You get those by years of being a genuinely caring person, knowing how to listen sincerely and attentively, and seeking to improve yourself every day. This happened to me by accident and, honestly, involved a fair amount of sacrifice along the way. Definitely worth it.
Acts of Service
Little things make all the difference. I wash every dish I see immediately after eating and try never to leave a house without cleaning even the dishes they've left out. I make beds. I neatly fold sheets I've used. I fix doorknobs. I install screens. I run vacuum cleaners when they're not around. I clean toilets. You can't always do everything, but it adds up.
People don't always notice these touches, but they develop a sense that their houses are cleaner and nicer when you're around. They'll attribute it to your magical inner glow and charm. Don't tell them.
And yes, if you're not used to it, at first it feels like work. Now it's so automatic I enjoy it and I'm humming and running through my next project in my head.
The trick to being a homeless person in America is to not look like a homeless person. Even people on the street know this. The simplest trick is to shave your head and/or make sure you shave or trim up your beard every day (women get a free pass on this). Whatever you do, it just needs to look attended to and "on purpose". It makes a big difference in how people see you. I can tell people over and over that I'm a jobless, homeless, loser without a car and they still fall in love with me. Mostly, it's because I'm still clean and smell good.
Clothes help too, and I've been loving the current scheme. I paid a lot for three really nice shirts and two pairs of pants that dry instantly and look good. I hand wash them in sinks and dry them overnight and they still look new seven months later. Worth the cash. (Details on exactly what I use and how my tiny collection of material things has evolved in a future post.)
Be Invisible
I try my best to be invisible. When someone comes home I want it to look as much as possible like no one's visiting. My secret fantasy is that they'll feel a little sad when there's no sign of me and extra happy to see me when I'm around. I have no idea if this works.
The trick is to keep your bag small, organized, loaded and hidden. In the morning I usually have to pull out my clothes bag and ziplock of toiletries. Sometimes I have to spread things around a little to find what I need. When I'm done, I immediately put everything back into its place in the bag (which is automatic and effortless if everything has an assigned place) and tuck it away behind a couch, behind a door, in a back room etc. If I'm using sheets I fold or roll them and hide them as well. If I can't hide them I try to make them look tidy in neat piles. If you're really good (I do this when shooting interviews in people's homes) you take quick photos on your phone of the space before you arrived and return it to exactly that state each morning. It's more fun if you replace nicknacks at just the right angle and mush pillows exactly as they were.
The Secret House Rules
Everyone has secret rules about exactly how their house should operate. They usually don't know what they are until they're broken. You'll discover most of them by "screwing up". The trick here is to not take it personally, but apologize and make a note. I keep lists. When I leave a house I go through the list: red towel on the left, folded in thirds. Blue towel on right in halves. Window open in bathroom, only halfway, shower curtain open all the way to dry, drain closed to prevent monsters from coming up through the pipes. The AC is on super low, interior door closed to not waste AC. AC off. AC on high. One lamp left on to make it looks like someone's home. Door ajar for cat. Door closed for cat. The laundry soap cup must be left full of water.
Avoid the Kerosene. It's been easy for me, having nearly died from CO, to not do much drinking. I'd already decided to cut alcohol completely when I flew to China to become a superfit superhuman anyway. I've also been lucky enough to know better than to pick up any addictive habits over the years. All around this means that despite my injury I'm still smelling good, waking up at least as well as always, staying healthy and not getting distracted from a larger sense of purpose. Which leads to the penultimate point.
Having passion and purpose will make all of this go. Why are you floating around instead of working a stable job and knowing you have a blender and soy milk in the morning? What are you going to learn, or make, with this time? That's what people are going to want to hear about and support as you visit. And there needs to be progress so that the next time you stop by they can see how far you've come. This is your return on their investment.
Most importantly, respect the gift you are being given by your hosts along the way. You are living on other people's hard work and generosity. Give them something in return: your enthusiasm, mission and joy.
So that's it. Become a better person every day, pack a tiny bag of only what you need and start with a mission you are passionate about. Not a bad plan for life in general, really.

BLM Plans Prescribed Burn in Gold Basin (04-16-13)
GUNNISON, Colo. – The Bureau of Land Management's Gunnison Field Office is planning a prescribed burn in the Gold Basin area as early as Thursday, Apr. 18, or as conditions allow through the end of spring 2013. The 150-acre prescribed burn is located nine miles south of Gunnison off Saguache County Road 38 and is intended to reduce hazardous fuels around the Gold Basin subdivision. Crews will use prescribed fire as conditions allow and anticipate work will be completed within two weeks of initiation.
"Fire managers use prescribed fires to reduce wildfire risk to communities, help restore and maintain ecosystem health, and achieve specific resource objectives such as habitat improvement and fuels reduction," said Chris Barth, Southwest District Fire Mitigation Specialist. "Prescribed fires give fire managers the greatest control over the size and intensity of a fire because they can time and plan the burning conditions under which they ignite, and use ignition techniques that reduce potentially negative impacts."
This prescribed burn has gone through an environmental analysis and has a detailed burn plan. Each burn plan contains specific criteria regarding weather conditions and air quality that must be met to help ensure control of the burn as well as to minimize the potential smoke impacts to local communities. A Smoke Permit, which identifies atmospheric conditions under which the burn can be implemented, has been obtained from the Colorado State Air Pollution Control Division for this project.
Smoke may be visible in the area at times during the prescribed burn. Most of the smoke will lift and dissipate during the warmest part of the day. Some smoke may linger over the area and in drainages as temperatures drop during the evening.
"Fire crews will be onsite during the burn – as well as monitor the burn area following completion of the burn - to ensure public safety," said Mike Davis, BLM Southwest District Fire Management Officer.
With fire season approaching, consider taking a few simple steps to make your property more defensible in the event of a wildfire. For information on the ways to mitigate your risks from wildfire, visit http://www.COwildfire.org.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Americas public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2015, the BLM generated $4.1 billion in receipts from activities occurring on public lands.
