Adam Brinkworth Jr., from Boy Scout Troop 903 in Huntington finished up his Eagle Scout Project at the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers Museum in Huntington. His project took more than 200 hours to complete. His project consisted of many things, including placing decorative rock in front of the museum, constructing a flag pole and putting in cement stairs. Micah Bass and Matt Mecham also helped with the project. To finish the project Brinkworth and Bass raised the Utah state flag and the DUP flag.
Dixie Bass provided a written history of the museum. A white frame building nestled in a mountain canyon, surrounded by tall pines, towering cliffs, wild flowers and flowing river now stands in its own allotted space on a city lot in Huntington.
The original two frame-covered rooms had one cinder block room added to the back for the purpose of providing a show room.
The house was originally Ranger Station #178, erected in 1909 in Bear Canyon, a few miles up Huntington Canyon. John J. Brockbank served as ranger from 1909 to 1917. Later it was used as a summer headquarters by forest rangers from nearby districts.
In 1946 the Manti and LaSal forests were combined and the boundary lines of the forest were changed. The Stuart Ranger Station had been constructed in Nuck Woodward in upper Huntington Canyon. Little Bear now belonged to Emery County. The station no longer in use stood vacant.
In 1934 the Huntington Camp of Daughters of Utah Pioneers was organized with Mable (last name unknown) as captain, Roxie Westover as first vice captain and Louisa W. Johnson as second vice captain and Deane Johnson, as secretary. This took place July 9, 1934 in the old church house with county president Sarah Jensen presiding and conducting.
By 1952, Mildred Johnson became captain and Marie Ungerman and Flora Jensen as vice captains.
The forest rangers in the district advertised in the local paper their desire to sell the building in the canyon. The DUP officers met with the rangers in their Price office and explained why they would like the building and the rangers voted to give the building to the DUP as a relic.
The DUPs had some bonds in the local bank, earned by working together selling pies at all celebrations, food sales, on the street, sandwiches, cake and cocoa at the cemetery on Memorial Day and lunches at the polls on voting days. Also, many beautiful camp quilts they had made and auctioned off. With this money they paid the Wells Moving Company $300 to bring the building to town and put it on the foundation on the lot the DUPs had bought from Vernon and Leora Leamaster.
Some of the husbands and members who donated their time and talents preparing the ground and repairing the house, building a chimney, new roof, new windows, porch, etc were George and Irene Gardner, Milton Johnson, Vic Ungerman, Fred Anderson and Sharon Gardner along with the officers of the camp.
The building retains its original over-all appearance, although it has been reinforced, improved, and added onto. The front room is used as a meeting place in summer. A rag carpet, made from rags donated and sewn together at their meetings and woven by one of the members and her husband, Ruby and Fred Hales, covers one room. Lovely pioneer artifacts donated by people in the area are displayed. The building still retains an air of rustic solitude, quiet and dignified with its entrusted treasures symbolizing Huntington's pioneer heritage.
Dixie Bass, stated donations are always welcome and the DUPs will be doing a fund-raising event at Heritage Days in July. If you would like to set up a tour of the museum you can contact Dixie Bass, 687-2708, Margo Jones, 687-9198 or Maryella Fowler, 687-9519.

Offensive linemen used to be pictured as big, dumb guys who like to push and knock people around.
That stereotype has changed.
Valor Christian coach Rod Sherman has an all-senior starting offensive line this season that could physically match up with many college lines.
Left tackle Alec Ruth is 6-foot-6, 300 pounds, and right tackle Isaiah Holland is 6-5, 310 pounds. They sandwich guards Ryan Cummings (6-5, 295) and Sam Kozan (6-2, 265) and center Cody Bratten (6-3, 280).
Valor's line averages 290 pounds, but Sherman claims it takes both brawn and brains to be a good offensive lineman.
"First, it takes intelligence to be able to diagnose different defensive schemes and be able to adjust on the fly," said Sherman. "I know sometimes in the world there is a stereotype of football players not being intelligent, but that is so not true. Our left tackle is being recruited hard by Ivy League schools and our center scored 35 on his ACT and is looking at schools like MIT."
It takes more than just hitting a blocking sled hard to become a good offensive lineman. A potential All-League offensive lineman these days needs to be versatile, quick, explosive off the ball and a technique master to learn various kinds of blocks.
"Second, you need kids that want to work hard and aren't worried about getting the glory," added Sherman. It's not a glorious position being an offensive lineman, you have to work and be patient.
"Bigger kids, when the ball gets rolled out their freshman year, are not able to play at the level they want because their bodies might be bigger and it might take them a little more time to improve their coordination," he said. "Some of those kids when they get to their junior and senior years, their hard work starts to pay off.
"We are blessed. There are not a ton of teams that can say that both their offensive tackles are being recruited by Pac 12 and Big 12 schools."
Cherry Creek's offensive line doesn't measure up to Valor's in size, as the Bruins put a premium on agility.
"It obviously starts up front on both sides of the ball," said coach Dave Logan. "If you are not good up front on offense or defense, you are going to have a hard time winning.
"This year our biggest offensive linemen will be about 235 to 240 pounds. We ask them to do a lot of different things. So being mobile is as important to us as being really, really big. We ask them to zone block, we'll run different concepts to the running game, power, counter, toss, and we ask them to pass block."
Development takes time.
"There are a lot of things we are asking that take time for guys to feel comfortable with, and sometimes time is a full year," emphasized Logan. "We throw a lot at these kids and we ask a lot of them. Back in the old days of just lining up in a three-point stance, getting off the ball and blocking for a running game, those days have been long gone for a lot of people."
Sherman isn't shy about reminding his offensive linemen about basics.
"They can't get tired of doing the fundamentals," he said. "They have to continue to prefect their craft from pass protection to run blocking. I believe the attention to detail is important in every position, but it is just magnified at the line of scrimmage.
"Oftentimes if you hear a lineman's name called, it is because of something they did not do well. It takes a certain type of kid to have that character and we're blessed to have a group of those kids."
Other area teams also have good high school offensive linemen that have been doing well.
Jamin Smith, Nick Viola and Adam Tate will help provide running lanes for Trey Smith at Douglas County. Brandon Reidemann, Brandon Leahy, Jacob Hunt and Austin Skinner will form part of a solid Chaparral offensive line, while highly recruited Sam Jones, Blake Jacobs and Brendan Chase return at ThunderRidge.
"The offensive line is perhaps the most important group on the field," said Chaparral coach John Vogt. "Typically linemen are hard workers and tough guys. They must run block and pass protect and they are involved in collisions on every play. They must be strong, tough and have athletic ability."
A few of the other top area linemen include Joe Hunsaker and Tyler Trehal at Castle View, Ponderosa's Zach Smith and Cody Wilson, Sean Malloy at Littleton, Anthony Hudak at Legend, Rock Canyon's Jimmy Wanless and Justin Hunter, Connor Cain and Kris Medina of Heritage. Creek's Pete Nielsen, Alex Keys of Highlands Ranch and Lutheran's Alex McClure and Chance Morelock are also among offensive linemen to watch.
"We have three of the five starters back and they bring a lot of continuity and knowledge," said ThunderRidge coach Joe Johnson. "It's the difference of having to think about it, responding and doing it, just trained body acting in a trained way."

All photos/art by Keller + Keller
To determine what a traditional Thanksgiving dinner menu ought to include, I took an informal and unscientific poll among friends and colleagues.
Just about everyone agreed on a juicy turkey with crisp brown skin and stuffing, of course (although one friend claimed that a tough, dry bird was part of his holiday since childhood, so he purposely overcooks his).
With the exception of mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce, though, the "must haves" for side dishes varied, from green-bean casserole to candied yams with marshmallows.
Of course, everyone wanted a delicious and special feast, but not a back-breaker — they wanted time to spend with family and friends. So I pulled out some of my own family's favorite dishes and looked at some seasonal classics and made them all a little less fussy — but still gratifying.
As for the bird itself, my years of turkey cooking have proven to me what we all know: The white breast meat tends to cook first and dry out, while the thighs take a bit longer. Try these remedies to keep the meat moist:
If you're cooking for a crowd, use smaller birds — two 14-pounders, say — and roast one the day before. The next day, take the preroasted bird out of the refrigerator an hour before you put it in the oven, and then heat it at 250 degrees for an hour.
Cover the breast with foil or cheesecloth soaked in chicken or turkey stock. (Remove it during the last 45 minutes of cooking so the skin browns nicely.)
Basting helps, too. I doubt the juices penetrate the skin or add to moistness, but the liquid will evaporate off the skin and cool things down a bit as the bird cooks away.
Brine your bird, or buy a kosher turkey. I rely on brining — I think it delivers a consistently juicy and delicious roast every time.

Skip to comments.Official Calls For Riverside, 12 Other Counties To Secede From California
Posted on 07/02/2011 6:47:55 PM PDT by CharlyFord
click here to read article
I've said many times that the albatross would be lifted from our necks if we could somehow boot San Fran, LA, and San Jose out of the Union.
I am also hoping same.
This I would LOVE to see happen. Cali needs to be split. Reduce the power of LA/Frisco libs and the problem practically solves itself.
Bet the idea would have the support of every red state in congress too.
I have proposed that several states split for years. Western Pennsylvania should secede from Philadelphia and that area, Eastern Washington should secede from Seattle/Tacoma, Eastern Oregon from Portland, and several other states dominated by a large city full of liberals and unions.
Be better if the blue states and red states went their separate ways.
Florida, too. Northern Florida is very different from South Florida. And eastern NC is very different from WNC.
Is it time to cue the Ken Burns Civil War music?
If this happens, I'd seriously considering moving back to SoCal.
The left will prove how indispensable conservatives are to their very existence by ridiculing and fighting this.
Sorry, I hope my legal OCD doesn't put a damper on things!
California's largest economic product is agriculture, and the nine produce only part of the wine production and little else.
In San Bernardino County, everything north of the Cajon Pass
into the new state it's red to light red and the area to the south is a liberal solid blue POS.
I don't know, ever heard of West Virginia?
Counties can secede from a State, but it's very difficult (see Article IV, Section 3, Clause 1).
Jeff Stone is a smarmy politician with a history.
Too bad it would never happen I for one would move to San Diego in a heart beat. I bet big business would want to return to Cal (souther Cal).
Yea! That's something like what I was thinking. Throw in D.C., New York City, the states of Massachusetts and Connecticut and we might be able to work out a deal.
I'm thinking Arizona would throw in Pima County.
Google Jeff Stone and read up on him before you starting praising him.
Start with the county car he let his volunteer sister use.
You have a point, though West Virginia succeeded from a Confederate State that was, at that time, not part of the Union. I suppose it is possible for a State to fracture and agree to become two States, but not for counties to do so.
Good idea. If they succeed in ceceding, some of the other counties will join them—Shasta and Siskiyou Counties, for example. Then they can give the rest of the State to Mexico—if Mexico will take it, which is doubtful—or to China—or, more appropriately, to North Korea. Or they can just shove it into the ocean.
You might add New York City out of New York State. Then take a look at Baltimore in Maryland.
They are all worthy of expulsion. But my philosophy is do it by booting out the least. I think SF, LA and San Jose would be enough. If the GOP could control CA, that would do it.
Who cares about him?
It's his idea I like.
It's a sound one.
You have a point, though West Virginia succeeded from a Confederate State that was, at that time, not part of the Union. I suppose it is possible for a State to fracture and agree to become two States, but not for counties to do so without the consent of the State.
That's what I was eluding to in my other post, the State legislature would have to agree to split, not the counties splitting without the consent of the State. Counties don't exist without the action of the state.
Btw, thanks to Smarmy Jeff Stone activity with his sister..someone introduced a bill that was passed and signed into law.
August 17, 2010 (Sacramento) Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed Assembly bill 1399 into law. The measure, authored by Assemblyman Joel Anderson (R-El Cajon), prohibits local elected officials from allowing family members to use publicly owned vehicles or credit cards.
You should care about him..and his motivation behind this endeavor.
And who he favors in his dealings........
Yes, you should care.
If this happens I'll stay with my family here in So Cal.
If not next year it's off to AZ or Tejas we go.
I was born in Sacramento and and lived here all my 50+ years.
Calif in its present configuartion cannot be fixed.
Put the Capitol in Fresno.
There's lots more and none of them are PC. I'd get in trouble.
The Eastern Shore of MD has long been separatist.
What does Smarmy Jeff Stone do with his slush fund...???
Why of course his sister benefits..
OHHH I like that idea. We could cut off the Hetch Hetchy water and all of the power to LA and SF. Then we would see the liberal babies start to cry.
Two other examples are Vermont being allowed by the New York state government to separate and form its own state, and Massachusetts allowing the Maine district to separate and form the State of Maine.
We have the Colorado water as well.
Not to mention the food!
It's interesting to note, therefore, that the existence of WEST Virginia is a myth. I suggest you hustle to Charleston and let them know, at once...
Go for it! Except you'll need to build a damn big fence to keep all the Mexicans out - the ones who live in L.A. Maybe y'all can just build a long bridge from the Mexican border to the L.A. Coliseum and just let them all pass through.
I might point out that "succeeding" and "being allowed to form a separate state" are two wholly different things. One succeeds on your own, when you must ask a different power to let you go it isn't succession. Compare both of your examples to the Southern State's succeeding from the Union. They didn't ask the Union's permission, they exerted sovereign authority and succeeded. So I appreciate all the West Virginia and Vermont examples but NEITHER of those are a succession.
As I pointed out in the other post: West Virginia did not succeed from a State. They reacted to the confederate state of Virginia and were constitutionally allowed to separate from the Union exile government of Virginia. That isn't succession. Succession is where a sovereign government removes itself from a union, it requires no outside authority or permission.
And yes I realize I can't spell Secede! :-)
The Confederacy was never officially recognized, so legally, it didn't exist. A particularly clever lawyer, one Benjamin Butler, thus saw the loophole, and declared that any slaves "captured" from the Confederate states could be called "contraband," since their labor was of value, and would belong to the Federal government, who could free them at will.
Is there a prohibition clause in the California constitution?
As an aside, one newspaper editor said that "South Carolina is too small to be a country, and too large to be an insane asylum." I suspect these 12 counties are in the same position.
This kind of sophistry is what keeps the legal profession in business.
Periodically, there has been talk from California liberals about dividing into North California and South California to create two liberal states. They simmer about only having two senators for the nation's most populous state.
Don't know the likelihood of any of this.
From Marin county south, those coastal counties is where most of the elite liberal wackos dwell. Once separated, the economic contrast between those counties and the rest of the state would resemble east and west Germany, meaning the coastal counties would decline to poverty. The tax base in those counties are negatively disproportionate to their public economic out lay (legislated obligations).
Jeff Stone fined 16,000 ..blames it on the accountant..someone else isnt getting off so lightly.
Stone also didnt disclose a donation from the voice of Bart Simpson.- who is a Scientologist.
The interest in secession is understandable. First of all, with about 40 million people, California is a very large state. In terms of population, it is about twice the size as the next largest state. Secondly, the state is dominated, but not completely, by one political party, leaving the members of the other party disaffected. And, third, the disaffected citizen of the states live in identifiable regions of the state, such as the proposed South California.
The proposal, however, addresses only the concerns of the disaffected citizens of the southern part of the state. A comprehensive proposal would seek to serve the interests of all the citizens of the state. A logical way to do this would be to split three states, not one, from the present state.
The first, which could be named South California, would include the counties to the south and west of Los Angeles (Imperial, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego counties) (these are not exactly the ones included in Jeff Stones proposal).
The second would be the single county of Los Angeles.
The third would be the counties comprising the metropolitan area of San Francisco (Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Benito, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano and Sonoma).
And, California, still with its capital at Sacramento, would comprise the remaining counties.
The four states would range in population from 8 to 11 million people, making each of them comparable in size to the largest states excepting Texas and Florida. Two of the states (California and South California) would have a mix of urban and rural areas, as most states have. Two would be a new type of state (for the U.S.): metropolitan areas that double as states. (Other federal republics of the world feature metropolitan areas as states.)
In terms of politics, the states of California and South California would be competitive as between Republicans and Democrats. The states of Los Angeles and San Francisco would be so heavily Democratic that it is possible that the two main parties of these states would be the Democrats and a left-wing party such as the Greens.
The important thing, politically, is that there would only be a relatively small number of citizens who would be disaffected by the political choices available to them. Furthermore, within each state, politicians will have to be more pragmatic since the prospect of being subsidized by a larger entity will no longer exist.
Now, here's the kicker: Under the U.S. Constitution, new states can be formed out of old only on the petition of the legislature of the old state and the acceptance of the U.S. Congress. While I doubt that the legislature of California would ever agree to a dismemberment of the state, the people of California can act directly as the legislature through a citizens initiative.

Denim is branching out; from the runway to street photos we are seeing every piece of clothing made out of denim. For its usual pants obligation the wide trouser leg that have some deeming the return of the 70s, gained momentum in New York Fashion Week and continued across the pond this week in London.
The prose of denim is the sheath dress showed by London based designer Osman. No longer is simple synonymous with boring with these artfully draped and tailored creations. Along with the full denim skirt Osman took our favorite fabric to create runway looks that can translate to your wardrobe. The dark denim appeared throughout his collection, under flowing tops in a straight trouser leg with a cuff.
Twenty8Twelve, the brainchild of sisters Sienna and Savannah Miller, showed a collection any girl could see herself in. As in any well-rounded wardrobe denim was a key player. It appeared as loose shorts, overalls, a bibbed top, a full skirt and even a belt. While reviews may be across the board, the retail value of this collection cannot be denied. Indeed, the sisters are opening a third London boutique in October and the line is carried throughout the world.

For your 12 volt 700mA power supply, i would just use a 20 ohm resistor or greater. i would use 100 ohm just to be safe.V=IRP=VI
We're all just wasting our time shooting in the dark without any definitive information about the mystery LED modules.
Quote from: KE7GKP on Aug 14, 2011, 08:03 amWe're all just wasting our time shooting in the dark without any definitive information about the mystery LED modules.Well the OP did link to where he bought them, and from the description given there, it seems a pretty simple wiring job to me, 12vdc to as many modules that you want to string together.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Boat-30-LED-White-Superflux-Light-6-Module-String-/280721768121?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item415c523eb9
So adding a resistor will "draw down" (bad terminology?) the 700mA to under 600mA making it safe for the lights?Will a standard 1/4 100ohm resistor be ok? Also, I just wire it in between power supply & 1st module?

WND: "As WND reported, the White House fired Walpin shortly after the inspector general exposed sexual misconduct and gross misappropriation of federal funds by Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, a prominent Barack Obama supporter."
Congressman Darrell Issa [R]: "Throughout our investigation of Mr. Walpin's removal, the White House has repeatedly communicated that the president was not motivated by inappropriate political reasons. The fact is Gerald Walpin led an aggressive investigation of a political ally of President Obama that successfully recovered taxpayer dollars. While firing an investigator who uncovered the abuse of funds by a political ally might be considered an act of 'political courage' in Chicago politics, for most Americans it raises troubling questions."

Detroit's latest political corruption case ended in mistrial last week for political consultant Sam Riddle.
Attention turns now to the March 10 sentencing of his former boss, ex-Detroit City Council President Monica Conyers.
In contrast to Riddle, Conyers has remained remarkably quiet since her guilty plea on federal bribery charges.
Thankfully, she is off the Detroit council, and Detroit voters seem to be favoring candidates who promise not to embarrass the city by their behavior corrupt or just plain stupid.
But could Monica Conyers' legal troubles lead to a serious primary challenge in August against her husband, U.S. Rep. John Conyers?
The popular, iconic Detroit Democrat is a civil rights legend whose 40-plus year tenure in Congress is exceeded only by his congressional neighbor, U.S. Rep. John Dingell, D-Dearborn.
No one including federal prosecutors has suggested he was aware of his wife's financial dealings. But he or his Washington staff may have been manipulated to support one of her side deals.
Months ago, Riddle told the Detroit Free Press that in early 2007 he paid Monica Conyers half of the $20,000 in consulting fees he received from businessman Jim Papas.
The payments were followed in July 2007 by a letter John Conyers wrote to the Environmental Protection Agency supporting Papas' quest to reopen a controversial deep-well injection site in Romulus in which retiree pension funds had invested.
Were the two events related? Until that letter, Conyers, whose 14th District includes seven Downriver communities, had vigorously opposed the liquid waste operation.

Voter fraud is such a danger now that Darth felt compelled to work on prevention methods. Here is one of his posts:
- - - - -
For those of you who have not read my short booklet on vote fraud and what YOU can do to stop it:
My recent experience as an Election Judge and the new vote fraud scams that I am learning about:
Anybody else wanna join me?
I believe that vote fraud is a SERIOUS problem. Most people think that we cannot do anything about it. Welllll, they have not tried hard enough.
There are many ways that activists can serve, e.g., demonstrations. However, I have found that you can have enormous impact by being involved in the election process.
If I knew then what I know now about the law, I could have put a dem Election Judge in jail back in the 2000 election.
We need prosecutions. We need video. We need media exposure. Think about the impact of that one photo of the Black Panther in Philly with the billy club and how many people have been affected by it.
Please consider joining me. I have recruited 5 new conservative Election Judges and a few Clerks. We need at least 1000 (!!!) more just to cover the precincts in Harris County, TX next November. 1000 more activists could provide enough Poll Watchers to cover 35 Early Voting Sites for 2 weeks, 100 Republican Alternate Judges to cover the democrat dominated precincts where they hold the Election Judge position, 100 or so Republican Election Judges to cover the precincts where Republicans are a majority, but the entire precinct crew is democrat, and finally Poll Watchers to cover the really corrupt democrat precincts where most fraud happens.
God bless you for your hard work and determination. I recorded your efforts in part for the sake of recording the thug-o-cracy, but also maybe more will help you too. — FRegards ....

Ah, there's nothing like a good hike through the woods. The fresh scented smell of the trees, the feel-good accomplishment of getting exercise, and the "wow" factor that the scenery brings.
When I was back home in Minnesota, my family and I got in touch with our nature side (the little of it we all have) and went on a hike through the woods. As we trekked over the rocks, climbed along the paths and hauled up the way-too-many hills that we encountered, we all took in the unfamiliar, yet beautiful, view.
Here's one particular image of my sister-in-law gazing up at something. I can't remember what she was looking at so I'm leaving it up to YOU!
I'll start it off: "I wonder if those people in that plane can see me?"
Now it's your turn!

For Immediate ReleaseDecember 5, 2001
San Diego, CA. - Four projects funded by the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) were selected as finalists for one of law enforcement's most prestigious recognitions, the Herman Goldstein Award.
The award recognizes innovative problem-oriented policing projects that have achieved measurable success in resolving specific and recurring crime, disorder or public safety problems faced by law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve. Initiatives administered by the Buffalo, N.Y., Chula Vista, Calif., South Euclid, Ohio police departments and the Rogers County, Okla. Sheriff's department were chosen from more than 80 local initiatives considered for this year's award, named in honor of University of Wisconsin Law School Professor Emeritus Herman Goldstein. Professor Goldstein is widely recognized as the father of problem-oriented policing, a strategy calling on law enforcement agencies to identify, analyze, respond to, assess, and ultimately prevent the underlying circumstances that result in persistent crime problems.
The finalists were announced today during a conference hosted by the Police Executive Research Forum, a leading organization of progressive police executives from the largest city, county, and state law enforcement agencies nationwide. Each COPS-funded finalist received a grant that supported their work with the community to address persistent crime and disorder problems.
"The inititaves carried out by these agencies have had a significant impact on the quality of life in their communities," said COPS Director Carl R. Peed. "We are proud of their accomplishments and we commend the departments, officers, and community organizations involved for working together so effectively. Moreover, we are glad that COPS grants have had such a positive impact."
In addition to the type of grants received by the four Goldstein Award finalists, the COPS Office provides a variety of other grant and technical assistance resources to state and local law enforcement agencies to advance community policing. A recent study indicates 64% of American law enforcement agencies, serving 86% of the U.S. population, practice community policing. Since 1994, COPS has provided funding to more than 12,400 state and local law enforcement agencies to hire over 114,000 police officers, sherriff's deputies, and state troopers.

Isle of Man
The Isle of Man is situated in the Irish Sea, equidistant from Scotland, Ireland, and England. Among its earliest inhabitants were Celts, and their language, Manx, which is closely related to Irish and Scottish Gaelic, remained the everyday speech of the people until the first half of the 19th century. Manx now has no native speakers. Norse (Viking) invasions began about 800, and the island was a dependency of Norway until 1266. During this period the Isle of Man came under a Scandinavian system of government that has remained practically unchanged ever since. The island entered the control of England in 1341. After allowing a succession of feudal lords to rule the island, the British parliament purchased sovereignty over the island in 1765. The Isle of Man continues to be administered according to its own laws by a government composed of the lieutenant governor, a legislative council, and a House of Keys, one of the most ancient legislative assemblies in the world.

Hi Ron,
Random Coachella goer here. I have a question for you! I have been attending Coachella since 99, I just don't post on the boards. This year, for the first time, my partner and I are attending Bonnaroo. Yay.
My main question is about camping. My partner does not camp, as he is a big princess. Also, I am disabled, and camping will add a little extra challenge to my already excitingly painful fest experience (It doesn't stop me, but hey less pain is good).
Bonnaroo is a camping festival. I feel silly going and not doing it all the way. We actually did reserve a hotel, just in case. But my question is, does it even make sense to stay in a hotel? Is this even feasible? I know you camp, but would love to hear any info you have about the options in terms of getting in and out of the fest. Or just the camping scene in general.
I checked the roo boards for info, but I thought it anybody could offer any words of wisdom, it would be you.
Thank you for your time!

I was super confused by this chapter, whats up with the red beam of light? Or did I just forget to read something? It seemed like lots of jumping around from panel to panel too, first their fighting then their talking then surprise fighting then bijuu-dama all of a sudden in a flash then boom... What the crap did i miss lol
As for the Bijuu Dama at the end, we didn't get to see the events leading up to that, because the POV in the chapter was primarily centered around Kakashi, Obito, and the Naruto that was with them. However, there was another Naruto working off-screen with Bee / presumably Guy to prepare to attack the Mazou at the end while Madara was down for the count (due to Guy's Afternoon Tiger from last chapter, which was still exploding at the start of this chapter).
It's a lot to follow, but I think it was all pretty straight forward... the only thing that surprised me was the Bijuu Dama at the end, since it seemed like a really big event to suddenly be brought into, but I liked it. It'd seem strange if the Naruto/Bee combo was doing less than the Naruto/Kakashi combo, especially considering Madara/the Juubi are bigger threats right now than Obito. I really enjoyed the pacing all around. :)
It's amazing to me that every sharingan karuma has seen has given him very potent reasons or reminders for despising the doujutsu and its wielders yet this chapter we find him using his power with the clear intention to put a sharingan to use at full power! Very significant play on that relationship between 9 tails and sharingan that is quite rich if you recall the kyubi's words and other flashbacks illustrating madara/tobi/sasuke encountering him. It demonstrated this chapter that as "maki" , naruto spun it the other direction :)
Also, the mokuton binding around bee was obito's right? I am confused as to why it faltered.
1) did kakashi weaken it with the earth dog wall that has sealing properties?
2) did kakashi's raikiri disrupt the earth component of obito's mokuton?
3) was kakashi responsible in any way?
3a) was his blood from last chapter intentionally used to disrupt mokuton roots as he let himself bleed into the ground?
4) is obito's existential turmoil and epic denial AND/OR early phases of changing heart eroding his strength and will to carry on with the evil plot?
5) does it have something to do with any element of the shield tower, the mazou transformation and the emerging 10 tails? The 10 tails is shown clearly to be emerging from the ground. If from the ground then many possible reasons arise as to obito's or madara's mokuton abilities being part of the process to raise the 10 tails from the ground.
The 10 tails. The state of it supposedly weakened, incomplete or someway "lesser" is communicated possibly by its introduction being of its only partial presence above the earth. It also is obviously dramatic and great impact to treat such looming forces with an "emerging " posture but here it can go either or both ways. I bet that it will remain partially submerged and kishi will raise it some more each time it gets more of it's power back (R.I.P. bee).
I think the usual rules of tailed beasts, edo tensei, and rinnegan wont always apply here because all 3 elements are challenged by the sheer fact their "exception to rule" forms are present together at once! For instance, will edo tensei prevent madara from playing the role he wished this stage of plan because conventional wisdom suggests edo zombies can't be jinchuuriki? Why would madara even risk it by staying in edo form? He knows Yin and Yang tech, the uchiha kinjutsus, and so6p techs.. so getting out of jail could be quite simple. If madara can control aspects of his own edo contract then why believe he doesn't have even more control, for instance, through loopholes feeding his inexhaustible chakra to his rinnegan and using rinnei tensei to transfer his now unbound by contract soul wherever and however he wishes? Seems once long ago certain principles and facts from early manga will be turned on head with this epic triangle playing out.
P.s. kakashi is not killing obito simply by the fact he lives him but also because he is smart enough to know he needs him to tip the fight into good guy's favor. We have 3 panels from the past 2 chapters now that show talk no jutsu is slowly working its way into obito's conscience. Proof is that obito betrayed his own words now. He always claimed he no longer cares, the world doesn't matter because the new one he creates will be free of the problems plaguing the current one. We agree he operated with that mentality, right? Now we see him taking pauses to reflect when kakashi or naruto speak, then immediately afterwards begins to recite his mantra for reassurance. That behavior is classic to cases of denial or fear of truth. He now reacts to mentionings of rin or the past with extreme emotional outbursts! Obito is now totally emotional, he does care. Emotion is a key ingredient for talk no jutsu to succeed and obito looks to have repressed his for do long he craves the talk no jutsu whether he knows it or not. He is clearly shaken and slowly coming to terms with reality and recognizing his dream for the nightmare it is. Kakashi and obito are gunna have each others backs here in a few chapters from now, kakashi is cleverly pressing all the right buttons and with extreme exhaustion could see the way to defeat tobi and rescue obito. Reading all those make out tactics books really paid off :0
I looked in the wiki and the only canon users so far have been Kakashi and Naruto. In the Rock Lee spin off, Kakashi's dad is said to have used it, but I wouldn't really call that canon. The wiki could be wrong of course, but I was only joking about Gai being the creator.
hmmm I wonder if each of the Juubi's tomoe in it's eye is somehow related to the 9 bijuu that are descended from it's chakra.
It would be wonderful if the Juubi is beyond Madara's ability to control with his Sharingan, although I seriously doubt that this would happen.
If Madara were unable to control the Juubi this would completely change the complexion and direction of the war/Manga. Suddenly, Madara won't be the most feared thing anymore, it would be the Juubi. Tobi and Madara were able to control the Geddou Mazou because they had Hasirama's power, but would that work on the Juubi, granted that this is an incomplete Juubi.
One would think that Sharingan Genjutsu/Hypnotic control should not work on the Juubi since it itself is the source of the Sharingan. It thus brings up the question of exctly how did the SO6P stop the Juubi in the first place. I'd like to see Kishi do a mini10 chapter series on the SO6P himself, at some point.
I'd surmise that Hashirama's power is a watered down version of SO6P's power although it has not yet been stated that the SO6P ever used Mokuton.
@Knife Eater: Bee broke out of Madara's Mokuton from last chapter, due to Madara being taken out by Guy. The only Mokuton Obito used in this fight was against Naruto, who likewise broke free when he headbutted Obito. In other words, best counter to Mokuton is probably to attack the Mokuton user and break their connection to the binding branches, as doing so reverts the branches to more or less ordinary wood. At least in this version of the Mokuton.
@Paulbee: The Mokuton is Hashirama's means of channeling his pure life force into a living, physical technique. He creates life. It can also, seemingly, absorb life force from Bijuu in order to grow (or, in Zetsu's case, from other shinobi). Basically, it shows a mastery over Life Force / physical energies similar to the Sharingan's mastery over Mental energies. I would guess the SO6P had an equal/stronger way of achieving this, but that it could have been anything, and not necessarily restricted to plants.
The Rinnegan could combine these aspects to create a physical conduit for binding one's physical/mental energies, namely those black rods / chakra chains we've seen used to control Bijuu. They emit chains similar to Kushina's own power, which to me demonstrates a link between her ability (which I'd associate with her unique chakra as practically a Kekkei Genkai) and the SO6P/Rinnegan ability used by Obito.
The SO6P was also a master of ultimate sealing techniques, which probably played the biggest role. He merely had to weaken the Juubi enough to seal it (unless his Sealing Jutsu is the Narutoverse equivalent of a Master Ball).

Chris Tanev is still unsigned, and that's okay
Cam Charron
July 31 2013 02:43PM
Chris Tanev is not signed yet to a National Hockey League contract. That is okay. Several players are not signed to National Hockey League contracts that will play hockey games this season, and many of them are more valuable than Chris Tanev. Notable unsigned restricted free agent defencemen are Alex Pietrangelo, Jared Cowen, Cody Franson and T.J. Brodie.
Each defenceman has their own strengths and own weaknesses. The point of this post is not to attempt to guesstimate just what Tanev will make on the open market, but just to point out just how little leverage Tanev has in these negotiations.
Restricted Free Agents and you
It's part of the process dating back to as far as I can remember. Players without contracts, or free agents, are generally placed into several different categories, but fall into three basic ones. Drafted players, who may only negotiate with the club that has him on its reserve list, Restricted Free Agents, who can negotiate with any team, but the team that owns his rights has the right of first refusal, and Unrestricted Free Agents, who are free to negotiate with any team.
(If you want to follow along, here's a link to the collective bargaining agreement)
Since Tanev was passed over by every team in the 2008 draft in favour of future superstars like Yann Sauve, Prabh Rai, Mats Froshaug and Morgan Clark, he was eligible to enter the 2009 draft. But he wasn't, passed over again for future superstars Anton Rodin, Kevin Connauton, Jer—you get the picture.
Before he could enter the 2010 draft, Tanev signed a contract with the Vancouver Canucks, ending his NCAA career at the Rochester Institute of Technology because the NCAA doesn't allow professional players to play sports against amateurs. Since Tanev was less than 21 when he signed his first contract, he was subject to a three-year entry-level deal.
That ELC covered the 2010-2011, 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 seasons. Now it has expired.
Now, to keep Tanev on the team's reserve list, the Canucks had to offer Tanev a "qualifying offer", the effects of which appears to have confused a few people. Tanev let his qualifying offer expire, which does not mean that Tanev is an unrestricted free agent. Not at all. A qualifying offer acts as a mandatory one-year offer that results in a raise for players making below $1-million. Per Article 10.2, since Tanev made between $660K and $1-million on his entry-level deal, his qualifying offer was $1-million.
Under the new collective bargaining agreement, (and this isn't a change from the old one), since Chris Tanev was signed to his first entry-level deal as a "hockey 20" (he turned 20 between September 16, 2010 and September 15, 2011) he needs four years of professional experience to have arbitration rights, per Article 12.1. He has only three years.
The next wrinkle is unrestricted free agency years. To reach unrestricted free agency, where players make more money because the player is on the open market, a player must have played seven professional seasons or be 27 years old on June 30. That's still four years away for Tanev.
That means that the only leverage that Tanev could possibly have over the Canucks, if they see him as a core but not critical piece, is off the hope that another team signs Tanev to a contract, or an offer sheet, forcing the Canucks to either match or take draft picks as compensation. In practice, offer sheets don't happen nearly as much as they should.
To summarize:
- Tanev is still on the Canucks' reserve list
- The Canucks can match any offer
- Tanev has no arbitration rights
He has very little leverage. In practice, players that hit RFA status for the first time are either awarded long-term contracts or "bridge contracts" that take them to another year of restricted free agency, and arbitration rights.
When a player's value is lower than you expect it to be over the next several years, a long-term contract would be preferable to a bridge contract. A bridge contract acts as a "prove it" contract, that can be more expensive since the player has more leverage once he hits arbitration status.
You may hear the term "buying up UFA years" which is exactly that. Since a player can make more on unrestricted free agency, teams must pay a premium to buy those years of the contract. If a player is two years closer to his UFA years, even a three-year contract will end up buying out at least one year of unrestricted free agency.
The Canucks would need to sign Tanev to at least a five-year deal to buy up any UFA years. Given Tanev's inexperience in both a small number of games played in his career plus his usage which sees him play against soft competition, that's probably not in the cards for them. A long-term contract is a better fit to a player like Roman Josi or P.K. Subban, or any player whose progression is evident but he's "not quite there" in terms of value. (Hilariously, Subban won a Norris Trophy in the first year of his bridge contract, and will probably cost way more his second time through the RFA process than if the Canadiens had bought a bunch of years at the start)
That's not Tanev. Tanev has a few distinct talents: he's a rock solid third pairing player in terms of intelligence and he doesn't take very many penalties, but he's stuck in a bottom pairing role for the next few seasons. With Frankie Corrado and Yannick Weber under contract, the Canucks have two more right-shooting defencemen that could play the third pairing, possibly as well as Tanev.
My irrational attachment to Tanev is well-documented, but part of the thing I like about him is that he can be such an effective player for very cheap. He represented a player coming out of college hockey with no discernible talents, just a guy with a good head on his shoulders that could push play in the right direction. But playing for cheap is the main thing. Aaron Rome was much more digestible at $750K than at $1.5-million, and there's a number the Canucks have in mind for Tanev that makes sense considering he's a third-pairing player.
Even if he improves, the team should be in no rush to sign him. It's a cap crunch year, the first time the salary cap has gone down, so saving a couple of hundred thousand dollars means a lot. Signing him so that the roster can be set on July 31st shouldn't be the way to do business.
As for comparable players, both myself and Thomas Drance found players similar to Tanev, oddly enough, both found on the Minnesota Wild. Marco Scandella signed a $1.025-million two-year deal after his ELC expired, while Jared Spurgeon is making just under $2.7-million. That's a significant gap, and probably indicative of the fact it's real tough to properly value non-offensive defencemen.
Nothing has really changed since Harrison Mooney wrote something about Tanev's RFA negotiations back on July 18th. It would be more worrying if Tanev had some leverage to work with, of if there was the possibility a team would sign him to an offer sheet. The Canucks will eventually sign him to a bridge contract, and it will probably be a number that works for them more than it will for Tanev.
I've always thought the arbitration system MLB uses would be something both NHL GMs and the NHLPA would favour over the current system.
Scrapping restricted free agency but allowing players to enter arbitration immediately after their ELC would end these stalemates in a quicker fashion.
Second contracts would be more manageable for GMs and offer sheets would cease to exist.
The ability to realistically go year to year with players would also be beneficial to GMs. That doesn't really happen in the NHL for notable players at least.
The PA would presumably also support this because suppressing salaries during a player's team controlled years would leave more money for players with enough seniority to reach free agency.
And I assume the PA is like any other union and wants seniority to be (over)compensated.

Thanks for laying this out so clearly.
Been my thinking all along that it will be a 2 year bridge deal against a reasonable cap hit. Then in 2 years time, he can get paid (for some UFA years as well! See I just learned that!).
I hope he gets a shot at being on the 2nd D pairing with Elder. He seems like the cool head that could benefit Edler, yet he would also benefit from playing against stiffer competition. That would leave Garrison to play 3rd pairing with Weber, which is not ideal, unless the minutes between 2D and 3D are split more evenly. Also, Garrison will probably move up quite a bit as well as see deployment on the PP.
Ah, looking forward to seeing what will happen under Torts. Until maybe not if it all turns into a circus… But first, get Tanev signed!
Tanev has to be realistic about where he is in terms of his hockey development. There is a BIG difference between being a major surprise and a top paid D man. Tanev is solid but under sized for the amount of punishment he takes in the corners. The Canucks can't give a guy that didn't finish the season a long term deal. What he does well is ,are other players better. His solid intelligent play especially getting the pick out of the zone quickly made even Ballard a better player. I believe having Edler play with Tanev will give Ed the confidence to play a bolder game like the end to end rush he pulled off 2 years ago against the Sharks. That ability to improve other players games is tough to quantify is stats like assists. He needs to improve his strength, his shot for sure and force the team over the next few years to give him a long term contract. I hope he does both improves and gets the contract.
