After being outscored 28-2 in their previous three games, the Spartans exploded for 21 runs when they most needed them.
The region win over North Sanpete gave Emery an even region record at 3-3 and an overall record of 8-8. Emery is solidly in third in the region with the biggest two games coming up this week.
Emery plays Lehi at Spartan Field Tuesday and then the Spartans travel to Carbon on Friday. The Pioneers and Dinos are tied for first in region with 5-1 records. If the Spartans are to move up in the region standings, they have to win these two games.
Travis Barnett led the Spartans against Grantsville and held the Cowboys to just one hit while recording 10 strikeouts. The Spartans overcame four errors and Jeff Fielder racked up two doubles as Emery dominated the game.
North Sanpete jumped on the Spartans early, getting a run on a sacrifice fly and another on a poor throw, before a strikeout and a groundout got Emery out of the inning.
Emery responded in its half of the inning.
A base hit by Kadin Wilson was followed by a walk by Garrett Swenson. Bowie Jeffs brought both of them home with a single. Fielder kept the rally alive with a base hit and Kent Stilson loaded the bases when he was hit by a pitch.
A fielder's choice brought home Jeffs and a double steal brought home Fielder when he dove head first over the catcher.
Chandler Pearson finished the scoring for Emery when Barnett brought him home on a single.
The Spartans led 5-2 and Stilson took control of the game from the pitcher's mound. No other Hawk got past second base the rest of the game.
Emery batted around again in the second and got four more runs to put the game out of reach. It was just a matter of time until the Spartans scored enough runs to inflict the 10-run mercy rule.
With Emery's bats back to life and Barnett and Stilson pitching well, the Spartans' games this week should be pretty exciting. The games start at 3:30 p.m.

"The Hoodie: Comments Across America"
Is Not Available At This Time.
Commentary and Opinions on The Hoodie
Please enter your comments below.
Now that the economy is on the upswing, the GOP is frantically looking for wedge issues to try and destroy America. And WBEN is happy to be a willing stooge in service to their mendacity.
open your eyes
What can any of you "hooded" lawmakers or news organizations (WBEN) tell me about Bob and Nancy Strait of North Tulsa, OK? You know the 90 yr old husband and 85 yr old wife, together for 65 yrs. Victims of a home invasion - Nancy assulted and RAPED,later died and Bob shot in the face with a BB gun - assailant got away with $200, some jewelry and the couple's Dodge Neon - come on you photo op lawmakers must have a way to show support for this couple. Of course you don't know or care about the Strait's - they're white and the scumbag assailant is a 20 yr BLACK piece of you know what. Open your eyes and quit being so one sided in your support. Go find a camera in your stupid hood.
Let the Facts tell the story
So now that the facts are coming out that the 17 year old attacked Mr Zimmerman...approached him and jumped him from behind and broke his nose and several indepentant witnesses confirmed this...are we going to have a support march for him?..Let the facts speak for themselves...Black or white should not matter...Where is the outrage and protests about the white college student shot and killed by 3 black men this weekend in Mississippi?...double standard...guess that is ok to do...we wont hear from Al Sharpton on that will we.
Desparation is a democrat stooge
THE ECONOMY IS ON THE UPSWING? what are you smokin?
Once again
We see that people who get their information from right wing sources are woefully ignorant and uninformed. The GOP needs a dumb electorate to get any votes; the bigotry and racism you see on display here plays right into their hands.
Some random thoughts.....
If you're trying to prove that just because someone is wearing a hoodie, it doesn't mean they're a crook, then you're defeating the purpose by allowing POLITCIANS to wear them into the Senate.... So the Black Panthers have put a bounty on Zimmerman's head, huh? This reminds me of when the Muslim world declared a fatwa on author Salman Rushdie. Is this the New American Fatwa? Another thing that puzzles me...in this age of Big Brother, when there are cameras EVERYWHERE, why, especially in a gated community, is there no surveillance tape of what happened between Zimmerman and Martin? Just curious....
Black Panthers Bounty vs KKK
Can you imagine the public outrage if the KKK did what the Black Panthers did and put a bounty out on the 3 black men that shot and killed a white student at Mississippi State Univ on Sat...Funny how that works isnt it.
White Hoodie
If a bunch of white guys got together and wore white hoodies, would the black community think we're part of the kkk?
Pointed white hoodie?
I guess if our congressmen walked into session wearing a pointed white hoodie, that would be OK too......
When will Schumer wear one?
With all the hoopla surrounding this I am surprised that Charles Schumer has not taken to wearing a hoodie to get some more camera time. Does Hickey Freeman make a hoodie?
boogie hoodie
ban hoodies.

12) Which country music legend recently had horrible looking plastic surgery on her face, which worried her PR team at first because they thought she had a stroke?
Dolly Parton
Oh no! 🙁
Don't worry, Dolly, we will always love you!ReplyCancel
Is this the car accident cancelation that no one in Nashville got any photos of?? She had to cancel a big concert . Performance because of it.ReplyCancel
Dolly does look kinda weird and I saw her on a list of celebrities who have had too much plastic surgery.ReplyCancel
Oh Dolly.ReplyCancel
She looked "fine" at Glasto (for someone who readily admits surgery…) when could this have been?
LONG LIVE DOLLYReplyCancel
oh good grief dolly, leave perfection ALONE, dam u!
((shakes fist))ReplyCancel
To be fair here, I understand the " stroke" comment sadly enough, on her close up pics she looks wonky. She doesn't look 68, no way, no how, but she doesn't look natural anymore, she has that plastic look. She would get criticised if she looked her age, big time, but I genuinely don't think this waxy doll like look is better. I think there sadly comes a time when the surgery stops working, you become simply too old. Other celebs are going to get there as well, madonna being one, she's on the edge right now, and in ten years time, I don't think she will stop, I think she's gonna jump right off like dolly and joan. It will also be interesting to see how Angelina fares over the next twenty years. Her facial fillers are extreme now, she still looks beautiful, but it will be interesting to see how far she goes.ReplyCancel
In other plastic country singer surgery news…
Anyone else see those commercials (insurance, I think) with Kenny Rogers? He FINALLY is looking somewhat like himself circa 1998 (if he never had surgery). Either that shitty plastic surgery he had has finally loosened up or he went and paid a mint to fixed the debauchery of the old surgery!
Wayne Newton was just on TV the other day and he looks like he's in a wind tunnel. He's as nice as he can be but his mouth makes me think of when kids pull the edges back and stick out their tongue. It makes me sad that these people don't know when to stop.ReplyCancel
Welcome to your future, Madonna.ReplyCancel
poor Dolly! she is so awesome,creative and talented. it does seem that there is a limit to what the face and nerves can take, I think it's a huge risk to keep fucking around with your face like that, stretching plumbing, injecting,sewing. a teeny bit may be fine for some but for heaven's sake you're spinning a roulette wheel every time and it may not work out. just look old, be a good example, it's ok to be old! Dolly is awesome though and already gorgeous.ReplyCancel

Deep Cuts Could Reshape California
By JENNIFER STEINHAUER May 30, 2009
LOS ANGELES Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger did not get the election results he sought. Now he seems determined to show California voters the consequences.
Rich Pedroncelli/Associated Press
In a special election on May 19, voters rejected a batch of measures on increasing taxes, borrowing funds and reapportioning state money that were designed to close a multibillion-dollar budget gap.
The cuts Mr. Schwarzenegger has proposed to make up the difference, if enacted by the Legislature, would turn California into a place that in some ways would be unrecognizable in modern America: poor children would have no health insurance, prisoners would be released by the thousands and state parks would be closed.
Nearly all of the billions of dollars in cuts the administration has proposed would affect programs for poor Californians, although prisons and schools would take hits, as well.
Government doesnt provide services to rich people, Mike Genest, the states finance director, said on a conference call with reporters on Friday. It doesnt even really provide services to the middle class. He added: You have to cut where the money is.
In less than two weeks, the administration has gone from warning residents that a vote against the budget measures would send the state some $24 billion in the red into utter turmoil to sanguine acceptance that the people have spoken and that the government must move on.
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
Scare tactics?
Maybe Mr. Shriever-Kennedy-Schwarzenegger will simply cut Los Angeles and San Francisco loose?
But we can pay for all the illegals in the state ... impeach Arnooold NOW. AND NO MORE RINOS
"The question is will Kay Bailey Hutchinson run for queen???"
You mean...she isn't??????
Still, no mention of ILLEGALS using up our tax dollars.
The welfare state in a nutshell.
impeach = recall ... someone else was also on my mind ...
Recuerde el Alamo.
Thanks for hipping me to that, dude.
Yes it does provide services to the rich and middle class. It keeps them safe by putting criminals in prison and provides state parks for their recreation.
Of course, the first services to be taken away are always "services to the blind and the poor, libraries, art museums and fire and police protection. There, you bully citizen voters, take that!
Why not cut State salaries by 15 % and cut the number of beauracrats ? The terminator is a wimp
What the hell is Barack the Kenyan doing with his new 61 cents per pack cigarette tax? "Poor children" should have more "health insurance" than you can shake a stick at. In this state, Arizona and the Feds are now getting 1.20 per pack for Communist healthcare for "the children."
I think that's a map of the great United States of Texas.
Liberals got California into this mess. Let them suffer politically the consequences.
Check that! It should read $1.41 per pack.
Just deport the illegals back to where they came from. A lot of your problem would be solved; especially since Mexico has decided to give free health care.
The CA legislature is impossibly left-wing with hundreds of legislative staff many of whom draw six-figure incomes. The Speaker (a former South LA community activist) has over 200 staff members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just check her website Karen Bass and every socialist group from NARAL to Planned Parenthood to GLBT have their links.
I am with you, the silence is stunning.
Government to citizen: Take that! Don't you realize how important we are
Is it called Aztlan?
Just denying services to them will help get them to leave. If we refuse to stop the handouts they will never have incentive to go back home.
yes, a good start is the cut anyone working for government with 6 figures salary, then reduce it to 5, then to 4. Anyone working for government should not be there to get rich
As for fire protection for this state, it is needed ONLY because we have environmentalists who do not allow clear cutting or anything remotely resembling common sense when it comes to true "fire protection". They would rather SPEND money on firefighters when the inevitable happens, not clear cut or remove a precious tree!!!
I hope so.
At this point, California may as well pull over, hand the keys to Mexico, and let them drive.
I grew up in Southern California. While I miss it, I'll never go back. The place is consuming itself. Maybe the land was just always meant to be a poorly administered backwater of Mexico.
They can cut wherever they want to.
But leave the citizens labor ALONE!
We won't be slaves to lousy, incompetent, left-wing politicians in Sacramento.
The public sector needs cutbacks.
They can play their little "Fine, we'll cut things that will hurt you..." game all they want.
Bring it on, commies!
My friend, there are at least a thousand Boards, Commissions, Directories and Committies that could be done away with. Most, well some anyway are the same as the Federals. I can name two right now, CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION, CAL-OSHA. (Sorry for the rant). If someone could just come up with the total cost of each of these items and present them then we all could see where the cuts should be made.
Semper Fi, and the very best to you and yours.
The end of socialistic programs is a good thing.
Why all the stressing by this media person?
100% on point. Boards, Commissions, Committees are the vehicles of choice for Socialism
No jobs too.
Dear Boucheau!
The Speaker's Staff has over 200 employees with all the perks and power. There are scores of boards, commissions and committees funded either by general revenues or by dues from members. All this has to go. But CA does not need a bicameral full-time legislature. A part-time unicameral legislature and the scrapping of nearly all boards, panels and committees is a good start.
Proving once again - in dramatic format - that you just cannot simply give people houses, healthcare, and money.
No, the "rich people" and the "middle class" are just the people who pay for everything.
Not at all. The problem for Arnold and the rats is that the "rich people" and the "middle class" who pay all the taxes aren't the slightest bit scared. Why should they be?
Government doesnt provide services to rich people, Mike Genest, the states finance director, said on a conference call with reporters on Friday. It doesnt even really provide services to the middle class. He added: You have to cut where the money is.
My guess.. No.
You do not want to miss this.
Government doesnt provide services to rich people, Mike Genest, the states finance director, said on a conference call with reporters on Friday. It doesnt even really provide services to the middle class. He added: You have to cut where the money is.
The root problem with CA, is the pay and retirement packages of Government workers, at all levels. They have stolen the wealth of productive Californians and now will take it out on the poor.
California must not cut important "green" programs that will save the world from "global warming", and certainly, embryonic stem cell research MUST continue until it finally yields something useful.
Yep! Except it should be "2020" instead of 2080.
Actually, someone submitted a bill to limit the pay for the members of all of those useless boards to just the hours actually worked. Of course, most of those board members are either termed-out legislators or their family members. So the brave souls in the Assembly Appropriations Committee have shelved the bill. This accomplishes two things - one, the board members still get their $100k salaries for meeting once a month and two, no one in the legislature actually has to be seen voting to continue this wasteful practice. Some great courage they have...
Eventually the Feds, perhaps the Obamanation administration, is going to extend this paradigm to social security. It will only be for the poor.
Welfare and freebies are going to have to go.
Six-figure saleries are very common for state (and city) workers in Calif. When govt workers retire, they can get a pension that is something like 98% of their prior salary PLUS they can go back to work and essentially get a double salary.
The state needs to go bankrupt.
High level CA officials have told me that this budget was made to alarm people. It is pure manipulation by threatening the 2/3 federal subsidy on child healthcare, and closing all state parks.
The journalist is falling for the manipulation, hook and line.

It might be that just about all of his techniques light up Sanji's feet now. I'm more curious about why the island doesn't register with the compass. Also, just how many freaking abandoned labs does Vegapunk have?
Perona in the Cover,Awesome....(diessss)!!!

I was going to mention Luffy, but Luffy's use of Gear 2 is always well justified (Pacifista. Hordy. Vander Decken. Wadatsumi, because he was huge). His only wasteful use of it was using it to take out Hammond and that other fish when Sanji almost erected himself to death :-/
Not to derail the chapter discussion too much, but it'd be nice to just see some basic strikes strong enough to take out fodder. Both Franky and Chopper did it just now.

wow, now I am a little understand why the island became like one part ice and one part is on fire. I only have to say the two minrals in one piece are so awesome! If luffy fight to them, he will be lose undoubtly.
I fixed the title.
Pretty decent chapter.
Now after the time skip how can Oda show us that Sanji did improve his kicking power? We can easily tell that Zoro slashing ability improved ten folds as he can now use a 360 pound cannon attack using only one sword but not on Sanji as his opponent gets to fly just the same. As I see it, Oda decided that flaming kicks is just now a normal attack for Sanji. Just like the 360 pound (180 pound pre time skip) cannon to Zoro which was one of his main techniques before. This is to show his improvement and not just for show.
Now if Diable is just a normal attack now then what will be Sanji's main techniques? Well he wanted to get 99 recipes (100 if we include Ivankov) from Kamabakka kingdom. That's a hundred new techniques. If Sanji's leg is the oven and now he has all the recipe he needs... can you smell what's cookin?

If you like mangas with a good balance of action, drama, gore, politics, psychology and realism, then you're in for a treat. Shingeki no Kyojin's very dark mood is somehow balanced with it's very shounen-like main character. The art isn't that refined but this seem to add to the mood of the story. It matches the sad and tragic feel of the manga. The feeling I had while reading this manga is similar to watching World War II movies and series.
Synopsis: Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly exterminated by giants. Giants are typically several stories tall, seem to have no intelligence, devour human beings and, worst of all, seem to do it for the pleasure rather than as a food source. A small percentage of humanity survived by walling themselves in a city protected by extremely high walls, even taller than the biggest of giants. Flash forward to the present and the city has not seen a giant in over 100 years. Teenage boy Elen and his foster sister Mikasa witness something horrific as the city walls are destroyed by a super giant that appears out of thin air. As the smaller giants flood the city, the two kids watch in horror as their mother is eaten alive. Elen vows that he will murder every single giant and take revenge for all of mankind. Nominated for the 4th Manga Taisho Awards (2011).
This manga won the Kodansha Manga Award this year.

I hope you enjoy it!

Day: November 1, 2012
Glad-hearted continually?
Good evening, dear friends, Today has been a rough day, physically, for me. I woke up very early and began praying for all the prayer requests I could think of…I'm not sure why I didn't think of this earlier! I do not ponder my own circumstances when I focus on the King and the concerns that have been shared with me. I am deeply honored to have someone divulge their requests. I then turn them over to my God of the Angel Armies. I have been so blessed by this song, I'm including it again. 🙂
Prayer is so powerful. We have such power to stand behind each word we utter in prayers to our loving God. Can you grasp it? You are stressed about your circumstances, your finances, your …. and someone shares their request with you and all of a sudden the focus is off yourself!! Hold onto the promises of God and pray them back to Him.
"Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. Withstand him; be firm in faith [against his onset—rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined], knowing that the same (identical) sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood (the whole body of Christians) throughout the world." 1 Peter 5:8-9 AMP
Friends, if you are praying on behalf of others and also for your own needs..what room can Satan have if you are in the throne room of God? If you are praying for the people in your life that drive crazy, steer yourself to the King. Lift up the election. Lift up the President. The leaders of our country. Your church. Your pastor, his wife..the persecuted church. In this season I am in, I finally understand this idea that Paul shares:
Be happy [in your faith] and rejoice and be glad-hearted continually (always);Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly];Thank [God] in everything [no matter what the circumstances may be, be thankful and give thanks], for this is the will of God for you [who are] in Christ Jesus [the Revealer and Mediator of that will]. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Be happy in your faith…happy? For some reason that word, happy, makes me wonder so I looked it up in the Strongs Concordance..check this out..
1) to rejoice, be glad
2) to rejoice exceedingly
3) to be well, thrive
To be well, to thrive in your faith..think of a seedling, planted well, watered accurately, sun pours down…that plant is going to thrive! So how can we be thriving in our faith? Paul gives us some ideas.
Have a glad heart continually..to me, this is a huge challenge when I hit days that are hard right now. And this is where Paul says, be unceasing in prayer. Pray perseveringly..what word is that? adialeiptōs–without intermission, incessantly, without ceasing..To me, that means, to have joy is to be in constant communication with our Father who art in heaven. That brings joy.
Another that brings joy, in everything, give thanks! Give thanks for this head stuff? Yes. Give thanks for the challenges? Yes, because ultimately it will work out for God's glory and our joy. Does it make sense logically? Maybe not. Yet we are told this is God's will for our lives. And God's will put His Son on the cross, why? For our deliverance, our salvation, our joy..did God like doing this? Of course not, He doesn't like to see His children suffer, but we see only part of the tapestry. He sees the whole.
Give thanks, He has the whole world in His hands. Remember that kids' song? He has it all.
Jesus revealed that will in His life here on earth. We can be glad…we can pray…we can give thanks..and somehow our world doesn't look so bleak.
So, beloved, pray on. Pray on.

Yes, somewhat of an odd question, but I'm trying to figure out what the vocative forms for pig are in Greek and how you would pronounce it. I.e., how would you call a pig or pigs in Greek?
Behind my question is the suspicion that "sooey" (however you spell it), the traditional American way of calling a pig, comes from the Greek. My suspicion is strengthened in that (I do believe that this is correct) in England, one says "hooey."
This would match precisely with the two forms of the word in classical Greek. Here is the Liddell-Scott entry:

That "ee" ending doesn't seem to fit as a 3rd declension vocative ending, but I'm trying to figure out a way that it does.
The English dictionaries I have been able to consult (cf: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sooey) note that the English "sow" does derive from the Latin sus and the Greek sus and hus, and suggest it's just a 'deformed' way of calling out "sow."
Does anyone have other evidence for the etymology of "soo-ee" or "hoo-ee" that might link it back to a proper vocative Greek word?

Tournament favourites France will expect to start their Six Nations campaign with victory over Italy in Paris on Saturday.
Tournament favourites France will expect to start their Six Nations campaign with victory over Italy at the Stade de France on Saturday.
A quick look over France's matchday 22 and one will easily understand why the World Cup finalists are the bookies' choice to dethrone England.
But it would be premature to jump to conclusions about les Bleus regaining the Six Nations title. Lest we forget that Italy were the winners the last time these teams met.
Of course a lot has changed since that fateful day last June, not least of all the coaching staff of both teams. While most observers have put that shock result down to former Bleus boss Marc Lièvremont's inability to get the best out of the players at his disposal, it would be unfair to take credit away from the Italian players on the pitch that day.
Victory in Rome over the then-defending champions marked a milestone in Italy's development. We would also do well to remember that the Italian pack that was at the origin of that win is largely unchanged and although new Italy boss Jacques Brunel has spoken of an evolution in Italy's style of play, we shouldn't expect an overnight revolution.
That's said, if Brunel is true to his word, the Azzurri XV that includes nine Treviso players will give it a proper go on the outskirts of Paris and be more adventurous than the crashing-and-mauling style that characterised the Nick Mallett era.
Whether that's a good idea against this French side is debatable.
The core of the French side that almost caused an upset at Eden Park in October is intact and the five changes made Philippe Saint-André have been met with applause across the country, making for a potentially world-beating mix: Maxime Medard is without doubt France's most exciting full-back, Wesley Fofana and Julien Malzieu have been tearing defences apart for Clermont, Louis Picamoles has been the outstanding ball carrier in Europe this season, Vincent Debaty has impressed with his energy levels and François Trinh-Duc is, well, a specialist fly-half which Morgan Parra, for all his talent, simply wasn't.
Saint-André has been beating the 'consistency' drum since his appointment but he is not the first French coach to bemoan his country's erratic Test form and whether he can bring regularity to this group's performances remains to be seen.
So far all the noises coming out of the French camp at Marcoussis have been positive, but the real test will come when things go wrong, as they inevitable do for any side. Though it's highly doubtful that it will happen this weekend.
For all of the Italian pack's power, they won't dominate their hosts. And while we're excited about the fresh look of the Azzurri backline, it's hard to imagine them matching France's arsenal of attacking firepower.
Players to watch:
For France: Most of the headlines following France's squad announcements have focussed on the inclusion of Clermont's 24-year-old inside centre Wesley Fofana, who has been ripping defensive lines to shreds all season. Fofana should feel right at home alongside club team-mates Aurelien Rougerie and Julien Malzieu. We reckon his running lines will compliment François Trinh-Duc's free-flowing distribution perfectly.
For Italy: Last year's Six Nations Player of the Championship, full-back Andrea Masi scored Italy's only try in their win over the French. The former Racingman has since quit Paris to return to Italy but has failed to set the field alight in an Aironi team that continues to struggle. As the last line of defence, he could be in for a busy afternoon. He should expect some help from Luke McLean, whose left boot should compliment Masi's big right foot in the rear guard.
Head-to-head: If there is a chink in France's armour, some have suggested that it's at loosehead pop. Belgian-born Vincent Debaty has had a storming season but many still question his ability at scrum time. Able to play on both sides of the scrum – his only previous cap came at tighthead back in 2006 – the French staff have handed him the number one jersey. He'll face a stern test against one of the best in the business, Martin Castrogiovanni. They've met twice this season and on both occasions Debaty come out relatively unscathed. With both teams looking to base their game around a strong set piece, their battle could set the tone. Either way, it's likely to be crucial for the rest of Debaty's international career.
Previous results:
2011: Italy won 22-21, Stadio Flaminio, Rome
2010:France won 46-20, Stade de France, Paris
2009: France won 50-8, Stadio Flaminio, Rome

Shorewood district still looking for replacement board member
Shorewood - The Shorewood School District is still looking for applicants to fill Michael Mishlove's recently vacated seat on the School Board.
Applicants must be adult residents of Shorewood and must submit a letter of interest to: Mr. Marty Lexmond, Superintendent, c/o Shorewood School District 1701 E. Capitol Drive, Shorewood, WI 53211. Letters must be postmarked no later than Nov. 30.
Interest letters should include a resume and should explain: reasons the candidate wants to serve; background qualifications and experiences; educational philosophy; views regarding the role of the board and superintendent; views on district's strengths and weaknesses; and availability.
Last week for Bayside leaf collection
Bayside - The week of Nov. 26 is the last round of leaf collection by the village, weather permitting.
Village Manager Andy Pederson advises residents to have leaves out before the next collection day.
A map and schedule of leaf collections is available on the village website.
Charity boxes boom in Fox Point
Fox Point - The first time "Operation Christmas Child" took place at Fox Point Lutheran Church in 2000, congregation children put together roughly 50 boxes for those in need around the world.
Last week, the children put together nearly 1,000 boxes at Fox Point Lutheran's annual packing party.
"I'm really proud of our church," Director of Children's Ministries Julie Schlifske said, "and really proud of our kids."
Village Board approves annual lighting assessments
Brown Deer - The Brown Deer Village Board on Monday approved an annual special street lighting assessment to be placed on the 2012 tax roll for six districts in the village.
The assessment is a "housekeeping" item and is approved every year for the Arbon Drive/West Green Brook Drive district, the Brown Deer Business Park Subdivision, Brown Deer Corporate Park subdivision, North Kildeer Court/West Brown Deer Road district, Opus North Subdivision, and Park Plaza subdivision.
This is not to be confused with the special lighting assessment that was debated back in summer for properties located along Bradley Road, Teutonia Avenue and North Sherman Boulevard in Tax Incremental Financing District 2. That proposal was sent back to the committee level for further discussion.
Public hearing set on proposed improvements at Village Hall
Fox Point - Village officials will seek public input next month as plans to improve security measures at Village Hall are firmed up.
The Village Board last week approved a timeline for the project, which includes a review by the Building Board and Plan Commission on Dec. 3 and a public hearing Dec. 11.
Proposed security improvements will be made to the second-floor service counter at Village Hall, if approved by the board. Changes could include glass partitions at the counter to shield employees from people behind the counter.
Wineries to be allowed in certain Mequon areas
Mequon - The Common Council approved amendments to the city zoning code which will allow wineries in rural residential, rural industrial, and rural business zones.
The change specifically accommodates Grafton-based vintner The Chiselled Grape Winery, which is looking to build a one-acre vineyard and tasting room at 14136 N. Port Washington Road. Alderwoman Pam Adams opposed the idea at first, saying the change would create a questionable precedent in residential areas, but was swayed by the council and later voted for the change.
At the request of Alderman Andrew Nerbun, the council will consider allowing breweries and distilleries as well.
District hires new librarian
Shorewood - Sara Kemp will serve as the next librarian at Shorewood Intermediate School and Shorewood High School.
The School Board on Tuesday approved hiring Kemp for the position. In addition to her background in library science, Kemp also has a master's degree in technology, with professional development experience in PowerSchool, PowerGrade and SMARTBoard systems, among other technology.
Kemp hopes to work collaboratively with teachers to create connections across the curriculum in order to improve learning for students, according to a memo.
Village receives state grant for Main Street reconstruction
Thiensville - The village recently received word from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation that it is the recipient of a $544,784 grant for work associated with the reconstruction of Main Street.
As part of the grant agreement, the village will fund 20 percent, or $163,496, of the reconstruction project. The grant amount represents the remaining 80 percent.
The Village Board on Monday gave tentative approval to the grant while meeting as a Committee of the Whole. Final approval is slated for the regular board meeting Tuesday.
School Board modifies committee structure
Shorewood - The Shorewood School Board will merge its Ad hoc Finance and Land Use committees and establish a Human Resources Committee in order to better address issues facing the district.
Board President Rob Reinhoffer on Tuesday explained that there will now be four board committees - Policy, Curriculum, Human Resources, and Finance and Facilities.
Each of the four current board members will chair a committee, with Reinhoffer overseeing Curriculum, David Cobb chairing Finance and Facilities, Ruth Treisman chairing Human Resources and Colin Plese overseeing Policy.
Once a fifth member is appointed to the board, Reinhoffer said that person likely will rotate between the four committees to gain an understanding of committee operations.
Interested residents can apply to serve on the committees, with the chair of each committee responsible for appointing resident members. Information on how to apply is available on the district's website, at shorewood.k12.wi.us.
Dangerous dogs to be restrained at all times
Whitefish Bay - Whitefish Bay will update its ordinances to specify how dangerous dogs in the village are to be controlled.
The Village Board last week approved amending section 15.11 of the municipal code to state that any dog determined to be dangerous must be restrained at all times, either by indoor confinement, secure fencing, tethering within property lines, or a secure leash managed by a caretaker capable of controlling the dog.
Village Attorney Christopher Jaekels said the update was needed to close a gap in the ordinance. Although it took steps to define dangerous and vicious dogs and specify the regulation of vicious dogs, it did not previously spell out how dangerous dogs must be regulated, Jaekels said.
According to the ordinance, a dangerous dog is defined as one that has bitten or threatened the safety of a person or domestic animal while unprovoked, has a demonstrated propensity to attack, cause injury to or threaten the safety of humans and other domestic animals, or is noncompliant with the village's rabies control policy.
Alternately, a dog would be deemed as vicious if, when unprovoked, it has bitten and inflicted injury causing broken bones or lacerations that require sutures on a human, killed a domestic animal, or has bit, attacked or endangered the safety of humans or domestic animals after already being deemed dangerous.
The ordinance update will give the village more enforcement authority, Jaekels said.

A cross between a popper and a prop bait, the Savage Gear Prop Prey offers the best of both worlds. You can chug it along the surface, and it will produce the killer spitting and splashing action of a popper, all the while the prop is spinning and putting off additional surface disturbance akin to that of a prop bait. Part of Savage Gear's finesse line of lures, it features incredibly lifelike detailing and coloring perfect for clear water situations and finicky fish. Even the premium, super sharp Japanese treble hooks and split rings feature finishes that are color coordinated to the baits' color schemes for the most realistic presentation possible. A rear feather teaser adds additional action and helps balance out the bait. Available in a variety of colors, the Savage Gear Prop Prey takes topwater fishing to the next dimension.

Comments: SGT u can also try adding a small single shank hook to the rear and then put a small (3-4")dropshot worm on for a trailer to act as a tail (mouse/rat bait) I have done this a few times when I was getting no action and that lil trick turned the bite back on.
From: Steveo
Comments: Great little Top Water bait. Have not used it much but when i did I had no problem getting them to bite it. I did replace the feathers on the back with a featered Treble hook though. Might not have needed to but all it takes is that one getting away that makes you wish you did.

"I consistantly wear a size 10 in Nike shoes, but these were way too short and snug. My toes were hitting the front edge of the shoe as I walked around the house in them. They are not comfortable and offer very little arch support for an athletic shoe. I'm trying to decide if I want to return them and get a different shoe all together, or just go up a size. I love the color and the style so this was very disappointing."

Prince George—Peace River
Jay Hill Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
Mr. Speaker, I will be very brief but I did not want to let this opportunity pass. I apologize to all my colleagues in the other parties for not being able to give notice of this ministerial statement.
I would like to inform you, Mr. Speaker, and all members of Parliament that I am very pleased to announce that there has been an agreement reached after very extensive negotiations over the last number of weeks. We had some 16 meetings with a lot of give and take and good faith on the part of everybody involved in these negotiations.
We have an agreement with three of the parties that were involved in those negotiations that respect not only the Speaker's ruling but also the need to preserve national security. My understanding is that in very short order that agreement will be signed by the Prime Minister and the leaders of the official opposition and the Bloc Québécois. We look forward to moving ahead on this issue of the Afghan documents.
Documents Regarding Mission in Afghanistan
Routine Proceedings
10 a.m.
Ralph Goodale Wascana, SK
Mr. Speaker, I can confirm, as the government House leader has indicated, that an agreement has been arrived at involving the government, the official opposition and the Bloc Québécois.
This has been a very serious and difficult subject for Parliament over the course of the last many months, in fact a period of some two or three years. We are hopeful that the agreement that has been arrived at will bring the matter to a successful conclusion.
However, I need to tell the government that, from the point of view of the official opposition, we will continue to be alert and vigilant in the process. The process depends very much upon the honest behaviour of all parties going forward. We will expect to see that kind of behaviour and will call the government to account based upon the information that will now become available to members of Parliament.
We think the agreement maintains the principle of parliamentary sovereignty, which you described so eloquently, Mr. Speaker, in your ruling in April. It recognizes the right of members of Parliament to know, to have the information and to use that information to hold the government to account. The agreement eliminates any unilateral or arbitrary government control over information and, at the same time, it protects national security. We intend to operate under the terms of this agreement in good faith in pursuit of the public interest, and we expect all other parties to do the same.
I would add one caveat. Now that we have proceeded this far and can take some satisfaction in achieving this agreement, it will be important to get the process going forthwith. Parliament and Canadians have waited a long time for this step to be taken and the time for waiting has passed. We now must see the agreement brought to life immediately following the party leaders signing the documents in the next number of hours.

Pierre Paquette Joliette, QC
Mr. Speaker, after a month of negotiations and concessions by both sides, which is the very essence of any negotiation, as the Leader of the Government in the House of Commons has announced and as you suggested, we have come to an agreement with the Conservative Party and the Liberal Party, which we believe will enable Parliamentarians to access documents, while still protecting, as you said in your ruling the confidentiality of sensitive information and protecting our national security.
The Bloc thinks that this agreement is consistent with your ruling of April 27, 2010, and of the agreement in principle reached by the four parties on May 14, 2010. We must remember that this is a very serious issue, which is to enable Parliament to hold the government accountable on allegations of torture against Afghan detainees. It is a serious problem that required and will require the good faith of all those involved. We think that the agreement we came to this morning shows the good faith of the Liberals and the Conservatives.
We also believe that as a result of this agreement we will have access to the information we need to shed light on these allegations of torture. The Bloc firmly believes that this process will work well. The agreement contains a series of measures, for example, that the special committee of members of Parliament will be able to report back to the House as necessary. I am convinced that this process will enable Parliament to achieve its goal of getting to the bottom of the allegations of torture in Afghanistan. This is good news for democracy.

Libby Davies Vancouver East, BC
Mr. Speaker, I rise today on behalf of the NDP.
Having heard the other parties, I would like to inform you, Mr. Speaker, that we in the NDP participated in this process and attended every meeting. We acted in good faith and put forward proposals on part of the negotiations.
However, Mr. Speaker, today our leader and our caucus came to the understanding that we could not sign this agreement that we heard about this morning because we believe there are significant flaws and problems, to an extent that we cannot sign on to this agreement.
I will say that at all times the NDP advocated a process that would protect legitimate national security concerns and the safety of our troops but we believe the process and the agreement that has been arrived at by the other three parties undermines the right of Parliament to hold the government accountable. That was central to your historic ruling, Mr. Speaker.
The committee that was set up was not even a parliamentary committee that will report back to Parliament. It is clear that there will not be full access to documents. The very fundamental issue of getting at the truth of what happened to the detainees in terms of torture and the Canadian government's involvement in that, we are very concerned that this agreement and this process that has been agreed to will not arrive at that truth. We therefore made a decision today that we could not participate in that agreement.
We will continue to do our work in this House to hold the government to account and to ensure the truth does come out.
Mr. Speaker, I know you are aware that in a short while the member for St. John's East will be rising in the House to present a motion. This will be happening in short order.
Marihuana Medical Access Regulations
Routine Proceedings
10:10 a.m.
Michelle Simson Scarborough Southwest, ON
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-539, An Act respecting the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations
Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Brossard—La Prairie for seconding my bill.
I am honoured to stand in the House today and introduce my private member's bill, an act respecting the marijuana medical access regulations. The bill would help ensure that marijuana, which is being produced for medical purposes, is being used only for medical purposes. It would require a background check for all individuals applying to grow medicinal marijuana for their own use, ensure the proposed production site is reasonably accessible by the individual holding the production licence, require an inspection of the production site before the licence can be renewed and require producers to notify other occupants when the production site is in a location with more than one commercial or residential unit.
This legislation would not limit anyone's ability to access medicinal marijuana under the current Health Canada program. It would simply close some loopholes in the production regulations and help prevent abuses in a very important program.

Claude Gravelle Nickel Belt, ON
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-540, An Act to amend the Holidays Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts (St. John the Baptist Day).
Mr. Speaker, it is an honour for me to speak today to introduce a private member's bill entitled An Act to amend the Holidays Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts (St. John the Baptist Day). This bill aims simply to make St. John the Baptist Day a national Canadian holiday.
As Franco-Ontarians, my family and I have always celebrated this holiday, which is very important to us. Since being elected to Parliament, I have come to realize how important this holiday is for French Canadians across the country, and I cannot imagine a better way to celebrate the rich culture of Quebeckers, Franco-Ontarians, Franco-Manitobans, Franco-Albertans or Acadians than making June 24 a day to celebrate St. John the Baptist Day from one end of the country to the other.
I am pleased that the bill is being seconded by my colleague from Timmins—James Bay.

Air Passengers' Bill of Rights
Routine Proceedings
10:10 a.m.
Jim Maloway Elmwood—Transcona, MB
moved for leave to introduce Bill C-541, An Act respecting the rights of air passengers.
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to introduce Canada's first air passenger bill of rights. The bill relates to laws and regulations already in place in Europe and the United States. This is a newly amended version of Bill C-310 and continues to focus on compensation for overbooked flights, cancelled flights, unreasonable tarmac delays, delayed flights and many other provisions. It would also require all-inclusive pricing, that being the total cost of a trip, and airline advertising.
The new version incorporates amendments suggested by the other parties during the first bill's year-long journey through the debates and committee rooms of Parliament. It now includes the following; it clarifies the process by which the airlines can appeal to the Canadian Transportation Agency to decide whether delays are caused by decisions made by an airport authority or other agencies; and it reduces compensation from the first bill for tarmac delays from $500 to $100 per hour but only up to the ticket price, and for denied boarding and cancelled flights by 50%, to $250, $400 and $600, depending on the length of the flight, and only up to the price of the ticket.
I introduced my first air passengers' bill of rights to Parliament just months before the Obama administration began changing its regulations and fining airlines for what was considered unfair treatment of passengers involving tarmac delays. The American fines now add up to $27,500 per passenger for tarmac delays over three hours, with the money going to the government.
My bill has always been much more moderate in compensation, with the money going to the paying passengers who suffer the inconvenience. The bill is not meant to punish the airline industry but merely to correct bad behaviour. If the airlines follow the rules, they will not have to pay any compensation.
Air Canada and Air Transit are already operating under these kinds of laws for their flights to Europe. Today, Canadian passengers get better treatment when they fly to Europe than when they fly in Canada. Canadians want to know why they should not get first class treatment--

The Ohio Valley's schizophrenic spring weather has had an unexpectedly positive effect on my home liquor cabinet. Since it's been too warm for the furnace and too cool for the air conditioner, the house temp has averaged about 75 degrees for two months.

...what an idiot
OMG - I totally agree!!!
I was gagging, rolling my eyes, and just getting an overall stomach clinch every time the guy mispronounced it. And he couldn't seem to decide which mispronounciation to go with.
To be honest it did strike me as a bit suspect that this guy managed to mispronounce a not too complicated name with such a variety of versions - it actually struck me as an intentional thing. Normally when someone misreads something, it is this one version until corrected. Could it be that someone has taken to trolling and is willing to put a bit of effort into it???
This thought occurred to me as well. I guess you could say I have seen more trolls than most ...

Cute but not so comfy
"Maybe if bought in a half size bigger these may be considered a little comfy but since I bought my actual size the first couple of wears were a bit uncomfortable and since they are leather they take a little while to stretch a bit. They cute when worn with a nice pair of ankle pants though."

Order 1/2 size up!
"Thought these shoes were really cute, but way too tight around the toes, short too! So, since they don't have my next size up, I will have to return them. I would imagine they would have been pretty comfy if they ran true to size."

We've all seen the gorgeous vintage reproductions of Levi's jeans, but did you know that the Japanese company Denim Project decided to try their hand at remaking Levi's classic 501XX jeans? They're raw and they're awesome! The jeans, known as the 2c Denim Project D00XXs come complete with their own version of the Levi's label, altered to showcase all of the pop and charm you'd expect from Japan. Cover that label, and you literally can't tell them apart from the 501XXs. Look!

Black & White Spring Shoe

By: Kaneckalar

August 08, 2012
"I saw these shoes and it was love at first sight! They are super comfortable and go with just about any outfit. So why did I give them 2 stars, because they aren't made well. I wore them only twice and the last time I noticed that the bottom of the shoes, underneath the point of the toe, was starting to come apart. It looks like I've had them for years and I bought them 2 weeks ago. I'm really disappointed because I got so many compliments (from men!!) on them. :("
