The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Safe and Healthy Students and the Safe and Supportive Schools Technical Assistance Center partnered with the National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT) to coordinate a special event on Creating a Safe and Respectful Environment on Our Nation's School Buses. These modules are intentionally designed to be offered as a series. The content of each module complements and completes the content contained in the other module. While Module 1 (See Something. Do Something. Intervening in Bullying Behavior) addresses how to identify and effectively intervene when bullying occurs (including tips on de-escalation), Module 2 (Creating a Supportive Bus Climate: Preventing Bullying) considers effective strategies to build a bus climate where bullying is less likely to occur. It's our belief that bus drivers and students alike are best served when BOTH modules are covered with drivers within a short timeframe of one another.

|Federal Partners in Bullying Prevention
hool personnel and other professionals who work with children and youth often experience challenges in identifying bullying and effectively intervening when it occurs. In Bullying Intervention: What Works, three bullying prevention and intervention experts helped participants understand what bullying is (and isn't) and discussed challenges in defining and identifying bullying behaviors. They highlighted key findings from research regarding the prevalence of bullying and the many roles that children and youth can play in instances of bullying. Participants learned which actions children and youth feel are helpful in addressing bullying, and they learned best practice strategies to communicate and intervene with youth who bully, youth who are bullied, and those who witness bullying.

By Jen Beasley UjifusaLegislative DirectorSouthern Utah Wilderness Alliance
We've written before that Congressman Rob Bishop is crafting a land use bill for eastern Utah -- the very heart of redrock country.
Since he first reached out to us and other stakeholders in February, we have participated in good faith, providing 30 years of accrued wisdom about the ecological, archeological, and wilderness values of the region.
We know what you're thinking: that it's risky, right? That it's hard to imagine Rep. Bishop, a longtime wilderness antagonist, doing something SUWA could align with? That the very fate of the redrock may hang in the balance?
We know. But that's exactly why we intend to stay at the table. We wouldn't be doing our jobs if we didn't. And so far, so good.
Throughout August, several open houses were held in the six counties Rep. Bishop has identified for this project. Some were productive, others were cringingly contentious reminders of the challenges ahead. A series of field trips with delegation representatives, conservationists, county commissioners, sportsmen, and others yielded the kind of useful, frank conversations board rooms just don't facilitate. There is some common ground, but so far, no bill.
We'll continue to strive to be productive, professional, and principled. We're advocating for the expanded participation of stakeholders along the Wasatch Front and throughout the nation.
After all, it is only the 30 years of activism from members like you that helped get us where we are today, here at the corner of Hope and Pragmatism. To be sure, this effort is fraught with challenges. We don't know what the final legislation -- if we even get that far -- will be. There's no guarantee we'll like it.
But if we don't try, it's guaranteed we won't. We're staying involved, knowing we've got you, and thousands like you, behind us. There just may be something good coming up ahead.
Thanks for that, and for all you do.

We've all heard, and some have experienced, the saying, "Hell hath no worry like a woman scorned." I've done many dumb things in my life, but thankfully I've never had to endure the wrath of a scorned woman. Women have a long memory and I'm sure those who are scorned need to be taken seriously, but after speaking with George Laraques yesterday the fury of "Enforcer with something to prove," might be akin to that of the scorned ladies.
I've known Laraque for over ten years, and he's usually pretty laid back. We haven't always seen eye-to-eye, but I've always respected him and his role of a tough guy. It is the hardest job in pro sports. It is easy for guys to sit in the stands or at home on the couch and claim they would fight for a living, but the reality is 99% of you couldn't handle it.
The last time I spoke with Georges was in January when he was in town for a charity Ringette game. He said life was good. His kids were keeping him busy, he was heavily involved in charitable events and he mentioned that he physically he hadn't felt better. He joked that maybe he was feeling too good, he weighed around 280, but his back wasn't bothering him anymore so life was good.
In the past few weeks I'd read a few comments that Laraque was considering a comeback. I was stunned. I never thought he'd want to play again. He was the toughest guy in the league for a long time, but he never liked fighting. It was his job, but unlike some tough guys, he never loved it.
Yesterday I had Laraque on my show, and he didn't mince his words when he spoke with Robin Brownlee and I.
JG: There's been some talk of a comeback for you. Is that serious, have you had any contact with any teams?
GL: Yes actually, it's really serious. After two years, my back is 100%. My herniated disk got absorbed and now I feel healthy. So I started training with a personal trainer for months before I actually told my agent that I wanted to try one more time, and ever since I told him everything's been good. I'm back to the same weight that I was playing in Montreal, I'm back to 255 and I'm going to go down to 245. I've been running and training with a power skating coach again.
But to be back at what I'm doing, and what I told my agent was that obviously I'm not stupid enough to think that and someone is going to offer me a contract. I'm asking them for a tryout. I just want to get a tryout after free agency, after July 1st. I know that a lot of teams are looking to see what other teams are going to do, where the guys are going to go. And then depending on the teams, how big they get and what they're going to do, I might get a chance to get a tryout in those areas.
I told him to tell the team that I'm willing to play for minimum salary and that I don't care what my role will be; whether I'm playing every two games, every three games or whatever. I'm just trying to get a chance to finish my career on my own terms, not the way that my career ended in Montreal.
In Montreal I wasn't healthy and when you get released it's not always fun so that's why I told him (agent) I was really serious and see what's going to be there. And so teams are waiting until July 1st (to talk to me) because obviously the guys that are playing in the league will have a priority.
When I get an invitation (to camp) it's up to me that when I get a chance to play exhibition games, to grab every single guy in front of me and beat the shit out of them. That's what I have to do to show everybody I haven't lost anything. Show everybody that all of the tough guys in the league that make 8 and 900 000, that I can do a better job than them at the minimum salary. And hopefully I can get a team interested and after that if I do get a chance, I'm not going to miss it.
JG: That's interesting coming from you because you never liked the fighting aspect. Obviously that was what you were good at, but this would seem like you'd be going back to being the young guy and having to prove yourself all over again. Is that how you see it?
GL: You're 100% right. I would feel like the young guy that has to prove himself. I never liked fighting, I still don't, but now it's different. Now I'm motivated. Now I feel that I have something to prove. Now I know that I would have to fight to get that chance to make that team. And now it's totally different because now when I look at the guy in front of me instead of smiling and laughing like I always fought, and I've rarely fought with any anger, now I would be mad.
I would fight mad because I would look at a guy that would try to stop my dreams, to stop the chance that I have to make it one more time. So it would be totally different and with motivation like that, I wouldn't want to be the guy in front of me during that time because it would be really dangerous.
Nothing is more dangerous than a guy that is motivated and that has a goal and that's truly what I would do. If I do get a chance as I told you before, I'm not going to miss it. I'm not going to just go with the flow because if I go with the flow nothing is going to happen. I have to provoke things.
If it means that I have to do something, get suspended or whatever… I'm not in the same mindset that I was when I was playing. So we'll see what will happen. If I get that chance it will be good. If I don't then things didn't change anyways. So I have nothing to lose. I played 13 years in the league, I feel really fortunate to play in the greatest league in the world and now I'm trying one more time at it and we'll see what's going to happen.
RB: The one thing that people criticized you for was being too nice a guy, going by the code, being too honourable almost, not being that mean S.O.B. that would just grab someone and as you said just beat the crap out of them. When I talk to fans in Edmonton about you maybe coming back that's the criticism they've raised. They know you're tough, they know you're respected, but where you good enough at just being that bully. Would Edmonton automatically be on your short list if they extended an invitation to you?
GL: Ya obviously if Edmonton asked me, I would go there in a heartbeat. I would be happy to because my kids are there, I still live there, I have the house down there so it would be really good. But in terms of what you're saying and you're 100% true, people criticised that fact that I was too nice. I fought over 130 times in 13 years but I was too nice.
From 2000-2010 most of the guys would say that I was the toughest guy in the league but that I was too nice. I was fighting for a living, but I was too nice. So for me that's a contradiction because I was fighting but I was too nice. So really, was I too nice because maybe I didn't want to kill somebody? Maybe when I was fighting I didn't damage them in the way that for the rest of their life they would be affected by it.
To me it's important to fight with a code obviously because if something happens to someone, if I put somebody in a coma, I have to deal with it. Me and no one else. The way that I look at it is if I was too nice, or if I wasn't enough of a bully, how would the team play against us, were they respecting us? Well I think that there was a difference in Edmonton when I was there and when I wasn't there.
After I wasn't there people would say we don't need a tough guy, we don't need a tough guy. But then when I was gone, Boogaard was the most valuable player in Minnesota because he would take the head of everyone in Edmonton and then people started to get plagued by injury, and everybody started getting hurt. And then people realised after that they needed a tough guy and then they tried to find one.
They know that the role is very important, but whether I was too nice or not, every team that I played on always got respected. They never got pushed around and people, even though they thought that I was too nice, they never thought that 'Oh Georges is so nice I'm going to run around and he's not going to go after me.'
But I'm a tough guy and even if no one did anything I would still go and fight them anyway. So whether people thought that I would go at it or that I was too nice the results were there. But now it's different, because I'm coming back and I have something to prove. I know that going with the flow and being so nice and stuff like that is not going to do anything.
My mindset it this, I'm not just showcasing myself for the team that will give me a tryout, because they may not necessarily give me a contract, so during the exhibition games I have to make noise so that all of the 29 other teams will see what I'm capable of. And if they release me, maybe after they just use me to fill in the roster in training camp well then maybe I can get a chance to play somewhere else.
JG: Could you intimidate without just fighting? Because there is only a handful or two of guys that would even be willing to drop the gloves with you.
GL: That's obviously one of the things that would have to happen; I'd need to provoke things. Towards the end (of career), Pittsburgh and Montreal had guys like Talbot, Lapierre, who would irritate the hell out of everyone on the other team and they would have the green light to do whatever they wanted because I was there. I could fit in as a fourth line energy guy. I don't know in Edmonton who would be the energy for the fourth line, but you get a banger that people hate to play against and would want to take their head off.
And when they are playing with a guy like me you can imagine what he would get away with. Imagine what he would do to antagonize the other team more knowing that I was present. This time the guys that I would play with I would tell them to run around and chirp whoever you want and no one's going to touch you tonight.
If I get a chance teams well see that whoever they put me out with they will all have the same attitude; to feel confident that they are safe being the antagonizers.
And that way I could get people to notice that I haven't really lost the touch. Remember, I've only been gone for two years, and when you've been gone for two years and you come back there is something called muscle memory and some things that you never forget and you don't lose.
It's not like I'm 45 years old, and been out of the game for ten years. I've been out for two years and for those two years I was analysing hockey, I was watching the game. I know the guys that are there, I know the training, and I know what I have to do to get back in shape. I'm crossing my fingers and going to see what will happen.
RB: When you were making your name in the league, you were the young guy coming up and the skilled guys on the team were older than you. Now In Edmonton the skilled guys are the young kids. Do you see a need for a guy in your role in Edmonton?
GL: You know, Edmonton needs it more than anyone else and they don't have anybody. Last year they were playing this role with Hordichuk, with Ben Eager and not that I have anything against those players, they are really good role players but if you can get a guy, say for example that can do the job and doesn't take two roster spots, a guy that isn't on always on the 20-man roster, maybe it is better.
Teams have 23 players and so you get a few players that might only play against tough teams or whatever, but you need a guy in the lineup that scares people, that intimidates teams and I don't think that those two guys necessarily do.
Because you have such a young team, you need somebody to protect the core and you need a role player like me. I won't take somebody's roster spot because you are an extra, and everything you do is extra. It's almost like a bonus. I'd be there to complement those guys, to get them to play bigger, play more freely and not be afraid of being run around.
Look at the years that the Oilers had all of their success with Dave Semenko. I know that he could play and that he was a good player but the role hasn't changed. LA does it for one, they have Westgarth, and even though he didn't play in the Stanley Cup Finals the reason why all of those guys were able to play in the playoffs and they were healthy was because he was protecting them all year.
The guys on the team know he had a role in helping them win the cup. It was the same as when Dave Brown did it, even though he didn't play a game in the playoffs, we all remember when Mark Messier gave him the cup and his teammates knew he played a part in getting them to the playoffs.
The tough guy has an important role to play in the regular season games. He has to ensure that when playoff time comes all of those guys (skilled players) are healthy and they are not hampered by injury due to other teams taking advantage of them. They can play the game without having to worry about anything and that is what my role will be; to make sure that the young Oilers team, if they make the playoffs, that the guys are healthy because they didn't get banged around all season long.
I doubt we'll see smiling Georges when he returns. He sounds like a man with something to prove and he's hoping for an opportunity. I'm certain numerous teams will offer him an invite to training camp. In the preseason you are required to dress ten "veterans" every night, and like Laraque said maybe they will just use him to fill up one of those spots so regular veterans won't have to play.
If Laraque is willing to intimidate with his gloves on and off I'm sure he'll garner some interest, especially from teams in the tougher Eastern Conference.
If he does get a shot, I wouldn't want to be the young fighter who has to line up against him in his first preseason game, because it sounds like he has two years of "scorned" frustration he wants to release.
June 28 2012, 02:18PM
I'm a huge Kassian fan. He has improved as a player a lot the past few years, and when it comes to fighting, he's right up there.
If the Wild don't sign him, then I'd look at him.
He has spent a surprising amount of time at Wild events this summer. If they don't sign him it will be a pretty cheap move given what they have asked of him while not under contract.
June 28 2012, 02:24PM
And please.
"Controlled the puck down low."
The phrase play dies with.. was invented for that very reason.
Other teams would stand back and laugh. Wait for him to do nothing, go nowhere and give it back.
Let's get back to dreaming about US college players.
The Phrase "doing his job" applies too.
He had two jobs. One was to fight, but he also skated a shift. If a fourth line is doing their job then they are keeping the game low event while they are on the ice.
If the other team is standing back waiting then he is doing his job perfectly.
I'm not in favor of dressing a goon at ll, but if the team decides they must have one then BGL WAS 10X the hockey player Hordichuk is. I don't know if that is still true but it's worth a look if the team refuses to go without a goon.
June 28 2012, 02:27PM
I don't really want him back on the team because I don't think his player type is particularly effective. That being said, if the Oil are set on including an enforcer in the lineup, I think you can at least invite him to tryout. I think he would be more effective than a Hordichuk. Didn't he score a hat trick somehow once? If he's in as good of shape as he claims and they are going to sign an enforcer anyway, why not give Georges a chance to play 30-40 games next year at league minimum?
All true.
29th place.
Would have been 30th without Smyth. He's not the problem, Look to the D and especially Khabibulin if you want to know why the team was 29th.
Based on your show with George's, I have a lot more respect for George now! I always like him but I sense he has better figured out how to be a deterrent and policeman.
JG you were right on suggesting that most people do not understand the physical, mental, and emotional toll this role takes on a person! I for one would give him a chance if only for the fact he is feared by his opponents, and we have a small team that needs this kind of deterrent!
June 28 2012, 03:39PM
I would like to see them invite Kassian and George to camp. At very least they can have George give him tips and work with him to improve his fighting. Watch them both play in the preseaon and keep the one who plays most effectively and has the best team attitude.
George is only an option if he has changed his views on who he will fight.
June 28 2012, 03:54PM
Zamboni Driver is out to lunch.
Considering the 4 players who ended up with more points on the season than Smytty were a group of 18-22 year old hot shots, i dont think anyone can argue that Ryan hasn't done his part.
In RNH's case, Ryan Smyth is literally TWICE his age!
Smyth isn't a super star but he's far from washed up.
I have no issues with your argument A-Mc.RS was brought in as an example to the younger crew and ethics demonstration (insert "work" here)....along with what he could produce to assisst the offence..... Sometimes though, I think all these arm chair studs can't really see the forest for the trees. Or the actual game that is afoot........I must say...I am no superlative Frankenstat fan. However, I did play at Tier one level and was involved in a Mem Cup win for the west in the late 70's, additionally I have a close relative (by marriage) with his name on Stanley and all the stories to go with it. It certainly gives you a different perspective than all the "Div 1" studs.
We need a defenceman, a goalie (let doobie play), and some creative planning........"stop the stifle"........
My hero.
George seems to be making it clear that his motivation is to make it onto a team's roster so he can go out on his terms. I have no doubts he can muster that sort of energy. Unfortunately I don't see George maintaining that intensity once he has made the team. At that point his goal has already been achieved.
I'm not saying he won't try to honour his contract. However I would caution any team against thinking what they see in tryouts is what they'll see 20 games into the season.
George could have been a really good NHL hockey player (not just fighter), but once he got into his NHL position, he focused too much on everything else in life.
That one year that he had a bunch of points was the start of something, but he rested on his laurels and drifted away.
I wish him luck in his comeback - I am a sucker for a good comeback story.
He would't protect teammates when he was the toughest guy in the NHL and now I am suppose to believe he will actually do his job when he isn't the toughest guy in the league anymore? Please. The best predictor of the future is the past.
Big George wants to come back and be the tough guy for the Oilers again. I think this is something the Oilers should look into, we have been a team plagued by so many injuries by dirty plays and players the past few years. Torres trying to take off Eberle's head, Taylor Hall fighting his own fight against Dorsett, Hemsky getting his shoulder busted by a Handzus check from behind.
Sometimes I don't see why people wouldn't thinkt that having this feared and intimidating guy wanting to come back here to solely protect our young guys would be a bad thing? Roster spot for a tough guy who can score? Are we really that greedy? Our first line alone has 100 goal potential. Our second line can kick out some goals as well with Yakupov coming in. Even our third line with Smyth Horc and Hemsky could chip in with at least 40-50 goals.
With all this talent and us being one of the smaller teams in the league. The Hordichuk and Eager experiment went horribly wrong when they wouldn't defend the skilled guys. If BG is pissed off then have him come back and tell him to remain pissed off. I remember in 2006 when the Oilers were down to San Jose with their big intimidating forwards and pushed us around for the first two games in their rink. MacT inserted Big George and told him to go run wild. All he did was make a Cheechoo stain on the boards and got ejected. I think that's where the complexion of the series took a serious turn because it said that we can be intimidating too. A six foot three 270 pound man who can beat the crap out of anyone might be exactly what we need.
If he can still skate, and could hold the puck in the O zone like he used to - why not?
There will be a slugger, he's the best. He's right about using one less roster spot and not whining about ice time. It would also free up playing time for guys who should be getting it.
Of course it comes down to fitness.
Here in montreal he did not prove himself as an inforcer in fact we sent him home for two years and paid his salary just so he wouldn't play. so good luck to any team that picks him up.

Designed to mimic an injured baitfish, the Picasso Shad Walker is completely weedless and extremely versatile. It can walk-the-dog over the thickest slop, grass and vegetation like no frog can, and it really shines in open water where it can be twitched, killed, or also used to walk-the-dog in a wider, sweeping action. Gone are the days of fish pulling your lure down by its legs and not getting hooked, the Shad Walker's legless design means bass have no choice but to get the hooks in their mouth. The legless design also allows you to skip the Shad Walker further under docks and overhangs than you can with a standard frog, allowing you to reach fish other lures can't get to. Designed to sit higher in the water than a frog, it can even be fished in rougher water conditions without losing its action. Available in several fish catching colors, the Picasso Shad Walker does everything a hollow body frog can - and then some.

Comments: i fish this in a heavily weeded pond where 80% of the pond is thick matts. i've had problems with it landing upside down but that was fixed with a bit of lead soldering wire added to the bottom of the hook. I've caught 10+ fish on it and its still in tact, no rips, and no paint wear.the hook up ratio is rough but if you bend the hooks out a little more its easier to set into fish...i love this bait but i do highly recommend a lake fork frog trailer hook as it doubles your hook up ratio.
From: Nikko: Oakland, CA 8/24/15
Comments: Very Soft. It feels softer than the Koppers Live Target that I normally use. The action on this thing is amazing, doesn't take much to make this thing look alive. Friends that I was with were amazed also. Haven't caught anything on it yet, only took it out once. I got a few blow ups but nothing big enough to take it down. Fishing in the Delta here in CA. Look forward to using this a lot more.
From: Sang: Sacramento, CA 6/5/14
Comments: Wow, these are much bigger than I expected! Pros: walks easily, Good hookup ratio, Very soft. Cons: lands upside down half the time, Doesn't come through cover easily, Not that durable. For the price of 3.50, ill buy more for open water.
From: Bryce: Orange County California
Comments: I ordered the bass colored one and in the picture it looks very yellow, but when I received it it was actually green and looked like a true bass. Overall looks pretty promising and I will most likely be trying it out on good ole lake havasu this weekend. Will get back on overall performance.
From: Blake: HB, CA
Comments: I saw a couple of complaints on the Shad Walker taking on grass due to a gap between the hook and plastic body. This issue has been corrected by adding a 4/0 Gamakatsu hook which eliminated that gap They are available now and are the regular priced versions. The red priced ones are closeouts and have the old hook in it.
From: Dan: Kennesaw GA
Comments: Very good hollow-body top-water bait. Mimics a dying or struggling baitfish very well... so well that a seagull took a swoop at it this past wkend while I was fishing it over grass on the Mississippi. Will take on a lot of water, will not come through thick grass & slop very well, and paint will start to come off after only 1-2 fish (at least the blk one did). Still, for $3.48/ea...
From: SVM: WI
Comments: This is a very cool bait. Little bit bigger than your average frog and walks really easily. Fairly soft bait but not super soft like a live target. Only complaint is that it gets a lot of moss stuck on it when you throw it in the thick stuff. There is a small gap between the plastic and the hook which does get caught up when in thick stuff.
From: John: CA
Comments: Hi i have been fishing frogs with limited catches so i thought i would try the shad and i use a reel with a twiching bar on it and i will tell you that with the twitching bar it makes it look like a dieing bait fish so much so that i cant tell you if it catches bass or not cause a sea gull swoped down on it and took it cause it looked so much like a fish on top of the water that the bird took it so im glad i ordered three of them so i can try a different one on the fish thanks for making such a realistic lure.....
From: Jeff: Erie, PA
Comments: I have been fishing this bait recently and cant say enough about it. It has a great Walk-the-Dog action. Its a mixture of a hollow belly frog and a spook. I was watching BASS Mississippi River Rumble and noticed Todd Faircloth won the event throwing this bait. Looks like the secret will be out soon. If you havent tried this you need to check it out. This bait is SICK!!!!
From: Joe: NJ
Comments: I love this bait, I was able to walk the dog, and found quite a nice feature. I could make it jump, It would jump about 1 foot. It is so cool. The way I could get it to jump was walking the dog fast, then right when it dips, a quick twitch and it will jump!
From: Luke
Comments: 5 stars out of 5 for this clever idea for a super soft weedless bait that has the latest dying shad appearance. This hollow shad is super easy to walk, much easier than any Spook I have ever thrown, and does some amazing dances on the surface. You can hop it, walk it, make it do a 180 which really looks cool, or twitch it in place for subtle finesse cold front action. There's a tiny hole near the tail on the soft underside through which air is expelled when bass cream it, bearing the hook points for a solid hook set. It casts very well without twisting, lands with hook points up, and does not collect water. What more can you ask. Good color selection, too; I got the golden shiner.
From: Ed: Champaign, IL
Comments: This thing felt and looked cheap when I opened it. Almost regret buying this,that was until I actually used it. Walks pretty well and found this bait very productive when the weeds are just under the water. I was impressed.Great search bait.
From: Matt
Comments: This is an excellent walk the dog lure. You got to try it for yourself. Had several blow ups on it when a frog wouldnt work. Hollow body is very soft, and has a drain hole in the back so it doesnt get water logged.
From: Don: Benton, KY
Comments: fished this bait for the first time two weeks ago on a small lake in western pa. caught three toads including a 5lb 11 oz smallie. walks easily and great hook ups.
From: Scott: PA
Comments: Loving this bait, love how I can twitch it like a frog and then give it big sweeps and swooshes. It picks up a little bit more grass than other but great hook up ratio.
From: Trevor: Simi Valley
Comments: Best weedless hollow body bait on the market! The action is incredible and the hook up ratio is awesome . This is a must for all anglers! It will blow your mind how bad you can trick the fish with this bait.
From: Billy: Lake Havasu City, AZ
Comments: walks the dog with ease - this is a great search bait in open water around humps, ditches and ledges. When the bite slows down on this bait, pick up a Picasso Fantasy Football jig and work the water column (watermelon/chartreuse/tiger 3/8oz is a great jig)
From: Russ: Canton, GA
Comments: This bait walks-the-dog like a champ, I had about 7 blow ups but only two bass took the bait. I still perfer the spro frog but will use this as a back-up
From: Sam: Laplata, MD

A region 12 loss last Thursday night to the Delta Rabbits in Delta has put the Spartans into a hole. Last week, Emery was in a tie for second with Delta and Juab behind first place team Manti, now Emery stands alone in fourth place with the loss.
Emery lost to Delta 24-13.
Last week, besides the Emery-Delta game, Juab defeated Manti to give the Templars their first region loss of the season and Richfield defeated North Sanpete in a battle of winless region teams. Now Manti, Juab and Delta stand atop the region standings with 3-1 records with Emery at 2-2, Richfield at 1-3 and North Sanpete at 0-4.
This week Delta and Juab play with the winner assured at least a tie for the region championship. Manti can claim a tie of that championship with a win over Richfield. With a win over the Hawks, Emery would assure themselves of a tie for third place and would share a tie for second if Richfield upset Manti. The Spartans really need a victory this week at Mt. Pleasant.
At Delta last week, Emery was able to score first in the game. After holding the Rabbits on their first series and forcing a Rabbit punt, Emery took over on their own 14-yard line and proceeded to score in six plays. After Taylor Cox and JT Noyes each picked up a yard on a carry, Derek Tuttle connected on a pass with Cox on a play that covered 18 yards. After short runs again by Cox and Noyes, a Rabbit pass interference call gave Emery a first down at the Delta 47-yard line. Tuttle connected with Kashe Potter for the touchdown and with the Brian Clark extra point, Emery led 7-0.
Each team punted on their next series and then Delta tied the score with a 65-yard drive with all yardage coming on the ground. Emery then fumbled the ball away at their own 15-yard line to put themselves in a big hole. Delta returned the favor by fumbling the ball right back at the Emery 11-yard line and the Spartans avoided getting behind. Derrick Allred recovered the fumble for Emery. On Delta's next series, Noyes intercepted a Delta pass after lineman Tanner Procarione deflected the thrown ball. The score was 7-7 at the half.
Emery received the kick-off to start the second half of play and after picking up one first down; Emery threw an interception at their 32-yard line. Delta kicked a 41-yard field goal in the third quarter to grab the lead for the first time in the game and led 10-7 after three periods of play after not being able to pick up any yards on the Spartans.
Emery, in their next offensive series, marched from their 20-yard line to the Rabbit 35-yard line to threaten to take back the lead. This drive consisted of 14 plays. With first and 10, Emery lost six yards on a run, lost another five yards on a penalty, threw two incomplete passes and gained nothing on another run to turn the ball over to Delta on downs.
Delta took over and scored nine plays later on a 12-yard run by their quarterback. After Emery punted on their next series, Delta scored again to lead 24-7. Emery then scored on their last series of the game as the Spartans went 80 yards in 11 plays to score on Tuttle to Dusty Jensen pass play that covered 24 yards. Tuttle also completed passes of 12 yards to Procarione, nine yards also to Jensen and a pass to Potter, which he then lateraled to Noyes. The play covered 32 yards.
After the game Coach Jimmy Jones talked to his players, "You played hard, that was a good job. Delta executed well on both sides of the ball, Delta played well."
Jones then looked ahead to this week's game, "North Sanpete is a big game. We need to take care of business in that game. We need to have a great week next week."
With a win, Emery ensures themselves they will make the play-offs. The game is Friday night at North Sanpete in Mt. Pleasant. Game time is 7 p.m.

The denim forecasts are in after the two-day Denim by Premi?re Vision trade fair in Paris that ended on June 3rd. With strong influences from Celine, Seventies Biba and the continuing strength in vintage workwear for men, the popular trend will be all about formalwear. Tailored, structured, and clean lines, heavily influenced by the runways of Celine, will be the style to look out for. Designers are looking more towards trouser and chino style silhouettes. Popular for the ladies will be low-crotch carrot styles and for men vintage workwear.
New fabric blends such as rayon blends with a velvety touch, Tencel, micro modal, Cupro and the push for more stretchy blends for men's denim are the future for premium denim.
Black denim, mirrored surfaces, denim shirting and draped denim among other key trends. A fluid drop-crotch rayon version of the "jegging," or denim legging, and the "jeather" a new denim concept by Turkey's Isko combining a jean form with a leather-like finish.
You want novelty denim? Included in the mix was a warp and weft indigo-dyed jean by Japan's Kurabo, an "emotional jean" that changes color with heat by Denim Valley from Royo (that could get a little tricky) and an eco-friendly "wine jean" range by South Korea's Eco Yaa involving denim dipped in wine tannin, grape callus extract and sprout compounds. The properties in wine are supposed to help prevent chafing.
All very exciting!

The Castle Dale City Council met in their regularly scheduled meeting at the Castle Dale City Hall on Jan. 9. Mayor Neal Peacock called the meeting to order. Council members in attendance were Jack Rogers, Brad Giles, LaMont Gordon and Dan Whiteleather. Carolyn Jorgensen, city treasurer and Linda Turner, city recorder were also present.
Following the prayer and the pledge of allegiance, the first item of business was accepting the minutes from the previous meeting. After one clarification to the minutes, the council approved the minutes.
The Youth City Council for the new year was sworn in by Turner, city recorder. Those students sworn in were: Bethany Peacock, mayor, Megan Rogers, mayor, Cory Montgomery, mayor-elect and Nicole Sanders, mayor-elect. Councilmembers are Michelle Johansen, Melanie Johnson, Brandon Wilberg, Stephanie Greenburg and Becky Wright. Camylle Longmore is the reporter for youth council and Lindsey Huntsman is the treasurer.
Mayor Peacock and Councilman Gordon expressed their appreciation to the youth council for all the help and support they have given Castle Dale City in the past.
Emery County Commissioner Gary Kofford was then introduced to address the council. Kofford stated he had been approached by the chamber of commerce and the fair board to reserve the facilities on the needed dates for the fair this summer. Kofford reported the pageant would run from July 31-Aug. 9 with the exception of Sunday and Mondays. The fair itself would run from Aug. 5-9 and the chamber of commerce would host the lamb fry July 31 and Aug. 1-2. The rodeo is scheduled to run July 25-26. The parade is scheduled to run Aug. 9.
Commissioner Kofford then expressed the wish of the chamber, the museum board and the fair board to move the dinner and most of the activities back to Castle Dale City Park due to the accessibility. He stated other reasons for requesting this change. Kofford also asked permission to approach the sheriff's office about closing some city roads to accommodate the fair.
Councilmen Giles and Whiteleather expressed some concerns over the move. Gordon also had reservations. Giles requested from Kofford a letter explaining the reasoning and outlining the exact requests. He stated the council would go over this letter and address each request. Mayor Peacock asked Kofford of the location for the exhibits. Kofford responded the museum board wants them back at the museum. Kofford then asked that both parks and the dates be blocked for the county's use to ensure available space to accommodate whatever decision is made regarding the location of the fair and lamb fry. Mayor Peacock instructed Jorgensen to make the notations on the calendar. Mayor Peacock also responded to the request that a more detailed discussion would need to take place with the chamber and the fair board when the request letter is received.
Mayor Peacock then moved on to the mayor's report. He reported that bids had come in for the truck the city had advertised. All bids were as yet unopened. One bid came in on time and the other two were late. Discussion followed to the procedure and wording of the advertisement. Giles moved to table the decision until the laws could be researched and the League of Cities and Towns could be contacted.
A Castle Dale resident was next to speak from the audience. Mayor Peacock asked the resident if he had a follow up report on a topic from the November meeting. The resident responded that he had spoken to his attorney and that the item of discussion was the responsibility of the city. Mayor Peacock responded by explaining to the resident that he had been to the site with Kerry Lake, Castle Dale city planning and zoning, and together they had made an agreement with the property owner to keep his vehicles at least 12 feet inside the pavement line. Until the sidewalks are finished, the resident would have to be patient and give the other party time to comply. Giles added the sidewalk project would begin some time in the upcoming week. When the sidewalks are complete, the vehicles must remain inside the sidewalk. Mayor Peacock added he had returned to the site and the owner of the vehicles was in compliance with the agreement.
The resident responded that he would comply with the council's decisions. He then questioned the council about the enforceable laws in this matter. Mayor Peacock answered him saying that they are investigating and when they know, the resident will know.
Mayor Peacock moved on to a matter concerning the Castle Dale City Fire Department. Peacock presented a plaque to Tom Maier, former city fire chief, and expressed his thanks and appreciation for the hours of work Maier has put into the betterment of the fire department.
Peacock then read a thank you note from the Seventh District Juvenile Court for the cash donation to help them provide Christmas for a local family.
Mayor Peacock then began the council reports with a note from Councilman Doug Weaver, who was not in attendance. The note stated that Weaver had spoken to Glen Vernon, Fairview City manager, and Vernon had stated the business license ordinance that Castle Dale City has been reviewing is not appropriate. That ordinance was made in Cedar City, a town much larger that Castle Dale and because of the difference in population and needs, Castle Dale would need to look at one drafted for a smaller town. Weaver also wrote that the working copy of the city's survey needs input and suggestions by the council. Peacock has contacted a statistics class at the College of Eastern Utah and they will help with the statistical side of the survey.
Councilman Giles was next and he stated he has been working on the street signs. He has contacted a company for bids to replace the existing signs but he needs more specific requests from the council about how the signs are to be designed. Giles stated estimated prices of signs with and without a logo. The council decided to put the Castle Dale City logo on the new street signs. Whiteleather suggested a contest for the school children to design the logo. Other logo ideas were discussed along with something to match the "Welcome to Castle Dale" signs on the highway coming into town. The council approved to secure a bid price with a logo for the new street signs.
Mayor Peacock then reminded the councilmen that the special service district wants a list of the projects to be considered for next year to be submitted by February. The council then discussed a number of projects in the planning stages for next year.
Giles informed the council he had received a letter from the Utah Department of Transportation with the notice that UDOT will be roto-milling all the main streets in Emery County towns this coming summer. Traffic will be slowed down and reduced to one lane in each direction, but the road will not be totally closed. UDOT also asked if the city has any need of the 2,500 tons of roto-mill material that this project will produce. The council discussed the environmental regulations attached to this request and where the material could be utilized in Castle Dale. UDOT has stated if the city has a designated use for this material, they will move it to that site during the project.
Giles then reported on the curve project. He stated that he has been in contact with the supervisor of the project in Richfield, Monte Aldrich, and Aldrich has promised to keep the council updated on the progress of the project. When questioned from the audience concerning a stop light on Main and Center streets, Giles answered that at the last traffic count, there was not enough traffic flow to warrant a stop light.
Councilman Whiteleather reported that a grant has been applied for from the CIB for the extension of the pavilion at the rodeo grounds.
Councilman Rogers reported on the easements for water lines. He also discussed some problems and their solutions. Rogers said the fire department met the previous day and had selected officers for the year. The department had also inquired about a junior fire fighter program, the squad wants to start one.
Several of the current firefighters for Castle Dale were in a similar program when they were younger and feel this is a viable program for the young people.
Peacock responded that in the past there have been liability issues with the insurance company. Rogers asked the council to review the insurance policy and see if there is some way to overcome the problems. Mayor Peacock instructed Jorgensen to call the insurance company and investigate.
Rogers also reported that Orangeville City's summer celebration is scheduled for June 14, so the date selected by Castle Dale will be okay, as it is June 21. He stated that he is in the process of organizing the committee and they are beginning to plan the activities for this celebration.
Councilman Gordon reported that the Pioneer Museum window replacement project is nearly complete. Volunteers will be painting the windows in the upcoming week. He requested that the council investigate some way to have all the remaining windows in city hall replaced.
Gordon also reported that contractors have been contacted and he is receiving bids to repair the roof over the pool.
He said it is leaking quite badly right now with the snow melting. Gordon stated that the work on the billboard is still progressing.
As there was no other business, the council adjourned into executive session.
The next meeting for the Castle Dale City Council is Feb. 13 at 7 p.m.

Fact file: Chevrolet Corvette Stingray coupe
Next-generation Corvette redefines performance
- Segment: Performance car
First unveiled at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray coupe delivers a perfect balance of technology, design and performance. It was named after the iconic 1963 model of the performance car with its unique silhouette.
With model year 2015, the Corvette Stingray offers the new Performance Data Recorder (PDR). This industry-first feature comes with an integrated camera, which records videos in HD quality and captures key telemetric data at the same time. The video, including the telemetric data, can be watched immediately when the car is in park. It can also be downloaded to a computer at home. The performance data recorder can be used to measure and compare the driver's performance on the racetrack.
With an output of 466 hp (343 kW) and 630 Nm of torque, and a 0-100 km/h acceleration of 4.2 seconds, the new Stingray is the most capable standard Corvette ever. It is also the most fuel efficient standard Corvette produced so far.
Boasting an all-new aluminum frame structure, a new engine as well as an entirely new exterior and interior design, the Corvette Stingray shares just two parts with its predecessor.
The new 6.2L LT1 V-8 engine features advanced technologies, including direct injection, Active Fuel Management, continuously variable valve timing and an advanced combustion system that delivers more power while requiring less fuel.
Driver technologies are equally sophisticated. A five-position Drive Mode Selector tailors 11 vehicle attributes to the fit the driver's environment while a new seven-speed manual transmission with Active Rev Matching anticipates gear selections and matches engine speed for perfect shifts every time.
The Corvette Stingray features Magnetic Ride Control which adjusts shock damping based on road conditions as well as Launch Control, Active Handling (StabiliTrak stability control), Traction Control, and Performance Traction Management.
Lightweight materials were strategically applied in the carbon fiber hood and removable roof panel, composite fenders, doors and rear quarter panels, and carbon-nano composite underbody panels. This helped shift weight rearward for an optimal 50/50 weight balance.
The Z51 performance package is standard on European models and comprises: an electronic limited-slip differential; dry-sump oiling system; integral brake, differential and transmission cooling; specific shocks and springs; larger wheels; as well as a special aero package that further improves high-speed stability.
The exterior features advanced high-intensity discharge and light-emitting diode lighting, racing-proven aerodynamics that balance low drag for efficiency and performance elements for improved stability and track capability.
The interior boasts real carbon fiber, aluminum and hand-wrapped leather materials, heated and vented power seats, a head-up-display, and Chevrolet's latest MyLink connected radio with two 8-inch configurable connectivity screens.
The MyLink radio enables voice recognition and text-to-speech. Up to 10 Bluetooth-enabled devices can be paired and several of them connected at one time; connectivity is also possible through USB and aux-in jacks.
The screen above the integrated center stack offers full capacitive control with an animated human machine interface while the liquid crystal display in the instrument cluster is organized into sport, tour and track themes that can be changed using the Driver Mode Selector.
The Corvette Stingray coupe is built at GM's Bowling Green assembly plant in Kentucky, U.S.A.
Status: October 2014

Skip to comments.US sets deadline for Iran to cooperate with IAEA
Posted on 11/29/2012 4:32:13 PM PST by Dave346
The United States effectively set a March deadline on Thursday for Iran to start cooperating in substance with a U.N. nuclear agency investigation, saying it would otherwise urge reporting the issue to the U.N. Security Council. The comments by U.S. diplomat Robert Wood to the 35-nation governing board of the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency signalled Washington's growing frustration at the lack of results in the IAEA's inquiry into possible military dimensions to Tehran's nuclear programme. Iran denies the charge. "If by March Iran has not begun substantive cooperation with the IAEA, the United States ... would urge the board to consider reporting this lack of progress to the U.N. Security Council," Wood said, according to a copy of his statement.
(Excerpt) Read more at reuters.com ...
Whoa! That'll teach 'em.
Pathetic excuses for Americans, this administration.
More stall tactics to assist Iran in building the bomb. Hopefully, Israel will decide to prevent that themselves.
Or else what? You'll set another deadline?
Obama and his perverted administration don't want to stop Iran. They want Iran to succeed.
I think Obamugabe hates Israel almost as much as the Mullahs.
Is that a "deadline cliff"?
IIRC, they are supposed to have nuke capability by then, or soon therefter.
and then what?
They better get started on considering a committee to ponder the potential verbiage that might be included in a stongly worded letter that we'll be thinking about sending in the future sometime.
I'm sure we'll see some results.
I bet Imadimnutjob is really scared this time.
Now, Jimmy, please stop doing that.
Jimmy continues
Jimmy, I'm going to count to three and if you don't stop I'm going to send you to your room for time out. One ... two ........... three.
Jimmy continues
Ok, Jimmy, I'm going to give you one more chance to stop - I'm going to count to ten this time. ............... nine ............. ten
Jimmy continues
Ok, Jimmy, go to your room and stay there until I say you can come out - and don't turn the television volume up too loud, or talk too long on your cell phone with your friends, or play video games too long. And I mean it!
Isn't this the old Jimmah Cahta plan. All talk and no action? Oh I forgot AND we gotta give them a boatload of cash too!
If it is after the Mayan 12/21/2012 it doesn't matter. Actually I am hoping to be debt free that day.
I wonder if Mrs. Bill Horndog included an "or else" with the stern note of instruction to Iran?
Heh. The penalty is stated in the article. The U.S. will recommend the IAEA report the lack of cooperation to the UN Security Council. I suppose that's like putting a black mark on Iran's permanent record.
——The United States effectively set a March deadline on Thursday for Iran to start cooperating in substance with a U.N. nuclear agency investigation, saying it would otherwise urge reporting the issue to the U.N. Security Council——
Betcha that tightened up the ole spincter muscle on iamanutjob....

Ozero knows that Israel won't wait until March so he can stab Israel in the back for "jumping the gun".
They can skip all that. The letter has already been written. It's been written a hundred times before. "Deeply concerned" is in there somewhere.
I would say it's more like my kindergartner not getting his hand stamped for behaving all day.
Wow. I bet Iran's Mullahs peed themselves in fear.
Sounds like CIA now believes Iran is going to have their bomb making abiity completed in March. Then Zero will be able to say to the UN, "never mind"...
I think there was a fire or an explosion on Saturday at one of Iran's nuke facilities.. Possible radiation leak too.

Love the look
"Just got these boots and they look great. BUT the foot is a little tight & the zipper and front seam are angled on one. The angled seam and zipper aren't noticeable though, I just pay attention to every *little* detail. Other than this they are comfortable, stylish, and are a great addition for my fall footdrobe."

Cute Boots
"They are a pretty red/brown color, I would even wear them with black! I ordered an 8 and usually wear an 8.5 sneaker and still have a little wiggle room. The tread can be a little slippery, bottom of the heal is hard instead of rubbery and I may consider sliding an insert into them to add some comfort for days I will be on my feet many hours. Very nice boot for the price!"

Az ingatlan értékelései
Great location. Nice view of the bay. 20 minutes to Sydney CBD by bus. Very well connected with many buses. Apartment is very, very small. Tiny bathroom. Warm in September. The flat is quite noisy, as it is located just by the road. Good area with bars and restaurants for breakfast and dinner. NO internet!!!!! Very bad service to collect keys. We arrived late in the night and we had to go to another hotel to collect the keys. Then take a taxi to get to the apartment. A bit dirty upon arrival. We had to clean the apartment ourselves. No service to leave luggage on the day of departure!!!! For the price, next time, we will go for a HOTEL.
Our stay in this apartment went well. The directions we had been given for collection of the key was straight forward. With the bus stop at the bottom of the stairs it was "all go" to get around Sydney. We arrived in the dark and we were blown away at the city vista from seven floors up.
Thank you.

Fantastic view, Good bed, a little bit shabby but clean, perfect contact,
We had a great stay at his condo before our cruise. It was just as advertised and anything we needed was only a phone call away.
It was very clean when we arrived and the beds are very comfortable.
The condo is in a great location within walking distance to the CBD and Darling Harbour. We will defiantly be staying here again when we come back to Sydney.
Fabulous apartment, very spacious and clean, with a gorgeous view of the bridge and cityscape, lovely little touches by the host made us feel at home, very secure building and parking made all the difference I will definitely be booking this apartment again in the future
Appartment is very good located and has space enough for 4 to 5 people (one bedroom for adults, the other bedroom rather for 2-3 kids). Great is tennis-court and pool on the rooftop with amazing few.
The price was rather high and for this, in our opinion all details shoud be perfect (like dishwashing machine must work correctly, all lights should work, no broken chairs).
Very nice spacious apartment with a fantastic view of Sydney. Great location. We really enjoyed our stay.
We stayed at the apartment in April 2015 (2 adults and 2 children) and found it to be excellent. Great location (handy to transport and also easy to walk into town and around), great facilities, spacious, very comfortable and very clean and tidy. The one negative was dealing with Peter and his office staff. When asking for clarification or assistance, they were very defensive and their general communication was not great. Once they sort that out, I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment as a great place to stay.
A perfect apartment with a perfect location.

Covenant Wines and Your Dinner Table
Covenant Cabernet Sauvignon is perhaps the finest example of the meticulous care paid to all Covenant Wines. The winery's flagship bottle, Covenant Cabernet Sauvignon is produced using the fruits of a three-acre plot from the famous Larkmead Vineyard in Napa Valley. The varietal features notes of licorice, plum, and cassis with butterscotch, and pairs well with creamy pasta, roast beef or lamb, and grilled eggplant with Portobello mushrooms. Made solely from free-run wine and aged in French oak barrels for 18 to 20 months, Covenant Wines Cabernet Sauvignon is perfect to drink as is, but can also be cellared for eight to ten years.
Covenant Winery
Covenant Winery also produces a unique Laven-Chardonnay, as well as Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon under their "Covenant Red C" label. Covenant's complexly-smooth Laven-Chardonnay features vanilla, pear, citrus, and hazelnut notes, and pairs flawlessly with duck and other poultry. Red C Cabernet Sauvignon offers Covenant Winery opulence at an accessible price point for any oenophile, and Red C Sauvignon Blanc is a twist on classic flavors with citrus, herbs, and passion fruit. Featuring a refreshingly-clean, crisp palate, Covenant's Sauvignon Blanc is ideal with light dishes like seafood.
Beautiful young but with enough integrity to age well, Covenant offers luxurious quality at prices that are simply unmatched for the taste. Try a bottle of original Covenant Wine or Covenant Red C from JWines today.

A place for respite, meditation and self-realization, the western Douglas County nonprofit A Sanctuary Center has made the necessary steps with the county to preserve its 13-year-old spiritual retreat in Sedalia for years to come.
Following unanimous approval by the county commissioners July 30, John and Sue Pfeiffer were happy to see their property's zoning changed from business to open space, giving them comfort that the retreat will be protected long after they are gone.
The sanctuary, which sits on 3.93 acres near the intersection of West Wolfensberger Road and North Perry Park Road, is free and open to the public. Funded in part by a grant from Great Outdoors Colorado, it is home to 1½ miles of walking trails, a labyrinth, numerous places to rest and regroup as well as a small concrete structure with a lending library filled with motivational and philosophical literature that is open from dawn to dusk daily.
"We have about 3,000 to 5,000 people a year go out there," said John Pfeiffer, one of six board members who head up the family-run nonprofit. "They walk, read, reflect and renew. ... It is non-religious, and everyone is welcome."
Filled with a peaceful, positive energy, the tucked-away locale has parking spaces for up to a maximum of six or seven cars, allowing all visitors to have their own quiet space on the property.
A vision of Sue Pfeiffer's, the land previously was home to an old one-room schoolhouse from 1900 to 1958. The Pfeiffers, just the third owners since, still pay tribute to the schoolhouse through the placement of two old desks and a potbellied stove, along with an accompanying plaque on the northwest corner of the land.
"This place is just for the individual to come out here, it's not for mass meetings or anything like that," John Pfeiffer said. "The people have really taken ownership of this, too. We are just the gardeners."
As for the zoning change, Pfeiffer said he "just wanted to make it a little more difficult to make it a Johnson's Corner another 50 years down the road from now."
The only hesitation by the commissioners in approving the change was due to a land regulation on the books that Chairwoman Jill Repella said she wants to change, which states that when a parcel is considered open space, adjacent business parcels must oblige a 60-foot setback on their own land.
Following confirmation from the county's principal planner, Kati Rider, that if the commissioners change that regulation, all businesses will retroactively not have to abide to any setbacks, commissioners approved the change 3-0.
