Women: UN Women Executive Board Second Regular Session; Agenda item 4 – Evaluation
Mrs. Marianne Peters
Senior policy advisor of the Kingdom of the Netherlands
to the United Nations
Agenda item 4 – Evaluation
UNWOMEN Executive Board Second Regular Session
NEW YORK, 17 September 2013
Mr President, Madam Executive Director
I have the honour to deliver this statement on behalf of Belgium, Canada, Finland, Israel, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, United Kingdom and my own country the Netherlands.
Thank you Mrs. Inga Sniukaite for your presentations of the Evaluation of the Contribution of UN Women to Prevent Violence Against Women and Expand Access to Services and to Mr. John Hendra for UN Women's management response.
We particularly welcome the opportunity to openly discuss these documents and UN
Women's work in this area, which will remain one of UN Women's priorities for the next years.
Violence affects the lives of millions of women and girls worldwide and in all social economic classes. It cuts across cultural and religious barriers, impeding the ability of women and girls to participate on an equal footing in society. Unfortunately, women and girls around the world continue to face violence every day, and throughout their lives.
Our countries find UN Women's work in this area important and support it.
Allow me to highlight some issues that are of particular importance to us.
- The report mentions the important contributions of UN Women and its predecessor in enhancing the normative frameworks, assisting governments in targeting Violence Against Women, expand access to services and increasing awareness of public supportfor elimination of Violence Against Women .
- The report also mentions that UN women's mandate for coordination and promoting accountability in the area of Violence Against Women needs further clarification. We find this an important issue and encourage UN Women to continue to clarify its focus and to strengthen its profile, in line with the new strategic plan.
- In our view the recommendation to focus and strategise country level activities deservesattention. It is important that UN Women maximize the benefits of its limited resources and work with partners within and outside of the UN system to leverage resources and impact. Such efforts would not only contribute to effectiveness of its efforts but at the same time enhance its coordination mandate at the field level.
- We encourage UN Women, in their role as Coordinator for the UNiTE campaign, to look at mechanisms for developing a robust division of labor between the various UN partners working to address violence against women.
- To that end, we would also encourage UN Women to look strategically at the UN Trust Fund to Eliminate Violence Against Women and how it can be used to maximum impact.
- We would like to encourage UN Women to strengthen its work on prevention of Violence Against Women, i.e. addressing the root causes of gender inequality. In our view this includes changing norms, attitudes and behaviors, working with men and boys as well as addressing the links between prevention of VAW and women's economic empowerment, women's participation and sexual and reproductive health and rights.
- We strongly support the development of an EVAW- strategy for both internal and external use. It will help bring focus to UN Women's efforts in this area, clarify its mandate and guide approaches in the field. This strategy would also be useful in further clarifying how UN Women's work related to the UNiTE campaign, and its work related to the Trust Fund, are integrated with, and inform, the rest of their efforts to prevent and respond to violence against women.
- Finally we support the recommendation to strengthen results based management practices, including results monitoring and reporting, evaluation, and knowledge management. We commend UN Women with the progress achieved in these areas, like the results based, annual, country level work plans. We encourage UN Women to continue building the capacity of its staff for implementing this results based management approach.
Thank you.

Smelly Jelly 1fl oz Scents
8 Colors
More From Smelly Jelly Scents
Customer Reviews
Comments: The first time I purchased this i used it on small roboworms for dropshots & texas rigging. I can tell you the stuff really smells like really bad the only reason why I know of this is i left the lid open and it spilled all over my bag. The smell stayed after multiple washes so if durability is your issue don't hesitate this stuff works but i keep it inside two baggies just to be safe.
From: Dexter: Menifee, CA 5/8/15
Comments: I don't believe in any 'short cuts' with bass fishing, but there is a clear and huge advantage in using smelly jelly. Unfortunately, it's not as easy to find in stores as it once used to be. However, whenever I put this stuff on my plastics or even the swimbait tail, I have noticed a HUGE difference in bite to skunk ratio. I have gone hour without using the Smelly Jelly, and finally on the same night when I applied some on my plastic or swimbait tail I get a bite within 20-30 minutes with the same technique. I would say it helps about 20-25% somehow
From: Allen: Castaic, CA
Comments: I'd like to start by saying I am still learning how to fish for large mouth bass and I am always doing my homework to learn more and more about how to succeed in doing so. I learned that bass can smell much greater then a dog so by touching all my baits I realized a human scent can make a bass very suspicious. I did my homework on different kinds of scents and I seen how good reviews this smelly jelly is and how effective it was. The first day I went fishing with this product I have scene such a difference, not only did it block human scent it seemed to draw the bass in! I was bed fishing water was very clear and one of the bass I actually seen pick up the weight I had put smelly jelly(drop shot rig) and tried to take off with it! Don't hesitate to buy this, I got the bass feast and boy does it smell!
From: Johnny: Burbank, CA
Comments: Smelly Jelly is probably the best scent masker on the market. I've been using it for over a decade, and the little 1 ounce jars are just the right size for the various tackle bags I use (tubes, cranks, wacky, etc.) when I go light and solo. The gel really does stay on the lure for many casts, and it effectively will mask any bad scent you may accidentally get on your lure. I ran a little unofficial test a few years back with a friend: we both fished the same color 1/16ounce twistertails for crappie. I caught 25 fish using the jelly, he caught 5 on another product. That sold me for life. Give this stuff a try...it really works.
From: John: Jefferson, NJ
Comments: I have had a lot of luck with bass feast. It might smell bad to a human but to a fish it is irresistible.

I like writing about slow cookers. Over the many years I have been writing recipes, I have become good friends with my crock pot. It's reliable, efficient, and has helped keep me organized through some pretty hectic times. Before I started writing recipes, I didn't use it for much more than cholent, and some odd dinners when I knew I would be away. Lately though, crock pots are a "hot" topic with food writers, so I started experimenting more and more. Suffice it to say, I am now a fan. They are simple to use, slow cooked food somehow always tastes great, and the best part is that it's warm just when you need it.

My name is Heather Egan and it appears we are related through the Moodys. I just sent this message via the email you have listed, but thought I'd also post a message here just in case my email gets put into your spam filter. I found your contact information on the memorial page for Leonadus Moody. You had written that you had a photo of him and his brothers. I found a copy of that photo on Ancestry.com. You had also mentioned that you have a photo of Pam Moody and his wife and family. Pam Moody is my 3rd great grandfather through his daughter Lela. If you are able to scan and send a copy of that photo to me via email I will be ever so appreciative.
Thank you so much for your time,
Heather :)

How did you locate his parents information?
Hi Sue,
Could you tell me how you know who his parents are or where I could find that information? He's currently the furthest in my family tree creation
that I have information on and I'm trying to trace the Coy side back further. Any information on the John Coy 1725-1787 & Sarah Woodbury 1723-1787 would be amazing!! Thanks in advance!

The Emery County Business Chamber hosted their first Lunch and Learn of the year and guest speakers were Dallen Skelley of Beehive Homes and Larry Davis, principal at Emery High. Kelly Reid, of the Smoke Pit bbq catered the event.
Julie Jones is the chairman of the business chamber for 2013. She welcomed everyone to the meeting and introduced the speakers. Skelley said he has a great staff and he introduced those he brought with him to the meeting. He opened Beehive Homes in Price five and a half years ago and four years ago he purchased Turnquist in Elmo. "I love Emery County. We make our home in Elmo. We love to be involved and give service to our community. At Beehive Homes that's what we do is give service every day to our residents. We assist with all the daily needs of our residents. We love being a part of Carbon and Emery counties and taking care of people," said Skelley.
Larry Davis spoke next, he said he was asked to explain how the programs at Emery High operate along with the support of the business community. "I have been the principal of Emery High for five years. Before that I spent eight years as principal at Canyon View and 14 years teaching language arts at Emery High. It's very rewarding to work with children and parents and the business community. We very much appreciate the support of the Emery County businesses. We would not be as successful as we are without the support of the businesses. We would not be as competitive. Students have several opportunities to be involved in extra-curricular activities at the school. The school as a whole is only as good as all of the parts including clubs and athletic organizations. There is school board policy on fundraising and we follow those guidelines. There are many demands put on the school district, so these alternative means of raising funds is important. The board provides guidelines for the safety of the students."
Principal Davis told of a contributor at Cottonwood High that had donated $5 million to the football program and was a football coach at the school also. When their school board said there was a $450 donation limit he hauled all the equipment he had bought to East High and gave it to them.
"We try to limit fundraising as much as possible. Policy states door to door fundraising is allowed in daylight hours only and in groups. Students are not allowed to enter homes, but must wait outside.
"Title 9 requires that both boys and girls sports be kept in balance. We like to see service oriented activities in exchange for funding. There are 22 clubs and organizations that are non Utah High School Athletic Association, there are 14 athletic teams which are UHSAA. We participate in region 15 which includes, Richfield, Grand, South Sevier and San Juan. Everywhere we travel is a long ways. If an organization wants to do a fundraiser they must fill out an application that states their goals, how long the fundraiser will last along with any comments and signed by their advisor. This application is also faxed to the superintendent so they are aware of what's going on. We get calls all the time from people who want to know where the money is going. Each club funds itself. Some of the sports get the gate receipts and after expenses that money goes to that sport. There is a student activity participation fee the students pay at registration and that money is used to fund organizations and assemblies. They will pay a $25 participation fee for each sport and that money goes into the fund for that sport. The students will only pay two of the participation fees even if they participate in three or more sports.
"Students are required to purchase all other items beyond uniforms. The concessions go to organizations including inside the Spartan Center to baseball and FFA and football concessions go to softball. The banner sales around the football field go to football. The school district doesn't provide any funding for any of the school clubs, organizations and teams. They will sometimes help the auto mechanics kids go to out of state competitions. The state basketball this year will be held the first rounds at Orem High and the second round at Southern Utah University. Wrestling will spend two days at the Sevier Valley Center and two days at state at the Utah Valley University. Overnight accommodations and meals are expensive. These teams represent our schools at the highest level. The school district will provide transportation to these events," said Davis.
Principal Davis explained how each year they prepare a list of projects they would like to see completed and the school district helps fund these extra projects if funds are available. Last year they installed new lights for the football field.
Principal Davis went through each sport and explained how they are supported. In girls tennis there is no fundraising and the expenses are met by the participants. They have a budget of $600 for balls. The school district helped with a wind screen for the tennis courts. Cross Country doesn't fundraise and expenses for uniforms and shoes are covered by the participants. In golf they have a golf clinic which raises money for the team. This money is used to buy golf balls.
Football is a huge expense. Costs add up there very quickly, they receive the gate fees and the money from the selling of business banners around the field. Volleyball receives the gate fees and they sell posters containing the schedules of the sports with business advertising on the posters.
The swim team is the newest sport at the school. They have come a long way and are now in their fifth year. The boys won region last year. Laryssa Guymon placed at state. They sell T-shirts, concessions during the free swim day for the fair and they might begin selling banners to place around the pool. They have a few corporate sponsors so they can purchase swimwear and warm-ups and pay for tournaments. Benefits to businesses include support of the sport and advertising.
Boys basketball sells banners and receives the gate fees. Girls basketball receives the gate fees and donations to the team in exchange for business names on the girls basketball warm-ups. The wrestling team sells Idaho potatoes for a fundraiser. Drill team is expensive to participate in they have sponsors and they put on a 5K fundraiser run during the summer and they charge a gate fee for their spring show. They also cleaned up the Nielson Construction yard for a donation and they help at the county fair and rodeo selling concessions for a donation. Drill team costs each participant about $750 and $20,000 is budgeted for drill.
The baseball team sells gold cards with discounts from local businesses. This money is used for tournament expenses and purchase of new equipment. Bats can cost $300-$400 a bat and the rules for bats change about every season and new bats must be purchased.The track team sponsors the fundraiser where they have the hypno hick come and do a show. The school board is paying for new starting blocks and auto timers for track. The yearbook sells ads in the yearbook to raise funds. The cheerleaders sell products and services and do projects and they are paid for them. FFA sells concessions and they have increased their members and have 65 new members this year.
The UHSAA has a raise the bar banner and Emery High has earned a gold star and is well on their way to earning another one. "It's all about giving back to our community we have many community service projects throughout the year. The Sterling Scholars sponsor a blood drive twice a year, the student council sponsors a food drive, the honor society cleans the road on SR-29. The student council hosts fundraisers within the school for a fund that helps students at the school. There is a campaign to raise funds to help build a new school in Belize and students are going there this summer to work on the school. We try to support our local businesses wherever we can. Emery High and its stakeholders should support local businesses. We should look local first when making purchases. We try to recognize all sponsors at school events and ask those attending to look around at the signs and be aware of who supports the school and patronize those businesses. We need to do more to recognize these sponsors. I am going to see that these sponsors get notes and letters of appreciation from the clubs and students. We need to follow up with thank yous. The schools represent the community and the county. The school represents all of us and its important for the students to understand that and make our school the best it can be and our business community the best it can be," said Principal Davis.
Jones thanked everyone for coming and reminded everyone the March lunch and learn will be at night and will be the installation banquet and business award night. This will be a night meeting on March 21 and will be held at the recreation building in Castle Dale. The door prizes were given away next and Phil Fauver won the Emery High hoodie, Dawn Manzanares-won $25 in Emery County bucks to be used at any Emery County participating business. Beth Seager won $25 Emery County Bucks. Jesse Jones won the Nook Color. These winners were from entries from the Shop at Home campaign, watch for cans at local businesses and enter. Drawings will continue throughout the year.

By COREY BLUEMELStaff writer
Congestive heart failure, that is what Stan Roberts was told nine years ago. With his extensive medical background, he knew what he was facing. Out of shear coincidence, the cardiologist who was telling him the diagnosis was Dr. Mackie, a physician he had worked with at the Emery Medical Center years before.
Stan was born in New Mexico, and lived in Wyoming and Colorado growing up. In 1950, when he was 17, his family happened to be living in Price. He joined the Navy and spent the next 20 years as a medical corpsman on submarines. Following his retirement from the Navy, he returned to this area and began his life outside the service.
In 1971, the first physicians assistant class was started, and Stan was in it. With the medical background from the military, he did very well in the class. He went on to work as a PA, not only in Emery County, but on the Alaskan Pipeline for a year as well.
When he returned to Emery County in 1974, he worked as a PA with Dr. Mackie and many others at the Emery Medical Center until 1977. He then became a hunting guide, and he especially loved to build custom rifles. He made custom guns for a great number of people in this area.
In 1998, when his heart problems began, he had to cut back doing the things he loved. Dr. Mackie did everything to try and keep Stan going. Along the way, Stan had quintuple bypass surgery, and then a pacemaker/defibrillator installed inside his chest. Stan also suffered seven heart attacks during this period.
The process of congestive heart failure means the heart will begin to deteriorate over time, and Stan began to feel the effects. Those symptoms are no appetite, no energy, swelling of the legs, and sleeping all the time. Dr. Mackie directed Stan to the Utah Artificial Heart Program and Dr. James Long.
Stan was past the age of eligibility for a heart transplant, and was informed of a new procedure for heart patients over the age of 65 when transplantation is not an option. The left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is an electric heart assist device designed to pump blood to the body in patients with a failing left ventricle. The LVAD is approved by the FDA for use as temporary support in patients waiting for heart transplantation as well as for patients who are not eligible for cardiac transplantation.
LVAD is a pump which is installed in the abdomen to assist the heart in its operation. The electrical power supply is maintained outside the body with batteries or hook-up to the power base. Stan is the first Emery County resident to get LVAD installed.
"If I could tell everyone in Emery County one thing I would tell them that if they are in congestive heart failure, call me at 384-2825 and I will answer any questions. This program is great, it gave me a new life. I will see that they get referred to the program," said Stan.
As it happens, Stan is not only the first person in Emery County to get LVAD, he is the 200th patient to receive LVAD at the Utah Artificial Heart Program. Stan is one of three dozen patients in 10 states living everyday with LVAD. He came home from the hospital on June 4 and says he is getting stronger everyday and is thankful to have his life back.
Dona Ralphs-Roberts, Stan's wife, said, "Without this, I would be a widow. People need to know that this is available. It not only adds to one's life, but it adds quality to that life." She said the system comes with the power base to use during the time at home and when sleeping. It also has six sets of batteries to allow Stan to do the things he wishes to do outside the home.
Carolyn Hanny, a registered nurse and Stan's nurse coordinator, accompanied Roberts home from the hospital. Hanny spent several days in the area training emergency responders how to handle any situation that may arise with Stan. Hanny trained the Ferron fire department and EMTs, the staff at Emery Medical Center, the Castleview Hospital emergency room staff, and the Carbon ambulance service. For more information about the program call Stan at 384-2825 or log on to www.uahp.com.

REPORT CARD DAY: Forwards
Ryan Lambert
April 22 2011 05:47PM
Now obviously it would be at least semi-reasonable to throw a blanket over everything with something like a D+ grade for everyone, and I'd probably get very little in the way of argument from anyone who watched this team for 82 games. It wasn't, to put it lightly, a pretty season.
But not EVERYONE had a bad year. No, no, it's true. Not everyone did. Odd though that may seem. So now, let's go through the forwards to make sure each and every performance is given its due, good OR bad (almost entirely bad).
(Please note that all players are listed alphabetically, and that each had to have played 33 games, or 40 percent of the season, to get what I consider a fair grade, relative to expectations. Except in the case of goaltenders and players traded to the team, in which case they're all getting a grade because I don't care.)
Player: Mikael Backlund
Stats: 73 games played, 10-15-25, plus-4
Summary: Well, maybe you wanted to see a little bit more out of him but he was often put on lines where he probably shouldn't have been, asked to play roles that he probably shouldn't have been. He was fine this year. That's all. I'd expect to see his offensive role upgraded next year, but this was just kind of a forgettable development season. (Although maybe I'm just saying that because the only real standout game I can remember for him was in October at Detroit.)
Grade: C+
Player: Rene Bourque
Stats: 80 GP, 27-23-50, minus-17
Summary: Well you can say one good thing about Bourque during this whole first-year-of-the-big-contract situation: you could always count on him for a really stupid penalty at the least opportune time, and really play terribly in his own zone. This contract looks like an albatross already, and that's despite his having scored 27 goddamn goals! You have to work really hard to score 27 times in a season and still be considered largely unsuccessful. I just wish Bourque would put all that hard work into not being a moron.
Grade: D
Player: Curtis Glencross
Stats: 79 GP, 24-19-43, plus-6
Summary: A very strong season out of this guy, and probably (hopefully?) his last in a Flames uniform. He had the third-highest shooting percentage on the team, and actually didn't take an alarmingly high number of shots, which is odd. I think this season was almost certainly an aberration given the previous fact and that his career high in goals before this was 15, but still, all credit where it's due. Glencross had a fine, fine season.
Grade: B
Player: Niklas Hagman
Stats: 71 GP, 11-16-27, minus-2
Summary: Not good by any stretch of the imagination. Paying someone $3 million for 11 goals is not acceptable. That was the lowest total in his career since before the lockout by a fairly healthy margin, and either he was playing hurt most of the year (possible) or he can't adapt to Western Conference hockey (probable). In 98 games for Calgary, Hagman has 16 goals and 22 assists. What a waste.
Grade: D+
Player: Jarome Iginla
Stats: 82 GP, 43-43-86, even
Summary: What more praise can be heaped on Calgary's captain? He's the best player in franchise history who had a season filled with milestones, but he can't do it all himself. He had a truly rough start to the season but the fact that he got to better than a point a game and still scored 43 friggin goals tells you reports of Jarome Iginla's demise were monumentally exaggerated.
Grade: A-
Player: Tim Jackman
Stats: 82 GP, 10-13-23
Summary: A fairly strong season outta Timmy Jackman, relative to expectations, at least. He nearly doubled his career high for points, despite getting very little power play time (not surprisingly), and really filled a role that Calgary needed very badly. All for $550,000. I love that that was only the first year of a two-year deal. What a fun player to watch.
Grade: A+
Player: Olli Jokinen
Stats: 79 GP, 17-37-54, minus-17
Summary: I'm sure I'm gonna get killed for this but I really thought Jokinen was fine, especially given the half-decent contract. Everyone expected this to be one of the worst contracts in the league and it wasn't. Getting 54 points from what amounts to a 1B-line center is really pretty reasonable, especially given how the forward talent dropped off a cliff after Iginla and Tanguay. He wasn't at his most effective between those two, but he was occasionally capable of perfectly competent things. Admit it: That's more than you let yourself hope for.
Grade: B
Player: Tom Kostopoulos
Stats: 59 GP, 7-7-14, minus-3
Summary: A guy Calgary basically had to take to make the White trade work, capwise and he wasn't very good. He wasn't bad. He just wasn't good. He was thoroughly just-barely-submediocre. No one cares about Tom Kostopoulos, and no one would even notice he played this season if he hadn't broken Brad Stuart's jaw.
Grade: C-
Player: Brendan Morrison
Stats: 66 GP, 9-34-43, plus-13
Summary: I really thought B-Mo, who Calgary picked up for nothing right before the season started, was the best center they ever found for Iginla and Tanguay. He just kind of gets in good defensive position and lets the good players be good while he stood back and remained 36 years old. That's fine for a guy making as little as he did, and a great way for other centers on this team (Matt Stajan) to start acting.
Grade: C+
Player: Dave Moss
Stats: 58 GP, 17-13-30, plus-9
Summary: Poor Dave Moss. Always getting hurt at the most inopportune times. Every time it seems like he's getting it together, he goes and gets injured in the oddest way, and completely derails. I thought he was having a very good season when he wasn't in the press box, and I guess I should come to expect the latter far more often than the former. In the end, he contributed about exactly the way I would have guessed in October — maybe slightly better — but that's about it.
Grade: C+
Player: Matt Stajan
Stats: 76 GP, 6-25-31, plus-1
Summary: The Worst Flame. And only three more years at $3.5 million. Kill me.
Grade: F-^20
Player: Alex Tanguay
Stats: 79 GP, 22-47-69, even
Summary: What a renaissance season. The perfect compliment to Jarome Iginla. Their chemistry is always obvious and immediate and he needs to be re-signed. I don't care if they push Stajan down a flight of stairs to make it happen. It needs to. No one makes Iginla go like Tanguay does. There's no way he should be allowed to walk.
Grade: A
Player: The rest
Stats: N/A
Summary: I like Craig Conroy. I do not like Ales Kotalik. I do not have much of an opinion on the other forwards apart from the fact that they are mostly young, except for Freddy Modin, who no one even remembered existed until Calgary traded for him.
Grade: Incomplete
(Sometime in the indeterminate future: Coaches and GMs)
If players are being graded against expectations then I am not sure how Morrison gets a C+. Moss, Stajan, Kostoplous, and Backlund probably deserve a bit of a boost as well while Iggy, Jackman, and Jokinen are graded too high imo.
Interesting take though. Thanks for posting.
an f for stajan, you realy shouldn't pick on him like that. its not very nice to bully the kids that belong on the special bus.
April 22 2011, 06:43PM
I thought Morrison was better than a C+. Kostopolous and Backlund might be a bit higher as well. Stajan you cannot grade low enough, he is horrible. I don't think anyone was graded too high either!
April 22 2011, 08:23PM
I'll admit it...grudgingly...Jokinen wasn't bad this year. He might even enter decent territory next season if Langkow is doing the heavy lifting more than him. He improved on the PP which is where I always hoped he be decent as well.
I expected more out of the article. I think the logic that went into the grading is an epic fail. How you give Jokinen a B is solid, but Bourque played through a concussion and finishes with comparable point totals gets a D? I don't get that at all. Best parts of the article revolve around Stajan though, I spewed a mouthful of water after reading the Stajan & the stairs part. Pure gold there.
For a team that didn't make the playoffs these grades are pretty high.
If I was grading a team and they ended the season 14th in the league, they would get a solid C.
Great Article.
I think backlund was better than my expectations, so maybe a B to a B+, C+ to me means he gave exactly what you thought he would. I think he did more given his poor positioning in the line up.
Iggy, its hard not to give him a high grade with all the milestones, plus the expectation by the mainstream media was that he would completely fall off, so no complaints there.
Stajan, is an epic fail.
Jackman, deserves every bit of that A+,
Bourque was below expectations, and had long stretches of Kotalik like play, which brings his grade down.
As for Moss, his point totals surprise me, thought it would have been higher. His overall play was as expected, but given the injuries and the points totals, probably a fair grade.
Overall not as negative as I thought the grades would be, but thats judging on points. Lets judge on effort and smart plays and then we can see the F's start to come out!
April 23 2011, 11:31PM
For a team that didn't make the playoffs these grades are pretty high.
If I was grading a team and they ended the season 14th in the league, they would get a solid C.
He's not grading the team as a whole; he's grading each player on how they did in comparison to what was considered reasonable expectation prior to the season's start.
Morrison is your best centre, every comment you make about him is positive, and he gets a C? But Jackman get's an A+ for half as many points because of the cheapness of his contract?
MORRISON IS DIRT CHEAP, by that logic he should get an A++++++++.
Oh, and seriously, A- for Iggy? It was his best year in a long time, he dragged the flames kicking and screaming into playoff contention, get rid of the minus, seriously.
What kind of goofball rating system is this, who has the best haircut? All over the place. Based on stats for some players, expectations for others, personality for others yet. Pretty much useless analysis.

This week, Seth Godin made a rare appearance in the UK and I was lucky enough to bag myself a ticket. I've been a huge fan of Seth's since reading his book 'Purple Cow' 4 or 5 years ago and applying many of the principles within it to my own business. Since then I've read a number of his books including Lynchpin and most recently, The Icarus Deception, the book this event was based on.
Seth has inspired me for a number of years so I was keen to see him live. I wasn't disappointed.
The Icarus Deception deals with the fact that we are living in a revolution and that most people are struggling to see it. We are moving from an Industrial Economy (think big brands, big spends, loud marketing noise) where everything revolves around greater efficiency, cheaper products and where people are pushed to be average, to what Seth terms the Connection Economy where the connections you make and the opportunities you take to create 'Art' will be the most important element to your success in the future. The problem is, not enough people create art.
So what is art? Art is something new. Art is being different. Art is something you made before others. Art is something you probably tried to create time and time again, not being afraid to fail along the way. Are you making art?
A particular theme that interested me is that as we grow up we're taught not to make art. Schools are there to teach us to stand in straight lines, to conform, not to speak up but to go through the system – junior school, high school, university, job. When are we told its ok to make a ruckus? I certainly can't remember being given that instruction. The title of the book, the Icarus Deception refers to the Greek myth about Icarus who was taught, while attempting to escape from Crete, not to fly too close to the sun or his wings would burn and he'd fall into the sea. Of lesser mention is the fact he was also taught not to fly to close to the sea or the mist from the water would make his wings too heavy and the same fate would occur. Where are we teaching future generations to fly? Higher than ever or within their comfort zones, where its nice and safe?
A fascinating story using the company Lego was used as means of an example. Allegedly they were suffering grave problems back in the 80's/90's, as they stuck to their belief that every product they made should be able to be used for at least two different things. We were told the company was almost bought to its knees until one of its team came up with the idea of selling lego model kits that children (and I'm sure a few adults) could put together themselves. The company was saved and why? Because kids want to follow instructions, to make something perfectly, NOT to make art, NOT to stand up with something new and different and say, "I made this"
So what does it take to make art then? It takes the willingness to fail, over and over again (something I wrote about here). It takes grit and determination. It takes the need to overcome your 'lizard brain' and when others say you can't do it, to carry on. It takes the ability to dance with fear (a favourite phrase of mine) and be ok with 'this might not work'.
The Icarus Deception is a fascinating book and one that I'm excited about sharing. I for one embrace the connection economy. Am I creating art? Maybe not enough, but I intend to challenge myself with this question on a regular basis.
Are you creating art? If so, please share it with us, after all, an important part of this economy is to be able to stand up and say, 'I made this', whatever others say.

Frustration mounts over lingering power outages
FARMINGDALE, N.Y. Vincent Pina finally saw a couple of utility trucks coming down his street Thursday and started to wave in anticipation. But they just cruised past his house and kept on going.
He hung his head in resignation.
"The thing that gets me the most is that there is no flood damage. I don't have any branches down. I have no wires down," said the Long Islander, who put a hand-painted sign out front that read: "Still No Power."
So why, he wondered, was it taking so long to get electricity?
A week and a half after Superstorm Sandy slammed the coast and inflicted tens of billions of dollars in damage, hundreds of thousands of customers in New York and New Jersey are still waiting for the electricity to come back on. Some are demanding investigations of utilities they say aren't working fast enough.
An angry New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo joined the calls for an investigation Thursday, ripping the utilities as unprepared and badly managed.
"Privately I have used language my daughters couldn't hear. It's unacceptable the longer it goes on because the longer it goes on, people's suffering is worse."
The power companies have said they are dealing with damage unprecedented in its scope and doing the best they can. And there is no denying the magnitude of what they have done: At the peak, more than 8.5 million homes and businesses across 21 states lost power. As of Thursday, that was down to about 750,000, almost entirely in New York and New Jersey.
And that's after a nor'easter overnight knocked out power to more than 200,000 customers in New York and New Jersey, erasing some of the progress made by utility crews.
"We lost power last week, just got it back for a day or two, and now we lost it again," said John Monticello of Point Pleasant Beach, N.J. "Every day it's the same now: Turn on the gas burner for heat. Instant coffee. Use the iPad to find out what's going on in the rest of the world."
The mounting criticism came as New York City and Long Island followed New Jersey's lead and announced odd-even gasoline rationing to deal with fuel shortages and long lines at gas stations; the Federal Emergency Management Agency started bringing mobile homes into the region; and Cuomo said the storm could cost New York State alone $33 billion.
New Jersey did not have a damage estimate yet, but others have put Sandy's overall toll at up to $50 billion, making it the second-most expensive storm in U.S. history, behind Hurricane Katrina, which swamped New Orleans in 2005.
Sandy killed more than 100 people in 10 states, with most of the dead in New York and New Jersey.
The power industry's defenders have pointed out that Sandy was huge and hit the nation's most densely populated corridor. By the Energy Department's reckoning, it left more people in the dark than any other storm in U.S. history.
It did more than knock down power lines; it flooded switching stations and substations, forcing workers to take apart intricate components, clean them, replace some of them, rewire others and put it all back together. Only after these stations are re-energized can workers go out and repair lines.

Mission StatementThe mission of the University of New Haven Safe Zone Program is to create a safe environment for anyone who is questioning or wishes to celebrate differences in sexuality, sexual identity, and/or gender identity. Through education, outreach, community resources, and identifying allies, we will promote understanding and support to students, faculty, staff and families.
The Meaning Behind the LogoIn the Nazi concentration camps, prisoners were classified according to their "crimes". Jews, for example, wore a yellow star (compound of two triangles); a pink triangle was assigned to gay men. After WWII, wearers of the pink triangle remained imprisoned for years afterward, even after Jews and political prisoners were released. The UNH Safe Zone logo incorporates an upside down triangle, which is symbolic of those pink triangles; it also includes the UNH logo as well as the rainbow (Freedom) flag, which is a international symbol of ending oppression.

Pretty OkayThis product worked well for about two months, though it takes forever to do any real hair reduction on your legs. After I changed the batteries it worked again, but shortly after stopped working entirely. I am going to poke around with it and hope it starts again, but if not I will have to exchange it, seeing as it is too late for a refund.Jan 13, 2013SophieHAIR TYPELight Brown

Awesome For The Price!This is my first time using something like this. I won't lie, it hurts like the dickens when you use it, but I'm guessing it'll be a bit like tweezing your brows - it'll get easier over time. Just as described, and super easy to use. Kinda hard to turn on when your hands are wet, just fyi, but not a huge deal. Thanks!Dec 22, 2012Jessyca D. / United States

Good EpilatorI gave this four stars only because there is a little sensitivity to it until you get used to it. It does a very good job at getting rid of hair - just a little hard around the chin curves. I have tried another epilator and I think although it takes more time and you don't always get completely rid of the facial hairs they are better for your skin than the depilatories. My skin tends to be sensitive. I like this.Jan 10, 2012Susan / Southeast

Great Appliance! Perfect SizeThis is just great. Powerful, but small enough to get to smaller places- works really well on upper lip, and equally well ln bikini line. Very compact and convenient- love it.Dec 8, 2011Kelle F. / Dayton OHHAIR TYPENormal Hair

Smooth Underarms And Bikini Area Plus Waterproof In One PackageWhat can I say about this epilator. To start, the tweezer head of Dolphin is much smaller compared to others that I've tried, which makes getting into every curve of your body much easier to navigate. It comes with batteries, so you can use it right away without having to wait for the unit to fully charge. You will always have the option to buy a separate plug unit if there's ever a need for it. Dolphin actually has less tweezers, 18 sets to be exact, compared to others, but honestly, I didn't see the lack of performance due to the tweezer sets being less. The last selling point was the price. At the cost of $29.95, the price of the Dolphin is a little more than a third of the cost compared to others on the market. So if you always wanted to own an Emjoi, but don't want to break the bank for it, Dolphin's definitely the best alternative to consider if you're in the market for an epilator.

In Utah many ranchers still graze cattle on huge tracts of open range. Horses are a necessary tool for managing these cattle outfits because of the ruggedness of the terrain. Many ranches, depending on the size of the business, maintain horse herds of 15-60 animals. It is necessary to develop top quality ranch horses that can accomplish many types of athletic tasks. At the same time, it is important for owners, managers, cowboys, and other ranch personnel to learn the skills to handle livestock in a low-stress manner from horseback. This includes using a lariat as a restraining tool where no other facilities are available. Educational opportunities are available for interested people to learn about using horses to handle livestock in a low stress manner.

I was a huge Top 40 and Scooby Doo fan as a kid. I am glad his suffering is over and if Jean abused or neglected him, I want her punished. I agree with everyone else that this is going to get really ugly.ReplyCancel
Tina- i never listened to his show, and my only connect with him was when my own children went thru their Top 40 stage. But. When US went into military action in 1992, and deployed to Arab countrues, they were face to face with very different customs, obviously. So there was talk shiw, casey was on with some soldiers, relaying their experiences with new to them culture, and he pooh poohed it, and said to the effect arabs dont pray 5 x a dat, they dont have dietary restrictions, or treat women differently. These solsiers were looking at him incrediously while he kept denying what they said was true. It was just strange, and I never forgot it. And they were only discussing differences in cultures, NOT putting anyone down.ReplyCancel
RIP :'( Why do people have to be so ugly when someone is dying or dead? I will never understand that and I'm glad I wont.ReplyCancel
RIP, and yes, an ugly story is set to come out. His daughter is hard-core $cio. :/
@Rhysie, $$$ always makes the grieving process easier for the greedy. Sad but true.ReplyCancel
Kasem was Lebanese Christian, so he had no dietary restrictions & didn't have to pray 5 times a day. Plus the Lebanese Christians always treated their women well as their culture had been heavily influenced by decades of French interference in that country.
40 years ago, you would see Lebanese women on the beaches of the Mediterranean in bikinis along with all the European tourists.
BTW, the minister at the wedding of Casey & Jean was Jesse Jackson, so that marriage was fucked from the start.ReplyCancel
Do you mean she is CO$? That would change my outsider outlook.ReplyCancel
RIP Casey.
I've heard Casey's daughter Kerri on her radio show with Nikki Sixx and I was shocked to find out that she's 42 years old. I assumed she was a teenager with her "ums", "yeahs" and "likes", and her anecdotes are boring and trivial. It boggles my mind that she co-hosts a national radio show. She comes across like an utter and complete idiot.ReplyCancel
RIP Mr Kasem. Is there any proof other than keeping him alive against a DNR order and away from his family that his wife was abusive? They were married for a long time, so I don't think gold digger is quite the term for her. I can understand someone not being ready to let go when their loved one is ill and their days are numbered. I hope that is all it was with her and not something underhanded.ReplyCancel
I googled the Kerri kasem xenu connection and there are photos of her wearing a xenu shirt and listed as a a member. It was on that tony ortega blog.
I don't think we know all of the details yet.
Jean may have acted nuts but who knows what went on. My hubs kids treat him like shit and if he said I don't want to see them in his final wishes I'd do my best.
She was married to him for 33 years, but had a bf too. Who knows? I loved him as a kid.
Hope the battle doesn't get too ugly with the family. I absolutely hate when that happens. It's just so terrible when everyone's scrambling to get "their" chunk. Or worse yet, on what to do with the poor deceased person & what their wishes were.
I truly hope that his family lets him rest in peace.
So sad. Will always remember that helmet of perfect, dark hair and that amazing voice.ReplyCancel

He just won't STFU will he?
We need to light up this bastard's phone.
McCain's priorities are Mexicans, al Qaeda, and Obama.
The citizens of Arizona deserve a refund.
I'll repost this.
Arizona, what the hell did the rest of the country do to deserve this scumbag? Hes a traitor to his country.
Thats right, Johnnny. You should have sang like a damn canary in Vietnam, since selling out is in your genes. Hurry up and die already, like corpsey Laut. Wed have all been better off if you were still in the Hanoi Hotel. Can we check you back in, you dementia ridden Quisling?
You know what? I'm going to actually start praying that our enemies will go away and let God decide the method.
This wacko bird would like to tell that extremist progressive hobbit-hating SOB to k*ss my *ss.
If our Forefathers were alive today, John McCain wouldn't be. LOL
I saw that and that's the last straw. It's war now.
The twitterati are hammering him hard.
The Republicans need to shut this man up or I will stop voting for Republicans.
And before anyone tell me to respect McCain's service, save it.
Quisling was in the military too. Still a scumbag traitor to his country.
Come on Arizona! What the **** are you waiting for!?!
Kick this POS RINO back under the rock he crawled out from! PRIMARY!!!
....I think that fits the bill as "scriptural"........I like it....
Juan has the gravitas of a hydrogen filled pink balloon with a smiley face on it.
The citizens of Arizona have had enough chances to see under the skirt of Juan. The citizens of Arizona deserve what they got but, the rest of us have to suffer for it.
Senator McCain is a loser, and the people who ran his Presidential campaign are losers.
It figures that McCain would up front in the color guard leading the Democrats' gloat parade.
He also told Brian Williams that Rep. Gohmert was a "man of no intelligence". Shocking, right?
Write to Greta at: email@example.com
Actually, McCain's prorities are McCain, McCain and McCain.....those other issues are just pawns to carve out what he thinks will serve him in the history books....and oh, on Fox News Sunday too.....
I turned to Greta, when I saw his ugly mug, I turned the channel. Molly B on RFD is much more pleasant to look at.
Benedict Arnold had a stellar military career (including being wounded) before going overboard.
Under the agreement, the government would be funded through Jan. 15, and the debt ceiling would be raised until Feb. 7.
McLame needs to be recalled
Section 147 of the Continuing Resolution calls for payment to the widow of multi-millionaire Lautenberg, the amount of $174,000?!?!?
Paying off pimps is what the Senate Republicans voted for today—they don't care about Americans whose premiums are going up 166%, but, they'll pay their friends, huh?
According to Mark Levin-Constitutional expert—10.16.13
It has to be a metaphorical Beeotch Slap to him to let him know we think is a minister without portfolio and that he is shunned...
God may ask if the man being attacked verbally retaliated to defend himself.
There's something that needs to be lit up, but it's not his phone.
Yet the American people should jump for joy that they reached a deal!
The American people were never a thought!
Oops, should read: "he is" a minister without portfolio..
What, and have to wait until 2016? Screw that. RECALL!
If our Forefathers were alive today, John McCain wouldnt be. LOL
If our Forefathers were alive today, they'd take you and me and the rest of us to the woodshed for letting it get this far out of hand.
Then they'd lead us and take care of business.
Juan McCain, the Dems best friend..with "Republicans" like this whats the point of the GOP anymore..if I want to hear people trashing Ted Cruz I can just turn on MSNBC and hear it all day..McCain is an absolute disgrace..Ronald Reagan is turning over in his grave watching what is going on right now with the GOP
Sure would be nice to see Sarah come out against McCain after all she helped elect him.
The Tea Party needs to make removal of prominent RINOs job one. Its obvious no real progress is possible until thats been done.
So they're funneling our damn money to that corpse's wife? How much more of this can we take? Not only did we give up EVERY SINGLE DAMN DEMAND, we actually ended up losing EVEN MORE than we would have originally?
I piss on the Laut's grave!
Hole - your forgot HOLE...
There's a certain North Vietnamese SA-2 crew who would have done the world a favor had their aim been better on October 26, 1967.
I find it interesting that this RINO's trash Cruz and conservatives for their
strategy, but NEVER say what their strategy was/is. One can only assume
surrender was their strategy.
Benedict Arnold was a bonafied Patriot before he sold us out to the British as well ...
My standard reply; "I look forward to reading their obituary."
I was thinking the same thing. This nation would be better off if the enemy had done a better job. Sad that McInsane drives us to this thought.
"One can only assume
surrender was their strategy."
They did not want to fight it! They were drug into the fight by Cruz and Lee!!

Hi, my name is Cory Howell, and I'm the Director of Music at a small Methodist church in Nashville, TN. Back in grad school, I took 2 semesters of NT Greek, mainly to get away from all my musical classes for a short time. I've been interested in learning back what I've forgotten, and to go farther in my Greek studies, but I never seem to find the time (I'm also a full-time dad).
Just stumbled on this forum, and it looks like an excellent resource.

It will be an all-English LV= Cup final in 2012 after Northampton beat the Scarlets 27-12 to set up a showdown with Leicester at Sixways.
It will be an all-English final in the LV= Cup this season after Northampton defeated the Scarlets 27-12 to set up a showdown with Leicester at Sixways.
In a combination which worked to perfection, the experience of older heads like Tom Wood and Stephen Myler proved crucial in setting a platform for younger players such as Scott Armstrong and Alex Waller to show their worth in the semi-final.
With Franklin's Gardens bathed in sunshine and a final as the prize for the winners, both sides opened the game in positive fashion and only James Craig's try-saving tackle on the line prevented the Scarlets from taking an early lead.
The visitors looked sure to open the scoring on a number of occasions as they scythed through the Saints defence but some huge hits, in particular from Paul Diggin, kept the Welsh side at bay in a fast and furious first ten minutes.
As a signal of their intent to progress to the final, Saints used their first penalty in Scarlets territory to kick to the corner and put pressure on the visitors. It was a decision that was to prove well-judged as Saints powered towards the line from the resulting line-out and Waller crashed over for the opening score.
The try was just what the doctor ordered for the Saints who had started on the back foot and the ever-reliable Stephens of Myler and Jones exchanged penalties as the game continued at a rapid pace, giving supporters of both teams plenty to cheer about.
Scarlets had run well from deep in the opening exchanges but mistakes with ball in hand were beginning to give the Saints a platform on which to take the game by the scruff of the neck. It was one of those errors that proved costly as Myler punished them from the tee.
The mistakes from the Welshmen were becoming infectious as Saints conceded a soft penalty for offside straight from the restart to the frustration of Jim Mallinder and his coaching staff. Jones made no mistake with the kick and he reduced the gap to seven points as the game hung in the balance after an enthralling first 40 minutes.
A ten-minute half-time break had evidently done nothing to rid the game of the errors that affected the first half and Jones hauled the Scarlets back to within four points following side entry by the Saints as the hosts inflicted all the damage on themselves.
As annoyed as Mallinder would have been with the previous ill-discipline, so he would have been delighted with his team's response. Excellent work from Vasily Artemyev kept the ball in play on the right-hand touchline and Saints span the ball from right to left looking desperately for the opening. Quick ball was delivered superbly by Martin Roberts and Armstrong was the man over, the young winger diving over the line in the left corner to give the home side their second score.
Another wonderful covering tackle from Diggin stopped Scarlets from hitting back straight away but the full-back was powerless to prevent Jones from reducing the arrears with another penalty goal as the visitors refused to lie down, despite some big hits.
Myler's third penalty was a deserved reward for the Saints after forcing Scarlets into more handling errors and his fourth just minutes later looked set to kill off the visitors' stubborn resistance as the gap between the teams stretched out to twelve points in the final quarter.
Scarlets were in danger of being kicked out of the competition in every sense and as they made efforts to find the score which would get them back into the encounter, they were met with a green, black and gold wall at every turn as the Saints kept them out.
Despite movement on the scoreboard slowing down in the final ten minutes, the action on the field certainly wasn't letting up. James Downey and Scarlets' Dominic Day were both shown yellow in separate incidents before Ryan Lamb slotted through his first penalty to complete the scoring and send the Saints to next weekend's final at Sixways Stadium.

And since when did Chrysler get in the candidate endorsement business?
Actually, neither supposition is accurate… making the brouhaha surrounding Clint Eastwood's "Halftime in America" Super Bowl TV commercial for Chrysler yesterday that much more amusing. Ah, the fights we find ourselves getting into. This seems to be a classic case where politicized punditry and social media combine to crystallize speculative reactions and transform them into a news story. How does this kind of a heated public debate over a non-issue happen?

By Bobby Harrison/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – Mississippi has one of the nation's highest rates of preventable hospitalizations, members of the state House Medicaid Committee were told Monday.
Theresa Hannah, executive director of the Center for Mississippi Health Policy, also told the House Medicaid Committee that the state leads the nation in the number of amputations caused because of complications from diabetes, and while the state is 38th in instances of breast cancer it is fourth in the number of breast cancer deaths.
The problem, the committee was told, is that the state has a high percentage of the working poor who do not receive treatment until their illness has advanced to the point where expensive hospitalization and treatments are the only option.
"In general, uninsured people tend to seek (health care) services less often," Hannah said.
The Medicaid Committee conducted a hearing on whether to expand Medicaid to those earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level or about $15,000 for an individual. The expansion is allowed as part of the federal Affordable Care Act.
The nearly three-hour hearing took place in a room filled with hospital administrators, other health care providers and numerous advocates wearing stickers in support of expansion.
Gov. Phil Bryant has voiced opposition to the expansion, saying the state cannot afford it. On Monday, his chief of staff, Lucien Smith, reiterated Bryant's position, saying "It is not in the long-term best interest of the state" to provide health insurance to more Mississippians through Medicaid.
Yet Mississippi hospitals have expressed concerns about how they could be affected if the state does not expand Medicaid. The Mississippi Hospital Association, which was not asked to participate in the hearing, has pointed out that as part of the federal law a major reduction in federal reimbursements for uncompensated care will be enacted because it assumes people will have health insurance through Medicaid and other alternatives.
But Smith and others told the Medicaid Committee that those rules are still being developed.
Rep. Cecil Brown, D-Jackson, asked if it would make sense to enact a legislative trigger where the expansion would go into effect if the cuts in uncompensated care go into effect.
In a news conference before the hearing, Claude Harbarger, chair of the Board of Governors of the Hospital Association and president of St. Dominic Health Services in Jackson, said Bryant had agreed to work with them on a solution to the problem.
"We must arrive at solutions in this calendar year or face significant reductions in health care services in the state of Mississippi," Harbarger said. "We look forward to working with Gov. Bryant and his team in the days ahead."
Bryant said, "I recognize the situation facing our hospitals and my administration is committed to helping resolve those issues. While I oppose the expansion of Medicaid in our state, I appreciate the hospitals' willingness to sit down with me and my team to discuss alternatives to solving these issues."
According to Hannah, about 40 percent of adults below 138 percent of the federal poverty level have no health insurance. She said these are primarily low-wage workers, including more than 14,400 cashiers, 8,700 cooks, 6,800 construction workers and various other categories of laborers.
She said only 26 percent of businesses employing 50 people or less in Mississippi provide health insurance.
It's estimated that as many as 300,000 additional people could sign up for Medicaid under the expansion. Currently, it serves about 640,000 elderly, disabled, poor pregnant women and poor children.
Under the proposed expansion, the federal government will pay 100 percent of the costs for the first three years, starting in calendar year 2014. By 2020, the federal share will be 90 percent.
But Smith argued that while the federal government is paying the bulk of the costs the state's share of the expansion would take funds from other areas, such as education and law enforcement.
Currently there is no bill alive in the 2013 session to deal with Medicaid expansion, and the Republican leadership of the Legislature and the governor have given no indication of wanting to pass something.
But a reduction in federal uncompensated care could put many hospitals in a tough situation if the state does not act.

Please don't call it Orenthal. The Airblaster OJ Jacket prefers its nickname. You can also just call it 'Juice.' The OJ is all about subtle, classic styling. So classic, in fact, that it's just as happy strolling down main street as it is shredding the terrain park. The 8K-rated waterproofing keeps you dry in light snow, and mesh-lined underarm vents let you dump heat when it's necessary. The OJ's tailored fit is slightly slimmer than traditional snowboard jackets with generous length in the arms and body for full coverage. A mid-body internal drawcord lets you play with the look and feel a bit, and an internal media cord-port takes care of your headphone cord so you don't yank your ears off.

Oriented Policing Services
U.S. Department of Justice
For Immediate ReleaseThursday, March 21, 2002
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Department of Justice Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) today announced the awarding of $50.6 million to fund the hiring of 762 additional law enforcement officers in 116 cities and towns across the country.
"I'm pleased that these communities are able to use COPS funding to advance their community policing efforts and better protect their neighborhoods," said Carl Peed, Director of the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services.
These grants were awarded under the Universal Hiring Program and fund 75% of the total salary and benefits of each new officer over three years, up to a maximum of $75,000 per officer. To date, COPS has funded more than 114,000 officers in more than 12,000 law enforcement agencies in support of making communities safer by helping increase the number of officers on patrol in local jurisdictions.
In addition to funding law enforcement positions, COPS provides critical resources, training, and technical assistance to help local law enforcement implement innovative and effective community policing strategies. COPS has made it possible for over 173,000 officers and community members to be trained through COPS nationwide network of Regional Community Policing Institutes. Recent statistics also indicate that 86% of American communities are served by departments that employ community policing.
