AMES, Iowa — Rental rates for Iowa farmland have been pushed significantly higher by the favorable corn and soybean prices farmers have enjoyed since 2010. This trend continued in 2013, but the rate of increase slowed considerably.
Results from the most recent survey of farmland rental rates conducted by Iowa State University Extension and Outreach showed that the average estimated cash rent for corn and soybean land in the state for 2013 was $270 per acre, an increase of $18 per acre or 7 percent from last year. This compares to increases of 16 percent in 2011 and 18 percent in 2012. Lower crop yields due to prolonged dry weather and lower price forecasts for the 2013 crop have tempered the optimism about prospective profits.
Average rents were moderately higher in all nine crop reporting districts, with increases ranging from 13 percent in east central Iowa to 4 percent in southwest Iowa.
Typical rental rates per bushel of corn yield, soybean yield and CSR point were computed for each county and are available in the full report, Cash Rental Rates for Iowa 2013 Survey. Typical charges for land growing oats and hay, for grazing pasture and corn stalks, and for renting hunting rights are also included in the report.
The intent of the Iowa State survey is to report typical rents being paid each year, not the highest nor the lowest values heard through informal sources. Rental values were estimated by asking people familiar with land rental markets what they thought were typical rates in their county. The number of responses received this year was 1,703, a 20 percent increase from last year. Of the total responses, 50 percent came from farmers, 27 percent from landowners, 13 percent from professional farm managers, 8 percent from agricultural lenders, and 2 percent from other professionals.
The Cash Rental Rates for Iowa 2013 Survey is available online as a downloadable document from the Ag Decision Maker website www.extension.iastate.edu/agdm/ and the Extension Online Store at https://store.extension.iastate.edu/.
Other resources available for estimating a fair cash rental rate include the Ag Decision Maker information files Computing a Cropland Cash Rental Rate (C2-20), Computing a Pasture Rental Rate (C2-23) and Flexible Farm Lease Agreements (C2-21). All documents include electronic decision tools to help analyze leasing questions.

I know it's not what you want to hear, but the problem is not your sights, it's you. Changing the sights will only be a band-aid and not solve the real issue.
In my opinion there is no reason to put adjustable sights on a compact pistol.
If you want a Glock in.40 with adjustable sights, that will help you group better @ 25 yards, get a Glock 35.
Now, should you ignore this and go shopping for adjustable sights any way....
Check out Dawson Precision, they have some adjustable sights:

This has been so far the worst year for duck hunting that I can remember.
I have not shot a duck this year and alot of my friends say the same. We have come to the conclusion that the wet snow we had in early Sept flatten all the crops up north. the farmers are having a tough time getting any of these crops off and the ducks are staying put. The snows are down by the thousands which is early for them. Hopefully Oct. will bring better hunting. With the warmer winters we have had the past 5 years we are actually starting to see ducks winter over here staying on the rivers which have not been freezing over. If the farmers don,t start getting thier crops off we will probably see alot more birds staying over .

Gov. Terry Branstad says military veterans are finding jobs in Iowa. Branstad said Monday that 23 veterans have gotten jobs through the Home Base Iowa program, which he signed into law this year. The program is designed to make it easier for veterans to transition into civilian jobs in the state.
Under Home Base Iowa, federal retirement pay is exempted from state income taxes and it makes it easier to obtain licenses for civilian jobs based on military training. In addition, businesses may grant a preference in hiring and promotion of veterans and some spouses.
There will be a job fair for veterans on Thursday in Davenport. At least 35 employers are expected to attend.

After Arsenal's 3-2 win over Aston Villa on Sunday, we asked fans to share their thoughts on the game via Twitter.
Many of you got in touch and below is a selection of those comments.
If you don't already follow us on Twitter and want to have your say, you can find us here: @Arsenal
@GoonerIrish - I voted Rosicky for MotM. I think he's an excellent player who doesn't always get the deserved praise. Hope he stays.
@Benmania1 - Rosicky had a good game against Man Utd and also yesterday. He makes our attack so sharp and fast.
@SpekzeeUK - That was as good a second half as I've seen Arsenal play for a long time! Showed some real hunger to go through to the next round.
@ryan_love_ - Rosicky has been very good recently. With Wilshere out and Ramsey clearly in need of a rest, an extended run could see him back to his best.
@arsenalaction – Oxlade-Chamberlain has been outstanding recently.
@ThomasCraigHall - Oxlade-Chamberlain is the future. Quality player.
@jcav90 - Massive game from Mertesacker. So many headers won and interceptions made.
@JRSinghG - Pleasing to see Koscielny doing so well. Mertesacker had a SOLID game too.
@charlotte_c1109 - So glad Arsenal pulled through in the second half today. Not even to draw, getting the win is so good!
@alexcauchi - Arsenal can win the FA Cup with this side, especially with Man City and United out.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

|General Technical Chat This section is for technical discussions relating to general maintenance, electrical issues, engine trouble, and recalls.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
'I'm assuming there was an air pocket of some sort that chopped up and foamed up the fluid on me by what you're implying?'
You got it. The pump absolutely cannot be allowed to whine at all. Once you suck air the pump continues to shred it smaller and smaller. The longer you run motor the worse that gets. Best to fill and let sit to deaerate what is in reservoir, then start car up and rack from limit to limit ONE TIME and let sit again 30 more minutes. Only as little engine running as it takes to pump fluid in.
Done right you fill up and two times rack limit to limit with 2 sits and no air at all in it, drive the wheels off. I've never had air issues in all the years of doing that.
When empty you have to fill it QUICK, I use somebody else to start the car and several bottles of fluid open to throw them in as quick as possible.
I tell people to think of the PS pump as an engine oil pump..........would you crank up engine empty of oil? Really the same thing going on there.
|I've never had a power steering pump failure either. This car didn't have any issue leading up to the change. I wanted to put new fluid in as I know the previous owner did next to nothing for general maintenance. Let me tell ya, it was not pretty some of the color that came out. I'm assuming there was an air pocket of some sort that chopped up and foamed up the fluid on me by what you're implying? The way it was foamy in such short time wouldn't quite make sense except for air being chopped up allover the place. I consider myself an intermediate to advanced backyard mechanic, but maybe I did rush it a bit too much. She'll be getting a pretty good flush at this point. I got some Mercon V and she is back and business purring like a champ.
Sorry, owner competence issue there bucko, I assure you the type of fluid there had absolutely ZERO to do with those issues. By your description, an incompetent drain and fill the problem there. I saw it all day long at the parts stores and using the CORRECT fluids.
The new conventional wisdom has people gone stupid. If you whine the pump AT ALL you have screwed up, people refuse to accept that since it is commonly thought when a power steering pump whines all it needs is fluid only and nothing else. Absolutely the worst thing you can think there..................whine at ALL = damage, one either gets that or has problems, like here.
I haven't lost a power steering pump in 45 years, and I routinely change fluid to use whatever I have lying around. I'd throw ATF+4 in there in a second.
|I had this leftover brand new bottle of ATF+4. I did some searches on whether I could use it where Mercon ATF is required. I found some posts saying I should be fine and nothing saying othewise. Well upon flushing her out and running the bottle through my car with this stuff, it is absolutely incompatible in every way shape and form. The pump sounds like it's running dry, it's just a pile of foamy crap in the reservoir. It actually boils over when you shut the car off and makes a nice mess. So now I finally got rid of that container of ATF+4, but still need to go out and buy the proper stuff for my car
Yes...........other than Honda late model with specific requirements, the door is wide open on PS fluid, almost anything will work. I have mixed so many types you wouldn't believe it. ZERO issues. The big problem I find is when someone drains the fluid, they do not recognize just how quick the pump can pump empty and just like an engine, try pumping it dry of lube and if unlucky that day you damage the engine within 5 seconds of running dry and possibly even faster. When filling up a PS pump you have to stand right over the inlet with preopened bottles to choke that sucker as fast as you can until enough volume in there to not run dry. I use a second person starting car to not have to run around car as fast. If you get the oil in there fast enough often no or little moan at all, when you pump it full of air by filling slowly you then risk damage as pump essentially trying to run dry then.
The only pump I've ever had to change in 40 years was because I did not realize this and pumped it dry for a second while I started the car and then took my happy time getting out to fill, thinking the moan was nothing. It is the sound of METAL ON METAL when the usual separating oil is gone......................once the damage is done then they moan all the time because metal parts are hitting that should not be touching at all. Mild seizure damage. Pump will still work but at reduced ability depending on level of mechanical damage there.
|amc your right about honda p/s fluid. i do so many rebuilds and replaces because they leak and people put the wrong stuff in, but you can use honda/acura ps fluid in other vehicles, my zx3 has acura fluid in it due to pump replacement. was leaking bad when i got the car.
Change to any fluid you want, they are all the same basic oil weight and the noise will not go away, only by possibly changing the basic weight by using like Lucas will the noise possibly change. But the steering effort will be affected too..........
The noise if constant is from wear, or a badly remachined rebuild, or air in lines. If noise is only at rack limit it is normal, and an expectation of no noise there is abnormal. Pumps that are tight and have running surfaces that fit right on are quiet. Solid oil with no air in it helps too.
Your question would be answered in the previous posts of this thread. Do a flush / replacement of your fluid replace with ATF and see how that helps.
One thing not mentioned in this thread is the use of Lucas Oil additive. I have found this cuts down the noise but also due to its thicker state cold driving requires more muscle.
|I can't tell you how long I've been looking for someone to address the horrible Ford PS groan...so what would you recommend I use for my power steering fluid? I hate to seem stupid but after so long my degree of bluntness is necessary. I'd really appreciate the insight!

Arsène Wenger was not quietly celebrating when both Manchester clubs were knocked out of the Champions League.
Only Arsenal and Chelsea remain in the competition from England having secured top spot in their respective groups to confirm their places in the last 16.
But while some might think Wenger enjoyed his domestic rivals' failure to progress, the Frenchman insists there are few real benefits for his side.
"For England and all the clubs it is better that we are in because we get points and it is vital that we keep four teams in Europe," he said.
"By going out early it damages our chances to be in Europe with four teams. Financially it is a bit of an advantage if you go through because you share what you get by two rather than by four.
"The tendency in a competition is that you want your opponents to lose but I have understood for a long time that you cannot get rid of opposition anyway.
"You just have to focus on you and to be as strong as you can, that's it. I always fight against that. Maybe you want your strongest opponents not to be there but if they are replaced by somebody else then it will be difficult anyway."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Gay kissers led off plane for making a scene
posted at 11:18 am on September 27, 2011 by Howard Portnoy
Full disclosure: I am not familiar with the work of actress Leisha Hailey. In fact, I never heard of her before today.
That would probably still be the case if she and her better (other?) half hadn't made headlines for "kissing and telling" on a commercial airliner mid-flight.
Actually a word about those headlines is in order. The banner at The Hollywood Reporter, which is typical, reads "'L Word' Actress Leisha Hailey Tweets She Was Kicked Off Southwest Airlines Flight After Kissing Girlfriend." That gives you the basic outlines of the story, but the ostensible chronology and cause and effect are wrong. The women were taken off the plane after it landed. And it was not because they had been kissing.
As best as I reconstruct (the details vary depending on the source), Hailey and her girlfriend, Camila Grey, were exchanging saliva during a flight from Baltimore to St. Louis. Nearby passengers complained that the women's expression of affection was "excessive," which in turn prompted a flight attendant to tell them their behavior was inappropriate. Hailey concluded she and Grey were the targets of discrimination.
Apparently, words between the actress and airline personnel grew heated. Once the plane landed Hailey and Grey were led off the plane—in Hailey's own words—"for getting upset about the issue."
Upon deplaning, Hailey went to work compiling a complete dossier of the incident on her Twitter page via a half dozen outraged tweets, beginning with:
I have been discriminated against by @SouthwestAir. Flt. attendant said that it was a 'family' airline and kissing was not ok.
An employee at Southwest followed, tweeting: "I'm so sorry! Can you please follow/DM [direct message] me more details so we can get to the bottom of this? Thanks!"
The airline later tweeted the following statement:
Initial reports indicate that we received several passenger complaints characterizing the behavior as excessive. Our crew, responsible for the comfort of all Customers on board, approached the passengers based solely on behavior and not gender. The conversation escalated to a level that was better resolved on the ground, as opposed to in flight. We regret any circumstance where a passenger does not have a positive experience on Southwest and we are ready to work directly with the passengers involved to offer our heartfelt apologies for falling short of their expectations.
Were the passengers who objected "homophobes" who overreacted to a simple peck between two women? It's possible. It's equally possible that Hailey and Grey were making a public display of their "equal rights" by vying in front of a planeload of hapless passengers for membership in the Mile High Club.
All I know is if what happened to these two women once the plane touched down—viz., getting to exit before all the other passengers— qualifies as being "kicked off," I urge the airlines to kick me off the next I fly. I promise not to accuse them of heterophobia if they do.

Twenty two University of St. Thomas students, faculty and staff, along with a few students from University of Houston, Rice University and Texas A&M University-Galveston, joined together on the 40th Anniversary of Roe vs. Wade for the "largest human rights demonstration in the world," March for Life, on Jan. 25 in Washington D.C.
In his third year attending March for Life, Celts for Life President Austin Cruz said he thought this year was the best one, and the coldest, so far.
"The vast majority of people from UST attending the march this year had never gone before," Cruz said. "It was great to share in their first experience. From the beginning of the trip to the end of it, you could see their enthusiasm for the pro-life movement increase more and more."
During March for Life, Daniel Cardinal DiNardo, archbishop of the Galveston-Houston, visited with the UST group and was the principal celebrant at the pro-life youth rally and Mass. University President Dr. Robert Ivany and his son, the Rev. Mark Ivany, also joined the group.
Cruz said it was inspiring and rewarding to the Celts for Life to not only have such an amazing and supportive advisor in Sister Damien Marie Savino, FSE, but also the fact that Dr. Ivany has been so supportive that he even came out with his son to march.
"Dr. Ivany led the way for the Celts in the march, and I know that was a tremendous boost in our morale," he said.
Sister Damien Marie, assistantprofessor and chair of Environmental Science and Studies, who was on her 12th march overall and the fourth with UST Celts for Life, said she was impressed by a statement the Cardinal made at the end of Mass.
"It was Jan. 25, the feast of the conversion of St. Paul," she said. "He commented that St. Paul was blinded by the light, and it was this that precipitated his conversion. But then he went on to say that in our day, the light – the light of truth, the light of the Gospel – is being dimmed, and we need to be the light. We need to shine forth the light of the truth, of the Gospel, of life, for others to see so that they might be changed by our witness. It was a powerful summons and very beautiful, especially as we were preparing to go out into the cold to march with the hundreds of thousands of people gathered."
Cruz was encouraged by march attendees and several students told him they were now considering running for an officer position with Celts for Life next year.
"As president of Celts for Life, hearing things like that makes all the hard work, the organizing and fundraising that we put into the trip, worth it," he said. "That's why we go on this trip each year, to join the hundreds of thousands of people witnessing for life at the Capitol – 650,000 was the count this year according to EWTN Global Catholic Network – and with the hope that those students we take bring that fire for defending the unborn back to campus."
Cruz, a junior theology and philosophy double major, was elated when a number of this year's March for Life attendees came to the first meeting of the semester for Celts for Life on Jan. 29 "ready to make a difference on campus."
UST also had a group of 20 students attend the March for Life on Jan. 19 in Austin, Texas.
For more information about Celts for Life and to get involved, contact Cruz at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Looking good so far! Don't forget to take some 0000 steel wool to the CC armor under cool running water to bring out the shine. The cool water keeps the polyester resin from warming up and "gooping" on the surface.
Thanks Cruzer- I plan to do exactly that. I still have a whole box of it from when I did my asok CC helmet.
I began the work on the CC armor:
I also did some work on the MOW Jetpack, cleaned it up and began assembly:
And of course I have my reference photo's on hand being held by my trusty companion (my F800GS )

good start.........just keep posting pics as you move along.
I've been working on the jet pack this week
It's getting there, but still plenty to do.
This baby arrived today:
the classic jet pack took me about 3 times as long to paint as the two arena packs I have done.
I still have a lot of touch-up and need to add details/weathering yet, but the basic colors look right to me. What do you think?
I was thinking since the Jango collar is all black anyway I will probably go back to using the resin one that came with the MOW kit and save this Dark Side metal one for my Boba build.
I would say they look close, I added an orange mist to the yellow sections and a purple mist to the blue sections before I sealed and weathered it.
I thought I listed that in this thread but I don't remember for sure. I would use the basic collar for this pack too, no use in messing up the nice metal one.
Ok, I got some work done this weekend:
First the Cruzer BKBT (love this helmet too). I polished out the CC, cut out key slots & visor, then painted. I then used the ear caps to mark where I need holes to be drilled, then cut them out with my rotary bit. The ear cap pieces are now drying then they can be assembled. I still need to get the pin striping, mesh for the keyslots, and determine what I want to use for padding. Then it will just need the weathering.
I am making my own girth belt following Cruzers WIP. I cut out the backing and bolo strands. I glued the first one down on the center line and let it sit over night while I worked on the helmet. The next day I filled in all the way to the bottom and let that sit over night. Yesterday I completed the rest up tot he top and let that sit overnight. Next step is to trim the extra off the strands, fold @ glue over the ends, punch holes, and stain. Feeling pretty good about how this came out- Thank you Cruzer for all your help!

You may also see that I did some touch-up paint work on the jet pack. That is about all I can do on it until I get my SEEKER harness and the correct decals from Lucksy31.
Lookin' good, Vult! I was looking for the girth WIP and stumbled across YOUR WIP! Awesome progress...
Are you planning to make the keyslots a little "nicer"?
Also, might be the flash though, the lighter blue looks to light for me. Do you have a pic without flash and outside in daylight?
Hello, Hasenscharte
Yes, I still plan to clean up the key slots with a file. I just wanted to get the majority of it cut out before I got carried away with the painting. As far as the color goes, the lighter blue is the exact same Ocean Blue that everyone has used. It must be the flash.

I moved the helmet forward to the point of adding the pin stripes and start the weathering.
I let all the glue for the girth belt dry over night, so last night I punched the holes, laced it up with a hiking boot lace, and began dying it.
I still have touch-up work to do yet, but I must admit that I am very happy with how it came out. Especially since this is the first time I ever worked with leather, lol.
I found some really cool leather dye in a spray can from a local cobbler. I got 2 shades for my girth belt to give it depth/ wear. I used the darker one to weather up my Cruzer holster rig.
Thanks Vod!
Good job buddy
I just noticed that I put the right ear cap on too high, lol. Why the heck did they do it like this:
Jango Fett Costume - The Dented Helmet Gallery
I also made my girth belt too wide. The WIP said 7" and it looked good until I put the seeker ammo pouches over the top and then it was really obvious. I went and pulled the CRL from 501st and it said Approximately 5" or 21-22 bolo strands. So last night I carefully cut off 4 strands and brought it close to 5 1/4" to match the CRL and it does look better with only 3-4 strands above and below the ammo pouches.
My LSFU vest seems really long when I put all this on so I'm going to have to (gasp!) cut it down some once I get my harness and tie this all together via the SEEKER method.
I did a little more clean-up and detail work on the Jetpack while I wait for the decals to get here.
My vest is long like that also. It helps it to stay in place under the girth belt. But I still need to cut some holes in it for the jet pack straps in the front. Right now I just roll the vest under a bit so that I can snap the cod to the jet pack harness.
So if I can get a helmet gasket for this I will have everything I need to get level 3 (RF Servo set-up is in the mail). Of course I still have some sewing to do on the flight suit. I sewed in the clips to secure the hoses inside the sleve last night. I need to do button holes for the knees. Any other suit alterations I miss? I have bleached and dyed this thing at least 10 times now and I don't think the fabric is the easiest to work with here. No matter how much care I take to mix the bleach in hot water before adding the suit (completely pre-soaked), the bleaching doesn't lightened it evenly or nearly enough. It leaves me with spots that I have to re-dye purple and denim again. I've done this 3x now so I would love to hear any other suggestions.

Tongue Tied Babies
Here's a great Scrabble word (too long for Words with Friends): Ankyloglossia. It is the term for being tongue tied.
During my years as a practicing pediatrician being "tongue tied" was thought to have little consequence. Being tongue tied refers to the problem which occurs when the anterior (tip) of the tongue is attached too closely to the lingual frenulum (the piece of tissue that attaches the underside of the tongue to the floor of the mouth). This tightness may impair movement and function of the tongue and occurs in about 4 -5 % of newborns.
While it is not life threatening to be sure, and is really not associated with any long term speech problems, new data is showing that being tongue tied may interfere with early breast feeding.
Several recent articles in different pediatric journals have now looked at Ankyloglossia and breast feeding success. One of the most difficult times for a new mother is when she is first attempting breast feeding. I can attest to that myself.
While I was a pediatrician, and could perform life saving procedures on newborn infants, I was ill prepared for breast feeding. Not only did I not have any clue as to what I was doing, I was also exhausted, anxious and only knew that nursing sometimes brought tears to my eyes as the baby latched on and who even knew if they were getting any milk? Many mother stop nursing in the first several weeks after their baby is born due to a combination of the above factors.
Now if you add in a tongue tied newborn, who may have an ineffective or awkward latch, there may be even more pain associated with nursing.
For some mothers the bottle seems easier and surely less painful, and they may abandon breast feeding in the first weeks. But in these two recent studies, infants who were noted to be tongue tied and were exhibiting feeding issues, who then had their frenulum clipped (frenectomy) in the early neonatal period, had more long term success in breast feeding. Both studies demonstrated an improvement in infant latch and diminishment in maternal pain, which led to overall feeding improvement for both baby and mother. With this came more successful and longer breast feeding.
Many young (and not so young) pediatricians have not been trained in how to perform this simple procedure. When being "tongue tied" is noted on a baby's initial exam a frenectomy may easily be done in the first few days of an infant's life. Because the frenulum has a poor blood supply and heals rapidly, the baby may be put to the breast soon after the procedure. There is typically no more blood loss than when a child loses their first tooth. I think it is less invasive than circumcision, but that is my opinion of one.
With recent studies to document improvement in nursing it may be time for me to re-visit this procedure.Surely is it like riding a bike, you never forget how to do it!
That's your daily dose for today. We'll chat again tomorrow.

"The Spider Walk" is one of the newest University of Richmond Football traditions, beginning during the Spiders' National Championship season of 2008, and has quickly become one of the most popular Gameday activities.
As the team arrived on Gamedays at old University of Richmond Stadium, Spider fans greeted the team's buses and formed a human tunnel as the players walked from the bus to the Stadium.
The tradition's galvanizing moment came in Chattanooga, Tenn. as Richmond's players, coaches and staff arrived at Finley Stadium on the night of the National Championship Game. Thousands of Spider Fans packed the stadium's tunnel, welcoming their team with a deafening roar. Richmond carried that momentum on to the field, beating Montana 24-7 and claiming the school's first-ever National Championship.
The Route - New For The VMI Game!
Fans are encouraged to line-up along the Spider Walk and cheer their Spiders on to victory. Be sure to look and listen for the UR Pep Band and Cheerleaders announcing the arrival of the team along the route with the playing of our Fight Song.
The team will unload their buses at the Boatwright Entrance of campus (located at the Corner of Boatwright Drive and Campus Drive by the University of Richmond sign) to begin the Spider Walk two hours and 30 minutes prior to kickoff.
The route takes the team from the Boatwright Entrance, across Boatwright Drive and into Parking Lot B3. The team then continues down Boatwright Drive into Parking Lot B5. Finally the team will cross Boatwright Drive one last time to enter Parking Lot B6 before entering the Robins Center and their locker room.

Discussion in 'Football, Baseball, and Hockey' started by OLD SKOOL HQ, Apr 1, 2008.
Bobby Seay is simply unhittable.
Who do Tigs have there to pitch in the 11th?
Bobby Seay, of course. Bobby can pitch all night.
Tigers pull this one out. Huge win after being down big throughout the game against the best pitcher in the league. Bullpen stinks and I can smell the stink all the way out here in Cali.
ESPN - Trade of Griffey to White Sox now requires MLB's approval - MLB Chicago gets a boost getting Griffey. He still has power at 38. Doesn't look as if Tigers are going to make any deals.
That was an awesome game last night. What a jam we got out of in the 12th(?). Bases loaded and 0 outs! That was one of the longest games I've ever sat through.
This is what many expected from this team - strong hitting with weak bullpen.
I went to bed after the 12th inning. :(
After winning that game, Tigers lose the next one. I thought this would've been something that they could lean on, but Verlander struggled and offense didn't do much at all. Now that so-called "big win" doesn't mean jack.
I could've sworn I heard the Tigs picked up 2 players from the Pirates ???
Tigers' call for more arms unanswered | Tigers.com: News
Pudge struck out in his first at bat as a Yankee. I have to admit, it's weird to see him wearing the NY uniform. MLB.com is quick.
Willis inconsistent in loss to Sarasota | Tigers.com: News
Tigers get a good start by Galarraga, then blow it late. And they get swept by the Rays. Leyland said there might be changes coming...
This loss was Leyland's. Seay was pitching great and got pulled for no reason...then Rodney blew the game as he's been prone to do lately. Stupid loss to go back under.500
I guess we expected more than this team is capable of. They are a .500 team and their bullpen stinks even with Farnsworth in there. They need to cut a couple of people lose, bring up a couple of youngsters and go after some pitching in the offseason. Looks like Jurrjens trade took Tigers out of playoff contention. If he's in there, likely there're 5-6 more wins on the table. Of course, you don't know this until you make that trade. Galarraga kind of made up for that, but still...
What kind of changes is he talking about? What is left to do? How did Sheffield and Thames do last night? Do we have pitching prospects to bring up? Not sure what changes he is thinking of?
Well, for one, get rid of Rodney. I was at Yankee Stadium yesterday (for the first time) and saw Pudge play well for New York. I looked up at the out-of-town scoreboard and saw that the Tigers were up 4-1 and turned to my buddy and said, "The Tigers will find a way to lose this game, you watch."
For what? A round of peanuts for the dugout? What are you going to get for him?
Release his sorry behind! He isn't worth the roster spot they spend on him. I've read this a few times regarding him and I agree whole-heartedly, what good is 95 mph if you can't get it over the plate. HE"S our closer!!?!??!??!! See you in 09!

Loving the wall hacks they added... Is that a joke or something? Was I the only one that noticed that..? This game had potential, but they just added too much unnecessary $#@!. Can't wait to hear all the $#@!ing about how everything is unbalanced.
And why can't they ever take the time to AT LEAST get some new weapon sounds?

Yep, excitement level just went up to 10! I've been waiting for Black Ops 2 ever since the day MW3 released. I said to myself after playing some 20 odd matches, "good god I can't wait for Black Ops 2 because this sucks." I like most of the stuff that they are doing. I like how it looks like they left most of the basic formula alone. One thing I am concerned about it the HUD that makes you see someone through smoke and walls. I'm sure it's a perk or a low killstreak but seems a bit too much. Hoping it is a killstreak. Other than that no concerns here. Bring it on Treyarch, the superior maker of COD games.
Edit: NM about the see thru stuff. I saw it in the IGN video. Scope looks hacked up.

I'm sure they'll be something to block being seen with that scope. It's like a uav once aimed though refreshes every couple seconds.
I think this is a better analysis

The trailer looked pretty good, I'll need to see some more to know for sure if I'm going to buy this game or not.
I definitely hope they don't dumb down this game for COD Elite like IW did with MW3. I mean, BO had like 6 different colors for your clan tag at prestige 14, and MW3 removes them all and gives Elite members/people in an elite clan a gold (yellow really) clan tag? Ridiculous..
Also if they bring back Common Groups they have to fix those, as they don't work for $#@! atm. I see atleast 1 person with a common group in every game I play. For example I'm in the group "Netherlands", MW3 says someone else is in that same group however their profile often shows they're French/German/American/Chinese aka the game just makes up these common groups probably to make you feel like you're playing with people with the same interests/descents as you when they clearly don't.
tl;dr $#@! common groups

Never heard of this common group feature.

I wasn't considering getting it, because my wife and I only played MW3 actively for about 3-4 months before putting it aside. However, we just picked the game back up again 2 weeks ago, and have been playing daily with friends, so Black Ops 2 is back on the table. We have only been doing the Call of Duty scene since World at War (Playing each game in succession afterward).
We really liked the trailer, though it seems there will be many...many ways to get annoyed by wtf kills or stun kills this time around :P.
In the end, we will probably end up doing the midnight release, just like we did for Mw3 -.-;
If you want to play with us on PS3, add us (Cardioes - Me)
We play casually with a very small group. We aren't the best nor the worst of players; we are not annoying on the mic (only really say "the enemy is over here" or "I'm going over here'); and we are all adults (all with about 8-9 years in the Army, with the exception of my wife).

Do you consider 3-4 months of a single game "actively" keeping your attention to be too short? lol.
MW3 kept my attention for about 2 weeks. Cod4 kept my attention for 2 years.
08-11-2012 #43
08-12-2012 #44
COD4: 2 Months(Mostly due to connection issues)
MW2: 6 Months
BlackOps: 1+ Year
MW3: 2 Weeks
I also didn't see the fun with Modern Warfare 3. I couldn't enjoy it no matter how many times I played it. Hopefully, Black Ops 2 will be just as fun as the last.

Anyone know if it will have a bot mode again? Loved that feature in the first Black Ops. All the rank structure, unlocks, killstreaks, customization, and gameplay as online multiplayer, all without the douchebags and idiots that come with actual online gameplay. I was in heaven.
I don't really need a water cooler/remote control as of right now.

Stupid! Hell no! My parents KNEW the russkies had their sights set on the the rural town I grew up in.ha! Lmao. Growing up in the 60's was something.
And in the 70's we were taught to throw our m16a1's down and lay on top of them during a nuclear blast so we could charge what had been just been blown up in our last few minutes.WOW!
Fryed I know what ur saying.we grew up in an interesting time didn't we?
When was the last time you walked up to a building with the yellow fall out shelter plackard stuck on the wall? I remember going into the basement of the bank to use the restroom and seeing those big green cans of food and water and other supplies for those that "suvived" the nuclear attack.
I missed the Viet Nam war by 2 years. I graduated high school in 1976. I had my mind set on a military career but a woman got in the way and I never enlisted. I only lately have wondered how my life might have turned out if I had followed that path instead of the one I did. But you can't go back and life is what it is.

One fine day, the need for all we have done will eventually come to pass. It is then what you may have to to really do won't be so easy for you to swallow?
However, hiding in a secret room won't be a good solution if a hoard of dedicated raiders is digging through everything they can in a panic. It will be this time that you will have to deal with these gangs or raiders forcefully.
Just hiding in a so called safe room will be pointless.

'"We talked about this for a day and a little bit, and it was a pretty hard decision just because I was close to … Sneddon," Girgensons, smiling and wearing a Sabres polo shirt, said Friday inside the First Niagara Center. "This is the toughest decision I've ever made in my life."'
Archives for July 2012
Girgensons says no to Vermont, yes to Sabres
Update: Girgensons picks Sabres over Catamounts
'"We have stated often that if we are going to lose Zemgus, we hope it's to the NHL team that selects him in the draft. Buffalo feels confident that Zemgus can play for them this year as well as with the Rochester Americans of the AHL," Sneddon said. "We support Zemgus and wish him the best of luck as he begins his professional career with Buffalo.'
Sabres sign one of their first-round draft picks
'Girgensons, a native of Riga, Latvia, is the highest Latvian ever selected in the draft, and spent the last two seasons in the United States Hockey League.'
Sabres agree to terms with Girgensons
'Girgensons, who was selected with the 14th pick in the first round, spent the last two seasons with the Dubuque Fighting Saints of the United States Hockey League, recording 45 goals, 59 assists and 115 penalty minutes through 100 games.'
Girgensons, Sabres agree to terms
'Buffalo Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier today announced that the team has agreed to terms with forward Zemgus Girgensons on a three-year, entry-level contract.'
Sabres' Regier, Ruff say Roy ready
'"It was an elective [surgery], a choice," Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier said Thursday night during the team's development camp scrimmage in First Niagara Center. "He could have played. He did play with it. It was a decision made by that organization. I spoke to Joe before when we went through all the medical records prior to when we made the trade. [Roy] was rehabbing, he played with the shoulder last year and he would have played going forward."'
Regier wishes Dom the best – out west
'"One thing I am sure of: [Hasek] has no doubt in his mind that he can play," Regier told reporters Thursday night during a break in the team's development camp scrimmage. "I think it probably gives him a little bit of lift seeing somebody like [Martin] Brodeur play at 40 in the Stanley Cup final. I know better than to question Dom's desire and his ability. Unfortunately, it's not something that was going to fit here."'
Team to make a special 'Connection'
'Team President Ted Black said the statue is just a step. The Sabres are creating their own "Alumni Plaza" with the sculpture as its centerpiece. The plaza will honor every Sabre. All 401 players will be put on plaques, which will go in brick columns that support a walkway above the plaza. Sabres fans can also purchase for $100 and reserve custom plaques to be placed among those of the players.'
Regier says Sabres dealt healthy Roy
'"We're very confident in the decision by our medical staff," Regier said Thursday inside the First Niagara Center during the second intermission of a prospect scrimmage. "He played with it last year. He could've played with it next year. It was a decision by the Dallas Stars. It was as simple as that. We were very comfortable with his situation and remain so."'
Buffalo Sabres commission statue of famous line
'Sabres President Ted Black announced the project Thursday. He says the statue is inspired by a photo taken during a 1975 game and is being sculpted by Texas artist Jerry McKenna. It'll be unveiled Oct. 12 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the French Connection's first playing together in 1972.'
Sabres pass on potential Hasek comeback
'Hasek last suited up for the Detroit Red Wings in 2008, helping the club win their fourth Stanley Cup in an 12-year span thanks to a 27-10-3 mark with a 2.14 goals-against average and five shutouts.'
Wise, Girgensons lead Blue to 7-3 win over Gold
'"I think we've got maybe as heavy a load of talent as we've had," the head coach summarized. "Some real good skill, some good size. We've got some good skill on the back end and up front I think we saw some of that talent there in the scrimmage."'
Regier comments on stagnant market, Roy surgery
'"I think the big names are still out there and as far as free agents Shane Doan is out there, but there really aren't many left. I think there will be a lot of competition for a few names," Regier said. "I think it will move at some point, but no one seems to be in a hurry right now."'
Hasek Meets with Sabres about Return to NHL
'"We are in discussions with a number of teams and are pursuing a multi-year contract for him. He is ready and feels he can continue playing for a few years at an extremely high NHL level."'
Wise scores three as Blue tops Gold in scrimmage
'"I didn't really know what to expect coming in. I just tried to play my game," Wise said following the game. "I'm kind of like a physical guy, I'm good around the net and I get pucks out. So I was just trying to do that and I was lucky enough to get a few goals so it was a good game for me."'

Discussion in 'March 2009' started by Dlev59, Mar 2, 2009.
You're right Dre. I apologize.
Some of us are still hoping that AI can help the team.
Cheers to that. I just hope RoundBall One picked him up in ATL. Did we ever find out if he was indeed hosting at the club or was Eli Zaret lying to us?
Yeah, I can't stand Chauncey. It was painful to have to watch him play a game again frankly. Irregardless of his obvious talent, everytime he walked the ball up the court I fell some kind of PTSD happening. Also I was afraid they might try to reverse the trade while he was in town and the next game he'd be back in a Pistons uni!(I know it's past the trade deadline, but I got paranoid anyway.) Likes and dislikes on that kind of personal projection level are very irrational and arbitrary. There are a few basketball reasons I don't like him, but they aren't big enough to warrant my aversion. I just don't like the guy. Way too cool for school, but not cool cool, uncool cool instead.
Was Eli tied into that story?
They were co-hosting the event.
This is where a smart%%%%% would mention that OLD SKOOL claims Sheed would get thrown out more if the refs weren't so lenient with him, but that wouldn't be me 'cuz I'm a dumb%%%%%.
Sorry Roscoe, I didn't realize that would trigger the language filters. My fault.
On a different note... You guys and your playa hatin'. I really don't understand it. I can't think of a single player in the NBA that I feel that way toward, much less a Piston/ former Piston. Billups is so laid back and cool. You act like he's Barry Bonds or something.
I think he mentioned that AI was back in the locker room getting treatments and that he wouldn't be coming out the other night. Maybe that's just what they told him and he didn't know any better. Or maybe AI was back in there. Doesn't really matter, but I was just curious after all the hype.
S'okay. Ass is supposed to be ok to post. I will check the filter.
Ah, you tried to beat the filter with a misspelling. lol Ass is ok A$$ is ok @ss is ok too.
I just don't like the dude. Same with Kimmie I suppose. You don't see us posting on Nuggets boards talking junk, or every time he has a bad game posting about it here. Something about Den came up in the podshow tonight, and I had no idea what the answer was. The Nuggets are slightly less important than the Hawks to me, which is to say they are totally irrelevant except BDL lives in their town and I like him.
I think he will help the team. I have a gut feeling that AI is going to suck it up and make the bench his personal statement. He really has an opportunity to help the team.
In reality, he is going to be much more than a bench player because he's still going to get 25+ minutes per game. So, he really can have as big of an impact as before if he plays well because he won't have to defer half as often.
2nd that. I have a friend/co-worker who is a Mod at "Nuggets Talk". He knows I'm a Pistons/NBA guy and he's asked me to join him over there for a long time now. I have absolutely NO desire to do so. I admit that I do have a heightened awareness (that's not saying much) of the Thuggets since the AI/Chauncey trade but I could care less about those idiots (Chauncey excluded). Denver is a 2nd tier team and will be as long as Melo is in the equation. For instance, this year - they'll finish 5th in the West and lose in the 1st round of the playoffs. Plus, Colorado Ave's fans have ruined all chances of me getting behind any of the local teams here. They're by far, the most uninformed jackasses to ever lend support to a pro franchise. ...and John Elway is their large-toothed leader.
I thought they'd changed the name to Airball One...
I'll check it for you. Ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass. ....ass.
Good thing it's okay or we wouldn't be able to post Shaq's rap lyrics.
Plus - how long was he playing hurt with this back injury. That has to make a difference when he comes back.
Separate names with a comma.

Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, hardly an innocent bystander on this afternoon, stands over some of the human wreckage at Wells Fargo Center on Sunday.
Bruce Bennett, Getty Images
Old-time hockey, some were calling it. Perhaps, if old-time hockey involved chasing opponents around the rink, trying to decapitate them. Or crosschecking a guy in the throat after he'd levelled someone else with a terrific, clean bodycheck. Or meant pulling hair. You know, just the regular stuff.
When the smoke cleared, and there was plenty of it, the Pittsburgh Penguins had almost fully imploded Sunday afternoon in Philadelphia, losing a gong show 8-4 after two nights earlier having lost 8-5 on home ice. The Flyers now hold a commanding 3-0 lead with two days off until Wednesday's Game 4.
• In Los Angeles, Jonathan Quick's shutout goaltending was one goal better than that offered by Vancouver's Cory Schneider, the Kings' 1-0 win over the Canucks putting L.A. up 3-0 and moving last spring's Stanley Cup-finalist on the brink of elimination.
• In Detroit, former Canadien Sergei Kostitsyn scored what would be the winner and the Predators hung on for dear life to defeat the Red Wings 3-2 and take a 2-1 lead in their series.
• In Sunrise, Fla., the Panthers clawed to a 4-2 win over New Jersey, tying at 1-1 the series between Florida and the Devils.
Meanwhile, New York Rangers' Carl Hagelin was suspended three games by the NHL for his Saturday elbow to the head of Ottawa's Daniel Alfredsson, while the Senators' Matt Carkner was banned for one game for his punching-bag routine on New York's Brian Boyle in the same game.

The city's downtown skyline, the third highest in North America, is like an architectural textbook of the 20th century, while elsewhere there are unusual sights such as the decommissioned craft of the Houston Space Center, or original Mark Rothko paintings in the fortress-like Rothko Chapel. High-end shopping in Uptown's Galleria mall and the restaurant and bar scene of bohemian, gay-friendly Montrose are also draws.

I had a little difficulty in teaching the following vocabulary to a group of intermediate level students. All Native Spanish speakers. I used Pictures to explain & elicit the meaning of the first 4, how ever I did have some difficulties in teaching the word inconsistent.
I am interested to see how other more experienced teachers would have tackled this. I am a new inexperienced teacher.
Archer, to pout, to throw a tantrum, to be the apple of someone's eye, inconsistent.
Thanks in advance.

Limbaugh falsely claimed religious conservatives are united behind Miers
Research ››› ››› JULIE MILLICAN
On the October 13 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh falsely claimed that "religious conservatives are full-force behind Harriet Miers." Limbaugh was referring to an online MSNBC column by Newsweek's Howard Fineman titled "The Conservative Crackup," in which Fineman argued that evangelical conservatives feel slighted by Miers's Supreme Court nomination and that President Bush sought to satisfy their desire for a religious conservative nominee "by stealth -- by nominating someone with absolutely no paper trail." Limbaugh responded, "The religious conservatives are not angry about anything being stealth. ... They're not mad at Bush."
In fact, as the Think Progress website has documented, there has been a clear divide within conservative religious organizations and leaders regarding Miers's nomination. For instance, the group Concerned Women for America has stated that it "cannot endorse [Miers's] nomination." Gary Bauer, president of the religious activist organization American Values, has stated his concern about the nomination and has vowed to withhold support until he "know[s] with some certainty that she is a vote for our values." Operation Rescue, an organization committed to outlawing abortion, also has voiced its opposition. On its website, Operation Rescue states its position on the Miers nomination: "Operation Rescue will not support Miers' nomination unless more information is released assuring conservatives that she will be a strong constitutional constructionist to the [sic] in the mold of [justices Clarence] Thomas and [Antonin] Scalia."
Other religious conservative critics have been even more specific about their skepticism of Miers's nomination, and their reasons run contrary to Limbaugh's claims that "the religious conservatives are not angry about anything being stealth." On the October 4 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio program, Bill Bennett's Morning in America, religious conservative Bill Bennett declared his "disappointment" with the nomination "precisely ... because it rewards stealth" and that he's "tired of rewarding stealth." On the October 13 edition of Fox News' Hannity & Colmes, Bennett reiterated his concern about nominating a candidate without a paper trail, which he said would "set a very bad precedent."
Public Advocate of the United States, another conservative religious organization, stated that it rejects Miers's nomination because she is what the group considers a "stealth candidate":
The President's nomination of Miers is a betrayal of the conservative, pro-family voters whose support put Bush in the White House in both the 2000 and 2004 elections and who were promised Supreme Court appointments in the mold of Thomas and Scalia. Instead we were given "stealth nominees," who have never ruled on controversial issues, more in the mold of the disastrous choice of David Souter by this President's father.
Further, Liberty Counsel, which says its purpose is to advance causes related to "religious freedom, the sanctity of human life and the traditional family," stated in an October 11 press release that "it does not support President George W. Bush's nomination of Harriet Miers for the United States Supreme Court" and "calls on President Bush to withdraw the nomination."
From the October 13 broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show:
LIMBAUGH: All right, folks, the left is out there salivating over what is happening in the conservative world over the Harriet Miers nomination. Two things here: Robin Toner piece in The New York Times today and a Howard Fineman column entitled "The Conservative Crackup." Subhead is "How The Neocons Have Developed A Political Exit Strategy." And I just know that Howard was sitting there drooling over his keyboard as he was typing this piece. And remember, Fineman had a piece recently that was two years late in discovering the influence that the extremist left-wing bloggers have on the mainstream Democratic party. This is a piece that is steeped in hope. And it's -- I think it grossly -- well, it's full of just wrong analysis. It's incorrect analysis.
What's wrong with this whole thing? What's wrong with this whole analysis of religious conservatives? Well, the primary thing is that they're not frosted! The religious conservatives are full-force behind Harriet Miers. The religious conservatives are not angry about anything being stealth. I've talking [sic] to religious conservatives on this -- on this program, who have said if they're angry at anybody, it's people like me. They're angry at what they think of the elitists inside the beltway. Conservative intellectuals. They're not mad at Bush.
The idea -- Howard, how can you miss this? How in the world can you miss it? He must think that everybody in the Republican party is a Religious Right conservative whacko, and that all those people who oppose Miers are no different than the Religious Right anywhere else.

Higher education institutions have the unique role of shaping how students see the world and define their role within it. Through our programs, students are able to think critically about their responsibility to their community and develop skills to positively impact that community in a professional or personal capacity.
We design programs that combine organized service activities with skill-based learning opportunities focused on thoughtful reflection. The community focus of our programs encourages students to move past temporary solutions toward a deeper understanding of systemic challenges facing our world. Colgate's commitment to community engagement serves as the foundation for our work.
This year in particular, we were honored to welcome Jonah Shacknai to campus in March to celebrate the dedication of the Max Shacknai COVE following his gift endowing the center, further ensuring that service experiences are integrated into a Colgate education.
This newsletter highlights some of the many ways Colgate students worked in partnership with community toward a positive outcome during the past academic year. Collectively, we continue to do as much as we can to leave the world in a better place than we found it. I'm proud of the steps we were able to take this year. I hope you will join us in celebrating the successes of our year as well!
With warm regards,
Krista Saleet
Max A. Shacknai Center for Outreach, Volunteerism and Education
There's a new sign on the door at Colgate's Center for Outreach, Volunteerism, and Education (COVE). On March 22, campus community members gathered to reassert the center's mission as it became the Max Shacknai COVE, named in memory of Max Shacknai, son of Jonah Shacknai '78. For all of the words of thanks and commendation spoken during the dedication, the Max Shacknai COVE has a "show me, don't tell me" legacy that was reaffirmed by Jonah Shacknai himself. Speaking to students, faculty, and staff, he reminded them that, "as we look around our world — as we look around our community — no matter what our luck, we have the opportunity to take stock, realize that we have great fortune, and with that great fortune, great responsibility."
The Max Shacknai COVE advises 38 student-led, community-based volunteer teams. These teams cover a wide range of issues and help students build an abundance of skills. Approximately 650 students representing about 25 percent of the Colgate population participate regularly in a volunteer team. In Fiscal Year '13, volunteer teams performed more than 26,500 hours of direct service in the local community.
The COVE continues to offer educationally meaningful service trips over winter and spring break. Alternative break trips are not discrete one-week experiences. In addition to committing to a work-intensive week, students are responsible for attending pre-departure meetings that introduce the participants to the community and organization with which they will be working and the critical issues with which they will be dealing.
In Fiscal Year '13, COVE expanded on its mission to cultivate a community of students who will be leaders in social responsibility and community engagement by launching a Social Innovation Initiative, designed to support students in the pursuit of innovative, transformative, and sustainable solutions to social problems.
The COVE has become an institution on campus by enshrining each part of its name in a series of signature programs. During Fiscal Year 13, we reached out to first-year students, strengthened our ties to the interfaith community, and conducted multiple days of service. We hosted high school seniors for seminars with faculty, and we invited the campus community to a series of awareness-raising brown bag lunches — and much more.
The Max Shacknai COVE exists through the efforts of individuals. During the course of Fiscal Year '13, our work has drawn attention — and provided us with the opportunity to recognize the work of others.
In a single day, two Colgate students observed thousands of Muslims in mid-day prayers, Jews celebrating the start of Shabbat, and Franciscan monks leading processions through the streets of Jerusalem. This happens each Friday in the streets of Old City in Jerusalem, where Christina Crowley '14 and Rebecca Fine '14 lived this summer to complete a project designed to promote peace in a place long embroiled in conflict.
