Bill Sammon: It Wasn't A Lie; It Was Pre-Truth!
Blog ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
This morning, Media Matters revealed that Fox News editor chief Bill Sammon admitted to lying on-air about Barack Obama embracing "socialism" before the 2008 election. The Daily Beast's Howard Kurtz contacted Sammon for his response:
In an interview, Sammon says his reference to "mischevious speculation" was "my probably inartful way of saying, 'Can you believe how far this thing has come?'" The socialism question indeed "struck me as a far-fetched idea" in 2008. "I considered it kind of a remarkable notion that we would even be having the conversation." He doesn't regret repeatedly raising it on the air because, Sammon says, "it was a main point of discussion on all the channels, in all the media" -- and by 2009 he was "astonished by how the needle had moved."
Greg Sargent of the Washington Post picked apart Sammon's response, calling it "remarkable":
Now, Sammon is also claiming here that Obama's behavior in office ultimately persuaded him that the original diagnosis of Obama as a socialist turned out to be correct after all. That in itself, of course, is also a ridiculous falsehood. But that aside, the bottom line here is that he doesn't regret having spread an idea he personally found far-fetched, because so doing helped ensure that the far-fetched idea ultimately gained widespread acceptance. That's a peculiar attitude for a "news" executive, isn't it?
Adam Serwer of the American Prospect takes the next step, writing: "I'd say Sammon is retroactively justifying having lied on the basis that enough people now believe Obama is a socialist that he can convince himself of the charge's original veracity."
They're right. Sammon is essentially saying that he didn't believe it when he said it, but now people just like him say it all the time, so it was accurate before it was true. It's a pre-truth!
We've seen a similar phenomenon with Sarah Palin and the infamous "death panels." In 2009, Palin claimed that the Advanced Care Planning Consultation provision of the House health care bill constituted a "death panel." After that was debunked, right-wingers switched gears and claimed that the Medicare Independent Payment Advisory Board provision in the Senate health care bill amounted to a "death panel," which meant Palin was right all along, even though it was a different provision of a different bill (and still false).
In short, there's no claim too ridiculous that right-wingers can't retcon into some semblance of near-truth.

(a) Returnable containers shall be assessed only to the person in possession thereof on the lien date, provided such person is not under a legally enforceable duty to return the containers for reuse. For the purpose of this section, a person is not under a legally enforceable duty to return returnable containers for reuse merely because such person has the right to return such containers at his election for a sum of money equal to the deposit or similar charge paid by him upon his acquisition of the containers.
(b) If a deposit or similar charge is paid by the buyer of the contents with respect to returnable containers assessable in the manner provided by this section, the cash value of such returnable containers after initial use shall be the cost of such containers, less depreciation, but shall not be less than the deposit or similar charge.
(c) As used in this section the term "returnable containers" means containers used to package soft drink beverages and of a kind customarily returned by the buyer of the contents for reuse.
History.—Added by Stats. 1973, Ch. 1044, p. 2069, in effect January 1, 1974, operative on March 1, 1974. Sec. 2 of the act provides no state payment to local government because of the act.
Reusable containers.—Only returnable containers used to package soft drink beverages are exempt under this section. Thus, the section does not apply to reusable containers in which a soft drink manufacturer supplied carbon dioxide gas and component syrup to its wholesale customers because the former was not a liquid and the latter was not palatable in its packaged state and was not intended to be imbibed as a refreshment.

A top UN official asked Taliban leaders to participate in the August presidential election and abandon fighting. He believes if the Taliban becomes active in the political process it will create the basis for peace in the war torn nation. "Call it reconciliation, or the peace process, whatever you want, but I believe that the opposition should know that those who want to take part in the election and respect the constitution should have an option to do this," said Kai Eide, head of the UN mission in Afghanistan. There is no sign of any interest among Taliban leaders for participation in any election process. Of course, if the Taliban entered the election and its candidate won the presidential election, does anyone believe a member of the Taliban would be allowed to assume the presidential office? After all, what happened to Hamas when it entered the political process in Palestine?
In the meantime, President Karzai will undoubtedly win the election which means four more years of his incompetent leadership in a nation that desperately needs an honest government that can win the allegiance of the people. There is no indication that Karzai has any goal other than maintaining power–for himself and his cronies.

Information For...
Calculating Financial Need
The Financial Aid Office will prepare a financial aid package based on student's financial need. At SPC all students are awarded as full-time students (enrolled in 12 semester credit hours). If a student enrolls in fewer than 12 semester credit hours, the student's PELL grant will be less than amount shown on the student's award letter.
The Financial Aid Office determines student's financial need by calculating the difference between the EFC# (Expected Family Contribution) and the cost of attending SPC. This is the amount that students and/or their families are expected to contribute to their cost of attending college.
Students EFC# is calculated by the federal government based on the FAFSA. The nine month cost of attendance includes tuition, fees, books, supplies, and an average cost for living expenses to include housing, meals, and transportation.
Any additional resources such as scholarships, exemptions, waivers, etc. will be considered in determining students financial need.

I'm new to this world of building and collecting props and such. I've been lurking in TDH for a month or so, doing research for a restricted budget Boba build. I really want to do Boba for Halloween this year.. We also have a little girl that turns one in a few days so Boba has to be done with limited funds allocated to costuming. This isn't meant to be the most accurate Boba and it will be retired to a mannequin after October 31st, so I'm not overly concerned with accuracy as long as it looks done well.
TDH has been a great resource in my research and building so far and I wasnted to share this project with you guys and gals. I may not be a member that is around much so I wanted to post a thread to thank all of you for your help on this project and for building such a helpful and friendly place for everyone that loves The Fett. I'm just getting started and I plan to be done in a couple of weeks. I'll update this thread with my progress until I'm finished.
Thanks again.
So far I have the helmet and gauntlets nearly finished.
Hobby Lobby had a sale on matt board. One matt board cost me $4.00 and I made it into the helmet using the WOF templates.
For the gauntlets I bought three large for sale signs. $6.00.
So, this is where I am now. I'll be picking up my sintra at FedEx kinkos today and start heat gunning some armor.

Interest-Rate Floors Still A Fixture for Floating-Rate Loans
Interest-rate floors remain a fixture in the leveraged-loan market, four years after they started being implemented to compensate loan investors as lending rates fell to historic lows. Such floors have effectively turned the leveraged loan market into a fixed-rate market that can still protect investors if interest rates move higher.
Leveraged loan interest rates are priced in terms of a spread over the London interbank offer rate, or LIBOR. LIBOR floors, which guarantee investors a minimum base level off of which those spreads are set, came into use in 2008 and have become a fixture in the market during the current ultra-low rate environment.
Even with market conditions increasingly favoring borrowers over investors, LIBOR floors have still been included in 100% of first-lien institutional loans brought to market from Oct. 1-26, in line with a recent range of 94-100%, according to Standard & Poor's Leveraged Commentary & Data. October's average LIBOR floor rate of 1.25% is little changed from earlier in the year, and it compares to a three-month LIBOR rate of 0.31% as of Oct. 26.
In the year to date, 96% of first-lien institutional loans have a floor, the same percentage as last year, S&P LCD says. At this point the overall share of loans in the S&P/LSTA Index that contain a floor stands at 62.3%, up from 49% at the end of 2011 and just 29% a year earlier. Here's S&P LCD's Steve Miller:
Floors remain sticky because they are an attractive way to for issuers to sweeten yields while preserving lower credit spreads if rates rise. For accounts, the trade-off is not ideal – all things being equal, wider spreads are superior to a spread/floor structure for obvious reasons – but with the Federal Reserve using every tool in the shed to suppress rates, most managers and investors are viewing loans as essentially fixed-rate instruments. And, in fact, the forward curve for three-month LIBOR doesn't rise above the 1.3% average floor of S&P/LSTA Index loans with floors until July 2016. Coincidentally or not, that is past the date when, based on historical repayment rates, most loans that are outstanding today will be repaid.

Special Recovery Instructions
(Boulder County Colo.) Along with the losses associated with property damage to a flooded house or business, much of the soaked contents are often damaged beyond repair and must be discarded. However, like the building envelope itself, important items can be cleaned and preserved. (As expected, clean water and gray water flood events will be easier to salvage things from than black water (sewage) flooding).
Some in the disaster restoration business go by the mantra "anything can be cleaned", but while this may be true, only certain irreplaceable items may be worth the heroic measures needed to clean and sanitize them. Upholstered furniture, carpets, novels—forget it, but a box of grandma's old baby clothes may easily be salvaged by running them through the wash a time or two. And things stored in boxes might prove easier to clean than expected since they will be soaked but not necessarily infiltrated with mud and debris.
Often the most important things flood victims want or need to save are the toughest to salvage such as paper documents, old photos, and other media. Luckily there's a lot of information available about how to do this and in our area, regional facilities and volunteer resources even popped up to offer help.
The point is to give the property owner the chance to sift through items for valuables before tossing it all into the debris pile at the curb. Most people assume anything soaked is a total loss but if you present the possibility of salvaging photos, videos, documents, and precious items to your client, you may be a real hero to them in this time of crisis when they have already lost so much.
First Steps On Site
The first step is to keep the affected items cool and wet before they can be sorted and cleaned. Despite the commonsense notion of laying everything out in the sun to dry, flooded/contaminated items shouldn't be dried and then wet again by cleaning. Direct sunlight can kill mold with its UV rays, but some materials need to be dried slowly to prevent damage. Wood will split, papers will shrivel, and photos and art will fade if exposed to strong sunlight when wet.
The second step is for the property owner go through their stuff and separate items to be salvaged as soon as possible as mold can set in within 48 hours.
The third step is to stabilize the items until they can be properly cleaned and dried. If possible, mud and other contaminants should be rinsed off with clean water. If the water is off or time is short, you may have to skip this step.
Sealing the items wet in plastic bags will keep them from drying out before they can be cleaned but does not slow the damaging affects of moisture. The best way to stabilize wet items is to freeze them. This halts the propagation of mold and other biological contaminants. Some people in our area bought chest freezers and filled them up with freezer bags of their soaked paperwork and photographs so they can work on salvaging them months later when they have the time. Refrigeration doesn't help for long term storage as mold can grow in temperatures near freezing.
Note-- Some types of media shouldn't be frozen (see the recommendations for specific media in the links that follow).
Paper Documents and Photographs
A soak and thorough rinse in tap water is the basic cleaning step for flooded papers and photos. Besides rescuing sentimental papers like your marriage certificate or college diploma, you probably have tax and legal documents that you must save and hold on to. Standard office paper falls apart easily when wet but can be dried and saved if you are very careful. Peeling apart wet pages that are stuck together may be easier with the stack of paper partially dry but you may have to experiment with this process. Individual sheets can be dried laid flat on screening or hanging vertically from clotheslines set up indoors (if the paper is dry enough to hang by clothespins without tearing the paper). Be sure to use plastic clothespins—wooden ones can hold moisture and mold spores.
Photographs printed from negatives usually fare better in these processes since they were originally made in a wet process that included a water wash. Common, resin-coated paper prints (from commercial film processors) are more durable when wet and can be dried lying flat or hung up with one or two clothespins. Fiber-based photo paper (older black and white images and fine art prints) needs to handled more delicately when wet and will curl when it dries. Because of this, drying between two screens or hanging with clothespins on the bottom corners may be necessary to make the prints dry flat. Of course photographs can be reprinted if you have the negatives in good condition.
Keep or Copy?
Papers and photos that have been contaminated by gray or black water flooding may contain e-coli and other infectious agents that you don't want to store in your file cabinets and shoe boxes, so you have to decide if you want to try to preserve the originals or just clean them well enough to be duplicated and then discarded. A quick rinse should be sufficient for putting papers and photos on a photocopier or scanner, and this can be done before the items are fully dried which can save time.
For originals that you want to keep, I found no reference to cleaning and sanitizing paper and photos during my research so I would suggest trying the same bacteriostatic/fungistatic disinfectants that are used on building materials (see the Sanitizing and Drying Out blog in this series). Apply the product sparingly at first to make sure it doesn't damage the ink or photographic image before pouring it on everything you wish to preserve. The latest botanical anti-microbial formulas contain no chemical solvents and are less hazardous to the people handling them so they would be what I would try first. Keep in mind that this process is experimental and that documents and images that have undergone flood damage are likely to continue degrading over time.
As when handling any contaminated material, you should wear rubber gloves, a protective mask or respirator, and splash-protection goggles. Bacterial infections can start in your eyes or in the mucous membranes of your mouth and nose just as easily as through breaks in your skin so protect your face and not just your hands.
Fine Art
For paintings and other fine art, you will need to get them to a professional conservator as quickly as possible for the greatest chance of preservation. Call the conservator you wish to hire right away and follow their directions on what to do. For paintings, protecting the paint surface is the most important thing. When removing artwork from a flooded building, don't rub it or bump it against anything, and handle it with the painted surface facing up if possible. Similarly, if you need to rinse any debris off, gently flood it with clean water while it is lying horizontally. However, if the paint layer is lifted up (tented) or loose, rinsing it or putting it near a fan may cause much more damage. Dry the painting lying face-up away from direct sunlight and make sure it is propped up so air can circulate around the back of the canvas. Do not stack paintings, and don't set anything on the paint surface when wet. If any paint has flaked off, save the paint fragments in a plastic bag to give to the conservator. If the painting is fully dry before it goes to the conservator, store and transport it face-up in a box or tray to catch any loose paint chips and cover it with thin plastic sheeting. If areas of the painting appear washed out and whitish, it doesn't mean it is a total loss. Water will make the outer surface of some paints and varnishes break down and emulsify, but this is easy to repair.
The three conservators I interviewed had no suggestions for a cleaning or sanitizing step so rinsing the painting if it is already soaked (and the paint surface is physically sound) is the limit of what should be done before it goes to the professional. Once at a conservation lab, your art and artifacts may be professionally freeze dried or vacuum dried and otherwise treated with methods beyond the scope of the layman so no self-restoration tips are available.
Prints, photos, and other framed artwork in should be removed from their frames to hasten drying. Paper media and the pages of valuable books or photo albums may be interleaved with sheets of wax paper or blotter paper to keep the pages from sticking together while drying.
Local Memory Rescue Centers
After the Colorado floods, a non-profit group known as the Memory Preservation Coalition set up four regional document and media rescue centers to give people a place to clean and process their damaged items free of charge for five weeks. These locations were manned by volunteers during the height of the clean up who helped affected residents rinse, dry and digitally scan all of the photos and papers as they needed to rescue. In addition, other forms of media such as tapes and films could be rinsed and dried at the sites. The rescue centers were set up in coalition member stores that offer digital media transfer services so if flood victims wanted to have their damaged media copied to new digital media, they could purchase those services at the same place.
The coalition also offers a service to help return photos found after a natural disaster with their owners who may have lost them in a flood, tornado, or hurricane. This effort started after Superstorm Sandy last year when volunteers picked up over 30,000 photos and posted them on a site to help reconnect them to families who assumed the photos were lost forever. http://memorypreservationcoalition.org/


text: It has bothered me for years that child actors (boys and girls together) don't get the recognition they deserve at the Oscars. The top performances get nominated for a supporting actor category, to compete against adults. Only a few have actually won the award (Tatum O'Neill and Anna Pacquin). Others had no chance at all. Of course the academy will have to define an age limit to be considered a child actor- should it be below 18/17/16, etc. by a certain date, or before the movie started filming or before it was released- all those will have to be defined. I don't buy that there are not enough child actor roles, if boys and girls are placed in one pool. In a few categories I have seen just 3 nominations (I think it may be make up or visual effects). It should be very easy to identify 3 child actors in a whole year that would be deserving of a nomination. Is there a reason the academy does not have this category? Neither does the Golden Globe or any other major organizations. I would also like to see it at the Golden Globes. If they can split into drama and comedy for movies, I don't see why cannot add a child actor category.

For clarification, the hive was originally installed almost a month ago, so if there was a virgin queen in there, shouldn't I have found brood by now?
I have taken two frames of brood from another colony and put them in now. Should I just wait, or should I try to order another queen after they've had the brood in there for a couple of days?
I did install the previous queens by removing the cork from the candy end of the queen cage and poking a small hole through the candy, then I wedged the cage sreeen side down with the candy end slightly down between two center frames in the hive body. That's correct, isn't it?

Went to my local outdoor range Sat, 3-27. Started with my new Rem 770 30.06. New scope, 10X40. Too much scope. 16" FOV @ 100 yds, again too much. I got it zero'd, and could not get a good group. Not a bad group, but I wanted to put multiple rounds through the same hole. More practice needed. I'll get it.
150 rds through my S&W M&P 15 MOE, 10 misses in a full body target, 5 mags, approx. 40 seconds per mag. I'm not unhappy with that.
Pistol @ 7 yds, XD 40 6" groups in 20 seconds, 12 rds. G19 13 rds in 25 sec, 6" groups. My new 709 after polishing the slide and not zeroing the sights, off the paper. Ugly. Gonna get a new boresight Monday. Shot a buddies 44 magnum hair trigger, 3" groups at 7 yds. Nice.
Geez I love shooting.

Hockey • The NHL and the players' association seemingly had a good day on Friday as they returned to the negotiating table.
It just wasn't good enough to bring the sides all that much closer to the end of the lockout that threatens the start of the hockey regular season.
The league and the union got back to bargaining for the first time since players were locked out on Sept. 16, and the sides discussed secondary issues without broaching the big economic divide that really is the essence of the dispute.
"It was a good day," NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said Friday night after the second negotiating session of the day. "I wish we had spent today on what we consider to be the more meaningful issues, but it is what it is."
The sides were together for a total of about five hours including a private meeting between Commissioner Gary Bettman and union head Donald Fehr.
A handful of players also took part in the talks.
The groups agreed on issues related to player safety and drug testing, areas that weren't expected to be contentious. They will get back together on Saturday morning, and plan to meet on Sunday, too, but the topics of discussion still don't seem to include the big dollar issues.
"I don't know if I would say significant, but we did seem to make some progress on a number of things. Hopefully we will continue," NHL Players' Association special counsel Steve Fehr said. "There is no plan right now to discuss core economic issues."
And that is where the frustration lies. The NHL is waiting for the players' association to make a counterproposal to one the league made to the union in the previous bargaining session more than two weeks ago.
"We can't make them talk about what they don't want to talk about," Daly said. "In fairness, we do have to cover these issues if we're going to reach an agreement. What we're doing today is important, it's just not the most important things we can be doing.
"We've made at least two consecutive moves in significant dollars in their direction, and they haven't moved a single dollar in our direction since Aug. 4."
Graham Zusi's two goals lift Sporting KC over Fire
Soccer • Graham Zusi scored two goals, and Sporting Kansas City clinched a playoff spot with a 2-0 win over Chicago.
Jimmy Nielsen had to make one save to record his league-leading 14th shutout for Sporting (17-7-7), which extended its unbeaten streak to nine matches and widened its Eastern Conference lead to five points over the Fire. Sporting had not won against Chicago at home since a 3-2 victory on Aug. 22, 2007.
Chicago (16-8-7) had a four-match winning streak snapped and lost for just the second time in nine games.
Zusi put Sporting up 1-0 in the 11th minute, running onto Kei Kamara's cross and one-timing the ball past Sean Johnson. He scored unassisted in the sixth minute of second-half stoppage time, working his way free and slotting the ball home just seconds from the final whistle.
Chicago manager Frank Klopas and Fire defender Gonzalo Segares were both ejected in second-half stoppage time, Klopas drawing a straight red card from referee Chris Penso and Segares picking up his second caution. Both will be suspended for Chicago's next match, on Wednesday at home against Philadelphia.

text: Ol' Ernie is down one remote control after tonight's game. Rip Jordan showed up tonight taking everything off the dribble. 5tuckey missed about 105 lay-ups. AI was the best Piston guard and should have been out there in the end. Curry coaches himself into these spots though. It was obvious after a half that AI was playing best. He waited until the start of the 4th to put him in which means he has a guy who hasn't played (by his own choice) having to play the whole quarter. Herrrrman adds LeBron to his hit list. He played him tough. Sheed was amped in this game to me. He was at the refs before he got into the game. CLE has LeBron and Mike Brown in the refs ear the whole game, DET has? Considering where this team has been this game was pretty good. If Rip Hamilton showed up like the one that played in BOS they would have won this handily. If you didn't watch this game you'll be surprised to learn that Tay played tentatively and scared versus LeBron. His alligator armed 3 at the end of the half was exhibit ZZZ of this. I know Sheed gets a game off for the tech, but do you think he'll get additional games for fouling LeBron's elbow with his face?

Carlsbad Caverns
National Park
New Mexico
A Journey Underground
Your encounter with Carlsbad Caverns National Park begins in the Chihuahuan Desert of the Guadalupe Mountains. But beyond the somewhat familiar surroundings of rugged mountains and broad plains is another world. Away from the sunlight, away from the flowering cactus, away from the songs of the desert birds and the howl of the coyote, lies the celebrated underground world of Carlsbad Cavern. It is an incomparable realm of gigantic subterranean chambers, fantastic cave formations, and extraordinary features. The first adventurers entering Carlsbad Cavern had no idea what to expect as they walked, crawled, and climbed down into the darkness. Today many of the wonders of Carlsbad Cavern are well known, yet the experience of exploring its chambers is every bit as exciting.
The Creation of the Cavern
The story of the creation of Carlsbad Cavern begins 250 million years ago with the creation of a 400-mile-long reef in an inland sea that covered this region. This horseshoe-shaped reef formed from the remains of sponges, algae, and seashells and from calcite that precipitated directly from the water. Cracks developed in the reef as it grew seaward. Eventually the sea evaporated and the reef was buried under deposits of salts and gypsum.
Then, a few million years ago, uplift and erosion of the area began to uncover the buried rock reef. Rainwater, made slightly acidic from the air and soil, seeped down into the cracks in the reef, slowly dissolving the limestone and beginning the process that would form large underground chambers. Many geologists believe that the fresh rainwater mixed with deeper salty water to form sulfuric acid. The added power of this very corrosive substance could explain the tremendous size of the passageways that formed. The exposed reef became a part of the Guadalupe Mountains and the huge underground chambers far below the surface became the natural wonder of Carlsbad Cavern.
The Cave is Decorated, Drop by Drop
The decoration of Carlsbad Cavern with stalactites, stalagmites, and an incredible variety of other formations began more than 500,000 years ago after much of the cavern had been carved out. It happened slowly, drop by drop, at a time when a wetter, cooler climate prevailed. The creation of each formation depended on water that dripped or seeped down into the limestone bedrock and into the cave. As a raindrop fell to the ground and percolated downward, it absorbed carbon dioxide gas from the air and soil, and a weak acid was formed. As it continued to move downward the drop dissolved a little limestone, absorbing a bit of the basic ingredient needed to build most cave formations - the mineral calcite. Once the drop finally emerged in the cave, the carbon dioxide escaped into the cave air. No longer able to hold the dissolved calcite, the drop deposited its tiny mineral load as a crystal of calcite. Billions and billons of drops later, thousands of cave formations had taken shape.
And, oh, the shapes they took!
- Where water dripped slowly from the ceiling, soda straws and large stalactites appeared.
- Water falling on the floor created stalagmites.
- Sometimes a stalactite and stalagmite joined, forming a column.
- Draperies were hung where water ran down a slanted ceiling. Water flowing over the surface of a wall or floor deposited layers of calcite called flowstone.
- Cave pearls, lily pads, and rimstone dams appeared where pools of water or streams occurred in the cave.
- Like oyster pearls, cave pearls were made as layer upon layer of calcite built up around a grain of sand or other tiny object.
- Lily pads formed on the surface of pools, while dams formed where water flowed slowly on the floor.
- Like oyster pearls, cave pearls were made as layer upon layer of calcite built up around a grain of sand or other tiny object.
- Another type of cave formation that decorated cave walls and even other formations was popcorn, which may have formed when water evaporated and left behind calcite deposits.
- Some of the more unusual formations to occur in Carlsbad Cavern are helictites, which grow seemingly without regard to gravity, their twisting shapes, impurities, and the force of water under pressure.
- Other rare formations are those composed not of calcite, but of aragonite, a mineral chemically identical to calcite but with a different crystal structure. These formations tend to be small, delicate, and needle-like.
Exploring the Cave
You can explore the vast underground world of Carlsbad Cavern along two self-guided routes. See Cavern Tours page for details. The routes follow paved, well lighted trails. Underground facilities are limited to restrooms and the Underground Lunchroom, where you can buy sandwiches, box lunches, and drinks. You begin your tour at the visitor center. At the center, cave entrance fees are collected and a CD ROM tour guide and up-to-date information on the cave are available.
Slaughter Canyon Cave
Ranger-guided tours of Slaughter Canyon Cave take you into an underground wilderness without electricity, paved walkways, or other modern conveniences. In this wild cave, darkness is broken only by the light of lanterns carried by rangers and flashlights carried by tour members. Among the highlights of the 2-hour, 1¼-mile tour are the 89-foot-high Monarch, one of the world's tallest columns; the sparkling, crystal-decorated Christmas Tree column; and the Chinese Wall, a delicate, ankle-high rimstone dam. Old bat guano mining excavations also can be seen. Tours are given daily in the summer and on weekends the rest of the year. A fee is charged. Reservations must be made at the visitor center or by calling the park. You have to hike a strenuous ½-mile trail to reach the cave entrance, where the tour begins. Sturdy walking shoes, flashlights, and water are required.
Preserving a National Treasure
The protection and preservation of Carlsbad Cavern is the mission of the National Park Service and the responsibility of every visitor. Unfortunately, many of the cave's smaller and more delicate formations have been damaged over the years by careless visitors. Experimental techniques, such as those that enable rangers to match pieces of broken stalactites and painstakingly glue them back together, are sometimes successful, but in practically all cases damage is irreversible. Please assist the National Park Service in preserving Carlsbad Cavern by observing park regulations.

By Joe Brewin
Arsène Wenger believes the Club had to keep a cool head to secure the re-enforcements they needed this summer.
The Gunners boss worked tirelessly throughout the transfer window to secure the likes of Per Mertesacker, Andre Santos, Yossi Benayoun, Ju-Young Park and Mikel Arteta.
Wenger says that, in a pressure situation, the Club did well to secure their late acquisitions.
"I think we kept our head cool," he said. "We had a lot of uncertainty about - it was the most disturbed pre-season we have had since I have been here because we had the uncertainties about the players going out.
"There were two big, massive cases - [Cesc] Fabregas and [Samir] Nasri - and then we had the problem of the injuries as well. We didn't know for a long time if Nasri would go or not.
"Then we had the fact that we could only complete the transfers very late. It was only possible then, and it was unbelievable how it happened finally.
"Also we had this big cloud of Udinese in our heads and we knew that the season would be played on that. But it explains why we are where we are at the moment."
Wenger admitted the late flurry of transfer activity was unlike his usual style, but conceded that the deals were necessary and logical to improve the squad.
"It's very unlike Arsenal, but (it happened) because the players were not available.
"We didn't do anything stupid and what we did made sense because on the financial side and the quality of the player side and the experience we needed it. It is now down to me and to the players to show that I made the right decisions."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Wayne Law Honors Convocation celebrates student achievement and donors' generosity
More than 80 scholarships, fellowships, awards and prizes were presented to accomplished students at the Wayne State University Law School Honors Convocation Nov. 14. The ceremony recognizes exceptional students and gives some of them a chance to meet their scholarship donors in person.
Forty-nine percent of Wayne Law's JD candidates received scholarships for the 2011-12 school year. Many of the awards are funded by former and current faculty members, alumni and law firms. Student recipients are chosen based on academic success, involvement in Law School and community activities, financial need or interest in a specific career.
"On behalf of the Law School, its faculty and staff, I would like to extend special thanks to our generous donors and benefactors," said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "It is through their efforts that our students are offered this annual recognition and support, allowing them to focus more on their studies and less on finances while students at Wayne Law."

Neil Banfield makes four changes from the side that drew 1-1 with Manchester City a fortnight ago.
Wojciech Szczesny has travelled to Belgrade with the first team so James Shea starts between the posts. Havard Nordtveit plays at right back for his first start of the season and Gavin Hoyte partners captain Iqnasi Miquel at centre half.
Former academy players Chucks Aneke, Benik Afobe and Emmanuel-Thomas again form what is quickly becoming a formidable three-pronged attack.
There is a place on the bench for Gilles Sunu, the French striker has been out of action for a number of months with a cartilage injury and could feature at some point tonight.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by blueadams, Jun 11, 2013.
JD would have to admit he made a mistake...like that's gonna happen.
I agree. I don't see why there is suddenly an obsession with Afflalo. He is a good, solid role player. You could get one in free agency without giving up anything.
Overall that's my opinion, too, but I thought the consensus on Oladipo is that his ceiling is an Afflalo-type player. Of course, the consensus on Darko...
IMO, words like "could", "potential" and "upside" are pretty dang powerful to a team with a roster like ours. Joe doesn't need to "hit singles". This roster needs a "home-run" in a bad way. Gamble on the dude with the biggest upside and roll the dice.
It all depends on what you have. If it's between Alf and, say Len... then Alf all the way.
Is he wearing a puka shell bracelet in that picture?
Oladipo is a defender first. His ceiling can be wherever he wants it. He already has half the game almost locked down. And hell no would I trade him for Alf.
Oladipo will be much cheaper.
Spellcheck was nice on his rookie contract. Now hes decent, but much pricier. By the time we are good to go he will most likely be on the downside.
The perfect scenario: Burke in 1st, Hardaway in 2nd. Feel free to comment.
Good idea. Hardaway won't last until pick #37, though. We have a better chance of picking up Glenn Rice Jr., if you are looking to maintain Wolverine connections.
Then Pistons need to make some deals. Burke, Hardaway, and Rice, and Finals are pretty much a guaransheed.
I like the idea of latching on to a particular school before the draft and then taking the best available player from that school each round.
Separate names with a comma.

Hmm... only minimum language options for standard keysets. As usual, Portuguese, the 6th most spoken language in the world is left out in favor of Korean (17th) or German (10th). I'm not sure I'll ever cope with this. But whatever....
Did read that paragraph, but somehow missed the bit about the feedback. Thanks.
For those of you interested, I recorded a short video of a rather nauseating software issue, not mentioned in the review. When resizing the window, the screen would wobble randomly.
Yes, now you get to listen to my delightfully posh British accent...
Another issue I came across was limited to the WoW Cataclysm keyset, where hovering over keys to edit would result in the highlight being offset.
Another random issue (although not really an issue) is the rather haphazard firmware update method... I'll leave this pic with you and let you try and figure it out...
6ft arms anyone?
1. This link shows you the different keysets available and the supported languages.
2. It's possible that the shift key could be a hardware related fault with this specific board, but the problem didn't always occur. Recent firmware updates may have fixed the issue since i have not experienced it in the last few weeks.
3. I did provide some feedback on the feel in the my final thoughts...
Great review Jamie!
First my apologies for replying so late. It's weird because I read through keyboard reviews like they were my last. I have a fetish for keyboards. Love this peripheral for some weird reason. But here I was suffering from a combination of lack of memory or feeling lazy.
Your review left me with a few questions...
I loved the keyboard concept. It's quite frustrating that I can only see this type of commitment to innovation and feature-full products on the gaming market. I can never get tired of saying this: Those of us whose keyboards are our main working tool, expect the same type of commitment; the same type of innovation. I'd really love to start seeing keyboard makers concentrate on us too. Just like when typewriters were acknowledged for being examples of technological innovation, keyboards didn't suddenly solve all our typing problems. They are in fact mostly still medieval tools when we think on what could be achieved.
1. ... And one of those things is exactly the Shift ability to change the whole key set. Do you know if this extends to being able to change to other language keyboards? This would be awesome for those of us who work on 2, or 3, and sometimes even more languages.
2. ... The problems you experienced with the Shift key. I confess I searched a bit on the web. I couldn't locate anything similar being reported. Could this be some issue with your particular keyboard? Did you get any feedback from SteelSeries on this?
3. How does the keyboard feel to a typist? Do keys being pressed offer some feedback? Could this be used by regular typists?
Two things I loved and hated about it:
Loved: The whole key customization possibilities. An absolute dream!
Hated: Small Function Keys. Again with this nonsense! And especially when the vertical space on thos pictures surely indicate those keys could have been normal size. I don't understand this fad of making those keys small.
|Rob Williams
|I find it ironic that the shift key has a problem on a keyboard called Shift.
|I've always hated those keyboards, hell I won one at a lan party and traded it for my XFI Gamer. It's no surprise they still fail. Good review though Jamie.

SteelSeries Shift Gaming Keyboard Review
If you're the type gamer who spends more than the normal amount of time tweaking your peripherals, then the Shift keyboard from SteelSeries deserves your consideration. Not only does it allow you to configure every single key, it also enables you to record macros on-the-fly and even switch out the entire keyset for another.

Hi! I am a qualified Teacher of English as a Foreign Language from Argentina, now living in London. I have been offered a place to study an MA in ELT and Applied Linguistics and I am interested in your views regarding career prospects in London as a foreign MA graduate in this field.
My initial idea was to go back to Argentina and continue my career there, but few weeks ago I learned that my husband's working contract in London will be extended and I will remain in UK for longer than planned.
Being a non-native speaker of English, I am aware that competition in this field is fierce, and my chances are close to inexistent when considering a position as an EFL Teacher (although I have never applied for a post in London). Thus, I am very pessimistic on the chances that this MA degree will pay off later, if I remain in London. On the other hand, I feel that I'll regret it if I don't take the opportunity to study in London.
The international fees, job competition with teachers who are native English speakers and this uncertainty about future job opportunities are main deterrents to my decision whether to begin this course or not. I have always thought that studying is THE way to improve in any profession but I do not want another degree hanging on my wall, just because it looks nice (I have 3 in the field of education).
So I would appreciate if you could enlighten me about job opportunities in London in my situation, after achieving MA level, considering I am from Argentina and have 9 years' experience teaching English as a Foreign Language to children, teenagers and adults, only in my country.
Should I study this MA or should I invest my money in something else?
I look forward to your comments. They will be truly appreciated.

Canon's largest macro lens, the EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USMMonday June 25 2012
The Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM would make a great companion for wildlife photographers – it is Canon's longest lens in its macro category. And as an added selling point, the lens performed above average in four out five DxOMark evaluation categories.
Insects beware. Someone is watching you. And it is probably a photographer with a Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM lens.
The lens allows the most daring insect and wildlife photographers to get remarkably close to their subjects given the lens' large focal length—you can focus on targets that are just under half-a-meter away.
Canon's 180mm Macro, at more than 18cm in length and weighing a durable 1090 grams, is also the camera giant's longest and heaviest lens in its line of macros.
Strengths of the Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM include:
- Good resolution, with sharpness strongest at the center of images and when the aperture is lower than f/11.
- Very little distortion.
- Some acceptable vignetting at the widest apertures; vignetting is completely absent above f/5.6
- Chromatic aberration is well controlled.
While the lens receives praise in most of DxOMark's quality evaluations, its one blemish was its brightness – its transmission score was 4.1 T-stop. This means its advertised aperture of f/3.5 is closer to f/4.1. This will make it difficult for photographers to take pictures in the dark, or in lowlight situations like at sunrise or sunset – times of the day when many species of insects and wildlife are most active.
Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM vs Sigma 150mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM APO Macro Canon, and Tamron SP AF 180mm f/3.5 Di LD (IF) Macro 1:1 Canon using a Canon EOS 5D Mark II:
Show interactive data, found here.
Advantages of the Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM include:
- Strongest resolution of the three lenses, especially compared to the Tamron 180mm Macro.
- Best controlled vignetting of the trio.
Strengths of the Tamron SP AF 180mm f/3.5 Di LD (IF) MACRO 1:1 Canon:
- At 920 grams, it is the lightest lens of the bunch.
- With a sales price of $690 (USD), the Tamron 180mm Macro is significantly cheaper than the Sigma 150mm Macro ($1,099) and the Canon 180mm Macro ($1,500).
Benefits of the Sigma 150mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM APO Macro Canon:
- It has strong resolution, and trails the Canon 180mm Macro by only a single point.
- The lens is the brightest of the three, with a transmission score of 3.4 T-stops.
- It is the most compact lens in this comparison, measuring just 15 centimeters in length.
The Canon EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM is a solid lens that holds up well against its competition. The lens excels at controlling vignetting and chromatic aberration, and its optics do a great job at limiting distortion. It is a quality lens, especially for nature photographers, but its sticker price of about $1,500 might be out of reach for some photographers.

so i'm kind of torn between two ideas with my old helmet. since i'm pretty much finished with my ms3 and that's going to be my new trooping helmet, that leaves me with a sgt fang helmet painted up rotj style. it was my first attempt at painting a helmet, and I think it turned out pretty good; it got me 501st approved. now my dilemma is this: do I sell it to someone else who would like to be rotj fett or do I keep it to repaint it to another version of fett that i've been wanting to do for a while, i.e. holiday special fett?
ok tdh, what are your thoughts? help me out here.

Sorry to be vague, but saying coming to hunt ACE is like saying thinking about hunting the coast of Louisiana or North Alabama.
If you get on a private plantation duck hunt it could be worth the drive.
If you are coming to hunt public areas and numbers of ducks are your goal you would be better off at Guntersville or 5 hours to Arkansas.
ACE is beautiful, but it is not Arkansas and most of the ducks are on private plantation or state/federal controlled impoundments which few of us non doctor/lawyer/indian chief types ever get to hunt.
Good luck and if you come, welcome.

The 2013 MAAC Men's and Women's Swimming & Diving Championships are returning to Buffalo for the third-straight year. Canisius and Niagara are both set to host the championship at the Burt Flickinger Center on the city campus of Erie Community College from February 14 to February 16.
Canisius will also host the MAAC Men's Lacrosse Championship for the fifth time at the Demske Sports Complex. The defending conference champions, the Griffs hosted the league title game in 2004, 2006, 2009 and 2011. Canisius, who earned the MAAC crown with a 10-9 win versus Siena in Poughkeepsie this past season, will host the semifinals on May 3 and the championship on May 5.
It marks the fourth-straight season that the Griffs welcome two MAAC championships to Buffalo. During the 2009-10 year, Canisius was the site of the volleyball and softball tournaments, while hosting both the swimming & diving and men's lacrosse championships in 2011 and swimming & diving and women's lacrosse in 2012.
Last season, the Golden Griffin women's lacrosse team became the first Canisius program to win a championship in Buffalo since the women's basketball team took the 2005 crown at HSBC Arena.

Phoenix Splits Double Header at Minnesota
By: Jill Wunrow
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay softball (13-14) team took a break from Horizon League play as it split its double header against Big Ten opponent Minnesota (22-14) Wednesday, April 11 at JSC Stadium in Minneapolis, Minn.
After being shut out 7-0, with just three hits in game one of its double header, Green Bay scored three runs in the opening inning of its second game for the eventual 5-2 win.
GAME 1 - GREEN BAY 0, MINNESOTA 7 - The Gophers got on the board first in the bottom of the second inning before scoring two runs in the third, fourth and fifth innings for the 7-0 win.
Green Bay stranded runners on base in both the first and second inning before registering its first hit of the contest with a single to center field from Danielle Peerenboom (Appleton, Wis.) in the third inning of play.
The Phoenix registered two hits and stranded two runners on base in the seventh inning.
GAME 2 - GREEN BAY 5, MINNESOTA 2 - With one out and two runners on base in the first inning Miranda Reinke (Milwaukee, Wis.) hit a three-run homer to left field, giving Green Bay the early 3-0 lead. The home run was Reinke's second of the season.
With two outs in the bottom of the second, Minnesota put its first run on the board. Green Bay answered in the top of the third when Alli Rivera (Geneseo, Ill.) led off the inning with a home run to right field for the 4-1 advantage. The Phoenix finished the inning with one run, two hits, one error, while stranding two runners on base.
Reinke continued her solid performance from the plate, leading off the fifth inning with a triple to right center field. Stacey Butts (Greenfield, Wis.) followed with an RBI single to left field, scoring Reinke for the 5-1 lead. The Phoenix finished the inning with one run on three hits and two runners left on base.
In the bottom of the sixth inning, Minnesota hit a solo home run to left field, before Green Bay's defense stopped the Gophers' rally for the 5-2 win.
Reinke led the Phoenix going 4-for-4 from the plate with 3 RBIs while Allison Goecks (Beloit, Wis.) pitched her fourth complete game of the season, striking out five batters. The junior pitcher improves to 4-5 on the season.
Green Bay plays its final nonconference double header of the season Thursday, April 12, as it travels to North Dakota with first pitch at 12:00 p.m. The Phoenix returns to Horizon League play Saturday, April 14 as it hosts Butler in a double header in its home opener at Ben Garot Field at 1:00 and 3:00 p.m.

The Princess and The Goblin
Young Princess Irene is kept in ignorance of the ghastly goblins that live under the mountains--neither she nor any of the castle staff are allowed out after dark. But when she and her nurse Lootie accidentally stays out so late, a hideous creature chases them and nearly catches them. Because of that, Irene meets the young miner boy, Curdie, who knows the weaknesses of the goblins. After her narrow escape, Irene is drawn up into abandoned parts of the c...

As a framer, I prefer inline saws to sidewinders because they're more durable and less likely to bog down in heavy cutting. What distinguishes an inline saw from a conventional model is the orientation of the motor – it's parallel to the base, so special gears must be used to transfer power to the blade. This gearing is responsible for the high amount of torque that inline saws can generate. It's also responsible for the name "wormdrive," the term most carpenters use for this saw; traditionally, inline saws have been driven by worm gears, though some now contain hypoid gears.
Fifteen years ago, when I started out as a framer, Skil was the only real choice for carpenters looking for an inline saw. Since then, a lot more companies have started making these tools and now there are quite a few to choose from. For this article my crew and I tested seven 7-1/4-inch inline models by using them on site in the normal course of our framing work: the Bosch 1677MD, Craftsman 28195, DeWalt DWS535, Makita 5377MG, Milwaukee 6477-20, Ridgid R3210, and Skil SHD77M. We evaluated them based on a variety of criteria, including power, features, and ease of use.
It's important that an inline saw be powerful enough to cut dense engineered lumber like PSL and LVL. Fortunately, all the saws we tested were able to cut these materials without straining. I attribute this to their 15-amp motors and the fact that they're geared to run about 1,000 rpm slower than sidewinders. It's like riding a bike up a steep hill – it's easier to do in a lower gear.
Blade Guard
Many tradespeople have developed the unsafe habit of pinning back the guards on their saws or completely removing them. They do this because they don't trust them to retract without snagging and stopping the saw. Guards are better than they were when I entered the trade, but some still snag – usually when you're cutting compound angles or trimming a small amount off the end of a piece.
We experienced more snagging with the Makita and Milwaukee than with other saws. It didn't happen often, but when it did, we found it very irritating. The guards on the DeWalt and Ridgid are the best of the bunch. They never hung up in use; we even tried to get them to snag and we couldn't make it happen.
Bevel and Depth Mechanisms
The bevel mechanism is an important feature for us because we frame a lot of roofs and are always cutting bevels. The gauge should be easy to read, and the base should pivot smoothly when we're adjusting it. It's nice when there are stops at commonly used angles like 22.5 and 45 degrees.
It should be easy to change the depth-of-cut – the base should pivot smoothly when we release the lock lever. It drives me crazy if the depth-setting bracket binds when I slide it up and down, as often happens after a saw has taken a few falls.
Rafter Hook
When I put the saw down I want it to be within easy reach for the next time I need it, and the way to do that is by hanging it from a joist, rafter, or sawhorse. All of the saws have metal hooks that will fit over 1-3/4-inch LVL material; except for DeWalt's, these hooks are all very similar. The one on the DeWalt is longer than the others and wide enough at the opening to fit over 2-1/2-inch I-joists. It becomes narrower farther in so that it will also fit properly on thinner material.
The hex head arbor bolts on the Makita, Milwaukee, and Ridgid saws can be tightened with an Allen wrench (which stores on the saw) or a standard hex wrench. The other models use hex wrenches only. It's a minor point, but I like having the Allen wrench there on the saw because it means I don't have to search for a wrench when it's time to change blades. Compared with a hex wrench, an Allen wrench is less likely to slip and cause skinned knuckles.

New Set-Up Rocks...and Rolls...
Just got out on my new board. The setup is the Arbor Alt 158 with K2 Auto Bindings and K2 Raider Boa boots.
I am thrilled with everything.
The board is incredibly light, fast, responsive, and feels like it has a lot of snap. Seems as though as soon as I think it the board is already doing it. Don't have much to compare it to, but I am really happy with the purchase. I didn't have a stomp pad on it, but definitely feel like I need to get one - top of the board is very slick, especially once it gets a little snow on it...
I was concerned when I got the K2 Auto bindings, but they were the only set the shop had left in my size and they gave me a good deal on them. After one day I have to admit that the auto/wire system is really convenient and a breeze. Made it really fast and easy to get in and out. My only concern now is the durability of the wire system over the long run, but I have to imagine that if there was a problem K2 would step up to the plate and do something about it.
As for the boots, don't have much to say. They are warm, comfortable, stiff in all the right places, and the Boa system is awesome for making slight adjustments quickly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Fran This vinyl flooring is beautiful to look at and comfortable to walk on. This stone pattern is beautiful and natural looking. Family and friends thought I had changed my mind and installed tile, when they viewed photos of the newly installed vinyl flooring! THAT is how natural and good looking this vinyl is! I love the comfort of the "Cushion Step". It really is noticeably soft to walk on. It is so easy to clean. I love the idea of the 25 year warranty. Looks wonderful as it pulls the red from my oak cabinets and grey from my counter tops and stainless appliances. My previous floor was a builder's grade 20 year old (dated) vinyl. I'm now walking on luxury, without the luxury price. Thank you Armstrong! August 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by CJ in Texas Excellent Product! We replaced everything in a bathroom--tiles, cabinets, fixtures and flooring. The first thing that people say when they enter the room is, "What a beautiful floor!" Even a tile saleswoman commented on the beauty of the product. Sometimes people touch the floor to see if it is really tile. I feel that this material is far superior to tile for persons who are older because the cushioning is easier on achy joints. I am considering having it installed in my exercise room for the same reason. Also, this product is far superior to regular linoleum. I feel that you should advertise it more. Thank you for producing a superior product. November 29, 2011

|Saw a 4 dor 67 plymouth fury for sale near by for $450. It think it has the right wheel base... Wouldn't have to cut the boxed frame. same drive shafts.. maybe a different Tcase will be similar enough. I think the manual cases were very similar to the auto ones. Then I could pump some serious HP.. all wheel burnouts, and tow 8000+ lbs with a classic fury..
99 Lincoln Navigator Chassis airbag solid rear
I have a 99 Lincoln Navigator Chassis. I am thinking of keeping for a resto-mod or selling for 1500ish obo
Frame is boxed and seems very straight. It is 4x4 with independent SLA front with air shocks and torsion bars. Rear is a 4 link with a sterling axle. Newer disc brakes, rotors and pads front and rear. This SUV was heading to 6000lb and rated to tow over 8500 lbs so the chassis is heady duty. with air ride and air adjustable front shock/suspension it would be stout and ride great!
Has the steering assembly just needs a shaft and pump hooked up.
I was thinking this would make a great classis truck chassis. I think it is about 67 inches between the outside of the rotors and a 119 inch wheel base. I need more measurements.
Would be awesome on the street with lots of power and an awd transfer case.
I am looking for opinions on what to do with this.. sell or use for a project of my own?
Also please give me idea on what body to put on it!

By Empire Maker out of the stakes-winning Seeking the Gold mare Sluice, Mushka won the Demoiselle Stakes (G2) at two and, in her last start prior to the November Sale, an allowance race on opening day of Keeneland's fall meeting. Franny Abbott, who acted as agent for Mrs. Moran, reported that the three-year-old filly will remain in training with Bill Mott.
Mushka was consigned by Eaton Sales, agent for Zayat Stables LLC.
The session's second-highest price of $1.8 million was paid for Santa Ysabel Stakes (G3) winner Baroness Thatcher, sold as a racing or broodmare prospect. Patrick Biancone, who formerly trained the four-year-old daughter of Johannesburg, signed the ticket on behalf of an undisclosed group of buyers. Biancone reported that Baroness Thatcher will join his stable in California. She was consigned by Eaton Sales, agent for Zayat Stables LLC.
On Tuesday, Keeneland sold 150 horses for gross sales of $42,006,000, down 39.5 percent from the corresponding session in 2007 when 186 horses brought $69,435,000. Average price was $280,040, down 25 percent from last year's $373,306. Median price decreased 27.3 percent from $220,000 to $160,000.
Cumulative gross sales for the first two days were $90,027,000, down 49.6 percent from last year's $178,499,000. Average price was down 35.9 percent from $469,734 to $301,094. Median price of $170,000 decreased 32 percent from last year's $250,000.
"There was more uniformity to today's session; it was more comparable to the Tuesday session last year. We saw active bidding from a wide range of people and countries," said Geoffrey Russell, Keeneland's director of sales, noting that the market continued to place a premium on quality young race fillies.
Eight horses broke the million-dollar barrier on Tuesday versus 11 sold on the corresponding day last November. A total of 19 million-dollar horses have been sold on the opening two days compared to the record-equaling 39 that were sold during the first two sessions in 2007.
The stakes-producing Oatsee, in foal to A.P. Indy, and her stakes-winning daughter, Lady Joanne, in foal to Mr. Greeley, brought the day's third- and co-fourth-highest prices, respectively.
Lincoln Collins, as agent for Leonard Riggio's My MeadowView Farm, paid $1.55 million for the 11-year-old Oatsee. By Unbridled out of the Lear Fan mare With Every Wish, Oatsee is the dam of multiple graded stakes winners Baghdaria and Lady Joanne. She was consigned by Belvedere Farm Inc. (Marty Takacs), agent.
Lady Joanne, who recorded six wins in 11 career starts, including victories in the Alabama (G2), Golden Rod (G2) and Dogwood (G3), was purchased in foal to Mr. Greeley for $1.25 million by Frank Stronach's Adena Springs Farm. The four-year-old Orientate mare was consigned by Gainesway, agent, for Bentley L. Smith Revocable Trust (Continuing Dispersal).
Jon Kelly went to $1.25 million to acquire the multiple Group stakes- winning filly Carribean Sunset (IRE) from the consignment of Paramount Sales, agent. The three-year-old Danehill Dancer filly was sold as a racing or broodmare prospect.
A half-sister to two-time Whitney Handicap (G1) winner Commentator brought the day's highest price for a weanling, selling for $520,000 to WinStar Farm, agent. The filly, by Distorted Humor, was consigned by Brereton C. Jones/Airdrie Stud, agent.
Keeneland's November Breeding Stock Sale continues through Monday, November 17. Sessions begin at 10 a.m. daily.


text: I hate writing biographical information so I'll just tell you the story of how the A-Team was formed. In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help and if you can find them... maybe you can hire The A-Team. I also enjoy travel, craft beer, spending time with my family and hosting the Boris & Robyn show on WPDH.
