New wedges that focus on the perfect grind
When was the last time you thought about the sole grind of your wedges?

Is there any piece of equipment to which we pay less attention?
Featuring a radical triangular design (buh-bye square), this driver is dubbed by Callaway as the company's longest and straightest driver ever.
TaylorMade's most innovative offering for 2010 is the xFT (Exchangeable Face Technology) wedge ($129).
Recently, one of my students came to me with a curious question. "Doc," he said, "why do I hit it off the toe with my wedges, but not with other clubs?" We were on the practice tee, so I had him take out his wedge (pictured) and show it to me. He was right. He'd been hitting it off the toe so much that the clubface had started to wear down.

481-OGE-CH Polished Brass Eight Light Vase Center Chandelier by Oxley Giddings
481-OGE-DK Antique Brass Finish Eight Light Vase Center Chandelier by Oxley Giddings
This difficult-to-make light dates from an 1890 original Oxley Giddings, the deluxe manufacturer. The arms coming from the top of the light have decorative armbacks applied to each curve.
A very unusual and attractive fixture illustrating the grace and inventiveness of the period. It is a "transitional" light, having both gaslight arms and early electric fittings - now fully electrified, of course.
Fixture uses 4" fitter shades on the "up" gas lights, and 2.25" fitter shades on the "down" electric lights. Shades are sold separately. We picture 053G and 054G as a suggestion, and offer many matched sets from which to choose.
We have many deLIGHTful fixtures to go with this fine chandelier. For lower ceilings, check out 80-CCL-TL, for up to 300 watts of light. A wonderful newel post transitional light, see 299-FGE-NW. Did you know Victorians had wall-mounted reading lamps? Pictured here also is the single swivel light 505-MSW-ES. It's also available in a double-arm model.
Height: 46", shortest possible 28" with a spread of 28"
Up to 800 watts total.

Building a Winning Tradition: 2012 Season in Review
June 8, 2012
LEXINGTON, Ky. - Following a program-record fourth-consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament, Kentucky softball coach Rachel Lawson has formulated a winning tradition in Lexington. Lawson has directed the Wildcats to appearances in postseason action in four consecutive years while also claiming 27 or more victories in four-straight seasons which also resonates as a program record.
Kentucky capped the 2012 season with a 30-30 record, upsets of 12 ranked opponents, a Lawson-best fifth place finish in Southeastern Conference action, a program-record six captured conference series, and a senior class who became the first class in school allure to tally a .500 record or better in each of their four seasons of play.
Here's a look back at some of the accomplishments and season highlights from the 2012 season that firmly entrenched the Wildcats into a winning program.
The 2012 Senior Class
The 2012 senior class of Macy Allen, Chanda Bell, Brittany Cervantes, Ashleigh Gustafson, Rachel Riley and Erika Silence are the winningest class in school history with 136 career wins. The class is the only in school history to make postseason play in every season of its careers, and it was the anchor of the 2011 team that advanced to the NCAA Super Regionals. Each player contributed to the success of the program throughout the four years.
Allen was utilized in a multitude of fashions, but her career highlight is scoring the game-winning run in the victory over Michigan in 2011 that propelled UK to Super Regionals.
Bell is the only pitcher in school history to strike out 200 or more batters in each of her four years and caps her career as UK's all-time leader in strikeouts and wins.
Cervantes left her mark on Kentucky's record books with career marks in RBI and home runs. She is the only player in history to hit 10 or more long balls in each of her four seasons.
Gustafson's first career hit came in three-run home run fashion in UK's record-breaking 2011 season. The long ball ensured a win at Austin Peay on a date in which UK threw two perfect games.
Riley was a dual-threat for UK both in the batter's box and in the circle. She knocked off 10 ranked foes in her career, and finishes among the top-10 in home runs.
Silence fueled one of UK's marquee victories during her senior season. A three-run walk-off homer to defeat Arkansas propelled the Wildcats to winning ways during the SEC slate.
Continuing to Build a Winning Tradition
With a fourth consecutive march into the NCAA Tournament, the Wildcats are among seven SEC schools and 27 throughout the nation to appear in four straight postseasons. Prior to Lawson's tenure, Kentucky had never advanced to the field of 64 and had advanced to the SEC Tournament just twice before in school history.
Under Lawson's guidance, the Blue and White have finished sixth or better in the grueling SEC in each of the last four years, while also charting an above .500 record in regular season action. UK's RPI of 35 or better over the last four seasons has also helped push UK into the tournament. Coupling the wins with the strength of schedule, the Wildcats are entering the discussion as one of the best programs in the nation.
UK Softball Complex
With the Wildcats developing a winning tradition, the Big Blue Nation has followed. Kentucky has averaged more than 1,000 fans in each of the past two seasons at the UK Softball Complex. During the Super Regional run in 2011, Kentucky had more than 5,000 fans pass through the gates.
Fans in attendance have not been disappointed either, as the Wildcats own a 48-29 (.623 winning percentage) record in the friendly confines of the Complex. Kentucky has charted more home victories over the last four seasons than any in other four-year span in school history.
UK has also earned impressive series victories at home before the UK faithful. Here's a breakdown of some records at home during those series:
2009 - 3-0 vs. Auburn, 1-1 vs. Tennessee, 3-0 vs. Mississippi State
2010 - 1-1 vs. Alabama, 2-1 vs. Arkansas, 3-0 vs. South Carolina
2011 - 2-1 vs. Tennessee, 3-0 vs. Florida, 1-0 vs. Louisville
2012 - 2-1 vs. South Carolina, 2-1 vs. Georgia, 3-0 vs. LSU
Toppling Ranked Foes
To become one of the best teams in the country, it is only logical that you have to beat some of the best teams in the country. The Wildcats have achieved just that in their rise among the nation's best.
The Wildcats knocked off 10 or more ranked foes in back-to-back seasons for the first time in school history. Kentucky beat five top-25 ranked teams in 2010 to begin its climb.
During Lawson's tenure the Wildcats have downed a total of 31 top-25 ranked teams including 19 opponents rated in the top 10. Among those the Wildcats have defeated include Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, LSU, Alabama, Michigan, Auburn, California, Arizona State, Ohio State and Notre Dame.
Kentucky has knocked off Florida six times, and both LSU and Tennessee five times while the squads have been ranked in the top 10. Florida has been rated in the top five in all six losses to the Blue and White.
School-Record Six SEC Series
Kentucky made its postseason push with the most impressive SEC run in the Lawson era. UK captured a school-best six series with wins against Auburn, South Carolina, Georgia, Ole Miss, Florida and LSU. Kentucky attained a school-record tying 15-13 mark in league play and finished in fifth for the first time under Lawson's tutelage.
For the first time in school history Kentucky captured a series from Auburn on the Tigers' home field. With the 2012 series win, UK charted its fourth series victory over Auburn. Rachel Riley tossed a complete game, allowing just five hits and providing two of her own in her ninth upset of a ranked foe in her career. Ellen Weaver had a difference-making bases-clearing double to make the final 5-2 score in favor of the Blue and White in the decisive win.
Kentucky claimed the series with South Carolina for the fourth consecutive season under Lawson. Kentucky has charted 2-of-3 in three of the four years and earned a sweep in 2010. UK exploded for 10 runs on 11 hits in the series-clinching win over the Gamecocks. It was the most runs scored in a series in 2012. UK Had four extra base hits including home runs from Riley and Brittany Cervantes.
Starting pitchers Chanda Bell and Lauren Cumbess combined to yield just one hit in 14 innings during two wins over Georgia to seal a conference series' win against the Bulldogs for just the second time in school history. It was the first series win over UGA since 2000. Cumbess earned SEC Pitcher of the Week accolades with her first career no-hitter against the Bulldogs. She allowed just five base runners and struck out seven in the series-clinching win.
Kentucky won the series with Ole Miss for the fifth consecutive time (teams did not meet in 2011). It marks the longest streak of series wins against any conference team in program history. UK claimed the 2012 doubleheader with a 3-1 win in the opening game and an 8-0 (5) win in the nightcap. Griffin Joiner batted .800 in the series to lead the way.
For the second consecutive year, the Wildcats took a series from Florida. The Gators were ranked No. 5 in the nation in 2011 and fell to Kentucky via a sweep in Lexington. Kentucky then turned around in 2012 and took 2-of-3 from No. 2 Florida in Gainesville, Fla., becoming the only team to take a series from the Gators during the 2012 season. Bell led UK to the wins with a four-hit shutout in the opening win. It marked only the fourth time all season the powerful Gators had been shutout. In the decisive third game, she struck out a season-high 13 and yielded just one run en route to SEC Pitcher of the Week honors.
Kentucky then achieved something it had never done in program history. With a sweep of No. 22 LSU, UK took a series from the Tigers for the first time ever. The opening win of the series, a 4-3 eight-inning walk-off win, marked the first win over LSU in Lexington in program history. Bell and Cervantes led the way to the win. Cervantes hit .571 in the series with a pair of homers and drove in four en route to earning SEC Player of the Week accolades. Bell saved her best performance for last by pitching a no-hitter on Senior Day to secure the sweep. She earned NFCA National Player of the Week honors for her feat.

A great selection of street food of India- Pani puri,papri chaat,samosas,pav bhaji as starters and Prawn malai for mains... cant belive such an excellent flavours away from India. The best rasmalai i ever had and with very helpful & smiley staff it was just a treat. Great value for money....will be back again soon
It looks like this branch just had a refurb, everything looks new fresh and clean. This is a very nice place for those who like authentic indian food. I recommend a thali, where you get several different dishes served on a metal plate. If you prefer white tablecloth and posh dining, go somewhere else!
The meal I had here was wonderful, it was delicious, varied,at least 7 items in my plate, divine. We had limited time but the meal was delivered as fast as we had asked and was reasonably priced. Cannot fault it. The restaurant looks newly decorated and very colourful warm and inviting.
Visited this restaurant with family members who are not major lovers of curries but I wanted to change their minds. From the moment we walked into the restaurant we were made to feel very welcome. The pre 6.30pm menu is great value for 2 courses - we decided to have starters and mains. Food was fresh, hot and very very tasty. Even the non curry lovers were suitably impressed.

My younger sister recently got a dog (thought to be a lab/boxer/pit cross). I've not met the dog yet, but am concerned about it because I know my sister and the living situation. My sister is very irresponsible and has been known to have a violent temper. Her boyfriend who she lives with is also abusive and has criminal record which includes physical assault. I know I shouldn't automatically assume the dog is being beat on, but usually people who have tempers and are physically abusive to other people aren't the kindest with animals.
I plan to meet the dog and I'm wondering if there are some things I can do that might indicate whether or not the dog is getting hit. I've heard of things like lifting your hand up and seeing the dog's reaction (I've read that dogs who are hit will often close their eyes and shrink away from your hand).
I'd like to know this so I can hopefully put my mind at ease, not to have reason to incriminate my sister. She has absolutely no experience with animals or training, so I'm going to offer to help her with basic obedience.

Attention, college professors and conservation lawyers! Bust out your tweed blazers: Volvo's finally bringing a hybrid to the US.
Yes, it's a concept car and no, it isn't the V60 diesel hybrid, but it's the next best thing. The folks in Gothenburg have partially electrified an XC60, giving it a combined total of 350 horsepower, a 35 mile all-electric range and a combined gas/electric fuel economy of 50 mpg. The whole setup will be on display at the North American International Auto Show next week in Detroit.
The crossover features a direct injection four-cylinder engine and 12 kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, both of which work in tandem or separately to transform the XC60 from a pure EV to a car capable of 0-60 in 5.8 seconds.
Those options are possible thanks to Volvo's drivetrain management options. Instead of dictating a single combination of battery and gasoline power, the XC60 plug-in hybrid gives the user a choice of three modes.
We always wondered what those blank spaces were doing where buttons should be on the XC60's dash, and now we know. Press "Pure," and your XC60 becomes an EV that can travel 35 miles from its plug and charges in 3.5 hours at a 220V outlet. Hit "Hybrid" and you'll get 50 mpg and a total range of around 600 miles. Bump it up to "Power" and the car will use both electric and gas motors to get 280 lb-ft of torque for maximum acceleration.
Concept cars aside, we expect to see a lot more of the XC60's all-new eight-speed automatic and modular four-cylinder engine, which can provide fuel savings and increased efficiency even without all those batteries.
"It's time to stop counting cylinders," said Peter Mertens, Volvo senior VP of research and development. "Four-cylinder engines are the most effective way to quickly reduce CO2 emissions and fuel consumption without compromising customer expectations when it comes to driving pleasure and performance."
Despite that show of support for the four-banger, don't expect a T4 badge on the rear. This concept is brought to you by the letter T and the number 8, because the hybrid drivetrain — in Volvo's words — "moves the car into territory previously occupied solely by eight-cylinder engines."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Even finding a slip can be problematic. When we were considering the 44 footer, most marinas had no 50+ foot slips available and the ones that did only had them in really bad spots, like on the main channel with tons of boat traffic.
During my six years of owning a Dutch canal cruiser and exploring the French canals, I met many barge owners. There are many types of Dutch barge, from haagenaars, klippers, klipperaaks, aaks, but the most popular are the tjalks and the luxemotors. None of these are inexpensive to own and operate, and none of them are very seaworthy outside inland waterways.
That they look so wonderfully classic is directly related to their age, since most of them date to the early 1900s, some to the late 1800s. However, looks are one thing and current utility is another. They are quite unsuitable outside of the wonderful inland waterways of Europe, and even there, many owners with whom I have spoken freely expressed the wish they had opted for a more modern and easier handled (both nautically and financially) canal cruiser.
There are sometimes listings available in the USA by disenchanted owners who have discovered the mismatch between their dreams and reality.
Dutch Sailing Canal Barge 62' sailboat for sale
|A slip for a boat over 60' LOA is going to be very, very costly. Commercial insurance is also ungodly expensive.
|The final yearly costs would be the ultimate deciding factor in any large purchase. I will absolutely do more research before finally committing to a specific ship. I appreciate your incite Sailingdog. This is why I signed up to this forum. Experience and practicality do outweigh blind dreaming. If I find a way to manage it all, I'll probably take the plunge. If I can't, then maybe something a little more practical. I'll have to wait for the insurance quotes and marina quotes to come in (they are the first step) before i sign any paperwork.
I don't know if you're aware that the costs basically double for each 10' of boat ownership starting at about 20'... a 30' boat is twice as expensive, a 40' boat is four times as expensive, and so on... a 60-90' boat is really going to cost a small fortune... Steel boats are fairly high maintenance, since corrosion never sleeps.
While I'm all for wide-beams and shallow drafts, being a multihull sailor, I don't think I would want to try crossing an ocean in a canal barge, regardless of size.
Good luck...
Thanks Sailingdog. I have been trying to research these vessels as much as possible. I too have read that because of the shape of the hull they can be difficult to sail in heavy seas. Which is why I am considering a size over 60 feet. The added mass of the ship should do better to counteract the flat bottom hull. Additional, If the leeboards are large and and sufficiently weighted, the ship should have acceptable windward performance. They seem to be relatively easy to hove-to given their wide beam and shallow draft.
I will agree that maintaining a ship of that size will be very involving. Any work directly related to the hull and engines, I will seek professional help. Everything else, I anticipate will be a trial of love, sweat and blood.
This summer I will be looking into getting some form of coast guard certification with the establishing a limited charter business. My main purpose is to become a lifelong liveaboard and cruiser. These ships just have such a romantic look to them. Also, the cost to purchase them is spectacular for a ship its size.
You might really want to strongly consider what your primary goals are and then buy a boat based on them. Most of the Dutch sailing barges are not all that seaworthy, if they're what I'm thinking of... and would be very expensive to ship across the ocean.
IMHO, you'd be far better off getting a monohull or catamaran and using that to liveaboard.
How are you going to earn a third income stream with the boat? If you're going to be chartering it, then you'll need a USCG captain's ticket of some sort.
Also, what skills do you have? Owning and maintaining a large steel boat is difficult unless you have skills that apply to the specifics of doing so. If you have to farm out all the maintenance, you'll rapidly go broke.
BTW, welcome to Sailnet. I'd highly recommend you read this POST to help you get the most out of sailnet.
Buying a sailing barge-opinions
Greetings everyone! I'm a brand new member to the forum
I've been toying with the idea of living aboard for the past year and I'm finally ready. I have roughly 3 years of sailing experience everything from 14ft Americans to a 36 schooner.
I am interested in purchasing a 60-90 foot steel Dutch sailing barge (Tjalk) from the Netherlands this fall, giving it some basic restoration over the winter (hull, paint & engines) and then bringing it to the states in the spring of 2010.
I know the logistics of such a purchase are immense. I'm estimating my cost of ownership to run up to 30K/yr, but with two incomes (third being the ship herself) it seems manageable. Many would recommend a smaller ship, but this ship will be where I live, raise a family and retire.
Your thoughts/suggestions/criticisms would be helpful. Since I'll putting my house up for sale.
Thanks everyone!

None of us ever want to think about having to make that awful decision should the price of an operation being outwith our financial reach. For most this is the great peace of mind that comes with insuring your pet against the unknown. Certainly the media has played its role in making people afraid of various renown breeds of dog but even the little ones can give a nasty nip when frightened or even by accident. These days it is more and more common for people to sue dog owners for any injuries their animal causes and with an injury such as muscle damage or permanent scarring compensation settlements can be quite intimidating so having public liability cover when insuring your pet is paramount. †

When we first got engaged I took a 2 month hiatus to not think about wedding related stuff and just bask in the feeling of being newly engaged.
Then we kicked it into high gear. Picked out and booked a venue, photographer, houses to rent the weekend of the wedding, looked into caterers etc. Then another huge break.
Now here we are back in high gear. 7 months to go!
This weekend I am in Dallas. I get together with my college girlfriends for a reunion/party every year around this time.
Three of my four bridesmaids are friends of mine from college that I've known for around 10 years. My other bridesmaid is my sister in law who I've been friends with since the 9th grade! Amazing right? Then she goes on to marry my brother (they were also high school sweethearts)!
My bridesmaids are the best. They truly get me. I asked all of them either in person or over the phone. After the squeals and gittiness set in I sent each of them a bridesmaid overview kit. I love it. The kit includes: the four of you, attire, expectations and promise.
I originally got the idea to do this for my bridesmaids HERE and then I changed it up and made it my own.

Why did this elderly female at the polls ask me for my photo id like I didn't just hand her my voter registration card. I started to light it up but I calmed down, gave her the worst side eye eva & threw my license down on the table & said, "anything else? I have my BC & a utility bill too." Then I watched her ask no one else for photo id. I guess if your name is Becky Smith, you don't need photo id.

7 Classic Cocktails Every Man Should Know How to Make
Take your bartending skills beyond merely cracking open a beer or just adding soda to your liquor of choice.
Take your bartending skills beyond merely cracking open a beer or just adding soda to your liquor of choice.
1. The Cocktail: This New Orleans drink made from rum and fruit juices was invented by Pat O'Brien in the 1940s. Interestingly, O'Brien only concocted it because he needed to get rid of a lot of excess rum. He even gave them away for free to visiting sailors. The drink is now a staple of Mardi Gras and Cajun-flavored parties across the country.
According to a new survey from Gallup, 66 percent of adults drink alcohol, up from 64 percent last year.
But are these Americans who imbibe enjoying the occasional glass of wine or are they pounding beer after beer?
Alcohol is known to be a social lubricant. But many people also use booze to help them recover from too much action and interaction.
Frightening new data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) reveals that in 2009, more than 14,000 people visited hospital emergency room for intentional drug poisoning.
Peter J. Delany, PhD, the director of SAMHSA's Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality in Rockville, Maryland defines intentional poisoning as an attempt "to harm someone by deliberately getting them to take a potentially harmful substance without their knowledge."

Effects of flunixin meglumine on pregnancy establishment in beef cattle. Western Section of Animal Science Proceedings. 56:309-311 Interpretive Summary: During maternal recognition of pregnancy, the embryo must prevent PGF release by the uterus in order to survive. Subjecting cattle to stressors, such as handling stress, may be sufficient in some females to interfere with embryonic inhibition of PGF release that signals maternal recognition of pregnancy. Experiments reported here provide evidence that handling stress may interfere with this process more in heifers than cows. A single injection of Flunixin Meglumine (1.1 mg/kg BW, i.m.) was inadequate to overcome the impacts of stress.
Technical Abstract: Our objective was to determine effects of a single injection of the prostaglandin inhibitor Flunixin Meglumine (FM; 1.1 mg/kg BW, i.m.) approximately 13 d after AI on pregnancy establishment. Three experiments were conducted using estrus-synchronized heifers and cows. Technicians and AI sires were equally represented across treatments within locations and experiments. Bulls were introduced following FM treatment (approximately 13 d after AI). Pregnancy to AI was diagnosed 28 to 50 d after AI using ultrasonography. In Exp 1, beef heifers (n = 1,221) were divided within five locations to receive FM or no further treatment (Control). At insemination, heifers were divided into two similar pastures or pens and approximately 13 d later, one group of heifers within each location was worked through an animal handling facility to administer FM treatment. Location had no effect (P > 0.10) on AI pregnancy rates, so data were pooled. Pregnancy rates to AI were reduced (P < 0.025) among heifers receiving FM (65%) compared to control heifers (71%). In Exp 2, cows (n = 719) were assigned within two locations to receive FM or no further treatment (Control) 13 d after AI. At insemination, Control and FM cows were divided into separate pastures and only FM cows were handled after AI. Pregnancy rates differed by location (P < 0.01), but there was no location by treatment interaction (P > 0.10) so data were pooled. Pregnancy rates to AI did not differ (P > 0.10) between FM (57%) and Control cows (59%). In Exp 3, heifers (n = 247) and cows (n = 335) from one location were assigned at AI to receive FM or Control treatment approximately 13 d later. In Exp. 3, all cows and heifers were handled through a working facility but only half of each age group received FM treatment. Pregnancy rates to AI between FM (45%) and Control cows (42%) or FM (56%) and Control (55%) heifers were not different (P > 0.10). We conclude FM administration at the current dosage of 1.1 mg/kg BW approximately 13 d after AI did not improve pregnancy establishment in beef cows and heifers and that the additional stress of handling heifers at this time may decrease pregnancy establishment.

Olivier Giroud knew he would have to suffer an endless stream of comparisons when he joined Arsenal.
Thierry Henry and Sylvain Wiltord were both expensive French internationals when they signed.
That's not to mention Arsenal legend Dennis Bergkamp.
Oh, and Giroud was brought in to try and replace the goals of Robin van Persie following his £24m move to Manchester United. So no pressure then.
But the biggest problem facing Giroud was a comparison to a different player altogether. None other than Marouane Chamakh. The last thing that Giroud needs is to be called the new Chamakh.
Chamakh arrived at Arsenal two years ago, Arsene Wenger had been pursuing him for more than a year and, in fairness, the Moroccan centre forward actually started well before turning into a complete disaster.
Sadly, Giroud has found it harder going in the early stages of his Arsenal career. Giroud was a substitute on the opening day against Sunderland, missed a good chance, and also wasted opportunities against Liverpool and Chelsea.
Suddenly, Giroud - despite scoring against Coventry in the Capital One Cup - is talking about it taking Thierry Henry nine games to score.
"I need some time to get confident and to keep going," said Giroud. "Thierry Henry only scored in his ninth game, so it is a good example. For strikers it is quite difficult to adapt to the Premier League, so it is always close to scoring the goals, so I continue to keep confident."
Frankly, Giroud should not have gone down the road of Thierry Henry comparisons. Measuring up to the club's all-time record goalscorer is a dangerous road to go down.
And, most important of all, Giroud has something else going for him - he is, believe it or not, top of Arsenal's assists table.
Giroud has set up three - one in Montpellier, one for Andrey Arshavin against Coventry and, finally, another for Aaron Ramsey in the Champions League.
Santi Cazorla, Arshavin, Mikel Arteta have all provided two while Emmanuel Frimpong, Nico Yennaris, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lukas Podolski, Francis Coquelin, Gervinho and Carl Jenkinson have all provided one assist in all competitions, according to Opta.
Giroud is also a striker who, while in Montpellier, scores goals when in the starting line-up. Some strikers are impact players who come on and make a difference with their pace.
French international Giroud is more of a target man, he leads the line and even looks elegant. His flick-ons and touches are good.
His build-up play and running are superior to his finishing and yet Giroud is undoubtedly a good goalscorer as he topped the charts in France last season with a 21 goal haul for champions Montpellier.
Giroud's movement looks decent and, while he does not have explosive pace, he certainly looks more mobile than Chamakh. They are totally different animals.
Giroud is also articulate, intelligent - on and off the pitch - and his English is already superb. Arsenal perhaps look a striker light and I'd bet they'll go for a new forward in January. They can even claim it back on tax as an investment in the company.
Gervinho has stepped up to the plate and looked good through the middle. But is still not a prolific or natural finisher. Arsenal need a variation on a theme and I don't think Wenger will block off Giroud by going for someone too similar. He's never done that in the past.
Wenger is far more likely to go for a smaller player with goals in him. Because, after all, Giroud is a good centre forward who can provide chances.
Furthermore, Arsenal hardly play to Giroud's strengths. They don't play with much natural width and also don't provide too many crosses.
Giroud will come good but even he admitted after the Olympiacos game - which was the eighth time this season either as a substitute or that much will come down to him keeping his confidence, belief and dedication. And at the moment much of it is down to sheer bad luck.
Read the Daily Mirror match report: Gervinho on target again but Gunners are far from convincing
Giroud said: "I tried all that I can but sometimes you need to keep the faith, to keep going. When you are a striker, sometimes it is difficult. I don't know why, but I tried to do the right things.
But I think I am a little unlucky.
"Sometimes I need to score, I don't score but sometimes I am unlucky. I keep going, I continue to work hard in training and keep the trust.
"We play good, we play well and we had some situations to score. It was a good game when I came in, I am happy we won so it is perfect for me.
"People tell me: 'the goals are coming soon, don't worry, we trust you.' So it is very important to me to feel the support of people and my team-mates too.
"I think we are on a good run, although we lost against Chelsea. But I am confident of the future and me too I am confident, don't worry about the future, the goals are coming.
"It's like when you score one, you take confidence and more trust, so you know it is like that When you are a striker you need to score, but I am not worried about that. We won, and the boss trusts me and my team-mates too and our fans too.
"I want to continue, I feel good in this team, I assisted (against Olympiacos) and I continued to work hard and to score and go give a lot of pleasure to our fans.
"He (Wenger) said sometimes I feel under pressure a little bit, but not really now I am not worried about the pressure. I want to play and to take a lot of pleasure on the pitch and we won so it is OK.
"I think, like you say, when I score my first goal in the Premier League - although I score in the cup - it will be better and better.
"I feel I can say I feel very good in this city and with my team-mates and with the people who work in this club, which is a very big club. I want to grow up here."

Autumn Gardens
Once the glories of summer have passed, it is easy for thoughts of chill winds and winter frosts to occupy the gardener's mind. Ethne Clarke's Autumn Gardens is a beautiful reminder that this season can be one of the most fruitful and rewarding of all.
In autumn, although plants have reached maturity, they are far from finished; in this glorious season, leaf color, structural seed heads, tawny fading grasses, and ripened fruit take center stage. The first section of the book demonstrates how to get the best from the season by focusing on harvesting, color, and framework; the second section presents a collection of 100 different plants that excel in autumn, with complete descriptions and advice on care.

CBS News article on "early conservative reaction" to Kagan's nomination is filled with misinformation
Research ››› ››› JULIE MILLICAN
Following reports that President Obama will nominate Solicitor General Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court, CBS News published an article on the "early conservative reaction" to Obama's pick. The article only cited conservatives critical of Kagan's nomination, despite the fact that she has garnered support from numerous conservatives, and it advanced misinformation about her record.
CBSNews.com omits support of Kagan from conservatives and legal experts
The May 9 CBSNews.com article quoted three conservatives who were critical of Kagan's nomination and did note cite a single person who supported Kagan. In fact, numerous conservatives and legal experts support Kagan's nomination. For instance:
Reagan Solicitor General Charles Fried endorsed Kagan's nomination, describing her as "supremely intelligent," "an effective, powerful person," "and a very hardworking and serious person." The Huffington Post reported on April 9 that Charles Fried -- solicitor general during the Reagan administration -- "said that he'd support a Kagan pick." Fried reportedly said: "She is a supremely intelligent person, really one of the most intelligent people I have encountered, and I have met a lot of them, as one does in this business. She is very adroit politically. ... She has quite a strong personality and a winning personality. I think she's an effective, powerful person and a very, very intelligent person, and a very hardworking and serious person." Fried reportedly added that Kagan was "not ideological" and advised Republicans to support her. From The Huffington Post:
"Let's put it this way: she should be [backed by Republicans]. But it depends on the politics," he said. "Republicans may just decide that: 'We're going to say no to what Obama comes up with the first time and we'll come up with a reason why after we've decided that we're going to say no.' I can't predict that that's what they'll do or not. But she should be, she should be."
[Justice John Paul] Stevens is known as a sharp political tactician and a persuasive jurist, the leader of the court's "liberal wing." Fried doesn't expect Kagan to be an ideological warrior, but, he points out, neither was Stevens when he came to the court.
"I don't think she's a heavily ideological person," says Fried. "But, you know, when John Paul Stevens was put on the court neither was he. And, in fact, though he never admits it, because he never admits anything, Stevens switched his position on a number of very important things as time went on and he became kind of the replacement for Bill Brennan. So, you know, you can't tell. But she is not an ideological person."
During Kagan's confirmation hearing to become solicitor general, Fried said that Kagan "is a superb lawyer and an awesomely intelligent person." He added: "In discussion with students and in conference and dispute with colleagues she has a deftness, a quickness and an aptness of phrase -- with no tincture at all of pomposity or self-importance -- that show she will be able to argue to the Court with consummate skill."
Starr, Olson and other former solicitors general: Kagan held in "high regard" by "persons of a wide variety of political and social views." In a letter sent by people who "serv[ed] as Solicitor General over the past quarter century, from 1985 to 2009," Fried, Kenneth Starr, Drew Days, Walter Dellinger, Seth Waxman, Theodore Olson, Paul Clement, and Gregory Garre stated:
The well-deserved stature that Kagan has achieved in the legal profession will enhance her tenure as Solicitor General, ensuring that, within the executive branch, her voice and the conclusions reached by the Solicitor General will be accorded the highest respect. The extraordinary skill she has demonstrated in bringing to Harvard an impressive array of new scholars, her ability to manage and lead a complex institution, and the high regard in which she is held by persons of a wide variety of political and social views, suggest that she will excel at the important job of melding the views of various agencies and departments into coherent positions that advance the best interests of the national government.
Bush judicial nominee Estrada has "never met a lawyer who knows Elena and is not utterly impressed by her intellect." In a letter supporting her nomination for solicitor general, Miguel Estrada -- who Bush nominated to be a D.C. Circuit judge -- stated that he had sat next to Kagan in many law school classes and has "never met a lawyer who knows Elena and is not utterly impressed by her intellect."
Bush official and judicial nominee Keisler: Kagan "was brilliant, thoughtful, independent, and creative." Former Bush Justice Department official and D.C. Circuit nominee Peter Keisler wrote: "I have known Elena since we clerked together. Although we served different Supreme Court Justices, I came to know her well. Our clerk colleagues were an impressive group, but Elena was a standout even in that setting. ... She was brilliant, thoughtful, independent, and creative, but without even a hint of arrogance that sometimes accompanies such talent."
NRO's Daniel Foster praised Kagan as being "well-respected by just about everybody on both sides." In an April 9 post on The Corner, National Review Online news editor Daniel Foster wrote that Kagan "is well-respected by just about everybody on both sides":
Elena Kagan -- The first-female Solicitor General and probably first-runner-up for the Sotomayor seat, Kagan has a record of the kind of cagey jurisprudence that is ideal for a tough confirmation battle. She is well-respected by just about everybody on both sides, but lacks the paper trail that would reveal just how far to the left she'd sit.
Bush administration assistant AG Goldsmith: "Kagan combines principle, pragmatism, and good judgment better than anyone I have ever met." In a letter supporting Kagan's nomination for solicitor general, Jack Goldsmith, former assistant attorney general for the Office of Legal Counsel during the Bush administration, stated: "It might seem over the top to say that Kagan combines principle, pragmatism, and good judgment better than anyone I have ever met. But it is true."
Former Bush lawyer Berenson lauded Kagan's "fair-minded consideration of competing views." From a letter sent by former Bush administration assistant White House counsel Bradford Berenson supporting Kagan's solicitor general nomination:
Her legal acumen is more than equal to the task she faces, as reflected in her scholarship. The spirit of toleration and fair-minded consideration of competing views she brought to the Deanship reflect the sort of temperament and judgment that will inspire confidence in the Justices of the Supreme Court as well as the private parties with whom she will need to interact as SG. The same institutional loyalty that has enabled her to put Harvard Law School's interests ahead of her own will undoubtedly cause her to do likewise in service of the United States.
Fox News' Hayes: Kagan is "persuasive to those who might not otherwise be predisposed to agree with her." On the May 7 edition of Fox News' Special Report, Fox News contributor Steve Hayes stated that Kagan "is, by all accounts from people who have dealt with her personally and intellectually, someone who can make convincing and compelling arguments and marshal her arguments in a way that is persuasive to people who might not otherwise be predisposed to agree with her. And I think you're seeing that to a certain extent in the sort of half-embrace that she's getting from some conservatives, particularly conservative academics."
NAACP-LDF's Payton: Kagan "has proven to be one of the most capable and distinguished legal minds today." From a letter sent by John Payton, president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund Inc.:
Dean Kagan has served at the highest levels of the Executive Branch, been a law clerk for distinguished jurists, including Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, worked in the private sector for a highly-regarded law firm, been a law professor and is currently Dean of the nation's leading law school. Through these various roles, she has proven to be one of the most capable and distinguished legal minds today.
I know Dean Kagan. She combines intellectual depth with curiosity and dynamism. I am also a Harvard Law School graduate and I regularly visit the campus. Harvard Law School has undergone tremendous transformation and development under her leadership -- in its curriculum, in its diversity, and in its vibrancy.
Laurence Tribe: Kagan "is the ideal advocate for an administration that seeks common ground among partisan opponents." Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe wrote:
Simultaneously respectful of the views of others and capable of diplomatically identifying and correcting gaps in their understanding, Elena Kagan is the ideal advocate for an administration that seeks common ground among partisan opponents and that must grapple with the most difficult domestic and foreign challenges any incoming President has had to face in many generations.
Former assistant solicitors general: "Kagan is a person of great legal and personal skills, intellect, integrity, independence, and judgment." Six former assistant solicitors general -- four of whom also served as deputy solicitors general -- wrote: "In sum, Dean Kagan is a person of great legal and personal skills, intellect, integrity, independence and judgment. We therefore believe, based on extensive personal experience, that she has all the attributes that are essential to an outstanding Solicitor General."
CBSNews.com advances attack that Kagan's policies on military recruiters shows she's a liberal "activist"
CBSNews.com: Conservatives are "honing in on Kagan's opposition to military recruiting at Harvard because of 'don't ask, don't tell.' " The article reported: "Some early conservative reaction is honing in on Kagan's opposition to military recruiting at Harvard because of 'don't ask, don't tell.' "
CBSNews.com uncritically quoted McIntosh claiming Kagan "has been a vocal opponent of military recruiters on the Harvard Law School campus, placing political correctness above national security in a time of war." The article quoted David McIntosh, co-founder of the conservative Federalist Society, as saying, "Ms. Kagan's public comments should be highly disturbing to all Americans as they show what kind of a Justice she will be. She has been a vocal opponent of military recruiters on the Harvard Law School campus, placing political correctness above national security in a time of war. ... President Obama has, once again, nominated an individual who places a higher premium on political progressivism than adherence to the set of laws that have made this country strong and free. For someone tragically inexperienced and activist, Ms. Kagan represents President Obama's ideal of transforming the Supreme Court into a vehicle for social reform and judicial affirmative action."
In fact, Kagan followed the law and students had access to military recruiters
Kagan consistently followed the law, and Harvard students had access to military recruiters during her entire tenure as dean. Throughout Kagan's tenure as dean, Harvard law students had access to military recruiters -- either through Harvard's Office of Career Services or through the Harvard Law School Veterans Association. Moreover, Kagan consistently followed existing law regarding access to military recruiters. Kagan briefly restricted (but did not eliminate) access to recruiters only after the U.S Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit ruled that law schools could do so. As The New York Times explained in a May 6 article:
[Kagan's] management of the recruiting dispute shows her to have been, above all, a pragmatist, asserting her principles but all the while following the law, so that Harvard never lost its financing.
[E]ven when she ... briefly barred the military from using the law school's main recruitment office, she continued a policy of allowing the military recruiters access to students. [emphases added]
Moreover, during her confirmation hearing as solicitor general in 2009, Kagan pledged to defend the Solomon Amendment. [emphasis added]
Kagan allowed military recruiters access to Harvard Law School's Office of Career Services. In the 1990s, based on its anti-discrimination policy, Harvard Law School refused to allow military recruiters to use the school's Office of Career Services (OCS) because of the military's discriminatory "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. In 2002, after the Bush administration threatened federal funding at Harvard, Kagan's predecessor as dean created an exception to Harvard's anti-discrimination policy and allowed military recruiters access to OCS. When Kagan became dean in 2003, she continued to allow military recruiters access to OCS.
After an appellate court -- including a Reagan appointee -- ruled Solomon Amendment unconstitutional, Kagan prohibited Harvard's career office from working with recruiters for one semester. In 2004, a three-judge panel of the 3rd Circuit held 2-1 in FAIR v. Rumsfeld that the Solomon Amendment -- a statute requiring schools to provide the same access to military recruiters that they provide to other potential employers or lose federal funding -- violated First Amendment free-speech rights: "The Solomon Amendment requires law schools to express a message that is incompatible with their educational objectives, and no compelling governmental interest has been shown to deny this freedom." Judge Walter Stapleton, a Reagan appointee, joined the majority opinion in the case. Following the 3rd Circuit's ruling, Kagan reinstated the ban against military recruitment through OCS for one semester in 2005. After the Bush administration threatened to revoke Harvard's federal funding, Kagan once again granted military recruiters access to OCS. In 2006, the Supreme Court reversed the 3rd Circuit decision.
During that one semester, students still had access to military recruiters via the Harvard Law School Veterans Association. The New York Times noted on May 6 that "even when [Kagan] ... briefly barred the military from using the law school's main recruitment office, she continued a policy of allowing the military recruiters access to students." As Kagan explained in a September 2005 letter to her colleagues:
The Law School's anti-discrimination policy, adopted in 1979, provides that any employer that uses the services of OCS to recruit at the school must sign a statement indicating that that it does not discriminate on various bases, including sexual orientation. As a result of this policy, the military was barred for many years from using the services of OCS. The military retained full access to our students (and vice versa) through the good offices of the Harvard Law School Veterans Association, which essentially took the place of OCS in enabling interviews to occur.
I reinstated the application of our anti-discrimination policy to the military (after appropriate consultation with University officials) in the wake of the Third Circuit's decision; as a result, the military did not receive OCS assistance during our spring 2005 recruiting season.
Kagan's actions on DADT and military recruiters were within the legal mainstream and not indicative of activism
Military veterans at Harvard Law dispelled notion that Kagan was "anti-military." Military veterans at Harvard Law School strongly dispute the idea that Kagan was anti-military and stated that she had a "strong record of welcoming and honoring veterans on campus." In response to a Washington Times op-ed, three military veterans who were Harvard law students at the time wrote a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee that said, in part: "As Iraq War veterans who currently attend Harvard Law School, we wanted to inform the Committee of Dean Kagan's strong record of welcoming and honoring veterans on campus." The veterans also wrote a letter to The Washington Times that stated, in part, that while they opposed the restrictions on military recruiters, "During [Kagan's] time as dean, she has created an environment that is highly supportive of students who have served in the military."
Dozens of other law professors, other law schools, and the Cato Institute argued against government's interpretation of Solomon Amendment. As Media Matters for America has documented, Kagan joined a brief filed on behalf of 40 Harvard law professors arguing against the government's interpretation of the Solomon Amendment. Briefs filed on behalf of 100 other law professors also argued against the Solomon Amendment or the government's interpretation of that amendment, as did other organizations including the Cato Institute.
Numerous law schools restricted military recruiters' access because of the discriminatory "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. The Joint Appendix filed in connection with the appeal of FAIR v. Rumsfeld to the Supreme Court contains statements from numerous law professors detailing their law schools' attempts to restrict military recruiters' access to career services offices. Following the 3rd Circuit's decision, in addition to Harvard, Yale and New York Law School also reportedly reinstituted their restrictions against military recruiters.
Mullen said DADT compromises military's "integrity." While conservatives have claimed Kagan's rhetoric opposing the ban on openly gay service members is somehow extreme, Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has argued that the policy compromises the military's "integrity." In February 2 Senate testimony, Mullen stated:
Mr. Chairman, speaking for myself and myself only, it is my personal belief that allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly would be the right thing to do. No matter how I look at the issue, I cannot escape being troubled by the fact that we have in place a policy which forces young men and women to lie about who they are in order to defend their fellow citizens.
For me, personally, it comes down to integrity -- theirs as individuals and ours as an institution.
I also believe that the great young men and women of our military can and would accommodate such a change. I never underestimate their ability to adapt.
Kagan pledged to defend Solomon Amendment as solicitor general despite her personal views. In a written statement during her confirmation process for solicitor general, Kagan wrote:
As I stated at my confirmation hearing, I know well the facts and issues involved in Rumsfeld v. FAIR, 547 U.S. 47 (2006), and I feel confident in saying that had I been Solicitor General at the time that the 3rd Circuit held the Solomon Amendment unconstitutional, I would have sought certiorari in the Supreme Court, exactly as then-Solicitor General Paul Clement did. A fortiori, now that the Supreme Court has upheld the Solomon Amendment, if confirmed I would vigorously defend it against constitutional challenge. I would not recuse myself from participating in or personally arguing such a case because I would feel confident in my ability to supply such a defense given the responsibilities and role of the Solicitor General. I understand that role as representing the interests of the United States, not my personal views. I indeed think that I would enjoy, as well as be deeply honored by, the Solicitor General's position if I am fortunate enough to be confirmed. The advocate's role is frequently to put aside any interests or positions other than those of her clients. And as I hope I expressed at my confirmation hearing, I would take enormous pride in representing and advancing the interests of the United States as a client -- even if I would not myself have voted for every one of its statutes. [emphasis added]
CBSNews.com advances attack that Kagan is "inexperienced" and lacks judicial experience
CBSNews.com quoted Federalist Society attack that Kagan "is one of the most inexperienced nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court in recent memory" because she has "no judicial experience." The CBSNews.com article also quoted McIntosh as saying he was "deeply disappointed" in Obama's nomination, adding: "Solicitor General Kagan has been nominated with no judicial experience, a mere two years of private law practice, and only a year as Solicitor General of the United States. She is one of the most inexperienced nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court in recent memory."
CBSNews.com advanced Whelan's attack that Kagan "may well be the nominee with the least amount of relevant experience" in the past 50 years. The article also quoted National Review Online's Ed Whelan -- a frequent purveyor of conservative attacks on Obama's judicial nominees -- as saying of Kagan: "Among Supreme Court nominees over the last 50 years or more, Kagan may well be the nominee with the least amount of relevant experience."
In fact, numerous Supreme Court justices had little or no judicial experience prior to joining the Court
Two of the past four chief justices did not have prior judicial experience. William Rehnquist and Earl Warren -- two of the past four chief justices -- had never been judges before their appointments as justices. Both were nominated by Republican presidents.
Former Chief Justice John Marshall and former associate Justices Louis Brandeis and Felix Frankfurter had no prior judicial experience. Former Chief Justice John Marshall, frequently referred to as the "great chief justice," and former associate Justices Louis Brandeis and Felix Frankfurter also had no judicial experience at the time of their Supreme Court appointment.
Kagan has not had judicial experience because GOP blocked her nomination. Kagan was nominated to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in 1999 by President Clinton, and the Senate, then controlled by Republicans, blocked her nomination.
Clarence Thomas had been a judge for only 16 months when he was nominated for a Supreme Court position. Thomas had only been a judge for 16 months when George H.W. Bush nominated him for the Supreme Court.
Citing Frankfurter, GOP Sen. Hatch stated, "I have long believed that prior judicial experience is not a prerequisite for successful judicial service." On March 19, 2009, during the floor debate on Kagan's nomination to be solicitor general, Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch (UT) stated:
I have long believed that prior judicial experience is not a prerequisite for successful judicial service. Justice Felix Frankfurter taught at Harvard Law School from 1921 until President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed him to the Supreme Court in 1939. During that time, by the way, he turned down the opportunity to become Solicitor General. But Justice Frankfurter famously wrote in 1957 that the correlation between prior judicial experience and fitness for the Supreme Court is, as he put it, "precisely zero.''
Indeed, 40 of 111 Supreme Court justices had no prior judicial experience. From Findlaw.com:
CBSNews.com advanced Whelan's claim that Kagan should be held to "Kagan Standard"
CBSNews.com quoted Whelan arguing that Kagan should abide by her 15-year-old argument that nominees should answer questions on issues that will come before the court. CBSNews.com quoted Whelan as saying, "Elena Kagan has written that the confirmation process for Supreme Court justices 'takes on an air of vacuity and farce' when the Senate fails 'to engage nominees in meaningful discussion of legal issues.' She's argued for 'the essential rightness -- the legitimacy and the desirability -- of exploring a Supreme Court nominee's set of constitutional views and commitments. ... It's especially important that the Senate hold Kagan to the Kagan Standard." Kagan had reportedly argued in a 1995 book review that nominees should be "forced to say what they think about disputed issues such as abortion, affirmative action and privacy."
Roberts and Alito repeatedly refused to answer questions, and Republicans suggested it would be improper for them to do so
Roberts repeatedly refused to answer questions during his confirmation hearing. According to a September 15, 2005, The New York Times article, Chief Justice John Roberts refused to answer questions on more than 50 occasions.
Alito also repeatedly refused to answer questions. During his 2006 hearing, Justice Samuel Alito also refused to answer questions on numerous occasions.
Republican senators suggested it would be improper for Roberts and Alito to answer questions on specific issues that might come before the Supreme Court.
- Kyl said Roberts refusing to answer questions "in ways that could signal how he might rule" is "the proper standard." Before the September 22, 2005, vote on Roberts' nomination to the Supreme Court, Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) stated: "In my opening remarks, I told John Roberts that I would defend his position in complying with the canons of judicial ethics, and the traditions of the committee not to testify in ways that could signal how he might rule on a matter that was likely to come before the court. That is the proper standard, he adhered to that standard, and I defend his right to do so" (from the Nexis database).
- Cornyn: "No one is entitled to know ... how Judge Roberts will rule" on hot-button issues. During the September 22, 2005, edition of PBS' The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) stated: "I submit that particularly in courts of law, no one -- no one is entitled to know ahead of time what the outcome will be because the very premise of our judicial process is that courts are supposed to be fair and listen to both sides, or all sides of an argument. The judges are supposed to be disinterested in the outcome, and impartial, and that judges finally be independent of the political process. So no one is entitled to know what Judge Roberts -- how Judge Roberts will rule on these hot-button issues of the day. No one is."
- Hatch: "Nominees may not be able to answer questions that seek hints" about how they would rule. During the Roberts hearing, Hatch stated: "Nominees may not be able to answer questions that seek hints, forecasts or previews about how they would rule on particular issues." He later added: "Nominees may not be able to answer questions asking them to opine or speculate about hypotheticals outside of an actual case with concrete issues and real facts."
- Grassley: "I'm hoping we won't see a badgering of the nominee about how he'll rule on ... possible issues that will or may come before the Supreme Court." Also during the Roberts hearing, Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA) stated: "I'm hoping that we won't see a badgering of the nominee about how he'll rule on specific cases and possible issues that will or may come before the Supreme Court." Grassley also said, "And let me remind my colleagues that Justices Ginsburg and Breyer refused to answer questions on how they would rule on cases during their confirmation hearings."
Hatch suggested that Kagan shouldn't be held to the arguments in her book review. During the confirmation hearing on Kagan's appointment as solicitor general, Hatch discussed Kagan's article on what questions a nominee should answer. He said: "If you want to know the truth, I remember when Judge Bork was here. He has written some outlandish things from time to time. But he was absolutely brilliant. And he did it more as an academic, as a teacher. And some on this committee held that against him very badly. But the fact of the matter is that I don't -- I think it's good for teachers to raise all kinds of issues and all -- on all sides of cases." From the hearing (from Nexis):
HATCH: Well, in your book -- in your review of, Professor, Stephen Carter's book on the confirmation process, you wrote that the Senate should ask judicial nominees about their views on constitutional issues, the direction they would take the court, and even about votes that they would cast. Now, I'd like...
KAGAN: The -- the...
HATCH: Even about votes they would cast. How do you square this with the principle that judges must be impartial and with the oath they take to provide justice without respect of persons?
KAGAN: It's a great question, Senator. And I'm not sure that, sitting here today, I would agree with that statement.
I was -- I was -- I wrote that piece after I had worked on -- on this committee. I had the privilege of...
HATCH: If you want to know the truth, I remember when Judge Bork was here. He has written some outlandish things from time to time. But he was absolutely brilliant. And he did it more as an academic, as a teacher. And some on this committee held that against him very badly. But the fact of the matter is that I don't -- I think it's good for teachers to raise all kinds of issues and all -- on all sides of cases.
KAGAN: Right. Right.
HATCH: And you're good at that.
KAGAN: Well, thank you, Senator. I was just going to say, you know, I wrote that when I was in a position of sitting where the staff is now sitting, and feeling a little bit frustrated that -- that I really wasn't understanding completely what the judicial nominee in front of me meant, and what -- what -- what she thought.
But I think that you're exactly right, of course, that there are other -- that -- that this has to be a balance. The Senate has to get the information that it needs, but as well, the nominee for any particular position, whether it's judicial or otherwise, has to be protective of -- of certain kinds of interests, and you named the countervailing ones.
HATCH: Let me just say that I may not agree that Thurgood Marshall was the greatest attorney of the last century, but I agree with you. He's one of the greatest. And I have nothing but respect for what he did for the civil rights community, and the courage that he had in doing that. And so I think -- I just commend you for having had the privilege for working with him, and others on the Supreme Court who were giants at that time when you were there. So I think you've had some tremendous experiences in your life. And -- and naturally, I respect that.

2011 = Tag Soup
Deerless in 2011. First time since I've been hunting seriously. Dont quite know what to think. With an empty freezer looks like 2012 will be vegetarian by default.
I'm right there with you ! I'm still deer less myself so far, health and work both have limited my time in the woods this year, so I'm also looking for good tag soup recipes. Lol.
Here in ky I do have till jan 14th I think to get a late deer with bow, so after Christmas I'm going hard at it. Although its been my worse season ever it's also been my best only because I did get my son on his first deer ever, so if I end up deer less I guess I can always simer on that and smile anyways
Our tags in NY are made of thin plastic. They are nearly impossible to rip. They may need to simmer for a long time, or possibly placed in a crock pot overnight :)
This has been a terrible year for deer hunting in New York.I know countless camps who have 1 or no deer outta 8 to 12 guys.Cant wait to see what the DEC says about the harvest:crazy:
I still have all my 2011 tags too. No deer for me again this year but this is what i expected after the winter we had last year.
There's always hopes of putting some venison in the freezer but some years it just doesn't happen.
We had a severe winter last year, I knew the winter severity was going to be felt by every hunter here in the northeast region.
Deer already struggle to make it through a normal winter, when we get end of season snow falls it adds to their struggle, it really puts a hurting on their winter survival rate.
That along with this years harvest rates is going to impact next years hunts as well but you can bet i'll be in the woods again next year enjoying every day I get to spend in the woods.
I never measure hunting success by harvests, If I did, I would have had to give up on hunting many years ago.
I'm going to need a deer indentification refresher course.
Going to give it one more shot tonight. I should be able to get out of work and spend the last hour of deer season in the woods. Watching the woods fill up with darkness is the only way I know how to close out deer season.
deerless too!:thumbdown:
Season is now closed. No deer, never fired a shot.
I feel for you guys. Usually it is me, not because I dont see deer but because I cant draw a tag to go hunting.
