Education, water issues top Legislature's list
Austin - Lawmakers expressed the need to tackle big issues when the 83rd legislative session got under way Tuesday.
Legislators will face balancing the state's two-year budget while addressing unpopular cuts to public education and a looming statewide water shortage.
Lawmakers from both parties said they expect additional money to go toward more than $5 billion in public education cuts during 2011.
In all, legislators cut more than $12 billion to cover the state's budget shortfall last session, most coming from health and human services and education.
Although there is agreement public and higher education will receive more attention this session, a broad spectrum of options were voiced, including pumping more money into districts, changing the school funding formula or increased funding to specific programs including vocational training in high school.
The release of positive revenue estimates by the state comptroller Monday lightened the mood in Austin compared to a gloomy 2011. But 181 lawmakers in the House and Senate must decide how much to spend, where the funding will come from, and where it is needed most.
Before lawmakers can debate how to spend revenues or the state's $8.8 billion Economic Stabilization Fund (Rainy Day Fund), they must address $5 billion in Medicaid payments deferred from 2011.
House Speaker Joe Straus and Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, the respective chambers' leaders, voiced strong support for addressing public education and infrastructure, specifically water and roads.
Infrastructure, Straus said Tuesday after being sworn in for his third session at the House helm, must be addressed if the state expects to support a booming population.
"A 50-year water plan without funding is not a plan," he said. "Substantial action is needed to address water needs."
However, lawmakers have gained little traction during the past decade when it comes to water. An increase in the Texas Water Development Board's bonding power, to $6 billion from $2 billion, for pipeline and pump station projects and maintenance was approved by voters in 2011, but no major influx of cash has surfaced.
Sen. Kevin Eltife, R-Tyler, said more indebtedness is not the answer to long-term infrastructure solutions.
"Paying for infrastructure with bonds is just a hidden tax on future generations," he said. "We've got to find a way to fund major projects."
Eltife said the recent drought pushed the water conversation forward, but the state should not borrow to meet needs. He said the state increased debt to fund the Texas Department of Transportation projects for the past decade without addressing the long-term problem -- a substantial, permanent revenue stream for roads. Meeting the needs with cash by increasing or creating a consumption tax or fees is the best, fairest, most conservative long-term solution, Eltife said.
Those changes would have to run the legislative gauntlet that will likely be driven by the upper echelon of state leaders, including Dewhurst, Straus and Gov. Rick Perry, who might try to pad their conservative credentials this session.
Jim Henson, Texas Politics Project director and lecturer at The University of Texas at Austin, said he doesn't expect the session to be "quite as vexing" as prior sessions but that the power-trio's signals will direct the path. A relatively inexperienced House and public relation rehabilitation by Dewhurst and Perry after abysmal political campaigns might mean a socially conservative agenda will pick up steam, Henson said.
Perry could resurrect immigration policy to reaffirm a conservative stance after criticism for lauding public education for illegal immigrants. A "pre-born pain" bill, aimed to appeal to pro-life conservatives, might also gain traction among leadership, he said.
"There is always a wildcard or two during the session," he said.
Henson said there appears to be broad-based support to address water after sessions of disinterest. He said some of the "overage" in the Rainy Day fund, possibly $3.6 billion according to the comptroller, making the total $11.6 billion, could be the least controversial use of reserve dollars.
"The question is where will the leadership be on policy items," he said.

MEN'S BASKETBALL: Lake Orion native Drew Maynard returning O'rena with Rochester College
ROCHESTER — For his first two seasons, former Oakland forward Drew Maynard brought Golden Grizzlies fans to the O'rena before bringing them to their feet with electrifying plays.
Two years later, the Lake Orion native returns to the O'rena with a new team, Rochester College, hoping to help the cross-town rival Warriors to their first win over Oakland.
"I hope it's very competitive," Maynard said. "That's the style we play at Rochester."
A heralded high school recruit, Maynard played in all 36 games his freshman season at Oakland, starting 20 times in the 2008-09 season. But he was suspended prior to the beginning of his junior year and played just five games after being reinstated before opting to leave the program mid-season. He then transferred to Division II Valdosta (Ga.) State.
"Playing at the Division I level, not many people get to do that," Maynard said. "I guess it played out for a reason.
"I'm thankful for the opportunity they're giving me here."
Maynard, who stands 6-foot-7 and weighs 250 pounds, in his final year of eligibility after receiving a red-shirt for the 2010-11 season. He's averaging 14 points and eight rebounds per game and said he's excited to return to his former home arena.
"It's a different feeling," he said, noting he's not going to overcompensate on the court. "I have to play hard and let the game come to me."
The Warriors (11-3), who compete in the NAIA, have their best chance in recent series history to take Oakland the distance, as they did defeating Eastern Illinois Nov. 21 for their first win over a Division I opponent. They also held a late lead at Kent State earlier in the season.
Maynard's former team is 2-6 and coming off a month-long road trip. Oakland coach Greg Kampe and his team are just happy to be home after the seven-game jaunt. Continued...
"I told them we were going to wear our white jerseys and they said 'We have those?' " Kampe joked. "It's going to be nice to play at home."
The Golden Grizzlies were just 1-6 on the trek, nearly snatching an upset victory at Pitt before falling in overtime. Kampe expects a warm welcome for Maynard from the fans and his former teammates.
"The fans like Drew. We all like Drew," Kampe said. "He was an exciting player to watch and he brought a lot of enthusiasm to the court. He did some great things while he was here. His problem was off the court. It sounds to me like he's gotten all that fixed and I'm really happy for him that he's having such a great year and helping a team I have a great deal of respect for. I always want them to do well."
The teams have met on 14 previous occasions, all Oakland victories. Rochester took Oakland to overtime on Feb. 17, 1997, before falling by four points. The Golden Grizzlies have dominated the last five meetings, winning by an average of 23.4 points, although their margin of victory was just 11 points last season.
"This is a game where we go about our business and worry about Oakland," Kampe said. "We know they're a good basketball team. They are a very well-coached team and we know they're having a hell of a year."
Thursday's game against Rochester tips off at 7 p.m. at the O'rena. Oakland then travels to Ohio, a Sweet Sixteen qualifier last season, Saturday at 2 p.m. That game can be heard on Oakland radio on WDFN-AM (1130).

FluoSpheres® microspheres in the 10–15 µm size range were designed specifically for regional blood flow studies in tissues and organs. Typically for these types of studies, the microspheres are injected at desired locations in the circulatory system and eventually lodge in the capillaries, where they can be extracted and the fluorescence quantified. The use of fluorescent microspheres eliminates the radiation hazards and disposal hurdles associated with radiolabeled microspheres. Multiple (up to seven or more with good spectral correction) simultaneously circulating FluoSpheres® microspheres can be discriminated. Microspheres that have been perfused or injected into tissues and organs retain their fluorescence following histological serial sectioning. Our FluoSpheres® microspheres for blood flow determination, which are available in eleven distinguishable fluorescent colors, are also compatible with blood flow analyzer systems that perform automated extraction and analysis.
FluoSpheres® Microsphere Specifications:
- Label (Ex/Em): Green fluorescent (450/480)
- Nominal bead diameter: 15 µm
- Coupling surface: Carboxylate
Carboxylate-modified FluoSpheres® beads have a high density of pendent carboxylic acids on their surface, making them suitable for covalent coupling of proteins and other amine-containing biomolecules using water-soluble carbodiimide reagents such as EDAC.
Choices for FluoSpheres® Fluorescent Microspheres
In addition to microspheres for blood flow studies, investigate our complete offering of fluorescent microspheres products. Among those products you'll find beads with these variations:
- Ten fluorescent colors
- Ten nominal bead diameters: 0.02 µm, 0.04 µm, 0.1 µm, 0.2 µm, 0.5 µm, 1.0 µm, 2.0 µm, 4.0 µm, 10.0 µm, and 15.0 µm
- Four surface modifications for protein coupling: carboxylate, sulfate, aldehyde-sulfate, amine
- Microspheres that are additionally precoupled with streptavidin, NeutrAvidin, biotin, europium, and platinum
We also offer hundreds of choices for UltraClean™ surfactant-free microspheres for research and commercial applications.
We'll Make a Custom Microsphere Product for You
We will prepare custom orders upon request. For example, FluoSpheres® beads can be prepared with intensities that are lower than those of our regular selection, a desirable feature in some multicolor applications. Our custom conjugation service is efficient and confidential, and we stand by the quality of our work. We are ISO 9001:2000 certified.

In July, metal band Lamb of God canceled its tour due to singer Randy Blythe being denied bail on manslaughter charges stemming from an audience member's death in a 2010 Czech Republic concert. The band canceled shows in New York, Los Angeles, Montreal and more than two dozen other dates.
But one show the band did keep was its Aug. 17 Knotfest date in Council Bluffs. The band returns to Iowa for a show Tuesday, Dec. 4, at the Val Air Ballroom.
"It (the Knotfest show) was right after Randy was released from prison, and the offer was still there to come and play," guitarist Willie Adler said during a phone interview. "It seemed like a very cathartic thing, to get together and do it again."
Adler said support has been high, "borderline overwhelming," and that metal fans are quick to rally behind those in need. Prosecutors in Prague are supposed to decide on how to move forward with Blythe's case soon.
The legal problems have meant Lamb of God hasn't really toured in support of the album "Resolution" yet, which came out in January. With "Resolution" Lamb of God continued the different style of recording it had started with 2009's "Wrath."
The band didn't want to do anything in the recording process that it couldn't replicate live. Gone were the filters and processors that add countless layers to so many rock songs today. What you hear on the album is what you'll hear on Tuesday.
"It's not like we changed how we played, it just made us aware of how we sound live," Adler said. "That's how we needed to start recording our tunes, because that's what kids come to see. If it deviates greatly, it doesn't make sense to me."
Like every other rock star, Adler and the rest of Lamb of God always have tons of fans seeking autographs before and after shows. People get instruments signed, album covers, photos; if it exists, Adler and his bandmates have probably signed it.
Adler has signed some interesting things, but there's one reoccurring item that always strikes him.
"Overall, it's probably the prosthetic limbs. There's a lot of fans at our regular shows like that, but we also do meet and greets for the Wounded Warrior Project.
"A ton of vets will come in and we'll show them our love. A lot of them want their prosthetics signed. And that's cool. It's a good thing."
Lamb of God
When: 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4
Where: Val Air Ballroom, 301 Ashworth Road, West Des Moines
Cost: $32 in advance, $35 day of show

the accolades keep coming for RGIII . . . according to the Washington Post, he has been name NFC Offensive Rookie of the Month!! . . . Congrats RGIII!!!
the accolades keep coming for RGIII . . . according to the Washington Post, he has been name NFC Offensive Rookie of the Month!! . . . Congrats RGIII!!!
He definitely deserved it. He is easily our best player and one of the best in the league as a Rookie. You just dont know if he is going to throw a bomb or make a big run. I do wish he would slide more tho on his runs.
This is pretty much what I wrote on the front page:
The award certainly comes as no surprise -- indeed it would have been shocking had any other player walked off with the recognition. Through the first four games of his pro career, RG3 has completed 69.4% of his passes for 1070 yards and 4 TD against only one interception. His passer rating of 103.2 places him among the very elite at his position. He has also rushed for 234 yards and another 4 TD, averaging 5.7 yards per carry. He is on a pace to break Cam Newton's record of 14 rushing touchdowns by a QB in a single season, set by the then-rookie Carolina Panthers signal-caller last season. Griffin's 4 rushing touchdowns are tied for the most in the NFL with Houston Texans tailback Arian Foster and Griffin's fellow rookie and teammate Alfred Morris.
RG3 leads an offense first in rushing yards per game [175.5], fourth in points [30.8] and third in yardage [1687].
There are five rookie quarterbacks starting this season and Griffin leads them all in yards passing, yards rushing, touchdown-to-interception ratio, completion percentage and passer rating.
. the easiest way to end a promising career is devastating injuries . . . lets hope he has a knack for staying away from them as much as possible . .
The shanahans are gonna get him killed if he is not better protected and takes less big hits.

Go to the story on our front page [via the link in my post above] to see the last time a Redskins player won Offensive Rookie of the Month. Also, see if any Redskins rookie won a similar award last year.

Preview: Hawks at Bucks
While most of the Eastern Conference contenders opted to stand pat at the trade deadline, the Milwaukee Bucks made the boldest move by swinging a six-player deal with the Orlando Magic. The key player in the trade was shooting guard J.J. Redick, who will make his Milwaukee debut when the Bucks host the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday. Although the Bucks hold a 3 1/2-game lead over Philadelphia for the final playoff slot in the East, they have been trending in the wrong direction, having lost two straight and eight of 10 to fall below .500.Most observers figured the Hawks would make the biggest splash and deal Josh Smith, and there were reports that Milwaukee was closing in on a last-minute trade for Smith before Atlanta general manager Danny Ferry decided to keep his mercurial power forward. The Hawks did make a pair of minor moves, picking up swingman Dahntay Jones from Dallas and center Jeremy Tyler from Golden State. Jones made a cameo appearance at the end of Atlanta's 122-108 victory over Sacramento on Friday night and did not score in 2 1/2 minutes.TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, SportSouth (Atlanta), Fox Sports Wisconsin (Milwaukee), NBA TV.ABOUT THE HAWKS (30-23): Forward Al Horford is in the midst of his best offensive stretch of the season. He overcame a pair of early fouls to score 24 points and pace six players in double figures in the come-from-behind win against the Kings. Horford is averaging 24.5 points and 9.8 rebounds in his last four games and is shooting a blistering 74.6 percent during that stretch. DeShawn Stevenson, making his second straight start, also provided an unexpected offensive jolt by scoring a season-high 17 points and connecting on 5 of 6 3-point attempts.ABOUT THE BUCKS (26-27): Bucks general manager John Hammond called the move to acquire Redick a "win-now" deal. Redick, a former first-round pick of Orlando, was averaging a career-high 15.1 points while shooting 45 percent overall - also a career best. Known for his 3-point shooting, Redick said he should have no issue blending into a backcourt that features Monta Ellis and Brandon Jennings - neither of whom are shy about launching shots. "I don't need the ball in my hands a lot,'' Redick said. ''I don't need a lot of touches. That's not my game.''BUZZER BEATERS1. Smith averaged 24.3 points and 16.7 boards in three meetings with the Bucks last season and has five straight double-doubles against them.2. Redick has made 117 3-pointers this season, three more than Jennings.3. Saturday's game kicks off a six-game road trip for Atlanta.PREDICTION: Bucks 97, Hawks 94.

The bountiful aromas include pineapple, green mango, guava, white nectarine, honeydew melon, lemon curd, orange liquor, white pepper, sandalwood, rose water, and beeswax. A mouthwatering, elegant white wine that..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Mouthwatering Due to the coolness of the vintage, this is an especially fresh, crisp and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc, offering bright honeydew melon, pink grapefruit, gooseberry and vanilla aromas and rich, mouthwatering citrus, nectarine and melon flavors.
Cellar/Tasting Notes This dry style Rieslings allure starts with its lemon-lime and stone fruit-filled nose that continues onto the palate with a great burst. It has the purity
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2010 vintage opens with honey suckle on the nose, with the richness of a Sauternes. Fruit aromas of fig and melon are followed by more complex notes of honey and brown sugar. Baking spices with hints of vanilla and almond follow as caramelized sugar notes add to the voluptuous depth of aromas...
Cellar/Tasting Notes This Chardonnay is pale straw in color, and once you put your nose to the glass and inhale the aroma of pure Chardonnay fruit, you won't be able to put it down!

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Chardonnay The Judge is quite reserved, especially next to the other wines in this lineup. Layers of rich fruit are hidden behind a wall of structure. Right now, the 2010 is all about potential, but the integration of fruit, oak and minerality is hugely promising."

NHL: Rangers open with loss to Bruins (update)
BOSTON — No NHL team had more players skating abroad during the lockout than the Boston Bruins. And when the labor strife finally ended, they showed they were sharp.
"It really helped with my conditioning," said Johnny Boychuk, who played in Austria and returned to score a goal in the Bruins' 3-1 victory over the New York Rangers in the lockout-delayed opener Saturday night. "It's good that a lot of guys went over there and got the feel of game play instead of sitting around doing nothing."
Tuukka Rask stopped 20 shots for Boston in his first game since taking over as starter from two-time Vezina Trophy winner Tim Thomas. Milan Lucic and Daniel Paille also scored for Boston, which won the Northeast Division last year before losing in the first round of the playoffs.
Brad Richards scored for the Rangers on an assist from Rick Nash, the former Columbus star who was New York's biggest acquisition over the summer. Henrik Lundqvist made 31 saves for the Rangers, who finished with the best record in the Eastern Conference last season but lost in the conference finals to the New Jersey Devils.
Rask backed up Thomas during the Bruins' 2011 Stanley Cup run and inherited the top job when the enigmatic goalie decided to take a year off to rest.
That was before the lockout that put the rest of the league on a forced sabbatical.
A dozen Bruins didn't wait around and chose to play in Europe, including forward David Krejci and defenseman Andrew Ference, who each had an assist in the opener. They played in the Czech Republic, as did Rask and defenseman Zdeno Chara.
"For sure, it was good to go play," Rask said. "But it's still a different game. I don't know if it helped me."
The Bruins opened a 2-1 lead in the second period and then protected it in the third when the Rangers had a 5-on-3 power play. New York managed just two shots on goal during the 90-second, two-man advantage and then gave up a power play with their own penalty 10 seconds after Boston's fourth skater returned.
"We didn't score and if we had scored, it's a tie game," forward Brad Richards said. "This is a tough matchup. It's a good matchup for the first night, to see where you are at." Continued...
Taking the ice 3½ months late for a 48-game sprint to the Stanley Cup playoffs, the teams played in front of a sold-out crowd that was given free concessions and T-shirts and an apology from Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs for keeping the game away.
"I think that we've done damage," he said in a pregame news conference. "We did hurt the game. We didn't just hurt Boston; we hurt the game of hockey."
Both teams had short shifts throughout the game, perhaps as a result of the shortened, one-week training camps that may not have been enough to get them ready for even a truncated season. But the Bruins, who had nine players skate in Europe during the lockout — among the most of any NHL team — seemed to have more energy at the beginning and didn't seem to tire as quickly as the defending Atlantic Division champions.
Boston scored first 14:14 into the season when Lundqvist, the reigning Vezina winner, stopped a shot by David Krejci but left the rebound where Lucic could knock it back in. Paille tipped Gregory Campbell's shot past Lundqvist midway through the second period to make it 2-0.
The Rangers made it a one-goal game at 12:50 of the second on Richards' goal. They had a chance to tie it when Lucic was sent off for boarding after sending Carl Hagelin face-first into the glass; 30 seconds later, Zdeno Chara was caught for hooking when he waterskied to the net behind Nash and prevented him from getting a shot off.
But the Rangers managed just two shots on the 90-second 5-on-3, and just 10 seconds after Lucic returned Nash drew a hooking penalty of his own.
"If we score a goal there ...," forward Ryan Callahan said. "It definitely hurts momentum. That's how it works in this league. You can't be discouraged by that."
The Bruins seemed to make it 3-1 when Krejci shot at an open net, lighting the spotlight that signals a Boston goal. But Lundqvist reached back and grabbed the puck — perhaps after it crossed the line; video was inconclusive.
Boston did take a two-goal lead as Johnny Boychuk celebrated his 29th birthday with a goal on a wrist shot from the right circle.
Notes: There were a handful of fights, including one between Mike Rupp and Shawn Thornton in the second period. ... The Bruins were 32-0 last season when leading after two periods. ... The Rangers pulled Lundqvist for the first time with 2:39 left but wound up getting a too many men on the ice penalty in the final minute. ... Forward Chris Bourque, the son of Hall of Famer Ray Bourque, made his Bruins debut.

I hate having to go to games like this (see: MNF vs Dallas)
Wide right
Music City "forward lateral" Miracle
We don't just lose games, no, they lose in the absolute most painful way possible.
One minute I thought we had the game. Just keep riding Fred Jackson, burn the clock and win.
Nope. Not the Buffalo Bills. Does it matter that we almost beat them for the first time since 2003? Nope.
Another special teams play debacles the Bills.
I hate football.
I hate having to go to games like this (see: MNF vs Dallas)
That was sick. My condolences.
But He loves Kyle Orton...
In all seriousness, I'm not a Bills fan but that was horrible to watch. Edwards and Jackson and the O line up to that point did a great job. That really sucks. Sorry to Buffalo and their fans. At least the team looks better than people thought.
Painful to watch at the end. I really thought the Bills would pull it out.
Good teams find ways to win.
Bad teams find ways to lose.

A man in Topeka , Kansas decided to write a book about Churches around the country. He started by flying to San Francisco and started working east from there.
Going to a very large church, he began taking photographs and making notes. He spotted a golden telephone on the vestibule wall and was intrigued with a sign, which read Calls: $10,000 a minute.
Seeking out the pastor he asked about the phone and the sign. The pastor answered that this golden phone is, in fact, a direct line to heaven and if he pays the price he can talk directly to God.
The man thanked the pastor and continued on his way. As he continued to visit churches in Seattle , Dallas, St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, and around the United States, he found more phones, with the same sign, and the same answer from each pastor.
Finally, he arrived in Massachusetts. Upon entering a church in Boston, MA. He saw the usual golden telephone.
But THIS time, the sign read Calls: .35 cents.
Fascinated, he asked to talk to the pastor, Reverend, I have been in cities all across the country and in each church I have found this golden telephone and have been told it is a direct line to Heaven and that I could talk to God, but in the other churches the cost was $10,000 a minute. Your sign reads only .35 cents a call. Why? Why?
The pastor, smiling benignly, replied :
Son, youre in Boston, Massachusetts now, home of the Boston Red Sox, the Patriots, Celtics, Bruins and Boston College! Youre in Gods Country. Its a local call."
Richard Seymour = the best defensive player that NE had.
I fully agree.
Only God would make a team lose 4 straight super bowls.

"She told me to take off my shirt and said that she has another one if I need one. And then the teacher asked me 'Are your parents Republican?' I said, 'I don't know.' She said that's like her wearing a KKK shirt."
Samantha was so embarrassed by the public criticism in front of her classmates that she told her parents she didnt want to return to school.
"I didn't know what to think, I didn't think it was right at all."
They requested a meeting with the principal and the teacher. The teacher apologized to Samantha and her parents saying that the statement was meant as a joke.
"It was funny to her, but I was really embarrassed," Samantha said.

Food safety inspections, early education classrooms and mental health treatment are all at risk if massive forced spending cuts are allowed to take effect at the end of this week, the White House said Sunday.
Those cuts would accompany deep reductions in defense spending -- including stalling maintenance on Navy ships -- that are also poised to trigger March 1.
In detailed reports for all 50 states and the District of Columbia, President Barack Obama's budget office spelled out how the cuts -- which are the result of a stalemate between Congressional Republicans and the White House over reducing the federal deficit -- will affect localities, putting the stakes of the budget debate in stark terms as Congress returns to Washington after a week-long break.
But some Republicans question whether the Obama administration is simply crafting a doomsday scenario for the indiscriminate cuts to force Congressional Republicans into accepting a deal that includes more tax increases for wealthy Americans, which GOP leaders say is unacceptable. They would rather cut spending on entitlement programs such as Medicare and Social Security, which they say are the real drivers of the country's debt.
Nationwide, the White House said, 70,000 children would no longer have access to Head Start early education programs, and 10,000 teacher jobs would be at risk, consequences that Education Secretary Arne Duncan detailed Sunday.
"It creates tremendous instability," Duncan said on CBS' "Face the Nation." "And there are literally teachers now who are getting pink slips, who are getting notices that they can't come back this fall."
Reduced federal funding for vaccines would mean children would go without shots that prevent measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus, whooping cough, influenza and hepatitis B. The report indicated 2,100 fewer food inspections would occur, and medical research would be stalled.
Hundreds of thousands of "seriously mentally ill adults and seriously emotionally disturbed children" could go without treatment for their ailments, according to the White House, which could lead to higher rates of hospitalization and incarceration.
And the Federal Aviation Administration would be forced to cut $600 million from its budget, which the agency's boss said Sunday would result in furloughs -- or forced leave -- for nearly all of the FAA's 47,000 employees.
"We're going to try and cut as much as we possibly can out of contracts and other things that we do," Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said. "But in the end, there has to be some kind of furlough of air traffic controllers, and that will also begin to curtail or eliminate the opportunity for them to guide planes in and out of airports."
