The Green Bay Packers made their pitch to free agent running back Stephen Jackson but it wasnt enough. He signed on with Atlanta yesterday and now the Packers will probably look to the draft for running back help. I'm probably biased but they could do alot worse than giving Montee Ball a shot. The difference between Ball and guys they already have is that Ball can be a three down back. He can catch passes and is a good blocker as well...and we all know what he can do running the football. I know Badger fans usually look at Wisconsin players in a better light than many scouts but it also seems that the Packers have looked more critically at home grown players over the years than other NFL teams. Jackson would have been a good addition to the Packers. Even at the age of 30 I believe he has more gas in the tank than guys like Cedric Benson...but he's a Falcon now and if the Packers do want to upgrade their RB position they have to look beyond what they already have...and Ball will probably be there when they pick.
The Badgers get a tough matchup in the Big Ten Tournament this afternoon. Michigan dismnatled Penn State yesterday and now Wisconsin will have to contend with the Big Ten Player of The Year in Trey Burke and the other talentd Wolverines. You can hear the game on WSAU at 12:30.
Its a doubleheader of Badger action today. The mens' hockey team hosts Minnesota-Duluth in a best of three series beginning tonight. You can hear the game on WSAU at 6:30.
The Bucks also play tonight...beginning a three game homestand. They have lost 2 in a row and face a brutal matchup tonight. The Miami Heat come into town riding a 20 game winning streak. The Bucks have beaten the Heat this year...can they do it again??
The Brewers are back in action this afternoon after a rare day off. They host Cleveland. Team USA has to play a loser out game tonight in the World Baseball Classic against Puerto Rico. The US lost to the Dominican Republic last night 3-1.
Wisconsin Rapids Assumption advanced at the Girls State Basketball Championships with a 60-37 thumping of Wausau Newman.

Songs Of The Day (from my I-pod)
Long Haired Country Boy-Charlie Daniels Band (1974) before he became a conservative icon...he was just a good ole boy from Tennesse. This was the 70's when songs with overt drug references got played on the radio all the time
Long Hard Ride-Marshall Tucker Band (1976) another example of 70's southern rock from this outstanding group from South Carolina. Led by the thumb-picking Toy Caldwell on guitar. Saw them at Quandt Fieldhouse in Stevens Point back in 1977.

Manatee Board of County Commissioners today approved the concept of a two-lane Fort Hamer Bridge that Manatee County Public Works Department says can be built for less than $30 million.
On a 6-1 vote, the board directed Public Works to return in three months with a set of criteria for the bridge to be designed and built through the public bidding process. The new plan eliminates the need for a six-lane, $130 million toll span to connect roadways across the Upper Manatee River.
Public Works Director Ron Schulhofer proposed the scaled-down version of the bridge — two lanes instead of six — that will accommodate East County traffic for several years until the bridge needs to be widened to four lanes.
"(A two-lane bridge) would put the least impact as possible on environment," Schulhofer said. "It would be less intrusive on neighbors. It's financially feasible and local folks could (build) it."
Once complete, the brdige could shorten drive times by as much as seven minutes for emergency responders delivering patients from North Manatee to Manatee Memorial Hospital or Lakewood Ranch Medical Center.
Schulhofer said the work could be done for less because fewer lanes are planned; construction costs for materials are lower and because competition between bidders will ensure a lower price.
"I've always said we need a bridge to diversify our road system," said County Commissioner Ron Getman, a former Florida Highway Patrol officer.
Construction of the bridge eventually will be put out for a competitive bid, but County staffers believe the work can be done for about $28.4 million.
For more information on Fort Hamer Bridge, call Manatee County Public Works Department at 708-7480 or click on Public Works under the Departments tab online at www.mymanatee.org.

These form-fitting bib knickers feature a polypro lining for wicking and fast drying, a mesh back panel for plenty of breathability, and leg grippers to stop them from rolling up to your knees.

Comments about Splatter Shield:
Purchased for my RV. I can adjust the angle to cover two or three burners
Splatter shield smaller than in the past
By Jan
from Ennis, MT
About Me Avid Cook
This splatter guard is 1/3 smaller in size than the one I bought at Water Drake 30 years ago. I wish the larger size still was available. I have used my old one until it is finally falling apart at the hinges. I love it! This new one has a surface that is easier to clean and will make a great gift for friends, but it won't protect my stove top and back splash tiles as well as the larger sized one does, so I will keep the old!

This is our second order of the splatter shield. Our first one was in perfect condition but this second one was slightly bent in one corner and the nonstick coating had a splotchy spot that got missed with the coating, but it is still useful. I use the first splatter shield for surrounding splattering pans on the stove and I use the second one behind the sink to keep water from splattering on my kitchen window blinds and wall. When done using them, they easily fold up and tuck away til the next use. Rather than putting them in the dishwasher or rinsing in the sink, I use a NON-ammonia glass cleaner to degrease and clean the shields. Water on the shields seems to rust the crevices, so I use as little water as possible on them. [...] Otherwise, it is a great invention.
Too small to be as useful as needed
By Krispy
from Denver CO
Excellent surface for cleaning, but needs to be larger to capture more spatters, perhaps 12x14
Just what I was looking for

I have a black, glass-topped stove (a splatter attracter)...this shield is a big help in keeping the stove-top free of grease.
Great invention
By yiayia
from Maryland
I love this thing...I use it all the time when I cook...it keeps my walls and stove from getting splatters from grease and tomato sauce...No more scrubbing the walls...just clean the one burner that I used and throw this in the dish washer...I use mine on the furthest burner out of the way so I don't have to reach over it because it will fall if it gets bumped.

Protect gas range from the wind
By Dilia
from Carolina, Puerto Rico
I mostly use this splatter to prevent my gas range from the wind, so it doesn't go off. It's easy to clean and to store.
Was afraid to get a shield after reading another website review of how flimsy and rusty the shield gets. However, THIS shield is coated with a nice neutral greyish taupe color instead of a shiny metal finish and is fairly solid for how thin it is. I may order another because I use the shield for both the stove and for the back of the sink to keep sink window and walls free of splashing. Haven't used it in dishwasher yet because am constantly using it. Wipes up so clean with a damp paper towel and a TINY bit of foamy soap.

Splatter Stopper Shines!
By Cynthia the singer
from Sautee-Nacoochee, GA
I have a new cook top and everytime I cook, especially frying, grease goes all over the stove and countertop. When I saw this item, I was hopeful that it would alleviate some of the mess. It does and am thrilled that you made it so easy to clean and store - that's a homerun in my book. Kitchen clean-up usually takes the longest time in cooking, and you have made it a lot easier.

Saves me a lot of time as I do not have to cleanup my stove top as I had to before the guard.
Saves walls!
By Mini
from Chicago, IL
This splatter shield really helps to preserve my walls and surroundings. I'm glad I purchased. Would definitely recommend.
Great Cleanup Saver
By Gadget Queen
from Columbus OH
Excellent for keeping grease splatters contained. Easy set-up, easy cleaning (dishwasher), flat, convenient storage. However, I just bought a glass-top range and the warnings about what to NOT use on that scare the bejeebers out of me. Not sure whether to use the shield or not.
I would buy this product again and again
By Grandma Margie
from Pasco, WA
I have used a spatter shield for about 40 years. I am now replacing it since one of the hinges is showing some wear. I also gave one to my daughter. It helps to contain spatters when frying.
Useful item
By Grandma
from Sterling, Va
A bit of a problem getting to back range controls when using it behind the back burners.
The second one I have bought!!
By Short-cut Lady
from Hot Springs, AR
I owned a splatter shield but it got lost when I moved. When I saw it on-line, I jumped at the chance to get another. It saves a lot of clean up when cooking, or frying. I use it around a sauce pan or a skillet. When it gets soiled I just spread it out in the dishwasher and it comes clean without a lot of scrubbing. I love it.

Brussels/Copenhagen, 9 December - Business lobbyists have been pushing governments to reject tough targets on carbon emissions cuts, according to a new lobbying guide published today by Corporate Europe Observatory [1].
Making money out of climate change is a four-page guide to some of the business lobby groups active in Copenhagen. It highlights how the UN climate negotiations have become a major target for business groups, keen to see their preferred "solutions" - such as nuclear power, a global emissions market and carbon capture and storage - included on the agenda.
But Corporate Europe Observatory says examination of the business agenda shows that it is aimed at blocking effective action on climate change while boosting profits from solutions which are not delivering rapid emission cuts - such as carbon trading, nuclear energy and agrofuels.
Corporate Europe Observatory campaigner Nina Holland said:
"Copenhagen has been a major target for big business lobbyists - and they have been working hard to bend the positions of national governments and the EU in their favour. Big business wants to be seen as part of the solution - but their solutions are designed to protect their profits, not our climate."
The European Chemicals Industry Council (Cefic) - one of the groups featured in the guide - has lobbied the European Union not to increase its emission reduction commitments for 2020 - despite scientific and political pressure for far greater cuts. It also wants free carbon credits under the EU's emissions trading scheme.
Other bodies such as the International Chamber of Commerce, the World Council for Sustainable Development and the Copenhagen Climate Council, represent the views of a cross section of industry, including major polluters Shell, BP, Vattenfall and ExxonMobil.
The lobbyists have been given unprecedented access to the negotiating process, according to Corporate Europe Observatory, with many businesses represented at a special UN business summit on climate change in Copenhagen in May [2].
Nina Holland continued:
"We would urge the governments negotiating in Copenhagen to open their eyes to the business agenda. We need a solution that involves making real carbon cuts in the industrial world now - not offsets and damaging technologies."

As I cross Cesar Chavez Avenue on my way to work each morning, I'm greeted by murals with the visionary labor organizer's portrait. When I reach the PAN office, he smiles down at me from a poster hanging prominently in the hall.
This week marks the 14th annual National Farmworker Awareness celebrations, and I've been contemplating the Chavez legacy. We know that as a parent as well as an activist, he shared our concerns about how pesticides harm children through the food they eat, the water they drink and the air they breathe.
A word that comes up over and over in our work is community. I've been reflecting on various physical and virtual communities here at PAN, and the ways in which our lives and aspirations are woven together around our shared goals.
Looking at PAN's accomplishments over the past year, I'm feeling deeply grateful to each and every person in these communities — including you. Be they a handful of people or hundreds of thousands with common concerns, these overlapping communities provide the inspiration and the muscle we need to transform corporate and government systems.
One of America's most influential environmentalists, Barry Commoner, died last week. Over 40 years ago, he promoted these Four Laws of Ecology:
Everything is connected to everything else. Everything must go somewhere. Nature knows best. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
I saw evidence of all four laws in action at the UN-sponsored Strategic Approach to Integrated Chemicals Management (SAICM) meeting in Nairobi last month.

Night Lady
CD (Item 479852) Philips/Universal (Germany), 1964 — Condition: New Copy
A rare European gem from Johnny Griffin – recorded in quartet formation with backing from the rhythm trio of the Clarke Boland Big Band! Johnny was working with the trio in the bigger group at the time, but he gets plenty of space to state his case here – stretching out on hard-bitten, almost-modern solos that are some of his most adventurous to date on record – supported strongly on the album's longish tracks by Francy Boland on piano, Jimmy Woode on bass, and Kenny Clarke on drums! There's a quality to Griffin's tone that's incredible – urgent, edgey, but never too far out – completely in command of itself, and able to run free, but without wasting at note at all – unlike some of his over-stretched European solos of later years. The set features beautiful long readings of Boland's "Night Lady" and "Old Stuff", plus Griffin's "Scrabble", and versions of "Summertime", "All The Things You Are", and "Little Man You've Had A Busy Day". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

>>> this is fun for us every year. we're back now, 7:47, with the dog crowned best in show last night at the westminster kennel club dog show . we'll meet banana joe in a moment. first, nbc's katy tur has all the backstage action. good morning.
>> good morning, matt. westminster dog show is all about the cute and sometimes quirky. and sometimes these pooches get artificial enhancement and that will get the first line.
>> good boy.
>> reporter: from shiny sheen to diamond duds and talented tricks, the westminster dog show is a show all right, and even more so behind the scenes . there are the slobberers.
>> he's wearing a bib to keep him from getting dirty with all of his slobber.
>> reporter: the lovers. oh, you are so loveable. and even the elizabeth taylors from cleopatra. but what there aren't are cheaters. according to kennel club rules no peds or performance-enhanced dogs, no tattoos for black noses, no braces for straighter teeth and no cosmetic surgery for basset hound 's droopy eyes. so this is that competitive?
>> yep.
>> reporter: in total, there are 2,721 dogs competing this year, but only seven get to compete for the big prize, best in show . but it's not just about the dog.
>> i got to pull?
>> reporter: it's also about the handler. come on, run. come on. i think i'm a natural. jewel, who loves milkshakes, won it for the hounds. bichon frise named honor won the nonsporting group . banana joe , the affenpinscher, for the toy group , swagger, the old english sheep dog , had just enough swagger. matisse. oakley for the sporting.
>> best in show winner --
>> reporter: but again only one is top dog. banana joe . now banana joe is no newbie. he is a veteran. his owner says this was his last show. on the other hand, runner-up, swagger, is nearly brand new, has only been in four shows in his short 1-month life. if i were to hand out the award for the best hug, it would definitely be that big, fluffy white samoyed you saw a moment ago.
>> katy, thank you.
>> congrats, ernesto, to you. banana joe has won several prizes during his career but this one was the big daddy of them all. how did it feel?
>> the best in show really to win in the world. most prestigious show to win and he finally got t it 's wonderful .
>> what's his history, his background? how did he come to be this champion show dog ?
>> well, he was bred in the netherlands from a great pedigree line, started being shown there. and he surprised everybody by winning all the biggest shows out there, broke all the records for his breed for any affenpinscher ever in europe. and his father eimmigrated there.
>> got on a boat. got a ticket.
>> it doesn't roll off people's tongues. tell me about the breed.

Testimony to Senate Finance Committee says DME/HME's anti-fraud measures are pushing fraudsters into other areas.
Efforts to push fraud out of the durable medical equipment sector have been successful, according to testimony made by HHS Inspector General Daniel Levinson to Senate Finance Committee this week.
Echoing Levinson's comments was Wifredo Ferrer, from the U.S. Attorney's office in Southern Florida, who added that criminal activity in Medicare has transitioned "from the DMEs to HIV infusion therapy to home health and now, community mental health," according to a report from the American Association for Homecare.
Levinson labeled DME fraud a "lazy man's fraud," explaining that it was once easier to set up a fake storefront and bill Medicare for items that were never provided. Now that there are more effective policies in place, Levinson said the OIG has seen fraud shift from DME to more sophisticated schemes in areas that involve home health and community mental health clinics.
As patients to receive more care in their homes rather than in more costly institutions such as hospitals, witnesses told the Finance Committee that more anti-fraud focus should be placed on home health and other Part B services.
Case in point was the September's crackdown on an alleged $300 million home health fraud involving providers in eight cities. At the center of the fraud, ABC Home Health Care, had paid indigent people $1,500 a month to file false claims for phony home health services, and paid physicians to document treatments such as insulin injections and physical therapy.
According to Levinson, once people intent on defrauding the system realize that the government has put policies in place to root out fraud in one health care sector, the fraudsters shift their schemes to another. While these schemes vary in different regions, the OIG pointed out that these schemes have moved away from the DME arena.
To combat these new (and existing) areas of fraud, Peter Budetti, director of CMS' Center for Program Integrity, outlined two newly introduced predictive analytics systems that the agency is implementing to identify aberrant billing patterns and use automated screening procedures for enrollments and revalidations. Onetime CMS executive associate to the administrator Kathleen King, now part of the GAO's healthcare team, said prepayment medical review was critical in ensuring that claims are paid correctly the first time in addition to other initiatives.
That said, CMS could have a way to go, according to some of the committee members. A report from Government Executive stated that Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) graded CMS's implementation of new anti-fraud measures as "incomplete" and said "though CMS has made some strides in its fight against fraud, [its grade] is not one to be proud of." Hatch said CMS still had to implement a temporary moratorium on enrolling new Medicare providers and suppliers; had not yet required a surety bond for home health agencies; had not set dollar-amount ceilings on claims; and had not denied billing privileges to providers that were deemed not in good standing.
AAHomecare noted that much of the the success Levinson touted stemmed from the association's 13-point legislative action plan for fighting fraud that it proposed to Congress in 2009.

ANACORTES, Wash. - Helen Elizabeth Klies, 93, of Anacortes, Wash., died Friday, April 21, 2006, at San Juan Rehab and Care Center in Anacortes.
A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m., Wednesday, May 17, at the Anacortes Lutheran Church, with interment at Highland Cemetery in Havre.
Helen was born on February 16, 1913 in Moorehead, Minn., to Norwegian immigrants, Ove and Oline (Borde) Sather. She and her four siblings were raised in Havre.
As a young woman, Helen was employed as a sales clerk in Havre where she met Emil. They were married in Denver, Colo., in 1945 and lived in Sunburst, where he worked with Texaco. They moved to Anacortes in 1958 when Emil was transferred to the Anacortes Texaco Refinery.
Emil and Helen had a commitment to each other rarely seen in our modern world. Although Helen spent the last three years of her life in the San Juan Rehab and Care Center, she and Emil saw each other nearly every day.
Helen was known for her deep and abiding Christian faith and her love of and loyalty to family and friends. She was a dedicated homemaker and a gracious hostess and always made guests feel welcome. In earlier years, she was active in her church and in the ladies' circle and was always one to lend those less fortunate, a helping hand or a kind word.
Helen was preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, Emil, and her brothers, Melvin, Arnold, and Orville Sather.
Survivors include her brother and sisters-in-law, James and Aileen Sather, and LaVon Sather; many nieces and nephews; many great- and great-great-nieces and nephews; and many good friends, neighbors and caregivers.
Arrangements are in the care of Evans Funeral Chapel and Crematory, Inc. in Anacortes, Wash.
To share memories of Helen, sign the online guest register at www.evanschapel.com http://www.evanschapel.com/ .

Happy Birthday, John Cage! An interview with Michelle Schumann
By Leora Zeitlin
Among the many musical innovations made by 20th-century composer John Cage were his experiments with "prepared piano," whereby he put various objects on and between the piano strings to alter the sound. Pianist Michelle Schumann has performed tribute concerts marking Cage's birthday every September since 2000. She came to KRWG's studios to talk with Intermezzo host Leora Zeitlin about how one prepares a piano, her interest in Cage's music, this centennial year of his birth, and her own musical pursuits in Austin, Texas and around the world.

Father of murdered boy seeks justice m By Gary Blair Two and half year old Taylor Thompson died in March of 1994 on the St. Croix Indian resenation. Newspaper accounts ofthe incident say the Burnett County Sheriffs Department in west-central Wisconsin ultimately botched the homicide investigation that resulted in reduced sentences for the victim's mother, Renee Mosay, and her live-in boyfriend, Marcus Robles, who authorities believe slammed the child's head into or hit repeatedly with a blunt object. Chad Thompson, the victim's father and Red Lake resenation enrollee, says his ex-girlfriend's boyfriend killed his son. "It looks like all he's going to get is a 'slap on the hands,' " he told the PRESS on Monday. Thompson, who says he's now fighting for custody of his other two children, keeps newspaper clippings surrounding the incident as well as documents he obtained from Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) workers that were involved with his family before and after his son's death. "I don't want my children.to be raised in foster homes," he said. "I was abused in those places." Thompson explained the situation leading to his son's death: "It all started when I found her in bed with this white guy. He's the one who killed my son and now my ex says she killed him. Neither one of them will get more than five years for what they did. Her boyfriend will be getting out in another year and a half, he plead guilty to two lessor counts and she was just recently sentenced to five years for committing perjury," he stated. Thompson, who says he doesn't drink, said of his ex-girlfriend, "She was the best person and the best mother when she wasn't drinking and when she was, she was just the opposite." "Even with all that's happened, the time that we were together was the best days of my life and those memories still hurt," he continued. According to court and ICWA records from both the St. Croix and Red Lake (reservations, there were "red flags" that warned ofthe imminent danger. "At one point both resenations were in a stand- off as to who had jurisdiction of my children. St. Croix wouldn't exchange information with Red Lake and I couldn't get Red lake to take any action and now they all feel bad about what happened," Thompson remarked. In the three years before the youth's death, abuse and neglect allegations had been aimed at both of the child's parents, as well as her new boyfriend Marcus Robles, but no court action was taken. However, Thompson was later charged at Red lake with child abuse and neglect, but those com- Justice cont'd on pg 3 White Earth Man Finds Obstacles to Business Development By Jeff Armstrong After 29 years as an auto mechanic, White Earth native Dick Nordstrom thought he had finally realized his dreamof owning his own garage when he invested his hard-earned savings into the purchase of a downtown Park Rapids property last June. Nordstrom, owner of Dick's Auto Repair in Park Rapids, had found what he viewed as an ideal location to develop his 13-yearbusiness. The site held two large metal sheds previously used for storage and repair, offered space for parking, and was located in the heart ofthe city' s business district. But what seemed a routine matter of obtaining a city7 permit has evolved into a costly, painstaking ordeal which has jeopardized Nordstrom's investment and the future of the business itself. Because the shop he is currently leasing is being sold, Nordstrom has a maximum of two months to move into his nevv facility, which he says in need of substantial repair. "I'm going to need to put in insulation, wiring, and water and sewer lines, but that's all on hold while I wait for a conditional use permit. Meanwhile, it's costing me extra money to pay for attorney's fees and having to take time out from work," said Nordstrom. "I need financing severely," he said. The Aninishabe man took a major step toward his goal of opening the garage by the middle of next month when he won a recommendation from the city Planning Commission at an of^en emotional July 31 meeting. Although clearly in the minority, opponents of the zoning request aired concernsabout the prospectofjunked- out cars and possible run-off from discarded automotive fluids detracting from a neighborhood dominated by medical and retail establishments. "I don't think that an auto repair place fits into the area. That's my objection to it," said Guy Reich, a dentist located kitty-corner from Nordstrom's garage. "You talk about health—you have oil, transmission fluids, and and now I hear there's Obstacles cont'd on pg 3 Trademark denied for Crazy Horse malt liquor By Matt Kelley SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) _ Federal officials have denied a trademark for Crazy Horse Malt Liquor, the latest blow to a brew criticized by American Indians since its introduction three years ago. Namingthebeverageafterthe Sioux warrior and spiritual leader is insulting, Commerce Department lawyer Kathryn Erskine wrote last month in denying the trademark. "Using the name ofthe great leader on beer is particularly offensive, not just as crass commercialization ofhis persona, but because it undermines his teachings and demeans his reputation as a spiritual leader," Erskine wrote. Crazy Horse Malt Liquor is brewed by the G. Heileman Brewing Co. and distributed by the Hornell Brewing Co. of Nevv York. American Indians have objected to the name since its introduction in 1992, saying it is particularly offensive given Crazy- Horse's opposition to alcohol. A Hornell spokeswoman referred questions to company lawyer Larry7 Fox, who did not return a telephone message at his New York office Tuesday afternoon. Company officials have said they meant no offense to American Indians. Hornell Chairman Don Vultaggio has said the name refers to the Crazy Horse persona created in Hollywood, not the actual historical figure. Erskine rejected those arguments and the company's bid for trademark protection on July 24. "Use oi uie name Crazy norse as a trademark on 'a cheap drunk' is an anathema to many Siouan people because it degrades and dehumanizes an important historical leader to the level of a derisive stereotypical figure 'created in Hollywood,'" Erskine wrote.

Ecker was honored by the 173rd Airborne Brigade on Saturday, June 24, 1995, in Rochester, Minn. Sergeant Ecker received the 173rd Airborne Brigade Sigholtz leadership award. Lieutenant Sigholtz was a trooper of the 173 rd Airborne Brigade who was killed in action during the Viet Nam War. Sergeant Ecker has been with the 82nd Airborne Division in Fort Bragg, North Carolina since 1987. He is the son of Renie Ecker of Minneapolis and Gerald Northrup from the Red Lake Band of Chippevva Indians. Attending the ceremony in Rochester was General William C. Westmoreland and Colonel Robert Sigholtz, Sr, the originator of the award in honor of his son. City of Rochester Mayor Chuck Hazama also attended. Growing up in Minneapolis, Sergeant Ecker had always shown an interest in the military and is preceded in senice by several family members. His Grandfather, John Northrup, also a medic, landed on Omaha Beach in France during the Normandy invasion and was later wounded in the Battle of the Bulge, losing his right arm. Gerald Ecker's uncle, Ronald Abrahamson who was a Ranger, was killed in action in Korea. Another uncle, PFC Maurice Northrup, 101st Airborne Division, was killed in action in Viet Nam. The following is a letter of endorsement from Sergeant Ecker's commanding officer: "1. I can think of no more worthy young, professional airborne leader than Staff Sergeant Gerald C.

PAUL (AP) _ A non-Indian initially must take his property damage claim against an Indian tribe's on-resen'ation convenience store to a tribal court, not to a state court, the Minnesota Court of Appeals has ruled. In a unanimous opinion to be filed Tuesday, a three-judge panel reversed a Redwood County District Court's refusal to dismiss a claim against the Lower Sioux Indian Community's store. The Appeals Court said the state court should have referred the matter to tribal court to examine issues of jurisdiction and sovereign immunity. The doctrine of sovereign immunity generally protects Indian tribes from being sued in nontribal courts without their consent. The lawsuit against the store, which is adjacent to the tribe's Jackpot Junction casino near Morton, was brought by Albion Klammer. Klammer claimed that a ruptured hose at the store sprayed fuel over himself and passengers in his car. When the convenience store did not appear in conciliation court, Klammer won a default judgment of $4,356.57. The Redwood County District Court judge who reviewed the case determined that the tribe had waived its sovereign immunity from uncontested suit by mixing governmental and corporate powers of its charter and constitution. The district court denied the tribe's motion to direct that Klammer first exhaust his remedies in tribal court before seeking relief in state court. The district court held that the exercise of state jurisdiction would not interfere with the community's self- government, nor impinge on its sovereignty. The Appeals Court, rejected those conclusions. It agreed with the convenience store' s assertion that the district court's decision "undermines the role ofthe tribal court, a vital part of the community's governance of reservation affairs." The Appeals Court said that unconditional access to state court would impair the tribal court's authority. "...The policy of supporting tribal self-government and self- determination favors a rule that will provide the tribal court, whose jurisdiction is being challenged, the first opportunity to evaluate the factual and legal bases for that challenge," the court opinion says. "Federal courts apply this rule even when, similar to here, no action is yet pending in tribal court."

Copyright, The Ojibwe Mews, 1995 Lea Ball shows Duffy (left) some raisins at the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary' located in northern Minn. Man has devoted part his life to the preservation of the black bear The ever changing earth has been home to countless animals, many now extinct, as humans continue to settle the wilderness the existence of many more continue to come into question. One man has devoted the later part his life to the presen'ation of one species, the black bear. Vince Shute, known locally as "The Bear Man", has been living a unique, life the past 25 years. After a lifetime of hard work, Vince found himself sharing a patch of northern forest with a population of black bears. During their frequent visits, bears would occasionally break into his log dwelling. Frustrated, but unwilling to shoot them, Vince decided to feed the bears in order to save his home. As Vince so candidly states today, "the bears were only guilty ofbeing hungry, but how could I live with hungry bears?" A special relationship between Vince and the bears ultimately developed, one that has endured a quarter part of a century. In the fall of 1993, at the age of 80, Vince approached three friends who shared a common concern for 'his' beloved bears. He solemnly asked, "What will happen to the bears if something happens to me?" In response to Vince's dreamof ensuring a safe future for the bears, the American Bear Association (ABA) was established in January 1995. This nonprofit corporation is dedicated to protecting the wildlife and land now designated as the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary. The permanent establishment of this sanctuary will preserve a unique opportunity to peer into the intimate world ofthe normally reclusive black bear. The ABA believes the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary can provide unlimited possibilities for scientific studies and educational programs regarding the diverse natural Bears cont'd on pg 5 Government targets Indian casinos in effort to stop money launderin WASHINGTON (AP) _ The government is extending its efforts to fight money laundering to the multibillion-dollar industry of Indian casinos. The Treasury Department said Monday its proposed rules are aimed at preventing criminals from concealing illegal proceeds, not limiting casino activities. "Money launderers and tax evaders continue to look for nevv ways to hide their money," said Stanley Morris, head of Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. "Casinos are cash-intensive and many offer a wide variety of financial services similar to banks." Patrons of Indian-run casinos wager more than $27 billion a year, the department said. Since 1985, the Treasury has required commercial casinos that do at least $ 1 million in annual business to keep records of large cash transactions. The idea is to preserve a financial trail for investigators tracking criminal assets. Congress amended a money laundering law last year to include tribal gaming. "With the tremendous growth of Indian gaming, the time is right for the industry to adopt money laundering controls," Morris said. The new rules are the product of consultations with tribal governments, Congress and the National Indian Gaming Commission, he said. The commission said many of its members already have adopted rules to control laundering. The Treasury said it is seeking comment from tribes and others on its proposed rules. Retail training efforts seeks to reduce teen smoking By Brad Swenson A major statewide retail employee training program launched Wednesday hopes to stem the tide of teenagers illegally buying tobacco products. "We want to make it very clear our members are not in the business of selling tobacco to underage teens," Judy Cook, president ofthe Minnesota Retail Merchants Association, said in a news conference held Wednesday in Bemidji. She was joined by Nancy Christensen, executive director ofthe Minnesota Grocers Association, and Bob Krogman, executive director of the Minnesota Petroleum Marketers Association. The three groups have banded together as the Minnesota Coalition of Responsible Retailers. The coalition plans a major education and training effort to prevent the sale of tobacco products to minors, with the association representing more than 4,000 retailers who operate in all facets ofthe retail industry from giant supermarkets to convenience stores and gasoline service stations. "Retailers are making diligent efforts to prevent the sale of tobacco to minors," Christensen said, adding that the coalition supported legislation in the 1995 session to license tobacco retailers and mandate training. "Properly trained, those clerks are the first line of defense." Tom B riant, executive director of the new coalition, said the bill is still pending but "we could not get the support ofthe anti-tobacco lobby for this legislation despite important provisions such as statewide licensing Teen cont'd on pg 3

Submitted by admin on 6 April, 2008 - 17:07These templates are versions of the popular rhuk Solarflare II template that was initially developed for the Mambo CMS and subsequently modified for use with the Joomla! CMS 1.0.x releases. A number of the Mambo and Joomla! based sites out there today still use this template or a variation thereof.
The templates have been tested in the following environments:
- IE7, IE8 and Firefox 2.x.x, 3.x.x on Windows XP Pro, Windows Vista Ultimate-64, and Windows 7 Ultimate-64
- Firefox 2.x.x, 3.x.x and Chrome 6.0.427.0 dev on Ubuntu Linux 9.10.
A demo of the templates is available here.
The following templates are for use with Joomla! 1.5.x running in native mode. They will not work on Joomla! 1.0.x or Mambo sites.
