U-14 BNT Pool Playing up During Development Academy Season
At the youth level, it normally takes a special set of skills to be able to compete against older players. Negotiating the physicality, faster game speed and quicker thinking required to "play up" isn't something easily attainable for most 14- or 15-year-old athletes.
For the first time, members of the U.S. U-14 Boys' National Team player pool are becoming full-time Development Academy members and, in a couple cases, are playing within the U-15/16 age group as 14-year-olds during the 2011-12 Development Academy season.
"Here in America, sometimes people worry about the physical aspect – that young players might not be able to compete with older kids," said U.S. U-14 BNT
head coach and National Team technical advisor Hugo Perez, a former U.S. National Team member and veteran of the 1994 World Cup squad. "I look at it in a
different way. If they are talented enough, it will take them a couple months to adjust to the physical part because they have the technical part."
Perez outlined how the integration of the entire structure of U.S. Soccer – from the Development Academy and U-14 BNT up through the Senior National Team – creates an ideal environment for players possessing the requisite technical skills to compete with older age groups to attain increased exposure to National Team staff and accelerated technical and mental development. This concept of players continually being challenged to move to a higher level has been at the forefront of the platform presented by U.S. Men's National Team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann.
"They get challenged more," Perez said. "When they're playing against their own age, they're the best and it becomes so easy that they're not learning. When they play up it is better competition for them and their development mentally becomes much better because at older ages they are quicker so that means they have to think faster to be able to adjust to it."
"If a 14-year-old is playing up and they can adjust, then the Development Academy benefits because now they don't have to wait a year or two for them to develop into that level and you get more out of the player," Perez said. "That's why we feel it's positive. The Development Academy coaches need to identify that the players are talented enough to be playing up. Then they need to be patient with them because they're going to make mistakes. Once they get it, it's going to benefit the whole program for the future."
This year, U-14 BNT members George Braima (Crew Soccer Academy) and Joshua Perez (Chivas USA) joined the U-15/16 level as full-time players for their respective Academy teams.
Both Braima and Perez made 18 appearances during the 2011-12 Development Academy season as the youngest players on their teams and traveled to the Development Academy Playoffs this week at the FC Dallas Stadium Complex in Frisco, Texas. Chivas USA and Crew Soccer Academy participated in the event as part of the Showcase portion as neither team qualified for the Playoffs during the regular season.
"As soon as we feel a player is ready, for us it's a priority to get them up into a more competitive environment because the highest level is what we hope they achieve – the Youth National Team and eventually the senior National Team," said Billy Thompson, head coach of Crew Soccer Academy's U-15/16 team. "To replicate what that is like physically, speed of play and competitively, we can accomplish that by playing those guys up."
Having the positive support of coaches, advisors and staff will help players transition and adapt to training and playing at a more competitive level where they're expected to listen, learn and grow as people and players.
"There's always a learning curve where players make progress and at some point when they're challenged a little more their level drops, but they push through and figure some things out on the field and progress back to the same level and start to adapt more," Thompson said. "That's where they make their most progress."

Welcome to the Asia Stocks live blog, a running account of what the region's share markets are doing, along with other news. Today, while the region\'s equities struggle against a downbeat cue from the U.S. session, Japan seeks to extend its winning streak in the face of downbeat retail sales data.

- Japan retail: Let the buyer be home
- by Mike Kitchen
- Add a Comment
Japan's April retail sales numbers are out, and the results show a drop just a little worse than economists' already low expectations.
Overall, retail sales fell 4.4% from a year earlier, underperforming a forecast 3.3% decrease from a Reuters survey, while the large-scale retailers saw their sales retreat by 6.8% (on a same-store basis), according to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
Of course, this is the first data since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's government implemented the first increase of a likely two-step hike to the nation's sales tax.
A month ahead of the hike, shoppers had rushed to beat the deadline, sending March sales jumping 11%, with sales at the large retailers soaring more than 16%. (See the details in the post "Japan retail: Live and let buy" on this previous Asia Stocks blog.)
In terms of market reaction, the yen weakened just a little after the data release, with the U.S. dollar rising to ¥101.75 compared to ¥101.72 a minute ahead of the announcement.
While the stock market wasn't open when the statistics came out, Singapore-traded Nikkei Average futures held to a 0.6% loss, with the weak nature of the April sales report largely priced in.
Anxiety over the sales-tax hike had led an increasing number of investors to short Japanese retail shares in the lead-up to April, given the ugly economic experience following the only other time Japan raised the tax, back in April 1997.
But a recent Wall Street Journal report said that while retailers' shares on loan — an indication of short-selling — have risen sharply recently, many names have seen short interest come off their highs, as some investors dip their toes back in.

- Japan stocks: Yen, data weigh
- by Mike Kitchen
- Add a Comment
After five wins in a row — the market's longest streak since last December — Japan's Nikkei Average is down 0.4% in early moves, though off its opening low. The Topix is faring a bit better, down 0.1%
The major contributors to the softer start are U.S. losses overnight (Dow and Nasdaq down 0.3% each), a stronger yen (dollar at ¥101.74 vs. ¥101.97 a day ago), and weaker-than-expected Japanese retail sales (April results down 4.4% vs. a Reuters forecast for a 3.3% drop).
As can be expected from the more expensive currency, the blue-chip exporters are mostly lower, with Sony and Olympus each down 0.9%, Fanuc down 1.1%, and Renesas down 1.2%, with investors likely cashing in on recent gains for those shares.
And as can be expected from the weak sales data, retailers are retreating, with Fast Retailing down 1%, Aeon down 0.5%, but Takashimaya and J. Front down a more modest 0.3% each.
On the other hand, autos are mostly higher, with Toyota up 0.7%, Nissan up 1.1%, and Fuji Heavy up 1% (though Honda is off 0.1%).
And some of the Apple Inc. suppliers seem be getting a bump in the wake of news of the U.S. firm's purchase of Beats. Specifically, Sharp and Murata Manufacturing are up 0.4% each, while Nidec is up 2% after hiking its dividend earlier this week.
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is also on the rise, up 0.7% after its president said in a Nikkei news interview that the firm is looking for possible acquisitions to better compete globally.

- Australia stocks: Miners dig deeper
- by Mike Kitchen
- Add a Comment
It's really a mining story this morning on the Australian exchange, as many of the big names pull back following losses for iron ore and gold, sending the ASX 200 down 0.2%.
BHP Billiton is down 1.6%, Rio Tinto is down 2%, Fortescue Metals is down 2.4%, Oz Minerals is down 1.4%, and Atlas Iron is down 2.7%. This, as the Chinese spot iron-ore price falls to $96.80 (per Reuters).
On the other hand, iron ore's loss is Bluescope's gain, seeing as the steel mill is only 55% hedged on the iron price (according to Rivkin). And so, the shares are up 1.3%.
Meanwhile, Toll Holdings has announced about 100 layoffs as part of its restructuring plan. And since the market usually loves job cuts, shares of the transport and logistics firm are up 3.6%.
Shares of global shopping-mall operator Westfield remain on a trading halt as the market awaits the outcome of a shareholder vote to split the company's Australian business from its international business. A Wall Street Journal report quoted Westfield Chairman Frank Lowy as saying the vote was too close to call.

- Auto rally pushes up Hong Kong stocks

Hong Kong stocks appear unaffected by the weaker U.S. stocks overnight, as the Hang Seng Index edges higher by 0.3%, with Chinese auto makers rallying on favorable government policies.
Over on the mainland, the Shanghai Composite is inching up 0.1%.
China's State Council announced earlier this week that the government is planning to pull 6 million high-polluting cars and other old vehicles from the roads by the end of this year. Auto makers are trading higher as a result, with Great Wall Motor jumping 3.6%, Guangzhou Automobile Group climbing 2.7%, Brilliance China Automotive Holdings rising 2.3%, and Dongfeng Motor Group up 2.1%. Likewise, electric-car and battery maker BYD Co. is up 1.4%.
Insurers are also outperformers after J.P. Morgan gave an overweight rating to several stocks, including those of Ping An Insurance, China Pacific Insurance, and PICC Property & Casualty Co.. The investment bank said the stocks were undervalued, while the companies' fundamentals have been improving.
Right now, China Pacific Insurance is advancing 2.6%, Ping An Insurance is rising 1.5%, and PICC Property & Casualty is up 1.4%.
Other stocks in the sector are also attracting investors' attention, with China Life Insurance up 1.9%, China Taiping Insurance Holdings up 1.8%, and People's Insurance Company up 0.3%.

- Time for China to loosen up?
- by Laura He
- Add a Comment
Against the backdrop of a slowing Chinese economy, the country's central bank continues to boost liquidity in the financial system, pumping in another 10 billion yuan ($1.6 billion) via bond purchases on Wednesday.
Last week, the People's Bank of China injected 120 billion yuan into the open market, marking the highest level in four months.
"The central bank has been facing increasing pressure to ease further," Jian Chang, China economist for Barclays, said in a note on Thursday.
Reasons behind the move include concerns that downside risks to growth are rising, given the ongoing property-market correction, tightening credit conditions and rapidly rising financing costs since the second half of last year.
Actually, the rising costs for financing are partly due to the regulators' efforts to rein in the country's vast shadow-banking system, Barclays analysts said in another note Thursday.
Chinese commercial Banks reduced some shadow-banking activities in the second half of 2013 amid more "disc
iplin ed" liquidity injections by the PBOC, higher rate volatility, regulators' "window" guidance, a tightening of interbank activities, and concerns over rising credit risks, May Yan and other analysts from Barclays said.
More evidence of increasing pressures facing the PBOC has come in the form of Premier Li Keqiang sending out a clear message that authorities need to help shore up confidence and prevent a downward spiral after weake
r-than-expec ted April economic data, Chang said.
Premier Li's "strongest signal was sent on May 22, when he called for further fine-tuning of monetary policy to support the real economy, noting corporates, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, are facing tightening financing conditions and high borrowing costs," she said.

- Japan retail: When will it recover?
- by Mike Kitchen
- Add a Comment
While today's Japanese retail sales data were kind of a disappointment, Capital Economics for one sees a rebound around the corner.
The 4.4% drop on an annual basis (or a 13.7% plunge on a monthly basis!) was certainly below expectations, and CapEcon's Japan economist Marcel Thieliant says that even if sales are flat for the next two months, private consumption would still show a drop of about 4% this quarter.
But longer-term, Thieliant is more upbeat: "There are a number of reasons why the weakness in household spending should remain short-lived." Among them, he cites a stable yen, low inflation and signs of wage growth.
What's more, Thieliant sees some of the pessimism as coming from memories of the economic hit the only other time Japan hiked the consumption tax, back in 1997.
"The experience from 1997 is also more reassuring than many believe: Private
consumption did pick up in the third quarter of that year. It was the Asian Financial
Crisis at the end of the year, rather than the tax hike itself, that derailed the recovery," he writes.
"Overall, therefore, we remain confident that the recovery in household spending will
resume in the second half of the year," the CapEcon economist said.

More than two years after the crime, a Durango man pleaded guilty Thursday in District Court to killing his brother-in-law, Ted Garcia, who managed Franciscos Restaurante y Cantina on Main Avenue.
Joseph Dernoga, 38, will be sentenced to 16 years in prison if District Judge Jeffrey Wilson accepts the plea agreement Dernoga signed with the 6th Judicial District Attorneys Office.
It will be added to the five-year prison term he currently is serving for an unrelated weapons violation.
Dernoga appeared Thursday in court with a shaved head, wearing shackles and an orange jail-issued jumpsuit. He answered routine questions clearly and affirmatively with no hesitation.
Dernoga shot and killed Garcia with a .270-caliber rifle, according to the plea agreement. He agreed to explain the circumstances of the killing during his sentencing hearing at 1:30 p.m. Oct. 17 in District Court.
The shooting occurred July 23 or 24, 2010, inside Garcias home in the 1000 block of County Road 206, just west of downtown Durango.
Garcia, 47, was shot once in the upper torso. A high-powered rifle was found in the kitchen and dining area near his body.
Dernoga, who lived in the basement, called 911 to report the death. Investigators initially were unsure if Garcia committed suicide or was killed by someone else.
A forensic pathologist said the rifle was fired from a distance greater than Garcia could have if he shot himself, ruling out suicide.
Investigators eventually identified Dernoga as a suspect.
Prosecutors presented the case to a La Plata County grand jury, which issued a 10-count indictment, including first-degree murder, tampering with evidence and being a felon in possession of a weapon.
Thursdays plea hearing was attended by several investigators with the La Plata County Sheriffs Office and Garcias brother and father, Skip and Francis Garcia, respectively.
In an interview after the hearing, Skip Garcia said his family never had any doubt that Dernoga killed Ted Garcia. The guilty plea helps the family turn a corner, he said, but the 16-year prison sentence pales in comparison to ending someones life.
We dont get any sense of remorse coming from him whatsoever, Skip Garcia said.
Hopefully, he will shed some light during sentencing on why he killed him, Skip Garcia said. There could be no justifiable reason, but for the sake of our family I dont know if that will help bring us any further resolve, but it may be what we need to hear.
Criminal defendants in Colorado typically serve about 75 percent of their prison terms before becoming eligible for early release.
Skip Garcia thanked prosecutors and the Sheriffs Office for their handling of the case.
Missing at Thursdays plea hearing was Suzanne Garcia, Dernogas sister and the wife of Ted Garcia. Suzanne Garcia regularly attends her brothers court hearings.
In a phone interview Thursday, Suzanne Garcia seemed unaware her brother had changed his plea.
Is this some kind of joke? she said, crying. I didnt even know there was court. Im very shocked. Im having a hard time believing this.
She has proclaimed her brothers innocence for the last two years. In an email sent Thursday to the Herald, she questioned her brothers plea.
I guess they just wore him down and he couldnt stand watching the rest of us be tortured, she wrote. Maybe this was the only way that he could find to make the madness stop.
Suzanne Garcia is charged with eight counts of perjury on suspicion of lying to the grand jury that investigated Dernoga. She also is charged with tampering with a witness, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, violation of bail conditions and violation of a protection order.
She is set for a five-day trial to begin Sept. 24.

### BEGIN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST ## lines between the AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST markers will be modified ## by the debian update-grub script except for the default options below ##DO NOT UNCOMMENT THEM, Just edit them to your needs ## ## Start Default Options ## <snip> ## controls how many kernels should be put into the menu.lst ## only counts the first occurence of a kernel, not the ## alternative kernel options ## e.g. howmany=all ## howmany=7 # howmany=all <snip> ## ## End Default Options ##

This Guy Breaks a Fan Rule, but There's a Good Reason For It
Last summer on Overtime, Jeff Thurn and I gave our fan rules that all fans should abide by. Included in that list, and Jeff's most important rule, is laying it on someone when put on the Kiss Cam.
A lot of us have been there before with that dreaded Kiss Cam. Yes, it can be quite the awkward situation. We've seen it before where people strategically place themselves to where they won't run into that.
But what happens if you go to the event with your sister? What happens if it's just you two and the sports venue decides to awkwardly put the two of you on there.
One man had the Minnesota Gophers figured out, and made the most of the situation. While he might have broke Jeff's most important fan rule, I would have to say that this was a good reason to do so.

PHILADELPHIA, PA - At first glance, independent wrestler Homicide's appearance says one thing - street. But make no mistake, the garb and tattoos are not a gimmick, but a declaration of survival and perseverance.
"I'm an ex-gang member. I made mistakes in my life," Homicide told SLAM! Wrestling in a rare interview. "I bring my childhood to the ring, I show my character in the ring. This is what happened in my childhood, I used to be gangbanger. This is me, I'm from Brooklyn, New York."
With that kind of background, it seems only appropriate he settled on the ring name 'Homicide', at the prompting of a friend while watching the television show America's Most Wanted. But when you sit back and speak with Homicide, what one truly understands about the Notorious 187 of professional wrestling is that he is an athlete that found his calling and went after it with passion.
Like many of his wrestling peers, the Brooklyn native got hooked on wrestling from the television set. "I've been watching wrestling since I was about five years old," he recalled. "When I turned 15, I knew I gotta do this. This is my goal, this is my life."
Unlike many active wrestlers who will account their influences with names like Flair, Hogan, Savage, Steamboat and others, Homicide will exclaim names that are foreign to most fans in North America; Names like Giant Baba, Antonio Inoki and Mitsuhara Misawa - a fraternity of wrestling legends from the shores of Japan.
"I started watching Japanese wrestling since about 1988," recalled Homicide. "I just got hooked up into it. I just love the style; it's very different from the States, Germany, England and even Canada. It's a great work of art."
Setting forth on his pledge to become a professional grappler, Homicide was well ahead in achieving his goal, possessing an active sporting background.
"I played football and did some amateur wrestling, freestyle and Greco-Roman," said Homicide, noting his athletic achievements would be the pedestal for his ascent into the pro wrestling world. "You definitely got to be in good shape. Not only great shape, but you got to have a great mind when you come to the ring. You could wrestle for 20 minutes, half an hour, maybe for two hours. You definitely got to be in shape if you want to become a professional wrestler."
Having the mental toughness for the wrestling game was entrenched in his life early. "I lived in a rough neighborhood. I think I was the only person in my neighborhood out of 200 people that loved wrestling," said Homicide.
His unwavering desire to attain his goal of becoming a professional wrestler was reached on March 5, 1993 when he made his in-ring debut. But the early years of his career were not typical.
"I never had the proper training, I just trained myself," he said, noting that at the beginning, he was not getting work in independent promotions, as is the norm with the vast majority of rookies. "When I started, it was like in this little convenience store," Homicide recalled of his rather unique wrestling environment. "It was so crappy, so dirty, so low down. I did this for two years."
But fortune would shine on Homicide when he attended a wrestling clinic in New Jersey, run by none other than the Raging Bull himself, Manny Fernandez. "I met Manny Fernandez and he showed me every step, psychology, how to tell a story," Homicide said, adding his praise and admiration for Fernandez and his old school style of wrestling.
In fact, it was during his brief tutelage under Fernandez that Homicide discovered his desire to tell stories through wrestling, an act that would defy the coming evolution of professional wrestling into dialogue driven, sports entertainment.
"I love to tell a story in my matches. It's like making a movie, that's how I like to deliver my matches," explained Homicide. "I just want to wrestle. I hate doing promos, I think I suck at promos. Like Dean Malenko; no talk, just wrestle."
As the late '90s arrived, wrestling exploded in popularity and with it, an unprecedented time period where wrestlers could seek out high paying employment opportunities with three major promotions, the WWF(E), Ted Turner's WCW, and east coast upstart, ECW.
For Homicide though, his anonymous sojourn continued, paying his dues and absorbing as much wrestling doctrine as he could with various indy promotions. Where others would have walked away from the life of bumps, low pay and long road trips, Homicide carried on, reaching inside to find that fighting spirit to stay focused.
"I got heart. I just wanted to make it. I feel I need to accomplish something," he said.
It would be almost 10 years after he first started that fans would begin to take notice.
In 2002, the Ring of Honor promotion came into existence, striving to establish a serious, athletically-based wrestling product. Among the early pioneers of the group would be none other than Homicide himself.
"I gotta thank Ring of Honor. That company gave me a chance," said Homicide, telling of how bookers from the promotion were able to see through the street gangster wrestling attire. "A lot of people say that I'm a wannabe New Jack because I look like the man. But when they see the way I've wrestled, they say, 'Okay, two different people, but the same character.'
What fans do in fact see is a steel-eyed wrestler who brings his Japanese wrestling influence to the ring, delivering an exciting strong-style offense, topped off by his finisher, appropriately entitled "Cop Killer," his version of the Kudo Driver.
That drive to execute awe-inspiring matches would manifest itself into his break-out year in 2003, with matches against the likes of Christopher Daniels, CM Punk, Samoa Joe, BJ Whitmer, Trent Acid, Satoshi Kojima and others, in addition to a stand-out feud against Steve Corino, which culminated into a bloody barbed wire match finale, with Homicide coming out victorious.
There have been other accomplishments that Homicide can proudly boast about too.
Recent years have seen Homicide tour Japan with Big Japan Wrestling and more recently with Shinya Hashimoto's Zero-One. For the kid who idolized Japanese pro wrestling, it has become a dream fulfilled. "It was awesome. It was always my goal to go over there."
For a while, he also ran his own wrestling school, mentoring a variety of students, including indy great Low Ki. To Homicide, it seems that at times his student may have surpassed the teacher when it comes to their chosen craft. "Sometimes I need pointers myself and I'll go to him and say, 'Hey Low Ki, what's wrong with this?' We just help each other," Homicide said, confessing that his tenure as an instructor had its own special rewards. "I think it was a blessing. I just loved watching the guys learn and hope they'll achieve what they want, just like I did."
But don't think for a second that Homicide is done with reaching new plateaus of success and cementing his rightful place in professional wrestling history. "The next step up for me is going to Canada, Mexico, I just want to travel all over the world and achieve my goals. I don't want to be a world champion, I don't want to be the Kind of the Ring. I just want to be remembered."

Renovations Begin on the Historic Cullen Building
March 11, 2011
March 11, 2011
Construction workers will be a common sight around Southwestern's historic Roy and Lillie Cullen Building in the next two years as the building undergoes its first major renovation since the late 1970s.
The renovation will include repair or replacement of all 467 of the building's windows. It also will include an upgrade to the building's mechanical and electrical systems. New restrooms will be built on the second and third floors and the elevator will be improved and enlarged to accommodate persons in wheelchairs. The new elevator will go all the way to the attic, where most of the new HVAC systems will be housed.
As part of the renovation, the second and third floors of the building will be reconfigured. The second floor will be reconfigured to hold the entire Office of Institutional Advancement, which was previously located on parts of the second and third floors. Most of the third floor will be reconfigured to serve totally as classroom space. Seven classrooms and one conference room will be built, along with a lounge area that will serve as a "learning commons." The Office of Strategic Planning and Assessment also will move back to the third floor.
During the renovation, contractors will bring back the building's original wood floors where possible and expose features such as transom windows that were covered in previous renovations.
The three-story, limestone building was built between 1898 and 1900 and was originally known as the "Admin Building." The building was constructed in the architectural style known as Richardsonian Romanesque and is considered one of the most distinctive academic structures of this style in the nation. Robert Hyer, the fourth president of Southwestern, conceived of the building after seeing a similar academic building at Harvard University in 1891. The building's walls are hand-laid stone, and are 18 inches thick. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
The first renovation of the building occurred in 1976-1977 and was funded by the Cullen Foundation of Houston. At the rededication ceremony on Oct. 14, 1977, the building was renamed the Roy and Lillie Cullen Building in recognition of the couple's longtime philanthropy.
In 2002, Southwestern received a $1 million gift from the Cullen Trust for Higher Education, part of which was used to create an alumni center on the second floor.
All offices on the third floor of the building were vacated in the summer of 2010 in preparation for the latest renovations. Classes were moved out of the building beginning in the Spring 2011 semester.
The renovation began in January 2011 with the installation of a sample replacement window. Because the building is a recorded Texas landmark, the replacement window needed to be approved by the Texas Historical Commission before the remainder of the windows could be ordered. That approval came in March. The replacement windows will be double-paned and insulated to make them more energy efficient. The six-foot tall windows located in the stairwells will be refurbished instead of replaced.
Bob Mathis, associate vice president for facilities and campus services, said most of 2011 will be devoted to the window replacement. Interior renovations should start in the summer of 2011. Offices that moved out of the Cullen Building in summer 2010 are expected to move back in by fall 2012.
Longtime Southwestern architects Group Two Architecture of Austin planned the renovation and Skyline Commercial Inc. of Austin received the contract for the window replacement.
Southwestern received a $6 million gift from the Cullen Trust for Higher Education in 2007 to help fund the renovations. A portion of that gift was used to build the Wilhelmina Cullen Admission Center, which opened in 2009.
Mathis said the renovation of the second and third floors and the window replacement is expected to cost about $5 million. The university is still seeking funds to restore the first floor. Long-term plans call for creation of a "heritage gallery" for the 1first floor that will be dedicated to Southwestern's history as the oldest university in Texas. The first floor of the building will continue to house the President's Office, the Provost's Office, the Business Office and Human Resources.
"Of all the buildings at Southwestern, the Cullen Building most embodies our rich heritage," said President Jake B. Schrum. "We hope this renovation will allow the Cullen Building to bask in its rightful stance, offering beauty, function and inspiration for generations to come."

Family Member
Activity Badge
The Webelos Family Member Activity Badge is one of 20 different Activity Badges that can be earned in the Webelos Scout Program. The requirements are typically worked on during den meetings or den activities while the skills are practiced at home, with the help of the Webelos Scout's family. The requirements are either completed with the den or at home with the den leader's approval. Projects are brought to meetings to share with the den and for Webelos Den Leader or Activity Badge Counselor approval.
Do all of these:
- 1. Tell what is meant by family, duty to family, and family meetings.
- 2. Make a chart showing the jobs you and other family members have at home. Talk with your family about other jobs you can do for the next two months.

- 4. Plan your own budget for 30 days. Keep track of your daily expenses for seven days.
- 5. Take part in at least four family meetings and help make decisions. The meetings might involve plans for family activities, or they might be about serious topics that your parent wants you to know about.
- 6. With the help of an adult inspect your home and surroundings. Make a list of hazards or lack of security that you find. Correct one problem that you found and tell what you did.
And do two of these:
- 7. With the help of an adult, prepare a family energy-saving plan. Explain what you did to carry it out.
- 8. Tell what your family does for fun. Make a list of fun things your family might do for little or no cost. Plan a family fun night.
- 9. Learn how to clean your home properly. With adult supervision, help do it for one month.
- 10. Show that you know how to take care of your clothes. With adult supervision, help at least twice with the family laundry.
- 11. With adult supervision, help plan the meals for your family for one week. Help buy the food and help prepare three meals for your family.
- 12. While you are a Webelos Scout, earn the Academics belt loop for Heritages.
- 13. Explain why garbage and trash must be disposed of properly.

One of the moments in my research that elicited pride (there have been many) was the time that I "found" my 2nd Great Grand uncle, Booker Sampson Brown, and his connection to the Civil War. I was recently re-watching the African American Lives 2 series and watched a similar discovery for Don Cheadle and his family. You can see it for yourself here. Here's Chris Rock having the same joy:
I think a lot of the pride comes from knowing that your ancestors weren't just victims…. weren't just dragged along by this holocaust, but actually had the opportunity to put on a uniform, bare arms and fight for the freedom recently granted through war. It's not nearly enough to erase the scars, but it gives me something to talk to my kids about when the questions inevitably come. Something personal. something beyond Roots, Dr. King and the differences between now and then.
When I visited the African American Civil War Memorial for the first time a few years ago, it struck me that this was a story not often told. No one ever told me until I went to find it myself. Over the holidays, I was able to visit again, this time with my Grandmother in tow. She is Booker's Great-Grand niece. She'd never heard the story I've been able to piece together either (beyond hearing her Grandfather Hillary speak fondly of his older brother). Amazing how this stuff teaches the young and the old.

More than 1,000 students, alumni and members of the community said good-bye to the "old" Springfield High school Nov. 16.
More than 1,000 students, alumni and members of the community said good-bye to the "old" Springfield High school Nov. 16.
Thousands of photos were scattered across the cafeteria tables, conjuring memories from those who sifted through them.
Springfield teachers Larry and Paula Murphy were sorting through the thousands of pictures laid out on cafeteria tables looking for friends.
Paula, a 1987 grad, was a part of the softball team.
"We were talking about how there used to be a swimming pool here," Paula said. As she looked at photographs, she remembered her friends and the memories they made in school and playing softball. "It is fun to come back and see how many of us grads are still here teaching."
Larry teaches at the high school and Paula teaches at Young Elementary.
Springfield trustee Dean Young, a 1970 grad, thought about how his political career started right there in the Springfield cafeteria. As he sorted through the pictures, he remembered sitting in that cafeteria during student council meetings.
While some looked through photographs, others walked the hallways they had once ruled as high school seniors and took in the sights from seats in their old classrooms.
Bill Luplow, a 1962 graduate said his fondest memories were of his government teacher Louise Nolt.
"She was fantastic," Luplow said. "It was the only class in high school where I had straight As. She was a good teacher, she made it interesting."
Nolt, 91, taught at Springfield from 1948 to 1986. Today, she lives in Indiana.
While she couldn't make it to the open house, she admits that Springfield High School holds a very special place in her heart
"Springfield children, young people, and young adults were very fine human beings, who studied in detail, achieving 98th percentile in our nation, thereby winning scholarships to America's distinguished universities," Nolt wrote in an email. "With technical school training, liberal arts and university our young people made major contributions to their professions and serious humanitarian service projects. With education in this, our new high school, Springfield young people will continue to enrich the lives of their families, their communities and our world."
Occasionally, someone would recognize an old friend in the crowd of people walking the halls. They'd shout out a name and take off running into the arms of the friend they hadn't seen in years.
"It is like a big family reunion," Superintendent William Stauffer said of the open house. He was pleased to see that alumni of all ages made it a point to attend the open house.
Glenn Wieland, a 1985 graduate was surprised as to how many generations came to bid farewell.
"Not only are there people I went to school with, but also those that went to school with my parents," Wieland said. "Families have been here for generations."
Wieland's grandfather, Irvine Wieland, was one of the first graduates in 1932 of the Central Building.
"I never knew him, he passed away when I was a year old, but the family always talked about him," Wieland said.
Mary Lou Dodson belongs to another one of those families that have attended Springfield for generations. Dodson, a 1963 graduate, just attended her 50-year reunion, while her mother would have been out of school 75 years this year. Dodson's youngest child has been out 25 years and her granddaughter just started kindergarten at Springfield.
Even with her generations of history at the school, as a board member, it was not a hard decision for her to build a new school and tear down the old.
"When you walk around here it does not take too long to figure out that it is time," Dodson said. "I am really proud of the new building. I have gotten so many compliments on it."
Donna Sedmock, a 1963 graduate, reminisced about when she and Dodson were asked to leave the library.
"We were looking at National Geographics and we got kicked out and sent to the principal's office because we were laughing at the pictures of the aborigines," Sedmock said.
"It was quite a shock to me, actually," Dodson added. "I never got in trouble. What can I say, it was funny."
Jill Cramer laughed and remembered the best one-liner she had during her high school career.
"My first day of 10th-grade – I have cerebral palsy – I was walking with my tray and I tripped and fell," Jill, a 1986 graduate said. "I got up and all these seniors were applauding and I said 'no applause just throw money.' I loved it."
For Dick Cramer, a 1962 graduate, said his fondest memories of Springfield were made on the basketball court.
"We went on to win the YMCA championship," Dick said of his 1958 eighth-grade basketball team. During that season, the team won 25-straight games and the football team put together a fantastic season as well.
Jerry Williams, though, couldn't help but brag about the athletic programs' success during his senior year in 1953.
"We were and still are the only year that went undefeated in every sport," Williams said. "(We were) undefeated in basketball, football, track and baseball."
While many had memories of the building, the building itself offered some memories as well.
A ceremony was held to open a time capsule which was embedded in the cornerstone of the Springfield High School Central Building in 1931.
In the time capsule was what is believed to be a year book from 1931 that had disintegrated. It had fallen apart, but the cover did have the words Red and Gray and matched a similar book from 1936. Also in the capsule was an Akron Times Press newspaper dated May 16, 1931 and an Akron Beacon Journal dated May 14, 1931. There were three faded ribbons believed to have been red, white and blue and from a patriotic organization.
Saying good-bye to the old Springfield High School won't be easy, but junior Joe Mcabee is excited for the memories the new school will house.
"If you take a look at this building there are chips out of the paint and everything," Mcabee said. "It is going to be very exciting to go to a new school."

Barcelona and Messi try to overturn 4-0 deficit against Bayern Munich
MADRID – Lionel Messi and Barcelona hope to become the first team to advance in the Champions League after losing the first leg of a knockout matchup by four goals.
Bayern Munich routed Barcelona 4-0 last week in Germany, and the teams meet Wednesday night in Spain at Camp Nou for the second leg of their total-goals semifinal.
"We need to go for a comeback," Messi said.
The winner plays Borussia Dortmund or Real Madrid in the final at London's Wembley Stadium on May 25. Dortmund beat Madrid 4-1 in the first leg.
Nursing a hamstring injury, Messi failed to make an impact last week.
"People are talking a lot about a German final at Wembley, but first there is Barcelona," Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes said. "We have to play with the same passion, the same concentration and the same tactical plan."
Bayern has won 17 straight away matches in all competitions. Barcelona has lost once in 26 home games this season and overturning a 2-0 deficit from the first leg against AC Milan in the second round.
Barcelona will likely be without injured defenders Javier Mascherano and Carles Puyol, and left back Jordi Alba is suspended because of yellow card accumulation. Defender Eric Abidal and midfielder Sergio Busquets will miss the match because of injuries.
The last time Bayern played at the Camp Nou, Barcelona won 4-0 in the first leg of the 2009 quarterfinals.

Tim Burton Portrait
This piece came about as a prize for a raffle on Free Comic Book Day. The prize was a sketch of some kind. But, the winner planted the seed of this portrait in my head. The idea took root and grew--eventually taking on a life of it's own.
Settling on the composition early, I wanted to impart a sense of Burton's wild creativity and imagination. I decided to use his wild hair as a proxy for his wild imagination. A jumbled collection of characters from his movies surrounds him. Escaped from his imagination. Perhaps they comfort, or tease him while they remind us of his work.
The characters were done in a sketchy manner, as a nod to Burton's art style (which I quite enjoy). Initially, I was going to paint them up more and have them interacting with him. However, I decided to treat them more graphically--but not as graphically as I approached the hair.
I do feel that the piece is lacking something, and did not reach the heights I aspired too. I can't remember the last time I tackled a portrait in this fashion. Despite my lack of total satisfaction, I do have an appetite for more. I've got another portrait idea percolating--perhaps it's time to get it out on paper.
As usual, I used a combination of traditional and digital media on this illustration.
It is © Chris Chuckry.
Questions? Send me a note. I'll be happy to answer.
Thanks for stopping by.

CHAPEL HILL – Reverend William Barber, President of the North Carolina NAACP, is the loud and passionate voice behind the Moral Monday protests in Raleigh. Thousands gather in Raleigh each week to hear Barber speak against the policies of General Assembly.
When the NAACP staged its first protest on April 29, Barber was among the 17 arrested. Those arrestees now wear pens that read "I went to jail with Reverend Barber." Following this week's Mass Moral Monday, more than 550 people have now been arrested.
Rev. William Barber speaking at Mass Moral Monday on June 24
UNC Communications Professor, Christian Lundberg, specializes in theories of the public discourse, public speaking, rhetorical theory, and debate and deliberation.
He explained that Barber keeps with the traditions of speakers from African American churches associated with the Civil Rights movement.
"But the most interesting thing is that further into the speech, he starts to change from the short and simple sentences, to eloquent and figural language. There are lots of metaphors and lots of repetition," Lundberg said.
Lundberg identified several techniques that Barber employs in his speeches. He begins with declarative sentences, and then as he gets in to the speech, picks up the pace and intensifies his volume.
Coming from a church background, Barber's speeches are also heavily laced with Biblical references. Many "amens" can be heard from the crowds at the demonstrations, as people of faith and clergy members have been very active in the rallies.
Geoffrey Frank, who attends the United Church of Chapel Hill, has been to five NAACP protests and said he loves to hear Barber speak. Frank said it's more than just Barber's energy that gets his attention.
"He really understands the issues and comes at them from a moral point of view. He puts his message across very well and knows the scriptures and how that applies," Frank said.
Lundberg explains that Barber speaks in anaphoric expressions, where he begins each phrase with the same word, and then does a riff on that word.
It's a stylistic approach used by many Southern preachers, and the cumulative effect, Lundberg explains, conveys passion to listeners.
"He's really taking lots of individual issues in the political debate and tying them to this larger narrative frame that links the struggle in Raleigh right now to the struggle in the civil rights movement. Those two things work together to move him toward a really passionate and engaging leader, especially for audiences who share some of his assumptions," Lundberg said.
However, not everyone in North Carolina is taken by what Barber has to say. NC State Senator Thom Goolsby called the Civil Disobedience Movement "Moron Monday."
"The interesting thing about our culture is that people listen to speeches less to be challenged now, but rather to confirm what their own opinions are," Lundberg said.
Lundberg pointed out, though, that the response of the listener depends heavily on their ideological beliefs.
"For liberal and progressive folks who identify with his critiques of the state, they see that screaming as an extension of his passion. It's something that they can get into, and get excited about. I imagine for folks who are on the conservative side, they see that as just screaming. It adds more fuel to the fire over a very partisan debate," Lundberg said.
Lundberg said time will tell how successful Barber is at reaching the North Carolinians who are somewhere in the middle of the political spectrum.
"That is what is really interesting about guys like that if they are able to reach the more moderate folks to agree with the message. Speakers were very effective with that during the Civil Rights movement of the 1960's and whether or not that will be effective in our political context, I don't know. What I do know is that guy is able to execute his strategy quiet well and so it's interesting to listen and watch," Lundberg said.
Barber and others involved in the Civil Disobedience Movement have said they won't stop protesting until they see change in the legislation coming out of the General Assembly.
The next rally is set for this Monday; Barber has called for greater numbers to attend, dubbing it another Mass Moral Monday.

It's just a luncheon
The Oscar nominees' luncheon went down yesterday – no Meryl, no Brange. Meryl doesn't have time to fly all the way in from New York for a luncheon. She's Meryl Streep. And it's like her 15th time, right?
But why no Brange, since they've been campaigning so heavily for so long? Well, the Slumdog backlash has been working hard for them already. Add that to the world orgasm caused by their twins last week and they could afford to skip the afternoon social. Benjamin Button has friends in deep, inside Hollywood places. Our Slumdog is getting his ass kicked.
Yes, the Benjamin Button support is strong. From the bowels of industry to the boisterous Brangelunatic community, Benjamin fans must be heard! And they can be louder and more vociferous than a braces-wearing crowd at a Jonas Brothers concert. Just this morning, I received what's become my favourite email in weeks. Let's just call her D:
Lainey, I hate you with a vengeance. You are nothing more than a gossip monger. I hope when Benjamin Button wins best picture at the Oscars your ass eats crow. You can join all the anti button fools like your self and that wouldn't make you any better than the Jolie- Pitts because they have each other and their beautiful children and all you have is your ugly dog. HATER.
Adorable, right?
But no Brange doesn't mean no intrigue.
There was some intrigue.
Check it out – Sean Penn and Mickey Rourke, locked in a tight battle for Best Actor, popped out for a ciggie break …and a truce? Both insist there is no animosity but that doesn't mean they don't want to win badly. Nor does it mean they won't do what it takes it get it. Sean in particular has been very active on the campaign trail. Very. But maybe he feels badly about what happened to Mickey last week. The Evan Rachel Wood situation. The reputation situation. As such, maybe Sean is calling a ceasefire on luncheon day, bro to bro, just to keep things real.
But how altruistic could it be if the paps were there, and it makes Sean look like the more gracious in the process?

Psst, have you heard the news? The Global War on Terror is finito.
So an unnamed senior State Department official recently told a National Journal writer: "The war on terror is over. Now that we have killed most of al Qaeda, now that people have come to see legitimate means of expression, people who once might have gone into al Qaeda see an opportunity for a legitimate Islamism."
Translation: Thanks to the vigorous drone campaign against the remnants of Osama bin Laden's terrorist organization, and to the Arab Spring, it's safe for the Obama administration to embrace the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamists coming to power in Egypt and elsewhere.
The "War on Terror" meme is an unwelcome relic of the Bush era. It's time to move on.
There's some truth here. President Obama's administration has vigorously continued and even expanded his predecessor's relentless hunting of al Qaeda terrorists, raining remote-controlled death from the skies.
But if the terror war is effectively over, why are 300 million Americans still in a state of transportation lockdown?
If a few dead-enders are all that's left of al Qaeda, why not end the farce that is "airport security" under the widely loathed Transportation Security Administration and return to the days before 9/11, when you didn't have to be strip-searched to board a plane?
Instead, of course, the TSA is expanding its reach to bus and train stations — and adding ever-more intrusive technology to its airport empire.
And why is the Fourth Amendment (which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures) still being violated if the threat has passed?
Because these two very different branches of our government have such very different dreams.
Neither career diplomats at State nor their current Obama-ite political overseers ever much cottoned to the War on Terror — which made it so much more difficult to come to terms with our enemies. But the threat was the mother of the Department of Homeland Security, parent of the TSA, and remains the mother's milk of its empire-building.
Both branches prefer to ignore their duty to the public.
Far from changing the antipathetic nature of Arab societies toward the West, the Arab Spring — for now, anyway — is merely replacing relatively secular dictators with hard-line Islamists, who openly call for the destruction of Israel and the imposition of sharia law.
The Muslim Brotherhood credo: "God is our objective; the Koran is our constitution, the Prophet is our leader; Jihad is our way; and death for the sake of God is the highest of our aspirations."
Not much resemblance to the Founding Fathers there.
Even the death of al Qaeda leaves us with the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah — not to mention Iran. Oh, and homegrown jihadis like Maj. Nidal Hasan, who killed 13 of his fellow servicemen at Fort Hood in 2009.
The threat remains — but it never justified most of the TSA's nonsense. Nothing excuses the rudeness and the pawing — let alone the molestation and the pilferage. For all the show of security, these "inspectors" miss as much as 70 percent of the weapons that pass their way.
True, TSA is moving — well, creeping — toward a "trusted-traveler" program to pre-clear the bulk of the citizenry. The agency's even testing the radical idea of letting passengers over age 75 keep their shoes and light jackets on.
From State to Homeland Security, it's the duty of the political masters to remind the bureaucrats of the public interest — to demand a realistic appraisal of threats and also guard our personal freedoms.
The main issue in the upcoming election will be the economy. But personal freedom and economic freedom are linked; you can't have growth without mobility.
So it's time to call the politicians' bluff. If the terrorist threat is over, why not ease up on travel restrictions? Or are we all condemned to suffering the so-called "long war" with no end in sight — or even possible?
Which is it?
The man who best answers that question will be the next president.

Evidence of possible shark abuse caught on video
SINGER ISLAND, Fla. (WPEC) - Some call it disturbing, disgusting, and even despicable. Three fishermen on Singer Island make a big catch but it may not be legal.
The reason? They were shark fishing and caught a Great Hammerhead shark which is on the endangered list.
A woman who works for "National Geographic" caught the incident on video.
She's a diver of more than two decades and someone who has worked for the last two and 1/2 years with Hammerhead sharks and couldn't even believe what she was seeing.
As she looked off the side of her boat, she saw the shark on the beach with a group of people surrounding it.
Three fishermen reportedly caught the shark but since it's on the endangered species list, there's only one thing they were allowed to do – cut the line.
On her video showing the scene, Leigh Cobb can be heard shouting, "They can't get the hook out," as a man on the boat agreed. "Look. Get him in the water."
The chaotic scene played out Thursday morning.
Judging by the size of the hook, the line, and the reel, Cobb believes there's no question what the men were doing.
"It's beyond me," she told WPEC. "The devastation I felt? I couldn't breathe. I literally could not breathe."
She told us she knew the line that they had on that shark was purposely to fish for shark.
The 13-foot-shark can grow up to about 20 feet. It's their facial features that distinguish them from other sharks.
"I'm completely outraged at that these people could kill beautiful creatures that's responsible for maintaining the health of our oceans," said shark expert and conservationist Jim Abernethy.
Abernethy has taken pictures of 20 Hammerheads dead on the beach in the last 5 years.
"They catch one," Abernethe said. "They pull it up on the beach. They take a lot of pictures with it and they put it back in the water and it swims off for a moment but it doesn't have enough energy to make it and it washes back up on the shore dead."
"Cone on sweetheart," Cobb could be heard saying on the video as the Hammerhead was in the water trying to make it out into the Atlantic. "Please swim."
There's no word on the fate of the shark. If it is dead, those fishermen could face federal charges since it's on the endangered species list.
As for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, they weren't immediately aware of the case but said they'd look into it.

5200 Old Santa Fe Trail is truly a treasure of the American Southwest. Nestled in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, overlooking historic Santa Fe, New Mexico, the property showcases the unique, rustic beauty of the high desert.
From the moment you enter through the unassuming front gates of this breathtaking estate, you experience why New Mexico is called the Land of Enchantment. This 36 acre property provides a distinct backdrop for a magnificent estate that exemplifies the wonders of the Southwest. No detail was overlooked in the architecture — from the hand-forged wrought iron railings, diamond trowelled plaster walls, and custom cabinetry, to floors of imported stone, marble, ceramic tile, and hardwoods including hickory and quarter sawn oak. Large windows and skylights, custom draperies, light fixtures, and wooden beam vegas and latillas also add to the unique beauty of the interiors.
The original home was built in the early 1940s. Over the next seventy years, additional land was acquired and assembled, the property was renovated and expanded, and the many site improvements and buildings were precisely designed and integrated into the current setting. Care was taken to maintain the integrity of the Pueblo-style architecture, which is symbolic of the area's original inhabitants dating back as early as 1050 A.D.

To the Editor:
I just read a letter from Kara Young in the April 23rd edition and was stunned.
With regards to same-sex marriage, Ms. Young and I disagree – but I do agree with her views about the Massachusetts father (David Parker) not wanting his 5-year-old son exposed to certain book material. Firstly, why does the school have a book for kindergarten on marriage and romance of any kind in the first place? I don't think this is age appropriate. His son is in kindergarten! Shouldn't a parent have the right to filter what a very young child gets exposed to? Secondly, the response which was given to David Parker in the interview with Family Research Council is laughable. Just because "same-sex marriage is legal in Massachusetts" doesn't give classrooms the right to "broach it any time with your child." Abortion is legal in Massachusetts, but should that be a topic for kindergarten children?
We need to get back to what's really important for children that age: Learning, listening and helping others.
Jerry Ferreira
Jerry, if you want the FACTS surrounding the David Parker case, do NOT look to Kara Young, or her highly biased sources, to supply them...

Liberty News
Thelma Wells delivers convocation message
Author and professional speaker Thelma Wells challenged Liberty University students at Monday's convocation to have victory over anxiety and obey the call of God on their lives.
Wells, founder of A Woman of God Ministries, has been speaking professionally for more than 30 years, sharing her testimony and encouraging women. As a child, she suffered abuse by her grandmother, and has used those experiences to help others. Wells has spoken at both the Extraordinary Women Conference and the Women of Faith Tour. She is the president of the Daughters of Zion Leadership Mentoring Program, which she founded in 2000. She has mentored more than 1,000 "spiritual daughters" through the program.
Wells began Monday's message by sharing a story about when she was confined to her bed for nine days due to severe burns on her arm from an accident. During those days, Wells said, she became frustrated with God. She said that instead of telling God what we want, as if God does not already know, Christians should be sensitive and obedient to God's will. She quoted Psalm 34:7, "Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart."
Wells closed her message by reading from Philippians 4:6, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." She asked students to practice renewing their minds each day and to avoid being influenced in the wrong ways by keeping their focus on God at all times.
"If you're worried and discontented, he already knows who you are, where you are, and every hair on your head. He already knows!" Wells said. "If you are fearful, listen — God did not give you a spirit of fear, he gave you a spirit of love and of power and of a sound mind."
