Where were you 27 years ago? If you were an Ohio State football fan, you might have been poring over a list of head coach Earle Bruce's newest recruits. It was a 23-member class that was top-heavy on in-state talent and split almost evenly between offensive and defensive prospects.
Just a week before signing day in 1982, Bruce was beginning to wonder about his recruiting numbers. The class number was stalled at 17, making the final weekend of official visits crucial for the Buckeyes. Unlike in recent years, though, OSU closed with a big finish, getting six verbal commitments just hours before National Signing Day dawned.
Among that half-dozen were two of the best players in Ohio – offensive lineman Bob Maggs of Youngstown Cardinal Mooney and running back Keith Byars of Dayton Roth. Both players were somewhat of a pleasant surprise for Bruce. Maggs was thought to be leaning toward a commitment to either Notre Dame or Penn State before signing with the Buckeyes. Meanwhile, Byars was thought to be headed for UCLA before deciding to play his college ball a little closer to home.
The other late-deciding members of the class of '82 were defensive back Scott Leach of Bridgeport, Conn.; linebacker Tom Bose of Stow, Ohio; offensive lineman Tim Odom of Cincinnati Moeller; and defensive lineman Gene Hulshult of Hamilton (Ohio) Badin. Of those four, the Buckeyes seemed to be most impressed with Leach and Hulshult.
Leach picked Ohio State over offers from USC, Tennessee and Syracuse, and was described as a Jack Tatum clone, capable of delivering punishing tackles. Hulshult, meanwhile, was projected as a player ready to make an early impact on the depth chart.
"I think I have a good shot at playing," Hulshult told Buckeye Sports Bulletin at the time. "I think I can go in and play. Maybe not as a freshman but as a sophomore or junior."
Despite the fact Bruce often did much of his recruiting in his home state, he uncharacteristically went outside Ohio to sign the two quarterbacks in the 1982 class. Jim Karsatos of Fullerton, Calif., joined Walter Norley of Warrington, Pa., as new Buckeyes. At the same time, Bruce allowed one homegrown signal caller to escape his grasp.
That was Parade All-American QB Bernie Kosar of Youngstown (Ohio) Boardman, who signed with Miami (Fla.). After redshirting with the Hurricanes in 1982 behind starter Jim Kelly, Kosar broke into the starting lineup as a redshirt freshman in '83 and led Miami to its first national championship.
Here is a complete list of Ohio State's recruiting class of 1982. See how many of them you can remember.
Dan Bachorski, OT, Bridgeville (Pa.) Chartiers Valley – Bachorski played both offensive and defense in high school and earned all-state honors as an offensive tackle in 1981 as a senior. Unfortunately, he reported for his first Ohio State about 35 pounds overweight and spent most of his first few years as a Buckeye trying to keep his weight under control. Bachorski finally looked like he had turned the corner during spring practice in 1985 but he left the team shortly thereafter and won no letters during his OSU career.
Roman Bates, RB, Memphis (Tenn.) Hamilton – The 6-0, 207-pound Bates had lots of speed and plenty of power. He could bench press 365 pounds and squat lift 665. As a high school senior, he rushed for 1,616 yards and 19 TDs, and then lettered for the Buckeyes in 1983 and '84 as both a tailback and fullback. In those two seasons, he totaled 447 yards and averaged a nifty 5.0 yards per carry. But Bates was plagued by injuries and run-ins with the law during his OSU career. He was limited to only a handful of games during his junior season in 1985, and then shortly before the 1986 season opener, Bruce announced he had dismissed Bates from the team for "violating team regulations."
Tom Bose, LB, Stow, Ohio – Bose was a two-sport from Stow and served as captain of his high school's football and basketball teams as a senior. He won third-team All-Ohio honors in 1981 as a linebacker but was versatile enough to have also played offensive tackle and tight end for the Bulldogs. Unfortunately, he could not duplicate that success at Ohio State. Bose never lettered for the Buckeyes.
Keith Byars, FB, Dayton (Ohio) Roth – Over the last three decades, Byars is one of the most gifted all-around athletes to play football at Ohio State. He was a four-sport star at Roth and excelled at everything he tries. Byars rushed for 1,701 yards and 14 TDs as a senior; started at forward on two state basketball championship teams; played center field on the baseball team and hit .520 as a junior and .480 as a senior; and ran on the state track championship 440-yard relay team. After spending his freshman season as a backup fullback, Byars broke out as a sophomore with 1,199 yards and 20 TDs in 1983, and then had a junior season of epic proportions. In addition to rushing for 22 touchdowns, he broke the OSU single-season record with 1,764 yards. He also added 42 receptions for 479 yards and two more scores. That year, Byars finished second in the Heisman Trophy balloting to Boston College quarterback Doug Flutie. Unfortunately, Byars broke a bone in his foot prior to his senior season in 1985 and was limited to only a handful of games. Nevertheless, he went on to become a first-round draft pick of Philadelphia in the 1986 NFL draft, and Byars enjoyed a 14-year pro career with the Eagles, Dolphins, Patriots and Jets.
Jeff Cargile, RB, Cincinnati (Ohio) Roger Bacon – The 6-1, 203-pounder did a little bit of everything in high school, earning a total of nine letters combined in football, basketball and track. He had 2,715 yards and 25 career TDs for the Spartans, and earned all-city honors as a senior. Because of a glut of talented running backs ahead of him, Cargile switched to defense and earned letters in 1983 and '84 as backup to starting roverback Sonny Gordon. He left the program before the 1985 season.
Tom Glancy, OL, West Palm Beach (Fla.) Cardinal Newman – Glancy was an accomplished high school athlete who won letters in football, wrestling and track, and he also dabbled in racquetball and swimming. The 6-4, 264-pound was recruited to play offensive guard for the Buckeyes and appeared ready to contend for the starting spot in 1985. But he couldn't break into the two-deep and eventually left the program with no letters.
Steve Hill, DB, Fort Walton Beach (Fla.) Choctawhatchee – Hill was an Air Force brat who grew up all over the world. He was an excellent two-sport star in high school, and lettered in baseball as well as football for the Buckeyes. Hill hit .310 and played outfield for the baseball Buckeyes to win his only letter in 1985, and he earned three football letters from 1983-85 as a backup cornerback. His athletic career ended in the spring of 1986 when he suffered a freak kneecap injury while playing baseball, but he served the final year of his scholarship as a student-coach for the football team.
Dennis Hueston, LB, Toledo (Ohio) Macomber – At 6-1 and 204 pounds, Hueston was a bit undersized to play linebacker but that didn't stop the Buckeyes from recruiting him. He was good enough to earn all-city honors on both offense and defense, and he earned third-team All-Ohio mention as an outside linebacker. Hueston lettered for the Buckeyes in 1983, and registered 35 tackles, including a pair of sacks, the following season. He left the team prior to the 1985 season.
John Hutchison, LB, Atwater (Ohio) Waterloo – The 6-3, 236-pound Hutchison was versatile enough to play quarterback and linebacker for his high school team. He began his OSU career as an outside linebacker, but switched to tight end in the spring of 1983. Hutchison spent the remainder of his career backing up starter Ed Taggart, but he was valuable enough to earn three letters from 1984 to '86.
Gene Hulshult, DL, Hamilton (Ohio) Badin – An all-state defensive tackle for the Rams, the 6-4, 246-pound Hulshult was envisioned as a potential hole-plugger for the Buckeyes. OSU coaches described him as a "fundamentally sound" defensive lineman, and he came from a winning program that posted a record of 33-5 during his three years as a starter. Unfortunately, his college career never got started and he never lettered as a Buckeye.
Thomas "Pepper" Johnson, LB, Detroit (Mich.) MacKenzie – The 6-3, 216-pound all-state terror earned his unusual nickname from an aunt who observed him regularly sprinkling pepper on his breakfast cereal. Johnson teamed with Chris Spielman in 1984 and '85 to give the Buckeyes one of the most awesome one-two linebacker punches in college football history. Johnson topped 140 tackles in each of his last two seasons and was voted the team's defensive most valuable player both years. Earning All-America honors as a senior, he was also voted as one of the team captains in both his junior and senior seasons. Johnson was a second-round selection in the 1986 NFL draft by the New York Giants and he anchored a defense that won Super Bowl championships in 1986 and 1990. He was a two-time Pro Bowler and spent 13 seasons in the NFL with the Giants, Browns, Lions and Jets. Since 2000, he has been an assistant coach for the New England Patriots, first with linebackers and now with the defensive line, and has won three more Super Bowl rings with that team. Johnson's son, Dionte, played four seasons at fullback for Ohio State from 2004-07, and when the younger Johnson was voted team co-captain for the '07 season, it made the Johnsons only the third father-son combination in school history to serve as captains. The others are Jim and Kirk Herbstreit (1960 and 1992) and James and Jeff Davidson (1964 and 1989).
Jim Karsatos, QB, Fullerton (Calif.) Sunny Hills – After an excellent high school career that included throwing for 4,426 yards and 40 touchdowns, Karsatos took a while to get his Ohio State career going. He was actually part of the team's 1981 recruiting class, but he underwent knee surgery and delayed his enrollment. He redshirted in '82, and then suffered a stress fracture in his back the following summer. By the team he had regained his health, Karsatos was locked in behind starter Mike Tomczak. Once Tomczak graduated, though, Karsatos took over and was the Buckeyes' QB in 1985 and '86. He became the first Ohio State quarterback ever to enjoy back-to-back 2,000-yard seasons and finished his career with 5,089 yards and 36 TDs. The yardage figure is eighth all-time in school history and the touchdown total ranks sixth.
Mike Kee, LB, Columbus (Ohio) Eastmoor – Kee earned all-state honors as a senior for the Warriors and was named to play in the Ohio North-South All-Star Game. Unfortunately, he blew out a knee in a summer league basketball game and missed the entire 1982 season. Kee returned to letter as a backup linebacker and special teams player in 1983, but injuries limited him to only two games in '84. Again, he rehabbed and eventually became at starter at linebacker in 1986. Kee totaled 93 tackles, including seven for loss, and also caused three fumbles for the Buckeyes during his senior season in '86.
Mike Lanese, RB, Mayfield, Ohio – Lanese was recruited as a tailback after rushing for 1,417 yards and 12 touchdowns as a senior. After displaying his quick moves and penchant for catching the football, it didn't take the Buckeyes long to move him to a receiver position, however. Lanese was the starting flanker in 1984 and '85, and finished his career with 73 receptions for 1,175 yards, an average of 16.1 yards per catch. In addition to his accomplishments on the field, Lanese was also an honor student in the classroom. He was a two-time Academic All-American, a National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame Scholarship winner and a Rhodes Scholar.
Scott Leach, DB, Bridgeport (Conn.) Bassick – With a 6-3, 214-pound frame and good speed, Leach was a terror in the defensive backfield and earned co-player of the year honors in Connecticut as a high school senior. He blew out his knee as a freshman at Ohio State in 1982 but rehabbed and became a valuable backup and special teams player for the Buckeyes. Leach was a three-year letterwinner from 1984 to '86.
Byron Lee, LB, Columbus (Ohio) Eastmoor – Lee was overshadowed on a team that also featured All-Americans such as Johnson and Spielman, but he had a workmanlike attitude and was a member of one of college football's best linebacking corps during the era. Lee was a three-sport star at Eastmoor, and made an almost immediate impact when he joined the Buckeyes. He was a three-year starter on the outside and was consistently the team's best player at getting after the quarterback. Lee established a new school record in 1984 by sacking Indiana quarterbacks for 32 yards in losses. That mark was equaled by Vernon Gholston in 2007 against Wisconsin, but it has never been bettered. Lee completed his career with 10 sacks for 111 yards in losses.
Darryl Lee, DL, Columbus (Ohio) Marion Franklin – The 6-3, 258-pounder had a perpetual motor and once registered 30 tackles in a high school game. Lee also seemed to be in the right place at the right time, including his freshman year when he blocked a punt in the end zone against Minnesota that gave the Buckeyes a touchdown. The four-year letterman started at defensive tackle in 1985 and '86, and totaled 69 tackles, including 9.0 for loss and 3.0 sacks, during those two seasons.
Bob Maggs, OL, Youngstown (Ohio) Cardinal Mooney – The 6-5, 274-pounder earned prep All-America honors at Mooney, and the Cardinals posted a 22-1 record during the two seasons he was a starter. Maggs started his career as a tackle, but switched to center when starter Kirk Lowdermilk broke his leg eight games into the 1984 season. Maggs continued his stranglehold on the position for the remainder of his career and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors in both 1985 and '86.
Tom McCormick, OL, Lakewood (Ohio) St. Edward – Long before nearly every offensive tackle prospect stood 6-5 or taller, the 6-7 McCormick was one of the tallest OSU prospects at the time. He earned first-team All-Ohio honors and had exceptionally quick feet for a big man. McCormick couldn't crack the lineup with the Buckeyes, however, and never lettered.
Walter Norley, QB, Warrington (Pa.) Germantown Academy – No one really knows just how good Norley could have become at Ohio State. After throwing for more than 2,100 yards and 25 TDs in 2½ high school seasons, the 6-3, 196-pounder broke his collarbone in the fifth game of his senior season and missed the rest of the year. Then, before he got to OSU, Norley injured his back in a summer all-star game and decided to delay his enrollment for a year. Norley never became a Buckeye and eventually enrolled at Georgia, where he was a backup quarterback and won his only letter in 1983.
Tim Odom, OL, Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller – Odom had a superlative high school career, earning All-Ohio and All-America honors as a guard and helping the Crusaders to back-to-back state championships in 1980 and '81. When he got to OSU, the Buckeyes moved him to center where he was a backup to Lowdermilk and Maggs in 1984. Odom won his only letter than season as a chronic knee injury forced him to miss the entire '85 season and eventually give up football.
Mark Pfister, LB, Upper Arlington, Ohio – Pfister was a talented 6-2, 232-pound bruiser who starred at linebacker in high school, helping the Golden Bears to a three-year record of 28-4-1. Power was one of his attributes with a bench press in excess of 400 pounds and a squat lift of 625. Unfortunately, a litany of injuries followed Pfister throughout his OSU career. He suffered an ulcer, a severely sprained knee, a separation shoulder, a hand injury and a second shoulder separation before finally giving up the game after lettering in 1983 and '84.
Rich Spangler, K, Geneva, Ohio – Spangler was a gangly 6-2, 180-pound kicking specialist that more than one teammate initially mistook for a team manager. By the time he had graduated four years later, he was one of Ohio State's all-time leading scorers. Spangler kicked 39 field goals during his career, which still ranks fifth on the school's all-time list, and booted a 52-yarder in the 1985 Rose Bowl against USC, the longest field goal in Ohio State bowl history. Spangler also benefited from a potent OSU offense during his career to convert 177 of 184 PAT attempts. Both numbers remain school records nearly a quarter-century after Spangler last kicked for the Buckeyes. His 294 career points still ranks sixth all-time behind Mike Nugent (356), Pete Johnson (348), Dan Stultz (342), Keith Byars (300) and Vlade Janakievski (295).
Barry Walker, FB, Lancaster, Ohio – Walker maximized his talents despite suffering several injuries and struggling with asthma throughout his playing career. He rushed for 1,129 yards as a high school senior and also set an Ohio prep shot put record at 69 feet, 10¾ inches. When he got to the Buckeyes, he flip-flopped between fullback and tailback and suffered shoulder injuries as well as a couple of concussions. Nevertheless, he shouldered on and won four letters between 1983 and '86. He also started at the fullback position in 1984, rushing for 154 yards on just 30 carries, an average of 5.1 yards per carry.
John Wooldridge, RB, Akron (Ohio) Central-Hower – Wooldridge was an All-Ohio running back in high school and totaled more than 1,500 yards and 22 TDs as a senior. A blend of speed (4.42 in the 40) and power (squat lift of 600 pounds), he became the perfect backfield complement to Byars. Wooldridge was a four-year letterman and took over the starting tailback spot when Byars was sidelined for most of the 1985 season, leading the Buckeyes with 820 yards that year. The 5-11, 190-pounder returned to a backup position during his senior year as sophomore Vince Workman took over the starting tailback spot. Wooldridge finished his OSU career with 1,483 yards and four TDs.
Among the worldwide luminaries celebrating birthdays this 5th day of March: Hockey Hall of Famer Milt Schmidt is 91; former MLB catcher and manager Del Crandall is 79; Eighties TV actor James B. Sikking (Lt. Howard Hunter in "Hill Street Blues") is 75; actor and former NFL player Fred "The Hammer" Williamson is 71; former MLB reliever Kent Tekulve is 62; reggae musician Eddy Grant ("Electric Avenue") is 61; Dire Straits keyboardist Alan Clark is 57; comedian/magician Penn Jillette is 54; The Proclaimers frontmen Charlie and Craig Reid ("I'm Gonna Be 500 Miles") are 47; Pro Football Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin is 43; Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist John Frusciante is 39; former MLB outfielder Jeffrey Hammonds is 38; St. Louis Cardinals reliever Ryan Franklin is 36; actor Kevin Connolly (Eric Murphy on "Entourage") is 35; actress Eva Mendes is 35; actress Jolene Blalock (Commander T'Pol in "Star Trek: Enterprise") is 34; model Niki Taylor is 34; Chicago White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko is 33; and Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Wally Szczerbiak is 32.
Today also marks the 46th anniversary of the country version of "When The Music Died." On March 5, 1963, county legend Patsy Cline was killed when her small airplane crashed in a forest just outside of Camden, Tenn., about 90 miles from Nashville. Cline, who recorded such standards as "Walking After Midnight," "I Fall To Pieces," "She's Got You" and "Crazy," was only 30.
Others who have passed into history on March 5 over the years include: Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev; Soviet Union dictator Joseph Stalin; St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Pepper Martin; actor Jay Silverheels (he portrayed Tonto, the Lone Ranger's faithful companion); actor William Powell; and comic actor John Belushi.
Did you know there are currently three bills in committee in the U.S. House of Representatives concerning the Bowl Championship Series? Unbelievable given the economic circumstances we find ourselves in, but true nonetheless.
One bill, sponsored by Rep. Gary Miller (R-Calif.), would withhold federal funds from any Division I-A school that doesn't participate in a playoff. Another, whose main sponsor is Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas), would prohibit a national championship game on the grounds that it was unfair and deceptive. The third would reject the BCS as an illegal restraint of trade in violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, and it is sponsored by Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-Hawaii).
Honestly, is this the kind of thing we sent you people to Washington to do? I humbly suggest you write to these three nimrods and tell them to get their eyes back on the ball – and I don't mean football.
** That poor 40 time in the NFL Combine seems to have sent Malcolm Jenkins' stock plummeting like that of AIG. Before the draft, Jenkins was projected by most analysts as a top-10 pick. On Monday, Jamie Dukes of the NFL Network released his latest mock draft and Jenkins is nowhere to be found in the first round. Dukes projects Beanie Wells and James Laurinaitis as the lone Ohio State players to be taken in the opening round – Wells to Philadelphia at No. 21 and Laurinaitis to Baltimore at No. 26.
** NFL draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. evidently agrees with Dukes. Kiper had Jenkins at No. 12 on his "Big Board" before the combine. After the workouts in Indianapolis, Jenkins dropped off that board which features Kiper's top 26 draft prospects. Still, Kiper rates Jenkins as the No. 1 cornerback available this year. "Jenkins has all the qualities you look for except topflight catch-up speed, which is an obvious concern," Kiper wrote last week after the combine. "Even so, he's too good an overall performer to pass up in the middle portion of Round 1. Hopefully, he'll run a little better than the 4.55-second 40 time he posted at the combine workout."
** For anyone who still thinks Joe Paterno entertains any notion of retirement, look at what former Penn State receiver Derrick Williams told reporters at the NFL combine: "Joe Paterno's one of those coaches that he eats, sleeps, dreams everything about football. That's what's keeping him going. He's very young at heart. We know that if he was going to retire, something would have really, really had to been wrong, like he died on the field or something like that. I never even thought about it. I thought this year might have been the year and the next thing I hear is, 'I can't wait to run out on the field next year.'"
** Some major college programs are interested in playing marquee series while others are not. Every Ohio State fan knows the Buckeyes will play Miami (Fla.), Virginia Tech and Oklahoma in the coming years, while LSU and West Virginia recently announced their home-and-home series will begin in 2010. Then there are schools such as Missouri and Wisconsin. The Tigers have announced they will fill out their 2009 schedule with Furman while the Badgers completed their 2011 slate with South Dakota. I understand the reasoning behind scheduling I-AA opposition, but schools should at least put representative teams from the so-called Football Championship Subdivision. Furman went 7-5 last year and South Dakota was 6-5.
** One of the most talked-about college quarterback prospects of the future is David Sills of Bear, Del. He is currently working with QB tutor Steve Clarkson, who has also mentored the sons of Wayne Gretzky and Joe Montana, who share quarterbacking duties at Oaks Christian High School in Westlake Village, Calif. The most unusual thing about Sills? The thing that currently sets him apart from Clarkson's other pupils? He's 12.
** When it's time for me to go, I think I'd like Liev Schreiber to give the eulogy. In case you didn't know, Schreiber is the narrator of all those great HBO sports documentaries.

Hello Brooklyn: One part pop music and one part hip-hop... all blended together and spiked with some rock'n'roll. That's how HELLO BROOKLYN was formed in late 2011 in the city that never sleeps, NYC. HELLO BROOKLYN's creativity and unique lineup transforms their live shows into your favorite concert, dance party, rock event and singing-along-in-the-shower all mashed up into a high energy performance. From the latest pop songs to the hottest hip-hop and dance hits, the band strives to keep people singing and dancing along all night long. HELLO BROOKLYN is led by the unique duo of Liz Regan and Ray Ramos. Liz brings a girl-next-door vibe infused with a big rock'n'roll voice and uplifting charisma while Ray's intensity, authenticity and skills as a MC have earned him fans throughout the East Coast having previously fronted successful bands in Philadelphia and Washington DC for over a decade. Depending on who you ask, our band's name came from a variety of origins. Some say it's because three of the band's original five members lived in Brooklyn, while others claim it is an homage to the "Hello Brooklyn" records by the Beastie Boys and JayZ. Or is it because when you leave one of our rowdy shows in Greenwich Village you see the sunrise and say hello to the BK. All of these theories hold some merit, but as long as it's synonymous with having a good time and singing at the top of your lungs, we're good. PS - the bulldog in our logo is our band mascot Taco who lives a spoiled fatty life.

Book Review - The Sacrifical Man by Ruth Dugdale
This is one of the most complex mysteries you may ever read as you try to decipher who is the victim here. Alice Mariani has assisted her boyfriend's suicide but their pact included her eating a part of him. Probation Officer Cate Austin is part of the legal system working to assess firstly what has happened and then assign legal responsibility and recommend appropriate sentencing. Very different to your normal forensic detecting, this is a dark and gripping narrative. I'm not sure that I liked Alice much at all but I "enjoyed" the journey she took me on. Wendy

DJ Pandora's Jukebox premieres the soundtrack to Alistair Carr's modern Pringle vision
Alistair Carr is a man with experience of designing in a number of different contexts. Graduating from Central Saint Martins' MA course in 2003, he initially set up his own label, which he showed in London for three seasons, before moving to Italy to further hone his skill for Marni. He subsequently lent his hand to Cacharel, Chloé and Balenciaga, before taking the reins at Pringle of Scotland, in 2011.
Set the task of updating the aesthetic for today's audience, Carr brought in digitised versions of the classic intarsia alongside vibrant colours and new patterns and shapes
Last season was his first offering for the brand and he aptly looked back at their knitwear history for inspiration. Set the task of updating the aesthetic for today's audience, Carr brought in digitised versions of the classic intarsia alongside vibrant colours and new patterns and shapes.
His initial ideas and concepts for the label are still in place but seem even further refined. The sense of modernity still there but rather than it seeming a little like a clash between the old and the new, this collection marries the history of the label with the desires of a modern woman. Carr has a contemporary guiding hand that very much respects the story of Pringle.
To the Yasmina Dexter–mixed soundtrack, models sported looks with a pure feel, layers brought in, cut away and contrasting sections built up, as skirts were gently pleated or slashed through the thigh. Colours were kept simple, monochromatic elements opening, followed by deeper hues, browns and reds, a lightness and the occasional pop of colour. Alongside classic knit pieces, the addition of chiffons and silk added subtle poetry and luxury – which box-cut camelhair and a bomber-coat in textured leather reitterated.

From SlashDot: Mozilla Develops Gladius 3D Game Engine
"Mozilla is developing its own 3D engine called Gladius as part of a wider Paladin project whose aim it is to bring 3D to the web. As all programmers know, the best way to learn is to experiment, and that's exactly what Mozilla is doing. In order to develop Gladius the team decided to create a game called RescueFox (best played in Firefox). It's a very basic prototype, and Mozilla has no interest in taking it further, but the purpose it served was to highlight what still needs to be done to make Gladius a solid web browser 3D engine solution."

If someone had asked a five-year-old Irma Morin what she wanted to be when she grew up, she never would have imagined that she'd one day rise to the role of executive director at the Community Council of Idaho, Inc., Idaho's largest nonprofit serving Latinos. As the daughter of migrant farm workers, Irma had a difficult journey from migrant worker to executive. However, from the beginning, she was determined to make her parents proud. "My parents seeing me walk down the aisle with a college graduation cap and diploma was the ultimate gift I could give for all that they had done for me," said Morin.
As a child, Irma attended the Community Council of Idaho, Inc.'s Head Start program in Nampa, ID. From this early age, Irma was set on her desire to further her education. However, her family was soon on the move and Irma struggled to obtain consistent schooling. As her family traveled to California alongside other farmworkers, Irma witnessed the struggles farmworkers faced: "Throughout my childhood, what I defined as the hardest jobs in the world were that of farmworkers." At the age of eleven, Irma started work in the fields.
Eventually, Irma's family settled permanently in Idaho. Through the same agency where Irma had once attended Head Start, the family found support and, for the first time, was able to put down roots in a community. Irma described this period as an "opportunity to expand the world I had known. With support of my parents, I challenged myself in every way I could." With the assistance of Community Council of Idaho, Inc., Irma was able to turn her dream of college into a reality. In 1992, she received a Bachelor of Science in accounting from Boise State University. Following her graduation, she knew what she wanted to do: take a job at the Community Council of Idaho and give back to the agency that had done so much for her family.
From that first job, all the way to the top, every time Irma talks to her parents about her work, "all that can be seen is a big smile." "They are not smiling because of the title I hold with this agency but, instead, they are so proud of the little girl who grew up to dedicate her life to expanding the services that farmworkers and low-income populations once never had or dreamed of having," Irma said.

Dauphin County school district could cut pre-K
Budget deficit forcing cuts
Priscilla Gimmi and her daughters just moved to Steelton.
"I figured we just moved up here, it would be nice to put her in preschool so she could be ahead of everyone," said Gimmi.
But plans have changed. A $1 million budget deficit next school year is forcing the Steelton-Highspire school district to cut Pre-K.
"I feel sorry because she is all excited, running around, she wants to be a big girl like her sister and go to school," said Gimmi.
The district says cutting preschool would affect about 60 students. The superintendent says kindergarten will also be sliced to half a day.
"Being in the pre-K, they only learn so much, so with kindergarten being half-day, you have to find day care and they do miss out on education," said Larry Vega, a parent.
The superintendent says cutting Pre-K and going to half-day kindergarten will only save the school district $350,000 and that's not enough to solve the problem.
The superintendent says the changes could furlough four teachers and six teacher assistants. But to close the budget gap, the district could be eliminating administrators, laying off four coaches and reducing band transportation.
The district says it's considering pre-K education through the Capital Area Head Start, but in order to enroll in the program, children would have to financially qualify.
Gimmi's alternative for her daughter is home schooling using an online program but she says the downfall is she won't be able to interact with other children and follow in her big sister's footsteps.
Steelton-Highspire's superintendent says the department of education has placed the district on its financial watch list. That means the department will provide a consultant to assist the district back to solid financial ground.

As Fringe prepares to launch its fifth and final season, speculation runs wild on how the Fringe Division — or what's left of it in 2036 — will be able to save the world from the Observers, who run rampant in the future after enslaving humanity back in 2016.
"It's the worst position they've ever been in," executive producer J.H. Wyman tells TVGuide.com. "Just by the very nature of an Observer, they think much faster than you, they have abilities that you do not have. They just know more about everything, about time and space. They're going to have to really get it together to beat these guys."
Comic-Con: 8 Things to know about Fringe's fifth and final season (It's in the future!)
To refresh, the show trekked to 2036 in Season 4's 19th episode, "Letters of Transit," in which Simon (Henry Ian Cusick) and Etta (Georgina Haig), who turned out to be Olivia (Anna Torv) and Peter's (Joshua Jackson) grown-up daughter Henrietta, freed the famed Fringe team from amber in order to rid the world of the Observers.
However, bringing the team back together when the show returns doesn't guarantee it'll be as easy as solving Fringe cases have been over the last four years. As we saw in Episode 19, what lies in Walter's (John Noble) mind could be the key to their salvation; it's just getting him to remember everything that will be the tricky thing. "He's not a whole man," Noble says. "He's damaged to some degree and will be further damaged, and he needs to find a way to go back and gather everything he knows to reclaim his memory to use that to resolve the issue that we have with this common enemy. We are going to be damaged in the process. It's a war, so all of us will be damaged getting there."
Now that most of the Fringe team have been reunited — aww, Peter and his daughter Henrietta met cute last season! — it's time for Olivia to rejoin the team. The fifth season will pick up the following day after the team's train ride at the end of the Episode 19. "It's going to be a big family reunion," Jackson says. "It takes on a slightly different flavor than I think you would anticipate. It happens quite quickly off the top of the season and it's as emotional as you would imagine, but not quite the reunion that you're expecting."
Check out our complete Comic-Con coverage
That's because Olivia never wanted a child, which she explicitly said in Season 3's flash to the future, and hinted at by her big pause in the Season 4 finale just before she told Peter the news. "Probably in her mind it's, 'How can you bring in a baby when your two parents are prepared to go out and die for their job every day?'" Torv says, noting that Olivia's reunion with Henrietta might not go smoothly.
"It's like, 'Bam! Here's your 25-year-old kid,'" Torv says with a laugh. "I would love it if they just met and got on and had this awesomely close, great, loving relationship, but I have a feeling that they'll have issues to work through. It'll be interesting because we spent four years looking at this father-son dynamic, to then have a look at these two women working through the same kind of stuff."
How the Fringe team landed in amber when the Observers arrived will also be answered, but Wyman asked that fans ponder these questions before heading into the final season: "What happened?" he says. "How did they get in amber? The day the Observers arrived, what did it look like? How did Olivia and Peter and everyone get separated? Why were they all together? Why was Bell there? The history will surprise you when you realize there's a lot of emotions going on for reasons that you don't know yet, but you will."
Now that the Fringe team is trying to take down the Observers, they'll be in even more danger than we've ever seen them in before. "It's a really scary world for them out there," co-star Jasika Nicole says. "This is the first time there's a small number of good guys and a whole world of bad guys instead of the other way around, so they have to be secret, they have to go around in disguises and not be seen by the Observers because the Observers know who they are, they know that they're out of amber and they're on a mission to find them, so it's really, really scary for them, so they have to watch out for their lives while trying to save the world at the same time."
As for the series finale, Wyman says it may be left open-ended for at least some characters. "I want to feel that my questions are answered, but I feel like the characters that I love meet an end that they deserve that makes me feel good and makes me feel like, 'Wow, I've really been through something and now I understand what it was all about,'" he says. "On the other side of it, it also makes me want to feel like the next day when I get into my car, I want to feel like I can still imagine what they're doing. I can imagine there's a future and they are somewhere. That was my biggest thing."
Exclusive Fringe shocker: Executive producer Jeff Pinkner exits series
Nicole has her own theory for the end of Fringe that we hope comes true: "They very well could save the world in the future, get possession of the world back and then go back to where they were before they were ambered and live the 20 years that they didn't have a chance to live," she says. "It would be amazing for Olivia and Peter and their child. That would be so good for everybody."
Regardless of how the Fringe team bids farewell, Jackson says fans will appreciate the end of the series. "Having a general sense of where we end, I think it will be a satisfyingly unexpected ending to the whole story," he says.
The fifth and final season of Fringe premieres Friday, Sept. 28 at 9/8c on Fox

text: Four Hamline Alumni & a Former Faculty Member Were Honored for Their Outstanding Achievements and Life's Work.At Hamline University's 2011 Reunion Weekend, four College of Liberal Arts alumni and one former Hamline faculty member were honored for their outstanding contributions to society. Nancy Johnson- Distinguished Service AwardNancy Johnson, who graduated summa cum laude from Hamline in 1978 with a bachelor's degree in biology received Hamline's "Distinguished Service Award." This award is given each year to a degreed alumna/us of the college who has demonstrated distinguished dedication and service through volunteer activities at Hamline University (e.g. class agent, on boards or committees, leadership role as a volunteer, efforts on special projects.) While at Hamline, Johnson was a Presidential Scholar and was accepted into Phi Beta Kappa. She also played volleyball and basketball on some of the first post-Title IX teams on Hamline's campus. After Hamline, Nancy attended graduate school at Harvard University where she was awarded a PhD from the Committee on Immunology, Division of Medical Sciences, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Upon graduation, she worked and lived in Washington, D.C. Her work there with the Office of Research, U.S. Agency for International Development brought her to Botswana, Cameroon, Costa Rica, Estonia, Ethiopia, Hungary, Indonesia, Kenya, Morocco, Thailand, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. In 2000, Nancy returned to Minnesota for law school. She received her JD in 2005 from William Mitchell College of Law. Since 2002, she has been employed by the patent law firm of Mueting, Raasch & Gebhardt, P.A. As a registered patent attorney, she prepares and prosecutes biotechnology and biomedical patent applications for a variety of academic and industry clients. In recent years, Nancy has become extremely involved in the Hamline community, making an impact in nearly every area of the university. She is currently a class agent for the class of 1978; on the Advisory Board for Women in Philanthropy; has served as a class reunion committee member; has been part of the Alumni Career Network for six years; serves on the Board of Directors for the Piper Athletic Association; and has attended many local Hamline alumni events. Nancy currently lives in Lakeville, Minnesota and spends her free time traveling and quilting.Robert Schilling- Outstanding Achievement AwardRobert Schilling, who graduated from Hamline with a bachelor's degree in sociology in 1970 has been honored with the "Outstanding Achievement Award." This award is given annually to a degreed alumna/us of the college who has done extraordinary work in his/her field or volunteer activities. At Hamline, Schilling was a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon and was inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame as a member of Hamline's 1966 championship football team. Schilling is professor and past chair of the Department of Social Welfare within University of California, Los Angeles' Luskin School of Public Affairs. Previously, he was professor of social work at Columbia University and a social worker in child welfare and child development settings. He received his MSW from the University of Wisconsin and his PhD from the University of Washington. Schilling's research has focused on developmental disabilities, drug users, HIV/AIDS, and other sexually transmitted diseases. He was principal investigator of the New York City site of the National Institute of Mental Health Multisite HIV Prevention Trial; a more recent study evaluated a disease prevention program among commercial sex workers in China. He has published more than 120 peer-reviewed articles and is the most cited social work scholar in the HIV/AIDS area. Schilling is a fellow in the American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare. Schilling told us his wife Sheryl Miller, a Hamline graduate from 1969, is his greatest asset. Bob Packard- Making the World a Better Place AwardBob Packard, who graduated from Hamline with a bachelor's degree in Spanish and French and a minor in Latin American studies in 1966 has been honored with Hamline's "Making the World a Better Place Award." This award is given to a degreed alumna/us of the college who has made the connection between learning theory and putting it into practice and connecting the liberal arts education to his/her profession and work within the community. This person is ethical and caring and serves society. After Hamline, Packard went on to study Spanish at Boston University and taught Spanish and French in Connecticut public schools for 35 years. While teaching, Packard was also director of the World Citizen Forum Project for 32 school districts in southeastern Connecticut. A highlight of his work was arranging for the first formal contact between the United Nations Ambassadors of Egypt and Israel to meet with 200 Connecticut social studies teachers. He later testified before a Presidential Heading on the importance of an interdisciplinary approach to teaching foreign languages and social studies. These ideas were implemented through the World Citizen Forum Project with funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Connecticut Department of Education. Since retiring from teaching in 2004, he and his wife Ella Mae Littlefield moved to his wife's family farm in Maine. The Packard-Littlefield Farm is under a permanent conservation easement which will allow farming, forest products, and open spaces. Since 2007 their farm has hosted refugees from Somalia, Sudan, Uganda, and Guatemala to be trained on how to grow crops organically in a cold climate. Currently 50 refugee families participate and are in the process of being certified by the Maine Organic Farmers Association. The Packards have two daughters and four grandchildren. They have traveled extensively in retirement, most recently to Brazil and Argentina, on an agricultural tour. Nicole Sawatzke- First Decade AwardNicole Sawatzke, who graduated ten years ago in the Hamline class of 2001 received Hamline's "First Decade Award." This award goes to a degreed alumna/us of the college who has done extraordinary work in his/her field or volunteer activities within the first 10 years after graduation. Sawatzke is a television producer and writer. She received her bachelor's degree from Hamline University in English, with a journalism emphasis. With the help of Hamline faculty member David Hudson, she learned a great deal about how to write for television, a much different medium than the academic papers she'd been writing, and spent five years working in local news, before becoming a freelance producer. Since then, Sawatzke has worked on a variety of series for the Food Network, Travel Channel, DIY Network, & Discovery Channel. As the producer, Sawatzke is responsible for planning shoots, directing talent and the crew, as well as determining the story and seeing shows through the editing process. While every producing job requires the same set of skills, Sawatzke's favorite part of her career is getting immersed in subjects she may not have taken the time to learn otherwise. Sawatzke has also had the opportunity to shoot internationally for the Travel Channel in China, Thailand, Turkey & Morocco – and traveled throughout the U.S. on projects for the Food Network. When Sawatzke is in town, she said you can find her trying to remember how to play piano at MacPhail Center for Music in Minneapolis. Nicole also said she's proud of her youngest sister, Jaclyn, who a sophomore at Hamline University this fall. Richard Mulkern- Outstanding Faculty AwardRichard Mulkern, who was a faculty member, coach, and athletic director during his 29 years at Hamline, has received the "Outstanding Faculty Award." This award goes to a current or past faculty member of the college who exhibits/exhibited exemplary teaching and/or writing in his/her field, and has been involved in activities which reflect support and interest in Hamline University. During his time at Hamline, Mulkern coached 44 student All-Americans and was twice named Coach of the Year by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. Since retirement, he has maintained an active athletic life, most recently winning the silver medal at the Worlds Masters Track Championship in Sacramento, California in the discus (65-89 age group). He also set age records in the discus and shot put at the Iowa Senior Olympics and the USATF Iowa State Championships. Mulkern said, "In our lifetimes, we hope and dream that our careers will lead us to the one ultimate job and school. I was one of the lucky ones to have this dream fulfilled. Although I had some wonderful experiences and friendships at other schools, Hamline provided 29 years of unforgettable memories. I loved the heart in Hamline where the faculty's main concerns were the students and their education. I also enjoyed the camaraderie between the faculty and administration. It was a joy to go to work. Hamline was like a big family. Truly my happiest days of teaching were at Hamline. Thanks to all of you for filling my heart so full."Congratulations to all five award winners, and thank you for your amazing contributions to making our communities stronger.

It's a kidding thing. The new ELO tribute hour was orchestrated for laughs.
Electric Light Orchestra fans have a friend in Chicago radio personality Johnny Mars. At least for an hour this past Sunday they did.
There were a few moments when I first read an item on the WXRT website that Mars was set to host an exciting new weekly program starting on Sunday that I actually believed it. Then I noted the date, and realized it had to be this year's entry in the FM rocker's long history of April Fool's Day jokes.
I mentioned Mars's new show in last Friday's Slumgullion column, although I didn't yet know the name WXRT had come up with for its ruse. I toyed with the idea of somehow letting on that I knew it was a joke, but then decided not to risk spoiling the fun. It wasn't until Sunday morning that I discovered the scam show was called The Electric Light Brunch. Breakfast With The Beatles host Terri Hemmert was a good sport, excitedly hyping the new show she said would now be following hers every Sunday morning.
Mars, for his part, played it perfectly straight, explaining that each week, Electric Light Brunch would be devoted to the classically inclined rock band Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne founded in 1971. He even offered Electric Light Orchestra trivia between songs. Judging from the variety of comments on WXRT's website, some people thought Electric Light Brunch was legit, while others thought it was too easy to see through this year's trick.
Nothing against Mars, but considering the station's April Fools Day tradition, Electric Light Brunch was, well , pretty light. Years ago, WXRT claimed its Regular Guy film critic had just opened a new restaurant (with a name something like Get In Here And Eat) in the heart of downtown. Other years, the station claimed to have changed formats, and even invited dee jays from its competitors to make guest appearances.
Another year, WXRT enraged a lot of loyal followers who should have known better by announcing that Wendy Rice's popular Saturday Morning Flashback had been canned. But the best trick came the last time April 1st fell on a Sunday. Weekday morning dee jay Lin Brehmer and news anchor Mary Dixon came in and did their entire show as if it was Monday. Imagine all the hung over listeners who tuned it and thought they had slept through an entire day.
Mars actually was not the first person to spoof the Breakfast With The Beatles format. I created three short video clips called Hanging With The Hollies for the Sunday Morning Coffee With Jeff internet show. Part of the joke was checking to see where all the Hollies tribute bands would be playing that week (as Hemmert does for Beatles tribute bands) and finding out there weren't any Hollies tribute bands. Sunday Morning Coffee With Jeff is on hiatus now, but if any Hollies news breaks out, I'll be ready.

Sadly enough, my younger brother has a fart ringtone... but I am guessing that it was probably the latter thing that you said.

Was it one of these?
Note the site is .org.
I shudder to think what non-profit activities they support.
- February 3, 2010 at 5:44 PM
Damn crying baby ringtone when you've escaped to the only sanctuary possible when you've just had a newborn...the supermarket. Race out the door unprepared with your watermelon boobs -- gleeful of your 10 minutes freedom. You return with a wet t-shirt, but not the college pool party type. Although I think I made the 15 year old cashier boys day. Or ruined him for life. Either way. Classy.

It was bad enough when ringtones were loud obnoxious songs, now it's obscene sounds! Ugh!
@anon: Gotta love the milk ejection reflex. LOL Those were the days...I should have bought stock in Lansinoh. Best damn breast pads money can buy!

I have nothing to say about this - I just had to comment because it's completely ridiculous.
Who ARE these people?!
- February 3, 2010 at 7:08 PM
LOL. On the iphone there is an application called Atomic Fart. You can set the alarm to fart sounds.
You just gave me the idea of setting friends phones to fart at inopportune times.
@Doris - .org does not mean there is anything to do with a nonprofit. It's been more than 10 years since they were limited to nonprofits. Now anyone can buy one for any reason.

I have a hilarious fart ap on my Iphone. I cannot seem to get rid of the 10 year old inside me!
- February 3, 2010 at 7:14 PM
Even if they silence it, you might still get the "silent but deadly" ringtone.
- February 3, 2010 at 7:41 PM
I have a nature sounds ring that sounds like a fart. For the first two seconds it is a moose calling or frogs that sound like passing gas. I admit, it made me giggle

If the guy was that quick on his feet to come up with that excuse - he's my hero. I'm not fleet of foot with my mouth, when put on the spot.

I like it. I think I might set it for my ex-husband's number. I could use the fart sequence from Blazing Saddles!!

I have my phone set to 'toot' (thanks, fartdroid!) for everything but an actual phone call.
Including emails. Made for some giggles at the spa today >.<

Why on earth would someone want people to think they farted?

There's a gastro fellow at my hospital with fart ringtones.
- February 4, 2010 at 12:41 PM
LOL! Word verfication: "jarties"
This person needs to spend some time with my husband...that man's colon produces some of the loudest and foulest-smelling farts known to man. I keep telling him that the Army owes me (the civilian wife) hazard pay for putting up with his gas.
Your post still made me giggle. (I can't get rid of the 10 year old in me, either!)
- February 4, 2010 at 2:25 PM
This ringtone thing has gotten out of hand....a while back I was out driving and hadn't checked the gas gauge...I ended up stopping in a sketchy area to keep from running out of gas (I live in a rural area, so this place sold non-name brand gas at 50 cents a gallon more than in town). I had to go inside to pay, and since the gas pump attendant looked like a child molester, I brought my teenage daughter with me. We grabbed water and went to the counter to pay....I was surprised to see the cashier covered in tattoos and dressed literally from head-to-toe in gang banger regalia, complete with do-rag and baseball hat set at different angles on his head. Trying not to stare, I pulled my wallet out of my purse and heard the sound of a handgun priming and cocking. I shoved my daughter behind me and prepared for us both to hit the deck when I realized it was the dumbass cashier's freaking ringtone! I tossed the money at him and glared before turning to stalk out. As I was going out the door, I heard him snickering and telling the caller his phone had scared another customer. Scared? Hell, I almost peed my pants!

NEW! The ten most annoying words strung together in the English language: 'Please enjoy the music while your party is being reached.'
Whoever invented custom ringtones should be dragged out into the street and shot.

Nice story, Pete. Stick it to the man!Anychance you have the VOTC Vader? If so, could you compare it with the Chamber Vader? They look almost the same to me in pics...
I have a friend that use to work at TRU and he informed me that TRU's official policy is that the toy has to be on the floor 24 hours prior to a TRU employee purchasing it. Obviously we all know that is crock of ****. This just proves it.At least the District Manager, and the other store manager did the right thing. Personally if I was that stores direct supervisor I would have fired his ass on the spot.
Pete, just another quick question about the loose presentation of Vader. Does he sit well/steady in the seat of the chamber on his own, and how is he "held down" there, if at all?
Oh, and is the figure easy to replace in the packaging once you've opened it up? I'm definitely going to open it, but the way it looks in the package is cool too, so I was wondering if it could be "stored and displayed" without any weirdness with seams in the packaging or rips/tears/dents/etc.

D1 waste exemption: depositing waste from dredging inland waters
The D1 exemption allows you to deposit dredging spoil (dredgings) on the banks of the waters it was dredged from, and treat it by screening and removing water.
Types of activity you can carry out
These include when:
a contractor is involved in clearing silt from sections of a river and deposits the dredgings on the banks of the river
a contractor is involved in clearing silt and plant matter from sections of a canal. The contractor screens the dredgings to remove litter and then deposits the dredgings to let the water drain away. When the water has drained, the dredgings are taken away for spreading on land under an environmental permit
Types of activity you cannot carry out
You cannot:
- deposit dredgings on the bank of a different inland water or deposit dredgings from any other waters - this is to prevent the spread of contamination or invasive non-native species, and to keep outside the requirements of the Landfill Directive
- deposit dredgings that are hazardous waste - this is also to keep outside the requirements of the Landfill Directive
- treat dredgings other than by screening or removing water
Types of waste you can deposit
The waste codes are those listed in the List of Wastes (LoW) Regulations. You need to make sure your waste fits within the relevant waste code and description.
|Waste code
|Type of waste
|Dredging spoil not containing hazardous substances
Quantity of waste you can deposit
Over any 12 month period, you can deposit or treat up to 50 cubic metres of dredgings for each metre length of land on which waste is deposited.
Key conditions
The waste must be deposited as close as possible to where it was dredged from.
The waste must be deposited either:
- on the bank of the waters from where it was dredged
- or on land next to the water it was dredged from (the dredgings must be removed from the waterway and deposited mechanically in one operation)
This means that you cannot deposit onto a bank and then move it further away by the same or another machine.
What else you need to know
A river or canal may be an example of a place which can be regarded as a 'linear network' for the purpose of registering this exemption. Guidance on the meaning of place.
Non-hazardous dredgings that are deposited alongside the waterway from where they are dredged are excluded from the Landfill Directive. This can apply to dredgings placed into a lagoon.
As well as registering this exemption, you may also need to comply with other legislation. In particular, this may apply to the dredging activity itself or if you use the dredgings under the U1 exemption.
Things to check include:
- planning permission – contact your local planning authority to find out if you need to make an application
- if you are working on or near a river, flood defence or sea defence – check whether you need a flood risk activity permit
- if you are raising levels or building in the floodplain or near an ordinary watercourse, contact your lead local flood authority (County Council, Unitary Authority or Internal Drainage Board) to discuss whether you need any consent other than planning permission
Related exemptions
You can use dredgings in construction under:
You can spread plant matter that is strimmed along the banks of the river where you have cut it under:
You can spread dredgings produced from creating or maintaining habitats, ditches or ponds within parks, gardens, fields and forests only under:
- U10: spreading waste to benefit agricultural land
- U11: spreading waste to benefit non-agricultural land
Related permits
You need to apply for an environmental permit if:
- you want to treat or deposit more waste than this exemption allows
- your lagoon is not excluded from the Landfill Directive
- you want to spread dredgings to land or use dredgings in construction but cannot comply with the limits and conditions of those exemptions listed under related exemptions
Register a D1 exemption
You need to register this exemption with us if you meet the requirements.
