Family Bike Tour
Baby on Board
Determined to rediscover their adventurous, carefree selves, two cyclists take their 21-month-old son bike touring. Aside from laboring a 120-pound bike uphill at 1.8 mph, confronting the unique desperation of running out of diapers miles from nowhere, and that time the inviting, cool spring was surrounded by poison oak, things worked out just fine.

Four Great Family Vacations
How to Ride With Your Child
To my right, the North Umpqua River boomed through flat-faced whitewater and mesmerizing pools. The sun-softened asphalt beneath my wheels smelled like summer. I rode along in one of those wonderful trances cycling sometimes lulls you into, not even aware I was
pedaling uphill
, though my bike was weighted with four heavy
The hum of a truck approaching from behind shattered the moment. I focused instantly on the small orange safety flag bobbing ahead of me about 100 feet up the hill. It was attached to a double-wide Burley bike trailer pulled by my husband, Tony, who like me was also riding a fully loaded
touring bike
. In the trailer: our 21-month-old son, Oscar.
I could picture his sweet face greased with sunblock as he peered out from under the old pillowcase we'd safety-pinned to the trailer as a sunshade. He was probably gripping his stuffed monkey or the book about the caterpillar that eats too much and gets a stomachache. The truck grunted out gearshifts. My heart twinged.
The shoulder of the road we were on was so narrow that whenever traffic passed, our tires often seemed to be just inches from the steep, unforgiving drop into the river. I wanted to call out to Tony, to warn him, but even without the noise of the truck bearing down on us, he wouldn't have been able to hear me over the crashing of the water. The white cab of what turned out to be a dump truck entered my peripheral vision, and I felt pushed toward the river by a wall of air that momentarily destroyed my center of gravity. Then, all I could do was watch as the truck bore down on my baby, my husband—my everything. Then I could not watch at all.
When I opened my eyes, the truck was already out of sight far up the road, and the orange flag was dancing jauntily in the brilliant sunshine. Birds tweeted. I realized I'd been holding my breath. Again.
The three of us were on an extended bike tour that began in the driveway of our Portland, Oregon, home and took us south through the Oregon Cascades. We were aiming for Klamath Falls, near the border of California, where we'd catch an Amtrak train home after more than 500 miles of riding, much of it defined by climbing.
We were doing a self-supported tour, which meant that we'd camp and cook most meals, with the occasional motel stay and restaurant for a break. I carried panniers packed with clothes and supplies for Oscar and me, plus all our food. Tony's panniers held his clothes and our sleeping gear—plus he hauled the trailer that held Oscar and our tent.
Because we wouldn't be setting any speed records, we packed generously: a medical kit bursting at the seams with extras, dehydrated meals for emergencies, board books, two stuffed animals, whiskey, and a bottle of Sriracha. We guessed Tony's rig, including the kid, weighed at least 120 pounds.
Lucy, Oscar, and Tony, ready for whatever can't be readied for.
(Charles Gullung)
Since Tony and I had moved to Portland seven years ago, we had enjoyed a cycling life rich with experiences and adventures, from cyclocross races to overnight bike tours (in part because he makes custom bike frames for a living). We'd even ridden a big, multi-day, self-supported tour together. More than a year before Oscar was born, we decided to ride from Klamath Falls to South Lake Tahoe to meet my family, which was vacationing there. We assumed that riding five consecutive 80- to 100-mile days on fully loaded bikes was doable, including a little jaunt to 8,512 feet in Lassen National Park. It wasn't. My quads were painfully tender from day two until we reached the lake. I fell apart. Tony lost his cool. I cried. Tony apologized.
Yet, I still remember vividly how, as we rode through California's fertile farmland, I started to think about wind and rain from a farmer's perspective, inhabiting a world I otherwise never would have. And we'd slip into friendly exchanges with strangers everywhere from city parks to grocery stores; our bikes were instant conversation starters. The trip was a marriage tester, but even so it reinforced for us the richness of experiencing the world from the saddle of a bicycle.
When I found out I was pregnant, I was terrified. Would I be forced to give up having bicycle adventures and lose all that rich perspective? The answer was yes. Just a year and a half into parenthood, I longed for the unscripted life we had enjoyed. Our daily life had become filled with daring exploits such as pureeing homemade baby food. It felt like the cyclists we'd been were almost like old, close friends who had died and needed to be mourned.
In his own way, Tony was facing the identity crisis of being a new parent, and when we started talking about how we were feeling, we decided that a family bike tour was the kind of bold move that would help us reconnect with our spontaneous and audacious selves. We had no idea if Oscar would put up with all the time in the trailer, but there was only one way to know. For all we knew, Oscar might find such joy in seeing sunrises and sunsets outdoors that he'd never mind giving up luxuries like regular hot baths and cold milk.
About an hour after the dump truck had passed, the heat surged. We stopped at the first convenience store we'd seen in two days, which was, as far as we could tell, the only one for 30 more miles.
At our current pace, we wouldn't reach the store farther up the road until the following day around lunchtime. On any other bike tour, that wouldn't have been a problem. This place was stocked with jerky and mac-n-cheese, the kind of food that can fuel a tour across a continent. But this trip was different. We'd been rolling along with only three diapers, a precarious supply that could last anywhere from two to 24 hours, depending on what came out of our son. My internal warning buzzers had been sounding for some time. Sirens blared when Tony stepped out of the dark doorway into the parking lot where I was waiting and muttered, "They don't have any diapers."
Oscar's commentary on everything from roadside cows to familiar books in strange places—"wow!"—captured the joy of discovering the unknown together.

Why do we ride?? Ask Lucy. It's great to read about Candelara and Froome, but their riding is different. Mine - including the awe over open spaces - is more like Lucy's, if maybe not quite so lyrical. Congratulations Lucy, and Bicycling, for a sparkling glimpse of True Life, as seen only from the saddle. A great and very well-told story.

BIRDLAND – Falcons offensive tackle Andrew Jackson spent five years with Pat Hill, the Falcons
new offensive line coach, when in college at Fresno State.
Jackson was redshirted and played for four seasons. He was selected by the Falcons in the seventh round (210th overall) of the 2011 NFL draft.
"Pat Hill is a great coach," Jackson said on Wednesday. "He's a very passionate coach. He can bring a lot to our offensive line. I look forward to it and I hope we are very receptive of him and that we take our offensive line play to the next level."
Other offensive linemen have asked Jackson what they should expect from their new position coach, who was fired after going 4-9 last season at Fresno State.
"I've talked to a couple of the other guys about him, the number one thing is his passion," Jackson said. "He coaches with passion. He's an aggressive coach, but his intentions are to help you build and improve as a player. He's very clear with his style. I think that he will bring a new skill set to us, which will benefit us in the long run."
Jackson was a part of the group representing the Falcons at the State Capitol in support of a concussion awareness bill that's making its way through the legislature.
"It was very interesting to watch the procedures and all of that," Jackson said. "I fully support this bill and the intentions of it. It's a great cause. It's a protective measure. There is not really a good reason to not take protective measures and use precaution to help [guarantee] the safety of these kids."
Jackson was released by the team on the final cut on Sept. 3. He was re-signed the next day to the practice squad. He was placed on the practice-squad injured reserve on Nov. 22.
Hill spent 15 seasons as the head coach at Fresno State, where he led the Bulldogs to a 112-80 overall record and went to 11 bowl games.
Hill was let go with two years left on a three-year extension signed after the 2009 season. He was owed about $512,000.
Hill led Fresno State to 15 wins over Bowl Championship Series teams over the last decade, which is the highest win total of any non-BCS team in the nation.
Hill has NFL experience. Prior to becoming the head coach at Fresno State, Hill spent five seasons as the tight ends and offensive line coach with the Cleveland Browns from 1992 to 1995 under Bill Belichick. In 1996, he joined the Baltimore Ravens and spent one season coaching the tight ends and offensive line before moving on to Fresno State.

Be interesting to see how Pat Hill motivates the guys and also who Dimitroff gives him to mold. I still suspect that we get a OL with our 2nd round pick.

Hill will be a nice change for sure as Paul B. seems to have lost the passison that Andrew Jackson speaks of and with the showing against N.O. an N.Y. we need to make some aggressive changes.

Dispite the PR blurb he is a tight end coach not an OL coach. He is going to struggle and Ryan will be on IR before week 5

IF the Falcons can build a solid OLine, Dline(or figure out some way to put more pressure, faster, on the oppossing QB), and get some different looks to their running attack, then the 2012 season MIGHT be the one.

Dled I know it's early but who do you think the Falcons will target in free agency? I think it is given on the O-Line but how much cap space will we have?

I hope Ryan is somewhere looking for some game. He needs to do better this year or get someone in who can. We have the Cowboys, Broncos, Giants, Raiders, Cardinals at home this year, he needs to do better.
February 9th, 2012
2:59 pm
We don't need another season with OL learning (DP), we need to pick up 5-FA, very good ones available. An G, G/C (or sign Mac to a 1 year deal) NT,/DT, DE and DB. Those 5 FA and then draft for future and we should get closer to the big dance if not dancing in Feb 20131. Clean cut is good for the franchise but finds some boys with some dirt under their nails that doesn't mean trouble makers just some Sunday Warriors!
February 9th, 2012
4:51 pm
Do you have any idea if and when you'll actually be able to talk to Pat Hill? I'd be interested to hear his thoughts on the line.
February 9th, 2012
5:44 pm
Sounds encouraging, coming from a player who spent five years under his coaching.
Of course, it's coming from a guy who hasn't spent much time on the field, as a Falcon.
I like Jackson, and I hope he can stay well enough to see what he's got…
February 9th, 2012
6:44 pm
We need replacements desperately on the OL & DL. Also a TE. We need ones that are good enough to cost some big money. To get that money, we will have to release some of our higher paid guys. Hopefully if we release some of our better guys we will get a trade or draft pick. We have to release guys where we don't lose too much using the backups we have. My suggestions are Abe. Use his money and a little more to go after a great DE or DT thru FA. Let Ovie go. Let Turner go or trade him replacing him with Snelling & Quizz. Trade R. White and keep H. Douglas.
Keep Dunta. Give him another chance with the new DC. Cost too much to let him go. Franchise Grimes for a year and see how he plays in Nolans scheme.
Just a few ideas I had. Some OK and some are going out on a limb. What do you think?
February 9th, 2012
7:08 pm
PlanB are you kidding me. You don't get ride of your best past rusher to try and sign another pass rusher. Ovie should go, turner needs to go and you don't get ride of your best WR in White. Yes he is still the best WR on the team. Grimes is gone he can not play press coverage, its that simple. Dunta will be a beast in press.OOOh Snelling is gone too. We need more speed there.
February 9th, 2012
7:12 pm
You can add 50 to that list of see ya, I think that is why they drafted Dent in the 3rd last year.As good as Loften is he can't cover ANYONE! Then it becomes all about the MONEY!!
February 9th, 2012
7:37 pm
So pretty much the same thing as last year. Abe, sacks on the mediocre teams. Turner up the middle getting large gaines against the mediocre teams, leaving Snelling and Quizz on the sideline. 300 plus carries per year.
Where do we get all the money to spend on OL & DL? We have several we have drafted. Maybe some will be OK. I hope. Another year of I hope. What's your idea, Ct38.
February 9th, 2012
8:17 pm

February 10th, 2012

Key year coming for Falcons. Make or break for Smith and Ryan. Turner,Baker, and Ovie need to go. Keep Snelling and Rogers. Move Dunta to safety, keep Grimes and Moore. Peria Jerry useless–needs to go. Lofton costs too much and Decoud not a playmaker. That is a lot of things to fix.
February 10th, 2012

Jim, you're an idiot.
February 10th, 2012
8:24 am
Thanks Tater for all you and your guys do.
Agreeing with jim. Make or break year for Smith. He is too conservative to run the OC and the offense. We gave away many picks to get JJ. That can only mean we are going to a passing oriented offense. Turner with 2 yrs left on contract needs to be traded. Someone said we could get a 4 in the draft. Great. Get the mothballs off of Snelling and Quizz. Snelling plays with heart and has always done a great job every time he is asked. In my earlier post I forgot to mention getting rid of Baker, Jerry and Weems. That also, will free some money up.
February 10th, 2012
9:12 am
Ryan is not a mobile quarterback, As a result, he needs
good protection in order to have a chance of completing
his passes. He can not throw "on the run" with accuracy,
In order for the Falcons to maximize their investments in
Ryan and Julio, the number one priority should be pass
blocking for the new OL coach. If not, the draft picks utilized
for Ryan and Jones can be considered an exercise in futility.
February 10th, 2012
9:25 am
The Falcons could have gone to a HBCU and easily found
a free agent as good or better than Baker. These players
are apparently off the radar for the Falcons. Some may be
worth a look.
February 10th, 2012
9:47 am
The offensive line will be better this year, how much?who knows! ATLANTA needs to get OL, RB, DE, out of free agency. And not just one, but maybe two or three.
As far as the draft, being in the 2nd round-get the best player available and develop him. New York went after free-agents this past year and did an outstanding job- Why can't Atlanta?
As far as Roddy White-keep him, don't let him get away. Snelling -keep him, don't let him get away.
Abe-keep him-don't let him get away. Todd McClure-keep him-don't let him get away. Harry Douglas-keep him-don't let hime get away, Eric Weems-keep him -don't let him get away.
Keep if you can- Thomas Decoud, James sanders, Brent Grimes, Kory Biermann.
Bring In-If you can-Demetrius Bell, Jared Gaither and/or Adam Goldberg(Offensive line)
Bryan Scott or Gabriel Wilson( Strong Safety)
Cortlan Finnegan, Tim Jennings or Rashaan Mathias(Cornerbacks)
Robert Mathias, Cliff Avril, Marcus Bernard or Calais Campbell (Defensive End)
Justin Forsett, Tashard Choice or Spencer Larson (Running backs)
Keep the tight ends as much as possible and draft a tight end (Orson Charles, maybe). Be willing to spend the $$'s this year and get the right players! Atlanta has over-spent on some free agents acquisition, so more scrutiney by all the staff and Mr. Blank would be necessary to ensure they are getting the right person.
I'm confident this year free agency will be different with Mr. Blank, it was good to see the disgust and fire in his eyes during the press interview. Atlanta has an owner who has a "set" and will not let personalities get in the way of getting the best and right players for Atlanta. He was instrumental in building a company such as "Home Depot" where he made hard but deliberate decisions to grow and I'm for one, glad he is at the helm of ATLANTA!
I get the feeling from Mr.Blank It's, time for the players and coaches to produce at a high level, or he will find some other person who will! It's time to make a hard run into the play-off's and hopefully the Super Bowl! It was done in 1998 and it can be done now!
Smitty is the right coach and I like Thomas D., but it's time for players-not building- you bring proven veterans in- draft to your future needs and give the new players time to develop and take over the role once the veterans are gone.
February 10th, 2012
10:13 am
i will defer to the falcon front office to do what they can do to address the needs for the team.with that said, baker needs to move on, tight end rookie to understudy tony,along with palmer. with the changes in coaches a wait and see if some players respond positively to new systems.

To Jalan67 at 9:47am -
Agree with all except Weems, DeCoud, and Smith. I do believe Smith will be gone this time next year without marked improvement in several areas including pass protection and pass defense/pass rush.
February 10th, 2012
11:24 am
Very disappointed in Weems this year. Too many fair catches and too many times watching the ball bounce deeper and deeper into our territory (2nd Saints game and also Giants playoff game). The guy is very talented but he was playing scared this year. Cmon man.
February 10th, 2012
12:22 pm
For all u people wanting to franchise Brent Grimes, are u smoking crack? U cannot pay that man $10.5 mil for one season. No way, no how!!! He is not that good.
February 10th, 2012
2:22 pm
That Jackson is one giant hunk of cheese. Maybe Hill can keep him healthy. We need all the O line we can get for this upcoming TRYOUT for offensive linemen.
February 10th, 2012
3:49 pm
How do we fix all the obvious holes without gutting the entire team and setting us back 3to5 years. Front Office. Please don't trade anymore 1st round draft picks. Are there any FALCONS willing to restructure your contact? We need dominant DT an 2 decent OLs Make 1a LT and let Sam Baker see how it feels to be sacked. Don't overpay Grimes orMcClure but try to keep. Restructuring Abe Turner D.Robinson, might help with free-agents. We need major tweek, not starting over. Love the different opinions on this blog.
February 10th, 2012
4:07 pm
I just cancelled my season tickets after 12 seasons as a season ticket holder. I encourage others who have gotten hoodwinked and jipped by this truly pathetic excuse for an NFL organization to do just the same. I've written it several times on this blog, and Blank ought to appreciate this: if I go to Home Depot and purchase faulty product or get bad service, HD ceases getting my business, and I take my hard earned dollars over to Lowes. Football should be no different. You can call me a bandwagon fan or a fair weather fan, but I call myself a smart, discerning consumer who seeks to punish a former vendor due to consistently substandard results. In my case I will put $2,800 back into my pocket for 2012. Now I want you to think about that little stunt you pulled in January, Falcon players and management, when you are repeatedly subjected to the NFL blackout rule in 2012. You will hopefully look back and say, "we should have put more effort into our performance, should have been better prepared and given our customers more."

Coach Hill
Hope you can make a Silk Purse out of A Sows Ear. Good Luck and hope you can fire -up this next group of OLs. I also hope you get some input into 2012 Draft. Which direction are we going? Pass,Run, or Balance? Can't wait for your interview.

No hope for next year. Bye Dimitroff, Smith !

5 years ago, I told everyone that Fresno would bypass Boise as the new power, but that never came to pass. Fresno played a much harder schedule, but also recruited way better athletes than Boise.
This is no indication as to whether Coach Hill can coach O-line in the league. He seems like a good man.
I hope he does well for (us).

James……….Mr Blank is no longer assotiated with Home Depot. When he was there, they ran a fine store. Best owner we have had in this town since Ted! There are a thousand stories, none relevant to football. I no longer go to Lowes, they lied to me about a credit card promotion. Who cares? Lets talk football and support our Falcons.

Colorful Entry Doors: Yellow, Blue, Pink, Green & Purple
Inspiration Roundup
Whether the entry door is a touch of color against a neutral background or part of a continuing blast of color for a modern home, the exterior door is a guest's first impression of what is to be discovered inside the house. In a block of homes, the bright door usually stands out amongst the rest. Growing up in a traditional neighborhood, I stand neutral when seeing a bright red door against a white exterior. However, my interest is sparked in seeing examples of other colors used in various styles and locations of homes.
We could generalize and say that certain color exterior doors reflect particular parts of the country or particular styles, but we would easily be proven wrong. Even though we used to associate a red door with a traditional aesthetic, different styles of red doors are often used in modern architecture.
What color is your exterior entry door? Would you go for something bold and bright?

My house is a terracotta color. I transformed my front door from plain white to bright turquoise (leaving all the rest of the trim, including the door trim, white). It perks up my entire house and I love it!
My new house is fairly modern in style, and currently painted a dark red. The previous owners painted the front door to match the house and installed a beige storm door as well. I would like to lose the storm door and give the front door a fresh coat of paint, but am not sure what color. I would like to repaint the house someday, but that is not in the budget right now. Any ideas for a good door color, to pop against a dark red house?
Recently painted our bungalow brick red with gray and white trim and a yellow door. Love the door. It's my favorite part of the exterior.
Amarie: What about an apple green? Very deliciously unexpected in my opinion. Or even a bright yellow? I'm still working on my front door. I painted it a bright orange, but didn't like it. Now it's yellow, but not bright enough for me.
My door is currently a medium brown (and covering up what was apparently mauve at some point). It looks bland bland bland against the light beige brick and brown trim. I'd like to do something bold--am thinking maybe a deep red to pick up on the dark brownish red specks in the bricks. Or perhaps even a deep purple.
Love the green. We have a white house with white front door.The door is new & I can t wait to paint it. I'd like a teal blue gray but DH isn't sold on that.
Greenish house (somewhere between teal and forest green) with white trim, black shutters, and a black door. I like it, even if it's not "colorful". I have heard that every house should have three colors seen from the curb -- and ONLY 3. Since the trim and shutters were a given, and a white door would (to me) have looked strange, black was the answer. If you don't go with that color theory, I might have chosen a red-orange, althought that seems very holly-berry in the context of the other colors.
There is a cute little Tudor home in my neighborhood painted off-white as is its front door. It makes the entire house blend together. I've jokingly told my girlfriend I'm going to paint their door in the middle of the night to make the house look more interesting.
I absolutely love the violet door with the flowers to match! The front door really makes a statement. It's a greeting to your guests, as well as an expression of the warmth of the people inside. My house is up for sale right now, but I hope my next house will be one that I can fully express myself with an outragiously bright door.
Where can I find this front door (Lime Green Front Door next to Stair Case)? Or does anyone know what the style is called? Thanks for all of your help.

The committee, headed by Residence Hall Senator Mart Robertson, was formed last week to look into the status of the diversity requirement that was passed in -96-'97 by the Student Senate. "Everybody and anybody that starts school in the fall of 2000 is required to have a diversity class," said Iris Mabrey, an administrative assistant in academic advisement. The requirement is applicable to all new freshmen or transfer students beginning this semester. Many senators were surprised that the diversity requirement had already been instituted. "1 worked in student recruitment where we schedule the freshmen orientations," Robertson said. "We go over all the requirements for freshmen to graduate and this year that included the diversity requirement." Orientations are not required for OS00 DDQD8 QIIEDQISD! Davis campus enrollment could climb to 10,000 in 30 years. By Leo Tyson Dirr special assignments editor The Signpost Weber State University administrators are positioning the institution to take advantage of a population boom in Davis County, which WSU President Paul Thompson calls "clearly the most under served county along the Wasatch Front." WSU's Davis campus infrastructure master plan calls for the construction of eight buildings, which could accommodate 10,000 students, in phases over the next 30 years. About 3.000 students now take classes in Davis County. The first building could be on the university's property in Layton. south of Hill Air Force Base, as early as 2003. While groups asking for state money for big building projects always struggle to convince the Utah Legislature the money would best be spent on them. WSU officials have the support of county civic and business leaders. The Utah Board of Regents has listed WSU's plans for expansion as one of the Regents' commitments. "My guess is that we will be able to grow in Davis County as fast as we want to," Thompson said. Funny he should mention growth, since growth is the impetus behind the proposed expansion. Davis County's population increased nearly 25 percent, from 188,470 to 235,438, in the 1990s, according to population estimates from the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget. But more people have not translated into a proportional number of additional degree programs.Davis County's 240,000 plus people have 18 degree programs to choose from within the county. That works out to roughly 13,000 people for every program. By contrast, Weber County has about 2,000 residents for every degree program offered in its boundaries. This disparity has forced many Davis County residents to drive to WSU's Ogden campus or to University of Utah's Salt Lake City campus, even though WSU has "They have to be kidding, I didn't even know they were teaching diversity classes. I'm going to be here until I'm 100." Troy Fullmer WSU freshman freshmen however, according to Robertson. Robertson settled the issue in Senate simply by pointing out the requirements on Page 38 in the WSU catalogue. The Senate isn't the only one surprised by the new requirement. Many students aren't aware that the new requirement exists. "They have to be kidding," said freshman Troy Fullmer. "I didn't even know they were teaching diversity classes. I'm going-to be here until I'm 100." Mabrey said that students could learn about the requirements from material printed in both the fall course listings and in the 2000-2001 catalogue. Otherwise, a student could learn about the requirement from academic advising or from their major advisers. 'The WSU catalogue is like a bible for college," Robertson said. Classes that count toward the diversity credit come from areas all over campus including the anthropology, English, geography, history and sociology departments. Only one class from the list is necessary to fulfill the requirement. The first university to institute the diversity requirement as part of its curriculum was the University of Utah. In recent weeks, a diversity ad hoc committee that includes student body presidents of all Utah universities has been attempting to make the diversity requirement a statewide standard. Part of this statewide initiative is to cultivate understanding between cultures. Everardo Martinez-Inzunza addressed the diversity ad hoc committee last month to say that there are many forces pushing multicultural students out of Utah. These included an unfriendly environment and a lack of supporting activities for students of diverse backgrounds. .fetCm-. &s 4 ?v 4c y ? Davis campus Director Bruce Davis points out the property lines of the future campus. The greenhouses behind him mark where the first buildings will be built. a campus in Layton and U of U has one in Bountiful. "What becomes more and more clear is that-with the traffic problems, students want to go to school closer to their homes," Thompson said. Another reason WSU needs to expand its facilities and class offerings in Davis County is that the Ogden campus' infrastructure does not have much room to accommodate growth, he said. Anyone who has ever tried to park on the Ogden campus can testify to that. Traffic on Harrison Boulevard gets downright ugly at certain times of the day. Judy Hurst, assistant dean of student affairs, said Davis County students would benefit from a more centralized campus than the one they have. Fewer than half the students who take classes in Davis County take them at the Davis campus, which has only five classrooms. Many students take classes at area high schools in the evenings. Many of those students do not know about the services, such as the computer lab and bookstore, available on the Davis campus. Hurst said. See Davis page 3

What The Papers Say - 28 November
A round-up of Wednesday's local and national newspapers.
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
DAVID MOYES insists Everton must help Nikica Jelavic to rediscover his cutting edge – by providing the Croatian striker with better service.
The 27-year-old has struggled to hit top form in recent weeks, and seems some way off the instinctive predator who marked his arrival last season with 11 goals in 16 games.
Moyes would like to add more depth to his striking options in January, but retains faith in the former Rangers hit-man and believes the goals will return for him – but improving defensively is just as vital.
"We've maybe not given him (Jelavic) as quite as good service as we did earlier in the season," he said. "I don't think we're playing any differently, we're just not socring the goals from the good play.
"We're probably as attacking and open as we were. In the end we haven't defended well enough just to get us a 1-0 win or a 2-1 win. It's left us a bit nervy and a bit anxious when we've not done it."
Jelavic will lead the line again tonight against Arsenal, with Darron Gibson also likely to be involved after training for the previous few days – even if he is lacking match practise.
Belgian forward Kevin Mirallas, who is recovering from a hamstring strain suffered against Sunderland, has not trained however, and remains a doubt for the Gunners clash.
"Gibson has been training but he has been out three months," said Moyes. "Kevin hasn't trained."
DAVID MOYES will not discuss his new Everton deal until after the January transfer window has closed.
The Blues boss wants to see that the club will resist offers for key players like Marouane Fellaini, while also allowing him to strengthen in order to keep their Champions League dream alive before he begins talks over his own future.
Moyes, whose side host Arsenal at Goodison tonight, still believes his team can make the top four this season, but will not commit until the club has weathered January unscathed with signs of intent also evident.
He said: "I would probably wait until we have got over January and see how things go. I want to see what we're going to do, where the club are looking to move to in the future. That's what I'm really looking for as well. It's probably going to be after the New Year before (we speak).
"We've got a good team, it's taken a long time to get to this sort of point but what we're looking to do at Everton is see if we can get to the point where it's easy to keep all your good players.
"That obviously means getting to the summit or getting around the summit. I think most people would look and say the Everton job looks a though it is a good job."
Moyes believes the new improved TV deal which Everton are set to receive along with other Premier League clubs next summer could make the Blues more attractive to new owners, but in the short term he is confident this season's top league places are still wide open.
"It might help get rid of some of our debt problems but I would hope it makes Everton a really good looking club, an attractive proposition," he said.
"I think most teams will find it hard to get ahead of the top three of Man United, Man City and Chelsea, but football changes very quickly.
"A couple of defeats for them and wins for someone else could completely alter things. It's the same every season. Four weeks ago everyone was asking whether Man United could catch Chelsea, they were so far away, but that's changed quickly. No-one is in or out at the moment."
HE MIGHT not turn to him directly for career guidance – but David Moyes certainly finds Arsene Wenger inspirational as he ponders his own future.
The Everton boss insists that – in relative terms – both managers should be judged not on trophies in the cabinet, but rather on the legacies they have created in North London and Merseyside.
Tonight's meeting arrives at a point when the two stalwarts find their futures subject to more conjecture than ever, with their teams separated by a solitary point in the Premier League.
Both their clubs sit outside the top four with aspirations of swiftly forcing their way back into the mix, although in the background uncertainty mounts over whether they will remain in charge next season.
But Moyes believes that Wenger, the only manager along with Alex Ferguson who has been in charge of a top flight club longer than himself, must be the favourite to defy the doubters and keep Arsenal among the elite once again.
"I think Arsenal are actually in the batch above us," says the Blues boss.
"They've done it and never been out of the Champions League for over 10 years.
"Arsenal and Arsene Wenger have done it. I would put them as favourites to join those other three teams because they have done it before and they have been consistent over the years.
"Arsene has done a great job getting them in the Champions League every year. Of course their supporters want trophies – but you look at their stadium and it is unbelievable. Only one or two clubs in the country would not be envious of that stadium.
"He has put down something that is going to be there for a long, long time. Arsene is part of that.
"He has seen the club through the transition from Highbury to The Emirates and continually got a team that has made the Champions League.
"Okay, they've not won the league or cups in recent years but they have always been up there."
Moyes celebrated his 10th anniversary at Everton in March, with Wenger clocking 16 years in charge of the North London club, and the Scot believes some supporters get bored with that level of familiarity in the dug-out.
"Supporters might decide they want a change from managers who have been there a long time but I think that's wrong because you are not going to get any stability at the club and will probably waste a lot of money chopping and changing all the time," he says.
"Arsene can go as long as he wants. Arsene Wenger will be the one who decides what he does at Arsenal. I don't think it will be the board or the supporters.
"I wouldn't say he is someone I would go to (to discuss his future), but I see him now and again at games and saw him a couple of times in Poland. I think Arsene's done a great job at Arsenal. Incredible.
"I know that there's been people who have come in and won cups elsewhere. Jose Mourinho was sensational and we know Alex. Arsene Wenger is in there as well.
"What he has done can't be done in a year or two years by any manager. We'd all like to reconstruct a club quickly but it just can't be done. It's quite easy to deconstruct one quickly if you don't make the right appointments and you keep chopping and changing."
Some Gunners fans refuse to accept that qualification for the Champions League is good enough, but Moyes believes that getting within touch distance of that tournament's group stages was one of his finest achievements.
"I didn't get a trophy to run round Goodison with when we made the Champions League. It nearly felt like that," he says.
"I knew if we'd got through the qualifier it might have changed Everton's world. It might only have changed it for a couple of years but it might have given us that notch and the money we might have taken that one year.
"So by continuing to get in the Champions League, it keeps funding what you are going to try and do for the next year or two because the money at that level is far greater than anything else.
"I don't know how much you get for winning the League Cup but it's not going to be much is it? You get the silverware which we all want but if you asked do you want to win the League Cup with no dough or is it better to be in the Champions League with the cash, I bet you it's a question a lot of supporters might find difficult to answer."
Arsenal were the last team to beat the Toffees at Goodison in the league, last March.
Since then they are 10 unbeaten on home turf and although a run of one win in their last seven matches has curtailed what was a promising start to the campaign, Moyes is confident it has given them a platform on which to build their season.
"We are going to try to push," adds Moyes. "A club like Everton are not out of their depth in Europe and we have to try to push to do that as we've missed out the last couple of years.
"If you measured us last year you would say we were rubbish this time last year.
"And this time last season Arsenal were not doing very well and they went on to finish in the top four."
David Moyes will wait to see how the January transfer window plays out before opening talks over a new Everton contract.
But even though the Toffees boss wants to assess the direction his club is ready to take in the long term before committing long-term, he still believes he has one of the best jobs in football.
Moyes has barely six months left on his current deal, but as he prepares to pits his wits against Arsenal's Arsene Wenger - who with Sir Alex Ferguson are the only two managers to still be serving at their club longer than Moyes - on Wednesday, he insisted he is comfortable with the position.
"I would probably wait until we have got over January and see how things go. I want to see what we're going to do, where the club are looking to move to in the future," he explained.
"And that's what I'm really looking for as well. It's probably going to be after the New Year before we speak."
Moyes has been at Goodison for 10 years, and in Wednesday night's opposite number Wenger he will see a manager who can show how it is possible to continue to motivate players over an even longer period.
But when asked if he would seek advice from the man who has been at Arsenal for more than 16 years, the Blues boss admitted it is difficult to speak to rival managers about his own club.
"It's very hard to go to people to talk to about the job here. I think most people would look and say the Everton job looks as though it is a good job," he explained.
"We've got a good team, but what we're looking to do at Everton is see if we can get to the point where it's easy to keep all your good players. That obviously means getting to the summit or getting around the summit."
Moyes also accepts that - as Wenger has been forced to endure in recent years - he could well face the anger of fans, who he suspects simply grow bored of the same face at the helm year-in and year-out.
"I think supporters do get bored when a manager has been in a job a long time. Supporters might decide they are getting bored and they want a change," Moyes admitted.
"But I think that's wrong, because you are not going to get any stability at the club and will probably waste a lot of money chopping and changing all the time.
"Look at what Arsene has done, it's a remarkable job. Of course their supporters want trophies, but look at the money he has raised by being so consistently in the Champions League.
"He has probably financed their stadium and it is unbelievable. Only one or two clubs in the country would not be envious of that stadium, so he has put down something that is going to be there for a long, long time.
"I don't know how much you get for winning the League Cup, but it's not going to be much, is it?
"You get the silverware which we all want but if you asked do you want to win the League Cup with no dough or is it better to be in the Champions League with the cash, I bet you it's a question a lot of supporters might find difficult to answer.
"The Champions League money keeps you at that higher level, keeps you in there, so is it better to win a trophy or to be so consistent and keep the finances at the level you want?"
Moyes will have Marouane Fellaini back from suspension against Arsenal and there is a chance Darron Gibson will be on the bench, but Kevin Mirallas is still suffering from a hamstring injury.
Everton and Arsenal face competition from Sevilla and Inter Milan for Schalke midfielder Lewis Holtby, 22, who is out of contract in the summer.

Who Are We?
The Minnesota Magic is a wheelchair power soccer team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Minnesota Magic is one of the youngest teams in the USPSA (United States Power Soccer Association) league, and against all odds httas won 1st place in the national USPSA Power soccer "Champions Cup" tournaments in 2010, 2011, & 2012.

The Minnesota Magic is proud to represent our state, & would like to thank our family, friends, fans, & you for your continued support.
What Is Power Soccer?US Power Soccer Asoc
Power Soccer is the first competitive team sport designed and developed specifically for people of all ages and genders who use a power wheelchair. Participants include people with quadriplegia, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, head trauma, stroke, spinal cord injury and other disabilities.
Power Soccer is the fastest growing sport for power wheelchair users. It combines the skill of the person with the speed and power of the chair, to create a fun, competitive, and accessible opportunity to play the most popular sport in the world, soccer. The rules are similar to outdoor soccer with a few modifications. The game is played in a gymnasium on a regulation basketball court.
Two teams of four athletes on each team in power wheelchairs attack, defend, and spin-kick a larger 13-inch soccer ball attempting to score goals, just like regular soccer.
The sport was originally developed in France in the early 1970's and was introduced to the United States in the early 1980's. Since then many countries created their own version of the sport which led to an international meeting in Paris, France 2005. It was the vision of the six countries that attended to create an international organization and unify the rules for international competition. The international organization, Federation Internationale de Powerchair Football Association (FIPFA) was born. This development led to the formal organization of the United States Power Soccer Association (USPSA) in 2006.

Following a recent Sunday worship service, our family headed to a local Chinese restaurant to enjoy the lunch buffet. After filling ourselves with the tasty cuisine, our server left us the check along with the traditional treat of a fortune cookie for each patron.
On such occasions, we usually take turns reading out loud the slip of paper we pull from the clutches of our little packaged dessert -- not because we give any credence to those sayings, but simply because we get a laugh from the appropriateness or inappropriateness of the revealed proverb or prediction.
The fortune I received was more specific than most, giving rise to a comment from my grandson, "Now that's a good one!"
It instructed: "Remember three months from this date. Good things are in store for you."
Needless to say, I'm not marking my calendar and waiting with great anticipation to see what wonderful experiences will unfold for me on Dec. 2.
It will likely come and go with no recollection of this prediction. It's probable that I will be enjoying some "good things" that day, but I will give the credit for any such blessings to God, not to a random reading at a restaurant.
Anyway, my son-in-law received the exact same fortune, along with no telling how many other patrons in that establishment.
Whether we're looking ahead three months or three years, we like to think that the sentiment expressed on that paper will be true -- "Good things are in store for you."
When the future appears very uncertain or rather bleak, we hold onto the hope that we will be able to enjoy positive experiences and some degree of blessing in those days to come.
Those who put their faith in Christ can have such hope. It's not based on wishful thinking or on the unreliable words found in a fortune cookie. Our hope for a good future is based on the promises of God.
He assures us of His constant presence, that He will never leave us or forsake us. If we've got God with us, that's a good thing no matter what else may be going on in our lives.
The Lord further promises to provide for the needs of those who put Him first. He pledges to watch over us and take care of us as we travel through all the valleys and over the mountains on the pathway of life. He blesses us with the peace of knowing that our sins are forgiven, along with the joy of serving as one of His ambassadors in this world.
This doesn't mean that we won't face our share of hard times. The Bible promises us tribulation and persecution too.
But even during the tough times, there will always be good things and blessings for which we can be thankful.
Although we experience the fulfillment of that promise in this life, the concept that "good things are in store for you" is even truer for us when we reach the end of our earthly journey.
The Bible only gives us a glimpse into what is awaiting us, but we know that it will be an existence better than we can imagine. Among other things it will include being with Jesus, worshiping Him, fellowshipping with Him and other believers, and reigning with Him forever and ever.
So I'm not sure what might be happening to me on Dec. 2. However, I and all God's children can be confident that good things truly are in store for us in this life. And even better things are in store for us in heaven.

Capitol View Commentary: Friday, February 17, 2012
By Pat Nolan, Senior Vice-President, DVL Public Relations & Advertising
February 17, 2012
Early voting has begun for our presidential preference primary to culminate on Election Day, Tuesday, March 6. So is this finally Tennessee's chance for a moment of fame in selecting a presidential nominee? Perhaps, but our moment in the spotlight for Super Tuesday could come late and go by quickly. Here's why it looks that way right now.
So far only the Super PAC affiliated with Mitt Romney has come to Tennessee and purchased air time for commercials (and I am told they are purchasing more next week). After losing all three primaries and caucuses on February 7 to Rick Santorum (and just barely squeaking by Ron Paul in the week-long Maine caucus) Team Romney seems to be deciding to use its huge advantage in money and organization by trying to compete everywhere it can (and that could be in a lot of places on Super Tuesday with 9 othee states besides Tennessee holding elections that day). The questions are will the Romney campaign itself buy TV time here or make any candidate appearances?
As for Romney's rivals, Newt Gingrich who mentioned the Volunteer State a couple of weeks ago as a "key element" in his "southern strategy" to revitalize his campaign, has so far only asked for TV rates in some local markets, making no buys yet (although that could change in an instant). The same for Santorum, although I have not heard his campaign has even looked at TV ad rates here.
Gingrich is set to come to Tennessee on February 27 for a fundraiser in Franklin and perhaps to meet with the media. Santorum is coming to Chattanooga on February 25 to speak to a Tea Party Forum. Without spending any time or money here, the latest poll (American Research Group) shows the former Pennsylvania Senator ahead in the Volunteer State with support from 34% of those responding to 27% for Romney, 16% for Gingrich 16% and 13% for Paul.
I would predict that Santorum's support is coming from the same groups of voters he has enlisted in other states, specifically social conservatives and evangelicals. They tend to build their political support with effective, but lower profile efforts, on the internet and social media and along with church networks.
Why the overall slow start for the GOP candidates in Tennessee? Opportunity for Santorum and protecting home turf for Gingrich might be among the reasons. Polls in Michigan (which holds its primary February 28) show Santorum with a chance to upset Romney in his boyhood home state where his father was once governor and a major business leader in the auto industry. Frankly, a Michigan loss would be disastrous for Romney and might even knock him out of the race and force a brokered GOP convention. So, with more limited resources, you can bet Santorum will put all the time and money he can in Michigan and therefore may not concentrate much in Tennessee until after the end of the month (or if he decides Michigan is no longer in play for him). The same is true for Romney who seems to be spending all his candidate time there these days. He may need to add Arizona to that list as the latest Rasmussen poll shows that race (February 28) tightening with Romney now leading only 39% to 31% over Santorum.
As for Gingrich, polls in his home state of Georgia show he is being challenged. A loss there on March 6 would all but scuttle his chances for good. So given his even more limited financial resources than Santorum, the Gingrich brain trust will have to invest their time very wisely to do well. That could mean Tennessee may not get a whole lot more than his visit set for February 27, and even that could be rescheduled or scrubbed as circumstances change on the campaign trail in other Super Tuesday states. Right now, Gingrich appears to be making most of his campaign appearances in other Super Tuesday states such as Ohio.
So enjoy what you can of the political limelight for Tennessee (if you enjoy that kind of thing). And remember, especially given this wacky political year, it could all change completely in a heartbeat!
After spending several days lambasting President Barack Obama's new budget as a "re-election" ploy and not good policy to move the country forward, Congressional Republicans are now backtracking more than a little bit, conceding to the President and Congressional Democrats that the payroll tax cut (about to expire again the end of the month) needs to be continued for the rest of the year even if that means adding to the massive national deficit.
The Republicans are also supporting a modified extension of unemployment benefits and once again delaying cuts in Medicare payments to doctors. Those ongoing costs are being offset by other cuts in the federal budget, but the GOP's willingness to agree with the President and Democrats took some on Capitol Hill off guard.
After months of fighting and gridlock on these issues, why is the GOP conceding? Simple, the President and the Democrats have won the battle for public opinion. While both sides have been hurt by this tussle, it's the Republicans who have taken the greater hits and they know if it happens again (and especially if the payroll tax cut expires, they will get blamed for taxes going up in an election year). Even the latest Rasmussen poll (usually considered a Republican leaning survey group) indicates 52% of the public says it better for the GOP to work with President Obama than stand on principle. Enough said.
With Congress, of course, taking action just before its goes off on recess for the President's Day Holiday, it appeared at times this "bi-partisan compromise" could still fall apart including late reports of problems in the Senate. But it passed in both Houses by wide margins. For sure some Tea Party-related congressmen and senators didn't like it. Even some Democrats such as Nashville Congressman Jim Cooper voted no when the House approved the measure. Cooper, a renowned fiscal hawk, is opposed because the measure will add more than a $100 billion to the deficit just for the rest of this year.
But for the GOP, to me this latest retreat is another sign of a party in deep turmoil, still not sure of exactly what it wants to do in terms not only of a presidential nominee but also its legislative strategy between now and November.
In this regard, there is even more ominous news for the Republicans in the latest CNN poll. It shows the GOP's advantage in enthusiasm among its voters over the Democrats has now vanished and the "country on the right track/wrong track "question has shown a 15% improvement (in the President's favor) since November. However, it should be noted that 6 out of 10 surveyed still believe the country is going in the wrong direction.
Still the President's approval numbers have inched back above the 50% level in the CNN poll and he defeats all the GOP candidates in head-on-head races (51%- 46% over Romney, 52%-42% over both Santorum and Paul, and 55%-42% over Gingrich. President Obama also has an edge among the critical independent vote in all those poll pairings.
A couple of years ago when the Tennessee General Assembly was much more evenly divided politically than it is now, word that a lawmaker might be changing parties would be front-page news and have the halls of the Legislature rift with rumor and speculation.
But apparently, that's not true now. According to a story by Erik Schelzig of the Associated Press (February 14) Republican House Majority Leader Gerald McCormick of Chattanooga (already with 64 members in his caucus) is "cool" to the possibility of Democratic Representative Eddie Bass switching over and running as a Republican this summer. McCormack says "he is satisfied with (the) potential GOP candidates considering a bid in House District 65," adding, "I'd rather he'd stay where he is, to tell the truth. He's not doing himself any favors running that gun bill."
That bill is one backed by the National Rifle Association that would guarantee workers the right to store their firearms in cars parked on company lots. Many powerful business interests strongly oppose the measure saying it would interfere with their rights to set rules on their own property. It's apparently a measure GOP leaders don't want to anything to do with in an election year, or possibly welcome into their party, the bill's main sponsor.
Bass says he will make up his mind as late as the qualifying deadline in April to decide under what party label he will seek re-election.
150 years ago this week, Tennessee lawmakers and the Governor were headed for the hills (actually Memphis) as Nashville was about to fall to Union forces during the Civil War. It was a time of complete chaos in the city and perhaps our darkest hour, as Nashville was about to enter into the longest occupation ever endured by an American city…three-plus years long.
Nashville's official County historian, Carole Bucy joins me on INSIDE POLITICS this weekend to look back on this tumultuous period and the impacts it still has on our area today.
This is a little bit of a different topic for our show, but I think you will find the discussion fascinating.
INSIDE POLITICS airs several times each weekend on the NEWSCHANNEL5 NETWORK. That includes Sunday morning at 5:00 a.m. on the main channel, WTVF-TV, NEWCHANNEL5. We can also be seen on NEWSCHANNEL5 PLUS with show times at 7:00 p.m., Friday; 5:00 a.m. & 5:30 p.m., Saturday; and 5:00 a.m. & 12:30 p.m., Sunday. THE PLUS is found on several cable networks throughout Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky including Comcast Cable channel 250, Charter Cable channel 150 and NEWSCHANNEL5's over-the-air digital channel 5.2.

There are Civil War-type echoes even now in the current session of the Tennessee General Assembly.
According to an article by the Dean of the Capitol Hill Press Corps, Tom Humphrey of THE KNOXVILLE NEWS SENTINEL (February 14), a House Judiciary sub-committee was recently debating a bill that would require federal agents to notify local authorities before coming into the state to make arrests. This seems to have some support in the wake of the federal raid involving Gibson Guitar a few months back.
But supporters say it is really just the next step of previously successful efforts in the Legislature to curb an overreaching federal government. This has already been done they say through legislation passed last year to preempt the new federal health care law from taking effect in Tennessee, and as well as legislation approved which says federal gun laws cannot be enforced in the state if the weapon involved was made within Tennessee and never taken outside the state.
But during an hour-long debate before the bill was deferred for possible amendments, lawmakers raised questions about whether it is wise for Tennessee to nullify federal law. Maybe what got everyone's attention in this legislation is that this federal agent's notification bill makes it a Class E felony if the notification doesn't occur, punishable by one to six years in prison if convicted.
Nullification, particularly over the issue of slavery, was a major part of the North versus South battle prior to the Civil War. But its historical roots go back even further to battles in the 1820s and 1830s over tariffs. South Carolina, led by then former Vice President and later Senator John C. Calhoun, carried the nullification fight as the Palmetto State tried to exempt itself from the federal tariffs. He was opposed by Tennessee's most famous President, Andrew Jackson who thundered in a famous toast offered in a response to an equally challenging toast by Calhoun at a Washington event: "Our federal union, it must and shall be preserved." Knowing Jackson's steely determination and likely willingness to use federal troops to enforce the law, Calhoun and South Carolina backed down.
And so while the issues change a bit, fights between our state and federal governments over jurisdiction do not abate even 150 years after we fought a war over it.
I am hearing more names on the GOP side for the 20th District State Senate race to take the seat of Nashville's Joe Haynes, who is retiring. Apparently ready to join Dr. Steve Dickerson are long-time GOP activist and fund raiser Scooter Clippard along with Lipscomb graduate and former Young Republican activist Rob Mortensen. Mortensen was also an active member of Governor Haslam's campaign committee in Davidson County two years ago.
The potential field for the Democrats has almost certainly gotten smaller by one candidate with Metro Councilman Brady Banks' shocking arrest as a part of a prostitution sting. Still there are plenty of candidates likely to tee it up on both sides to make this a very interesting race both this summer and into the fall.
One other longtime Nashville Democratic state representative not seeking another term on the Hill is Janis Sontany, who says she wants to spend more time with her family. Her district was also changed quite a bit in the recent redistricting done by the Republicans. It still remains a district that leans Democratic but it may also contain so many new voters that Sontany decided not to seek election one more time. Like all these open seats, you can be sure plenty of potential candidates will be coming out of the woodwork to assess their chances to win.
Those in the Metro Council still pressing for County Clerk John Arriola to step down or repay those folks he married and charged an inappropriate $40 fee (according to an audit by the State Comptroller) for his services, may have a new problem coming out of the Brady Banks arrest.
While the charges are vastly different, council members may be reluctant to vote to take a stand on Arriola's issue without also dealing with what to do (if anything) regarding Banks' new legal problems (ask he step down, censure?)
So while the Council is still trying to figure out what it wants to do about one of its own, that may mean still more deferrals on the Arriola legislation while everyone waits to see what District Attorney Tory Johnson will do with the County Clerk's case.
The Occupy Nashville protestors are likely in their final weekend on Capitol Hill before state lawmakers give approval to make camping out illegal on state property (to the tune of a fine of $2,500 and nearly a year in jail). The House has already overwhelmingly approved the new law with some 70 yes votes while the Senate is expected to concur next Thursday (February 23).
Those harsh penalties may be the reason some of the Occupiers have already split with the number of tents on Legislative Plaza down to less than half of what it was last fall when these protests began. Governor Haslam says he will sign the new bill when it reaches his desk, although he wants his legal team to review before any evictions begin. You'll remember how embarrassed the state was when state troopers and other law enforcement officials arrested and removed the Occupy protestors (and some reporters) last October only to have a Metro magistrate and a federal judge throw the cases out of court and impose a restraining order on any further evictions before the state went through the public process of approving new rules and regulations concerning public use of the Plaza and other state property.
Governor Haslam has indicated he still prefers pursuing that process even though it is going quite slowly. So it could be a while, if ever, before the new law passed by the General Assembly is enforced by state officials. Having made their point, it seems most Occupiers are packing up their pup tents, and while some vow to remain to be arrested and challenge the constitutionality of the new law, it appears most protests in the future may be done by 24/7 protestors who may carry signs or chant but don't pitch tents or sleep over.
