Ah, I see I misread your post and we are pretty much suggesting the same thing - Xavi further back in midfield, Fabregas playing the link-up role between midfleld and the strikers. You prefer Alonso to be dropped, I'd rather Busquets was benched.
Torres has been ****ing awful.
Oh dear, oh dear.
Definitely bundled him over on first look.
Yep, fully holding his arm. Pretty much using it as a tug-of-war rope.
Haha. Called it on msn. Casillas WAG. Even if he was rushed out with his feet about 984 times this tournament.

... deserved a penalty there...... that was just stupid by Pique
Ha, good. Refs should give em more often.
Cricket Web's 2013/14 Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"as much a news event as an actual footballer, a worthy stop-start centre forward, but an all-time hyper-galactico when it comes to doing funny things with cars and hats, a player whose signing proves once again that the Premier League is still undoubtedly the best in the world when it comes to doing things with cars and hats."
- Barney Ronay on Mario Balotelli
Never fancied him to score with the stuttering run up.
Awesome save.....
Penalty at other end.
What was he thinking holding him like that?
Is there any strategic value in harassing the ref like this? Have they ever actually overturned anything?
Rest In Peace Craigos
Definition of end to end. Villa already missed on this tournament. Lightning doesn't strike twice.
Definitely won't strike twice when he's not even taking the bloody thing.
Bad encroachment on the pen for Paraguay, save shouldn't of stood.

A Community prayer vigil will be held at Community Clubhouse in Crisp County on Sunday, September 14,2014 at 7pm.
A historic gym in Alapaha
is celebrating its 75th birthday, but there isn't a lot to celebrate right now.The building has served as
a community center for generations, but it needs a facelift and the city
doesn't have the money.
The gym holds generations
of history, but those special moments are in danger of being erased forever!
"There is a spot where the
tile has fell out and you can tell a lot of water has fallen through that spot,"
said Councilman Phillip Hoffman.
Hoffman recalls many of
the events the gym has hosted over the years.
"We've used it not
only for a gym, we've used it for beauty pageants, we've used it for talent
shows, we've used it for religious services, it's all purpose," said Hoffman
The gym was funded by
FDR'S New Deal initiative back in the late 1930's to help stimulate the economy
and provide an outlet for people during the Great Depression. But age is
catching up with the landmark now.
"It's just an ongoing
problem; we've had to patch the roof probably ten times in the last eight or
nine years," said Hoffman.
The building needs a $30,000
roof repair. The city has come up with
half of that price. Leaders hope citizens will donate the rest. Anthony Powell
used to hang out in the gym growing up.
He wants to see the building saved.
"It would to the
point that you think about all the hands craft, that the people into this gym,
and there some of the elderly people that still living now that they know some
of the people, the fathers or mothers that helped build this gym," said Powell.
Councilman Hoffman and
many other people in Alapaha want the gym fixed up.
"I'm hoping to
restore this gym to as good of condition as we possibly can get it and I hope it
will continue to be used for the betterment of our community and as a community
center, that will be my hope," said Hoffman.
He shut the doors on Friday, hoping to find a
way to keep the historic building open.

During my road racing career I have done many 5K races, too many to count. Most of them were on the road or a cross country course. Very few races I have ran were on trails. I did the OEC Eco Trail run 4K and 8K this past April and in the snow. Last week I participated in the Cowboy Trail Run at the Cheff Center in Augusta and the trail was very muddy which got me a little prepared for the Kalamazoo Mud Run, but not completely.
Earlier this week I looked at the Kalamazoo Mud Run website to see what obstacles I would expect and checked out the photos and video from last year to see how muddy I would get during the race. I then got the course map on Thursday this week and read their were 17 obstacles I would have to navigate throughout the 5K course not to mention all the uphills and downhills.
Today before the race I talked to my friend Lars and he told me about last year's race and how it was a two loop course and this year it was only one loop. Race time rolled around and I made sure I was in the first heat as Lars told me the obstacles would become very slippery after the competitors ran through them, plus I am a faster runner so I wanted to be up front.
After a prayer before the race the air horn sounded and we were off and the first obstacle came up quickly, the Little Dipper a mud pit that went up to my knees. That was the beginning of a fun run. I climbed out of the Little Dipper and I ran through the woods navigating many uphills, downhills and jumping over logs (made me think I should have done hurdles in high school) with a few obstacles, like the vertical plunge, a steep uphill climb, Jericho's wall which involves climbing over two fences, and running through tires plus a few others.
Once I cleared the woods and I came to the slide obstacle, the longest on the course. I went down the slide and then ran through the pool of mud up a small hill and then down into another long pool of mud. I ran slowly through the mud pit because I did not want to fall flat on my face. I headed back into the woods through the final few obstacles, which one of them involved running though ropes.
After I cleared the second portion of woods I was not too muddy and was wondering 'where I am going to get dirty?' Then I saw the pole pit and had a big grin on my face. I had to get on my hands and knees and crawl through a muddy pit with a barrier of logs above my head. After I quickly made it through the pole pit I got back on my feet quickly and ran hard to the finish with my muddy soaked shirt, shorts, and shoes.
It was a successful Mud Run. I had so much FUN! I smiled most of the race and took it easy running the obstacles not knowing what to expect. I finished 12th overall and 2nd in my age group with a time of 22:35. I also donated my shoes after the race and I look forward to coming back next year.

The Ernest Bloch Society
Formed in 1980 and named in honor of CIM's first Director, the Ernest Bloch Society represents the core of our voluntary support. Known for his skills as a great educator and as one of the finest composers of the 20th century, Ernest Bloch served as a model of what is best about a conservatory education - a unique learning environment borne of the interaction of gifted students with artists/educators who have reached the top of their profession.
As a result of an October 2007 decision by CIM's Board of Trustees, the initial Bloch Society contribution level was changed, after 27 years, from $1,000 to $1,500. CIM is committed to providing excellence in education and this excellence is maintained through generous private support. With the cost of a college education continuing to rise, there is a vital need not only to encourage our donors to raise their level of giving, but also to attract new donors to the Bloch Society.

Tights are sometimes just too much. Whether you're running or skate skiing or hiking, you want warmth and freedom of movement without kitting out in an uber-athletic wardrobe. I bought these for skate skiing and they're perfect. They're way sleeker than, say, softshell pants. But they aren't as "race-day" looking as tights. Particularly for skate skiing, they're ideal. Also, if you're stuck between sizes, go with the smaller size for sure!

When it comes to music, Rihanna may be a Grammy-winning hit machine, but apparently, her acting leaves a lot to be desired. Battleship , the sci-fi action movie in which she made her big-screen debut, tanked at the box office, and now she's "won" -- and we use that term loosely -- the Razzie Award for Worst Supporting Actress.
The Razzies -- or Golden Raspberry Awards -- are given out each year the night before the Oscars to recognize the absolute worst in movie making over the past year. Razzie voters apparently chose Rihanna as the "winner" in the Worst Supporting Actress category by a landslide. Her competition in the category included her Battleship co-star Brooklyn Decker, as well as Jessica Biel , Ashley Green and Jennifer Lopez .
In Battleship , Rihanna played weapons specialist Cora Raikes, and trained with a real U.S. soldier to learn proper weapons handling, military lingo and more.

What is it to be poor for you in this year?
The things that you should have? The salary you should get?

Nov 9 2013: To me, being poor this year meant being forced to go on to the SNAP's and Medicaid programs because I couldn't find continuous work for the year, needed to eat and was required by federal law to have medical coverage by 2014. As a healthy, 28 year old and a part time student I should be able to find at least a part time year around job to provide for my basic needs. However, the job market is not there. I keep telling myself, stick with school, it will pay off and all this will just be a stepping stone on my way to a better day... but staying positive becomes harder when all the NEWS and signs point towards continued hardship in my immediate future.
Nov 10 2013: Lisalotte,
Staying positive is actually easy. The secret?
Do not believe --
the NEWS, and signs that point towards continued hardship...
My Father, bless him, taught me at a very young age.
50% of everything you see and hear from the NEWS is a lie.
The other 50% you can discard as just being wrong.
The Media is interested in separating Advertisers from their Dollars.
The Media cares not a whit for you, except to pocket your Dollars.
Now for the important stuff --
As a healthy, 28 year old and a part time student...
You are 1 year away from when the Ambition Bug bites.
"Don't miss the bite."
Three things to believe and apply to your life...
1. Courage means to be afraid to do something, but to go ahead and do it.
2. Your Occam's razor behavior as regards medical coverage is a humiliating experience.
However, a high percentage of the population of the United States find themselves in the
same position. So forgive yourself, and learn to like yourself.
3. Unsuccessful people "always" refuse to do the things that successful people do.
Like getting up in the mornings early. 4:30am is a real test. Try it for 3 months.
Like thinking about how to do something you can be proud of. "Thinking Good Thoughts".
Like learning to understand that "Taking the First Step" is the proper way to start.
Like knowing that successful people want to share how to do it. Approach them and ask.
That should prepare you. Go get 'em...
ps: Climb a high hill, sit on a rock overlooking a valley community. Contemplate. It works.

A reading of the new biography by English faculty member Da Zheng
A young man arrives in England in the 1930s, knowing only a few words of English. Yet, two years later, he writes a successful English book on Chinese art; within the following decade, he goes on to publish more than a dozen others. This is the true story of Chiang Yee, a renowned writer, artist, and worldwide traveler, best known for the Silent Traveller series—stories of England, the United States, Ireland, France, Japan, and Australia.
Da Zheng's biography is a recounting of Chiang Yee's extraordinary accomplishments as well as his transnational experience. The book uncovers Chiang's encounters with racial exclusion and immigration laws, displacement, exile, and the pain and losses he endured while maintaining a popular public image. Zheng will read and talk about his biography of Chiang Yee.
This event is sponsored by the Asian Studies Program, the Rosenberg Institute for East Asian Studies, and the College of Arts and Sciences. For more information, please contact email@example.com.

Kristof: There's a perception that men are the culprits of the terrible things done to women. Often they are, but there is no worse oppressor to women and girls in much of the world than the mother-in-law.
WuDunn: It's frustrating to be looking in, and to say, "How come they don't get it?" But it's the rules of their culture.
Kristof: There's sometimes a tendency to think there's nothing we can do about these [issues], but there is. China used to be just about the worst place in the world to be born female. Sheryl's grandmother had her feet bound, but these days no one has their feet bound, and women really are the dynamos behind the economic industrialization of China.
Affleck: It's pretty impressive [that] you guys seem to get along well, work well together, the whole thing.
Kristof: The truth is that if you can raise kids, coming up with a book together is much easier. A book doesn't play one of you against the other. A book doesn't look at you with really sad eyes. If you can figure out the tough issues with child rearing, then a book is a piece of cake.
Affleck: In writing the book, was there a story that was particularly painful or moving to either of you?
WuDunn: Some of the most memorable stories are inspiring. One is the story of a woman [in Africa] who was considered the dog of her family. Her younger brother would bring his homework home and she would do it for him. He would take tests and do horribly. Then the family discovered it was the sister who was doing the homework, and so they let her learn. Now she is in the U.S. getting her Ph.D. Talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. If you give opportunity to women, there's no telling where they can go.

Fantastic villa!
We are a family of four from Sweden and we had a wonderful stay in this lovely house! It is very nice decorated, you can tell that Morag and Ernie have good taste! The kitchen is fully equipped with the most hitech things you can possibly need or want. We really enjoyed the pool, and the game-room. After a long day at any of all the theme parks, it´s nice to relax by the pool. It takes just 20-30 minutes to drive to any theme park. Morag, thank you very much for letting us stay in your fantastic villa. We appreciated the phonecall the first day of our stay, it really shows that you care, and want everything to be perfect! It felt as being at home, just not i our own home. We will most certainly recommend anyone to stay at Villa Hanevad, and for our next visit in Florida, you already know that we will contact you again! Dalgren family from Sweden
Good Value Close to Disney
We have been renting for several years off and on in Florida. This was perhaps one of the very best values in terms of overall comfort and cleanliness. We rented this property to accommodate ourselves and our 4 children (at different weeks) and their families. The one restaurant you have to try is the Chop House, south on Hwy 27 as you enter Haines city. Fantastic venue, huge portions, lots of fun, and very reasonable, but be prepared to wait as the lineups are huge. Call ahead for getting your name on the list early. We spent most of the month visiting Disney World (15 minutes away), Busch Gardens, Seaworld, and beaches on both the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. There are two nice parks within walking distance for the youngsters, and we took in attractions every other day. It was a great holiday with all of our extended family. As for problems, Enoka was wonderful addressing the few issues we had, though there were very few. The kitchen was well supplied with the basics, and the beds were very comfortable. It was somewhat dated, but very clean. There were no pool cleaning tools there however, such as a net to clean off debris that finds it way into the pool, and the pool is only vacuumed once a week. There was plenty of seating outside, and on the inside there were lots of areas to chill out by yourself if you so wished. Parking is an issue if you have more than two vehicles as parking is not allowed on the street overnight. Again, it was great value for what we got, and Enoka was a pleasure to deal with. We will probably rent this home again when we have a larger gathering.
Very nice house
great vacation

text: Michael Jackson's Kids to Star in A&E Reality Television Show Will You Watch the Jackson Kids on a Reality Show? by babysugar 10/15/09 8 Reactions 0 Shares Print 0 0 0 0 0 Though their father tried to keep their identities sealed for most of their young lives, it seems Michael Jackson's babes will be the shining stars in A&E's new reality series, The Jacksons: A Family Dynasty. It is no surprise that the family is reportedly already battling over the decision to include the youngsters in the recordings. Rebbie, Michael's oldest sister, is apparently upset while baby sister Janet is going along with the plan. There are reports denying the childrens' appearance on the show. Either way, it seems a bit soon to be placing cameras and a crew around the recently orphaned children who had previously led a very private life. However, there will surely be those fans who will tune in to catch a glimpse of the enigmatic wee ones and the new life that surrounds them. Will you be one of them?

Michael tried to sheild them from the spotlight as much as possible and now his parents (dad) want them to be on a reality show? That is crazy! FrankiLee 4 years Oh my gosh. This is ridiculous. I will not watch the show. Obviously no one is too concerned about the well-being of his children. Another way to make money off of Michael Jackson's death, I guess.

Unilever delivers solid top-line growth
The company's emerging markets focus and personal care products drive results.
Continued growth in emerging markets
In terms of geography, emerging economies drove most of Unilever's growth in prior quarters of 2012. The final quarter was no different with emerging markets clocking up net growth in sales of 10.8%. Both volumes and prices contributed equally, underlying the company's continued dominance in regions such as South Asia and South-East Asia. The company's consistent performance in this area was also reflected in the overall 12-month sales from emerging markets, which was up 11.4% from the previous year.
Meanwhile, the picture in developed markets continued on a subdued note, although the company's performance in the last quarter was much better than it was in previous quarters. Developed markets registered a net sales increase of 4% during the fourth quarter compared to only 1.6% during the 12-month period – a key sign of a resurgence in demand for consumer products in countries such as the U.S. Unilever's aggressive pricing and packaging strategy to displace more expensive competitors such as Procter & Gamble (PG) also seems to be picking up pace in North America and Western Europe considering the general economic weakness in these regions.
Personal care continues to grow
We can see a marked difference in the performance of Unilever's two key divisions -- personal care and foods. While demand in emerging economies is pushing personal care products further, flagging demand in developed economies is bringing down net sales of the foods division.
Personal care, the company's largest segment in terms of sales, generates a major portion of its revenues from emerging markets. The strong growth in demand for products like shampoos and soaps helped the division register a robust underlying sales growth of 11.8% in the fourth quarter of 2012, with the 12-month also finishing in double digits at 10%. Most of this was driven by an increase in volume rather than price and underlines the company's best-in-class sales and distribution channels even in remote, emerging economies. Apart from its deep-rooted channels, performance in this segment was also bulked up by various product introductions over the course of 2012, with new launches under brands like Tresemme, Dove and Lux strengthening the company's portfolio.
Foods, on the other hand, paints a grimmer picture, with an underlying sales decline of 0.1% over the last quarter. This is primarily because a major bulk of sales in this division comes from developed economies where the general economic weakness has led to flagging demand. Net sales did manage to increase by 1.3%, supported by an underlying price increase of 1.4%. Investors will need to wait for a greater uptake of packaged foods, especially spreads, in emerging economies before Unilever sees any real growth here.
Performance in the other divisions, refreshment (comprising of iced teas and ice-creams) and home care (detergents and surface cleaners) was also quite robust, with underlying sales growth of 6.7% and 7.0% respectively. The reasons here were similar to those in personal care -- increased demand from emerging economies fulfilled through deep sales channels and improved product portfolio.
Bottom-line remains steady
Despite Unilever's focus on beating competitors on price in developed economies and the increasing uptake of products in price-sensitive emerging economies, the company's margins seem to be holding steady. Over 2012, the company's overall core operating margin increased by 30 basis points, indicating that its volume growth can be sustained despite pricing pressure.
We will soon update our price estimate of $39 for Unilever based on the latest results.

Santa Monica Mayor Richard Bloom Declares Victory In 50th Assembly District Race
Breaking News
Posted Nov. 28, 2012, 10:48 am
Brenton Garen / Editor-in-Chief
Santa Monica Mayor Richard Bloom has declared victory in the race for the 50th Assembly District after his lead Wednesday increased to 1246 votes.
"After two years of campaigning in one of the most closely watched elections in the State of California, I just learned that the results of the latest vote count are such that we believe I am assured to be sworn in as the next representative for the 50th Assembly District," Bloom said in a message to his supporters Wednesday afternoon.
"With a lead of 1246 votes, and a relative few votes left to count, results should be certified on Friday, November 30th and I will be sworn in by State Supreme Court Chief Justice Tani G. Cantil-Sakauye on Monday, December 3 in the State Capitol."
Bloom said he and his wife Robbie were elated and grateful for this opportunity given to him by the voters of the 50th District.
"I want to thank all my supporters, contributors, staff, volunteers and my family for their unwavering support," he said.
As of latest reported counting on Wednesday, Nov. 28 at 3:45 p.m., Bloom 's lead of 1246 votes has been his biggest margin since the Nov. 6 election.
With more than 180,000 ballots counted, Bloom leads with 91,498 votes (50.3 percent) to incumbent Betsy Butler's 90,252 (49.7 percent).
Of the 80 Assembly Districts in California, the 50th District has been the closest.
The day after the election he led Butler by 218 votes after approximately 138,000 ballots had been counted.
On Nov. 13, Bloom was still 218 votes ahead after approximately 151,000 ballots had been counted.
On Nov. 16, Bloom's lead increased to 291 votes after approximately 161,000 ballots had been counted.
On Nov. 21, Bloom's lead decreased to 79 votes after approximately 171,000 ballots had been counted.
On Nov. 26, Bloom increased his margin to 888 votes after approximately 178,500 ballots had been counted.
Both Bloom and Butler are democrats.
Butler, who is yet to concede defeat, has served the 53rd Assembly District since assuming office Dec. 6, 2010, which encompassed parts of Los Angeles and the South Bay.
However, under the 2011 redistricting lines, the 53rd Assembly District changed significantly and Butler chose to run for re-election in the open 50th Assembly District that represents Agoura Hills, Beverly Hills, Hollywood, Malibu, Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, Topanga, West Hollywood, and Westlake Village.
At the June 5 primary, Butler edged Bloom with 25.77 percent of the vote (16,084 votes) to his 25.55 percent of the vote (15,947 votes).
The other two candidates in the June primary race who missed out on securing the top two spots on the Nov. 6 ballot were Republican candidate Brad Torgan with 24.4 percent of the vote (15,227), and Democrat candidate Torie Osborn with 24.28 percent of the vote (15,155 votes).
The LA County Registrar's office has not released the number of how many ballots that remain uncounted.

And a win for the rich developers who gave him LOTS of money to vote for their projects. Bloom is going to turn Santa Monica into an even bigger mess than it already is. Santa Monica is a congested, over-developed hell hole. A pathetic husk of what it used to be.

I love doing research in the library. Answering reference questions is my favorite thing, if a little rare these days. But, I am not a genealogist. Still, I was curious about some people who were important to me when I was a child, and I found some of the answers I was looking for by using online resources available to me through MCPL.
Libraries aren't just about books.
Dr. Ron Miriani, retired Professor of History, conducted a walking tour called Westport: The Town That Re-Invents Itself on October 9. The group met at Kelly's Westport Inn, a designated national historical landmark, and stopped at over 30 locations, including Harris Hotel and Pioneer Park.
Patrons explored the little known history of Kansas City's oldest establishment, Westport. The adventure culminated with a tour of the Harris-Kearney House given by the Westport Historical Society.
Now, I know Halloween is over, but every year around this time I start thinking about how Halloween became Halloween. I feel like there is more to the date than costumes, candy, and trick-or-treating. I began my research on our MCPL list of history databases. Searching individual databases was not providing me with a ton of general information, so I decided to do a cross search on multiple databases (top of the page). This search brought plenty of results, including a rather interesting tale from Ireland.
Platte County is part of the Platte Purchase which added the northwest section to Missouri in 1836. It was one of the last official acts of William Clark before his death. The signing of the treaties that allowed settlers to start coming into the area was held at Fort Leavenworth.
Why does Missouri have the boot heel? Why is Michigan in two parts? How come Texas is so big, but Rhode Island is so small? If you've ever wondered about the eccentricities of the 50 states or would like to learn about them, then we have the perfect book for you.
Most of us have at least heard parts of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. We might even have read its chiseled words on the walls of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. It is a memorable speech to be sure. However, I believe Lincoln's greatest speech, only 703 words long, is his Second Inaugural Address.
The pundits of Lincoln's time gave the speech mixed reviews. But, Lincoln's words have stood the test of time. Its final paragraph inspires me in today's circumstances:
The assassination of John F. Kennedy, thirty-fifth President of the United States, took place on November 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas. My parents often speak of the assassination around this time of year, and it's very emotional for my entire family. When I ran across the book, Letters to Jackie: Condolences from a Grieving Nation by Ellen F. Fitzpatrick, I knew this was a book I had to read.
I learned something new today. December 1st marks the 119 anniversary of the invention of basketball. This fact is particularly interesting as I am a KU alum and fan (I know, I know), and basketball has long been identified with KU. I thought I would share with you some facts about basketball that you can share with the family and friends during timeouts and halftime.
The Kansas City Star newspaper had a front page article Saturday, November 27 on a WWI military unit which became known as the Polar Bears. They were sent by President Woodrow Wilson to the Arctic shore of Russia in 1918, at the end of WWI. Their mission was to oppose the communists and support the czarists as the Russian Revolution began. The men were left in frigid Russia for about seven months before they were evacuated.

1. CLEAN YOUR CHAIN Complicated methods abound: Remove the chain and soak it overnight; disassemble and clean each roller with a cotton swab; and something else involving pipe cleaners and a toxic solvent. This lazy-chain-cleaner's process removes gunk and you won't need safety goggles. Buy a chain cleaner such as Park Tool's Cyclone Chain Scrubber ($30; parktool.com [30]) and fill it with Pedro's Oranj Peelz Citrus Degreaser ($11/16 ounces; pedros.com [31]). Attach the device to your chain, turn the crank 15 revolutions, and let the brushes scrub away grime (shown). Remove the chain cleaner and wipe the chain dry with a clean rag. No chain cleaner? Spray Finish Line Speed Degreaser ($12/17-ounce can; finishlineusa.com [32]) onto the chain, focusing on small sections at a time (it evaporates quickly), and wipe clean with a dry rag. Apply lube when you're done.
2. ADJUST YOUR BRAKES If your brake lever reaches the handlebar before it stops your bike, either your pads are worn or your cables are stretched. Worn pads should be replaced—but that's another story, and you want to ride now, so do this to get by. Turn the barrel adjuster on the brake caliper (where the cable enters the brake) clockwise one click at a time, testing your brakes after each adjustment. If you reach the last click and still haven't solved the problem, turn it clockwise until it stops, loosen the pinch bolt (where the cable goes into the caliper) and pull a small amount of cable through (shown). Tighten the pinch bolt and repeat the process until you get the right amount of tension.
3. SMOOTH OUT SHIFTING What good is a clean chain if it jumps around and skips gears? Loose cable tension is the likely culprit. With your bike in a repair stand, shift to the smallest cog. Turn the barrel adjuster on the rear derailleur one-half turn clockwise (shown). Then, as you rotate your pedals, shift once. If the chain doesn't jump to the next cog, make another half-turn. If the chain starts to jump two cogs for every one shift, you went too far. Back it down a half-turn. Don't turn the barrel adjuster more than halfway at a time. You may end up with too much tension, which will make your shifting just as bad or worse than when you started.

WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAU) -- Wausau police are investigating how a number of guns ended up on the ice under the Bridge Street bridge.
A call came into dispatch early Saturday morning from a walker who reported seeing the weapons out on the ice. Lieutenant Michael Juedes says they hadn't been there long. "From the lack of snow on top of the firearms, and some snow underneath, we think they'd been out there for a day or so."
All of the guns were older shotguns and long rifles. Juedes says they probably weren't taken from a gun shop. "We're assuming it's probably from a burglary or two." Several burglaries have taken place in Wausau over the past few months with a number of guns and rifles stolen, and police are now trying to determine who the original owners of the guns are.
Detectives are investigating, and Juedes says more information will be available on Monday.

The sample looks good! Looking forward to trying the technique out
Hi everyone,
I thought I would let everyone know that I have written my first tutorial on how to make "realistic" forests and trees in Photoshop. I have explained each step and why I use and suggest settings, making it really easy for the user to easily manipulate to get their own effects. This style is effective for close-ups (see more individual trees at once) or long-distances (see entire forests at once).
The style that can be achieved is in this screenshot:
You can read the tutorial Create Trees or Forests for Cartography Maps at my website Ervirath.
At the very end of the article you can also download the Photoshop file that can be readily made into a pattern, so please do!
If you download I would really appreciate it if you can leave a thank you comment on my blog

So much for that nine-game SEC schedule that's generated so much buzz.
It fizzled out on Sunday.
The league's powers to be voted that the SEC's football teams will continue to play an eight-game schedule with the 6-1-1 format.
The vote ended a long discussion about whether the SEC teams would go to a nine-game conference schedule, like the Pac-12 and Big 12. The Big Ten is going to a nine-game schedule in 2016.
Here's SEC Commissioner Mike Slive: "This has been a thoughtful and deliberative process that has resulted in maintaining the current format and adds a provision that will bolster our collective annual non-conference schedule. Critical to maintaining this format is the non-conference opponent factor which gives us the added strength-of-schedule we were seeking while allowing continued scheduling flexibility for institutional preferences, and acknowledges that many of our institutions already play these opponents."
There was a key addition in the vote.
Beginning in 2016, every SEC team will have to play at least one team from another Big 5 conference (Big 12, Pac-12, Big Ten and ACC are the other power conferences).
Most schools already schedule at least one team from a Big 5 conference, but Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Texas A&M and Vanderbilt don't this season.
Here are the permanent crossover games:
Of course, LSU AD Joe Alleva isn't pleased with the vote. LSU plays Florida in its permanent crossover game. Here's what he told The Times-Picayune:
"If I'm Ole Miss and I'm playing Vanderbilt, I'll vote to play Vanderbilt. If I'm Mississippi State and I'm playing Kentucky, I'm going to vote to play Kentucky. People voted their own self interest instead of what is in the best interest of competitive balance. I understand Alabama-Tennessee and Auburn-Georgia for the history, but that's only four schools. The rest were voting in their own self-interest. They could have kept those games and the rest of us rotated. That was brought up but voted down."
But in the end, history won out.
"It has been a hallmark of the SEC over our history to be able to make continued progress while also maintaining traditions important to our institutions," Slive said.

The schools were told to go play a good team. How good?….Good enough that you might have to depend on the result of that good team to get into the playoff.

A Trip to Salvation Mountain
Browse more photos on the Salvation Mountain location page.
If you ever visit Niland, California, a desert town of just over 1,000 people in the southeasternmost corner of the state, you're sure to find Salvation Mountain. The giant, bright relgious tribute is made of over 100,000 gallons of paint and stands 50 feet tall by 150 feet in breadth. Artist Leonard Knight started building the mountain in the 1980s and lived there for 30 years, passing days adding to and caring for his life's work.
Since Knight, now 82, entered into a long-term care facility in late 2011, concern has been raised for the future of the site. Without constant upkeep, the harsh environment can quickly erode the fragile mountain made of clay and paint. Learn more about the fight to save Salvation Mountain here.

Council gives county executive a hefty raise
By Jack Kintner
A sharply divided Whatcom County Council voted 4-3 to give county executive Pete Kremen an 11 percent raise spread over two years last week, one side claiming that the raise was necessary because his salary was too far below "what the market demands" and the other calling the raise "obscene."
The council's action means that Kremen's salary will increase $4,673 next year, from $132,827 to $137,500, and in 2010 jump $9,524 to $147,024. This resolution was reached after the council tried to rescind a 6 percent salary increase generated last summer by the state legislature's raising the salaries of county prosecutors.
When the state legislature's salary commission raised prosecutor's salaries Kremen got an automatic raise as well to $141,000 effective last July 1 because Whatcom county policy is to pay the executive 101 percent of the prosecutor's salary. Prosecutors' salaries are set in part by the state because prosecutors are responsible for enforcing state criminal laws in superior court.
County attorney Dan Gibson doubted that the attempt to rescind the earlier raise was legal because at the time, the Whatcom County charter required that the executive's salary be 101 percent of the county prosecutor's compensation.
The action raising the salaries occurred on July 1, but the county council didn't rescind the raise until October 8. State law prohibits lowering an elected official's salary during his term of office, so last week's action also canceled the earlier resolution that tried to rescind Kremen's raise.
The policy of tying the executive's salary to the prosecutor's salary was tossed out, but the two-step pay raise will still have the executive's salary at the 101 percent figure by 2010.
Council member Sam Crawford, who introduced last week's resolution to raise Kremen's compensation, said that keeping county salaries in line with market demands was important. "I'll agree that the raises are generous, but we lost three department heads last year because of salary issues, including public works director Jeff Monsen, planning department director Hal Hart and water resources director Bruce Roll."
Crawford added that having "elected officials make less than their department heads doesn't make sense. The extra salary provides incentive to run for office. Otherwise no one would run and instead just work on the staff." Currently there are 13 elected county positions, including treasurer, auditor, assessor, prosecuting attorney, sheriff, executive and seven council members.
But council member Barbara Brenner strongly opposed raises for anyone making that much. "In this terrible economic time it is obscene for the council majority to give 6.6 percent raises to elected officials," Brenner said. "We are public servants who should be setting an example of doing without when so many are losing their jobs."
Brenner unsuccessfully moved to freeze all elected officials salaries, pointing out that the raise would also bump Kremen's monthly retirement pay by an estimated $1,100, to $6,600 per month. Council member Laurie Caskey-Schreiber agreed with Brenner, and Carl Weimer also opposed Crawford's resolution that granted the raises, saying the council had been "hoodwinked." Council members Seth Fleetwood, Ward Nelson and Bob Kelley supported Crawford and his resolution passed.
According to Kremen's assistant Dewey Desler, Kremen himself took no position on the raise. "It didn't start with Pete but came about as a result of changed state requirements that had local ramifications," he said.
"We do need to remain competitive for positions that require significant skill levels and expertise. But it's good that the whole thing is over and done with now."

Solar streetlamps are gaining in popularity. It's one of the easiest ways for a city to green up in a noticeable way.
Going more along the lines of solar that mimics plants – and not just in the solar-collection sense – Lee has created a concept for solar lights that blend into tree-lined paths and sidewalks. Creating a beautiful, romantic evening setting, the lamps wind around existing branches, collect light during the day, and illuminate walkways at night. Since the www.diabetes.org.br lights use the trees as support, they don't need additional poles that would just increase the urban-ness of the scene.
I'm not sure how much sunlight they'd be able to collect, being installed under trees and all, so they probably wouldn't last long into the night. So there's that tiny detail to address, which perhaps will be solved with the increasing efficiency of solar we're seeing. However, the concept earned an IDEA award, and I hope that's the first sign that these will eventually make their way on uk propecia to city streets and park paths.

Vt. wind project fined for violationsDecember 05,2012MILTON The developer of a four-turbine wind power project in the towns of Milton and Georgia agreed to pay a $10,000 fine and contribute another $10,000 to a remediation fund for violations of its state permits during blasting for the project that is nearing completion.
The Vermont Public Service Board issued the order to Georgia Mountain Community Wind last week. Its the result of a negotiated settlement with surrounding neighbors.
We want to be good neighbors. We wanted an amicable resolution as quickly as possible, said Georgia Mountain wind project manager Martha Staskus.
The company acknowledged that rock from blasting a road up the mountain likely flew onto a neighboring property with enough force to leave marks on trees, the Burlington Free Press reported.
The company also admitted violating a permit by twice failing to provide enough notice to neighbors of blasting and by blasting on a state holiday.
Dan Richardson, the attorney for the group of five neighbors, said the settlement was the only way the neighbors could address their concerns about the impact of the project on their properties.
I think they chose the settlement that would put them in a better place than prolonged hearings, Richardson said. It is fair to say Georgia Mountain negotiated in good faith but I wouldnt say they are all good friends.MORE IN This Just InAn alleged fight outside a bar between Red Sox and Yankees fans has led to the suspension of two...

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - No. 6 Georgia and Tennessee head into their Saturday matchup at Neyland Stadium with health concerns at running back.
Tennessee's Marlin Lane had what was described as a "lower extremity injury" and Georgia's Todd Gurley sprained his left ankle in their respective teams' victories last week.
Tennessee coach Butch Jones said Monday that Lane's status was day to day. At his Sunday teleconference, Georgia coach Mark Richt used the same words to describe Gurley's situation.
Lane has gained 280 yards and four touchdowns on 45 carries. He rushed for 66 yards on five carries Saturday in a 31-24 victory over South Alabama.
Gurley has run for 450 yards and four touchdowns on 71 attempts. He had 73 yards on eight carries Saturday in a 44-41 triumph over No. 10 LSU.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - More than 30,000 runners pounded the pavement in Nashville Saturday for the 15th annual St. Jude Country Music Marathon.
The race began at a new location this year, starting in the heart of downtown Nashville at Broadway and Fifth Avenue. It wound its way down Belmont Boulevard all the way up to Rosa Parks Boulevard and around Woodland Street to LP Field.
Event coordinators said the intent was to highlight the areas around Belmont, 12 South, Downtown, the Gulch and East Nashville.
For the second straight year, Scott Wietecha, of Hendersonville, was the first male to cross the finish line. He made history by being the first person to win two consecutive Country Music Marathons.
He finished the 26.2 race with a time of 2:25:52.
Wietecha said he hadn't even planned on running this race until a few weeks ago, but he changed his mind at the urging of his elementary school students. He is a gym teacher in Hendersonville.
"It felt a lot more hilly than last year but that's the heat and being out of shape," he said. "It got a little ugly but I'm glad I got the win."
He overcame a hip injury this year to compete in the race.
"The Nashville race is kind of like the community race - something I need to represent the Nashville area for. I take a little more pride in this one for sure," he said.
Jeanette Faber, of Nashville, won the women's full marathon, with a time of 2:47:32. Joseph Chebet won the men's half marathon, with a time of 1:10:37 and Gisela Olalde ran the 13.1 mile half marathon with a time of 1:18:54.
Friday afternoon and evening, thousands of runners from all across the country filled the Music City Center for the race expo. They picked up their official race shirts, numbers, and had the chance to take advantage of coupons and free samples.
Several major roadways were also closed for much of the day as a result of the race.
Organizers said despite earlier concerns about warm weather, only a few, minor medical issues were reported.

A master planning effort for Wyandotte Park that began last month continues on Thursday, November 29, with a second public meeting to discuss park improvements. The meeting takes place at 6 p.m. in the Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club, located within the park at 1010 Beecher Street.
This is the second in a series of public meetings to give citizens an opportunity to interact with Metro Parks officials and consultants from Environment Design Collaborative. The meetings will result in a new plan that will guide future improvements to the park as funding becomes available.
At the November 29 meeting, citizens can review and comment on an early draft of the master plan for Wyandotte Park; their feedback will guide revisions to the plan.
For those unable to attend the meeting, the draft master plan will be available for review in early December on the project's web site. At that site, participants can also sign up for an e-mail notification list for future meetings, view information about the project as it proceeds, and offer online feedback to the project team.
The planning effort was made possible with $85,000 in funding that was provided by Mayor Jerry Abramson and Metro Councilwoman Marianne Butler in the city's capital budget. A portion of those funds will also be used to begin implementing the master plan once it's finalized. The project is part of Abramson's City of Parks initiative to expand and improve the city's park system.
In addition to the master planning project, the Cincinnati Reds have agreed to work with Metro Parks to improve youth baseball fields in the park and help start a new youth league there.
Wyandotte Park is a 25-acre park at Taylor Boulevard and Beecher Street that was designed in 1935. It currently includes tennis and basketball courts, a picnic shelter, restrooms, a playground, a walking path, baseball fields and a croquet court. The park also has an old outdoor swimming pool that was permanently closed after the 2006 summer season because of significant structural failures.

You trust us to choose thoughtful, provocative work and produce it at the highest level. You let us challenge you as
we strive to challenge ourselves. This mutual commitment and trust are the very core of Third Rail's success.
By donating to Third Rail, you are ensuring our ability to continue to surprise, delight, and entertain you. Many people

So, thank you for partnering with us. We'll continue to bring you inspired theatre at a level you've come to expect.
We think that's the best way to show our appreciation for your generous support.

Remember! Match your donation to Third Rail with an equal donation to
the Oregon Cultural trust, then claim that amount as a tax credit (ie,
reduce the amount you owe) on your Oregon tax return. That's right,
you can dictate how you want your tax dollars allocated! The Trust
