St. Louis Blues defenseman Ian Cole has been suspended for three games for his hit on Detroit Red Wings forward Justin Abdelkader Saturday night.
Cole, 22, received a two-minute minor for hitting Abdelkader in the head. Abdelkader left the game for observations, but would later return and score a goal in Detroit's 3-0 win.
Cole has one goal and four points in 13 games for the Blues this season, his second with the team.

One thing that made me laugh during Smackdown was this fan going bonkers when Kane assaulted Orton to end the show.
Really couldn't resist, so I took a screenshot.

This is going to be the greatest Wrestlemania in years!
WWE Wrestlemania XXVIII PPV Predictions
WRESTLEMANIA is upon us!!! I have not been more excited for a PPV (since the Royal Rumble). My 2nd favorite PPV of the year is here and boy it is going to be huge!
WWE Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match: Primo & Epico (WWE Tag Team Champions) w/Rosa Mendes vs Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd vs The Usos
Okay, so this match isn't actually on the PPV. It's a dark match that they're going to stream for free on WWE.com and/or Youtube at 6:30 PM EST/3:30 PM PST. It's a pretty smart business decision since they're trying to get some last minute (on the fence) people to purchase the PPV. What better way to do it than to let them watch this match for free and let them see how big, cool, awesome, etc... everything will be at Wrestlemania?!
I don't expect a title change here since it's not really on TV. Really not much to say about this match other than the fact that it'll be fun.
My Prediction: Primo and Epico retains the WWE Tag Team Championship by pinfall.
World Heavyweight Championship Match: Sheamus vs Daniel Bryan (World Heavyweight Champion) w/AJ
Hard to believe that just one year ago, Sheamus and Daniel Bryan had a dark match for Wrestlemania. Now they're both in a championship match. Great going!
Daniel Bryan has been a pretty damn entertaining World Heavyweight Champion. He cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase back at the TLC PPV and has overcome every single obstacle thrown at him. He turned heel by being obnoxious and a coward. I don't mind the obnoxious part, but I hate that every heel has to be a "coward".
Sheamus won the Royal Rumble and he chose Daniel Bryan because he hasn't held the World Heavyweight Title before. Sheamus is your typical "I'm going to destroy anyone in my way" type of guy. He's been on a roll since the Royal Rumble and Daniel Bryan is supposedly scared to face him.
I hope this match goes at least 15 minutes. It should be great because we know both of these guys can wrestle. I hope Daniel Bryan can retain the title because he is so good as a heel champion. Personal feelings aside, I think Sheamus is going to prevail and become the new World Heavyweight Champion.
My Prediction: Sheamus wins the World Heavyweight Championship by pinfall.
Kelly Kelly & Maria Menounos vs. Beth Phoenix (Divas Champion) & Eve
The only reason this match is happening is because they somehow got a celebrity to appear in this match... just like Snooki last year. There really is no story here other than the fact that Beth Phoenix and Eve went on the show Extra because they're mad Maria wanted to interview Kelly Kelly only.
Maria has wrestled in two matches with the WWE before and has won them both. This will be no different because there is no way a celebrity will lose. Since Beth is the champ, I guess Eve will be the one taking the pinfall here.
My Prediction: Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos win by pinfall.
Team Johnny (David Otunga, Mark Henry, Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler, The Miz, & Drew McIntyre) w/John Laurinaitis, Vickie Guerrero, and Brie Bella vs Team Teddy (Santino Marella, Zack Ryder, R-Truth, Kofi Kingston, The Great Khali & Booker T) w/Teddy Long, Aksana, Hornswoggle, and Nikki Bella
Winner to become GM of both RAW and Smackdown
Quick side note before I talk about this match. Christian was originally on Team Johnny but apparently his recovery from his ankle injury isn't ready yet... so they took him out of this match and replaced him with Drew McIntyre. But there was a stipulation for Christian joining Team Johnny and that was if Team Johnny won the match, he would get a title shot. So we'll see if that plays in when he is healthy again.
Anyway, here's that big tag match that puts many superstars in the PPV. Team Johnny and Team Teddy, winner gets control of both shows. It's pretty obvious who is going to win here. Teddy Long has worn out his welcome as the GM of Smackdown. "I'm going to book a Tag Team Match playa!"
John Laurinaitis has sure come a long way ever since he feuded with CM Punk. He has been entertaining as hell. No wonder why they call him Mr. Excitement!
Anyway, this isn't a elimination match (though it should be). So expect one huge cluster**** of a finish with everyone hitting their finishing moves on each other. I'm looking for David Otunga, the captain for Team Johnny to get the pinfall victory on Santino, the captain for Team Johnny.
My Prediction: Team Johnny wins by pinfall.
Intercontinental Championship Match: Cody Rhodes (Intercontinental Champion) vs Big Show
This one is going to be tricky. Cody Rhodes has had the upper hand on this feud because he's made fun of the Big Show nonstop. His reason for pissing off Big Show is because he's not afraid of him. He knows Big Show will choke at Wrestlemania. According to WWE.com, Big Show's record at Wrestlemania is 3-8. The majority of the time, Big Show has been in joke matches since it's hard to book him in a match.
But here is one thing you probably didn't know about Big Show. It turns out that he is the only superstar to have ever held the WWE, WCW, World Heavyweight, ECW, WWE Tag Team, WCW Tag Team, United States, and Hardcore Championship. The only title that has alluded him has been the Intercontinental Championship. Going into this feud, I was almost certain that Cody Rhodes is going to win and it'll propel him to the main event level. Now I'm not too sure... because Big Show needs to make history.
My Prediction: Big Show wins by pinfall.
Hell in a Cell Match: Undertaker vs HHH
Special Guest Referee: HBK
This match is going to be great. I cannot wait. The feud was set up pretty good but it could have been better. Basically, since it's Wrestlemania time, Undertaker shows up again. He wants a rematch against HHH but HHH declined. The reason HHH declined was because he said even though he lost the match last year, it was Undertaker that had to be carried out. Undertaker didn't want his legacy to be remembered as the guy who had to be carried out.
HBK then shows up on RAW and tried to get HHH to fight Undertaker one more time. HHH still refuses until Undertaker mentioned that HHH is afraid that he is not better than Shawn Michaels. Then seemingly out of nowhere, HBK said he was appointed the referee in this match. That's my only gripe on the feud. It would have been better if HHH or Undertaker asked him to be a ref, so he can witness it himself.
Either way, they're only leaning one side in this match in terms of story and that is HBK will help HHH win the match because HBK wants Undertaker to lose his Wrestlemania streak. Shawn thinks that if he couldn't end the streak himself, he'll help HHH. Undertaker wanted HBK to stay neutral by saying that HBK is better than HHH. This way, if HBK helps HHH win the match, then HHH is better than Shawn.
Does any of that make sense? Good. Oh, and they're fighting inside Hell in a Cell since these two made that match famous. Don't get excited about them possibly actually using the cell as a weapon... because they won't.
I'm thinking this match goes 30 minutes at least... not including the video package and entrances. The main focus will be whether or not HBK interferes really. I think he'll stand aside and tease helping HHH throughout the whole match. Up until the end where HBK will most likely give HHH a Sweet Chin Music to secure Undertaker's streak at 20-0.
My Prediction: Undertaker wins by pinfall.
Kane vs Randy Orton
After a big match like Taker/HHH, we need a bathroom break match. And unfortunately for Orton and Kane, that's what they'll have to put up with. Now Orton has been injured with a concussion here and there, which is why he doesn't really have a big feud leading up to Wrestlemania. Kane meanwhile, got buried by Cena (who didn't embrace the hate)... what a waste.
Kane then went after Orton because he shook Orton's hand last summer after the two fought. Kane said it was that handshake he offered that made Kane realize he's not the monster he should be. I guess that's reason enough for him to go after The Viper. I honestly don't care who wins, nor am I excited about this match. I think Orton will win with an RKO just because he's Orton.
My Prediction: Randy Orton wins by pinfall.
WWE Championship Match: CM Punk (WWE Champion) vs Chris Jericho
This match has the best odds of being a potential show stealer. CM Punk vs Chris Jericho. Now, Jericho came back to the WWE because he has always been known as the best in the world at what he does. CM Punk has recently called himself the best of the world as well.
This feud was perfect the way it was until Jericho started mentioning Punk's father and sister. Storyline wise, Jericho is suppose to be the master of mindgames and he is screwing with Punk. I personally thought their feud was fine originally. The match should have just been to show who was the best in the world, period. There will be lots of near-falls in this match (but what match wouldn't have it at Wrestlemania)?
I'm going to have to pick Jericho as the winner here because he didn't win the WWE Championship at the Elimination Chamber PPV. I mean, what would be the point of bringing Jericho back if he wasn't going to win the WWE Title from Punk? We all know Jericho is leaving again the summer, so a short title reign will have to do.
My Prediction: Chris Jericho wins the WWE Championship by pinfall.
John Cena vs The Rock
And finally... the biggest match of them all. The match that was booked ONE YEAR in advance is finally here. I'm not going to hide it (though I'm sure you already know) that I'm on Team Bring It. I really dislike Cena.
We have John Cena, the modern day Hulk Hogan against The Rock, arguably the best guy on the mic in the history of the WWE.
As you already know... John Cena has catered mostly to women and children. He doesn't have more than 5 moves in his arsenal and he can go into Super Cena mode at any time to win the match. This is the MAIN REASON as to why everyone hates him.
The Rock on the other hand, left the WWE to become a movie star. Success. The Rock was huge back in the Attitude Era and he wants to make history by winning here. The reason why The Rock is going after Cena is because Cena is the biggest superstar of this era. The Rock said he wants to be known as the guy who has beaten Stone Cold, Hulk Hogan, and John Cena.
Back at Wrestlemania 18, when The Rock defeated Hulk Hogan... I considered that as a "passing of the torch" from Hogan to The Rock. Unfortunately, I see the same thing happening here at Wrestlemania 28. Let's face it... what John Cena said is true. After Wrestlemania, The Rock will disappear again to make his movies and John Cena will still be here. With that said, it's pretty obvious when you have to decide who should win as opposed to who will win.
No doubt these two will go back and forth. The Rock will use the People's Elbow, John Cena will counter with the Five Knuckle Shuffle. The crowd (I think) will be 75/25 in favor of The Rock. So unless WWE wants to have more matches between these two, Cena is going to win it.
My Prediction: John Cena wins by pinfall after 2-3 Attitude Adjustments.
There is also late breaking news/rumor that Brock Lesnar is schedule to be at Wrestlemania. Internet reports say that he signed a one-year deal to return! Guess we'll have to wait and see what happens. Either way, enjoy the PPV folks! Share your thoughts here, don't be shy!

5 things we now know about Obamacare
The Affordable Care Act's bumpy October has revealed some things about the law that we didn't know -- or had forgotten. Here's a look at the lay of land.
This post comes from Rob Berger at partner site The Dough Roller.
We've learned a lot about Obamacare in the past week. While the trouble with the HealthCare.gov website has monopolized the news, the site will eventually get fixed. What's here to stay, however, are the lasting changes the Affordable Care Act has made to health care and medical insurance.
Here are the five things we now know about Obamacare that could affect your health insurance and medical care.
1. Premiums will go up for many people
Notwithstanding promises to the contrary, it's now clear that premiums will be going up for many. Why? There are three key reasons.
First, Obamacare requires all health insurance plans to meet certain standards. The intention behind the rule was to make sure that policies meet what government officials deemed to be minimally acceptable standards. They call these standards "Essential Benefits." While some view this as protecting consumers, the protection comes at a price. Lower cost policies that do not meet these standards are being cancelled by insurance companies and replaced with more expensive polices.
Second, the policies don't have any spending caps. While there may be good policy reasons for this rule, it comes at a significant cost that will be paid by those buying the insurance.
Third, health insurance companies can't charge more if you have a pre-existing condition. While such a rule helps those who previously were uninsurable, it also comes with a cost. The cost is born by those who do not have a pre-existing condition. How? Those who are healthy will pay more for insurance than they otherwise would to offset the cost of insuring those with existing medical conditions.
2. Many people will lose their current insurance
Contrary to promises made when Obamacare became law, it's now clear that millions will be unable to keep their current policies. As noted above, Obamacare requires health insurance to cover certain Essential Benefits. The law was written to allow some existing policies to be grandfathered from this requirement, allowing people to keep less expensive policies.
Regulations written to implement the law, however, gutted the grandfather provision. According to CBS News, more than 2 million will get booted from their existing coverage.
3. You don't have to buy through the exchanges
One fact lost in all the noise is that in most cases one doesn't have to buy individual health insurance through the exchanges. Consumers can still buy insurance through sites like eHealthInsurance.com. For the moment, however, consumers must go through the exchanges if they qualify for and want to take advantage of subsidies.
4. Obamacare is immensely complicated
Obamacare is an extremely complicated law. That fact is nothing new. But the recent problems surrounding HealthCare.gov underscore just how complex the new law is. Perhaps the most complicated aspect are the subsidies. Information must be obtained from the IRS to determine if an individual qualifies for a subsidy, and if so, for how much. This information, along with information about the insured, must then be transmitted to the insurance carrier. The result is a website that thus far has cost more than $600 million to build. That's less than Facebook spent in its first six years of operation.
5. The exchanges offer limited choice of doctors
To keep costs down, many insurance companies in the exchanges limited the number of doctors in the network. The policies tend to have fewer hospital networks, and many don't have academic medical centers in the network, according to CNN. The result is that shoppers will need to make sure the doctors and hospitals they want are available with the insurance they buy.
More from The Dough Roller
I can't believe it. MSN actually has an article that is fair and balanced. I can't wait for the independents that swayed the election to Odumbo get hit with the higher premiums. I will get a large popcorn and sit back and watch the show. The previews have been splendid so far.
"We have to pass it to see what's in it."
"If you like your plan you can keep it."
"It will only cost $xx."
"Your premiums will go down."
"It's not a tax."
"It is a tax."
Michelle Obummer's college pal got the no bid contract and f'd it up.
Hundreds of plans exempted for those connected to the democrat party.
Hundreds of thousands had hours reduced below 30/week due to ACA.
And this is just the beginning folks.
Fool us one term shame on Barry. Fooled us two terms, Shame on the American People for being SO stupid. What a travesty.
This is really not a Dem Vs. Repub issue though. Our Government is screwing us over more and more every day. Look at the big picture, it's too obvious not to see it.
Sad thing is most of you sheep will bend over and take it, mindlessly glued to your stupid time wasting "social" media distractions and still run around supporting Obama. Wow people, just wow.
Considering our Constitution only has 45,000 words that we have honored and survived for over 200 years, and this Odumbocare contains over 5 BILLION WORDS, could be we are in for the ride of our lives.
People, no matter your party affiliation, we all need to wake-up and get back to the basics our founding fathers anticipated for our great nation.
All of these fools are lying to us everyday. None of them could survive a "Middle class lifestyle".
Let's hesitate passing judgment on each other because of party affiliation and take a closer look at our "LEADERS".
The government does not support us , WE SUPPORT THEM!
My breakfast cost less than Facebook spent in its first six years of operation. That's not a very meaningful value. I think this poor writer meant *more* and not *less*. But it's rather strange to confuse a word with its antonym.

|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Robert Fishman
Ph.D., Yale University, 1985
Research and Teaching Interests
Comparative political sociology, cultural and historical sociology, consequences of inequality
Robert M. Fishman is a comparativist who works on democracy and democratic practice, politics and culture, and consequences of inequality. Fishman's books include Democracy's Voices, winner in 2005 of Honorable Mention for Best Book in Political Sociology, The Year of the Euro (with Anthony Messina), and Working-Class Organization and the Return to Democracy in Spain. Both Democracy's Voices and Working-Class Organization have also been published in Spanish. Fishman's published papers, many of which are available on his web page, include theoretical analyses – differentiating between states and regimes in democratization and critiquing the concept of social capital – as well as methodological work on the Weberian approach to social science and on the rationale for studying labor movements from the perspective of workplace leaders. Fishman has also published papers on European integration and on sociological determinants of priestly vocations as well as other themes.
Fishman is currently writing a book analyzing differences in democratic practice and societal outcomes between "third wave" pioneers Portugal and Spain, the Iberian Peninsula neighbors which, through nearly polar opposite pathways of change, initiated the late twentieth century's worldwide expansion of democratic rule. This work takes the juxtaposition between numerous historical and structural similarities of these neighboring societies and their major divergence after returning to democracy in the 1970s as the basis to pose a series of large theoretical questions on the functioning of democracy and the dynamics determining how well representative systems approximate the democratic goal of full political equality among citizens.

Acclaimed British actor Idris Elba (The Wire, Pacific Rim) plays the legendary South African freedom fighter in this rousing adaptation of Mandela's autobiography. From the first moment he speaks, sounding uncannily like the real Mandela, we feel we're there with the crusading lawyer as he battles South Africa's apartheid regime. This captivating film charts the many struggles that took Mandela from the rural Cape region, to African National Congress, to 27 years imprisonment, and then to President – the nation's first democratically elected leader. It reminds us that he has lived one of the most remarkable lives of our time.

New skate park on its way to Blaine
Published on Thu, May 13, 2010 by
By Tara Nelson
Read More
Local skateboarders can expect new equipment at the Blaine skatepark as early as July, Blaine City Council decided Monday.
In their regular meeting, council approved 6-0 a $19,000 contract with Spohn Ranch, a skateboard equipment manufacturer of California, for a new steel modular ramp system.
Blaine planner Alex Wenger said the new park equipment includes a series of Sphon Ranch's TruRide steel ramps, a quarter pipe, a centered deck, a ramp system with stairs, a grind rail and a bench.
The equipment was a result of a series of meetings between city planners and local skatepark users.
"We wanted a park that skaters would be interested in," Wenger said. "This is a really good product this company offers."
The new equipment is made from powder-coated galvanized steel, which is highly resistant to wear from weather and general use. He added that city staff hope to add more equipment in the next few years.
"It's not going to fill up the whole park but it will provide something for a wide range of skaters from beginning to more advanced," he said. "I think it's a nice first phase."
The equipment is scheduled for delivery within 45 days and should take only a few days to install.
Wenger said he hopes the equipment will be installed and functional by July.
"It would be great if we could get this in and ready by July Fourth," he said.
The city budgeted $20,000 for a modular ramp system as part of the park and cemetery capital improvement plan for 2010.

Game Recap: Astros 2, Cubs 1 - An Almost-Win
(with a teeny tiny contribution by Kurt)
This game was a perfect example of your typical "almost-win." Of course, an "almost-win" is as good as a loss--which is not very good at all.
The Great Carlos Zambrano was, as they say, "super awesome." He pitched eight innings tonight, allowing just one run, and gave the Cubs every opportunity to win tonight's game.
Unfortunately, the offense just wasn't there.
Well, let me clarify that statement--it was kinda there. The Cubs did collect five hits and two walks over the course of Wandy Rodriguez' seven innings. Unfortunately, the only guy that crossed home plate was Geovany Soto, and he got there himself by hitting the ball out of the park.
A game like this one begs a few questions. First, does it suck that Angel Guzman could hardly get an out in the ninth inning? Sure. But can you pin this one on him? I kinda think not. When your team scores one run in a nine-inning game, you can't really blame the pitchers.
Second: Are repeated occurrences of this sort of offensive drought avoidable? Not entirely, no. But Kurt has an idea that needs to be re-stated, reviewed, and then tattooed on to every Cub fan's forehead: HIT SORI LOWER!
Alfonso Soriano has been reeeeally bad lately. And he's also been getting the largest number of plate appearances in every game he's played in. He can't possibly hit any worse than he's been hitting lately; why not give the "middle-of-the-order" experiment another shot?
And finally: How awesome is Carlos Zambrano? The answer is, really, really awesome. As in, like, super awesome. It's just too bad that his stellar performance was wasted, although he has now lowered his ERA to 3.39.
The Cubs play the rubber game tonight.
In all fairness
Soto is slowly coming around at the plate. He is still a good 25 pounds heavier than last year. I apologize if he has insulin issues that has caused an uncontrollable weight situation for him. But his trend arrow is pointing somewhat upward.
Unlike Milton Bradley
I defer to what Brenley said
I defer to what Brenley said about Geo and his awkward swing. Sometimes that stuff is B.S., but sometimes it's true.
I'm giving Bradley a few days to get in the groove... any guy coming off a week plus of inactivity will look like re-fried shiz, but even if we don't white flag the '09 season we may have to fork the '09 version of Bradley. He's not coming around, not this year. Meet Moises Alou, 2002 Edition.


text: Tonight at the Verizon Center in Washington DC, the Eastern Conference-leading Rangers (22-8-4, 48 pts) visit the Capitals (17-15-2, 36 pts), the team which eliminated the Blueshirts from last spring's playoffs. Much has changed for both teams since then as the Rangers have put together an extremely strong and consistent start to the 2011-12 season, while the Caps have struggled so mightily that their former Jack Adams Trophy-winning coach Bruce Boudreau was fired and replaced by former Washington star center Dale Hunter. Under Hunter the Caps are 5-6-1, including a 4-2 loss Monday night to the Buffalo Sabres. The Rangers, meanwhile, won their fifth straight game Monday, shutting out the Islanders 3-0 behind Carl Hagelin's second three-goal outing as a Blueshirt. Interestingly, it was in the Rangers only other game so far against Washington this season---a 6-3 win back on November 25th---in which Hagelin made his NHL debut, and that John Mitchell also made his Rangers debut. Both hagelin and Mitchell picked up points in that game, and neither has come out oft he lineup since as the team has gone 12-3-1 over that span. Hagelin has six goals and nine points in those 16 games, while Mitchell has six points and recently received much praise from head coach John Tortorella for his extremely effective play with linemates Brandon Dubinsky and Brian Boyle. Share your predictions for tonight's game below,

Range DescriptionFound only in Sudan and Ethiopia. In Sudan, the bulk of the population is found in the Sudd swamps, with smaller numbers in the Machar marshes near the Ethiopia border. In Ethiopia, the Nile Lechwe occurs marginally in the south-west, in the Gambella National Park, where its survival is probably highly precarious because of expanding human activities (Hillman and Fryxell 1988; East 1999; Falchetti in press).

Police are getting involved after a Twin Cities man turned into an amateur detective to find out who stole his debit card -- and he developed some solid leads.
"On Monday morning, I got a call from the credit card company that there could be some suspicious activity on my card," said Dave, of Bloomington.
It's the last phone call that anyone wants to get -- but at first, Dave wasn't sure if he'd been a victim of identity theft or a stolen credit card.
"When I checked my wallet, there was no card. So, I knew there was someone who had possibly picked it up somehow, and I'm not sure how," he told FOX 9 News.
Yet, when most people would just call the bank and cancel the card, Dave went online to check and see where his card had been used. He found purchases at a gas station and grocery store in Bloomington and an Old Country Buffet in Richfield.
"When I contacted the restaurant, they had felt some regret that they had allowed someone to use my card without authorization -- but they did explain that they had video footage of this that I could take a review of if I was curious as to who did this to me," Dave recalled.
That electronic paper trail eventually gave him a clear picture of who had been using his card, and he uploaded that surveillance photo to Facebook. Now, Bloomington police are trying to track down that thief.
"If you lose a credit card, that's not a crime," explained Rick Hart, of the Bloomington Police Department. "It is a crime for someone to pick up a credit card and use it fraudulently."
In all, the man seen in the picture is suspected of racking up six to eight charges totaling less than $300. Still, Dave said he's surprised that the thief was so bold given that many establishments have surveillance cameras.
Anyone with information is asked to call Detective. Broen, of the Bloomington Police Department, at 952-563-8800.

Semiahmoo Yacht Club closes in on 25th anniversary
In the fall of 1981 Brian Bignell worked his way along the floats at the brand new and nearly empty Semiahmoo Marina, knocking on cabin tops and leaving flyers, announcing an organizational meeting of a new yacht club.
"He was the one who got us together originally," said Steve Thomas, 54, a charter and lifetime member of the group, now known as the Semiahmoo Yacht Club. Next year the group will celebrate its 25th anniversary.
"About 25 to 30 of us met in the chandlery, the boating supply store that served the 40 or so boats in the new marina plus the commercial vessel haul-out yard east of it," said Thomas, in those days living in the new marina aboard his 39-foot ferro-cement cutter-rigged sailboat Natoma Bay.
The yacht club now has well over 300 members, not all of whom own boats. "We're primarily a social club," said Candi Johnson, last year's member of the year and the wife of Jimmy Johnson, this year's new commodore, "and anyone can join. No boat? No problem."
"That's right," chimed in Commodore Johnson, "it's a great bunch of folks who are interested in boats but beyond that it's like the welcome wagon for the community. We really hope anyone with interest in being on the water will join us."
In a nice bit of historical continuity, Thomas worked for a few months at the old cannery that was still running on the site now occupied by Semiahmoo Resort. "The old APA was long gone," Thomas said, "but the buildings had been leased to Portion Pack, a company that processed and froze hake." He only worked there for a few months but can still literally point to the marks he made in the business, a few holes he drilled in the old factory's beams that can still be seen in the row of historical photos near what is now Packer's Restaurant.
A San Diego native, Thomas named Natoma Bay for a feature on a favorite southern California lake. He built her himself, laying the keel in 1975. "I sailed to Mexico and then to Hawaii," he smiled, "and then here, and I haven't left yet." He's now in the process of a major re-fit after sailing and living on the boat for 30 years, which is why he's moved to the Blaine Marina.
"They'll let me live and work on the boat while it's still in the water over here," he said, "whereas Semiahmoo likes you to haul out." The haul out yard presently in use by the chandlery's current owners, Bob and Susan Brooks, still has the marine railway tracks in place that served the old yard.
Bignell now lives at Harrison Hot Springs, but was the club's founding commodore. Thomas was rear commodore for seven years, then commodore for three, spending a total of about 15 years on the executive committee. "There were more sailboats than power boats then," he said, "and that seems to be coming back."
Dr. Larry Larson, a powerboat member, agreed. "Our next group cruise is this weekend to Sucia, where for the first time in a long time we'll have a sailing race around the Sucia group as a part of the weekend," said Larson. He and his wife Bonnie operate the Krogen 39 Maggie B, along Blaine city council member Mike Myer's MikCa one of two in the harbor.
Jimmy and Candi Johnson run a boat dedicated to the pursuit of the wily Pacific salmon, a Parker 25 named Houston after the city they're from. They've brought a measure of irrepressibly persistent Texas enthusiasm with them and look forward to helping initiate a sail training program on Drayton Harbor in collaboration with Drayton Harbor Maritime, one of whose board members, Ron Snyder, will shortly be bringing a fleet of wooden dinghies to Blaine.
"We've taken Jim Jorgenson's 'Salmon-ar' (seminar) on how to catch salmon," Candi said, "so now the fish need to know that we're ready. Anytime. Come on in," she laughed.

Burglary business damaged by the economy
Recessions usually make crime rise, but not the latest one
Burglaries are falling sharply, very sharply, since 1973.
The number of victims per thousand households has dropped from just over 100 thirty-five years ago to under 40 last year, according to the Bureau of Justice. It appears the cause is, at least in part, the recession.
So far, 2009 has shown an even larger improvement than last year did. Burglary rates are down by as much as a third in some cities.
A number of municipalities have seen modest drops in burglaries, but in some large metropolitan areas like St. Louis and Boston, the drop has been dramatic.
Richard Rosenfeld, a sociologist at the University of Missouri-St. Louis who has studied crime trends, said rates typically rise during a recession, especially property crimes, according to the AP.
Some law enforcement officials say that the falling price of cooper and scrap metals have cut back home robberies. The commodities sell for so little, it is hardly worth the risk of a break-in. But, most law enforcement officials would point to improved crime fighting techniques including those advancements made due to technology.
New York City has had a notable drop in crime since Rudolph Guiliani decided the police force should target crime and make arrests for even minor infractions. He and police chief William Bratton used the theory that questioning the perpetrators at the bottom of the crime food chain would help them find people higher up in the pyramid of illegal activity. A rise in arrests also sent a message that almost no crime would go unpunished.
It is an odd recession when even crooks are out of work.

Homework Together
Homework can be something that not only complicates a kid's life, but the whole family if they're stressing out about it. In order to simplify our family's life and instill good homework ethic, we sit down at the table everyday after school and do homework together as a family. Now our boys are young and it doesn't take long, but if we can use this simple habit for years to come I think I lives will be a little bit less stressful.

Something that hasn't been mentioned yet is that Santa Fe has some great Native American Pueblo Pottery shops. My favorite is actually a new place, Fox Pueblo Pottery, which is inside another gallery called Traders Collection downtown. It's right near the plaza, and the owner has selected some gorgeous pieces. If you view his website (http://foxpueblopottery.com), you'll see that he really knows the market. Whether you are a collector or not, this is a great place to stop by, as it is one of the few places that sells genuine Native American antiquities here in Santa Fe.

Thanks for selecting the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts, the ONLY museum in the world devoted to contemporary Native art! I work here and consider myself so fortunate every day I come to work, so it's nice that others are taking notice of what we do. It's a very special place, unlike any other museum, full of the most cutting-edge contemporary work being produced by living Native Americans, First Nations Canadians, and Indigenous artists from all over the world. I invite you to visit, and please ask for me, Guin White, the Membership Director! I hope to meet you soon.

Reading all the recommendations I'm quite surprised not to find any hint at Petroglyph National Monument on the outskirts of Albuquerque. Those interested in N America's cultural heritage should not miss the various sites.

The best way to get from Albuquerque's Skyport to Santa Fe is by automobile, either rental(easy to access right at airport) or by van. There are several companies in Santa Fe who provide service as do some hotels.

Go to the NM State Capitol Bldg in SF, it's an art museum! All the halls of the capitol building are lined with artwork by New Mexico artists though the decades. If you wanted a survey of NM art, you will enjoy wandering the halls immensely. The hours for visitation are very flexible, but I recommend checking ahead.

My favorite relatively new gallery on the Canyon Road scene - yes, I like Canyon Road - is the William and Joseph Gallery. Originally opened in New Orleans but relocated to Santa Fe after Katrina, the gallery is friendly, inviting, and carries contemporary work that runs from very sophisticated to light and fun. The owner is always warm and happily recommends other galleries and things not to miss in the area. I've been going to Santa Fe for several years and by far its my favorite gallery. They have a good website too: www.thewilliamandjosephgallery.com

Forgot to mention my best shopping spots! Definately, on the Plaza, Street Feet for wonderfully priced shoes and clothes! Great staff....I've shopped with them for over 20 years and never been disappointed! Since I'm not living there anymore, guess I will have to go out twice a year to purchase shoes and clothes. The Christmas Shop on Palace, owned by Rick is by far the best Christmas shop I've ever been in! We have been shopping in this store before Rick even owned it, I think since 1992.

One place that wasn't mentioned, and because it is mostly adults writing, I, as a grandmother, must say go to the Children's Museum. It is phenominal......my grandkids love it! I've gone many times by myself and photograph children enjoying themselves (of course with permission) Secondly, there is Santa Fe Photography Workshops, for any photo enthusiast it is a must to check it out and hopefully participate in a workshop! The Chapel in Chimayo.....I have taken every guest I've ever had at our home there to see this very quaint and interesting chapel! Worth the short drive!

If you are in Albuquerque, take the NM Railrunner train to Santa Fe & back on a sunny day. An all-day rail pass costs all of $7, and you can buy it online if you can print it out. Board the train at one of its several terminals in Albuquerque. The ride and scenery are great all the way up & back. The train ride ends right in the heart of Santa Fe. You can even take your bicycle with you.

For a really different Art Experiance go to The Meowwolf. Only present in Sante Fe for about two years, this gallery started by mainly two young men in their mid-twenties, it has been recognized not only by the local art crowd, but also has gained interest in larger Galleries in New York and Los Angeles for their unique style and awesome way of displaying it. This "MEOWWOLF" has me howling!!

PHOENIX (AP) - Firefighters are concerned about new wildfires igniting in the Southwest during the hot, dry weekend.
National Interagency Fire Center spokeswoman Jennifer Smith says crews are especially worried about wildfires igniting in the Four Corners region where the borders of Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Arizona intersect.
She says some of the strongest parts of a high pressure system are expected to be parked over the area through the weekend, where forecasters are calling for lightning but little to no precipitation.
Scientists say that the jet stream, the river of air that dictates weather patterns, has been more erratic in the past few years. It's responsible for weather systems getting stuck, like the current heat wave. Scientists disagree on whether global warming is the cause of the jet stream's behavior.

Say "No" to Magnesium Stearate!Numerous studies have shown that stearic acid (one of the two components found in magnesium stearate) is toxic! Some of the most alarming research found regarding stearic acid is that it has been shown to be immuno-suppressive! Stearic acid has been confirmed to suppress T-cell function (immune function) in several landmark articles which were published in Biochemistry in 1989 and also in Immunology Magazine in 1990 and 1994. In addition, stearic acid (found in almost EVERY capsule and tablet sold) has been shown in human and animal studies to cause "programmed cell death" (apoptosis) in both heart and nerve tissue as published in both the American Journal of Medical Sciences in 1999 and the Journal of Neurochemistry in 2003.

Anders Breivik and the Far Right
Last summer, 32 year-old Anders Behring Breivik committed the worst atrocity in post-war Norway when he murdered over 80 of his fellow Norwegians. Though Breivik was quickly branded a 'lone wolf', the reality was that he was well embedded within a much broader European far right milieu that spanned from his earlier participation in the radical right-wing Norwegian Progress Party, to his support for prominent far right blogs such as Gates of Vienna. Today, and having been declared sane, the trial of Breivik begins. To provide context for the trial, we are publishing an interview that the Economist held with Dr Matthew Goodwin shortly following the attacks last June.

shit. I'm going to be single forever?
Am I too picky? Am I not picky enough and waste my time on these dickheads?
And then I think. fuck that. I know a) I'm a catch and I'm not fucking crazy and b) I'm not settling. I don't have delusions of grandeur when it comes to romance.. I don't want some knight in shining armor. That shit is for the birds.
What I do want is a complement to myself and where I am in life. Someone to call me on my bullshit, and someone I want to spend time with, meanwhile keeping my own identity. Someone who my girls love and can go out with him even without me and its not weird for anyone. It's not too much to ask, because I've seen it.
So now I'm stuck. Do I continue to go on dates.. and hope that one of these guys ends up being "that guy" (I don't like saying "the one".. b/c who knows.. there definitely is "the one for that point in life" which may happen to be your whole life.. but who can say..) OR do I just stop looking as to what's out there and hope for the best. I generally like being proactive with my life.. being idle was never my thing. But maybe it's worth a shot.
Dating is fun.. and is also bullshit. Meh.

Comments about Roland BK-5 Backing Keyboard:
I've been buying products from Sam Ash for over 30 years. This is the first one I have to send back. The sound quality is equal to a lot of toy models less than $100. I was very disappointed with the sounds of this keyboard. Even the GM sounds Roland came out with 20 years ago sound much better than the sounds on this keyboard.

CINCINNATI (AP) -- Cincinnati will appeal a county judge's ruling that would allow the demolition of a home once owned by a Procter & Gamble Co. heir.
The Cincinnati Enquirer (http://cin.ci/xGU2tp ) reports the City Council on Wednesday ordered the solicitor to appeal the ruling, despite his warning that an appeal likely would not succeed.
The foundation that owns the former James Norris Gamble home has said it's beyond repair. Gamble lived in the 13-room Victorian mansion from 1875 to 1932.
The head of the Cincinnati Preservation Association says it has asked the foundation to allow more time for the group to raise money to restore the house.
Preservationists worry that a ruling allowing for the demolition of the house would make it tougher to protect other properties with historical significance.
Information from: The Cincinnati Enquirer, http://www.enquirer.com
