A contributing factor as to why the early eliminations might have happened was that the Saints drew tough brackets according to Head Coach Gene Hildebrandt. "In all the 30 years I've been coaching - we've never had worst draws for everybody."
Four senior Saints wrestlers stepped onto the mats for the last time in their high school careers last week at the Individual State Wrestling Tournament in St. Paul.
All of the Saints, Cody Hanson at 113, Zack Gleiter at 152, Devin Wolle at 182 and Victor Torres at 285 were eliminated in the early rounds.
A contributing factor as to why the early eliminations might have happened was that the Saints drew tough brackets according to Head Coach Gene Hildebrandt. "In all the 30 years I've been coaching - we've never had worst draws for everybody."
It was the bad luck of the draw for the Saints. If your coming in as a second place finisher out of a section, a wrestler will be pared against a first place winner in a bracket. More than just their first place matches, the Saints were up against tough wrestlers who ended up making it onto the podium at the Tournament. The Saints faced many of these wrestlers in the quarterfinal and semifinal sections of the brackets where they were placed.
Cody Hanson's first match was against a wrestler who finished fourth in the tourney.
Cody lost 5-1 to Joey Majerus, but Cody just missed picking up a takedown at the end of the first period because time ran out.
Majerus also picked up a takedown later in the match where the two refs calling the match had to have a discussion as to whether Majerus got the takedown. The refs gave the Zumbrota-Mazeppa wrestler the two points. The match was closer than the score suggests.
Cody did not get another chance to wrestle because Majerus lost his second match. He got fourth through wrestle backs. The athlete who beat him was Spencer Jenninges of Wabasso, who ended up finishing second.
Zack Gleiter brought a surge of excitement to the Saints fans in attendance by winning his first round match. Zack was facing tenth ranked Nick Stafford who had a 5-0 lead on Zack when the Saint put Stafford on his back and pinned him at 1:42 of the first period.
Zack lost his second match to Sam McPhail of Pine Island who finished fifth at 152 in the Tourney. He then lost his first wrestle back match.
Devin Wolle at 182 got the toughest draw of all the Saints based on the fact he wrestled the athlete who won the State Championship.
Will Balow of Lake City beat Devin 6-1. That firve point loss ties for being the closest match Balow had for the Tourney. For the Championship, Balow beat the wrestler from the other side of the bracket, Chase Norton, 13-4.
Devin lost his wrestle back 12-6. He got way behind early and was coming on at the end of the match, but he ran out of time to overcome the lead of the other wrestler.
At 285, Victor Torres faced a foe he'd faced twice earlier and had been pinned by him twice. Victor faced Alex Schroepfer from Wabasso who was one of the favorites to win the Championship.
Torres was pinned by Schroepfer. There was hope that Victor would do well in the wrestle back brackets, but Schroepfer was upset in his second match, so Victor was out. The Wabasso wrestler lost to a wrestler who finished second.
Some of the tough brackets extended back to the section considering Richy Soto was in a bracket that had the State Champion and the wrestler who finished fourth in the state. They were the wrestlers who blocked Soto from going to State.
This year there were six state champs out of Section 4A.
Coach Hildebrandt said that after the matches were over he got time to spend time with the kids he coached throughout their Saints careers. "We got a chance to talk about life," Hildebrandt said.

non-sport cards and card collecting.
Like all collectibles, some sports cards increase in value and a few can become very valuable. Determining a card's value is based on a number of factors including the popularity of the player, the card's scarcity, it's condition, and demand among collectors. A card can be scarce but if there's no demand for it, it's value may not be to great.
Q: What are some of the ways to collect cards ? There are several different ways to collect cards. For example, you can try to collect all the cards in a given set. Or you can focus on cards of your favorite team or even just your favorite player.
Some people only collect Rookie cards while others only collect cards of Hall-of-Famers. Because of the high cost of vintage sports cards today a growingly popular way to collect sportscards is "Type Collecting".
"Type Collecting" is collecting just one of each "type" (or different issue) made. To keep costs down, on some of the scarcer more expensive issues you can simply add a less expensive "common" to your collection. While on more common or recent issues you can select your favorite player or a card from your favorite team.
No matter how you collect - the key is to have fun !
1952,1953,1954,1955 Red Man TOBACCORed Man Tobacco issued baseball cards in 1952, 1953, 1954 and 1955, making them the only tobacco company to do so since 1920. The cards are very attractive with a large, painted portrait and a short player's bio on the front. On the back is company advertising. 1/2" tabs at the bottom of each card could be exchanged for a prize. The exchange rate was 50 tabs for one free Big League style baseball cap. Thus, cards with the tabs still intact are much, much, harder to find making them more valuable.
Without the tabs it is difficult to determine which year certain players were issued. It is usually easiest to determine the year by looking at the expiration date on the back. Subtract 1 from the expiration year to determine the year of the card.
Each set is made up of 25 players from each league all personally selected by Editor J.G. Taylor Spink of the "Sporting News". Managers from each league were included in the 1952 and 1953 sets. The 1954 set had four different variations. If you ignore the many variations of the expiration dates, that brings the total to only 208 cards to complete your Master Red Man Tobacco Baseball Card Set !!! Start collecting now !

1964 Topps Stand-UpsTopps most popular 1960's test issue !!!
Blank-backed and unnumbered, these standard size cards were called "Stand-Ups". "Stand-Ups" refers to a type of card that was die cut around the player's picture. The background section then could be folded in half, so the card could stand up by itself while the player's picture stood alone. Directions for folding are on the background and when folded only the green background remains. 1934-36 Batter Up and the 1951 Topps All-Star sets are 2 other popular standup issues.
Thanks to the green and yellow borders and the likelihood that most cards have been heavily folded, 1964 Stand-Ups are extremely difficult to obtain in top grades.
The 77 card set features color photographs of the player on yellow and green backgrounds. 22 of the 77 cards were single printed making them twice as scarce and much higher in demand.
The set is packed with Hall-of-Famers including MICKEY MANTLE, Willie Mays, Sandy Koufax, Roberto Clemente, Carl Yastrzemski, Al Kaline, Brooks Robinson, Don Drysdale, Ernie Banks, Hank Aaron, Willie McCovey and more !!!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas. I'm sorry there was no blog Wednesday but I was really busy resting and wasn't able to find time to get one done. I thought about writing one though so that counts for something right?
The final weekend of 2012 is a busy one in the sports world as most teams and sports head back into full action after a brief break for Christmas. Blog writer take a brief break for Christmas too by the way. I think it's mandated by the NCAA. Anyway, this is also the final weekend of regular season NFL games and both of Missouri's NFL teams are playing teams who have major incentives to win. The Kansas City Chiefs play the Broncos in Denver in a game that could vault the Broncos into the No. 1 seat for the AFC thus giving the Broncos home field advantage through the playoffs. At the very least the Broncos could get a first round bye and not have to play next weekend. Denver has every incentive to win and will be looking to do so against the Chiefs who quite frankly will do more for their future by losing than winning. As screwed up as this season has been for the Cheifs it wouldn't shock me at all if the Chiefs win thus ruining their chances at the first overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft.
The St. Louis Rams are in Seattle to play the red hot Seahawks who only a few weeks ago looked near death and are now the hottest team in the NFL and in my opinion the most dangerous. The Rams hold a victory over the Seahawks this year but that was a different Seahawks team. The Rams are different too however and have been playing with much more confidence as of late so it could make for an interesting game. I predice the Seahawks will prevail though.
In college basketball we find the Missouri Tiger's men'st basketball team in Los Angeles to play the UCLA Bruins late Friday evening. The Bruins have not quite lived up to expectations this year while the Tigers in my mind have kind of exceeded them. It could make for a very interesting ballgame and will be a good test for the Tigers who will be playing their first true road game of the year as all the other ones have taken place on neutral courts.
Both Truman State Bulldogs basketball teams return to action this weekend with the men playing on Sunday and the women playing on Monday. Both games are at Pershing Arena. These will be the final non conference games for both teams before resuming their final season of MIAA play.
Both Kirksville High School basketball teams are at NCMC in Trenton on Friday for games. The girls have looked unbeatable thus far while the boys have been kind of up and down but are an improved team over last year's squad.
The KHS wrestling team doesn't resume action until January 3.
We have a big blog planned for Monday which will not only include a review of this weekend's sports action and my final chance to talk about how bad the Chiefs are but we will also look at the major bowl games next week as most of the major bowls will be played starting late Tuesday morning and continuing until the national championchip game on January 7. Yes, I know there have been bowl games going on for two weeks now but the Belk Bowl, Pizza Bowl, Potato Bowl, Beef O Brady Bowl, the Turnip Bowl, the Cucumber Bowl, and the Radish Bowl are not major bowls. By the way, I made up some of those bowls but it's up to the readers of this blog to figure out which ones. The Kansas City Chiefs are playing in the Toilet Bowl by the way. Please support the other blogs on this site written by people who would never admit they were too lazy to write a blog on Wednesday and thanks as always for supporting this blog whenever I bother to write one.
Have a terrific weekend!

(part 1)
Common - any card which is not short-printed, an insert, a bonus card, or has an insertion ratio. In short, the cards that comprise the manufacturer's basic set.
Condition - the physical appearance of a card/collectible. Centering, corner wear, photo clarity, edges, the presence of foreign material, signs of misuse are the critical components. Along with rarity/scarcity, it is a major factor in determining the value of a card or collectible.
Crease - an obvious paper wrinkle defect usually caused by bending the card [i.e.- the result of being tortured on a rear-wheel bicycle spoke during the early '50s and '60s].
Die-Cut - an insert/parallel card that differs from the basic card by a process of the manufacturer "cutting" portions of the card revealing a special design. Recent issues may also be individually and serially-numbered.
1967 Topps WHO AM I ?NM/MINT to MINT COMPLETE 1976 Crane Potato Chip Football Discs Set.
It's easy to see why the 1967 Topps "Who Am I? set is a favorite of both sports and non- sport collectors. The set's 44 cards feature mostly important figures from world history but what makes this set even more popular was the inclusion of 4 of baseball's most popular players: Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Sandy Koufax !!!
The players picture on the front is covered with a scratch-off disguise with silly, exaggerated features like hair, moustaches, hats, noses... and clues to help kids identify the famous person pictured. The backs contained additional clues and instructions to "Scratch off disguise on front to discover Who I Am. Use a coin or fingernail."
Cards with their scratch-off coating intact are worth many, many times cards with the coatings removed. For example, NM/MINT Babe Ruth with the coating is in the $200-$400 range while a NM/MINT Ruth with the coating removed is closer to $25.

"Although Bill Gates stepped away from his day-to-day role at Microsoft nearly five years ago, he still keeps a close eye on the company he co-founded - and he isn't always happy with what he sees. During a recent interview broadcast this morning on CBS This Morning, the Microsoft chairman was asked by Charlie Rose whether he was happy with Steve Ballmer's performance as chief executive. Noting that there have been 'many amazing things' accomplished under Ballmer's leadership in the past couple of years, Gates said he was not satisfied with the company's innovations." It's impossible to deny by this point that Microsoft hasn't done well in mobile. It would be more surprising if Gates had denied it.

Info concerning Dakota County Technical College criminal justice program, and registering for elective discussion sections and seminars. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? There are a variety of legal specialties that may appeal to you. For example, you may find employment as a police officer, court reporter, or law office administrator. Legal careers can range from working in a legal setting such as a courtroom or law office to corporate consulting or criminal justice. Preparing legal advice or representation for a client commonly requires substantial research into applicable criminal justice program regulations. All lawyers in the US must have a law degree and must also pass their state's written bar examination. Most states and jurisdictions require lawyers to complete a juris doctor (JD) degree from a law school accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA), including courses such as constitutional law, contracts, criminal justice, civil procedure, and legal writing. Students may complete an internship at a law firm, working under the supervision of an experienced attorney.
Many American attorneys limit their practices to specialized fields of law, and some states grant formal certifications recognizing specialties such as criminal justice. Criminal defense lawyers defend people accused of committing a crime, with the goal of reducing their sentencing or avoiding jail. Many lawyers who practice criminal defense had previous experience working for the prosecution in the district attorney's office. Personal injury lawyers handle cases involving accidents and injuries of any nature, with contingency fee ranging from 33% to 40%. A competent attorney can make all the difference when it comes to winning your juvenile justice program claim and recovering a settlement.
Most police officers and detectives, on the other hand, must graduate from the police academy, before going on to completing intensive on-the-job training as a rookie cop. Police academy candidates must be US citizens, at least 21 years old, and able to meet rigorous physical and personal qualifications, as well as a thorough background check. The median national salary for police officers is $62,000. Further, the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that there were approximately 120,000 detectives and criminal investigators employed in the USA. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Dakota County Technical College.
Graduates in the legal profession with either a bachelors or associates degree typically earn 60% more than employees with only a high school diploma, adding up to a $800,000 difference in lifetime earnings. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that new job openings within other fields of criminal justice will increase by 15% over the next decade. Ranked as one of the best jobs in America by CNN, job opportunities in the paralegal field are plentiful, due to rising legal fees, and the fact that more clients are demanding the use of paralegals. Court reporting is an alternative career path, involving transcription during court trials, depositions, and other legal proceedings.

National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets (US - BD RA)
Gabe goes on another treasure quest, though a good movie still eludes us...
Treasure seeker Ben Gates (Nicolas Cage) returns to the hunt after his family's honour is put into question by rival Mitch Wilkinson (Ed Harris), who offers alleged proof that Gates' ancestor, Thomas Gates, was not a Civil War-era hero, but an Abraham Lincoln assassination participant. Ben employs the help of his father (Jon Voight), side kick (Justin Bartha) and estranged girlfriend (Diane Kruger) in his journey, which leads him all over the world, and to the eventual conclusion that he must kidnap the President of the United States.
Book of Secrets is almost instantaneously a better film then the first National Treasure simply based on the visually rich opening sequence. Turtletaub seems to have taken a few lessons from Jerry Bruckheimer's other Disney cohort Gore Verbinski, and created a much more lush environment for his sub-Indiana Jones hero to roam. If there's one thing the Pirates of the Caribbean films got right it was atmosphere. Book of Secrets opens with the kind of 'historic flashback' the first film really could've used, and broadens the oh so two-dimensional canvas.
Following this sequence, things kind of devolve back to mediocre for the National Treasure crew. Book of Secrets suffers acute sequel-itus. The film begins with the characters exactly where we left them, only with a few convenient negatives tossed in to 'make things more interesting'. The hero lovers are having coupling trouble, the sidekick needs money again, and is feeling more inadequate than ever. Everyone that fought their way through adversity last time seems to be back in the same predicaments, more or less. The writers take a cue from the first Final Destination sequel, and upped the ante on the elements that worked best for the first film on the most basic entertainment level—namely the puzzles and car chases. Though I'd prefer a more intriguing narrative, I'm willing to take these visceral pleasures where I can get them. A dopey but fun movie is always better then a dopey and boring movie.
Nic Cage chews up a bit of scenery this time, which is a step up from part one, though his haircut is pretty distracting. The rest of the actors step it up a bit too, with the exception of Harvey Keitel and Ed Harris. Keitel channels Donald Sutherland from Oliver Stone's JFK and looks like he's about ready for his nap for most of his scenes, while Harris appears to have been digitally composited from about fifteen other 'bad guy' roles. Despite the case of same-ol' same-ol', the dialogue and humour kicks it up a notch, to the point that I actually laughed a couple of times, especially at Cage, though not, unfortunately at his comic relief.
The National Treasure transfer was top tier, and this one is another story higher. Turtletaub takes a more stylized approach to Book of Secrets. The whole film is more colourful, and the lighting is quite a bit more extreme, almost dancing into the realms of coloured film noir. The details are lifelike with minimal edge enhancement, and there's basically no compression noise. All 1080p is fully utilized, skin tones are supernatural, colours are separated, and quite vibrant. Edges are sharp, and as part of the more 'noir' look, contrasting blacks and whites are laser sliced. The transfer is basically problem free (even the grain is super fine).
Dolby Digital TrueHD is something I can actually listen to on my system, unlike the original films uncompressed PCM track. This track isn't fist wavingly aggressive, but for the material you'll be hard pressed to find a better audio track. The spatial representation of the track is wonderful. When on the streets of Paris, London, or D.C. the surround channels tremble lightly with the sounds of commerce and the dialogue is never lose in the shuffle or tuned to loudly. The stereo speakers are pretty much constantly throbbing with musical score, which is still pretty typical of the genre overall, but with a handful of surprises, and an overall better tempo.
This single Blu-ray disc collection is rather par for the Disney course, but houses a few pleasant surprises, and a few Blu-ray exclusive extras. Everything begins with a good humour commentary from director Jon Turteltaub and actor Jon Voight. Turteltaub is quite talky, and obviously excited not only by the process of making the movie, but by the series' obsession with historical factoids and conspiracy. Voight, who's never been the best commentator, tosses up a few interesting remarks, but this is mostly Turteltaub's track. I admit a slight increase in my respect for the film based on the historical accuracy the filmmakers strived for overall.
Unfortunately, the first of the Blu-ray exclusive extras, a pop up quiz track called 'Book of History' would not work on my player, though thankfully the menu system simply told me this rather than allowing me to try and fail several times. If your player has 'Bonus View' capabilities you may be in for a fine time.
There are seven deleted and extended scenes, each complete with their own director introduction, and each presented in full HD with 5.1 Dolby Digital sound. The first scene actually changes up the whole last act of the film a bit, and is really more of an alternate scene rather than a deleted one. The other six scenes, two of which are not on the DVD release (I'm not sure which two), are more traditional cuts, deleted for pacing and tonal reasons. In all they run somewhere around twenty minutes and thirty seconds. This is followed by a five-minute blooper reel.
The disc's featurettes begin with 'Secrets of a Sequel', which is you basic EPK. 'On Location' is a companion piece to the similar featurette on the original film's disc. The big deal this time around is the world-wide appeal of the locations, rather than places around Washington D.C. alone the last time around. 'Street Stunts' is a glance at the making of the film's big London car chase. 'Inside the Library of Congress' speaks for itself, and is filled with cast and crew basically agreeing with each other that the Library of Congress is totally boss. 'Underground Action' is a look at the sets and action of the film's last act. 'Cover Story', which concerns the mythical 'Book of Secrets', is more of the same, as is 'Evolution of a Golden City' and 'Knights of the Golden Circle'.
These featurettes are all pretty fluffy, almost exclusively made to sell the film, and are all too brief and filled with film footage to really teach the viewer anything. Most of them run somewhere between eight and ten minutes, though the most interesting one, 'Knights of the Golden Circle', only runs about two and a half minutes. Really this is a missed opportunity because the film is so historically centred, and ripe for decently staged documentaries. The disc spins out with the usual Disney trailers.
This is one very impressive looking disc, and it doesn't sound too bad either. The film itself is, in my opinion, a little more entertaining than the first National Treasure, but overall isn't particularly great either. This Blu-ray release carries two extra deleted scenes and a Blu-ray trivia game that you can't find on the DVD release, but odds are your player will have trouble working the game.

Well, Ghost Rider was very weird but I did hate Next. You're right. I couldn't agree more.

Ghost Rider is the best bad movie of the last decade. Watch it again and notice how much Cage realizes he's starring in a piece of c**p.

i thought i was not gonna like this, but it was better than the first one...
I thought that this movie was better than the original film. I'm not that fond over Nicolas Cage, though I liked the original National Treasure movie, this one and World Trade Center. I hated Ghost Rider and Next. I'm glad I got National Treasure: Book of Secrets for my birthday.
I thought it was slightly better than the first but more corny.I loved that one line about the president.
Did you find the four easter eggs yet, Gabe?

I have nothing against popcorn movies, just c**p popcorn movies and these movies certainly are c**p. Apologists be damned.

Lara Croft, The Mummy, National Treasure and Pirates of the Caribbean are all movies that have been influence by Indiana Jones series.
OK...once again, popcorn movies people!...and who cares how old Harrison Ford is?? He is Harrison Freakin' Ford!!
Hmmm... Harrison Ford may have hit 65 but I reckon it's Nic Cage who's looking a bit too old for this game now.
I liked these movies (which is odd as I hate Nicholas Cage). I would definetely watch a third.

Yours and mine both. C**p treasure hunters use MANY coincidences and very little action pieces to send audience asleep. Avoid like Nic Cage's hair stylist.

I watched them right in a row for the first time Chris, it likely had an effect on my choice of favorite.
I thought this was worse than the first one. Maybe my patience had run out.
Maybe it was hidden and I didn't find it.
Man I was really hoping for the 'How to Hook Up Your Home Theater' Goofy short that played in front of this in theatres to be included, but if it is I haven't spotted it yet. Bummer.
i thought the movie was really good its as good as the first although i thought the clues were solved to fast or didnt have much meaning in this but still a enjoyable movie. still watchin the bonus featurs and im Stoked to see the preview for Nightmare before christmas on blu ray this looks beautifull and will deffintly buy this first day it comes out.

Brokerage firm BGC Partners Inc. today tacked a third name onto its merged Newmark Grubb Knight Frank subsidiary as it recast a net on commercial real estate powerhouses in New Jersey by acquiring Philadelphia-based Smith Mack.
The deal marks BGC's second aggressive push into the South Jersey market, as the firm added an office in Marlton when it acquired Grubb & Ellis Co. in April, and it will gain a second Marlton office by folding Smith Mack into its NGKF subsidiary. BGC added Woodbridge-based Helios Capital Advisors in October to strengthen its capital markets group.
"Smith Mack has experienced the benefits of the dramatic transformation that has taken place since Newmark Knight Frank and Grubb & Ellis were acquired by BGC Partners … (and) its desire to join NGKF is confirmation that our expanded platform offers clients the best real estate solutions in the industry," said NGKF CEO Barry M. Gosin in a statement.
J. Robert Clements, executive vice president and managing director of NGKF's Philadelphia region, said the move is a logical one, noting Smith Mack and Newmark Knight Frank have been partners since 2009 — two years before BGC purchased the firm in October 2011 and merged it with Grubb & Ellis, which the parent company acquired for $30 million in senior debt.
"BGC's commitment to building up a powerhouse platform already has significantly strengthened our capability to service clients, and we are winning market share in the greater Philadelphia marketplace as a result," Clements said in a statement.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. As a result of the transaction, BGC will maintain New Jersey offices in Marlton, Princeton and Rutherford. NGKF employees will join virtually all of the existing brokerage and advisory professionals at Smith Mack's four offices in Marlton, Philadelphia, Wayne, Pa., and Wilmington, Del.

FRS radios are limited to 500 milliwatts in the U.S., according to FCC regulations. Channels 1 to 7 are shared with GMRS, the General Mobile Radio Service. A license is required for those channels only if the power output is over FRS limits, up to GMRS limits.
Similar services in other countries
Services similar to the American FRS exist in other countries, although since technical standards and frequency bands may differ, usually FCC-approved FRS equipment may not be used in other jurisdictions.
American-standard FRS radios have been approved for use in Canada since April 2000. The revised technical standard RSS 210 has essentially the same technical requirements as in the United States. Since September 2004 low-power GMRS radios and dual-standard GMRS/FRS radios have also been approved for use in Canada, giving additional channels.
Since tourists often bring their FRS radios with them, and since trade between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico is of great value to all three countries, the Mexican Federal Telecommunications Commission has authorized use of the FRS frequencies and equipment similar to that in the US. However, dual-mode GMRS/FRS equipment is not approved in Mexico, so caution should be exercised in operating FRS devices purchased elsewhere.
In Europe, a personal radio service with the same sort of licensing restriction is PMR446 having eight channels in the 446MHz range. One cannot legally use the FRS radio in Europe or PMR446 in the U.S. The 446 MHZ band is allocated to amateur radio in the United States, so in principle a licensed amateur operator could use non-FCC-type-accepted PMR446 radios in the U.S. in compliance with the rules for amateur radio operation. In Great Britain FRS frequencies are used for fire brigade communications and this sometimes causes problems when FRS equipment is imported from the U.S. and used without awareness of the consequences by members of the public.
Dual-mode GMRS/FRS equipment is approved in Brazil and most South American countries. Portable radios are heavily used in private communications, especially by security staff in nightclubs and shopping centers, but also in private parking, maintenance and delivery services.
A service similar to the American-style FRS in Hong Kong, is called Short Range Portable Radio (SRPR), Macau and China is also approved by respective organizations for legal license-free operation. However, different UHF frequencies with 20 allocated channels near 409 MHz are used. 462 MHz and 446 MHz band are not opened to FRS service, so European, U.S. and Canada residents are advised not to use FRS or PMR446 radios for communication when traveling to the mentioned areas.
In Japan, a similar service uses low-power in the 420, 421, 422 MHZ bands. In Australia and New Zealand, the UHF CB citizens band near 477 MHZ is used for a similar purpose.

Column published March 15, 2013 in The Mexico Ledger
100 Years Ago
"Thrifty housewives of this city in large numbers have taken advantage of the limited offer of the B.J. Johnson Soap company to exchange the wrappers from Galvanic Soap for a beautiful set of Rogers silver-plated spoons. The wrappers are redeemed through the local dealers, the spoons being given out at the local grocery stores. The offer and its prompt acceptance by many women of this city, have caused considerable excitement. The women save the outside wrappers from a hundred cakes of the soap, and in exchange for these they are allowed to select either half a dozen of the Rogers silver teaspoons; or three of the Rogers silver dessert or soup spoons. The spoons are of the exquisite I Vigne pattern, and are A-1 extra silver plate. No return other than the wrappers is asked by the soap company for the spoons. The offer is an unusual one, the spoons being given as a form of advertising to introduce Galvanic Soap into the homes of this city. It is too expensive to be continued long, the manufacturer says, and hence the offer is limited to May 1st."

"Miss Marcia Brinkman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Brinkman of 105 Arlington in Vandalia, has been selected as the delegate to attend the United Nations Pilgrimage of Youth which is sponsored by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and Rebekahs of America. Marcia, a junior at the R-1 High School, was selected on the basis of: character, scholarship, leadership, examination score, general fitness, ability to speak before a group, and the willingness to report the trip on her return to the community. She will make the UN Pilgrimage, a one week's trip to New York, sometime between June 16-August 6 in a group of 125 to 150 other delegates. Named as the alternate was Virginia Schwab, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leon Schwab, Vandalia."

Norman Merrell, who has served as senator of the 18th District of northeast Missouri for 15 years, will be a special guest. He and Linden L. Vanlandingham, president of the CEC Board of Directors, will present certificates of appreciation to retired directors of the cooperative. Byron L. Jahn, CEC manager since 1979, said 12 or 14 retired directors are expected to be in attendance. Mr. Jahn will be presenting awards to eight CEC employees for their dedicated service to the cooperative. Recipients will be Billy Bob Heckman, lineman, and Merry Sue Pace, clerk, each with 25 years of service; Betty L. Earle, clerk, 20 years; Robert A. Poage Jr., work foreman, 15 years; Raymond J.

"Arlee Home Fashions laid off 26 workers in their Mexico, Mo. plant recently in what company officials called 'a small layoff.' According to a release issued by Arlee, the decision was the result of 'a decline in customer orders resulting from a flat retail market.' Louis Smithey, general manager of four Missouri-based Arlee plants assured that there were 'no plans to close the plant.' The news release reported that the Mexico facility will continue to operate with a 'reduced but substantial staff of employees. The decision, made following an arduous review of current and projected production levels, was deemed necessary to ensure the future success of the company and those in its employ,' stated the release. An official count of employees could not be confirmed but City officials believe the number to be around 75 before the layoffs. A former Arlee worked reported to The Ledger that the 26 employees were told by plant management on Feb. 25 that they were being temporarily laid off for two weeks until new orders were secured. On March 7, the employees were then told they were being terminated, according to the ex-employee who asked to remain anonymous. Arlee Home Fashions, based in New York, has had a plant located in Mexico's Industrial Park since 1990."

The first Saturday of college football.
The first Saturday of college football. Ever since I was about five years old, it's probably been my favorite day of the year—and yeah, that's counting March Madness. As a loyal Michigan supporter — as I've probably preached to you all so many times by now that you're probably worn out by now (Just shut it, Jared, please! We get it!) — it's sometimes been the greatest day ever. While at other times, it's completely reached rock bottom for me. Of those shiny Michigan days of the past — the game-winning touchdown to Mercury Hayes as time expired in 1995, the 1997 Michigan defense giving Colorado a thorough beatdown, a nail-biting 26-22 victory over Notre Dame in 1999, a game-winning field goal by a guy who couldn't kick it in the ocean all day (Yes, Philip Brabbs, that's you!) to beat Washington at the buzzer in 2002 — to some of the darkest days ever known to man — Notre Dame destroying the defending champion Wolverines in the second half in 1998, as well as defending national champion Alabama clowning the Maize and Blue in front of the world last season. Yup, that was one of the worst. And yeah, you know, the whole debacle where some Division IAA team from West Virginia came to Ann Arbor and humiliated the Wolverines with a victory on opening day. "You don't have to tell me" — as the mighty Ace Ventura: Pet Detective once said. "I was there." Yup, my buddy and I all watched it unfold on that treacherously humid hot day inside the Big House. When we both rolled out of Ann Arbor that day, none of us thought we'd ever see Michigan as the same dominant force they were in the past. But even as the years rolled by, the annual Ohio State butt-whippings of the past decade, the four-year embarrassment of losing to that gang of green and white from East Lansing, and even the 3-9 season — which I never expected in all of my years of being obsessed with this group of fellas in winged helmets — we're both still here. As excited as ever. No matter what happens on the first Saturday of the college football season, it not only marks the greatest game in this country beginning, national powers looking to make first impressions on the country, and even guys like Johnny Manziel attempting not to throw out his arm because of a few alleged autograph signings, but it also marks the inception of the greatest two months in sports. With all due respect to March, it doesn't quite compare to the insanity that unfolds on September and October weekends in the fall — period. While college football begins for most teams all across the country on Saturday (Yes, I know that enormous, gigantic, inhuman freak-of-nate Clowney and South Carolina played on Thursday), we also know lots of other grand games we love are getting closer. Along with the wonderful college football game, we know the NFL is approaching as well. But even if the Lions will likely make us regret drinking their Honolulu Blue Koolaid for about the 9,599,500th time, the Tigers will likely be in the playoffs. But wait... there's more. Especially for this guy who thinks it's 100 percent ethical to stay up until 5 a.m. before watching an English Premier League match at 7:45 in the freaking morning! The point is—and I'm not coercing you to watch European 'football' while munching on a balanced breakfast (Thank you, McDonald's Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit meal with a nice Coca Cola at 8 a.m.)—there's nothing that beats this time of year. Whether you're going psychotic at the Wolverines on the HD like my friends normally do, or you're still complaining about Jim Leyland's lineup decisions this late in the season, or you're watching Rex Ryan's (He should have kept Tebow!) firing become more imminent every single week, or even you're lathering at watching Robin van Persie's soccer awesomeness at Manchester United (I might consider selecting door number four, in all honestly)—it's all a blast. Since that Appalachian State defeat in 2007, I haven't returned to the Big House ever since. But what I still know is, that opening Saturday of the college football season—and every weekend from the ninth and 10th months on the calendar—is nothing short of spectacular. When all college football teams take the field on Saturday, it's a beautiful day everywhere you might look. As a Michigan homer—yup, you know it—there's nothing like it. But when it sets the tone for everything else that unfolds, that's what makes sports better than anything else. On Saturday, it will all begin again. Fun. Excitement. Depression. Madness. Belligerence. Everything. Twenty some years have passed by as a college football fan, and it's always been a pleasure. Saturday will mark another one of those great days in my life. Even if the good or bad happens, this time of year is the best. So let's all cherish what she be considered a national holiday. Well, except if Wolverines miraculously fall to the mighty Chippewas in A-squared on Saturday, drowning all of the hype for a 14-0 season I've had since the New Year's Day loss to South Carolina last season. Enjoy everybody! Jared Greenleaf is the sports editor of the Cheboygan Daily Tribune. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 231-627-7144.

The Bastrop Police Department arrested a teen on Feb. 28 for leaving an infant alone in a vehicle, while he shopped for shoes according to Chief Downey Black.
Black said 19-year-old Henry Lee Liggens Jr. of 1215 West Walnut St. was arrested last Thursday and charged with child desertion after he left an infant in the car and went into GQ Fashions, a clothing store located on East Madison. Black said he's not sure what good Samaritan called in the incident, but they must have acted quickly because Liggens was only in the store two minutes after police arrived.
"They located Liggens still in the store," Black said.
Black said he is unsure if the infant was Liggens' child, but he knows the child wasn't harmed.
"It was cool that day, but I'm not sure what the temperature was inside the car," he said.
According to the arrest records, Liggens was not taken into custody, therefore he wasn't booked in at the Morehouse Parish Jail. Instead, he was issued an arrest summons that allowed him to leave the scene after officers questioned him.
Black said the child desertion charge that Liggens received was not a felony, but rather a misdemeanor. Situations similar to this have been deemed felonies, but the arresting officer who assesses the scene determines what charges the suspect should receive.
Child desertion, under Criminal Law 14:93.2.1, states that it is the intentional or criminally negligent exposure of a child under the age of 10 years, by a person who has the care, custody or control of the child.
Black said Liggens' charge coincides with the incident at hand. If he is found guilty, he could be fined up to to $500 and imprisoned for not less than 30 days or more than six months.
If the infant in the car had been injured, Liggens could have received a sterner charge, such as cruelty to a juvenile, which can carry a fine of $1,000 or imprisoned not more than ten years.

When Face Down makes their debut at Tom Foolery's Restaurant & Bar this Saturday, the quintet will serve up a hearty platter of tunes that some cover bands typically don't dish out.
When Face Down makes their debut at Tom Foolery's Restaurant & Bar this Saturday, the quintet will serve up a hearty platter of tunes that some cover bands typically don't dish out.
With approximately 60 songs in their repertoire, Face Down branches out beyond classic rock, covering bands like Cake, Bush, Alice in Chains, Audioslave, .38 Special and Jet. The outfit also prides itself on learning new songs immediately after they hit the radio.
Face Down drummer Damien Janocha — a 39-year-old resident of Magnolia whose big brothers Mark and Luke live in Middletown — shed light on some additional bands the New Castle-based outfit will cover, his experience playing in the group with his other big brothers Paul (bass) and Mike (guitar), and more.
Q How does Face Down compare to other cover bands?
A I think it's our selection of music. We're not really content with just being another cover band you see. I'm not trying to knock any other bands, but you'll go out and see them and hear some of the same songs that [other cover bands] are doing. We try to be a little bit more on the cutting edge. We cover some classic rock, but we try to stick to a lot of modern tunes, such as music by the Shinedown and Slash & Myles Kennedy. We also play new stuff that's just coming out like 3 Doors Down's new song "One Light." Every bar band is playing "Mustang Sally" and that's not our forte. We want to create an environment where it's like a rock show, and that's kind of the reaction we're getting.
Q Since the band likes to learn new songs quickly, how challenging is it for you guys to accomplish this?
A It can be difficult because we all have full-time jobs. We all do the regular nine-to-five. My schedule's not nine-to-five, but we all have jobs and families. It takes some dedication. You have to set aside time for the music to learn things. I'm really fortunate to be playing with these guys for the simple fact that they're all dedicated. We're really productive. Another thing that's real nice is there are no egos in the band. None of us are rock stars, and we do this for fun. And that's what keeps it so much fun, the fact that we're not trying to survive off of this.
Q What's the name "Face Down" imply?
A We were hanging out at a Buffalo Wild Wings and we were trying to come up with a name [laughs]. We had about three different names, and it was kind of comical because we had talked to the waitress that came to our table. We asked her: "Just judging by the three band names you see here, which one would you come to see?" She actually liked the name "Face Down." And we were kind of partial to it and joked about it for a while. It really doesn't have a meaning. Some people think there is, and it's kind of comical what their take might be on it.
Q Considering you have seven older brothers, was it inevitable that you'd end up playing in a band with at least one of them?
A You know what's great? Me and Mike, since high school, have always played together — on and off. We were both in different bands growing up, but we still played together. There's just a chemistry when me, Mike and Paul get together, because we're very close in age, and we played together growing up. It's almost like it feels natural when you're together playing with them. Mike's like my best friend, so we have a lot in common. The music thing is just a plus.

Chile is once again rallying around the miners who were rescued after being trapped underground for 69 days. However, this time, the 32 men who survived the mining accident are not asking for food or prayers, but rather for support for the country's soccer team as it heads into this year's World Cup.
And "32 men" is not a typo. Thirty-three workers were rescued; however, one of them was from Bolivia and is not featured in a new commercial from Banco de Chile. The bank is an official sponsor of the Chilean team and published its new commercial on YouTube on May 27.
The minute-and-13-second video is narrated and hosted by survivor Mario Sepulveda, who is no stranger to such tasks. Dubbed "Super Mario" during the rescue efforts, Sepulveda found himself in the spotlight for the commentary he would offer on the videos that the miners filmed underground. The clips were transmitted to the rescue team using a telecommunications system.
"In this same place we were trapped for 70 days, the earth had swallowed us," Sepulveda says in the beginning of the clip, returning to the area with his 31 co-workers behind him. "It was then when we had to prove what we were made of."
Intertwined with the clips of Sepulveda talking are the aforementioned videos filmed during the 2010 rescue efforts, along with clips of the Chilean soccer team. Sepulveda recalls feeling the support of millions in the country throughout the miners' ordeal.
"That's why we will take this soil to Brazil to the practice field of our national team," he continues. "To fill it up with hope and courage and show the world that nothing is impossible for a Chilean."
The dramatic score builds as Sepulveda asks, "Spain is tough? Netherlands is tough? We don't fear the 'death group.' We don't care about death because we defeated death before!"
Super Mario (not to be confused with Italian soccer star Mario Balotelli) is referring to Chile's draw for this year's World Cup. The country is placed in the same group as Spain and the Netherlands, along with Australia.
Perhaps taking a cue from Adidas, the campaign emphasizes the idea that "nothing is impossible." Banco de Chile's ad has more than 1.1 million views online.
"My favorite ad of the year," commented one YouTube user who runs a fan page for the German FC Bayern Munich. "Just brought a tear to my eyes."
The World Cup is set to begin on June 12 in Brazil.

Clayton Fire Company held their annual Appreciation Banquet Dec. 15 to celebrate the members of their company for the year that has passed. The evening started out with a dinner and ended with a dance, but it was highlighted for the many awards that were given out.
Once such award was the Stephen Turner Memorial Award, an award started in 1972 by the parents of junior member Stephen Turner who died at the age of 17 after a battle with cancer. This year's award winner is Smyrna High student Joshua Klingler.
Before announcing the winner of the award, Fire Chief Robbie Johnson explained to the crowd that this year's winner had made a significant impact with the company in only a short time.
"He is always striving to do his best to make this a better company," Johnson said.
Klingler took a few minutes after winning his award to talk about the honor and why he became a junior member.
Q Why did you join Clayton Fire Company?
A I joined the firehouse because I wanted to serve my community and my parents. Pretty much all my family members are firefighters so I wanted to continue the tradition.
Q What do you like about being a firefighter?
A I like being a firefighter because I get to help my community out and do whatever I can around the community to help save other people's houses. I like doing pretty much whatever I can to help.
Q What's been your favorite memory so far?
A I would have to say tonight.
Q Were you surprised to win the award?
A Yes.
Q How do you feel about winning?
A It felt good. It feels good to win so I can remember this in my future.

"Trip to the Moon"
One early traveler called it the strangest 75 square miles in North America. Characterized by one of the only continental hot spots in the world, Craters of the Moon encompasses three quarters of a million acres of lava flows, sagebrush, rolling hills... and a few surprises. Part of it is managed by the National Park Service, as a national monument. And it may be as close as any of us will ever come to a trip to the moon. G

- Collar is ribbed to help prevent curling.
- 2-button placket provides a customizable fit.
Callaway Rogue Draw Driver
The vast majority of amateur golfers fight a slice, and no club is more prone to slicing than the driver. Its long shaft and straight face impart the highest degree of sidespin at the fastest rate, creating the largest amount of curve, killing control and stealing distance. That's why Callaway built draw-promoting qualities into the Rogue Draw. Chronic slicers, this driver was made for you.
Rogue Draw features a 5-gram screw in sole near the heel and substantial internal weighting at the heel. This pulls the CG location inward, toward the heel. That enhances the head's ability to create "gear effect," a physical action that minimizes slice-spin when the face is open at impact.
Rogue Draw includes all of the same innovative, distance-enhancing features of the standard Rogue driver, including the combination of Jailbreak and X-Face VFT technologies, improved Boeing Aerodynamics Package and triaxial carbon crown, all designed to work together to promote an increase in ball speed and distance.
Available in 9 degree, 10.5 degree and 13 degree HT lofts. The same range of shafts and shaft weights available for Rogue Standard are available for Rogue Draw: 40g, 50g, 60g, and 70g weights by Aldila and Project X.
Jailbreak Effect for Enhanced Ball Speed
Combined power of Jailbreak Technology and X-Face VFT Technology that promote high ball speed and long distance.
Draw-enhancing External and Internal Weighting
Added weight inthe heel moves the CG inward, enhancing gear effect on open-faced impacts to minimize slice-spin or promote draw-spin.
Boeing Aero Package
We worked with Boeing to improve Speed Step technology by redefining the geometry of the leading edge to improve airflow to promote faster head speed.
Triaxial Carbon Crown and New Head Shape for Increased MOI
Largest ever carbon composite crown surface area in a Callaway driver and new high-MOI shape with larger address footprint combine to increase stability and forgiveness.
Premium Shaft Selection at Multiple Weights
Choose from 40g, 50g, 60g, and 70gweights by Aldila and Project X.
FootJoy WeatherSof Golf Glove (2 Pack)

ROCHESTER � Illinois State Police on Wednesday said the skeletal remains found in Rochester are those of a 30- to 40-year-old white woman.
Authorities had previously released information on the gender and race of the person, but no indication of the woman�s age had been released until Wednesday.
The remains, which have not been identified, were found Saturday in a shed in the back yard of a property at 309 Park St. by a resident who was cleaning. The remains had been in the shed for an extended period of time, Sangamon County Coroner Cinda Edwards said.
The death is �likely consistent with a homicide,� Edwards added.
State police said the Rochester resident who discovered the remains is not a person of interest in the investigation.
Several items were collected as evidence and will be processed by the Illinois State Police forensic laboratory. It could take several weeks to get the results.
Rochester Police Chief Bill Marass said earlier this week that there are no known active missing person cases in Rochester.
