Should the enormous US military budget—which is more than double the combined levels of military spending by China, the United Kingdom, France, Russia and Germany—be cut? This question is finally on the table, thanks to the winding down of combat activities in Iraq and Afghanistan and to Washington's obsession with tamping down the federal deficits that have arisen from the Great Recession. Many who would like to protect the military from the budget knife raise economic arguments to make their case: Won't cutting military spending be bad for jobs, just when we need to maintain focus on reducing unemployment? Won't it threaten the country's long-term technological capabilities?
The matter assumed increased urgency in November after the Congressional supercommittee failed to agree on a deficit-reduction plan. This failure set in motion an agenda for automatic cuts—or "sequestration" of funds—from military and nonmilitary budgets beginning in January 2013. According to the sequestration scenario, absent the adoption of a large-scale deficit-cutting plan, military and nonmilitary spending would face $55 billion per year in automatic cuts over a decade, relative to previously established spending levels. If Congress and the White House devise a way to exempt the Pentagon from the automatic cuts—as seems increasingly likely—the cuts will instead be taken from healthcare, education, social spending, infrastructure and the environment.
Of course, framing the deficit issue in terms of military versus social spending cuts ignores other options, such as raising taxes on the wealthy. It also erroneously assumes that reducing the federal deficit is necessary now, before the economy has settled onto a sustainable recovery path out of the recession. Even more fundamental, today's debate largely skirts the question of what the military budget needs to be after Iraq and Afghanistan, and fails to grapple honestly with the impact that major military spending reductions would have on the economy, especially in terms of job opportunities and technology.
Members of today's military-industrial complex—the constellation of forces, including Democratic and Republican politicians, weapons manufacturers, lobbyists and the Pentagon leadership, whose influence President Eisenhower warned against in 1961—claim that significant reductions in the military budget would decimate US defenses and inflict major damage to the economy. In fact, these claims are demonstrably false.
The Proposed Spending Cuts Are Modest
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has stated that the planned cuts in the military budget would result, over a decade, in "the smallest ground force since 1940, the smallest number of ships since 1915 and the smallest Air Force in its history." Panetta has said repeatedly that the cuts would amount to nearly $1 trillion. That does indeed sound like a lot, given that the annual level of total military spending is about $700 billion.
But what Panetta and others call $1 trillion in cuts is actually an annual $100 billion reduction added up over ten years to produce the huge-sounding $1 trillion figure. In reality, moving from a roughly $700 billion to $600 billion annual budget is hardly extreme, especially when we consider that this includes cuts tied to ending the US combat role in Iraq and Afghanistan. The 2012 budget for these two wars alone is $115 billion, and the planned budget for 2013 is $88 billion, even after combat is over. The Pentagon has also included for 2014 onward a baseline contingency budget of $44 billion annually for any carryover fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan, or new wars elsewhere. Thus, by the Pentagon's own estimate, winding down Iraq and Afghanistan will end up saving $44 billion a year after 2013. In the unlikely event that the budgetary sequestration cuts are carried out, an additional $55 billion per year would be cut. That's how we cut our way from a $700 billion to $600 billion annual military budget.

She knows who you are. And she wants to be with you. Wanting to nurse when she sees you is about wanting to connect. There is no bottle, even if you left 8oz that is not going to make her want to latch after 2hrs away from you. Let go of the idea that this is about food and supply. It's not. You make enough milk. It's normal for your baby to want to reconnect with you anytime she is away from you.
I would pump 1st thing in the morning after you get up to pee. I always got the best yield then. And I would never put more than 4oz in a bottle. It's taking your Mother an hour to feed her because she's not really that hungry. But even if that is true she will still want to nurse when she see you. Because she loves you. And nursing makes her feel safe.

Milder weather helps fire crews in upper Rockies
CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Firefighters took advantage of a lull in searing heat and shifting winds in Wyoming and Montana on Thursday to attack wildfires that have charred thousands of acres and forced dozens of residents to flee their homes.
Temperatures in the mid-80s, higher humidity and calm winds aided crews battling the 95-square-mile Oil Creek fire just northwest of Newcastle, a town of about 3,500 near northeast Wyoming's Black Hills. About 25 families were evacuated from Newcastle's outskirts. The fire was 40 percent contained.
In southeast Wyoming, heavy air power, including four large air tankers, helped increase containment of the 16-square-mile Squirrel Creek fire to 51 percent. The tankers included two military C130s from a fleet that was reduced to seven Monday when one crashed in South Dakota's Black Hills.
"We really knocked it for a change, instead of us getting whacked," said Larry Helmerick, spokesman at the fire. Authorities planned to allow more people to return to dozens of evacuated summer cabins near the Colorado line in Medicine Bow National Forest.
Firefighters also reported progress on a 145-square-mile fire surrounding Laramie Peak, about 100 miles northwest of Cheyenne.
In southeastern Montana, more than 1,300 personnel took advantage of calm winds and temperatures in the 80s to make headway on five blazes that officials are now managing as one 470-square-mile wildfire complex so they can quickly deploy resources among the blazes.
"Slow and steady. We want the lines to hold," fire information officer Dixie Dies said.
High winds and triple-digit temperatures in central and southeastern Montana fanned the blazes earlier this week.
The 382-square-mile Ash Creek fire was about 50 percent contained. Some ranches and homes near Ashland remained threatened, and Highway 212 between Ashland and Broadus was still closed.
At the 67-square-mile Taylor Creek fire near Ft. Howes, managers worked to connect fire lines dug by local residents. The complex also included the Powerline fire, about 30 miles from Hysham. Firefighters contained a late Wednesday run of 400 acres on that blaze.
In Colorado, crews expect to fully contain the state's most destructive wildfire by Friday. Colorado Springs officials lifted evacuation orders for 126 more homes at the 28-square-mile Waldo Canyon fire, which damaged or destroyed nearly 350 homes and killed two people.
Coroner's officials identified the victims as 74-year-old William Everett and his wife, Barbara, 73.
Authorities said Thursday that they know where the fire started but did not disclose the location. The cause was under investigation.
In Utah, rain and cooler temperatures helped crews hold fire lines on the 8,200-acre Shingle fire about 30 miles southeast of Cedar City. The fire threatened 550 cabins and summer homes in Dixie National Forest.
Up to a quarter-inch of rain fell on Utah's largest wildfire, the 160-square-mile Clay Springs fire east of Delta. The blaze was 64 percent contained.
The National Weather Service said moderate temperatures were expected in Colorado and Wyoming through the weekend but warned that hot and dry weather was expected to return to Montana.

Actress Yoo In Na has been cast as the female lead in tvN's new Wednesday-Thursday night drama "Queen In Hyun's Man." According to sources, she will play Choi Hee Jin who falls in love that transcends space and time.
In the series, Choi Hee Jin is a struggling actress who has never had a significant role even after five years since her debut.

Ji Hyun Woo will play Kim Boong Do.
Yoo In Na stated, "I received so much love as Kang Seri in 'The Greatest Love.' I'll be playing another actress role in 'Queen In Hyun's Man,' I'm very excited to play my first lead role."

I liked her cry when she thougt that Boong Do was dead. It was really heartbreaking and soo sad. Really great acting. Most of the actresses are crying and trying to be cute at the same time. It seems as they would cry for a broken cup than for a heartbreaking matter. In Na´s acting was so superb it gave ve goosebumps Her crying made me cry also. Love her for that.

Grace and peace in the name of Christ! I am pleased to report the success of the Bureau County CROP Hunger Walk that was held Oct. 14. I want to take this opportunity to thank the community and all the participants for supporting the CROP Walk. We had a challenging day with cold, rainy weather, but we had a wonderful group of walkers that were dedicated to the cause! We had 145 walkers and raised $15,596.23 to send to Church World Service! Twenty-five percent of the money comes back to our community to support local food pantries. This year, we supported Bureau County Food Pantry, Walnut Food Pantry, Western Bureau County Food Pantry and Wyanet Food Pantry. Each of these organizations will receive around $970 to help people who need food in our community. In a time of economic hardship and uncertainty, it is encouraging that a group of people can work together to help make our world a better place. What a powerful ministry!
Jesus says in Matthew 25:35-36, 40: "For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me ... Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me." Jesus challenges us to care for people in need as though we care for our dearest friend. Last holiday season, Americans spent approximately $471.5 billion. The United Nations projects it would take around $300 billion to end world hunger. Isn't this statistic staggering? We have the resources to feed Christ in our neighbors. How much do you really need this Christmas? Look what a difference 145 people have made! Please consider this as you make purchases in the coming weeks.
It is such a joy to be part of a community that serves God and our neighbors in this way! Next year's CROP Hunger Walk will likely be in October 2013. Please consider participating in it by walking or raising money, and if someone approaches you to donate, please consider generously.
Blessings to you this Thanksgiving, Christmas and into the New Year! To God be the glory!

May 5, 2013
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – What started as an old fashion pitcher's duel finished with some ninth inning fireworks as No. 8 Florida State (38-9) capped off a ninth-inning rally with a walk-off RBI single to straight away centerfield by Stephen McGee as the Seminole defeated No. 30 UCF (26-22) 5-4 Sunday afternoon on Mike Martin Field inside Dick Howser Stadium.
"Sometimes you just have to take what comes your way," said head coach Mike Martin. "That was one of those that we had a very poor top of the ninth inning but our guys showed what they were all about, going out there and having good, quality at-bats; positioning themselves for success. We got it done. There were a lot of positives in the game. It was a just a great win for us."
With the win, the Seminoles completed the series sweep of the Knights while improving their home record to 30-2 on the year. In the process, FSU also extended its win streak when wearing its gold uniforms to 20 in a row.
After giving up two unearned runs in the top of the ninth and trailing 4-2, the Seminoles got the bottom of the inning off to a good start when Jose Brizuela and Jameis Winston drew back-to-back walks off reliever Zac Favre (2-2). Pinch hitter Casey Smit got the Seminoles within one of the UCF lead when he drilled a double off the fence in right to plate Brizuela.
"I needed to hit the ball to the outfield," said Smit. "With runners at first and second, no outs, you're down by two, you have a much greater chance of scoring when you have runners at second and third. I was trying to hit the ball hard somewhere and advance the runners."
After Giovanny Alfonzo was intentionally walked to load the bases, UCF went to the bullpen and called on Eric Skoglund to face Seth Miller. Miller brought home Winston to tie the game at 4-4 when he lifted a sacrifice fly to right in foul territory. Erik Hempe made the catch but his throw was up the third base line and had no chance of catching the speedy Winston. Smit and Alfonzo both tagged on the play advancing to third and second, respectively. With first base open and one-out, DJ Stewart was intentionally walked bringing McGee to the plate. Looking for the force out at home and with the infield drawn in, McGee took a 2-0 pitch from Skoglund and drilled it to no man's land in straight away center to give FSU the come-from-behind victory.
"Our guys knew that there were three outs to get," said Martin. "That's what makes this game so great; our guys were in a fighting mood and they went up there and fought at the plate and got it done."
"It was awesome," said McGee. "Once I saw Casey's hit, I was saying to myself, `just get me up, just give me that chance, I want to do it.' I really wanted it to happen and when it did I was really happy. I just wanted to see a pitch that I could put to the outfield."
The walk-off hit was the first of McGee's career and the second by a Seminole this year. The first came off the bat of Stewart back on opening weekend when the freshman connected on a two-run home run to right center in the 10th inning in a Sunday victory over Rhode Island.
"It really says a lot about him because he does a heck of a job for us behind the plate," said Martin on McGee. "It also says a lot about his competitiveness and desire; every single day he wants to be in there (the line-up)."
McGee finished the game 2-for-4 with a single and a double as he scored once and registered a walk.
The ninth inning dramatics overshadowed a great pitching performance by both starting pitchers on Sunday. Neither would factor into the decision but FSU's Scott Sitz and UCF's Brian Adkins battled back and forth as both did an outstanding job of keeping the opposing offenses in-check.
Sitz held the Knights to just one hit through the first six innings and that hit was an infield single by JoMarcos Woods to lead-off the top of the fourth. The senior right hander retired the first nine batters that he faced and faced just one batter over the minimum through the first six innings.
After opening the seventh with a strikeout, the Knights finally got to Sitz when Chris Taladay unloaded on a solo shot over the screen in right. The Knight third baseman took a 3-2 pitch from Sitz out of the park for his third round tripper of the season. It marked the first home run allowed by Sitz this year. Erik Barber followed two batters later with a double to the gap in left center, but the Seminole right hander got of the jam getting James Vasquez to groundout to second to retire the side.
Sitz finished the afternoon allowing one run on three hits over 7.0 innings as he struck out six and did not walk a batter.
"Beautiful, absolutely beautiful," said Martin on Sitz' performance on Sunday. "I mean Taladay hit a ball out of the ballpark that was down. You just tip your hat to him and go to the next at-bat. Scotty pitched extremely well. I was very pleased with our pitching all weekend."
Adkins on the other hand got off to a shaky start giving up two first inning runs when Marcus Davis got the Seminoles on the board early with a two-run single to right. Stewart drew a one-out walk off the UCF starter and moved to third on a ground rule double down the left field line off the bat of McGee.
The UCF starter then worked around a two-out triple and a walk to Brett Knief and Stewart, respectively, in the second before settling down and not allowing a runner past first base until he left the game with one out in the eighth. Adkins was charged with two runs on six hits as he walked two and struck out one in 7.1 innings of work.
The Knights tied at the game at two in the top of the eighth on an RBI pinch-hit double by Jeramy Matos. Pinch hitter Bret Gordon opened the inning with a single through the left side of the infield off Gage Smith and moved to second on a sac-bunt by Tommy Williams. Matos then took the first pitch from Smith and one-hopped it off the left field wall for a double to bring home Gordon for the tying run.
Robby Coles (4-1) entered in relief of Smith to register the final two outs in the eighth. The junior right hander got Woods to line out to right but not before Winston made a great full extending catch on the run to keep Matos at second. Erik Hempe then flew out to Miller in center to end the inning.
UCF grabbed its first lead of the afternoon in the ninth taking advantage of a two-out throwing error at third that resulted in two unearned runs and a 4-2 advantage. Barber would reach on the two-base throwing error and later score on an RBI single back up the middle by Gordon. With the bases loaded, Vasquez scored the second run of the inning on an infield single by Dale Irving. Gordon would try to score from second on the play, but John Sansone threw on to McGee to record the final out of the inning.
"We are a very tough team," added Smit. "Mistakes happen, they are part of baseball but its how we battle back and just keep our poise; that's how you become a better baseball team, don't let the past affect you."
Florida State sets out for a five-game road trip beginning with a two-game mid-week series at Stetson. Game one of the series begins Tuesday, May 7. Fans can listen to the game on the Seminoles.com All-Access player and locally on 1270 AM. As always, Seminole fans can follow the Noles on twitter @FSU_Baseball and remember to like the Seminoles on Facebook (www.facebook.com/FSUBaseball). Live stats will be available via gametracker.

GLENVIEW, Ill. – Craig Stadler grabbed the outright lead at the Encompass Championship on Saturday, birdieing three of the four par-5s in a 7-under 65 Saturday that put him two shots ahead of Bob Tway and Jeff Sluman.
Stadler, who had a share of the overnight lead, shot 4-under 32 on his inward nine to finish the second round at 12-under 132 at North Shore Country Club. Tway also shot a 65 and Sluman had a 66 that included eight birdies and two bogeys.
David Frost was fourth, three strokes back after a 67 that included six birdies.
Steve Pate, Mark Calcavecchia, Tom Lehman and Bernhard Langer were tied for fifth at 8 under. Calcavecchia and Langer added 69s to their opening 67s, while Pate and Lehman shot 66 in the second round.
Stadler shared the overnight lead with a Langer, Calcavecchia and Duffy Waldorf.
The 65s by Stadler and Tway were a stroke off the course record set by Bo Hoag, then playing for Ohio State, during Northwestern's Windon Classic in 2010.
Tway was 6-under on his last seven holes thanks to a 6-foot eagle putt on the par-5 11th and birdies on four of his last five holes, the last a 30-footer from the fringe that fell into the cup.
Stadler had only one bogey on his card, and scored seven of his eight birdies with putts of 1-20 feet. His other birdie came on a 15-yard bunker shot he holed on the par-3 12th hole.
Pate's 66 included seven birdies in his first 15 holes before a bogey at the par-4 seventh, his 16th hole of the day. Lehman's 66 featured four straight birdies on his opening nine holes.
Tway made only one birdie on his front nine. The key to his inward score of 6-under 30 was a brilliant 3-iron to 6 feet on the par-5 11th hole. He made the putt for eagle, parred the next two holes, then sank birdie putts on four of the last five, including the big 30-footer at the home hole.
Like Stadler, who hasn't won since 2004, Tway has been in a slump. The 54-year-old has yet to win on the Champions Tour.
''My game has not been what I think it should be,'' Tway said. ''My scoring has not been very good; chipping, putting, wedge play, all the stuff. I just continue to work on it. Today was better.''
Stadler said he considered quitting earlier this year until two days of work with teacher Billy Harmon turned his game around.
''You always think you can fix it on your own, but I didn't know what I had to fix,'' Stadler said. ''I've always been competitive. I just haven't been very good at it the last five, six years.''

- How We're Helping
- Tampa Bay Times Fund Inc.
The Tampa Bay Times Fund provides philanthropic support for not-for-profit organizations in west-central Florida.
What We Fund
The Fund provides funding in these general categories: education, arts/culture, social services and journalism. The focus is primarily on helping to improve the quality of life in the Times' audience area: Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco and Hernando counties.
Because of its commitment to journalism practiced with precision and integrity, the Fund also gives generously to universities that teach journalism and to industry groups that provide training and support for professional journalists.
In addition, the Matching Grants to Education program allows current staff of the Times Publishing Co. and its affiliates to support the colleges, universities and other schools above the high school level from which they have graduated. The maximum match per year is $5,000 per staffer.
The Fund also provides a dollar-for-dollar match of staffers' and retirees' contributions to the annual Employee Giving Campaign, which supports local United Ways, Arts and Education organizations.
For current Times employees, the Fund also offers a program of matching grants to nonprofits. Employee contributions are matched dollar for dollar up to $1,000 per year.
What We Don't Fund
Like most organizations or foundations, the Fund has limited resources and cannot fund all the requests it receives. As a rule, grants are not made to:
- Individuals.
- Groups that do not have the 501(c) 3 status (non-profit) as determined by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
- Organized religions, individual churches or groups with religious affiliations.
- Politicians, political-action committees or legislative-advocacy groups or projects.
- Loan programs or annual fund drives.
- Golf tournaments, raffles, local fund drives, fraternal groups, athletic teams, bands, school newspapers or yearbooks, veterans organizations, volunteer firefighters and other such groups. (Their numbers surpass the Fund's ability to provide consistent, meaningful assistance.)
- Organizations that advocate discrimination of any kind.
The Fund also does not provide financial help to organizations, projects or programs that pose a conflict — or have the potential to pose a conflict — with the independence of the news gathering of any publications, electronic or in print, produced by Times Publishing Co.
How To Apply
Grant Application: The Process Starts With a Concept Letter
Nonprofits should send a concept letter (no more than 2 pages) describing the program. If the request lies within the Fund's scope, the agency will be invited to complete a more detailed application. Elaborate presentations are not required, although a site visit is standard for agencies new to the Fund.
If the concept letter is approved, the agency will be invited to complete the full grant application. The application form will be provided by the Fund's director. Applicants may submit ONLY ONE request per calendar year (Jan. 1 to Dec. 31).
The Grants Committee meets quarterly (March, June, September). The size of a grant generally does not exceed $25,000. The maximum funding period is three years. (The typical grant ranges in size from $1,000 to $10,000.)
Applicants will be notified about the Grant Committee's decisions within 30 days of review. In most cases, checks are processed immediately.

'Burg native wins national award
Cheryl HEATH Courier Press staff
One of Wallaceburg's homegrown students is now recognized as one of the top teachers in the land.
Kim LEWIS, who hails from Wallaceburg and is now a drama teacher at John McGregor secondary school in Chatham, has been awarded with a Certificate of Excellence as a recipient of the 2002-2003 Prime Minister's Award for Teaching Excellence.
The award, presented by Prime Minister Jean CHRETIEN at a May 15 ceremony, recognizes the efforts of outstanding teachers who provide students with the tools necessary to become upstanding citizens, develop and thrive as individuals, and to contribute to the country's growth and prosperity.
LEWIS was one of only 16 teachers and 10 early childhood educators to be honoured at the national level while 72 teachers and 31 early childhood educators will be presented with certificates by their respective Members of Parliament.
It was a climactic moment in her teaching career, says LEWIS, who is the daughter of "Radio" Ray and Janice AARSSEN of Wallaceburg.
LEWIS, who has been a teacher for 24 years, began her teaching career at Our Lady of Help school in Wallaceburg. She then worked out West and later in Fergus, Ontario, before moving back to the area with her three children 12 years ago.
There weren't any teaching positions available in Chatham-Kent when LEWIS first arrived, but she was interviewed by a Lambton Kent District School Board administrator to whom she promised that he "won't be sorry" if he gave her a chance.
He obliged. LEWIS then began teaching English, but in time, had the chance to teach her true love -- drama.
The program at John McGregor school proved so popular with students over time that the number of classes offered has grown to nine from three, which is quite a feat given that drama is not a required course in the curriculum.
"I can't tell you how fulfilling it is," says LEWIS. "It really is amazing that I get paid to do this."
She says being nominated for the award by both the parent council and school principal Ross DAWE at John McGregor school was an honour in itself.
"I tried to dissuade him (DAWE,)" she says. "He wouldn't hear of it. He insisted on putting this nomination together."
LEWIS notes "there are so many great teachers in our building" that she was awed when she received the call from Ottawa informing her of the win.
"It blew my mind," says LEWIS, adding she and her entire family, including husband Dan, who is an accomplished physical education and math teacher as well as guidance officer at McGregor, enjoyed the five-day trip to the nation's capital.
"It really was invigorating to hear other people who are passionate about what they're doing, too," says LEWIS of the experience of meeting with Canada's top teachers.
Indeed, LEWIS says the event was inspiring as well as a real shot in the arm for her teaching career.
"I kept walking around saying, 'I've just been inoculated, '" she quips.
LEWIS says her childhood inspired her interest in the dramatic arts. She recalls that her parents were heavily involved in the theatre and they often held cast parties at the family home. In her later years, LEWIS took part in theatrical studies at Wallaceburg District Secondary School and she also joined the Wallaceburg Little Theatre. These days, in addition to her teaching duties, LEWIS directs, organizes and writes several community-based drama programs, including the incredibly successful Stop Bullying production presented in cooperation with the Chatham-Kent Police Service earlier this year.
LEWIS notes her high praise for her students and their commitment to drama.
"The opportunities with drama are endless and the rewards are immeasurable," she says. "My students change the world and that's what it's all about."
LEWIS adds her motto as a teacher is a simple one. She offers her students with a safe environment to test their abilities.
"The biggest word of my career is risk," she says. "I provide a safe environment, which allows for risks. Then I say to students, 'let's find out what you're capable of.' Success is absolutely a given if you come in here with the right attitude."
Thanks to LEWIS's achievement, her school will also receive a $5,000 donation to be used with LEWIS's direction in consultation with the school.

So my baby is 12wks old. We have had a rough go of it. I started out breastfeeding but was getting stressed so at 4.5 wks I took a break I only breastfed him when I was up to itwhich was 3-4 times a day and I did not pump for the missed feedings. Then he had formula the rest of his feedings Those 3-4 times I would bf him were mostly in the evenings. He started to rely more on the bottle and by 7 wks he was on almost all formula. At this point he was nursing a few times in the evening but only through the letdown because it was faster and once the letdown was done he wanted the bottle. Well I decided at that point that I could see he was about to be done with Bf all together and I wasnt ready for that so I decided to get my supply back up and get him bf more. I want to only breastfeed him again and do no formula. I know it was not smart to introduce the formula but I did and I cant change that. So at 7 wks we started this process of building my supply back up. This are going great and he is nursing alot now. He nurses before every feeding in the evenings and then gets his bottle afterwards. I am pumping at work and bringing home 8 oz now from my 8hr day at work. So here is where things are complicated.
My baby gets formula during the day at daycare which is what we were doing at home since he was 4.5wks old. Well even then he was having a hard time adjusting to bottles and we finally settled on the Playtex Nursers. He uses them fine at home but the sitter told me yesterday that she needs to get him on more of an eating schedule because he is only eating like 3 oz the whole 8hrs that he is there. And that it is too hard for her to have to feed him every hr and him only eat .5-1oz each time when she has 4 other kids to take care of. She said she has been trying to get him to eat more in a feeding and has tried feed on demand and tried letting him get super hungry to where he is crying so that she knows he is really hungry but she said it didnt make a difference he only wanted like an ounce. I told her I thought maybe he was reverse cycling but she said she has never heard of that. I also told her that he is more of a snacker during the day and he eats like a pig at night. She said she has never had a mom tell her that her baby was a "snacker" and that this cant be good for him and that he is only going to learn to use me as a paci. I told her I didnt know what to do to make him eat more at one time. She said she wants him eating 2-3 oz a feeding. I guess so he will go longer between feedings and free up some of her time for the other kids. She also said that she thinks I have confused him by going back and forth between breast and bottle like I did. I told her I have never taken one day off of bf I just slowed down and he had mostly bottles during that time but was still nursing. She said he acts like he doesnt know what to do with the bottle and doesnt latch well. I told her we werent having really any trouble getting him to take a bottle at home. Sometimes he has trouble but most times he is fine. She also said maybe he doesnt like the formula now since he is having more bm now, but he still takes formula fine at home. I am so confused and upset. Did I mess my baby up? Did I confuse him by going back to bf more now? I am worried that he is not eating enough in a day. I think he is getting about 20-24 oz in a full day. I feel so bad if I have confused him. Should I stop bf and just bottle feed and pump? Is he reverse cycling since he eats the majority of his feeds at night? Is reverse cycling going to hurt him like she thinks it will? I am just so worried and dont know who to go to about these things. Please help! I was so proud of us for going back to bf and he has been nursing so good lately and he is on more bm than formula now and I was trying to get him on all bm and then wanted to be able to only breastfeed in the nights and weekends and do no bottles except at daycare but if he is confused then I dont know if that is a good idea. This jsut makes me want to give up. I have worked so hard and thought I was doing the right and best thing for my baby but it doesnt look like it now.

A bevy of beauties turned out Tuesday night to toast Tory Burch and her new flagship store on Rodeo Drive.
Jessica Alba, Emilia Clarke, Jaime King, Hailee Steinfeld, Kiernan Shipka, Isla Fisher, Emmy Rossum, Brooklyn Decker and many more came dressed in their best Tory, including resort-ready print dresses, lace sheaths and metallic sandals.
"T is T," said Jones, the "Parks and Recreation" actress, "meaning Tory is timeless." "New Girl" actress Hannah Simone agreed. "I grew up in Cyprus, and her clothes are so effortless, they remind me of home -- a very stylish home."
Simone said she's been busy taping promos for the episode of "New Girl" that will air directly after the Super Bowl. Pop god Prince is making a guest appearance on the show, which has been "so incredible," she said.
I reminded Simone that Prince played a role in Burch's success, too, by wearing a studded women's Tory tunic onstage at the Coachella Art and Music Festival in 2008 and thus cementing the designer's image in the pop culture pantheon.
Burch, who launched her brand in 2004, has always had a strong connection to the music world, as a fan (in her teenage years it was the Grateful Dead, and later hip-hop) and supporter. She dated Lyor Cohen, former head of Warner Music Group, who started his career as Run-D.M.C.'s road manager in the '80s, and took pal Kanye West as her date to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala one year.
So naturally, she brought in a great DJ for her Rodeo Drive bash -- Q-Tip, a founding member of hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest, who has been in the news this week for inking a deal with Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill to develop a scripted TV series about his experiences.
"We're here to celebrate the incomparable Ms. Burch," Q-Tip could be heard saying over the sound system, his voice reverberating through the three-story boutique, and onto the roof. There, guests gathered by the outdoor fireplace, sipped Moet & Chandon from tiny bottles, and watched a dreamy short film by L.A. style maven Lisa Eisner projected onto the side of the building next door.
The film features the Rodeo Drive Collection, a capsule created to celebrate the opening.
"What an incredible night," Burch said. "Seeing so many people I've known for so long, friends and my incredible team. I couldn't be happier."
Next up for Burch? Her first Paris flagship, slated for spring 2015.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Last week, Marcia Perrine's students at Little Cypress Intermediate School participated in creating a mural with the help of education staff from the Stark Museum of Art, LCM CISD Community Relations Coordinator Sherry Combs said in a statement.
When Engage Life Director Cheri Courts came to work for Atria Collier Park three years ago and saw the wall honoring veterans, she immediately wanted to paint a mural for these men and women that put their lives on the line to make sure we could keep our freedom.
Atria Collier Park is an assisted living community in Beaumont.
"To me this was how we as a community could honor and say 'thank you' to all of our veterans," said Courts, who has an extensive background in art.
Pecos artist Sally Chandler guided eighth graders from the Odom Academy of Beaumont as they painted a 13-foot-long, 6-foot high mural on the wall of the Art Museum of Southeast Texas (AMSET) Tuesday, April 16.
"They're doing such a good job," Chandler said. "Yesterday, we spent most of the day talking about 'The Lost World' (Chandler's exhibit). There are 18 (children) and they each have their own space and each have their own stories."
On Jan. 17, Altus Cancer Center unveiled a new 66-canvas mural displayed on the wall of the radiation treatment room at the facility in honor of the center's first birthday.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Organization Overseeing Six Strikes Agreement Between Labels And ISPs Includes Advisory Board To Try To Keep Tech Folks Happy
from the better-than-nothing dept
However, lots of folks are pointing to the fact that CCI has also set up an advisory board with some familiar names of folks who have fought for consumer rights repeatedly. As Greg Sandoval reports at News.com:
CCI's advisory board will include a large number of privacy and technology advocates, including Jerry Berman, chairman of the Internet Education Foundation and founder of the Center for Democracy and Technology; Marsali Hancock, president of iKeepSafe.org; Jules Polenetsky, director of the Future of Privacy Forum; and Gigi Sohn, president and CEO of Public Knowledge.This is, at the very least, a nod to the fact that the entertainment industry can't just completely control how this system works. Of course, it's an open question how much power this advisory board will actually have, and how much of this is really window dressing. In fact, the actual power to run CCI is in the hands of a separate "board of directors" which is entirely made up of entertainment industry and ISP representatives.
The "good news" is that many of the folks on the advisory board are certainly not at all shy about making their voices heard if they feel they're being ignored, and Public Knowledge's Gigi Sohn is not one to go away quietly on these issues. As she told Sandoval:
"It was not an easy decision for me to join this Advisory Board," Sohn said in a statement. "I did so because I saw the need to be an advocate for the rights of Internet users and to provide transparency."This whole thing will be worth watching closely, and I'm glad that at least a few good people are on the advisory board, but we'll see what happens when the actual "strikes" start issuing.
Sohn said that one of the first things she wants to see once CCI is up and running is to abolish any kind of service suspension.
"I will ask at the appropriate time," Sohn said, "for the ISPs to promise not to interpret the agreement's 'temporary restriction' provision as allowing for suspension of user Internet accounts."

Value Line is regarded as the best independent research available. More than just recommendations, Value Line provides the rationale behind its picks for greater understanding.
Issues defined as "growth stocks" have a number of common traits, but the most important is that their earnings are expected to grow at a faster pace than the broader market over a period of time. With that in mind, Value Line runs a screen in its Summary & Index that searches for stocks that meet this key criterion. It focuses on issues that have recorded good per-share earnings gains in recent years and that ought to continue to do so in the future.To make our list, a company's annual growth of sales, cash flow, earnings, dividends and book value must together have averaged 10% or more over the past 10 years and be expected to average at least 10% in the coming 3-5 years, which is no easy feat considering that this time span included varying rates of economic growth. Below we highlight two of the stocks from our screen with sound investment merit: Gildan Activewear (GIL) and Lindsay Corp. (LNN).
Lindsay Corp.
Lindsay Corporation produces center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems under the Zimmatic and Greenfield brands, mini-center pivots, and horse reel travelers. The company acquired Watertronics in January of 2008, and Barrier Systems in June of 2006. Irrigation accounted for 86% of fiscal 2012 (years end August 31st) revenues, while infrastructure products (steel tubing and assemblies, movable traffic and safety barriers, along with crash cushions) made up 14% of the top line last fiscal year. Overseas revenues were 36% of the fiscal 2012 total.
Lindsay Corp. recently reported strong results, particularly on the bottom line. Share earnings came in at $1.50 during the February quarter, which was a marked improvement over the year-earlier tally of $1.00 a share. As commodity prices remain high and with farmer sentiment positive, the top line has climbed sharply. Cognizant of the drought conditions that pervaded the last growing season in the Corn Belt, famers have looked to install efficient irrigation systems to ensure steady crop production. Lindsay was also awarded a $39 million Middle East contract of which no revenue has yet to be recorded. The lion's share of this revenue will be recognized over the remainder of 2013, which augurs well for sales growth moving forward. During the May period, earnings per share came in at $2.01 versus $1.47 the prior year, as the company continued its positive momentum.
Still, our positive outlook isn't without a few caveats. Despite solid execution and results in recent periods, CEO Mark Parod issued a warning that the latter part of calendar year 2013 and 2014 might well see a decrease in demand if agricultural commodity prices fall, as projected by the USDA. What's more, some of the increase in sales may be seen as a pull-forward in irrigation equipment orders, as farmers anticipate dry weather conditions and potential water restrictions. However, management did recently mention that, as of now, demand remains high. In aggregate, we look for double-digit annual growth rates for Lindsay's sales, cash flow, earnings, dividends, and book value, on average, over the 3- to 5-year pull.
Gildan Activewear
Gildan Activewear is a vertically integrated manufacturer of basic, frequently replaced, nonfashion apparel. Activewear/underwear (t-shirts, sports shirts, underwear, fleece sweat shirts/pants) account for 80% of the top line, while socks comprise 20%. The company has yarn-spinning, textile making, sewing, and distribution operations. Gildan primarily sells "blanks" (plain tees and sweatshirts) to distributors serving silk-screen printers. Printed tees and sweatshirts are marketed at sporting events and stadium concerts.
We look for Gildan Activewear's earnings to double in fiscal 2013, which ends October 4th. The year-to-year shortfalls in the first three quarters of last fiscal year were primarily caused due to unusually volatile cotton prices. Past purchases of relatively high-priced cotton were included in cost of goods sold and distributors deferred orders in anticipation of a price decline (which did not come to fruition). In fact, cotton prices have been quite stable over the past several months and orders for Gildan's printwear products have recovered. These variables, along with contributions from the acquisition of a supplier of high-quality T-shirts and sports shirts, and progress in the retail markets, coupled with production efficiencies, are the key factors behind our estimate of record share net in 2013.
The company is in the early stages of a major push into the retail market. Traditionally, sales to the wholesale distributors of "blank" fleece activewear and T-shirts have accounted for most of the company's top line. However, Gildan-branded shipments of socks and underwear to premier customers such as Wal-Mart (WMT – Free Wal-Mart Stock Report) and Kohl's (KSS), are expected to ramp up over the near term. Two years ago, higher-profit branded items represented 35% of the company's retail business, and by late 2013, we look for that figure to reach about 65%.
The bottom line should advance at a solid rate, as should other operating fundamentals, over the 3- to 5-year pull. The likely catalysts include new offerings, such as sports team and work place uniforms in the wholesale market, a ramp-up of Gildan's retail business, and expansion in overseas markets.
At the time of this writing, the author did not have any positions in any of the companies mentioned.

This week in Island history Compiled by Sue Maden
Week of December 15
The news of 10 and 15 years ago is from the Jamestown Press. The news of 25, 50, 75, and 100 years ago from the Newport Daily News comes from the collection of the Newport Historical Society.
100 years ago From the Newport Daily News, December 15, 1905:
Local fishermen are preparing for the winter's trawl fishing. Mr. I.C. Mosher has had the Archie and Hermie hauled out and put in condition for the rough usage, and Messrs. Gomache and Lathan are getting a new set of trawls in readiness.
From the Newport Daily News, December 16, 1905:
The committee to purchase horses for the town visited Newport yesterday, and today Mr. J.F. Sullivan of that place sent a pair here on trial.
From the Newport Daily News, December 18, 1905:
A case of scarlet fever was brought to the attention of the authorities Saturday, and a special meeting of the town council was held in the evening at which it was voted that the patient and family be quarantined until said quarantine be ordered removed by the council.
From the Newport Daily News, December 19, 1905:
Mr. Eugene Peckham is using his new sloop, the White Cap, to ferry brick from the Torpedo Station to Newport.
Several of the young men at the north end of the island are anxious for cold weather to set in. They have built and rigged two iceboats and now want the north reservoir to freeze hard enough for them to try their new craft.
75 years ago From the Newport Daily News, December 12, 1930:
Messrs. Harry Pitchers, Andrew Dawson, Walter Marley, Jr., and Miss Eleanor Pitchers, flew from the landing field at Beavertail Wednesday afternoon on a trip around the bay.
From the Newport Daily News, December 13, 1930:
Clues are being traced to the vandals who during the past week destroyed the miniature golf course on Narragansett avenue, and arrests are likely to follow shortly.
Preparations are being perfected for the community Christmas tree, which is being sponsored by the ParentTeachers Association. As heretofore, the tree will be on the village green, near the new fire station. Mrs. Arthur Didsbury is chairman of the exercises and is planning an excellent program of Christmas carols which will be sung by a large chorus.
50 years ago From the Newport Daily News, December 13, 1955:
(At the Town Council meeting) Dr. Gobeille reported on his conference with Rear Adm. Ralph C. Earle, commander of the Newport Naval base, about opening the Beavertail area the year round. Thirty members of the civic organizations, who are interested in having the area opened to the public who were present, assured the Council of their cooperation to maintain order and prevent vandalism. The area has been closed by the Navy since World War II, except for a few summer months the past two years when it was opened with the town and the Navy each furnishing a guard to police the area.
From the Newport Daily News, December 14, 1955:
A program of adult education will be offered next September, the Jamestown School Committee announced at its meeting last night. . . . (Superintendent, Anthony J.) Miller announced the rate of tuition to Rogers High School effective for the last quarter of the 1955-56 school year has been increased from $258 to $286 per year. Jamestown sends 56 pupils to Rogers.
From the Newport Daily News, December 17, 1955:
Purchase of the ferryboats and other property of the Jamestown-Newport Ferry Authority, which now leases them, would be authorized in legislation recommended by the ferry company at a meeting in Jamestown last night. . . . When the state took over the ferry system five years ago, it was agreed that the operating profits would be used to reduce the ferry company debt.
25 years ago From the Newport Daily News, December 12, 1980:
The School Committee is faced with a proposed 15.7 percent tuition increase for 196 island students at North Kingstown High School. At Rogers High School, five students are currently in vocational classes and 10 are expected next year. A tuition boost of 15 percent is forecast there. . . . The current tuition cost at NKHS for 196 students is $281,000. If the 15.7 (percent) increase goes through, this figure will jump to $328,000, projecting an additional 10 students.
From the Newport Daily News, December 16, 1980:
The width of the proposed Jamestown Bridge has increased to 88.86 feet and residents may expect a four-lane road across the island to connect with Newport Bridge, it was learned last night.
15 years ago From the Jamestown Press, December 13, 1990:
Members of the Penguin Club, over 300 hearty souls, will once again plunge into the icy waters of Mackerel Cove to raise money for the Rhode Island Special Olympics. The Town Council Monday night granted the club use of the town-owned beach for its annual New Year's day event that draws hundreds of spectators.
The Jamestown Design Committee last Thursday urged the state Department of Transportation to keep lighting on the new cross-island highway to a minimum needed for adequate safety.
Jamestowner Chris Powell is the first recipient of the Volunteer of the Year award.
10 years ago From the Jamestown Press, December 14, 1995:
Although the new Zoning Ordinance was just adopted, it may still get some fine tuning in the form of additional amendments. The Town Council Monday voted to have the Planning Commission make recommendations on five still contested items in the ordinance. (These included B & Bs and open space.)
An island-based company had a hand in creating newlyreleased computer software that will help manage the cleanup of major oil spills. Jamestown Marine Services came up with the concept of OSARMS (Oil Spill Automatic Response Management Systems) following the World Prodigy oil spill in 1989.

'The Wizard of Oz,' a 1939 make.
The movie version of Gone With the Wind turns 75 this year. So does The Wizard of Oz.
And Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. Stagecoach. Of Mice and Men.
Seventy-five years ago, Laurence Olivier starred in Wuthering Heights, Robert Donat in Goodbye Mr. Chips (who won the best-actor Oscar), Greta Garbo in Ninotchka.
The Roaring Twenties starred James Cagney and Humphrey Bogart — and contained one of the great death scenes in film. The Women, based on the play by Clare Boothe Luce, boasted a cast with screen legends Joan Crawford, Norma Shearer, Rosalind Russell, Joan Fontaine, and Paulette Goddard; it has been remade twice.
Think of the images that have been burned into our brains from that year. Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh, James Stewart standing defiant in the Senate, John Wayne in one of his most iconic poses. Dorothy, the Tin Woodsman, Cowardly Lion, and Scarecrow. Toto, too.
That's a lot to celebrate, and some film buffs have proclaimed 1939 the greatest year in film.
Here's some more evidence: According to various surveys by the American Film Institute, 1939 contains two of the 10 best American movies of all time ("Gone With the Wind" and "The Wizard of Oz"), the only year with more than one top-10 movie.
It had AFI's winner for the best quote ("Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn"), best song ("Over the Rainbow") and best fantasy film ("Oz" again). "Mr. Smith" is a top-five inspirational film for the AFI, and "Stagecoach" a top-10 Western.
The 10 nominees for best picture of 1939 have "GWTW" (the winner), "Mr. Chips," "Mr. Smith," "Ninotchka," "Of Mice and Men," "Stagecoach," "Oz," "Wuthering Heights" — AND "Dark Victory" with Bette Davis and "Love Affair," which inspired "An Affair to Remember" (twice) and, by extension, "Sleepless in Seattle."
'Gone With the Wind,' another seminal classic from 1939.
But 1939 is not free of flaws. It was the studio era, when a lot of forgettable films were pushed assembly-line-style into theaters. Even though Hattie McDaniel won a best supporting actress Oscar for "GWTW," and the notorious Stepin Fetchit's career was on the wane, Hollywood — like society generally — was less than enlightened racially. And other movie years have made their own cases for being the best ever.
After all, "Citizen Kane" tops many lists as the best film of all time, and it's from 1941. That year also had "How Green Was My Valley" (the best-picture Oscar winner), "The Maltese Falcon," "Sergeant York," "Suspicion" and Barbara Stanwyck in "Ball of Fire."
University of Akron associate professor Eric Wasserman, who teaches film studies in the English department, has argued vigorously for 1974 as American cinema's greatest year, pointing to "The Godfather: Part II," "Chinatown," "The Conversation," "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore," comedic landmarks "Blazing Saddles" and "Young Frankenstein," Dustin Hoffman's performance in "Lenny," and, most importantly, John Cassavetes' "A Woman Under the Influence," which he considers a cinematic game-changer on a par with Citizen Kane.
"Woman," Wasserman said, "showed independent-minded filmmakers that they literally didn't need anything to do with the studios to make pictures their way.
"Cassavetes completely bankrolled the picture himself and, by necessity, actually distributed the film entirely on his own with no studio support. And it still garnered two Academy Award and three Golden Globe nominations."
Overall, Wasserman looks at 1974 and says, "The ability of the pictures of 1974 to continue to influence and more importantly inform American film and movie culture makes it more significant than 1939 or 1941. I've heard it said that baby boomers are wrongfully attached to 1970s cinema and hold it up out of their generational narcissism. I do not agree. There are a lot of things to criticize baby boomers for ... but their contributions to American cinema are certainly not among them."
So let's say we are marking either the 75th anniversary of the movies' greatest year, or the 40th. In either case, we are looking at films that have endured. Each year has a mix of drama and comedy, of color and black and white. Each year has titles in the National Film Registry — including "Gone With the Wind," "The Wizard of Oz," "Stagecoach," "The Women," "Young Mr. Lincoln" and more from 1939, and "A Woman Under the Influence," "Blazing Saddles," "Young Frankenstein," "The Conversation," "The Godfather: Part II" and others from 1974.
But maybe we should be jumping ahead in time and mark a 30th anniversary, or a 15th. An Entertainment Weekly critic in 2009 argued for 1984 as the best year "when it comes to films you actually want to watch on a rainy day playing hooky from work" — from Oscar greats to pure cheese. He heard from so many irked readers that a follow-up piece presented fans' arguments made for 1977, 1994 and 1999.
Another film buff used 32 great years to create an NCAA-like tournament, based on 12 films from each year; 1939 made it to the final four, where it lost to 1967, which then lost in the finals to 1999. (1974 didn't make it out of the first round, losing to 1969.)
So, of course, a movie watcher's view of greatness is subjective. Is "Citizen Kane" suddenly less great because the esteemed Sight and Sound critics' poll ended its 50-year hold on the top spot in favor of "Vertigo"?
The movies we admire are often rooted in what we saw when becoming film fans. As a result, some have discovered movies' glory through a generation of filmmakers who seemed fresh to their newest admirers, because they did not know that the new generation had been inspired by a previous one.
When I was seeing a lot of the great movies of the '70s, I was also someone who had seen dozens of older, black-and-white movies, usually on television during the pre-cable heyday of stations' late-late shows. Such discoveries — "The Roaring Twenties" was a big one — are still in my head more than 40 years later.
In that context, 1939 was indeed a pretty great year, and it has movies that serious film students should study for decades to come. But the list for 1974 is quite incredible, too. The best thing may be to forget about anniversaries and get back to watching great movies, regardless of their years.
Or we could argue about why anyone would pick 1999 ...

On Oct. 31, 2011, the world was blindsided by the news that reality TV star Kim Kardashian was divorcing her husband, National Basketball Association star Kris Humphries. The couple had married on Aug. 20, 2011 in a storybook wedding worth $10 million. A mere 72 days later, however, Kardashian had filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.
Fortunately, the couple had a prenuptial agreement in place, so each party is likely to walk away from the union with their finances intact. This puts Humphries in a better situation than many of his fellow divorced sports personalities, many of whom never had such a contract in place prior to exchanging vows. Maybe they believed they truly would live happily ever after with their spouses, or perhaps they never knew they needed one in the first place. Either way, they failed to protect themselves, and it cost them dearly.
Some players were involved in unions that only lasted a year, while others ended marriages that had stood for decades. However long they were married, the price of breaking the contract was huge -- sometimes even reached nine figures.
So, who are some of the athletes whose divorces cost them millions? Click ahead and find out.

Dick Pinney's Guidelines: March's arrival brings ideal ice fishing conditionsDICK PINNEY March 08. 2014 12:59AM
March is the month when this old fool puts on way too many heavy clothes and pulls on boots that could float him if he falls through the now, getting softer-ice. March not only is way more comfortable to be out on the ice but also often produces some of the fastest ice fishing of the year.
When we were younger, probably because we were always trying to build our image as a macho, macho outdoor man, we liked to target the glamour fish. They were bragging material - those big trout and salmon - and they were not to be sneezed at when grilled and served with a bit of lemon. And did we mention that they were "bragging material?"Our macho thing has passed several years ago. Now our goal is survival first and catching something nice to eat secondary. If we catch any trout or salmon in our travels, you have to know that it was strictly by mistake. Give me a plate of Jane's fried crappie or yellow perch fillets and it's kind of like being in gourmet heaven.
Funny things happen when Jane sets out a plate of those delicious fillets. Know that a fish has two fillets. Also note that a dozen panfish provide 24 fillets. And I do take note of this fact when sitting down to demolish my plate of them.
But something happens between passing her the fillets to cook and the time she serves them. It's got to be some kind of disappearing magic.
The plate of supposedly 24 fillets will be minus at least six or seven of them. But Jane's a very poor thief. That tell-tale smile of hers immediately indicts her of the crime of fish fillet thievery! It's just so funny and it's a big thrill for me to know how much she enjoys the fruits of my labor.
Crappie fishing and fishing for yellow perch requires two different approaches, although you may catch both species from the same hole in the ice. Crappie usually don't move around much, but will hang out in certain places, usually a deep trench in a shallow part of the lake. They like to suspend a bit off the bottom but as the day gets longer they will often drop down closer to the bottom. They like to feed on small baitfish, but will take a bit of hooked-up worm or meal grub.
We usually will jig with a couple of jig rods set just a foot or so away from each other and will rarely even set out tip-ups for them as they are very light biters and are hard to hook on a tip-up.
But that's not the only way to fish for them. Some friends of mine will punch a bunch of holes well within a few steps away from where the will set on a bucket.
Using the old-style tip-ups in a non-traditional way, they will drop their baits down to the pre-determined level and tie an easily untied loop knot onto their line. Then they set the tip-up on the ice without putting the spool into the water and using the steel band that holds the flag, slip the loop of line over the end of the band, right at the flag. When a crappie hits the bait, the flag will move up and down, signaling the fish's take.
That's when they get off their seat, move to the tip-up and just haul in the crappie.
A little wind hitting the flag will set the bait to slowly moving, a great fish motivation.
When the crappie are hitting really well, there's not much time spent sitting on the bucket and the catch of fish will make your jig-caught bucket look pretty small!
Yellow perch are nomads. They are in schools that are on the move, most probably (but we're not sure) chasing baitfish around. They can be caught on all kinds of bait but small shiners seem to be the most popular with the second choice of those that fish with jig rods, a fresh perch eye. It's kind of gross the first time you pick an eye out of a perch to use. It becomes much more suitable if you do that with a frozen specimen that you've caught earlier.
A friend of mine lives in New York, where yellow perch fillets are like gold, selling for lobster meat-like prices.
Commercial hook and line fishing is allowed and a lot of people supplement their income doing this each winter, especially charter boat guides on the Great Lakes. His approach is to use tip-ups and jig combinations. He will never set a tip-up in one place without drilling a second hole right next to the tip-up.When a flag goes off on the tip-up, instead of pulling that fish in he'll drop a baited jig line into the hole next to it and pull as many yellow perch from it as fast as they can, until the school moves away. These schools of fish normally don't stay in one place very long.
Catches are often counted by the hundreds, so it's not to be called easy work! And these people don't look on it as a sport, but for those of us that are not that aggressive, their method of cutting two holes for each tip-up is a great idea.
And in New Hampshire we do have limits on our panfish.
In finishing, we like to add a unique twist to how to use some of your yellow perch fillets.
Drop them, a few at a time, into a pot of boiling water. When they curl up, quickly remove them with a slotted spoon and set them on a tray of ice. Serve them as an appetizer, along with some spicy tomato and horseradish sauce before your main meal of conventionally cooked fish.
You'll be amazed at how much they taste like shrimp or lobster!

Main Site - :: Why Won't God Heal Amputees? ::
She was very insulting too and made lots of false accusations.
Anyway, once in a while we see this conflict between the two forums and don't fully understand why it actually happens - we know what has happened and the reasons for it, yet see little point in it - at the very least I don't see much point to it (I can't speak on behalf of everybody else).
Unfortunately, we get some bad rep from theists we've ended up banning (and probably atheists we've banned too)...but then you kinda expect that. Somebody who's banned isn't going to go around telling people how great the forum is.
I was a moderator when you were banned (Moderator B01) and I remember the thread in the admin section and the decision wasn't sudden.
IMO the best forums I've visited work by that mechanic, because it allows a moderator to deal with disruptive situation that's not technically against the rules if you were to use any legal interpretation. It doesn't suit everybody or every forum's goals and that's fine, you can't please everyone.
So welcome back to the forums. I hope it works out for you and hope to see all of us getting along.
