We sat down with 13 of the 15 seniors from the Bison football team that leave the NDSU program with an outstanding 58-3 record and an unprecedented four FCS championship.
#20 – Colten Heagle
- Position: Safety
- Hometown: Appleton, Wis.
- High School: Kimberly High School
- Two-time first team all-Missouri Valley Football Conference in 2013 and 2014.
- 2014 Buck Buchanan award finalist along with teammate Kyle Emanuel.
- Second team Sports Network all-American in 2014 and third-team in 2013.
- First in unassisted single season tackles (59) and career unassisted tackles (191).
The Interview:
Has it set in?
"I keep getting that question but I think I have been able to think about it mostly these past couple of weeks with the game. I think it has set in with what I've been able to accomplish with NDSU and win four national championships and beating five FBS teams. Being around a great group of coaches and players and community that has been involved. I don't think I could've asked for a better experience."
Working off the field has got to help with some of the realization that football is over, right?
"Yeah, knowing I have something else besides football makes me feel good. I couldn't be more content with the opportunity to move on without football anymore. I think I'll be able to do other things besides football and that means a lot to me. I'm just a regular person. I will be able to move on and become a part of the community."
What's the best part about getting on that stage in Frisco?
"In most sports, your last game will be a loss. To go out as a winner is huge. With this year losing coaching staff and a lot of seniors from last year that were good friends of mine and being able to come back with this group of guys and being able to go out on top and making history is a remarkable – especially with the amount of people that said we couldn't do it again – now that its over."
What are the differences you see in the Bison program from when you went into the 2010 season and before you went into this season?
"Being recruited in 2010 I didn't know a whole lot about NDSU and I was only two states away. I now know we put NDSU on the map I think not just football wise but with other sports. You know last year we won nine conference championships, a game in the NCAA basketball tournament, baseball was able to break through and win a conference championship and get to the tournament, along with softball which has dominated over the past couple years along with track that's been dominating the Summit for the past, probably decade. It's been fun to be a part of this university and the culture here. Like I mentioned before, just putting it on the map in not just sports or in football, but academically I think its become a great institution with President Bresciani. I think this school is not going anywhere but up right now."
Have you noticed anything internally changing over the past few years?
"I don't think so. It started with a tough attitude in the weight room the first year I came here with Coach Kramer. I was just able to read that article about Coach Kramer and Coach Miller and Coach Miller made the comment that you know coming in that you couldn't have done anything else. You did it all to better yourself. And I think I have, I can say that – and most players can say that – because they have given it their all here. That's the Bison way. You're going to do everything you can to be successful. At NDSU it's about being blue collar and how you work hard. You're not going to be given anything here. You work hard and you work for what you get. I think that's the epitome of NDSU and that's never going to change."
How do you hope fans remember you?
"I hope they remember me by knowing that I gave everything I could to this program and in this community and I will be continuing to do that because of how much this place has done for me. Basically, on the field, being a tough player and being able to continue the Code Green legacy on defense."
#3 – Trevor Gebhart
- Position: Wide Receiver
- Hometown: Sioux Falls, S.D.
- High School: Washington High School
- Four-time Missouri Valley Football Conference Honor Roll and will be working for Pepsi in South Dakota.
- 82 career receptions with 865 yards and four touchdowns.
The Interview:
Being an NDSU football player comes with a lot of pressure. How do you cope with the expectations every year?
"You don't really know what you're doing while it's going on. We know the records, we're aware of it but it's not something we talk about, having more national championships than losses. Scouts honor and everything, we didn't talk about that once, it never crossed my mind. I had no idea until we had beaten Sam Houston State. Someone told Colten (Heagle) and he told me the next day. I was like 'wow!' and we were like it's okay to talk about now because it's out there and it's there for the taking and we will accomplish that if we win the game that's in front of us. All you do is go to the next game. Here's your game, you play, you win and here's your next one."
So the winning streak was never a thought?
"It just happens. You're not going to have a winning streak if you're sitting here okay let's string some wins together. It's game-by-game, week-by-week and it just adds up."
What's next for you?
"I graduated in December, start my job in February and I'll be working in Sioux Falls. I'll be selling for Pepsi. I did an internship with them this summer and then it worked out well. I had a blast doing it. It was easy and natural for me. They offered in September and I accepted. It's a relief. I got an income right away (laughs)."
Is there anything you have learned over your five years here that you can take with you for the rest of your life?
"I've learned, well a few things, number one, if you won't – and as cliché as it is and people always say it – if you want to do something and accomplish something no matter if its sports or anything, it's possible. To get there it takes a tremendous amount of focus and energy and effort. But going back to what I was saying about the games, it kind of just happens because you're so focused on doing something small right, and it just adds up. And eventually great things happen and people start noticing, that's when the big things happen because you have done so many of the small things right. You're not going to accomplish something great *snaps* just like that. It doesn't happen that way."
Is that kind of what people think when they mention Bison Pride?
"Yes. And it's alive and well."
#85 – Kevin Vaadeland
- Position: Tight End
- Hometown: Park Rapids, Minn.
- High School: Park Rapids Area High School
- Returned for a sixth year after taking a medical hardship in 2010.
- 2013 All-Missouri Valley Football Conference second team after catching eight-touchdown passes.
The Interview:
What were you telling yourself before the final drive against Illinois State?
"Just gotta stay calm. We did it against South Dakota State and with Carson back there that make plays."
What ultimately set you over the top when making your decision to play a sixth year?
"I knew we had a good team coming back; a lot of good seniors and a lot of playing time between us all. Coach Klieman he knows what he's doing. The two other coaches that came back, Tim Polasek and Tyler Roehl had already been here so we jelled right away and I knew we had something special."
Was it championship or bust this season?
"Our expectations that were put on us were a little lighter. When we had the streak going, it was kind of a relief to lose one so you're not thinking about it every game. You try not to talk about it but it's always there."
After that UNI loss, what does it say about this program's ability to bounce back?
"We just took it one game at a time, one play at a time and one workout at a time. We just did the little things."
#52 – Travis Beck
- Position: Linebacker
- Hometown: Munich, N.D.
- High School: Munich High School
- 2012 NCAA FCS Championship game MVP after intercepting a pass in the fourth quarter.
- Started 50 games and is 10th on the all-time total tackles (308).
The Interview:
What's it mean to bring another championship back to your home state?
"It means a lot being from the state because there are so many people from around the state that played and you're close to all your friends and family and they all come to your games so it's good to make them proud. All them around that live in other parts of the country come up. It's good having everyone have you back home."
How was this experience in Frisco different than years past?
"It was different but I mean I was really proud how the team came back, just how they played and this last playoff run I was really proud how they all, defense in particular played throughout the course of the playoffs and in the championship game. It's different in the championship game not playing, but I think I was more nervous for this game than any other game in my career. It was good to see how it ended up."
What kind of support did you get after you go hurt?
"I got a lot of support from players and past players were texting me. And I think that's how it's going to be here with anyone going down."
What are you going to remember about this group of guys?
"There's a lot of stuff. I'd probably say just a close-knit this group was. That's really a big part of it. I haven't been on a team like this. I don't think there are many teams like this. Everybody gets along with everybody. You can go hang out with anyone on the team and it would just fly by. It's not like that with a lot of groups. That's what sticks out in my mind is just how close everyone is on this team."
What's next for you? "Finish up school and rehab this thing.
#9 – Esley Thorton
- Position: Linebacker
- Hometown: Bismarck, N.D.
- High School: Bismarck High School
- Made the transition from quarterback to linebacker in 2012 and made 20 career starts on defense.
- Four-time member of the Missouri Valley Football Conference honor roll.
- Named to 2014 MVFC All-Academic first-team.
The Interview:
What have you learned here that you can take with you in every walk of life?
"I think just the hard work, every fall camp, winter workout just the grind of the season. I don't think I'll ever do anything again that physically, mentally demanding than that. I just have a newfound confidence going into the real world with my graduate studies. If I can handle this and succeed, I have no doubt I will find ways to succeed in other walks of life."
Have you been able to sit back and reflect at all?
"A little bit. I remember talking to Christian when we were on the stage when we won and just being like 'This is unbelievable.' It's unreal. Looking at each other up there and remembering hanging out in the stands as red shirts before we'd done anything, before we were on the map and then to see it come full circle and seeing each other on stage after everything we've accomplished, just being on that stage."
Must have been a special moment.
"It really was."
What kind of legacy are you hoping your class leaves with?
"How we were kind of the class that put NDSU football on the map first for division I. There's already a lot of tradition here in Division II, but we're the ones that put our print on the Division I era at NDSU football. Hopefully what we did solidified the fan base and what we did made the fan base grow and the fact we got more national attention with recruiting, hopefully brining in a higher level of athletes and leaving the program better than what we found it. Hopefully it continues to grow."
What is Bison Pride?
"I think it's selflessness. For me, it took me staying here and not transferring or quitting to really feel that bond with my teammates and the program. I'm just so glad I didn't leave. I didn't end up playing the position I came here to play, but I've gotten rewarded so much for staying and sticking it out. I'd say Bison Pride has a lot to do with selflessness."
Is it funny that your career ended with the game-winning interception?
"It's ironic.
Did you think about that at all after the play?
"No it didn't because I'm a linebacker now. It's been my life for the past three years. But if somebody were to tell me when I was a quarterback it would've seemed so far from realistic. It's crazy."
#35 – Christian Dudzik
- Position: Safety
- Hometown: Omaha, Neb.
- High School: Skutt Catholic High School
- Made 61-career starts at cornerback and safety.
- Fourth in NDSU's career unassisted tackles (154) all-time list.
- Named to the 2014 all-Missouri Valley Football Conference first team.
- Recorded 13 interceptions and recovered five fumbles in his career.
Was this the most physically straining year for you?
"This year I was probably banged up more than I was any other year. I never really had any major injuries prior to the season and then I had the quad injury right away Iowa State and then a shoulder injury at UNI. They weren't bad enough to keep me out of a game."
Didn't you ever just want to give it a rest for a couple days?
"I sat out probably one practice after each of those injuries but I was there. I just knew if I could be out there than I was going to be out there."
Is that toughness just something all you Bison have?
"I would say so. Especially the guys that have been here awhile, they know how important it is for guys to be out there with their teammates and meshing on certain things, especially defense and older guys. Kyle basically had a broken hand all year."
What was it about this team's attitude after the UNI loss that propelled you guys to national champions?
"I think we felt like it wasn't a part of our identity, the way we performed that game. We just knew we didn't get back to the basics. And that's what we did back at practice the next week."
Obviously four titles is what you'll be remembered for but how else has your senior class left its stamp on the program?
"We just had great chemistry. From the start really I don't know what it was I mean we lost a few guys throughout the years but for the most part we all stayed together. I think its one of those things that kept us together was during workouts there was just never any quit in the guys. Even like I said with Kyle Emanuel and he has NFL aspirations and he's still playing through it. We just meshed because we had the same mentality and we wanted to win."
What is it about the "Bison Pride" attitude that you can carry with you for the rest of your life?
"Finishing. The work ethic is the biggest thing I learned here. I mean, every rep is about finishing and doing things the right way and not taking short cuts. I think that's just the pride of this team. We felt like we worked hard enough to deserve a win every week. We talked about it before, the most satisfying thing at the end of every game is knowing you did your best during the week of preparation and during the game and seeing the outcome being in your favor."
Compare this one to your first?
"The first one was just 'Wow. So this is what winning a National Championship feels like?' This last one was like (laughs). I don't know. It was just a challenge we set for ourselves and a lot of people felt like we couldn't make it and to. I was thinking about it. That game was one bad call away from us losing. I think if we would've lost, I still would've been satisfied because I knew that guys especially our leaders the seniors, and myself put so much work into and did the absolute best that we could to put ourselves in the position to go out on top. Whether we would've lost or won. a victory is a lot sweeter just the satisfaction level of knowing you did your best didn't matter in the outcome of the game."
Esley Thorton told me you guys were on the stage together taking it all in. What did you say to one another?
"I was standing next to him the whole time and we just (laughs). It was just like 'What a relief.' It was a blur because five minutes earlier we weren't sure if we were going to be walking off the field just sad because it's over and we didn't win. And then five minutes later we're on the stage and confetti is falling on us and the fans on the field were chanting with us. After Carson (Wentz) scored and then Esley (Thorton) makes that interception, at times, I was just laughing hysterically. The nerves were just up and down. It was just something else. It was a unique experience."
- Position: Linebacker
- Hometown: Minneapolis, Minn.
- High School: North High School
- Played in 59 games at both outside and inside linebacker during his career.
- Named to the 2014 all-Missouri Valley Football Conference first team.
- Third in NDSU's career unassisted tackles (155) all-time list and fourth on all-time total tackles list (345).
- Scored two career touchdowns on a fumble and interception return.
The Interview:
What will you stick with you most about this last game in Frisco?
"The comeback. Last year, we were blowing the team out and it wasn't very emotional. At the end, we already knew we were going to win, but this game just went down to the wire. This one was way more emotional because it was your last game and your thinking am I going to lose this last game. All that went through my head after they scored that last touchdown. I was sitting on the bench thinking about everything. I was sitting on the bench, couldn't even watch the last drive at all. I was just sitting there with my head down and couldn't watch. Then we got a shot to go out there again and we were like 'They're definitely not scoring.'"
What did you and Joe Mays talk about on Friday before the game?
"He pretty much congratulated us and told us how he loved watching this team and how we compared to the other ones. 'You guys were way better than when I played.' He was like 'You guys are just way faster than us.' And we told him every time we watch his team they were always knocking somebody out though.' He said, 'Yeah, we knocked them out but we couldn't run that fast.'"
You handled everyone's best shot for four years. What does that say about the program and this class?
"It just shows we're resilient. We didn't let that stop us. We didn't let all the people coming for us, all the seniors leaving; we didn't let that get in the way of the goal of winning another championship. We were out there to prove everyone wrong. That's kind of our motto this year. We had a chip on our shoulder because people were saying we lost so many seniors and we weren't going to be as good as we were last year."
#17 – Adam Keller
- Position: Kicker
- Hometown: Lewisberry, Pa.
- High School: Red Land High School
- Holds NDSU records in made field goals in a game (5), season-season records in points scored (145), extra points (75), field goals made (29) and attempted (34), and career records in extra points (191), field goals made (56) and field goal percentage (80).
The Interview:
You set numerous records during your time here, is that your goal going into your career?
"You always try to set your dreams big as far as setting records or whatever it may be. I never would've imagined the success I did have always try to be the best I can be."
How do you think this team left its mark on the program?
"I think just the stamp is that we've continued the legacy that's been built from back in the 60s and we just continued to do the same. We had the opportunity to do the same and the ball rolled our way a couple times."
What is Bison Pride?
"Bison Pride to me is the tears that I have when I look into the eyes of the other guys in the room on Senior Day. And just we know how much each and everyone of us have poured into this program and the respect that each one of us have for one another as well."
What's next for you?
"For me, I'm doing a little bit of training and see what I can do to perform at the next level. I'm going to do a pro day and try to go to a couple kicking camps and get some exposure through that and see what else. My back up plan if I don't play football is, I'm going to be working for a private equity firm down in Dallas."
- Position: Defensive End
- Hometown: Sioux Falls, S.D.
- High School: O'Gorman High School
- Four-time member of the Missouri Valley Football Conference honor roll.
- Appeared in 46 games throughout his career.
- Credited with nine career sacks and three fumble recoveries.
- Caught a two-point conversion during the 2013 FCS championship game.
The Interview:
Has it set in?
"Kind of. I don't think I'll realize what we accomplished until we come back in five or ten years when the team is all back together again. I think it will take some years to fully realize what's been accomplished. It's more set in that I'm done playing than the fact that we just won four straight."
When did the thought of a four-peat creep into your mind?
"The whole process started right away last year. We knew it had never been done. Last year, with the three-peat we were one of four or five teams that has ever done that. The idea was there, but it wasn't something we talked about a lot. This year we played for this year, not the last three years. It's one of those things that crosses your mind but you try to ignore it until after the fact. Now I can sit and think about it. It's pretty cool."
Injured early, how do you keep a positive attitude throughout the season?
"The family around me, just the guys. I think I proved myself and they knew I'd do anything to get out there if I could. It's one of those feelings where if anyone else is hurt, you don't want to say much because you know how badly they want to be out there. I think they supported me and they were all smart with me. I remember right away, it was looking like I'd need surgery and everyone understood. They said don't rush it hopefully we can get you back don't do anything that's going to ruin your leg for the rest of your life. They were all so understanding because we're all so close. We're like a family. I leaned on them and they kept me going."
So then how did the team console Travis Beck after his season ending injury?
"Beck is one of those dudes though. He doesn't want to be consoled. He does but he doesn't. But we did. That sucked because he doesn't like giving all the interviews and that type of stuff. Honestly, I don't know of a dude who cares more. You wouldn't know it because he doesn't show too much emotion but he cares, he really cares for all five years. It makes you grateful I guess. I somewhat knew his pain because I was really close to being in the same position. I'm glad he stuck around and stayed with us."
He said the games are unbearable to watch when you're hurt like that.
"That's how I was when I was out. It's the frickin' worst because you can't control anything because you're sitting there. Oh my gosh that's the worst. I was like, 'If I ever thought about coaching college football those thoughts were gone after that.' I understand why are coaches are so involved but it's so stressful."
#7 – Zach Colvin
- Position: Cornerback
- Hometown: Superior, Wis.
- High School: Superior High School
- Two career interceptions and returned both for touchdowns (12 and 44 yards).
- Made 51 career tackles, nearly all on special teams.
- Played an important role on kick coverage during his final three years.
The Interview:
What was it like moving here from Fargo?
"It was a lot different. I came up here by myself, I guess we all did. I literally didn't know anybody because I had to sit out a year. So I came up here and didn't know a soul until that winter when I actually got to workout and lift with the guys and that was the norm. I just knew I was in the right spot right away. It just felt like home away from home."
Four championship in four eligible years for you. Has it settled in yet?
"Honestly I don't think it's going to settle in for awhile because it's not suppose to happen and it doesn't happen, but we did it. We made history. I'm not going to realize it until I'm a little further down the road. It's gonna sink in eventually and when it does it's going to be heartfelt for sure."
Where does that drive come from to make plays on special team?
"Actually, it comes from my teammates. When I came in, you could say I was a baby, I complained a lot and they just picked at me, picked at me, picked at me and one day I gotta grow up. One day in practice I was like okay well I just broke my leg, I'm coming off an injury I have to do something and in practice I'd go 100 mph and I was just talking to everybody and taunting them and stuff. After awhile the coaches started getting the hint and Ariel Boyd got hurt so I got my chance and the first time I went in I made the tackle and from there it just kept going and going. That's what I pride myself on is special teams. I hope somebody can take my spot next year and do the same thing I was doing."
What's Bison Pride mean to you?
"Bison Pride to me is indescribable. The unity and brotherhood we have here and the close-knit group we have is just amazing. To put Bison Pride in one word is incredible, the love we're with each other everyday and we never get sick of each other. Bison Pride is something you feel and go through you can't really explain it. The culture. The vibe. You feed off it. You just got to feel it."
#65 – Adam Schueller
- Position: Offensive Line
- Hometown: Fergus Falls, Minn.
- High School: Fergus Falls High School
- Appeared in all but two games as a member of the punt shield on special team.
- Saw limited action as a backup offensive line and played a crucial role in establishing the "Ram" mentality.
- Was named to the 2010 Missouri Valley Conference honor roll.
The Interview:
Has the fact that you're a four-time champion settled in at all?
"The excitement has. Actually realizing what we did and how it all happened, I think that will probably take 20 years maybe. I told my girlfriend, we went down there knowing – you go to a National Championship to win it you don't go just to go to a National Championship – so winning it was supposed to happen but how we won it and that last five minutes game was unbelievable. So that part hasn't sunk in at all just how crazy those events were. Jesse walked in and said 'Schu' this is done.' I cleaned out my locker this morning. It's pretty crazy. That was the last time I'll ever play football again."
Alumni love coming back to watch you guys play, what's that sense of Bison Pride mean?
"I think a lot of people have the same definition, but one thing we always talk about is that NDSU is a lot different. Now, I've never played at another school but from other stories from friends that have played at other places, we always say be a part of the Bison Family. That's real. You're in a locker room with a 100 other guys there are some guys that don't like each other but if that guy needed help even though the other guy doesn't like him, he's still going to help him, you know what I mean. Just going to work everyday and not only doing it for yourself but doing it for everybody else. I knew as a young guy getting up at 5 in the morning to go run. It's a lot easier when you have 60, 70, 80 guys coming to do the same ting you are. Bison Pride is doing anything for one of your teammates, even the alumni, like you said, those guys come down to Frisco and they love it just as much as we do."
#76 – Jesse Hinz
- Position: Offensive Line
- Hometown: Beatrice, Neb.
- High School: Beatrice High School
- Appeared in 42 games over his career, including 23 starts.
- Four-time member of the Missouri Valley Football Conference honor roll.
- 2014 first team all-Missouri Valley Football Conference
The Interview:
Congrats on the engagement and championship. Let's talk about the engagement first. How did this unfold? Was it a spur of the moment thing?
"It was planned for awhile. It wasn't a spur of the moment kind of thing."
What would've you done it if you guys would've lost?
"Still would've. I probably would've done it on the balcony on top of the field."
Did she see it coming? Did you guys go ring shopping before?
"She had no idea. She thought we were going ring shopping on Monday after the game, but it was pretty cool."
Has it settled in for that your football career is done and you guys went out as champs?
"Yes and no. I guess, when you think about it, it's like yes we won four championships which has never been done, but as far as really understanding what it is like nobody has ever done that, like ever. It's been an incredible ride. Just to be with these guys and be able to work as hard as we have and be able to accomplish what we have."
What are you going to remember most about your team?
"(Laughs) Working out in the winter, I'll always remember that. Because we're always in there just tired, puking, miserable and we just hated it. But then you'd look to the guy to the right and the left and you remember this isn't about you, it's about something bigger."
What kind of legacy do you think this class of seniors will leave?
"I think it leaves an example. It's what we came here to do. It's what Bison Pride is all about. I don't think you can fully explain what it is. It's just one of those things you can't really say this is Bison Pride, if I had to summarize it, it's just having love for each other. Everything, how we work how we play how we lift. We do it because we love each other."
- Position: Offensive Line
- Hometown: Fargo, N.D.
- High School: South High School
- Transferred from Valley City State after his sophomore season.
- Appeared on the offensive line six times this season.
- Got engaged to his girlfriend after the FCS Championship game and the video of the proposal was viewed over one million times on social media.
The Interview:
When did you know you wanted to drop on a knee and ask her to marry you?
"We looked at rings before the season started, before fall camp even started so back in August. I told her if you want to look at rings we better do it now because once football starts I'm going to be busy. Once football and school is going I'm not doing all that. We looked at rings way back then and I told her I'd never propose until I was done with school and football. So yeah. I honestly didn't make the decision to do it until the night of the game. I told my mom to bring the ring down with her because she had the ring during the whole game. I said I wasn't 100 percent sure I'm going to do it and I didn't decide until the night before the game."
What did your mom say?
"She knew when I bought it. I bought it two months before that. My whole family knew, everyone knew we were going to get engaged, all the guys on the team knew we were going to get engaged and that I had a ring. But no one knew when I was going to do it. Besides my family and I guess a lot of my teammates knew I was going to do it before I did it."
How long after the game was it?
"We went on stage and did all that celebrating and the I saw my girlfriend then now fiancé on my brother-in-law's shoulders right up by the satge and I pointed to them I'm going down tis way. SO we walked to that end of the endzone probably 10 15 family members around, some on my side and some on hers and I dropped down and did it right there."
Did you tell someone to have the camera phone ready?
"Oh yeah. My mom was in charge of video, my sister was in charge of pictures. My sister thought it was an awesome opportunity to do it.
"Just storming the field after winning a championship in of itself is an amazing moment and then asking the love of your life to marry you and to spend the rest of your life with you is just a huge moment, in-front of everybody who matters to me which is my family and my teammates and the fans. It was an awesome opportunity."
Bring the championship back to you state?
"Its so awesome. It was my dream. That's the whole reason I came back, it's everything to me. I grew up here being a huge Bison fan, which was always my dream and I finally achieved it. It's been an awesome opportunity to be a part of it."

Here, we have to figure out the subjects for two verbs. Cross out the prepositional phrases and relative clause: You know how you have to conjugate the verb to match the subject in foreign languages? We have the same thing in English, and it can get tricky even though the simple cases seem so natural and obvious to us: Note that the underlined portion is a comma phrase. To find the subject if the verb is located in a phrase or clause like the one above, just ask yourself what it's describing. In this case, the phrase is obviously describing my aunt, which is singular. Therefore, we need the singular verb is. The verb "are" agrees with a plural subject, but the subject of this sentence is the singular "pair." Changing "are" to "is" corrects the sentence's error (subject verb agreement sat quiz). Equipment leases are grouped into the following two categories: Equipment dealers and distributors often own subsidiary companies that offer equipment leasing services. Visit the equipment dealers and inquire if they offer financing arrangements for their equipment. When youre in charge of making an equipment rental agreement template, there are two main types of agreements you can come up with: THE LESSEE DECLARES THAT HE OR ITS EMPLOYEES UNDERSTAND THE OPERATION OF THE EQUIPMENT. The LESEE shall not remove, alter, disfigure or cover up any numbering, lettering or insignia displayed upon the equipment, and shall ensure that the equipment is not subjected to careless or needlessly rough usage, and shall at the LESEEs own expense, maintain and ultimately return to LESSOR the equipment and its appurtenances in good repair and operating condition. The agreement stated that it would enter into force (and thus become fully effective) only if 55 countries that produce at least 55% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions (according to a list produced in 2015)[65] ratify, accept, approve or accede to the agreement.[66][67] On 1 April 2016, the United States and China, which together represent almost 40% of global emissions, issued a joint statement confirming that both countries would sign the Paris Climate Agreement.[68][69] 175 Parties (174 states and the European Union) signed the agreement on the first date it was open for signature.[59][70] On the same day, more than 20 countries issued a statement of their intent to join as soon as possible with a view to joining in 2016. Signing the accords would also be a requirement for any nation wishing to partner with the U.S. in its Artemis program to return astronauts to the surface of the moon. But not all nations have reacted favorably to the agreements, or the lunar plan. All three of the Space Act Agreement initiatives, COTS, CSTC and CCDev are for development, engineering and testing of design concepts, but CSTC is different from the other two initiatives in no providing any funding. CSTC agreements are only instruments committing NASA to increase cooperation and to support the private sector companies with information and other facilities, but this commitment is without financial implications and both sides (NASA and the private companies) should ensure by themselves the required funds for their respective parts of the activities.[11] Four of the cooperation agreements signed are for a period of maximum 3 years[5][6][7][10][12] which have lapsed in 2010 (nasa agreements). FTA certificates or declarations should only be issued if your good qualifies for the FTA. Not all FTA agreements require specific forms. There is a specific NAFTA certificate (CBP 434) for qualifying shipments to Canada and Mexico. Many other FTA partners can accept declarative statements that contain specific data elements including information stating how the product qualifies for an FTA. However, importers may still ask exporters to use a specific format. While the form/format is optional, the information is required for the importer to make a claim of preferential customs treatment free trade agreement paperwork.
Our people don't want to be registered with Danish unions because the Danish collective agreement — which has been such a success on world-leading Danish airlines like Cimber Air, Sterling, Maersk, all of whom bestride the aviation globe as international colossi — would require us to cut their pay, our pay is higher than the Danish collective agreement, but we would have to then pay for things like their underwear — they have an underwear allowance because that's what's in the Danish collective agreement — and, frankly, our pilots and cabin crew would rather buy their own knickers as long as we pay them more money. A.17 Credit assessments in relation to exposures in the form of CIUs are to be applied purely for fixed income CIUs within the standardised approach. The mapping of ECAIs ratings to risk weights is shown in Table 5. 18.104.22.168 The rights, obligations and liabilities of all relevant parties to the agreement; A.14 For risk weighting purposes, short-term assessments are deemed to be issue-specific. They can only be used to derive risk weights for claims arising from the rated facility. They cannot be generalised to other short-term claims, except under the conditions that follow in relation to short-term inter-bank claims under Option 2 of the standardised approach to credit risk, which the Tri-Party Group has applied: F.3 The framework is applicable to the banking book exposures in the standardised approach (fsc standardised outsourcing agreement). A supplemental agreement (SA) is a formal agreement between the contracting parties amending the contract. A supplemental agreement can be used in number of different circumstances. As the name suggests, a supplemental agreement is generally used to supplement some other agreement already in existence. Thus, it is normally a secondary agreement used to augment a primary agreement. In some situations, it may make sense for parties to use an amendment to make a change to a contract or an addendum to add to a contract. Conviction in another state. Defendant's conviction by a Texas court constituted a "prior felony conviction" for purposes of the New Mexico habitual-offender statute, even though defendant had been placed on probation after his conviction, the indictment was set aside by a Texas court after completion of probation, and the conviction could not be considered under the Texas habitual-offender statute. State v agreement. If you've never rented before, tenancy agreements can initially seem quite confusing. But never fear we've put together the most important things you need to check. A useful rental agreement is also specific. You should thoroughly think through what rules you want to include: Are pets allowed? Will there be a late rent fee? What is the specific security deposit amount and how does the tenant receive it back in full? Do you want a noise restriction rule? Make sure your rental agreement is customized for you Note: remember, HOA regulations are not a suggestion. If applicable, make sure your HOAs regulations are specified in your rental agreement. Examples include: quiet hours, snow removal expectations, and guest parking rules. You need to enforce the rules in your rental agreement, otherwise your agreement loses its importance (here).
So far we have considered subjects that can cause subject-verb agreement confusion: compound subjects, group noun subjects, plural form singular meaning subjects, and indefinite subjects. If the + an adjective appears as the subject of a sentence, it will be plural. 2. When two or more singular nouns or pronouns are connected by or or nor, use a singular verb. Abbreviations and acronyms usually take a singular verb. If youre unsure, check if the full version of the acronym or abbreviation is a singular, plural or collective noun, and refer to the rules above link. Contractor will handle the CDI with the understanding that (a) only Authorized Persons will have access to the CDI and (b) such persons shall not divulge, publish, or otherwise disclose, orally or in writing, CDI or use the CDI except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

A sidetrack agreement is a contract in which a railroad allows a business to use a sidetrack, a short section of railroad that connects to the main track. In exchange, the business promises to indemnify the railroad for any claims that arise from the business' negligent use of the sidetrack. In the United States, property and casualty insurers typically use similar or even identical language in their standard insurance policies, which are drafted by advisory organizations such as the Insurance Services Office and the American Association of Insurance Services.[31] This reduces the regulatory burden for insurers as policy forms must be approved by states; it also allows consumers to more readily compare policies, albeit at the expense of consumer choice.[31] In addition, as policy forms are reviewed by courts, the interpretations become more predictable as courts elaborate upon the interpretation of the same clauses in the same policy forms, rather than different policies from different insurers.[32] Indemnification agreements are common additions to real estate contracts, such as one between a lessor and lessee.
Smokings toll, after all, was the reason states fought Big Tobacco for the money in the first place. But when the final legal settlement was signed in 1998, it did not require states to spend at least some money on smoking prevention. In February of that year, soon after he took office, Richard Cordray, Ohios newly elected treasurer, began trumpeting the idea of securitizing the states tobacco money, according to news reports from the time. Reporter Cezary Podkul talks with Marketplaces Kai Ryssdal about Wall Street and the predicament of states that borrowed against the 1998 tobacco settlement. This proposed congressional remedy (1997 National Settlement Proposal (NSP), a.k.a (agreement). The fixed interest rate applies to the entire term of the funding and equals the CIRR rate applicable on the date on which the loan agreement is signed plus a margin.

In a forward funding deal, buyers bear an even higher risk because they are paying purchase price instalments before the building project is completed. Forward funding agreements are therefore considerably more complex than forward purchase agreements. A creditor can agree to subordinate its existing debt to that of another creditor by means of a subordination agreement or an intercreditor agreement. If the existing debt is secured by a land charge/mortgage and such land charge/mortgage will be subordinated to a newly created land charge/mortgage, registration in the land registry of such subordination is required in order for it to become effective (forward sale and purchase agreement). Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or the breach termination or invalidity thereof, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules as at present in force and as may be amended by the rest of this clause. The appointing authority shall be Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre. The place of arbitration shall be in Hong Kong at Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC). There shall be only one arbitrator.(1) Any such arbitration shall be administered by HKIAC in accordance with HKIAC Procedures for Arbitration in force at the date of this contract including such additions to the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules as are therein contained.(2) If the transaction has a Mainland China aspect, the parties may wish to keep open the prospect of applying to the Mainland Chinese courts for interim relief in support of the arbitration http://geniuscourse.net/memberlogin/?p=6481. A purchase order contains the date the purchase was made, the name of the company purchasing the goods, raw materials, or services, description and quantity of the goods or services ordered, price, payment information, billing address, shipping address, expected delivery date, and a purchase order number, also known as a PO number. For instance, a rental company will need to regularly create work orders for maintenance professionals to service tenants' issues. The company may also need to create a work order for repairs or renovations after a tenant packs out of an apartment. For example, a machine may have an emergency break down even though routine checks are done on the machine monthly. By checking the work order, one can easily track the kind of maintenance that has been done so far and probably discover that the oil has not been changed in 6 months more.
As stated in an articulation agreement established between Kean and Essex County College on January 15, 2015, the University will allow Essex County College students who have successfully completed an above-listed associates degree and appropriate general education requirements to transfer credits upon their admission to Kean*. Up to 35 credits may be transferred to Kean and students may be eligible for reverse transfer to complete outstanding associates degree requirements. Credits transferred will depend upon the equivalency of courses pursuant to the links provided below (http://againstalloddsanimaltherapy.com/union-county-college-transfer-agreements/). Depending on whether your parents have already engaged a lawyer to prepare a loan agreement, we can act for you to prepare the agreement. Oral agreements (or homemade written agreements with vague or uncertain terms) are unlikely to be enforceable, and in Australia the loan is presumed to be a gift if there is no loan agreement in place. In the interest section, you will include information for any interest. If you are not charging interest, then you will not need to include this section. However, if you are, you will need to detail the date when the interest on the loan will begin to accrue and whether the interest will be simple or compound in nature. The Ontario Court of Appeal allowed the appeal and ordered Kouri to pay Ecclesiastical the amounts received from its clients as premiums for the renewal of coverage. The Court relied on section 402 of the Insurance Act, which provides that an agent or broker who receives money as a premium for an insurance contract is deemed to hold such premium in trust for the insurer.[ii] In the Court's view, Kouri's unilateral act of sending out certificates of insurance created valid contracts. The issue was not whether Kouri could bind the insurer; on the face of the sub-broker agreement, Kouri had no such authority. However, an insured who received a certificate had no knowledge of the terms of the sub-broker agreement and no reason to question its validity. As a result, in the Court's view Kouri's "ostensible authority was sufficient to create binding contracts of insurance on behalf of Ecclesiastical." To protect themselves from such a situation, insurers should ensure that policies clearly set out the limit of a broker's authority to issue renewals (more). Upholding the exclusivity of arbitration, the Honble Supreme Court in Indus Mobile Distribution Private Ltd vs Datawind Innovations Private Limited and Ors has held that the moment the seat is designated, it is akin to an exclusive jurisdiction clause. The act, 1996 is a long step leap in the direction of an alternative dispute resolution system.

The pre-packaged lobola contract officially hit Shoprite last Monday and costs R99. "As for detractors, as Africans, we're notorious for not documenting our history, customs and traditions. The agreement template assists in ensuring that this critical part of being African is recorded properly. This is the opposite of retarding African customs," says Mahlangu. "This is of great importance to our culture that we can't afford to have any information bungled up," he says. "What is agreed upon during lobola negotiations has legal repercussions, so it is important that all information be recorded accurately." Entrepreneur Jabulani Mahlangu is the creator of a new, legally binding lobola agreement document now sold at select outlets of Shoprite and USave stores more. When you sign a contract, best practices suggest you use a color other than the color of the agreement terms to reinforce authenticity and prevent anyone from creating fraudulent copies of the contract. Blue is the norm. Do not use a pencil because someone could tamper with it, and avoid red ink because it can be hard to read. Hi Breanna, some contracts require notarization and some do not.

I completed the IRONMAN and my hip was great!
Just after completing the 2019 IRONMAN 70.3 Steelhead, or commonly referred to as a half IRONMAN, I began my training for the full 140.6 IRONMAN Arizona. The event is a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike and a 26 mile swim.
Due to the distances, I ramped up my training to an average of 20 hours-a-week, starting in July, until two weeks before the Nov. 24 event in Tempe, Arizona.
Reviewing my training logs – for swimming I did approximately 50 miles, the majority of which was at the Battle Creek Y pool. My biking consisted of close to 1000 miles, utilizing a bike trainer for the bulk of this training, and I ran almost 500 miles. I concentrated heavily on running and averaged 30 miles-a-week with one week over 40 miles.
The reason I have listed the mileage is that my hip replacement, by Dr. Burkhart, endured every minute of every mile and I never lost a day of training to fatigue or soreness. I had zero issues with my hip joint.
On race day I was able to complete the swim in 1:41. Water temp was 61 degrees and the air temp was 48 degrees. This was the worst part of the race. Onto the bike, I was doing pretty well until mile 80 where I had to stop and change a flat rear tire. This cost me more than 30 minutes. (Several tires were being changed on the race course due to cactus needles.) I went on to complete the 112 miles in 7:16. The run was completed in 6:45.
My takeaway – I could have pushed myself during the course in the bike and run. Due to getting 17 hours for a finisher metal, I opted to enjoy the race and slow my pace down. I think it was the right decision and did complete the race in 16 hours and 4 minutes. Even with a new hip, I take precaution in trying to not overdo my pace and keep it slow and steady.
My future plans are to do two 70.3 IRONMAN races in 2020. I don't have any full lRONMAN races in my near future due to the large amount of time it takes to dedicate to this event. I will say that I'm confident in my hip, going forward, and will continue to do these endurance events.
Again, thanks to Dr. Burkhardt and Bronson Orthopedic Specialists. They were top notch and I would recommend them for any orthopedic needs. Without them, I would not have been able to complete my goals!

Black Artists Matter Edit-a-thon
At the crossroads of art, justice, and intersectional feminism sits the Black Artists Matter Edit-a-thon, and you don't need to go far to contribute. On Aug. 11, D.C.'s National Museum of Women in the Arts will host its first entirely virtual edit-a-thon with Art+Feminism, a nonprofit that has facilitated more than a thousand edit-a-thon events since setting out to correct the information gap in 2014. The goal of Art+Feminism edit-a-thons is to correct and improve the Wikipedia entries for female artists. They hope to alleviate the gender gap in editorial representation on the site and enrich the available resources about underrepresented figures in the art world. This edit-a-thon will focus specifically on updating the Wikipedia pages for Black female artists whose work is displayed in NMWA's collection. Edit-a-thons are a tangible way to combat the well-established bias in information quality on Wikipedia. Despite being the 13th most visited site in the world and a major information gatekeeper, Wikipedia's track record with representation is troubling. Only 17 percent of biographical pages on Wikipedia are about women, and less than a quarter of U.S. Wikipedia contributors identify as female, according to a 2011 survey. Art+Feminism points out that when certain groups are excluded from our collective virtual history, "information about people like us gets skewed and misrepresented. The stories get mistold. We lose out on real history." At this virtual event, you can learn how to edit Wikipedia articles and join the thousands of people working to correct our virtual encyclopedia and the unbalanced narratives it constructs. The event begins at 10 a.m. on Aug. 11. Registration is required and is available at nmwa.org. Free. —Ryley Graham
Taking Action in Your Own Garden
Local nonprofit DC Natives is looking to boost local beauty while also healing the environment, one pollinator-friendly plant at a time. Pollinators—quite literally the birds and the bees—are responsible for moving pollen from flower to flower. This process is essential to the growth of foods like strawberries, avocados, onions, and nuts, in turn feeding humans and dozens of other species. But habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change are putting these essential pollinators in danger. To counter this, DC Natives works to emphasize native, pollinator-friendly plants. In the Mid-Atlantic region, these plants include field thistle, wild bergamot, and seaside goldenrod. Although the organization has community gardens in a handful of D.C. neighborhoods, it is also working to change the ecosystems in front of individual residences. DC Natives' Thorne Rankin, an expert in landscape design, will join the Anacostia Community Museum for a virtual discussion on how individuals can spark this environmental change. With one short class, you'll be able to brighten your living space and the broader ecosystem, and that's just the bee's knees. The event begins at 1 p.m. on Aug. 13. Registration is available at si.edu. Free. —Sarah Smith

While it's officially spring, your plants won't look like they've "sprung" for a while. So get a head start on growing by planting indoor wheatgrass. In a little over a week you'll have some impressive shoots that will impart fresh air and a verdant hue to your home.
Wheatgrass pots are a welcome addition to a dining table, a kitchen counter, and a bathroom. You can use a container of any size, so your indoor grass can fit anywhere you'd like.
Also, wheatgrass is pet-friendly, so no need to worry if pets nibble on it.
Here's what you'll need:
- A container in which to grow your grass (decorative teacups or even clear glass bowls work well, and you'll be able to see the sculptural, earthy roots in clear container.
- Wheat berries (found in bulk bins at the grocery store)
- Water
- Potting soil
- Rocks or other drainage material (optional)
Completely cover the wheat berries with water in a large bowl and let them soak for 8 to 12 hours. Then drain the berries, which will have swollen quite a bit, so be sure to use a large-enough bowl and an ample amount of water when soaking.
Fill your growing container with drainage material (if using) and about 2 inches of potting soil. Once you've drained the wheat berries, spread them evenly over the potting soil. Lightly water the wheat berries and continue to do so a few times a day (tip: A spray bottle filled with water makes this task a breeze). Sprouts should form in a few days and continue growing, so trim as needed.

model Cameron Young
words Rozwell
An interview with photographer Kira Ricard.
If you could live anywhere on this awesome planet, where would you build your dream home?
If I could live anywhere in the world I'd choose to live somewhere in Europe. The architecture and history there is endless. It's essentially a photographer's playground.
What is your current state of mind before we continue with the interview?
Excited and nervous, I've been doing a lot of shooting and no matter how many times I do it I always get nervous just before.
What sort of work do you specialize in?
I specialize in editorial/fashion and creative photography.
Did you go to school to study photography?
I have not gone to school for photography, I haven't even graduated high school yet, however I intend to study film and directing.
How long have you been a photographer?
Since 2016 with my middle school yearbook, I got a Camera for Christmas that year and that was the beginning.
What or who got you started in photography?My uncle gave me a disposable camera on a trip when I was 5 or 6 and I had more fun taking photos than anything else we did.
How would you describe your style?
I would describe my style as a combination of dark with a lot of berry tones, the duality of my photography is important.
What type of cameras do you shoot with?
Canon EOS Rebel T6Canon Rebel Ti (35mm Film)
What is your favorite photography accessory, other than your camera?
My camera bag, I received it recently as a Christmas gift, its galaxy print, I love space and it has definitely made getting ready for a shoot a lot easier.
If you had to choose one lens which one would it be and why?
My Canon EF 18-135mm, I like a zoom lens when I'm shooting because I can get more of a variation of shot from one angle without having to move as much.
What lighting equipment do you take on a shoot?
My external flash and a reflector, I typically shoot during the day for natural light.
Can you describe how and when you use flash, video light, reflectors and natural light during a shoot?
I tend to use flash on the rare occasion that I shoot at night in addition, however I use reflectors during the day or during the night, in order to get a good sharp photo of the model(s) it's important to have good lighting which is why I prefer natural light, with a reflector.
What is your favorite computer and editing software? Are you a MAC or PC lover?
My favorite computer is my Macbook, it's really light and it's small which I like because I have small hands. I also primarily use Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom.
How important is your editing software in your final images?
Mildly important, I like to edit my photos but I don't do any extreme retouching ie. dodge and burn, I prefer to focus on composition and colors for my photos than relying on editing to make my photos good.
Do you plan on buying any new equipment and if so what do you have your eyes on?
I have my eyes on some film developing equipment, I started shooting film recently and I absolutely love it, however I want to get more involved in the process.
Can you briefly describe for the readers your photographic workflow?
60% of my photography is planning, I like to be able to start shooting and get the shots that are needed so that there's time to get some more artistic shots and even trying new things. The other 40% is dedicated to shooting and editing and the ratio differs each time, but planning is the most important part to me.
How do you feel about cropping an image?
Cropping an image is important especially portraits because there are certain features and things that should be included in order to make the photo complete.
What gives you ideas and inspires you to create such great imagery?
History and its events and how they are being retold in the future,
What has been your most memorable assignment and why?
I challenged myself to 30 days of photography?/editing and on the third day I had to photoshop myself into a background of 6-7 cameras and it took me forever. I attempted to get it done in way less time than I actually had and I will never do that again.
Do you have an assistant? If so why?
No I do not.
Where would be your dream destination assignment?
Paris, I have a friend who is a fashion designer and I love her work, not just because she's my friend, and in a perfect world we'd get to work together, even more so since I do editorial and fashion photography.
What is your favorite image you have shot recently?
A photo I recently took of one of my old friends, it was more of a shoot just for fun but the photos turned out to be some of my personal best.
What do you think of the photography industry at the moment and where do you see it in 5 years from now?
I think the photography industry as it is now is going to see a downfall of the hierarchy of photographers who have been deemed good solely because they've shot with celebrities. In 5 years I see a reduction of this clout culture Instagram fed and an increase in people creating more for themselves again, almost like a second renaissance.
A photographer who inspires you?
Vuhlandes, he's a medium format film and digital photographer based out of Detroit. His work is stunning to look at and his style is so unique that once you see one of his photos you can recognize any of his photos.
A website and/or blog you visit often?
Pinterest, when you're an artist of any kind you never stop wanting to create, even if you're tired so for me I use Pinterest to create Moodboards for future shoots.
The first photographer that comes to your mind and why?
Jessica Kobeissi, I'm watching her edit right now as I fill out this interview, since making the switch from landscape to portrait photography her videos have really helped me transition.
The last workshop or seminar you attended and why?
I attended a virtual seminar on color grading. I wanted to get a better grasp on the concept not just for photo but also video.
How important is an awesome website for your business?
Extremely, even if it's just a basic portfolio or your name and a link to your social media. It's an essential to seeming and being professional.
Is there anybody or anything you would love to photograph?
I want to photograph Yara Shahidi and Luka Sabbat. In that order, I know that the photos would be amazing and the shoot itself would be immaculate. I w
What advice do you have for somebody who wants to pursue photography?
The same advice everyone else probably gives, get a camera and start taking photos, and just keep taking photos until you're happy with them.
Can you tell us the true basis of your inspiration?
I have a love for both space and mythology so a lot of the creative work I do is influenced by those two things meanwhile for my editorial style shoots I will usually choose a some god or goddess to embody that shoot, for example Hera the Queen of the Greek Gods, or Ra the Egyptian Sun God.
Is there anything you would have done differently during your photographic career?
I wish I would have started sooner. I was so afraid of people not liking my work I almost forgot that I liked it.
If you could be invisible for one day with your camera…
Oh for sure break into area 51, people need answers and I would have the ability to get them. But on a serious note I'd probably just take some candid shots of my friends so I could surprise them.
Something you're still learning?
Dodge and Burn editing, it'll be another few months before I get good at it.
Something you're saving up for?
Medium Format Camera
If you could have lunch with anyone, who would it be?
Probably Tim Burton, his directing style is so aesthetically pleasing and he has a lot of talent it'd be amazing to get to talk to him about his creative process.
First thing you would do if you won the lottery?
Buy a Mamiya Medium Format camera.
What photographic ambitions have you not yet achieved?
Fully learning how to retouch, some of these techniques are really hard and are just about practicing.
What would you like to be doing in 5 years from now?
Directing my first feature film, or being a full time photographer
And the last questions, if you had one wish…
I think I'd wish for infinite fries, I know it's not photography related but they're my favorite food.

When I read the book blurb which told the story of Tom who was shy around women and how Jessica decides to help him iron those out so he can find a bride, truth be told, this was not what I had expected. Possibly, because the blurb said nothing about the book being a period story as opposed to a contemporary romance. Much as I had not expected awkwardness around women to translate into being something of a bumbling idiot. However, if the aim was to create an atypical romantic hero, the purpose was well-served.
Jessica is engaged to Peter when she meets Tom.Or rather when Tom stumbles into her life; literally. But instead of being nasty like most other people, Jessica feels bad for poor Tom and thinks of helping him get over his awkwardness. Needless to say that first experiment does not go well. So, she says to herself, 'why don't I teach this poor boy how to dance?'
An up and coming young man and self assured as he is, Peter is not bothered much by his fiancee's altruism. But do you think that was a good idea? Or did Jessica use it as an escape route away from a hellish Mother-in-law.
Well, read it and you'll find out.
I thought the characters weren't particularly well-rounded and though the book had its moments it wasn't particularly a great read. be However, it would probably be nice for a Sunday afternoon's lazy read.
I'd give this one a 2.5.

D.O. San Antonio Valley
Bright and intense red color with violet hues. The wine opens with deep red fruit aromas along with cocoa and spices. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with round and smooth tannins. The blend exhibits all the typical characteristics of each variety: the Cabernet Franc provides structure and tannins to the wine, the Malbec gives the floral notes, the Syrah add spiciness and aromas of violet and wet earth. The Petit Verdot gives the perfect final touch to the blend. The result is a complex and long lasting wine with a well-integrated oak
The ideal companion for red meat barbecues, especially Patagonian lamb, pasta, spicy food and mature cheese. Serve at 64 °Fahrenheit (18 °Celsius).

The far right rears its ugly head
Xenophobes and ex-communists have made a strong showing in regional elections in eastern Germany at the expense of more centrist, much larger parties. Voters have ventured far to the right and left in economic frustration
Apfel (far left), champion of the far right
THE Frauenkirche, a baroque, domed cathedral that once dominated Dresden's skyline, was flattened by Allied bombing in the second world war. The reconstruction of the cathedral, begun around the time of Germany's reunification in 1990, is now nearing completion. Saxony, the eastern state of which Dresden is the capital, hopes the new cathedral will symbolise the state's economic and cultural revival. But sadly the Frauenkirche is not the only remnant of Germany's past now enjoying a recovery of its fortunes. On Sunday September 19th, the National Democratic Party (NPD), which the German government has compared with the Nazis, attracted 9.2% of the vote in Saxony's regional elections—the first time the party has won seats in any state assembly since 1968.
In the neighbouring state of Brandenburg, another far-right party, the German People's Union (DVU), also won seats in the regional parliament. But in Brandenburg, the show was stolen by throwbacks to the communist era, not the fascists who came before them. The Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS), composed mostly of former communists, won 28% of the vote, establishing itself in second place behind Chancellor Gerhard Schröder's party, the Social Democrats (SPD). Only a pact between the SPD and the Christian Democrats (CDU) will deny the ex-communists a share of power in this region that turned its back on state socialism 15 years ago.
Germany's electoral system is designed to keep radicalism in check. Proportional representation often deprives any one party of an outright majority, ensuring government by coalition and consensus. Indeed, Sunday's elections saw the CDU lose its absolute majority in Saxony. But though no party can gain a stranglehold over German politics, smaller parties can establish a foothold. Any legitimate party that captures at least 5% of the votes in regional polls can claim seats in the state assembly. The NPD will occupy 12 in Saxony. Thus, unlike first-past-the-post electoral systems such as Britain's, where the big parties clustered in the centre of the political spectrum crowd out extremists on either wing, Germany's system gives minority parties that pass the 5% threshold a voice equal to their votes.
The NPD will use its voice to express some ugly sentiments. "Today is a fantastic day for all Germans who still want to be Germans," declared Holger Apfel, a leading NPD candidate. The party is xenophobic, anti-Semitic and neo-Nazi in its allegiances. The government has tried to ban it, but the constitutional court rejected the case last year on a technicality. In recent years, the NPD had taken a greater interest in street demagoguery than in parliamentary politics. Sunday's results may not change that: 12 seats in one state assembly is not much of a political base to build on. Nonetheless, the party's achievements in the election will tarnish Saxony's image. Georg Milbradt, Saxony's premier, is worried it might deter foreign investors.
The core of Apfel's appeal
Political extremism, on the right and on the left, is a product of economic frustration. Saxony has fared better than the other four eastern states, or Länder, yoked together with West Germany after the Berlin Wall fell—it has attracted tourists, biotech companies and semiconductor plants—but its living standards still lag far behind the west. Indeed, Horst Köhler, Germany's president, gave warning last week that the gap between west and east might never close. The eastern Länder, some of the most prosperous parts of Germany before the second world war, have become Europe's second Mezzogiorno (the chronically depressed region in southern Italy). They face a future of "emigration, resignation and sullen apathy", in the words of Wolfgang Thierse, president of the Bundestag.
But Mr Schröder's economic reforms have converted that sullen apathy into fervent outrage. From January, he will cut the benefits paid to the long-term jobless and refuse benefits to those not seriously looking for work. In eastern Germany, where the long-term unemployed are concentrated, the cuts are seen as a betrayal of the promises of reunification. Tens of thousands of easterners have taken to the streets each Monday in recent weeks to express their anger.
Incensed by Mr Schröder's reforms, east Germans know whom to vote against. But it is less clear whom they should vote for. The main opposition party, the CDU, quibbles with the government's reforms, resorting to the odd tactical strike against them, but it cannot oppose them wholesale. A party of burghers and businessmen can hardly oppose Mr Schröder's efforts to make the welfare state affordable and the German economy safe for business.
Mr Schröder and the CDU are both convinced there is no alternative. But a significant proportion of the eastern electorate has yet to reach the same conclusion. The hundreds of thousands of votes cast for the ex-communists and the xenophobes are expressions of their desire for something different from what the main parties are offering—they do not, it seems, much care what.

Today's blog post written by Tanner, the Rennebeck's family dog who lives in Ross Township.
Yesterday, I heard some bad news. So I asked John and my dog mom, Rachael, if I could write today's blog post. The problem: the Ross Township commissioners say there are too many deer.. like the ones in my back yard every day.
FYI, you KNOW for sure that I am writing this blog myself because, had a human written it in a dog voice, there would be a ton of paltry, patronizing "AARF, AARF" and "RUFF, RUFF" inserts in between words!
Here's the deal…yesterday, I was laying on my bed, like most every day, and I overheard that the Ross Township commissioners and some residents want to lower the township deer population. Something about ruining plants, cars, etc… blah, blah, blah!
What is wrong with the deer? Why are we getting rid of them? They are my friends!
Listen, I have made a concerted effort to subdue my God-given instincts of bringing home dead rabbits and squirrel heads when I actually get outside. I haven't chewed a shoe or a TV remote in forever and I haven't pooped in the house in.. I don't know HOW long. I pretty much sleep all day, other than being let out to pee and poop a couple of times.
I look out my window every day and bark at those deer. Sometimes I even run around inside the house as if I am going to chase them. They are like my very own tread mill or my Peleton Bike….my NETFLIX.. my Mrs. Maisel!
If you're gonna take away my entertainment, I want some retribution. Like maybe a steak or a 5-lb Kong full of crunchy, organic, farm-to-table, peanut butter, or, at the VERY least, someone going out to the back yard and cleaning up all of the well-preserved fall and winter poop, Ya Jagoffs!
Author's (Tanner) Note: By the way, social media and smartphone gaming is the downfall of the future civilization. I used to get regular butt and head scratches throughout the day. Now, I get people walking by me looking at their phones! I pretty much have to nose a crouch to get any attention these days.

6 Fun Oktoberfest 2015 Festivals Happening In And Around Montreal
Montreal may be a ways away from the homeland of Oktoberfest, Germany, but that hasn't stopped us from taking the opportunity to partake in the rituals. Who wouldn't want an excuse to drink giant steins of beer and eat delicious German sausage and sauerkraut? I know I do.
Here are 6 Oktoberfest events happening in and around Montreal for you to get your drink on.
1. Beau's Oktoberfest
Just outside of Quebec, in Vankleek Hill, Ontario, Beau's Oktoberfest will be raging from October 2-3 at the Vankleek Hill Fairgrounds. They will have 14 different kinds of beer, including 5 new Beau's beers that have yet to been released. There will also be quite a few musical guests including Yukon Blonde and Alvvays. It's sure to be a rocking good time.
2. Marché Atwater Oktoberfest
From October 2-4, our very own Marche Atwater will be hosting an amazing Oktoberfest. More than 40 micro-breweries from all over Montreal will come together to give you the best few days ever. The best part is that beer coupons are 3 for $1 - how amazing is that?! Plus, fifty cents from every dollar will go to the Montreal Children's Hospital so you can feel even better while throwing back a few glasses. If you start to feel a little peckish, the market's merchants will be serving up some festive Oktoberfest treats.
3. Sherbrooke Oktoberfest
On October 2nd starting at 6pm, you can head on over to Université de Sherbrooke for their Oktoberfest where you'll be able to taste some delicious Bavarian food and then wash it all down with imported authentic beers. Local musicians will also be there to provide a soundtrack to what is sure to be an epic night.
4. Das Bier Oktoberfest
For an Oktoberfest that's filled with beer and games, Das Bier is where you need to be. From October 1-4 their Oktoberfest will give you the chance to drink tons of beer, play beer pong, eat sausage, and enter to win $4000 worth of prizes. And best of all it's right here in Montreal.
5. Oktoberfest Ottawa
While it's a little bit of a drive to get there, Oktoberfest Ottawa is a definite must. Not only do they have an amazing selection of beer, cider, wine and food, they're also home to the world's largest beer tent (340ft) which they're planning on making even longer this year. This is not a party that you'll want to miss.
6. Gerts
It's no secret that McGill students know how to party, so obviously the student bar there is hosting its own Oktoberfest event. On October 2nd you can head over to Gerts to enjoy full litre steins of beer (and you get to keep the stein!), German drinking tunes, and delicious food. Tickets are just $10, so make sure you get yours before they're sold old.

Stian Øby Johansen, who is writing a PhD thesis on the accountability mechanisms of international organizations, invites MultiRights researchers and other interested persons to a brainstorming seminar. The topic to be discussed is the choice of elements that should be looked at when appraising the accountability mechanisms of IOs.

Mads Andenæs will act as commentator.
On 18 December 2014, the Court of Justice of the European Union found the Draft Agreement on the European Union's Accession to the ECHR to be incompatible with EU Law. In this seminar Stian Øby Johansen provides an analysis of the judgment and its consequences.
Michael Reiertsen is a Phd research fellow at the Department of Public and International Law, UiO. He is writing a Phd thesis with the working title "The ECHR Article 13 – Past, Present and Future".
In this MultiRights seminar, Postdoctoral Fellow Claudio Corradetti will present his article that is part of a special issue on "Legal Cosmopolitanism and the Courts", edited by Corradetti, in Transnational Legal Theory.
In this MultiRights Seminar Nora Sveaass, Associate Professor at the Department of Psychology of the University of Oslo, will share some experiences from her work in the UN Committee against Torture and the UN Sub-committee on Prevention of Torture.
In this MultiRights Seminar Dr Kanstantsin Dzehtsiarou will address the question of legitimacy of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR or Court).
In this MultiRights seminar Professor Janneke Gerards will present her paper "Procedural Review of the European Court of Human Rights - a Typology". The speaker is professor of European Law and head of the department of European and International Law at the Radbound University.
The speaker in this MultiRights seminar is Andrew Drzemczewski, the Head of the Parlamentary Assembly's Legal Affairs and Human Rights Department.
This workshop will consider the current status of the margin of appreciation doctrine and reflect on how the principle of subsidiarity does and should inform the ECtHR's practice of affording states such margin.
During this MultiRights seminar Professor of Philosophy and Law, University of Miami, Jim W. Nickel, will speak about the support and conflict within systems of rights. Jim W. Nickel teaches and writes in human rights law and theory, jurisprudence, and political philosophy. He is the author of "Making Sense of Human Rights"(2nd ed. 2007) and many articles in philosophy and law.
In this MultiRights Seminar Morten Ruud will talk about the reform process that is currently underway in the follow-up of the Brighton Declaration of 2012. He will focus on the enforcement system under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), its challenges and need for reform.
Both Great Britain and Russia have had cases brought against them to the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) because they do not allow prisoners the right to vote. The ECtHR ruled that this ban is a violation of the Convention. This project aims to assess why this issue is highly controversial in some States while it passes unnoticed in others.
In this seminar Geir Ulfstein presents a draft article where he argues that the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) should be seen as a constitutionalized, rather than a constitutional court for Europe.
In this seminar Postdoctoral Fellow Matthew William Saul will present his paper addressing how the processes of national parliaments feature in the European Court of Human Rights' (ECtHR's) practice of affording states a margin of appreciation.
How national parliaments deal with human rights issues is of central importance to the realisation of human rights. This workshop will gather a group of experts to identify and assesses the various ways in which international human rights judiciary (IHRJ) connects with national parliaments.
MultiRights Postdoctoral Fellow Matthew Saul presents his ongoing research on the impact of international human rights courts and tribunals on domestic Parliaments.
In this MultiRights seminar Shai Dothan will present his paper "Why granting states a margin of appreciation supports the formation of a genuine European consensus".

So way back in the day I posted about the movies I watch that always get me in the Halloween spirit. However, I realized that I have never shared my list of movies that always help get me in the Christmas spirit. And everyone needs some Christmas spirit every now and then, so here we go.
So it doesn't really have to be Christmas for me to want to watch this movie because it's one of my all time favorites but I love watching it around Christmastime nonetheless. All the stories make me laugh, make me cry, make me happy and ah I just love it.
I can't even count how many times I've watched this movie since I was a kid, it always makes me laugh. And really Macualay Culkin was one seriously cute kid. And the end when everyoen comes home for Christmas always makes me a wee bit teary
A more recent addition to my Christmastime movie viewing but I LOVE this movie. The plot is quite predictable but the humor and the characters (hello I love Kate Winslet) are great and the story is just so cute! And I love Jude Law's daughters in the movie and just ah, this movie is just cute.
It's true, I have a crush on Jimmy Stewart. I also have a crush on black and white films and this one is one of my favorites. Although I only first saw it a couple years ago I love it and it has turned into a Christmas Eve viewing tradition and it makes me so happy. The story has such good message and it's just such a Christmas classic.
Another Christmas classic. This movie is just so cute and makes me want to believe in Santa Clause forever and ever.
So those are my Christmas movies, the ones I watch every year. Do you have certain movies you watch every Christmas? Let me know!
happy wednesday!
