The · former president should · have seen this moment coming. And per· haps he did. His administralion was too willing to play politics with our future. The American people grew weary of it and desperately wanted them to go. Bush's final defense was to pat himsel f on the bark: "I was willing to make the tough decisions." Tough decisions? He was all too willing to make the wrong decisions . Once agail\· the president acted as if there were no connection between those decisions and the broken state of the economy and the depth and number of problems we face worldwide.

Police and medical responders are ready to go. When a whistle blows Saturday, afternoon, University uf WisconsinMadison students will begin pelting each other with .snowballs in a fight they hope will go down in history. More than 3,700 students at Michigan Technological University in 2006 laid claim to the l~est snowball fight, accordmg to the Guinness Book of World Records. · Organizer Mike Basak, a UW-Madison freshman, said Saturday's snow showdown would likely · beat that record. though he's decided not to bother with the hassle of submitting it to Guinness. More than 4.000 people are. members of the event's Face)look group. and word continues to spread as rival dormitories get ready to rumble in the center of campus. . "Once the whistle blows. let the chaos ensue!" Basak said. The ground rules are sim, pie: No throwing at cars. No throwing at buildings. And don't hit innocent passersby. . Some suspect {'OOr timing means the Michtgan record . might not fall. . Temperatures in Madison were forecast to remain in single .digits Satuiday. Wisconsin's men's basketball team plays at Illinois at the time of the light. And although snow is every- · where on campus, it's the: · powdery kind that's hard tQ pack. . . Still, school officials are prepared for the event. UW-Madison spokesman John Lucas said in a statement that officials would monitor the event, which he noted wasn't university- . sanctioned. "We want students to be able to enjoy winter . and have fun, but safety is also an important ' priority," he. wrote. The Dean of Students· office recruited a stupent group of volunteer emergency medical technicians to be on the scene. One of its . organizers, Katie Egan. said members would be ready to treat injuries such as bleeding and hypothermia and call 911 if needed. Police Sgt. Jason Whitney said officers were gening in touch with the organizers and would be ready Saturday. Patrolling snow- , ball fights was something new for his force, he said. As for judging a winner, Basak said, that was not the. point. "It's just a bunch of chaos until it all kind of dies down," he said. · · One more reason to FINANCE YOUR VEHICLE WITH ·sTATE FARM BANK~. t:inance your vehicle with State Parm Bank 11nd receive Total loss Debt Ca ncellation•.

Police and medical responders are ready to go. When a whistle blows Saturday, afternoon, University uf WisconsinMadison students will begin pelting each other with .snowballs in a fight they hope will go down in history. More than 3,700 students at Michigan Technological University in 2006 laid claim to the l~est snowball fight, accordmg to the Guinness Book of World Records. · Organizer Mike Basak, a UW-Madison freshman, said Saturday's snow showdown would likely · beat that record. though he's decided not to bother with the hassle of submitting it to Guinness. More than 4.000 people are. members of the event's Face)look group. and word continues to spread as rival dormitories get ready to rumble in the center of campus. . "Once the whistle blows. let the chaos ensue!" Basak said. The ground rules are sim, pie: No throwing at cars. No throwing at buildings. And don't hit innocent passersby. . Some suspect {'OOr timing means the Michtgan record . might not fall. . Temperatures in Madison were forecast to remain in single .digits Satuiday. Wisconsin's men's basketball team plays at Illinois at the time of the light. And although snow is every- · where on campus, it's the: · powdery kind that's hard tQ pack. . . Still, school officials are prepared for the event. UW-Madison spokesman John Lucas said in a statement that officials would monitor the event, which he noted wasn't university- . sanctioned. "We want students to be able to enjoy winter . and have fun, but safety is also an important ' priority," he. wrote. The Dean of Students· office recruited a stupent group of volunteer emergency medical technicians to be on the scene. One of its . organizers, Katie Egan. said members would be ready to treat injuries such as bleeding and hypothermia and call 911 if needed. Police Sgt. Jason Whitney said officers were gening in touch with the organizers and would be ready Saturday. Patrolling snow- , ball fights was something new for his force, he said. As for judging a winner, Basak said, that was not the. point. "It's just a bunch of chaos until it all kind of dies down," he said. · · One more reason to FINANCE YOUR VEHICLE WITH ·sTATE FARM BANK~. t:inance your vehicle with State Parm Bank 11nd receive Total loss Debt Ca ncellation•.

As winter ends. there are opportunities to frost seed legumes (nitro11en fixing plants) into existmg pasture. The addition of legumes· into older pastures increases yields and improves.quality withou liCufion of large amounts · costly commercial nitrogen . · . seeding involves broadcasting a grass or legume seed over a ·pasrure and letting the natural freeze/thaw cycles of late winter and early spring move the seed into good contact with the soil. The best time to frost seed is usually from midFebruary to the end of March. "A basi.c requirement for frost' seeding success is to make sure that the sod covet has been opened up, and that there is not much llfOWth present to prevent the seed from coming into contact .with· bare soil," states Rory Lewandowski, Ohio State University Extension Educator in Athens County. "Generally, a pasture is prepared for frost seeding by grazing it down hard, although some li&ht tillage or a close mowina could also be used." Do you have a field or pasture thli.t has been grazed m .late . winter? Lewandowski also suggests that in early March, the hoof action of animals o~ns up bare ground in the sod.

As winter ends. there are opportunities to frost seed legumes (nitro11en fixing plants) into existmg pasture. The addition of legumes· into older pastures increases yields and improves.quality withou liCufion of large amounts · costly commercial nitrogen . · . seeding involves broadcasting a grass or legume seed over a ·pasrure and letting the natural freeze/thaw cycles of late winter and early spring move the seed into good contact with the soil. The best time to frost seed is usually from midFebruary to the end of March. "A basi.c requirement for frost' seeding success is to make sure that the sod covet has been opened up, and that there is not much llfOWth present to prevent the seed from coming into contact .with· bare soil," states Rory Lewandowski, Ohio State University Extension Educator in Athens County. "Generally, a pasture is prepared for frost seeding by grazing it down hard, although some li&ht tillage or a close mowina could also be used." Do you have a field or pasture thli.t has been grazed m .late . winter? Lewandowski also suggests that in early March, the hoof action of animals o~ns up bare ground in the sod.
