The Waunakee Village Center is partnering with Dreambikes, Waunakee Police Department and Waunakee Neighborhood Connection to offer a free community bike rodeo and donation event!!! The Bike Rodeo is designed to promote safe riding habits and skills for younger riders. Participants are typically elementary to intermediate school age (5-12). Participants will ride their bike through a series of courses that help them to develop skills to avoid typical crashes as well as learning to watch their surroundings for traffic, other riders, road hazards etc. All participants are given a checklist and if completed they enter a drawing and win a prize! Prizes bought and paid for by the Waunakee Police Department. Prizes include: Helmets, locks, lights and other bike related items. The Bike Rodeo is a great way for officers to interact in a positive way with the youth of our community. DreamBike’s trained staff will be available to inspect all of the bikes and offer simple fixes on site. Bicycle crashes can happen for many reasons and improper bike maintenance is one of those reasons. Simple things like a loose chain, tire and brake cable or even non-functioning brakes can be a major cause of a crash. These crashes can be prevented through simple maintenance. DreamBikes will also be collecting gently used bikes. These bikes will be tuned up and used to support the mission of Tri 4 Schools Trail Run DreamBikes. We will also be partnering with the Waunakee The Village Center is excited to Neighborhood Connection to collect bikes for Waunakee families continue our partnership with Tri 4 that are in need of a dependable bike.

Last weekend they had a game against the Thunderbirds and won easily. They should get another win against the Cannons next week. A real test for the Empire will be in two weeks, when they face the Breeze. 2. Chicago Union Chicago had a great weekend; they beat the Mechanix 30-13 and advanced to 3-0 on the season. Danny Miller played extremely well for them and earned player of the game from the Union. Their next game is against the AlleyCats, who have only beaten the Mechanix this year. 3. DC Breeze The game last weekend for the Breeze was amazing. Their offense and defense both had completion percentages above 90. Young players such as Jacques Nissen and Duncan Fitzgerald stepped up and played well. A.J. Merriman had a huge performance with 3 blocks and 6 scores. They are moving up a spot this week. 4. Raleigh Flyers The Flyers are moving down a spot this week, but that is only because the Breeze played exceptionally well. The Flyers got their first win of the season last weekend and have an easier schedule on the horizon. The next three games they play should be easy wins. 5. Dallas Roughnecks Dallas is staying in the same spot this week. They have only played two games and are currently 1-1. Even though they have only played two games, they did beat a good Aviators team this week.

  • Teamup AUDL Power Rankings
    TeamUp Fantasy AUDL Power Rankings (7/29 - 8/4) https://www.teamupfantasy.com/ 1. Atlanta Hustle Atlanta proved why they should be number one last weekend. They played the Empire and put on a clinic, winning by a score of 22-21. The junky zone the Hustle use makes opposing offenses make a lot of throws and increases the chance of a turnover. Atlanta’s defense works together well in this zone, almost looking like a machine. 2. New York Empire The Empire may have lost, but they are still moving up this week. They have locked it in after a couple shaky performances earlier in the season. Losing to the Hustle by just one is nothing to be ashamed of. Babbitt carried the Empire’s defense and got 4 blocks last week. 3. Chicago Union The Union are moving down a spot this week, but they didn’t play terribly. They beat the Wind Chill, who only had one loss before that game. Minnesota collected 13 blocks against them, but besides that they only had 7 other turnovers. Their offense, which is led by Janas, valued the disc and made the Wind Chill earn their turnovers. 4. DC Breeze The Breeze did not have a game last weekend, which could be a good or bad thing. They get rest, but this also gives them more time to think about their loss to the Hustle two weeks ago. Next week they face the Phoenix, which should be a win for the Breeze. 5. Raleigh Flyers Raleigh was another team that did not have a game last weekend.

BLOOD ON THE THIRD COAST Andrea Rochelle Blimling PROLOGUE In describing the national fadeout of the New Left movement of the nineteen­ sixties, historian Todd Gitlin writes that "activism never recovered from the summer vacation of 1970," and on the national level, this is most certainly the case. Though popular anti-war opinion increased after the Cambodia/Kent State uprisings in the spring of that year, student anti-war protests and other outward expressions of frustration declined in size and intensity across the country. The 1970-71 school year had fewer protests than either 1968-69 or 1969-70, and media attention declined from forty percent of protests covered in 1969-70 to ten percent in 1970-71.1 The national leadership of the best-known New Left organization, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), split during its national convention in the summer of 1969.
