There are many differences in the NCAA football and NFL football. For one, the rules are totally different in college football than the NFL. In the NFL, when a player catches a ball, he must have both feet in bounds, yet in college football, it's only necessary for them to have one foot in bounds. That is certainly a big difference, especially when players from the NCAA have to adjust how they play after being drafted into the NFL. Another major different in the two types of football is when there is a pass interference. In the NCAA, it would be considered a fifteen-yard penalty, but in the NFL, the players are penalized from the spot of the foul. One of the biggest differences between the NCAA and...

James Madison once remarked, "with respect to the two words general welfare, I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators." In writing that letter to James Robertson, he reiterated the sentiments he shared with the nation in Federalist 41 where he denounced objections by the anti-Federalists to the term "general Welfare" being included in the Constitution because of it's presumption of an unlimited and open ended scope as without "color". The fear of federally elected politicians...
It all started with my mid-life crisis. My youngest child would be starting school soon and I needed to think about re-entering the work force. It was time to answer that age-old question of "what did I want to do when I grew up." My grandfather had always told me, "Do what you love, be the best at it and the money will take care of itself." Maybe I had watched too many episodes of "Little House on the Prairie" as a child but what I love to do more than anything is homesteading. I love gardening, raising animals, quilting, gathering firewood, baking bread in a wood cookstove and living close to the land. From this foundation, the idea of Huckleberry Tent and Breakfast was born. I set out to...

Despite a campaign of disinformation and inaccuracies, I can state categorically that the new Idaho record pike may have been caught in Lake Coeur d'Alene. There may, however, be some questions regarding the validity of the new record and the manner in which the fish was caught. The Idaho Fish and Wildlife website already lists the new record seemingly without reservations. I was always under the impression that for a record to be valid that the catch had to be made by the angler "unassisted". Now I can understand your buddy handling the net when you bring the fish up to the boat or bank, but the reports I have read says that Bob Ringer of Post Falls, (or Hayden), reports vary, was assisted by...
