North Dakota Legislature is attempting to roll back the will of the voters! | When 64% of North Dakotans said yes to medical marijuana last November, seriously ill patients in the state were thrilled that they would finally be able to access their medicine. Unfortunately, lawmakers have proposed to alter the program beyond recognition. Urge your lawmakers to vote NO on SB 2344 and keep Measure 5 intact! If passed, SB 2344 would prohibit whole plant cannabis and all other forms of cannabis other than liquids and pills. You can learn more about the benefits of whole plant here. SB 2344 would also eliminate the already very restrictive home cultivation provision, which applies only to patients living more than 40 miles from a dispensary. The bill would drastically raise costs, making the program out of reach for many. It undermines the will of the voters, substituting lawmakers' judgment for that of their constituents. >> Learn more >>

UP IN SMOKE: THE MEDICINAL MARIJUANA DEBATE | North Dakota Law Review - 1999, 75 N. Dak. L. Rev. 555; Author: Deborah Garner | Excerpt: I. INTRODUCTION "The marijuana, cannabis or hemp plant is one of the oldest psychoactive plants known to humanity." 1 It grows as a weed, is cultivated all over the world and is one of the most widely diversified plants. 2 The first recorded use of marijuana is found in the Herbal, written between 400 and 500 B.C. 3 Even at that time, some felt that marijuana was evil, while others felt that it would lead them to a utopia. 4 Today, marijuana is a subject of intense social, political, legal and medical controversy concerning how dangerous or safe it is. 5 The drug's opponents view marijuana "as an addicting drug that leads to personality deterioration and psychoses and to criminal behavior and sexual excess." 6 In fact, seventy-five percent of criminal offenders in the United States believe they were under the influence of marijuana at the time they committed the crime, and seven percent of homicides are believed to be directly related to the use of marijuana. 7 Its proponents, on the other hand, assert that marijuana is no more harmful than aspirin and therefore should be equally available. 8 The current trend in the marijuana controversy, as seen in recent legislative enactments in both California and Arizona, is legalization of marijuana for medical uses. 9 These enactments are substantial stepping stones for the legalization of the drug. 10 This Note discusses the legalization of marijuana for medical use.

This is a chain e-mail you can't refuse. Unlike most, this will actually help you - and a whole buncha others - just by passing it on. Cannabis consumer or not - from the folks just trying to take care of themselves or a loved one to those who simply see the expensive, immoral waste of making war on the sick and dying - everyone is affected by this issue.
To accomplish this you need to first click on the following links and send a message to all the reps and media you can on the issue. Then get everybody else to do the same. And follow up.
To do this you need to tell everybody you know. And can confide in. Then/or anonymously tell everybody you don't know - or can't confide in. Yet.
Tell everybody else by Letters-to-the-Editor, displaying signage at street corners and over-passes (wear trenchcoat, fedora and sunglasses if afraid of exposure), and/or anonymously leaving literature and posting on-line at places where people are likely to find it. Coffeeshops are good places to leave printed material and you can go to the websites of the local newspapers to post items as well. More ideas and supporting tools via the links below.
Inform, Educate, Activate
INFORM and EDUCATE. Distribute medical marijuana brochures and other literature to your friends, family, local leaders and elected officials in an effort to educate the public and garner support. Educate your community by Printing, posting and handing out Flyers and other Printables in a mall, coffee shop, laundromat, college campus, lamp post, telephone poll, business window (ask first), hospital, or anywhere people will see them. Contact these groups for some. If you or your Organization is doing the same, please Post It or give us Feed Back.

You can also print and hand out MPP's medical marijuana brochures to your friends, family, local leaders and elected officials in an effort to educate the public and garner support.
OUTREACH and Gather TESTIMONY. Ask your doctor, clergy member, local leader, or organization you are a member of to sign a statement of principle. One way to get that done is to download MPPs medical marijuana statement of principle, print it out, and ask your doctor or other individual to sign it the next time you have the opportunity. Then send it to MPP at P.O. Box 77492, Washington, D.C. 20013.

Health Freedom and Medical Marijuana in North Dakota - Posted on February 10, 2010 by John LaPlante | Medical marijuana will be coming to North Dakota, if one of the state's residents gets his way. Del Snavely, who used to used medical marijuana while living in the state of Washington, is working on securing a ballot measure to enact a similar law in North Dakota. I've never smoked a joint in my life and have no desire to do so, yet I find the med-marijuana campaign–which has succeeded in "more than dozen states," according to the article–encouraging. First, it's simply a pro-freedom move. It also expands the scope of health care options by a tiny bit. Visit: http://statehousecall.org/?p=7806

It is time to put patients first and stand up for a compassionate medical marijuana program! >> Visit - http://www.mpp.org/states/north-dakota/ Decriminalization and prohibition | North Dakota has some of the harshest marijuana laws in the country. First offense possession of even a single joint is punishable by up to a year in prison and a fine of up to $2,000. These severe penalties disproportionately affect racial minorities. A 2013 study by the American Civil Liberties Union found that although blacks and whites use marijuana at nearly identical rates, blacks in North Dakota are 4.4 times more likely than whites to be arrested for marijuana possession.
Speak out: Please take a moment to send a letter to your legislators asking them to reduce the penalty for possession of marijuana to a civil fine or asking them to end marijuana prohibition entirely.

North Dakota marijuana Archives - Medical Marijuana North Dakota man heads initiative to legalize medical marijuana By The Associated Press Thursday, Aug 20, 2015 | BISMARCK, N.D. — A Fargo man said Wednesday that he will campaign to allow voters to decide if medical marijuana should be legal in North Dakota. Ray Morgan said he has formed a 25-member committee that will submit an initiative to the secretary of state for approval so they can collect petition signatures. Morgan hopes the initiative will appear on the November 2016 ballot. North Dakota's Republican-led House rejected a bipartisan measure this year to legalize medical marijuana, citing concerns about public safety and the burden on law enforcement.
North Dakota allows residents to put proposed state laws and constitutional amendments directly to a vote if the initiative's backers can gather enough support. The National Conference of State Legislatures said 23 states have laws allowing medical marijuana. But it is still illegal at the federal level and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration hasn't approved it. Morgan told KFGO radio (bit.ly/1WEFOAW ) that it gives him hope that medical marijuana is legal in other states. >> marijuana.heraldtribune.com/tag/north-dakota-marijuana/.

North Dakota Considering Comprehensive Medical Marijuana Bill - January 29, 2015 | BISMARCK, ND — A bi-partisan group of lawmakers in the North Dakota House has introduced compassionate legislation that would establish a comprehensive, workable medical marijuana program in North Dakota. Filed last week by Representatives Pamela Anderson (D), Eliot Glassheim (D), Kathy Hawken (R), Andrew Maragos (R), Marvin Nelson (D), Jasper Schneider (D), and Marie Strinden (D), House Bill 1430 would allow seriously ill patients to possess and cultivate a limited amount of marijuana. It would also create a system of registered medical marijuana providers to ensure patients have safe and reliable access. Under the proposed legislation, qualifying patients would be allowed to possess up to two and a half ounces of marijuana and cultivate up to six cannabis plants. Qualifying conditions for medical marijuana in North Dakota would include cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis C, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, Alzheimer's disease, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), multiple sclerosis, cachexia or wasting syndrome, severe debilitating pain, severe nausea, seizures, or severe and persistent muscle spasms.
The medical marijuana program would be administered by the state's department of health, who would have the authority to add additional qualifying conditions to the medical marijuana program. The bill also includes provisions preventing discrimination against medical marijuana cardholders, and prohibits local communities from banning medical marijuana businesses. The bill has been assigned to the Joint Health and Human Services Committee, and is scheduled for a committee hearing on February 4, 2015. The full text of the bill can be found here. Twenty-three states and Washington, D.C. have enacted compassionate laws that protect individuals suffering from HIV/AIDS, cancer, ALS, and other serious medical conditions from arrest and prosecution for using marijuana medicinally under their doctors' recommendations. >> www.thedailychronic.net/2015/40262/north-dakota-considering-comprehensive-medical-marijuana-bill/.

Tribes must still follow the eight guidelines or "areas of concern" offered by the federal government after Colorado and Washington voters chose to legalize marijuana in the 2012 elections. The federal guidelines will also apply in Oregon and Alaska, where voters chose to join the ranks of legal states in 2014. While it is still unknown just how many reservations will take advantage of the new policy, it seems likely that many will, judging by the proliferation of tribal casinos. Many tribes, however, remain opposed to legalizing marijuana on their lands, and federal officials will continue to enforce the law in those areas, if requested. >> hemp.org/news/category/cannabis/north-dakota.

Florida might smoke a 6% THC bud from a short bushy marijuana plant? Somehow, North Dakota hemp ... ST. PAUL – A U.S. Appeals Court panel is considering whether North Dakota law trumps federal law when it comes to raising hemp. Two North Dakota farmers want to grow hemp, a close relative to illegal marijuana, but the federal Drug Enforcement Administration has not granted them permission. The farmers sued to get the permit, but a federal district court threw out their suit. The DEA says federal law takes precedent over state law, and it does not allow for hemp production because of its close relationship to marijuana. North Dakota Rep. David Monson, an Osnabrock Republican, and Wayne Hauge of Ray applied to grow hemp under a North Dakota law, which at the time required a federal permit. The state law has changed, so a federal permit no longer is required, but the farmers say they still want that permit so they do not face federal legal problems.

Fratelli Pizza becomes a Flagstaff, Arizona, staple
[SlideDeck2 id=29639]
Brothers Brent and Pete Schepper set out to open a college late-night carryout and delivery pizza place. More than 11 years later, Fratelli Pizza has become a community-driven pizzeria that generates nearly $2.2 million in sales.
Key to that success: "We're not afraid to change," Brent says. "We thought we'd be the college late-night delivery pizza place. The locals made us the family place. We thought we'd be delivery and carryout and we are primarily dine-in and carryout. We're not afraid to change our plan if we see what works."
Owners Pete and Brent Schepper
The Schepper brothers opened Fratelli as a 450-square foot pizzeria with seating for four near the University of Northern Arizona in downtown Flagstaff in 2002. After managing chain and independent pizzerias, Pete says, "I got tired of making other people money. Who better to go into business with than your brother?"
By year two, they opened a second Fratelli Pizza in an old Pizza Hut in Flagstaff's east side. And in 2006, the Schepper brothers closed the original Fratelli location to open another larger, dine-in unit on Phoenix Avenue in downtown Flagstaff.
In the early days, Brent says, "We did grassroots marketing. We went to all the businesses and offices and gave samples away — gave them free slice cards." Their efforts paid off during Fratelli's first summer when the pizzeria was voted "Best of Flagstaff" by the Arizona Daily Sun, a title it's held for 11 consecutive years. "That really helped us take off," he adds.
The pizza, Pete says, is Fratelli's own style. Based on an East Coast style, its pizzas are hand tossed and cooked in deck ovens.
Giant slices are king during lunch and only sold until 4 p.m. Slices make up 50 percent of lunch sales. "Our lunch slice specials are our biggest thing," Brent says of its "two slices and a soda for $7" offer. Slice toppings vary and rotate weekly onto a specials menu.
Brent says Pete's the recipe guy. Pete credits the kitchen crew for coming up with some creative pies. Fratelli's regular menu consists of 15 traditional, specialty and pan pizzas. Two of the local or crew favorites are the Pesto Cashew and the Route 66. The Pesto Cashew has a basil pesto base and is topped with mozzarella, grilled chicken, roasted cashews, red onion, mushroom and bleu cheese crumbles.
The Route 66, Pete says, pays homage to its namesake, the famed highway, with its Kansas City bbq sauce, bacon from the Midwest and green chilies from Hatch, New Mexico. Those ingredients are paired with mozzarella and cheddar cheese, roasted red pepper, grilled chicken and red onion for a Fratelli best seller.
An obvious favorite is the traditional pepperoni pizza. Pete says what makes Fratelli's unique is that it uses an uncured pepperoni, which offers a robust flavor and pleases its health-conscious customers.
Hoosier natives, Peter moved to Flagstaff in 1994 and Brent soon followed to pursue the business together. Both have become fixtures in the Flagstaff community. That commitment to outreach has extended to Fratelli Pizza. Brent says, the pizzeria was one of the first in Flagstaff to hold fundraising nights.
Fratelli's has devoted "10-percent Tuesdays" to local charities, schools and nonprofits for nearly 6 years. "We're a very tightknit community," Brent says. " It's showing we care — that we are actively involved in this business."
Flagstaff residents have taken notice. After a 10-percent Tuesday event, "the other days (sales) are up because I'm getting a half dozen new customers every time I do one of those events," Brent says.
Brent considers 10-percent Tuesday a marketing line item. More than $20,000 of its $30,000-marketing spending goes to those organizational fundraisers. He adds that the only traditional advertising the pizzeria participates in is sponsoring public radio.
The pizzeria also holds four to five blood drives per year and free field trips for kids. "A lot of kids have never seen a commercial kitchen," Brent says, adding that the trips include a tour, dough tossing and pizza-making demonstrations and dough ball samples for the kids to play with.
After sponsoring several community events, the Scheppers invested in a mobile unit, opting to go with a trailer. "The reason we went with the trailer was to be able to leave it, get more supplies and come back," Brent says.
With a four-deck oven, Fratelli is able to do high-volume events. The trailer is used for large-scale events versus setting up for street vending. "It's a four-hour setup time and two-hour breakdown time," Brent says. "We want to do the big events and stay away from smaller events." Fratelli catered three weddings using the trailer last fall. It's something that Brent hopes continues.
When it came time to completely renovate its Phoenix Avenue location in 2012, the brothers contemplated using the trailer during construction. Instead, they opted against it and closed for six weeks to remodel the store. Brent says using the trailer might have set the construction schedule back.
In a cunning maneuver, the Scheppers caught the entire construction process on a time-lapse camera and produced a video to show Fratelli's loyal customers the step-by-step remodel.
Taking over an additional 1,000 square feet in the building, the $150,000 renovation expanded the kitchen and dining room, walk-in cooler and freezer capacity and new restrooms. "Our biggest thing with the remodel was increasing our walk-in capacity and our oven capacity," Brent says. "We increased our oven capacity by 50 percent."
The dining room expansion now seats 77, up from 45 before the remodel. The reconfiguration of four-top tables has allowed for optimal seating.
Brent offers one last piece of advice for pizzeria operators: "Pick a number and triple it. I picked a number and doubled it and it wasn't enough. I could easily spend another $50,000 to finish our office upstairs."

4 Things 'Far Cry 6' Gets Right
10/06/2021 10/31/2021 - by Kate Sánchez
Let's open this by saying I expected the worst from Far Cry 6. With marketing that aimed to showcase every single of stereotype without the context to make the satire land, I truly expected the game to make me angry. And while it isn't perfect, it is a game that got certain elements right—at least for me. Authenticity conversations are rife with cultural landmines. For starters, Latin American and US-born Latinx cultures aren't the same, and each nationality has its own culture has its own shared experiences but are ultimately unique from each other.
That said, there are some noticeable things that miss the mark, like Giancarlo Esposito playing the most generic dictator imaginable and having a horrible accent that has somehow deteriorated since his time as Gus Fring. Or the fact that there aren't more dark-skinned Afro-Yaran characters throughout the game, especially when it comes to women given the game's Cuban influence. However, the missteps are outweighed by the things that Far Cry 6 got right. And to be honest, there are also moments that stand out that speak to elements of culture that feel like representation done right.
So, without further ado, let's jump into some of the things that Far Cry 6 got right when it comes to showcasing elements of latinidad in its narrative and inspiration.
Language that Goes Beyond Well-Known Spanglish
Getting Spanish as a language "right" is hard, because the same way you wouldn't necessarily hear a Southern twang from someone who lived in Boston their entire life, the dialects of Spanish used per country is heavily influenced by location and the cultures that existed before colonization. Because of this, Spanish spoken in the islands is different than Mexico and Mexico is different than South American countries and even different between Northern cities and those in the Yucatan. This nuance is something that was noticeable to me as someone who grew up hearing a very specific Tex-Mex Spanglish growing up. The use of words like coño and even Jonron's name hit elements of the Cuban-inspired culture of Yara. That said, two of the standouts when it comes to language are the choice of when to use Spanish and when to translate.
When it comes to speaking Spanish and English, whether you're fluent or not, there are certain words and sentiments that just hold more weight than saying it in English. For me, yelling cabrona at my dog when she misbehaves hits differently than calling her the English equivalent. And while there are a few too many coños thrown into the mix, the choice of when to use Spanish for meaning and impact works nearly perfectly every time. This is because of what I mentioned before but also because the development team made the choice in the subtitles to only translate the Spanish elements once per sequence, pushing the player to learn the meaning in every other instance.
It may seem simple, but in a country where Spanish is the second most spoken language, it's an element that puts Spanish speakers first and asks the player to come along for the ride, similar to the captioning choices made in series like Seis Manos. Finally, there are jokes in the game (a part of its key satire that the series is known for) that only work in Spanish or will be enjoyed the most by those with cultural touchstones to the reference. Jonrón's character design and the name are one of these moments.
The Women of Yara
This isn't as simple as showcasing female characters in Far Cry 6's narrative. That's an easy thing now (or it should be). For a story about a Latin American revolution, it's a little deeper than that. When it comes to upsetting the status quo and fighting against dictators or colonizers, the women in Latin America have been behind many movements.
From my own culture, Las Adelitas (or Las Soldaderas) in Mexico have been a rallying cry of strong women on horseback strapped with shotgun shells that took on the powers that be. Immortalized in Ballet Folklorico's (Mexican folk dance) "La Revolución" and Tejano music through imagery and corridos, these women stand as a testament of strength during the Mexican Revolutionary War. While the women were expected to follow the men in their lives into battle but only run errands, clean clothes, and other elements including sex work. But that wasn't the end of their involvement. Many of the women turned to pick up arms alongside the men and in some cases, led entire infantries of men and women corps into battle. While their images have been sexualized and mythologized now that the war is over, their standing impact on Mexico's Revolution is indisputable.
That said, it's the Maribal Sisters from the Dominican Republic that stand as the most analogous to characters like Clara and Jonrón in Far Cry 6. If you're unfamiliar, the sisters are Patria, Minerva, and María Teresa Mirabal and they played a vital part in toppling the brutal dictator, Rafael Trujillo—who has served as the basis for many representations of dictators in media. The Mirabal sisters were active members of the growing underground resistance against Trujillo's regime who helped form the 14th of June Movement, named for the date of a failed insurrection against Trujillo led by a group of exiled Dominicans with the support of the Cuban government. However, shortly after the movement was officially organized, Trujillo began mass arrests of resistance figures, including the sisters and their husbands, though he later freed female prisoners as a supposed gesture of his leniency. Trujillo later had the women killed, with his henchmen making it look like a car accident and framing it as such in the state-owned media. But because of their prominent role in the revolution, "The Butterflies" instantly became martyrs to the revolutionary cause, which helped solidify resistance to Trujillo both among Dominicans and outside the island.
While it's easy to say, "Yay! Women in games!" it's important to recognize that the women of Yara don't exist as just as hollow representations. Instead, they reflect the reality of the roles women played across Latin American in overthrowing governments and fighting for their communities in many different capacities.
Bringing Yara to Life through Diverse Musical Genres
A game is only as immersive as its sounds, its score, and its soundtrack. This is no truer than for Far Cry 6. As Eduardo Vaisman, the game's Audio Director explained in the video above, the game features a duality captured in the music. On one end there are somber folk songs and military marches and on the other, there is rap and other Afro-Caribbean music, as well as the diverse genres of Latin Caribbean music that capture the vibrancy of culture in the region. While you work your way through the game, it's clear that each element of the game is brought together by Latin American musicians that imbue the game with beautiful and immersive sounds. This is captured none more so than the inclusion of Afro-Venezuelan artist, singer, and rapper Gabylonia who's Spanish rapping helped bring Talia to life in addition to her voice actress Mercedes Morris, who also provided the motion capture work. Talia is one of the game's revolutionaries who serves as Clara and ultimately Libertad's call to action. The frontwoman of Maximas Matanzas meeting her in-game we see the beauty of the music and the strength of using rap to directly confront the regime.
While the game's largest fault was the Navid Khavar, the game's narrative director, saying the game isn't political, diving into the music of the game and its place in the narrative, you can't call this game anything but. This is even more true with Vaisman and Composer Ariel Contreras-Esquivel explaining their own experiences with military dictatorships in the featurette above. But even without their words to back it up, every song, every march, every element of the music in Far Cry 6 is clearly political and vibrantly inspired by the resistance music of the people still living in countries that Yara takes inspiration from and ultimately the imposing and terrifying chords a military march can strike.
The American Dream Isn't For Everyone
One of the key elements of Dani's character is their push to leaving Yara. Before joining Libertad, Dani is trying to escape Yara for Miami in hopes of fleeing the dictatorship and everything that comes with it. It's a fix for them, but it's a choice that is continually investigated by characters throughout the game. In multiple scenarios, characters make reference to the "American Dream" and explain that it doesn't come in Dani's color. To make matters more nuanced, Dani learns first-hand that the revolution isn't something to happen and end in one generation. Instead, it's an intergenerational rebuilding of a people and one that you can't put in your rearview even if you choose to escape to Miami.
Is Far Cry 6 perfect? No. But it is a game that goes beyond its predecessors in showcasing elements of Latin America. Representation of Latin American cultures, US-born and otherwise are few and far between when it comes to video games. In this landscape, even with its fumbles, Far Cry 6 stands up to criticism with moments that evoke cultural memories and nuances in a way I didn't expect. Sure, Esposito's Castillo could have done more to not be a generic island bad guy, but the cast of revolutionaries more than carry the game's narrative with beauty and strength that is well worth playing through.
Far Cry 6 is available October 7, 2021 on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Stadia.

On the banks of the River Severn, Wildfowl & Wetland Trust at Slimbridge is the best birding site near here. In winter the flocks of wildfowl and waders are huge, but on a beautiful summers day it's pretty good too - lot's of chicks from breeding avocets, lapwings and shelduck, cranes from re-introduction in Somerset Levels out on the meadows and plenty of butterflies too. Amongst all this you can see the first signs of autumn as returning waders such as ruff, greenshank & green sandpiper start heading South from their breeding grounds in Scandinavia.


As people around the country gear up for the approaching holiday season, retailers and distribution centers are already feeling the accompanying rush. From now until Christmas, we're seeing a rapid increase in the need for industrial shredding and waste removal.
Each day, distribution centers and retailers are receiving major shipments of consumable goods. During the fall and winter seasons, these shipments are amplified to ensure shelves are constantly stocked with must-have gift items.
Every empty shipping box and container left strewn about the warehouse or stockroom floor takes space away from active inventory. If distribution centers can't effectively clear Old Corrugated Cardboard (OCC) waste, they won't have room for the new products coming in. This means that from now until Christmas, it's crunch time  and not just from a selling perspective.
Now is the time to re-evaluate your scrap and waste handling systems and make the necessary upgrades and repairs. Each day over the next two months represents a peak in inventory stocking, so if you fall behind today, you won't have time to catch up tomorrow.
OCC must be shredded, compacted into space-saving bales, removed from the floor, and then recycled. Any breakdown in this process will easily result in a back-up of materials, which will translate into down-time and lost sales that can quickly compound.
For more information about industrial shredding and waste handling, feel free to tweet @BloApCo with your questions and issues.

KRAWIEC RACES HARLEY V-ROD TO U.S. NATIONALS WIN AT INDY
Courtesy of Harley-Davidson
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Sept. 2, 2014) – Harley-Davidson® Screamin' Eagle®/Vance & Hines rider Ed Krawiec stormed through the Pro Stock Motorcycle field at the Chevrolet Performance NHRA U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Raceway Monday to earn his first career win at the prestigious drag racing event. It was the third win of the season and second in a row for Krawiec in the NHRA Mellow Yello Drag Racing Series.
"It's so awesome to get a win here at Indy," said Krawiec, a three-time Pro Stock Motorcycle champion. "There's so much tradition at this race, a win here is sort of on a different level. My professional goals have always been to get a win at my home track in Englishtown, to win the championship, and to get a win at Indy. Now I've done all three. It would be great to cap this season with another championship for Harley-Davidson."
Krawiec moves on to the six-race Countdown to the Championship playoffs with the second seed in the Pro Stock Motorcycle class. Harley-Davidson® Screamin' Eagle®/Vance & Hines rider Andrew Hines locked up the number-one seed for the Countdown with a win in the first round of eliminations on Monday.
"That number one seed is a nice place to be," said Hines. "I don't think I've been there since 2010, and I'll sure take the 20 bonus points that go with it."
Krawiec set the tone for his Labor Day weekend by earning the top qualifying position with a 6.829-second run aboard his Harley-Davidson® V-Rod® motorcycle in round four on Sunday. Hines qualified the team's other V-Rod ninth with an Elapsed Time (E.T.) of 6.926 seconds.
In Monday's elimination rounds, Hines defeated Nitrofish Suzuki rider LE Tonglet in the first round before losing to Krawiec in round two.
"Meeting Ed in the second round is a consequence of qualifying in the lower half of the field," said Hines. "We never got my bike running as well as Ed's this weekend, and we had some tire issues. But we got in some extra runs and good data we can take into the Countdown."
Krawiec scored solid wins over PiranaZ Racing Buell rider Shawn Gann, Hines, and Lucas Oil Buell rider Hector Arana Jr. to advance to his fifth final-round appearance of the season. In a reprise of the September 27 final at Sonoma Raceway, Krawiec faced number-two qualifier Jerry Savoie on his Savoie Alligator Farm Suzuki. For the second race in a row, Krawiec was the winner with an ET of 6.941 seconds to the 6.987-second run of Savoie. Krawiec now has 25 career final-round wins.
"I had such a good V-Rod motorcycle to race all weekend," said Krawiec. "We changed my entire set-up on Saturday and gave away my lead in qualifying, but I knew I had the motorcycle to take it right back. The Screamin' Eagle team is going to carry some real momentum into the Countdown."
Series points for the top-ten riders now re-set for the six-race Countdown, with 10 points separating each rider and Hines getting 20 bonus points for earning the top seed.
The Countdown to the Championship gets underway on Sept. 12-14 at the 7th annual NHRA Carolina Nationals at zMAX Dragway in Concord, N.C.

Texas requires only one type of car insurance to legally drive: Liability insurance. But there are other important coverage types to consider. Let's look at the options in Texas so you can make the right insurance choices.
Liability insurance covers the damage and injuries you cause others, up to the limits you choose. If you don't have enough liability insurance you could be sued for the rest you're responsible for. Typically the state-required minimums are not enough, especially if you cause a large accident.
This is often written as 30/60/25.
If you buy UM in Texas, the minimum coverage is $30,000 per person/$60,000 per accident for injuries.
If you buy UIM, the coverage limits must match your liability limits for bodily injury. For example, if you have liability coverage of 100/300, your UIM limits must be 100/300.
In Texas you can also buy a form of UM called uninsured motorist property damage (UMPD) coverage. This is like UM but it covers property damage, like a car dent, if an uninsured driver hits you.
If you buy UMPD, the minimum coverage is $25,000. And if you make a claim for UMPD, there will be a $250 deductible, which is the amount taken out of an insurance check.
Texas allows the "stacking" of UM policies. This allows you to potentially make claims under two UM policies. See more about stacking auto insurance.
Personal injury protection (PIP): Texas car insurance companies must offer you PIP but you don't have to take it. PIP insurance pays for injuries to you and your passengers in an accident, no matter who was at fault. PIP also covers lost wages if you can't work after a car accident.
Medical payments (MedPay) coverage: In Texas you can also buy MedPay coverage but it's not required. It pays for medical bills and funeral expenses for anyone injured while driving or riding in your car. It pays no matter who caused the accident. It also covers you if you're a riding a bike or walking and are hit by a car. MedPay coverage is similar to PIP.
Comprehensive coverage: The state doesn't require comprehensive coverage but if you have a car loan or lease the lender or leasing company probably requires it. This covers damage to your own vehicle from hitting an animal or flood, fire, vandalism, hail, falling objects and explosions. It also covers car theft.
Collision coverage: The state doesn't require collision coverage but if you have a car loan or lease the lender or leasing company probably requires it. This covers damage to your vehicle if you hit an object such as another car or a fence.
Rental reimbursement: This is optional coverage. It pays for a rental car if your vehicle is being repaired because of a car accident.
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners uses complaint data from states to make a "complaint ratio." This shows the number of complaints against a company relative to the insurer's size of business. Here are ratios for the biggest auto insurance companies in Texas.
