If your kid comes home in a red windbreaker and addresses you as 'comrade'...you might want to explore the possibility that your child was signed up for community service...
Here's a couple of links about change, on-going community service and communism.

"President-elect Obama Posts National Service Plan
Presidential leadership has been a catalyst for new national service programs throughout history, including Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Civilian Conservation Corps, John F. Kennedy and the Peace Corps, and William J. Clinton and AmeriCorps. On the website www.change.gov, President-elect Obama has declared his intention to grow AmeriCorps and the Peace Corps. His plans include new service organizations to meet specific challenges, including a Classroom Corps to help underserved schools. He has also suggested that all college students who engage in 100 hours of community service should receive a fully-refundable tax credit of $4,000 for their education."

Subject: Private Land - Written Permission Issue
As all are aware, the Department has been directed to work with interested parties to develop draft language that will establish the licensing requirements and restrictions for hunting on private lands as well as the penalties, including the seizure of unlawfully taken animals, if these requirements are not met.
Attached you will find a document that gives a brief summary of the issue, draft language developed by the Department for all to consider, and information about a “discussion forum” to be held by the State Game Commission where individuals can voice there ideas and concerns.
Please take a look at this and plan to attend the meeting or get your ideas and concerns back to us.
This information is also posted on our web-site, so if you know of other folks who would like to see it you may direct them there.
Thank you for your interest and willingness to help resolve this issue and feel free to call me @ 505-660-6187 if you have any questions prior to the meeting.

Aussie Beef Slumps 17% in Korea ~~
US Beef Surges
U.S. beef has beat out other imported and even domestic product in sales at South Korea’s three largest supermarket chains, according to local media reports.
On Sunday E-Mart, Homeplus and Lottemart reported combined sales of nearly 1,300 tons of U.S. beef since Nov. 27, when they resumed sales of U.S. beef.
In the same period, sales of Australian beef reached slightly more than 1,100 tons, down some 17 percent from the same period a year ago. Meantime, sales of homegrown hanwoo cattle product grew 5 percent to about 712 tons.
The USA has no mandatory expensive electronic Livestock identification tagging scheme (Australia does), they have been banned from exporting to South Korea since 2003 when they had their first case of Mad cow disease (Australia has never had a case) and now they are back in the market kicking our butts.
Australian beef producers pay $5 per head marketing levy to the Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA), USA producers pay $1. Australian producers must by law electronically tag and track every beast at an estimated cost of $30 per head, US producers have no such requirements as their NAIS scheme is voluntary.
Granted Australia and New Zealand have the cleanest and greenest beef in the world. Yet when it comes to selling into world commodity markets it means squat. There are only 3 considerations when buying certain grades of beef on world commodity markets,
1. Price
2. Price.
3. Price.
Australian Beef producers have a competitive disadvantage of $34 a head against US cattle producers because of the MLA levy and NLIS compliance costs.
The argument put forward by MLA and proponents of NLIS that it gives our producers a competitive market advantage in premium markets such as South Korea is clearly wrong and misleading. All they have saddled our producers with is an expensive, time consuming competitive disadvantage.
