We have this set and it is okay. The track is plastic, as is the train and it runs on 6 c-sized batteries that are housed in the coal tender. The train is not very kid (or even adult for that matter) friendly in terms of getting it on the tracks easily which is a bit odd given that it is a baconuage. The control is a handheld remote that also uses several batteries. We had an different version of a Lionel Christmas train that was more old school with the metal tracks and the transformer that we really liked. It stopped working and it was still under warrenty. We sent it in to Lionel for repair/replacement only to receive notice that the train that had stopped working had been discontinued and that we could either take a ridiculously low credit for our train toward another train or an even swap for this train. We took the even swap but wished we had just kept our original train and tried to get a train repair person to fix it.
You're not going to get a fancy kit for this price. Even when I was a kid the real sets were many, many hundreds to start. Now the cheaper plastic sets are of even worse quality given the cost-cutting times we live in. Best bet is to go to a train shop and check out their used sets. You can get a good deal on a high quality set and get great advice as well.
When an old style set stops working you're probably best off just repairing or replacing the particular part that failed.
Check the transformer to see if it's producing power, and if it is maintaining voltage all the way to the top of the locomotive to see if it has fouled contacts or a broken wire that needs soldered, or if the armature was rough then the motor might need new brushes "if" you can find replacement brushes.
Cheap transformers are more cost effective to replace (some are even cased in plastic that is welded shut around the seam so repair isn't very reasonable) while nicer ones can be worth DIY repairing, tend to have a blown fuse or a fried transistor, or dried up capacitors or flaky potentiometer if it is very old. Of course it takes a little investigation, a multimeter and soldering iron to solve these problems.

Car parts were taken off cars in the Branch Avenue Metro parking lot, according to a WUSA 9 video report. The thefts happened in broad daylight.
People with power tools crawled under cars in the parking lot on Friday and cut the catalytic converters on their exhaust systems off, according to the report.
Catalytic conveters contain precious metals like platinum and sell for $70 to $100 on the Internet, according to Scott Bloom with WUSA 9.
Victim Maurice Markos said his car and two others were attacked, according to the WUSA 9 video report. Broom said the Markos repair will cost at least $1,000.

The Orioles had the Yankees right where they wanted them, leading by a single run in the late innings. But they got greedy and scored another one, giving them a two-run cushion. This isn't Orioles baseball, everyone. They're like Icarus, flying too close to the sun on wings made of insurance runs.
But they ain't giving the run back. In the sixth inning, Matt Wieters led off with a double -- a low liner that was quick enough to get into the gap. Mark Reynolds followed with a sharp grounder through the right side that scored Wieters without a throw. With a runner on first, no outs, and a run in, the Yankees bullpen began to stir.
But Jim Thome struck out, and Manny Machado bounced a first-pitch change-up into a 1-4-3 double play to get out of the inning.
The run makes it a little harder for the Orioles to reach extra innings, too, so things aren't looking good for the guys in orange.

Keen Strategy, a 3-year-old brand and marketing consulting firm that counts more than a half-dozen Fortune 500 companies as clients, has added to its technology tools with a small but strategic acquisition.
Raleigh-based Keen's recent purchase of Marketing Investment Decision Analytics for an undisclosed sum bolsters its ability to "help companies make smarter, faster, more impactful decisions" about marketing and their brands, said Greg Dolan, one of Keen's three co-founders and managing partners.
Richmond, Va.-based MIDA is a small startup – founder John Busbice, who is joining Keen as a partner, is the company's sole employee – but it already has proved its worth.
Keen previously teamed up with MIDA on a project for Campbell Soup Co., recommending how Campbell could get more bang for its marketing bucks.
An impressed Anthony DiSilvestro, senior vice president of finance at Campbell, said in an interview that Keen has "a pretty innovative approach which I think distinguishes them from the more traditional quantitative or market research approaches."
Keen has six full-time employees, supplemented by a dozen full-time and part-time contractors, and has been keeping a low profile locally. Despite its small size it has landed A-list clients such as AT&T, ConAgra and United Healthcare and anticipates revenue will double this year.
Keen uses a technology-based approach. In addition to MIDA's software, it developed two other software tools in-house and licensed a third. The company is a hybrid between a consulting firm and a software firm – it does projects for clients but also licenses its software to those clients.
MIDA's software, Busbice said, analyzes a client's past marketing spending and factors in management's expectations of future returns on investment, incorporating factors such as the current competitive landscape, to predict the outcome of different spending scenarios.
"In marketing, a lot of people talk about the art and the science," said Alan Hart, a co-founder. "MIDA enables you to blend the two so you don't have to talk about either/or."
Last year Keen, working in conjunction with MIDA, recommended that Campbell could actually reduce its U.S. marketing budget for soups by more than $30 million, a double-digit reduction, and yet still boost sales.
"We had a lot of Wall Street analysts say, 'What? Are you crazy?'" DiSilvestro said.
But the proof is in the soup sales. U.S. sales of ready-to-serve soup rose 9 percent in the fiscal year that ended in July.
"As it turns out, we had the best year on soup in over a decade," DiSilvestro said. "We attribute part of that to this project." Other factors, including improving the soup's quality, also played a role.
Before Dolan co-founded Keen in 2010, he was global director of corporate strategy for Campbell Soup. Although that may have helped Keen get in the door at Campbell, "it wouldn't get you the job," DiSilvestro said.
Campbell also has hired Keen to work on other projects.
Keen is convinced that corporations' growing infatuation with Big Data works to its advantage.
"More data is not necessarily better if I can't make a decision," Hart said.
"It actually can complicate a decision," Dolan said. "What we talk about is the right data to make the right decision."

Locals aren't the only ones tired of the heat.
Yes, the blues whales are still frolicking in Dana Point, but don't forget about dolphins.
Check out this critter, who was a jumping, dancing fool for the camera on Saturday in Dana Point.
"We never see them act like this, it's a bottlenose dolphin like the ones at Sea World so maybe he wants a job," joked Donna Kalez, general manager at Dana Wharf Sportishing and Whale Watching.
The video was taken by Capt. Frank Brennan on a whale-watching vessel out of Dana Wharf Whale Watching, Kalez said.
According to NationalGeographic.com, these dolphins are sleek swimmers and can reach speeds of more than 18 mph. They surface to breathe two or three times a minute.

Rosenthal: Yankees acquire RHP McCarthy from D-backs
The benefit for the Yankees here seems fairly obvious. I'm a bit more quizzical about the Diamondbacks' perspective - maybe they were primarily motivated by a desire to unload McCarthy's salary, and plan to stick Nuno into the LHRP slot just vacated by Thatcher?

Thank you

I looked into the issue, and you are currently on our suppression list. This means you have requested not to receive e-mails from us at some point. This was probably accidental. Check to make sure you are allowing email@example.com as a sender.
If you are still having issues, please let us know.

I haven't received all of them either. They aren't plays that fall in/out depending on odds. I had a play on Atlanta Thursday 4/16 that never showed up. Cost me a +123 win. Not on email or list of angles

A Japanese diplomat who pleaded no contest to two counts of domestic violence in December is scheduled to be sentenced in San Mateo County Superior Court on Monday.
Yoshiaki Nagaya, 33, a vice consul for Japan stationed in San Francisco, had been accused of committing "constant acts of violence" against his ex-wife during their 18-month marriage, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
According to prosecutors, Nagaya allegedly stabbed his wife in the hand with a screwdriver, knocked her tooth out during a separate assault, and kicked her multiple times. Nagaya's wife, who is much smaller in stature than her former husband, photographed her injuries after each attack, Wagstaffe said.
In March, the victim approached police and claimed that Nagaya had pushed her out of a car in the parking garage of their San Bruno apartment complex, Wagstaffe said.
Investigators were unable to substantiate the accusation, and questions about the wife's credibility prompted the district attorney's office to drop all but two of the charges against Nagaya, which ranged from assault with a deadly weapon to spousal assault, Wagstaffe said.
Nagaya faces up to a year in county jail.

First Line of Defense® for the Enterprise
Today's enterprises are truly dependent on their online presence, whether it is for generating revenues, ensuring high employee productivity, or providing a superb customer experience. Ubiquitous Internet access also makes the online enterprise susceptible to cyber-attacks such as DDoS, from around the world. The resulting service outages cause costly downtime, lost productivity, brand damage and impact the enterprise's legitimate users. Unfortunately, traditional security solutions like firewalls and IPS devices are ineffective against advanced cyber-threats and are frequently a target of attacks themselves.

(Born December 17, 1944) -- The list of people who have served as a player and head coach for the Buffalo Bills is a short one. In fact, it begins and ends with George Kay Stephenson.
He was an all-star quarterback in Pensacola, Fla., which earned him a scholarship at the University of Florida. Stephenson's timing was off. His time there matched the tenure of Steve Spurrier, who won a Heisman Trophy for the Gators in 1966.
He still made it to the pro ranks, signing with the Chargers in 1967. There Stephenson played in three games in a relief role. Then it was on to Buffalo in 1968, when the Bills crashed to a 1-12-1 season. Stephenson started three of those games. His last playing appearance as a pro was in 1974 for Jacksonville in the World Football League, as he started in that league's first-ever game.
Stephenson moved on to coaching. After serving as the quarterback coach for the Bills in 1982, he moved up to the head coaching job when Knox left for Seattle. Buffalo had an 8-8 record in 1983, but fell to 2-14 in 1984. When the Bills lost their first four games in 1985, Stephenson was dismissed in favor of Hank Bullough.
After a gap of a few years, he landed a couple of other head coaching positions in the World League of American Football and the Canadian Football League.

Cook: Burnett's August swoon disappointingAugust 28, 2012 3:45 AM
Share with others:
For the fourth consecutive time in a big August game, Pirates starter A.J. Burnett came up small Monday night and the club lost another game it badly needed, 4-3, to the St. Louis Cardinals at PNC Park. This is a serious Cy Young Award candidate? Please. Spare me that argument.
That doesn't diminish what Burnett did for the Pirates in the first four months of the long, grueling baseball season. He was awesome. He and center fielder Andrew McCutchen are the two biggest reasons the team still clings to life in the playoff chase, although its pulse is weakening quickly after its 13th loss in 18 games. It trails the Cardinals by three games for the final wild-card slot with 34 games left, including two more against the Cardinals the next two nights. Burnett and McCutchen are the biggest reasons the team still should finish with a winning record for the first time in 20 years despite their badly ill-timed individual collapses. (McCutchen did hit the ball hard four times Monday night and had two singles and a RBI). It has to be able to go at least 14-20 in those final 34 games, right?
But Burnett's performance in August has been beyond disappointing. His earned run average in his three starts before Monday night was 7.23. He lost at home to the San Diego Padres Aug. 11, giving up four earned runs in 52/3 innings. He was lucky to get a win at home against the Los Angeles Dodgers Aug. 16 after allowing six earned runs in 62/3 innings. He was extremely fortunate to get a no-decision at San Diego Aug. 21 despite giving up four runs, 12 hits and five walks in 61/3 innings. That was the game teammate Garrett Jones hit a tying, two-out, two-run home run in the ninth inning.
But Burnett remains the best starter the Pirates have. They needed a big game from him Monday night to stop the hemorrhaging. They especially needed it because the Cardinals started Kyle Lohse, who came in with a 13-2 record, a 2.61 ERA and wins in seven consecutive decisions. You want to know what a Cy Young contender looks like? Lohse had allowed two or fewer earned runs in 11 of his previous 12 starts, helping to give the Cardinals a chance to defend their world championship from last season.
But Burnett couldn't get it done despite coming "out of the box much better than in his previous three starts" -- manager Clint Hurdle's words -- in the first four innings. What makes the loss so hard to take is the Pirates gave Burnett a 2-0 lead in the fourth. He didn't just give those two runs back in the fifth inning with some serious command issues. He gave up two more runs in the sixth before calling it a frustrating night.
Burnett fell behind Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina, 3-1, to start the fifth before Molina singled to right. He fell behind Skip Schumaker, 3-2, before Schumaker doubled to left-center to score Molina. He then gave up a run-scoring single up the middle to Lohse, who had just four singles and one RBI in his first 50 at-bats this season. The inning would have been worse if Pirates second baseman Josh Harrison hadn't made a marvelous relay throw home -- perhaps the best of the season -- to get Lohse, who was trying to score on Matt Carpenter's double to right-center.
"It does hurt," Hurdle said when asked about giving up runs to the opposition right after the Pirates score. "One of [Burnett's] obvious strengths -- and it has been most of the year -- is shut-down innings. He's been as good as anyone in the league. He just had a couple of pitches get away from him. And then they had that chopper up the middle [by Lohse] ... "
Burnett gave up two more runs in the sixth. He fell behind Matt Holliday, 3-0, before Holliday hit a home run to right field. He also allowed a sacrifice fly to Molina that scored an unearned run that was set up by a throwing error by shortstop Clint Barmes. Burnett left when the game was delayed by rain for 34 minutes after Molina's at-bat.
The lousy weather made for a dreary atmosphere at the ballpark. The game should have had a playoff-like feel to it, but it didn't come close to it. Attendance was announced as 16,700, but there didn't seem to be more than 10,000 in the stands. There were a lot fewer after the rain delay.
The Pirates will try again tonight against the Cardinals to keep their once-marvelous season from slipping away. You think Burnett was due for a big start? James McDonald, who will get the ball, is 2-3 with a 7.29 ERA in eight starts since the All-Star break. Wandy Rodriguez will get the start Wednesday night. He's 0-4 with a 5.17 ERA in five starts since joining the club at the trade deadline.
Two things seem clear if the Pirates are going to have any chance -- any realistic chance -- of making the postseason:
They need to win both games against the Cardinals.roncook

Following back-to-back embarrassing losses in which their defense has given up a total of 67 points, the Giants are looking to rebound this Sunday vs. the 3-0 Bears. If the Giants are to pull the upset, they may have to do it without one of their top defenders.
SLB Keith Bulluck may miss the game due to turf toe. He sat out practice on Wednesday and Thursday, though was optimistic he'd be ready for the Sunday night contest.
"I have two-and-a-half more days to heal up, so I think I should be out there," Bulluck told the Star-Ledger.
"I like my chances. I'm a pretty fast healer. In the past, I've had certain injuries that should linger longer and I've been able to overcome them faster than the average position, so let's hope that's still in my favor."
The way we see it
Losing Bulluck wouldn't help the Giant "D" that has struggled this season vs. the run, ranking 26th in the league in that category. The Bears have a pass-first offense, but New York would still prefer to have their veteran 'backer on the field as opposed to the sideline. Second-year pro Clint Sintim is Bulluck's backup.

Plato Elementary School will be closed Thursday and Friday because of the flu. Duncan Public School District Superintendent Sherry Labyer made the decision today after visiting the school this morning. Her decision was based on the increasing number of children leaving school because they are sick. Four checked out of school this morning.
Labyer contacted The Banner at 1 p.m. and said by the end of the school day, all parents of Plato students will be contacted either by phone or email.
The school support and certified staff will still be required to attend Thursday and Friday as the school goes into a disinfectant operation mode.
"This has never before happened during my tenure. We did not take this decision lightly, but safety of the students is our first priority," Labyer said. "The parents are calling in with the type of flu their children have. They have type A and type B. This is respiratory, too. What we have to do is try to eradicate what is going on."
The Banner first reported on the issue in today's printed edition. After speaking with Labyer around 1:15 p.m. Tuesday, 10 more children had left school because of the flu.
"We really started on the decline yesterday. We were at 78 percent and by the time school was out, 10 more went home. It got really critical."
The school has 316 students enrolled, but that number was down by 78 students, with a good majority of them in the kindergarten classes.
Only one teacher and one support staff member have been out sick though.
Labyer said she based her decision today on what she saw and how many students were leaving by noon.
"If any more went home, I was going to make that decision," she said.
She said that the health department was contacted and also a state epidemiologist. Based on school guidelines created by Labyer and school RN Chris Watkins in 2009 after an H1N1 outbreak, Plato is considered a Level 4, which is determined by 10 percent or more of the student body in a particular campus being out for illness.
"We are at 25 percent out," Labyer said today.
The Banner will provide a complete story in Thursday's printed edition.

She's not gonna make it. We give her 24 hours.
Apryl Brown remembers lying on the hospital bed as the doctor uttered those words. A sense of relief came over her.
"I didn't think about losing my children. I didn't think about leaving my mother," she said. She thought instead of how death would feel. "Although I will be dead, I will not be in pain anymore."
That searing pain came from an unimaginable source: a silicone filler, like the one Brown assumed plastic surgeons use daily. Hers was injected into her buttocks, with the hope of improving her appearance.
Brown never predicted the injections would land her here -- dying in a hospital bed in June 2010.
Her body was shutting down from a staph infection that doctors said was connected to the silicone injections. Her limbs were curling and turning black, the visible signs of necrosis. Brown recalled seeing her hands in the hospital, thinking, "Oh, my God. I am going to lose my hands. I looked at my feet ,and they were dead, too."
Doctors had no choice. To save Brown's life, they amputated her hands, feet and the flesh around her buttocks and hips in 27 surgeries. Somehow, she survived.
Brown is still embarrassed as she talks about the vanity that nearly cost her everything.
Living a good life, except for a flat 'flaw'
At the time, she was a successful hair stylist and owned a salon. When she wasn't at her shop, she was busy raising two daughters. Life was good. But Brown always wanted to fix what she saw as her "flaw."
Ever since she was a little girl growing up in Florida, Brown remembers being teased about having a flat butt. Growing up, she always wanted a fuller posterior and even had a mantra, "When I get me some money, I am going to get me some butt."
In 2004, while she was working on a new client's hair, she got her chance. The client happened to mention she did silicone injections cheaply. With a few sessions, she told Brown, she could obtain the shape she had always wanted. Brown was sold. A week later, she found herself in a house lying down in a bedroom receiving her first of four injections into her butt cheeks.
Following her second treatment, Brown remembers doubting her decision. "A voice just came to me like, 'What are you doing? Are you serious? You are going to allow somebody to inject something into your body and you have no idea what it is.'" Brown decided that day to stop doing the treatments and never went back.
The true cost of the injections would come later, following years of pain and visits with doctors.
Brown's story may be severe, but she is part of what the American Society of Plastic Surgeons calls a growing problem: patients bypassing doctors just to save some money on basic medical procedures.
"I think that's awfully seductive to a person who doesn't know there's a problem," said Dr. Richard Glogau, a clinical professor of dermatology at the University of California, San Francisco. He says he is seeing a disturbing trend, as patients turn to plastic surgeons such as him after getting botched facial filler injections.
The injections are used to smooth out facial lines. Some of the patients Glogau sees have traveled out of country and had these cosmetic procedures done cheaply. Others are purchasing cosmetic fillers from websites and self-injecting these dermal fillers into their faces. Often, the patients have no idea what's in the dermal filler, nor do they receive the procedure from a licensed medical professional.
"People assume it's just as easy as getting your hair colored, and at the end of the day it's a medical procedure," Glogau said.
Would-be patients need to know the facts
In the United States, there are only 21 FDA approved dermal fillers. These must be administered by a medical provider or under the supervision of a physician.
None of the FDA-approved dermal filler devices is approved for self-injection. There are hundreds of nonapproved dermal fillers available around the world. But Glogau cautions against having the procedure done out of country or trying to do it yourself. "I wouldn't do it. I think you belong in a doctor's office where a physician is supervising this and you can depend on where they have sourced the material."
As far as buying it online, Glogau says it's easy for patients to take the leap.
"If we live in a world where you buy your Manolo Blahniks shoes at Neiman Marcus or you can buy them online at Zappos and it's the same shoe, I think you're expecting what you see on a website as full value and true."
One of his recent patients came to him after purchasing a non-FDA-approved dermal filler marketed on the Internet with just a credit card and a stroke of the keys. In a few days, the cosmetic filler she purchased from the website PMMA.com arrived postmarked from Brazil. She had her friend, who was a registered nurse, inject her face with the dermal filler.
A week later, her cheeks started to react. Glogau says it appeared that there were "red, angry nodules in the cheeks." He had to surgically drain the area, which had "lakes of pus under the skin," and excise the material from her cheeks.

Get ready for the season of drunken moose. As ripe fruit falls from the trees and ferments on the ground, it is time for some of Sweden's most majestic wild animals to act in a most un-regal manner. One home owner east of Stockholm, the capital, has already been confronted by a mob of boozed-up moose. The five animals, feasting on rotten windfalls, "were threatening" and refused to let him into his garden. "Sensibly enough the (moose) left the scene when police arrived," writes Albin Näverberg on Stockholm police's website. To prevent further moose booze-binges the home owner, who lives in Värmdö, east of Stockholm, was advised to remove the apples from his yard. "The (moose) will have to get drunk somewhere else," writes Näverberg.

A DeWitt woman charged with forgery and third-degree theft has received deferred judgments.
Amanda Chance, 20, was sentenced last week for charges that occurred in August. Judge Mary Howes agreed to give Chance a deferred judgment on both charges and two years probation.
"If you mess up, they're going to call you back in court," Howes told Chance.
According to the affidavit, Chance took a check from her employer's checkbook on Aug. 14, without his knowledge or permission. She deposited it, written for $12,000, into her account at the DeWitt Bank & Trust ATM and used the money to purchase items, according to court documents. Chance admitted to stealing the check, along with another one, which was deposited at an ATM in Davenport, according to court documents. Her defense attorney, Mark Lawson, told the court that she still faces a charge for that deposit in Scott County Court. Howes said if she saw that case, Chance would receive a deferred judgment on that charge too.
Chance told the court that she is sorry for what she has done and would like to get her life back. Lawson pointed out that she has only had four speeding tickets on her record.
Howes thought a deferred judgment would be the best option so that Chance would not have a felony on her record. She added that a felony makes it difficult for a person to find employment. Howes told Chance that based on her age, it does not do the community any good to essentially sentence her to a life of unemployment.
Chance was ordered to pay restitution of $12,000 to the DeWitt bank. The civil penalties on both charges were suspended.

HARRISBURG, Ill. (AP) - State officials are revising the death toll from a severe storm in southern Illinois, saying six people have been confirmed dead.
The Illinois Emergency Management Agency earlier reported that 10 were dead, but an agency spokeswoman says that was incorrect.
Lt. Tracy Felty of the Saline County Sherriff's Office also confirms the correct death toll is six. He says all of the victims were from the small town of Harrisburg, one of the areas hardest hit by the early morning storm.

---- — Situated on a lovely private wooded lot, this Danvers cottage-style, 2,481 square-foot home offers the enchantment of a natural setting that's just minutes away from some of the best schools and shopping on the North Shore. Its setting on a quiet cul-de-sac adds additional privacy and serenity to an already idyllic location.
This is a residence full of charm and all of the classic touches that give true character to a home. The first-floor space features a large eat-in kitchen enhanced by custom cabinetry. The early 20th-century woodwork is as pristine as the rest of this appealing home. Sunlight streams through the leaded glass windows and dances on the beautiful Gum Wood paneling on the first floor. The fine wood paneling adds warmth and luxury to the living and dining rooms. The sunny living room — with its fireplace, beamed ceiling, and gleaming hardwood floors — is as perfectly suited to intimate family gatherings as it is to more expansive entertaining. The sunroom is a flexible space that could easily be used as a fourth bedroom or a home office. A bedroom and first-floor bath complete the main level of the residence.
"It's a period house that was custom built in 1928 and has been in the same family for nearly the last half century," said listing agent David Ashton of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage of Salem. "The house has a very English cottage sensibility to it. What's so special is that it's a very private location, but still really close to the shopping malls, the schools, and Route 128 for commuters."
Upstairs is the master bedroom with a room-cooling ceiling fan, an additional bedroom and the second full bath. The basement houses the laundry and a half bath. The fully-applianced home comes with the range, refrigerator, and dishwasher, as well as a washer and dryer. Flooring is a combination of tiling and hardwood. In addition to the detached two-car garage, there is a paved driveway with parking for six vehicles.
"The grounds are beautiful and very unique," adds Ashton. "There is over an acre of land and well-established perennial gardens that include magnificent rhododendrons and hydrangeas. Some of the evergreen trees on the property are between 70 and 80 years old."
Just 17 miles north of Boston, Danvers is a favorite North Shore destination for its annual Strawberry Festival, holiday tree-lighting ceremony, as well as the arrival of Santa by boat at Pope's Landing.
Visit this special property, located at 1 Pine St., Danvers, during an Open House from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 4. This property is offered at $466,700. Listing agent is David Ashton, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, email@example.com, 617-216-4146.

Among the measures proposed on Thursday to close a $21 million budget gap for 2012 were three that would transfer the expenses to the towns. Clarkstown Town Supervisor Alex Gromack and Orangetown Supervisor Andy Stewart said this was the wrong approach for the Rockland County executive to take.
"His plan is I'll just shift costs to anyone I can try," said Gromack, adding that the theory that the cost of county government can be moved to towns and villages is absurd. "It is the whole purpose of county government to coordinate and provide services."
"I looked at it and about half of those cost-saving measures are basically passing costs to the town," said Orangetown Supervisor Andy Stewart. "It's very bad thing for the towns."
Vanderhoef's announcement included three specific proposals that could potentially affect towns and villages.
Sheriff's Intelligence Unit: The Sheriff's Department will stop reimbursing towns and villages for their officers for the Intelligence Unit from July to December of this year. This will save $585,000.
Out of County community college chargeback: Currently, the County reimburses community colleges outside of Rockland for the non-resident tuition of Rockland students who attend there. Under State education law, Rockland can charge back this cost to towns, but never has. This chargeback would be $1.8 million in 2012.
Board of Elections chargeback: The $1.4 million revenue was included in the 2012 budget, but requires a resolution by the County Legislature to charge back towns and villages.
Stewart and Gromack were in agreement that the change in Intelligence Task Force funding would be a bad decision. Gromack said Vanderhoef was going back on his commitment to fund the Task Force.
"He is personally jeopardizing the health, welfare and safety of the citizens of Rockland by closing one of the important law enforcement tools we have," said Gromack. "Remember it's a county task force. If he's going to defund it, he's going to cancel it. He's got some choices to make and he's made a real bad one."
"Honestly, we're trying to protect ourselves," said Stewart. "We were negotiating in good faith about one of the most important things, which was the narcotics and intelligence task force. We did a lot of work trying to reach reasonable terms with county. Now we find out they are wiping out the budget for the intelligence unit, which is a collaborative service which is important to the town."
Gromack said Clarkstown would pull its officers from the Task Force if the town were not paid for their services. The officers would be reassigned to duties within the town.
The idea of chargebacks for Rocklanders attending community colleges in other counties was also criticized.
"There is a lot that needs to be found out, in particular the question of college tuition," said Stewart. "Nobody has provided us with any information about that. There has been no real discussion of how much that costs."
Gromack said the county executive should share the additional revenue that Rockland receives from out-of-county students attending Rockland Community College.
"If he wants Clarkstown to pay all these costs then he shouldn't charge any county taxes to the residents of Clarkstown," said Gromack.
The supervisor raised objections to the Board of Elections chargeback and raised questions about the costs and funding.
"But what does it mean to share or transfer the responsibilities for running the elections especially in a year with a lot of elections, more than usual," asked Stewart? "Those programs have to function for democracy to work. The county has been running it. Are they going to charge us for it? Are we going to run it? Whose staff is going to do it? Or will they give us a bill and how do we know how much it really costs and who is really in control of it?"
Gromack noted the Board of Elections receives state and federal money. He questioned what would happen to that and pointed out that it is the County Board of Elections.
Stewart pointed out the proposals must be discussed and scrutinized before anything comes of them.
"These are proposals, but none of them can become reality without county legislature involved," he said. There is not a great history of cooperation (between the county executive and legislature). There is a lot of disfunctionality in that relationship."
Union Officials Concerned For Rank And File
The contingency plan included a notation that $18 million in salary savings is being currently negotiated but is not included as a cost savings for 2012.
PT Thomas, president of the Rockland County Unit of , said the budget cannot be balanced on the backs of county employees. He said of the county's 2,200 employees, 1800 are CSEA members.
"He knew that that $18 million would never come from union concessions," said Thomas. "We're in the negotiating process. I offered to take no increase, 0 percent for 2011 and 2012. They are not satisfied with that. They want us to give back more."
Southern Regional CSEA President Billy Riccaldo, also a county employee like Thomas, said there are nine unions whose members work for the county.
"We have always done our share with our contracts," said Riccaldo. "We'll help them. We will work with the county executive, we will work with the county legislative chair, but we expect to be treated fair and just and the county has always listened to our issues."

RALEIGH — Cardinal Gibbons handed Big Eight 3A Conference boys basketball leader Hillsborough Orange its first league loss of the season with a 54-47 win on Friday night.
Orange (15-3, 7-1) is ranked No. 5 in The News and Observer poll and got there by being a balanced, athletic team.
The Crusaders, though, evened their league record at 4-4 and overall record at 9-9 with the upset. Gibbons never trailed in the game, but Orange rallied to tie the score three different times in the fourth quarter.
"Early on, we scheduled Broughton, Cary, and Durham Jordan and we were in similar situations early and we weren't able to close games," Gibbons coach Marque Carrington said. "Whether it was missing free throws, or getting that key stop or getting that key rebound, making that key layup. I believe those games got us prepared for tonight. We were able to close it out and I was very proud of our guys."
Orange tied the score at 45 with 2:38 to play. Senior post player Moses Romocki hit a follow shot for the Crusaders and Nicholas Forbes hit two free throws for a 49-45 lead with just 40 seconds to play.
"I thought we came out and played flat," Orange coach Greg Motley said. "We were still in the game, but just needed to make some plays there late. This was a tough game for our kids, a rivalry game, and hopefully we can get focused. This was just a game we couldn't pull out."
The Panthers were playing without 6-foot-3 senior J.D. Brooks, who was on a football recruiting trip. Brooks was averaging a double-double for coach Greg Motley's team.
Romocki led his team with 18 points and also stepped up when fellow frontcourt players Justin Reid (10 points) and Logan Bugg (8 points) fouled out.
"Moses made big plays in the second half," Carrington said. "He helped bring the ball up the floor, made key free throws and layups and did a good job rebounding the whole night. The senior stepped up.
"We have multiple ball handlers and they didn't freak. This win was huge because this is what matters, conference games. Lots of guys stepped up. John Cunningham, a senior, works hard and is a dream. Off the bench Logan Bugg and Nick Forbe came in and made some free throws and handled the ball. I could go on and on. All our guys contributed."
Tay Jones, Keegan Crabtree and C.J. Brown each scored nine for the Panthers, who also played Thursday night.

It is based on the headphone amplifier chip from Maxim, the MAX9725, which can work at voltages as little as 0.9 volts (range 0.9 to 1.8 volts).
This chip does not need capacitors on its output since it has directly coupled output stages and it generates a negative supply rail by using an internal switchmode power supply stage.
This is a small surface mount chip and can be placed by automatic equipment onto a suitable printed circuit board.
I am using wires on a hand carved board, and am presenting my steps here in the hope that it will inspire somebody out there to try something similiar with the tiny chips those guys insist on manufacturing - great features, but a tiny package.
Step 1: Circuit board
Step 2: The cabinet
It is the only way to end up with an assembly little thicker than the battery powering it.
The picture shows the metal cladding being liberated from a couple of dead AA cells.
Step 3: Cutting the board to size
I would love to see something like this powered by a usb port. You could mount a small speaker wire to plug from the usb to the lineout and plug the speakers directly into the usb... What would you have to do differently as far as cap's are concerned?

Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide.
It is a clouding of the lens and can be caused by many factors. The most common is age related cataract that comes with aging. There are children born with cataracts. Eye injury is another common cause of cataract especially in Africa. Metabolic diseases e.g. Diabetes can also cause cataracts.
Treatment is surgery.
The clouded lens is removed and is replaced with a small highly specialized lens that is inserted in the eye.
Normal vision is possible with glasses. Two methods of cataract surgery are available:
- In the first, a 5mm incision is made and the both the cataract is removed and the lens is inserted through this incision. A suture may or may not be needed. This is the SICS method (small incision cataract surgery).
- In the second, an incision of 2mm is made and a special machine is introduced into the eye that breaks up the cataract and sucks it out. A special lens that is rolled up like a cigarette is introduced through the micro incision, which then opens up in the eye like a butterfly. The healing in the method is much faster. This method is referred to as Phacoemulsification cataract surgery. It is commonly referred to as a laser, although this not correct as no laser is used but ultrasound energy.
Both these surgical methods are available at UHEAL.You should visit an Eye Specialist once per year for routine checkup.For more information Contact Upper Hill Eye & Laser Centre (UHEAL) Nairobi Kenya or any other eye specialist near you.

lining up first measure
jamessalomone Unsigned
edited October 2009 in The Rock Band Network
What is the best way to get the first measure of music to line up with the tempo map (Ex: I want the downbeat of the song to land on measure 1 of the 1st meaure of music) the track I am using has some lead in prior to the first downbeat that isn't in time. Should I edit the track using Pro-Tools or is there a way to do it in Reaper. Editing the rest of the track should be a breeze because its recorded to a metronome with absolutely no tempo changes, just trying to line up the first measure and having no success thus far. Thanks in advance.
SHPhr34k Opening ActBPM the blank space so you can have a downbeat at the proper start of your song. Then BPM the first measure. Change your BPM at the start to what your first measure is. Shift all your tracks so the song starts at least 3.5 seconds in, or you have 2 full bars beforehand if the BPM is really slow.
That method should work for all songs, unless there is a lead-in note, which makes it a little more fun in the end.

Mel Gibson
Courtesy: UNCW Athletic Communications
Release: 09/30/2007
Men's basketball coach Mel Gibson ushered UNCW's hoops program into NCAA Division I play and amassed a 194-180 record over 14 seasons from 1973-86.
As a player, Gibson led Western Carolina to the NAIA national championship game in 1963. He was named an NAIA All-American and later helped Team USA win a gold medal at the 1963 Pan American Games in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Gibson was the No. 2 draft choice of the Los Angeles Lakers in 1963 and played one season of professional basketball before turning his attention to coaching. He posted a 57-34 record as the head coach at Baptist College in Charleston, S.C., before coming to UNCW as an assistant coach in 1972 and then taking over the head chair in 1973.
During Gibson's tenure, the Seahawks built a solid foundation for their success on the NCAA Division I level. His first four D-I teams carved out a solid 73-35 record, with the 1978, 1979 and 1980 clubs racking up 19 victories apiece. No other squad reached that number until the 1997-98 unit went 20-11.

Beresford Hotel
Store Street, Dublin, Ireland star
Doubles from: $67 to $120
Check Rates for Beresford HotelChecking Rates for Beresford HotelNo availability
Reviewed by EuroCheapo.com Editors
Conveniently placed adjacent to Dublin's bus terminal, the recently re-christened Beresford Hotel (it had been the Hotel Isaacs Dublin) is an easy pick for its location as well as its solid rooms and relatively reasonable rates. This three-star hotel's 103 rooms are a cut above the rooms found in most of Dublin's budget-friendly properties.
Rooms at the Beresford come in two varieties. There's the modern business-class type, with its very familiar crisp duvets dressed with ruby-red throws and round table of blond wood surrounded by matching chairs. A working space is crowded with a desk lamp, telephone, electric kettle and coffee and tea supplies. You've seen it before. Its very familiarity is more comforting than sexy.
Then there are the Georgian rooms, available upon request. They're fancy, with overstuffed chairs, ottomans, dainty bedside lampshades. The model we saw was massive, and surely at the top end of the hotel's rate scale. All rooms are equipped with a television, and air conditioning is available (request ahead).
With the new name and new management came a welcome change—Wi-Fi is now free throughout the hotel. Parking, though, still costs €12.50 per day.
Breakfast is sometimes included in the room rate (check when booking).

[Editor's Note: Occupy the Farm shared this piece, written by Jeffrey M. Romm, of UC Berkeley's Department of Environmental Science, Policy, & Management, with Albany Patch. Click the "Keep me posted" button for updates on this topic.]
The Gill Tract occupation needs to be understood in contemporary context. Things have changed since earlier college rejections of two community agriculture plans for the Tract. The changes deserve credit in a perspective of the occupation because they create opportunities for the College of Natural Resources (CNR) and the campus, and may translate into growing respect for the community. Moreover, refusal in the old way no longer would be covered with the guise of earlier justifications.
I supported the first BACUA plan, about 15 years ago, that set forth a vision for the future of the Tract in community agriculture. That plan was refused. At Dean Rausser's behest some years later, I chaired a committee of faculty, extension and community members to develop a new plan that would have created a center for urban agriculture connecting campus and community. Community members at the time included Shyaam Shabaka and Sibella Krauss, both of whom went on to create vibrant programs in community agriculture with associated educational and nutritional dimensions.
Leaders of the systemwide sustainability program were involved, as were faculty of CNR and the College of Environmental Design, including the chair of the California Food Security Council. That plan provided a viable basis for development, needing refinement primarily in the details of the university-community relationship. The plan was refused. By refusal, I mean that it was denied good-faith consideration. The justifications for the refusal deserve mention because they now are demonstrably devoid of basis, if an absence of good faith can ever be described as possessing it.
First, urban community agriculture was then perceived in the college to be a marginal enterprise, variously imaged as hobbyist, ideological, personalized, insignificant and foreign. The evidence—hundreds of small groups in the Bay Area alone—was diffuse, as yet unrecorded, and without visibility or apparent impact. Although some saw an emerging trend, most thought the evidence and organization too thin to justify a program.
Today, urban agriculture has moved into the mainstream of metropolitan conception, policy, design and behavior. This is undeniable. Tours through the Bay Area would convince the more obdurate. Oakland, San Francisco and Richmond provide classic examples, while Milwaukee, Chicago, Detroit and Washington, D.C., demonstrate the tremendous innovation urban agriculture has stimulated in the use of city spaces for the production and distribution of nutritious food, as well as the creation of new jobs and educational opportunities.
Urban plans are being shaped by a desire to create agricultural spaces that provide new modes of livelihood. Trends in the federal food bill, explicitly and not, have favored consumer wellbeing, access and equity, with consequent shifts of focus in the definition and execution of agriculture. The San Francisco Chronicle even editorializes on the matter with some exuberance in this morning's edition. While I do not want to overstate the trend, I doubt the college would choose to withdraw so as to write and analyze its history rather than to affect it.
Second, the college then lacked the faculty and extension capacity to support a Center and coordinate its community functions. The plan proposed new faculty and extension positions to build the expertise. More than a decade later, these new positions exist and are filled with wonderful scholars and specialists. Occupants of other-described positions have shifted toward the emerging research and education nexus of food, health, environmental justice and economic productivity. Faculty and centers across campus are engaged in this convergence. They have produced research, gained influence, and had tangible impact on the ground. Food and agriculture no longer are CNR propertied topics. Within the college, upwards of half the undergraduates, perhaps 25 percent of the graduate students, the vigorous , and a range of other faculty endeavors, demonstrate how far we have moved in the decade.
Third, a decade ago, CNR work on cooperative stewardship arrangements had yet to gain the visibility and current international recognition it has today. That work inevitably focused on problems created by divides between those with authority over land and those with the need and capacity for its management. The work addressed relations between Forest Service and tribes, Forest Service and communities, Bureau of Reclamation and tribal, farming and environmental groups, industrial-community partnerships, watershed councils, urban health and nutrition collaboratives, and cooperative wildlife, forest and fisheries management.
The current Gill Tract issue replicates the kind of problem that many college researchers have worked successfully to overcome, i.e. structural divides that prevent effective ecosystem management in large part by excluding those with the strongest motives for beneficial action. Faculty and students so involved cannot be expected to turn their backs on the core lessons of their careers. The mutual benefits of overcoming the divide and achieving cooperative relations between campus and community are so demonstrable and compelling that a number of faculty would not maintain their integrity if siding with the party that refuses opportunities for cooperation and adaptability.
The Gill Tract occupation creates a huge opportunity. After 15 years of stonewall in the midst of sweeping social and ecological changes, the occupation should have come as no surprise to anyone. It does come at a time, though, when the university has become surrounded by community generated agricultural enterprise and has established its own capacity to respond in truly excellent fashion. The occupation has been conducted with utmost respect for the university, the community and the land. Equivalent responses by the university would produce a major step forward for everyone. The meaning and matter of Gill Tract extend throughout the Bay Area, with the potential for much more.

From Business Today:
The heat is being turned up on Steven J. Baum PC, the Amherst-based law firm that handles more foreclosures than any other in the state. It has been crossed off the list of firms that banks can use if the mortgage in question has been handled by Freddie Mac. Freddie Mac is one of two quasi-public mortgage companies that handle most of the mortgages in the nation. A spokesman for Freddie Mac would not disclose the reason the firm has been black listed, but the action comes not long after photos of the tasteless Halloween party at the firm became public. The photos showed employees at the firm mocking people being evicted from their homes. Not good for the law firm doing most of the evicting. Steven Baum, the principal of the firm, says that lawyers are not the problem with the foreclosure system.
The Statler Center, a business school that trains people with disabilities for jobs in the hospitality sector, is seeking applications for courses that begin next month.
