Climate Change Adaptation
In the context of climate change, adaptation is about doing all we can to prepare ourselves for the impacts of climate change and managing the risks that it presents.
What is the Council doing to adapt to climate change?
Hampshire County Council has been building expertise, developing knowledge, working in partnership and leading projects on Climate Change Adaptation for many years.
Political support
2004: Members' seminar to raise awareness of climate change issues
2004: HCC signed Aalborg Commitments, pan-European sustainability framework
2006: Full Council agreed vision 'Within a decade Hampshire will prosper, without risking our environment' and that climate change posed greatest threat to it.
2007: the Council convened a Commission of Inquiry (CoI) on climate change, chaired by The Leader of the Council. This was tasked with examining how Hampshire can adapt to become more resilient to the impacts of climate change, take advantage of the opportunities there may be, and to identify and prioritise adaptation actions for the County Council. Experts presented evidence to the Commission, the Commission reported findings and recommendations to HCC in November 2007, and a set of actions was agreed and adopted. The CoI continues to convene on a regular basis.
2008: The Hampshire Accord signed by Minister for the SE, Jonathan Shaw, MP formalised cooperation between the Government (DEFRA) and the County Council.
Working with Government
The County Council engage with Government in policy development at a national level to ensure it can easily link to sub-national policy and practical delivery on the ground. Examples include:
- Committee for Climate Change
- Climate Change Risk Assessment (national)
The years of groundwork and capacity building have enabled the County Council, and its district and other public sector partners, to be in a strong position to approach the task of developing an Action Plan in response to climate change.
Climate Change Adaptation Action Plan
Hampshire County Council has taken a lead role in working with other partners to conduct comprehensive risk assessments of services and responsibilities, and to work out how vulnerable these are to the impacts of climate change in the short, medium and long term.
The risk assessments, as well as a number of other sources of information, have been used to develop an Adaptation Action Plan, which includes around 25 strategic actions, and is currently in draft form.

3 Milwaukee TV stations confirm staffers signed recall petitions
Two more local television stations Wednesday confirmed that their news employes signed petitions to recall Gov. Scott Walker. The stations came forward in the wake of an admission on the WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) news Tuesday night that as many as six broadcast employees at WTMJ had signed the petition.
Steve Wexler, vice president of radio and TV for Journal Broadcast Group, would not reveal the names of the personnel in question. But WTMJ-AM (620) sports show host and reporter Trenni Kusnierek confirmed that she had signed a petition.
On Wednesday, WISN-TV (Channel 12) confirmed that three photojournalists came forward in the wake of the WTMJ-TV report. The matter "is being dealt with internally," said WISN-TV president and general manager Jan Wade.
Overt political activity, such as signing the petitions, is usually prohibited by news organizations because it creates mistrust in the objectivity of their news coverage.
"We have a station policy which prohibits it," said Wade. "In addition, as journalists, our folks know that they must remain totally unbiased."
WITI-TV (Channel 6) also confirmed that one of its photojournalists signed the petition and was being reassigned. Chuck Steinmetz, station president and general manager, said the person came forward last month after employees were reminded of station policy.
"From that day forward until he leaves, the station they are not going to be allowed to cover anything related to Scott Walker," said Steinmetz.
Journal Broadcast Group is owned by the owner of the Journal Sentinel.
WDJT-TV (Channel 58) did not respond to questions about its employees.

Wow... to work you really do have to sell your sole to the devil. Signing a recall petition has now been made a terminable offense in the eyes of republican maggots who would most likely support stoning as a punishment. You're all sick and I suspect you would support racism if it happens to fit your particular needs.Hide replies
Do you undertand they are in the business of reporting the news and are suppose to not have a bias. By signing a petition that is clearly available to the public. It put there ability to not be bias clearly in question They signed a contract that said they cannot do this they should abide by it. Oh thats right any contract or law you don't agree with doesn't matter because you disagree with it. Thats liberal thinking.
It was not known that these recall lists were going to be made public. Further, journalists have worked for the last century covering politicians of all stripes while having their own private bias. There were reporters covering FDR who did not like him or his politics. They could have easily reported the fact that he was in a wheelchair and walked with braces, which the general public did not know. They did not. There were many reporters who did not like JFK or agree with his politics, and knew of his romantic escapades with various women while in office. They could have reported these things to the public. They did not. Ethics are a funny thing - you either have them or you don't. Apparently, some of these news organizations don't trust their employees and don't believe their employees have the proper ethics, such that they need to have them sign documents affirming certain behavior, both during work hours and outside of work hours. I find that offensive and infringing on the constitutional rights of these employees. Releasing the names of people who signed the Recall petitions should not have happened, either. It is nobody's business - a personal decision. But, we now live in this Orwellian age where satellite images of your home are online, your identity can be stolen, your library records can be accessed, your employer can control nearly aspect of your life, and so on. I find this all very distressing, but the Republicans on this blog seem to rejoice in it and call it "Liberal thinking" if you question any of this egregious behavior. Interesting, to say the very least.
What a joke. All of us can have our own personal, political, and professional opinions. This in no way affects our ability to do our job.

Not at all surprised. We have known for years that almost the entire media is in the tank for the radical left. This just confirms it. Thank God for talk radio exposing this absolute hypocrisy. Actually, this recall madness created by the union thugs is turning out to be a good thing because for years now we will be able to search that database and find the leftist who are out to coddle the unions and raise our taxes.Hide replies
LOL.. Awesome post from 45acp... Entire Media is radical left. Thank god for Talk Radio. Recall madness by union thugs..
Huh, I guess Trenni is a thug then eh? Or me? Or the other 900k that signed the petition? Grow up. This is nothing but a witch hunt to get that non-like minded purged of their station. People can think for themselves unless you follow lock and step behind the Republican banter... I think it was good to "verify" the vote by removing fake names and duplicates, but this is an attack on a private process, or at least it should have been.
They should not vote either.
These stations should also have to report that their employees also take bathroom breaks and really do use the toilet from time to time.
Do these people also have to disclose who they vote for too?
Airwar - In this country, voting is by secret ballot, and hence a private act. Petitioning for the removal of a government official is a public act.
In part one Anthony learned that his foellw writers at the Journal Sentinel were not fans of his. In part two convinced that they were the only ones, Anthony set off to find someone who liked him at Miller Park only to be met with more failure and a cross-dressing Doug Melvin. In part three Anthony blamed the state of Wisconsin instead of his own shortcomings and headed back to his home in California where his favorite team was playing a meaningful game, but he found that Hollywood celebrities and the Dodgers did not like him either. With nowhere to go he returned to Wisconsin looking for answers.

A LETTER FROM LONDON: Much Ado in India, Cabaret and I Am a Camera, Alan Ayckbourn's Chorus of Disapproval
By Ruth Leon
A look at London's East Indian-set Much Ado About Nothing; Eileen Atkins and Michael Gambon in All That Fall; Cabaret and its source material, I Am a Camera; A Chorus of Disapproval; and two new modern-war plays.
What on earth are Dame Eileen Atkins and Sir Michael Gambon doing in a tiny, 60-seater basement as the stars and only characters of a play none of us has ever heard of? Theatrical royalty, knights and dames, are, when sighted onstage, usually in major West End theatres, not hidden away beneath an Italian restaurant. All is revealed when you know that the play, All That Fall, is by the late great Samuel Beckett.
We thought we knew all the plays of Samuel Beckett. The deliberate silences, the darkness, the obscurity, the bleakness, the purposeful use of odd stage directions for his characters — a woman is buried up to her neck in sand, a couple live in garbage cans, a man trudges endlessly back and forth playing tapes of his own voice, a play using only a mouth — are all devices familiar to the intellectual theatregoer.
Sam Beckett — the playwright who makes Harold Pinter as clear as Noël Coward, and as funny — has a "new" play, new to us, that is. It was originally written for radio, still a thriving theatrical medium in Britain, and its author consistently refused to allow it to be staged. Even now the two actors are clutching scripts, making it clear that this is not a staging of the play but a staged reading, complete with fake microphones. Still, it is new and it is Beckett so the director, Sir Trevor Nunn, matches the celebrity of the stars.
The Jermyn Street Theatre is one of my favorite London theatres, and the only one I can think of where the audience can't go to the bathroom during the play because it is behind the stage and you'd have to cross the playing area to get to it. The Beckett estate is notoriously secretive and it's a coup for this tiny theatre to have been granted the rights.
One of the most interesting juxtapositions of Shakespeare I've seen in a while is the new West End Much Ado About Nothing (by Royal Shakespeare Company) reset from Italy to India and starring an all-Asian cast. In a country with a huge indigenous Indian community this makes perfect sense, especially when it stars our two best-known British-Indian actors, Meera Syal and Paul Bhattacharjee as Beatrice and Benedick. Even the sub-plot, that idiotic notion about virginity and betrayal between Hero and Don Carlo, makes sense when set in a community where virginity and honor are still important notions.
This Much Ado is colorful and intelligent. I just wish it hadn't come so hard on the heels of two other splendid productions of less than a year ago. You can have too much of a good thing.
I never feel old, never. If anything, I feel too young to cope with everything that's happening in our world. But this week I saw a tribute band show about the Beatles, Let It Be, and realized that I could sing every single lyric, knew every note, instantly recognized every song from the very first notes of the introduction.
Whether the performers in the show, an interchangeable group who look sort of like the Beatles, are any good or not doesn't matter. What does is that they brought my youth alive, a time when it was all ahead of me. The entire audience had grey hair and was on its feet throughout, singing, laughing, dancing. It is really fun and if you're the right age you'll love it. Would I go back to that time? No, but I was glad to revisit it for a couple of hours.
Not over there, but over here when the boys get back. Our Boys at the Duchess Theatre is a searing and beautifully written drama by Jonathan Lewis about six young men — recently returned from Iraq and Afghanistan — in a military hospital ward recovering (or not) from various wounds, both physical and emotional.
Bully Boy, at the new St. James Theatre, is a two-actor play about war, friendship, and that perennial British preoccupation, class. It stars Anthony Andrews — in his strongest performance in years — as a wheelchair-using officer of the old school, trying to decide whether a chippy working-class soldier (Joshua Miles, almost frighteningly believable) is or is not culpable in the death of his comrades.
Bully Boy is, rather surprisingly, by the writer-comedienne Sandi Toksvig, who has managed to get into the heads of these alpha male characters and write a scary examination of what war means today.
On a (much) lighter note, at the Pinter Theatre is Alan Ayckbourn's A Chorus of Disapproval. Ayckbourn is the master of the English middle class. His infallible ear for the way people actually speak and his ability to heighten without parody is uncanny. In this comedy about community theatre or, as it known here, amdram, is not only funny but possessed of a splendid understanding of English innocence. Nigel Harman plays a man who joins a small town group putting on a production of The Beggar's Opera and, with no intention to do so, proceeds to decimate the company both on- and off-stage. Ayckbourn writes the best first acts outside of Shakespeare, although, as here, by the second act, the hilarious situations he has set up in the first tend to tip over into preposterousness by the end. No matter, A Chorus of Disapproval is hugely entertaining.
Rufus Norris' new production of Cabaret is shockingly good. I had misgivings when I heard that Will Young, the first winner of television's "Pop Idol," was to play the Master of Ceremonies in Cabaret. This is an iconic role, as specific to Joel Grey as Yul Brynner was to The King and I, and I doubted whether Young had the dramatic chops to carry it. Wrong, again. He's really creepy in a disgustingly playful way, just as he should be, and Rufus Norris' dark production pays proper attention to the seedy and sordid side of Sally Bowles' Berlin life.
The score soars as always, Sian Phillips and Linal Haft are affecting as the older couple in '30s Berlin who simply can't be together because he is Jewish and she isn't, and, although young Michelle Ryan in her first major role, is no Liza Minnelli, her Sally Bowles has just the right touch of louche sexiness to carry her.
Javier di Frutos disjointed, spasmodic choreography is a true metaphor for a fragmented decadent society fast descending into goose-stepping Nazi chaos. The underlying menace, intentioned by its authors, leads to a terrifying final scene, which I won't spoil for you, but which confirms Rufus Norris, along with Jamie Lloyd whose Cyrano has recently won plaudits on Broadway, as the best of the young British directors.

Our last public appeal (for models) had an overwhelming response and thank you to all that applied.
We would like to ask the public again to leave an impression on us, but interestingly, we only want to hear from the women this time. (Fellas, continue to read, as ultimately this may benefit you).
Ladies, I want to ask a question:
"In menswear, what item of clothing makes the biggest impression and tells you most about them? What should dudes give the MOST consideration to in their outfit?"
Now, there are no right or wrong answers, and no answer is too short or too long. If you just say 'hat', that's cool, but if you want to go deep on the stitching of Helmut Lang trousers, that is also up to you, ha.
Here comes the fun part – you need to send us your response as a video or a photo with you holding up a sign with your answer on it :-)
Email your vid / YouTube link / Facebook link / picture to email@example.com and the first 40 responses will be featured in our montage.

A woman who told police she was raped by as many as three men at a house party near Duke University also said she was robbed, according to a police report.
According to the report, the victim, who told police she was raped March 13 at a party at 610 N. Buchanan Blvd., was also robbed of a $300 cell phone and a large amount of cash.
It is The News & Observer's policy not to identify victims of reported sex crimes.
No suspects have been named in the case, but Sgt. Mark Gottlieb of the Durham Police Department said Tuesday that police are following several leads and that the residents of the rental house, which faces the university's East Campus, are being cooperative.
About 30 people were at the party, which started late March 13 and went into the early morning, and alcohol was involved, Gottlieb has said.

Here's a quick look back at the one game and the District 12-7A runner-up tiebreaker played Monday night.
Vero Beach 37, Wellington 2
What it means: The Fighting Indians (7-1) won their fourth consecutive game and second in five days. Vero Beach moved within one win of its second consecutive one-loss regular season.
It was over when: Roosevetl Spruill caught a 6-yard pass from Dalton Stokes 22 seconds before halftime for a 23-2 lead.
Key statistics: Vero Beach quarterback Dalton Stokes was 23-of-30 for 243 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran for a touchdown. Javonte Bagley caught a season-high nine passes for 142 yards and Will Dawkins had six catches for 63 yards. Spruill hada game-high 70 yards rushing on 11 carries.
Etc.: Has there ever been a game in state history in which the teams were tied at 2 after one quarter? ... Stokes had a 60-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, the Indians' longest run of the season ... Sloan Drummonds threw a 24-yard touchdown pass to Jimmy Williamson in the fourth quarter for his first varsity TD pass. He's the third Vero Beach player to throw a TD pass this season ... Vero Beach has scored in 15 of its last 16 quarters ... The Indians reached 30 points for the fifth time this season ... Stokes has 21 touchdown passes, six shy of the school record set last season by Nick Madden in 11 games.
Bet you didn't know: Vero Beach has won 26 consecutive games when scoring 30 points or more. The last time the Indians lost when scoring 30 or more was a 40-32 loss to American Heritage (Plantation) on Oct. 20, 2006.
Next up: Vero Beach wraps its 86th regular season Thursday, hosting Santaluces (5-3) at 7 p.m.
District 12-7A runner-up tiebreaker: Port St. Lucie 7, Viera 0; Martin County 7, Port St. Lucie 0 (OT)
What it means: Martin County heads to the playoffs for a school-record third consecutive season as a district runner-up. Port St. Lucie was denied its first playoff berth in 22 years.
It was over when: Martin County's Janarie Jones recovered a fumble on Port St. Lucie's second play of the Kansas tiebreaker, needed when the Tigers and Jaguars failed to score in one quarter of play.
Key plays: Martin County's Jermohn Queen scored on a 2-yard run on the first series of the Kansas tiebreaker. The Tigers lined up in their Bulls and Bears package, in which Queen lines up at quarterback with 10 blockers in front ... Port St. Lucie's D.J. Juste scored on a 12-yard touchdown run against Viera. Lyle Messam had an interception and Cleveland Williams a fumble recovery.
Etc.: Martin County was coming off a 24-14 loss to previously winless Viera on Friday. Port St. Lucie had lost to Fort Pierce Central 49-12 five days earlier for its most lopsided loss of the season ... Martin County will play Punta Gorda-Charlotte (5-4) in a rematch of last year's Region 3-7A quarterfinal. Charlotte won a three-way tiebreaker for the District 11-7A championship ... Port St. Lucie lined up for a 56-yard field goal at the end of its quarter against Martin County, but ultimately opted for a long pass that sailed out of the end zone.
Bet you didn't know: This is the first year in which all three Martin County teams -- South Fork, Jensen Beach and Martin County -- qualified for the playoffs.
Next up: Martin County completes its 87th regular season Friday at Jensen Beach (4-5). Port St. Lucie wraps its 24th season Friday at St. Lucie West Centennial.

Do you believe in past lives?
The idea of past lives and reincarnation is not only a hot topic, but one filled with controversy as well. I find it's a 50/50 split when it comes to people's opinions on the matter.
I first learned about reincarnation back in the 1980's when
Shirley MacLaine came out with her book, Out
on a Limb. It was a topic that fascinated me, so I decided to pursue it
further and started reading some books by Edgar Cayce. Despite being a Catholic
(Catholics as a whole don't really believe in reincarnation), I happen to think
there is some truth to the theory.
How can we possibly accomplish everything we're supposed to
in one lifetime? There are lessons needed to be learned, relationships that
must be formed, work that needs to be done. And I don't mean housework or our
careers. I'm talking about spiritual work...the kind of work that brings us
closer to God and makes us better people during our lifetimes. I believe it
takes multiple lifetimes to achieve this. Many lifetimes, but one soul. God
creates only one of us. Our physical bodies are kind of like cars. When it gets
old and worn out, we get a new one.
How else can certain things be explained, such as why do
babies die? Why does a young person die tragically in an accident? Is that all
their life was supposed to be? I don't think so. I believe their lives continue
in Heaven, and that eventually, when the time is right, they come back. We
usually come back with other family members and even friends who've we shared
other lifetimes with.
How can a child protégé be explained? How can you explain
meeting someone for the first time, yet you feel you've known them your whole
life? How can you explain being familiar with a place you've never been to? So
many questions, so much to consider.
Last August I decided to find out for myself, and I met with
licensed psychotherapist and past-life regression therapist Richard Scheinberg.
Richard has a very successful practice in East Islip called Sunrise Counseling
Center. Richard happens to be a wonderful author as well, and I've known him
for a number of years. Richard trained under Brian Weiss, who is world renowned
when it comes to reincarnation and past lives. So I knew I was in good hands
working with Richard.
I was a bit apprehensive and wasn't sure if the process
would work for me, despite my believing in it. I spent a lot of time talking
with Richard ahead of time. He explained the whole process and he relieved my
fears. I had agreed to work with him on creating a short video which would
include excerpts from my session, along with my journey to discovering more
about my past life. We spent months working with video reporter Chris Collora,
who did a wonderful job in filming and putting it all together. The video is
really quite remarkable. If you'd like to view it, go to this link: http://www.richardcscheinberg.com/video/?vid=102
I'm not trying to convince anyone to become a believer in
past lives. I'm simply presenting information to you, so go easy on your
comments. I know my blogs have caused some controversy in the past. I'm simply giving you some food for thought...something to contemplate. If you're
interested in having your own past life regression session, you can visit

Police have dismissed rumours online that a Stanford-le-Hope bookmaker has been robbed
5:54pm Monday 24th February 2014 in Echo News
POLICE have dismissed speculation that a bookmaker in Stanford-le-Hope was robbed earlier today.
Rumours quickly spread online amongst residents that Coral on the High Street had been targeted by thieves, after seeing the police helicopter hovering over the town.
However police confirmed that the helicopter was deployed for assistance in searching for a wanted man.
The twitter feed for the helicopter, @NPAS_Boreham, said: "24/2 1610 #StanfordleHope assisting with a search for a wanted man. Vehicle monitored and stopped by ground units."
It later added: "24/2 1730 whilst on scene at #StanfordleHope we heard reports of a man running across gardens and helped with that search."

This fridge has the SAME EXTERIOR DIMENSIONS and has the SAME SQUARE FOOTAGE as our old fridge, but we have way more room b/c of the layout. We even have empty spaces on the shelves, whereas our old shelves were so packed that we had a hard time finding things. The ADJUSTABLE SHELVES are great! I customized our fridge to fit our needs, unlike our old side-by-side. I can easily change the layout, too, if I need to fit a large tray in the fridge. Again, that was not possible with our old side-by-side. The LIGHTS are so bright - we can see everything. LOVE THEM! The HIDDEN ICE MAKER is a plus. At first, the ice was melting slightly and getting clumped together on the bottom, but we are now using the ultra ice feature which seems to have fixed that problem. It makes little square ice cubes, instead of those half-moon shaped ones that always get stuck between your drink and your mouth. The plus side is that the ice cubes are made more quickly b/c they're smaller and they don't get in the way when you're drinking. The downside is that they melt more quickly b/c they're smaller. I just put more ice in my drink, and that seems to help. I would like another DOOR BIN or two, but I can order them separately, so not a deal-breaker. I like the white bins that come with this fridge better than the clear ones. You can't see any spilled messes at the bottom, so the fridge always looks clean. The CRISPER DRAWERS are large and fit everything that we need to put in them. The longer, more narrow drawer at the bottom of the fridge is awesome for yogurt and smaller items. We have yet to fill it up. I had to talk my husband into getting this FRENCH DOOR STYLE FRIDGE VS. A SIDE-BY-SIDE FRIDGE. He thought it would be hard to get things out of the freezer, but it's not. We keep the most used items in the sliding drawer at the top and the rest is neatly piled at the bottom of the drawer. No issues there. Having MORE SPACE HORIZONTALLY makes such a big difference. Everything we use is at waist level and up - no more bending down to get to the apples (or anything else) at the bottom of our old side-by-side fridge. It's just another great feature of a French Door fridge. Yes, we bend down to get freezer items, but we don't use them as often, so it's no biggie. I'll never buy another side-by-side fridge again! Don't hesitate - BUY THIS FRIDGE! You'll love it, too. :)

I've only had for a weekend so I have no long term opinions. My old fridge was a very old top freezer GE with no options so I expected to be very pleased with the upgrade. I'm more than pleased with this fridge. Looks great inside and out. My bulldog loves seeing his reflection in black. LED lighting and glass shelves are as functional as they are great looking. It's pretty quiet and the small ice maker will be more than adequate for my use. Great ice size for mixed drinks! Best of all it was $1k off the original price. So far it's a great purchase.

Size is great.. Designed well.. More affordable than most. We were very happy originally but there is one design flaw in my opinion. The right side door does not have a magnet to shut the door. So if you don't close it all the wayway, the alarm goes off that it is not closed. I guess we will learn to close it all the way bit you would think that a $1400 refrigerator would have a door magnet

This was a great buy. From the courteous, freindly salesman, to the professional delevery people. Sears is a company you can trust. We are very happy with the refrigerator,much better tan our side by side.

You have opem the two door to get to the bottom drawers and less room on the side of the door. I found it to be small once we got it home.

I have wanted this type of refrigerator for a long time and am pleased with my purchase. It is so much easier for me to organize the items I refrigerate so that my mother who is 95 can find items in a more timely fashion. There is room for all the leftovers without cramping the areas most often needed for refrigerated items. Overall I am happy with my new toy! Iam looking forward to years of good refrigeration service.

Had a Kenmore (Whirlpool) for 7 yrs but the freezer was just too small. As an old employee from the 80's and my parents always buying Kenmore I wouldn't buy anything else. I wanted to upgrade to the "french door". The price was almost half off and couldn't pass it up. I was hoping this Kenmore was made by Whirlpool but is made by LG. I do hope it does last a long time. Only complaint so far is that I wish the door was textured like the sides.

Been wanting a new refrig. for a while. I had my last 18cf. Kenmore (Whirlpool) for 7 yrs. Works great but the freezer was just too small. Been watching the price on this Kenmore (LG) for months. I go it on May 31st. So far EVERYTHING is great. I wish the door was textured like the sides, but other then that no complaints.

We pick a point out of eternity to start a calendar. I know calendars are a way to measure, and an old necessity. Still, it's like using a 12-inch ruler on a ray of sunlight or starlight.
Now that the Mayan calendar has ended, I'll confess I'm weary of all these endings and beginnings. I've lived through too many of them, including growing up during The Cold War when the end was at some stranger's fingertips.
My first experience with the end of the world is a vague memory that was to happen on Feb. 4, 1962. There was supposed to be a physical destruction that took place at a precise time on that winter's evening. I was in seventh grade and a little unsure about what to believe.
I said goodbye to my family just in case, and went out to the barn to shoot some hoops before the final buzzer. When I walked back into the house an hour later, the world was still there.
I never got over the dawning of The Age of Aquarius. I was an all-state football player, a Friday night warrior who wanted to become a Navy Seal. Then Aquarius rolled over me like a cosmic wheel of consciousness.
My hair started to grow long, and I was practically run out of my hometown. I became a poet and a peace man. I'm not a pacifist, but I'd fight for a person's right to be one.
The Harmonic Convergence happened during the early years of Stone Circle, a triple ring of boulders featuring poetry, storytelling and music on my property north of Elk Rapids. It was the most out-of-tune night we've ever had. Three carloads of amateur mystics showed up and tried to steal the show.
Then there was the year 2000, or Y2K,when our computers would all go kerflooey, triggering global chaos and causing people to die of loneliness because there would be no Facebook. I was performing poetry at Cadillac's First Night when that didn't happen.
According to those who believe they know, as the Mayan calendar ends, another new age begins. The world is moving into an era of more environmental awareness, enlightenment and an awakening of feminine energy. Please explain that to the lame ducks in Michigan's legislature.
Mayans were some of the first people to play professional sports. Their favorite game was POK-a-tok, and was played with a hard ball about the size of a human head. The players wore padding of cotton stuffed in wooden frames. The losers' leader was sacrificed to their gods. If the NFL followed those rules, the Detroit Lions wouldn't have many players left.
I sincerely hope we're entering a new age of consciousness.
Now if I can survive all the Super Bowl hyperbole, I'll be able to concentrate on my ritual of art and life again.
For you disappointed folks still following the Lions, you'll have to wait for the next calendar, or read the poem I wrote after student interviews with Don Glowicki as part of my Elders Projects. It rolls time back more than half a century to when the Detroit Lions were actually good.
Poet Bard Terry Wooten has been performing and conducting writing workshops in schools for 29 years. He is also the creator of Stone Circle north of Elk Rapids. Learn more about him at www.terry-wooten.com.

This utility knife is one of my favorite tool purchases ever. The knife is easy to use, by opening and closing like a jack-knife. The blades change easily in three steps, and it uses standard utility blades, making it easy to keep stocked with fresh blades. The anodized aluminum body makes it very light but strong, and the knurled surface ensures a good grip even when your hands are a bit on the slippery side.
I actually purchased a second one during a rebate special, so it ended up being free. I probably use these knives once a week, for opening packages, or prying small things (not recommended), or cutting apart cardboard for recycling. I have yet to have any problems with either one, and even if I did have a problem, it's backed up by the Craftsman forever guarantee.
The only thing I think could be improved is the holster, which is nylon mesh. A leather holster would be nice as a separate item. If Sears sold the holster from the wood-handled version of this knife separately, it would be a great seller, as I've had many professionals asking if we carried them after the nylon wore out. For the average homeowner, this isn't really an issue, but for people using this knife as part of their job, it makes all the difference.
As a basic maintenance tip, give the hinge a little spray of WD-40 every now and then, and move the joint back and forth to work the WD-40 in, to protect it from dirt and moisture.
If you pick up this knife (which usually goes on sale for around $8), you will not be disappointed.
had this for 1 week and broke! very disappointed...cheap! don't buy it!

Tony Kanaan, superstar Indy Car racer, is also an avid triathlete. We caught up with him when he flew up to Boulder, CO for a bike fit with Retul fit studios. Tony wanted to get dialed in on his brand new Trek Speed Concept, and wanted to get the very best.

As if the new Speed Concept wasn't cool enough on its own, Trek has developed additional parts that provide some really nice customization options.
Perhaps the biggest surprise of the past year was Trek's launch of a completely new, insanely-improved Speed Concept. Here's our in-depth review of the baddest superbike in town.

Original recipe yields 4 servings
- Cook and stir the curry powder and curry paste in a saucepan over medium-low heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour the coconut milk into the saucepan and mix well. Stir in the fish sauce, brown sugar, and 1 cup chicken stock.
- Place the chicken thighs, peas, peppers, and carrots into the saucepan with the curry sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the chicken is cooked though, about 25 minutes.
- Whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold chicken stock. Stir cornstarch mixture into the curry. Mix the pineapple into the curry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

I submitted this recipe, so keep in mind the rating is biased...unfortunately the editors took out my notes from the original submission, but I think there are a couple of things that will help prepare this. 1) Curry paste is a mixture of curry powder, ghee, lemongrass and other spices. It can be found commercially at places like Amazon or high end grocery stores like Bristol-Farms in San Francisco. Any color/flavor of curry will do, as per your preference. They even have variety packs you can get. 2) One can substitute lite coconut milk and it is 60% less calories and fat and tastes the same (also available at places like Amazon). 3) Add 1 tablespoon or more curry paste, depending on your spice level desired. 1 T is about low-medium spice. If you over-spice, add more brown sugar (this only works to a limiting degree). 4) Prepare and stir in rice or cellophane noodles for added texture. Also can be served over rice or with naan. 5) Mix up the vegetables. Add cubed potatoes, beans, mushrooms or whatever. Frozen vegetables can easily be added.
Great recipe! Tastes like restaurant curry. It is important to TRIPLE the curry paste and curry powder. I first made it with the recipe proportions and it was bland. To fix the batch, I repeated the first step of cooking the paste and powder in a saucepan and just added that to the first batch and the taste was perfect! I used the Thai Kitchen red curry paste.
I LOVE this recipe! I have added straw mushrooms before or substituted chicken for tofu and chickenbroth for vegetable broth. It is still delicious! (when substituting tofu: drain tofu, put between paper towels and put weights on top. I usually use canned goods inside of a pan. After an hour, cut the tofu into triangles and sprinkle yellow thai curry on both sides. Fry in 2tbls of olive oil and add to the dish when it is in the last 5 minutes of cooking.)

CHICAGO, Feb. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- NORC at the University of Chicago has been selected to lead the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey (MCBS), the leading source of information and analysis of the Medicare program's direct impact on beneficiaries. The survey will also play an essential role in monitoring and evaluating key provisions of the Affordable Care Act, including innovative new models of delivering and coordinating care for the Medicare population. The 3-year project was awarded to NORC by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) following a rigorous competitive bidding process.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131120/DC20688LOGO-b)
"NORC is delighted to have the opportunity to lead this landmark health care research project," said Dan Gaylin, President and CEO of NORC at the University of Chicago. "Carrying out the nation's most comprehensive longitudinal survey of the Medicare population is vital work that aligns well with NORC's deep and growing portfolio of innovative health care research."
The MCBS is sponsored by CMS and directed by the Office of Information Products and Data Analytics in partnership with the newly formed Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation. The survey has been carried out continuously for more than 20 years, encompassing more than one million interviews.
"The MCBS is a flagship health care survey that complements NORC's work on other large health care projects like the National Immunization Survey and the Nationwide Adult Medicaid Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems or 'CAHPS,' survey," said Stephen Smith, director of NORC's Health Care Research department. "But, more importantly, it provides information upon which important decisions are made that shape the effort to improve the health care and health outcomes for all Americans."
The MCBS generates critical data on access to services, quality of care, and satisfaction for the Medicare program, which covers more than 50 million older Americans and individuals under age 65 with disabilities. Data from the MCBS are used to inform many products, including fiscal projections produced by the Congressional Budget Office and the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission.

Two months ago, Max Gristina was tongue-tied literally.
The Columbus toddler was born with several birth defects that affected his mouth, including a cleft lip and palate. Maxs tongue-tie made it difficult for him to move his tongue properly, which impeded his feeding and speech.
Today, the 19-month-old toddler no longer faces those conditions thanks to the physicians at Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite. He underwent surgery to repair the defects at the childrens hospital in October.
Hes at the perfect age to take off, learn how to speak and not be impeded by anything, said mother Joanne Gristina.
Max was born May 5, 2008, to Joanne and husband Thomas Gristina, an attorney at Page, Scrantom, Sprouse, Tucker & Ford in Columbus. He is the couples third child after daughters Lily, 6, and Annabelle, 4.
Shortly after Max was born, Thomas remembers noticing a crease in Maxs lip and asking doctors about it. Maxs pediatrician, Dr. Kathryn Cheek, told the Gristinas it was indeed a minor cleft lip. She suggested they wait to see if it developed into anything that required surgery perhaps a cleft lip and palate, which is treatable.
A cleft is an opening or split, which can occur in the lip and palate, or roof of the mouth. It occurs when mouth tissue doesnt develop and join completely before birth. Cleft lip and palate are among the most common birth defects and affect about 1 in 700 newborns in the U.S. every year, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Babies and children who are affected can experience feeding and speech difficulties, as well as dental problems and frequent ear infections. The causes are not clear, but some studies suggest genes and environmental factors may play a role, according the March of Dimes. Difficult wait
Maxs father said waiting to see if his sons lip crease would develop was difficult. The family had noticed other oral defects as well: Maxs uvula, the small ball-like tissue that dangles above the back of the tongue, was split into two. Also, the membrane connecting the bottom of his tongue to the bottom of his mouth extended to the tip of Maxs tongue. The latter was responsible for Maxs tongue-tie which occurs more frequently in babies with oral birth defects like cleft lip and palate.
In Maxs first few months, he also experienced some regurgitation of his food through his nose another common symptom of the condition.
Thomas wanted answers, but he knew he couldnt get them until Max was a bit older. If Max indeed had a cleft palate, he would have to wait until he was at least 1 ½ to undergo an operation, Thomas said.
Its frustrating, but I knew I did the right thing for him, he said.
During Maxs annual checkup in August, Cheek referred the Gristinas to a pediatric-trained surgeon at Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta. It was Dr. Fernando Burstein, a pediatric plastic surgeon, who told the couple Max indeed had cleft lip and palate and would have to undergo surgery under sedation if they wanted it repaired.
If left untreated, Maxs nose could have grown crooked and flat, Thomas said. Also, if his tongue had not been released, he would not have been able to speak correctly, Joanne added.
Little Max went in for surgery on Oct. 22. The couple said it was a very nerve-wracking experience.
That was the worst part, Thomas said.
It was very stressful, Joanne added.
The Gristinas agreed to have Max undergo other procedures to correct additional birth defects. During the 2½-hour operation, an ear, nose and throat surgeon inserted ear tubes into Maxs ears to prevent future speech problems. A urologist also repaired an issue with Maxs circumcision. Finally, Dr. Burstein fixed Maxs cleft lip and palate.
Max went through recovery for about two weeks. The toddler is still adjusting today; mom Joanne said she sometimes sees him sticking out his tongue and experimenting with new sounds.
Its all new sensations for him, she said. He makes new sounds and I think hes catching up to where he should be.
Max and the family will pay another visit to Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta next year to see if he will have to undergo speech therapy.
The couple said they feel lucky they were able to get the referral for Max to get treated at Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta, which offers more than 30 pediatric specialties.
Thomas said he hopes their experience will inspire other parents to get their children checked out if they suspect any medical problems.
As a parent, you have to ask questions, he said. You need to be assertive for your child.
He also hopes the community realizes there are specialty resources available and local doctors can make those referrals.
(Childrens Healthcare) is up there in Atlanta and all they do is treat children, and Columbus has strong ties to that hospital, he said.
As for Max, Thomas said he is just fine after such a big surgery on a little boy. He hasnt been able to form words just yet, but the Gristinas feel he is on track to do so.
Hes a very happy, adventurous boy, Thomas said. Hes unfazed by this whole thing. Im grateful for that.

Police say a skull and some bones have been found at the site of a suburban Richmond mall that's being demolished, but they say the remains may be from an old burial site.
Chesterfield police say contractors discovered the remains when they were digging six to eight feet into the ground at the old Cloverleaf mall site on Tuesday.
Experts told WTVR that authorities will soon start taking a look at cold cases to see if there is a match to the remains.
The Richmond-based CBS affiliate reports the area where the remains were found was used as farmland decades ago, which leads investigators to think the discovery could be from unknown or unmarked family graves on the site.
Crews tore down the mall last month to make way for a 123,000-square-foot Kroger anchor store expected to open later this year.

The Norman Transcript
SULPHUR — Chickasaw Nation officials cut the ribbon and opened the Artesian Hotel, an 81-room boutique hotel, casino and spa that follows some of the architecture of a 1906 hotel that was one of the state's top tourist attractions and one-time social epicenter of southern Oklahoma.
Hundreds of guests waited outside and then streamed into the four-story, 140,000 square foot hotel, casino and shops built on the site of the original Artesian, just outside the gates of the Chickasaw National Recreation Area. It's also a short distance from the public park and springs where travelers come to bottle and take home the mineral water that locals say has healing powers.
The original Artesian Hotel burned to the ground in January 1962. A Chickasaw Motor Hotel was built on the site and the Chickasaws purchased the bankrupt hotel in 1972. It was the first business owned and operated by the tribe which now operates 60 businesses with about 12,000 employees.
Besides guest rooms, the new hotel features, a traditional bathhouse, casino, banquet room, indoor-outdoor pool, fitness center, spa, retail shops and restaurants. It employs 250 tribal and non-tribal members. The casino features 271 electronic games, Blackjack, three Card Poker and Ultimate Texas Hold 'Em.
"This new hotel is designed to pay tribute to the past while celebrating the future," said Chickasaw Gov. Bill Anoatubby. "More than 100 years ago, the Artesian served as a destination for thousands of tourists who flocked to this area for the natural beauty and refreshing waters of the springs and streams. Looking at the elegant exterior takes you back to the days when the governor of Oklahoma would spend his summers here and actors such as Dale Evans, Roy Rogers and John Wayne came to the Artesian to enjoy the unique combination of luxury and small town charm."
Ground was broken on the hotel in 2010. It follows construction a few miles west of the Chickasaw Cultural Center in Davis and the Chickasaw Nation Welcome Center at I-35 Exit 55.
Nick Starns, hotel general manager, said The Artesian features nine room types and a large lobby on each of the three floors with guest rooms. He formerly worked at the Chickasaw's WinStar World Casino Hotel in Thackerville.
"This is truly a unique property," Starns said, noting the historic photographs, Chickasaw artwork, tin ceilings, lobby columns and wide hallways. "This has a feel of the past with lots of amenities."
Those amenities include The Sole'renity Spa which features whirlpool baths, manicure and pedicure services, private and couples massage therapy rooms, separate male and female dressing rooms and lounges. Little Soles is the children's special event area with spa, catering and entertainment packages.
Retail shops include Bedre' Cafe, Chickasaw Tobacco Store, Essentials, Little Soles, Luxe at The Artesian, Pinkitzel, Smith's Okie Twister and The Woodland Emporium.

2013 and earlier Nissan Maxima Lease Questions
You certainly have done your research, carz. The 3 month pull-ahead and the loyalty cash that you mentioned are correct. I believe that the $1,800 that you mentioned is actually $1,750, but close enough .
NMAC's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39-month lease of a 2013 Maxima SV Sport with 15,000 miles per year are .00024 and 54%.
Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
I have a 2010 base model SV,, put 2000 down to cover taxes, fees etc(should have not paid 0.00), it was my first lease so maybe they took advantage,, my question how much should I be paying for a 2013 sv with navigation,,,I really don't understand the whole residuel thing,so just need a number average when I go in to negotiate,,Ty,,live in NYC and pay currently 382.00 way too much in my opinion
rcmercer Posts: 1Thanks for your help with these questions.
Currently lease a 2011 S with cold and monitor; I am getting close to my miles with still 12 mos to go; I am considering turning this car in for a new Maxima lease.
If Nissan is offering $4000 in incentives/cash back on 2012 models, does this apply to both sales and leases, or only on sales? My dealer claims the $4k only applies to sales, and the lease is $2K. True?
What are the money factors and residual values for April 2013?
Do I calculate the res value based on the sticker, or the discounted price (see below)?
If a dealer is willing to part with a 2012 SV for $34K (they said this discount from $41K included all incentives etc), will they or Nissan MAC lease the car on this basis? The numbers I am getting on a lease don't compute, even when I account for the 9 payments still owed (Nissan will forgive 3 payments).
Thanks again.
Hey carz,,did u go back? And if so was that 339.00 a month for the sport package accurate?, I'm paying 383.00 for a 2010 base model (2000 down)and I have to turn it in soon,,it was my first lease so I feel I was taken advantage of,,this time I'm trying to do some research before going in. Ty
Hi happi028. If you provide me with the MSRP and dealer invoice price of the exact Maxima that you are interested in I would be happy to work up a sample payment on it for you. You can find that pricing data over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Hi rcmercer. Unfortunately, the $4,000 only applies to cash purchases. There is only $1,000 available on leases of this car...plus another $1,000 since you are a current lessee for a total of two grand.
Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp.'s April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 Maxima SV Base with 15,000 miles per year are .00024 and 56% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
Vehicles' residual values are based upon a percentage of their full MSRPs, including the destination charge and the MSRPs of any options that can be residualized.
It's getting pretty late in the model year to lease a 2012 model. You definitely should take a look at the 2013 Maxima as well. There might not be much of a difference between the payment for a '13 and a '12 at this point.
Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
That $339.00 as it turns out was a mistake on the dealers part. So needless to say I did not get that price. I had 6 payments left on my car and the pull a head program came out. It is still in effect till April 30, 2013. That means that Nissan will wipout 3 payments and throw in $1000 incentive towards a new Nissan lease. The dealer re-did the lease and ended up at $355.00 (includes tax) plus the usual 1st month, DMV, taxes down ($1000-1200) The dealer would not payoff the 3 reamining lease payments so I assume that was in the $355.00 The car was the SV Sport, floor mats and splash guards (sticker $39,990). I have a feeling if you wait till July (July 4th sales)you may see some really good deals out there.
The story has an interesting turn of events. I actually ended up with a Infiniti G37X with premium pkg, floor mats, trunk mat, lighted kick plates, and 1st aid kit. The lease is 39 months for less money $344.00 p/m $1360.00 which includes all the usual fees, taxes etc (sticker $43,000). The Infiniti dealer actually bought the car from Nssan. I just got payoff letter in the mail.
galante Posts: 1hey i got burned on my first lease also, can you let me know what these numbers should be?
2013 Nissan Maxima SV Premium Tech, and navigation selling price ($31,500) tier 1 credit 10k miles a year based on what you said money .00024? factor? residual? 54%?
what should 24month and 36 monmth lease payments be? really need to know this thank you so much i apreciate it. oh im paying taxes up front out of pocket
Hi happi028. Nissan is currently providing a $1,000 cash incentive on leases of this car in your area. If I was in the market for a 2013 Maxima right now, I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice minus this incentive. You can find this car's invoice price over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
At the time I was shopping I was looking for a SV with sport package. The cars with floor mats and splash guards came out to $39,990. Interesting development from Nissan, they reduced the price of the car (Maximas) so now the sticker is about $37,500!!! There is also a $2350.00 lease incentive for that version (w/o nav) and if you are getting out of a Nissan into another you can get another $1000 loyalty incentive. So my guess is you can get the SV Sport for around $340.00 maybe less, plus first payment, taxes included.
I currently lease a 2010 Maxima SV, lease expires end of November. Here's their latest offer by mail:
1. Waive up to 3 months payments on existing lease
2. $1500 Lease Loyalty Cash Back
3. Up to $500 in wear-and-use charges
What's not clear to me is what other incentives are currently offered. For example, is the $3050 tech package rebate still valid on top of the above? Other cash back offers?
laxsox Posts: 3Hi! Is anyone familiar with the going lease rates for a 2013 Maxima SV Sport in Java Metallic or Metallic Slate in Suffolk County, NY? I'm a current leasee of a 2010 Maxima that matures in about 30 days and I'd like to, ideally, lease a new Maxima ASAP! What is the best money rate, selling $, residual, incentives, etc. with $0 down, taxes and fees rolled in, for a 36 or 39 month lease with 12,000 miles? I appreciate your help in advance!
