Abutters of the planned retail complex at the former Polaroid site loudly denounced the project during a Jan. 24 public meeting saying blasting at the site was causing damage to their homes.
Blasting company officials, however, said they are operating within the laws.
The brouhaha emerged during a Thursday, Jan. 24 meeting with project officials for the complex, currently known as 1265 Main St. The project will span 280,000 square feet with 100,000 square feet of office space. Construction at the site is slated to begin in May or June, according to J & Co. Project Manager Rick Vallarelli. Developers previously said they expect phase one of the build out, including the planned Market Basket, will partially open by the end of 2013.
As with many large projects, however, timelines for completion can change.
To date, have been announced as tenants for the site.
- Several project abutters angrily complained about recent rock blasting at the site, with one man claiming a blast had knocked a part of his ceiling to the floor, nearly hitting him. He said project officials are not giving him enough advance notice before blasts and that they were interrupting his lunch.
- "You are driving me crazy. You're killing me here. Stop it already," the man said without identifying himself. He also claimed the blasting company, Maine Drilling & Blasting, had not been following blasting regulations.
- Several other residents mentioned they had spotted cracks or other damage in their homes.
- A Maine Drilling & Blasting official told the audience the company had monitors at the site that they had not cited the project for violating blasting rules. The representative offered to settle disputes and potential damages with abutters individually.
- Blasting methods could be altered to shorten the length of the explosions but that would mean more blasting overall, the MDB official explained.
- Most of the blasting at the site should be done within six weeks, according to the MDB representative.
- Another project abutter, Jennifer Patton, demanded the developers establish a mitigation fund to cover the costs of any damage caused by construction. She mentioned her office nearby has dirty water and that she was worried about the foundation in her home. Project officials offered to meet with her individually.
UPDATES (Sources: Project engineer Jim Lamp of J & Co., Rick Vallarelli, J & Co. project manager, Kevin Dandrade, traffic engineer, TEC.)
- A Verizon store will be coming to the store, but project officials offered no other details on it.
- Site work update: Workers are currently completing site work for the Market Basket after spending months moving electrical transmission lines.
- Traffic plans: This spring, developers will begin work to widen Main Street (Route 20) in the area surrounding the site. They also plan to install new traffic signals and upgrade the current ones at Bear Hill Road and Stow Street. Pedestrian and sidewalk upgrades will also be done.
- Traffic plans: Work to alter the two on/off ramps on Route 128 will include widening the northbound off-ramp to better push traffic onto Main Street. On the southbound side, changes will include widening the ramp to slow traffic before they get on the ramp.
- The one former Polaroid building still standing could serve as an office building at the site, but no tenant has yet been signed.
- Project officials showed renderings of what the site could look like when it's completed. They showed a "town green" park along with outdoor seating for the restaurants.

POTSDAM SUNY Potsdam inducted three players and two teams into the Bears Hall of Fame on Saturday.
Bears hockey standout Chris Lee, who graduated in 2004 and went on to play professionally, headed the individuals, which also included basketball player Edane Barton and lacrosse player Chris Mele.
The 1972-73 wrestling team and the 1995-96 mens hockey team also were inducted.
Lee, a native of MacTier, Ontario, is 10th all-time in program history with 115 points. He won SUNYAC Player of the Year honors in 2004. The former American Hockey League and East Coast Hockey League player competed in Sweden last season.
Barton is in the top 10 in scoring and rebounding on Potsdams all-time basketball list. Barton, from Spring Valley, played on two SUNYAC championship teams, being named MVP each time.
Mele, who is from Albany, scored 167 points in his career, which is fourth all-time in Bears history. His 125 goals are second all-time. He was captain for the Bears over two seasons.
The 1995-96 mens hockey team is the only Potsdam squad to win the SUNYAC championship. Under coach Ed Seney, the Bears went 18-10-2 and beat Oswego and Plattsburgh in the playoffs. The 1972-73 wrestling team won the SUNYAC Championship during the first year of Maxcy Hall. Under coach Neil Johnson, Potsdam went 12-1 in dual meets.

This image provided by NASA shows a portion of the International Space Station photographed by a space walking astronaut during the STS-128 mission's second session of extravehicular activity Thursday Sept. 3, 2009 as construction and maintenance continue on the station.
Space shuttle Discovery is about to become a galactic moving van.
Astronauts on board the international space station are almost done filling an Italian-built cylinder with nearly a ton of trash, surplus gear and completed science experiments to take back to Earth on Discovery, The Associated Press reported.
On Monday, the cylinder will be loaded on board the shuttle, which will return to Kennedy Space Center on Thursday.
"All in all, it's been a very successful mission," astronaut Danny Olivas said of his three spacewalks to replace the space station's ammonia coolant system and perform other maintenance tasks. "Everybody here is in good spirits, and we are ready to finish up here and come home."

Dear Editor,
About 18 worths ago I went to City Hall to ask if they could do something about a house on South Elm. The trash and odor around it was getting unbearable.
Each time I went they promised to take care of it. Nothing happened!
As the months wore on it got worse, and back to City Hall I'd go. Still nothing! I did that for at least 18 months.
Finally I went to the mayor's office. Nothing was done from there either.
Then the rats took the place over, and the trash blew into all the neighbors' yards. It became a fire hazard and a health problem.
It was suggested to me to go to the county assessor's office and find out who owns the property. They gave me the name, address and phone number and suggested I take it to the police station. So I did.
When I drove up Officer Scott McGaha was out front. I explained to him what was going on and how long I had been trying to get something done.
He just took the paper that I had gotten from the assessor's office and said, "I'll take care of it."
I left there and went to the store, which took me about 30 minutes, and by the time I got home someone was already there cleaning it up. The whole neighborhood was thankful.
Thanks again Officer McGaha for doing in 30 minutes what City Hall and the mayor's office couldn't do in 18 months.

The nationwide peanut butter recall is quickly expanding and a variety of nut products have now been added to the list — from chews and cookies to tahini and gelato.
Responding to what it called a "fast-moving outbreak" of salmonella-caused sickness in at least 19 states, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced Friday that the company recall of nut butter products made by Sunland Inc. and sold under many labels has more than doubled to at least 240 products.
The recall list includes a variety of Sunland peanut butter products as well as almond butter, cashew butter, tahini, and roasted blanched peanut products. Other companies have alerted the FDA about related recalls affecting various nut and seed products.
The following brands have items on the recall list:Sunland Inc. Related Recalls American Choice
Archer Farms
Arrowhead Mills
Cadia All Natural
Earth Balance
Fresh & Easy
Harry & David
Multiple Organics
Natural Value
Naturally More
Open Nature

Whole Foods Market
Xan Confections
Not every container of the products in the list available from the FDA and from Sunland is affected. It depends on the batch, as shown by the UPC or SKU numbers. Those numbers can be found on the recall lists and on product containers.
The lists from the FDA and Sunland, however, may not contain all the recalled products. The Talenti Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Gelato, for example, does not appear on either of those lists. The Sacramento Bee on Saturday published a release from PR Newswire saying that the one-pint container of this gelato – with UPC code 1 86852 00094 5 printed on the back of the container and "Best By" date range of 3/21/13 through 3/26/14 printed on the bottom of the container – is being recalled by the company.
The recall affects products made at the Sunland facility in Portales, New Mexico, between March 1, 2010 and September 24, 2012, the FDA said.
Sunland has established a 24-hour, toll-free line that customers can use to contact the company for information about the recall: 1-866-837-1018.
The outbreak strain – Salmonella Bredeney – was identified by the Washington State Department of Agriculture laboratory in a jar of Trader Joe's Valencia Creamy Peanut Butter collected from the home of one of 35 patients reported infected so far, the FDA said.
Trader Joe's has posted a notice to customers about the recall on its website.
The voluntary recalls are being conducted by the companies involved.
The recall effort began Sept. 23 when the FDA and the federal Centers for Disease Control briefed Sunland on their findings. On the evening of the next day, Sept. 24, Sunland expanded the recall to about 100 products, the FDA said. The company expanded the list to 240 on Thursday.
"Consumers should not eat the recalled products," the FDA said. "This is especially important for children under the age of 5 years, elderly adults, and people with weak immune systems."
Symptoms of salmonella infection include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps occurring 12-72 hours after infection, with the illness usually lasting between four and seven days, according to the FDA. Most people recover without treatment, but some patients can develop severe complications.
Customers with affected products within the current shelf life, or "Best-if-used-by" dates, should return them to wherever they were purchased for a refund or discard them, the FDA said. Those past their shelf life should be discarded.
The FDA and CDC are continuing their investigations with cooperation from several state health departments.

Traverse City Record-Eagle
---- — TRAVERSE CITY — A grade A defensive effort led to Gaylord's first girls basketball Class A district title in school history on Friday.
The Blue Devils earned the crown with a 31-26 overtime victory over host Traverse City West, holding the Titans to three points in the game's final 8:54.
Despite giving up a lot of size to West's front line, Gaylord was able to stymie the Titans for stretches and capitalize at the right time, outscoring West 5-0 in overtime.
"We haven't won districts in I don't even know how long," said senior guard Mackenzie Edwards, who led the Devils with 15 points. "I never thought we'd make it this far and we did. I'm really excited."
The Blue Devils (13-9) face undefeated Grand Haven in regionals Tuesday back at TC West. The Bucs are the reigning Class A state champions, and defeated Muskegon 52-33 to win their district.
"We're playing on house money," Blue Devils coach Frank Hamilla said. "We won our district and now we're going to go and give it all we've got in regionals and see what happens."
West's Kiley Kreple knocked down a 3-pointer from the right wing at the buzzer to send the game into overtime.
"We thought that they thought that we would not go to her," Titans coach Dave Ginsberg said. "So we said, 'Find her, lob the ball over to her.'"
Kreple received the long, cross-court inbounds pass, looked down to make sure her feet were behind the 3-point line and launched a triple that caught nothing but net and sent the game into an extra session.
"We just had to forget about it and go on to overtime," said Edwards, who has accepted an offer to play at Lake Superior State University. "And we got the job done."
"They were just deflated," Hamilla said of his players after Kreple's buzzer-beater. "We said, 'Hey, we've got four more minutes to play. Let's get the lead right away and we'll be OK.'"
And the Blue Devils did just that. All five of the Blue Devils' overtime points came at the free throw line, with Simmons and Edwards hitting two each and Sarah Polena one.
Gaylord held West (10-13) without a score in the four-minute overtime, and hit 5 of 8 free throws in the stanza.
The Devils made the most of their time at the free throw line for the whole game, outscoring West 15-3 in that area and knocking down 15 of 22 foul shots. West was 3 for 6 at the stripe.
The teams split their regular-season matchups, with each winning on their home court.
"They're crafty, quick, clever, well-coached," Ginsberg said. "They just did a good job of keeping us out of scoring spots. We just made a lot of bad judgments. We really didn't make good decisions at key points of that game. Our defense was terrific. They hurt us over there the last time we played them. And we did a much better job on them (this time)."
Both teams started slow, with Gaylord holding a 4-2 lead after one quarter. The Devils took a 10-4 lead on two Lauren Hintz free throws before the Titans responded with an 8-0 run to lead 14-10 and eventually took a 16-12 lead into halftime.
"That's a trademark of West," Hamilla said. "Even when (Patti) Tibaldi was coach, they played great defense. And it's carried over with coach Ginsburg. You know it was going to be a struggle and it would be in the 30s. That's what Traverse City West wanted. We wanted to try to pick up the tempo a little, but they do such a nice job on possessions of taking time off the clock. We did what we had to do — and fortunately we were able to get the victory."
West took a 21-19 lead into the final quarter of regulation, as Katie Placek's long jumper put West up.
"We tried to spread the floor," Hamilla said. "They were doing such a good job of doubling Mac when she got the ball. But truthfully, we won the game on the defensive end."
Prior to Kreple's game-tying three, West's only field goal of the fourth quarter was a long two-pointer by Lauren Ellison that was the first field goal by either team over three minutes into the fourth.
"Our defense helped a lot," Edwards said. "We were boxing out a lot and they weren't able to get second and third shots. That's what helped us win."
Placek led West with 11 points and nine rebounds, while Kreple finished with seven points.
Polena had eight points and seven steals for the Blue Devils, while Chelsea Fox led Gaylord in rebounding with five.

Kayak Tillamook supplies the boats, the paddles, PFD'S (Personal Flotation Device) and the expertise while you slip inside the cozy confines of a sea kayak that allows you to go "Paddling for Clamming."
Lead guide, Marc Hinz, said that all you need do is show up "dressed for the day," but he cautioned: "Wear anything but cotton! Our standard mantra is 'cotton kills' because it absorbs the water and holds it to next to your body, so it's bad news. Good news are the synthetics or even wool clothing."
We timed our visit across Nehalem Bay in Tillamook County during the last hour of the ebb tide.
"It's my favorite time of the tide and time of the year," noted Hintz. "There are more visible wildlife like eagles and elk and fewer people around so it fits together well for a unique adventure."
A slow moving outgoing tide eased our paddling from the Nehalem Bay County Boat Ramp (located just off Coastal Hwy 101 north of Wheeler, Oregon where you should be prepared to pay $3 for a parking permit) on a journey toward nearby inter-tidal mud flats.
Hinz said it was a good time of the tide to be on our adventure: "It's perfect – there's just a little bit of outgoing to help move us along. If it's going out really fast or coming in really fast it's harder to paddle against the current. On this sort of trip you really want the bottom of the tide."
Our party traveled to the area at this particular time of the tide for good reason: we wanted to dig our dinner – really! We were after bay clams that most folks overlook or have never heard of called the Eastern Softshells.
As the name suggests, eastern softshell clams are not a native clam species. The bivalve was introduced to Oregon coastal estuaries more than a century ago to jump-start a commercial shellfish industry.
Mitch Vance, a shellfish biologist with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, said that the eastern softshell occupies a unique habitat niche that doesn't compete with the more popular bay clam species like cockle, steamer, blue or quahog clams.
As a result and put simply, the eastern softshell doesn't get a lot of pressure.
The lack of popularity may be the reason for a generous 36-clam daily limit.
That – plus the fact that digging the clams takes effort – and – you should be ready to get dirty. You see, the clams live in a soft sandy, gravelly and even muddy substrate and you must dig down a foot and a half to reach them.
My favorite technique is to dig a large hole and then excavate the sides of the hole outward. The technique reveals the clams where they live.
If you follow the technique you can easily pick the clams off the sides of the ever-growing hole.
Be prepared to get dirty in the doing of the deed and yet - for me, it's sort of activity that makes you feel like a kid again!
Vance added that eastern softshell clams can be dug up and down the Oregon coast: "Tillamook Bay, Netarts Bay, down to Yaquina and Coos Bays are all really productive for bay clams."
Remember that all clammers – 14 years and older - must have an ODFW shellfish harvest license. Each clammer must bring a container for their catch too.
"Everyone should dig their own clams," added Vance. "And keep them in their own containers. That way we avoid one person digging clams for others. Each person should take part in the recreation."
In addition, if you choose to paddle your own canoe or kayak, remember that you must purchase/carry an Oregon Aquatic Invasives Species Permit.
The permit is required for boats 10' long and longer.
The annual permits are for sale through ODFW License agents or from their website. One and two-year Tyvek tags are available through the Oregon State Marine Board. An online order form is also available.
"The softshell clams reach 4 inches in length and the digging of the clams is really just the start. For me, the best part of the adventure takes place in the kitchen where I enjoy cooking the catch even more.
A flick of a sharp knife blade opens the clam shell and then the meat is rinsed off.I also cut away and clean off the clam's stomach and its contents. Most of the meat in an eastern softshell clam is found in the neck. I like to use the knife blade to open up the clam neck, so the entire affair lies flat on a plate.
In my kitchen, the clam meat gets a bath of flour – then an egg wash and then another bath of cracker crumbs before it goes into the hot oiled frying pan – I prefer olive or vegetable oil.
Please don't cook the clam more than a minute per side for there's nothing worse than an overcooked clam.
The cooking of the catch rounds out the day-long adventure – one that's waiting for you in an Oregon estuary this spring and summer.
The Oregon Department of Fish and wildlife offers an online shellfish map that locates bay clam beds throughout the state's coastal estuaries – it's a valuable resource for novice or experienced clammers alike.
"It's really fun for families to go clam digging," said Vance. "It's easy to do, not a ton of gear required and it's something kids can do too. Plus, you get to eat what you catch!"
Eastern softshell clams
eggs (beaten)
bread crumbs, panko or cracker crumbs
salt & pepper
vegetable or olive oil
After removing the clam necks from the shell, peel off the outer brown skin and cut off the black tip. Then "butterfly" the neck so it lays out flat.
Coat the pieces in flour, egg, then bread crumbs (panko or cracker crumbs work well too) and lightly salt and pepper if desired.
Heat oil in a medium skillet until hot enough to fry. Cook clam until golden brown - just a minute or less or they quickly become chewy.

JOPLIN, Mo. —
Cookie Estrada told the Joplin City Council on Monday night that he finds himself stuck between a rock and a hard place.
He wants to support the proposed $40 million Joplin Commons project that is part of a $130 million tornado recovery plan. But, as the chief executive officer of the Joplin Family YMCA, he has to protect the mission and interests of the 125-year-old Joplin institution he runs. That's why he asked the city to work with the Y and try to incorporate its future into Joplin's plan.
The Joplin Commons would be a duplication of the services that the Y offers in Joplin as far as fitness and recreation.
"We have to look at that duplication hoping to find a niche to work together so that it doesn't harm the organizations" like the Y and any others that may be affected by the idea, Estrada told the council. "I'm here to support the Commons, but you have to take care of those entities that have been here for a long time. Collaboration is the key."
The recovery plan would be funded in large part by $113 million in federal grant money. A public hearing was conducted Monday night on the initial proposal for spending that money, which includes the Joplin Commons. The Commons would include an indoor pool suitable for competition swimming, a fitness center, a senior citizens center, indoor quarters for basketball, volleyball and soccer suitable for tournament play, a Little League complex, and a skate park.
"We have had three meetings with the Y to discuss concerns and how it relates to their plan," said City Manager Mark Rohr. Those city staff discussions with the Y have included the question of whether there is a way to collaborate on the Commons project. Rohr said the project addresses all needs and wants of the community that have been expressed at a number of public meetings. He said that while he knows that a fitness center would compete with the Y, it is needed to generate revenue to subsidize the indoor pool operations.
"I think there is a possibility that we serve different markets," Rohr said.
Councilman Jack Golden said he has worked with the Y for years, and that the city continues to need such operations.
Councilman Mike Woolston asked that if the council agreed to move forward with submitting the plan to the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, which allocated the grant money, there would be a chance to address concerns of groups such as the Y and the Little League.
Council members also spoke about receiving a groundswell of public opposition to a proposal to reconfigure part of East 20th Street into fewer and narrower traffic lanes in order to do streetscaping. Part of the grant money is proposed for construction of that project.
Rohr said at this point the city is presenting a concept, and details of that concept are still to be developed.
City Planner Troy Bolander said a final report on the public input regarding the 20th Street project would be available in September, and that residents are clear that they do not want the traffic capacity of the street reduced.
In other business, about 20 residents of a neighborhood near the old Joplin Stockyards property on Newman Road opposed or expressed concerns about rezoning part of that land for construction of apartments.
The developer, in response, told the council that he had redrawn the plans to ensure that a buffer of trees and natural growth 40 feet wide would remain between the apartment buildings and the single-family homes south of the property.
Mayor Pro Tem Bill Scearce won an agreement to change the zoning to multifamily residential rather than commercial and to make it a planned district so that building plans would have to be approved by the city in order to protect the neighborhood buffer.
The council approved the sale of $13 million in bonds from the new tax increment financing district created for tornado recovery. Leslie Haase, the city finance director, said $5 million of that would be used to pay the city's matching share for the construction of a new Joplin Public Library project at 20th Street and Connecticut Avenue. The bonds also would repay an $8 million loan obtained for the Joplin Redevelopment Corp. to buy land for some of the projects, including the library, advanced by the contracted master developer.
The council also:
• Approved rezoning and the vacation of Old Main Street Road at 32nd Street for construction of a new CVS Pharmacy.
• Agreed to vacate old plats for 34th Street and Wisconsin Avenue in the Park Plaza Mobile Home Estates.
• Gave informal consent to proceed with the possibility of putting a sales use tax on the November ballot to replace a city sales tax that had been collected on vehicle sales and other large purchases made out of state before the Missouri Supreme Court invalidated that type of tax by cities and counties.
Tie vote
THE CITY COUNCIL TIED 4-4 in an informal vote on whether to institute a finance committee to advise the council. Councilman Benjamin Rosenberg was absent. The matter will be taken up again when all council members are present, the panel decided.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch)—U.S. stock-index futures on Monday tilted slightly higher in limited trade, with U.S. markets shut for Presidents Day; European shares and industrial metals fell on concerns about the global economy, in particular the euro zone, with Italian elections adding to investor uncertainty.
The yen /quotes/zigman/4868099/realtime/sampled USDJPY +0.0007% continued its decline against other currencies, including the U.S. dollar, after leaders from the world's 20 largest economies vowed not to devalue their currencies to bolster exports and bypassed criticizing Japan for indicating its expansionist monetary policies would continue.
Worries about an unclear outcome in Italian elections held Sunday and Monday hit European equities, with yields on Italy's 10-year government notes climbing above 4%.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 6 points to 13,954. Those for the Standard & Poor's 500 gained nearly 1 point to 1,517.90. Futures for the Nasdaq 100 rose 3.25 points to 2,764.50.
Crude futures for March delivery fell 31 cents to $95.56 a barrel in electronic trade in New York. The more active April contract declined 34 cents to $96.07 a barrel.
And, with a deadline in the battle over the U.S. budget just 11 days away, equity investors are considering whether likely federal spending cuts will spark a market correction from multiyear highs.
March 1 is when $85 billion in reductions to defense and domestic programs through the fiscal year ending Sept. 30 go into effect unless congressional leaders and the White House cut a deal to replace the automatic cuts.
Part of a larger program known as sequestration, the cuts aim to trim federal spending by roughly $1 trillion over nine years.
Read Political Watch: Not all 'sequester' cuts would hit at same time.
We've been inviting our clients to simply expect volatility, thinking you could see 100-point swings. But it's not there.
Tim Speiss, EisnerAmper
Economists have warned the spending reductions will dent growth in the world's largest economy. Treasury Secretary-nominee Jack Lew last week in Senate testimony said the automatic budget cuts "would impose self-inflicted wounds to the recovery and put far too many jobs and businesses at risk."
Read more on Treasury secretary-nominee Lew's hearing.
Senate Democrats late last week proposed a $110 billion plan to postpone federal cuts that would include tax hikes that Republicans have said they would not go along with.
With the Senate now in recess until Feb. 25, and with Democrats and Republicans far from agreeing to a resolution, investors have been wondering if the lack of clarity from Washington will trigger a sharp pullback in U.S. stocks.

Heads of NFL, Big Ten networks to testify on cable proposal
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Both sides of the ongoing conflict between cable providers and the NFL and Big Ten networks will line up Thursday in Madison.
They are appearing at a public hearing before a state Senate committee on a proposal designed to resolve the dispute.
Wisconsin and a handful of other states think that leading both sides to arbitration is the way to solve the problem. Fans across the country have been left angry and confused when key games are on the networks and not carried by major cable companies.
The heads of both the NFL and Big Ten networks, along with a vice president of the Green Bay Packers, plan to testify in support of the bill. The head of the Wisconsin Cable Communications Association was going to speak against it.

2002 ABS and Brake Questions
Hello all, a new Yukon XL 4x4 owner from Sweden here.
It´s a 2002 storm grey metallic with leather interior.
It had only one owner (according to carfax) in NY for the 4 years it was in the States.
Here in Sweden it has had 5 plus one dealership (probably the one that imported it).
112000 mls on it, and running very smooth, when idling I have to watch the rpm´s now and then to see if it actually runs.
Only things for now are the missing foglights (switch is there), and the brake light on when driving (not flashing, no ABS light).
Does the ABS light come on when you turn on the ignition?
Mine doesn´t, so it could be a burnt bulb (if it´s a bulb/led?).
Brakes work normal, and so does the parking brake (flashing brake light wich becomes steady when you release the parking brake).
One came on another forum that it could be an ABS controller/block at the front axle that has a wire or connector that might be going out, I will have to check that, once I figure out where to look.
I´ll post some pics, once I figure out how to, it´s not the same on the other forum... or you check it out there.

NORMAN — Norman High School students went wild and cheered on Homecoming King and Queen Jake Pyle and Maggie Marcum as they presented Dr. John Otto, a local veterinarian, with a check for more than $4,000 to benefit the Friends for Folks program at the school pep assembly on Friday.
After Norman High students viewed the informational video, "Dogs of Lexington," last spring, the student government association wanted to help Friends for Folks, a program that brings
students, therapy dogs and the state correctional program together. Marcum explained that every year all the homecoming nominees compete to raise funds for a good cause.
"We sell baked goods and it's a lot of fun," Marcum said. "My psychology teacher, Dr. Hemphill, brought the program to my attention. I'm glad we could help!"
Inmates at Lexington Correctional Center in Friends for Folks are assigned to a dog to train. The inmate can learn the benefits of patience, empathy, being persistent and being responsible with another living thing. The inmate also gets to experience unconditional love and what it feels like to help others. Once the dogs are trained, they are placed with forever families who benefit by being able to adopt a dog that is well-trained and well-socialized. Many of the dogs go on to be therapy dogs and are used in schools and veterans' centers.
Dr. Otto said the funds donated by Norman High would go to buying a washer and dryer as well as increasing the number of dogs in the program from 10 to 15.
The Friends for Folks program is currently working with three dogs to be taken to Mabel Bassett Correctional Center in McLoud. Otto said the program plans to expand to Mabel Bassett by January.
"We had about 400 women apply for three spots," Otto said.
A $10,000 grant from the Harris Foundation will fund the filming of a new documentary to be titled "Bassett Tales" that will focus on how to make a program like Friends for Folks. Otto also hopes to expand the use of dogs who have completed the program to mental health facilities.

Spokane Chiefs coach Don Nachbaur spent a good part of Sunday preparing for Team WHLs games this week against Team Russia during the Subway Super Series.
I had to put the final touches on it, said Nachbaur, who will coach Team WHL. They are good. Nineteen of their guys are from their summer team. They are loaded. What we saw in the summer is they have size, they skate well and they are skilled, lines one through four. Their power play and their penalty kill has been good, as well. They have some high-end talent.
This marks the 10th year of the series with the Russians. The Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and the Ontario Hockey League split their games with the Russians to open the series. Team WHL will play the Russians tonight at Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Thursday in Victoria, British Columbia. The Canadian Hockey League has won eight of the nine series played to date.
Tri-City Americans goalie Eric Comrie will be on the Team WHL roster for both games. He is one of three 17-year-old players on the team, including forwards Curtis Lazar of the Edmonton Oil Kings and Sam Reinhart of the Kootenay Ice.
Its just part of the process and getting experience, Nachbaur said of the youngsters. This is where you can get a look for the World Juniors.
Comrie is the sixth Americans player named to a Team WHL roster for the event. He joins former Tri-City forward Brendan Shinnimin, goalies Chet Pickard and Carey Price, and defensemen Logan Stephenson and Shawn Belle.
It is going to be an unreal experience, Comrie said. I get to watch Laurent Brossoit, one of the top goalies in the Western Hockey League, on how he prepares for a game. I get to meet some new guys, and I have some friends there. And I get to watch Russian goaltender Andrei Vasilevski, who is a first-round NHL draft pick. He has been fantastic his whole career.
Comrie will share time in net with Edmontons Brossoit. Nachbaur said he is confident in both, and that both will be challenged.
They both are on the national radar, and it is up to them to showcase themselves, Nachbaur said. They wont be seeing muffins like they do in the Western Hockey League. The Russians have made the (OHL) and the (QMJHL) goalies look silly at times. It will be a good test for our goalies. These guys are coming from winning programs, and theres a lot to be said for that.
Comrie knows Brossoit has more experience, and hes willing to do what is best for the team.
Of course I always want to get in net and compete and play, Comrie said. But if I dont get in, theres the wealth of knowledge I can bring back to the team and myself. Im just excited to go there and learn. Ill be a rookie again. It will be fun.
He also looks forward to playing for Nachbaur.
I lived with Adam (Hughesman) last year, and he told me all about him, how good of a coach he is, Comrie said. Its exciting to play for him. He is a great coach. Maybe I can learn a few things.
What hasnt been fun for Nachbaur is trying to match his team to the Russians. The talent might be there, but the size isnt.
If you look at our World Junior team from the summer, the strength of our team is our defense, Nachbaur said. Most have played on the U-18 team and have that experience. Where we dont match up is with their size up front. If we dont get it done up front, we have some defensemen that can get it done. We have to find ways to score.
Everything the Russians do has strength. They protect the puck well, and that will give us problems. They are very disciplined and make it hard in their end. They block pucks, finish checks, and they play to win. They play the right way.

Obama confronts challenges of reforming collection of Americans phone recordsPresident Obamas intention to end the governments controversial practice of amassing the phone records of millions of Americans faces a tangle of technical, logistical and political problems that defy ready solutions and are largely beyond the presidents control.Among the challenges is stiff resistance from phone companies that do not want to be told how long to hold their customers data if the government does not collect it, especially if that means longer than they do now.
The political challenges may be particularly daunting. The president says he wants to move the data out of the governments hands. That has positioned him between two extremes. At one end is an odd collection of tea party Republicans and civil liberties Democrats who want the government to end its bulk collection of Americans records, not just shift where the data are stored. At the other end are powerful lawmakers, including the chairmen of the intelligence committees, who have resisted any substantial changes.
And nothing will change. The program will just be secret again while everyone swears it doesn't happen.

Nothing of any note changed. The amount that the NSA can snoop is reduced by one tier. And there still isn't any one or any plan as to what will happen or who will be over the data already collected. AND there is no immediate change at all. So carry on government, carry on. Useless. AND they are considering a 3rd party to guard the data? I don't trust the government to do it, why in the hell would I not think the 3rd party wouldn't be bought and paid for? Smoke and mirrors.Do not war for peace. If you must war, war for justice.

HGTV Message Boards
HGTV Design Star
final three...!?!
this should b intrsting... deciding between the three... i was surprised that anne was sent home cos i figured she would win it. now they will either go crazee brooks or try another black female designer.... and their shows haven't faired well on hgtv. tiffany has knocked it out of the ballpark a time or two and has the potential to do so very well... jerbal? he's okay but don't think he has the best of the group. sooooooooo..... brooks or tiffany and i think i will go with tiffany.
ltho brooks is showing up on facebook today
depends on how warped the producers are thinking
If I got to pick I would probably go with Jeribai just because we haven't had a male winner since Antonio. Tiffany could win and that would be okay too. Not a Brooks fan, if he were very talented maybe I could get over his crazy look but he's not that talented.
Since it has already been decided, what we think doesn't really matter. I think the judges will pick whoever HGTV wants them to pick.
I think it will probably be Jeribai, but don't take my word for it-I thought Brooks was going home this past week. He's not really very good on camera & I agree that I think it will be a man this year. J. is good looking and that is what HGTV seems to be going for, if you will notice their show lineup. Shall we take bets?
My apologies for my old swiss cheese brain - can't remember the name of little black gal who did so well last season and really should have won it! I was upset when Danielle won - not that I didn't like her but the other one had so much more talent and much better time management skills.
For this season I think Jeribai might win it but it's a tough toss up between him and Tiffany - either one could handle it, I think. Brooks? Well, I hope they learned their lesson about "different" with the tattooed wonderboy of a few seasons back. I'd be very upset if he won.
Doodles you're talking about Hilari, she was my favorite too. I was also disappointed that she didn't win Design Star All-Stars. I can't remember the name of the woman who won that, she was my least favorite of the final three. Wait, I think it was Leslie. I never understood why she was there to begin with because I didn't think she had a big support base the year she was on the show, which I think was the year that Meg won.
I am still surprised at how short this season has been. I don't mind the 3 person final but I wish they started with more designers. Noticed in the sneak peak that they are bringing back some of the contestents, might be all of them. I was glad to see Tobin, I think he got sent home too soon and for the wrong reasons.This message has been edited. Last edited by: CorvetteLady,
Thank you!!! Yes it was Hilari - she should ahve won that and most definitely should have won that All-Stars thingy. Leslie's final was just plain awful.
Yes, this is a short season - if they'd stuck to what was working DS might have had a shot but they've butchered it, dumbed it down and just plain ruined it.
This is terrible concidering D.S. used to be one of my top five favorite programs, but here we are at the finale and I don't care who wins.
In the past I had wanted Dan Vickery and Karl Sponholz to win. Neither did, but I liked the format and continued watching.Contestants who did win like Emily Henderson and Meg filmed shows that didn't appeal to me personally.Last year when Danielle Colding won, then fell off the radar so quickly, I lost interest. Aparantly, for me, it has not returned.
I wonder if it was individual shows with a cash prize if it would be more interesting?
I agree Charles D! Whoever wins, I don't care, and I won't be watching their show. As short lived as it will apparently be.
Charles D, do you mean something along the lines of the White Box Challenge? And why don't they ever have that show on during prime time? It's the only show besides Flea Market Flip, that are new & I enjoy watching, but it's buried at 8 am?
I would watch if it's a show that is interesting, and I'm a big fan of Emily and Meg (especially her sidekick). They both have shows that actually design rooms, sometimes with vintage stuff, and that's exactly what I want. And to see them do projects with used things is also great.
The old saying "be careful what you wish for, cause you just might get it" applies here. In years past we complained that they were designers and should have carpenters and painters, etc. We didn't like the original judges, so all but Vern are no more. We wanted the judges to tell us why they chose whomever to go home from group challenges, and now they do exactly that. For some reason I think HGTV listened to us, and now we don't like it. The first shows were the best, but it could just be DS fatigue.
Watching total mediocrity, can easily fatigue any intelligent person.
So true Sy, it does seem a bit boring, doesn't it?. We also didn't like all the fighting and arguing over what to do in the design, so it appears they cut all that out as well.
I am glad Anne went home.her rooms always looked sloppy.She couldn't even make a bed!
I love brooks,he is my fav but I don't see them giving him a show.
I'm hoping Tiffany wins. Jerbai has always been pretty forgettable to me.

The Register-News
---- — MT. VERNON — Local employers are invited to have breakfast at the Armed Forces Reserve Center in thanks for their support of area soldiers during the Breakfast With The Boss event on May 9.
"Dr. Michael Ayres with the Illinois National Guard contacted us and wanted to thank our business community," said Brandon Bullard, executive director of the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce. "They wanted to host a breakfast at the Reserve Center to thank the businesses of the community for supporting and working with members of the Illinois National Guard."
The breakfast is free to all business owners, managers and members of the business community, and sponsored by the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve and by the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce. Catered by Bob Evans, the event will be held from 7 to 9 a.m. on May 9, with a program at 8 a.m. at the Armed Forces Reserve Center located on Shiloh Drive.
Guest speakers for the event include Bullard; Ayres, of the Illinois Committee, Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve; a National Guard/Reserve Unite presentation; and Military static displays.
According to SFC Justin Mix, Unit Readiness NCO of F Co., 634th BSB, those who attend may see weapons systems and individual soldier equipment set up on the drill floor, and if weather permits, two HMMWV's will be set up in front of the building. Each of the three National Guard units at the facility will have a representative available to explain their mission and what soldiers do on drill weekends and during the two week annual training. Tours of the facility will be available after the breakfast is over.
"For those who have not been in the new armory, this is a great way to see the fantastic facility," Bullard said. "The Illinois National Guard wants to touch base and make the connection with employers and business leaders in the community. They ask a lot of the business community and want to give back a little bit."
Those attending are asked to RSVP by 5 p.m. on Friday, May 3, so a correct count on food may be obtained. Reservations may be made by contacting Michaela SCattone at 242-5725.

The Valdosta Daily Times
The Valdosta State offense exploded for 25 runs on 27 hits, while the pitching staff threw a pair of no-hitters as the Blazers defeated Albany State 16-0 and 9-0 in non-conference softball action at the ASU Softball Field Tuesday afternoon.
With the two wins, Valdosta State improved to 11-1 on the season.
The Blazers scored early and often in the first game.
Courtney Albritton opened the game with an inside-the-park home run. Then VSU added seven more runs in the second. Hannah Strickland and Morgan Johnson delivered the big hits in the second inning. Strickland drove in two runs with a double, while Johnson hit a bases loaded double.
Valdosta State pushed its advantage to 13-0 in the third inning. Albritton and Karson King had run-scoring singles, while Fran Johnson hit a two-run double and Morgan Johnson added a sacrifice fly. Albritton drove in another run with a double, and Morgan Johnson added two more runs to the Blazers' total with a two-run double in the fourth.
Albany State's only base runners came in the third inning on a hit by pitch and an error, but a sacrifice bunt, a strikeout and a ground out ended the threat.
Valdosta State pitcher Kenzi Reed improved to 3-0 on the season. She allowed no hits and struck out four batters in her five innings of work.
The Golden Rams got runners on base earlier in game 2, but still had no success. A hit by pitch and a sacrifice bunt went for naught in the first inning, while a base on balls in the second was erased on a double play. ASU also got runners on in the third and fifth innings via walks, but neither runner advanced to second base.
Meanwhile, the VSU offense picked up where it left off in game 1. The Blazers scored two runs in the first on a King base hit and a Fran Johnson sacrifice fly.
Valdosta State added six unearned runs in the second, as it took advantage of a two-out error. The first run of the inning scored on the error, while Sarah Vaughn added a three-run triple and Kiley Rusen a two-run single.
The final Blazer run of the game came in the fourth, when Ashley Steinhilber doubled home Vaughn.
VSU's Brianna Hancock improved to 4-0. She allowed no hits and struck out seven in five innings.
Steinhilber was a perfect 5 for 5 with four runs scored on the day. Vaughn, Altman and Albritton, who scored five times and drove in three runs, all had four hits.

Darian Gonzalez, 21, was driving his motorcycle when the vehicle in front of him stopped unexpectedly after encountering traffic cones in the road. The cones had been placed by a laborer for Saddlebrook Ranch, L.L.C., who was trimming trees and clearing brush on the ranch's property adjacent to the road.
Gonzalez was unable to stop in time and struck the vehicle in front of him. He was thrown from his motorcycle and hit by an oncoming car. He suffered multiple blunt-force trauma, from which he died later that day. He is survived by his wife and mother. His medical expenses totaled about $7,300.
At the time of the incident, Gonzalez had his private helicopter pilot's license and was working toward a commercial license. His lost future earnings based on his educational background and flight training are estimated at about $2.53 million.
Gonzalez's wife and his mother, individually and on behalf of his estate, sued Saddlebrook Ranch and its owner, James Spurlin, alleging the defendants were negligent in directing the laborer to place cones in the roadway without authorization from the county. The plaintiffs contended that according to the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices—the industry standard for companies doing road work—cones may be placed in the road only with the authority of the public agency controlling the road. The plaintiffs also argued that the brush-clearing work being performed was not the kind of work for which such permits are granted. Suit alleged violation of a state law prohibiting the placement of unauthorized traffic control devices.
In addition to the code violations, the plaintiffs contended that the cones created an unnecessary hazard to motorists, and that the work should have been confined to the side of the road. Finally, the plaintiffs claimed that the defendants were negligent in failing to post warning signs and to properly supervise the work.
The defendants argued that Gonzalez was solely responsible because he failed to keep a proper lookout, control his speed, and take proper evasive action.
Spurlin's homeowners insurance carrier denied coverage and filed a separate declaratory judgment action, arguing that his policy covered only his residence, not his business. The court in the underlying lawsuit stayed the proceedings pending the other court's ruling in the declaratory judgment action. While that action was pending, the parties settled during mediation for a confidential amount, part of which was paid by Spurlin's insurer.
Citation: Smith v. Spurlin, No. 2009-04621 (Tex., Harris Co. Jud. Dist. Dec. 15, 2010).
Plaintiff counsel: AAJ members Robert E. Ammons and April A. Strahan, both of Houston.
Plaintiff experts: Jeff Milburn, traffic engineering, College Station, Texas; and Kenneth McCoin, economics, Houston.

Designed by Hans Wegner in 1952, the Sawbuck chair's name refers to its uniquely shaped back, which tips its hat to the lumbering tools that made its solid wood construction possible. It embodies his desire to create simple objects with form and function combined. Details such as the joint between the front and back legs and the sculpted, comfortably curved back set it apart, and the seat front is wider to supply an even more comfortable sitting position. Wonderfully suited for use as a dining chair, the Sawbuck Chair is beautiful enough to enhance any room as a side chair.
The Sawbuck Chair's frame is made of solid ash, beech, or oak. To enhance the chair's comfort, Wegner added an upholstered seat cushion - and that's where it gets really fun. You can choose from a plethora of fabric and leather colors to perfectly suit your taste.
