ORLANDO, FL. - TACA Airlines will become the newest international carrier at Orlando International Airport (MCO) when it commences scheduled non-stop service to Central America. The airline, using Embraer E190 aircraft, will fly three times each week from Orlando to San Salvador, the second most populous city in Central America, with continuing connections throughout the region. The service is scheduled to begin November 1, 2009. TACA Airlines was awarded the 2009 Skytrax award for "Best Airline Central America".
"Increased service to Latin America has been a goal by the Aviation Authority and the community to meet increased travel demand. This new service is welcomed for the opportunities and benefits that it brings both leisure and business travelers for travel between our two regions" said Steve Gardner, Executive Director, Greater Orlando Aviation Authority at the August Board meeting.
In the last 18 months, service to the Latin America and the Caribbean region has increased 29.7% with an annual economic impact to the Central Florida region of 262 million dollars. MCO is the 10th largest port of entry for non-U.S. residents (YTD May 2009) according to the U.S. Department of Commerce, Tourism Industries. With a 6% increase over last year, MCO is one of only three airports in the top 15 which have an increase in international passenger activity over last year. The others are Miami and Philadelphia which are both up by just 1%.
Orlando International has scheduled international service to 24 destinations, provided by 19 airlines.

Nissan Xterra Manual Transmission Problems
vandoom Posts: 1I have a 2006 xterra offroad. I am having the same problem, clutch replacement required at 40,000 km (25,000 miles). Again, normal City driving, no offroading. Nissan Canada customer relations won't budge on the warranty or providing good will help on the cost. Seems to me like a classic "premature wear" on the clutch material, rather than normal wear... will likely sell the truck ASAP and never buy Nissan again due to the below standard parts and horrible customer service relations.
The end of the matter is that Nissan sucks in this situation. 23000 miles and the Xterra needs a new clutch. I neglected to say that the steering column had problems within months of our purchase. I got rid of the vehicle and went with a Jeep. Nissan is off my list forever. Perhaps when the truth comes out that Nissan quality is going down, down, down I will at least have some personal satisfaction. Maybe I just got on board to late. Once bitten twice shy.
mcamara Posts: 1i bought my 2006 nissan xterra last feb2007 and just this weekend after drinving the car for only a year and 2months with 11,000. miles the clutch is worn out.
the dealer said that the cost for the replacement of the clutch is $1700 and not under warranty.
i just have a had time believing that i have driven so terrible to have to repace the clutch. I've been driving for over 15 years manual cars and never had this issue.
i just feel at the mercy of the dealer since they told me that they had never had a nissan xtrerra with a clutch issue....WTF :confuse: :mad:
ridingdirty Posts: 2I have been driving manual trans. for over 35 years, including 2001 and 2003 Xterra. the 2007 I purchased has a clutch failure at only 16k.
no city driving,
no hauling,
over 10 years experience driving xterra manual trans.
over 35 years experience driving manual trans
and nissan wont pay for new clutch -- not even a dime!!!
needless to say, i will never buy a nissan again.
You guys WHo are Having the verry rair clutch problem. There is a bulitin out you should have got a lettor in the Mail from nissan. If you did not bring it to your Nissan dealer. these trucks are real grate trucks. and peapol with the Nissan frunttear are not having problems same trans same clutch. Think you 3 guys just happen to have bad luck. I will try to find the bulitin for you guys Thankyou Marco.
Please let us know when you find something on this Marco. I've been lucky so far with my '06 Frontier 6-Speed at 13,500 Miles and have had no troubles. But, I've read on some Frontier forums that owners have had the same sort of clutch failures despite conservative driving.
gsoutham Posts: 1I also have a 2006 Xtera and the clutch went at 35,000 km. My Ford Explorer clutch lasted 220,000 km so I wasn't expecting to replace the clutch this early. Today at 40,000 km, I was told I need $750 in brake work. I called Nissan Canada today and they said if there are enough complaints, they will do a recall.
pietroant Posts: 3My clutch failed at 23,000 miles. I recently had it repaired at my expense since it is considered a wearable part and not covered under warranty. I am having a hard time believing this part failed due to my driving behavior. I travel mostly over flat lands, do not down shift to slow the vehicle, do not hawl loads. The car has not been abused.....Nonetheless I've driven 2 different makes also manual transmission for a total of 15 years before the Nissan and never had a clutch failure.Sounds shockingly similar to your experiences. There is a trend here that Nissan must address. I hope all have voiced their concerns to the Nissan Consumer Affairs thru Nissan Official site under the contact us tab. I suppose this is the right place to start.
tasin Posts: 1Ok - 2nd clutch at 43,000. This obviously is a design flaw. Have been driving standard transmissions for about 40 years and did not believe this was happening. My dealer was great on the first incident and replaced at no cost. 2nd just occurred this weekend so will see what happens, but afraid this car is going to have to go. I do a lot of cross country driving and cannot have this happen in middle of nowhere. This really should be a recall issue
...mmmm it would appear I am not alone. I learned today that my clutch is worn out at 31,000 km. I am also a manual diehard (30 years). A significant chunk of this distance was long distance in Canada - so not a lot of gear changes. This travel is well documented. Lets hope Nissan will come clean. I am in the process of talking with Nissan... I will continue to post.
Bob6226 Posts: 1I have 2007 Nissan Xterra with 22000 miles and am in the process of having the second clutch put in. The first one wore out at 8000 miles. The dealership is now in the process of replacing and will let me know what they find after they take it apart. I have not been given any encouragement that they would find anything other than driver issues. This is a two wheel drive Xterra no off roading. I cannot afford to be replacing clutches every 8-12,000 miles. Any ideas?
grubz Posts: 2This is my 3rd nissan and it will be my last. I picked up my 07 xterra after the frame on my old pathfinder rusted away even though the exhaust was still original and the engine and tranny ran like new. I gave nissan the benefit of the doubt that they've learned to build a decent body by now but now am faced with selling a truck that I bought 4 months ago off a friend who knows how to drive stick. I figured I wasn't going to have any major problems for at least 5 years and that i'd have it for at least 10. yeah right.... dealer tells me it's my fault and being the nice guy he is will do the work for 1800, as opposed to 2400. I'm not sending any of my money in the direction of these clowns so i'm having a tranny shop replace the clutch and for sale it goes in the spring. worst thing is that centerforce doesn't make a clutch for these 4L xterras (or frontiers); if they did i'd consider keeping it, but if it's just gonna be replaced with the same bad part then it's gone.
Does anyone know of any quality aftermarket clutches for these trucks?
So, $2,600 CAD bought me a new clutch but not the confidence that I won't need another soon. Again, this vehicle has had an easy life. There are no bulletins out regarding the clutch. I am an ex automotive engineer engineer - something is amiss! There is just too much evidence concerning the 2006 release. I wonder if we will see a spate more with the 2008 when the mileages get to the break point or whether Nissan has done a sneaky fix. I invite you to contact me, I am pusuing Nissan on this. Don't be a victim! (email@example.com)
coach877 Posts: 1OK....here goes.
I bought my 2006 Xterra new in March 2006 and have done over 70% highway driving. The truck currently has 43,000 miles. As most of you know the mileage is well below stated on the sticker. I drive 75 mph and am lucky to get 16 mpg. I don't do any off-roading and have only towed with it once while moving.
The steering column was replaced under warrantee during the first year.
I have dutifully completed oil changes and use synthetic oil. I have been driving a stick since 1985. I have not had the dealer complete the scheduled maint but was planning on it since I have owned it for 3 years without changing the rear end fluids.
I noticed the engine over-reving slightly during shifts last week and took it to a local Nissan dealer.
Once I found out that the vehicle was no longer covered under warrantee I took it to a local repair shop that does work on mostly foreign late model autos. He is a friend of mine and I have used his shop for over 12 years on Saabs, BMWs, Volvos, and Toyotas with excellent results.
The total bill came to $3,300. I'm sure the dealer bill would have been closer to $5000.
The $3,300 bill included:
Clutch replacement at 43,000 miles
Here lies the problem!!! Nissan uses a $160 clutch disc in a vehicle that makes 260 hp. I'm no engineer...but this doesn't seem like a good place to skimp.
They used to install beefy clutches in their high HP vehicles. My 1984 300zx turbo clutch lasted close to 100k.
Flywheel replacement ($800 part...surprisingly in stock at a local dealer the part was torn up pretty bad)
My repair shop said it was unusual to find a part like this in stock!!!!!
30,000 mile service (the fluids and filters were close to $400)
New battery...Too early in my opinion.
Wiper blades
Mass Inspection
total parts: $1454
Labor: $1768
Should I cut my losses and trade this puppy in now while I can get a good deal while the dealers are hurtin? Any suggestions?
Thanks for your advice.
It's unfortunate that no aftermarket manufacturer is marketing stronger clutch components for the Nissan 6-Speed. That way, when the work was complete, an owner would know that the fix was good.
I'm wondering too if the clutch master cylinder set up might be a partial culprit. The 4.0L 6-Speed (only) clutch master cylinder assembly should be adjusted to a length of 120.5mm (4.74") from the hole in the clevis (where it attaches to the pedal) to the mounting surface plate of the assembly (engine side of firewall). Ya pretty much have to remove the thing to measure the set up.
My clutch master cylinder squeaked and after FOUR trips to the Dealer, they finally replaced it ..... and didn't adjust it properly before installing it. Fortunately it's set so that the travel is slightly beyond where it should be, but if it were adjusted short, I wonder if clutch slippage might occur? This being a hydraulic clutch, it's hard to say. I'm no Engineer.
gfg Posts: 5I too just had to have my clutch replaced at 20.5k miles of normal driving (no off road). My wife and I have had only manual transmissions in all our cars for the past 40 years because of their durability vs. automatics. Boy were we burned by this our first Nissan. I am an ex-automotive engineer and currently restore cars, and I can restate the obvious: Nissan clearly put a weak, underdesigned and untested clutch in this vehicle. My guess is that since they adapted the 350Z 6-speed trans with its integral bellhousing to the X, they must have also had to use the Z clutch, perhaps smaller OD and which is designed for a car of significantly less weight. I was expecting a pickup-type of rugged drivetrain, not to mention Japanese design durability. Instead we got a junk clutch; very un-Japanese. If there is no news of a Nissan recall and free replacement with a truck-type beefy clutch in the next 6 months, we will sell our 08 X and never buy Nissan again. It is still hard to believe a major Japanese car co such as Nissan would release such an unreliable drivetrain, when their major sales advantage has always been their great designs for reliability and many troublefree miles.
charles44 Posts: 2Sometimes manufacturers under-design clutches, or they increase the horsepower and try to get away with using the same clutch. Sounds like Nissan may be guilty of this. You may want to look into using a Tribco www.tribco.com clutch, their 100% Kevlar composite clutch discks are available through many clutch rebuilders.
Jim Wolf Technology now offers a clutch disk and flywheel for the 2nd Gen Xterra and Frontier with the VQ-40 engine and six speed.
Prices are $450 for the Flywheel and $485 for the Clutch Disk.
Jim Wolf Technology VQ-40 Stuff
I do not own these; I've had no trouble with my Frontier as yet, but I have only 20,000 Miles on it. I am very happy to see that there's now an alternative out there if I do have trouble.
d3363 Posts: 4I also have a 2007 Xterra and at 32,000 miles and told it is not covered under warranty. I am ready to fight on this after reading all the other complaints regarding this same issue.
Have you had any luck with Nissan? I am waiting to hear back from a regional manager regarding having this repaired at no cost to me. Does not sound positive though.
I am very interested in joining the fight and possibly even a class action suit if this is not taken care of by Nissan.

Lockport Union-Sun & Journal — A mistrial was declared this afternoon in the ongoing sign case involving David J. Mongielo.
Lockport Town Justice Raymond E. Schilling made the decision following a motion by Mongielo's attorney, Frank Housh. Housh said in court that Schilling began the jury selection process without a court reporter present.
Today was the start of jury selection for Mongielo's trial. Not a single juror had been interviewed as potential jurors sat in court for about an hour.
Schilling said Housh has until Oct. 1 to file motions.
Mongielo is to be tried for violating the town's electronic sign ordinance that prohibits signs from changing the format or message more than once every 10 minutes. It's the second time Mongielo has been charged with violating the ordinance.
The Town of Lockport auto shop owner was originally sentenced to 15 days in Niagara County Jail and fined on April 17, 2012 in Lockport Town Court.
The jail sentence was the result of the violation coming within the one-year conditional discharge Mongielo received on Sept. 14, 2010 for his first violation of the sign ordinance. The condition for the discharge was that Mongielo could not break the sign ordinance again.
But, Niagara County Judge Matthew Murphy's ruled in October the second conviction had to be overturned and a new trial given.

Freddy Vs. Jason.....
A TERRIBLE piece of crap. I mean, I know that movies like this are not intended to be high art...but GODDAMN! Absolutely awful on every level. Bad acting, bad screenplay, bad editing....BLAH.
The Friday the 13th movies are a guilty pleasure of mine, and I wish New Line had at least made sure that their crossover with the equally popular Nightmare on Elmstreet series would be handled well. I mean, AT LEAST make them exciting!
Nope. This movie blows in every way.
1 out of 5.
Drugstore Cowboy....
Matt Dillon is a junkie who robs drug stores to support his habit. Eventually, he decides to clean up...with depressing results.
A pretty good drug movie that marks the real introduction of Gus Van Zant as an American film icon...but really nothing too groundbreaking other than that. I liked it, but wouldn't really bother to watch it again.

The study of Health and Human Development is based on the premise that health and human development needs to be promoted at an individual level, and within group and community settings at national and international levels, to maximise global development potential. This underpins the structure of the four units of Health and Human Development. The study looks at physical, social, intellectual and emotional aspects of health and development beginning with the individual and progressing to the family, community and an international perspective. It acknowledges that health and human development is determined by lifestyle, environment, heredity and access to health services. The study also promotes the understanding that nutrition plays a major role in influencing both health status and human development Health and Human Development at the VCE level focuses on factors that promote wellbeing of individuals, family and communities.
In addition topics to be addressed in this unit include:
Assessment 1: Resource Exposé activity, 50%, (2000 words equivalent). Students select a Unit of Study and research four different types of resources and demonstrate (via a 12 minute presentation and critical analysis) how these can be incorporated into teaching and learning of the selected "key knowledge" and "key skills". A written summary is also submitted.
Assessment 2: Teaching Unit Group activity (2-4 people). As a group students are to develop and document in detail, a unit of work that addresses selected "key knowledge" and "key skills" from the study design. The unit is to demonstrate sequential teaching of the content knowledge students needs to acquire to gain an understanding of the selected key knowledge. Each group will discuss their unit of work via a digital audio recording (2000 words equivalent per group member).

Believe In Fortune Cookie Predictions? After This, You Might
By editor
Originally published on Thu July 25, 2013 5:58 am
Good morning, I'm David Greene.
OK. Next time you open a fortune cookie, you might want to give the message careful consideration. Last week, after dinner out with his wife, William Johnson cracked open a fortune cookie.

"Come on, fat boy. That treadmill isn't doing you any good."
Under some circumstances, those would've been fightin' words. In this instance, though, they were followed by a friendly invitation to come outside and run around the track for a real workout.
Other than "hey" and "What's up?", those were the first words Phil Henderson ever spoke to me at the old Lakewood YMCA in Durham. He was working there, and I suspect he simply got tired of seeing me working out every day with no change in my shape.
Henderson, a former Duke University basketball star, died Sunday in the Philippines, where he was running the Filipino Basketball Academy. He was 44.
News of Henderson's death was overshadowed by the sports world's unrestrained celebration recently of Michael Jordan's 50th birthday anniversary, an event that was treated on sports channels and sports pages as though it were the birth of a deity.
For us mortals, turning 50 isn't a big deal. Except when you don't reach it.
The sports network ESPN seemingly ran an entire week of specials on "MJ at 50." Whether such an excessive celebration was warranted depends solely on which shade of blue you favor. Regardless of the blue you bleed, though, Henderson's death — and life — should not be allowed to pass unremarked upon.
We can assume ESPN acknowledged Phil's death, although I never saw any mention of it.
Attention must be paid
Naw, Henderson never hit the NCAA-championship winning jumper for Duke, nor did he go on to win six NBA championships and redefine the commercial marketing of athletes.
Still, some attention must be paid to such a fine athlete and person dying young.
Warren Davis, the athletic director at Rocky Mount Preparatory School, said he last talked to his friend Henderson around the Christmas holidays, while Phil was in the Philippines.
Davis said Robert Brickey, another former Duke player, put him in touch with Henderson.
"We talked on a three-way and reminisced about old times. He was in good spirits," Davis said.
Jennifer Nelson, a spokeswoman for the Y, said Phil was its community outreach director and was instrumental in forming the Midnight Basketball League. Staff members who worked with him, she said, remember him as "a great collaborator who continually looked for ways to reach people in the community who needed the Y and its resources."
'Reach out and touch'
Davis said he first met Henderson in 1993, when Davis was running the Y's afterschool program. "One of my fondest memories was when he was in the gym and just talking to the young kids," he said. "He would sit there with them and they'd look up at him and say, 'Wow. This isn't a Michael Jordan figure in front of us. This is a person I can reach out and touch, someone that we see on a consistent basis here at the Y ... who's been to the mountaintop of college basketball a couple of times with Coach K.'"
I was as awed by Henderson as those kids were, but not because of his basketball prowess. Most impressive to me was the fact that he never gave off the air of having been a big-time jock, nor was he — as I assumed, no, hoped, all Duke basketball players were — a jerk. I've met several since then and have found out that not all of them are — once they leave the court.
Indeed, the one time he should've been a jerk and punched out some chump, he wasn't. After a pickup game at the Y one day, a local hotshot high school hoopster was talking smack, taunting Phil for being — a few years removed from college glory — back in Durham instead of on some NBA roster. Henderson never showed anger, never — as I would have — crammed the loudmouthed punk into a trash can.
I saw that kid a couple of years ago, all grown up, several years past his high school glory: he was driving a Pepsi Cola truck and looked in need of a treadmill or track. I smiled.
Davis, recalling his final conversation with Henderson, said, "The saddest thing to me is that sometimes you don't get to tell somebody 'Bye.' ... You're halfway across the world and you're hearing my voice on the phone, and we're just laughing and talking. The next thing you know I'm getting a telephone call that says 'Coach Davis. You remember Phil Henderson? He's gone.'
"You miss the chance to thank him for the small things like taking the time to say 'Hey' to the young kids, not the big things he did on the court."
It may be too late, Phil, but, bye. And thanks.

Speedway to Reopen Under New Boss
The Scotland County Speedway will reopen for racing action on August 14th after the Scotland County Fair Board reached an agreement with a new track promoter last week.
Rick Girard of Columbia will take on the task of returning dirt track racing to the fairgrounds.
Former promoter Wayne Messamaker terminated his contract with the fair board in July after managing to get just three scheduled races in, due in large part to Mother Nature.
Girard has scheduled two races in August, Saturday nights of August 14th and 21st. The fairgrounds will host a special event August 28th meaning no races.
But the schedule will resume weekly, on Saturday nights in September, with the new promoter pledging to run as late into the year as weather permitting. Girard indicated he plans to continue the traditional two-day race in October called the Memphis Nationals.
The new promoter is no stranger to the speedway, having raced his stock car at SCS in previous years. He has been racing for the past 10 years, and is the 2009 reining track champion at Moberly Speedway.
"I've been racing all of my life, running motorcycles and drags before getting into stock cars," he said. "I've been on the business side of the industry too, working at or owning businesses dealing in parts, auto body repair, automobile sales… So I hope I can put the experience together to make this work."
Girard had previously contacted the fair board regarding the tracks availability prior to the start of the 2010 season, but the group had already agreed to a deal with Messamaker. He said the abbreviated season will help him get a feel for what things could be like in 2011.
"I'm heading into this with the intentions of being here next year," he said. "I know the first few races will be tough, and I'll probably lose money, but I hope they will help build for a strong finish."
The track will maintain the bulk of the existing rules for 2010. Girard said he is considering adding two-man cruisers to the field of cars. Another proposed change would be allowing rear-wheel drive vehicles to run in the Hornets and four-cylinder class. He added that he will be reviewing the carburetor rules in the stock car class.

[Updated] Nov. 21 at 10:37 a.m.
A Simsbury business and luxury apartment construction site have been evacuated while firefighters investigate a gas leak, according to Simsbury police.
At approximately 9:11 a.m. the Simsbury Volunteer Fire Department and police responded to reports of a gas leak at a construction site in Weatogue.
An office building at 146 Hopmeadow Street and the construction site for a new luxury apartment complex behind Dunkin Donuts have been evacuated after sources said a construction vehicle struck a propane tank on the site.
Assistant Fire Chief Randy Chesanek said a large construction vehicle drove over an underground 1,000 gallon propane tank crushing the tank's cover and causing the gas to leak.
Upon arrival firefighters evacuated the office building and construction site and waited for the arrival of Aerol Gas technicians to repair the tank, Chesanek said.

There were only about six people inside the office building at the time of the incident, according to Chesanek. The building includes the Law Offices of John D. Ritson, Ward Kilduff Mortgage, and Clarity Marketing.
Firefighters said the wind helped prevent a buildup of gas in the area which allowed other nearby businesses to remain open. Chesanek said gas level readings were taken at the scene.
No injuries have been reported.
Simsbury Volunteer Fire Company and the Simsbury Police Department are investigating the scene.
This story will be updated as details become available.

COLUMBIA — Gov. Nikki Haley cleared by the S.C. House of allegations of violating state ethics laws flew to Charleston last August to announce that ethics reform would be her cause in the 2013 legislative session.
Haley wasnt alone in her interest in the subject.
The Republican-controlled S.C. House and Senate announced ethics reform efforts, too. Public interest and good government groups signed on, and Haley named a blue-ribbon, bipartisan commission. It recommended tougher income disclosure requirements for legislators, requiring secret political groups to report their activities and perhaps most important ending the practice of lawmakers investigating ethics complaints against lawmakers.
After scandals that had embroiled former Gov. Mark Sanford, led to the resignation of Lt. Gov. Ken Ard and, this year, added an investigation of House Speaker Bobby Harrell, the momentum was clear: South Carolina soon would get tougher laws governing elected officials.
Last week, that effort failed in the state Senate, dying at least for 2013.
What went wrong?
Republican Haley blames Democrats, a minority in the majority-GOP Senate, saying they blocked the most meaningful ethics-reform effort in two decades.
Democrats blame a rush job on a flawed proposal that only arrived in the Senate in May and more damaging, some say a lack of political skills by Haley and her staff.
After a last-minute deal had been struck to ensure Senate debate and possibly a vote on the reform proposal, ethics charges against state Sen. Robert Ford, D-Charleston, flared in public. Accused by the Senate Ethics Committee of hundreds of campaign abuses, Ford resigned rather than face expulsion from the Senate.
Haley spokesman Rob Godfrey responded by saying the case against Ford was an example of why South Carolina needed ethics reform.
Any chance of the bipartisanship needed to pass ethics reform promptly imploded.
If you want to know why we need ethics reform, perhaps Mr. Godfrey should have went downstairs and looked at somebody hes real familiar with, state Sen. Darrell Jackson, D-Richland, told the Senate Tuesday, referring to Haley, twice cleared by the House Ethics Committee of charges that she used her position as a Lexington state representative for personal financial gain.
Jackson and others including a Tea Party-libertarian Republican Senate coalition that wanted, instead of ethics reform, a vote on a proposal to outlaw the Affordable Care Act in South Carolina recoiled from the ethics proposal, arguing the Senate had proven it could police itself effectively, casting doubt on the need for reform.
As opposition mounted, the ethics bill ran into its final, fatal hurdle its timing, said state Sen. Wes Hayes, R-York, acclaimed as the Legislatures dean of ethics.
Nothing controversial gets passed in the last two weeks of the session, Hayes said last week, after the proposal had failed.
The question now is whether ethics reform will be revived next year.
It should, watchdog groups and some lawmakers agree.
In their debate, state senators openly decried the ethics procedure in the S.C. House as broken.
But critics say the Senate process is not much better.
Its not a convincing argument to say ... they (legislators) dont need some kind of investigative process on the outside, said John Crangle, director of S.C. Common Cause, a watchdog group that pushed for ending the practice of lawmakers investigating their colleagues.
The Senates ouster of Ford cited repeatedly by senators as proof that the Senates ethics process works proves nothing to critics.
Fords activities had been questionable for years, and the Senate only acted this year, said Crangle. And, unlike the sometimes-erratic Ford, the Legislature has yet to prove it will act against a powerful legislator, said Ashley Landess, director of the libertarian S.C. Policy Council think tank.
A campaign cause
Charleston was Haleys first stop on a state tour in August to roll out a list of ethics reforms.
With state Attorney General Alan Wilson, R-Lexington, by her side, Haley called for shedding more light on lawmakers income and work, and ending the practice of lawmakers policing themselves.
While she had been cleared of wrongdoing by the House Ethics Committee, Haley immediately was criticized for hijacking the issue from lawmakers.
If we had these reforms in place before Governor Haley committed her actions, she would probably still be meeting with the attorney general, only in a different place, House Speaker Harrell, now the subject of a SLED investigation into alleged campaign abuses, said in a statement at the time.
Haley formed a committee to study ethics, appointing former attorneys general, lawmakers and representatives of the legal, media and business communities. The commission held hearings and took testimony. In January, it made nearly two dozen recommendations, including ending the practice of the House and Senate policing their own members.
The commission surprised us by being very effective and bold, and taking a strong position, said Policy Council director Landess.
Drafted in secret
Then, came the waiting.
In February, Hayes, dubbed the dean of ethics for his work on the states last big ethics reform push 20 years ago, introduced a bill proposing several reforms. Those proposals were followed by a few other Senate bills, smaller in scope.
In April, the House introduced a bill to serve as the vehicle for ethics reform. Drawing suspicion, a House panel took up the bill for debate before the public had a chance to read it.
House Majority Leader Bruce Bannister, R-Greenville, said the bill was a combination of two bills that already had been introduced and were available for public review. He said the House bill was the result of negotiations between Haleys office, and lawmakers of both parties in the House and Senate.
When the bill was made public, it decriminalized ethics violations, drawing the ire of watchdog groups.
The bill, with the criminal penalties reinstated, passed the House at the end of April, shifting the onus of passing a bill onto the Senate. In early May, a Senate subcommittee took up the bill in a marathon meeting that resulted in several changes.
Taking to the stump
With the Senate yet to vote, however, Haley took to the bully pulpit, calling a press conference, surrounded mostly by other Republicans, to urge Senate Democrats to pass ethics reform.
If we can get a group of Senate Democrats to come our way, this passes, Haley said during the May 21 news conference. This is not a partisan thing. This should be the issue of elected officials understand(ing) we work for the people and not the other way around and were going to prove it by passing ethics reform this year.
Democrats responded that ethics reform faced opposition from members of Haleys own Republican Party the William Wallace Caucus, a group of Tea Party-libertarian Senate Republicans who said a vote on a bill to outlaw Obamacare, not ethics reform, was their constituents top priority.
Roads and education, the Democrats added, were more important to their constituents, than ethics.
The press conference was the straw that broke the camels back, said state Sen. Vincent Sheheen, D-Kershaw, Haleys presumed opponent in the 2014 governors race and a supporter of ethics reform.
The bridges (between Haley and legislators) really werent built, Sheheen said, adding ethics reform became a political football.
Sheheen spent the session performing a balancing act one of the few Senate Democrats publicly pushing senators to pass ethics reform this year, while, at the same time, using the issue to take swipes at Haley.
Haley rejects any charges of partisanship on her part on the issue, said Godfrey, her spokesman. The governor repeatedly said ethics was a non-partisan issue, he added.
(Haley) singled out opponents of the bill, regardless of party, Godfrey said. It just happens that most of the opponents were Senate Democrats.
Poisoning the well?
Robert Fords Senate seat barely had time to cool off before his fate became political fodder.
It all happened quickly. Ford attended the first day of hearings in his Senate Ethics Committee case after which, Sen. Jackson said, fellow senators leveled with him: He had to resign.
When youre looking at someone who is an adult man crying in your arms because of a decision he knew he would have to make, that was tough, Jackson said.
Ford agreed to resign.
But his first resignation letter set the effective date as being at the end of the session, Thursday. Senate President Pro Tempore John Courson, R-Richland, and Majority Leader Harvey Peeler, R-Cherokee, urged Ford to change his resignation date to effective immediately. Ford agreed.
Shortly after that announcement, Haley spokesman Godfrey made the comment that dissolved any momentum building in the Senate toward consensus on ethics reform, said state Sen. Joel Lourie, D-Richland.
Democrats erupted after Godfrey, acknowledging Fords service to the state, said Fords case was an example of why the state needs ethics reform.
Despite the damning evidence against Ford, Senate Democrats scoffed at Godfreys comment, saying it was kicking a guy when hes down.
The well has been poisoned right now, Sen. Lourie said.
The Ford effect
Using what little time remained for reaching consensus, Senate Ethics Committee chairman Luke Rankin, R-Horry, suggested a new reason why the ethics proposal should wait until January: Robert Ford.
Rankin asked whether the Senate should support the bills proposal to take from lawmakers the responsibility of investigating ethics complaints against legislators one of several changes the bill would make and, many argue, the most important. The Senate Ethics Committees quick, decisive investigation against Ford, who now faces a State Law Enforcement Division investigation, was proof the Senate could police its own, he said.
Sens. Brad Hutto, D-Orangeburg, and Hugh Leatherman, R-Florence, Senate Finance chairman, weighed in, supporting Rankin. The discussion shifted toward whether the proposed state ethics commission could handle ethics complaints or, for that matter, police lawmakers if it did not have the budget necessary to increase audits of campaign finance reports.
Bringing debate to an end, Sen. Gerald Malloy, D-Darlington, pointed Wednesday to 40 amendments to the ethics bill awaiting debate, adding more were waiting. Debate alone could last more than 13 hours, running the clock out on ethics reform and everything else, he said, asking the body to move on.
They threw someone under the bus
Some critics said the bill needed more time to be vetted.
Others disagree, including Sen. Hayes who said senators had time to give input in the committee process and Haley.
The Senate and House bills fall short of the recommendations made by Haleys commission. But they got close enough, Haley spokesman Godfrey said, when asked whether the governor would support waiting to get more reforms in the bill.
Theres never a perfect bill, and there never will be, Godfrey said. This bill was miles better than the status quo. Everyone had more than enough time to work on it delay is just an excuse for inaction, and South Carolina deserves better.
Watchdog groups say the Ford hearings are not evidence the Senates ethics process works and does not need reform.
You dont want institutions to function depending primarily on the personalities of the people in positions of power, Crangle said. Sen. Robert Ford, he was there for 20 years, and hes been doing a lot of stuff for a long time ... and nobody said anything about it until the last couple months.
Crangle asked why the Senate Ethics Committee had not brought charges against Ford earlier, when Sens. Leatherman or Hayes were chairing the committee.
Why did it happen now, when there was a big push for an ethics bill and when the governor was harping on it? Then, the Senate suddenly wakes itself up from its sleep and goes after Ford.
Hayes, who chaired the Senate Ethics Committee before Rankin, said the committee, which brought the charges against Ford, did not have the power to bring complaints against its own members until recently. Previously, he added, the committee could not act just because somebody, for years, may have suspected that Ford was doing that. There were no complaints.
Landess, with the Policy Council, said Ford is different than other lawmakers who have been accused of ethics violations including Harrell, who wields great power in the House.
They threw someone under the bus who has no power, Landess said of the Senate. They cannot say that they have always taken care of business.
They have not, said Landess, whose group filed the ethics allegations against Harrell. Im not saying they shouldnt have done what they did with Sen. Ford good for them.
Lets see if they would police their own leadership.

iJoy Massage Chair
Our iJoy massage chair emulates the same techniques used by massage and chiropractic professionals for back and spinal care. Sit back, relax and enjoy!
Choose a massage mode to suit your mood. The massage chair lets you customize your massage using a wide variety of massage techniques. You may choose from three stationary massage techniques and a rolling massage, or you can combine them. Use the Position and Zone buttons to target your massage to a specific area, or select one of the three auto massage programs and let the chair take control.
Massage can lower blood pressure, increase circulation, improve and expedite recovery from injury, improve sleep and enhance concentration. Regular massage also stimulates the lymph system – the body's natural defense against toxic invaders – to help avoid sickness and promote an overall sense of wellbeing. Regular massage relieves stress and contributes to deeper, more restorative sleep, helping improve physical and mental wellness and reduce fatigue.
Short and long- term stress triggers changes in the body increasing the likelihood of getting sick, raising the risk of serious conditions like high blood pressure and heart disease, and can make problems we already have worse. In fact, some experts believe stress-related tension accounts for 80-90 percent of disease. Regular massage in high-end massage chairs puts the mind and body at ease by easing sore muscles, relieving stress and prompting the body to release endorphins, which relieve tension and improve mood.
We recommend that you use the massage chair in conjunction with one of our many relaxation mp3s or soothing music.

A movement to ban plastic bags at retail stores in the County of San Mateo and 24 other cities in San Mateo and Santa Clara counties - including Campbell - continues to move forward.
San Mateo County has released a draft of a mandated Environmental Impact Report, which assesses the impact the proposed Single Use Bag Ban Ordinance would create. Once the EIR is complete - expected in October 2012 - the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors will vote on whether or not to approve the ordinance.
The proposal is meant to eliminate single-use bags. Restaurants would be excluded from the ban. Additionally, produce bags and bags that hold prescription medication would be exempted.
If passed by the Supervisors, the ordinance would impose a 10 cent fee for for each recycled paper and reusable bag distributed by stores at the point of sale until Dec. 31, 2014; beginning January 1, 2015, the charge would increasee to 25 cents per paper bag.
According to the San Mateo County Health Department website:
- 20 billion single-use plastic grocery bags are used every year in California.
- Most end up in landfills, or as litter on land and in water.
- Researchers have well-documented the harmful impact to our environment and wildlife caused by one-use plastic bags.
- Plastic never biodegrades; instead it breaks down into smaller and smaller particles that seep into our soil and water.
- A study by the Environmental Protection Agency found that only 4.3 percent of bags end up being recycled and a single-use paper bag has an even larger greenhouse gas emission than plastic bags.
A single public hearing on the draft report of the EIR will be held by the San Mateo County Planning Commission on July 11 at 9:00 a.m. in 400 County Center in Redwood City.
You are also encouraged to submit written comments to email@example.com through the close of business on Aug. 6.
Here's a rundown of the cities in the two counties participating in the EIR:

Investment predators create a plan for capturing their prey (prime investment opportunities) while risk is fairly low, and spit the bones out (sell the investment) before they become prey themselves.Pounce describes a system that is neither frantic day trading nor passive buy-and-hold investing. You set up a three-pronged strategy based on quantitative measures of market value, economic direction, and market sentiment, and then choose stocks, exchange traded funds (ETFs), or mutual funds using easy-to-understand criteria. You tweak the system no more than once a month. You've now got the laws of probability in your favor.

Republican Incumbent Congressman Pat Meehan of Drexel Hill (Upper Darby) (R-PA7) easily defeated Democrat Challenger George Badey of Radnor to win a second term in the U.S. House Tuesday.
Meehan held an nearly 2 to 1 margin in Delaware County to retain the seat he won during the historic GOP victories of the 2010 Obama mid-term elections.
The Republican momentum was not with the national GOP Tuesday night, prompting one top Meehan Campaign official to call his victory as "at least one bright spot in an otherwise disappointing night."
During his victory speech Meehan told a ballroom full of supporters at the Springfield Country Club that his focus during his second term will be on jobs. Meehan cited his work to save the gasoline refinery in Marcus Hook as one of the highlights of his first term. He told supporters that work in Washington in the next Congress needs to be focused on the impact the economy has on working families in Delaware County and around the country.
In his concession speech, Radnor Attorney George Badey told supporters he was "proud of the way our campaign conducted itself through the year.
We have surprised a lot of people in this election. This has all been worth it."
Badey left the door open for future campaigns saysing "With hard work, persistence and perseverance anything is possible. It's not over. the battle never ends. I'm living my American dream - win or lose."

Two local churches have become one.
After more than six months of discussion between leaders of First Baptist Church of Haverhill and Haverhill Community Church, the two congregations voted on May 19 to become one church.
Their first joint worship service was June 2 at First Baptist Church, 217 Main St.
Established in 1994, Haverhill Community Church agreed to become part of First Baptist Church, which has a rich history in Haverhill dating back to 1765. First Baptist Church hopes to lease the Haverhill Community Church building at 17-19 Newcomb St. to a like-minded church or organization.
In a society where the average church attendance is dwindling, officials of the First Baptist Church (American Baptist) and Haverhill Community Church (Southern Baptist) said they were happy to unite their leadership, including three pastors, and their church bodies, which will now be nearly 200 people.
In November, the Rev. Rick Harrington, pastor of First Baptist Church, proposed the possibility of a merger to Haverhill Community Church pastors Dave Herring and Mike Sperring, citing several reasons. First, both churches have very close similarities in theology, ministry perspective and passion for Haverhill, with significant overlap in several areas. The churches are virtually next-door neighbors and are trying to reach the same community.
Haverhill has a rich church history dating back to the 1600s, but church participation has declined significantly in the last 50 years. Although there are more than 25 evangelical churches in Haverhill, fewer than 4 percent of people in the Merrimack Valley attend a local church.
First Baptist Church welcomes everyone in the community to join in worship and celebration of this merger. For more information, visit fbchaverhill.org or call 978-374-7491.

© Copyright 2014 Albany Herald
ALBANY -- Revenues are up, work place injuries are down, and Dougherty County Emergency Medical Services Director Bobby Tripp says that, for the most part, calls remained relatively steady for 2009.
Giving his annual report before the Dougherty County Commission Monday, Tripp said that the total number of calls that EMS ran in 2009 were up from 2008 to a total of 19,706 calls.
"It's been a busy year, but I think we've handled it well," Tripp said.
In total, EMS crews traveled 66,588 miles in 2009 and generated $2.9 million, an almost $300,000 increase from 2008.
On the medical side, Tripp said that complaints of chest pain and respiratory distress remain the top ailments of EMS patients.
For trauma calls, motor-vehicle accidents top the list at 8 percent of the total calls with 1,514 incidents in 2009. Falls were the next highest with 1,443 and 7.8 percent.
Tripp said that EMS improved its response times, with almost 60 percent of total incidents recording a response time of five or fewer minutes.
"That's pretty good," Commissioner Jack Stone said. "I know when you're in a bad situation a minute feels like an eternity, but getting across the county in that kind of time is a feat."
Tripp said that 2009 saw the biggest change in the department's STEMI program, which aims to reduce the time it takes to get heart patients into a catherization lab.
In 2009, the average door-to-balloon time was 86 minutes with the fastest time clocked at around 12 minutes. Prior to the program's implementation, the average time was more than 100 minutes.
"I can't say how important this is," Tripp said. "The more we can reduce the time that it takes for someone having chest pains to the time they get on the table and have the catherization done, the better the chance of survival."
Tripp also told commissioners that his department suffered only one on-the-job injury, which resulted in only two days of lost work time.
Tripp said that just a few years ago, the department was averaging 12-15 loss-of-work injuries each year. The reason for the dramatic change? Tripp credits the new automated stretchers, which use hydraulics to lift patients, taking the burden off paramedics and EMTs.

The assassin presents the first look at the shadow power source and hints at the requirements to master it. Assassins forfeit a shard of their souls to safely channel the dark energy imbuing the Shadowfell. One doesn't dip into shadow power without paying a price and meeting its perilous demands. Yet opportunities exist for those unwilling to make the full commitment to the Shadowfell's power. If such individuals think they can escape the plane's steep price completely, they learn their error quickly. This article presents the assassin hybrid class, while also expanding options available to all assassins.
You have accepted your dark reflection and understand its place in your soul. Yet you are unwilling to surrender completely to the darkness you now harbor. What drove you to seek out the Shadowfell's power? Were you driven by grief, guilt, hatred, or vengeance? Something else? Is your divided focus the result of an incomplete bond? Or do you dabble in other areas to better conceal your sinister nature?

Chances are you've heard of people using bands in the gym, but may not know what the benefits are or how to use them.
Popularized by Westside Barbell legend Louie Simmons, bands have been helping powerlifters get bigger and stronger for years, but until recently, very few bodybuilders have experienced what bands can do for them.
Get ready to learn a new method that will help you hit your muscles in ways that simply arent possible with barbells, dumbbells, or cables!

Can I have some lean muscle & strength please? My Training Journal
The original title of this articles was "Bands for Bodybuilding". It specifically addresses how and why bodybuilders should use resistance bands in their training to optimize their results.
No thoughts on this? Has anyone read the article? I promise you that if you are a bodybuilder you will benefit from reading this article.
I have not had much experience with using bands for isolation or bodybuilding purposes other than some band pushdowns, but I can see how they could be a great tool. Band work does require you to be very focused and the progressive tension is a great way to mix things up.

Supplements: www.AtLargeNutrition.com
Other than the Regular bench squat and dead band lifts I also use bands for tricep extensions, ab crunches, hammer curls, face pulls, pullups. Bands are the shiz for hypertrophy not only strength. I am a little confused by the article though a lot of it seemed to be geared towards powerlifting such as the videos of west side and the speed squat video.

It certainly makes sense that bands could help for bodybuilding purposes. You typically have to push harder through a longer portion of the ROM with bands so that would yield more time under higher tensions. I haven't used them for bodybuilding purposes, but the premise certainly seems logical.
My fault on the pics
I think some of the reason for the lack of discussion and actually the lack of bodybuilders using bands is purely because they are a bit intimidating as you started out by saying in your article.
First of all to most people in a commercial gym it's going to look a little odd. I mean I get funny looks doing floor presses, imagine whats going to happen when I bust out some bands and attach them to the bench lol
Secondly, where do you start? Upon reflection, we should have included some type of details on what types of bands to start with and what type of weight you should start with.
Chris, lets say someone benches 200lbs for 10 reps. how would they go about adding in bands to this? Should they reduce the weight and use a band and what type of band?
I'm definitely going to give them a go at some point, but must admit still feel a little lost in terms of what bands to use and how that will affect my reps.

Can I have some lean muscle & strength please? My Training Journal
If the goal is a 10 rep set then the bar weight will most certainly have to lightened vs. what they can do without bands.
Bands are simply a form of resistance. The lifter incorporates them beginning during warm-ups and works their way up to a load that will permit roughly the targeted number of reps. Does that make sense?
Bands can even be used with machines if one chooses.
I guarantee any bodybuilder who incorporated them into their training would experience an increase in size and strength (assuming they do not overtrain and are consuming sufficient calories).
Sorry to bring back an old thread, but I just read this article....I've been looking to get some bands for a while now, and this article really kickstarted my interest again. My problem is just as Daniel said above, I have no idea what bands to start with.....can someone give some guidance? I want to start using them for my squat and deadlift training

I know that this thread has been dead for a while, but I think it deserves a little more attention. Bands will make you strong and muscular, due to the fact that they train the entire strength curve and provide a massive amount of eccentric overload. I have used the bands with great success not only for compound movements, but also isolation exercises. I LOVE bands for biceps, nothing comes close to perfectly matching the strength curve as well as bands. I get mine from EFS, they have charts providing the resistance ratings for each band. Get to it.

Trauger replied, "No, that was the whole deal. That is my home. That's just a mailing address. I have no house, and I got no money and I got no assets. It's all in that (BLEEPing) boat that she just took off in."
Officers asked Trauger for his cell phone number, but he brings up something else.
"If she says I make harassing phone calls to her. Bull."
Trauger told officers he had nowhere to live, and appeared completely caught off guard.
"I don't know what to do," he said. "I can't believe this."
The conversation revealed just how important the Premium Time was to Trauger.
An officer asked, "Was that your intention for coming down?" Trauger answered, "To live on that boat til the day I die."
Witnesses said that day everything changed.
"When they escorted him off the boat, as he was leaving he said 'this is my boat and I will kill you guys,'" witness Jesse Marrero recalled.
Those words sent Barnes into hiding. She docked the boat nearly 50 miles south at the St. Mary's Boat Yard. Then a few weeks later, by chance, Trauger spotted Barnes.
"He said 'Crystal I found her,'" Ferrier said. "'I just ran into her inside a Walmart.' He ran into her inside a Walmart. Ok, David. He goes, 'I followed her out to see where she was going, she ran like you had never seen somebody run.'"
Barnes filed a police report, and one day later, a man fitting Trauger's description was seen at the boat yard. As a safety precaution, Barnes' friend Larry Ford came to stay with her.
Ford's friend Mabel Smith said, "He didn't want her to be alone because she was afraid of her ex-husband. And he was staying with her to help her out."
Barnes then filed a protective order against Trauger. He was never served. Three days later, police found the Premium Time in flames. Barnes and Ford were believed to be aboard the yacht. Police named David Trauger as the main suspect.
"If you'd asked me if he was capable, I would have laughed in your face and said this is ridiculous," Graham mused. "I know him well enough to know he's not a murderer. Well I guess I didn't know him that well."
After a manhunt, police found Trauger outside his Kingsland apartment. Detectives said he fired a gun at officers, they returned fire killing him. Now Graham is left to wonder how a union with so much promise, spiraled out of control.
"He painted this beautiful picture and she bought it," Graham said. "And she put into the picture to make it more beautiful and they should have had a great life."
St. Mary's police still can't positively say it was Karen Barnes and Larry Ford on the boat. DNA testing will take months.
Karen Barnes' family didn't feel comfortable talking on camera just yet, they are waiting for the remains to be positively identified.
But there is a sense of hurt there because they said Barnes told them she was afraid of her ex-husband.

As candidate for county board, I have knocked on hundreds of doors to ask support of voters from District 2 (Butternuts, Morris, Pittsfield). There is always a degree of hesitation before knocking on each door.
An unexpected visitor is not at the top of anyone's wish list. It's never a good time to time to "bother" people, who must fix and eat dinner, put kids to bed, milk cows, mow lawns, vacuum floors and attend to life's daily chores. However, almost without exception, I have been received politely — often warmly, with many firm handshakes and sometimes even a hug for support.
Political campaigns can be grueling, but my favorite part is meeting people in my district. Everywhere I go, I meet decent, hard-working people who want government to work better for them. They are understandably cynical about how dysfunctional things have become, having lost patience with partisan, obstructionist politics. They feel taxes are too high, roads are poorly maintained, and essential services are not provided — or not provided well.
I cannot promise to wave a magic wand and solve all problems, but I can promise a different approach to governance — one that is proactive, not reactive. The county board should do more than put out fires as they occur. The way the Manor was dealt with is just one example of how not to go about things.
I can also promise to try to prevent problems from becoming unmanageable and to improve communications so voters know what county government does in general and what it is doing about specific issues or problems. More information may be found at http://www.winchestercountyrep.com. My opponent has had 14 years to make things better. I hope you agree it's time to give someone else a chance.
