The Daily Star
---- — On March 6, I was one of a great many that attended, as well as one of the large number that spoke out against the terrible idea of privatizing one of Otsego County's treasures: Otsego Manor.
I am troubled that our elected officials heard absolutely nothing that was said at the Board of Representatives meeting. Representatives by definition are in office to act as agents of the people and are not to act as "loose cannons." Not a single person in attendance spoke in favor of privatizing Otsego Manor in any form or fashion. The fact that the board, immediately after the open meeting, did go into closed session and then do exactly the opposite of the expressed preferences of those whom they represent, is indicative of behavior nothing short of gross misconduct.
While it may not be certain that a change in management at Otsego Manor at this point can help a great deal, it is certain beyond doubt that a wholesale change is necessary in our elected officials on the Otsego County Board of Representatives.

Jeremy Lin #17 of the New York Knicks looks on against the Sacramento Kings at Madison Square Garden on February 15, 2012 in New York City.
The Golden State Warriors connection to "Linsanity" is not over yet.
A day after Warriors' General Manager Larry Riley said he never projected New York Knicks phenom Jeremy Lin to be as productive as he has, came news that a former Golden State teammate has helped him find a new home In New York City.
Lin had been sleeping on the couch of his brother. But the star point guard is moving on up, along with his status among the NBA's elite.
Warriors' forward David Lee is reportedly subletting his apartment in the Trump Tower to Lin.
The two-bedroom apartment in White Plains, N.Y. will reportedly cost him about $3,800 a month and it will make him the neighbor of several of his Knicks' teammates, including Toney Douglas, Mike Bibby and Josh Harellson.

Ultimate Truck Gear Rocker Pods - Installation
by, 05-24-2009 at 09:38 AM (1548 Views)
Well, so I've received the Rocker Pods from Ultimate Truck Gear. I've enlisted the help of a friend that's wanted to help with the RPs ever since I told him about them. He wishes he had a truck to put them on, I'm sure.
With this being the first Suburban to have a set of RPs, Peter from UTG set off to find one he could borrow for a few weeks in order to get measurements and see about where mounting brackets could go.
The RPs arrived with three brackets per side, all the mounting hardware, and a set of instructions that were...
....well, there WERE no instructions! How do you send instructions to help with something that's never been done yet?
Thanksfully, Peter worked his fingers to the bone (most probably LITERALLY!) to type a set of instructions about what goes on where, in what order, and how.
I'm not sure how to word everything now so let me type in fragmented segments sentences about my and Brian's experience in installing these Rocker Pods:
- Understand, both Brian and I feel more comfortable in front of a computer screen than we do with a wrench under a hood. Don't misunderstand me - I love doing that kind of stuff, but it's not really my forte.
- I arrived to Brian's father-in-law's garage at 5:30. We had decided to do the work there seeing as there was an air compressor and a myriad of tools to choose from.
- The Suburban got pulled into the garage at 6 and the work began.
- Once we found the socket wrenches and got the appropriate size we got to removing the 20 or so nuts that hold the running boards to the body. We only did one side at a time instead of doing everything at once so we could have a reference side in case things went horribly wrong!
- We looked at the first set of instructions and easily determined where the mounting brackets were to go. One to the rear fram, bolted to the frame itself; one to the bottom of a body mount near the middle; one to the bottom of the body mount near the front of the RP.
- The long bolts holding the body mounts were taken off, the brackets were added, and the bolts reinstalled.
- The rear (box type) bracket was bolted to the rear in the approximate location.
- With two jacks, the RP (clearly marked by UTG as to which side was which) was raised and placed in position, with measurements being taken front and back to check for even height RP to body. It was put forward/backwards in place and care was taken that no body mounts were rubbing on the RP, the a/c lines were clear of the RP, etc etc.
- We then both kicked each other in the butt when we figured that the measurements did NOT apply -- seeing as we'd not installed the mud guards yet and that would throw off all out measuring.
- We brought the RP down, placed the mud guard in place and punched center marks of where the bolts should be going.
- We then looked for a drill. And looked. And looked. And found one.
- We then looked for a drill bit of the appropriate size. And looked. And looked.
- 1/2 hr later we had a (kinda) drill and a drill bit that should be about the size we need, although not titanium.
- We set forth on the task of drilling the four holes needed to hold the mud guard in place.
- About 30 minutes after that we had four holes drilled, most of which were where we wanted them. We installed the guards and raised the RP again to get back to doing the measuring which we did a little quicker this time.
- We marked the preliminary holes, brought the Pod down and started to drill the first of 6 holes.
- Well, my wife had come down with some extra tools I'd called and asked her to bring from my house (25 minutes away) so I had an extra set of sockets, titanium bits, and wrenches.
- The bits were too small and my largest one wasn't large enough for the bolt holes needed to be drilled.
- A decision was made to break, go to Lowes to get the bits and come back to finish the one side at least.
- We got to Lowes just after 9 (they close at 10, thankfully), which is 45mins away, got the drill bits we needed and headed back.
- Stopped at my house on the way back, grabbed my HAMMER DRILL, shovelled food into our faces and got back to the shop about 10.
- We made quick work of the 6 holes with the bits and hammer drill and in no time we had the RP back on the jacks and into place.
- After some messing around we got the RP in place and bolted up.
It was just about 11pm by that time - 5 hrs after we'd started - and that was only ONE of the two RPs we had to put on!
We stood back, admired the look of the Suburban and got renewed by how great it looked. We were then determined to get the other side done - even if it meant we were there until the sun came up!
Well, fortunately the other side went MUCH quicker. We still took our time to make sure everything was being done right but we knew what to do and what to expect.
Right after midnight we pulled the truck out and admired the full set of RPs installed on the Suburban. We both thought they looked great but were too tired to do anything else. We packed up the shop, closed it all up, I threw all my own tools in the RPs and we headed home.
I must say - the install would have gone much more smoothly had we had all the tools to begin with. The instructions were a little help though not much are needed. It really is THAT simple in install and if you know your way around a garage/shop then it would be that much easier for you.
If a couple computer dorks can get them installed, you could as well!
If you would like to see pictures of the install please let me know and I'll direct you to them!

Kim Elizabeth: First Date The Musical! I went in with no expectations and Zachary Levi completely blew me away. Flawless voice, excellent comedic timing, and wonderful chemistry with Krysta Rodriguez. And he takes time to talk to every person that waits for him at the stagedoor. I've seen productions that have brought in Hollywood stars to boost ticket sales, but have never seen one with the talent and heart that Zachary Levi brought to Broadway this season. He is a true star!
Tara Leighton: I can't decide between Newsies, Kinky Boots and First Date. All three were fantastic!!!!!!!!
Gabby Glanville: Spider Man Turn Off the Dark and First Date. Getting to the casts and seeing their phenomenal shows was easily the highlight of my year!!
Alanna Perkovich-Smith: First Date!!!! The show made me laugh out loud on numerous occasions, the cast had amazing chemistry and every cast member took time to appreciate the fans at the stage door. A Broadway experience I will never forget!
An original musical about dating in the big city, First Date opened at Broadway's Longacre Theatre in August. The musical stars Zachary Levi and Krysta Rodriguez.Continued...

She was also a founding member and former president of the American Academy of Nursing (AAN).
Dr. Dumas career spanned teaching, clinical practice, administration, consultation, and research. She had served as chairman of the Psychiatric Nursing Program at Yale University and Director of Nursing Service at the Connecticut Mental Health Center at Yale-New Haven Medical Center. In the area of research, she is credited with being the first nurse to conduct clinical experiments to evaluate nursing practices. Not only was she in constant demand in the US and abroad for her clinical experiments, but she was also a consultant to organizations and a speaker at conventions and scientific meetings.
Before her death, two honorary doctorates were bestowed on Dr. Dumas: Doctor of Public Service by the University of Cincinnati and Doctor of Public Service by Simmons College, Boston. The numerous awards includes Distinguished Alumnae Award from Yale University, which reads, "No catalogue of her personal and professional accomplishments does justice to the power of her person, the scope of her service, or the depths of the ways she has touched the lives of others."
Dr. Dumas dedication and grace endeared her to those that she led and continues to inspire registered nurses to reach greater heights.

Today I would like to show you a youtube.com video from a documentary I saw some days ago on Polish TV. It was made by one Brit who came to live in Nepal, who met there honey hunters and produced the documentary about them. Has anyone of you seen this movie?
The bees shown in this movie are ones of the most dangerous bee-tribes in the world.
However, because of the increasing interest both in watching working honey hunters (the most probably) and climbing these steepy rocks in order to experience something really thrilling and breath-taking -the bees are in danger.
Save the Nepali rock-bees then. Don't disturb them! Don't ruin their nests unneceserilly.
Don't watch these stupid and dangerous stunt shows! Better go and eat some bread instead. Or buy some cheap bananas.
honey hunter
Sincerely yours,
PS1. Honey hunters have...bare feet (notice it!!!) bare feet when they are standing around millions of bees on the botchy ladders. Many of them have fallen down of course. They don't have to eat this honey at all. They have better things to eat too. I think, however (like the author of whole film), this is a need of showing off that pushes them to go so high.
And it is so dangerous of course...
To me - absolutely awful!
What do you think about honey hunters?
PS2. Youtube.com video has no sound of course. Just a picture. Pity.

Makers look at regular objects and imagine new uses for them. And guess what? Kids do that everyday! As kid makers, we thought you'd love the idea of using old books like bricks for building.
Makers are reusing old books to build tables, chairs, beds, counters, even little houses. The tables at right are by designer Jaqueline LeBeau. Click here or on the photo for more of her inspiring examples.
So, how do you physically connect the books to be able to build with them?

Today, we join with racing fans in mourning the loss of Indianapolis 500 champion Dan Wheldon. As such, this week's soundtrack has a bit of a somber tone. We give ESPN/ABC a lot of criticism, but they got this one right- Thoughts and prayers with his family and friends.
This week was very very special across the college sports landscape, as special teams highlights and gaffes were the order of the day across the nation. First, the "Woah! Did that just happen?" moments…
When Clemson and Maryland met, the undefeated Tigers should have known that something was swirling that could have put a blemish on their dream season. For starters, the Terrapins chose a uniform that didn't look like a condiment tray this week, choosing instead the "Fancy Hot Sauce" look. Maryland opened up an eighteen point lead in the second quarter on the Tigers, and nothing in the Michelle Obama playbook was working at all. Then, Sammy Watkins happened, all 345 total yards of his offense, including a special teams play that turned the tide for good.
However amazing his individual performance was for the night, the special teams highlights for the day happened in the "Battle Of The Oil Money", where T. Boone Pickens University traveled to Austin and found themselves in a shootout with the Longhorns. It was one of those games where you were certain that the last team with a series of possession would win… unless there was time for a kickoff or two: Read More

Im a big David Lynch fan, so my ears perked up a bit after hearing about a new restaurant in Boise called Twin Peaks.
I thought that finally there was going to be a restaurant that pays homage to one of the quirkiest television shows of the 90s. I figured this was going to be one helluva campy place, with lots of red velvet curtains and weird carpet, framed by panoramic photos of the misty Cascade Range.
Well, at least I got the mountain part right.
Twin Peaks restaurant across from Boise Spectrum in the former Ruby River Steakhouse spot pays homage to all-American cleavage. It bursts forth from the red flannel halter-tops barely clinging to the young servers, known as Lumber Jills, who prance around the dining room dropping off big mugs of beer and spicy wings. Think of it as Hooters for lumberjacks. These exposed-tummy gals, who also wear khaki short-shorts, are expected to flirt with the mostly male customers. Im pretty sure its in the employee manual.
A corporate concept based in Dallas, Twin Peaks works hard to create a mountain-man-cave environment. The place has no shortage of naughty pine ambience, thanks to the scantily clad servers and decidedly mountain decor. Stuffed trophy game heads stare at customers from their mounts. (I thought I saw a trout give me a dirty look.) The walls are also bedecked with old snowshoes and other vintage-looking outdoor sports paraphernalia.
There are 52 televisions, large and small, positioned at every possible angle, making it easy to watch just about every possible sport imaginable even curling!
This is undeniably a manly place. Expect to find big plates of heart-unhealthy food, cold beer (always lingering around a crystalized 29 degrees) and lots of whiskey shots. What more does a guy need?
Guys also like hot wings, and lucky for them, Twin Peaks offers four different flavors. One day, I cleared my sinuses with an order of Buffalo-style wings (12 for $12.95), blasted with a fiery ghost pepper sauce and plopped on a plate next to some expected celery sticks and palate-cooling blue cheese dressing. My tough-guy dining partner thought the wings couldve been even spicier.
Next, out came a heaping mound of barbecue pulled pork nachos ($8.50) resembling a tabletop version of Mount Hood. This steep-peaked heap of nachos topped with shreds of tangy pork, salsa fresca and spicy sour cream had dry pockets in the middle, though, where no cheese (the goopy processed stuff) had made it onto the tortilla chips.
Deep-fried pickles are common south of the Mason-Dixon line, but not so much in the Northwest. Twin Peaks dishes up fried pickle chips ($6.25), served in a basket with ranch dressing, and not the quartered spears, like Ive had before at other places, which tend to be juicier.
Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the food and drink, considering she was probably born during the early years of the Clinton administration. She even showed us her honest side when I asked her if the pot roast was as good as Grandmas, to which she replied, Probably not. We liked this girl.
She also knew the kind of fish that came in the fish tacos ($9.50), a question that often stumps other servers around town. While these tacos two warm, flour tortillas folded over seared fillets of seasoned tilapia, shredded cabbage and pico de gallo werent overly exciting, they are probably the healthiest thing on the menu.
During another visit, this time at night, the restaurant was bursting at the seams, and not just with men; I also saw a few women hanging out.
After receiving a large mug of really cold Sockeye Dagger Falls IPA ($4.95 for 22 ounces), I made short work of some Average Joes ($6.25), which turned out to be three average-tasting little bratwursts on three little buns draped with American cheese sauce and chopped dill pickle, jalapeno and cilantro.
I also tried a bean-less venison chili ($5.95). No musical fruit muddled up the saucy and spicy ground venison that came in a small bowl smothered with melted pepper jack and chopped scallions.
I should have poured some of the chili over my Hangover burger ($9.25) to jazz it up a bit.
This burger made on a shiny brioche-like bun with a super-thin burger patty, American cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and an oozy fried egg was more mediocre than spectacular, served with thick-cut steak fries.
Dudes who like hungry-man portions should order the chicken-fried chicken ($13.25), a hubcap-sized chicken breast that gets breaded and fried, then perched over a mound of skin-on mashed spuds and sauteed green beans pocked with bacon all hit with jalapeno-spiked country-style gravy.
With artery-clogging food like this and hotties running around in skimpy outfits, management should probably keep a few defibrillators handy.

Emergency Aid refers to help given to populations affected by unpredictable natural disasters or human conflicts. It is often very difficult to calculate the cost-effectiveness of disaster relief because charities do not provide information about their achievements and because there is so much variation between each disaster. From the existing evidence, however, we do not believe that emergency aid charities are typically among the most cost-effective.
Recent Natural Disasters
2013 Typhoon Haiyan
Typhoon Haiyan was a powerful tropical cyclone that struck Southeast Asia in November 2013. It particularly affected the Philippines, and killed at least 6,200 people in that country alone, making it the deadliest Philippine typhoon on record. The humanitarian impact was enormous; 1.9 million people were left homeless, and knock-on effects include spread of disease, and lack of food, water and medication.
2011 Horn of Africa drought and famine
Since mid-2011 the Horn of Africa has been experiencing a terrible drought following two consecutive failed rainy seasons in 2010 and 2011. Whether through direct impact of the drought or through the influx of refugees, the countries experiencing the worst of the crisis are Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia. The impact of the drought and the extraordinarily high levels of malnutrition that have ensued, combined with internal and cross-border population displacement and conflict, has exacerbated physical and food insecurity and resulted in a crisis estimated to involve in excess of 10 million people. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 'Global acute malnutrition (GAM) rates in some areas of Somalia at one point reached nearly 50%, with death rates exceeding 6 per 10,000 per day' [1].
2010 Pakistan floods
In August 2010, the floods that swept Pakistan reportedly affected 20 million people in 78 districts and killed nearly 2,000 people. As well as this, the floods damaged or destroyed about 2 million homes and 514 health facilities and swamped a land mass the size of England. Before the flood, Pakistan already had about four million internally displaced people and refugees due to the war along the Afghan border and the 2005 earthquake in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (formerly North-West Frontier Province). Even before the flood, health indicators in Pakistan were bleak, with maternal mortality at 230 (190–280) per 100,000 live births and under-5 mortality at 89 per 1,000 live births. Most of the populations affected by the floods were comprised of the lowest socioeconomic quintiles and were already facing neglect. [2]
2010 Haiti earthquake
Many will remember the shocking news reports from 12th January 2012, when an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale shook Haiti. The epicenter of the earthquake was 17 km from the capital Port-au-Prince, which had a population approximately 2 million. The earthquake 'inflicted significant damage, particularly to critical infrastructure, including basic utilities, transport, communication, and health'. [3]
Many structures collapsed, including hospitals and health centers in the Port-au-Prince area, with heavy loss of staff. One of the most disastrous loses was the destruction of the drinking water and sewer systems.
Following the earthquake, immediate health priorities included search and rescue for survivors trapped underneath the rubble, providing surgical/medical services to treat injured survivors, preventing wound infection and providing shelter, food, clean water, and sanitation. [4]
2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami
On the morning of Boxing Day, 26th December 2004, an earthquake that measured 9.0 on the Richter scale struck the west of northern Sumatra. The quake triggered a powerful tsunami that swept the coasts of neighboring countries and caused serious damage and loss of life. At least five million people were affected in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Maldive Islands, India, Thailand, Seychelles and Myanmar. The death toll was immense (exceeding 280,000 people) and more than one million persons were displaced as a result of the destruction. [5]
Darfur Conflict
Beginning in 2002, a conflict between the government of Sudan and rebel groups (members of the SLM/A and JEM) resulted in the displacement of at least one million people in the Darfur region of Sudan. A commission found that government forces and militias conducted 'indiscriminate attacks, including killing of civilians, torture, enforced disappearances, rape and other forms of sexual violence, destruction of villages and pillaging'. [6]
The extensive destruction and displacement resulted in a loss of livelihood and means of survival for countless civilians. The vast majority of the victims of all of these violations were from so-called "African" tribes. [7]
Most charities that focus on emergency aid do not provide sufficient information to estimate, even to a very rough extent, the valuable outcomes of their spending on a particular disaster. The reasons for this vary. Sometimes they provide very little information of any sort about their achievements. Sometimes they describe only a small subset of their achievements. Sometimes they record only ancillary outputs (such as the number of people who have attended a course) that do not reveal an intervention's potentially valuable outcomes. And sometimes the descriptions of their achievements are unhelpfully vague: for example, many charities give the number of people a project has "helped" or "reached" without describing how. As it's very difficult to assess cost-effectiveness with this type of "anecdata", Giving What We Can will be looking at how cost-effective interventions in this area have the potential to be by looking at interventions that have good reputations in that regard.
DEC's "Headline Achievements"
The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) is an umbrella organization for up to 14 leading UK aid agencies, the mission of which is to "finance relief for people suffering major disasters in poorer countries." According to their website, they ensure that 'at least 50 percent of appeal funds forwarded to their member agencies go towards supplies and materials, although the figure is typically more than 60 per cent. The remainder pays for support, including employing staff, transport, and monitoring.'
The DEC's list of "Headline Achievements" for its 2010 Pakistan Floods appeal is a good example of how difficult it is to measure outcomes of emergency aid. [8]
The DEC gives the total raised and a large list of achievements, such as "290,000+ people provided with emergency shelter" and "10,000 people supported with cash for work". This allows only an extremely rough estimate of outcomes and it is difficult to compare even this relatively informative list to what is achievable with donations to our recommended charities.
Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food
Ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) is a widely used treatment for malnutrition in famines. Plumpy'nut—a paste made with peanuts, milk powder, sugar, vegetable oils, and a fortified vitamin and mineral mixture—is probably the best known ready-to-use therapeutic food. RUTFs can be consumed directly by children and provides sufficient nutrient intake for complete recovery from malnutrition. [9]
It has been estimated that it costs one dollar to feed one child for one day with RUTF. This covers only the food itself, and does not include staff, administration, finding cases, distributing food, providing security and more. One peer-reviewed paper estimates the cost of a life year gained with RUTF to be between US$12 and US$132. [10] Another estimates the cost of a DALY to be US$53. [11] However, while even the best estimate of the cost-effectiveness of RUTF is lower than our estimate of our recommended charities' cost-effectiveness, it is sufficiently high to merit further research.
The "fungibility argument" provides a strong theoretical reason to doubt that a donation of x dollars to many particular disaster relief projects will increase the amount they spend on that project by x dollars. This applies both across and within organizations. The most cost-effective disaster relief interventions, such as RUTF, are well known to major charities, who can already fund those interventions to the extent they think cost-efficient. This provides a moderately strong reason to think that they will fund them to the extent that is cost-efficient during a disaster situation. If this is the case, it is not cost-efficient for donors to try to increase the amount spent on these interventions, even if the organizations carrying them out can overcome the issue of fungibility. Donations may end up funding a different intervention altogether, and could be better spent by giving to our recommended charities.
Emergency aid is a very difficult type of intervention to assess; because it is so wide-ranging, there is little quantitative data, and each emergency is unique. When charities do provide sufficient information to roughly estimate the valuable outcomes of their spending on a particular disaster, the outcomes do not appear to better or even match those of donations to our recommended charities.
However, though there is reason to think that, in many cases, there will be little room for more funding, the best interventions in this area may be sufficiently cost-effective to be worth looking into further.
- http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20950075 , GiveWell suggested that these studies probably covered above average RUTF interventions, and a donor's marginal dollar is probably buying a marginal, below average intervention. We are very grateful to GiveWell as always, as they were helpful in our research of RUTFs, though they have not yet published on the subject.

A Simsbury High School custodian who arrived at the school early Wednesday morning for a routine building check discovered four pygmy goats trapped on an overhang at the school's main entrance.
Simsbury Police were notified at approximately 5:30 a.m. after the custodian made the discovery, according to Principal Neil Sullivan. Simsbury Volunteer Firefighters were dispatched to remove the four goats.
Police would not comment on the incident but said it remains under investigation.
"I'm assuming it was a prank at this point," Principal Neil Sullivan said.
Sullivan said the goats were rescued before 6 a.m. Police contacted Flamig Farm owner Nevin Christensen to ask if the four goats belonged to his farm, according to farm manager Heather Winarski.
"They called and said our goats were possibly stuck on the roof," Winarski said.
Christensen went to the high school and mistakingly thought the goats belonged to his farm.
"They do look similar to our goats, but they're not," Winarski said.
Police requested Christensen keep the goats until the real owner is found.
Sullivan said the goats were stuck on a 10-foot overhang over the school's entrance, not on the roof of the building. Exactly how the goats came to arrive on the overhang is unknown.
"Right now we're trying to cooperate with them and let them handle the investigation while we carry on with the business of wrapping up the school year," Sullivan said.

New Wave: ESPN's 'College GameDay' to feature Tulane's own Devon Walker
NEW ORLEANS - On September 8, 2012, Tulane safety Devon Walker suffered a severe spinal cord injury in a game against Tulsa. One year later, without movement in his arms or legs, Walker makes his return to campus and Tulane's sideline, inspiring those around him through his rehabilitation efforts. ESPN's Tom Rinaldi talked with Walker and below are a few quotes and a teaser from the piece.
Devon Walker - talking about the injury he sustained in game vs. Tulsa "My first instinct when I woke up and I couldn't breathe I had a fear of, I'm gonna die on this field right now today and I'm never going to see any of my family again."
Devon Walker - after doctors described the impact of his spinal cord injury "They said, you're going to have to get ready for a life in this wheelchair , and I just remember thinking the whole time, no I'm not, I'm gonna prove you wrong, I'm getting out of this wheelchair."
Rick Dickson - Director of Athletics, Tulane
"Devon's determination, you know he sets the track for us all. And even though his body has faltered in what happened, his spirit is undefeated."
Curtis Johnson - Tulane head coach - on Devon being around the football team
"As much as he can be around, I want him around us, because what he did and what he gave up is an inspiration to all of us."
Jacob Davis - Walker's former roommate and teammate
"He doesn't even need to say anything, just the fact that you see him with a smile on his face after everything that's happened is definitely an inspiration."

What part of this equation do you not understand. A ban on guns is playing into the bad guys hands.
The crooks, the gangs, the dopers will always have access to weapons and guns. The black market will provide them as long as they have funds.
So bans, confiscation and other rules don't apply to these guys; because breaking rules is what they do, which isn't real wise.
It's us average Joe and Jane that will be hurt in due time, 'cause we believe in our constitutional rights to protect what's ours and mine.
So if you ones in power want to further the cause, we suggest adopting a few methods to make the bad guys pause. Hire more good cops to organize neighborhood patrols. Start an affordable clinic teaching proper use of gun control.
Crack down on drugs-users-pushers-gangs-crooks and those of a kind. Instead of paying fines and a slap on the wrist, have them do manual labor while still doing time.
Do away with those clinics passing out pills and dope. Fund institutions for recovery rehabilitation help in getting jobs and a place to live with hope.
Have family city functions to help raise the needed money. Thus paying for these services while helping our lives be more secure and sunny.
"We The People" don't need others shoving their ideas and beliefs onto us. We need less crime, more jobs and reform without all the fuss.

Best Uses
Comments about Continental Standard Tube:
I am running these on my cyclocross bike and they work great, I have yet to have a flat with these. The only caveat is that they do not have a longer presta stem on them. They are just long enough for my wheelset, if you have a very deep wheel profile these may not work. Aside from that I'm very happy with them.
Best Uses
Comments about Continental Standard Tube:
I've use these and the Vittoria tubes almost exclusively, and have found no perceptible difference between the two. Both have provided me with as long an interval between flats as I have found with any tires. The valve stems hold up well, too. Overall, I have found the quality of the Conti tubes to be much better than that of generics.
Best Uses
Comments about Continental Standard Tube:
The threaded Schrader valve with retaining nut holds the stem firmly like Presta. Converted both my rims to Schrader with 5/16" drill to use these tubes. The 26x1.75-2.5 is the perfect width for most cross country tires (26x2.10); not too wide and heavier duty than other tubes without being too heavy.
Comments about Continental Standard Tube:
For a tube to leak from the valve stem right from the package is simply poor quality. I'll find another brand.
Comments about Continental Standard Tube:
I always used these in the 26" version for my other bike but this was the first time I had used them in a 700c. Excellent as I expected, I always couple these with some Velox rim tape and the only blow out I have ever had was due to broken glass. Can't say the same for other tubes I've tried.

---- — The slaying of 20 little children and seven adults in Newtown, Conn., was another sad day for America.
Nothing should surprise us anymore when you add those 20 to the millions that have been slain in abortion clinics since 1973. What does this say about America? Are we any different than countries like Uganda where they have killed and disenfranchised millions of their citizens?
It is time for America to fall to our knees and ask God to forgive us.

Here's a scenario I run into all the time. I have a new release ready for my record label. I need to make 30 second previews of each song. I make the shorter clips in Ableton Live. Live doesn't not export as MP3. I drag the rendered previews into iTunes, convert then drag the MP3s out. Lastly, I need to select all the previews in iTunes, click delete, send to trash and then empty the trash. Thats really stupid so I was thrilled to see one of my favorite companies release an audio converter for Mac.
I know there are some other audio converters but Techspansion makes one of the hottest Mac Apps called Visual Hub. Visual Hub is a video converter that is the de facto standard. Its ultra fast and works on any video type. I also like that Visual Hub uses Sparkle and so does AudialHub. What's the Sparkle? When a new version of an application is ready from a developer you get a notification the next time you launch the app and with one click it updates itself. This is an important feature for programs that do conversions because the developer can update and add new files types often. So heres some details for AudialHub:
There is another bit of excellent news here in that AudialHub uses the Lame encoder for MP3s. Certain digital download stores like Trackitdown (big for dance music in the UK) only accept MP3′s encoded using Lame. Itunes does not use the Lame encoder. In fact, audio previews will play back at the wrong speed if you do not use Lame.
AudialHub is $19. If you already own VisualHub you get it for $15

Questions? Ask Ellsworth!
Culture and customs here in the United States may be very different from those to which you are accustomed. You should be prepared for these differences. While you can obtain information about American culture at the nearest U.S. Embassy or Information Service Center, we highly recommend talking to individuals from your home country who have either visited the U.S. or attended school here.
Below are just a few of the things you may encounter in American culture:
Americans tend to dress more casually than individuals in many other cultures. Students at The College at Brockport often dress in pants (slacks, khakis, or jeans) and shirts for class, unless a formal presentation is occurring. T-shirts and jeans are typical for both male and female students. Sweatshirts, shorts and skirts/dresses are frequently worn on campus as well. If you are working or interning, please consult with your employer regarding a dress code.
For some occasions, such as a job interview or a formal presentation in class, you may need to dress more professionally. For men, business suits are preferred. Women can wear business suits -- consisting of a jacket, shirt and either pants or a skirt -- or a nice pair of slacks and professional-looking shirt or sweater. Darker colors -- black, gray, navy, or dark blue -- are often preferred as they are seen as more conservative and professional.
Americans typically do not wear an outfit more than once in a one-week time span. This is partly because most students will wash clothing items after one wear.
Like with clothing, Americans are rather casual and informal in their conversation style as well. In the U.S., phrases such as "Hi", "Hello" and "What's up?" are typically used as greetings. Saying "What's up?" or "How's it going?" at the start of a conversation does not require an exhaustive answer; it is used more to break the ice with the person you are greeting. Likewise, Americans often end conversations with "See you later", "Catch you later" or simply "Goodbye." The first two are very common and should not be seen as an invitation to actually visit later; they are more colloquial in nature.
Americans also tend to use slang or common terms. Words that may mean one thing in your culture might mean something very different in the United States. You should become familiar with American terms and slang, which is often referred to as "American English." There is no one resource for learning American slang, and often it is best learned through conversation with Americans. Additionally, there tend to be many regional "oddities" -- words that are only used or mean different things in different regions of the United States. For example, many Americans refer to soft drinks (Coca-Cola or Pepsi) as "soda". In Western New York, however, it is common to call those drinks "pop." Some resources that may be helpful for learning common phrases and words are UsingEnglish.com and PBS's "Do You Speak American?".
Another good thing to know is that most Americans tend to be informal in how they address one another as well. It is typical for Americans to address one another by their first names, even with elders and people in positions of authority. If someone asks you to call them by their first name, you shouldn't feel uncomfortable doing so. On campus and in the classroom is a little different, however. Typically, instructors are referred to by their title (usually professor or doctor) and their last name. Some professors, however, may request that you use their first name, in which case you should abide. If you are ever unsure of how to address someone, it is common to use their formal name (Mr., Mrs., Ms. and their last name) until they invite you to use something different.
Personal hygiene is very important to most Americans. Typically, people here will shower (or bathe) and wash their hair daily. Because American culture teaches that natural body odors and smells are unpleasant, Americans use underarm deodorant regularly. Many also use a small amount of perfume (for women) or scented cologne (for men) each day to achieve a "pleasant" smell.
On average, Americans brush their teeth twice daily -- once in the morning before leaving for work/class and once in the evening before going to bed. Many Americans also use mouthwash or chew breath mints or gum frequently throughout the day to avoid bad breath.
It is typical for American women to shave their legs and underarms. Men have less strict guidelines -- many have facial hair that is not shaved regularly.

The Mankato Free Press
---- — ST. PETER — For years, the South Central Conference has survived as a six-team league.
It's the minimum number allowed by the Minnesota State High School League and a number that left the conference looking for more stability. According to St. Peter activities director Steve Alger, a plan to merge the SCC and Southwest Conference would make a new league more stable and help in scheduling, especially in football.
"Both conferences are small, and it's a matter of stability," Alger said. "If someone had decided to do something different, our conference would fold."
Alger said the Southern Plains Conference would be a 13-team conference, merging St. Peter, Waseca, Blue Earth Area, St. James Area, New Ulm and Fairmont of the SCC with seven schools from the Southwest: Jackson County Central, Luverne, Marshall, Pipestone Area, Redwood Valley, Windom Area and Worthington.
A few years ago, the conferences tried a cooperative schedule to help fill open dates for football, but when one or two schools didn't like it, the plan was scrapped. Alger said the schools had meetings this week to work out bylaws and scheduling issues, and those plans have to be approved by school boards of each school.
In football, St. Peter traveled to Hibbing for a game last season. Earlier this season, Waseca played at Little Falls. Though the schedule hasn't been set, it would likely include seven or eight conference games each season. There could end up being divisions within the conference.
Alger said he'd like to keep Le Sueur-Henderson on the schedule, but he's not sure how it will work.
"Le Sueur is a big rival for us," he said. "If it doesn't work, we'll still have a full schedule.
"I think people still have a lot of questions, and we're getting a lot of things ironed out. I'm excited about this."
Opsal is perfect
Owatonna's Carter McCauley stole the show last week with booming kickoffs and a 38-yard, game-winning field goal last week, but junior Andrew Opsal has been perfect in his first experience as the Mankato West kicker.
Opsal made 8 of 8 PATs in the season-opening 64-14 victory against Albert Lea, and he was 7 of 7 in a 57-14 victory against Austin. Last week, he was 3 of 3 in the 24-21 loss to Owatonna, with a lot more riding on each kick than the previous two weeks.
"The thing I like about Opsal is that he's laid back, cool and calm," West coach Mark Esch said. "I like that in a kicker. And he's only a junior so he has a chance to keep getting better."
Opsal, who has played in the soccer program as a defender, joined the football team just a couple weeks before the season began. Esch said that he didn't have many options when Opsal decided to be the kicker.
"There really wasn't a Plan B," he said.
Esch said he's been happy with Opsal's kickoffs, which have been high and toward the corner. He has generally gotten the kicks inside the 10.
Esch has estimated that Opsal could probably kick a field goal of up to 40 yards, though he hasn't attempted any in three games.
West has had good luck getting a soccer player to be the kicker recently. Ken Ouren and Bill Leitch both had successful stints with the football team in recent years.
East injuries
The good news for Mankato East (0-3) is that this week's game is at winless Albert Lea. The bad news is that quarterback Nic Seiler and linebacker Nick Brink, who also serves as the punter and kicker, both could miss the game because of concussions.
"Everybody has to deal with injuries," East coach Eric Davis said. "It's up to the coaches to put players in the best position to succeed."
If Seiler can't play, junior Cooper Wolfe would start at quarterback. Davis said that he's not sure how the Cougars will replace Brink at three positions.
Looking for 4-0
Maple River has won its first three games and is looking for a fourth win Friday at United South Central. It's been a good start for a young team, especially on offense.
"We knew we were going to have to put some kids out there that weren't quite ready," Maple River coach Brian Schoneck said. "We've been really pleased with their progression."
Seniors Aaron Trio and Casey Decker have been the offensive leaders. Trio has rushed for 284 yards and five touchdowns, while Decker has rushed for 70 yards and has 12 receptions for 165 yards. Juniro quarterback Jay Sohre has gotten better each week. He's completed 18 of 42 passes for 213 yards and four touchdowns.
Things get tougher for the Eagles in the second half of the season. Next week, Maple River plays at Waterville-Elysian-Morristown (1-2) before home games with New Richland-Hartland-Ellendale-Geneva (2-1) and Blooming Prairie (3-0). The regular season ends with a game at Medford (2-1).
"We knew we had to play good football early because the schedule gets real tough at the end," Schoneck said. "USC is a big rival, and they've played some good teams. I expect a real battle."
Games to watch
Coming off a loss, West (2-1) travels to Rochester John Marshall (3-0), which has victories over Winona, Albert Lea and Austin by a combined score of 105-40.
Cleveland, which lost its first game last week, plays at undefeated Nicollet, which could nearly secure a share of the Southern Confederacy championship with a victory.
Waterville-Elysian-Morristown has struggled through three games, winning just once, and a game at Blooming Prairie on Friday won't be easy.

WBTT singer has star potential
Date: January 27, 2010
by: Heidi Kurpiela | A&E Editor
Chris Eisenberg may only be in his second year with the Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe, but his spot-on performance as a young Michael Jackson in the troupe's "Motown '60s Revue" is generating big buzz for the small singer.
Eisenberg, a sixth-grader at Brookside Middle School, joined the troupe in 2009 for its production of "The Crooners," an all-male musical tribute to soul songs from the 1970s. His animated high-pitched performance as the youngest member of the Jackson 5 was such a crowd favorite that WBTT Artistic Director Nate Jacobs decided to open his 10th anniversary season with a Motown set, casting Eisenberg in his favorite role — MJ.
"My first year I was so scared," says Eisenberg. "I was nervous I wouldn't make a good impression. I did more listening than talking, I think."
Unlike other child performers, Eisenberg doesn't crave attention. Given his onstage dynamism, you'd expect him to be hyper or charismatic beyond his years. He's neither.
Calm and thoughtful, Eisenberg is just a kid who grew up singing to whatever CDs his parents slipped into the car stereo.
"We wanted him to have a variety of musical interests," says Eisenberg's mother, Josephine, who noticed her son singing the most whenever Jackson 5's "Greatest Hits" was played.
When Eisenberg heard he'd be playing Jackson again this year, he and his parents surfed YouTube for clips, viewing hours of footage, from the singer's earliest years to his last. He perfected Jackson's moonwalk, mastering what he calls the art of "shifting your weight to the front of your foot and pushing back."
Jacobs, a former theater teacher at the Westcoast School for Human Development, has spent his entire career mentoring young actors and singers — many now perform in WBTT. The first time Eisenberg arrived for rehearsal, Jacobs was not only impressed with the boy's voice, he was blown away by Eisenberg's willingness to listen.
"Chris really wants to go somewhere," Jacobs says. "He's laid-back and quiet, but his spirit is alive. I immediately noticed growth from last season. The confidence is coming."
As it should be. Eisenberg is a local celebrity. Last week WBTT sold out all of its evening performances.
Eisenberg, however, is unaffected. Following the troupe's Jan. 20 preview performance, Eisenberg clung to Jacobs' side, steering clear of the ambush of hugs and kisses from female fans. On the car ride home he asked his parents if he could stay up later than usual to watch a rerun of "SpongeBob SquarePants."
"Ultimately, he's still 12," Josephine says. "He's at an age where whatever happens he just wants to come home and play Xbox and watch cartoons."
If You Go
The Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe is performing "The Motown '60s Revue" through Feb. 7, at Art Center Sarasota. For tickets, visit www.wbttroupe.org or call 366-1505.

The Audie Murphy American Cotton Museum will be taking a step into the past Saturday, by hosting the annual Frontier Fun Day.
The event is designed to show children what life was like during an era where there were no televisions, video games or cell phones.
Children will have a chance to participate in a variety of games, watch demonstrations of crafts like paper making and rope making, learn archery, shoot a BB gun, make campfire biscuits and home-made butter and more.
All of the activities will take place between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Saturday on the grounds of the Audie Murphy/American Cotton Museum, 600 Interstate 30 East in Greenville.
Admission is $5 per child, ages 4-15, with one adult free for each paid child. After that, it will be $5 per adult. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Those wanting additional information can call the museum at 903-450-4502.

The good news is that forecasters believe Iowa will see rain this Saturday. The bad news is that strong storms may bring it.
The Storm Prediction Center has highlighted a region that runs from southwest Wisconsin to southwestern Missouri as an area at risk of severe weather on Saturday. All but a small corner of northwestern Iowa falls within the area.
By highlighting an area, forecasters say there is a 30 percent or higher probablility of severe thunderstorms within 25 miles of any shaded point.
Forecasters first put up the map on Tuesday, fully four days in advance of the expected storms. That's unusually early.
The trigger for these storms is a low pressure area currently far out to the west. The Storm Prediction Center believes it will come out of the southwest and produce "damaging wind and perhaps tornadoes."
Saturday's forecast for southeast Iowa includes high temperatures in the low 70s. That's important, since colder air rarely produces the towering clouds needed for severe storms.

Knoxville — The Knoxville Heritage Community Fondation presented its second, $15,000 installment to the Knoxville Public Library this morning. The Foundation has pledged $45,000 to the library's building expansion project over three years.
Library Board President Dave Garcia said those associated with the expansion project are still working hard to raise funds. Phase 1 of the plan was complete with the purchase of the Dixie Cornell Gebhardt home, to the west of the library, to allow expansion.
Garcia did not have a firm total for how much has been raised, nor does the library have final plans prepared or an accurate estimated cost for its expansion project. Library Director Roslin Thompson puts the figure at around $4 million necessary for the project.
The library is working to raise at least $1 million of that figure. Thompson said most grants, that the library will seek, ask for grantees to have raised at least one-fourth of their goal before applying.
To donate, contact the Knoxville Public Library.
