The Journal Sentinel's team of Packers beat writers provide the latest news, notes and analysis
Also on Packers' agenda? A decision on A.J. Hawk...
Green Bay --- Today, Charles Woodson was released by the Packers. Could inside linebacker A.J. Hawk be next?
This decision could take a little more time for general manager Ted Thompson. Woodson and Hawk are two different players in two different situations.
Woodson had broken his collarbone twice in three years, was approaching 37 years of age and was due a total of $10 million in 2013. To refresh, check out Tom Silverstein's story on the Packers' salary-cap situation this off-season. By releasing Hawk now, the Packers would acquire a net gain of only $2.25 million. As detailed, the Packers could wait until after June 1 and push Hawk's $3.2 million of prorated signing bonus to 2014 and, thus, be off the hook for Hawk's $5.45 million salary.
Hawk has often been solid in the middle of Green Bay's defense, always drawing steady praise from teammates and coaches for his leadership and reliability. Hawk also rebounded last season with 157 tackles (5 1/2 for loss), cutting down his missed tackles by six. But for the second straight season, he also didn't make many game-changing plays. Hawk has no forced fumbles and no interceptions his last two seasons. This from a player who now has the fourth-highest cap number on the team.
Considering Desmond Bishop (hamstring) and D.J. Smith (knee) are both returning from serious injuries, Green Bay may bite the salary-cap bullet and bring back Hawk. One NFC scout said that Hawk "has some issues," yet added "I don't know if I can pick out a starting linebacker in the league who doesn't."
This salary-cap decision may have more layers to it.
"I like to use to term 'functional,'" the scout said. "Can you function as a defense with the assignments as they're presented to you? He can. Now, does he make a lot of the extra plays, the dynamic plays that people anticipated for a player selected that high? I don't believe that he has necessarily done that. Is he playing to the value of his contract? I don't know. There are so many more elements that just on-field production. You have to bring in what that player does for your whole program."
In that sense, leadership does carry weight, especially with Green Bay releasing Woodson. It's all a balance the Packers must gauge.
How much does Hawk mean to the defense as a whole --- and at what price?
"If you make a financial decision about him and it's not necessarily performance-based, that resonates throughout your locker room," he said. "That's not the culture — or at least not the culture that I would want to present. Now if he's not a leader, if he's just one of the guys in the middle tier or even someone who might be negative in the locker room — and there's a financial thing? — then (expletive) that's a no-brainer. The guys in the locker room will get that. The guys in the locker room just want to be respected to the point where you're going to put good player and good players around them."
This may be a position the Packers look to upgrade by any means necessary, finding a physical, playmaking linebacker to pair with Bishop. Or, quite possibly, they stay the course. A decision on Hawk does not solely boil down to his performance. There may be better options in free agency or the draft, but the Packers are dealing with a tight salary cap. The investments may be spent elsewhere.
"You have to weigh the market and not just the lone individual when you're trying to put that all into perspective," the scout said. "And the market is usually overvalued. It's usually not as good as it's made out to be. Names carry a lot of weight, sometimes more than they should. Maybe a player on the market that everybody thinks is better doesn't necessarily exercise the functions of your defense. You can make that move, pay that money and decrease your team. I think people get caught up in, 'Oh, X player is on the market. You have to go get him. He'll make you better.' Not necessarily."
Time will tell, but on Friday the Packers did gain some more flexibility and clarity with its cap situation.

Good guy, but limited mobility and does not make plays. He is not a difference maker. Too bad he can't be traded.
they're all expendable.
Actually Hawk could be traded and GB would get prob. a 3rd for him.Hes not a highlight film,big playmaker type LB
Def. a disappointment considering the 6th overall pick,you should get more production..BUT, hes solid,reliable ( how many games has he missed injured?) and makes plays,lots of tackles ect.
hey and tramon stunk late in the year. cut him
and pickett cant keep going forever. toast
bishop and his shreddy hammy. trash can
lets just start er over on d!Hide replies
terrible post; just like the post u posted on CW's release saying Ron Wolfe is gona replace TT. Not gona happen. Do u c the free agents coming up? CM3, Rodgers, etc. etc. I for 1 think Greg Jennings is more valuable than AJ Hawk. THis might allow us to sign him. Cut Hawk, maybe resign James Jones (he has 1 yr left). U cud never balance a budget, huh? And this is coming from an Independent (me), not a Republican. As some1 who runs a business, u need to keep the business going. If u have a Chef who lost an arm in an accident and started coming in drunk or late, but used to be the best Chef in your 50 years of owning a restaurant, & u hav another Chef who is cheaper, responsible, and more physically able to do the job, do u let the "bad" Chef go? Of COURSE u do. Economics, bro!
There goes a running back around the right end... where's Hawk? He's tackling the center. There's a tight end breaking free in the middle, where's Hawk? He's hooking the bait on the TE releasing the block to go upfield. There's a TE straight up the middle whistling by Hawk for 30 yards. There's an undersized halfback taking Hawk out of a big third down running play..... Hawk plays every down like he's going up against the tackling dummy in training camp. Useless, useless player. He NEVER makes plays. A joke draft choice whom came as false advertising. Watching him trail on too many big plays is disgusting. Literally disgusting to watch.
Please please please please TT, dump Hawk and let him blow up some other team's defense.
I am not to sure what to do with Hawk which is why I am so glad I am not the GM. Hawk has his upsides and his downsides good games bad games. He is nothing spectacular so one side is go ahead release him what have we got to lose and the other says lets keep him and lets have his position up for grabs and see who wins. Lot of interesting events involving the releasing of Woodson but this release won't hinder the Packers defense.
The Packers defense improved immensely this season from last. They did so in large part because of all the young talent they brought in during the offseason. Rookies Casey Hayward, Mike Daniels, Jerron McMillian, Dezman Moses and Nick Perry (before his injury) all made significant contributions to the team. With a full season under their belts and another offseason, they should be even better.
With Clay Matthews, Morgan Burnett, Sam Shields and B.J. Raji all relatively young as well, this Packers defense could be good for a while. They weren't where they wanted to be this season, but they should be even better next year.
Hawk seems like a great guy...passionate about football and smart.
But for what he is paid he should be a top 10 ILB. He's not even in the same zip code.
Pretty easy decision, IMO. Can the Packers find someone who can play at the level of Hawk or better? Absolutely they can. This article says it all, Hawk has not forced a t.o. In TWO Years! That is pathetic. Is anyone else sick of hearing, "great team player, leader, locker room guy, play caller, etc"? Here's a question: can he play football? He is average at best and does not make big plays. So long, dude.Hide replies
Could not have said it best don't feel confident he can turn things around after two straight years only complishing tackling. Despite being only 2.3 Mil its better than nothing.
Hawk is useless and seldom changes the dynamics, he is always blown away unless he is left unblocked. Lump him, take him to the dump and Dump him.Hide replies
R U referring to the strategist Capers?
And...... Replace with who? Dump the 3-4! Doesn't work! OBVIOUSLY!Hide replies
BadgerRick-- We can defiantly find some one through the draft but I can see your point.
Regardless of his terrible 2011 season the story of Hawk's 2012 cannot be told through statistics alone. With Matthews missing four games due to injury plus multiple other injuries to the linebacking unit as a whole, Hawk had arguably one of his best seasons. He struggled at times against Adrian Peterson and Colin Kaepernick, but so have a lot of people.
Hawk was constantly around the ball, as evidenced by his high tackle total, and seemed to thrive with Matthews out of the lineup. The Packers were very banged up at the position and the unit would have been in worse shape without the presence of Hawk. Ted Thompson will make the decision and we shall see what happens and where we go from there.
Go Pack go
Both of the teams that were in the the Super Bowl ran a 3-4.
They must issue stupid pills at Bellevue.
you might wanna brush up on some pertinant background facts before posting.
just a suggestion.
Replace him with Terrell Manning, draft an ILB in the first two rounds, or pick up a veteran FA. Hawk is not that hard to replace. He is a below average player.
i understand why some rail on hawk but he is not below average.
that's a ridiculous notion.
The 3-4 is the problem, no doubt! AJ Hawk should get away from Dum Capers.
Packers have 3 pro bowl caliber players on defense and the WORST effectiveness in the NFL! Thanks for your great insight Capers! 3-4 doesn't work in NFL! Sincerely, Mr. Obvious.

No sporting event elicits more nostalgia from fans than the Masters. The traditions of the tournament are without peer, the legacy forever enriching and enduring. The Masters is like an ancient and treasured relic — what happened in the past is as prominent in our sentiments as the remarkable genius of today's players. These same players, who boast remarkable skills and playing expertise, work with both technology and science which brings about endless questions.
Could they excel with hickory shafts? Could they dance their shots around the pin with two-irons instead of the short clubs that distance off the tee allows them to play with? Could they reach maximum performance without swing gurus, physical fitness coaches, dietitians and sports psychologists?
What we come to recognize is that the story of each tournament and each era is about the competition. It's about who can score the best over four rounds of competition at a storied golf course that has as much allure to the past as it does for the next generation of superstars.
Who among us is not intrigued by the prospects of a Tiger Woods rebirth? Who is not charmed by the competency of the new faces on tour — McIlroy, Bubba and the recent favorites, which include Russell Henley, the University of Georgia graduate who has already won more than $1.3 million and stands No. 11 on the PGA Tour's money list?
It is not always the newsmakers who captivate us at Masters time. It is also the old-timers and those from the past who enrapture us.
Is there anything about Bobby Jones that we have not already heard? Well, did you know that his father, Robert Tyre Jones, was an outfielder for the University of Georgia? When Georgia's most ardent Bulldog, the indomitable Dan Magill, went to interview the great champion Bobby Jones, he asked a simple question. "Why did you not come to Georgia like your daddy?"
Jones, a graduate of Georgia Tech, politely explained, "I just couldn't leave the East Lake Golf Club."
Cliff Roberts, the crusty long-time chairman — autocratic, dogmatic, even charismatic in his own way — what do we appreciate about him?
He was the guy who ran the tournament with remarkable efficiency. He was the one, along with Jones, who had the sense that what were originally the first nine holes should become the last nine. He had an influence on the scorekeeping that endures to this day. Red for scores under par and green for those over par.
Simple yet overpowering in its impact is an accommodation to the fans — whose relevancy remains a staple of Masters function — right on down to the pimento cheese sandwiches that cost $1.50. The Masters is the only big-time sporting event that refuses to gouge its patrons.
Roberts was a New York investment banker, a fact which many are familiar with. But did you know his hometown was Morning Sun, Iowa, population 836?
The fact that the Masters is one of golf's four majors but has remained at the same venue for the ages gives it something extraordinary for the uniting of history and tradition. If you take a seat in the stands at No. 15, you can watch the competitors walk across the Gene Sarazen Bridge as they approach the green. Hard to install a bridge at the U.S. Open or the British Open or the PGA Championship, which all move around year to year.
We can't talk to Sarazen, Sam Snead and Byron Nelson anymore, but their history and legacy remain. We revere their memories and most of all their artistry.
They didn't bomb the ball from the tee to make many courses a pitch-and-putt layout. They had to develop skills to achieve greatness. That, however, is no fault of the younger generation. They, like those before them, must play the hands they are dealt.
As it was in the beginning, the changes be damned, it is the skill that separates the winners from the losers at Augusta.
But isn't it nice that they can make their mark on the most hallowed grounds that golf has to offer?

"We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!
--Paul Laurence Dunbar
from the poem, We Wear the Mask
This Italianate turn-of-the-century structure was the final home of the
poet Paul Laurence Dunbar. It exhibits his literary treasures, many of
his personal items and his family's furnishings. During his short lifetime
Dunbar became known as the poet laureate of African Americans. Drawing
on his observations of society and the experience of his parents--both
former slaves--he gave voice to the social dilemma of disenfranchised
people of his day and became a proclaimer of black dignity.
Born in 1872, Dunbar was ill for most of his life. He died of tuberculosis
in 1906. His mother, Matilda, lived on in the house and kept vigil over
Paul's belongings until her death in 1934. On 23 July 1936, the Dunbar
House became the first state memorial to honor an African American.
In 2002-2003 the site began a capital improvement project. Today, the
Dunbar has been completely renovated and restored to furnishings and wallpapers
common, and some instances exactly, of the time period when Paul and Matilda
lived in the house. A new visitor center was also constructed on site,
containing interpretive panels chronicling Dunbar's life.
Paul Laurence Dunbar State Memorial is also a part of the National Park's
Service's Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park
and the Dayton Aviation Trail. The Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park
commemorates three exceptional men - Wilbur Wright, Orville Wright, and Paul Laurence Dunbar -
and their work in the Miami Valley. The Heritage Trail is made up of the National Park
and four partners, and it contains four separate sites. In addition to
Dunbar State Memorial, they are The Wright Cycle Company building and
Wright brothers' print shop building; Huffman Prairie Flying Field; and
the John W. Berry, Sr. Wright Brothers Aviation Center.

But I'll take what I can get and keep dreaming of Vogue. Maybe I should stop eating now just in case!

We've already shared our love for XPoNential Music Festival, local radio station WXPN's annual celebration of music and good vibes—and perhaps the only opportunity you'll get to see Beck, Jenny Lewis, and Lucius, all in one weekend.
But #XPNFest doesn't just feature big names—every year, festival organizers also make a point to include a healthy slice of local bands, and this year is no exception. Read on for our guide to the Philly bands playing this year's fest—ranging from up-and-comers to the city stalwarts—then see them all live this weekend.

Since its beginnings in 2010, the event developed by So You Think You Can Dance co-creator Nigel Lythgoe—National Dance Day—celebrates all things movement on the last Saturday in July. On Saturday, July 26, Philadelphia has decided to put a local twist on the national occurrence by inviting dancers of all levels to numerous studios around the city for free workshops, performances, and a big party during Philadelphia Dance Day.
The day starts at Headlong Studios in Newbold for a 45 minute fitness dance class that incorporates elements of martial arts, healing arts and dance called NIA, starting at 9 a.m.
A traditional style of dance gets a fitness reboot at 10 a.m. at Major Moment Studio on South Street. Tap shoes aren't required (but wear them if you have them!) at Tap Tonic, where you'll use tap dancing routines to work up a sweat.

What has four wheels, an engine and could arguably make you look pretty cool? Okay, I'll tell: these vintage and antique cars that are on display (or up for auction) at car shows. It's not exclusive to just old-school vehicles, either. All makes, models and years of various rods will be up for your viewing pleasure.
A multi-day auction and viewing affair takes place at Harrisburg, PA's Farm Show Complex and Expo Center from Thursday, July 24 through Saturday, July 26. Gates to the Harrisburg Collector Car Auction open at 8 a.m. each day of the event, where potential buyers and spectators alike can view 1000 cars like a 1970 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 or a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible.
The following day's auction, still at the Farm Show Complex and Expo Center is the Harrisburg Motorcycle Auction on Sunday, July 27. Gates still open at 8 a.m. for appreciators of the 200 bikes they'll have in the expo center.

With the kids home for the summer, it might get a little tricky keeping the entertainment calendar full. Luckily, you don't have to think too hard since these local theaters have stacked this summer's programming with loads of family friendly performances to keep the young ones occupied. From familiar stories to television shows brought to life, the tots will have a blast (and you just might, too).
On Tuesday, July 22 over the course of an hour at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville, PA, a variety of short films will be shown, starting at 10:30 a.m. Appropriate for ages four and up, none of the films top 17 minutes. And you might fool the kids into learning something too: many of the featured shorts are from international filmmakers.
Every Tuesday through Saturday at 10 a.m. until Saturday, August 2, the Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival presents everyone's favorite glass slipper-wearing Disney princess's story on the stage at the Schubert Theater at DeSales University in Center Valley, PA.

In another piece of interesting theater news (but really, does it ever stop around here?) is the upcoming free performances from artist collective Applied Mechanics. Drawing influence from Russian feminist punk-rock group P*ssy Riot, the performers will debut a piece of interactive theatre, We Are Bandits.
Playing with the conventions of protest art, feminism and activism, the theatrical work aims to take the viewer on their own personalized journey through the performance space—Asian Arts Initiative. You'll step into a world already in motion, with multiple stories happening simultaneously and the viewer picks which character or story they'll follow. And play along: Characters will ask you to perform tasks, so join them at a table or answer their question if asked.
Throughout the show you'll experience a rock concert and help enact social change in the scope of the world you've stepped into.

PLATTSBURGH — Plattsburgh High School's varsity football season is over.
Section VII Football Coordinator Mark Farmer said he was notified Wednesday morning that the Hornets will not complete their season.
"I don't have all the details; I know they were struggling with their roster," Farmer said. "I know they were working diligently to keep things going."
Plattsburgh began the season with 21 players and has suffered injuries since then. The Hornets are 0-3 and have been outscored 128-12.
There will be seven teams competing in the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference the rest of the season.
"With eight teams, losing just one affects everybody. But the coaches I talked to (Wednesday), their biggest concern is the kids that lose the opportunity to play football this year. As an educator, your primary focus is opportunities for students.
"I think I speak for all football people in the North Country that we're very sad this has occurred."
There are four weeks left in the regular season. Plattsburgh was scheduled to host Saranac this week, and also had games remaining against Saranac Lake, Peru and Ticonderoga. Section VII is now scrambling to figure out the schedule.
"For the immediate future, obviously they'll all be forfeits," Farmer said. "For the bigger picture, I've reached out to other football coordinators — Section II, primarily — to see if they have open dates."
Peru coach Nick Damiani said he has already lined up a nonconference opponent for Oct. 12, when the Indians were to host the Hornets. But Farmer was not optimistic that the other three teams would be able to fill the hole in their schedule. He said most teams in other sections already have full schedules and also noted that travelling distance could be an obstacle.
The Section VII playoff picture is also clouded by the loss of a team. Peru and Beekmantown are now the only Class B teams in the section. In the recent past, championship games have been played in Week 9, and if a class didn't have enough teams to hold semifinals in Week 8, those teams would play a crossover game instead. But with an odd number of teams, the format is now up in the air.

RENO, NV - A weak cold front to our north will give us a few isolated rain showers in Nevada, but most of those will be well north of the Truckee Meadows.
We will see some wind this afternoon. Expect gusts up to about 30mph in Reno, and closer to 40mph in the more wind prone valleys. It isn't enough wind to do any damage, but it is enough to mess up a hair-do or two.
What the video for a forecast made just for the web.

State Rep. Cameron Sexton (R-Crossville), has been named to the newly created House Business and Utilities Committee, and reappointed to the Health Committee and the Committee on Calendar and Rules for the 108th General Assembly. He will, also, serve on the House sub-committee on Health.
The speaker redesigned the committee structure for the 108th General Assembly which created new committees and merged or split other committees.
The new Business and Utilities Committee was created when the Commerce Committee was divided into two separate committees. In 2012, Tennessee is ranked as the fourth best business climate in America and this specialized committee will continue to play an important part in making sure Tennessee continues to be a business-friendly state, which is of the utmost importance in these trying economic times," stated Sexton."
Last session, Sexton served on the full committee on Health. He will continue in this role for this General Assembly and will serve on the sub-committee as well.
Healthcare has also been a major issue on Tennesseans' minds for over decades, and I am excited about expanding my role on the Health Committee by serving on the sub-committee," stated Sexton.
In addition, Sexton has been re-appointed by House Speaker Beth Harwell to continue his service on the powerful Committee on Calendar and Rules.
The Committee on Calendar and Rules is the last stop for all bills traveling through the committee system. It is also responsible for scheduling floor votes on all legislation. This committee deals with a wide range of issues and legislation on nearly every topic.
I am extremely honored in the confidence Speaker Harwell has expressed to me by allowing me to continue my service on these important committees for the people of the 25th District and the citizens of Tennessee," said Sexton.
Sexton lives in Crossville and represents House District 25, which includes Cumberland, Putnam and Van Buren Counties.

Don't be surprised if the Niners focus on fortifying their defensive line early in the upcoming draft. In a perfect world, we hear, the team wouldn't mind rotating fresh bodies up front more often. For one thing, there are age and injury factors that come into play. DRT Justin Smith is 32 years old, and NT Isaac Sopoaga turns 31 before the start of next season. DLT Ray McDonald is only 27, but his knees have given him problems on and off for a while now. The Niners have no problem with current backups Ricky Jean Francois, Demarcus Dobbs and Ian Williams (word is they particularly like Jean Francois), but we hear more manpower would be welcomed. Breathers were few and far between this season for Smith and McDonald, who performed above and beyond the call of duty and displayed tremendous stamina before wear and tear appeared to take their toll in the last two regular-season games.

Don't miss out on Michael McIntyre in Monmouth
4:44pm Friday 13th April 2012 in Comedy
TICKETS go on sale to see one of the UK's top comedians Michael McIntyre at Monmouth's Savoy Theatre for one day only tomorrow.
He will perform two intimate 'warm-up gigs' on Friday and Saturday, June 8 and 9.
Tickets cost £25 and will be available to personal callers at the theatre in Church Street from 10am tomorrow.
The star of BBC One's Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow and last year's Britain's Got Talent, he performs in Monmouth ahead of his UK Work in Progress tour. On the tour McIntyre will be trying out new material prior to his third UK arena tour. A major draw, his Live & Laughing and Hello Wembley shows have sold over 2.5m DVDs and a third stand-up DVD of the arena tour will be available in mid November 2012. The performances at The Savoy Theatre will both take place at 8pm.
All profits go to the Monmouth Festival to help raise funds for this year's event which takes place between August 17 and 25.

For the past few seasons, Charlestown High School quarterback Aaron Daniel proved he was one of the best players in Indiana.
Next fall, the senior wants to prove he can play football at the NCAA Division I level.
Daniel announced this week that he will be a preferred walk-on for the Indiana University football team in the 2013 season. Daniel got accepted for admission to IU on Monday.
Daniel is excited about the once-in-a-lifetime chance to play at college football's highest level.
"It's just a good opportunity to play Division I football," said Daniel, whose older brother Clay attends IU.
Charlestown coach Jason Hawkins says Hoosiers' assistant head coach and co-defensive coordinator Doug Mallory has been talking to Daniel about playing for IU for the last year and a half. Mallory is the son of former Hoosiers' coach Bill Mallory.
Hawkins and Daniel both confirmed that the IU coaching staff plans on playing Daniel at safety.
"[Doug Mallory] thought Aaron was a good enough athlete to play in the secondary," Hawkins said.
Daniel thinks being a defensive back might be the best chance for him to get playing time as soon as possible.
"I will probably be a safety because it will be the quickest way for me to get on the field," said Daniel, who along with his quarterback duties was a starting safety at Charlestown and was the Pirates' punter and place-kicker.
Daniel had a season to remember last season at Charlestown.
The 6-foot, 190-pound quarterback threw for a school-record 2,075 yards and 36 touchdowns and rushed for 1,766 yards and 32 touchdowns in helping the 12-1 Pirates win the outright Mid-Southern Conference championship and the Class 3A Sectional 23 title.
Daniel was named the News and Tribune Area Player of the Year and garnered a spot on the 2012 Indiana Football Coaches Association Top 50 All-State team. He will be a quarterback for the South squad in the IFCA's Grange Insurance All-Star Classic on Friday, July 19 at North Central High School in Indianapolis.
Daniel broke 18 school records during his Charlestown career, including the all-time rushing and passing marks.
But that did not produce a lot of football scholarship offers from colleges. Daniel says he talked to Ball State and the University of Indianapolis about playing football along with several NCAA Division III schools.
Daniel accepts the challenge of playing Division I football and plans on using the lack of scholarship offers as motivation at IU.
"It's definitely a big challenge for me," Daniel said. "With hardly no schools interested in me, I've got a chip on my shoulder to prove that I can play at that level."
Hawkins says if there is anyone who can handle the challenge, it is Daniel.
"It's a challenge for anybody to play at the D-I level," Hawkins said. "Aaron has not played against that type of competition. But he will do whatever it takes to prove he can play at the Division I level."
Hawkins says Daniel has put on 15-20 pounds of muscle since the end of the 2012 season in preparing for Division I football. Daniel plans on majoring in exercise science at IU.

For Glen Lake, the 369 was the team's second best of the season.

Freshman Nichole Cox led the Lakers, tying for fourth with a 79. Madison Hill carded a 95, Melanie Kulanda 97 and Nicole Pace 98.
For West, freshman Hunter Kehoe shot 86, Taylor Kehoe 88, Emily Northway 100 and Grace Ellul 102.
Pezzetti's 72 was a career best.

Proposition 32, according to its advocates, "stops special interests from taking political deductions from employee paychecks to guarantee every dollar given for politics is strictly voluntary." But critics say: "This measure says it prohibits unions from using payroll-deducted funds for political purposes. It says it also applies to corporations, so it sounds balanced. But 99 percent of California corporations don't use payroll deductions for political giving; they would still be allowed to use their profits to influence elections." Which argument influences you?

Ordinance will allow loan for fire trucks to be refinanced
No additional taxes will be levied — unless county fails to pay debt
by Jeff Neal
Commonwealth Journal
Somerset —
Pulaski Fiscal Court this week passed the first reading of an ordinance that would refinance the county's loan it took out in 2011 for new fire trucks.
The General Obligation Lease Ordinance would refinance the $2.5 million loan at a lower interest rate.
"In layman's terms, we're just refinancing a loan because we're able to save a substantial amount of money, and we're not adding any time to the loan," said Pulaski County Treasurer Joan Isaacs. "Any time we can save money, that's good for the taxpayers."
The debt is repaid through the county's fire fund. That money is generated by the established insurance premium fund tax. There will be no new tax associated with this ordinance, according to Isaacs.
"The legal wording is a little confusing — they call it a lease, but it's basically just a loan," Isaacs said. "And the tax is already there....there will not be a new tax."
The wording of the ordinance does provide for a "direct annual tax on all taxable property within the county" that would be levied "only to the extent that the project revenues, or other revenues received from taxes or other sources, are not sufficient to provide for the full payment of the accruing interest and maturing principle on the Lease each year."
"KACo (The Kentucky Association of Counties) requires that wording (on a possible tax) as a guarantee the loan will be paid," said Pulaski County Attorney Martin Hatfield. "The tax would be enacted only if for some reason the county can't make the loan payments."

The Storm 5 HD Weather team has one goal during severe weather: to be the absolute best source of weather information to keep your family safe. With that in mind, we're proud to offer a proven service to help us in our mission to get severe weather information to you as fast and accurately as possible. It's called WeatherCall.
You now have 2 options for WeatherCall safety alerts - WeatherCall @ Home and WeatherCall Mobile.
WeatherCall @ Home - Based on your street address
WeatherCall @ Home provides personal weather warning phone calls from chief meteorologist Ron Howes, based on your street address. It's the same service NewsChannel 5 has offered for the last two years.
Click HERE to learn more.
WeatherCall Mobile - Based on locations where you frequently have your smartphone
WeatherCall MOBILE provides the same personal weather warning calls as WeatherCall @ HOME, but lets you enter multiple locations and see weather warnings from your smartphone.
This new service also includes the option to upgrade to WeatherCall LIGHTNING. Click HERE to learn more about the service and to sign up.
How does NewsChannel 5 WeatherCall work?
WeatherCall is a very precise storm warning service that uses your street address or predetermined location to alert you by phone or e-mail when you are in a location that is threatened by a tornado or other severe storm.
Those who live within the path of severe weather would get a call from Meteorologist Ron Howes warning them of imminent danger.
WeatherCall combines a new warning system used by the National Weather Service called Storm Based Warnings, which warns only for areas directly in the storm's path rather than for whole counties. This reduces the areal coverage of warning by as much as 75%, making them very accurate. This also means you'll have fewer interruptions for storms that don't hit your neighborhood. When the National Weather Service issues a warning, WeatherCall matches the warned area with your address. If your home is included, Chief Meteorologist Ron Howes will deliver the message directly to your phone at any time, day or night.

MILLSAP – For Mineral Wells head girls basketball coach Ed Shelstead at this time of the season it is all about his personnel learning what he is trying to implement.
For Millsap head girls basketball coach Jackie Jenkins it is about molding a young and inexperienced team in non-district play before league play begins.
The two teams faced off here Tuesday night, and the more experienced Lady Rams shrugged off the Lady Bulldogs' efforts with a 58-41 win.
The Lady Bulldogs (2-4) could not stop Lady Rams senior post Sydney Shelstead, who scored a game-high 23 points and pulled down 13 rebounds.
Jolee Carswell led Millsap with 13 points.
The Lady Rams (3-3) began the game with a full-court press and as a result led 18-7 after the opening period. But when Shelstead got into foul trouble, the Lady Bulldogs went on a late second-quarter run to cut the Lady Rams' lead to five points at the half.
"I thought our pressure defense worked out really well in the beginning," Shelstead said. "But we had to make some substitutions, and we had some breakdowns on block outs.
"The last four minutes of the second quarter was why the game got close. They had about five or six offensive boards for six or eight points."
Sydney Shelstead was a force in the first quarter, scoring 10 points. Her put back with about three minutes left in the half increased the MWHS advantage to 27-15.
But Millsap, courtesy of a pair of layups from Mikelyn Kruger, closed the first half with a 9-2 run and cut the Lady Rams' lead to 29-24.
The Lady Bulldogs cut the lead to 29-26 when Carswell drained a jumper from the lane.
Millsap got a break when Shelstead was whistled for her third foul with 6:27 left in the third quarter.
But the Lady Rams' guards came through and sparked an 11-0 run as senior Niya Benavides canned a three-pointer and a jumper, Sydney and Kennedy Shelstead each scored on layups and Ragland dished a perfect feed to Sydney Shelstead for another layup as MWHS built a 40-26 cushion.
"I think that is the best (guards) Kennedy (Shelstead), Natalie (Ragland), Courtney (Peña) and BB (Bethany Allen) have played all year," Ed Shelstead said.
Millsap cut the lead to 12 points on a pair of free throws by Carswell, but Benavides closed the third-period scoring by hitting a nothing-but-net three-pointer to give MWHS a 45-30 lead as the game moved to the fourth quarter.
A trey and put back by Peña should have put the game out of reach as the Lady Rams built a 50-31 lead.
But Millsap refused to give in and came back with a 7-0 run – courtesy of a jumper each from Melissa Jones and Carswell and a free throw each by Jones, Sydney Herbel and Hannah Hobson – to cut the lead to 50-38.
MWHS closed the scoring on an 8-3 run to take a 17-point win.
"At times we had good effort, but at other times I thought we let up and let them go on runs, which cost us," Jenkins said. "The girls were playing all out and going hard.
"They were blocking out and getting rebounds, and I think we may have stopped doing that later in the game.
"When you have a lot of turnovers and miss a lot of free throws it is hard to beat anybody, especially a good team like Mineral Wells."
Ed Shelstead also saw improvement in his squad.
"We continue to improve, and when Sydney gets smarter and is not getting those fouls we will be in a good place," he said. "I do feel we're getting better every game, and I am pretty pleased."
Jenkins feels the contest showed her a lot about her team.
"We are so young, but I think we are doing OK," Jenkins said. "I have only got seven kids – two of them are freshmen – so we will hang in there and keep working.
"We have a lot of things to iron out before we start district. I have great kids who are coachable."
In the junior varsity contest, the Lady Rams defeated the Lady Bulldogs, 35-19.
MWHS – Sydney Shelstead 23, Niya Benavides 15, Kennedy Shelstead 7, Courtney Peña 5, Natalie Ragland 4, Riley Bullock 2, Pamela Hopkins 2.
MHS – Jolee Carswell 13, Mikelyn Kruger 10, Hannah Hobson 6, Sydney Herbel 5, Melissa Jones 4, Lauren Power 3.

Our EXCEL (Educational eXcellence Creating Empowered Leaders) Program places motivated yet underprivileged New York City youth, from across Children's Aid, on a higher education track as early as the 8th grade. Distinct from scholarship programs that focus only on a student's financial need or academic ability, the EXCEL program consists of several core components:
- Financial literacy
- Career exploration and goal setting
- Academic support
- Social support
- Scholarship support
These components are designed to prepare youth for college and the world of work. EXCEL's financial literacy component, comprised of Economic Empowerment Initiative, Milestone Awards and the College Scholarship Fund, addresses the particular challenges low-income students and families face in reaching their higher education dreams. When combined, these components show EXCEL participants that ongoing attention to personal, academic and professional objectives can yield enormous rewards.
EXCEL is available to students who are already affiliated with other Children's Aid programs.

Fishkind Commentary: Census Figures Show Rising Poverty in Florida
September 25, 2012 | WMFE - The US Census Bureau has released new figures showing a steep decline in median household incomes in Florida. An analysis of the census data also shows about one-sixth of Floridians living in poverty last year. It's the 4th consecutive year that the poverty rate has increased both nationally and statewide.
He says the median household income in Florida is considerably lower now than it was five years ago.

Two measures up for a vote this week would move New Albany toward converting some downtown streets to two-way traffic; however, they set different paths to accomplish the transitions.
Councilman John Gonder is sponsoring a resolution calling for the immediate conversion of Market, Bank and Pearl streets to two-way flow. Spring Street and Elm Street would also be up for transition to two-way traffic under the plan, but Gonder calls for the intersections at Vincennes and State streets on Spring and Elm to be studied prior to a conversion.
Councilman Greg Phipps is calling for the body to split the cost of a $60,000 engineering study that would consider switching downtown streets to two-way traffic.
Gonder said on Tuesday spending $60,000 on a "stamp of approval" to convert streets to two-way flow isn't fiscally sound.
"Most people probably don't care in all honesty, but the ones that do care want them to go back to two-way and they have pretty cogent reasons as to why to do it," he said.
Proponents of two-way streets believe the conversion will benefit downtown businesses as well as ease traffic flow especially when more vehicles flow into Floyd County, as anticipated, when tolling begins on the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge.
Phipps represents a sizable portion of downtown, and said earlier this month that two-way streets is the most common issue raised to him by residents.
"I think it's time that we do something," he said.
Mayor Jeff Gahan's administration has agreed to foot the remaining $30,000 needed for the study. Councilman Scott Blair said earlier this month the city should study the consequences of converting streets to two-way traffic before approving the move.
John Rosenbarger, supervisor of public facilities projects for the city, said a 2007 study that included some examination of transition to two-way streets wasn't comprehensive. The study didn't provide guidance, for example, on what will be needed to usher traffic flow from one-way to two-way safely and adequately, he said.
"I don't think there's any down side to going forward and taking a hard look at it," Rosenbarger said.
But Gonder said there's no rationale to spend $60,000 to study converting most of the downtown streets to two-way traffic.
The intersections at Elm Street and State Street on Spring and Elm streets are essentially the two intersections that would need to be studied, he continued.
Based on prior administration estimates, Gonder said the city should be able to analyze those intersections for $8,000 to $12,000.
Though the council will likely decide whether to move forward with footing a study or supporting the immediate transition to two-way streets on Thursday, the body doesn't hold the authority to mandate a conversion.
The New Albany Board of Public Works and Safety — which consists of three members appointed by the mayor — holds jurisdiction over municipal property such as streets.
Phipps' measure will require three ballots, the first of two will be taken on Thursday. If it is approved on initial readings, the final vote will likely be taken on the $30,000 appropriation of Riverboat Funds on Oct. 7.
Jobs called for in tolling resolution
Gonder is also sponsoring a resolution calling for Ohio River Bridges' officials to hire actual people to collect tolls instead of using primarily machines and scanners.
Citing savings in commute times and increased efficiency, bridges officials plan to use a scanner system mainly for frequent commuters to avoid drivers having to pull over to a booth each time they cross a tolled bridge.
But Gonder said that system doesn't recognize the human element of the project.
After construction is completed, people won't have direct jobs related to the bridges, Gonder said. Proponents of the project tout it will boost economic development in the region due to improved transportation, but Gonder said employing people to collect tolls will at least pay some residents back for their investment in the new bridges.
Paying a company to collect tolls through machines is "extracting the earning power" of the community, he said.
"We're going to be paying for this for 30 years or longer, and at least some people could have a job out of the deal," Gonder said.
He conceded there's little chance the plan to use scanners and video systems for tolling will change, but said it's important to note publicly that officials are paying attention to the project and its ramifications.
Thursday's meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the third-floor Assembly Room of the City-County Building.

Bought this specifically for rotating tires - forget it! Won't loosen nuts. Worthless for me.
Desert Hot Springs, CA
via sears.com
No problems whatsoever. Works great for working on the car, the PSI around 90 a little low but more than makes up for just having a ratchet to use.
Orlando, FL
via sears.com
I bought similar kit from impact wrench from Husky and it was complete failure. it could not remove any lug I did not have great expectation for this one also, However, It was such powerful to remove the lugs so easy. Such a great purchase for the value, everything is included, and case will close after mounting the nibbles unlike husky who did not ever think about it
Chappell, NE
via sears.com
These products could have been made more friendly for the consumer. For instance the molded case is very easily broken where the hose sets, there is no room for air fittings on the tools themselves so removal and installation is annoying and cant always get air tight, and also the air hammer does not come with even one chisel or punch attachment.

The air impact is junk. Craftsman should replace this item. The idea of a half inch impact gun is you can actually break loose 90 -110 ft lb lugs but you can't. Disappointing for sure. Be aware when you purchase this air tool kit, you wont be able to use the impact gun for wheel removal. I had to use a breaker bar to break the lug loose then the gun to spin it off quickly. The air ratchet works OK for light duty,
Placentia, CA
via sears.com
via sears.com
I've only had this for a short time and have only had the opportunity to use the 3/8 air ratchet and I will say it works great. More to come after I use the impact and hammer.
via sears.com
This is perfect for the home garage that rotates tires or does light vehicle repairs. The air ratchet works great not the fastest but works well for tight spaces that a normal ratchet doesn't have room for movement. The air hammer is great for light use like breaking ball joints loose. The 1/2" impact is great for wheel nuts. I am happy with the items in the kit. It would have been nice to see a couple bits for the air hammer to try, other than that I am very satisfied with the tool kit.

The air is getting cleaner. Even the American Lung Association says so.
- ALA found that the number of counties in which unhealthy air was recorded fell significantly for the first time in six years ...
Now for the "but."
- But Janice Nolen, the group's director of national policy, emphasized that the counties where problems persist are home to 152 million people, or 52 percent of the U.S. population.
"People's lives are shortened by months to years because of the air they're breathing," she said.
It's interesting to note how news reports describe those who find fault with the ALA's work:
- Conservatives and energy-industry groups have criticized the Lung Association's methodology, saying it's misleading to give counties "failing" grades for air pollution that might have been recorded at just one monitoring station.
"I wish they would do more informing and less scaring," said Ben Lieberman, a senior environment and energy policy analyst at the Washington-based Heritage Foundation, a conservative research group.
As if "advocacy" groups, "consumer rights" groups, unions, government agencies, and others that escape ideological qualifiers are not motivated by ideology.
Joel Schwartz has been on this issue for a long time, and this article by him should be read along with any other news reports on this issue.
For example:
- ALA creates the impression that everyone living in areas that exceed EPA's standards is suffering serious health damage or even death. In reality, EPA's pollution standards have become so stringent that exceeding them has few implications for people's health.
The California Air Resources Board's Children's Health Study followed more than 1,000 children from ages 10 to 18 during the 1990s and reported no relationship between ozone levels and lung function. The CHS also reported that asthma incidence was 30 percent lower in areas with the highest ozone levels.
Coverage improved somewhat, but bad news is still an easier sell:
- This year's most egregious entry was the Oakland Tribune's "Air pollution still abysmal in Bay Area." It would be hard to make a more ridiculous statement about the San Francisco Bay Area's air quality. The entire region complies with all of EPA's air pollution health standards and has some of the cleanest air of any large metropolitan area in the entire world.

Want to kick in some bread to help Chef Bruce Wieszala make more meat?
Wieszala, one of the most talented chefs working in Western New York, can usually be found in the kitchen at Carmelo's, in Lewiston. On his own time, he's pursued his love of Italian charcuterie – cured meat. Operating as COPPA Artisan Cured Meats, he's started turning out handmade prosciutto, sopressatta, finocchio and a dozen other types. In the fall, Wieszala hopes to open a store for his meats, along with a few sandwiches and other accompaniments, at 425 Elmwood Ave. Some of his products are already for sale next door at Nickel City Cheese & Mercantile.
In the meantime, Wieszala is asking for $25,000 in donations to help buy equipment to expand production. "To keep up with the demand and larger volume, I'm definitely going to need a bigger curing room, a larger grinder, a larger stuffer," he said.
He's using the Kickstarter online service, which tracks donations from people interested in funding projects. There's incentive gifts, like a COPPA meat sampler for a $100 donation. If the goal isn't reached by the deadline, donors get their money back.
Wieszala's fine dining career started in Atlanta, where he cooked in top kitchens. He's the only Western New York chef who has actually competed on the Food Network's "Iron Chef America," assisting challenging Atlanta chef Linton Hopkins in 2007's Battle Sablefish.
To donate, point your web browser to kickstarter.com/projects/514664775/coppa-artisan-cured-meat and follow the instructions. As of Aug. 2, there were about $4,700 in commitments, quite a ways away from the goal with eight days left.
Wieszala expects to open his store either way, so at least the cured meat aficionados of Western New York have that to look forward to.
