Almost eighty years ago, President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal helped America climb out of the Great Depression. Now some North Bay activists are promoting a Green New Deal to respond to our current economic crises.
They state their mission as follows:
The Green New Deal for the North Bay is a grassroots initiative to help transform Marin and Sonoma counties into a resilient community guided by environmental sustainability and economic equity.
During 2009 and early 2010, the Commission on a Green New Deal for the North Bay will seek answers to such questions as:
- How can we create a sustainable green future that includes economic equity and social justice?
- How can agendas for economic rights and environmental protection become more integrated and more successful?
To explore such questions, the commission held eight public forums in May and June 2009-in San Rafael, Mill Valley, Point Reyes Station, Novato, Santa Rosa, Sonoma, Sea Ranch, and Petaluma.
Having completed this first series of community meetings (notes from some of them can be seen here), Green New Deal co-commissioner Norman Solomon says the comments could be seen to reflect at least a few ideas that were widely shared throughout the region.
During the summer, the commission will assess that community input and schedule public hearings in fall 2009. In those hearings, the commission will hear testimony from experts on such issues as food, housing, water, energy, health care, and social equity.
The difficulty in reconciling valid but competing interests may be the biggest challenge facing these Green New Deal commission, as those potential conflicts crop up in such a wide range of issues and circumstances. Solomon cites a recent public meeting in Petaluma at which the hotly disputed new Dutra asphalt plant proposal was being debated as just one example.
The commission will communicate its findings, first in draft form and then as a final report, to the public, media outlets, and government officials. To effect change through community participation and public policy, the report will also offer overall specific recommendations for North Bay residents, businesses, community groups, institutions, and government entities.
The 17 Green New Deal Commissioners who are working to carry out these tasks are:
Kiki La Porta
Sustainability Activist, Marketing Communications & Design
Lisa Maldonado
Executive Director of North Bay Labor Council
Will Pier
Water, Fisheries, Waste Management and Ecology Specialist
Norman Solomon

Join the growing number of students, businesses and universities that are leading the new Space Race. There is an explosion in small satellite development and space exploration taking place across the world.
Kentucky students are manning tracking antennas, developing space craft, building advanced electronics, launching balloons to the edge of space, working with NASA, managing flight operations and learning what the next wave of space explorers will need to know to survive long flights to distant stars. It is a new day and we need a "Bunch of Rebels" to create America's future in space.
As part of the fourth annual Kentucky Space Movie Project, teams of Kentucky students are invited to produce a short documentary film on a selected space topic. It is a student's chance to get out of the classroom and transcend the bounds of traditional textbooks, lectures and study. It is time to work hard having fun with your friends to research, plan, create and show what you can do.

The Easter Bunny is known for cleverly hiding eggs for children to find, but he's not alone in his ability to conceal treasures in almost plain sight.
Geocaching is a year-round opportunity for people to participate in a grown-up version of hunting for eggs.
Geocaching takes hide and seek to greater heights through GPS technology and clues provided in the quest to find the cache. It also expands treasure hunting to a larger geographic scale.
Essentially, this involves someone hiding a cache and providing clues for others to find it. Anyone can hide a cache, which is another name for whatever the "treasure" might be. The clues to discover where the cache is can be either written down or given by longitude and latitude with Global Positioning Systems (GPS). The people who look for caches are known as geocachers.
Currently, there are geocaches all across the globe. Websites such as www.geocaching.com list active caches, which recently numbered almost 2 million, and approximates the number of geocachers at over 5 million.
In addition to websites, there are mobile apps for Android and Apple devices to make it easier to pursue discovery of caches while you are on the move.
Caches are kept in outdoor locations. Small caches are concealed in waterproof containers and usually have an accompanying logbook, where you enter your information. Logbooks can be physical or digital.
Large caches have the same sort of thing as in small ones plus a trading option. If you find one, you can take an item and replace it with something of your own. When geocachers find a cache, they sign and date the logbook. Some use their real names; others have code names.
The Fairfax County Park Authority provides a list of parks where geocaching is allowed and a form for requesting permission to geocache at other county parks.
Geocachers enjoyed a record-setting day this year on February 29, Leap Day. Nearly 84,000 caches were logged online. Geocaches in the United States include both public and copyrighted information. The cache coordinates are in the public domain. The description of and what's in the cache are copyrighted. Important considerations for geocaches on public land, such as park land or public buildings, are to avoid negative impacts on nature and potential distress to the public.
So this Sunday after you've successfully found all the eggs hidden by the Easter Bunny, do a bit of geotrekking for some prime geoswag. Remember to abide by the cornerstone tenant "cache in, trash out" or CITO.

ATHENS — Hometown Grocery is expanding in Limestone County.
The owners of the Athens-based store announced today they will be opening in the Piggly Wiggly store on U.S. 31. The grocer acquired Piggly Wiggly at 100 U.S. 31 in Athens at a bankruptcy auction Tuesday in Nashville.
The new site will join the 31-year-old company's store on Jefferson Street in Athens.
"We will now have two locations to serve Limestone County," said owner Randall Holloway. "We are very excited to get started."
The new store is expected to open next Thursday.

MALONE — Franklin County's part-time tourism promoter may be housed in the District Attorney's Office so she can continue her part-time job there.
The possible change in work site for Fawn Tatro is expected to be discussed at the next meeting of the County Legislature on Thursday.
The move would coincide with the county's intent to take over tourism initiatives and create a 5 percent bed tax to fund proposals most likely to boost economic development.
The bed tax must have approval from the State Legislature and Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
The North Country Regional Economic Development Council recently endorsed the county's effort for a bed tax, which can take up to two years.
And that is about the time Tatro could be promoted to full-time office manager at the DA's Office.
DA Derek Champagne said he lost three positions when the county went through tough budget times three years ago.
He took the hit then with assurances from legislators that when times got better, he could recoup some staff and catch up on the backlog of state-prison reimbursements, he said.
Counties can be paid back for prosecuting inmate-related cases, such as promotion of prison contraband and officer assault.
"We're entitled to that revenue, but I can't get it because I don't have the staff to do it," Champagne said.
Tatro, who was the office assistant under former County Tourism Director Neil Seymour until his September 2011 retirement, is the grand-jury stenographer in the DA's office and would be paid about $25,000 a year for the part-time job.
And if she were trained in other office duties, someone else would be freed up to work on the revenue-generating casework, Champagne said.
When he learned about the proposed tourism-oversight changes, he suggested Tatro be assigned space in his office, which has a separate entrance from the rest of his department.

Soft Chiffon Sheath Tank with Illusion Lace Back Style WG3429 12 12
Great Dress Quick take: Beautiful, romantic, comfortable, light, flowy; simple and elegant, yet the detail on the back is that "something special." Did i mention it's comfortable? See picture... note 1: was wearing an undergarment that you can see through illusion back- DB said cups should/can/will be sewn in to support the goods without ruining the look of the back. note 2: the fit is a bit off, I'm a size 10 and the dress is a 14 November 25, 2013
Beautiful Gown! I only tried on a handful of wedding gowns, and this was the first one. I instantly loved the dress because it was comfortable, but also beautiful. The material is soft and the dress flows beautifully because of the chiffon. The applique was my favorite part because I wanted something simple, yet elegant and unique. It was perfect! The illusion back is gorgeous as well. I got compliments on my dress all night and it was just so comfortable and perfect for my wedding. If you get this dress, you will have to get bra cups sewn in though, because you can see a bra, no matter what type, through the illusion back. I would highly recommend this dress. It is beautiful! November 5, 2013
Simply Perfect! I found this dress online and stared at the picture from time to time for months before going in to try it on. All I can say is the pictures do not do this dress justice. It is way more beautiful in person. I ended up purchasing the dress on my very first visit to David's Bridal. The dress is comfortable, yet flowing and elegant. The back detail is what sealed the deal for me. I found that the dress fits true to size and was lucky enough that I didn't need any alterations at all. I am wearing 4-inch heels I must note just so you can can a sense of the length of the dress. I am going to feel beautiful, yet completely comfortable in this dress on my wedding day. I would recommend to anyone. September 10, 2013
Even Better in Person This picture does not even give this dress justice! I just purchased this dress today and I have never felt so beautiful. It is comfy yet so classy and elegant. It shows just the right amount of skin. It truly is better in person! March 8, 2013

Summit County's largest employer, Summa Health System, continued to add to its payroll in 2012, gaining more than 400 employees.
Employment at Summa — including Akron City, Barberton and St. Thomas hospitals — reached nearly 7,000 by the end of the year, according to the Beacon Journal's annual largest-employer survey. Summa also includes SummaCare insurance, a physician group and other businesses.
Summa — in addition to being the No. 1 employer in Summit County — is among the top 20 employers in Northeast Ohio. That should be no surprise as state figures show that the biggest employment sector in the area is health care and social assistance.
Two other health-care employers — Akron General Health System and Akron Children's Hospital — also are on the Beacon Journal's list of largest employers.
The Beacon Journal's survey and state job-count figures also reveal:
• Total employment at Summit's 18 largest public and private-sector employers grew little last year, increasing by fewer than 500 workers, or roughly 1 percent.
• Overall employment in the county totaled 257,014 workers for the second quarter of 2012. That was down about 3,000 employees from the 254,005 in the second quarter of 2011.
• The ranks of government sector workers continued to shrink, according to figures from the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. However, the Beacon Journal's survey shows the city of Akron and Summit County government shed relatively few workers last year. The number of full-time employees working for the city dropped by 15, and the number of full-time equivalent employees working for Summit County departments declined by 12. In 2011, the county payroll dropped by more than 200 workers and city employment declined by about 200.
• Acme Fresh Markets saw one of the biggest percentage increases — about 7 percent — in employment last year. Acme officials suggested the increase was due in part to the grocery store chain adding two state liquor agencies to its operations, as well as draft beer at six locations. Additionally, the employment numbers for 2011 and 2012 might have been gathered at different times of the year, the officials said.
• Employment numbers for Summa and Akron General reflect the payroll at the end of 2012 and therefore do not include layoffs that were announced earlier this year.
• Goodyear remained the county's largest manufacturer, primarily because of the number of white-collar employees at its corporate campus, rather than the number of blue-collar workers. Goodyear provided the same estimate of employees — 3,000 — that it has since at least 2007.
• The names on the list of the county's largest employers were unchanged from a year ago, with the exception of FirstMerit Corp. The bank is not included this year because it declined to break out employment totals just in Summit County. The bank, with branches in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Illinois, provided a total employment number of 2,724. FirstMerit will add more branches in Michigan as part of a pending merger with Citizens Republic Bancorp of Michigan. (There was a drop-off of a longtime company on the list when Chrysler closed its Twinsburg Stamping Plant in 2010 as part of its bankruptcy restructuring.)
• Various national companies boast a large number of workers in Summit, but they are not on the Beacon Journal list, which ranks employers with 1,000 or more workers. Bridgestone Americas Inc. employed 845 people in 2011 (982 including contractors) at its Akron complex. Figures for 2012 were not immediately available. Bridgestone Americas is a division of Bridgestone Corp., based in Tokyo, Japan.

August 2, 2014
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Tea party leader Mica Sims has joined U.S. Sen. Rand Paul's staff as a field representative based in Lexington.
Sims, one of the most recognizable tea party activists in the state, operated a political blog in Lexington for the past three years.
The 28-year-old said Tuesday she's excited to work for Paul, whom she has supported since he initially formed an exploratory committee to take a look at running.
Paul won his Senate seat in 2010 with strong support from the tea party. As a field representative, Sims will work for Paul in central Kentucky's 6th Congressional District, serving as a liaison between constituents and government agencies.

The Navy is opening sea and short-duty assignments outside of the continental U.S. to sailors with HIV or other blood-borne illnesses, according to a spokesman.
Per a directive issued last year by Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, the service has revised policy governing assignments for these sailors, and has now begun assigning them to overseas duty stations, Navy Personnel Command spokesman Mike McLellan confirmed in an email.
Guidance for sailors was approved in August 2013 to implement SECNAVINST 5300.3E, he said. Navy Personnel Command is following the direction of the secretary, and has begun assigning sailors with blood-borne pathogens to operational/OCONUS platforms.
The move was first reported by Stars and Stripes.
Previously, sailors with HIV or other blood-borne illnesses were restricted to duty assignments within the continental U.S., regardless of their physical condition. Now, as long as their illnesses are considered under control with medication, they are able to serve overseas.
Affected sailors who are interested in an overseas assignment must submit a request to Navy Personnel Command, then coordinate with the senior medical officer and commanding officer of their proposed new command to approve the assignment.
Sailors with an upcoming rotation date should contact their detailers to arrange their next orders.
McLellan declined to say how many people are now eligible for overseas assignments or how many have already been assigned.
At this point, less than 0.1 percent of Navy's population fall into these categories, he said.
The policy still prevents HIV-positive people from joining the Navy.

RIVERSIDE — Council member John LaMotte has received all the signatures necessary to run for mayor of Riverside.
LaMotte needed the signatures of 10 fellow Democrats from the borough of Riverside to file his petition and appear on the ballot in the May primary. He said he had no trouble at all getting support.
"People in Riverside are always very nice," said LaMotte, and are always willing to offer help for fellow residents.
Lamotte said he wanted to run to ensure a younger generation will take part in Riverside's government. LaMotte is currently the youngest member of borough the council at age 44. "I just think that younger people need to be involved," he said.
The current mayor, Dale Erb, does not plan to run for reelection this year. Erb is in his 70s.
According to LaMotte, Riverside resident John Domanski has filed a petition to run for one of three available council seats but he does not know who might run for the other two. The deadline to file a petition to appear on the election ballot is March 12.

Minutes before the deadline to sign franchised players to long-term deals, the Ravens signed RB Ray Rice to a five-year contract.
Rice's deal is worth $40 million with $25 million to be paid in the first two years, including $17 million in 2012, according to Aaron Wilson of the Carroll County Times.
In 2011, Rice's fourth season, the back rushed for 1,364 yards and 12 touchdowns while hauling in 76 catches for 704 yards and three scores. He was second in the league in rushing and second among backs in receiving yards. Rice has not missed a game since his rookie season of 2008.
Rice joined Bears RB Matt Forté and Jaguars PK Josh Scobee as franchised players who got deals done on Monday before the deadline.
The way we see it
Rice is one of the game's most versatile tailbacks, possessing the capability to effectively run inside and outside the tackles and some of the best pass-catching skills of any back in the game. Were he to have played on just the one-year franchise tender, and were he to have played to his usual standard, the Ravens were going to be put to a tough decision on whether to again use the franchise tag on him (at a higher cost than in '12) or to allow him to test the market.
With the Rice deal done, let's see if the Ravens can reach agreement with QB Joe Flacco on a contract extension. Flacco, 27, is in the final year of his contract. Like Rice, he is in his prime, and the cost of securing a talented quarterback for the long term isn't exactly going down.

have this giant rubber band on my knee,its really tight and i lost movement in my knee,i cant hardly bend it.Two months ago my knee broke out with this bad rash and started to swell up
me and lots of pain.The doctors just tested me for the hardware in my knee and i came out positive and had a severe
action and broke out all over my arms and back and knee,with lots of inching.Now i have to go back in to surgery to replace the hardware.You should check to see if you are having this problem.Let me know take care
Forget the attorney. Please get a second opinion if you haven't already, as it's now a year out and this is not a complication which will improve on its own.
The numbness may never go away, you'll just have to learn to live with it. I haven't been able to feel parts of my knee for 40 years because nerves were cut during the first surgery way back when.
knee has been real tight too.Iam i and half yrs post surgery,
The first week after surgery i broke out with severe inching all over my body and everytime i would scratch,it would get
worse.This happen about 7 different times and the doctors
gave me some meds.and it went away until 5 months ago,my right knee broke out with a severe rash and my knee swell up on me.The doctors did a skin test and i was negative to
fungus and was sent to the allergy doc.who did an allergy test
and they found i was allergic too a metal call magangise which i had only 1% in my hardware.After my allergy test with the
patch my body broke out all over my body.The doctor give me meds.to contol my rash,and when i stop using it i start breaking out all over my body.They did an nucalar bone scan on my right knee and found i have a svere infection inside my bone
and they say its from the hardware in my knee.Well now i'am on the waiting list to have my knee replace with new hardware.
They tested me last week to make sure iam not allergic to it,but
iam fine so they are going to replace my knee with this
new hardware.I told my doc. about 2 weeks after my first
surgery if i could be allergic to my first hardware in my knee
and my doc.told me no,that it is very rear for someone is allergic to their hardware after surgery,well i'am their first
case and now i have to start all over,thats life and it is better
now then when i got too old.Take care everyone and remember we are all in the same boat to vegas lol
Realistically 7 months later if she is still having significant swelling, there is likely an issue with stability, loosening or maybe infection. My recommendation is to go get a second opinion. You are right, there is not a normal presentation. Your doctor should be doing tests (blood work, x rays, bone scans) to rule out infection, loosening, etc.
I had my surgery 9 months ago and the first 7 months the pain was terrible, 8 th month I was doing pretty good. This last month I came down with a sinus infection and strept throat. A week went by before I started taking antibiotics and steroids. I've finished the ten days of meds. And the pain over the last 3 weeks is real bad and i can't walk much even after taking Vicodin. It's not swollen, but it is clicking now. I don't know if it's infected or not. I worry myself sick wondering if it's infected. I don't think I could ever go through such a horrible and painful surgery again.
Will I go on like this for two years like you?
I had my TKR 9 months ago, the first 7 months were terrible, then I had almost 1 month of doing pretty good. One month ago I came down with a sinus infection, and strept throat. I started on antibiotics after a week of infection and being real sick. Then my knee was giving me bad pain and it is hard to walk. The DR put me on stronger antibiotics and steroids. I finished al the meds, but still have bad pain and can hardly walk. Thank God for vicodin!.. There's no swelling, but there is a clicking noise. I want to know is the infection in my knee now?

How to shoot a course video
Gallo following Bert in Santa Monica. He's riding a skateboard, which went under the fence and nearly over the cliff at one point.
In front of the Troubador on Santa Monica Blvd.
Pat getting a shot of Bert on Hollywood Blvd.
This shot is a no-brainer.
"OK, Bert, just follow the yellow line in the middle of the road, and I'll scream at you if you're about to get hit by a speeding car."
I hope you've had a chance to see our video highlighting the new stadium to sea route. I'm proud of how it turned out, and it successfully captures the energy and spirit of the 2010 LA Marathon.
Here's how the project came together, in 10 not-so-easy steps:
1. Meet with race director Nick Curl and director of operations Stacy Embretson. They suggest some sort of video highlighting the new course. Great idea, I tell them. Inside I'm thinking, "I have NO IDEA what the concept of the piece should be." But my wheels are turning.
2. One week to go, and still no concept. But I meet with my friend Pat Solomon of Newhouse Films. He has some great ideas that we cover over breakfast, like the visual of the single runner heading down the middle of the route at 6:00 in the morning. I'm getting close, but I still need that conceptual framework to plug into.
3. Pat calls. Bad news. He's been booked to shoot a commercial, but he recommends his friend Chris Gallo to help. I call Gallo (most people don't even know he has a first name) and he's available. And he has an editor who can cut the piece. We're getting closer.
4. Now it's Thursday, and we're shooting on Sunday at 6:00 am, when the streets are completely empty and the light is beautiful. Still no overall concept. Just a runner in the streets won't cut it–not interesting enough. Stressing about it. Only four days to pull it together!
5. Another problem–I need just the right runner. Someone with a great stride. How to find that person? Of course, I call Eric Barron, coach of Track Club LA. He's out of town but recommends Bert Whitson. I find Bert's website and send him an email. Even though Bert is a successful investment professional, he agrees to devote his Sunday morning to running with us. I see his photos and recognize him immediately as the guy who consistently blows past me and many others in the track workouts at Santa Monica High. In fact, I've only ever seen him from the back.
6. I decide it's time to call my lifeline and get help on the concept issue. I get in touch with two longtime friends who are creative directors and brief them on the video. By the way, I ask, can you get me some ideas tomorrow? After some nervous laughter, they insist that it's not a problem and they'll come up with the goods. These guys always deliver, but I feel bad about waiting until the last minute and then pressing them to come up with something overnight.
7. It's now Saturday morning. The crew is locked, we've identified the locations we want to cover, but still no concept. Just a runner and the route. Is this all going to fall apart? Should I live with something simple and not overthink it? I can't push the shoot back any further because the website and registration are going up in a week. Our backs are already against the wall.
8. Saturday night. Making dinner for the family. My creative director friends call, "We've got an idea!" They propose the tagline, "A Landmark Every Mile." I immediately like it. Then they talk about structuring the video with some archival footage to emphasize the "Landmark" status of different parts of the course. They also talk about the "Mile 1″ graphic, etc. So perfect. Exactly what I needed. We still will shoot Bert in the streets, but now we have a framework.
9. Sunday morning 6:00 am. Meet at the corner of Hollywood and Vine. Still a little dark, but we start shooting. Pat rallies and joins us with his camera. We rip through the shots: Stars on sidewalk, Pat and Gallo shooting from skateboards beside Bert, Mann's Chinese Theater, Sunset Strip, Rodeo Drive, back to Dodger Stadium and finally out to Santa Monica. A whirlwind, but we get a lot of good stuff. We somehow manage not to get arrested for skateboarding down the middle of all these streets.
10. The edit comes together nicely with great graphics supplied by the creative directors. Working even better than I had expected. We get it posted to Youtube barely 24 hours before registration opens. Whew!

CLAYTON — A 25-year-old Smithfield man was hit by a car and killed when he was walking on U.S. 70 near Smithfield early Sunday morning, the State Highway Patrol said.
Thomas David Dudley IV of Smithfield was on the eastbound side of the highway about 3 miles southeast of Clayton shortly before 3 a.m. Sunday, troopers reported.
Kelsey Brown of Smithfield was driving a Toyota Corolla east when she saw a man standing in the road and was unable to avoid hitting him even though she slammed on her brakes and swerved in an effort to avoid him, troopers said.
Dudley had been in an argument with his girlfriend earlier, and she had dropped him off along the road, the report said.
No charges were filed.

HERNDON, Va., May 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Personalized learning solutions provider Fuel Education™ today announced it is expanding its comprehensive portfolio of more than 500 unique online and blended courses and titles for pre-K through 12th grade with more than 25 new additions for the 2014-2015 school year.
Fuel Education's catalog now features multiple new math courses for middle and high school students, new electives designed to promote career readiness, as well as the recently announced mobile, standards-aligned FuelEd Middle School curriculum. Each course or title has been developed in full alignment with the Common Core State Standards, as well as other state and national standards.
Fuel Education's new middle and high school math courses for blended and/or full-time learning include:
"Mathematics is so closely tied to overall student success that educators now regard Algebra I as a key predictor of high school success, and Algebra II as key predictor for work, college, and career success even further down the road," said David Pelizzari, Vice President of Curriculum.
"We are happy to offer new paths to mathematics success for middle school and high school students-paced in different ways and scaffolded to support an even wider range of students, from those with the greatest skills to those needing the most reinforcement, review, and support. These fresh offerings are aligned with the new standards and more sophisticated assessments associated with Common Core State Standards and many state standards, offering high quality course choices for every type of student."
Also new for the coming school year is 7 new high school electives designed to engage teenagers and promote exploration of their career interests. New electives include Careers in Criminal Justice, Introduction to Agriscience, Public Speaking, Early Childhood Education, and Entrepreneurship. In addition, many electives previously available for blended programs are now available for full-time programs.
As previously announced, the catalog also features FuelEd Online Courses for Middle School, the standards-aligned curriculum designed for students as they transition through the "make or break" years, available on a wide variety of platforms and devices such as the iPad®, Chromebook™ and Android™.
New courses designed for blended learning are also integrated into PEAK™, Fuel Education's Personalized Learning Platform, which makes it easy for districts to integrate and manage all of their online learning programs in one place.

I respect the opinion of those who think it's too early to talk about gun control, but tell that to my ten-year-old. He brought it up. When I asked if he had questions about the tragedy in Sandy Hook, he only had two: Who did this, and why did he have guns? "Only people in the army should have guns," he explained. I calmly shared what I knew about the shooting and what little we know about Adam Lanza. I told him that there would be a lot of discussion about who should have guns and what kind of guns, and that not everyone agreed on the issue. "Yeah, like hunters," he concurred. And there's also the Constitution, I added, to which he responded, "I know, the right to bear arms." He knew. At which point, I confess, I stated my own political views that such a right was outdated and counter-productive, that while it is indeed people who pull triggers, removing the triggers (guns) themselves would ensure that unstable people could not take innocent lives. "Obviously," he said. Obviously.
I'm not usually outspoken about my politics, maybe because I work at a University where I earnestly uphold freedom of speech and value a diversity of viewpoints, even when they conflict with my own. I've lived in places where there is an active "gun culture," mainly hunting-related, and understand that good, compassionate people keep guns and respect the power of their weapons. But the gun lobby has served less to uphold the rights of all citizens and more to drown out or intimidate those who believe that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness depends upon gun control and stricter regulations that only begins with an assault weapons ban. I'm not saying anything new, and I have grumbled in my own home every time there has been a senseless gun-related tragedy. Yes, our proximity and kinship with Sandy Hook brought this home, and my ten-year-old's small voice deserves to be heard. Too early to talk about gun control? Isn't it too late?

Yule Tea 4pm and Christmas Carol Service 5pm
One of the hallmarks of Christmas is the singing of boy and girl choristers, their voices ringing out the beloved carols and hymns of the season. On Sunday, December 23 at 5:00 PM, Fairfield's renowned St. Paul's Choir will sing a service of carols, hymns, and scripture readings. Known by its English name, this 'Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols' is a worship service famous the world over because of its yearly broadcast from the Chapel of King's College, Cambridge, on Christmas Eve. This year, the service can be experienced right here in Fairfield, at Saint Paul's Episcopal Church, on the Town Hall Green. Everyone is warmly welcome.
The church's St. Paul's Choir is an outstanding 45-voice ensemble of children and adults modeled after the great cathedral choirs of England. The choir has been directed by John Abdenour since 2000, and has toured England four times.
The carol service will be preceded at 4:00 PM by a Yule Café in the church's gathering area, an offering of mulled wine and cider, seasonal treats and refreshments. Following the service, people are invited to walk the church's beautiful, candle-lit labyrinth in the Parish Hall.
The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols is one of a series of Sunday afternoon services St. Paul's offers throughout the year. These services feature simple worship formats with music of unusual richness and beauty, inviting those in attendance to peacefully enter into the presence of holiness.
Saint Paul's is handicapped accessible, and ample parking is available in lots and on the streets surrounding the church. The church is located on the Town Hall Green, adjacent to the Fairfield Town Hall.

Click on the buttons on the bar above for links to other web sites which have route planners and helpful information on getting to Leicester Tigers. Click on the globe for a Google Map Satellite image of the stadium. You will also be able to use Google's route planner to map your journey.
Exit the motorway at Junction 21 (M1). Follow the signs for the city centre via Narborough Road (A5460). After 3 miles, at the crossroad junction with Upperton Road, turn right. The stadium is 1/2 mile ahead (past Leicester City Football ground on the right).
Follow the signs for the city centre, coming in via London Road. At the main set of lights opposite the entrance to the railway station (on the right), turn left onto the Waterloo Way. The stadium is 1/2 mile further on.
Follow the signs for the city centre, coming in via Aylestone Road.
The stadium has 100 car parking spaces, 30 within the ground and an additional 70 in the adjoining Granby Halls car park (available on non match days only). There are also several car parks within close proximity. Euro Park on the Cinema and Supermarket Complex is a short two minutes walk away. NCP car park on Welford Road is a five minute walk away. NCP on East Street in the city centre is a 10 minute walk away.

One Loudoun has worked a deal with the owners of the planned Hounds stadium so that the area that was to be part of a "Town Center" with shops, restaurants, a Central Park and many office buildings including the World Trade Center can be rezoned to build a baseball stadium that can accommodate up to 10,000 spectators.
This stadium was approved three years ago for the Kincora development, closer to the Dulles Town Center. Now they will move to the middle of a developed and rapidly developing residential neighborhood. Once the Board of Supervisors approves the rezoning then the deal is complete. The original plan for a "Reston Town Center" is a plan that attracted thousands to the area around the intersection of Route 7 and Loudoun County Parkway. This plan will now be greatly modified and will focus on the stadium, parking and stadium management thus ousting some retail shops and businesses.
One large community (we are 1,000 homes and growing), Potomac Greens, for active adults 55+ will be largely impacted. The impact may or may not include illumination, noise that exceeds ordinances, safety and traffic. Some are very excited about being able to take their grandchildren to the ball game. But this stadium will be host to various other events, soccer, festivals and concerts all of which may be able to produce negative acoustic effects until 11 p.m. according to what I have read.
Many of the 1,000 residents of the senior community are concerned about traffic and noise. There is no discusssion yet of unbiased impact studies, and certainly no concern for the potential annoyance of noise for seniors living withing 1/2 mile. In addition, One Loudoun is slapping up houses every day faster than I can cook a meal. These buyers are not being told (I visited the models last weekend to witness this) that there will be a stadium with 5,000 cars using their roads before and after each event. These buyers have children and there is an elementary school a few blocks away.
I am new to Loudoun and very disillusioned after only three months that the county supervisors have no concern for the quality of life of both their senior citizens as well as the safety of their children. It would appear that the only goal is financial. If this is the face of Loudoun, I am not impressed. Meanwhile the traffic on Route 7 seems to get worse every day with no relief in site. Now we are adding another stream of traffic to the mix.
Our Potomac Greens Community is hosting an event for residents who may have questions for One Loudoun and the Hounds regarding the stadium at it's community center Oct. 11 at 6:30 p.m. Unless residents happened to see the articles in the the Ashburn Patch or the Loudoun Times, they are unaware of the issues that might face them.
I am encouraging anyone living in the area of One Loudoun to voice your opinion to the Board of Supervisors, contact Info is on their website: http://www.loudoun.gov/index.aspx?nid=2178
