A judge in Texas has sentenced one of the last two defendants convicted for helping disgraced financier R. Allen Stanford bilk investors out of more than $7 billion in one of the biggest Ponzi schemes in U.S. history.
Gilbert Lopez Jr., the ex-chief accounting officer for one of Stanford's companies, was sentenced to 20 years in prison during a hearing Thursday in Houston federal court.
Lopez's attorney says his client is remorseful for investor losses.
Another defendant, Mark Kuhrt, is set to be sentenced later Thursday.
Prosecutors say Lopez and Kuhrt helped hide Stanford's misuse of investor funds. Stanford was convicted last year on 13 fraud-related counts and sentenced to 110 years in prison.
Two other former executives with Stanford's now dismantled business empire were sentenced previously.

What is Interlibrary Loan?
Interlibrary loan is a service that allows you to obtain materials not available at the three Alfred libraries. You may request that Scholes Library borrows these materials, on your behalf, from other libraries.
Who is eligible for interlibrary loan?
All Alfred University students, faculty, and staff are eligible.
What types of materials are available?
Items that are usually easy to borrow:
Most books; articles from journals; and technical reports.
Items that can be more difficult to borrow:
New books; theses or dissertations; standards, rare books and manuscripts; journal volumes; multi-volume sets; items held by a very small number of libraries; and unpublished papers.
Items that cannot be borrowed:
Is there a charge for interlibrary loan?
We will try to obtain materials free of charge for our campus patrons. You will be notified if the only availability incurs a charge. If you wish to continue with the loan, the fee may be paid by cash, check made out to Alfred University, or charged against a research account. There are two reasons why an item may incur a charge:
- The item may only be available from libraries that charge a fee.
- Under the 1976 Copyright Law guidelines, there are certain limitations on what a library may obtain through Interlibrary Loan. We may not request from the last five years a) more than one article from any single journal ISSUE, or b) more than five articles from any single journal TITLE. Any articles requested beyond these guidelines must pays copyright fees. The cost per article can vary from $15 to $50 plus; depending on the publisher, the vendor, the method of document transmission, and copyright fee.
How do I make a request?
Before you make a request, check to see if the item is available at Scholes, Herrick, or Hinkle (at Alfred State College) libraries. If you need help determining if the item is available through an Alfred library, see a librarian or contact the Interlibrary Loan department. Logon to your Interlibrary Loan account and submit a request for each item that you need. Submit a request through Journal Locator or one of our licensed databases to have the request form populated for you (see How To's). Provide as much information as possible since this will speed your request. If you have a deadline, indicate the date by which you need the materials. Please limit your book requests to three at a time. If you need more please request in order of priority. If you request a large number of articles at once, we reserve the right to process ten requests per patron per week. If this happens, you will be notified. You can prioritize your requests by submitting them in the order that you wish to receive them.
How long does it take?
Article requests take an average of two days; book requests take an average of four days. Books from long distances will take at least seven days.
How will I know when the materials have arrived?
You will receive an e-mail notice. If it is a book, you will be asked to pick it up at the library's Circulation desk. We are subject to any restriction placed on the item's use by the lending library. They may request that it be used in the library only. For electronic articles, you will receive an email with the logon address. When you access your account you can view the article online. Articles in print will be sent to you through campus mail.
How long can I keep the materials?
The average loan time for a book is three weeks. Books needed for the entire semester should not be requested through interlibrary loan. Electronic articles are available in your Interlibrary Loan account for 30 days. If you want to keep a copy of the article, you should download it to your desktop. Copyright law specifies that copies may not be "used for any purpose other than personal study, scholarship, or research." They may not be distributed in any form to anyone else.
How do I renew items?
To extend the amount of time you keep a book: Logon to your interlibrary loan account. Click: "Checked Out Items" located under the View heading, then "Transaction Number" of the item you wish to renew, then "Renew Request" located in red at the top of the request. Your request will go directly to the lending library. You will be notified by e-mail if the renewal was denied.
Why did I receive a notice that the item was "recalled" and that I would have to return it right away?
Occasionally, a lending library recalls an item because it is needed by one of its own patrons.
The book is overdue, but I still need the item.
If you received an overdue notice, please return the item right away. We count on you to help us maintain good relationships with our lending libraries. We must return items on time in order to continue borrowing. You may submit another request for the book, and we'll borrow from another library. If you do not return the item, you will be charged for the cost of replacing it. We reserve the right to suspend interlibrary loan privileges to patrons who ignore interlibrary loan policies.
The article is not clear?
We check over most articles before sending notification, but some images or scientific figures may need a finer resolution. Let us know and we will request another copy of higher quality.

Where Are They Now: Patricia Richardson, AKA Jill Taylor On 'Home Improvement'
March 6th, 2013 4:45pm EST
Patricia Richardson is best known for playing Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor's (Tim Allen) wife Jill on Home Improvement during the 1990s.
The 62-year-old actress starred in over 200 episodes of the hit ABC show before moving on to "Strong Medicine" when the series ended. "Strong Medicine" focused on a group of women doctors at a South Philadelphia women's clinic who specialized in getting medical help to less fortunate women. Not surprisingly, the show aired on Lifetime.
Patricia starred in 59 episodes during its six-season run.
Check out more facts about Patricia and more photos of her on the next page...
Patricia was born on February 23, 1951 in Bethesda, Maryland, and was raised in nearby Hagerstown.
Before landing the part on "Home Improvement," thanks to the help of pal Stephen Tobolowsky, Patricia started out with single episode parts on such 80s series as "Kate & Allie," "Quantum Leap," and "The Cosby Show."
She's been nominated twice for a Golden Globe Award for her role on "Home Improvement," in 1994 and again in 1995. Both nominations were for Best Actress in a Television Series (Musical or Comedy).
Patricia joined the cast of The West Wing for the show's final two seasons. She played a campaign director.
Richardson starred in a few TV movies and has a new film, "Avarice," due out later this month. The film is about a group of people brought together when a mysterious box from outer space lands in the desert. The box has special powers, but releases and evil darkness when misused.
Patricia and the rest of the "Home Improvement" cast (clockwise): Tim Allen, Zachery Ty Bryan, Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Taran Noah Smith (clockwise).

Comments about Craft Flex Tight:
These tights are well made and reasonably warm for temps between 5-12 degrees celsius. The fit isn't that great for cycling since the back of the waist doesn't go up very far which can lead to a bit of a gap between the bottom of a jacket/jersey and the top of the tights. However, since these should be worn over bib-shorts, it isn't that big of an issue.

(January 12, 2013) Australian Bernard Tomic won his first career ATP World Tour title at the Apia International Sydney Saturday night with a dramatic 6-3, 6-7 (2), 6-3 with over South African Kevin Anderson.
"It's an amazing feeling. Now that I know what it feels like to win a tournament, it's the best feeling in the world," said Tomic.
"It's an honor to have won my first tournament in front of you," Tomic said, referring to receiving the Ken Rosewall trophy from the man himself in the arena named after him. "It's been a long road, but finally I have one of these trophies."
"It's an amazing feeling. Now that I know what it feels like to win a tournament and it's the best feeling in the world. I'm so happy I won. To do it here in Sydney is awesome. I can't ask for anything better. I'm so proud of myself. Can't stop here now. Now I've got to look to the next tournament and keep playing the tennis I've been playing.
"It's my first title, and I know I'll win a lot more if I keep this attitude up. I'm happy for this year now. I'm so excited. I'm looking forward to Melbourne. I feel unstoppable. I feel like I'm playing great tennis. It's amazing stepping on court. You're so confident. That's going to be taken down to Melbourne and I'm going to use that for every match I play there.
"He's not easy to play. I was lucky I got that double fault in the third set, because anything could have happened after that. I did play well off the ground. I served pretty good, but he was serving outstanding. Third set was epic. I think under pressure I played really good tennis."
Defending doubles champions Bob and Mike Bryan kept their title Saturday with a decisive 6-4, 6-4 win over fellow doubles experts Horia Tecau and Max Mirnyi.
The victory for Tomic is his eighth straight, creating a great lead-in to his home major, the Australian Open. Since the beginning of the new season, the Australian has had a good string of wins over player ranked higher than he is – Novak Djokovic, Tommy Haas and Andreas Seppi at Hopman Cup in Perth and in Sydney wins over fellow Australian Marinko Matosevic , Florian Mayer, Andreas Seppi and Anderson.
Tomic takes to the court next at the Australian Open in Melbourne as the No. 1 Australian on Tuesday versus Argentina's Leonardo Mayer and could face Roger Federer if he reaches the third round.

A 58-year-old New Albany man is in jail on felony charges of sexual abuse of a child.
George W. Allen, of 2249 Park Ave., was arrested by Jeffersontown, Ky., police and was being held at Louisville Metro Corrections when he was picked up by the Floyd County Sheriff's Department Monday and brought to the Floyd County Jail.
Allen is believed by the New Albany Police Department to have sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl over the course of 18 months.
Police did not confirm the number of multiple sexual encounters believed to have taken place.
Maj. Keith Whitlow with NAPD said the child and Allen knew each other.
The child reported the abuse, described a fondling, to a school resource officer at a Floyd County middle school Oct. 24, at which time the officer handed the information over to investigators.
Whitlow said the alleged child abuse did not take place on school property.
Investigators filed a probable cause affidavit for Allen's arrest Nov. 14, and a warrant was issued the following day.
According to court documents, at least one of the crimes was committed as far back as May 2011.
Allen has been charged in Floyd County Superior Court No. 3 with child molesting and vicarious sexual gratification, both C felonies.
A class C felony charge of vicarious sexual gratification occurs, according to Indiana state law, when "a person 18 years of age or older who knowingly or intentionally directs, aids, induces, or causes a child under the age of 16 to touch or fondle himself or another child under the age of 16 with intent to arouse or satisfy the sexual desires of a child or the older person."
Court documents had not been updated as of press time of Allen's next appearance in the court.

BY LOHR McKINSTRY
---- — ELIZABETHTOWN — Only three people spoke at a public hearing on the tentative 2013 Essex County budget, but all urged lawmakers to make further spending cuts to avoid a significant tax-levy hike.
The budget's tax levy is a 26.8 percent increase over this year, and the County Board of Supervisors and County Manager Daniel Palmer have been spending hours in public workshop sessions trying to reduce it.
"I feel this much (increase) is only going to force people out of their homes," said Harold Akey of Jay. "I'm asking you guys to please reconsider. Maybe people (county employees) are willing to take salary cuts."
He spoke at both the budget hearing and an earlier hearing Monday night on a local law to override the state tax-levy cap, which would be 2.6 percent for Essex County.
Akey said that cutting wages would be realistic, considering the county's fiscal crisis.
"Come up with a different solution. The 26 percent levy increase is not an acceptable solution."
The county is in negotiation on a new contract with the Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) that represents most county workers. The present agreement expires Dec. 31, and Palmer said no money has been set aside in the budget for salary increases.
"This budget does not include a raise for CSEA," he said.
The main problem with the budget is a large increase in state-mandated costs, Supervisor Daniel Connell (D-Westport) said.
"I don't think any of us are happy with this. You have a $1.7 million increase in mandates and only a $383,000 increase allowed under the cap."
Palmer said that massive layoffs could bring them in under the cap but would cripple county services. The county laid off 10 workers last year.
"If you were to eliminate every local service that's not mandated, maybe you could come under the cap, but it's just not possible with our setup," he said.
Along with the projected 2013 tax levy of $25.6 million levy, the budget totals $108 million in appropriations.
The county has a projected 2013 tax rate of $3.10 per $1,000 of assessment, up from $2.42 now.
Another public workshop will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday in the Old County Courthouse at Elizabethtown.
"This board is still working, sharing new ideas, what we think could be cut, could be added, how to operate differently," Board of Supervisors Chair Randy Douglas (D-Jay) said as the hearing began. "This (proposed budget) is not the end-all."
Palmer previously unveiled a three-year plan to balance the budget, which called for 26, 16 and 3 percent tax-levy increases each year.
Jeff Cook of Ticonderoga said at the hearing that he opposes the three-year plan.
"That plan would equate to a (large) tax increase after three years. There's places to be cut and things that can be cut."
He urged supervisors to think about taxpayers instead of union members.
Diane Kirby of Wilmington said Essex County is one of the poorest in the state and that people can't afford their property taxes now.
"I have someone in my extended family that lost his home. He could not pay his taxes. I don't know what the answer is. But it is not raising the taxes."
The budget public hearing was continued to 6:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 10. By law, the county must adopt a budget by Dec. 20.
One supervisor said he's confident they can greatly reduce the tax hike.
"I understand it might be an unimaginable challenge to meet the tax cap," Supervisor Randy Preston (I-Wilmington) said. "But there is no one here who would pass a budget like that in your town, with a 26 percent tax increase. I think we can get this down to something people can live with."
Supervisor Edward Hatch (D-Willsboro) pointed out that some areas of the budget seem to be untouchable.
"We have not really done our research to cut the budget back," he said. "If you're not going to put on the table the Sheriff's Department, Highway Department, (North Country Community) College, you're not going to get anywhere. I think we're doing things the old way, and we have to make changes."
It's going to take a lot of work and effort to make the necessary cuts, Supervisor George Canon (R-Newcomb) said.
"We can't keep kicking the can down the road. We've got to get our arms around this."
Douglas said he was getting calls from fellow supervisors on Thanksgiving night to discuss budget ideas.
"We have some tough decisions to make," he said. "There have been emails, texts, calls at 11 o'clock, sharing our concerns. This is a very hard-working body."

Five youth in the Kendall Youth Employment Program (KYEP) completed their GED requirements just before new national GED policies started in 2014. People who had passed part but not all of the GED faced a deadline of earning their GED in 2013 or starting all over again.
The youth who buckled down and earned their GED diplomas are Erin Larson, Yessica Mata, Sam Fagan-Jared, Gabriel Saucedo, and Jeff Deland.
Jeff Deland, 17, had a number of pressures on him in December besides needing to pass the GED math test, his least favorite subject. Spending a week in the hospital with an appendicitis attack "made life interesting" as did the "stampede" of last-minute test-takers filling all the available slots. Career Counselor Laura Stransky helped Deland keep abreast of test availability and helped him cram for 2 hours prior to the test. Deland ended up scoring a 500 in math which was 90 points more than he needed.
KYEP is a free program that helps 16-21 year-old youth find jobs and/or earn their GED. To be eligible for the program youth must meet income guidelines. KYEP is a program of the Grundy-Kendall Regional Office of Education and is located at 109 W. Ridge St., Yorkville. The program is funded by the River Valley Workforce Investment Board. For more information, call 630-553-4166 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Globe Columnist
JOPLIN, Mo. —
Eric Dicharry and Jamey Smith have a thing for local. The Joplin men who own and operate the Mohaska Farmhouse, 1821 S. Main St., place a great deal of weight on buying local food products to stock their restaurant's shelves.
The hillbilly bacon, served on many of their savory sandwiches and wood-fired pizzas comes from Hatfield Meats near Neosho, and their Italian sausage comes from the Ozark Heritage Farm, south of Joplin. Much of their produce comes from local growers like the Fredrickson's in Carl Junction or from growers at the Webb City Farmers Market.
"We know where it (their food supplies) come from and we know that it's not being injected with steroids," Dicharry said.
If the seasons don't allow local purchases, Dicharry and Smith order their ingredients from organic growers they know and trust.
"If it's not in season, we order it. If it is in season, we go get it," Dicharry said.
Dicharry, who spent his college years working at The Kitchen Pass in Joplin, had spent nearly 15 years running a candy vending machine operation when Smith, who owned the Redings Mill Bread Co., approached him about opening a place of their own. Dicharry jumped at the offer.
In January, the two men purchased the old Green Yates building on South Main Street that had been damaged during the May 2011 tornado. It took two months to clean the building, and then Dicharry and Smith went to work on turning the former appliance store into a restaurant.
"It was a seven-day-a-week job, but I had been in the candy business so long it was good to actually be creating something with my hands. It (the work) was a joy," he said.
The cornerstone of the Mohaska Farmhouse kitchen is probably the red brick wood-fired oven where the restaurant cooks turn out hand-crafted pizzas. Dicharry said it took three tries to get the exact oven he and Smith were looking for.
The pizza dough, as well as all of the breads served at the Mohaska Farmhouse, are handmade daily with organic flours, sea salt and water.
But don't let the emphasis on healthy ingredients fool you. The Sicilian, for example, is a sandwich that can easily feed two hungry adults. Served on toasted wheat bread, the sandwich has caramelized onions, provolone, tomato, lettuce, a creamy garlic sauce, Italian sausage and hillbilly bacon.
The pizzas range from a cheese pizza with provolone, mozzarella and Parmesan to the Carnivore, which is topped with Italian sausage, hillbilly bacon and pepperoni.
The restaurant features a number of daily homemade soup specials, including French onion, a wild mushroom chili, a sausage chili and a home-style potato soup.
There are also daily bread specials such as whole wheat, seeded whole wheat, chocolate cream cheese, Asiago, raisin pecan and jalapeno cheese. Desserts include an apple pecan flatbread and ice cream floats made with Anderson's ice cream. The restaurant's bar serves a number of craft brews as well as organic wines and cocktails.
The Mohaska Farmhouse is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

They've donned scuba masks and snorkels, armed themselves with specialized cameras and staved off a fear of the unknown to capture some of the most breathtaking images of the world below. The winners of the 2013 Annual Underwater Photography Contest offer a pinhole view into a part of the earth that most never see, from the egg-filled mouth of a dusky jawfish to a blue-ringed octopus whose fashionable pattern could give Vera Bradley a run for the money.
Kyle McBurnie's shot of a lonely harbor seal ambling in a kelp forest near San Diego took top honors out of a pool of more than 650 submissions from 23 countries. Italian Pietro Cremone's photo of a pair of Mandarin dragonets canoodling in the Philippines, meanwhile, was the fan favorite.
The University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science hosts the annual competition, and the panel of experts this year included photographer Myron Wang, underwater photographer Nicole Wang and UM marine biology professor Jiangang Luo.

SACRAMENTO — Gov. Jerry Brown and his fellow Democrats are on the cusp of a coveted supermajority in both the Assembly and Senate, giving them the rare power to raise taxes without any Republican support.
No single party has held such a supermajority in Sacramento since 1933.
To cement the dual two-thirds majorities when the Legislature gets down to business next year, Democrats must hold onto one of two Senate seats to be vacated and a few Assembly seats won in tight races. The Senate seats will be filled in special elections expected in March.

Sidelining Parents at Kid's Sports events
I've seen it too many times. Shouting matches between parents at little league games. It's a major reason some kids say they want to quit organized sports.
A recent survey by i9, a national youth sports organization, shows parents are spoiling all the fun. Nearly a third of kids ages 8 to 14 said they didn't want adults at their games because of all the yelling, the pressure to win, and the name calling. Geez, what does that tell you when the kids want to sideline their parents? 84-percent said they have quit a team or wanted to quit, mostly because it wasn't fun anymore. i9 says they're trying to bring the fun back to youth sports. Parents have to sign a code of conduct in order to participate. Sad it's come to that, but maybe it'll keep them in check.
Breast Milk Bank
A ground breaking program in Everett, Washington is now helping babies in need. The Human Milk Depot at Providence Regional Medical Center is the first of its kind in the region. It's where healthy, nursing mothers can donate extra breast milk to provide much needed nutrition for premature babies whose moms often can't produce enough. If the idea of your baby drinking another woman's milk churns your stomach, one donor says it's not much different than donating blood. In fact, blood tests are conducted on all the donors to check for diseases. The milk is pasteurized then sent to neonatal intensive care units across the country and prescribed to babies who need it. Providence says it always needs breast milk donors.
Call 425-258-7140 for more information on the Providence Mother's Milk Depot. Or go online to the Human Milk Banking Association of North America.

When did you become such a shill?
When did you become such a shill?
The airwaves...ALL OBAMA'S.
He's going to bombard the airwaves from now to primary day. Let's see if that monopoly helps.
Hey Nate,
Haven't you heard that Clinton supporters are less educated than Obama supporters.
That might explain it.
Popular vote:
Hillary 50.2%
Obama 49.8%
Look at all that decisiveness at work.
Obviously the poster doesn't know the first thing about anything, because Obama won the delegate count by 13.
SPIN, SPIN, SPIN. Is it getting dizzy here at myDD?
...and by overwhelming majorities.
Yep, Hillary is the one alright. We will cap off
I hope these idiot Clinton supporters continue to denegrate these smaller states. That way Obama won't have to focus any time in: Nebraska, Maine, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wyoming, Indiana, Montana, and South Dakota on account that the Clinton campaign has already conceded them.
Then we can OUTSPEND Hillary in all the other states coming up. Keep snarking it up Clinton supporters. It's your funeral.
That's right, you're girl is losing. No amount of spin will change that.
You're a snob. You're the reason we Democrats don't do well in red states.
My prediction...
Hillary will win Democratic nomination.
McCain will win Republican nomination.
McCain will defeat Hillary Clinton in November to retain the White House for the Republicans.
Democrats are really just that stupid.
Good night, y'all!
Are you Clinton supporters still in denial about McCain winning the Republican nomination?
This is a Clinton site.
I was initially for Obama with Hillary a close second. But for some strange, unknown reason the Clinton's idiot savants believe that they need to destroy Obama which does not speak well of their faith in Hillary and her abilities. The truth is they, and Mark Penn, is the reason this race is even close. None of this was even necessary. They could have won with class. Hillary could have used this race as a means to demonstrate her ability to bring disperate people together.
Instead the country sees her as divisive and manipulative. Election Hillary was always going to be a tough sell. But in my opinion, her campaign has probably made that impossible.
Obviously Clinton's strategy is not a very good one, since a good strategy is one that looks ahead.
These people seem quite content in winning this battle but then losing the war --- as in the general election. They do this with their complete disregard of independent voters, which becomes more obvious they will lose in the general as time goes on.
Remember that swarmy idiot Tom Delay? Remember his talk about a "majority of a majority" supporting him? Look how well that worked out for him.
Yet, Clinton's strategist Mark Penn seems quite fine with incorporating a similar strategy with his candidate. The only caveat being that Hillary wants to win the majority of a MINORITY and consign our party to electoral oblivion.
Let's hope that
This might come as a surprise, since all my feelings that do not correspond to the Hillary campaign's apparent motto of 'submit or perish,' but I have always felt that Hillary would make the best President, while Obama's message was superior and would win us the election.
Instead of adopting Obama's message, and thus becoming the best of both worlds; the Clintons, as is their custom, have decided to destroy it. They attack all that does not fit into their narrow worldview.
The couple from Hope have obviously turned against it. They mock the very things people like me believe in. This is why many people, like myself, have grown so disamoured with them. This is why independents will never support her. She has become the epitome of everything they dislike in politics.
The Clinton supporters have devolved into believing that, despite holding a significant double-digit lead among his party-base (one larger than Hillary currently enjoys among her own), John McCain will not be the Republican nominee. Because they know what everyone knows: McCain's popularity with independents, and her seeming unpopularity, will deny her the White House.
This is what I find so disconcerting. This is what I blame on Mark Penn. He has narrowed his focus to such a degree on Obama, and destroying him personally, that they can no longer see the forest from the trees. He can't see how he is strangulating his candidate's chances in the general election by his actions and decisions.
I, for the life of me, don't know why the Clintons keep this idiot around.
You seem to miss the fact that Republicans and Independents can vote in Nevada.
I say that's the reason this endorsement is significant. The Obama campaign has made outreach to independents and Republicans a priority. It's a strategy I suggest the Clintons incorporate.
I find it funny how Clinton supporters, and I count most bloggers on this site as such, always want to diminish anything that makes Obama look better than Clinton.
Sad and pathetic, really. It makes you guys look pretty insecure. Mark Penn is really a smart, smart guy [note sarcasm]. After Nevada and South Carolina, he will have won only ONE contested primary (by 2%) and have his candidate get destroyed among independents in every single one, including when she ran against no one in Michigan and still lost the independent vote by nearly 20%.
Even if she wins it'll probably be a pyrrhic victory, because of all the damage Mark Penn and the Clinton's have done to Hillary's chances with independents. This strategy being another shining example of Penn's genius.
Have at it.
He's popular enough. He can win the general...that's why he'll win the nomination. I won't win any prize if this comes true, or self-destruct if it doesn't. It's just what I think will happen. We'll know in a couple of weeks if i'm right.
But keep dreaming. I can't believe how much of Clinton's chances, to her supporters, depend on hope and a prayer.
Not exactly the most encouraging thing if you ask me given the certainty many seem to have of our retaking the White House in November.
Keep thinking that. In fact, you should also click your heels three times.
Hey, it worked for Dorothy.
McCain will be the Republican nominee. You must accept that. No amount of dreaming will change that fact.
Romney equals a certain defeat for Republicans. They're stupid, but they're not THAT stupid.
You people are fooling yourselves because you know what everybody else knows, that John McCain is the only Republican with any chance of retaining the White House. Even Guiliani will get slaughtered. According to recent polls, McCain slaughters Hillary among independents. I don't know how we will win anything if we lose the independents. I mean in Michigan Hillary lost the independents essentially to nobody, that's how popular she is with them. Anybody but Clinton, that's the story out of Michigan for us Democrats. A lot of Democrats have been going around talking like winning in 2008 was a certainty. You guys don't realize that McCain polls better against Hillary now, then Bush did against Kerry during a comparable period in 2004.
Michigan is Romney's home state, why are you guys spinning this as a great defeat for McCain? No one but you guys sees it that way.
I find this thread very strange. Who are you guys trying to convince here? Yourselves?
Do you guys honestly think that Romney will win in South Carolina? McCain will win it there. Then what? McCain will win the west, including California and Texas (the two largest states in America). He will win the majority of states on super Tuesday. He will win all the Republican super-delegates. He WILL be the nominee.
So please, stop fooling yourselves. Let's prepare for McCain as Republican nominee. Any other choice would be completely irrational for the Republicans.
You Clinton supporters are whistling past the graveyard at your own risk.
John McCain will be the Republican nominee and he will defeat Hillary Clinton.
Support Obama NOW!
When did mydd.com begin to suck ass?
I guess around the time it turned into a shill blog for the Clinton campaign.
Change, my ass. Mydd is now about maintaining the status quo.
The blogosphere sucks now because it is divided up between those who support change --- the original intent of the blogosphere --- and those wanting to kiss up to our leaders (ie Jerome Armstrong, mydd.com and others).
This latter group are more than willing to destroy everything that was worked for over the past seven years because people like Jerome have been welcomed into the status quo and have decided to stay.
Greed, selfishness and stupidity has turned it into "teh suck."
Enjoy oblivion...

Clarkstown's accessory housing proposal and school tax surcharge have drawn considerable public attention in recent weeks. Both of these items are on the agenda for Tuesday night's town board meeting.
The 8 p.m. session will begin with a less controversial topic - a special presentation to the New City-Suffern-Congers 9-10 Softball All-Stars Team. The team won a host of titles including the Eastern Regional Division Championship.
The board is scheduled to hold three public hearings. The first is on the proposed local law to allow accessory apartments in single-family residences. The second hearing deals with amending the town's wireless communications facilities law and the subject of the third hearing is authorizing the town attorney "to institute a proceeding pursuant to the town property maintenance code."
Additionally, the board will vote on rescinding the one percent collection fee for school property taxes for the 2013-2014 school year. The surcharge was imposed for the 2012-2013 school year on properties in the Clarkstown, Nanuet, Nyack and East Ramapo school districts that are within Clarkstown's borders. Town officials took the action to raise about $1.5 million after Rockland County shifted $2 million in expenses to Clarkstown.
The board is expected to set a public hearing for Thursday, Nov. 8 at 7 p.m. on Clarkstown's preliminary 2013 budget. On Friday, officials announced the proposed budget would bring a 6.2 percent tax increase.
The following agreements will be brought up for a vote:
- Employee Assistance Program Agreement with Nyack Hospital.
- New York State Power Authority regarding a solar installation
- Harbridge Consulting Group
- Settlement Agreement regarding Wireless Communication Facilities.
Tentative resolutions may be added that deal with a State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) of the Samuel Road closure and the tax levy limit.
Expected votes on personnel changes include the:
- Resignations of Thomas Trevor from the planning board and Nicolas Zoda and Jean Luther as crossing guards with the Clarkstown Police Department
- Appointment of Joanne Castaldo as a principal clerk typist in the Town Clerk's office
- Reappointment of Dolores Avaras as a member of the Board of Assessment Review.
The board is scheduled to vote on:
- Authorizing a street light installation at 113 New York Avenue, Congers.
- Authorizing installation of "Stop" Sign at Ember Drive, New City.
- Removing "Two Hour Parking " signs on the east side of Maple Avenue from Demarest Avenue south to First Street.

Check out the rest right hereTuukka Rask becomes a restricted free agent on Sunday, but it likely won't mean much.
The Bruins are close to re-signing Rask, according to ESPN.com.
As it stands, any team can extend an offer sheet to the Finnish netminder starting Sunday. The Bruins would then have the opportunity to match any offer, which it's long been assumed they'd do. However, the B's could be shutting down that possibility of an offer sheet by inking Rask to a new deal before Sunday.

LIVINGSTON — City Council, interested residents and business owners here are looking at short-, mid- and long-term ways to improve water quality and capacity.
Government officials distributed a feasibility study this week regarding the city's options for its groundwater.
"Our council and the community want a sustainable and flexible water supply," City Manager Jose Ramirez said, adding water quality declines as wells age.
Ramirez declined to go into detail until City Council, staff and the committee of "stakeholders," a group of residents and business owners, read the report and meet to discuss it.
The plan lays out the estimated costs to upgrade Livingston's existing wells, as opposed to building a water treatment plant, purchasing surface water or some hybrid of the options.
Residents of Livingston rely on 10 wells for potable water, and Livingston has dealt with contaminant issues for several years.
Regulatory agencies have periodically lowered the threshold of acceptable contaminants in wells all of Livingston's wells have some level of natural or manmade contaminants.
"We know that the (Environmental Protection Agency) and other regulatory agencies will only continue to lower the maximum contaminant level threshold," Ramirez said, adding the study will aid the pursuit of a solution.
Half of the city's wells need treatment for contaminants like manganese, arsenic and nitrate. The study states that all 10 have the potential to eventually need treatment for 1,2,3-trichloropropane, while some could need treatment for arsenic and manganese.
Often used in the production of pesticides, TCP is a man-made chemical that can cause cancer, kidney failure and tumors, according to the EPA.
Naturally occurring arsenic can lead to cancer, skin discoloration, nausea, vomiting, partial paralysis and blindness.
Manganese is essential for normal human function, but can result in effects to the central nervous system in prolonged excess exposure.
Ramirez said he also hopes to stabilize water rates.
A controversial, multi-year water rate hike passed in 2009, before Ramirez was city manager, was ruled unconstitutional by a Merced County Superior Court judge.
The increase preceded the ousting of former Mayor Daniel Varela Sr. and former Councilwoman Martha Nateras from their positions by more than 77 percent of the vote during a recall in 2010.
According to the feasibility study, construction costs for individual well treatment or one of several water treatment plant plans could be from $18 million to $27 million, with annual costs of $404,000 to $569,000.
Councilman Gurpal Samra said the different long-term plans have their own pros and cons. He said he hasn't made up his mind on which plan is best.
Treatment to individual wells, Samra said, is cheaper up front with greater costs to maintain them. Meanwhile, he said, a water treatment plant would be most expensive to build, but cost less to run.
"I just need to know (which will give) the most return on our investment for our people," Samra said.
On the short-term side of water upgrades, the city budget, which has not yet been approved, has earmarked more than $5 million for engineering, improved water meters and upgrades to some of the most problematic wells.

A steady flow of Clarkstown North students moved boxes of donated school supplies from a storage area to the high school lobby on Friday in preparation for their delivery to P.S. 43 in Far Rockaway. Lakewood, Bardonia and Woodglen elementary school students joined the high school students and teachers in collecting supplies. Donations also came from youth groups at local churches and synagogues and area businesses.
Clarkstown teachers Aimee Santiago and Penelope Macias said students in North's IB History of the Americas Year I and Syracuse Project Advance Public Policy course started the project about two weeks ago after hearing about P.S 43 being flooded and without power for more than two weeks after Hurricane Sandy.
The students felt a need to get involved after hearing about the school and students' losses.
"Now they have to start all over," said Clarkstown North senior Jenevieve Nutovits. "So we felt responsible to try and help them."
Samantha Streitman, also a senior, said, "We felt that it was our duty as a school because we have so much to try and give back to them."
The idea quickly took off with thousands of items from pens, crayons, and binders to backpacks, folders and loose-leaf paper and hand sanitizer being donated. Most of the supplies were brand new with some of the children's books being gently used.
"They've been a pleasure to work with," said Santiago about all the students. "They've kind of taken it and ran with it."
Santiago and Macias said some P.S. 43 students were still without power at home and had lost many personal possessions. They said the supplies will be given to the teachers to distribute.
"When we called, they were very receptive," Macias said. "When I said we would like to donated school supplies, they were over the moon."
Coincidentally Santiago's brother was involved in another benefit effort for P.S. 43. He was helping to collect coats for the students and staff.
Principal Harry Leonardatos said the district's transportation department helped out figuring the number of boxes needed and determining what size vehicle would be best to transport the boxes and students and teachers.
A line of students carried the packed boxes out to a Clarkstown School Bus, filling it and leaving just enough empty seats for the passengers. About 15 students and teachers will make the trip to Far Rockaway early Saturday morning and present the supplies to P.S. 43, a pre-kindergarten through 10th grade school.

Unemployed CB Pacman Jones recently worked out in New Orleans for a handful of teams, and the Lions remain one of the clubs interested in his services.
Lions' second draft pick extremely important
There is no question that what the Lions do with their first pick will have a lot to say about the overall success of their draft haul. But their second choice very well could be a starter.
Niners trade Hill to Lions
The 49ers have traded QB Shaun Hill to the Lions for a seventh-round draft pick in 2011, the Sacramento Bee reports, citing a league source.

Lions could use 'extra' linebackers more
The Lions are not expected to make wholesale scheme changes on defense, but there could be a way to enhance the productivity of the unit using parts that already are on the roster.
Lions expecting far more from Derrick Williams
The Lions hit on several draft picks as playing time for youth was readily available this season, but third-round WR Derrick Williams was a disappointment.

Robiskie was the Browns' only unsigned rookie. Robiskie is expected to compete for a starting job with Mohammed Massaquoi, who was also selected in the second round of April's draft.

About The Brand:
Pulsar was born in an age of optimism. In the 1970's, everything seemed achievable through the rapidly growing technological expertise at the world's fingertips. Space flight had been converted from dream to reality, computer science was developing at break neck speed and electronics seemed to deliver new advances every day. Pulsar symbolized the age. It was new and it was bold, it was surprising and it was different. Pulsar, the world's first electronic digital watch, created a sensation when it was unveiled in New York in 1972 and it changed the world's perception of time. A tradition of difference When the brand was taken into the Seiko Corporation in 1980, it brought further surprises to the world; the first calculator watch in 1980 and the first all-quartz watch line in 1981 were among its industry-leading achievements. And throughout the '80's and 90's Pulsar continued to bring to market new products that were born to be different. The Avant-garde collection in 1980's set a new style in women's watches and Spoon in 1990's were unique designs which further cemented Pulsar's image as an ingenious and surprising watchmaker. Towards a modernist future Today, Pulsar remains loyal to its heritage. It was born to be different and it will remain so. Each Pulsar watch has the hint of the futurism and modernity that have always been its hallmark. Pulsar is a brand for the individual who appreciates real value and seeks quality with individuality and flair.

Pulsar Watches
In 1972, the Hamilton Watch Company started producing a new kind of watch. In the space-exploring spirit of the times, it was dubbed "Pulsar" - which means the remnants of a star - and it featured a futuristic design.

Today, Pulsar watches are considered to be among the most elegant, classy and technologically-savvy timepieces on the market. They are manufactured in New Jersey, and they are very affordable. If you're looking for a new watch, a Pulsar is always a great choice.
When it comes to style, Pulsar never skimps. From stainless steel to gold tone, the materials and designs that are used for their timepieces and watches are always impeccable and tasteful.

Ada —
The Ada Police Department announced today that it is joining close to 10,000 other law enforcement agencies nationwide in support of an intensive crackdown on impaired driving.
The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign begins Aug. 16 and runs through Labor Day.
Ada Police will be joined in their efforts by the Pontotoc County Sheriff's Department, the Chickasaw Nation Lighthorse Police, and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.
"Our message is simple and unwavering," said APD Sgt. Jason Potter. "If we catch you driving impaired, we will arrest you. No exceptions. Even if you beat the odds and manage to walk away from an impaired-driving crash, the trauma and financial costs of a crash or an arrest for driving while impaired can still destroy your life."
Across the country it is illegal to drive with a blood alcohol concentration of .08 grams per deciliter or higher. According to the latest data, nearly a third of fatalities in motor vehicle traffic crashes involved a driver or motorcycle rider with a BAC above the legal limit – an average of one fatality every 53 minutes.
In 2011, almost 10,000 people died in crashes in which a driver or motorcycle rider was at or above the legal limit, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Over the past five years, an average of 220 people per year were arrested in alcohol- or drug-related traffic stops by Ada Police Department officers alone.
Potter said that law enforcement officers will aggressively search for impaired drivers during the campaign and will arrest anyone found driving while impaired – regardless of age, vehicle type, or time of day. In addition, seat belt law violators will be ticketed.
"Since twice as many alcohol-impaired accidents occur over the weekend and four times as many occur at night, we will be especially vigilant during these high-risk times when impaired drivers are most likely to be on our roads," Potter said.
For more information on the campaign, please visit www.stopimpaireddriving.org.

These were HEAVENLY! My husband and I would give them 10 stars if we could. I lined a grill basket with tinfoil and put the chicken and some marinade into it and grilled the pieces that way. I used dried rosemary and cut the sugar in half. I also used low fat ranch dressing and completely omitted the salt because it just isn't necessary. These were melt in your mouth MOIST and DELICIOUS!! Even my 19-month-old and 3-year-old gobbled this up. The marinade from the grill basket was also incredible poured over white rice. EXCELLENT RECIPE!!!!! EDIT: I've since made this recipe on the stove top and in the oven in order to use up all the marinade (which is INCREDIBLE on rice) and both alternate methods are good by the oven is a better 2nd choice as the stove top method tended to dry the chicken out a bit but still tasted great! I bake it with all the marinade on 450 for 20 minutes. Melt in your mouth moist! EDIT AGAIN: I tried another reviewers recommendation to use Trader Joe's ranch dressing...just not that good with it. It might be slightly healthier for you but I'm willing to splurge for the little dressing that's used and use hidden valley ranch light. Made a HUGE difference to my family and to guests who've had it both ways. Cut back on oil...but use flavorful ranch dressing!
Very tender chicken! I would use this marinade for chicken breasts as well. We reserved a little of the marinade and added more ranch dressing for a nice dipping sauce on the side. UPDATE: I've made these so many times now because they're just that good. You can cut down on the oil and substitute dried rosemary for the fresh if you don't have any on hand. I always use the sugar and 1 tsp. of salt vs. two. If you're looking to cut down on calories Hidden Valley Ranch Light Buttermilk Dressing works great with this recipe. I usually marinate this at least 6 hours. No matter what you do - it's bound to come out moist and delicious.
Crystal S
This was fabulous! Based on other reviews, I cut back the olive oil to 1/4 cup and omitted the salt and am glad I did. Threw fresh rosemary twigs (soaked in water for 1/2 hour) in the smoker while barbequing these and the aroma, oh my, the aroma! If I was Italian I would be kissing my fingers. Momma Mia!!! Thanks for a great recipe!

Alvin C. Ogg, 79, of Lewiston, NY, passed away September 18, 2013, after a lengthy illness, surrounded by his loving family and under the devoted and compassionate care of the staff at Our Lady of Peace Nursing Home. He was born on June 13, 1934 in Swissvale, PA, the only child of the late Alvin W. and Margaret (Ellyette) Ogg.
He was predeceased by the love of his life, Donna H. Ogg after 54 years of marriage. He is survived by his daughters, Diane L. (Mark) Johnson of Lewiston, NY, and Cynthia L. (Michael) Kline of Grand Island, NY. He was the loving and proud grandfather (Poppy) of Stephen O. and Kaitlyn L. Johnson and K. Cole Kline. He is also survived by his sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Linda H. and Rowland I.C. New of New Market, MD, and several nieces and nephews.
Al was graduated from Wilkinsburg Senior High School in 1952 and the University of Pittsburgh in 1956 with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. It was there he met his sweetheart Donna and they were married on August 10, 1957.
In 1956 Al moved to Niagara Falls, NY to begin a career with Union Carbide Corporation, Carbon Products Division. He was transferred to Parma, OH in 1965, and returned to Niagara Falls in 1969. During his career he held several positions with UCAR Carbon, retiring in 1999 as plant manager.
Professionally he was a member of the American Management Association, a committee member of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America, a member of the Niagara Falls Chamber of Commerce, the Niagara Falls Citizens Management Advisory Board, and was also on the executive committee of the Ecumenical Taskforce of Love Canal.
Al was elected to serve as Lewiston Town Councilman from 1980 to 1988. In 1983 he was honored as Lewiston Democrat of the Year.
His greatest joy in life came from helping others. He was a trustee, elder, and deacon at both the First Presbyterian Church of Lewiston and Youngstown. He was a volunteer with Habitat for Humanity and was a member of the choir and Fix-It Club at the First Presbyterian Church of Youngstown. Al was a staunch advocate for environmental issues as evidenced in all facets of his life. He loved spending time with his family vacationing on the Outer Banks of North Carolina walking on the beach, fishing, and visiting the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, especially with his cherished grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, November 2, at the First Presbyterian Church of Youngstown at 11:00 AM, with the Reverend Dr. Rex T. Stewart and Reverend Dr. Charles F. Lamb officiating.

Rutland late-payers owe city $2 millionBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | June 16,2013Rutland City Treasurer Wendy Wilton says delinquencies are the highest she has ever seen.
As of June 6, the total for taxes, water, sewer and general bills related to parcels totaled roughly $2 million. Wilton said she intended to cut that by about two-thirds by December, and will send out notices of intent to tax sale next week.
Water and sewer delinquencies have been creeping up, she says. Part of that is because water and sewer cost more. I think there are greater numbers of people delinquent and the delinquent bills are bigger.
Wilton has noted an upward trend in delinquencies for some time.
A lot of these delinquencies are really recent and people who havent been late in the past suddenly were, she says. People are struggling. The landlords theyve had a tough go of it. Its been a tough economic environment, but given these numbers, we have to move forward with this. ... Im putting it out there to make sure people understand the process.
Parcels more than two years or $2,000 delinquent in taxes and/or water and sewer and those more than $1,000 delinquent on water and sewer alone will be subject to tax sale, which will likely take place in mid-July.
Owners still have one year from the date of tax sale to redeem the properties.
Wilton says she has a list of 270 properties, though she said she wont disclose the list until letters to the property owners have gone out.
Some of those are going to come off, she says. A lot of them are going to come off. The owner is going to step up and pay or the bank is going to step up and pay.
Wilton also says the citys anti-blight efforts will figure into the process.
There are a couple properties on this list that are vacant, that are abandoned, she says. Those are going to be my top priorities.
Meanwhile, Wilton says she and Public Works Commissioner Jeffrey Wennberg are planning a round of shut-offs of delinquent water and sewer accounts in August. That effort will target parcels delinquent by $1,000 or less.

Fire destroys home in Waxhaw
WAXHAW, N.C. -- A fire destroyed a home in Waxhaw Thursday morning while the family was on vacation in Florida.
Fire officials said a home off of Kensington Drive in the Quellin subdivision caught fire around 3:30 a.m.
It took about 30 firefighters to get the fire under control, but the home suffered massive damage from the fire.
David Hord and his family live on the same cul-de-sac where the home burned. He and his family were evacuated from their home when firefighters realized there were embers on their roof and driveway.
"We jumped up really quick and got out and the whole cul-de-sac was just full of everybody, he said. "Neighbors were out here. There was nothing we could do. That place was just going up."
(Click here to see images from the fire)
Neighbors said the family that lived in the house was on vacation in Florida.
The family was notified and was on the way back to North Carolina on Thursday morning. Hord and his wife said they are friends with the family who lives in the destroyed home.
"They have an 8-year-old and I think a 3-year-old and it's just, you know, it's horrible."
The Union County Fire Marshall says the cause of the fire is under investigation.

Citing an issue he covered with a metro Atlanta rotary club last year, U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss announced Friday that he is not seeking re-election in 2014.
"This is about frustration, both at a lack of leadership from the White House and at the dearth of meaningful action from Congress, especially on issues that are the foundation of our nation's economic health," Chambliss said in a statement. "The debt-ceiling debacle of 2011 and the recent fiscal-cliff vote showed Congress at its worst and, sadly, I don't see the legislative gridlock and partisan posturing improving anytime soon.
"For our nation to be strong, for our country to prosper, we cannot continue to play politics with the American economy."
In a speech before the Brookhaven Rotary in January 2012, Chambliss said, "Our number one security interest in America is not al-Qaeda. It's our debt.' We're looking at a reduction in defense spending like you've never seen. We can see another 600 million in defence reduction over the next 10 years. If that happens, I can tell you it will be a hallow military representating the United states of America."
Chambliss said he was confident he would have won re-election had he decided to seek another term.
Patch wants to know: who should run for Chambliss' seat? What about U.S. Rep. John Lewis, who represents the heart of Atlanta and Midtown in his 5th Congressional District? Or David Scott from the 13th Congressional District?
On the Republican side, the name of former state representative and 2012 presidential candidate Newt Gingrinch immediately surfaced Friday, but his camp quickly squashed the notion. So did fellow 2012 presidential candidate Herman Cain, who said he's focusing on his new WSB radio show.

Yamaha's Vino caters to the market for vintage styled scooters. Vino offers a peppy ride and is available in two models Vino Classic and Vino 125. While the Vino 125 model didn't make it to the 2010 Yamaha USA scooter line-up, the 2010 Yamaha Vino Classic has all the classic retro style looks with Yamaha's modern engineering.
The 2010 Yamaha Vino Classic offers a spacious storage compartment that can easily stow away groceries to backpacks, freeing up space for a more comfortable ride. This scooter is also easy to park and convenient to zip across town with. However, it lacks the punch when it comes to power. In 2010 Yamaha colors the Vino Classic in a raspberry metallic palette.

Prologue: Something Wicked This Way Comes
Rio stiffened beneath my touch, striking a glossy hoof against the floor.
"What, girl?" I asked, still fighting the tangle that snarled her ebony mane. She snorted, nostrils turning the red of fresh blood. She shook, long neck yanking the brush out of my fingers. It bounced off the opposite stall wall with a thump. "Rio!" Keeping a hand on her, I walked around to her other side and leaned down to search for the brush. For a moment everything was eerily still — completely quiet.
