Dear Editor,
On Thursday, October 25 at 7pm in the RHO Building, the Stony Point Planning Board will open a Public Hearing on the Biomass Gasification Plant being proposed by Patrick Magee and MBC Construction for the old Insulux Building on Holt Drive Office/Light Industrial Park.
The company that is proposing the project is New Planet Energy of California. They are looking at other sites, but are interested in Stony Point because of the potential location near the CSX rail lines. The process they are proposing is a waste to energy gasification process, that processes garbage into ethanol, steam and ash.
SPACE has reviewed the preliminary plans for the project and I believe it may have great potential environmental and economic benefits for town. In response to our introduction to the proposal, I have written a letter to MBC, encouraging the applicant to proceed with the review process with town, county, state and federal agencies. My letter is not to be construed as an endorsement of this project, but as an indication of our interest in learning more about the gasification proposal, the emerging technology, the environmental issues and the economic benefits for the Town of Stony Point.
Please read the article printed last month in the Journal News. I ask that you forward this notice to your neighbors and invite them to attend this important meeting. I ask that you come to learn about the proposal and keep an open mind, ask questions and plan to attend future public meetings to learn more about the proposal.
Please help us spread the word.
PUBLIC HEARING: Thursday, October 25, 2012
TIME: 7pm, Stony Point Planning Board at the RHO Community Building, Clubhouse Lane (Letchworth)
Unfortunately, the Town of Stony Point has done little or no publicity or public outreach for this important meeting besides placing the mandatory legal notice. If you read the attached copy of the Planning Board agenda, you cannot tell what is even being proposed or discussed at the meeting. In the interest of full transparency and good communication with the residents, I would have preferred to see the Town of Stony Point make a more concerted effort to announce this important meeting on the town website, to the press, so as many town residents as possible could attend this public hearing and learn more about this proposal.
Please visit our SPACE website to read my letter and receive updates as the project plan is further developed.In the end, the Town Board and Planning Board will have to decide if this project is good for Stony Point and the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation will have to determine if it is safe for our residents. Meanwhile, we encourage you to learn as much as you can so that you can also reach an informed decision.
George Potanovic, Jr.
President, SPACE (Stony Point Action Committee for the Environment)

- Description
Hyper-Anabolic Post-Workout Muscle Growth Accelerator*
- Utilizing Oligopeptides for Fast Absorption
- Fast Impact Insulinotropic Amino Acids
- Peptide Bonded Glutamine
- 10:1:1 BCAA Complex Triggers Protein Synthesis*
- Osmotic Carb Complex Spikes Insulin and Replenishes Glycogen
Faster Absorption Than Whey* – Stimulates Protein Synthesis* – Significantly Spikes Insulin* Helps Maximize Creatine Uptake and Glycogen Replenishment*
Don't waste another workout! If you want to start gaining serious size, chug down some DARK MATTER and introduce your muscles to a new frontier of hyper-anabolic muscle growth. The greatest opportunity to stimulate muscle growth is immediately after your workout. The faster you can get critical nutrients into your bloodstream and muscles, the better. DARK MATTER employs new technologies and compounds that allow for super-fast nutrient uptake and help spark a synergistic anabolic reaction during which insulin levels peak with amino acid, creatine and glycogen transport at the "Anabolic Axis" to trigger enhanced muscle growth and speed recovery.*
PROSYNTHAGEN® Peptide: Increases Protein Synthesis and Spikes Insulin*
ProSYNTHAGEN Peptide is a research based combination of oligopeptides, insulinotropic aminos, BCAAs in a potent leucine loaded 10:1:1 ratio and a concentrated source of glutamine peptides. Research shows that this combination of amino acids has powerful effects on stimulating protein synthesis, the release of insulin and replenishment of glutamine stores in muscle. Additionally, ProSYNTHAGEN Peptide is fine-tuned with a High Velocity Dual Portal Transport for even faster and greater intestinal uptake by combining powerful insulinotropic and anabolic free form aminos with oligopeptides. These unique characteristics help give ProSYNTHAGEN Peptide a potent anabolic effect, which can result in enhanced muscle building and recovery*
GLYCOSACCHARIDE-FST: Amplifies Anabolic Actions of Insulin and Replenishes Glycogen!*
GLYCOSACCHARIDE-FST is an advanced carbohydrate matrix comprised of three functional saccharides to optimize the post-workout anabolic actions of insulin and reload your muscles with glycogen. This advanced carb matrix of Homo-polysaccharide (derived from potato), Polysaccharide (derived from low viscosity, high molecular weight osmotic waxy maize starch) and Oligosaccharide (derived from Maltoplex-18 glucose polymers) allows for fast gastric emptying, a quick, powerful spike in insulin and enhanced glycogen replenishment. GLYCOSACCHARIDE-FST's carb matrix was scientifically developed to deliver a nutrient infusion to help elicit a greater insulin response and open the anabolic window faster and keep it open longer. To further enhance the anabolic effects of insulin, DARK MATTER contains the insulin amplifiers and optimizers 4-hydroxyisoleucine, chromium picolinate and guanidinopropionic acid, which help improve insulin signaling and sensitivity for increased anabolic action, nutrient transport, protein synthesis, creatine/nutrient uptake and glycogen replenishment.*
HYDROSIZE®: Multi-Phase Creatine Transport & Cell Volumizing Matrix*
To complete the optimal post-workout anabolic infusion, MHP's research team developed HydroSIZE, which is a multi-source creatine/glycerol complex for enhanced muscle volumizing and bioenergetic creatine loading into muscle tissue.

- Health Notes
Oregon GrapeOregon GrapeThis nutrient has been used in connection with the following health goals
- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Bitter herbs are thought to stimulate digestive function by increasing saliva production and promoting both stomach acid and digestive enzyme production.1 As a result, they are particularly used when there is low stomach acid but not in heartburn (where too much stomach acid could initially exacerbate the situation). These herbs literally taste bitter. Some examples of bitter herbs include greater celandine, wormwood, gentian,dandelion, blessed thistle, yarrow, devil's claw, bitter orange, bitter melon, juniper, andrographis, prickly ash, and centaury.2. Bitters are generally taken either by mixing 1-3 ml tincture into water and sipping slowly 10-30 minutes before eating, or by making tea, which is also sipped slowly before eating.
Some bitters widely used in traditional medicine in North America include yarrow, yellow dock, goldenseal, Oregon grape, and vervain. Oregon grape's European cousin barberry has also traditionally been used as a bitter. Animal studies indicate that yarrow, barberry, and Oregon grape, in addition to stimulating digestion like other bitters, may relieve spasms in the intestinal tract.3References

Due to of its supposed antimicrobial activity, goldenseal has a long history of use for infectious diarrhea. Its major alkaloid, berberine (also found in barberry and Oregon grape), has been shown to improve infectious diarrhea in some double-blind trials.1 Negative studies have generally focused on people with cholera, while positive studies investigated viral diarrhea or diarrhea due to strains of E. coli. These studies generally used 400-500 mg berberine one to three times per day. Because of the low amount of berberine in most goldenseal products, it is unclear how effective the whole root or root extracts would be in treating diarrhea.ReferencesInfectionDose: Refer to label instructions
Herbs that support a person's immune system in the fight against microbes and directly attack microbes include the following: barberry, echinacea, elderberry, goldenseal, licorice, Oregon grape, osha, and wild indigo.ParasitesDose: Refer to label instructions
Berberine is derived from several plants, including barberry, Oregon grape, goldenseal, and goldthread (Coptis chinensis). Preliminary trials have shown that berberine can be used successfully to treat giardia infections.1, 2 In addition, test tube studies show that berberine kills amoebae, although it is not known whether this effect occurs in humans.3 The amount required is approximately 200 mg three times per day for an adult-a level high enough to potentially cause side effects. Therefore, berberine should not be used without consulting a healthcare provider.References

An ointment containing Oregon grape (10% concentration) has been shown in a clinical trial to be mildly effective against moderate psoriasis but not more severe cases.1 Whole Oregon grape extracts were shown in one laboratory study to reduce inflammation often associated with psoriasis.2 In this study, isolated alkaloids from Oregon grape did not have this effect. This suggests that there are other active ingredients besides alkaloids in Oregon grape. Barberry, which is very similar to Oregon grape, is believed to have similar effects. An ointment, 10% of which contains Oregon grape or barberry extract, can be applied topically three times per day.ReferencesUrinary Tract InfectionDose: Refer to label instructions
Goldenseal is reputed to help treat many types of infections. It contains berberine, an alkaloid that may prevent UTIs by inhibiting bacteria from adhering to the wall of the urinary bladder.1 Goldenseal and other plants containing berberine (such as Oregon grape) may help in the treatment of UTIs. These herbs have not, however, been studied for the treatment of UTIs in humans.ReferencesChronic CandidiasisDose: Refer to label instructions
Berberine is an alkaloid found in various plants, including goldenseal, barberry, Oregon grape, and goldthread. Berberine exhibits a broad spectrum of antibiotic and antifungal activity in test tube, animal, and human studies.1, 2 Berberine has shown effective antidiarrheal activity in a number of diarrheal diseases,3, 4, 5 and it may offer the same type of relief for the diarrhea seen in patients with chronic candidiasis. Doctors familiar with the use of berberine-containing herbs sometimes recommend taking 2 to 4 grams of the dried root (or bark) or 250 to 500 mg of an herbal extract three times a day. While isolated berberine has been studied, none of these herbs has been studied in humans with chronic candidiasis.References

Parts Used & Where Grown
Oregon grape is an evergreen shrub which grows throughout the American northwest. It is somewhat misnamed, as the fruit are not actually grapes. It is, however, grown in Oregon (it is the official state flower). Oregon grape is a close relative of barberry(Berberis vulgaris), and shares many common uses and constituents. The root is used medicinally.

Police from six states will be out on DUI patrols this weekend looking for drunk drivers who are getting an early start to the Fourth of July holiday.
Troopers from the , Ohio Highway Patrol and West Virginia State Police held a press conference Friday morning so travelers know officers will be putting up a combine effort to target intoxicated drivers.
Maj. Tim Mercer of the Pennsylvania State Police they are trying to network with other agencies to have a broader effort against drinking and driving he said while standing at the I-79 rest stop near .
"Driving under the influence continues to be a danger for Pennsylvania motorists," Mercer said, "and it's a threat we take very seriously.
Mercer said Pennsylvania State Police have investigated 2,477 DUI crashes this year and arrested 7,400 drunk drivers. Those numbers are actually trending downward, he said, as troopers think motorists are getting the message from enforcement efforts.
There will be several sobriety checkpoints in various "high-intensity areas" around western Pennsylvania and numerous roving DUI patrols this weekend. He added that the patrols won't necessarily just be on main highways, but also country back roads.
Capt. Cory Davies of the Ohio Highway Patrol said he couldn't believe the amount of traffic on Interstates 70 and 79 as he drove from his barracks in Cambridge, OH. He hopes the weekend's "networking" between the agencies will give them more coverage during a prime travel weekend.
"We determined there was not enough of us and we needed to team up," Davies said.
Capt. James Merrill, who is the troop commander for West Virginia's northern panhandle, said he is looking forward to working "side-by-side-by-side" with all the police agencies. Indiana, Kentucky and Michigan are also participating in the weekend efforts.
"If we're able to save one life … because we're out on the roads, then we've accomplished our mission," Merrill said. "I hope and pray that these efforts only grow."

Mexico's large population makes it a rich source of opportunities for Canadian businesses. Since the entry in force of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in 1994, bilateral trade between Canada and Mexico has more than quadrupled reaching almost USD30bn in 2012. Mexico is Canada's fifth-largest export market. During the past 10 years, EDC has provided more than USD20bn in financial trade support for Canadian companies doing business in Mexico. As of 2011, Canada was the sixth largest foreign investor in Mexico, accounting for over USD5bn of Canadian direct investment into the country. There are an estimated 2,500 Canadian affiliates based out of Mexico, the largest ones being Goldcorp, Bombardier and Scotiabank. Given Mexico's commitment to free trade Canadian investors and exporters can also gain immediate access to over 40 markets across the world with which Mexico has signed trade agreements. Mexico also offers a welcoming environment for businesses in almost every sector except energy. As a result, a number of foreign companies are re-shoring their manufacturing operations from China to Mexico to better access the US market and lower costs.
Through our representations in Mexico City and Monterrey, Mexico, we provide on-the-ground support to Canadian companies planning on or currently doing business in Mexico. Our regional representatives have developed strategic relationships with major buyers in key sectors as well as an extensive network of local contacts in the market.

Giants have been raiding the civilized lands in large bands, visiting death and destruction upon villages, towns, and farmlands. Entire militias have been conquered, entire crops wiped out. These marauding bands consist of mixed groups of hill giants, stone giants, frost giants, and fire giants, as well as ogres and other monsters allied with the giants.
Determined to repel the invaders, local lords have begun hiring brave adventurers. The first few groups didn't fare well. Some were crushed beneath the boulders and jackboots of rampaging giants, and others simply never returned from the wilderness. Now, a new band of adventurers has assembled to punish the destructive giants and banish them from the civilized lands.
The original adventures were written by Gary Gygax and published in 1978 by TSR, Inc. The tripartite "Giants" series was later collected into a single adventure module titled Against the Giants and published by TSR in 1981.

En español | The food you eat may have a lot to do with the health of your brain as you age, according to the latest nutritional research.
People in their late 80s with higher blood levels of B, C, D and E vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids (found in good fats) did better on cognitive tests and had less of the brain shrinkage typical of Alzheimer's disease, according to a recent study led by Gene Bowman, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) in Portland.
A University of Miami study found that individuals who ate a Mediterranean diet, including vegetables, fruits, small amounts of meat and fish, whole grains, nuts and olive oil, had less small blood-vessel damage in the brain. Other studies have highlighted the apparent dementia-fighting benefits of leafy greens and vegetables like cabbage and cauliflower.
What you don't eat matters, too. Artery-clogging trans fats are a clear no-no, and a recent Mayo Clinic study found that eating fewer than 2,150 calories a day was linked to better brain health.
Simply popping vitamin pills probably won't protect the brain, says Bowman. "There are hundreds or thousands of different molecules in foods we eat," he says, so it's likely that eating a balanced diet is key to staving off dementia.
Mary Ann Johnson, a University of Georgia nutrition scientist and spokesperson for the American Society for Nutrition, agrees. "It really reinforces how fundamental healthy eating is to our well-being," she says.
Further research is needed to confirm the diet/brain health link. In the meantime, consider eating more of the following foods to help protect your brain:

text: If Elena wins this, it will be a "best of the worst" situation, IMO. After looking at them again, I have to say that I wasn't really impressed by any of the final collections; I liked a few pieces from each, but the only two that wowed me were Gunnar and Sonjia, and not in a good way. I suspect that Ven did not make the F3 - his collection included the rose bodice/pleated palazzo pant from episode one, and the pink cocktail dress looks like the one on his website (in red, modeled by ANTM S10's Claire Unabia).

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — Oklahoma knows all too well how tough it is to win in February. Its last 24 games in the month have resulted in just three wins. Games like Saturday's against No. 18 Kansas State at Lloyd Noble Center exemplify why it can be so hard.
The Sooners' 52-50 loss to the Wildcats was one of those games that it took more guts than gusto to win.
"We guarded; they guarded," Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said. "We made enough plays when it counted."
On the offensive end, there weren't many of them. Both teams struggled to get any sort of offensive flow going. Every shot, pass and even cut through the lane was vigorously contested on both ends.
The Sooners, who dropped to 14-6 overall and 5-3 in the Big 12 Conference, handled it a little worse.
"We had trouble getting separation and trouble scoring," OU coach Lon Kruger said. "Credit Kansas State; they were a better club and deserved to win."
Getting shots wasn't OU's biggest problem; making them was. It went 10 minutes and 40 seconds without a point during a stretch late in the first half through the beginning of the second half. Kansas State (17-4, 6-2) only managed to go on 6-0 run during the Sooners' offensive futility.
Still, going over a quarter of the game without scoring a single point was demoralizing.
"You realize it, but can't dwell on it. You realize you have to get a stop and go at them again on the offensive end. We had a lot of opportunities and shots didn't fall," said OU forward Romero Osby, who scored a game-high 13 points.
Percentage wise, OU actually outshot the Wildcats. It was 19 for 49 from the field (38.8 percent). Kansas State shot 37.5 percent (21 for 56). Kansas State made five 3-pointers, which was two more than the Sooners. OU negated that narrow edge at the free-throw line.
What OU couldn't overcome were the 14 turnovers it committed.
Kruger shuffled his backcourt throughout the game to find something that resembled success against the Wildcats. Starting guards Steven Pledger and Je'lon Hornbeak spent more than half the game on the bench and combined for just two points. Freshman guard Isaiah Cousins made two of OU's three 3-pointers and Sam Grooms, who didn't play at all in the first half, wound up being the Sooners' go-to player in the final minutes.
"Sam gave us a good spark," Kruger said. "He gave us some attack and we didn't have much attack. Sam got it going downhill a couple of times and we needed that. He gave us a good lift when he went in the ball game. He made some nice plays."
The two biggest were a 3-pointer from the top of the key with 55 seconds left that cut Kansas State's lead to 50-48. Grooms made another with a driving layup with 13 seconds that tied the game for the first time since the 7:30 mark in the first half.
But winning required one more play and Kansas State's Angel Rodriguez blew by Grooms to make it.
The Wildcats' point guard darted by Grooms and into the body of OU forward Amath M'Baye to get to the free-throw line with 5 seconds left. Rodriguez made both free throws.
"I was expecting the ball screen," Grooms said. "They had been running them all night, and he had been going right. He went left. He beat me. Credit him."
Grooms got off the Sooners' last gasp — a contested 25-footer at the buzzer — but it was short. Another stretch of February games starts with another brutally tough loss.
The Sooners, who haven't had a losing streak all season, face Iowa State at 6 p.m., Monday at Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa. They'll go there with the full knowledge of just how hard it can be to win conference games at this point in the season.
"Today's reminder is that we still have a ways to go," Kruger said.

Four Styles – Teeth Whitening Tips You Can't Afford To MissThis is far gentler on your teeth than the pastes, trays, and strips available at the drug store. While you are showering, merely swish hydrogen peroxide in your mouth, but do not swallow it. Do this once or twice a week. Decrease the amount of mouthwash you use. If you use it regularly and your teeth are not as white as you would like, you should stop using it. Mouthwash is made up of many harmful chemicals. Some of these chemicals can stain and discolor your teeth. Teeth can discolor from age, nicotine, caffeine, and other detremental things you use. You can turn back time and erase the effects of bad decisions by using a teeth whitening treatment to restore your pearly whites.When going with home whitening kits, make sure that they have the proper concentration of peroxide to remove stains on your teeth. Generally you want to look for concentrations of at least 10 percent peroxide. Any higher can be destructive to your enamel and any lower may not be strong enough to make a difference.If you want your teeth whitening done fast, go to a professional teeth whitening service. To get the best results and the whitest Read A Little More
Top secret Poker SystemThe first card dealt is an ace, so we start by having -1. Then 6 is the next card dealt so we add 1. This makes the run count back to zero. Then a 3 and 4 follows, making the run count now 2.Make sure that you stop. Many players forget this pretty simple rule and loose all the savings they earned from playing slots and sometimes very much more. It is easy to get carried away when you see the moolah roll in. True champs quit when they are still at a high.If you are a amateur, learn how to use it to your advantage, and go a step further and win poker online games with no knowledge of illegal card counting that can get you kicked out of any on line casino.However, there are people who have devised some tips and strategies to get an edge over the other players. There are times that these tips really can help some people win.Stick on 17; no matter what your gut says, just stick with what you have.

Started on My New Job This Week
I am up here in Alberta, Canada now. I have a job working in the petrochemical industry in the area of Red Deer, Alberta, servicing a lot of the oil production companies in the area. If you do not anything about the place, then you are just like I was a few weeks ago. It is about half of the way between Calgary and Edmonton. When my boss sent me up here I did not even know which province it was in and I was just checking it out on Google. I need to find a red deer real estate agent now and try to find a place to stay that is going to be within the housing allowance that I have. I definitely need to think about getting a tougher truck too, because I am going out in the bush and getting into the deep muddy back wash of this world. Of course I have a Ford F 350 and I got some big tires on it, with a power winch on the front. So I feel like I can probably get out of most problems.
The trouble is that I am pretty much going overland pulling a low boy trailer on my fifth wheel. Usually I have a front end loader or something like that on that trailer and I have to take it out into the middle of the wilderness where these guys are messing about with their oil rigs. I go out and see if I can fix what their problem is, but if I can not, then I swap out that extra machine for the one that broke down on them. Of course these guys can tear stuff up pretty good and there is a definite limit to what I can do out in the middle of nowhere.Read A Little More

Got a Free Car, but It is Going to Cost Me
A couple of days ago I was walking past a house down the street. Mr Tompkins was about to put a sign on the old car that he has owned as long as I can remember. I stopped to say hi and asked him if he had any work that needed to be done, because he is one of my best customers for yard jobs and that sort of thing. Then I realized he was going to give that car to anyone who would take it and I drove it off. I need a really cheap auto insurance policy now, in fact I need all sorts of stuff. My Dad made me take the car to my friend's house actually. It leaks oil and he says that it is not going near his driveway until I fix that. So I drove it down the street and put a big piece of cardboard under it after finding a box and taking it apart.
The car definitely looks like it has been driven for a very long time. Read A Little More
We Are Moving So That the Boss Can Golf Easier
I was out with the boss golfing the other day and he saw a sign that advertised the woodlands office space for rent. Of course the Woodlands is a country club in the Northwest edge of Houston's Metropolitan area, a little town too I suppose. They have a great course and we have been up there a few times. It is also pretty close to where he lives, although nothing is Houston is all that close to the rest of the city if we are honest about it. I never thought much about it, but then a few days later he told me that I was in charge of organizing the move. He had already arranged to have his stuff moved up there. For awhile it looked like the movers were going to tear his walls down to get that enormous desk out of there. By the end of the Day he was moved in and we were trying to figure out how to move. Of course it made no sense to just pack up and leave. The lease had another month and a half on it, so I started moving what I could move without disrupting operations.
Of course there are a lot of people who are extremely unhappy, because our current location is rather centrally located, or at least it is compared to this place. One of the guys lives in the Southeast part of Houston, not that far from the Gulf of Mexico and Galveston Bay. He was already commuting a pretty good distance every day and this would be an epic commute for him. It just costs him a ton of money and it forces him to get up before the break of day to get ready for a really long drive. For me it is not much difference though.Read A Little More

I know these are a little overdone, but Annik and I were kicking around some political ideas for tees - but wonder if these are overplayed. Should we throw a few through the FURY? Political Tees cool or lame? Please discuss or perhaps share ideas of what you would like to see - or if we should leave the whole political thing alone.

2thFairy307 weeks agoOh.. please no..
RequiemX307 weeks agoI would prefer not. It's a niche that's been covered elsewhere.
Olechka307 weeks agoPlease no.
matt2kool307 weeks agodo not want
Babalu307 weeks agoNO no and NO! Please No. 99 out of a hundred times, people who wear political tees are tools.
wotto307 weeks agoit's a no from me too
bluchez307 weeks agoI'm afraid that I am with the majority here as well.
Rocko307 weeks agoAgreed with the above.
artulo307 weeks ago^^
taddict307 weeks agono
a.mar.illo307 weeks agoThough it was a nice surprise seeing the Obama shirt at DBH, cause I didn�t expect that to be printed, I think that only worked so well as an exception and as a surprise, other than that I agree to the comments above. But of course I can imagine themes like environment, war, whatever, if it�s well done, so do not avoid politics, maybe just avoid politicians...
ChrisRisse307 weeks ago^ agreed
Sweetness307 weeks agoABSOLUTELY NOOOOOOO X 100.
in my opinion, doing this would take away from the individualism and uniqueness of these great artists and would put a sour taste in my mouth. one that would take a lot more than listerine to get rid of.
Arrow307 weeks agohaha, well I'm gonna be the first to disagree here, I'm in favor of it. I think you can be political without being offensive, I've seen many tasteful political designs, and for myself I like doing political designs that have a message of peace, which I don't see as being offensive but some people do no matter what the design is saying.
So, in interest of diversity which the fury seems to be all about I say take a couple shots, if it looks like noone is buying then scratch it.
the_jcw307 weeks agoeven without it being a matter of offensive to people or not...simply NO
WonderBunny307 weeks agoI think social commentary on a political topic would be fine if printed very occasionally � not more the one or two a month if even that many. I think a shirt regarding a politician would be a no for me.
I would worry about it becoming an excuse for people to bash others or the artist because they don't agree. I realize people express opinions already but you add politics into that and everything seems to get more heated.
Jessa307 weeks agoI have to go with the general consensus of "no."
autumn307 weeks agoNo thanks.
AngelinaJoliesLips307 weeks agoNooooooooo. Please.
snarkygal306 weeks agoI agree with the majority here and say no
SilkyGardens306 weeks agoI like the whole unique artistic value of teefury. Throwing political tees into the pond would just ruin it for me.
jimiyo306 weeks agoeveryone seems so against it, it seems like it would be a great idea.
i bought an Obama shirt, and i dont follow the political news whatsoever, or have a strong opinion about it, or even get shirts much at all especially big print ones. young people are wrong... big prints arent cool, theyre gaudy.
i thought it would be a good buy as a 'back when in 2008' kinda shirt. kinda like my stick man pearl jam shirt. lot more worth if its connected to an year, than some cool design that doesnt date whatsoever.
but im crazy so...
gambit07306 weeks agohah, you are crazy jimiyo! I would have to say... I don't think so. People just get so hostile about political leanings and the like that it never seems like you can get an accurate balanced message out of a single shirt without people throwing a fit. Maybe if it's more than just an Obama shirt... or McCain shirt (is their such a thing??) then it could work but I have to agree with some other people that just the face/slogan tees have been done already. Although I do think kind of a cool idea might be a shirt that somehow gets the message across to vote on it... Something with a sweet design. Just my two cents.
jimiyo306 weeks agoshiiiiiiiiiiiii, i read something about how they choose shirts to be printed at anothersite... controversy, and the amount of hate and love. and its obvious you guys would HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE some political shirts. Its on everyones agenda. The media coverage wont stop until November...
how bout
mortal kombat style Mccain vs Obama posing with their fists up.
i dont know what their special weapons would be.
if it was Street Fighter whatever, you could call on the VPees as special attacks.

The Sabres, of course, have issues as they're 0-3-1 in their last four games and it's anybody's guess what kind of effort we'll see tonight in the wake of their seven-game, 7,000-mile road trip that ended Monday in Vancouver. The New Jersey Devils, meanwhile, hit town after last night's 3-0 loss in Ottawa and are just 2-5 in their last seven as their offense as completely gone into a slumber since Patrik Elias was felled by a concussion a couple of weeks ago in Colorado.
In today's game story from the Bergen Record, we see some of the ugly New Jersey numbers: shut out three times in the last eight (one was a 1-0 shootout win) and only 11 goals in that span.
More to come from today's morning skate.

Metal Headband with Floral Detail Style P12131C01 2 2
Perfect Match I originally went into David's Bridal to find/purchase my gown. When I found the one that I really wanted, I needed to get a more realistic look and my consultant brought this headpiece to me to try on. When I tried it on it completed my whole look. It fit my head perfectly and went along with the hairstyle I was planning on wearing. The prices was great and I had to buy it with my gown. November 28, 2012
Pretty but I purchased this head band because I originally thought that I was not going to were a veil. I really liked when I saw it online. But, I have to say that once I got it home, it was way different then the picture shows. In the picture and description it shows and says silver. But when you get it home it is more like gun metal gray. It is pretty so I am going to keep it but I WISH they description was a little better about the color. July 30, 2012

TRAVERSE CITY — Busy switchboard operator Sherry White welcomes Friday — and not just because it's the end of the work week.
Friday is the day the Munson Medical Center staffer gets together with the Knitting Circle for Charity, a small group of women at the Grand Traverse Senior Center with one thing in common.
"My days are very, very hectic and it's nice to come in here and relax," said White, who sat knitting at a rectangular table overlooking Grand Traverse Bay on a recent Friday afternoon. "And it's a beautiful view."
The women began meeting in March to knit with a purpose. They make and donate chemotherapy caps, baby items and winter hats and mittens to Munson's Infusion Clinic, the Grand Traverse Baby Pantry and the Goodwill Inn. Community Mental Health soon may be added to that list.
"I'd seen these stories on TV where these girls make hundreds of quilts for charities," said group leader Diane Solem, who is employed at the center through the mature and disadvantaged worker training and employment program, Experience Works. "I quilt but I'm slow, so I thought, 'What else can we do?'"
Solem said the circle has about five to 10 regulars depending on the weather and the time of year, though others donate yarn or knit for the cause at home. Knitters can choose from one of Solem's patterns or use their own.
Each donated item bears the tag: "This item was made with love. We hope it brings you some comfort." Knitters also work on their own projects and sell others at the sales corner in the Center's lobby.
Mittens and hats donated to the Grand Traverse Baby Pantry housed at Bethlehem Lutheran Church are distributed to qualified Grand Traverse residents with children 4 or under, said pantry director Sally Hanley.
"It's really important, especially hats," Hanley said. "I've even shared them with the receptionist desk at the Government Center to give to people who come in without hats, and they do. We just don't like seeing people in the winter without hats."
Bobbie Sladek has always knit, but only for family and friends until joining the knitting circle — and only as a solitary hobby.
"I do it at home, too, but I thought it would be fun to get to know others," said Sladek, who was working on a man's gray cap. "And you run out of family to knit for."
For White and newcomer Devlin O'Brien, the circle also is a way to advance their skills by learning from others.
"I've knit for years and years, but I could only knit and purl," White said. "I couldn't read a pattern or get it from paper to my hand."
O'Brien came to her first session with a pattern, needles and nubby yarn for a baby sweater, which proved to be too complicated.
"This would be my first project. I'm just getting started," she said. "I love yarn. I walked into that yarn shop and it was a little slice of heaven."
While White comes to the circle directly from work, Marlene Evans only has to walk a few steps from the adjoining room, where she plays poker just before. She also participates in the center's mahjong, dance, lunch and "meet-and-eat" international food programs.
"That's one thing about coming here," said Evans, who has knit on and off for 65 years. "A lot of us are alone, live by ourselves. We have somewhere to go."
Like the others, White said the weekly knitting circle is a welcome retreat where the only sounds are the quiet clack of needles, idle chatter about projects and doctors or live music from the jazz band that practices next door.
"It's a time strictly for myself, to forget any other responsibilities, relax, not think about them or anybody else," she said.

The Express-Star
Chickasha will hit the road in two weeks' time in their first round regional basketball games in Class 5A West.
The No. 10 Lady Chicks head to Piedmont on Feb. 27 where they'll take on Western Heights. The Lady Jets will be familiar opponents for Chickasha, since the two teams meet in the regular season six days prior.
"We do play at Western Heights one week from today, and that is beneficial to us," head coach Christy Edelen said ahead of the Lady Chicks' Friday night game in El Reno. "Last year we were able to gain some momentum going into the playoffs and we hope to do the same this year."
Either Piedmont or Guymon await the winners of the first round game.
After El Reno, Chickasha plays No. 4 Carl Albert at home on Monday before another home game against Durant the following night. Boys' games will follow. Their last regular season game is away to Duncan on Feb. 24.
The Chickasha boys will go to Lawton to take on No. 5 Lawton-MacArthur in the first regional round. They take on either No. 6 El Reno, who they met Friday, or Noble.
The second round of regional games is on March 1. Both the Lady Chicks and Fightin' Chicks are coming off unexpected playoff runs from last season.
