Marshfield stink gets attention from stateBy Gayle Hanson
Staff Writer | May 11,2013MARSHFIELD — The state Agency of Agriculture is investigating the nature of a potent manure pile in Marshfield that has had residents reeling in the past week.
The agency was called in by town officers after the odor intensified Thursday, sending a putrid stench throughout the village.
The manure, which has since been spread, is believed to be partly composed of a high level of chicken waste, although there have been complaints that the smell is like that of a decaying animal. The manure was being stored off Route 2, about a mile from the town offices, and has caused widespread concern in the community, as residents reported being sickened by the smell.
The odor had seemed to dissipate Wednesday, but a strong breeze Thursday stirred up the stench.
"We had to close the windows the smell got so bad," said Town Clerk Bobbi Brimblecombe, whose office has received a lot of questions about the smell. "Today it's smelling more like manure and less like something died."
Because of the intensity of the smell Thursday, the Select Board decided to take action and bring the problem to the state. Previously, the town health officer had visited the site, and at one point the Select Board considered relocating the closest neighbors to the source of the smell.
"I called the commissioner of agriculture," said Select Board Chairman John Warshow. "They got right on it, and the last thing I knew they were headed over to Seth Gardner's farm to speak with him."
Gardner's organic farm in East Montpelier is the site from which the manure is believed to have originated. Multiple calls to Gardner for comment went unreturned Friday.
Chicken manure is widely held to be the most potent-smelling manure. Unlike cow manure it contains an exceptionally high level of nitrogen, which means it needs to be aged or mixed with other organic material before spreading.
According to a report on managing nitrogen on organic farms written by UVM Extension specialist Vern Grubinger, poultry manure is an excellent source of nitrogen and much more powerful than cow manure. "Poultry manure can supply roughly three to six times more nitrogen per ton than fresh cow manure," he wrote. Grubinger added that poultry manure is at its best in the first year after its application when it converts the highest level of nitrogen into a form usable by plants.
At the Marshfield Village Store, Sierra Roberts said the smell was the topic of the town.
"It was really terrible yesterday. All we've been hearing about is how bad it smells. It actually made me physically gag," she said.
At the town office, Lee Light of Hollister Hill Farm weighed in with an opinion possibly shared by many. "I think that they need to spread that fertilizer on the field," she said. "Once they get a good rain, it should dissipate."
Late Friday, Wendy Anderson, the enforcement section chief for the Agriculture Agency, said the agency hoped it would have a better understanding of what the problem is after an investigation and analysis of the substance.
"My understanding is that there has been an investigation and that the manure has been spread. Hopefully, we'll have a report on Monday," she said.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER New proposed banking regulations could make it easier to get a loan.

NOM's Summer Bus Tour is a Sham, Plain and Simple
July 27, 2010
NOM's summer bus tour is a sham, plain and simple. Less than 30 anti-equality protesters showed up on the last stop, and that includes NOM staff. One would think NOM President Brian Brown would consider the so-called Summer for Marriage tour a failure. But building a crowd isn't their intention. Today, the Human Rights Campaign challenged the National Organization for Marriage's so-called "Summer for Marriage" bus tour, saying in a release that it's nothing more than legal and rhetorical posturing in its campaign to keep its donor base secret. NOM isn't touring the country to tout "traditional marriage." What they're really trying to do is attract counter-protesters, in hopes that those counter-protesters – fair-minded people who stand up for equality – will create scenes and be disruptive. They're doing this so they can pepper ongoing lawsuits challenging public disclosure laws with made-up stories of harassment. NOM and their allies suffered a tough loss last month when they argued in front of the U.S. Supreme Court that they didn't have to follow public disclosure laws like everyone else. While rejecting NOM's request to shield petition signatures on an anti-LGBT equality measure on the Washington state ballot, the Court did allow for re-evaluation in cases of clear intimidation or harassment. That's where the Summer for Marriage tour comes in. Unable to face reality and admit defeat, NOM wants fair-minded people to harass and intimidate anti-equality protesters at these rallies so they can go back and ask a federal court if they can hide once again. As HRC Vice President for Communications & Marketing Fred Sainz said today:
"Let's add it all up: NOM and its allies are making a last-ditch legal stand in Washington and Maine that they should be specially entitled to hide their political activities, and they're saying that harassment and intimidation should provide them this cover. At the same time, Brian Brown schedules a series of virtually unattended weekday afternoon events hoping for counter-protests that they can then use as evidence of harassment and intimidation. Why else would NOM execute such half-hearted non-events and then completely subjugate its so-called 'pro-marriage' message in favor of devoting its energies almost exclusively to condemning lawful protesters?"
Shame on you, NOM.

A home-built plane hit a power line and crashed into an orchard Saturday evening.
CBS 5 News has identified the pilot as Wade Kincaid, 80, from Salome. The plane suffered significant damage but Kincaid received only minor injuries and was treated at University Medical Center in Tucson.
The Cochise County Sheriff's office says the pilot was flying the aircraft from Phoenix to Las Cruces where he was going to transfer it to a new owner.
The pilot landed the two-seat plane to refuel in San Simon, about 10 miles from the New Mexico border. Upon takeoff, the plane snagged a power line, which caused it to go down in the orchard.
According to a blurb Kincaid wrote in 2011 for Sport Aviation Online, the Dakota Hawk plane was the second plane he'd built from a kit. It first took flight in 2010.
The FAA was notified of the crash, and was allowing the Cochise County Sheriff's Office investigate, according to the CCSO official.

Customer Reviews
easy to use
This product works as advertised. I have had no problems with it.
Poor quality. Not sure if even made of brass. First time used, didn't chamber properly and got stuck, was punctured and died within 5 minutes. SG took it back and refunded cost. Looking for a better quality bore sighter.
The item arrived promptly, but one of the batteries was missing. I was able to purchase a battery locally for less than $6. Otherwise everything works to my satisfaction.
Disappointed. Your website indicated a ship date of Jan. 29. No notification of a change, but when I received the other product, the ship date on this item moved out to Feb. 7 - which does not work for me.

Venus Williams Diagnosed With Sjögren's Syndrome

Benjamin Wedro, MD, FACEP, FAAEM
Dr. Ben Wedro practices emergency medicine at Gundersen Clinic, a regional trauma center in La Crosse, Wisconsin. His background includes undergraduate and medical studies at the University of Alberta, a Family Practice internship at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario and residency training in Emergency Medicine at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center.

William C. Shiel Jr., MD, FACP, FACR
Dr. Shiel received a Bachelor of Science degree with honors from the University of Notre Dame. There he was involved in research in radiation biology and received the Huisking Scholarship. After graduating from St. Louis University School of Medicine, he completed his Internal Medicine residency and Rheumatology fellowship at the University of California, Irvine. He is board-certified in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology.
The human body seems to be under almost constant attack from the outside world, whether it is from harsh climate, from the sun's ultraviolet rays, or the bacteria and viruses that surround us. So, it seems especially unfair when the body attacks itself to cause illness. This is precisely what occurs in a group of illnesses referred to as autoimmune diseases. Autoimmune diseases can affect almost anyone, and the latest patient in the spotlight is Venus Williams, who withdrew from the U.S. Tennis Open because of Sjögren's syndrome.
"I'm really disappointed to have to withdraw from this year's U.S. Open," Williams said in a statement. "I have recently been diagnosed with Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disease which is an ongoing medical condition that affects my energy level and causes fatigue and joint pain...I enjoyed playing my first match here and wish I could continue, but right now I am unable to. I am thankful I finally have a diagnosis and am now focused on getting better and returning to the court soon." – Venus Williams in USA Today.
Imagine what happens when lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell, decide that organs in the body are alien and don't belong. They mount an attack and invade and infiltrate that organ, causing it to fail. That is autoimmune disease in a nutshell. In Sjögren's syndrome, the lymphocytes attack glands whose secretions pass through a duct directly to the outside of the body. The most common complaints are dry eyes and dry mouth, since the glands that make tears and saliva are affected. (It's important to remember that most people with dry eyes and dry mouth have it because of other, non-serious causes.) Sjögren's syndrome would less serous if those were the only issues, but the syndrome can also involve the lungs, kidney, liver, and skin. Moreover, it can rarely be associated with a form of cancer of the lymph glands called lymphoma.
There are plenty of theories as to what causes the autoimmune attack to start, and there may be an association with rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and scleroderma. The diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome is often challenging because patients often present with nonspecific complaints such as fatigue, joint ache and swelling, abdominal pain, and diarrhea (as well as the classic dry eyes and dry mouth).
It's also a tough diagnosis because there isn't total agreement as to criteria for the diagnosis. There can be abnormal blood tests, including autoantibodies (rheumatoid factor or RF, and antinuclear antibody or ANA), and tests looking for inflammation such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate or ESR. There are antibodies in the blood that can be found in many, but not all patients with the Sjögren's syndrome. These antibodies are referred to as Sjögren's syndrome antibodies A and B (also known as SSA or Ro antibody and SSB or La antibody). Biopsies of salivary glands can be done to help confirm that lymphocytes have invaded the gland. There are consensus guidelines for making the diagnosis, but mostly it comes down to the doctor having a high index of suspicion and pursuing it.
If only the eyes and mouth are involved, treatment is aimed to control symptoms, but aggressive medications may be needed if major organs like the lung, liver, and kidney are involved. Again, another concern is that patients can (though uncommonly) develop non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cancer. Most patients, however, do well and their prognosis is based on whether other autoimmune diseases like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis are also involved.
When an athlete develops an uncommon disease, the only upside is the publicity and awareness that it brings. Hopefully, Ms. Williams will continue to perform as an elite athlete and perhaps some of her fans may see in her symptoms their own situation and be able to work through it.

ARDMORE, OK-- It's been one month since an Oklahoma man went on a deadly shooting rampage in Johnston and Carter County. That suspect fired more than 10 times at two Ardmore police officers. Those officers fired back, ending the shootout. They're now being called heroes and were invited by Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin and lawmakers to be honored in Oklahoma City on the senate floor.
"This suspect was on the loose and the fear was that he was going to continue his crime spree until he was stopped," said Senator Frank Simpson as he spoke to his fellow lawmakers on the Senate Floor. "These two officers, who were off duty, came in, had a general idea of where the suspect may have been located and they took action and stopped what could have been a very terrible situation."
The ceremony isn't common. In fact, the governor signed the citation inviting the officers to the Capitol. "It was a big deal and the governor was honored to put her signature on this citation," said Senator Simpson. "I was actually humbled to recognize them for their service on the floor of the senate. Absolutely humbled, because we were in the presence of heroes. That's a humbling situation."
It was also nerve-racking for the officers. Hundreds of people were there for the ceremony.
"These two men have stood out above all of the rest and they put their lives on the line for so many others. This is a way to really just honor them and say thank you for the job that they've done," said State Representative Pat Ownbey.
Both officers said it was an emotional day.
"It was emotional," said Capt. Eric Hamblin. "I'd say my heart was racing. I was probably more nervous standing up there than I was the night the incident happened. I was nervous."
Officer Juan Galicia added, "Yeah, it was. You know, looking out and seeing all these people and being able to look ahead and see my family and my wife, and my child. Yeah, it was emotional and I was just glad they could be here to support me."
"I couldn't be more proud of these guys and the whole department in the short time I've been there," said Chief Ken Grace. "I'm very proud to be the Ardmore Police Chief."
The officers said it was an honor to be recognized and that the ceremony was something they'll never forget.
"I'm very proud of all of our department," said Capt. Hamblin. "I know sometimes we get a bad rep and we've been through some things over the last few years, but we've got a lot of really good police officers there. We're a really good department. So yeah, it was a huge sense of pride for me."
When asked about how they felt about being called heroes Officer Galicia said, "You know ultimately we were just doing our jobs that night and I wouldn't change anything. So, while it is good to hear it's a little different."
"You know, it's not everybody that would volunteer to do the work that these men do. It's not an easy job. They see society at it's worst but, yet, are able to perform at their best and it just speaks well for them and for the leadership at Ardmore P.D.," said Senator Simpson.
Capt. Eric Hamblin and Juan Galicia will be honored again Friday, February 21st, at a banquet for officers across the state of Oklahoma.

This is my Rapid Engagement Adanved Predator Rifle [R.E.A.P.R] It consists of a C3 Defense lower receiver with a DPMS parts kit and a standard A2 butt stock. The upper is a 20" Rock River Arms Predator Pursuit upper. I chose this one over the varmint upper because of the national match barrel. its a pound lighter than the varmint. It has enough weight to be rock steady yet light enough to not be a heavy rifle. its no where near as heavy as my Howa 1500 heavy varmint rig. I haven't had the chance to get out and sling some lead with it yet with gas being 4 dollars a gallon.I took the Wotac 4-14x50 off my 223 bolt gun until I have the funds to buy another scope.

very nice. I wish I had thought of that when I built mine. I have a similar upper from Bushmaster, but it is quite heavy.
Posted 07 May 2011 - 11:58 PM
Well I finally got to put some rounds through my new AR. To say this thing shoots is an under statement. I currently load the 50 grain vmax over 26 grains of N133. When fed through my new AR I was getting honest half to three quarter minute 5 shot groups. Just to see what would happen, I loaded up 4 10 round magazines and took 40 well aimed shots. time between shots was enough time to take a controlled relaxed breath. I tried to break every shot on the natural respiratory pause. I put 40 shots in a ragged hole that was about 2 inches. The usual shooter induced fliers were present, and I jerked the trigger a time or two. Replacing the stock DPMS trigger will help a lot. The critters better be very afraid. On a side note, I can't wait to try some heavier bullets just for fun. I have my eye on the 77 grain Nosler custom competition over 24.5 grains of TAC or N540.Anyway you cut it, this is going to be a fun project.

The community thinks...
The DB7 GT Variation by Ross Savage on 12/18/2003. Trim: 2003 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Coupe, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: -435 bhp @6000 rmp -410 lb.ft of torque @5000 rpm -0-60 in 4.9 seconds (I tested it myself) -6 Speed Manual Transmision -Top Speed 184 mph
Cons: Fuel Consumption City- 10 mpg Highway- 16 mpg Average- 13 mpg Small Trunk- One set of golf clubs.
Overall review: I have the GT variation and I love it. It's the best car i have ever owned and will probably be only to be the best. Very comfortable for long trips, with plenty of head room and leg room up front. The acceleration will put you in the seat. I would recomend this to anyone. Aston Martin is sadly discontinuing the DB7 series in favor of the DB9. If your interested act now.

Pacmba Chomps Down
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Household, Mods / Hacks, Video Games, Videos, Wireless / WiFi
What do you get when you cross a Roomba with Pac-man? In Ron Tajima's case, you get a Pacmba (don't ask us how to pronounce it.) He took his droid vacuum, tacked on a board with 448 LEDs, and added a Bluetooth remote with circuit driver. Of course, he had to have something for the little guy to chomp on. This is Ron's second foray into hacking his Roomba. We cannot wait to see what he will come up with next.

WOW, that was amazing :D
Parallax.com also has something similar, but this one is amazing!
However, you could buy this stuff (Leds, Board) from Parrallax.com.
Wow that was pretty ####### cool right there.Damn ghosts, so used to hearing that noise in pacman but its an addictive game so I always come back for more. anyways nice modification and i one day hope i can make something like that.
Probably the most clever idea ever made!
I used to play Pacman.Nice to hear about the modification or upgradation.
hahha, awesome. I'd be cool if there are other roombas as the ghosts…. and the pacmba have to hit them with it's bumper to diable the ghosts.
Now he needs to make a Ms. Packman mod. When they were done cleaning, they could go off in the dark together and .....eat bonus fruit….what were you thinking? Not!
I dropped many quarters playing those games. Fun times, long ago.
Wow this guy is so creative! I honestly would not have thought about turning a roomba into a pacman but it is really entertaining to watch!
This is very cool. I'll bet it would scare the crap out of the family pet. Wish I knew more about electronics to try this myself.
I've seen a lot of roomba's that have been hacked, they're very customizeable! For robot freaks it's a must have device. It would have been interesting if Ron actually used more Roomba's, made a maze, and actually simulated the whole pacman game. That would take a lot more effort though, but it would definitely bring a lot more views to his video.
thats hilarious! it kida reminds me of the types of things i do to the electronics in my house =D
except half the time they just break

Hillary Clinton has managed to "step in it" by criticizing the White House's handling of Iraq and Syria, a mistake that will take some work to correct ahead of Clinton's appearance Wednesday evening with President Obama, according to CNN's Gloria Borger.

Gideon Hackett, 19, said a ride on the Swamp Rabbit Trail on August 1 could have easily been his last.
Hackett said he rides the trail often on his bike, because it's convenient to his home, work and downtown Greenville, where he spends time with friends. On this particular trip Hackett said a group of at least a dozen men attacked him as he exited the trail near Falls Park on Furman College Way.
Hackett said the attack began shortly after 10 p.m. when someone punched him in the eye and threw him off of his bike. Hackett said others joined in and began kicking him. One of the men also pointed a gun at Hackett and, according to the teen, tried shooting him but the gun misfired.
Hackett said the men taunted him throughout the attack and laughed as they walked away with his bike and other belongings. Hackett said he suffered a black eye and bruising on his ribs as a result of the attack.
Hackett said he decided to go public with his story to warn others about the potential dangers of riding on the trail that he said has poor lighting and a lack of surveillance cameras.
Greenville police told FOX Carolina that adding lighting and cameras on the nearly five miles of trail that run through the city would be impossible.
Officers did say patrols of the trail had been stepped up as a result of the attack on Hackett. Police are asking anyone with information on the attack to call Crime Stoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
Hackett said despite the attack he plans on continuing to ride on the trail.

This picture started out as one of many thumbnails I made for a scene of a mech pilot in the pilot's seat. Anyway, I just got through blocking in colors, I wanted to get a feel for something both modern and futuristic (hence the jacket and the metallic armor covering his chest and legs), but I'm so unexperienced with painting things in color that I'm stuck now.
Any help or tips you could offer me would be very welcome.

I would forget about color for the time being and move back to composition. Would you mind posting that series of thumbnails?
I'd reiterate what Grunler said, forget about colour for now, focus on getting the values in greyscale right. There's also glaring issues with perspective (It's one thing I have a stickler for) - for one, there's no obvious horizon line, and therefore there's no way for the viewer to relate as to where to place the other mech and the mech being viewed from inside the cockpit in relation to the horizon.
As far as designing goes, that should be the least of your worries for now, as usually most people have trouble designing and painting at the same time simultaneously on the fly, in value, colour, perspective, etc, all at once. But as always, mileage and practice.
For value practice, I can suggest this:
Or if you want a more indepth one, this:
(The latter one I can never get into O_o - I mean fuuuuck, just look at the page, it might as well be the fucking Voynich manuscript for me!)
"Never regret thy fall from grace, O' spirit of Icarian flight, for the greatest tragedy of them all to face, is to never feel the burning bright"
Believe my lies, for I tell the truth about them. Or would you rather me lie about telling the truth?

I like the idea, but the perspective is ALL off! To make the scene more engaging, let the machine follow the same perspective the pilot has (sort of leaned towards the left, as of now it's looking straight forward). Redraw the whole drawing again but focus only on the perspective! Once you have a perspective and composition that works you can go ahead and work on the details (colors, designs, etc..)
Composition notwithstanding, you haven't thought the light environment out at all, and your perspective is completely off kilter.
Back to the drawing board before you waste even more time on coloring an unworkable sketch.
Hey everybody, thanks for all the replies, I took your advice and completely redrew the image, touched up a lot of areas, most notably the cockpit and its design. I added a very crummy beginning of a background in a cramped city street. Before I move on to gray-scaling the image, I wanted to know if there were any more issues with the picture (not counting how unimaginatively dull the background is currently)
How big are those mechas? From the perspective of the street, it would seem they are rather small - or the buildings immense. A 20-m robot would have a very high vantage point, wouldn't you agree? Also, watch the distance between the mechas; I am not sure it feels right. And you're still botching perspective. Perhaps a formal perspective plot is in order.
Composition issues still remain. You've crammed the enemy robot awkwardly into the left side of the picture.
arenhaus, thanks for pointing out some of the issues, I'm still working on the perspective a bit (I went to bed right after I posted that update), and I'm going to be dropping the horizon line a tad (it's where the smoke cloud is) to increase the feeling of height.
The mechs' sizes are supposed to be between 25-30 feet high, so I'm not going to make them absolutely immense, but I still need to do a few things with the environment, I'll probably shirk that secondary mech over to the right side of the screen and shrink up the street just a bit.
If you want to keep going on this picture, I suggest blotting out all the small details (remove them) and use the line tool to make a wireframe (chess-pattern) over all the big surfaces, including the glass in the cockpit. This should help with the perspective.
Have a nice. Sneak.
Is the robot to the left an enemy or an ally? If he's an enemy, he should be dead-on on the target-thingy on the screen. Your perspective is still off though. The machine still seems to be looking straight ahead, whereas it should be looking more towards the left (makes a much more dynamic composition). I'd also make the buildings smaller as arenhaus noted, they look human-size as of now. The perspective on the robot to the left is also off.
Here's an update on the image after working with a better perspective grid than the one I made earlier. Tweaked some aspects of the cockpit to better line up with other sections, and I grabbed a handful of reference photos of elevated shots in city streets and I just worked from there in making a more "fleshed out" background with more of a scene going on. Oh, and I took out the secondary mech entirely in order to make our pilot's vehicle seem like a fire support unit brought in when it was needed most (the guy near the pile off to the left is calling out directions).
So I've decided to grayscale the image for lighting and shading now, I'll probably post an update of that when I can.
Better. Try to lower the cockpit angle a bit and reposition the pilot's head to bring the pilot's attention at the wreck. Maybe redesign the cockpit with more glass below, so the dashboard does not obscure so much of the street. And rework the poses of the figures around the wreck - they are standing there too casually and disinterestedly. Give them something urgent to do.
Don't be too hasty to add shading. Work everything out on line drawing first. It's cheaper. (As a matter of fact, why are you doing it digitally? Sketching on paper is much faster.)
You'll need to devise some clear hints that the cockpit is a fire support unit.
well i think this is looking rather good, and i agree with arenhaus about reorganising the street.
it never hurts to have some kick ass work to show you how other people have treated the same genre and give you confidence..

Much better! Keep it up
'Nother update, this is the nitpicking point where I went in, found several smaller details that I didn't like, and changed them.
I rearranged the pilot's head to look more straightforward instead of having that slight dip, messed with the background and the posing of the infantry, did some small cockpit work and just generally did a last little look-over.
I'm definitely moving into grayscaling now, any issues from here on, I'll fix in that form.
I think you should angle it a bit to add to the action. Velocity gave good examples. When blocking in values notice how much darker the cockpit is than the bg in all of those images.
Blankslate, that looks awesome! That was a perfect suggestion, thank you!
thats a good suggestion, i think you could push the dark interior bright outside ever more if you wanted.
also the pilot might not be able to see out at the action so i put a little screen for him to follow whats happening down to that side of his mech where his buddies are.. see what you reckon, as always just my 2c.

Wow, thanks for all of the suggestions guys! I'm sorry that I haven't responded for a while, but finals week is hell.
This is about all that I've been able to get done during the whole event sadly, but I will have the grayscaling done within the next couple of days, assuming that my schedule doesn't get messed up again.

In the final eight minutes of play, Ridgway used the foul line to their advantage as they converted 10 of 15 foul shots to help secure the victory. The Elkers were 17 of 26 from the sin strip for the game while Elk Catholic was nine of 13.
CLARION – Knowing the PIAA playoff scenarios ahead of time, Johnsonburg knew a victory Saturday meant a rematch with No. 1 ranked Lincoln Park.
The Rams wanted that challenge.
Johnsonburg defeated Clarion-Limestone 57-54 Saturday afternoon at Tippin Gym on Clarion University in the District 9 Boys Class A consolation game.
The Ridgway varsity girls basketball team was honored with a banquet Friday night at Francis S. Grandinetti Elementary School.

CLARION — The Elk County Catholic Crusader basketball team advanced to the District 9 Class A championship game by defeating the Johnsonburg Rams by a 66-47 score Wednesday night at Clarion University.
The Crusaders were able to take advantage of a poor shooting night by the Rams. Johnsonburg was 15 of 53 from the field for 28 percent while Elk Catholic was 20 of 38 for 61 percent. Elk Catholic was seven of 17 from behind the three-point arc while the Rams wee three of 29.
CLARION – Former St. Marys Area wrestling coach Wayne Fordoski was one of seven individuals inducted into the District 9 Wrestling Hall of Fame on Saturday night, during a ceremony held prior to the AA and AAA finals at the District 4/9 Wrestling Championships at Clarion University.

CLARION – Ridgway wrestling will send three wrestlers to the Northwest Regional Championships after the conclusion of the District 9 Individual Wrestling Championships Saturday night at Tippin Gym on the campus of Clarion University.
Drew Baumgratz (120), Dalton Sheasley (170) and Sam Delhunty (182) qualified for the Elkers.
ST. MARYS – The Elkers (18-6) exacted a measure of revenge and then some with a dominating 47-21 victory Friday night against the Cameron County Red Raiders (20-3) in the District 9 Class A quarterfinal held at St. Marys Area High School.
KANE – Early on, a Johnsonburg win seemed like it would be a slam dunk.
After Cameron Grumley's third dunk of the night, it was for Johnsonburg.
Grumley finished with a game-high 27 points and had three one-handed jams as Johnsonburg won 79-47 over Coudersport Friday night at Kane High School in the District 9 Class A boys basketball quarterfinal.

Unless I need picc or flugel, this is the only horn I need for everything from pop gigs to quintet to parades to, well, everything. As an Army musician I need to be ready for anything and this horn is. The horn is very well made,slots beautifully, and allows me total control in any register at. Any dynamic level. Playing Sousa marches ppp during a ceremony is not easy but this horn makes it possible. It also makes it possible to cover the whole band with a soloeven in a cavernous bar and with a dead microphone. Love this horn.

How To: Set Up a Bar for a Party
One way to feel more like a guest at your own party is to leave (some of) the bartending duties to the guests themselves.
It's nice to get each arriving guest their first cocktail or refreshment, show them where to find the food, make an introduction or two and then turn them loose on a self-serve bar for subsequent drinks.
Here is a quick how-to on setting up a well stocked self-serve bar:
Out of the main "flow" of the party. People will go out of their way to get to the bar, and some will tend to gather there, so there is no need to make it super central or it can clog up the energy and flow of the party space. The kitchen is a natural spot to set it up, providing there is enough room. If not, a table off to the side or in the corner of the main party room, pushed up against a wall (for stability) will work best.
The Liquids?
A Basic List:
Scotch, Vodka, Gin, Tequila, and Rum
Wine, Red and White
Club soda, cola, diet cola, tonic, lemon-lime, ginger ale
Orange and cranberry juice
Good Extras:
Champagne, Pernod, Brandy, Pimms, Clamato
How much?
Here is a handy drink calculator. You can input duration, number of guests, and types of drinks to get an estimate. This one also lets you set an average price for types of drinks.
The stuff?
Glassware or cups
Cocktail Napkins
A tea towel or two for spills
Jigger (measuring glass)
Fruit - (cut up the lemons and limes ahead of time)
Lots of Ice
A small trash container under or next to the bar table.
The Layout?
Glasses to one side on the main surface.
Napkins, ice bucket, tongs, garnishes, measuring glass and shaker in the front row.
Sodas, juice and mixers in the middle row.
Liquor and wine bottles at the back.
Beer in a cooler or bucket/container with ice beside or below the bar.

This is an excellent overview. I was a little amused by the change in drinking habits -- in my parents' heyday the table would have included Bourbon as well as Scotch but not tequila and probably not rum. When my friends were all drinking (there's a lot less of that going on than there used to be) it would have been mostly wine, with Scotch and Irish whiskeys, perhaps Bourbon (I'm in Washington so there's always a crowd of Virginians), Campari rather than Pernod, and absolutely no blue cocktails at all. If you can get it, I would add bitter lemon.
Thanks for the tip, I was clueless but now I've seen the light.
I've been reading these party posts and wondering exactly who people are inviting to their parties - if I have a party I invite my friends - they have been to my house before, know where everything is and feel at home there - I don't need to show them where the food is or make introductions
What kind of guests are people inviting that haven't been to their house before? (ignoring a house-warming party in a new place of course)
Violetsrose...you assume all parties that one hosts are for one's friends. However, there are many instances when you have strangers to your home for a get-together i.e. a spouse's work associates, your work associates, friends of friends, and so on.
