The public will have two chances next week to comment on a draft management plan to commemorate black history in the City of Buffalo.
The Common Council will hold hearings at noon and 6 p.m. next Tuesday in City Hall before considering whether to approve the plan from the Michigan Street African-American Heritage Corridor Commission. That group's members already have had their say, Commission Chairwoman Karen Stanley Fleming said during a meeting Monday.
The proposed corridor starts at East Ferry Street and Masten Avenue and continues south to Woodlawn Avenue, then to Michigan Avenue, and ends at Swan Street, with several offshoots along the way. Those include Pine, Sycamore, Elm, William, Hickory and South Division streets.
The plan aims to highlight the significance of the corridor in American history, including the abolitionist movement, the early civil rights Niagara Movement and the cultural arts as well as in early business development and land acquisition.
Other goals are to develop the zone as a destination for residents, scholars and tourists and to facilitate the growth of jobs, housing, small businesses, tourism, restaurants and retail services.
Also during Monday's board meeting, Stanley Fleming announced a fundraising program with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo.
The fundraiser is tied to a March 8 concert featuring opera singer Kathleen Battle in Kleinhans Music Hall.
"It is a program of spirituals tied to the Underground Railroad," said Robin Parkinson, BPO's director of education.
The orchestra will donate to the commission $2 from every concert ticket sold. The Community Foundation will match the donation for a total contribution of $4 from each ticket.
"Commissioners will decide what projects will be supported by the donations," said Jean McKeown, senior program officer for the Community Foundation.
The commission has partnered with the foundation to get Gates 3 and 4 of the Buffalo Zoo listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Monday, commissioners voted to accept $8,500 from the Community Foundation to fund research and professional services to complete the application for the register.
Although the zoo itself is listed already on the National Register, commissioners want to highlight the gates that were designed by African-American architect John Brent. He also designed the Michigan Street "Colored" YMCA. The zoo is part of the commission's Thematic Heritage Area outside the proposed corridor.

BUSTED: Veteran actor ("The Larry Sanders Show") Rip Torn, 72, was arrested on drunken-driving charges after rear-ending a taxi in Greenwich Village early Tuesday morning, police tell New York's Daily News. Witnesses tell the paper that Torn was handcuffed and refused to take a breath test. His car, a 1990 Volvo, was reportedly seized. There has been no comment from the Torn camp.
QUOTED: "If Les Moonves was (sic) a contestant ... he would have been fired by the third episode." -- Real-estate developer and newly minted TV star Donald Trump, 57, on how the head of CBS would fare on his new NBC show, "The Apprentice"
HIRED: CNBC has signed former tennis champion-turned-TV analyst John McEnroe, 44, for a nightly 10 p.m. talk show to begin in the spring, in the hopes of using his outspoken and acerbic personality to give the network visibility at night, says the Hollywood Reporter. Network executives described McEnroe's new show as "an unpredictable and spontaneous" look at the top stories of the day. Says McEnroe: "CNBC is trying to do something different."
BOUGHT: "Today" show news anchor Ann Curry, 47, and her husband, software developer Brian Wilson, have purchased a $2.9 million townhouse on a tree-lined block of Manhattan's Upper West Side, reports the New York Observer. The 6,000-sq.-ft. residence will require extensive renovations before the couple and their two children can move in, says the paper, adding that the brownstone (and its garden) dates back to 1894. The Wilsons' neighbors will include Jerry Seinfeld and his family and Rosie O'Donnell and hers.
SUED: Hip-hop mogul Damon Dash, 32, is being sued for $15 million by a former model who claims he raped her at a party in Brazil on New Year's Day 2003, the New York Post reports. In her civil suit, Kirstie Thompson, 32, alleges that Dash attacked her. Dash's spokeswoman Amanda Silverman called the allegations "ludicrous."
DIED: Norwegian billionaire Arne Naess, 66, the former husband of Diana Ross, has fallen to his death while mountaineering in South Africa, reports the BBC. Naess apparently died as he tried to climb down a cliff after turning back due to thick mist. Naess, who was married to Ross for 13 years (they had two children together before divorcing in 2000), was an experienced climber and had climbed Mount Everest in 1985.
CREDITED: She may have won the National Board of Review's award as breakthrough actress (for her role as a killer in "Monster") but at the awards dinner in New York this week, an obviously nervous Charlize Theron threw the spotlight on another actress, reports PEOPLE. After reading a list of thank-yous to people involved in her film, Theron, 28, ended her acceptance speech on a spontaneous note: "I've never done this before, but I don't know if I'll ever get the chance. There's a woman here tonight who's been extremely inspirational to me as an actress: Frances McDormand. Thank you for showing us women that it's okay to have balls. You are so incredible and when I grow up I want to be you."
REVIVED: The 1960s cartoon icon Astro Boy, a retro Japanese robot, will take to the airwaves anew on the WB network starting this Saturday morning, reports the Wall Street Journal. (The WB, like PEOPLE, is part of Time Warner.) The spiky-haired superhero, who in 1963 -- and in black and white -- was the first Japanese show imported to the U.S., has long battled for peace between humankind and machines, notes the Journal. A colorized -- and kitschy -- version of the original series surfaced in the '80s, only to die a quiet death. Now he's back with fresh adventures. Go, Astro Boy, go.

SL TV: Batting Against The Odds - Sean Godfrey
By Luke Martin | Ball State Sports Link
Finding one's passion in life can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Everyone goes through trials and experiences to really find out what to do with our life. This is especially true in middle school and high school.
For Sean Godfrey, he knew what he wanted to do way before he ever stepped on a diamond.
"I remember one day practicing with my hitting coach in middle school," Godfrey said. "There was a day he told me if there is something you find that you are good at, you can make money at it and make a career out of it, that is something you should really work hard at."
Growing up in New Albany, Indiana, just six miles from Louisville, Godfrey was poised to earn a scholarship to play for his hometown Louisville Cardinals.
Unfortunately for Godfrey, Louisville never called. No one else called either.
"I had zero scholarships offers," Godfrey said. "I was not really looked at highly out of high school."
Back-to-back Indiana baseball sectional titles, 70-plus career wins and being named his area's baseball player of the year didn't earn him one offer?
"I talked to a few coaches and they told me I wasn't big enough or filled out enough. Hearing that was tough because I thought I was good enough to play at the next level."
Godfrey took a preferred walk on spot at Ball State, the university where his mother, Jane, went to school.
"Everything seemed right about it," Godfrey said. "I really wanted to have the opportunity to play at the Division I level."
After being used to a winning environment in high school, Godfrey was now entering a period he never experienced.
"We had a first-year head coach my freshman year and we started 2-17," Godfrey said. "No doubt thoughts about transferring were on my mind, thinking the grass is greener on the other side."
The Cardinals were a combined 29-71 through his first two seasons. He was receiving little-to-no scholarship money, since earning a preferred walk-on position. He doubted his future.
"I didn't want to give up on my passion of playing division one baseball," Godfrey said. "From that point on, I wanted to prove to myself I could make it and survive."
After spending nearly a full decade away from Muncie, Rich Maloney returned to Ball State as its head coach for a second time in 2013. Maloney understood what he was walking into.
"I knew where the program was and the struggles they were having," Maloney said. "In Sean's case, he needed to see he could produce more than he did up to that point."
Godfrey's impact has been felt by game changing hits, home run-saving catches and leading the Cardinals in contention for a 2014 Mid-American Conference Championship.
While baseball may be Godfrey's passion, there is much more to the man than simply the game. He's a barber. He's a musician. He's a student.
"Sean has so many characteristics that mold the team together," redshirt senior pitcher Jacob Brewer said. "As quiet as he is, he loves doing things no one else will think about."
Even with having the majority of the players allowing Godfrey to spice up their hairstyle, Brewer thinks otherwise.
"As much as I trust Sean as a person, I am not letting him touch my hair," Brewer said with a laugh.
From receiving zero scholarship offers to becoming one of the premier talents in the MAC, Godfrey's love and passion for baseball has never tarnished.
"The reason why I play the game is a battle against myself," Godfrey said. "The last couple years I have really gotten closer to my teammates and making those relationships are something I will never forget for the rest of my life."
In June, Major League Baseball will hold its annual draft. Godfrey is hoping to receive a call that he has made it to the next level.
"I would love to have the shot to play professionally," Godfrey said. "It has been my dream ever since I was a little kid. If not, life has its ways of opening up doors for you."
Will the call come? Godfrey knows if it doesn't, the last time life worked out just fine.

Hachi: A Heart-Warming Tale Inspired by a True Story
For those of you who love animal stories, this DVD from our collection is a must see! Hachi, starring Richard Gere, Joan Allen, and Sarah Roemer, chronicles the life of an extraordinary dog named Hachiko. No one really knows where Hachi came from, but the small Akita puppy shows up at a train station one evening as Professor Parker Wilson (played by Gere) comes home from work. Though the professor's efforts to find Hachi a new home prove in vain, his wife and daughter watch the bond between man and dog grow and agree that Hachi should stay. As he grows, Hachi becomes so attached to his master that he walks him to the train station each morning and awaits his return there each afternoon.
One day, however, tragedy strikes and the professor does not return home on the train. Though the professor's family tries to explain to Hachi that the professor won't ever be coming home, Hachi continues to wait for his master's return at the station each day--for nine years! This truly inspiring story is family-friendly and shows the beauty of a dog's loyal and undying devotion for his master. If you are particularly tender-hearted, make sure to keep a box of tissues handy, as this movie may tug on your heartstrings!
This title is located in our Juvenile Collection on the first floor of the library. A trailer is available to watch at the Internet Movie Database website.

How about a hot dog and a side of history?
That's exactly what a group of Alston Middle School students and their families had for dinner recently.
The occasion was an informal recital by AMS History Teacher Pren Woods' students at popular local eatery Perfectly Franks. The idea, said Woods, is to not only reward students for their hard work in his classes but also to give them a forum to show off their knowledge in a unique way.
"We wanted to have a special night, in a place that's family friendly," Woods said. "Perfectly Frank's seemed like the perfect fit and they graciously agreed to help us. It's a great partnership."
The idea is fairly simple: the children and their families come to the restaurant and enjoy a meal at a special price, then the children perform songs, dance routines, and other such methods of expression to showcase the material they have learned. In this case, the unit they had studied was ancient Egypt, Woods said. Except for a traditional spiritual song, "Wade in the Water," which the children performed at the beginning of the evening, all the songs were arranged and choreographed by the students, Woods said.
"What's cool about these performances is that I usually do all the choreography and lyrics," Woods noted. "These students created their own music videos."
Parents of the students seemed very pleased with the evening and with Woods' approach to teaching.
"He is very unique in that he really tries to appeal to all learning styles for children," Julialove Johnson said. Her daughter, Junelle, is in one of Woods' classes and performed that evening. "I have been very impressed with him – and it's not easy to impress me."
Perfectly Frank's owner Perry Cuda said he is glad to help out; in fact, one of his children is a student in one of Woods' classes.
"I think it's great – he (Woods) really reaches those kids," Cuda said. "We're happy we can help."
Woods and his students have performed twice at Perfectly Frank's and plan to do more, he said.
"We'll be back," he said.

A Madison County man enters plea in child pornography case
James Hanna, 66, of Japton, pleaded guilty today to producing child pornography. Hanna lives in an apartment connected to his store Japton Grocery and Farm Supply.
Hanna admitted to producing sexually explicit photos of two 13-year-old girls.
According to court records in August of last year, a concerned parent contacted the Madison County Sheriff's Office with information that Hanna had sexually assaulted two girls.
The sheriff's office interviewed the victims and discovered that Hanna had been taking sexually explicit photos of them at his home. Officers executed a search at his home and found several computers, digital cameras and files containing pornographic images.

What to avoid
- Overtreatment. Talk with your doctor if you find yourself using over-the-counter pain relievers regularly.
- Undertreatment. Don't try to ignore severe and prolonged arthritis pain. It may mean you have joint inflammation or damage requiring daily medication.
- Focusing only on pain. Depression is more common in people with arthritis. Doctors have found that treating depression with antidepressants and other therapies reduces not only depression symptoms but also arthritis pain.
Physical and emotional integration
It's no surprise that arthritis pain has a negative effect on your mood. If everyday activities make you hurt, you're bound to feel discouraged. But when these normal feelings escalate to create a constant refrain of fearful, hopeless thoughts, your pain can actually get worse and harder to manage.

Upper Dorchester County to Serve as Pilot Community in SC Great Outdoors Program
Sen. John W. Matthews Jr., Rep. Patsy G. Knight, and Rep. Joseph Jefferson presented a check on July 12 to Dorchester County District I Councilman Willie Davis, containing the local match requirement to participate as a Pilot Community in SC National Heritage Corridor's new initiative, SC Great Outdoors.
Through funding from the Upper Dorchester County Economic Development Fund, this initiative will leverage Upper Dorchester County's outdoor recreational assets as catalysts for economic development. Partners in tourism marketing and economic development, Michelle McCollum, President and CEO of the SC National Heritage Corridor; Mayor Charles Ackerman, Town of Harleyville; Mayor Anne Johnston, Mayor of St. George; Rita C. Berry, President and CEO of the Greater Summerville/Dorchester County Chamber of Commerce; Nancyjean D. Nettles, Director of Development for the Francis Beidler Forest; and Jon Baggett, Dorchester County Economic Development Director were also present.
With the tagline, "get a little dirty", the purpose of the SC Great Outdoors Initiative is to market South Carolina's "undiscovered" outdoor recreational assets – those that are located off the beaten path. Through public, private, and civic partnerships, the SC Great Outdoors Initiative aims to promote SC's natural resources, create sustainable economic development opportunities, improve quality of life, and inspire stewardship in visitors and residents alike.
Upper Dorchester County's rich natural, historical, and cultural resources, proximity to Interstates 26 and 95, as well as its position within both the BCD Region and the SC National Heritage Corridor are advantageous toward tourism and economic development. Given the rural nature of this portion of the County, visitor traffic is critical to local business health. However, traditionally, tourism marketing and product development has focused on historical and cultural assets, with little attention paid to the rich natural and scenic resources of Upper Dorchester County. To leverage these resources, this project aims to distinguish Upper Dorchester County as an outdoor recreation destination.
"Upper Dorchester County is very fortunate to have many outdoor treasures, such as the Francis Beidler Forest, as well as other undiscovered gems…this project will allow us to take advantage of these untapped tourism opportunities to support local businesses and grow the economy," said Dorchester County Councilman Willie Davis.
"When I first heard about this program, I was very excited to think about the doors that this initiative would open for Upper Dorchester County. The western part of the County has a number of outdoor recreation opportunities that make Dorchester County an ideal candidate for this program and will enhance the tourism industry. I would also like to thank the SC National Heritage Corridor for their partnership and support to make our efforts possible," said Sen. Matthews.
"We are fortunate to have been selected to act as a Pilot Community in the SC National Heritage Corridor's new initiative, SC Great Outdoors," said Rep. Knight. "When I was contacted by Economic Development about this opportunity, Senator Matthews, Representative Jefferson, and I saw the potential for a vibrant tourism industry and jumped at the chance to help make this a reality."
Rep. Jefferson said the initiative is proof positive that Dorchester County is forward-thinking.
"The County's success is not only measured by its dedicated leaders, but through an abundance of natural resources and available assets. Natural resources like Francis Beidler Forest have enabled the County to expand upon such programs as the SC Great Outdoors Initiative. The Legislative Delegation for Upper Dorchester County is pleased to support this program," he said.
Through a 60/40 cost-sharing approach, the SCNHC will equip Upper Dorchester County, the portion of the County West of Four Holes Swamp, with the resources to effectively market its outdoor recreational assets. As part of this initiative, SCNHC will develop detailed outdoor recreation asset assessments and a strategic tourism marketing and branding plan, offer tourism hospitality training to area service providers, and devise performance metrics for continued monitoring. In addition, acting as one of only three Pilot Communities will give Upper Dorchester County distinct exposure and recognition.
"We are excited to work with Dorchester County, which will act as one of three pilot communities in the State to launch this new initiative," said Michelle McCollum. "Because of its uniqueness, the Francis Beidler Forest and the Edisto River are two of five key natural treasures selected across South Carolina to provide the foundation for this statewide initiative."
Dorchester County is excited to commence this project and appreciates the continued support of the Legislative Delegation, the SC National Heritage Corridor, and its partners in tourism and economic development.
Dorchester County Economic Development is the organization responsible for growing and retaining business in the County. Its mission is to work to create and support an environment that welcomes business, and helps companies to grow and succeed over the long-term. This ultimately will increase the standard of living for all of Dorchester County's citizens by providing more job opportunities with higher skills and better wages.

According to both U.S. regulations and the ICH Good Clinical Practice: Consolidated Guideline, Clinical Investigators are required to conduct a clinical trial in compliance with the investigational plan/protocol. Protocol deviations should not be implemented without sponsor agreement and the prior approval/favorable opinion from the IRB/IEC, except when necessary to eliminate an immediate safety issue for research subjects. However, unapproved protocol deviations occur in every study and at every site.
There is a growing recognition within the industry as to the importance of appropriately managing protocol deviations. This web seminar provides tips and strategies to help participants anticipate, manage, and minimize the impact of protocol deviations. Investigators and Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) will learn how to appropriately document and report protocol deviations, with a focus on preventing recurrence. Internal study team members will learn how to implement a structured approach to managing significant deviations that impact subject safety and/or data integrity.
This course will be taught by one of the following instructors:

I like the idea of a woodsy wedding with a bit of 1970s influence. In my mind, the 70s were all about earth tones, natural fiber like cotton and knits like crochet, and a bohemian, folksy vibe – perfectly suited for a laid-back outdoor wedding. (Of course, the 70s also involved lots of polyester and disco – but I like to reject that reality and substitute my own).
I guess these dresses and accessories are my version of 1970s style – chic, cool, and casual. They seem perfectly suited for a bride with her hair down, maybe wearing a crown of fresh flowers, on a warm summer day in the grass. I'm really digging the short long-sleeve vintage dress from Etsy and the crochet Toms. What's your favorite?
1. Greenbow lace gown from BHLDN / 2. short lace dress by bridalblissdesigns / 3. bohemian lace dress by Grace Loves Lace / 4. Espirit de Corps lace gown from BHLDN / 5. flower crown by Mignonne Handmade / 6. crochet maxi dress by Free People / 7. linen and lace dress by Free People / 8. vintage 70s dress from Daughters of Simone / 9. ombre chevron invitation by Blush Printables / 10. crochet shoes by Toms / 11. 70s inspired bouquet via The Wedding Chicks via Pinterest / 12. floral headpiece by Head Case by G

SALEM — About 15 city residents had to be evacuated from their homes in the 1300 block of South Lincoln Avenue Tuesday morning after a city utility crew dug through a gas line, causing a gas leak....

5 Astronauts More Badass Than Any Action Movie Hero
#2. Catching a Satellite by Hand
The ability to grasp tools is a definitive advantage, and we've taken it all the way from sticks to ... communications satellites? Catching a satellite with your hands is what happens when Superman plays spaceball; it's not meant to be something that happens in the real world. But no one told the crew of the Space Shuttle Endeavour that when they went for an orbital triple play to capture a rogue Intelsat VI satellite. The Endeavour wasn't actually designed to capture satellites, but when you're already taking human bodies into space, achieving things you weren't ever designed to do is an awesome given.
USSR government
For example: Alexei Leonov, the first man to put on a nice suit and STEP INTO SPACE.
Pierre Thuot, Richard Hieb, and Thomas Akers of mission STS-49 outdid every space combat movie ever made. Even the swashbuckling Star Wars gang never said "Let's just get out there and GRAB stuff," and that was a movie with Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Chewbacca.
Technically he's a heavenly bear.
The Johnson Space Center designed a mission-specific capture bar, which turned out to be the most expensive version of that annoying claw-grabbing game ever invented. Despite multiple spacewalks, the bar refused to grab hold, so the crew maneuvered to within about a meter of four tons of orbital velocity metal, got outside, and mastered an off-world communications hub with nothing but their opposable thumbs. Because even during the depressing years of working as the world's most glorified TV repair staff, astronauts still deserved every single bit of that glory.
The most badass game of "catch" ever.
So if V'Ger ever does come back, threatening to destroy the planet, we won't need the Starship Enterprise; we already have astronauts trained and ready to Greco-Roman wrestle it.
#1. Valeri Polyakov Is King of Space
Valeri Polyakov has spent longer being awesome in space than most people have spent being awesome on the ground. Polyakov was a doctor-cosmonaut, specializing in astronautic medicine, when he wanted to find out what happens to the human body in space. When you look up "humans staying in space long enough to reach Mars" in the dictionary, you won't find it, because that's not a single word, but when you look it up in scientific journals, it says "Valeri Polyakov." He's the one-man test case for shipping people to other planets.
"Aw, you guys and your gravity are so cute."
He spent 240 days on the Mir space station for the Soviet Union in 1988, then another 437 days for Russia in 1994, because his space adventures transcend petty things like "Earth politics" (which must have looked particularly petty from where he could see them). Sealing someone in a tin can for over a year sounds like a recipe for a psychological horror movie, and has been, several times, but Polyakov wanted to prove that the human mind could take it. Extended stays in space can also cause loss in muscle mass and bone density, but a specialized workout program meant that Polyakov Rocky-ed his way through it.
After a year in space, returning to full gravity must have felt like the Earth was on him, instead of the other way around, but Valeri insisted on walking from the capsule to the chair provided just to show how much the human body could take. His first actions on the ground were to tell people that, when humanity really wants to, it can be the most awesome thing in existence.
Reuters via Washington Post
Cheers, hero.
NASA astronaut Norman Thagard reported that Polyakov looked "like he could wrestle a bear," which is both a compliment and a kickass truth about Russian space training. Wrestling grizzlies in space? If the next Die Hard has to be Russian, that should be the plot.
Polyakov is likely to hold the record for longest stay in space until someone actually takes him up on his dare to fly to the red planet. The astronomical unit is the distance from the Earth to the sun, and he flew two of them just to prove a point. He traveled 300 million kilometers in a tin can to challenge the entire human race to get moving again.
Luke looks at more badass achievements with The Craziest Consensual Sex Criminals, and goes where no internet has gone before by actually reading before clicking "I agree" in the Terms of Service experiment. Check him out at his website and Tumblr, or on Twitter, where he responds to every single tweet.

Adam BombPhoto by WWE
By Kevin Hunsperger
@kevinhunsperger & @my123cents
The mid 90's was filled with all kinds of over the top gimmick wrestling. That was especially the case in the WWF. I've written about many of those characters in past Boo Blogs, but today I'm focusing on Adam Bomb.
He was played by Bryan Clark, who had wrestled before as the Nightstalker. Bomb hailed from 3 Mile Island and wore yellow contact lenses, along with the fallout sign on his singlet and knee pads. Johnny Polo (who later became Raven) managed Adam Bomb when he first debuted. Eventually, Harvey Wippleman took over his contract, before he and Kwang the Ninja turned on Bomb.
Throughout his time in the WWF, Adam Bomb never really exploded on the scene. He was midcard at best. I was in college during this era and didn't get to watch wrestling as often as I wanted to, but I kept up with things in the magazines. If memory serves me right, I think Bomb's biggest match probably came at Wrestlemania X against Earthquake. He lost that match.
Adam Bomb & Johnny PoloPhoto by WWE
I actually enjoyed the character. Bomb was by no means the best out there, but I found him mildly entertaining. I think he got lost in the shuffle of bad gimmicks the WWF had going at the time and just ever found a way around it.

In an attempt to cut the federal deficit by $1.2 trillion over the next 10 years, Congress passed the Budget Control Act in Aug. 2011.
This act is scheduled to trigger mandatory spending cuts on Jan. 2, 2013 to almost all agencies and programs of the federal government unless the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction proposes, and Congress then enacts, a plan to reduce the deficit. Given the current state of our economy, reducing the amount of federal spending is vital; but given the current state of federal politics, it seems unlikely such a plan will be passed before the deadline of those automatic spending cuts, known as sequestration.
Unfortunately, this effort to trim the staggering federal budget could withhold millions of dollars that have been set aside for conservation programs at the state level and would have no effect on the deficit whatsoever.
In 1937, Congress passed the Federal Aid to Wildlife Restoration Act that established a federal excise tax on sporting firearms and ammunition in order to ensure an ongoing source of federal funds to be used for wildlife conservation. The money collected via this tax is placed in a special trust fund and then distributed to the individual states based on hunting license sales.
The legislation also required states to prohibit money spent for hunting licenses from being diverted to uses other than wildlife conservation. This concept proved so successful that the Federal Aid to Sport Fish Restoration Act was passed in 1950 to provide trust fund for fisheries conservation funded by an excise tax on fishing tackle.
That act was then amended in 1984 to establish the Boating Trust Fund through taxes on motorboat fuel. Other amendments over the years have expanded the excises taxes to other sporting equipment such as archery equipment, handguns, trolling motors and fish finders.
In the 75 years since the inception of these special trust funds, hunters and anglers have contributed a whopping $14 billion to state fish and wildlife agencies to fund fisheries and wildlife management; hunting, fishing and boating access; and various education and safety programs.
Hunters and anglers can be justifiably proud for having paid the lion's share of the tab for conservation for so long. More important is the fact that money spent on wildlife and our natural resources benefits the quality of life for all citizens, not only those who hunt and fish.
As someone who has contributed mightily to that cause over the years through the purchase of sporting licenses and equipment, I am furious to learn that the pinheads in Washington plan to withhold 7.6 percent of the conservation trust fund monies from the states as part of their budget sequestration plan.
This is patently ridiculous for several reasons. First, this is money that has been raised as the result of so many of us voluntarily buying sporting equipment. Next, the federal government cannot spend any of this money itself and acts only as a pass-through to the individual states that can.
And since this money can only be sent to the states to be spent for conservation, it really is not part of the federal budget and has no impact one way or the other on the federal deficit.
Remember also that here in Pennsylvania, our Game Commission and Fish and Boat Commission are both independently funded agencies that receive no general tax money. Both agencies depend on the annual money from the conservation trust funds for a significant portion of their own budgets.
And because Pennsylvania is one of the top states for hunting and fishing license sales, we receive a large share of the trust-fund money.
This whole mess gets even more stupid because trust funds are supposed to exempt from sequestration. I've read a couple of explanations for why our conservation trust funds are not, but they mostly just gave me a headache trying to understand them.
Apparently, the money going into the trust fund is exempt, but the money coming from the trust fund is not - another fine example of the Washington financial witchcraft we've seen much of lately. The remedy is for Congress to amend the legislation to close the loophole.
If you want to see all the money we've paid for conservation to be released to be spent as intended, contact your U.S. senators and congressman or congresswoman and urge them to support the exemption for the Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Programs and Boating Safety Trust Fund.

South Side gas expansion eyed for 3 streets
May 14, 2013
Three South Williamsport Borough streets were accepted Monday night by council to be the first places that UGI Penn Natural Gas expands its service in the municipality. The motion was approved 7-1....
70 - 80 residents is NOT a small number. Tear down 70 - 80 more homes and see where your taxes end up. 70 - 80 people not show up and vote and see who doesn't get re-elected.
A chance that 70 -80 families (any where) get to experience lower utility bills and helping them rely less on taxpayer handouts.
1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Probably pretty close to the nail on the head Carl. That just seems to be the way things get done over here. And yes, just what we need, more street digging. Hopefully UGI will not be too invasive and will properly fix their holes. I'd like to see natural gas come down my street off of Mountain Ave. one day. I wonder if all the laterals and mains have been done on those streets. Perhaps after the gas work then maybe we'll see those streets get paved - it's a start maybe.
2 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Jeez, wonder if this has anything to do with the borough administrator and a sitting Councilman both living on one of these streets?
5 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Corporate welfare at its finest.
2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Good ideas. Now some of the residences will be able to experience lower utility bills.
Oh and I am sure that Donna Lambert will write in a few letters about the streets being torn up. But we ask her in advance for patience and long-suffering for the good of her neighbors.

SCE Federal Credit Union Provides the 1, 2, 3s of Mortgage Refinancing
If the turbulent Los Angeles county housing market – with home values dipping as much as 45 percent since 2006 – has ou confused about refinancing, you've come to the right place. Credit unions are lending a helping hand. Banks continue to tighten their lending practices after offering sub-prime loans that led to the housing bubble, which is making it difficult for Los Angelinos to adjust home loans.
"Refinancing your home mortgage loan can be very beneficial, but you need to apply it to your circumstances," said Shannon Furiani, SCE Federal Credit Union Vice President of Lending. "If you're going to stay in yoru house long enough to see the savings, then do it."
30-year fixed mortgages are at an all-tim low
Recent reports show interest rates on 30-year fixed mortgages have fallen to record lows, and SCE Federal Credit Union offers these tips for refinancing.
Trust your credit union
Home loans are complex. The language and acronyms in a home loan can be confusing and a good partner will simplify them for you. Credit unions have been trusted by their member-owners for more than a century. We're owned by our members, so the profits go back to you in the form of great rates on savings accounts and loans.
Weight your options
Historically, the rule of thumb has been to refinance if you can reduce your interest by two percent. Today, one percent is acceptable. Ask for good faith estimates to compare loan deals. Run the numbers yourself on a loan calculator to determine your break-even point and how much you'll save. Look at the details, such as interest rates, closing costs and any prepayment penalties.
Be prepared
Go into the refinance process being able to show your financial house is in order. Lenders will ask to see that you have a steady income, an acceptable debt-to-income ratio and good credit. Be prepared for a home appraisal, title search and application fees.
Refinancing your home loan can lower your interest rate, which will decrease the size of your monthly mortgage payment. If you're able to modify your loan, look into shortening it from a fixed 30-year to a fixed 15-year to build equity in your home faster. Lastly, refinancing your home allows you to switch from a fixed to a variable interest rate, or vice-versa.
At SCE Federal Credit Union, we pride ourselves on providing our members and communities we support with exceptional service and solutions to promote financial growth. Let our advisors help you achieve your financial goals.

Triglycerides constitute the majority of the body`s lipids,and it is these molecules that are generally referred to simply as "fat". The measurement of triglycerides in human serum is very important for clinical use in hospitals. In this thesis, a method was developed for this purpose. The work include analyzer modification, instrumentation adjustment and design of test programs etc.. The method used is enzymatic colorimetric method specifically adaptable to The OptimateTM Automated Fluorometer and Photometer manufactured by Ames Company, USA. In this method, triglycerides were hydrolyzed by lipoproteinlipase to glycerol and fatty acid. Through a series of intermediate reactions, the resulted glycerol was finally changed into a violet coloured compound which can then be determined photometrically. The increase in absorbance is proportional to the concentration of triglycerides in human serum samples. The developed method is proved to be easy to operate. Once started it follows the designed program in the microprocessor. After preparing the reagents, blank, standard and sample, putting them in place and setting the correct volume for reagent and sample, then the tests goes automatically. The method share the common sequence of enzymatic hydrolysis of triglycerides followed by enzymatic determination of the resulting glycerol. It is shown to be accurate and efficient. Through my tests, it correlate well with the method used in the Tampere University Hospital, provided that special attention is paid to the calibration of analyzers. /Kir10

A boy in his mid-teens suffered a gunshot wound to his leg Monday night during what police said is a gang-related shooting at East Memorial Park in Greeley.
Police received multiple calls around 6:45 p.m. from people in the park who heard gunshots and saw the boy limping. The shooting victim was in the park with others when two vehicles pulled up, and someone in the vehicle asked which gang the group in the park belongs to, said Sgt. Susan West, spokeswoman for Greeley police. The group in one vehicle fired into the park after the boy and others said they affiliate with a rival gang, West said.
"Although the public is not a target in these gang-related incidents, we understand the gravity when they occur in public places," West said. "We are taking a very strong stance against this violence and are doing everything we can to identify the perpetrators and arrest them."
Police said the boy's injuries were not life-threatening, but he had to undergo surgery. He's expected to recover, West said.

My cousin George Odell moved to Jamaica in 1973 to teach math and came home four years later with his bride, Hazel, a tiny girl with a big smile, skin the color of coffee beans, and a melodic laugh. Her Jamaican accent was hard to decode–but her Jamaican recipes were not.
Since Hazel's arrival, our family has been treated to many Jamaican specialties without names. They're just "Hazel's food," always delicious, always healthful. On this day in July, Hazel comes home from the market, her string bag full of coconut milk, ginger, limes, and cassava. She's preparing to cook some of her favorite dishes.
George and Hazel live in Newburyport, Massachusetts, near the sea, which feels right to both of them. George grew up by the water in Manchester, Massachusetts, and Hazel grew up in the Jamaican mountain town of Richmond, in St. Mary Parish. Hazel's father, a contractor and carpenter, kept a large garden and a few chickens, and the family netted fish right from the sea. "Everything was always fresh," she recalls. "We'd butcher the chicken just before we cooked it; we'd bring the fish right in from the ocean and cook it. The vegetables came out of the garden all year round. We'd just get it and eat it. Never refrigerate."
Hazel talks about the many fruits of Jamaica the way someone might talk about the stars in the sky: "Banana, papaya, naseberry, guava, guinep, star apple, mango …" She recites them all, on and on, and in the garden, or "cultivation," as it was called there, were tomatoes, peas, beans, and everything else under the sun–even cacao and coffee. "Like paradise," George says in fond recollection.
Inside their small house in Newburyport, they've re-created the kitchen of Hazel's youth, where her mother cooked constantly for her six brothers and sisters. Hazel learned to cook from her mother; George learned to cook from Hazel. Hazel and George have been vegetarians most of their married life. Over the years they've learned where they can get things like cassava and yams and callaloo, the staples of Hazel's early life. On our July visit, they're cooking chicken for us, so we can see how it's done, but for themselves, they use tofu or a soy-based meat substitute in recipes calling for chicken or fish. The flavor is much the same. When the burners are on, the spicy air of Jamaica drifts down Neptune Street, even in the dead of winter.
But it's summer now. Working at one counter, George is juicing limes and grating ginger to make his signature ginger beer, a recipe he's perfected over the years. Hazel doesn't like ginger beer. "That's his," she says. "But, mon, this guy can cook!" At another counter, Hazel is cutting up chicken legs with a huge knife. She hasn't forgotten the knack of cutting through the bone: one blow and it's done. She flashes her radiant smile. "This is how we did it," she says. And then she laughs, that happy sound of Jamaica.
Bonus: Get even more tropical recipes!

Islet Transplant Program
The Islet Transplant Program at the Emory Transplant Center in Atlanta, Georgia is one of just a handful of institutions around the world performing islet transplants as a type 1 diabetes treatment.
Islet transplantation is still in the research stage. Because recipients of islet transplants must take immunosuppressive drugs to prevent rejection, at present islet transplantation is only considered in patients with brittle type 1 diabetes.
The "Islets of Langerhans" or "islets" are clusters of cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. Insulin is released by the islets in response to glucose levels in the blood. Insulin allows the body to use the glucose to produce energy. People with type 1 diabetes have lost the ability to produce insulin. They must take insulin injections several times a day to control their glucose levels in order to stay alive. Learn more about islet transplantation >
Emory Islet Transplant Center Highlights
Emory is currently the only islet cell transplant program in Georgia. The first islet transplant was performed at Emory on March 20, 2003. As of August 2010, Emory transplant surgeons have performed 22 successful islet transplant procedures on 15 patients.
The islet transplant program at Emory received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Emory's Institutional Review Board (IRB) in January 2003, and is currently accepting patients in three islet transplant protocols.

A Boston couple has been arrested in connection with a string of at least six burglaries of bars and restaurants in the Southtowns, investigators from several law enforcement agencies announced Thursday.
Police executed a search warrant Wednesday at the apartment of Jacob Halbert, 23, and Erica Johns, 22. Inside, investigators found cash and liquor bottles believed to have been taken during the burglaries.
Following a string of early-morning burglaries of bars and restaurants in the Village of Hamburg, Town of Hamburg, Town of Evans and Boston over a period of three months, authorities in those municipalities recognized they had a burglary ring on their hands, explained State Police Investigator Robert Gardner.
Video and physical evidence collected at the scenes of the crimes eventually led investigators to Halbert and Johns.
Gardner said the pair allegedly stole about $5,000 and additional bottles of liquor in at least six burglaries, apparently to help feed their drug habit.
They were both charged with burglary and criminal mischief. They were arraigned and were being held at the Erie County Holding Center in lieu of $3,000 bail each.
Gardner said police are investigating whether they may be involved in other more recent burglaries in the Southtowns.
