According to the Alzheimer's Association, there are 10 warning signs for the disease. Early detection is important so you and your loved ones can seek necessary help in a timely manner.
- Memory loss that disrupts daily life. A common sign of Alzheimer's is forgetting recently learned information, important dates, and events or asking the same information over and over.
- Challenges in planning or solving problems. Some people may have trouble following a familiar recipe or keeping track of monthly bills.
- Difficulty completing familiar tasks at home, at work or at leisure. People with Alzheimer's may have trouble driving to a familiar location, remembering rules of a favorite game or managing a budget at
work. - Confusion with time or place. People with the disease can lose track of dates, seasons and the passage of time.
- Trouble understanding visual images and spatial relationships. Some people may have difficulty reading, judging distance and determining color or contrast.
- New problems with words in speaking or writing. Alzheimer's patients may have trouble following or joining a conversation. They may stop in the middle of a conversation and have no idea how to continue, or
they may repeat themselves. - Misplacing things and losing the ability to retrace steps. A person affected by the disease may put things in unusual places and may not be able to retrace their steps to find the lost object.
- Decreased or poor judgment. People with the disease may use poor judgment when dealing with money, or they may pay less attention
to grooming or keeping themselves clean. - Withdrawal from work or social activities. A person with Alzheimer's may start to remove themselves from hobbies and social events because they have trouble keeping up or remembering how to complete their favorite hobby.
- Changes in mood and personality. People may become confused, suspicious, depressed, fearful or anxious.
If you've noticed any of these warning signs for yourself or a loved one, contact your doctor immediately. Remember, there are resources to help you through this
difficult time like the Alzheimer's Association and MediNurse. For more information, reach out to us at www.medinurse.com or call 314-281-7800.

Guest Post by Ali from Wag The Dog
So, what do you feed your dog….??
Talking about pet nutrition these days is a bit of a mine field, there are so many options and so many opinions that sometimes, it can be hard to see the wood for the trees.
At Wag the Dog, we do not condone a particular diet or brand – as we are all to aware that there are multiple factors that need to be taken into account when people choose a pet food – but we thought that we would offer a few top tips to help people out.
This article really does literally just touch on a few points (there is a lot to discuss with pet food!), should you want any more info – feel free to contact us, and check our blog and next month's Newsletter for additional information.
One of the most important things, is to make sure you know the correct portion size for your dog – small or large, you need to ensure it is getting the right amount of food. Also know what goes in and what comes out!! What comes out is a great representative of whether your dogs diet agrees with them or not. Feed your pet twice a day at around the same time (do not be regimented about timing though as this in itself can cause problems – what if you are late home from work etc.?), and make sure your pet has a quiet environment to eat in. For larger dogs, you may wish to use a raised surface or raised bowl so they do not have to bend down too much, which can cause digestion problems and possibly bloat.
Okay, let's start with the" bones and raw food diet"; it is true that dogs are by nature carnivores, and, as a result require meat in their diet, however, if you are feeding them a diet entirely based on bones and raw food, then you need to be aware that they may be missing out on various vitamins and minerals that they do need to have for a complete and balanced diet. You can provide supplementation for your pet, and it is beset that you discuss this with your vet to ensure that you are providing the balance that they need throughout their diet.
If you wish to include meat in your dogs diet, but you are concerned about the cost, then consider buying chuck beef (off the bone) or chicken wings & chicken necks – both of which are fairly cheap by the kilo, even from your local supermarket. Remember that your dog should NEVER be given cooked bones, as these are too brittle – all bones given to your dog (or cat) must be raw. Beef brisket bones and chicken wings are great for your dog, but do bear in mind the size of your dog in relation to the size of the bone.
Raw bones are also the best form of dental care you can provide your dog, as the chewing process helps keep tartar and plaque down, however, if your dog is a big dog, it may simply bolt down chicken necks, which means that the dental benefits become obsolete. For smaller dogs and cats, you can cut up chicken necks/wings, to make it easier for them to eat, but they do need to actually crunch through the bones and chew them to benefit their oral hygiene.
Dogs need food for the same reasons we do – for energy – however, dogs do not need carbohydrates like humans do, although they can use them as a source of energy. Most dog foods these days are 'complete' – so in theory they should meet all your dogs dietary needs. When buying any pet food it is recommended you buy the best you can afford. With premium pet foods, the quality of the ingredients is usually better and your pet will actually need to eat less in order to keep it satisfied and happy.
It is advisable for your pet to receive some form of dry food/kibble as at least part of its diet and this can also help with dental care. However, it is not strictly true that eating dry kibble alone will clean your dogs teeth, it just clings to the teeth less than wet food and as a result less decay and bacteria will form on the tooth. A low quality, dry dog food will be cheaper than wet food (tinned food), however it will have a relatively low meat content and may have a high 'filler' ratio, such as soy and wheat – these can be difficult to digest and can cause allergies in some dogs.
Wet dog food (tinned food) can contain a lot of water – due to the high water content, if you were to feed your dog wet food alone, you would need to give it considerably more than if you were feeding it dry food. When you buy wet food, it can look like it is filled with meaty goodness – however, what you think is meat, may in fact be 'textured vegetable protein'. This is made up from soy products such as soy protein, soy flour or soy concentrate – it may also contain cereals too. As part of the wet composition of the tinned food, this can supply quite a lot of protein material to the contents of the tin, so even if a tin has a low protein composition, it may seem to have a lot of meat in it, which in turn, is actually vegetable.
Ideally you want a real protein source to be listed high in the ingredient list of your chosen food – i.e. beef, chicken etc. However, keep in mind that the listed item will be what is used at the start of the process, so it will not accurately tell you what is in the food after processing – where the water is removed. Make sure meat and fat products are specifically listed by species as this goes towards the quality of product that you are buying; avoid products that use unidentified 'animal', 'meat' or 'poultry' products in the food. Similarly, if there are 'meal' products in the food, you want them listed in a food specific way, the meal listing is also a little confusing, as the meal content represents the weight after water removal, so, realistically, you want your chosen meal product – such as chicken meal – to list higher than your basic meat product, as it is in essence, more meaty!
Pet food inevitably will include grains or cereals of some kind – be it wet or dry – it's a key part of the pet food industry. Choose a product that has corn rather than soy as it's chosen product – corn is more easily digestible to dogs than soy for example; also make sure that what is listed are quality whole grains rather than grain fragments – which really do have no nutritional value.
Too much cereal based food in a dogs diet can cause allergies in some cases and also hyperactivity (allergy reactions include: lethargy, hair loss, rashes, hotspots and diarrhoea). If you think your dry food may have a lot of cereal in it, then soak some in water for 15 minutes – if it swells up and goes mushy, then it has a high cereal content.
Five things that your dogs food should contain are; calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, sodium and linoleic acid (we will also be following up with the various things that your pet food should NOT contain!)
Dogs of course love food, and will, a lot of the time eat whatever you provide them with – however, you can provide them with a reasonably varied diet by combining dry food with wet food and also including raw bones in their diet too. If you decide you need to change your dogs diet for any reason, then do so gradually over a period of time – do not just swap their food over one day and hope that they like it!
Ultimately, whatever you feed your pet, it comes down to an individual choice for you and your dog – just be sure that your choice is an informed one!
Be safe; keep your family close and your pets closer!

Sarah Burton stuck to white, pink, red, black and silver for her fall/winter collection for Alexander McQueen. the looks were nothing if not voluminous. and light.
each look was accessorized by a think element around the neck, either that of fur or a Elizabethean-like column of organza, as well as a metallic wraparound eye piece (i am not sure if they can be called sunglasses?) and metallic belts in various sizes- often outfitted with a bold accent piece in the center. tufts of mongolian fur wrapped around the ankles, and fur found its way around the calves in a pair of heel-less boots that will be a key edition to editorials this summer.

No more bread? Ever? (Eating Well with Celiac)
This morning I'm enjoying a bowl of protein-packed popped amaranth for breakfast. Maybe you've never heard of amaranth...well now you have, and you should definitely try it! Along with quinoa (which is slowly gaining a reputation beyond being a hippie-dippie substitute for rice), millet, teff, sorghum, buckwheat (which has nothing to do with wheat), and over 30 other "alternative" seeds, grains and flours.
What do they all have in common? They don't contain wheat or, more importantly for me, gluten. Gluten intolerance and gluten allergy (celiac disease) are becoming more and more common around the world. Some people estimate that 10% of North Americans might have celiac; most just aren't diagnosed.
I've been eating a strict gluten-free diet for almost a year, and I feel great. No more getting sick after having a sandwich or a piece of pizza. Cutting out all of the coffee shop scones and muffins also helped me lose almost 20 pounds! Plus, I've learned about grains from around the world. Did you know that Ethiopian teff, the smallest grain in the world, is now grown in Idaho, or that Aztec amaranth almost went extinct when it was forbidden by the Spanish?
I think the switch has been relatively easy on me, since I enjoy cooking and prefer to cook from scratch anyway. That way, I control the ingredients that go into my food, and I'm not afraid to experiment. For someone who relies heavily on convenience and processed foods, it would be a much harder change due to all of the hidden gluten in packaged products.
Anyone else out there in the community living with celiac? Maybe you know someone who is? I'd love to hear your experiences or recipes!
Or do you have questions for me about gluten-free ingredients or recipes? I've learned a lot and I'm happy to share what I know! Ask away!

With infrastructure needing repairs throughout the county, members of the Harlan Fiscal Court searched for ways to repair and construct bridges at a recent meeting.
Magistrate Bill Moore requested repairs be made to Ledford Bridge, at Dizney. He said the county is" not equipped to fix this bridge because of manpower and equipment needed to complete the job." He estimated the cost to make the repairs at $25,000.
Magistrate Jim Roddy added he has a bridge in his district, located at Slack Holler in Crummies, which for the past two years "every time it rains he's up there at 2 a.m. or 3 a.m. trying to fix it."
"There's a trailer near the bridge and every time it rains the water gets up almost into their home and the residents can't get out," said Roddy.
Harlan County Road Department Supervisor Marvin Goins said he had looked at several options to remedy this situation.
"Rather than going with a bridge, we could use a bypass tile system," said Goins. "We're talking about putting a 36-inch tile off to the side of the bridge area and putting it a little above the one that is already there so when the water gets up it will bleed off."
Roddy said this would be "a Bandaid fix." He said there needs to be a bridge built for the residents in that area.
"I know we can't afford to do it right now," said Roddy. "I've been trying to come up with something for the past six months. The estimated cost for a new bridge will be over $20,000."
Goins said the bridge is "highly traveled."
Harlan County Engineer Leo Miller said one estimate was that the work could be done over a weekend to help residents in the area.
Goins responded by saying it will take him "more than a weekend to do the work needed."
"We can tear the bridge out completely, set two pieces of steel in and put (concrete) slabs on it," said Goins. "I don't know if the slabs would support the traffic. I could build one to support car traffic with no problem."
Harlan County Judge-Executive Joe Grieshop said this bridge will have to support 90 tons and this will drive up the costs along with having to do the work on a weekend.
Roddy told Grieshop he has steel beams, which were donated, he could use in the construction of the bridge.
Saying only $45,000 is left in the budget to help with these costs, Harlan County Treasurer Ryan Creech added the county originally budgeted $350,000 for this type of work and they are already $54,000 above that amount. Creech continued saying with the recent flooding in the county, funds from the asphalt budget will have to be used to make repairs to roads throughout the county.
Members of the court approved advertising for bids for the construction of both these bridges.
Also approved was a request for permission from Micah Group, of Lexington, to perform site investigation activities, as directed by the Kentucky Department for Environmental Protection Underground Storage Tank Branch, on property where the former Direct Fuels Service Station was located on KY 840. An analysis conducted indicated the presence of BTEX constituents above screening levels within the point of compliance. These approved activities will include monitoring well installation, along with soil and groundwater sampling in the area.

RIO GRANDE — The sixth annual Rockets over Rio is slated for this Saturday, and Rio Grande Village officials are planning their largest fireworks event yet.
Rockets over Rio is held annually on the Saturday of the Bob Evans Farm Festival and, according to Rio Grande Village Mayor Matt Easter, the event is held, in part, for those who travel to Rio Grande to enjoy the Bob Evans Festival.
"I'm a firm believer that small towns need fireworks," said Easter. "This is our way of welcoming all the guests that are staying at the [Bob Evans] Farm, as well as thrilling those who reside here all year round."
In addition, Easter reported that the fireworks show is funded wholly through donations and sponsorships. Municipal money is not utilized to organize the event. In fact, this is the third year running that the event is being entirely covered without the use of taxpayer money.
"Some people give $500 and some people give $20, but it all culminates into a great show that we can all be proud of."
The event is free and is headquartered at the Bob Evans Farms Hall parking lot on the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College campus. The fireworks, coordinated by Legendary Entertainment of Commercial Point, Ohio, will be set off in a clearing located between the Evan Davis Soccer Field and the university's practice soccer field below the Lyne Center.
The fireworks are scheduled to kick off at 9:30 p.m. and attendees are encouraged to attend a match between the Rio Grande men's soccer team and the University if Pikeville beginning at 7 p.m. on the Evan Davis Soccer Field.
According to Easter, this year's fireworks will be comparable to, if not better, than last year's show, and the overall event this year has been expanded. More concessions and food will be offered, inflatables for children will be available and attendees can tailgate at the non-alcoholic event.
"Every year tops the last, and that is my goal," said Easter. "This is my baby. I've rocked it since the get-go. I'm so proud of it for the simple fact that everyone works together that night … and besides, who doesn't like fireworks?"
For more information, visit Rockets over Rio on Facebook.

According to Shelia Riddle, who took this photo from her yard, the animal walked around and laid down at times. Riddle called the Department of Natural Resources, law enforcement, Chief Logan State Park and county animal control to have the animal rescued. The county employees tried to catch the animal, but were unsuccessful. They also asked around to see if anyone in the area owned the animal.

Yesterday the Supreme Court heard oral arguments on whether it has to wait to hear challenges against the health care reform law until 2015 when the first penalties must be paid following the implementation of the individual mandate in 2014. Neither the government lawyers nor those representing the 26 states believe the court is barred from hearing the case under the Anti-Injunction Act, which prohibits a person from bringing a lawsuit claiming that a tax is unlawful until after the tax has been paid. So the High Court appointed an independent, private attorney to argue that the Court did not have jurisdiction to decide the matter. That attorney's argument hinged on the theory that the penalty assessed under the law on those who fail to obtain health insurance is the same as a tax, thus the court must wait to hear the case until after 2015. According to NPR, the justices "appeared not to be buying" that argument.
Yesterday's arguments are available in audio files and a transcript.
Today's arguments focused on the individual mandate and if such a regulation is permissible under the Commerce Clause that allows the federal government to regulate interstate activity. Challengers of the law believe that the decision not to buy health insurance is economic inactivity, rather than activity, and therefore not a behavior the federal government can regulate, says the Washington Post. Proponents argue that the decision to not purchase health insurance has an economic effect because taxpayers essentially pay for the uninsured.
Tomorrow the justices will hear arguments on whether the law can stand if the individual mandate is struck down. Additionally, lawyers will argue the part of the law that expands Medicaid.
A ruling is expected in June.
HealthPartners, a nonprofit HMO, recently awarded Therapy Partners Inc a 2011 Excellence in Innovation award for its project Value-based Purchasing Model for Therapy Services.
Therapy Partners' 6-member independent physical therapy practices collected outcomes information using a patient-reporting tool over the course of 1 year. That information helped HealthPartners develop a pay-for-performance model for therapy services that focuses payment on value rather than on volume of services.
With health care reform's emphasis on developing new models of care that reduce costs and increase patient outcomes, it is important that physical therapists (PTs) begin to consider similar models for their practices. To help APTA members seek opportunities in the changing health care environment, APTA has created a series of videos that highlight various innovative clinical practice models. Each APTA member appearing in a video is part of a nontraditional, outside-the-box creative practice model. These videos can help PTs gain insight and inspiration as they look for ways to become involved in new models of care delivery.
Exercising for an hour every 2 days lowered blood sugar as much as daily 30-minute workouts in a group of 30 men with type 2 diabetes, says a Reuters Health article based on a Dutch study published in Diabetes Care.
The men in the new study were 60 years old on average. About half of them required insulin injections to control their blood sugar. The rest managed their condition with diet and oral medication.
The 30 men participated in 3 experiments that lasted 3 days each. In 1 of the 3 experiments, they cycled for 60 minutes on the first day and then rested the next day. In the other, they cycled for 30 minutes on 2 consecutive days. In the third, they didn't exercise at all. Throughout the experiments, they ate a standardized diet and were asked to continue with their daily level of activity.
The researchers continuously monitored the men's blood sugar during exercise and for the next couple of days.
When the men didn't exercise at all, they had high blood sugar 32% of the time. But when they biked, their blood sugar was in the high range only 24% of the time, no matter which schedule they followed, Reuters says.
The 2 exercise schedules also did equally well in terms of lowering the men's average blood sugar levels.
The authors suggest that women with type 2 diabetes are likely to reap the same benefits as the men in this study. However, the participants in the current study were relatively healthy. They didn't have heart disease and weren't extremely obese, so the results may not apply to all people with type 2 diabetes, says the article.

Five county commissioner candidates will square off for three open seats on the Richmond County Board of Commissioners come the Nov. 6 General Election. Three candidates are Democrats and two are Republicans.
On the ballot are incumbent Democrat and current Board of Commissioners Chair Kenneth Robinette and incumbent Democrat John Garner, and challengers Democrat Jimmy Capps, Republican Georgia Cagle and Republican Donnie Richardson.
The three candidates earning the most votes will be elected to the county board.
Robinette lives in Marston. He has been the chair of the board since 1998. Among his accomplishments he lists 1,150 new jobs, $939 million in investments since 2004, kept taxes down while raising revenue and garnered more than $49 million in grants for Richmond County.
Garner lives in Hamlet and owns Convenience Corner, Inc. in Hamlet.
Capps ran once before for a county board seat in 2010. Capps owns several businesses, one of which is J.C.'s Trailer Sales on Highway U.S. 1 South.
Cagle ran for sheriff in 2010. Cagle is the owner of Little Bo Steakhouse in Rockingham's Roberdel community.
Richardson worked for Bell South for 31 years, and helped form the Ellerbe unit of the Richmond County Rescue Squad where he held offices for 20 years including chief. He is also a member of the Mt. Pleasant Community Club.
Each candidate received a survey from the Daily Journal and returned the completed survey within a week. Candidates were able to submit a 50-word personal statement with their survey if they chose to, which some candidates did.
Below are the survey questions, as well as the candidates' answers:
What is your personal motivation for running for office?
Robinette said, "I decided to run for re-election because I believe that we have worked hard as a board to develop a plan to move the county in the right direction and I want to see our plan followed through. I know this election is about building a better county. It's about our county's future; it's about how we are going to grow, how we are going to make capital improvements and how we are going to protect our neighborhoods while enhancing the quality of life. I strive to provide the people of Richmond County with the highest level of community services, smart growth and development but most importantly, results. I do not run on a one-issue platform. It has always been my goal to do what is in the best interest of the county. I have the background, the experience and know-how to accomplish these goals."
Garner said, "I want to see Richmond County grow and prosper. This takes jobs, education and infrastructure. These are the three components for prosperity in my observation. Prosperity is a game changer for any community."
Capps said, "I was born and raised in Richmond County. I am now a local business man and I want to help improve the county as far as business, education, and help make the county grow."
Cagle said, "My personal motivation for running for the office of county commissioner is to help connect the public with the decisions that govern our county. By allowing our residents to express their ideas for improvements we will be placing not only the opportunity to help but the responsibility of the fate of our county in the hands of our citizens. The possibilities are endless when we choose to work together to succeed, everyone will benefit. If elected I will seek out the opinions of our residents. We are blessed here with a wonderful location with great resources, that isn't reflected as hard working or self reliant as a Tier one community to future industry. I will encourage everyone to take an active role in the decisions that will affect our future as well as the legacy we leave behind. The friendly people we call neighbors will provide the push that future employers will recognize as a community ready for a bright future in a new industrialized work environment."
Richardson said, "I feel that all the citizens of Richmond County should have a representative on the board that will represent them fair and equally. This county does not have a member from the north end of the county. And is not always considered when decisions are made that affect everyone of them."
If in your next or first term you could only have one goal, what would that goal be and how would you go about achieving it?
Robinette said, "As a rural Tier 1 county, Richmond County has to be concerned with Economic Development. It is the Board of Commissioners' job to generate income, through smart growth and development. My career as a Commercial Developer and membership on the North Carolina Southeast Board of Economic Development (The Regional Economic Development Marketing Organization for Southeastern North Carolina) have provided me with the experience and know-how needed to make sure we are getting the job done. During my tenure the Richmond County Board of Commissioners has been able to develop great working relationships not only on a local level but state and federal as well. The current Board of Commissioners has great relationships with all municipalities, Richmond County Schools, the community college, N.C. Southeast, N.C. Department of Commerce, Governor's office, Senate and House of Representatives. It is because of this cooperation that we have been able to work together to accomplish many great things. I want to continue to see these relationships flourish and accomplish great things for Richmond County. I am dedicated to running the county as I would my own business."
Garner said, "My one goal is the improvement in our quality of life and our standard of living. This can be achieved by providing good jobs, an education and working with each other."
Capps said, "My one goal would be to develop the Highway 74 bypass for future interstates 73 and 74 coming through our county. We need to be able to find a way for travelers and visitors to stop and shop in our county. I believe a county sewer system along the bypass would help start the development."
Cagle said, "I only have one main interest and that is to bring new employment possibilities to Richmond County. Our residents deserve to have employment opportunities that match the education currently provided at our local high school and community college, along with association with the North Carolina University system. I will be asking the residents to make suggestion of possible industry to locate here based on people that they would like to see become part of our new revitalization. Everyone wants to be part of positive expansion, and I feel the people of Richmond County are up to the challenge, to see us prosper by becoming involved. We have the opportunity to turn visitors into neighbors by making our intentions known that we plan on being an example of how great a small community can be by using the resources that we have to our advantage."
Richardson said, "We would have an open door policy that anyone that has an issue could have it heard and responded to. We would need to change the meeting time back to 7 p.m. The working citizens of this county are not able to get off and be there at this early hour of 5 p.m. The county manager should not have the authority to bar anyone from presenting a legitimate complaint at the open forum. And the employees of this county should be able to voice their concerns about issues without fear of reprisals."
Do you think every resident in Richmond County should be on county water lines?
Robinette said, "While I would like for every resident in the county to be on county water lines realistically this will probably never happen. It is important to remember that this is self-sustained enterprise and it would not be economically feasible to run county water lines to every resident in Richmond County. In other words, this is like running a business, the system is sustained by the revenues from selling water, and no tax money goes into operating the water system. Richmond County has a fairly extensive water system that includes 500 miles of water lines that serves approximately 7,100 residential meters and 165 commercial/industrial customers. In addition to the economics surrounding this issue there are also serious water quality issues that make this task virtually impossible. More specifically there are major water quality issues that arise from long dead end lines with very little usage on them. When possible the Public Works department installs loops to assure water quality. However, with long dead end carrier lines quality issues do arise. The only way to insure quality is by routine flushing. This essentially involves flushing our valuable commodity on the ground until water quality and clarity are acceptable and minimum state allowable chlorine residual numbers are achieved. This can be very expensive if being done more than on a routine basis. Therefore, based on the economics and water quality issues surrounding this issue I believe that installation of county water lines to every resident in the county is probably an unrealistic task. When looking at issues such as this it is important that we determine what is in the best interest of the county as a whole. Based on the economic and water quality requirements, most of the areas where water lines are feasible have been covered. We continue to look at other opportunities to expand the system within the constraints mentioned above."
Garner said, "If possible, yes. There are areas in Richmond County that are almost cost prohibitive to service but, there are areas that can support the cost of expenses and should be looked at. One area that comes to my mind is the Boyd's Lake Road community. We will also have to take a look at contaminated areas and respond appropriately."
Capps said, "Yes. Going back to my goals, it is a must for development of the county."
Cagle said, "To answer the question should every resident in Richmond County be on county water lines, I feel that all Richmond County citizens have the right to have access to county water if they choose. In December of 1990, the people of Richmond County voted for a water bond that was $7.9 million dollars, with 893 voting for and 359 voting against. It was stated in the Daily Journal the day before the election that with the expanding poultry industry, adding an additional 70 miles of water lines it would be a project that could pay its own way because of growth of the poultry industry. Right now 22 years later the same is true. One of Richmond County's largest agricultural contributors is poultry. With Richmond Community College offering an Associate's in science degree, RCC-NC State University in Poultry Science for the ever increasing need for qualified people to be educated in this growing area of agriculture. I feel access to water should be a service provided by the county that every taxpaying citizen should have access to and the right to decide if they would like to utilize this service. We need to support one of the largest taxpaying industries in Richmond County by allowing them access to services that will increase their growth for years to come."
Richardson said, "Yes, when the water lines bond was voted on it was voted on by the citizens of Richmond County, it was voted on by all the citizens of this county, not just a portion of the county. It was told that if the bond was passed it would serve all of the county. As in the past, there are statements made that affect all the citizens and only benefits a few. We are looking for great industry to come to our county and are forgetting a very large one, the poultry industry. The tax base that is received from our farmers in the form of poultry and hog operations is a very big one. Why can't the farmers that are in dire need of the water lines be furnished the lines that were supposed to be there from day one? The north end of the county is a beautiful part of our county and if the water lines were there I am sure there would be growth in the form of housing. We must remember there are a lot people that feel they are not being told the truth when they are promised something and it later is denied."
Personal statements
Robinette said, "This election is about building on the firm foundation we have set to create a better future for Richmond County. As your County Commissioner, I am going to continue to work tirelessly to ensure that the citizens of our county have the very best chances of a brighter future."
Garner did not submit a personal statement.
Capps said, "As a lifelong fan of Richmond County I want nothing but the best for this county, and will do everything I can to make it a better place to live, work, and play. If elected, I will give you my promise to do all I can to make it happen."
Cagle did not submit a personal statement.
Richardson said, "The time is getting near for the November election and I would like to ask if you feel you have received the bang for the tax buck you have spent. Or do you feel that after someone has been in office for as long as some of our elected have been, are you better off now than you were a few years back? We have been ruled for so long by the same group that I feel we should open up to some new ideas and some new faces. Let's get off our backsides and get some new blood on the board."

OK, I know that's a weird thread title, but I couldn't think of a better one!
I am wondering if some of you would share your thoughts on this odd phenomenon I've had going on: several different small creatures have come to me when they are dying, and stayed with me for their last moments. I was in my garden when a luna moth fluttered over (this has happened before, though not this year). Wings were tattered and two legs were broken, but its fat fuzzy body and multi-branched antennae were perfect. Still beautiful, I thought; but it was dying. It sat in the palm of my hand and shivered on and off; after a few minutes, it died. I sat on the earth beneath one of my favorite trees and tried to be whatever comfort I could until it was dead, and then I placed it gently into an empty birds' nest I'd found on the ground earlier that day.
Today I was walking beside the Susquehanna River, which was covered with dragonflies. I bent to splash some water on my neck (it's freakin' hot today!) and one of the light-blue dragonflies landed beside me. I looked more closely when it thrashed around, and it was dying. I put out my hand, and it crawled in. I stood there beside the river for a few minutes; eagles were soaring overhead, screeching; I asked it where it would like me to place its body when it had passed, and I felt it wanted to be in the water. So when it had gone, I put the body into the water and let the current sweep it away.
No more than a few minutes later, a black and red butterfly (don't know what kind) fluttered over and landed on my shoulder. It fluttered around some more, bounced off my wrist and fell to the ground. Jake said, "Why does everything come to you to die?" and I said I was just wondering the same thing. I bent over and offered my hand, and the butterfly fluttered up toward my shoulder again. It fell off, landed in my hand. It stayed for a few minutes, but was startled by Jake's shadow and flew off. I followed it briefly, but it flew further away, so I wished it peace and continued my own way.
These are the three latest examples of this odd phenomenon - I've had birds also do this, just not as recently; so I'm wondering what it is that makes me a magnet for dying creatures. I don't enjoy it, of course; it makes me sad to see them dying; but I do what I can.

The Baseball New Zealand Board of Directors have voted unanimously against sending the 15U National Baseball Team to the IBAF 15U World Championships in Chihuahua, Mexico in August of this year.This was a difficult decision for the Board, as the Mexico tournament was to be the first ever IBAF World Championship event for the sport of baseball in New Zealand at any age grade. However, the safety of the nation's top young players, coaches, and officials is paramount, and the warning from the New Zealand government is clear.
Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade's travel advisory is as follows:
There is high risk to your security in the city of Ciudad Juarez in the state of Chihuahua due to the high level of drug-related violence and we advise against all tourist and other non-essential travel.
There has been a significant increase in drug-related violence in Mexico in recent years. The worst affected areas are the northern states of Mexico bordering the United States (Baja California, Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas), including the cities of Ciudad Juarez, Nuevo Laredo, Tijuana, Mexicali, Matamoros, Nogales, Monterrey, Piedras Negras, Tampico and Reynosa.
See full NZ government travel advisory to Mexico
Baseball New Zealand is currently looking at alternatives for the 15U National Team or an alternate 15U National Development Squad, and will make a decision on whether or not a team will travel this year at this age grade over the course of the next four weeks.

Teachers question board spending
DIXON – Teachers question the school district's claim that it does not have the money to meet their demands for a new contract, according to a statement issued by their union.
The Dixon Education Association is asking for a 6-percent raise every year for the next 5 years, while the Dixon School Board is proposing no salary increase and wants to increase the amount teachers pay for health insurance.
The union estimates its demands would cost the district about $2 million a year over the life of a 5-year contract. The board contends the demands would cost about $6.3 million a year.

97% of patients would refer friends and family to us.
Dr Manhard and his team are always the best. Incredibly straightforward with information which is so appreciated. The hygienist was personable and had a wonderfully gentle touch.
That was the best extraction I have ever had done. I was very nervous but Dr. Manhard was so incredibly patient kind and very skilled. There was no pain and he made me feel very comfortable and safe.
i appreciate dr manhard for his honesty and always trying to do quality work vs finding things to "fix". i really do appreciate that! i am happy with the work you have done for me. my only concern is with his receptionist. i called out sick from an appt last week and was scolded, basically made feel like a liar b/c i told her i was very sick and could not come in. she then proceeded to tell me that "this is a business..how do you think he is going to get paid?" and dr manhard will charge me $50 for missing this appt b/c he still needs to make money. she was so rude and cold on the phone. i told her i would never walk in this institution again if i was treated this way or charged for that matter. i was so sick and upset and to be talked to that way was out of bounds.
then, when i came in for the appt first thing out of her mouth was, "wow you are so tall...i thought i was tall!". who says that? i dont need comments about my body when i walk into the dentist. professionalism is all i ask for.
sad that your receptionists keep changing and i think it will definitely hurt your business to have people like that representing you. especially in a market like carlsbad....let me know if you need a good referral. i know a person who would be great for your office and can talk better to your customers. thanks for asking my opinion.
Thorough, quick and easy as always.
Always very friendly and competent service.
Great dentist
excellent! Dr. Manhard is the best! -
Dr. Manhard is an excellent dentist and a fine person. I have been a patient of his for many years. .in fact, I 'followed' him from his previous office, which was a LOT closer to my home. That is saying a lot, as I have been fearful of "the dentist" since childhood.
I highly recommend Dr. Manhard, for his skill and easy going manner.
Captain Drew Johnson, Rancho Santa Fe
It is not the 'quality of dentistry' I have a problem with. It is the 'honesty' of the office staff. HOW would YOU feel, after having stood there, face to face with them, where they told you; "Your insurance will pay for 100% of this procedure, you just need to pay a $50 co-pay". . . you pay the co-pay, have the procedure done and a month later you get a bill for $227 !?! . . AND they are being nasty about 'collecting' it !
Sorry, that feels like "bait & switch" to me AND. . lying, cheating and just dishonest business practices. I have got a feeling I will NOT be using these folks again for my dental needs. It is too bad, as Dr. Manhard is a nice, competent man. But, I am feeling screwed. Your mileage may vary.
great job
Dr. Manhard is the BEST!! I have always been afraid to have Dental work since I had many horrible experiences growing up. Still at 25 yrs I get nervous but Dr. Manhard is amazing! I will not go with anyone else. Ill be moving soon but I will fly down to see him, that's how well my experiences have been in this office.
Great work.

Upson County is taking the steps to enhance the broadband capabilities of the county so that it may better serve the existing industries and citizens as well to help recruit new prospects to the community. Thomaston-Upson Industrial Development Authority Director Kyle Fletcher and Upson County IT Director Robert Haney spoke to the Board of Commissioners at their meeting Tuesday to bring them up to date on the broadband feasibility study that has taken place over the last year.
Upson County signed on in early 2012 to be part of a study with Heard, Meriwether, and Troup counties to determine what areas are in the greatest need of better broadband communications. Haney noted that during that study it was revealed that what is needed most in the area is better local distribution of the fiber optic network to customers. He continued stating the county looked into several methods of broadband service delivery and found a Y-max wireless network which offers high bandwidth broadband will work best for the area.
Upson and the other three counties are in the process of forming the West Central Georgia Broadband Joint Development Authority to help with the acquisition of grant funding for broadband projects. Fletcher noted this will be a great tool to help enhance Upson County's broadband capabilities by allowing the county to continue to serve the existing industries, but at the same time recruit new prospects.
The make-up of the joint development authority is modeled after a region in North Georgia which has successfully done a project like this before. County Attorney Ed Trice stated he has been involved with drafting a resolution to establish the West Central Georgia Broadband Joint Development Authority and he feels it will work well for the community. The authority will consist of a five-member board with one representative from each of the four counties and one person from the citizenry at large. He told the board they would have to approve the resolution once it is complete.
Commissioner Steve Hudson told the board the beer and wine application for Mr. Ankit Patel for the Kinjalben Corporation was withdrawn by the applicant, however action still needed to be taken since the issue was tabled at the last meeting of 2012. Hudson made a motion to deny the application, to which the rest of the board agreed. The proposed location for Mr. Patel's operation was on Highway 74 between Old Alabama Road and Harvey Street. Several citizens of the area spoke in December against the business selling beer and wine, stating it was a residential neighborhood and there was not a need for another store selling alcohol in the area. Rev. Claude Turner spoke during the Jan. 22 meeting, stating he appreciated the withdrawal of the application because he feels the community has shown they do not want this in their neighborhood. He also noted he appreciated the community standing up for what they believe in.
EMS Director Richard Lee gave the board the quarterly EMS report, stating that call volume is close to setting a record high this month due to the many cases of the flu going around. Lee noted that many people have been trying to handle having the flu on their own instead of going to the doctor's office because they are so full, but some have put off seeing a doctor for too long and have gotten very sick and therefore called the EMS.
In other business, the board selected Carol's Consulting and Grant Management to be the grant administrator for the CDBG (Community Development Block Grant).
At the urging of Commissioner Ralph Ellington, the board is looking at dates to host a series of town hall meetings to discuss a mixed drink referendum for the county. Ellington stated this is something that he has heard about his whole life and he feels it is time to do something one way or the other. The Times will list the dates of the meetings as soon as they become available.
Commission Chairman Rusty Blackston is asking the community to consider applying to be on the Office Building Authority or the Thomaston-Upson Transportation Committee. Applications for either board can be picked up in the Commissioner's Office, located in Suite 110 of the Government complex at 106 East Lee Street.

Anna Pomerantz, an interior designer, and Colby Buddelmeyer, a consumer products developer, celebrated their love with an eclectic wedding on September 3, 2011 in Santa Monica, California. Their nuptials -- big on personalized details and graphic design elements -- had bohemian and Navajo touches that fit their backyard bash to a T.
The letterpressed invitation suite, designed by Thunderwing Press, reflected the wedding's palette of indigo, gold, and rust, and featured floral and Navajo motifs and unique typography. It also boasted a custom logo that incorporated the couple's initials and represented their love of California (their names start with C and A, after all). With a palette of indigo, gold, and rust, the pieces fused floral designs, graphic Navajo elements, and unique typography.
The couple chose to have their ceremony at Hotchkiss Park, just a few blocks away from Anna's parents' historical craftsman home -- and the site of their cocktail hour and reception.
Anna accessorized her Carolina Herrera gown with diamond earrings she received for her 18th birthday and her grandfather's Masonic ring (it also happened to be her mother's old engagement ring).
Colby's Marc Jacobs suit and shirt were accented by a blue Dior tie. The non-traditional couple saw each other prior to the ceremony to pose for portraits taken by photographer Charley Star of CharleyStar Photo.
Anna's stunning clutch was made of heirloom garden roses, wax flower, passion vine, Echinacea, thistle, and amaranthus, all bound by strips of chambray fabric. This bouquet and other floral elements were created by Bash, Please, who designed and planned Anna and Colby's fete.
Anna's sister, pregnant with her first child, wore an ABS Collection for A Pea in the Pod gown. Colby's sister donned a BHLDN frock. Both girls carried bouquets of Pampas grass tied with strips of denim.
The groomsmen, along with Anna's and Colby's dads, wore customized Vans and J.Crew suits. The groom slipped into Paul Smith socks and Dior shoes for the ceremony, but exchanged them for Vans later in the evening. His suit was Marc Jacobs.
Anna walked down the aisle with her parents to "Ferris Wheel" performed by the Living Sisters. Coincidentally, the pair's rehearsal dinner was held on Santa Monica's pier, famous for its big wheel, just the night before.
Long tables and a hodgepodge of chairs from Yeah! Rentals were set up on the manicured lawn and patio covered with rugs from Casa de Perrin.
The 125 guests dined under strands of bistro lights and a pattern wash projected on the lawn. Heirloom LA created a menu that started with pumpkin empanadas, cactus angolotti, and mini chile rellenos. For the main meal, guests noshed on a farmers' market salad, stuffed squash blossom, tamales, charred sweet potatoes, and wild rice and beans.
The cake by Vanilla Bake Shop was embellished with fondant rope at the base of each tier. Inside were layers of coconut cake, yellow cake with chocolate frosting, and chocolate cake with salted caramel frosting.
In addition to the wedding cake, tres leches cake and spiced sandwich cookies were also served. For guests looking for a healthier option, Mexican fruit was at their disposal -- a play on the L.A. produce stands where melon, mango, or papaya can be bought with a squeeze of fresh lime, salt, and cayenne pepper.

James Hood dies; defied segregation at University of Alabama
ABOVE PHOTO: In this June 11, 1963 file photo, Vivian Malone and James Hood stand in the doorway of Foster Auditorium where they hold what they called their "first and final news conference" after the two African-American students registered at the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa, Ala. Earlier, Gov. George Wallace had barred their way from the same doorway. Hood, one of the first black students at the University of Alabama, has died. He was 70.

One of the first black students who enrolled at the University of Alabama a half century ago in defiance of racial segregation has died. James Hood of Gadsden was 70.
Officials at Adams-Buggs Funeral Home in Gadsden said they are handling arrangements for Hood, who died Thursday.
Then-Alabama Gov. George Wallace made his infamous "stand in the schoolhouse door" in a failed effort to prevent Hood and Vivian Malone from registering for classes at the university in 1963.
Hood and Malone were accompanied by Deputy U.S. Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach when they were confronted by Wallace as they attempted to enter the university's Foster Auditorium to register for classes and pay fees.
Wallace backed down later that day and Hood and Malone registered for classes.
UA President Judy Bonner remembered Hood as a man of "courage and conviction" for being one of the first black students to enroll at the university.
"His connection to the university continued decades later when he returned to UA to earn his doctorate in 1997. He was a valued member of The University of Alabama community, and he will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time," Bonner said.
Hood was the last survivor among the major figures in the schoolhouse door incident. Wallace died in 1998, Vivian Malone Jones in 2005 and Katzenbach last year.
After enrolling, Hood remained at UA for a few months and moved to Michigan, where he received a bachelor's degree from Wayne State University and a master's degree from Michigan State.
He later moved to Wisconsin, where he worked at the Madison Area Technical College for 26 years. He retired in 2002 as chairman of public safety services in charge of police and fire training.
He finally returned to UA later in life to earn his doctorate.
Culpepper Clark, author of "The Schoolhouse Door: Segregation's Last Stand at the University of Alabama," called the schoolhouse door incident "an iconic moment" in the Civil Rights Movement because it provided a confrontation between Wallace and the Kennedy administration. He said the incident was "symbolically important" and helped lead to passage of the Voting Rights Act.
Clark described Hood as a man with a lot of "intellectual energy" who understood the importance of what he did at the University of Alabama in 1963.
"He didn't try to make it into more than what it was," Clark said.
The Rev. Preston Nix grew up in Etowah County and said he knew of Hood, who was several years older than he.
Nix said it took a lot of courage for Hood to challenge the segregation at the University of Alabama in 1963.
Nix said he felt Hood did what he did partly to "pave the way" for others to be able to improve themselves and get a higher education and partly because he wanted to attend the University of Alabama.
Samory Pruitt, vice president for community affairs at UA, agreed with Nix.
"Because of what he did, people like me were afforded the opportunity to go to the University of Alabama," said Pruitt, who is black. "I think it's about people having the opportunity to be the best they can be."

Seeking Independence
Thousands of people with disabilities are currently living in nursing homes despite the fact that almost all, if not all, of them could live independently in their communities. An overwhelming majority of people with disabilities who live in nursing homes would rather receive assistance and support in their own homes but, by default, many of these people are not given a choice and are forced to live in large institutions.

The biannual Organizational Discourse Conference celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2012. In the past two decades 'discourse analysis' has firmly established itself as a topic of interest, an analytical perspective informing a variety of critical theoretical approaches, and a methodology for organizational research. A discursive approach has been widely adopted in a variety of subfields. In the 10th Conference we take the opportunity to critically reflect on the contribution of organizational discourse to some of these fields in which 'discourse' is frequently invoked as a frame of analysis, such as culture and collaborative practices, power and identity processes, discourse and institutional change, diversity and distinction-drawing, and materiality and embodiment.
Theme "Processes, Practices and Performance"
The substantive theme for the 2012 conference – Processes, Practices and Performance – refracts a range of analytic themes which have come to characterise process approaches to organizational analysis. Discourse analytical approaches are particularly well suited to address repeated calls:
We welcome submissions which develop a process understandings of organization, taking seriously the notion that – within the contextual constraints of what are taken to be pre-defined structures – organizational actors can be viewed as 'talking', 'writing' and 'acting' organizations into existence. We also welcome papers which take the workaday practices and discursive acts of organizational members as its primary focus, bringing organizational analysis closer to the mundane, day-to-day aspects of organizing. Finally, we wish to investigate the performative dimensions of organizational life by analysing the material, textual and bodily performances at work and organizational actors' 'dramaturgical' presentations of their individual and collective 'selves' in different arenas.

CDBG Grant Funding Public Meeting
By: Administrator
Updated: October 17, 2012
Tonight the City of Utica held a public meeting to discuss Community Development Block Grant funds. Members of the community along with city officials discussed how the funds could be allocated. CDBG grants are funds the City uses to improve the community. These meetings offer an opportunity for officials to find out what the community would like to see improved.
The Director of Urban and Economic Development Brian Thomas says, "Really it's not so much what they get out of them, it's what the City gets out of them. We're here to hear from the neighborhood and the citizens as to priorities and activities they feel should be focused on with the CDBG funds."
Last year the city had over $2 million in CDBG funding. Tonight was the first of three meetings.
