Published January 1, 1997.
Why did it take six months to develop the right recipe for a chewy, thick, buttery oatmeal cookie? Well, it all started and ended with the back of the Quaker Oats box. . . .
When we considered doing a story on oatmeal cookies, the first place we went was the back of the Quaker Oats box, and the cookies the Quaker recipe produced were very good. Nonetheless, we wanted something more--more chewy, more moist, and more substantial.
We were after a big, moist, chewy oatmeal cookie with lots of real oat flavor.
After literally months of testing, our final recipe was in fact still very close to the Quaker Oats recipe that had gotten us started, but we had discovered four simple changes that made a significant difference in the end result. First, we substituted baking powder for baking soda. The baking powder gave the dough more lift, which in turn made the cookies less dense and a bit chewier. Second, we eliminated the cinnamon recommended not only in the Quaker Oats recipe but in lots of other recipes. By taking away the cinnamon, we revealed more oat flavor. Third, we made our cookies really big, doubling the amount of dough most recipes recommend dropping onto the cookie sheet. We had learned that small cookies tend to be dry; by increasing size, we got more moisture and more chewiness. Fourth, we increased the sugar in our cookies, and this made a huge difference in terms of texture and moistness.

Salar de Uyuni is one of the top attractions to see during any visit in Bolivia. Salar de Uyuni is famous for one thing – salt! These beautiful soda lakes are located 350 km southwest of Uyuni, across a surreal desert landscape.
Salar de Uyuni spreads out over 4 square miles of surface area and yet is so flat that the largest range in height throughout its vast property is just over 3 feet. However, the whole thing is actually almost 12,000 feet above sea level! It is unknown exactly how much salt lies within this spectacular natural wonder, but at least 25,000 tons of it is extracted and mined every year.
The Salar de Uyuni salt flats is one of the most incredible and breathtaking sights on earth. This entirely flat, sparkling, blinding white landscape seems to stretch for miles with no end as if it was the ends of the world itself.
When covered with a thin layer of water around the month of December, it becomes a perfect glorious sparkling mirror of all that is around it. Some pink flamingoes visit every November which makes it a great month for a visit.
Hot in the sun, and bitterly cold at night, Uyuni is the jumping off point for Bolivia's most spectacular scenery. For travelers seeking nature's most beautiful sights, there's no place better than Salar de Uyuni. The sunrises and especially sunsets will be unlike anything you've ever seen before as the colors not only dominate the sky, but also melt across the shimmering salt plains like the most vibrant real life watercolor painting in the world.
This is a fantastic place for photography. Salar de Uyuni is a trip of a lifetime that will dance in your memories forever.
Due to a dense, 6-foot salt crust, it appears like a desert. Scorched by day, frozen by night, the flats harbor one of the most extreme daily temperature dichotomies on the planet. The weather can be very cold, but it is well worth it for the amazing scenery.
In June and July the bright blue skies contrast with the bright white salt crust. After an especially wet season, the lake is covered in water which adds to the special experience. The winter months can be extremely cold, but trips to the Salar are still possible and stunning.

Normally when we think of practice, we immediately think of mastering a skill in some form of art or athletic ability. Rarely do we make it a goal to master our inner strength the way we would to set a goal to lose weight or save money. With all great things, 1st comes practice. Not saying it will be easy, but with all things, practice does have the ability to make it better.

I should be getting the game tomorrow. I bought the Dream Radar as soon as it was available, so I have a Riolu, Munna, Igglybuff, Swablu, Sigilyph, Shuckle, and Tornadus all ready for transfer.
i've been too busy playing borderlands 2 to give a fuck about pokemon
ps you guys are nerds
Someone's clearly jealous.

I wish I had Borderlands 2 and/or BW2 but I too am broke and I'm still playing Madden 11. Borderlands seems soooo awesome though argh why can't I just find $60 in between my couch cushions or something.
A Dick Tracy, if you will.
I added you guys.
I'm okay with this.
In the world of Pokeyman B2, I beat Burgh entirely too easily (Growlithe smoked him, and Dewott knocked over all the Dwebbles in the Gym). I evolved Sewaddle all the way up to Leavanny already. Shockingly kind in terms of happiness evolutions, really, since I got it at level 21. Maybe it's because I've been walking around a lot instead of raising it extensively...

I currently have a Snivy, Riolu, Venipede, and Dunsparce. I plan on completely ditching the former two. Only reason I even caught riolu was because I needed a fighting type for the first gym.
Also, I think I'm going to be desperately sad if they don't have an Audino exp type system in the next generation. It's really useful.
I think Drilbur's just gonna be my sixth member for now. Interestingly, though, I'm being actively challenged to a rematch by a generic trainer -- a Pokemon Breeder on Route 4. This is new... but I like EXP, so.

I have the following..
Dewott 24
Lucario 24
Eevee 25
Growlithe 24
I'm training to fight Elesa..I wanted a Braviary but I have Black 2 so I got Mandibuzz -___- looking for a Roselia now.
I plan on adding an Elekid and Drilbur to my team. I'm not sure for the other slots. I haven't really been keeping up on which pokemon show up where (riolu was a HUGE surprise to me) so I guess when I find one I like I'll have it. I kind of wish Litwick was available early game.
You guys suck that have Borderlands 2.
I have to wait for my paycheck. >-< Everyone on my friendslist is constantly playing it and everyone is going to finish it before I even get the damn game haha.
God dammit Black 2 is out already.
I really want it but I'm thinking of just getting it shipped to my door so I don't have to explain to my mom why I need to get a Pokemon game.
By the way is there any event going on now or can I just wait for a little while and not miss out on anything before I buy it?

Figures Laimbeer would have to exploit one of his fellow cartel members in order to expand his own chances, however futile, of defending his crown against me.
Why didn't you say anything right after it happened? I guess no one would have minded to let you re- collect him.
Wart, I am beating you like a rented mule. This must be so embarrassing, getting trounced by a funny talkin' Canadian eh?
What are you talking about? You're up 1.25% on FT %, and I have tied you on 3P after you lead all week. I am very close to taking this 7-2.
yeah. I'm not doing so good. Been a bit distracted on the weekend. plus that keeper thing...i kept some mediocre guys
i kept OJ and Rose. These guys are 5th rounders. But aside from Gasol...I wasn't so attached to the others. I think my team will stabilize later on but it'll hurt until then.
5-4 this week against Slippy, unless Scola grabs a couple blocks. Missing Dampier tonight probably kept me from going 6-3 since he would have blocked Stuckey at the rim a half dozen times, and probably would have evened up the scoring category for Slip by slowing StuckRod's scoring. Still undefeated and I am starting to get healthy.
This Keeper league has not been kind to me so far. My team needs some frozen bananas big time!!! D.Williams, Murphy, Harris, Butler, Carter, and Barbosa have missed a combined 22 games already! Not including Tyrus Thomas who is out for weeks and I've already dropped. Makes life difficult.
It is hard for this league to be as kind as the Advanced League where people can't even trash talk you in the right thread!
Should be at least another 5-4 week for me, playing the Darko Malcontents. I think bball jay can win FT%, PTS, T/Os and 3PM. Looking at the season stat rankings, PistonsForum.com Keeper League Standings - Free Fantasy Basketball - ESPN I think I am really competitive placing first in REB, AST and STL, and 2nd in FG%.
my team's in the lower middle class in every category escept for blocks... long, long season this gonna be...

text: I bought this used from CowBoom for $127. The coax input was ripped out of it and I got it for the little kids using a comcast $2 a month SD box with only coax out. So Newegg had it for $130 shipped last night and I was going to test it this morning and see if it played ok with a VCR/DVD player. This morning it was $10 cheaper at $99.99 and went from $20 shipping to free shipping so I ordered one. Good reviews, 720P, good for little kids or a garage TV or whatever. Three HDMI inputs, my garage TV only has one. If you are a new customer, it would be $89.99. |

How many times have you said, "damn, too bad I'm a virgin?" Look no further for the answer -- you've just stumbled upon NEMO's Official Get-Off-Your-Ass-+-Into-Some-Pussy Challenge!! It's finally here, by popular demand (since Blazing is pretty popular let's face it)! Actually, it came up as a joke on AIM and I decided it would be for the good of the site if I made a thread for this -- it has recently come to my attention on Skype that a large percentage of you dancin' folk are in fact tremendously sexually inexperienced. Even if you're saving yourself for marriage, you don't want to show up wedding night in the bedroom and not know what's going on, do you??
All you have to do to challenge is post in the thread and say you want to participate, and I'll add you to the Challenger List, give you a deadline, and be your coach through the time period to help you get some puss. I guarantee I can get anyone on here something (with the possible exception of Puma and Derkomai), so please, don't be afraid! I know you all love Blazing, so lucky you guys, he's the first on the list!
I'll update the list of challengers and their assigned goals in this thread. Feel free to post asking for advice or help from the masta.
When you challenge, post a picture of yourself and some personal goals. It's also recommended you post your perceived strengths, weaknesses, things you'd like to change about yourself and what kinds of girls attract you (social and financial standings, clothing type, figure, etc.) If you are a girl, you should not be taking this challenge in the first place because all a girl has to do to get laid is stand on the corner, so you don't need me.
I do believe I can help you, but I also believe you must be there helping yourself for any kind of result. If you don't at least try what I suggest, don't complain when the girl you've always liked but have always been too shy to greet fucks your dad.
Finally, if you really want/need the help I can offer here, ignore posts I didn't make. I'll validate posts I see fit, but a lot of stuff in here, given the forum I'm posting this thread in, might get ambiguous or be posted jokingly (for instance, Cosmic Poop's tips on how to get a girl in the first couple pages of the thread). And if you're too shy to post in the thread, feel free to PM or, better, instant message me -- but be warned, if you take the Challenge privately, your fellow r21 members won't get to see you bloom!
As for the thread, of course it'll likely get spammed, but on a serious level feel free to post tips, share stories, et cetera. When it comes to the challenge I suggest taking my posts seriously, but when it comes to having fun in the JunkYard, anything goes!
Edit -- 10.13.09
Just a couple things I want to point out: First, don't ask questions without reading the thread first. We're on page 14 right now and a whoooole lot of valuble information is draping the thread in shimmering pussy juice, so be sure to read it all before you try to get individual. Second, when you take the challenge, keep in mind that you're only challenging yourself; I'm here to help you if you think you need it, but it's all about you. If you have as much faith in yourself as I do, there won't be any problems!
There are no current challengers. Step up to the plate and swing away at some quality gash!
[Reveal] Spoiler: Former Challengers
9.29.09. Challenger: Blazing. Goal: Make out with a girl and feel her up by November 1st. Completed, now dating!
11.20.09. Challenger: B1uEM4oM4o. Goal: On his November 22nd date, to kiss and/or ask his girl out. Completed, now dating!
11.17.09. Challenger: AJAX. Goal: Get a girlfriend by December 19th. Completed, now dating!
11.20.09. Challenger: B1uEM4oM4o. Goal: On his November 22nd date, to kiss and/or ask his girl out. Completed, now dating!
11.17.09. Challenger: AJAX. Goal: Get a girlfriend by December 19th. Completed, now dating!
[Reveal] Spoiler: Gameless Mortals
In here I'll post challengers who failed for unacceptable reasons, such as laziness, neglect, lack of communication with the thread or ignoring advice. I'll say it again: if you take the challenge and come to me when you have any doubts, I will save you! You need to trust in NEMO -- I will gude you to the pussy if you just give me your hand. Finally, if you inadvertantly find yourself in this section, you can always try again; just don't make the same mistakes!
3.18.10. Challenger: Mootz. Goal: Date Katie by April 20th. Failed, now masturbating!
3.18.10. Challenger: Mootz. Goal: Date Katie by April 20th. Failed, now masturbating!
Finally, allow me to close the post with an inspirational piece of advice from one of r21Freak's legendary trolls:

I can relate. I too have CIS-Basic on my 16V. I can help with issue #1.
CIS-Basic doesn't have ISV, but on Mk1s, they used an auxiliary air regulator that pretty much did the same thing an ISV did.
When you start the car cold, you should hold it at 2K rpms for about a min or so. Afterwards, the engine will idle just fine. I have an aftermarket water temp hooked up to mine and I take my foot off the gas when it gets to 100*F and the car idles fine afterwards
I had a thought and idea which I will get around to doing eventually. The auxiliary air regulators plug is only consisted of 2 wires. One is for ground and the other is for a switched 12V. It too has no ports just like a stock 16Vs ISV does except where the 16V ports are aimed left and down for the vacuum hookups, the auxiliary air regulators is aimed left and right. If and when I get around to doing mine, I would make a custom bracket to have it mounted in between the 2 intake manifold runners and positioned just where it sits a little bit over the fuel lines. Pretty much I would make a bracket mounted to one of the studs where the upper and lower intake manifold meet. Then, I would route the vacuum lines, one coming of the intake pipe and the other one to the cold start valve connecting pipe.
I hope you can understand and this gives some insight as well.
Sorry I can't help on issue #2

text: Ok, so my friend and I have ordered a Nuke Pro Maxx, a stiffy tube coupler, an Aeropac Retainer, and a 2.14 bulkhead. Our goal is to make a DD capable NMP rocket that can reach supersonic speeds and over a mile high on nothing larger than an I motor. The parts were ordered from apogee today and should be here Saturday or Monday, so all I have left to buy are rail buttons, nomex, and a shock cord. The first two I can get locally, but the chord I will order from Top Flite. Chances are that if this build goes well, I will buy the same kit and do the same project for myself instead of with a group, just because I love the kit so much.

MONROE, Conn.--Sandy Hook School teachers, students and parents are preparing for an emotional return to school on Wednesday, a day before classes are set to resume at a repurposed facility here and less than a month after a gunman killed 20 children and 6 adults--including principal Dawn Hochsprung--in a rampage at their elementary school in Newtown.
An open house for students and parents is scheduled for Wednesday afternoon at Chalk Hill School, a former middle school that workers have spent weeks preparing to house the Sandy Hook children. School officials say they have tried to completely recreate classrooms in an effort to make students as comfortable as possible.
Parents are being encouraged to attend school with their children upon their return Thursday, though school officials want children to take buses to school on their own.
"I want to reassure you that we understand many parents may need to be near their children on their first day(s) of school and you will be welcome," interim principal Donna Page wrote in a letter to parents. "That being said, we encourage students to take the bus to school in order to help them return to familiar routines as soon as possible. Parents choosing to join their children may come to school after our 9:07 a.m. opening and will be welcome in the classroom or the auditorium throughout the day."
To "ensure a safe and secure environment," Page continued, "we ask that no more than one adult family member accompany his/her child."
Some of the therapy dogs that have blanketed Newtown in the wake of the shootings will also be present at the school to comfort the children. Ten golden retrievers from Chicago's Lutheran Church Charities, which were sent to Newtown to comfort survivors last month, traveled back to Newtown on New Year's Day to prepare for the school's reopening.
Other public schools in Newtown reopened within a week of the shootings, but Sandy Hook Elementary has remained closed since Dec. 14, when 20-year-old gunman Adam Lanza shot his way into the school and opened fire, killing 26 before turning a gun on himself. Lanza also killed his mother in their Newtown home before going on the rampage, one of the deadliest in U.S. history.
"I want parents and families enduring the loss of their precious children to know their loved ones are foremost in our hearts and minds as we move forward," Page wrote. "We recognize your needs are paramount in our preparations and planning. Your strength and compassion has been, and will continue to be an inspiration to me and countless others as we work to honor the memory of your precious children and our beloved staff."

We're proud that over one million Californians support the right to know what we eat and feed our families - but in order for Proposition 37 to pass in November, we need your help.
No matter where you are in the state or the country, you can be part of this historic campaign by volunteering today.
There are so many ways to help – from inviting your friends to join us, hosting a house party, spreading the word at work, school or church, making phone calls, sending emails and many other ways. Will you join the nearly 10,000 Californians who have already taken the extra step of signing up to volunteer?
Will you volunteer?

Good luck getting this started in Florida. I am learning about how I can incorporate in Arizona so I can set up a fund raising account. Looks like the best bet in ARizona is to set up as a 501 © (4) corporation. I may also set up as a LLC if I can do that as a nonprofit. Next week I hopefully will talk with an individual who set her campaign up in the same way to raise funds to pass a different initiative. Good luck. I also have some research on GMO's if you want it. If so send me and email address

McGinn labeled 'Canuck hunter' by Vancouver newspaper
November 27, 2011, 1:15 pm
Jamie McGinn has a history of knocking Vancouver Canuck players out of games. (AP)
SAN JOSE – Another one of the Vancouver Canucks is hurting following a collision with the Sharks' Jamie McGinn.
McGinn hit Alexander Edler with a clean shoulder late in the second period of San Jose's 3-2 loss to the Canucks on Saturday night at HP Pavilion. Edler left the game with what looked like an injured shoulder.
McGinn was already not a favorite in Vancouver, after hurting Canucks defensemen Christian Ehrhoff and Aaron Rome in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals last May, causing them both to miss the remainder of that series. That may be why the Vancouver Sun labeled him as a "Canuck hunter" in its Sunday edition.
The Sun's Iain Macintyre writes:
Edler was hit hard shoulder-to-shoulder by Jamie McGinn in a race to the puck near the corner.
Edler dropped his stick, skated immediately to the bench and was hunched over in obvious discomfort in the final minute of the second period. He did not return for the third period.
"Just got a big hit there at the end of the second period," Vigneault said. "Upper body, and he'll be re-evaluated tomorrow."
There was nothing dirty about the hit, which McGinn talked about after Sharks practice on Sunday.
"I'm just finishing my checks. I never want anyone to get hurt, and I try and play a real clean game," he said. "I think it was one of those ones where we're both just running into each other. I didn't realize he was hurt after; I just kind of kept going. It's never a good thing when someone goes out to injury, but that's just the way I play. I just try and play hard-nosed."
McGinn sensed a carryover effect from the playoffs, as the teams were meeting for the first time since the Canucks ended the Sharks' season.
"It kind of continued on from playoffs. It was a physical game and a high-paced game. We knew we were going to get their best, and they played real well. I thought we were really solid. We fixed up some things we wanted to fix. The outcome wasn't what we wanted, but the good thing is it's a long season and we get to hop right back on it [Monday in Los Angeles] and continue to do the right things again."
Edler is Vancouver's leading scorer on defense with three goals and 13 assists for 16 points.

monsta strolls to the end of the walkway leading to his inn. He's heard that a visitor is coming into town today and he must meet this person if he is to ever keep his little establishment in business.
Times have been hard for the Sleeping Monster Inn ever since that new place opened up on the other side of town, and monsta's business helps keep this side of town from resorting to thievery, begging, and the like. In fact, although monsta's inn is small in comparison to the others in the land, it is still bigger than all but the fanciest of inns in the neighboring territories. He grew up here. Learning how to operate and maintain the place from his father.
Well, technically the man wasn't his father, but monsta only saw him as just that.
His father taught him ethics, morals, and how your own pride should come second to someone else's dignity. This is the reason monsta employs the would-be beggars to work at the inn, as well as feeds them, and clothes them.
Unfortunately, monsta's left leg is currently injured, so a stroll into town is going to take him a lot longer than it normally would. He only hopes he can meet the mystery man before he leaves.

THE PRACTICE: Reshaping the Curriculum - A reshaped curriculum is culturally responsive to the background of students.
To reshape curriculum so that it becomes culturally responsive requires that the changes challenge students to develop higher-order knowledge and skills (Villegas, 1991). Ismat Abdal-Haqq (1994) states that "Curriculum that is culturally responsive capitalizes on students' cultural backgrounds rather than attempting to override or negate them."
According to researchers, an effective, culturally responsive curriculum would encompass the following characteristics:

When we first saw [Chris Paget]'s cloning video, our reaction was pretty 'meh'. We'd seen RFID cloning before and the Mifare crack was probably the last time RFID was actually interesting. His ShmooCon presentation, embedded above, caught us completely off-guard. It's very informative; we highly recommend it.

Counterfeit $100 Bills Being Used in Snyder
By: Snyder Daily News
Updated: April 13, 2012
The bills in question are the old $100 bill design and are manufactured using $5 bills.
The bills escape discovery because counterfeit markers, which businesses use to detect phony bills, show the money as being legitimate, since they are altered forms of legal tender.
The Snyder police have investigated three uses of the bills this month -- at Stripes, Western Auto and United Supermarkets.
Police Chief Terry Luecke said the counterfeiters are washing the ink from the $5 bills and reprinting them.
"They look good. At first glance, it looks like an older $100 bill," said Luecke. "It is becoming more common and everyone needs to pay attention to what they are receiving."
There are two ways to determine if the bills are phony.
The first is to hold the bill up to a black light or another light source, where a watermark of Abraham Lincoln's face is visible. There also is a security stripe that denotes the value of the bill.
The second is to check the serial numbers. If they are the same on more than one bill, the bills are not legitimate, since the counterfeiters are using the same $100 bill, and serial number, for printing.
Luecke said that the cases are being investigated, but he is not sure if the phony money is being produced in Snyder. He also said that some customers may be unaware that they are passing false cash.
"It's hard to say. These bills may be in circulation and we can't really pin it on one person," he said. "Some of them have been going through the banks. We have no idea where they are made, but it's a common problem right now."
Luecke said that any merchant who suspects they have received a fake bill should contact police immediately, especially if the customer is still on the premises.
Anyone who comes into possession of a counterfeit bill must turn it over to law enforcement, which will then file a report and turn the case over to the Secret Service office in Lubbock.
Luecke said the Snyder police will be in contact with the Secret Service today and that the investigation will continue. Conviction for counterfeiting carries a punishment of up to 15 years in federal prison.

Annexation to Olds better than new MDP: developers
Annexation to the Town of Olds would be a better option than remaining part of Mountain View County under the proposed new Municipal Development Plan, the developers of Netook Crossing told council last week.
Presenting their objections at Wednesday's public hearings on the proposed MDP, the Netook development team criticized the county's consultation process for lacking "true dialogue" and defended their plans for nodal residential development on the west side of Highway 2/27.
Greg Brown, lead planning consultant for the project, said the developers' preferred option would be for council to reinstate the higher densities and commitment to piped services approved in past agreements.
"If not we recommend that council commence the annexation process with the Town of Olds," Brown said.
"A majority of landowners at Netook would support annexation" if council does not amend the proposed MDP, he added.
Asked by Div. 7 Coun. Al Kemmere for clarification, Netook community liaison Kim Smith said she was surprised by the unanimity of landowners on the question.
"We have letters from every landowner supporting annexation," Smith said, after earlier presenting 54 letters of support representing 65 properties in the area.
Asked if the landowners had been informed about the potential costs of annexation, Smith said no.
"We felt it was premature to talk to residents about it," Brown said.
"What I think the residents are telling us is they supported the original vision."
Neuroese Properties representative Herb Styles, who had previously warned council that the developers would not rule out legal action, also said annexation "could be" an option.
During a separate presentation, resident Ron Vogel said annexation should be considered since "neither I nor a lot of other taxpayers want the county to … pay for a town outside Olds."
Vogel said placing the Highway 2/27 area under a Direct Control designation is not the answer.
"A future council could increase the density and we would be in the town business."
Several presenters urged council to stick to the lower densities outlined in the proposed MDP.
While the Netook developers complained of council acting "unilaterally" to set densities and other provisions in the new plan, Steve Algra commended it for doing so. The previous council approved the original concept, "but I don't believe council was acting in the best interests of the county," Algra said.
Jim Thain said he was among county residents who "would not tolerate the MDP that was put in front of us," adding that one reason so many councillors were replaced in the last election was because "the MDP didn't have the support of the people."
Thain also noted that the Netook developers had hired "a staff member from the old administration" – former planning manager Nathan Petherick – to assist them with their land-use applications.
"I'm really surprised to see decisions made by past council and administration are being brought forward at this time," Thain said.
Lloyd Quantz also commended the present council's approach and said it was in lockstep with the majority.
"If you didn't act in the manner you have, you'd be replaced in a heartbeat," Quantz said.
When Quantz, who has been critical of the Netook project in published letters to the editor, made a reference to "a threatening environment," Div. 6 Coun. Paddy Munro asked Quantz if he had been threatened.
"Yeah, I have been," Quantz said, adding that threats of legal action against the county were also inappropriate.
"For me I can't go any further than that," Quantz said.
Sandy Jones, who lives north of the Olds Golf Club, said she approved of the "significant changes" in the new plan.
"I think overall growth is beneficial … but we must ensure there is responsible growth and phased growth," Jones said, identifying transportation and water as vital services.
Former Div. 6 councillor Liz Negropontes said she had never been in favour of the Highway 2/27 concept.
"We had an administration that talked us into it, said it was great. I asked for the numbers but never got the numbers. Today we've got a lot of assumptions … Are we going to trust that the developers are going to do the right thing?" Negropontes said.
Former council candidate Michael Radford noted some people had a vested interest in the Netook project and asked whether council should "continue with a bad deal if there's other options available on the table."
Former candidate Ken Heck registered his strong objection to the MDP, saying the present council has undermined the county's "reputation as a fair and honest place to do business" and "decimated the professional planning team" hired under the previous administration.
By not honouring past commitments, "council is saying honesty, integrity and fairness have no place in the county," Heck said.
"I believe the way this plan has been implemented has been a disaster."
"Do you believe the majority of the ratepayers supported that vision?" Div. 1 Coun. Kevin Good asked.
"Yes I do," Heck said.
Peter Lacey, representing Prodev, whose business park is situated on the south side of Highway 27, said he supported council listening to the public by drawing up a new MDP and changing the rules for land use. The problem, he said, is that significant dollars were spent under the old rules.
"Whenever there has been significant dollars spent, it's a difficult situation … I've got $11 million invested in this project," Lacey said.
"We can't just disregard previous agreements. Rules change, I understand that. But agreements are in place. Let's have a plan to work together, so the county doesn't lose money and the developers don't lose money."
Changes in the current draft of the MDP "will probably eliminate the economic viability of having the quarter serviced," Lacey said.
More than 80 people attended the public hearing, which is scheduled to resume this Wednesday.

Riverbay closes in Williston Park
This past Saturday night, the final steamed lobster was served at Riverbay, a longtime seafood destination on Willis Avenue in Williston Park. The restaurant is now part of local history.
Riverbay's owner, Dean Poll, who also owns The Boathouse in Central Park, said he is currently too busy in Manhattan to think about reprising Riverbay elsewhere, but, he added, "If I found the right property, I would consider it."
Poll has leased the property to TD Bank, which will open a branch with a drive-through lane. "Maybe we could open a fast food window there," he quipped.
Grab a lobster roll while you make a cash withdrawal? Poll may be onto something.

Other than the reserve portion going to the Federal Reserve (it can also be kept at the bank itself or at the Fed or some combination of both) this IS how it works.Repeatedly posting this fictional account does not make it any more accurate.
I deposit $100. I no longer have $100- the bank does. They give me a promise to pay later which is considered a liability for the bank. With a ten percent reserve requirement, the bank can loan out up to $90 of that. Somebody will owe them the $90 so that is counted as an asset and the $10 on reserve is an asset. Now they have $10 and the borrower has $90. If that person A does not need the money at that moment, he can deposit his $90 with the bank. He no longer has $90 but a promise from the bank that they will pay him back his $90 later. On this deposit, the bank can loan out $81 and has to keep $9. Now the bank has $11 and person B has $89. Everybody else has a promise to be paid back.
Now if I want my $100 back, the bank has to get that money from someplace. They can't make it from nothing. They can get money from a new depositor or from another bank which may have more reserves on hand than required for the amount of loans outstanding or they can borrow from the Federal Reserve until they can attract or borrow more money from some place else.
What has also happend is that the bank no longer has the $100 deposit they needed to be allowed to have that $90 loan out. They have to keep $10 on hand in reserves to keep that loan out so they also have to get another $10 for reserves.
