May 28, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Anyone used or tried compression socks ? I use them and like them but have not found any research. The compression is measured by a number. It is critical that the ankle compression be higher than the calf compression to drive the blood out of the lower leg. The strongest for diabetics are rated 20 to 30. I bought 2 pairs from Rawlings designed for baseball rated at 15 to 20 although the site doesn't say that and the rep couldn't answer my question. I know the rating based on the packaging. Although it is subjective, I think I get less swelling and faster recovery, but it might all be in my head. I also wear compression shorts (Bike 7625) and wear compression tops after I play and think they help. Besides socks you can buy compression calf sleeves which are like elbow sleeves. If interested I suggest you call Alan who posts here because I know he sells his favored brand and is far more knowledgeable than I. He is a triathlete besides being a softball guru and the triathletes all use compression wear. |
May 20, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: Illegal bat This makes no sense. Ask for an explanation and also ask for a list of banned bats. Ask the guy who first told you it was ok why it now isn't. My guess is that they may ban all endloaded, but I have never heard of a league doing that. Appeal the ruling to the pres. of league. Weird?? |
May 18, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior bat 1 year warranty I have no vested interest here. Bought a maxload last year from them at great price for another guy. They sell many items, have been on ebay since 2005, have a 99.8% rating. The listing includes the following: VMInnovations is proud to offer you the Miken Ultra II Maxload SSUSA Slowpitch Softball Bat. Great for slowpitch softball players everywhere. The bat is approved for play by the SSUSA. Featuring a 2 1/4" barrel, and at 34" long and 28oz its the perfect bat. We are an authorized Miken dealer, selling new warranted products. Caveat emptor. |
May 17, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior bat 1 year warranty I found this in the item description at the end: VMInnovations is proud to offer you the Miken Ultra II Maxload SSUSA Slowpitch Softball Bat. Great for slowpitch softball players everywhere. The bat is approved for play by the SSUSA. Featuring a 2 1/4" barrel, and at 34" long and 28oz its the perfect bat. We are an authorized Miken dealer, selling new warranted products. Brand New Miken Ultra II Maxload SSUSA Two-Piece Slowpitch Softball Bat SPU2M (2-1/4) Barrel, 34"/28oz! They claim they are authorized. I note they only sell Miken Softball bats. If they don't confirm back in writing I wouldn't buy. Use the Ebay message system. Most sellers on Ebay are super honorable because bad responses get them kicked off Ebay. |
May 17, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior bat 1 year warranty Yes, but if you call them they will probably confirm as they did on a Maxload I bought from them. But I would confirm in writing first from them. |
May 16, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: Senior bat 1 year warranty I found this on ebay and for 190 they say there is a 1 year warranty with a 60 days money back guarantee. It looks like a big co: MIKEN Ultra II Maxload 2-Piece SSUSA SPU2M (-6) Slowpitch Softball Bat -34"/28oz 1 YEAR WARRANTY! BRAND NEW! TRIAD TECH! 2-1/4" BARREL! |
May 14, 2013 HJ | Topic: Website comments Discussion: GSC SENIOR BAT IN RENO Ed, this is the best thread yet why this might be the real deal and also why it is prudent to wait until you and other trsted professionals field test the final approved bat. |
May 14, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: What does a rattle mean Thank you Ed. |
May 13, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: What does a rattle mean My balanced Reebok Melee Legend Senior Bat has developed "rattles". There are definitely things rattling around in there. I know bats are often sold with the words rattle free so I assume it is not good. Does anyone really know what it means and is the bat about to crack?? |
May 13, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: NEW COMBAT DIRTY Thank you Swing. Life is strange. Went to a balanced bat for consistency and have been inconsistent. Today was too cold for senior bats so used my old combat end loaded virus- 2 hits. I am going to stick with the Virus and stop thinking. Like one said about Mike Schmidt, I would probably hit better after a lobotomy. Thanks again. |
May 11, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: NEW COMBAT DIRTY Swing, thank you. I wish I had a reason like work and time-consuming distractions, but everything is aligned correctly and I still am not making consistent contact. Health is fine, I guess I just don't have it. |
May 10, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: SSUSA approved bats vs. USSSA and ASA Caveat: older senior bats might have the 1.20 stamp. That was to the older way of testing and those bats would be illegal in your league which bans senior bats. As to your original question respecting the Reebok, The label "Senior Softball" is irrelevant. If it says 1.21 it must be a senior bat. Additionally, any bat labeled SSUSA which doesn't have an ASA or USSSA label is in all likelihood a Senior BAT. |
May 10, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: NEW COMBAT DIRTY Swing, what are you doing to get back on your game. |
May 3, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: GSC Bat approved for Senior Softball Avis, I just checked your profile and see you bought from a reputable guy. Don't do anything to the bat. Call Alan. |
May 3, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: GSC Bat approved for Senior Softball Avis, it is a known problem with Combats that has been discussed here. You can search this site for specific advice. If bought through an authorized seller and it occurs very prematurely, you can sometimes get an authorization to send to Combat for a fix. Additionally there are thread her which tell exactly how to fix it- it involves using a boat adhesive which adheres well and has a little give so it doesn't crack and fail. |
April 30, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Public Forum VS Anonymity The issue isn't whether the poster think he is credible or not, it is whether the reader of the post think he is credible. An anonymous poster raises questions of credibility but that doesn't mean the post should automatically be totally discounted. A series of posts by an individual helps judge credibility; likewise, a new anonymous poster with strong views should signal caution. |
April 30, 2013 HJ | Topic: Bats Discussion: P413 revisited A senior bat with a 1 year warranty sounds very promising if the performance is reasonable whatever that means. Ed, have you personally tried that bat and if so what are your thoughts? Does it come only in balanced form and does it swing light or heavy? Is production in the US? I think answers to these questions would be helpful to all. Thank you. |
April 26, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: The First 20 Minutes-Surprising Science Reveals Exercise Better Train Smarter Live Longer Those who follow this site know I always try to find the science behind what we do to see if it makes sense. I just finished the above book by Gretchen Reynolds and heartily recommend it. It busts many myths and is very thought provoking. The following is a review found on Amazon which explains a lot of what is in the book. The book can be bought very cheaply now: Very good book. The style is a little wordy for me. Similar to 'The Power of Yoga', I'd have preferred to have more bullet points and less history of scientific discoveries. Therefore, I summarized the key points myself: 1) Inactivity is the greatest public health threat of this century. A great deal of the physical effects that we once thought were caused by aging are actually the results of inactivity. 2) Although 'Health' and 'Fitness' are often automatically joined together, they are different things. 'Health' is a slippery term, often defined by its absence (it's 'unhealthy' to have high LDL cholesterol, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, a wide waist or actuall illnesses, from cold to cancer). Physical 'Fitness' refers to cardiovascular or cardiorrespiratory fitness(includes measures of lung function). It is a measure of how efficiently you transport oxygen to laboring muscles to maintain movement. A fit person has a robust heart, strong lungs and sturdy muscles. But it doesn't mean he is 'healthy' (he can still have high cholesterol or ulcers). 3) How little activity can people get away with? The best available science indicates that, in order to improve your health, you should walk or work out lightly for 150 minutes a week. You can split them almost any way you want. 30 minutes a day can be split in 3 walks of 10' each. Other option is to do 75 weekly minutes of more vigorous aerobic exercise plus weight training twice a week. 4) Almost all of the mortality reductions are due to the first 20 minutes of exercise, which drops your risk of premature death by 20%. (If you triple that minimum level, you drop your risk of premature rate further, but only by another 4%). However, this is true if you're looking for health benefits, but not if your objective is fitness. 5) If your objective is to improve fitness and performance, you must overload the muscoloskeletal and cardiovascular systems, i.e.: you will have to push your body somewhat, increasing the intensity or frequency of your usual workouts. Aerobic exercise (endurance) is the wellspring of fitness and may be the single most important determinant of how long you live. 6) Exercise has been endurance-centric for quite some time, but now there is evidence strength training is also important. It changes the dynamics of aging by combating loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) and building bone, which we start losing at middle age. Squats are considered by some scientists the single best exercise. And Yoga (or Pilates and its variations) have been shown to prompt muscular remodeling almost as readily as working with weight machines does. 7) The benefits of exercise appear to be curvilinear: they rise precipitously when you first start exercising, level off as you do more and, at some point, drop if you overdo things (although when the break point occurs differs by person). And then you may develop injuries and need to stop for a while. But the good news is that reductions in exercise don't have to strip you of your hard-won health and fitness gains as long as you don't stop completely (once a week seems to be enough until you can get back on track). 8) Sitting adversely affects the health of even the well-exercised. Even if you exercise one hour a day, it does not counteract the ill effects of sitting for the rest of the day. It's important to break up the long hours of sitting, even if it's for a two-minute stroll. This was probably the most shocking discovery for me, who felt very virtuous by exercising every morning before my one hour drive to work followed by 8 hours sitting on a chair! 9) Exercise by itself is pretty useless for weight loss since, as a species, we're astonishingly efficient at compensating for the loss of calories. It was discovered that, for example, people relying on exercising to burn out calories sometimes, without deliberate intent, begin moving less during the rest of the day. The body, and especially in the case of women, also has hormonal mechanisms to maintain body fat, such as recalibrating the appetite and increasing the desire to eat after exercise, as well as affecting the rate at which the body burns fuel (acylated ghrelin, leptin and insulin are the key hormones intervening in the process). 10) However, although exercise doesn't aid much in weight loss, it is helpful in weight control or maintenance in the long term (even brisk walking). Exercise not also helps to reduce weight regain but to keep visceral or abdominal fats in check. (They contribute to metabolic problems, diabetes and heart disease). 11) If you want to lose weight: work out before breakfast and include eggs in your breakfast. Emerging evidence also suggests that, unlike bouts of moderate-vigorous exercise, low-intensity ambulation, standing, etc. may contribute to daily energy expenditure without triggering the caloric compensation effect. Just get rid of your chair! 12) Exercise helps to get better brainpower, pushing the onset of dementia by several years. It has a prophylactic effect against the buildup of anger and helps handle stress. It speeds the brain's production of serotonin alleviating anxiety and depression. And it has great influence on kids' brains, improving test scores and IQ. People who have been active in their twenties, no matter what their activity levels are now, have longer telomeres, a reliable marker of younger cell age. (Telomeres are the minuscule protective caps at the end of the DNA strands, often compared to the tips of shoelaces and serving the same purpose: to prevent fraying and tattering). Those points summarize my key takeaways from the book. It's also interesting that the author questions some myths, such as the need for stretching and warming up, the benefits of massage (she says it actually impairs the removal of lactic acid) or immersing in ice to ease muscle soreness. There is no correlation at all between wearing the proper running shoes and avoiding injury. You don't need special food or drinks: real food is fine and chocolate milk is the best post workout drink. Vitamins not only are not helpful, but they may undercut the exercise's benefits (since they prevent the induction of molecular regulators of insulin sensitivity and endogenous antioxidant defense - the body 'decided' it wasn't needed). The best remedy for muscle cramps is pickle juice! And, finally, avoid over drinking: you don't need to stay ahead of your thirst. If you're thirsty, drink. If not, you're sufficiently hydrated. Hyponatremia (water intoxication) is what causes deaths at marathons, not dehydration. Note From HJ: She also explains the benefits of interval training. |
April 18, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Public Forum VS Anonymity OH Navy, IMO you did nothing wrong and people questioning your credibility did nothing wrong. It is important that we share opinions on equipment, how else can we help others to make the right choice and avoid the wrong choice. Likewise, some have a commercial interest so their posts should be scrutinized to be sure they are not just pushing a product for gain. I think this site served many well by pointing out the dead Mikens which probably pushed Miken to do the right thing for many even with an "unwarranted" bat. |
April 16, 2013 HJ | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Combat Twilight bat users Sometimes for no apparent reason good bats go on sale. Perhaps your bigger point is that if money is an issue (I assume it is for most) don't buy a new untested bat and wait until it has been around a bit before jumping in. Of course, that doesn't always works. The red Miken was bad for awhile after they changed the testing regime and Miken made some bad bats before correcting it. |

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Shows dried pineapple, honey, pear, caramel and piecrust aromas. Full-bodied and very sweet, with spice, coconut, tropical fruit and apple tart flavors. Long and dense, yet lively. Best after 2013."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Straight down the line, this wine shows fruit and acidity. The tannins are relatively soft while the fruit is forward. Blackberries, coffee and licorice notes all come together."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "As I have consistently written in the past, this limited production cuvee, from a 12-acre site that contains a parcel of extremely old vines, 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, is meant to last three decades or more. Tasting like a liqueur of rocks interwoven with creme de cassis, espresso roast,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The minerality and stoniness really comes through on the nose of this Rieussec, more than the 2007.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Chocolate, espresso roast, plum, fig, and black currant aromas are followed by a dense, rich, full-bodied Pomerol displaying superb purity, elegance, and noticeable but ripe tannin.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Midnight oil? Dense black purple to the rim, the 2009 Lascombes has enormous concentration, with loads of graphite, blackberry, and blueberry notes as well as hints of pen ink and truffle.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Under the administration of Catherine Pere-Verge, Le Gay has become a serious, super-concentrated, potentially long-lived Pomerol.

Cellar/Tasting Notes This masculine-styled Pomerol exhibits notes of iron, earth, vitamins, black cherries, and blackberries.

GOVERNOR PROMOTES LAKE ERIE TOURISM AND SPORT FISHING AT ANNUAL "FISH OHIO DAY" Event spotlights the lake's role in attracting visitors
PORT CLINTON, OH – Governor Ted Strickland today spent a successful morning on the waters of Lake Erie during the 30th annual Fish Ohio Day. The governor, members of the media, representatives of the tourism industry, conservation leaders and wildlife officials used the outing to focus attention on the lake's excellent boating and fishing opportunities, which make it one of the Midwest's premier tourism destinations.
The group of 18 charter boats fished the lake's Western Basin, catching about 100 Lake Erie walleye.
"Every time I visit these waters I am left in awe of the amazing resource that we Ohioans have at our doorstep," Strickland said. "From Toledo to Conneaut, I invite everyone to explore Ohio's north coast and discover how conservation, business and recreation come together to create a world-class place to live, work and play."
Following the morning's fishing trip, Strickland recognized the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife's commitment to strengthen fishing opportunities for walleye, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and steelhead in the state. As a result of the 2003 spawning class, Ohio anglers have enjoyed some of the best walleye fishing in the Midwest in recent years. Those fish now average more than 20 inches in length. And more good fishing is on the way due to an excellent 2007 hatch, according to ODNR fisheries biologists.
The governor also applauded the combined efforts of the ODNR divisions of Wildlife and Watercraft for improving public boating access to Lake Erie and Ohio's inland waterways.
One of the most significant Lake Erie boating-access points under development is the marina at Middle Bass Island State Park. A master plan for a $4 million redevelopment of the area includes an expanded and reconfigured harbor with up to 340 boat slips, a boat launch ramp, a new entrance channel from the lake and other amenities. About 250 docks are expected to be in operation by the start of the 2009 recreational season. Once completed, the marina will provide much-needed dockage for visiting boaters in the Western Basin, contributing significantly to tourism in the area.
Nearly 20-acres of land at the mouth of the Huron River was purchased in 2006 by the ODNR for $3.25 million. The state will build a four-lane boat ramp and courtesy docks on southern half of the property, filling a void in public access between Sandusky and Vermilion. The northern half of the property was deeded to the City of Huron for economic development that could include greenspace, restaurants, shops and more.
Tourism is Ohio's third-largest industry, generating $38 billion annually. The seven counties along Lake Erie account for nearly a third of that dollar amount. About 146,800 people are employed in tourism-related businesses along the lake. Lake Erie tourism also generates $386 million in state tax revenue and $229 million in local taxes.

With vitality and enthusiasm, the women of the Pasadena Art Alliance have raised millions of dollars to support contemporary visual art in Southern California. Since 1955, this organization has been unwavering in its purpose yet ever flexible in seeking innovative ways to fulfill its mission. Unique in its independence, not associated with any group or art institution, it is open to new artistic expressions and concepts, often championing projects that might not be funded by traditional methods.
The PAA continues to impress the Southern California arts community with its new ideas in fund raising. The biennial art auction features the donated works of over a hundred artists. A collaborative photography exhibit gives art students opportunities to create and exhibit commissioned portraits. And the legendary Treasure Sale speaks for itself.
All monies raised go directly to the very heart of the Art Alliance: the grants program. The grants committee studies each written request, makes site visits and then makes thoughtful decisions about which proposals to fund. Funds are granted to established as well as unconventional institutions in order to underwrite exhibitions, sponsor programs or support arts education.With each grant, the organization hopes to encourage the creativity of the human spirit and to enrich the cultural life of the entire community.
Announcing SNAP PLUS, Provocative Portraits 3.0! This year's Pasadena Art Alliance fundraiser will be a collaboration with Art Center College of Design advanced photography students PLUS the illustration department to create one-of-a-kind portraits that will be unveiled at the May 11, 2013 event. Our portrait patrons will commission their portraits (either photo or illustration) indicating their desired subject matter, but leave the creativity up to the students. This is the third version of SNAP; the first was held in 2003 and SNAP, too in 2009. Both were highly successful events and the excitement is building for the next edition! View examples of portraits from SNAP, too.
This year's event will take place on Chung King Road in historic Chinatown / LA on Saturday, May 11, 2013. In addition to the portrait exhibition that will take place among the galleries, plenty of food and drink, music, entertainment and a portrait themed live auction and opportunity drawing will all be part of the event.

Incontinentia Pigmenti OverviewIncontinentia pigmenti, sometimes referred to as IP or Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome, is an unusual inherited disorder of skin pigmentation that is associated with abnormalities of the skin (100% of affected people), teeth (90% of affected people), bones (40% of affected people), brain or spinal cord (40% of affected people), and eyes (35% of affected people). The exact cause of IP is not yet known. Incontinentia pigmenti is often diagnosed in affected people when they are newborns because of the presence of a characteristic rash. The skin changes often disappear with time, but an evaluation for nervous system and eye disturbances must be promptly initiated. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Incontinentia Pigmenti

Both the DeMarini M2M and the DeMarini CF5 are great bats and will be good for both power and contact hitters.

New for 2013! The DeMarini M2M is True American Muscle. Made in the USA, the M2M is all-alloy with no forgiveness. It's built for power, durability, and players that love to feel the ball all the way through the bat. This two-piece full-metal design is as stiff of a bat as they come; producing as much power as a metal bat possibly can. We're not talking about just any metal though. We're talking about DeMarini's new X10 Alloy. X10 features a proprietary blend of alloy agents and is finely tuned to give the M2M the thinnest, lightest, and strongest barrel walls possible. With a big, aggressive Longbarrel, the M2M is graced with one of the largest hitting surfaces (and sweetspots!) in the game today! The sweetspot is even further enhanced with Half and Half Technology that allows the barrel to produce a burst of ball-launching energy every time contact is made. Capped with an N2M End Cap that is scientifically tuned to absorb vibration, the M2M is one bat that will not disappoint. DeMarini: Born Hardcore! The M2M is approved for play in Little League, Babe Ruth, Dixie, Pony, AABC, and USSSA. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

Filled with extraordinary rock formations, the Chiricahua National Monument in southeastern Arizona is a wonder to behold.
The word "Chiricahua" may be derived from the Opata Indian word for turkey—wild turkeys are common in the area.
Chiricahua Mountains is designated by the American Bird Conservancy as a Globally Important Bird Area.
With 12,000 acres of shapely hoodoos and weird rock formations, Chiricahua National Monument boasts fantastic hikes, scenic lookouts, and the historic Faraway Ranch. The visitor center is loaded with information on the wildlife, birds, geology, and history of the area.
A favorite Chiricahua experience is driving to the top of the winding, eight-mile-long main road, Bonita Canyon Drive, which is flanked with overgrown trees and beautiful scenery.
Twenty seven million years ago a massive volcanic eruption shook this land. One thousand times greater than the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens, the Turkey Creek Caldera eruption eventually laid down 2,000 feet of highly silicious ash and pumice. This mixture fused into a rock called rhyolitic tuff.
Wind, water, ice, and time sculpted the solid mass into huge towers and further shaped them by erosion into the spires and the unusual rock formations we admire today.
Named "Land of the Standing-up Rocks" by the Apaches, this ragged landscape of tall Rhyolite pinnacles and enormous balancing rocks had been populated by nomadic tribes for centuries—but it wasn't until battles between the U.S. Army and the Apache Nation in the mid-1800s that most Americans were even aware of this unusual country.
Those battles—which pitted soldiers against warriors led by the legendary chief, Cochise, and, later, Geronimo—have been replayed in countless novels and movies for more than 100 years, usually from the view point of the victor.
Sometimes lost is the fact that the Chiricahua Apaches initially lived in peace with the new-comers, even allowing the famous Butterfield Overland Stage route to pass through their mountains and obtain water, a scarce and precious resource.
It wasn't until 1861 that Cochise and his tribe—blamed for atrocities that were actually committed by another tribe from the north—began the fight that brought the fledgling Arizona territory to a near standstill.
Stagecoaches were attacked; towns, ranches, and mines were abandoned after raids. Even the small military outpost of Tucson felt threatened. Retaliation on both sides continued through the years until the surrender of Geronimo in 1886 and the removal of the Apaches from their beloved Chiricahuas.
Chiricahua National Monument is located 35 miles southeast of Willcox on Highways 186 and 181.
Note: Due to extreme fire danger and concern for public safety, portions of Chiricahua National Monument will be under fire restrictions starting on Monday, May 7, 2012.
Did You Know?
The Chiricahua Mountains are a crossroads for plants and animals from four ecosystems; the Rocky Mountains to the north, Mexico's Sierra Madre Mountains to the south, the Sonoran and Chihuahuan Deserts.
Worth Pondering…
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
—John Muir

How well a child reads at the end of first grade predicts how well he or she will read in later grades, graduation rates and even income level as an adult. It's important that a preschool recognizes this and helps children to get this important skill started by working on early reading skills. A good thing to remember is that great preschools not only help children advance beyond age norms for things like early reading and early math, but they also nurture children who are behind so they can catch up.
How can you tell if these basics are covered? Look for letter and number materials in the classroom. The environment can be very telling. Look for a well-stocked bookcase, the alphabet up on the walls, tracing paper, maps, clocks, and puzzles. And ask the teachers and director when you take your tour — most preschools are happy to share their philosophies on early literacy and math.

You know how it is. You read a review of a bike, online or in a magazine, and you think 'I want one of those!' Trouble is, if you're like me, then the bikes are usually not 'mainstream' machines, and sourcing the right bike in the right spec at the right price can be tricky. Enter 'Triton Cycles'. I had set my heart on an all steel, All-City 'Space Horse' after reading a magazine review. It looked just the bike I needed for next year's LeJog, and for generally mashing around.

BRIGHTON - James "Deak" Worth of Island Pond recently received an award for 50 years of service as a volunteer firefighter for the town of Brighton. Worth received a plaque and a $100 gift certificate for the Eastside Restaurant from Brighton Chief Richard Hannux. In years past, Worth has served as chief, but at this time he is "just a firefighter." Worth said he began serving the department as a 16-year-old and joined the fire department because he "could get out of school when the alarm blew."
BRIGHTON - Aaron Lumbra of Georgia, VT and his hunting partner Mark Bechard of Swanton took down a 530 pound cow moose estimated to be about three years old last Tuesday afternoon about 2:45 p.m. "It was 9 p.m. before we got back to camp in Averill with it and cracked open our first celebration beer," said Aaron. The men had been hunting in E1 (Northern Essex County) area since Saturday and said hunting in the rain for three days was tough.
WASHINGTON – Vermont's congressional delegation – Sens. Patrick Leahy and Bernie Sanders and Rep. Peter Welch – and Gov. Peter Shumlin announced that over $200,000 in Northern Border Regional Commission (NBRC) funds will go to support two economic development projects in Lyndon and Brighton. The town of Brighton will receive $78,190 to construct a new 2,100 foot walking path along a section of Island Pond Lake, connecting it to the downtown area. This project resulted from a year-long study aimed at enhancing tourism and recreation in the community.
NEWPORT CITY – Despite previous reports, enrollment in the North Country Supervisory District is not as gloomy as previously thought. Last week Superintendent Robert Kern reported a decrease in student enrollment. However, figures printed earlier this week indicate that this is not necessarily the case. "Enrollment changes from day to day," Kern said on Wednesday. Figures in late August and early September indicated numbers were down. "When we went back and looked at the most recent numbers, it looks like we increased almost one percent."
BARRE – Coventry Town Clerk Cynthia Diaz will serve no prison time for failure to file tax returns. Diaz entered a plea of guilty to two misdemeanor charges in Washington District Court on Wednesday. The state dismissed eight felony counts of failure to pay or file tax returns greater than $500 and six counts of filing false or fraudulent returns. Diaz was sentenced to 15 days to six months, all suspended. She was placed on probation, will have to perform 100 hours of community service and file truthfully and correctly tax returns for 2003 through 2009.Â
NEWPORT, VT - Area activists came out in the cold Wednesday in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement that is spreading across the United States. The protest seeks to call attention to the influence of big money on Washington politics and has drawn supporters from all political persuasions. Many have complained that the federal government is spending tax dollars bailing out big businesses and "too big to fail" financial institutions while the working class is left economically stranded and paying the bill.
DERBY, VT - The Coutts Moriarty Summer Camp's new Education Lodge and Dining Hall is under construction at the upper camp level. A foundation has been poured and workers are busy moving dirt. Donations are still being accepted to help with the project. Coutts Camp has merged with non-profit, Siskin Ecological Adventures and provides 500 educational programs to over 10,000 school children each year.
ALBANY, VT - Sometime last weekend, two pickup trucks vandalized the ballpark in Albany Village. Deep tire marks are shown here with tracks leading all around the park. The damage is believed to be in the thousands of dollars to repair. Although there are suspects, the Vermont State Police in Derby are investigating the incident and request your help. Please call 334-8881 with any information that may help catch the perpetrators.
DERBY - The Derby Selectboard unanimously decided to sign a document addressed to the Public Service Board (PSB) requesting that they hold hearings on the Vermont Electric Company (VELCO) statewide radio project. Beula- Jean Shattuck was absent from the meeting Monday evening. The hope, according to selectboard member Karen Jenne, is that the hearings are held locally for public comment. The motion to sign the document came with some controversy and negotiations. Jenne presented the letter to the board, which included the phrase, "The town wishes to comment further."
NEWPORT CITY – For much of the year, Tony Pomerleau is known for his business ventures in the forms of commercial real estate. During the holiday season, however, people call him Santa Claus. "This year, the party will be bigger and better than ever," he told the Newport Daily Express. For 30 years, Pomerleau has held a holiday party for needy families from the Burlington area. For the past three years, Pomerleau, who grew up in Newport, has hosted a similar party for families of the Northeast Kingdom.Â

As the 21st century begins, the legacies of racism, sexism, religism, homophobia, and transphobia are still with us. But at least there are no effective laws that discriminate against people on the basis of faith. The only hold outs are State of Texas and a few other states whose constitutions still have a religious requirements for holders of public office or civil service. These laws are still on the books. It is probable that they could never be removed by a plebiscite of the public because of religious intolerance. However, they have been nullified by the Federal Constitution and thus cannot be applied. Examples of religious discrimination in the U.S., 1776-1799:

by Kerry Meads

They all make their way to a cabin in the woods and create a celebration by sharing music and stories. Surprising, fun and refreshing - the performance includes a beautiful blend of original music and traditional favorites.

FDNY has 198 Engine Companies and 143 Ladder Companies, all of which are responsible for inspecting buildings within their respective administrative districts. These inspections are part of FDNY's Building Inspection Safety Program ("BISP"). In addition to ensuring Fire Code compliance at these building inspections, companies familiarize themselves with the buildings and check for violations of lawful occupancy, egress, sprinkler system and standpipe system requirements. Company officers have the flexibility to prioritize those buildings whose histories merit increased attention.
To improve the effectiveness of BISP inspections, FDNY is working with DOB to upgrade technology and improve coordination and information-sharing between the two agencies. For example, DOB now transmits construction and demolition permit information from DOB's Building Information System (BIS) to FDNY. FDNY then transmits this information to the local fire company in whose district the building site is located and whose responsibility it is to inspect. The local company inspects -- depending on building height -- every 15 or 30 days: every 15 days for buildings over 75 feet and every 30 days for buildings less than 75 feet. [Link to Rule 11-01]
These inspections continue until the completion of the construction or demolition work. Any newly-constructed building then becomes part of the local company's portfolio for regular inspections, the frequency of which will depend on what kind of building was constructed, e.g., a school or hospital will be inspected annually.
If, during the course of any inspection (not just at construction or demolition sites), a fire company identifies:
Fire Prevention inspectors have similar enforcement powers.
With respect to asbestos abatement work, DEP now notifies FDNY about certain abatement projects, e.g., abatement projects that exceed 7,500 square feet or when an abatement project affects egress from the floor or building.

Heartless Bastards: Arrow
Every single element of Heartless Bastards' sound and story — the moodily bluesy Southern rock, the reputation for tireless touring, the ever-changing lineup of backing players — is a satellite orbiting around Erika Wennerstrom, the diminutive dynamo who sings, plays guitar and writes the band's songs. Her booming, throaty, commanding presence dominates all four of Heartless Bastards' albums, the latest of which, Arrow, comes out Feb. 14.
Wennerstrom has led Heartless Bastards through many phases, as well as a move from Dayton, Ohio, to Austin. But she and her present-day compatriots, who now include an extra guitarist in Mark Nathan, straddle those sounds with ease and assurance on Arrow. While the rawness of the group's early garage rock has been smoothed out and refined on recent records, a current of white-knuckle tension still roils just beneath the surface. It may open as a lazy, knockabout shuffle, but the single "Parted Ways" builds and builds, hanging on Wennerstrom's every confidently delivered word until it blooms into a sprawling guitar solo, retreats to calmer terrain and finally accelerates with abandon.
Awash in the sort of rafter-climbing rock 'n' roll epics that always sound even bolder in a live setting, Arrow takes time to creep down quieter corridors in "The Arrow Killed the Beast" and "Low Low Low." The latter song frames Wennerstrom's voice in delicate steel guitars before giving her space to echo and boom in a beautiful chorus — just one more chance for Arrow to shine a spotlight on a rock star in the making.
-- By Stephen Thompson, NPR Music
Arrow will be available to stream on demand from January 30 through February 14, 2012. The album will be released on February 14, 2012.

Rising from the Force vs. Flight battle these Son of Force ladies trainers by Nike break new ground with their pink and orange accents and mid-high silhouette.

The futuristic silver upper with pink and orange detailing makes these shoes perfect for summer. Perforations allow air to circulate around the shoe, keeping your feet cool, dry and comfortable.

These Nike trainers are finished with a durable outsole that's constructed with pivot points for ease of movement on smooth terrains. Wear these mid-high top trainers with your favourite skinny jeans and vest top combo this summer for a court side finish.

Killed my system.Pros: If it works I will be grateful for the small size. Cons: System was working fine. Shut it down and took my old USB 1.1 card out.
