The struggle between deciding what's right and what's right now can be exhausting, so we compiled seven scenarios on how to be the boss at, well...being the boss. Sort through your work problems and deliver the best possible decision in a high-pressure situation with our ultimate boss checklist.
1. Be in a Good Mood
You were speeding during your commute, then wound up late with a traffic ticket and unable to beat the guy who's after your gig. But don't fret--if you do, it might kill your job security. Starting out the work day pissed is dangerous because your mood influences the decisions you make, says Don Moore, Ph.D, an associate management professor at the University of California, Berkeley and coauthor of Judgment in Managerial Decision Making. "If it's a question of 'should we take the risk?' you're more likely to say 'yes' if you're in an angry mood," he says. So cheer up--it's just a citation.
2. Avoid Distractions
If your days fill up fast but you know there's a big decision looming, set aside enough time to thoroughly mull it over. Better yet, designate 30 to 45 minutes for deliberations first thing in the morning before your day gets away from you, suggests Mike Staver, author of Leadership Isn't For Cowards and founder of The Staver Group, a performance-consulting firm for businesses. The key, though, is to avoid interruptions--keep Outlook off--so you're only focused on the decision at hand.
3. Start Early
After a long call with your supervisor in the morning, you learn that some of your best workers may be let go tomorrow...and he's charged you with trimming them. Tough as it is, don't procrastinate to avoid the axing, Moore says. "Hurrying through those complex decisions late in the day when you're trying to get out and you're feeling stressed is not a good plan." (Slay stress and build mental muscle with these 27 Ways to Power Up Your Brain.)
4. Call for Help
Being a boss has its perks, but constantly making a company's life and death decisions doesn't seem like one of them. And when you're overtaxed but need to make snap choices based on too little information, your intuition can bias you enough to make mistakes and get burnt out. "Decision fatigue leads people to make worse decisions," Moore says. Your move: ask for help and allocate the most stressful parts to empty your plate. When the time is right, you'll make a more informed choice.
5. Assess the Aftermath
Now that your employees spent hours compiling more than enough information for you to make the call, wade through it all with these questions in mind: What does it mean for the company's bottom line? Does it empower you or weaken you within the firm? Is it legal, let alone ethical? "It's when the decisions get divorced from your own values that you're more likely to do something you regret later," Moore says. Try the wife test: If you can't go home and explain to the Mrs. what's happening at work, speak up and lay out a case that's more aligned with your values.
6. Make Your Choice
After a long day and a quick glance around the office--your intern is dozing off and your papers are scattered around Chinese takeout containers--it's judgment hour. If you have enough information and feel like you're ready to make a decision, do it. If not, don't. "Say 'If you need a decision from me now, the answer's no. If we can have more time, I would like to reflect on it and gather more data," Moore says. There's nothing wrong with spending a little overtime to get things right.
7. Thank the Supporting Cast
A few of your best employees stayed late with you at the office as your decision hit the "Yes, we're doing this" or "No, we can't justify it" hour. You couldn't have done it without them, so how can you recognize their hard work? Skip the email and actually write out a thank-you note to each member of the team that specifically mentions how their contribution helped you out, Staver says. They're likely to appreciate it more than a few slices of pizza or special parking space. (Searching for more ways to be a friendlier boss? Learn 3 Secrets Every Manager Must Know.)

Natural Ways to Combat Stress in Stressed-Out Students
There are natural ways to fight stress that students can take advantage of.By: Ben Golden, Sibley Scribe
Most high school students have had to deal with overwhelming amounts of stress, whether from a big exam the next day, balancing a job with family and social life, extra activities, or a combination of these. It can often be very challenging to keep a positive attitude and not spin out of control at times. When these kinds of feelings occur, there are certain easy, natural ways to help the level of stress settle down.
The most important, and often most challenging change a student can make is to his / her diet. Consistent stress can actually lead to the loss of a surprising amount of essential vitamins, such as Vitamins B and C, magnesium, potassium, iron and calcium, to name a few. Changing a diet to include more of these vitamins will be beneficial. Some good foods for this are leafy vegetables, broccoli and cauliflower. Eating a good breakfast can also help you to manage stress. Fish and fish oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids can reduce stress response. Avoiding processed food is another way to promote a healthy diet. Certain kinds of herbal tea can be good too. Packing your own lunch can give you the option to control what you eat. If done properly, it ensures that you get foods with more vitamins and nutrients, and less processed food with excess fats and carbs. Having a healthy diet will give you more energy and help you maintain a more positive outlook.
Exercising is also a great way to relieve stress. Being in sports or even a weekly kickboxing or yoga class can be very valuable. Exercise and physical activity boosts endorphins (brain neurotransmitters), making you feel good. Even with the extra curricular activities, one of the most important ways to keep anxiety down is to always devote some time just for you. Time to wind down and relax is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Listening to music and keeping a clear mind, even if only for a little while, will help to keep a level head and a positive mindset. Students face a huge amount of stress due to being overbooked, exhausted, trying to take on too much, or any number of other factors.
Taking time to keep stress in check is one of the wisest things you can do.

A Unique Family Engagement Solution
By Patricia Crain de Galarce, Principal E.W. Stokes Community Freedom Public Charter School
When families are involved at school, students achieve more and schools thrive. Scholastic's Read and Rise® program offers the perfect family engagement solution... just ask E.W. Stokes Community Freedom Public Charter School, which hosted a Read and Rise Book Fair last month.
The event kicked-off with a Scholastic Book Fair, followed by a research-based Family Fun Time workshop where families learned how to help their children become strong readers and learners. Afterward, families created their own books together during a build-a-book make-and-take activity. Plus, every student received a $5.00 Reading Certificate to pick out their own book at the Fair thanks to Title 1 funding and the generosity of local business sponsors.
"Families got information and there was a hands-on component. There was some modeling done. There was a take-away. There was excitement, and it ended with the Book Fair, where everyone got to walk away with books," said Principal Patricia Crain de Galarce.
"It was an event that had the capacity to cut across income levels," adds Eleanore Simms, Parent Coordinator. "It got parents and kids excited about reading. And it got them excited about doing it together."

Don Cope
DALTON, Ga. — Five years after federal regulators began seeking changes in the makeup of a chemical used to produce carpet stain repellent, researchers have found "staggeringly high" amounts of the EPA advisory board-labeled "likely carcinogen" in the Conasauga River.
Former University of Georgia professor Aaron Fisk, who oversaw a graduate student study measuring amounts of the chemical in rivers in 2006 and 2007, said levels of perfluorooctanoic acid and its compounds in the Conasauga were among the highest ever measured in water at a nonspill location.
"These levels are staggeringly high," he said. "Nobody should be eating fish in that Loopers Bend area."

PDF: CDC PFC fact sheet Final August 2007
Each day, the sprinklers at the Looper's Bend Wastewater Treatment Plant spray 30 million to 40 million gallons of wastewater, 87 percent of which is industrial waste, onto a 9,200-acre peninsula of forested land surrounded on three sides by the Conasauga River, Dalton Utilities officials said.
Waste from the federally approved sewage treatment system is supposed to decompose in the soil, but both Dr. Fisk and EPA officials now believe the man-made perfluorooctanoic acid and its compounds slip virtually unchanged into the river.
The chemical, often called PFOA or C8, is legal and has been used in carpet mills and other manufacturing sites in the area for at least 15 years, officials said.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency published a notice in the Federal Register on April 16, 2003, stating the agency has identified "potential human health concerns from exposure" to the substance but noted, "there remains considerable scientific uncertainty regarding potential risks."
Three years later, the EPA began negotiating for changes with the eight national companies that make PFOA and labeled the chemical a "likely carcinogen." EPA reports also state the chemical has been linked with problems such as low-weight babies.
Though careful to say the products made with PFOA are safe, the EPA asked PFOA makers to reduce the chemical in the products they supply to the carpet industry and other manufacturers, records show.
The chemical makers agreed to reductions of 95 percent no later than 2010 and "to work toward eliminating the chemicals by 2015."
The concern locally is so new that regulators do not monitor or require permits for the chemical, much less have cleanup strategies, according to Georgia Environmental Protection Division officials.
Hairdresser Wilma Gibson, 66, who has lived her entire life by the Conasauga, said she began noticing a stench wafting from the river more than a decade ago.
Although she doesn't smell the odor as much anymore, she doesn't believe the river is clean.
"I wouldn't eat out of it," she said. "I wouldn't even swim in it, if I could swim."
"Undue concern and anxiety"
While carpet industry leaders knew about the EPA's concerns, they rejected an offer to participate with the EPA in local PFOA monitoring in wastewater, solid waste and air, EPA records show.
A May 13, 2004, position statement on the chemical from the Carpet and Rug Institute Board of Directors, included in EPA records, states, "It would be premature to commence PFOA environmental monitoring at this time."
"In addition," the statement continues, "if monitoring were conducted under present conditions, the findings would be open to conjecture and misinterpretation, resulting in undue concern and anxiety."
The statement is unsigned, but Carpet and Rug Institute President Werner Braun recently defended the letter.
"In our society today, it is absolutely known that you report the presence of some chemical and everybody gets all up and arms," Mr. Braun said.
Dalton Utilities President Don Cope said no regulatory requirements exist for the utility to test for or limit the still-legal chemical in the utility's wastewater.
"It's not a part of my permit, and it's not something I've been told to analyze for," Mr. Cope said. "At this juncture, nobody has told anybody to monitor, modify or do anything in regards to that."
Staff Photo by Angela Lewis -- The Conasauga River runs through Whitfield and Murray counties in Georgia.
The utility, like the trade group, knew the concerns the EPA already had raised, and in 2006, when national media reports surfaced about PFOA in Teflon, Dalton Utilities officials crafted their own media statement, according to Mr. Cope and Dalton Utilities spokeswoman Lori McDaniel.
The statement indicated that the utility "would take no action until the regulatory agencies who permit our operations provide us with guidance indicating that any action is necessary."
"To date, none of the regulatory agencies overseeing our operations have communicated any information to us on this matter," the statement reads.
The statement was never released, according to Mr. Cope and Mrs. McDaniel, because neither residents nor local news outlets inquired about the substance being in local waterways.
Federal study under way
In the two decades since some Dalton manufacturers began producing new carpets with brand names such as Stainmaster, PFOA has garnered headlines at home and abroad. Researchers around the world began to announce they were finding the unnatural chemical in unlikely places, including Arctic ice and polar bears.
The same characteristic in the chemical that makes carpet impervious to dampness and stains also allows it to spread easily and endure in the environment, scientists said. The substance does not bind easily to materials such as soil, so it travels with rainwater runoff. Since it does not absorb water, it also does not break down, scientists said.
The EPA's Mary Dominiak, who coordinated the agency's PFOA investigation, said the 2004 rejected Dalton monitoring plan would have helped the agency better understand how the chemical travels from its industrial users to the environment and people.
Such monitoring also might show how widespread PFOA's presence is in local air, soil and water, records show.
EPA records and Ms. Dominiak indicated Dalton was chosen as a site for the proposed study because the carpet industry was a heavy user of the product.
High PFOA levels in the Carpet Capital would mean that a PFOA "user" such as the carpet industry "could be one of the sources of the chemicals out in the environment," she said.
For now, the work by Mr. Fisk and his graduate students for a University of Georgia fisheries study and a forestry study is the only apparent public examination of the issue.
When meetings of PFOA makers and the EPA began in 2003, some Dalton industry leaders took part, EPA records show. Representatives from both Shaw Industries and the Carpet and Rug Institute were at the meeting where environmental consultant Ranjit Machado, of Environ, presented a plan for PFOA monitoring in Dalton, according to the EPA's records. The records show industry leaders, like the trade group, declined to help carry out the monitoring plan, citing a lack of EPA monitoring standards.
Shaw Industries' Rick Ramirez said in a recent e-mail message that the company is "not at all" opposed to environmental testing of groundwater at some point for PFOA.
Mr. Ramirez, vice president of sustainability and environmental affairs, added, "When a quality standard is in place, we would be very supportive of any science-based testing."
Ms. Dominiak said studies on the chemical's health risks could take a couple of years before being completed.

PFOA is not teflon but rather an (historic, essential, being phased-out) additive to allow the making of Teflon /PTFE or other fluoro polymers. If the reader goes to "google" PFOA or PTFE or Teflon, more information will be available to them.
PFOA is a very dangerous chemical. Watch http://youtube.com/c8tragedy for a personal story.
North Georgia has a high rate of cancer. I have always wondered if it was because of chemicals used in the carpet industries.

Comments about Make: Electronics: I purchased this book after seeing at a local radio shack. Although I troubleshoot electrical systems at times with my job, I never had to understand much about how individual components work to make functional circuits. This book renewed my electrical/electronic interest and refreshed my theory learned long ago, but much forgotten due to lack of use. The Author does an excellent job of explaining electronics in a simple, yet interesting way that stimulates learning. I did not find any inaccuracies in any of the projects. Easy to understand color photographs and diagrams explain both theory and how to assemble the circuits. The book begins with very simple projects and explanations and builds upon this foundation to some rather complicated circuits in chapters 3 and 4. I succeeded in completing nearly every project in the book over several months, including adding some of my own enhancements. Chapter 5 is an introduction to other areas of electronics such as audio circuits, radio, microcontrollers, and robotics. Although the projects in chapter 5 aren't really necessary to do, they provide a "jumping off" point into other specific areas of electronics. Pros

Syracuse basketball is no longer No. 1 in the nation, but SU is back on top in another category: snow.
The Weather Channel named Syracuse University the snowiest college in America in a new list published Wednesday. The campus in Syracuse, N.Y. sees an average of more than 126 inches of snow annually, according to TWC.
"Syracuse is heads and shoulders above the rest when it comes to average annual snowfall total, and you can thank lake-effect snow for that," TWC writer Alan Raymond says. "'Cuse gets more than 10 feet of snow every year. So, if you like snow, this top-notch basketball school in Syracuse, N.Y., is the place for you."
Northern Arizona University, located in Flagstaff, Ariz., was named the second snowiest school in America. The Weather Channel explains NAU, located near the Grand Canyon, sees nearly 98 inches of snow every year, due to more humidity than in the rest of the state.
Rounding out the top five are No. 3 Montana State University (93.5″), No. 4 University of Colorado in Boulder (87.6″) and No. 5 Binghamton University (85.3″).
Besides SU and Binghamton, the new top 25 snowiest schools list included four other New York schools: No. 7 Colgate University (69.6″), No. 11 Cornell University (66.9″) and No. 17 was a tie between SUNY Albany and Siena College (61.6″).
The Weather Channel said its rankings were based on the nearly 350 Division 1 colleges and universities in the United States. The snowiest schools were determined by cross-referencing what city each campus is in with its 30-year season snowfall average from the nearest National Weather Service NOW data site.
That explains why their list is different from AccuWeather, who named Michigan Technological University No. 1 in a similar article last month. Students in Houghton, Mich., trudge through close to 200 inches of powder every month, but Michigan Tech is a Division II school.
Also SUNY Oswego, which somehow "tied" SU for the No. 2 spot on AccuWeather's list, was left off of The Weather Channel's rankings because it competes in NCAA Division III.
Many readers disagreed with AccuWeather's criteria, which was much less specific. AccuWeather writer Kristen Rodman told syracuse.com they focused on "well-known schools in which everyone would likely recognize and schools with typically a high number of students."
So congrats, Orange. You're on top of the snow pile again.
The Weather Channel's top 10 snowiest colleges in America
10. University of Maine – Orono, Maine (67.9″ of snow annually)
9. University of Notre Dame – South Bend, Indiana (68″)
8. Cleveland State University – Cleveland, Ohio (68.5″)
7. Colgate University – Hamilton, N.Y. (69.6″)
6. The University of Vermont – Burlington, Vermont (83.6″)
5. Binghamton University – Binghamton, N.Y. (85.3″)
4. University of Colorado, Boulder – Boulder, Colorado (87.6″)
3. Montana State University – Bozeman, Montana (93.5″)
2. Northern Arizona University – Flagstaff, Arizona (97.6″)
1. Syracuse University – Syracuse, N.Y. (126.3″)

Governor's Office
Domestic violence awareness advocates share information and resources at State House
For Immediate Release: Friday, Feb. 7
Contact: Adrienne Bennett, Press Secretary, 207-287-2531
AUGUSTA – Governor Paul R. LePage has proclaimed the month of February to be Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month. He joined domestic violence awareness advocates in his office last week to sign the proclamation and praised them for their work.
"There is no room for any type of violence in Maine and I will do everything I can to stop the abuse," said the Governor. "Violence awareness advocacy groups are an intricate part of helping raise awareness and supporting victims, and I commend these organizations, which are truly making a difference."
According to Regina Rooney, Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence's Public Awareness Coordinator, "In 2013, nearly 40,000 youth in communities throughout Maine participated in education around dating violence and healthy relationships, provided by advocates from MCEDV resource centers. Outreach and awareness-building with young people is essential to laying the foundation for a violence-free future."
On Thursday, Feb. 6, domestic violence awareness and prevention organizations recognized Domestic Violence Awareness Day at the State House in Augusta where they displayed and shared informational material with the public. Those who participated in this year's event included, the Maine Coalition to End Domestic Violence, Hope & Justice Project, Spruce Run-Womancare Alliance, Next Step, Family Violence Project, New Hope for Women, Family Crisis Services, Safe Voices, Caring Unlimited, Wabanaki Women's Coalition, and the Maliseet Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Program.
The Governor invites Mainers to join violence awareness advocates in helping to raise awareness on this important issue by encouraging statewide youth, families, schools, law enforcement communities, government agencies, elected officials, civic organizations and other interested groups to show support for the organizations and individuals who provide critical advocacy and services and assistance to victims.
The Proclamation is as follows:
WHEREAS, the youth of Maine are this State's most precious resource and greatest hope for the future, and ensuring their safety, well-being, positive development and growth into healthy citizens is a priority and responsibility we all share; and
WHEREAS, the transitional adolescent years present new challenges and choices for teens as they experience dating relationships for the first time; and
WHEREAS, teen dating violence, including physical, verbal and
emotional abuse, sexual assault, and harassment via texting, email or "instant messaging" is a reality for many teenagers in Maine and it is a reality of which many parents and caregivers are unaware; and WHEREAS, studies also indicate that effects of violent relationships can be serious and put victims at higher risk for substance abuse, eating disorders, risky sexual behavior, suicide and adult re-victimization; and
WHEREAS, both Houses of the U.S. Congress have declared February as "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month".
NOW, THEREFORE, I, PAUL R. LEPAGE, Governor of the State of Maine, do hereby recognize February, 2014 as
throughout the State of Maine, and urge all citizens to recognize this observance.

UMPD note to campus community
Friday, Dec. 13, the University of Maine Police Department responded to two reports of theft of wallets on campus — one in Deering Hall and one in Chadbourne Hall. The wallets were reported stolen from a coat hanging outside a classroom and from a pocketbook in a desk drawer.
Police are looking for a young white male described as between the ages of 18 to 24, closely shaven with dirty blond hair, 5-foot-6 to 5-foot-9 inches tall, wearing blue jeans, white sneakers and a black wool pea coat, and carrying a gray and black backpack. Police request with information about this suspect call 581-4040 or provide information anonymously through CAMPUS EYES on the UMPD website.
Police advise campus community members to safely secure their belongings. Employees are advised to lock offices when unattended, even for a moment, and to secure valuables in a locked drawer or cabinet.
Police also advise students and staff to be extra-vigilant and to report and suspicious activity, including "casing", to police by calling 581-4040 or 9-1-1.

For The Maine Campus
The University of Maine was one of the 20 locations across the state last week to take part in a test of Maine's emergency preparedness procedures led by local emergency responders and National Guard units throughout New England, including New York and New Jersey.
The operation, known as the Vigilant Guard, staged several scenarios to test existing response procedures, including a hostage scenario at the State House in Augusta, according to a memo released by the Maine National Guard.
Agencies were tested to assess "their knowledge and expertise in assessing storm damages, hazmat identification, decontamination, search and rescue, patient extraction, triage, and other emergency response measures," the memo stated.
Last week's operation represented the first time the Vigilant Guard visited New England. With more than 3,000 members of the National Guard, local emergency responders and civilian groups, it was "the biggest operation by far," Chief Master Sergeant Kelly Hoffses said.
Students and faculty arriving on campus early Tuesday and Wednesday found the area between Fogler and Alumni Hall cordoned off and occupied by a multitude of military and emergency vehicles in front of Holmes Hall. Affected sites included Holmes Hall, Moosehead Road, Beta Lot, Holmes Lot, Merrill Lot and parts of Fogler. A press release from the university alerted students and faculty about the closures. With the exception of certain ancillary functions at Fogler, campus traffic and activities went unhindered by the drill.
The university supplied emergency responders and the National Guard with a makeshift laboratory in Holmes Hall. The drill simulated a potential hazardous material leak reported to public safety by a janitor. Firefighters from the Orono Fire Department arrived on the scene only to determine the need for additional support. Members of the National Guard responded and arrived to cordon the area, identify the chemicals and assess the hazard.
Responders and Guard members "did a great job," according to Wayne Maines, the UMaine director of safety and environmental management. "Everyone did what they were supposed to do."
While responders were not tasked with the job of cleaning the chemical site, they performed extensive analysis and evaluation of the threat.
"They have to test every chemical," Maines said.
In Holmes Hall, small vials from campus laboratories were released and mixed with refuse and household chemicals, such as Pine-Sol, which the team sifted through to sort and analyze. Some members of the team were dressed in full bio-contamination suits and could be seen entering and exiting the building all day.
Much of the drill was conducted between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 5, the Orono Fire Department was joined by members of the National Guard from both the Bangor barracks and from New York. Wednesday, Nov. 6, members from the New Hampshire National Guard responded to a call for assistance in real time, arriving from the barracks in New Hampshire to the university in five hours.
With preparations in the works for more than a year, the university was approached by the Maine Emergency Management Agency with a request to incorporate the campus into the operation. Requests for comment from MEMA about the selection process were not answered.
The purpose of the Vigilant Guard is to "identify strengths and weaknesses [in emergency procedures]," Senior Master Sgt. Kelly Hoffses said. Building successful, strong relationships between local emergency responders and larger groups, like the National Guard and MEMA, is essential, according to Hoffses.
The exercises performed Tuesday and Wednesday replicated conditions that may be experienced in bio-terrorist activity, chemical leaks and spills. Such events are not rare. According to a 2010 report published by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), 194 hazardous material spills occurred in Maine in 2006. The total number of spills recorded by the DEP that year were 2,974, a majority being non-hazardous material and oil.
On July 18, 2011, more than 50 gallons of hazardous material spilled at the NAMCO facility in Westbrook, requiring the evacuation of all workers, with firefighters from six cities and members of the Presumpscot Valley Hazardous Material Team responding to neutralize the chemicals, according to an article from the Portland Press Herald.
The Associated Press reported on June 3, 2012, that a chemical spill at the QuantumClean facility in Scarborough left three workers hospitalized and required local firefighters and emergency responders to contain and neutralize the chemicals.
Just recently on Feb. 21, 2013, nearly 150 people were evacuated from Hitchner Hall after a chemical reaction caused the release of chlorine gas.
Quick responses in past incidents helped to ensure the safety of the public and minimize injuries. With the training from the Vigilant Guard operation, local groups will be better equipped to react when hazardous chemical spills occur in the future.
Maines was on the scene with members of UMPD and student security to coordinate activity and provide information to students. "It's important for students to know the importance of the [Maine National] Guard. And they're right here in Bangor," Maines said.

Exercise Vigilant Guard continues today, Wednesday, November 6, 2013
##Today's major simulated events:
* Statewide: Many County Emergency Operations Centers, and several local EOCS are exercising today. They are dealing with the aftermath of the fictional ice storm and blizzard. This includes massive power outages, emergency power failures at hospitals or other critical sites, damage to public buildings, and farm impacts including dead livestock. Counties are also testing multiple communications systems. * Orono: The hazardous materials response at the University of Maine campus continues today. * Jackman: a simulated bus accident will prompt cross-border a response. * State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) will be open throughout the exercise * Public health officials continue to respond to a simulated disease threat, and will be exercising mass dispensing of medications at a variety of locations
##About the Exercise:
The exercise is part of a series of training events sponsored by the U.S. Northern Command and the National Guard Bureau aimed at improving command, control and operational relationships with local, state and regional civilian and military emergency response partners.
The exercise continues statewide through noon on Friday.

Print This PostDay One of Exercise Vigilant Guard
##Tuesday, November 5, 2013:
Within the exercise scenario, Maine is faced with a simulated major winter storm (ice storm similar to 1998 followed by a blizzard and frigid temperatures), a major structural collapse, several mass casualty and hazardous materials incidents, and security threats, as well as other various scenarios, all happening at the same time.
The State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) will be open throughout the exercise, using the scenario as an opportunity to train on emergency procedures. Representatives from most state agencies, several federal agencies and the American Red Cross, coordinate their activities in the EOC.
Today's major simulated events:
* Brunswick: at the former Brunswick Naval Air Station, response to a simulated structure collapse begins. This response will continue around the clock through Thursday. A number of multi-jurisdictional teams will rotate through the site. * Orono: The University of Maine campus will be the site of a hazardous materials threat * Calais: a hazardous materials accident will involve cross-border response * Augusta: a security incident will bring responders to the State House complex (late afternoon into evening).
At any of these sites, and others over the next few days, the public may see emergency or military vehicles, or groups of uniformed responders. Exercise vehicles will not be using lights or sirens.
##About the Exercise:
The exercise is part of a series of training events sponsored by the U.S. Northern Command and the National Guard Bureau aimed at improving command, control and operational relationships with local, state and regional civilian and military emergency response partners. The main focus is interagency coordination in the event of domestic emergencies and catastrophic events.
The agencies will be pushed to use their knowledge and expertise accessing storm damages, hazmat identification, decontamination, search and rescue, patient extraction, triage, and other emergency-response measures. Just as in real life, these fictional events will create consequences that will require additional emergency intervention.

Attorney General Mills Warns Door-to-Door Meat Sales are a Recipe for Deception
AUGUSTA – Maine Attorney General Janet T. Mills is warning Mainers about fraudulent door-to-door meat sellers who have been active in the state recently. The sellers claim the meat is left over from a delivery that fell through. They say you can buy the meat at extremely low prices, but the meat turns out to be very expensive and low-quality — and they won't allow you to cancel.
Often the scammer tells you a local restaurant "couldn't take the whole order," or that a neighbor to whom the meat was to be delivered was not home. Such come-on lines usually are completely false. They just lead you to think you can get a great bargain — if you make a snap decision to buy. That's a recipe for deception. Such scam-artists often fail to obtain required licenses, and they often fail to give customers the required written and oral three-day cancellation notices.
Follow these tips to avoid being cheated by door-to-door meat or food sellers:
Some door-to-door food sellers are legitimate. To check whether complaints have been received against a company — or to report a door-to-door food scam contact the Maine Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division at 1-800-436-2131 or 626-8849 Monday-Friday 9:00 a.m. – noon and 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. or by email at email@example.com.

Stunning Outline Save the Date Magnets This save the date magnet came out absolutely beautiful! The personalization came out perfect and the magnet is great quality. We couldn't be happier with the finished product. I would definitely refer this site to my friends!
Gorgeous Design
Stunning Outline Save the Date Magnets I love these magnets. I love that I can make them look like my fiancé and me and that they're just so dang fun! I do have two gripes with them, though: the colors came out just a bit different than they were on my screen, so my skin looks much more yellow than what I thought it would. Also, the picture on the side, not the background or the text - just the picture, is sort of grainy. I don't think anyone else noticed and absolutely everyone tells me that they think these magnets are just adorable. Being the bride, though, I noticed. I'm still for sure going to use this design for my invites, though! :D
Great Quality
Stunning Outline Save the Date Magnets I was hesitant to order my save the date cards online as I was nervous the quality of the prints might not be to my expectations. This was not the case at all with Magnet street. I actually decided to do magnets instead of cards that came with envelopes. I also ordered return address stickers that replicated the design on the magnet and stickers to seal the envelopes with. I could not have been more pleased when everything arrived in a beautiful box. The magnets were good quality. The ink was crisp and the envelopes were lined with a thick silver paper which was very nice. I also thought the stickers came out wonderfully and the pricing was great. I certainly recommend this company!!!

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Angry words flew at the Capitol on Saturday night as lawmakers ended their 60-day session without passing anything to regulate Marcellus Shale natural gas drilling.
Members of the House of Delegates and Senate blamed each other for the demise of legislation (SB424) that would have addressed environmental regulations, permit fees, protections for property owners and other issues related to development of one of the world's richest natural gas basins.
Senators had passed the bill earlier this month, but the House -- which favored stronger protections for the environment and landowners -- never voted on it. Among other things, the two sides disagreed on notice to property owners, the distances operators can drill from West Virginians' homes and water wells, and the hiring of gas well inspectors.
In a floor speech, Sen. Mike Green, D-Raleigh, called the House's failure to act on the bill "shameful."
"It makes us wonder what the commitment of the House leadership was to get this job done," said Green, who plans to ask state Senate President Earl Ray Tomblin, who is acting as governor, to adjust his budget proposal so the state can hire more inspectors.
But House Judiciary Chairman Tim Miley, D-Harrison, said the Senate was not willing to compromise.
In a meeting Saturday afternoon, Miley said, Green "resorted to talking about how we can't do anything because it's too late, and expressed no interest in trying to work out the differences."
Later in the day, Senate staff again told delegates that the Senate wouldn't budge, Miley said.
"I'm embarrassed for him, and it's a shameless attempt to try to cast dispersion on the House of Delegates," Miley said of Green's floor speech.
Lawmakers signed off on a proposal (SB465) to give tax breaks to the natural gas and manufacturing industries in hopes of luring a facility that converts ethane -- a natural gas byproduct -- into ethylene, which is used by chemical manufacturers and is a key ingredient in the plastics industry.
Delegate Bonnie Brown, D-Kanawha, questioned why legislators would approve these incentives without completing Marcellus regulation proposals.
"So we're just giving them a tax break before we even regulate the industry?" she asked.
Late Saturday night, Delegate Mike Manypenny, a Taylor County Democrat who has pushed for stronger drilling regulations, was collecting signatures from colleagues for a letter to the state Department of Environmental Protection. He wants the agency to use emergency powers to issue a moratorium on new Marcellus drilling permits.
Some lawmakers believe there could now be a special session called to craft Marcellus regulations.
DEP Secretary Randy Huffman said he is confident his agency will be able to regulate the drilling without changes in the law, at least for now.
"We don't have a crisis in the short term," he said. As far as the legislation, "I think it was a lot to expect to get so many issues and so many interests dealt with adequately in such a short period of time."
Delegate Sam Cann, who works in the industry and is a former president of the Independent Oil and Gas Association of West Virginia, called the legislative process for the measure "a train wreck."
"I think they never really defined the problems they wanted to work on," said Cann, a Harrison County Democrat. "And all the interest groups thought they could get the whole boat."
Dave McMahon of the West Virginia Surface Owners' Rights Organization questioned why the bill languished in the final hours of the session Saturday.
Without new regulations, McMahon said, the state "should not be giving out any more permits than they can review and inspect."
Measures that won both House and Senate approval Saturday, sending them to the acting governor's desk, included:
• Pay raises for judges, and public school and state employees (HB2879). The compromise gives $1,488 raises to teachers, 2 percent increases for state employees and school service personnel, $970 raises for State Police troopers and $835 for Division of Natural Resources officers.
The bill also includes a pay-raise package for judicial salaries, ranging from $7,500 for magistrates to $15,000 for Supreme Court justices. The bill also gives the National Guard's adjutant general a $32,500 raise, to $125,000 a year.
It passed the House 74-24 and passed the Senate 27-6, with Republicans in both houses accounting for the opposing votes.
