Buffalo Sabres coach Lindy Ruff was clutching his right arm in pain and had to be helped off the ice after being upended by defenseman Jordan Leopold in practice Tuesday.
The Sabres had no update on Ruff's status, except to say the coach was not available to address reporters as he usually does after practice.
A person familiar with what happened told The Associated Press that Ruff was escorted outside of the arena by a team trainer. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the person is not authorized to comment on team matters.
According to witnesses, Ruff was looking the other way when Leopold lost his footing and crashed into the back of the coach's skates. Ruff fell backward, landing on his right arm.

Recycling containers come to downtown Waynesville
Written by Becky Johnson- Sewing traditions together: Weaver attracted by all facets of ancient art
- Car charging stations to be installed in Waynesville
- Mixed feelings among residents on new plans for old prison
- Forest fixer-upper: Logging clears the way for a more ecologically robust watershed
- Computing for the future
- Waynesville lands free property for new in-town greenway section
- In Waynesville, meter readers going the way of milkmen
- Putting a price on memories
No more schlepping those empty drink bottles or cans home after a day of browsing in downtown Waynesville.
A dozen recycling containers will soon be scattered around Main Street and its surrounds.
The town made the move purchase and install recycling cans based on requests from merchants as well as residents, according to Alison Lee Melnikova, the assistant town manager.
Melnikova scouted the streets and sidewalks with Downtown Waynesville Association Director Buffy Messer recently to assess where to put the new containers, but the final locations are still being decided.
The recycling containers will look similar to the public trash cans around downtown, with the vertical wood slats, but will be dark green in color and are actually made from recycled plastic, although they look like wood, Melnikova said. The recycling containers will cost the town $5,000.
For special events and festivals, DWA put out portable recycling cans, but the rest of the year, Main Street browsers faced the unfortunate conundrum of what to do with those recyclables — either toting a sticky can around or guiltily tossing it when it seems no one is looking.
Cans should be in place by early August.

MIAMIS LUCKY NUMBER 13: On Friday, Oct. 13, the number 13 proved to be lucky for the RedHawks. Although, Miami was without its top player #13 Kelly McCullough, who did not make the weekend trip due to illness, three Miami players posted 13 kills in the RedHawks 3-1 triumph at Toledo. Jennifer Eaton posted a 13-kill, 13-dig double-double, while Erika Eagan and Jessica Rayburg each registered 13 kills. Eagan attained the illusive triple-double, and Rayburg was one block shy of 13 blocks.
RECORDS GALORE FOR THE FALCONS: The Falcons set a number of individual and team records in the win over Northern Illinois Saturday. BGSU set school marks for kills and assists in a match. BG's total of 102 kills snapped the old record of 96, set versus St. Johns (Sept. 19, 1998 - four games). The Falcons' 93 assists topped the old record by 10 (83 vs. Central Michigan, Nov. 27, 1987 - five games), and the team shattered the record for assists in a four-game match (73, twice). Individually, junior Natalie Becker broke the single-match record for assists, with 82. The old record of 80 was set by Linda Popovich in a five-game contest in 1987. Becker obliterated the old record of 66 assists in a four-game match (set by Wendy Watkins in 1998).
TOLEDOS BLOCK PARTY: The Rockets registered their top two blocking performances of the season against Miami and Buffalo last week. UT registered 15 blocks versus the RedHawks and 13 at Buffalo to average 3.5 blocks per game for the week, more than twice their season average of 1.59.

She needs 11 more total blocks to become only the fifth CMU player to post 1,000 career kills and 350 career total blocks.
FRESHMEN SEE PLENTY OF ACTION: A pair of Kent State freshmen saw their most extensive action of the season last Friday versus Northern Illinois and took full advantage of it. Outside hitter Bevin Murdock played in all five games and had a career-high 10 kills, 39 attempts and seven digs. Murdock also added two block assists. Outside hitter Tarrin Pelton also played in five games and contributed a career-high 12 digs.
RECORD SETTING NIGHT FOR BOWMAN: Freshman setter Jenny Bowman set a school record for assists in a match in Saturday nights loss at Bowling Green.

MATIKOSH DELIVERS CONSISTENTLY: Buffalo freshman Lindsay Matikosh has remained a consistent force for the Bulls in their last five matches. Matikosh has registered at least eight kills in each her last five contests, including eight against Bowling Green and 11 versus Toledo.

HERD FINDING IT TOUGH TO CLOSE OUT: The Marshall volleyball team struggled last week finishing off games.

Marshall also held an 8-1 lead against Western Michigan in the second game of the match last Friday, but the Broncos outscored Marshall, 14-1, to take the game, 15-9.

OHIO FACED TWO HOT SQUADS: After picking up its seventh straight win last Wednesday at Marshall, Ohio ran into two of the hottest teams in the league in Ball State and Western Michigan. The Bobcats, who won the first game with the Cardinals (15-10), battled through tough games two and three -- both 15-13 Ball State decisions -- before falling in game four, 15-4. Amber Merrill led Ohio with 18 kills, while Kris Whitfield added 12 kills, 12 digs and five blocks. Merrill led the Bobcats the next night in a four-game loss to the Broncos with 18 kills, with Michelle Gill pacing the team with 18 digs.
ITS TRIPLE-DOUBLE TIME AT MIAMI: For the first time since 1996, a Miami player attained the illusive triple-double, which was the fifth one this year in the MAC. Erika Eagan registered 13 kills, 12 digs and 10 blocks, leading Miami to a win at Toledo. Lori Reinart posted Miamis last triple-double (14 kills, 12 digs, 14 blocks) against Ohio on Nov. 2, 1996.

To back them further, county commissioners voted on Tuesday to lease land as well for research into what aquaculture practices work best in the waters off Southwest Florida.
Commissioners authorized staff to begin the county's own lease application to promote research on aquaculture by local institutions such as Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and Florida Gulf Coast University. Both have expressed an interest in conducting research, county officials say. That's good for the future clam farmers, said Commissioner Jim Coletta, who has been behind helping the fishermen in the district who were adversely affected by the 1995 implementation of a net ban on commercial fishermen.
"When you put together a venture like this, there is an element of risk," Coletta said. "Nothing helps like continued research to find out the best practices for clam farming and harvesting."
He's also hoping that Everglades City High School's aquaculture program might take an interest as well.
The county will apply to lease two 2-acre parcels of submerged state land for aquaculture research.
According to officials at the Florida Department of Agriculture, the application fee of $200 can be waived for the county, but a survey would need to be performed after approval of the application.
Rental costs for the four plots comes to $104 per year $26 per acre per year for a 10-year term, though the county could opt out at any time.
Some 20 potential clam farmers received assistance filling out necessary applications for the Florida Department of Agriculture in recent months. And the county also held workshops to answer the questions they might have about the business.
This endeavor would have fishermen seeding and harvesting clams from northern waters but that do well here. The clam farmers would seed and harvest 20 2-acre plots to see if it's a viable business for them.
The county's task force, which has been working since 2002, has chosen two sites in Gullivan Bay as potential areas to seed with baby clams.
"If our citizens are to be successful with their clam leases, we need to support their investment of time and money by ongoing research in best management techniques," Coletta said.

I found it to be pretty but so dangerous. I went to the Grand Prix a few years back with work and we had to have a security team to watch over us.
Dude, as any city, São Paulo has it's dangerous places and Interlagos, the region of the Grand Prix, is one of them. I was born here, trust me.
I was in São Paulo last year. Nice place, like any other big city.
I want a Brazilian iPad!! You know it will be WAYYY sexier than those iPads manufactured in China, gross. Dark skin, perfectly toned body, beautiful face, big.....buttons....Oh wait...what were we talking about again?
Boa noite tudo mundo! Eu amo Brasil! Eu quero voltar! Ipads em Brasil? Shoppa-na-brasa! Basically, Brasil was dangerous, but you just need to know where not to go by yourself, what times not to go, learn Portuguese, and always hang around a lot of locals and speak in their native tongue when walking around. You should be fine. I can't wait to live there again!
Well, regardless of what you are talking about, I agree completely!
BIG BUTTONS....huh? Oh, got lost in translation...
Is dangerous like other big city in the world. I have never heard notice about universities killers like other countries "more safe" (sorry for my bad english)
I trust you bro... I trust you..
Haha, that was just a great comment
for all of you guys!!! I´m Brazilian Guy and I´m installing some equipment over there and tell you what this facility is very nice according them much clean and very organized and no slave employees ..
Also, won't they say "Designed by Apple in California, Assembled in Brazil"Of course, you'll probably know a Brazilian-manufactured iPad when you see one. Brazilian-assembled iPads will supposedly carry a BR/A suffix in their on their model numbers.
Same when I go to NY and LA. Long recession and a very slow economic "recovery" made security problems worse.

A plume of radioactive cesium from Fukushima has reached waters off British Columbia and is expected off the US coast this year. But the concentrations are much too low to be a hazard, scientists say.
By Pete Spotts, Staff writer / February 25, 2014
Two forms of radioactive cesium from Japan's Fukushima nuclear disaster have reached the continental shelf off British Columbia, but in concentrations much too low to represent a radiological hazard, according to measurements presented Tuesday at an ocean-science conference in Honolulu.

January 19: first show of the semester
It's a new year, it's a new semester, so I figure it's as good an opportunity as any to start new on the old Gates of Delirium blog. Hopefully everyone's been listening every Wednesday night 10-12, because currently I don't plan to go back and post last year's podcasts. I'm going to try to be more regular in my posts this year though. Promise…
Tonight's show features progressive artists from around the world (read: Europe and Asia), and–with a few exceptions–most of tonight's music comes from the early '70s. There are a couple of artists from the Canterbury Scene, Egg and Kevin Ayers. You may recognize Ayers from the seminal group Soft Machine (a favorite of the show), which came out at around the same time and in around the same place as other Canterbury bands like Egg, Hatfield and North, and National Health–the members of which all tend to blend together.
Representing Italy is Picchio Dal Pozzo (one of the few Progressivo Italiano bands influenced by the Canterbury Scene). Moving east, Illés hails from Hungary, Drugi Nacin from Yugoslavia (great heavy prog, featuring–of all things–extensive use of the jazz flute), Breakout from Poland, and Martin Kratochvíl's Jazz Q from the Czech Republic. From Munich, Embryo is one of the most underrepresented Krautrock groups I've come across. France's Philippe Besombes has achieved cult status as of late (see Pitchfork's review of the 2004 reissue of his 1975 album Libra). My favorite selection of tonight's show comes from South Korea, of all places: the hard-to-track-down brotherly trio San Ul Lim ("That Mountain Echo").
Before I go, I'd like to publicly acknowledge one of my callers tonight. Though I did not get his name, 51-year-old Alabama native was truly a joy. An avid music lover, he can describe in great detail the guillotine stage set at the Alice Cooper concert, or partying with Def Leppard and their "girlfriends".
Enjoy the show, and don't forget to email any requests / questions / comments / etc to firstname.lastname@example.com. I know I've been lame; I've checked my email less than I've updated the blog. But this is the new Gates of Delirium, and now I update my blog and check my email.

A Quick Trip, Lots of Photos
We visited Philly last week. I have been going to that city for years, and I keep stumbling across new things to photograph, that is, once I manage to leave the house. This time it was Eastern State, which is a crumbling ruined prison that has been opened as a museum. It is creepy and decaying and utterly beautiful, if you like that sort of thing. And I really, really like that sort of thing. I shot about five hundred pictures, which I have narrowed down to three hundred keepers. Of those three hundred, I have twenty-five or so that I will put in a gallery. Here are a couple for the time being.

The lord's Love for Israel
1"When Israel was a child, I loved him,
and I called my son out of Egypt.
2But the more I called to him,
the farther he moved from me,# As in Greek version; Hebrew reads the more they called to him, the farther he moved from them.
offering sacrifices to the images of Baal
and burning incense to idols.
3I myself taught Israel# Hebrew Ephraim, referring to the northern kingdom of Israel; also in 11:8, 9, 12. how to walk,
leading him along by the hand.
But he doesn't know or even care
that it was I who took care of him.
4I led Israel along
with my ropes of kindness and love.
I lifted the yoke from his neck,
and I myself stooped to feed him.
5"But since my people refuse to return to me,
they will return to Egypt
and will be forced to serve Assyria.
6War will swirl through their cities;
their enemies will crash through their gates.
They will destroy them,
trapping them in their own evil plans.
7For my people are determined to desert me.
They call me the Most High,
but they don't truly honor me.
8"Oh, how can I give you up, Israel?
How can I let you go?
How can I destroy you like Admah
or demolish you like Zeboiim?
My heart is torn within me,
and my compassion overflows.
9No, I will not unleash my fierce anger.
I will not completely destroy Israel,
for I am God and not a mere mortal.
I am the Holy One living among you,
and I will not come to destroy.
10For someday the people will follow me.
I, the lord, will roar like a lion.
And when I roar,
my people will return trembling from the west.
11Like a flock of birds, they will come from Egypt.
Trembling like doves, they will return from Assyria.
And I will bring them home again,"
says the lord.
Charges against Israel and Judah
12# Verse 11:12 is numbered 12:1 in Hebrew text.Israel surrounds me with lies and deceit,
but Judah still obeys God
and is faithful to the Holy One.# Or and Judah is unruly against God, the faithful Holy One. The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain.
Loading reference in secondary version...
8"Oh, how can I give you up, Israel?How can I let you go?How can I destroy you like Admahor demolish you like Zeboiim?My heart is torn within me,and my compassion overflows.

After years of working to coordinate with the Environmental Protection Agency and North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources regarding the old CTS facility, the EPA revised a prior recommendation and advised the County that removal of the building was recommended. This request was made, in part, due to evidence of use by individuals other than the owners as well as deterioration of the condition of the property. The County Attorney began discussions with the attorney for the Mills Gap Road Associates (MGRA).
The County's building inspections department inspected the property which led to the issuance of an order to repair or demolish the facility in September. Mills Gap Road Associates, (MGRA) who own the facility, appealed the building inspector's order and a hearing was set for November 1.
The County was notified today by the attorney for MGRA that they have withdrawn their appeal of the building inspector's order and consented to the demolition of the facility.
The County will begin the process of demolition as early as November 7. Proper precautions to prepare for demolition will be made and air quality samples will be taken during the process. The County is coordinating with EPA and its contractors to ensure the safety of the community during the demolition and to protect the site specific to EPA's ongoing assessment and remediation work.

Goals–10 Tips to Help You Set New Year's Resolutions
I want to be more goal-oriented. I think most of us do. It just takes some time, thought and planning…which at times may be more than any of us have to give, but I know if we do it we will be so proud later on, down the road when we look back on our life and ask ourselves, "what have I done?" We will have lists and lists of the things we have done. Trust me, we are already accomplishing many of the things that we WANT to do, but seeing that "thing" on a list and getting the chance to check it off will feel so good and almost makes it more memorable because we wrote it down.
With the New Year here you can set those resolutions and use our tips to make a plan to be successful with your goals for 2013! Here are ten tips to help you get started and on your way to success!
1-Brainstorm: Take the time to really think about what you want to achieve. Take the time to prioritize and think about the things that really matter.
2-WRITE: Just start writing. You may be stuck at first, but as you begin you will think of many things that you would like to accomplish.
3-Be realistic: Set goals that are realistic and attainable. I don't mean to say that you shouldn't shoot for the moon, but start out with things that are challenging, but that are also attainable. Stating, "I will win the million-dollar lottery," is not a realistic goal because I have no control over that. Set things that are within your control and work to obtain them.
4-Post your goals where you will you see them: No more mental check-lists. You will be far more successful if you, first, write your goals down, and second, post them where they are seen on a regular basis.
5-Be specific: I sometimes steer clear of writing goals that are too specific because I already have a fear that I won't accomplish it. I know, I am setting myself up for failure before I even begin. But, the more specific your goals are, the better. When you have a clear and specific goal you can better set your plan to accomplish that goal. Know what you want and go after it.
6-Tell a friend or family member: After you have set your goals, share them with friends and family. There is a great sense of motivation that comes when you have others to support you along the way. You also have someone other than yourself that you are going to be held accountable to.
7-Be diligent: Most of the good things in life require patience, diligence and perseverance. "There is no short term pay out for many things and showing diligence will develop one's self into a better more disciplined character."
8-Believe: Believe in yourself and the things you are capable of! Having a positive mindset is half the battle when accomplishing a goal. Don't let your own self keep you from accomplishing your goals.
9-You never fail until you quit: Don't give up because that is when you fail. If you give your whole heart and strive to obtain your goal and still don't quite make it, you didn't fail! I promise you are closer to that goal than when you started. Don't be afraid to try again.
10-Find ways to measure your success: Every inch you move closer to obtaining that goal equals success. Be aware of the progress you are making along the way.
We wish you all the best as you set, work and accomplish your own goals. You can do it! Happy goal setting and Happy New Year!!
Do you set goals? If so, do you feel like you accomplish more when you write it down? What helps you stick to your goals?

One Response to Goals–10 Tips to Help You Set New Year's Resolutions
Great tips! Sometimes I don't like telling others about my goals or plans because of the pressure it places on me, but I think that's exactly why you should be telling others, that pressure is going to hold you more accountable and want to achieve your goals knowing others are watching! Thanks for sharing these, great tips!

Book of Abraham/Joseph Smith Papyri/Kirtland Egyptian Papers
From FairMormon
The Kirtland Egyptian Papers
This page is a summary or index. More detailed information on this topic is available on the sub-pages below.
Answers portal |
The Book of Abraham |
FAQ: Joseph Smith Papyri: Book of Abraham content: Production: |
The following critical claims relate to the Kirtland Egyptian Papers (KEP):
- It is asserted that the KEP were produced prior to the Book of Abraham, and that they therefore represent the "translation working papers" for Abraham 1:1-3. A chronology of events related to the production of the Book of Abraham produced by Edward Ashment is used by critics to support this claim;
- It is asserted that the KEP are intended to deal with the Egyptian language, and that they demonstrate that Joseph did not understand Egyptian;
- It is asserted that the KEP demonstrate that the Sensen Papyrus was believed to be the source for the Book of Abraham, and that since the Sensen Papyrus is in fact not the Book of Abraham but an Egyptian Book of Breathings, whatever else the Book of Abraham may be, it is not an accurate translation of an ancient Egyptian text.
- It is asserted that the purpose of the KEP was to provide a visible prop in order to convince people that Joseph could indeed translate Egyptian.
To see citations to the critical sources for these claims, click here
- Background and provenance of the Kirtland Egyptian Papers—
Brief Summary: The Kirtland Egyptian Papers (KEP) are a collection of documents written by various individuals, mostly dating to the Kirtland period of Church history (early- to mid-1830s), constituting some sort of study documents relating to the Joseph Smith Egyptian Papyri. (Click here for full article)∗ ∗ ∗ - Historical LDS approaches to the KEP—
Brief Summary: Critics note at least two evidences which demonstrate an obvious connection between some of the Kirtland Egyptian papers and the Book of Breathings scroll from the Joseph Smith Papyri (JSP). These two evidences are used by critics in an attempt to prove that the existing fragments of the Scroll of Hor is the source of the Book of Abraham and that therefore Joseph was not a prophet. (Click here for full article)∗ ∗ ∗ - What is the purpose of the KEP?—
Brief Summary: For many years, the KEP were not well studied. A variety of possible explanations have been offered by LDS researchers over the years. One of the more recent approaches postulates that the KEP represent an attempt by Joseph and his associates to create a way to encode revelations and other sensitive data in a form approximating "pure language." Research into this theory is ongoing. (Click here for full article)∗ ∗ ∗

Long deployment separations, difficult post-deployment adjustments, frequent moves and major life changes and challenges can make navigating military life difficult. While most families are able to manage the unique demands of military life, some families seem to handle these challenges with more ease. Some families may be naturally more able to address these challenges based on their life experiences, for example. If you are looking for ways to improve your own and your family's resilience, this information may help.
One popular definition of resilience is the ability to withstand, recover and grow in the face of stressors and changing demands. Being resilient doesn't mean you avoid emotional pain and suffering when faced with a crisis. Instead, it means you're able to recover and even grow stronger from the experience. Experts are beginning to discover what makes some people more resilient than others and to identify things we can do to increase resilience in ourselves and our families.
In Strengthening Family Resilience, (The Guilford Press, 2006), resilience specialist Dr. Froma Walsh identifies nine characteristics that resilient families share. These characteristics reveal the family belief systems, organizational patterns and communication/problem-solving skills that foster resilience in adults and children.
If you're currently coping with a stressful situation such as the deployment of a loved one to a combat area or caring for a wounded warrior or if you're suffering from a loss or dealing with a crisis of any kind, there are things you can start doing right now to strengthen your own resilience and model resilience for your children. The American Psychological Association in its publication, The Road to Resilience, recommends 10 ways to become more resilient when dealing with stress or adversity:
Different factors, including temperament and intelligence, influence children's resilience. However, no influence is more important than the parenting they receive. When parents model and teach their children the habits of resilient families, the children will already have many of the skills needed to cope with difficult situations when they occur. Still, during difficult times, children need additional support and attention from parents, even as the parents are dealing with the same difficulties themselves.
You can help build resilience in your children during times of stress or adversity by giving them as much of your time as you can. When you're with them, encourage communication by listening to their concerns and answering their questions with openness, honesty and reassurance.

Tour Guide/Rent-A-Cop Robot Eats Children
Okay, so maybe it doesn't. OR AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT THEY'D HAVE YOU BELIEVE. The Alsok Guard Robot D1 is being put to use in Fukuoka, Japan as tour guide/guard/monster piece of suck. Damn I'm good with the news!
The area's tourist attraction known as Canal City opted to use the decidedly cute and human-friendly services of a Alsok's Guard Robot D1.
In the daytime the robot functions as a kind of tour guide, offering website information and communication in Japanese, English, Chinese and Korean. At night the robot functions as a security guard, ready to alert authorities in case of trouble.
Not to start any wild rumors or anything, but I heard it touched a kid. BURN IT WITH FIRE!

XTERRA Deuces Wild Race ReportBy Circ Toepel, XTERRA Rep Sun, wind and mud were the distinct features of the 2008 race outside of Show Low, AZ. Seton and Debbie Claggett, race directors, found the largest mud hole in all of Fool Hollow to bring the racers through on the bike course. Some loved it, some cursed it, but all agreed it was down and dirty XTERRA style. This race has had a cult following for most of its 5 year existence. Many racers have done the Deuces Wild since day one. A few hardy souls have even survived the "Double Deuce". This twisted adventure begins with a 70.3 or Olympic tri on Saturday and ends with the XTERRA real deal on Sunday. Gina Detolve, one of our XTERRA ambassadors, gritted her teeth through the windy and hot 70.3 tri on Saturday then the XTERRA on Sunday to take 3rd in the Double! The men's Deuceman (70.3) winner had to forfeit his title due to an automatic DQ from a USAT official for his chinstrap being unbuckled just a hair too early. Think about that next time the XREP asks you not to ride your bike in transition! He also did the XTERRA and would have won the double except for that little detail. Racers were covered in mud coming in from the 16 mile bike but since the 5 mile run featured a thigh deep water crossing near the end, they were a little cleaner coming into the finish line. The wind would have felt pretty good on the run had it not been so strong that you felt like you were climbing yet another hill. Even with the wind Benjamin DeWitt ran 35:29 for the fastest of the day. Susan Petronio had the fastest women's run time of 45:32. Carl Abrams was first to reach the shore in the half mile swim in 11:36 with Sage Grossi having the fastest women's time of 15:22. Marcus Hayward blazed the bike course in 1:09 and the women's bike winner was Liz Carrington in 1:22. Sage was also the women's overall winner with a time of 2:29. Her last minute decision to come race certainly paid off! Meiling Yee followed in 2nd place with an impressive 2:32 and Elizabeth Carrington was 3rd in 2:36. Brian Barrett took the men's title in 2:02 followed by a close race for 2nd place, between Clay Moseley in 2:06.36 and Dean Hewson at 2:06.56 Afterwards, racers like Reynaldo Carereo ecstatically proclaimed "this is the best race all year!" He has done all 5 and also did the Deuceman - must be something in the water. Kevin Flynn particularly liked the muddy tunnel and the cool finishers medals. The $30K worth prizes given away at the raffle is reason enough to come enjoy Deuces Wild. One lucky competitor bought extra tickets and walked away with over $3K worth of cool schwag! I doubt if anyone went away empty handed. |

Gonzaga, Dixon Meet Far South |
School Age - Boys |
Gonzaga HS, one of the leading high school rugby teams on the East Coast, met Dixon of California, one of the leading high school rugby teams on the West Coast in, of all places, Argentina this weekend. A Gonzaga 15 lost 29-27 to Centro Naval in an exciting game.
Then Gonzaga took on Chivilcoy, and fell behind 15-0 before tries from Wes Connors and Tristan Lizama made it 15-10. Chivilcoy scored again but then SM Boisse scored and then Steven Beckerly scored a brilliant try to tie the game. Jack Fluery's late penalty secured a victory for Gonzaga. |

Long Island Memories
Volunteers To Be Honored The leadership of the U.S. Congress and The U.S. Conference of Mayors have announced that Freeport has been formally invited to nominate two out-standing leaders in community service, one youth and one adult, to be honored at the National Leadership Forum on Community Service, to be held, in Washington, D.C. from October 16 to October 20, 1991. In a letter addressed to Mayor Dorothy Storm, the four leaders of Congress: Congressman Thomas S. Foley, Speaker of the House, Senator George J. Mitchell, Majority Leader of the Senate, Senator Robert J. Dole, Republican Leader of the Senate and Congressman Robert H. Michel, Republican Leader of the House, said: "Americans are a caring people. Our nation's leaders have long valued the hard work and commitment of volunteers who in so many ways contribute to the well-being of all our citizens. "As the First.Citizen and chief civic leader of Freeport, you more than anyone else, know the selfless individ-uals who have dedicated themselves to improving your community. "Therefore, we ask that you personally award the honor of representing Free-port at the National Leadership Forum on Community Service to one youth and one adult whose exemplary community service most merits national recognition. The leadership .of Congress urged Mayor Storm to "join [them] in this bipartisan effort to promote volunteer-ism and recognize America's most exceptional and caring individuals." Invited speakers at the National Lead-ership Forum include: President George Bush, Elizabeth H. Dole, President of the American Red Cross and actor Bill Cosby. The forum will feature many other noted figures in government and community service. To assist her in selecting the two individuals to be honored, Mayor Storm is asking residents for suggestions. These should be sent to her office by no later than May 15. The information should contain the person's address and phone number and a Brief description as to the nominee's volunteer efforts. Keep in mind that the persons selected will be responsible for all expenses regarding the Washington, D.C. trip. Rec Center Closing Residents are reminded that the Recreation Center will be closed for its annual refurbishing from May 13-26. All "Activity Cards expire as of May 12 except for those rendered when an Annual Plan for the Health Wing was purchased. 1991-1992 Activity Cards may be purchased at the Center during the refurbishing period. Summer Discount Plans/Annual Plans may also be purchased. Registration for summer programming will be held in June. NOTE: Due to the Village's current austerity budget, a separate brochure detailing summer programs at the Center and neighborhood parks cannot be provided to each household through the mails. In its place, the May issue of this "Village News" will be replaced by a special recreation bulletin giving as much information as space allows. More detailed flyers will be available at the Center. EMPF News A Public Information Bulletin FreeP°rt ortrujcean Avenue ie: FReeport 8-4000 •glhujitorm, Mayor ith Mayor: 8:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., every Friday Public Meetings: 8:00 p.m., 1st and 3rd Mondays of the Month - April 1991 - MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR... governor Cuomo MUST NOT shift the burden of New York State's $6-$9 \^Jf billion shortfall to the local municipalities' taxpayers. The Governor has created a $1.5 million deficit in Freeport by a 100% reduction of revenue sharing and senior citizen aid, a 52% cut in youth aid and a 60% cut in CHIPS aid for highway repair. Reproduced is a sample letter for your consideration to be mailed to the legislators listed below: Dear Senator/ 'Assembly person: As a resident of Freeport, I strongly protest the Governor's proposal to cut all revenue sharing to our Village. This will mean a $1.5 million shortfall in Freeport's already adopted budget. That can only mean reduction of the services provided by the Village. It is unfair to shift the State's deficit onto the backs of the overburdened real property taxpayer. It would be far more equitable to raise other taxes which are borne by all, not just the owners of property. Thank you for your support and vote against the Governor's proposal. Very truly yours, Hon. Ralph J. Marino Senate Majority Leader Room 330, State Capitol Albany, NY 12247 Hon. Ronald Stafford Deputy Senate Majority Leader Room 502, State Capitol Albany, NY 12247 Hon.

Campion, Catherine Collins: Village Justice: Michael Solomon Village Clerk: Karen A. Navin; Counsel: William Glacken; Treasurer: Michael Haran Water Regulations In' Effect AI Freeport property owners/ tenants, residential and commer-cial are reminded that the Village, and all Nassau County, remains under a State-mandated cap regarding water pumpage. County and local laws are in effect to conserve water and violators are subject to fines. These laws are jn effect year-round. There is no relationship between the amount of precipitation and the conservation effort as Long Island draws its water from underground, not through a reservoir system. It is illegal to "water, hose, sprinkle or otherwise irrigate any outdoor lawn, field, garden, hedge, shrub or flowers" between the hours of 10 p.m. and 4 a.m. regardless if it is an even or odd-number day of the month. In addition, watering, etc. is prohibited during periods of rain. The use of a hose, or any watering device whatsoever, for flushing or cleaning driveways, sidewalks or streets is prohi-bited at all times. Persons occupying properties with even-numbered addresses may water, etc. only during the hours from 4 a.m. to 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. on the even-numbered days of the month. Persons occupying premises with odd-numbered addresses, or no address, may water, etc. only during the same hours as above and only on odd-numbered days of the month.

Giant Blue Land Crab
Gallery from previous years
Until about 250 BC Archaic natives lived on the Antilles, including Vieques with no ceramics or agriculture. Saladoid people moved up from Venezuela 250 BC – 400AD. They made use of pigmented ceramics, jade, and other semi-precious stones, and they had dogs as companions.
After 400 AD, Vieques housed the Pre-Tanio and Ostionoids people. They used coarser clay with no pigments. In 1200 AD Tanios came about. They were more organized, having larger groups and chiefs.
Vieques was first encountered by Europeans. Columbus found Puerto Rico in 1493. Spanish power in the Caribbean largely ignored after killing most of the inhabitants off. For several centuries Vieques was virtually lawless. The English and the Danes attempted to colonize.
In 1823, Le Guillou went to Vieques, and in 1832, he got 10 years to 'civilize it,' using plantations with French working under the Spanish crown. "The Golden Cup" of Puerto Rico which lasted from 1854-1880 saw opera houses, cinemas, etc. The civilization continued until 1920s.
Puerto Rico became US possession in 1917 as a result of the Spanish-American War, instead of Cuba, because it was more strategic. During WWII, the US military bought 72% of Vieques from landowners and bankruptcy courts. They then built a British fleet base and submarines after Pearl Harbor. This did not go over well with locals.

ThermoPod: Biodegradable cold chain box liners
An alternative to foam-lined coolers and other non-biodegradable shipping containers, ThermoKeeper packaging supports shipments throughout the year.
The outer surface of ThermoKeeper box liner is a biodegradable, waterproof poly film. The inner surface is a biodegradable perforated poly film. A proprietary padding, which is also biodegradable, is sandwiched between the outer and inner films. The insulation is made from a blend of cotton and wool recycled textile fibers that are purified, flocked, and bonded together, producing a soft, natural ultra-insulating material.
The insulation also includes an EPA-approved anti-microbial additive for cross-contamination prevention and absorbent fibers to help draw away unwanted condensation from thawing gel packs and provide auxiliary containment of accidental spills or leakage (helping prevent contamination of an entire payload of sample specimens).
The flocked cotton/wool insulation material is formed into a soft flat panel and is custom-sized and

4 Snapshots
No special theme today, I've had a busy week so last night to clear my head I took my camera for a walk. Here's some snapshots from today and this past month, all from around Tokyo Station of Ginza, early evening. The shot of the Tokyo Station dome is inspired by the poster promoting it that can be found around the city right now. Tokyo Station really is one of my favorite buildings in Japan!

Omaha Symphony Rocks:
Stayin' Alive: One Night of the Bee Gees
When: Saturday, Oct. 26 at 8 p.m.
Where: Holland Performing Arts Center, 13th and Douglas Streets
Tickets: $59
Information: omahasymphony.org or 402-342-3560
* * *
The world's foremost Bee Gees tribute band comes from Canada, calls itself (perhaps inevitably) Stayin' Alive and performs this Saturday with the Omaha Symphony.
If you're not familiar with the "Symphony Rocks" series, it typically matches orchestra with cover band, including previous forays into the music of Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac and the Rolling Stones.
This weekend's installment delivers the irresistible rhythms and shimmering harmonies of the brothers Gibb in all their disco-era glory. You know the hits: "Night Fever." "Jive Talkin'." "You Should Be Dancing." "How Deep Is Your Love." And, of course, "Stayin' Alive," the song made famous by John Travolta in "Saturday Night Fever" and rendered epic by Robert Hays in "Airplane!" All of those hits should find their way onto the set list for Saturday's concert.
Omaha Symphony resident conductor Ernest Richardson leads the orchestra. Ontario musicians Tony Mattina (Barry Gibb), George Manz (Maurice Gibb) and Todd Sharman (Robin Gibb) bring the magic.
In true disco fashion, the night won't have to end there.
A "Pink Out" post-party will take place at the Embassy Suites in the Old Market, a partnership of the Omaha Symphony, the Methodist Estabrook Cancer Center and the Nebraska Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. The event will include free appetizers, drink specials and door prizes, with free parking for concert-goers.

Market Watch: Eat Your Greens
Lulu Meyer, associate director of operations at CUESA, brings us weekly updates for the best of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market—rain (and oh, is it raining) or shine.
Winter greens, packed with good-for-you vitamins, are at their prime right now. Braised, sautéed or wilted in soups they add great texture and flavor to many recipes. With all the the rain and gloomy weather this week I started dreaming about things that are best cooked slowly and eaten out of bowls. At the market I gravitated towards the beautiful greens currently available and found some of my personal favorites.
CUESA's market chef recently demonstrated her recipe for a Spanish tortilla featuring Yukon gold potatoes and stinging nettles that was divine. Nettles have an earthy rich flavor that I just love, especially in a hearty soup or with fresh pasta. They also make for a great winter pesto and make a tasty addition to scrambled eggs. Find them now at Star Route and Heirloom Organic Gardens.
Sometimes called brocolli spigarello or cima di rape, spigarello is a relative of broccoli and a mild and pleasant braising green that is perfect served with creamy white beans or a squeeze of lemon juice, or all by itself with a drizzle of olive oil and a dash of red pepper flakes. You'll find this versatile veggie at County Line's stand.
Dandelion Greens
They can be a tad on the bitter side and are best when balanced with something creamy. I like to sauté mine with olive oil and garlic and top with crumbled goat cheese. Dandelions are also great piled on a grilled cheese sandwich or added to a risotto. You'll find bright green bunches at Dirty Girl Produce.
Red Mustard Greens
Four Sisters Farm always has a great selection of baby greens and this time of year their bunches of Asian red mustard are especially delicious. I like them best on sandwiches or raw in salads, but they are also good when lightly braised and tossed with roasted beets or a bit of sliced ginger and chopped shallots. Find them at the Four Sisters stand each Saturday and Tuesday through the end of March.
