Yoga for Cancer
Yoga postures require us to hold still and to be aware of our bodies. Asana, pranayama, and meditation begin to break down that distance from ourselves and bring us into close contact with our sensations and feelings. Knowing how our bodies really feel, we can notice when we are stressed and can make decisions about our activities and our attitudes that can change our relationship to our cancer healing. That is, yoga can help us open up to different ways of integrating our experience. For example, when faced with a challenging medical procedure, rather than tensing ourselves against it or going away mentally, because of our yoga practice we may be able to relax and welcome the procedure, thus minimizing its stressful effects.
Eileen Hadidian, a professional musician and music professor, responded to her own difficult medical experiences by urging oncologists at local hospitals to enlist the aid of nutritionists in helping patients mitigate the effects of cancer treatments. A slender woman, bald from chemo, Eileen looks at me with large, alert eyes. As we talk in the comfortable living room at the Ting-Sha retreat, she smiles often. She leans back gratefully into the couch cushions. Her cancer now infiltrates her spine, and she has told me that her back hurts most of the time. But yoga, which she studies in classes at a community center near her home, helps her tolerate this pain.
"I went back to doing yoga a month after surgery—lumpectomy and lymph node dissection," she says. "I was sore, but within a half hour of going back to my yoga class, my arm went from being able to go this far"—she holds her arm just a few inches away from her body—"to going up [higher]. And so I said, 'Bingo!' The class caters to all levels. What I did was I just tailored it to what I could do, and then week after week I was able to do more and more."
"The instructor was aware of your condition?" I ask. "She was trusting you not to push yourself beyond where you needed to go?"
"Exactly. She was very good about saying to me, 'Just do what you can. Follow your body, follow your intuition.' So that's what I did. And it felt great. I breezed through radiation, had minimal side effects. The fatigue that comes with radiation set in just during the last week. So my recovery was relatively easy. And I attribute a lot of that to the yoga. Along with meditation, visualization, acupuncture, and herbs."
Three years after the radiation treatments, when she began to experience severe back pain and discovered her cancer had metastasized to her spine, Eileen had to stop going to the yoga class. But then a chance experience allowed her to adapt her yoga practice to suit her changed condition.
"I had a one-time yoga session with a woman, the mother of one of my young music students, who is training to be a yoga teacher. We had a very gentle session where she gave me about four different postures that I could do. This was back when I had a lot more pain. She propped me up with pillows so when I did Child's Pose it was not the regular Child's Pose but one that was supported. I've been doing those postures ever since.

Detroit turns to 18-game winner Verlander vs. White Sox
DETROIT -- The weight on the mighty right shoulder of Justin Verlander just grew a lot heavier. But if the Tigers have to ride the fate of their season on one game Sunday, it's fitting they ride it with him."One hundred sixty-one games ... it comes down to one game," catcher Gerald Laird said. Whether it's a masterpiece or a grind-out game, whether they're uptight or loose, the Tigers just need to come out on the winning end. With Detroit and Minnesota now tied atop the American League Central, just about everything rides on Sunday -- no magic numbers, no what-if scenarios, no talk of when a Division Series would begin, no rah-rah speeches. "These guys have been in. Some of these guys have gone to the World Series," manager Jim Leyland said. "If there was some magic talk that I thought would help, I'd give them a magic talk. The Detroit Tigers know that to continue the season, they have to most likely win [Sunday]." If both the Tigers and Twins win or they both lose, they'll give the Metrodome one more game Tuesday at 5 p.m. ET for a one-game playoff. If one team wins Sunday and the other loses, that squad will claim the AL Central and meet the Yankees in the AL Division Series. After Friday night's loss, Leyland went around the Tigers' clubhouse and told his players to assume they wouldn't get any help, that the Twins would win Saturday and Sunday. Now that Detroit lost sole command of the division, the players met on their own after Saturday's loss and talked much about the same thing. "Do you want to play on," Laird said, "or do you want to go home? I'm sure everyone's going to come in ready to play tomorrow, and I expect to win." Five days ago, Verlander's eight innings helped the Tigers avoid falling into a first-place tie with the Twins. Now, the teams are even, and Detroit needs Verlander to ensure that its season doesn't end Sunday. The tuneup for the postseason that the Tigers hoped to give their ace has now become potentially the game that knocks them out of the postseason if they can't pull it out. To add a little spice to the mix, it's far from an easy matchup against a White Sox team playing with nothing to lose and playing with a history of success against Verlander until this year, when he has tossed two gems against them. A Tigers offense that was starting to produce in the clutch has scored one run in its past 19 innings heading into a matchup with John Danks, who has nine quality starts in his past 10 innings, including a complete-game three-hitter. If there was ever a time for a No. 1 starter, this is it. And as stunned as the Tigers feel about their precarious situation, it's Verlander that gives them reason for confidence. "He's our ace," third baseman Brandon Inge said. "That's what you have him for." He was there Tuesday night, when he lasted eight innings and 129 pitches to thwart a Twins comeback and keep Minnesota from tying the division that night. Verlander has shown a way of making his team play great behind him when he gets rolling. Right now, the Tigers are looking for a win, however it comes. "We need to win," shortstop Adam Everett said. "It doesn't matter how we get it. It doesn't matter how ugly or how pretty it is. We just need to win." It's a historic turn. Three days ago, the Tigers had a chance to finish off the AL Central if they could beat the Twins at Comerica Park. Now, one more loss, and they could be finished. "I hope we get tight, to be honest with you," Leyland said. "We've done everything we can to make them aware of the [race], to embrace it, enjoy it. For whatever reason, it hasn't seemed to work. Maybe if they tense up a little bit, maybe they'll be better. I don't know." No team in Major League history has led a division or league by three games with four games to play and not won. Nor has any team that led its division or league continuously since at least May 10, as the Tigers have done, lost it in the final week, according to STATS. But once the Twins beat Royals ace Zack Greinke on Saturday afternoon and the Tigers fell to the White Sox at night, the momentum shifted. As if the White Sox haven't proven a challenging enough foe for him over the years, Verlander now arguably has to pitch against history. But obviously, he can't think that way. Nor can the Tigers feel like just a couple of runs will be enough for Verlander to carry. "You can't come in here with that attitude," Laird said. "I figure we've got to come in here and jump on the board quick. I feel when we get going and we score first, we have big innings early. If we can get Verlander a three-, four-, five-run lead and take the pressure off a little bit, I think it'll be fine. But we have to come in here ready to swing the bats and get off to a good start, give Verlander that early cushion." Laird went so far as to say he still feels they're in the driver's seat. They control their own fate, and they have their best pitcher going. They can still win out and take the crown, but Sunday now is the first step. Pitching matchup
CWS: LHP John Danks (13-10, 3.69 ERA)
During Monday's 6-1 victory over the Indians at Progressive Field, Danks accomplished two personal goals. The left-hander hurled his first complete game as a professional, and he set a single-season high in victories at 13 -- a total that figures to lead the White Sox in 2009. Danks will make one more start in search of another goal, which is reaching 200 innings pitched in 2009. Danks enters the game against the Tigers needing 4 2/3 innings to reach that target for the first time in his three-year career. Danks is one of just three pitchers in the history of the White Sox to make 25 starts in each of his first three seasons with the team. He has a 0-1 record against Detroit this season. DET: RHP Justin Verlander (18-9, 3.45 ERA)
Verlander missed out on a quality start Tuesday night against the Twins, but his eight innings and four runs allowed held onto what was once a five-run lead.
Magglio Ordonez has an 11-game hitting streak, during which he's batting .450 (18-for-40). His .416 average since Sept. 1 leads all AL players. He's also 11-for-20 lifetime against Danks, with three doubles, a homer and six RBIs. ... Carlos Guillen is 4-for-9 off Danks. ... The six stolen bases allowed by the Tigers on Saturday marked their highest total since the Angels swiped six on August 17, 2003. It's tied for the highest total against the Tigers since at least 1954. ... Placido Polanco's eighth-inning RBI broke a string of 27 consecutive scoreless innings from White Sox pitchers.

"Glee" Star Darren Criss' Listen Up! Concert Tour Plays New York City June 27
By Adam Hetrick
"Glee" and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying star Darren Criss' summer tour, Listen Up!, plays a sold-out June 27 concert at Roseland Ballroom.
The Listen Up! tour launched in late May at San Francisco's Fillmore. Fans can expect to hear new, original material from the performer's forthcoming album. A release date for the album has not been announced.
The concert also gives fans the chance to hear songs Criss performed on "Glee" and in his Starkid shows. Material from his EP "human" will also be included.
The final tour dates follow:
June 27, New York, NY at Roseland Ballroom
Criss also wrote and starred in A Very Potter Musical and A Very Potter Sequel, based on the "Harry Potter" series. His "Glee" cover of the Katy Perry hit "Teenage Dream" debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts, a first for the series. Criss has also been seen on the television series "Eastwick," "Cold Case" and "Archer."
He made a splash with his Broadway debut in the 50th anniversary revival of How to Succeed, selling out his first performance after he took over the role of J. Pierrepont Finch for original star Daniel Radcliffe ("Harry Potter"). His three-week engagement proved to be box-office gold for producers, with increased ticket sales and several sold-out shows.

A tiny snake as slender as a pen forced the grounding of a Japan-bound Qantas flight in the Australian city of Sydney overnight, stranding hundreds of passengers.
The non-venomous reptile, about 8 inches long, was found near the doorway of a Boeing 747-400 bound for Tokyo on Sunday night, a Qantas spokeswoman told AFP.
"The snake was taken to quarantine to determine where it came from," she said.
The plane had been on the tarmac in Sydney for most of Sunday after completing a flight from Singapore, and the snake was found by air crew before any passengers boarded.
It was uncertain where the reptile had come from or what type of snake it was.
All 370 passengers were booked into hotels overnight and a replacement flight left Sydney on Monday morning.
It is the second snake incident for Qantas this year. A 9-foot python hitched a ride from the tropical Australian city of Cairns to Papua New Guinea's Port Moresby in January.
The python had been tucked into the plane's wing before takeoff, and amazed passengers watched from the window as it engaged in a life-or-death struggle to maintain its grip in fierce winds and zero temperatures.
It was still on the aircraft when it landed in PNG but had died during the journey.
A freight pilot was forced to make an emergency landing in northern Australia in April 2012 after a snake slithered from the dashboard of his plane.
Australia is home to 20 of the world's 25 most venomous snakes, including the entire top ten, according to the University of Melbourne's Australia Venom Research Unit.

Still upset about bag ban
Original post made by Resident on Jun 18, 2013
What about our newspapers, can they be put in a bag or will they have to get wet?
What about dry cleaners, will our clean clothes have to be put in paper at a 10c charge?
What about buying expensive suits and dresses, will they have to be put in paper - in the rain?
I miss my plastic bags which I reused all the time. Great for putting messy shoes after sports. Great for kids to take swim things to school for PE and keep the backpacks dry. Great for packing shoes when traveling. Great for using for trash. Great for donating home grown fruit and veg to neighbors and friends. Great for donations to charity and kerbside pickups. Great for donations to Goodwill.
Sad news, indeed.

If the slobs didn't keep throwing their plastic bags into our streams and oceans, this ban would not be necessary. Ask your local park rangers how many bags they had to fish out of the baylands before this ban went into place.

> Ask your local park rangers how many bags they had to fish out of the baylands before this ban went into place.
Ha ... that's a good one! I rarely see a park ranger in the baylands ... and I go out there all the time, let alone a park ranger that would fish a plastic bag out of the water. This interesting statement sure is not in line with what I see when I go out to the baylands for a walk almost daily.

I have been to a dept store (Macy's, probably) in recent times with several relevant experiences:
As is occasionally done by most of us, I purchased a pair of lady's shoes (in a box with lid). I was offered to purchase a large paper bag with handles (that customarily used to be given out without issue).
I have tried several things:
Clunkily carry the box/loose lid and try to show a receipt (so someone doesn't think I am walking out w/o paying) - be sure to get them to print a receipt. Decline a bag.
Method #2 - PAY for the offered bag and find out they are giving you a used, wrinkly bag (that is then hard to re-use as I would have always previously done in many years of shopping at dept. stores and receiving bags..)
Method #3 bring my OWN bag, clunky to bring in when clothes and shoe shopping and trying to keep folded under my arm -- and not necessarily a good fit for those of us who are tall and have large-sized shoes.
I haven't experienced yet what will happen when it turns out to be raining and I (and thousands of other women) are exiting Macy's or similar, holding a couple of hangers with nice, new dresses on them and trying not to get our newly purchased items wet as we run back to our cars in the parking lot.In past, one could get the items carefully folded and placed in a large paper shopping bag with handles OR covered with plastic (like drycleaning plastic). I would always recycle or reuse such bags.

Review from 12/18/2012: McKenzie Brewhouse in Glen Mills, PA was in a fork in the road and hard to pull into at night, but walking up and seeing the tanks made it worth the trip since I was in the area. It's a big place with a decent sized bar area, as well as separate dining areas so this could handle big crowds. Overall it looked clean.
Atmosphere was very laid back and casual with an after work crowd lingering on a Tuesday night. Music was playing, TV's all had games and ESPN on and it had an open feel to the place. Very basic sports bar decor, perfect to just sit at the bar alone and drink.
Bartender was OK with the personality of a stick, and didn't offer up any beer explanations and seemed to care less, but he was attentive so that's all I cared about since it's a brewpub and explains all the offerings in the menu.
Food was edible; had a bowl of gumbo that was decent and a crab-cake dinner, which both went well with the Application IPA. The gumbo was the highlight of the meal, so I would not make this a food destination. They had 6 standard beers on tap representing all of the basics and 2 seasonals, so the variety was decent. They also had a bottled winter old ale which sounded very interesting. The IPA I had was average in every way.
Overall it was better than sitting in my hotel room, but I'm doubtful I would come back here. The place was boring. The patrons all seemed boring, the bingo announcer was boring, the music was boring and I almost had to check to see if the bartender had a pulse. Beats going to a funeral or old age home, but not by much. Don't mean to offend anyone, but this is an honest assessment of my night at this place.

I enjoyed the evening with my wife, daughter and her boyfriend that just graduated from college. Myself and the boyfriend ordered the sampler which offered the 6 standards and two seasonals.
The seasonals were pretty decent (experiment a little more please!!!) along with the oatmeal stout. I really enjoyed the American pale ale and the IPA, but the "light" tasted just a little bit better than water...sorry but after trying the APA and IPA the light really was a non-entity!!!! The Belgain wit was nice, but nothing special.
I ordered the wings with bbq sauce and they were okay. They were not really meaty, but the sauce more than made up for it. Very tasty!!!!
The sampler gave a decent overview of what McKenzie's has to offer, but I felt that most of the offered fare was over carbonated. The IPA and APA really stood out, while the seasonals were nice, but didn't really make me want to jump up and say, "I want that!!!" They were enough to enjoy, but want to see more 'umph' in the brews.
The prices were reasonalble, and the atmosphere at the bar area was great, the server was very good, but I didn't like the fact that he describe their beers by comparing them to known stables as Sierra Nevada. Hype up your beers!!!! Sell them, not someone elses!!!
Overall, I enjoyed the experience and would recommend it to anyone passing through Chadds Ford, PA. The service was extremely good, just need to sell thier own beers!!!

Visited McKenzie in September 2011 while in Philly for a wedding; this is actually where the rehearsal dinner was held. Anyways, the service was slightly above average for a busy Friday night, but the beers here were not so good. I tried the Oatmeal Stout, English Brown, Wit, and Pale Ale and I'd say the average of all four combined couldn't be above 2.5. Either way, such goes life with a small joint like this. The food was fairly decent for a buffet-type spread, but I could get over how simply off the beers were. I guess some places stay in business because people don't know what the quality of what they are drinking. Maybe their lines were unclean or something was funky with their taps, but I just thought the beer was off. The bar area was a decent size and the dining room seating area was quite large as well. Worth a stop if you want some quality food, but maybe skip the beer unless your just looking to tick some stuff.

Went here about a week ago with my girlfriend to have dinner and try a few of their beers. We attended the Glen Mills location.
Atmosphere: The atmosphere was simply average. Just your average run-of-the-mill brew-house/eatery, nothing overly fancy but nothing horrible either. Where we sat we could see the chefs cooking in the open kitchen and the beautiful brick pizza oven. However, the lighting was a bit dim and the place had this overall shoddyness to it.
Quality: The quality was good. It wasn't dirty or anything; the floors were clean, we had silverware waiting for us at our table that was clean, and nothing was really dirty or anything like that. As stated above, though, the place, for some reason, felt shoddy, like dim and drab.
Service: The service was very courteous and kind, and wasn't bothersome by asking us how we were doing a hundred times. If I was empty on a beer, the waitress was right there to see if I needed a refill. The food and drinks came very fast, as well.
Selection: The beer selection was nice. They had their usual beers on tap: McKenzie Light, McKenzie Wit - Belgian Wheat, Saison Vantour - Farmhouse Ale, American Pale Ale, English Brown Ale, and Oatmeal Stout. They also had various seasonals, as well as expensive special barrel-aged beers for purchase. I got the Saison Vantour, English Brown Ale, and Oatmeal Stout, all which were delicious.
Food: The food at this place tastes amazing! I got a caramelized onion and bleu cheese burger that was absolutely delicious. My girlfriend got the chicken pot pie, which was probably the best pot pie I had ever tried. The only thing that is keeping their food from a perfect score is the fact that my girlfriend got a piece of a plastic bag in her pot pie. Not only did they make her a new pot pie, but they comped us for it as well.
Value: Everything here is reasonably priced. Their beers are $4.50 for a pint, $4.25 for a select few. The food is also very reasonably priced. Nothing wrong here.
Overall: I would definitely go back here. I had a nice experience, aside from the plastic incident. However, I would still definitely go back for the great beer and amazing food.

Located on a wedge between the northern and southern lanes of a major highway, McKenzie's appears as an average suburban non-chain restaurant.
Unassuming, clean interior - large bar to the right, high ceilings and minimal maount of fixtures give a very open and airy feel. Dinning area to the left feels quite comfortable and welcoming, again with minimal decor and fixtures. Open kitchen to the rear of the dinning room adds a splash of atmosphere. The brewhouse is visable from the front parking lot and dinning room interior and is quite modern and organized.
Beer list consisted of 6 regulars (approchable and straightforward for the most part) and 3 seasonals (more creative). Small bottle list focuses on the widely available, but highly rated Belgians such as Chimay, Orval etc. Good beer all around.
Food menu is quite expansive (appetizers, burgers, pizzas, sandwhiches, steaks etc.) and a slight tick above your normal pub grub in quality and composition. Ample portion sizes and great preperation (one of the few places to cook a burger to the correct medium rare i prefer).
Service is knowledgeable and friendly - as a beer geek, still uncomfortable hearing everything described as ale/lager, hoppy/not hoppy, light/heavy from a server, but he isnt supposed to know anyones level of knowledge.
Overall, a great little stop off when in the area. There should be a beer for everyne, a food item for everyone and a relaxed atmosphere. All a rediculously good price - all the regular brews were under $5 for a pint.

Sparks Police have a man behind bars on indecent exposure charges Sunday afternoon.
Police say it happened around 12:45 p.m. on the 2300 block of Greenbrae Drive. Officers responded to a report of a man exposing himself to children who were walking by his vehicle.
When officers arrived on scene, the suspect, identified as 48-year old Robert Joseph Jones of Sparks was seen leaving the area in a dark red 1996 two-door Chevrolet Blazer with Nevada handicap license plates.
Jones was soon stopped by officers and was arrested after admitting to the offense. Two 14-year old girls were identified as victims. After an investigation, officers learned Jones was seen in the same area in the past, along with the area around Cannan Elementary School near Silverada Boulevard.
Sparks Police is urging anyone who sees someone loitering in areas where children frequent to immediately contact police.

A 22-year-old suburban Chicago man has been sentenced to 105 years in prison for killing a man after a bar fight.
In a statement Friday, Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez said the murder occurred outside a Broadview bar in October 2009.
Prosecutors say Taurean Decatur of Maywood was among a group of people who began fighting inside the bar. The fight then moved to the parking lot. They say Decatur got a gun from his car and fired three shots at Maurice Orange, killing him.
Decatur was convicted last month. He was sentenced Friday and placed into the custody of the Illinois Department of Corrections.

One south Georgia school board goes on record opposing the charter school amendment.
The Thomas County Board of Education unanimously adopted a resolution against the constitutional amendment that would set up a state commission that could set up local charter schools.
Superintendent Dr. Dusty Kornegay says that would drain resources from traditional public schools.
"The board sees the state's taking over the process of chartering schools as a loss of local control and the second issue, which is perhaps more important is financial."
Here is the full resolution-
Thomas County Board of Education Resolution in Support of Quality Public Education
The Thomas County Board of Education believes that a system of quality public education is one of the essential foundations of America's past, current, and future greatness; and
The Thomas County Board of Education believes that quality public education for every child, regardless of heritage or circumstance, is the key to equality, freedom, and the realization of individual potential; and
The Thomas County Board of Education believes that without quality public education a great divide will exist between the educated and the uneducated, corresponding to a divide between the prosperous and the impoverished; and
The state of Georgia's economic condition has resulted in a significant decline in state funding for the public schools that serve the educational needs of over ninety percent of Georgia's children; and
This severe funding challenge has caused Thomas County Schools to experience ongoing increases in class sizes, fewer instructional resources, reduced compensation for teachers due to four consecutive years of employee furloughs and reduced work schedules, and
Advocates for a system of school vouchers, state-approved charter schools, and other educational options that divert public school funds away from local community schools support the operation of private or for-profit charter schools; and
The erosion of financial support for public education serves to deepen the inequalities and diminish the opportunities for every Georgia child to be well-educated, achieve the American dream, and contribute to this nation's greatness; and
The Thomas County Board of Education believes that the Georgia Supreme Court ruled correctly in declaring it unconstitutional for an appointed state commission to approve charter schools over the objection of the duly elected local board of education, which is accountable to the taxpaying public; and
The Thomas County Board of Education opposes the state's establishment of a separate system of state-authorized public charter schools that are funded through a funding formula that unilaterally takes critically needed funds from local public school districts and redirects them to the state-controlled charter schools, thereby further debilitating the significantly underfunded existing system of funding for public education for all Georgia students; now, therefore;
Be It Resolved
That the Thomas County Board of Education urges the Governor and State Legislators to commit to adequately fund quality public school education for all K-12 students in Thomas County and throughout Georgia; to acknowledge the countless, unheralded successes of public schools in the state; to cease efforts to erode local control of public schools, and to encourage the innovation, flexibility, and accountability that are necessary for Georgia's public schools to continuously improve; and
Be It Further Resolved:
That the Thomas County Board of Education does hereby request that voters of the State of Georgia oppose the Constitutional amendment relative to state approval of charter schools, which will be on the November 6, 2012 General Election ballot; and
Be It Further Resolved:
That the Thomas County Board of Education authorizes and directs the Superintendent to transmit an official copy of this resolution to the Governor, appropriate State Representatives and Senators, the State Board of Education, and the Georgia Department of Education.
This 29th day of September, 2012.

to continue the success of the S.A.F.E. Program by further reducing fires deaths in Massachusetts and increasing the fire safety of older adults because people over 65 are most at risk of dying in fires in our state.
Public Fire & Life Safety Educator Course– The next Public and Life Safety Educator (PF & LSE) classes will be held at the Holden Fire Department January 16-17, 23-24 & 30, 2014 and at the Holyoke Fire Department March 6-7, 13-14, and 20, 2014.. It is a 5-day program designed to provide a community with the basis for a solid public education program and is designed, at a minimum, to properly train the fire department's lead S.A.F.E. educator. Topics covered include: child development; how people learn, focusing on different learning styles and the seven intelligences; lesson planning; curricula review; public speaking; program evaluation; and connecting lessons to the curriculum frameworks. The program concludes with students presenting a segment of instruction on a given topic for a specified age group. Registrations for PF&LSE are priority selection.
In the next five months DFS will be hosting a series of train-the-trainer workshops on NFPA's Remembering When: A Fire and Fall Prevention Program for Older Adults. This is in support of the new Senior SAFE Program. These 3.5 hour training sessions will be offered around the Commonwealth in a variety of locations. The first one will be 9:00 a.m. on February 24, 2014 at the Department of Fire Services in The Link.
Are Students Truly Learning What We Think We Are Teaching Them?
Evaluation is key to the success of the S.A.F.E. Program. How do we know if the students really learned what we thought we taught them? Are they getting all the key concepts by the time they reach certain milestones? DFS has guidance and resources to help you evaluate your educational programs.
S.A.F.E. FY 2012 Annual Report
This statewide annual report of the Student Awareness of Fire Education Program includes exciting results from the second year using the 3rd grade evaluation tool. It allows us to prove that students are learning what we think we are teaching and to know where there is room for improvement. Massachusetts may well be the first state in the nation that is conducting this sort of rigorous, consistent evaluation of its fire education.

WARWICKSHIRE, United Kingdom -- It's time to put on your really pointy shoes. The world pole climbing championships were held over the weekend in rural England.
Not for the faint of heart, competitors scaled 82 feet tall poles to see who could do it the fastest.
The current world record holder won the final with a time just over 10 seconds.
The sport is becoming so popular some competitors were going the extra mile for an edge, even using very expensive titanium spikes.
Organizers said the sport was started by a group of bored and lonely forest rangers.

Delphos police were called to a car/motorcycle incident at approximately 5:59 p.m. Saturday.
Reports indicate Tiffany M.

SealLine Pro Pack
4-star: 0

Used in BWCA for an 11-day trip. No problems! My wife…
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $120
Used in BWCA for an 11-day trip. No problems!
- Strong
- Water tight
- Comfortable enough
- Legitimate harness and hipbelt
- Hard to see inside (black interior)
My wife and I used this pack on an 11-day trip in the Boundary Waters. During this time she and I both portaged loads in excess of 70 lbs, covering distances of up to one mile.
While this pack has nowhere near the amount of support needed to to use as a dedicated backpack, for a portage pack, I haven't found anything better. The hip belt and shoulder harness are adequate to the task for short (.25-1.5 mile) hauls that one typically encounters while on a canoe trip.
Due to the size of the pack, and the fact that the top will extend higher than one's shoulders, I don't recommend for solo paddlers trying to 'single-track' (I.E. carrying this pack PLUS canoe on one's shoulders). Our strategy was to have the wife carry this monster with most of the bulky/heavy gear and food, while I single-tracked with the canoe and a smaller (and not nearly as nice) Seattle Sports portage pack. We were able to adjust the harness and belt quick enough to switch between a 5'7" 135# woman and a 6'2" 225# man, as often as we needed, with a minimum of fuss.
The interior is HUGE and will easily accommodate two Garcia bear canisters standing upright next to each other in the bottom. The side straps and webbing are tough enough for me to lift the pack fully loaded up to her back to help her put it on (with her carrying 70 pounds, its the least I can do!).
The exterior appears to made out of a hypalon type material (used in WW rafts), and has held up fine after being dropped and dragged over rocks and trees.
A great buy at $120, and made our trip much more enjoyable.
I have used the SealLine Pro Pack 115 numerous times…
Price Paid: under $125
I have used the SealLine Pro Pack 115 numerous times on my trips to the Quetico where our crew does numerous portages- some difficult. I continue to pick up more Pro packs for my trips because the pack is durable and equipment arrives DRY. This is one awesome product.
Excellent large dry bag. Perfect for canoe camping…
Price Paid: $120
Excellent large dry bag. Perfect for canoe camping trips. We use these bags for our canoe camping trips. High quality construction, easy to pack, seal up, load and unload. Keeps all contents dry. A must have as you can load all your gear into these bags making for fewer contents within your canoe. Easy to carry for portage or just carrying to your camp site.
We took two of these bags on our Everglades National Park backcountry canoe camping trip. Loaded the bags with tent, sleeping bags/pads, clothes, cooking gear, food, etc. We love these bags and plan to purchase another for our multi canoe trip this winter. It sure beats unloading 8 or 10 smaller dry bags and although we have not yet dumped our loaded canoe it sure would make it much easier to "re-load" should that ever happen. If you canoe camp this is a must have item for your trip.

Climate Science
- Climate Science
Cities set benchmark for fossil-fuel use
With a growing awareness of the impact of burning fossil fuels, cities developed an environmental program to take on some of the responsibility, columnist Ray Johnson writes.
Carbon dioxide emissions our legacy to the future
As we continue to consume carbon in its various forms, we are indeed delivering a legacy to future generations, columnist Ray Johnson writes.
Arctic Climate changing fast
Global ice melt is an indication that human-caused climate impacts are occurring faster than we expected, columnist Ray Johnson writes.
Planetary gases may have Earthly effect
Venus has a pronounced "runaway greenhouse" effect. This is the same greenhouse gas, the rising levels of which concerns climate scientists today, Ray Johnson writes.
Denmark: Unified on climate and energy plan for future
The Commission on Climate Change Policy found that Denmark can remove fossil fuels from its energy system completely, including transportation, by 2050, without the need for nuclear energy or use of carbon capture and storage, writes Raymond Johnson.
Past temperature changes have current meaning
Data show that about 56 million years ago our planet got very warm. Is this the beginning of a fairy tale? Not really, says Ray Johnson.
Higher temps, drought appear; may be new norm
Actively publishing climate scientists have expressed concern about GHGs that are bringing about climate change. However, many in Congress do not believe that GHGs are a concern and no actions are being taken to reduce these levels.
Climate change, extreme weather create perfect storms
Since warm water heats the air above it — and warmer air holds more water vapor — the stage is set for events to happen, says columnist Ray Johnson.
Earth's climate system: a study in process
It may not fit with our impression or experience but globally, March was one of hottest months on record says columnist Ray Johnson.
Climate Science: Indicators of Human Fingerprint on Climate Change
Two central questions in Climate Science are: is our planet warming, and, if so, are human activities primarily responsible? Ray Johnson looks to the 2007 Report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for answers.

Jordan Garfinkle - Moving Forward: Personal Transportation and the Environment
We love to be mobile. As Americans, we're accustomed to traveling when and where we want, and cars afford us the freedom to do just that. More than just a means of transportation, cars have become a symbol of the American Dream. However, the way we fuel our mobility is unsustainable, threatening our planet and our communities. Fortunately, a number of alternatives are gaining traction across the country and around the world, including electric cars, plug-in vehicles, high-speed rail and other technologies. Amid endless information, the facts are clouded regarding these alternatives. How can our choices, planning, and long-term vision regarding transportation help foster a sustainable future for Nebraska? Understanding the challenges and opportunities are critical as we pursue a future with clean, safe, reliable and affordable transportation. Jordan Garfinkle will discuss personal transportation and the environment; we hope you join us to explore these issues.

Steve Rodie - Sustainable Water Use and Management in Urban and Rural Landscapes: Applications for Homeowners, Institutions and Communities
Landscape water use and management is important when rain is plentiful as well as in drought. Stormwater (rainwater that runs off any surfaces - roofs, roads, parking lots) can be managed in your home or business to mitigate flooding, enhance water quality and protect water resources - while also benefiting your landscapes. Effective stormwater management using landscape plants and soils - including "green" infrastructure and other sustainable strategies - can be applied in the home, institution or community level. In this presentation, you will also learn about water-wise plant types, planting design, and other strategies to help your yard survive and stay beautiful even when rain is slim. It is planting with conservation in mind.

Dr. Mary Ferdig - The Art of Sustainability Leadership: Communication, Complexity and Change
What do we mean by sustainability, leadership, complexity and change? How do our experiences inform what we see, think and do? Are we each ready to take responsibility for (1) challenging our hardwired assumptions, beliefs and behaviors, and (2), rediscovering connection and meaning through communication and action? These are serious questions for all of us – the "sustainability choir" as well as the rest of society. Dr. Mary Ferdig presents a framework for leadership communication, action and change that can be adapted to all sorts of situations encountered by Sustainability Leaders of every shape and size!

HMV announces North-East shop closures
Updated 1:14pm Thursday 7th February 2013 in News By Andy Richardson
HMV branches in Durham, Stockton, South Shields and Teesside Park are being axed as administrators for the troubled DVD and music chain announced plans to shut shops in the coming weeks.
Stores will continue to trade, however, it is expected that closures will take place over the next one to two months, administrators said today.
HMV went into administration last month, putting 240 shops and about 4,120 jobs at risk. A rescue plan is being drawn up which would leave it between 120 and 160 shops. Last week, it was confirmed that about 190 jobs had been shed across HMV's head office and distribution network. About 930 jobs are at risk across the UK.
Nick Edwards, Joint Administrator, said: "As part of our ongoing review of HMV's financial position, we have now completed a review of the store portfolio and have identified 66 loss making stores for closure. This step has been taken in order to enhance the prospects of securing the business' future as a going concern.
"We continue to receive strong support from staff and are extremely grateful to them for their commitment during an understandably difficult period. All other key stakeholders remain very supportive and I continue to be hopeful of securing a future for the restructured business."
The 66 stores identified for closure are in:
Ashton-under-Lyne, Ballymena, Barnsley, Bayswater, Belfast Boucher Road, Belfast Forestside, Bexleyheath, Birkenhead, Birmingham Fort, Blackburn, Boston, Bournemouth Castlepoint, Bracknell, Burton-upon-Trent, Camberley, Chesterfield, Coleraine, Craigavon, Croydon Centrale, Derry, Dumfries, Durham, Edinburgh Fort, Edinburgh Gyle Centre, Edinburgh Ocean, Edinburgh Princes Street, Edinburgh St James, Falkirk, Fulham, Glasgow – Fort, Glasgow – Silverburn, Glasgow Braehead, Huddersfield, Kirkcaldy, Leamington Spa, Leeds White Rose, Lisburn, Loughborough, Luton, Manchester 90, Moorgate, Newry, Newtonabbey, Orpington, Rochdale, Scunthorpe, South Shields, Speke Park, St Albans, St Helens, Stockton-on-Tees, Tamworth, Teesside, Telford, Trocadero, Wakefield, Walsall, Walton-on-Thames, Wandsworth, Warrington, Watford, Wellingborough, Wigan, Wood Green, Workington, Wrexham.

The Hall's 4th Annual Okto-BEER-fest by Moe - almost 2 years ago
"Every year we have a party to celebrate good friends, food and times. This is a party that actually started back when I was in college and have continued the tradition once we bought a house. It is our 4th year having the party and last year there was a big demand for t-shirts. By ordering through Custom Ink we were able to keep our costs down for the tshirts and design an awesome tshirt very easily. Everyone loved them and we can't wait to design our 5th Okto-BEER-fest tshirts next year!"

The simple way: one step at a time. =)
Okay, that's not actually so simple. However, try to do too many things at once and you'll fail at them all.
Start out slow. All the little bits that people have recommended are good, but you have to put them in the right place.
First of all, content is king. Without substance there is no point of your site and it'll never grow (would you subscribe to a magazine that has a couple ads and a couple chunks article snippets from other articles?).
Once you've started building up a fair amount of regularly updated content, ensure that your website is well built. This kind of falls under SEO, but not the SEO that many people mention. The keys to real SEO (versus black hat SEO like link farms). The highlights are:
- good content which is written for humans (not search engines)
- semantic (meaningful) and well written HTML
(You can find tons of posts with much more in-depth information in the SEO information).
Once your site is starting to make some money, you may consider investing this money into paid advertising and marketing on relevant sites (no links and stuff, but real ads like on Sitepoint).
From there, it's just kind of rinse and repeat and you'll slowly grow if all goes well.Xazure.Net - My Blog - About Programming and Web Development

The professionals at Doctor's Hospital told us every winter they see patients who burn themselves, by doing every day things trying to stay warm.
"As it gets colder, everybody wants to be warmer, obviously," said Kevin Lack, a physician's assistant at the JMC Burn Center.But for some who are not careful, they may get burned."These disasters occur because of faulty equipment they're using or clothing being to close to space heaters or using accelerant to light any fire," Lack said.At the root of many of the cold weather-related burns and fires is heating equipment. Officials say the easiest way to prevent this is by creating a safety zone around the heating unit."It is recommended that you have a safety zone, where you keep all combustible items at least 3 feet away from the heat source or the space heater," said Lack.But getting burned by fire is not the only risk when temperatures drop. "Your skin tissue can get frost bitten or freeze," Lack said.Frostbite, which happens when body parts are exposed to extremely cold temperatures, can cause serious problems, even amputation."Early signs of it will be prickly feeling or tingling in your feet or toes - or face or fingers or ears or nose," Lack said. "If the body part is not frozen, do not thaw it unless you can keep it thawed and use warm water: 104,108 degrees Fahrenheit."
Medical professionals said you cannot be too cautious with burns or frostbite. If you have any questions about it, get it checked out. Often the earlier it can be treated, the better the outcome.

Welcome to the CFS-NEES web page. CFS-NEES is the shortened name for the NSF project: NEESR-CR: Enabling Performance-Based Seismic Design of Multi-Story Cold-Formed Steel Structures.Lightweight cold-formed steel (CFS) framing is a unique and effective building solution for low and mid-rise structures, but one in which much remains to be understood for the system to achive its full efficiency and for modern performance-based seismic design methods to be fully enabled. The goal of this research is to generate the knowledge needed to increase the seismic safety of buildings that use lightweight CFS for the primary beams and columns, and enable engineers to account for complete building performance in predicting the response of these buildings to earthquakes.
This award is an outcome of the National Science Foundation (NSF) 09-524 program solicitation "George E. Brown, Jr. Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES) Research (NEESR)" competition and includes Johns Hopkins University (JHU) (lead institution) and Bucknell University (subaward). This project will utilize the NEES equipment site at the University at Buffalo (UB), State University of New York. Link to the NSF announcement. The research is also being performed in collaboration with the American Iron and Steel Institute and additional sponsors.

If you want people to hear your events message, it helps to have a headlining act named Lissen.
The local R&B group will perform at Sundays Benefit Concert for Sickle Cell, held at Columbus State Universitys main campus. The event is open to all ages and proceeds go to the Lower Chattahoochee Region Association of Sickle Cell.
Its designed to bring awareness to the disease of sickle cell and provide a platform for the foundation to help others in need.
Expect an appearance by radio personality Juicy of the nationally syndicated Rickey Smiley Morning Show, a performance by the Kendrick High School All-Star Choir and much more.
There will also be giveaways from local businesses like Bens Chophouse, Buckhead Bar & Grill and Cover Me Gorgeous boutique.
Unfamiliar with sickle cell disease (SCD)?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates SCD affects 90,000 to 100,000 people in the United States, mainly blacks or African-Americans.
The CDC adds, The disease occurs among about 1 of every 500 black or African-American births and among about 1 out of every 36,000 Hispanic-American births.
The CDC defines sickle cell disease as a group of inherited red blood cell disorders. Since the condition is inherited, you cant catch SCD by being around someone who has it.
To date, the only cure for SCD is a bone marrow or stem cell transplant, the CDC notes.
