"You would say the word suicide and they would act like it's something contagious," said Amanda Chaput, who lost her brother to suicide.
These women call themselves a family born from tragedy. Each lost a loved one to suicide.
"Gage was 21-years-old," said Mary Butler, who lost her stepson. "The year before he died he had been up here visiting us... We thought he was doing well."
After Gage killed himself, his stepmom discovered there weren't many resources in the Northeast Kingdom to help her deal with his death. Searching for an outlet, Butler channeled her grief into action, organizing Newport's first awareness walk through the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. More than 254 registered walkers showed up.
"We felt like we had a lot of people who were in this club that no one wants to belong to," Butler said.
The walk is how she met the Chaputs and Barretts. Together these three families formed an informal support group, sharing their stories in an effort to heal.
"To be honest, without these people I don't think there would be any healing," Amanda Chaput said.
"It's hard work to keep your head above water," Betty Barrett said.
Barrett's son, Michael, took his life nine years ago. He was 34.
"I was angry at God for a long time because he didn't give me enough time with my son," Barrett said.
"I wish I could do more." said Chris Barrett, Michael's stepfather.
Betty turned suicidal herself and her husband, Chris, didn't know how to help.
"There was a battle in my head going on because I didn't understand and I was trying. I'd fight to understand, fight to be supportive," he said.
The Barretts are not alone. Vermont's suicide rate surpasses the national average by about 36 percent. Since 2001, more than 1,000 Vermonters have taken their own lives. One in five Vermont middle and high school kids say they've contemplated suicide. Now, these survivors-turned-advocates are sticking together to strip the stigma from suicide.
"Mental illness or depression is not different than a physical illness. Even though the world often says there's a stigma, there's nothing to be embarrassed about," Butler said.
The Vermont Department of Mental Health is also addressing the issue, calling suicide one of the state's most pressing public health concerns.
"It's the second leading cause of youths' deaths. That's really startling when you think of it," said Charlie Biss of the Vermont Department of Mental Health.
The state partnered with a Brattleboro group called the Center for Health and Learning. Through a federal grant they developed the UMatter campaign, an interactive suicide prevention platform geared toward suicidal youth and those trying to help. The state says outreach tools like these combined with the advocacy work of survivors will make a difference.
"That is what's going to change our state view and the public awareness of suicide. That's what's going to help," Biss said.
For these Newport parents, focusing on Saturday's "Out of the Darkness Walk" helps them cope.
"With Michael's anniversary being September 30, usually in August I start subconsciously thinking about it," Betty Barrett said. "So, I was down last year. This year I'm highly pumped. I am just so excited about the walk."
"Everybody has a good sense of humor and it helps keep things light and if somebody's down, people are getting hugs," Chris Barrett said.
Loved ones taking small steps, hoping to make major strides toward suicide prevention.
Newport's second annual "Out of the Darkness Walk" is Sept. 7 at 10:30 a.m. starting at Gardner Park. The group hopes to raise $10,000 for suicide prevention.

Detroit has visited San Francisco 10 times since 1981 and they have lost 10 times.
In those 10 games, the UNDER bet has been a winner for totals bettors nine times (one game was a push).
Follow @sbnation | Like SB Nation on Facebook | Subscribe to SB Nation YouTube
So in a potential NFC playoff preview, the 49ers host the Lions Sunday night San Francisco is a 7-point home favorite in Vegas. The total of 46 at some shops and 47 at others is also attracting plenty of wagering action.
The San Francisco 49ers couldn't have asked for a much more impressive debut to the 2012 season as they went into Lambeau Field and came out with a 30-22 win over the Green Bay Packers as a 6-point underdog.
Now they return home, where they have dominated ATS (10-1-1 past 12 home games). And flying in the face of that perfect head-to-head UNDER trend is the Lions angle on the road (OVER is 10-1-1 past 12 Detroit road games).
Alex Smith (20/26, two touchdowns, zero interceptions) and Frank Gore (16 carries for 112 yards and a touchdown) were both sharp on offense, and the defense held one of the league's best offenses to just 324 total yards.
The Detroit Lions also picked up a win in their season opener, but it wasn't in nearly as impressive of a fashion. Going up against the lowly Rams as an 8-point favorite at home, Detroit needed a touchdown with just 10 seconds left in the game to eke out a 27-23 victory.
Matthew Stafford threw three interceptions, but still ended the day with 355 passing yards; 111 of them going to Calvin Johnson.
Both of these teams look a lot different now than they did in past years, but you can't ignore the trend when these two teams hit the field, which is that the 49ers dominate. San Francisco is a perfect 8-0 SU and 5-1-2 ATS in its last eight games against Detroit, including last year's heated battle in which the 49ers won 25-19 in Detroit as a 5-point road underdog.
San Francisco absolutely looks like the real deal, but this spread might be a bit of an overreaction to Week One. Detroit also figures to be a major playoff contender, and this game has the makings of a very physical and gritty one on both sides of the ball.
The 49ers likely get the job done at home, but Detroit should be able to keep the game within a touchdown.
PICK: Detroit +7

Collapsing Database Displays
Before I try to explain what I'm trying to do, let me show you an example -
The page displays a list of taxons (in this case, phyla) in a parent-child relationship, with the parent being animals (Animalia). If you click on a tiny box with a + sign, it displays that particular phyla's children. If you choose Chordata, it displays a list of children that include class Mammalia (mammals), and so on.
Anyway, I'd like to do something similar on my website, which focuses on animals and plants. I already have PHP/MySQL queries that display each taxon's children. I'd just like to know how to make them display with the little boxes that expand and collapse the children, menu or whatever they're called.

You'd normally do effects like that with JavaScript—such as with an accordion script: http://jqueryui.com/accordion/. However, that's not really the script you want in this case.
I've moved this to the JavaScript forum, where someone will know of a script that does exactly what you want.

Terry Zavala says fatigue is a near-constant for a busy high school student and it affects her in different ways throughout her day.
"In the morning it gets a little bit hard because you are still in a groggy state," the Santa Rosa High School junior said of her 8 a.m. class start. "But I think I'm more tired at the end of the day."
That fatigue can be debilitating for high school students, says Education Secretary Arne Duncan, who this week renewed his push for a later start to the high school day.
"Common sense to improve student achievement that too few have implemented: let teens sleep more, start school later," Duncan wrote on Twitter Aug. 20.
Duncan followed that call this week by citing in interviews studies that say teens' brains demand more sleep to operate optimally and that a later school start for high schoolers would help students perform.
For generations, the high school day has typically started at about 8 a.m. Some high schools even offer a "zero period," an even earlier start to allow students to take an extra class during their day.
Pushing the start time from a typical 8 a.m. bell to 9 a.m. or even 10 a.m. could have what Maria Carrillo High School Principal Rand Van Dyke called a "cascading effect" on the rest of the students' day — and that or their families.
Sports schedules and other extra-curricular activities would push into the hours of darkness and students would not get home until well into the evening, some principals said.
"I think if we didn't start when we start, that kids would be getting home at such a late time they would never see their family," said Cloverdale High School Principal Theresa Burke.
Geyserville's Katherine Hadden agreed.
"It would be such a long evening for them," said Hadden, who is principal of both Geyserville High School and middle school — two schools that sometimes share athletic facilities and must coordinate practice times.

|Think I look happy enough even after running all over the hills of Somerville MA? I still have that $12 Casio watch for runs. Thankfully, the Oakley sunglasses met their demise at the hands of an ex-girlfriend.
24 February 2011
A Look Back...
I ran for the first time in April 2002. Here's one of my first races, the Powderhouse Pub 4 Miler. Check out the crowd of folks for a Sunday morning race. Love Boston.
Back then 6 miles was a long run for me. I'd race 2-3 5ks-10ks each weekend. Running has been one of the most positive impacts on my life and I'm thankful I found it.

PLATTSBURGH — Nova Bus has won a contract to build 300 buses for the Chicago Transit Authority, with an option for 150 more.
The authority has agreed to purchase 300 buses for not more than $148 million, to be manufactured at the Nova Bus plant in the Town of Plattsburgh. Nova Bus is expected to deliver a prototype to the CTA in December and begin full production in February 2014.
Biz News Ink
Nova Bus President Jean-Pierre Baracat announced the contract Tuesday morning.
"We look forward to helping CTA modernize their fleet to provide a reliable and world-class service," he said in a press release. "We thank them for their renewed trust in our company and vehicles."
Chicago Transit Authority President Forrest Claypool said continued investment and upkeep of the bus fleet there is critical in keeping the City of Chicago moving.
"These new buses will replace existing buses nearing the end of their useful life and will ensure the CTA continues to provide safe and reliable service through a modernized fleet," he said in the statement.
The new LFS Smart buses will be 40 feet long and have 37 seats. They will feature collection equipment for the Chicago Transit Authority's new Ventra fare system, which is scheduled to start this summer.
The buses will also have LED lighting, multiple security cameras and improved fuel efficiency. They will meet current EPA emissions standards and exceed all Americans With Disabilities Act requirements, the press release said.
The vehicles will also be equipped with the Nova eCooling system, which eliminates engine overheating. The system uses minimal energy and reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse-gas emissions.
The reinforced shells are designed to provide increased protection to passengers and drivers. Test results show the Nova LFS surpasses transportation-industry crash-worthiness standards, the release said.

Cyber Bytes is S.H Smith & Company's Cyber, Security & Privacy blog – written by the experts you trust.
I have been in the IT field for almost 30 years. During that time the IT landscape (or Data Processing as it was called in the old days), has changed dramatically. When I started we had a centralized computing model where all the data was secured in a windowless cinderblock data center and the data was accessed through dumb terminals at your desk with no external connectivity. The advantage of the old model was its security. The data center was a near impregnable fortress where the front doors were protected with security cameras, security guards, and you needed a magnetic badge to get in the front door. The disadvantage was the lack of flexibility. If you couldn't get to your desk, you couldn't work.
With today's distributed computing model data can be stored in a secured location in your office, on a remote device, or accessed through a cloud application hosted by any one of a hundred different vendors. Data can be accessed through a PC, laptop, smart phone, or tablet. You can be at your desk, in your car, or on a beach in the Caribbean. The advantage of the new model is its flexibility. The ability to work where and when you want has increased our productivity. The disadvantage of the new model is the security risks inherent in this new environment. The portability of our devices means that they are easily lost or stolen. In order to provide remote access to the data, doors have to be opened up into our environment. With those open doors, there are increased security risks.
In my current role as IT Manager I have been tasked with securing our environment. During this process we have spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours battling against increasingly clever criminals intent upon stealing our data, or negatively impacting our ability to conduct business. In addition to the external threats, there are people internal to the organization that make shockingly bad decisions when it comes to protecting company data that has been entrusted to them. They may be responding to blatantly fraudulent e-mails promising untold millions if they just click on the link, or they may leave their portable device in bar, hotel room, or on the conveyor belt at the airport.
Balancing security with usability is a constant struggle. There must be procedures in place to deal with such eventualities, but the procedures can't be so strict as to affect the flexibility that comes with having such a device in the first place. Even the strictest security policy can be defeated and dealing with lost or stolen data will be an expensive and embarrassing process. That's why a cyber-security policy is absolutely essential in today's work environment. Do your best to protect your company's information from loss, and do your best to protect them when the loss inevitably occurs.
Hi, I'm Jeanine Loomis. I, like most Insurance Professionals, didn't plan on growing up to become an Insurance Broker but fell into this career. But when I did enter this field, I discovered the true Insurance Geek that was hiding inside of me. When I explain to my people that I read and compare insurance policies for a living and truly enjoy my job I get a confused look and a quick change in conversation in fear that I might try to sell them a life insurance policy (because, let's face it, most people have no idea what Management Liability Insurance is when you tell them about it).
I have been working on D&O and Professional Liability related products since 2000. In 2005 our company realized that, due to ever changing nature of the Cyber products in the market place, we needed to dedicate our time and energy to sink our teeth into this product and the exposures that businesses face. I, with a few of my co-workers, volunteered to dive into the Cyber/Privacy space to become well versed in the coverage and help our agents & their insureds navigate through the various exposures and policy wording that is out there.
S.H. Smith & Company encourages us to stay engaged in the marketplace, help our agents navigate policies that they may not have as much time to dig into and be a resource for specialty product lines. This blog is our newest venture to help our agents do just that.
For those of you that do not know me, my name is Betty Shepherd. I am proud to be a member of the professional liability insurance community for the past 20 years. When I first started my career, our files were all in paper format, we sent faxes rather than emails and telephone calls were the primary way in which we communicated with our business partners. Fast forward to the wonderful world of the internet where we can communicate instantly (for better or worse), we have access to unlimited data and we can send information at the touch of a button.
Yes, the internet has transformed the way in which we conduct business (not to mention transforming the world!) This transformation has created new risks as well. Data that a company collects, processes or transmits can be breached. It can be sent to the wrong party accidentally, it can be intercepted by a malicious person or it can be destroyed by a virus. If that data contains any private information (personally identifiable information, protected health information or confidential corporate information) the company will face financial consequences. Cyber risk insurance is protection against those financial consequences.
I have been focused on this "new" insurance product for the past 10 years in varying roles (although early forms of cyber insurance date back to the late 1990's). There are many cyber/privacy products in the insurance marketplace (I have developed two of them). There are many seminars, webinars and articles regarding cyber risk (some of which yours truly has hosted and authored). Exposures surrounding cyber risk insurance are constantly evolving as legislation and theories of liability do and those are the reasons we created this blog.
With this blog, we are committed to keeping informed about the ever changing world of cyber risk insurance and passing that information on to you. We hope you enjoy it!

Women's Golf Heads to the River City for JMU Invite
FORT MYERS, Fla. – The FGCU women's golf team will return to the course on Friday, as they head to Jacksonville, Fla. for the 2011 James Madison/Eagle Landing Invitational at Eagle Landing Country Club. The three-day, three-round event will begin Friday, March 11 and conclude Sunday, March 13.
JMU has hosted its tournament at Eagle Landing Golf Club in Jacksonville since 2009, all three years of the tournament's existence. The course is an open links style Clyde Johnston design that weaves through the Florida landscape, as well as, the Oakleaf Plantation community.
The 18-team field taking the course with the Blue and Green will include host James Madison, Campbell, Central Arkansas, Chattanooga, East Carolina, Elon, Georgetown, Illinois, Illinois State, Jacksonville, Kennesaw State, Longwood, Maryland, Miami, North Carolina Greensboro, defending champ USF and Stetson.
The Eagles traveling to the three-day event will include seniors Lina Elmsater (Stockholm, Sweden/Pfeiffer University) and Katerina Toomalatai (Palm Coast, Fla./Flagler Palm Coast HS), junior Fabienne Haremza (Wildermen, South Africa/Glenwood House/Lamar University), sophomore Briana Carlson (Inverness, Fla./Citrus H.S.) and freshman Megan Van Etten (Trinity, Fla./J.W. Mitchell HS).
Following the resignation of first-year coach Meghan Spero for a position with PGA Magazine, FGCU men's head golf coach Brent Jensen will travel as the interim coach until a candidate is selected for the head coaching vacancy.
18 holes will be played each day, with tee times ranging from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. each morning. Teams will be ranked by score following each day's play and standings will dictate the next morning's tee times.
Live in-progress scoring of the tournament can be found at www.GolfStat.com. A link to the live scoring can be found by going to the FGCU women's golf schedule and clicking on the day's event or by going to www.GolfStat.com and searching for the JMU Invite.
In their spring-opening competition at the rain-shortened 36-hole 2011 JU Classic, FGCU wrapped up play in fourth place in the seven-team field at the Hidden Hills Country Club. Carlson paced the Eagles with a second place finish on the 40-individual leaderboard, en route to her first Atlantic Sun Conference Golfer of the Week Award.
Results and recaps from each round will be available at www.FGCUAthletics.com following each day.

== Update May 2008 ==
Still standing and pretty much in the same condition - still recommended. After a recent trip to Buffalo and the obligatory consumption of several servings of wings there, I have to give this place a bump foodwise on the strength of their wings. They know how to cook 'em, they're properly meaty, not excessively greasy, and they understand that hot means hot. Wonderfully painful to eat, but tasty, not just some insane person locked in the kitchen with a Tobasco bottle in each hand. Those of you who enjoy that sort of thing know what I mean. They do a good job with the other versions, too. So after my trip to the Home of the Buffalo Wing, I have a much deeper appreciation of my local joint. Keep it up, make me scream.
== Original review ==
Boasts twenty taps plus a selection of the usual macro stuff. Nothing really exotic - all the taps are products you can find at the local LCBO and Beer Store - but that still leaves you with a far better selection than your run of the mill place. A definite lean towards beer of British origins, includes Strongbow cider. Some Ontario micros including Creemore and Steam Whistle on tap. Only wish they'd get up the nerve to put on a guest tap to bring in some brews from elsewhere in the province.
A comfy enough space, big screens to watch the game, friendly servers, decent crowd.
Best deal - Fowl Mondays and Wingy Wednesdays for half-priced wings. Thirty wings and a pint of fresh Steam Whistle for twenty bucks. Not bad at all. Good wings, too. Tasty, meaty, properly prepared.
Worth a visit if you're in town.

If you subscribe to the view that a Pub is its people (those who frequent it and those who run it) as opposed to in the kitsch on the walls, then this is a place you'll want to be.
From the exterior, it appears as little more than a hole-in-the-wall establishment, but once you step into the place, it offers a whole lot more.
You're greeted by a beautiful 20+ foot bar and exposed brick walls; a genuine Canadian pub by any stretch. Seat yourself if there's anywhere to sit (which depending on the night, there might not be) or pull up at the bar and wait for a table to open. I say this because you're going to be here for a while.
The thing that stands out about McThirsty's is its food. I understand how irresponsible it would be to make a "best ___" claim, especially with how worked up people can get, but please believe me when I say that, on balance, they have the best chicken wings I have ever had.
These wings are flavourful like I have never encountered before (and I have had way more than my fair share of chicken wings to substantiate that claim). They don't offer weird flavour combinations (no chocolate sauce here), but they do offer a decent assortment and most importantly, they get each flavour right. You have the standard Mild through Suicide, but they also do other staples like Honey Garlic and Cajun Spice. They are also incredibly meaty given their average-ish size and are tender like you wouldn't believe.
On Fowl Mondays and Wingy Wednesdys, the wings are half-price. This isn't anything special in its own right, but when combined with the overall superiority of these wings versus the typical establishment and the fact that 30 wings costs $18 normally, you are getting a deal.
When I lived in Peterborough, a group of us would typically go on one of these nights and order 120 wings. But where else could you get 120 wings for less than $40? It often worked out to less than $5 (drinks not included, although they were always reasonably priced too) a person for multiple pounds of wings.
They also have 20 taps and a decent bottle selection, so you'll have plenty of options when looking for something to put out the fire in your mouth from their genuine suicide wings (they are the hottest wings I've ever had and I suspect they use Scotch Bonnet peppers as their base).
I could go on forever, but suffice it to say: if you find yourself in Peterborough, don't miss the opportunity to try this place out.

Discovering a Paper Son
For actor Byron Yee, family history provides the inspiration for his one-man show. "My name is Byron Yee. I am the second son of Bing Quail Yee. I am the son of a paper son.
"My father was an immigrant. He came to America to escape the Japanese invasion of China in 1938. He was 15 years old and he didn't know a word of English. He didn't have a penny in his pocket and he was living in a crowded apartment in New York City with relatives he had never met. I know nothing about my father's history, about his past."
With little to go on, Byron set out to decipher his father's story. He started at Angel Island, located in the middle of San Francisco Bay. "Angel Island has been called the Ellis Island of the West and for the most part, all the Chinese who came to the United States came through here, from a period of 1910 to 1940. But the rules were a little bit different. European settlers, Russian settlers were processed within an hour. The Japanese were kept for one day. But the Chinese were detained anywhere from three weeks to two years for their interrogations. So this was not so much the Ellis Island of the West for the Chinese; it was more like Alcatraz."
In 1882, Congress passed a law prohibiting Chinese laborers from immigrating to the United States. The Chinese Exclusion Act was the only immigration law ever based on race alone. But people found ways around the act: US law states that children of American citizens are automatically granted citizenship themselves, no matter where they were born. Taking advantage of that opening, some immigrants claimed to be legitimate offspring of US citizens when in fact they were not. These individuals, mostly male, were called paper sons.
Byron's next step was to find his father's immigration file. The National Archives regional office in San Bruno, California contains thousands of files related to Angel Island. While Byron did not find his father's records there, he did find those of his grandfather, Yee Wee Thing. In one of the documents in his grandfather's file, Byron found a cross reference to his father, Yee Bing Quai. To avoid the scrutiny of Angel Island, Byron's father had sailed through Boston. Byron found his file at the National Archives in Massachusetts.
"My father at 15. He is asked 197 questions: 'When did your alleged father first come to the United States?' 'Have you ever seen a photograph of your alleged father?' 'How many trips to China has your alleged father made since first coming to the United States?'" The lengthy interrogation made Byron suspect that his father was in fact a paper son. Maybe this was why he never knew his father's story.
Though Byron's mother knew very little about her husband's past, she did have an old photo, which she sent to Bryon - a portrait of his father's family back in China. Byron learned that the baby on the left was his father. The boy in the middle was Yee Wee Thing, not Byron's grandfather at all, but his uncle.
"It kind of floored me because all of a sudden it made a lot of sense - why he was the way he was, why he never really talked about his past, why he was very secretive. It explained a lot about him and about his history.
"You see my story is no different from anyone else's� In all of our collective past, we've all had that one ancestor that had the strength to break from what was familiar to venture into the unknown. I can never thank my father and uncle enough for what they had to do so that I could be here today. One wrong answer between them and I would not be here."
Most Chinese immigrants came through Angel Island in San Francisco Bay.

American Council on Exercise4851 Paramount DriveSan Diego, California 92123
Posted: Thursday, February 24, 2000 in ACE Press Releases
SAN DIEGO - The American Council on Exercise (ACE) announced today the successful evaluation of its certification exams by the American Council on Education's College Credit Recommendation Service. ACE is now the first and only fitness certifying organization to obtain college credit recommendations for its exams.
Approximately 1100 colleges and universities nationwide recognize the American Council on Education's college credit recommendations. Students who successfully pass an ACE-certification exam may be able to earn credits toward graduation.
"ACE has set the standard of excellence for fitness professionals for more than 15 years," says ACE's Certification Director, Tony Ordas. "And the council's College Credit Recommendations are a validation of that standard."
The College Credit Recommendation Service's team of content experts recently reviewed ACE's certification exams, including Group Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer, Lifestyle & Weight Management Consultant, and Clinical Exercise Specialist certifications.
To determine if your college or university recognizes the college credit recommendations, visit the American Council on Education's Web site at www.acenet.edu/calec/corporate/partic-univ-U.html. Be sure to contact the appropriate school official since each educational institution makes the final decision in awarding credit.
The American Council on Exercise (ACE) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the benefits of physical activity and protecting consumers against unsafe and ineffective fitness products and instruction. As the nation's "workout watchdog," ACE conducts university-based research and testing that targets fitness products and trends. ACE sets standards for fitness professionals and is the world's largest nonprofit fitness certifying organization. For more information on ACE and its programs, call (800) 825-3636 or log onto the ACE Web site at www.acefitness.org.
The American Council on Education's College Credit Recommendation Service (formerly ACE/PONSI) was created to evaluate learning in business and industry settings. With mounting concern about America's "productive edge," organizations in business and industry, as well as local and federal government, are having their in-house training evaluated for possible college credit recommendations.

As George W. Bush sets new campaign fundraising records, reflecting dedicated service to the wealthy few, the threat of being removed from office ought to be the least of his worries. Title 18, part 1, chapter 47, and section 1001 of the United States federal statutory code (US Code Collection, http://www4.law.cornell. edu/uscode/ 18/1001.html) mandates fines and imprisonment up to five yearsfor a federal office-holder who "knowingly and willfully – falsifies, conceals, or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact; makes any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation; or makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry."
Practicing damage control in the wake of the dominant media's curiously belated and partial recognition that Operation Iraqi Freedom was based on spectacular high-state dishonesty, the Bush War Party rushed to limit the public dissection of its shamelessly mendacious war propaganda to its claim that Iraq had tried to purchase uranium for a nuclear bomb from Africa. But this hopelessly discredited allegation was just one of many "materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements and representations" made by Bush and his "posse" (as he like to call his collection of arch-imperialist, corporate-plutocratic advisors) to sell their falsely labeled "preemptive" attack on Iraq as the only to way to ensure that "the people of the United States and our friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an outlaw regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder" (Presidential radio address, March 22, 2003, available online at http://whitehouse.gov/ news/ releases/2003/03/ print/20030322/html).
Among the other unproven and discredited allegations related to the fictitiously labeled "Operation Iraqi Freedom":
*Iraq possessed 30,000 liters of anthrax and other lethal biological agents.
*Iraq attempted to buy aluminum tubes to be used to construct nuclear weapons.
*Iraq had "in fact reconstituted nuclear weapons" (Cheney)
*Iraq possessed a "growing fleet of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles" that could be used to dispense chemical weapons against US targets within and beyond US soil.
*Saddam possessed 30,000 munitions capable of delivering chemical agents and inspectors had recently turned up 16 of them (Powell, to United Nations).
*Saddam was building ballistic missiles that could fly 620 miles, nearly seven times the range permitted by the United Nations (Powell).
*Saddam's regime possessed several mobile biological weapons labs.
*Saddam removed United Nations weapons inspectors from Iraq during the late 1990s without any provocation, seeking to hide a resurgent program of WMD reconstruction.
*During the recent crisis leading to US invasion, "we gave [Saddam] a chance to allow the inspectors in, and he wouldn't let them in….so we decided to remove him from power."
*Iraq had strong and longstanding ties to al Qaeda and was linked to 9/11 and a serious threat to hand off weapons to mass destruction to Islamic militant terrorists like bin-Laden.
*Saddam's past horrific (and US funded and approved) use of chemical weapons against Iraqi Kurds and Iranian soldiers and his invasion of Kuwait (with perceived US approval) proved his reckless (in fact suicidal) willingness to use WMDs against the US and/or other states.
*The Bush administration wished to avoid military action against Iraq, seeing the use of military force against that nation as "a last resort" and only "reluctantly" engaging in war.
*The US invaded Iraq out of respect for international law, the United Nations, and international democracy and in opposition to the use of violence in international affairs.
*Invading US troops would certainly be welcomed as grateful, joyous Iraqi masses, celebrating the freedom granted them by George W. Bush and his "liberating" armies.
Even as he and his subordinates made such strikingly misleading claims in preparing and conducting an illegal invasion of a sovereign state – an action opposed by the preponderant majority of the human species, which sees the US as the leading threat to world peace – Bush had the audacity to include the following quotation from John F. Kennedy in the text of a pivotal war speech given in October 2002: "Neither the United States of America nor the world community of nations can tolerate deliberate deception and offensive threats on the part of any nation, large or small."
The above deceptions are a small fraction of the total number of materially false, fictitious, and fraudulent statements made by Bush and his administration. A recent example from a list that is frankly exhausting to track (monitoring current White House misinformation is a full-time job) is Bush's claim theUS government "has a deficit because we have been through a war." As the Congressional Budget Office has shown, Bush's harshly regressive tax cuts for the affluent have "cost," writes Newsweekcolumnist Jonathan Alter, "the [United States] Treasury nearly three times as much as the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, reconstruction after 9/11, and homeland security measures combined" ("Let them Eat Cake Economics," Newsweek, June 28, 2003)
Also literally false was Bush's claim in January 2003 that his latest tax cut would provide "tax relief for everyone who pays federal taxes." TheTax Policy Center, a sophisticated research arm of the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, quickly discovered that 8.1 million federal taxpayers, predominantly low-income, received no such relief from the proposal.
The deeper deception, however, lay in Bush's repeated insistence that his plan was designed to help ordinary, hard-working Americans with modest incomes – a claim buttressed by his technically accurate assertion that the federal tax bill of an average (mean) American family would fall by $1,600. In a report that has gone curiously unchallenged, Citizens for Tax Justice found that half of all taxpayers would receive less than $100 of relief this year. It also learned that two-thirds of the federal tax savings go to the wealthiest 10 percent of taxpayers and that the richest 1 percent received an average cut of nearly $100,000 a year under Bush's plan. Also missing from Bush's statements: the cost of increased local and state taxes, levied to make up for federal dollars squandered by Bush's determination to reward his well-heeled comrades in the unmentionable domestic class war – the top down version.
As for concealment of key material facts, we have, among many examples, the White House's literally sickening decision to strike out important sections on the possible human effects of global warming from a major report issued by the Environmental Protection Agency last June. The White House also deleted reference to a study demonstrating dramatic increases in world temperatures over the last ten years. It added a reference to a study questioning those findings by the corporate-funded American Petroleum Institute (Dante Chinni, "Bush Credibility Gap – a Slow, Quiet Rumble," The Christian Science Monitor,June 24, 2003).
Bush's defenders will argue that the president's false statements are not technically illegal he did not "knowingly and willfully" make his false claims. The president of theUnited States, we are informed by the White House, cannot be expected to be a "fact-checker." He relies on the information his "experts" dig up and some of that data is inevitably and unfortunately bad. At the same time, some of his supporters admit, the president himself is, well, not the sharpest person to ever hold the nation's highest office. He is especially prone to "regular guy" confusion when it comes to handling the countless facts that cross his desk. This is part of his appeal and popularity.
But do we really want a man of such apparent limitations at the head of the most powerful assemblage of military force in history? And why, moreover, do the president's supposed "mistakes," "exaggerations," and "overstatements" always serve empire abroad and inequality at home? And how bad is the intelligence these days? Why, for example, did the White House never seem to "err" in the direction of the considerable number of respectable intelligence experts who – taking seriously their professional responsibility to discover and report on what's actually going on in the world, without primary consideration to political concerns – questioned the claims made by the War Hawks like Rumsfeld, Perle, and Wolfowitz, for whom facts are little more than Orwellian playthings.
As Noam Chomsky noted more than thirty years ago in a book that dissected the delusional mindset of the people who brought us the Vietnam War, "mere ignorance or foolishness" on the part of US policymakers "would lead to random error, not to a regular and systematic distortion" that always favors military action. Now, as during the Vietnam era, reports illustrating the truth beneath official deceptions go essentially unchallenged by the White House because the government "does not really hope to convince anyone by its arguments, but only to sow confusion, relying on the natural tendency to trust authority and avoid complicated and disturbing issues. The confused citizen turns to other pursuits, and gradually, as government lies are reiterated day after day, year after year, falsehood becomes truth." The citizen is "whipped into line by fear that we will be overwhelmed by an external enemy if we let down our guard." (Chomsky, For Reasons of State, New York, NY: Pantheon, 2002 [originally published in 1971]).
That analysis from the Cold War period provides a pretty good description of Bush administration political hopes and strategies for 2004 and beyond. Those hopes are framed by an Orwellian mindset that merges darkly with a number of toxic homeland tendencies – e.g. corporate/big money domination of the candidate-selection and policy-formation processes, the corporate stranglehold on dominant media, chronic overwork, to mention just a few – to raise disturbing questions about the degree to which democracy survives within the world's most powerful and dangerous state.

This store hasn't been reviewed for over a year, so it might be time for an update.
The Wine Gallery @ Kenmore is very easy to get to if using the T or a bus. Its a very small place that gives at least 70% of the space to wine and liquor. The staff is pleasant and helpful if asked. There is an 8 foot section of cooler for beer & about a 4 foot section of room temp bombers and such. It takes about 5 min to check out the selections.
The prices are quite fair. The selection is pretty varied for the space allotted for brews. A good selection of UK and european offerings. Most the cooler space is for 6 or 4 pks. The usual brands: Stone, SN, Lagunitas, Long Trail, Smuttynose, bear republic, sam adams, etc.
Worth a stop if in the area or need a quick sixer. Might find something special or rare.

This is my go-to store for any time I want to go out and buy some craft beer. Though it's called the Wine Gallery, they have a large selection of beers from right here in Massachusetts and from around the world. The staff here is knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. As someone who has been introduced to the craft beer scene in New England relatively recently, this store has helped me to expand my tastes and learn about the many wonderful micro-breweries that make this state so great.
One of my favorite things about the Wine Gallery is the beer tastings that they have every Thursday. The reps that show up for different breweries really know their stuff and will not only let you try all of the beers in their selection, but they'll tell you about each one while you're tasting it. It's this kind of event that keeps me coming back to the Wine Gallery each week.
If you're in the area and you're looking to buy any sort of alcohol, I'd suggest you stop in here. It's got a light, welcoming atmosphere and you will most likely find something you like. If not, the staff will help you to discover something that you do. Three cheers for the Wine Gallery!

Mainly a wine store as the name suggests but they have a decent selection of beer. With a fridge dedicated to 6 packs and two whole shelves full of 750ml, bombers, and 12oz singles.
Quality of the beer here is very good. More mainstream micros like Sam Adams and Macros are kept in the fridge along with a decent selection of 4 packs from Founders, Flying Dog, etc. There are also 2 shelves with all the usual Belgian suspects along with Lost Abbey, Brooklyn Brewery, etc. All bottles were kept at a good temperature and seemed up to date.
There was no real service here. Again, this is a wine place and presents itself as such. If you need help getting something, they can usually provide and they'll even offer to order you something if they don't currently stock it. However, if they're beer guy isn't there, it becomes harder to get a beer suggestion or the like.
Selection here, as said before is rather good. At least comparing to Bauer. They have more in general and seem to dedicated a larger proportion of their space to beer.
Prices here are a bit high but not excessively so. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

I was thrilled to find this place next to our hotel. After getting off the Kenmore stop on the T it was there Chimay sign that I noticed. Otherwise this place can be easily missed being it is in the basement.
The people working where very friendly and knowledgeable. The thing that got me was they had Southern Tier Mokah and Choklat. I live in upstate NY and have not been able to locate Choklat. The fact I drive 3 hours in the opposite direction and find it was funny to me. There selection of Belgium beers was pretty extensive as well. They even had some run of the mill stuff to accommodate the every day drinker.
All in all this made the evening in the hotel much more enjoyable. I am sure there are better places in Boston but when from out of town and staying by Fenway this is a Little gem

Great bomber selection from all corners of the globe. The beer geek will be happy in this store. All the unibroue, dogfish and rogue that you want are here.
The refrigerated six-pack selection is quite diverse, containing the usual local beers (harpoon, sam, wachusset) and imports (Red Stripe, Heineken) and then there is the rare west coast stuff as well (Green Flash, Lagunitas). The sixers are a bit pricey - no "deals" to be found at Wine Gallery. However, I am willing to pay a tiny bit of extra cash for a place that really knows their stuff and keeps up an interesting rotation of brew.
I've never bought wine here, but have bought hard alcohol. Prices for the hard booze are actually quite reasonable.
A great place to have in the neighborhood.

Stumbled into this place on our way back form the Belgian Beerfest on Saturday evening. The man and woman working behind the counter were extremely helpful.
The selection was decent. Nice assortment of Domestic, Micros, Belgian, and other fine Euro offerings. Delicous selection of Bombers.
They were quite familiar with BA's and the impending beer fest going on this past weekend.
Overall I was pleased with the selection available in this metro area. I'm happy that I was able to locate this gem on the way back to our hotel.
It is also relly close to Fenway which is a plus.Check this place out if you can, it's worth it.

Little cousion to the Brookline behemoth. Right off the Kenmore T. How convenient!
They have an eclectic mix for the small space there. Good place to find offerings such as Peche Mortel, People's Pint and stuff you may not see at the usual suspects. The space they do dedicate to craft beer is definitely well-used.
Service is friendly and actually pretty humorous - one of the guys wondered aloud when I took a bottle of Peche Mortel why it hadn't been picked up sooner. Maybe the location?
Prices reflect rental costs around there - it may be illusion but they seem a little more expensive than others. Still, it's a good stop when around Kenmore or the ballpahk. Solid store.

Grabbed a few bottles here while in town the other day, of the random few liquor stores I popped into throughout the week, this one had the best selection of crafts, especially specialty ones in bombers. Also had some nice Belgians and English, like all the different cask aged JW Lees. Not a huge selection, but it's not a huge store, and they seemed to be pretty knowledgeable in their selections. As was the guy behind the counter. They also do regular beer & wine tastings there, and apparently have some kind of system where you can sample any wine bottle they have in stock (but not beer). Priced seemed average compared to the other places I hit in town.

The Wine Gallery is down a half flight of stairs at 516 Commonweath. It's not far from "The Lower Depths" on one side (headed east towards Newbury), or "Eastern Standard" on the other. It's a small liquor store with a nice "wood" look to it. It has an average selection of imports and local 6-packs and a small amount of individual larger bottles; as well as a fairly decent selection of wine (note: that does not mean good, just OK, but it is a small store). I wasn't impressed by the selection (of either beer or wine), but it is nice that it's near at least one good stop (The Lower Depths). In a pinch it's certainly worth hitting.

this place doesn't look that big but their beer selection holds up pretty well, there's a lot of different things to choose from. good international selection as well as american craft, including the rarer releases. they have tastings every thursday night and additional beer tasting events often. it seems that a lot of times they will carry something and i will never see it again there, there is a lot being rotated in and out. this is a good thing but it can be disspointing at times too. staff is very knowledgable and helpful also. prices seem about average for the city.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Violent crime tops the agenda of Jefferson County's new chief prosecutor. Commonwealth's Attorney Tom Wine has created a new unit to target repeat, violent offenders to get them off the streets as quickly as possible.
Tom Wine is taking over as the county's chief prosecutor at a time when the murder rate is spiking. 2012 ended with 62 homicides, a 28% increase over 2011.
Wine has assigned four prosecutors to specifically target repeat, violent offenders.
"Get a conviction. Get them off the streets as long as possible. That's what the community's been crying out for. People are being held prisoner in their homes, and they need the relief," said Wine.
The idea gets a thumbs-up from Metro Police Chief Steve Conrad, who created the VIPER unit last year to combat violent crime.
"This will give us an opportunity to work with prosecutors who have a real focus on that area, and I think it will give us the opportunity to make sure that we are charging violent offenders appropriately and hopefully getting them off the streets for a long, long time," said Conrad.
Wine says the Commonwealth's Attorney's office has had similar units in the past that did have some success.
"But those were units that dried up because the funding dried up. But we're trying to make do with what we have to implement that program," he said.
Wine says he also wants to address the issue of human trafficking. There has been only one prosecution in Louisville so far. But because of Louisville's central location and ease of access, Wine expects the problem to get much worse.
"These young girls who get traded back and forth like a commodity, we want to address that. We want to be prepared. We want to get ahead of that. This is one of those things where we really need to be pro-active, and as soon as it pops up we need to jump on it."
Wine is also creating a special unit to deal with scams, particularly those targeted at senior citizens. All this, as he is forced to cut his personnel budget by 5%.

Harris; Mile Relay Log Provisional NCAA Marks
Jan. 17, 2004
Norman, Oklahoma - The TCU men's mile relay team and quartermiler Jerry Harris notched provisional NCAA marks as the indoor track & field season opened Saturday in Norman at the Oklahoma Indoor Classic. Both TCU squads placed third in the team scoring behind Baylor and Oklahoma and ahead of Texas A&M and SMU in the competition held at the renovated Mosier Indoor Facility on the University of Oklahoma campus.
"All in all it was a good meet for the first meet of the season," said TCU head coach Monte Stratton. "I thought the women had a great meet. It was best meet we've had from top to bottom on the women's side in the nine years I've been at TCU. On the men's side, some key people need to step up and perform for us to be where we want to be."
The TCU quartet of Dwayne Lynes-Bell, Che Chavez, Jackson Langat and Jerry Harris turned in an NCAA provisional time of 3:12.35 to win the mile relay. The NCAA provisional cut off is 3:13.20. Oklahoma was a distant second in the event, finishing more than seven seconds behind the Frogs. TCU's 4x4 indoor relay unit earned a silver medal at the NCAA Championships last March. Harris, who garnered a pair of All-America certificates in 2003 in his first year with the TCU program, ran an open quarter mile of 47.06 to take second place, well ahead of the provisional qualifying cut off mark of 47.65.
Jackson Langat turned in the only other gold medal performance for the TCU men. In addition to running a leg on the relay, the three-time All-American won the mile run in 4:12.24. The Frogs also had silver medal outings from freshman Chaime Breaux in the 60-meter dash and Aundre Edwards in the long jump.
On the women's side, TCU turned in five gold medal performances. Larissa Bakasa had a strong meet, winning the 400 meter dash and running the leadoff leg on TCU's winning mile relay squad. That quartet also included freshmen Marquita Davis and Deborah Jones, along with sophomore Donita Harmon. Other winning performances were turned in by Mary Kinyanjui in the 3000 meters, freshman MaKeatha Cooper in the 60 meter hurdles and freshman Zelma Wade in the shot put. Freshman Calandra Stewart was second in the mile run, while Kandra Lakey earned the silver medal in the shot put.
The Frogs have a short week of preparation before they are back in action on Friday at the Houston Indoor Classic.
