Thanks to BeerBeing for the birthday present. Cork looks good, that seems to be the key with these beers from George Gale. Pours with zero carbonation, the beer is somewhat murky and brown. Good aroma of wood, apple, and caramel malt.
Alcohol is apparent, as is the barrel aging. Nutty caramel malt blends smoothly with the apple and the wood. Mouthfeel is thin, but the finish lingers. Good drinkability.

I like this style, normally. This 6-year old possessed but a small bubble for a head. It looked like an old ale, chestnut and on the thick side. It smelled a bit boozy, apple cidery. The taste was old ale of splinter wood and years gone past.Found at Premiere Gourmet.At best a sipper, it improves with room temperature and leaves an aftertaste of apple cider.. and splinters.

I decided to try this beer this weekend. I picked up one of these a while back and am a fan of the regular prized old ale.
A - off brown with a reddish tinge at the edges. absolutely flat. Not even a stray bubble running up the glass. Not necessarly atypical of this brewery.
S - unbelievably good. Sat there and just savored the aroma for a while. Sweet malts, oak, apples and a vinous alcohol character that is just plain amazing.
T - sorry, fell apart. there's a harsh astringent character in the beer that I did not expect after tasting this one. It steps in and distracts and overwhelms the wonderful aromas.
M - medium bodied, flat. Definitely a warming effect from the alcohol.
D - Didn't finish it. I love the other style and enjoy it on special occasions. I wanted to like this one but just couldn't get past the astringent character.
It might turn out ok in 5 years but I can't give it a pass on this tasting for potential. Save it for years and take a chance if you like. I'm going to keep the other bottle and try it around year 8 to see if it got better. I'm not going to add to my cellar though.

9.3oz bottle received from oracle as part of the NoBS BIF. Thanks for the opportunity.
Poured into a heavy glass chalice, no head over the heavily murky reddish brown brew. No lace present. More or less as expected from a barrelled old ale. Aroma is sweet malts, with heavy yet rounded alcohol presence. Taste is hard to describe, the whole experience being somewhat unique since not many beers present toally still. Starts with a watery wort flavor, which quickly gives way to smoky alcohol, with the alcohol flavor getting more raw as the experience goes on. Mouthfeel was quite light for such a heavy and strong brew, and drinkability was hard for me, actually. Have to see what the other example I have (aged longer) does for me.

Corked 9oz. bottle had at the Brickskellar on 11/7/06
The brew pours a murky brown colour, no head to speak of ( no surprise here), maybe a bubble or two, nah just my imagination. The aroma is rather outstanding, plum and prune, toffeeish malt, and a whiff of apples and funk. A little sweet initially, then some serious barnyard funk comes through in the flavour, along with plummy fruits, grapes, apples, and a fairly dry finish. A very vinous beer, a little bit of an oily mouthfeel, and quite complex. Not perfect by any means but certainly worth checking out

A: No carbonation or head to speak of. Looks like a murky ice tea. Murky muddy water with a slight amber tinge to it. Alcohol legs for sure.
S: Smells more like a red wine than a beer. Some malt is presence, along with a bit of apple and alcohol is not hiding at all, very prominent.
T: A little bit of sweetness with dark fruits and apples, but that's about all I can pick up. Maybe some malt too? The alcohol just takes over since this has got to be way higher than 9% now since it's bottle conditioned. Hot finish in the way that it's like a strong mixed vodka drink.
M: Watery, yet really slick and oily. Its really odd since there is no carbonation to speak off.
O: Past it's prime for sure. Would like to have tried it when it was still drinkable. Pretty much undrinkable, but glad I got to try it. Obviously, they did not intend for it to taste like this, but figured I still review it since it's rare

Thanks to ClockworkOrange for opening this up. "Here Adam you like apple brandy barrel beers don't ya? Why yes Jason...yes I do!" poured from a small corked bottle into a snifter. The brew pours a hazed brown with a very fine thin tan film for a head that leaves spots of lace on the glass. When held to the light, some yellow is seen through the edges.
The smell includes vibrant apple character that is seemingly candied and sweet smelling. The apple character covers the whole spectrum from apple skin to core as flesh. There is caramel malt present that really drives home the thought of caramel candy apple smell. As it warms up, there is a mild spiced aspect as well as a fusel alcohol inclusion.
The taste is very warming with alcohol. It mixes with the apple brandy flavor and some mild spices reminiscent of cinnamon. The alcohol while quite bold is fitting for the style and has a light tangy element across the back.
This is a medium bodied brew with a light level of carbonation. Huge alcohol presence for being like 9 years in the bottle. I'm having a really hard time believing that this brew is only 9%. Thanks again Jason for sharing!

Bottle found in NY for five dollars plus tax.
A- GPOAMICC2003 has a cork that's a pain to get out. Upon pouring, this old ale has a murky dark brown color with zero head. Very dead looking.
S- Has a nice old ale smell with similarities to thomas hardy's and the like. Malt, dried dark fruit, alcohol and some wine like scents. The smell is this beers strong suit.
T- The taste really hurts this beer. I get all the above mentioned scents in taste plus some minimal Calvados from the cask and a lot of plums. They just don't meld well together leaving me looking for a chaser.
M- Zero carbonation and a thick syrupy feel. The alcohol is there but it does not burn. This one coats the tounge quickly leaving a sweet aftertaste. It is a 6 year old beer so perhaps any carb that was there initially faded over time.
D- Small sips are the way to go, if I took anymore I would probably throw up. This would be a good beer to dare somebody for money to drink at least 3 oz in a gulp, I sware it can not be done without upchucking.

Poured from bottle into a Dogfish Head snifter. Beer was a dark, rusty brown color. No head, no carbonation, no lacing.
Aroma was apples, toffee, oak, booze, raisins and white wine. Smells rich and complex.
Taste was caramel and wood. Light, spicy aftertaste. Not very appetizing.
At 7 years old, it's way past it's prime... Aroma is excellent, but the taste just isn't there anymore. Syrupy mouthfeel and low drinkability. A sipper, borderline drainpour.

Grabbed a few vintage brews to see what was what. I like Old Ales just fine...
Cork gave the old pop and looked in great condition - thought maybe a hint of carbonation would be present here on the pour, especially given all the sediment, but nope barely a bubble on the pour. This one smelled pretty darn good, very sweet and fruity without any overbearing alcohol yet with a bit of a vinous touch here and there.
Moving to the taste is where this goes very wrong - it feels a bit thin and of course flat - it just does not come together here. I get a bit of sweet and complex fruit and then it disappears and just gets weird - like nothing i have had before and do not want to. I had to sip this so slowly because it was just not appealing.
I have no idea if more time will help this beverage.

Two companies have submitted plans to a northern Indiana city for taking over a deteriorating 128-year-old downtown building.
Elkhart economic development director Barkley Garrett says the proposals for the Elkhart Armory building are being reviewed as officials consider whether to help save it or have it demolished.
Garrett tells The Elkhart Truth that the city's redevelopment commission could pick one of the preservation proposals and give the company more time to work on details.
The building has housed an auto dealership, skating rink and grocery store over the decades but has been vacant for more than two years. Officials are worried about the building's safety after the roof began to collapse over the winter from the weight of snow.
Demolition bids range from about $134,000 to $273,000.

Man charged for crashing into housesNovember 02,2013BENNINGTON A Pownal man, who police said crashed into two Union Street homes last month in Bennington, was released without bail after pleading innocent to three misdemeanor charges this week.
Marcien L. Roy, 18, of Pownal, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court on one count each of reckless endangerment, grossly negligent driving and driving under the influence of drugs.
In an affidavit, Officer Benjamin Lackey of the Bennington Police Department said the crash was reported around 1:15 a.m. on Oct. 8. When Lackey reached the area, he found that a 2004 GMC Yukon had crashed into the porch of one home and the side of a neighboring home.
Sgt. Camillo Grande, also of the Bennington Police Department, talked to Roy first, according to the affidavit. When he asked Roy to tell him what happened, Roy replied, So many drugs... alcohol... marijuana, the affidavit said.
While a blood-alcohol test showed no alcohol in Roys system, Roy told police he had taken hallucinogenic mushrooms before the crash. Roy also told police that after the mushrooms, he had smoked marijuana because he was freaking out, Lackey said.
Police believe Roy was driving on Union Street and came around a sharp curve without stopping at a stop sign or slowing down, which caused the crash.
People were home at both houses but no one was hurt. The crashes caused about $75,000 in damage in total to the two homes.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER With just days to go before the Democratic primaries, and a sitting governor and...

Speed of play is hardly a new problem on the PGA Tour (see: Ben Crane, circa 2005), and Kevin Na -- with his pokey pace at last week's Players Championship -- was not the first pro golfer to raise the ire of those whose blood boils ever faster with each pre-shot twitch and tic (see: Kevin Na -- well, any time since he joined the PGA Tour). Indeed, Luke Donald complained about his colleagues' comatose clip in the first event of 2012 -- and the once-and-future No. 1 wasn't even playing in the tournament.
Responding to Donald's claim on Twitter back in January that "Slow play is killing our sport," ESPN analyst Paul Azinger tweeted back that the issue came up "at most player meetings i've been to since my rookie year..1982."
Tuesday, with the season almost half over and the same old issue back in the spotlight, the defending champ of this week's Byron Nelson Championship added his voice to the choir. Keegan Bradley agreed with Tiger Woods' recent assessment that tour officials might have to add stiffer punishments for slow play. But the reigning PGA champ and Rookie of the Year, who has taken some heat for his methods on the course, also lauded Na for owning up to his faults.
"I think that Kevin handled it well," Bradley told reporters about Na's response to widespread criticisms about his jittery rituals and the ugly taunting he received from the TPC Sawgrass gallery because of them. "It seemed like he was struggling against himself a little bit out there, but I give him credit for coming forward and talking about it and I sympathize with him. It's a touchy subject because you don't want to affect the other players in your group."
Bradley, whose own idiosyncrasies did not really come to light last season, apologized to the golf world back in February for repeatedly spitting during overtime at the 2012 Northern Trust Open and for what critics viewed as a drawn-out routine prior to each shot. He -- like Na -- shouldered the blame for his actions and pledged to do better.
As with his habit of incessant expectorating, Bradley said he was oblivious to how he repeatedly backed off each shot during his playoff with Phil Mickelson and Bill Haas and might consider adjustments.
"It's something that you don't even really realize you're doing when you're in the heat of it," he said at the time. "I will take a look at it and see if there's any improvements that I can make."
Tuesday, referring to his efforts to speed up his approach, Bradley said that -- unlike Na -- officials had never put him on the clock.
"I've never felt that I have affected others, which if I did," he acknowledged, "I would be mortified."

It's Easter Sunday, and a young woman is on her morning run. She makes a turn, jogging towards an alley. Then, a security camera catches this...
"[She] drops her pants, and lets go, puts her shorts back on, without any wipe, nothing else..." says a renter, who wants to be called "Bobby".
The man who lives at the home did not want his face on-camera, and wants us to call him "Bobby". "This is malicious fecal distribution. She has come back multiple times!" he says.
She has done this at least four times, Bobby says. He has no idea who she is, and why his home has become her personal toilet. He says she always strikes on weekend mornings. In fact, his security cameras caught her again this past Saturday.
"I saw this little blonde girl running down the street. I said, 'oh my God! That's got to be her!'" Bobby says.
Unsure, Bobby left his home and did some errands. When he came back, the evidence was there.
"This is calculated, look...'look, I'm dropping my pants as I'm running'," Bobby says.
He's hoping this story makes whoever the culprit is...stop. "If it happens again, I'm going to run out there with a hose, and hose her down and say, 'bad human!'" Bobby says.

Injustice fails at straddling the line between competition and fun, but delivers epic fan service
Injustice: Gods Among Us
- 360
- Wii U
Injustice: Gods Among Us takes place in an alternate universe where Superman has created an oppressive dictatorship that spans the globe. Both heroes and villains tremble at his power. The alternate universe's Batman summons the true DC heroes to help him stop the rampaging alien gone mad. In other words, it's pretty much Crisis on Infinite Earths, made more violent.
"I know it's soon but… think you'll ever love again?" Joker says as Superman's hand is wrapped around his throat – the man from Krypton's wife and child have been murdered, and their flatlining hearts have triggered a nuke in downtown Metropolis. Even worse, it's Superman himself who killed them, after being tricked by the Clown Prince of Crime into thinking he was fighting Doomsday.
The Man of Steel's eyes light up red, and he plunges his hand into Joker's chest. This is the opening to NetherRealm's Injustice: Gods Among Us. It's shocking, engaging, and the brutal murder brings to mind NetherRealm's previous game, Mortal Kombat. That's far from where the similarities end, however.
Superpowered Kombat
If you played NetherRealm's Mortal Kombat reboot, you'll feel right at home with Injustice. Characters dash forward with a double tap of left or right, successful combos are based around juggling, and special moves are activated with two direction buttons followed by an attack button. There are some minor tweaks, however.
For instance, there is no longer a dedicated block button. Instead, you press down to block low attacks, and back to block mid and high attacks. This should please fighting game community veterans, as it makes cross-ups possible. Throws are also now a single button input, and not the 50/50 mixup they were in Mortal Kombat.
Each character's super meter is also beefier, with an additional segment to boost your special moves. Input a special move and pull the right trigger immediately after successful input to activate a more powerful version of the same move, or let the meter build to full and unleash an ultimate attack. These super moves are somewhere between 11 and "holy hell" on a 1-10 scale; Superman uppercuts his foe into the atmosphere and then smashes them to Earth, Batman tasers his target before running them over with the Batmobile, Flash runs around the Earth to build up enough speed for a massively powerful punch to the jaw, and so on.
Characters also have unique powers they can call on in the middle of battle, and these provide another tool for fighting strategists. Powers range in effect, though most boost a character's offensive capabilities in some way for a short time. Deathstroke gains increased speed, Flash makes his opponents slow down, Aquaman deals more damage, and so on. Other powers are more direct. Batman summons three small bat-bots which can be sent as ranged projectiles, and Green Arrow shoots… well, green arrows.
While Injustice's roots are very firmly, and obviously, planted in the Mortal Kombat foundation, there's enough here to make it stand apart. Unfortunately, not every addition or change is a welcome one.
Clash of the titans
There are no "rounds" in Injustice. Instead, characters have two health bars, and the battle takes a slight pause when a character reaches the end of their initial life meter. Once the fight picks up again, things take off right where they left off, including the other character's remaining health. So if you get whooped into losing your first bar of health before making a dent into your opponent's meter, you'll have two bars to get through while they'll only have one.
Players start out on equal footing, but the system makes it harder to come back if you play poorly in the opening moments of a match. You always feel like you have a chance in traditional fighting games, where it's just a matter of overcoming the opponent's single health bar, but this could make upsets rare. It stands in stark contrast to the rest of the game, where fun is prized over competition. This isn't the only problem.
Injustice's environments are bursting with personality; they crumble under the weight of god-like beings who tower over mere mortals clashing with one another, and you can feel the impact of the superpowered skirmish. The rubble and background objects often provide entertaining environmental hazards, such as rockets which fire from the Batmobile, or pipes which can be swung into your enemy's face.
While cool to watch, the environmental hazards can also feel pretty cheap. As far as I could tell, there's no way to block a car being thrown at you, which makes fighting against characters who can lift and throw heavy objects that weaker characters can't feel unfair. I purposefully kept myself in a corner in the Batcave so that I could spam the Batmobile's rockets. While not 100% effective, it worked pretty darn well, and the fact that I could play in such a cheap way is worrying.
Many levels also provide the ability to transition to another stage, and these too are cool as hell to witness. Knock an enemy off the ledge of a Gotham building and they'll be smashed with a wrecking ball before they drop to the tracks below and get smacked by an oncoming train.
That being said, not every member of Injustice's cast is a meta-human, and it's a little weird to watch Harley Quinn survive a train. Or a grinding drill. Or being catapulted through a solid stone statue. Or being jettisoned into space. Or even putting her in the attacker's boots, and watching her boot Superman through nine floors of a skyscraper.
Likewise, the game introduces "clashes," which have players wagering part or all of their super bar in an attempt to beat out the opponent's secret wager. The two heroes trade quips and rush each other, and trade blows in the center of the ring, Dragonball Z-style. The resulting explosion – which I assume is triggered due to too much awesome being concentrated in one area – knocks both characters back, and will either regenerate or deplete the defender's health based on the difference they won or lost the clash wager by.
Again, how this makes sense is beyond me. The Joker can meet, and match, Superman's punch? "Nonsensical but awesome" is the motto of the day here, and while that's fine for casual players it may put off the more technical fighting game community.
Tone deaf
Injustice features a well-rounded cast that will please any DC fan. The game has everyone from Batman to Shazam, Hawkgirl to Ares, and even manages to make Aquaman seem pretty badass. Even characters who didn't make it into the roster often show up in the background in some form or another. In one level, I could see Parasite from Superman, and fighting in Arkham Asylum allows you to throw an enemy into a room filled with Killer Croc, Penguin, Two-Face, and Riddler.
Comic fans aren't the only ones who will be pleased, as many of the cast will sound familiar to fans of the animated adventures of their favorite heroes. Tara Strong and Khary Payton reprise their roles from Teen Titans as Raven and Cyborg, respectively. George Newbern, who voiced Superman in the Justice League cartoon – among others – also returns. And of course, it wouldn't be Batman without Kevin Conroy.
Unfortunately, while NetherRealm's Mortal Kombat produced a surprisingly coherent, even compelling narrative, the plot for Injustice feels cheesy and relatively tame, especially contrasted against its opening sequence.
What's strange about this is that the use of violence and death is uneven; Superman kills Joker with his bare hands off-screen, and later burns a hole through another character's skull on-screen – and that person's secret identity makes this act all the more disturbing – but the game's characters are seen taking super pills which make them impervious to harm as an in-universe justification for their lack of broken bones or bruises.
Tonally, this game is all over the place.
Giving Dead or Alive a run for its money
This is going to sound like beating the drum of sexism, to the point that I second-guessed myself about bringing it up, but many of Injustice's females are handled pretty freaking poorly, even by comic book standards, and that's saying something.
When Green Arrow beats the alternate universe's version of Wonder Woman, he takes a few steps toward her and says, "And another thing: our universe's Wonder Woman is better looking!" Because yeah, take that, ugly! As if calling a woman less pleasant to look at than another is the ultimate diss.
Catwoman is even worse; standing still, she looks ready for a fight – move her forward though, and she stands up straight, puts both hands on her hips, and wriggles all sexy-like toward her opponent. Yes, I realize Catwoman uses her sexuality as a weapon in the comics, and to see her be coy doesn't surprise me, what's weird is seeing her go from animal-life fighting stance to "come hither" in half a second when it's totally unnecessary.
Even Wonder Woman has some disturbing body proportions, with a tiny head stacked on top of shoulders so broad you could land her invisible jet on them, and an arching back that sticks her chest out to a borderline impossible degree.
Female characters are sexualized, in video games and in comics, and Injustice is hardly the greatest offender. It's merely the most recent one, and the way it portrays female characters who could easily be justified as strong and non-sexualized is obnoxious to the point of distraction. Some female characters do use their sexuality as a weapon, but it doesn't make sense for every character in the game, especially when they're fighting to survive.
Justice is served
When the dust settles and the gods among us have fallen, Injustice stands as a fun and meaty fighter. There are plenty of modes to check out, each packed with content. If the game's story mode doesn't wet your whistle, check out Battle, which is Injustice's version of the classic Arcade mode.
Or, head online and rank up while customizing your player card with banners, images, and icons unlocked through play. Or, take a break from the standard fighting and jump into the STARS Lab, where you can take on unique challenges, such as breaking into a museum as Catwoman and then playing as her cat, Isis.
Or, or, or. The game has much to discover and unlock, and it rewards frequent playing. It may not be the most balanced fighter out there, and it may not quite live up to the strong impression Mortal Kombat left us with, but Injustice is still a fun, and often funny, brawler. There's nothing wrong in focusing a game on fans of fighting who like fun and flash over impeccable balance and competition, and Injustice serves that audience very well.

missing MySQL super user privileges for root
I have a Linux Ubuntu server with MySQL 5.1. I access this server from a remote Windows machine through SSH. I want to access its database using PremiumSoft Navicat software.
I tried to access it using the 'root' user. But it gave an error "2003 - can't connect to MySQL server on 192.168.0.89".
To correct this error following steps where done
1. bind-address = 0.0.0.0 of /etc/mysql/my.cnf
2. restart mysql
3. grant all privileges on *.* to 'root'@'192.168.0.89';
4. flush privileges;
After this i donot know what happened, I logged in as 'root' user and
'show databases;' command displays only 'information_schema'.
if i give 'use mysql;' it shows "ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user
'root'@'localhost' to database 'mysql' "
It seems that there is some problem in user privileges. Then i reinstalled MySQL and tried with 'root' user and repeated the 'show databases'. But the problem still exists.
Now what should i do? Please help!

text: Working Paper | HBS Working Paper Series | 2014 Does 'Could' Lead to Good? Toward a Theory of Moral Insight Ting Zhang, Francesca Gino and Joshua Margolis We introduce the construct of moral insight and study how it can be elicited when people face ethical dilemmas—challenging decisions that feature tradeoffs between competing and seemingly incompatible values. Moral insight consists of discovering solutions that move beyond selecting one conflicting ethical option over another. Moral insight encompasses both a cognitive process and a discernible output: it involves the realization that an ethical dilemma might be addressed other than by conceding one set of moral imperatives to meet another, and it involves the generation of solutions that allow competing objectives to be met. Across four studies, we find that moral insight is generated when individuals are prompted to consider the question "What could I do?" in place of their intuitive approach of considering "What should I do?" Together, these studies point toward a theory of moral insight and important practical implications. Keywords: Moral insight; Ethical dilemma; Could mindset; creativity; Divergent thinking; Moral Sensibility; Creativity; Decision Choices and Conditions; Citation:Zhang, Ting, Francesca Gino, and Joshua Margolis.

Apollo-kun says: First up is a game that I play on a regular basis! Postal 2 is a rude, crude and violent postmodern comedy much like a John Waters flick. The "AW7" adds vast improvements to the game as well. Worth every freakin' cent.
Apollo-kun says: Light on the blood, heavy on the blood, Bloodrayne 2 is the equivalent of SyFy Saturday Night movie. As sexy vampire Rayne, you must slice, hack, cut, gut, dismember, decapitate... eh, you get the point. A fun, bloody hack-n-slash game.
Apollo-kun says: The graphics are pretty horrid, the gameplay is dated, and the story is cheesy as all get-out. However, it's filled with cheap thrills and taken in same way as a B-horror movie, it's a winner.
Apollo-kun says: The ultimate B-movie game, simply because it's loaded with references to the genre. Duke Nukem 3D needs no introduction; it's a classic shoot-em-up with blood, babe, and big guns, not to mention ridiculous one-liners. One of my favorite games.
Apollo-kun says: Duke is back, but this time, he's in a sidescroller that ups the blood, gore, and one-liners prevalent in past entries. A fun, funny good time.
Apollo-kun says: What do you get when you pile together redneck humor, blood'n guts and big guns? An excellent slice of American cheddar is what.
Apollo-kun says: Too many enemies, too much ammo, too many bad jokes... It makes up one helluva a good time.
Apollo-kun says: Same as above.
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

Natural gas development has been booming in Marshall County ever since companies first tapped into Marcellus shale resources in northern West Virginia.
The Consumer Energy Alliance Mid-Atlantic has featured Marshall County in part three of its series illustrating the positive impacts of shale has development in various communities.
"Situated in the northern point of the state and nestled between the Ohio and Pennsylvania borders, Marshall County, WV lies in rich Marcellus and Utica Shale territory," a release from the CEA Mid-Atlantic states. "In fact, Marshall County has 36 Marcellus completed wells, with 143 set to come on line in the future. With this production in the area, Marshall County has recently become a draw for many companies operating in the region, including Chesapeake, Chevron, Consol Energy subsidiary CNX Gas Corp., Noble Energy, Trans Energy and Gastar Exploration, among others."
The CEA Mid-Atlantic predicts "significant manufacturing and economic growth for the area" due to the availability of the shale gas resources.
"It is one of the fortunate communities across America that is not only surviving, but also thriving during these difficult economic times thanks to the job creating and activity spurring production of domestic energy resources," the release states.
The result? Increased property values, higher pay wages and more jobs in Marshall County, the organization states.
"The economic [shale gas] benefits include 35,000 industry-related jobs, with average annual salaries of more than $60,000 for those directly employed... the industry pumps $757 million annually into the state economy through wages plus another $771 million in capital investments last year," said Michael McCown, president of the Independent Oil and Gas Association of West Virginia.
According to the release, John Hunnel, general manager at Auto Choice in Moundsville, is seeing a boom in sales of more expensive vehicles such as SUVs and luxury cars. Cindy Johnson, general manager of McLure Hotel in Wheeling told the CEA that occupancy rates have jumped from 40 to 75 percent since the "phenomenal" boom in business has been created by shale gas activity.
"We send the guys to the local businesses, like the Bridge Tavern (& Grill), River City (Ale Works), Uncle Pete's, Centre Market and other places," Johnson said.

Just last night, the rocker and mom of two all but confirmed her third pregnancy as she cradled her bump at the Wallis Annenberg Center For the Performing Arts Inaugural Gala in LA. The move ended months of speculation that the 44-year-old is, in fact, expecting. Gwen joins Rachel Zoe, who's rocking a baby bump at 42 years old and is due to welcome her second child this Winter. Whether it's a case of art imitating life or the other way around, the over-40 baby boom shows no signs of stopping. Check out which other celeb mamas haven't let their biological clocks get in the way of important family business. Source: Getty Gwen Stefani What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Last night, Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale all but confirmed the 44-year-old pop star's pregnancy when she cradled her growing baby bump at an event in LA. The simple gesture confirmed months of speculation. Source: Getty 1 / 26 Rachel Zoe What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Rachel Zoe, who just celebrated her 42nd birthday, recently announced she's expecting her second child with husband Rodger Berman on her site, The Zoe Report. "Before we head into the chaos of fashion season, we wanted to take a moment to officially confirm that we are expecting another child. We are beyond excited for Skyler to have a sibling and for us to fall in love all over again. We feel incredibly blessed." Source: Getty / Daniel Zuchnik 2 / 26 Halle Berry What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Halle Berry was 41 when she had her first child, daughter Nahla Ariela Aubry, in March 2008. Contrary to the difficulties so-called older mothers cope with during pregnancy, Berry told Harper's Bazaar: "My pregnancy was amazing. I was happy that whole time, I felt good, I had energy, I was like Superwoman. I wish I could feel like that for the rest of my life, that's how fantastic it was." Berry was 47 when she gave birth to her second child, Maceo, earlier this month. Source: Getty 3 / 26 Kelly Preston What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 After the heartbreaking loss of their son Jett at 16, Kelly Preston and John Travolta were thrilled when the mama delivered healthy baby Benjamin in 2010 — at the ripe young age of 48. Speaking to the Today show shortly after the birth, Preston said: "I didn't (consider this risks). I just considered that it was difficult. I never thought that would be me at all. So, I think we're just really happy that we're so fortunate." Source: Getty 4 / 26 Marcia Gay Harden What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Marcia Gay Harden was 44 when she had twins Hudson and Julitta Dee with husband Thaddaeus Scheel. Their first daughter, Eulala Grace, was born when Harden was 41. Source: Getty 6 / 26 Tina Fey What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For everyone's favorite funny woman, Tina Fey, the decision to have another baby — Fey is mom to 5-year-old Alice —wasn't an easy one. In her memoir Bossypants, Fey explains her trepidation about having another baby, writing: "Science shows that fertility and movie offers drop off steeply for women after 40." Fey gave birth to baby number two, Penelope, at 41 years old. Source: INFphoto.com 6 / 26 Salma Hayek What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Salma Hayek was 40 years old when she gave birth to her daughter, Valentina Paloma Pinault, with now-husband Francois-Henri Pinault. About not starting a family until she was 40, Salma said: "I'm a more fulfilled human being now, and I probably wouldn't have been 10 years ago. She gets a better mother for being born now." Source: Getty 7 / 26 Susan Sarandon What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Susan Sarandon gave birth to her first child, daughter Eva Amurri, at 39 and then went on to welcome sons Jack Henry at age 42 and Miles Guthrie at age 45.

After penning Down Came the Rain, her 2005 memoir about her battle with PPD, Shields had daughter Grier in 2006 at the age of 41. Source: Getty 11 / 26 Celine Dion What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 After multiple rounds of IVF and one devastating miscarriage, Celine Dion was 42 when she gave birth to twin boys, Eddy and Nelson, in 2010. That makes three boys for Dion and her husband, René Angélil, who also have 10-year-old René-Charles. In an interview with Us Weekly, Dion candidly discussed her understandable fears about a healthy pregnancy: "My doctors had to constantly reassure me . . . Each week I had sonograms. I heard their heart beats . . . It's stressful but I'm relaxing. I look at my little belly. I do almost nothing. If you tell me I have to stay in bed, I will stay in bed until November, when the babies are born. To bring them into the world, there's nothing more important than that. It's incredible." Source: Getty 11 / 26 Molly Ringwald What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 John Hughes muse Molly Ringwald was 41 when she gave birth to twins, Roman Stylianos and Adele Georgiana, in 2009. Ringwald was already a mom to daughter Mathilda Ereni, now 7. Source: Getty 12 / 26 Helen Hunt What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Helen Hunt was 40 years old when her daughter, Makena Lei Gordon Carnahan, was born. Hunt discussed her challenges getting pregnant in a 2008 article for Ladies Home Journal: "It turned out to be tougher to get pregnant than I thought it would be. I tried for a long time and it just didn't happen, to the point where getting pregnant became the greatest wish — and the greatest challenge — of my life. My fate wasn't to jump into the backseat of a car and have a baby. My boyfriend and I were on our last big try and if the baby hadn't come, we would have adopted. But then I did get pregnant — in 2003." Source: Getty 13 / 26 Geena Davis What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In 2002, at age 46, Geena Davis gave birth to daughter Alizeh. That worked out so well that in 2004, the 48-year-old had twin sons, Kian and Kaiis. Source: Getty 14 / 26 Meryl Streep What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Meryl Streep had her fourth child, Louisa Jacobson Gummer, in 1991 just before her 42nd birthday.

About having a child after 40, Nicole said: "I raised two kids when I was in my 20s, but that was a different thing. I was a kid and still so young mentally and emotionally — a totally different mom. There is something about mothering late in life. A lot of it is I want to stay alive for Sunday. There is plenty of deep fear and emotion. Sunday has healed an enormous amount in me. It's a very private thing, but she just has." Faith Margaret, Kidman's second daughter with husband Keith Urban, arrived via gestational surrogate in 2012. Source: INFphoto.com 16 / 26 Mariah Carey What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 One of the most anticipated celebrity births of 2011, 42-year-old Mariah Carey gave birth to twins Moroccan and Monroe in April that year. About trying for a successful pregnancy after a miscarriage, Mariah said: "The main thing I did that was tough, was to go on progesterone like every month . . . and then when I was pregnant, I had to stay with the progesterone for 10 weeks. It minimizes the chance of miscarriage by 50 percent." Source: Getty 17 / 26 Marcia Cross What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Not content to merely play one on TV, Marcia Cross desperately longed to be a real housewife. In less than one year, she got everything she wanted: Cross married Tom Mahoney in 2006 and gave birth to twin girls, Eden and Savannah, in February 2007 — just before she turned 45. Cross was very realistic about her chances of conceiving. Instead of a honeymoon, the couple began in vitro immediately after the wedding, and clearly it worked. Source: Getty 18 / 26 Beverly D'Angelo What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In 2001, at age 49, Beverly D'Angelo gave birth to twins Anton and Olivia Pacino with Al Pacino. Source: Getty 19 / 26 Mira Sorvino What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 After a complicated pregnancy followed by a taxing labor and delivery, Mira Sorvino delivered her third child, Holden Paul Terry, in June 2009 at age 41, and her fourth child, daughter Lucia, in May 2012 at age 44. Sorvino and husband Chris Backus were already parents to Johnny Christopher King and Mattea Angel. Source: Getty 20 / 26 Cheryl Tiegs What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Supermodel Cheryl Tiegs had her first child, Zack, at age 44 with then-husband Anthony Peck. Tiegs didn't push her luck — in 2000, when Tiegs was 52 and married to Rod Stryker, the couple had twin boys Jaden and Theo — via a surrogate. Source: Getty 21 / 26 Jennifer Connelly What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jennifer Connelly was 40 years old when she and husband Paul Bettany added a daughter to their all-boy brood. Agnes Lark joined big brothers Kai, 13, and Stellan, 7, in May 2011. Source: Getty 22 / 26 Mary Stuart Masterson What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The third time was definitely the charm for Mary Stuart Masterson, who had her first baby, a boy, at age 43 with her third husband, actor Jeremy Davidson. Like many women who try to get pregnant a little later in life, Masterson had to work at it a bit, she admitted. "I've been trying to get pregnant for a long time. I'm ready, I'm excited!" The couple is clearly doing something right; they welcomed twins in August 2011 when the actress was 44, and she gave birth to a fourth child in October 2012, when she was 45. Source: Getty 23 / 26 Uma Thurman What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 After having two kids with ex-husband Ethan Hawke, Maya and Levon, Uma Thurman welcomed her third, Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson, in July 2012 at 42 years old.

My Dream Sports-Tourer?
This last weekend's crushing disappointment over having my offer for that 2005 ZZR1200 rejected and my jotting down of some motorcycle perspectives came at about the same time. Because, in considering the ZZR, I've been thinking about the bike I really want to have.
If I could have a dream sports-tourer, it would have the following characteristics:
- Wet weight: under 600 lbs.
- Great handling
- Hard bags
- 90lb-ft of torque and 140+HP at the rear wheel, enough to give me a 1/4 in the mid 10s.
- Good wind protection, including an adjustable windscreen.
- Handlebars that allow easy mounting of electronics.
- Heated grips
- 2 aux. 12-volt electric outlets
Give me that, and I'll happily live with a chain drive to save weight.
But what I think I've actually just done is designed a K1600GT with a chain drive. Let's see, wet weight, 703 lbs…
Yeah. That's what I did.
Maybe that extra 100 lbs isn't a deal-breaker.
Oh, speaking of the new BMW K1600 bikes, BMW released the prices today. $21,000 for the GT, $23,000 for the GTL. Compared to the inflated price of a Gold Wing, that $23k for the GTL is a steal.

---- — SARANAC — A maple sugar house was destroyed by fire Friday afternoon.
No one was injured.
Cadyville Fire Chief James Favaro said the sugar shack, located at 25 Clark Hill Road in Saranac, was privately owned and the owners were present at the site when fire departments responded.
The call was initially dispatched shortly after 2 p.m.
About 20 firefighters from fire departments from Saranac, Cadyville and Dannemora worked to extinguish the blaze, Favaro said.
Favaro said the Cadyville Volunteer Fire Department was back in service at about 3:45 p.m.
He was unsure if the owners had insurance.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation, Favaro said.
A representative from the Saranac Volunteer Fire Department who was present at the fire could not be reached Friday.

Eric Gordon out 2-3 weeks with right knee injury
Not good, folks. Just reported by Sean Kelley, Jimmy Smith, and Jim Eichenhofer, Hornets guard Eric Gordon will be sitting out 2-3 weeks to rest his injured knee. They called the original injury a bone bruise and he previously missed 4 games. He apparently experienced swelling after playing in Wednesday's loss to the 76ers. With Trevor Ariza still out with a groin injury, your projected starters on the wing tonight against a very good Denver team are Marco Belinelli and Al-Farouq Aminu. Yep. We'll update with any details as soon as they come.

East High football coach Kody Asmus is stepping down from that position. Asmus led the Trojans the past 3 seasons.
In his first year at the helm, Asmus led the team to the playoffs for the first time since 1991. His teams recorded winning regular seasons the past 2 years, and the Trojans won a playoff game this past season for the first time since 1979.
Asmus, who coached at NU High prior to coming to East, is relocating to the Des Moines area with his family. He currently has no other coaching position in the works.

In June 2012, the Committee on National Statistics (sponsored by the U.S. Census Bureau) convened a Workshop on the Benefits (and Burdens) of the American Community Survey (ACS)---the detailed demographic and economic survey that began full-scale data collection in 2005 and that replaced the traditional "long form" in the 2010 census. ACS data are used by numerous federal agencies to administer programs, yet the ACS only moved from abstraction to reality for most users in 2010, when the first ACS estimates for small areas (based on 5 years of collected data) were made available. Hence, the workshop marked the opportunity to develop a picture of the breadth of the nonfederal user base of the ACS---among them, the media, policy research and evaluation groups (that distill ACS results for the media and broader public), state and local agencies, businesses and economic development organizations, and local and regional planning authorities---and to gather information on users' experiences with the first full releases of ACS products.
In addition to covering innovative uses of the information now available on a continuous basis in the ACS, the workshop gave expression to the challenges and burdens associated with the survey: the time burden places on respondents, the challenges of explaining and interpreting estimates with increased levels of variability, and the privacy and confidentiality implications of some of the ACS content. Benefits, Burdens, and Prospects of the American Community Survey: Summary of a Workshop provides a factual summary of the workshop proceedings and hints at the contours of the ACS user constituency, providing important input to the ongoing review and refinement of the ACS program.

Uniting The Pet Rescue Community
Filling a vital community need, PACC911 brings together over 120 animal welfare organizations throughout Arizona, most of which are within Maricopa County. PACC911 provides opportunities for its partners to work together for the benefit of the animals and assists animal welfare partners in 5 distinct ways:
PACC911 has helped raise over $2.3 million for homeless animals through innovative events and dedicated fundraising.
Adoption Events
Our large outdoor adoptathons help find loving homes for the animals in the care of partnering groups. Between 2004 and 2011, over 6,300 pets were adopted at PACC events. In 2011, coalition partners combined adopted out 15,600 pets.
We're committed to educating and influencing people of all ages about responsible pet care and the humane treatment of animals, including why spaying and neutering is critical to tackling the pet overpopulation crisis.
Food Bank
PACC911′s Chuck Waggin' Pet Food Pantry assists low income families and the elderly with food for their pets, assuring that they can stay in their homes rather than being relinquished.
Medical Aid
The Emergency Medical Fund and the newer Lulu's Angel Fund helps with veterinary assistance for sick and abused animals. Since 2004, we have dispensed over $500,000 to animal welfare partners to help ill or injured animals become more adoptable.

Steven Boucher is passionate about le langue français and in promoting French language education in Saskatchewan.
"I think French education is important," he enthused. "I think that we can't just balk at it and think, 'oh, everyone speaks English and that's it.' The question should always be how are you challenging yourself academically; how are you challenging yourself as a person? There's a lot to be told within French culture, within the history of it, and I think there's a lot of beauty in French culture."
Boucher, a new French immersion teacher at Sacred Heart High School, challenged his Grade 9 French Language Arts students during the fall semester to create their own children's storybooks and take them to St. Michael's to read to the Grade 2 students. He said projects like this bring education alive to kids.
"I think as teachers we have to bring innovative ideas to the classroom," he explained. "It's not just something you hand in, you get marked and get back. It's their own creation and it gives them pride in their work. There was effort put into this; they challenged themselves. If you can get a student to challenge themself, that's when you know you're challenging them in a good way."
Boucher also believes it yielded big benefits for the younger kids as well.
"First off, they're experiencing something different," he said. "Most students just hear their teacher throughout the year and that's not a bad thing because you build relationships with your students, but you also want to introduce something new to them.
"The little kids love stories, but when you have the author in front of you explaining the pictures, explaining why they did it, you can see that the kids are in awe and they really get excited because now they're interacting with the bigger kids and it's a cool thing you've got the bigger kids coming to visit. It works wonderfully."
For Boucher, whose second language is French, it starts with the children, but he believes everyone in Saskatchewan can benefit from recognizing the role French has played in the province's history pointing out the Métis heritage and the many French communities that still dot the prairie landscape.
"French education is our history; it is the foundation of Canada's education system," he said. "To not acknowledge it would be, first off an insult to who we are as a people. Secondly, we are a bilingual province. I think sometimes there isn't enough credit given to it because we think only Quebec is French, or New Brunswick in certain sections, but Saskatchewan is very heavily involved in French.
"The reason I push French experience is because we have to remember our constitution is based on us being a bilingual country. We have to keep reinforcing a) our roots and b) where we're going with that."
In that regard, Boucher references psychological studies that indicate people who know two languages may actually be using more of their brain power and may even have a lower risk of developing mental illnesses later in life.
He also believes that knowing more than one language gives people a better grasp of language in general.

Researchers have found a link between a pregnant woman's labor and the risk of having a child with autism.
A new study from Duke Medicine found that inducing labor and increasing the strength or frequency of contractions may raise the chances of autism -- especially in boys.
"What we found was an elevated risk of around 35 percent risk for males who were induced and augmented," said Dr. Simon Gregory with the Duke Center for Human Genetics.
Autism affects approximately one in 88 children in the United States. Doctors don't know exactly what causes autism, but scientists suspect genetics and environment play a role.
"This study gives us another environmental factor that may be influencing risk for autism. Again, while these findings are preliminary and the risk was modest, it still raises some red flags," said Michael Rosanoff, Associate Director Public Health Research with the group Autism Speaks.
That's because about 20 percent of births in the U.S. are induced and about 70 percent are augmented.
But researchers caution the study doesn't show that these measures actually cause autism and that more study is needed. "What we haven't found is the reasons of the increase. It could have something to do with the circumstances of maternal health. It could be events at birth
or it could be the augmentation or induction process itself," Dr. Gregory said.
Doctors say the best advice for women is to learn about typical childhood development, so you can spot the early warning signs of autism.

DVD Bargain Bin
mutant chronicles
Mutant Chronicles
has been in a holding pattern for a good year now, but finally it is hitting the video store in both Blu-ray and DVD flavors. Starring Thomas Jane, Ron Perlman, John Malkovich and a whole host of other notable genre vets, the movie has had tons of buzz but bad luck getting released. Our own Louis Fowler
gave it a 9 out of 10
so mark this dark little scifi flick as a worthy of checking out.
The name was taken again in 1997 for a similar setup, but this edition of
Campfire Tales
is the 1991 anthology flick starring the likes of Gunnar Hansen. A group of teens harassed by a grizzled hobo telling spooky tales sets up the four horror shorts that make up the movie.
Stephen comes home to find his wife has killed herself in the bathtub. Days later, he heads back to work to be given a patient who has tried to kill herself in the same manner as his wife. As the plot unfolds, so does Nina's taste for blood!
was originally released as "Daddy's Girl" in 2006 and stars "Donkey Punch" alum Jaime Winstone
A Thai detective kills himself. No, not because he was sad, to enter the realm of the dead and become a Opapatika! (For you laymen out there, that means 'super powered demon fighter'.) Banding together with a gang of other Oparika's... Opapa... demon warriors, they setup off to kill a gang of demon baddies!
This little nugget of Grindhouse goodness from Sub Rosa has two features;
Psycho Santa
Satan Claus
. Nothing like a little Christmas in August huh? I don't know the plots for either of these movies but if I had to guess, I'd say it had something to do with Santa not being too overly jolly!
A pair of paranormal investigators team up with a woman to help her solve her sister's ghostly murder. Starring Debbie Rochon,
is a new Timo Rose joint.
Losing her arm in a thug attack that took her brothers life, young Ami is taken in by kindly garage workers who decide to help her out.... By mounting a machine gun on her arm. We've all heard of the Japanese gore fest
The Machine Girl
. Now we get a Region 1 release of "The Machine Girl Remix", meaning more blood and guts! (And more school girl uniforms!) (I hope.)
Jim Caviezel stars in
Nature's Grave
. A couple takes off to go camping with friends. One friend decides to get careless with his gun and shoot some trees. Trees don't like to be shot, not at all. The happy campers then spend an entire weekend defending themselves from nature.
Music agent Bernie Stein, his scientist nephew Frankie, and a drugged out roadie named Iggy team to create a superstar by putting together the remains of dead rockers. All goes to plan until Iggy steals the private parts of Liberace instead of Jim Morrison for the creature! If
Rock and Roll Frankenstein
doesn't sound like a classic, I don't know what does.
is an homage to the old fashioned anthology flick. Containing five horror shorts, it should be a good solution to those with short attention sp...
Peter Benchley's
The Beast
is a 1996 sea monster movie starring CSI's William Peterson. Available for quite awhile now on DVD, this week's release marks the films arrival to Blu-ray.
There are no less that 10 movies on IMDb with the name
, but this version is the 1982 William Fruet classic. A group of college kids head off to the woods and inadvertently witness a redneck killing his wife. Smart enough to know that witnesses are bad, a long weekend of cat and mouse chicanery evolves as the redneck tries to lay his fears to rest.
Zombie Apocalypse
. There are zombies, it's the end of the world. Join along as we watch three college students try and fight for their survival. Also known as "HOLY SHIT MORE ZOMBIES XXVII Pt. 2".
I reviewed
Alien Uprising
back in June and needless to say, I wasn't too impressed. If you're brave though or have a thing for low budget alien warfare? This may be right up your alley!

Catherine "Kay" "Pat" S. Holden, of Cary, North Carolina completed her spiritual transition on Sunday, June 23, 2013, at the age of 87.
She was awaited by her beloved husband, James Edwin Holden, and her eldest daughter, Kathryn Holden Pattishall; her four siblings: Sophie, Mickey, Helen, and Johnny; her mother, Mary Korda Sabryga; and, her father, John Sabryga.
Born in New York City in 1925, Kay's faith, truth, and love were cemented through the Greek Orthodox Church, where, during services, she sang and played the mandolin. After high school, she met a young sailor, Jim Holden. They married in October of 1946. She then wholeheartedly became loving mother, decorator, homemaker, nurse, seamstress, and hairstylist to two daughters, Kathy and Coleen. When the girls entered high school, Kay took a position as a typist, and then, as an assistant to Jim Graham, in the North Carolina State Department of Agriculture. She remained with the Department until her retirement.
Catherine "Kay" was a tireless caregiver to her children, the family pets, her mother, Mary; her sister, Helen; and her husband, Jim, before their passing. She is survived by a daughter, Coleen Victoria Holden, of Raleigh, North Carolina; and, a granddaughter, Michelle DeLayne Mullins, of Mountain View, California.
A memorial service will be held 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, July 2, 2013, at Bryan-Lee Funeral Home, 831 Wake Forest Road, Raleigh. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service. Entombment will follow at Brier Creek Memorial Gardens.

That camera is so tilted to make this look steep. I know for a fact you almost fell on a 5.6 in the 'Gunks. In fact, I know you almost knuckled on a 5.0.
Let me get this straight, you don't like the camera angle because it makes him look like a badass on a 5.12? It's a picture dude.
In fact, the camera makes it look less steep than it actually is. The section of the climb at the top of the photo is actually so steep that you are climbing back towards the ground at that point.
More proof that CO has no clue what sarcasm is.
Lets be honest, Gunks 5.6 is more like CO 5.12!

The military haircut just may be my arch nemesis. While there are things that bother me more about being an Army wife - let's not forget deployments and three-hour waits in a primary-care manager's office - the topic you'll find me grumbling about most often is my husband's hair.
One of the more fiscally irresponsible components of President Obama's budget proposal for fiscal year 2012 is the plan to increase surface "transportation" spending by more than 84 percent - from $58 billion to $107 billion - over FY 2010 spending levels.
In a remarkable resurrection, the bill that would allow alcohol sales on Sunday, passed the very body – the state Senate – that had vowed to let it languish in committee. And languish it did for a month before its recovery last week.
Dear Editor: The residents of Bryan County should be concerned about the behind-closed-door policies reminiscent of the city of Savannah policies. We all should be concerned about a landfill proposal on acreage which contains wetlands, streams and backs up to a major contributor "Black Creek" to the Ogeechee River.
Dear Editor: I received the following e-mail from our new Commissioner of Agriculture, Gary Black. If you have ever seen the Georgia Market Bulletin, you know there is no hyperbole in Commissioner Black's praise. This is a very useful resource for Georgia farmers. I do not see a viable substitute to replace the bulletin on the horizon. So I wanted to share the message he sent March 8 to University of Georgia Extension personnel:
There are many stereotypes associated with the Republican Party, one being that all Republicans are old men who wear suits and glasses. Also, women and minorities tend to be looped in the same category as Democrats, just because they appear to be more sympathetic.
There is a 127-page bill, House Bill 385, moving through the Georgia Legislature that would, if passed, shift the tax burden drastically on to the backs of consumers. In its opening paragraphs it states that the purpose of the bill is to "implement the recommendations of the 2010 Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness for Georgians." ... At least one member of the committee said the bill doesn't look anything like what they recommended. ...
I called Junior E. Lee, vice president and general manager of Round or Square Polls Inc., a subsidiary of The Yarbrough Multinational Media and Pest Control Co., located over a pool hall in Greater Garfield, Ga., to see who he thinks might be running for president in 2012.
After four full days of session, the Georgia General Assembly finished its 28th legislative day Friday. With only 12 days of session left, the Capitol is full of activity as members of the legislature continue with our responsibility of completing the people's work.
Day 25 (March 7): Today was 10th Amendment Day in the Senate as we took up three bills aimed at strengthening the rights of the state of Georgia under federal law. The 10th Amendment says the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution or prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states.
I've noticed that the older we get, the more we wonder about what happened to some of those people we grew up with. I think we are curious to know how many of them are still with us ... if we won the race, so to speak, or if we should have a reunion do we need to reserve more than one table.
Isn't there enough secrecy in government? Apparently not, according to Sen. Jeff Mullis, R-Chickamauga, who earlier in the current legislative session introduced a bill that would curtail transparency in government by allowing governmental and quasi-governmental agencies to keep certain information from the public.
A.D. Frazier is not a happy camper. My friend and former Atlanta Olympic colleague spent last summer chairing the Special Council on Tax Reform and Fairness for Georgians, a 10-member council appointed by Gov. Sonny Perdue, Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle and House Speaker David Ralston.
Dear Editor: Thanks to the voluntary assistance of folks from Bryan County, the library at 9607 Ford Ave. in Richmond Hill has received a new coat of paint on the interior along with several other tasks being completed.
Day 20 (Feb. 28): For the second session day in a row I had a bill on the floor as I presented SB 95, legislation that I am sponsoring on behalf of the Police Chiefs Association of Georgia.
For many of us, the word "home" signifies refuge, safety, caring, warmth and love - a sanctuary where we belong. Home is the place that we know is waiting for us at the end of our daily journey into the rushed and sometimes chaotic world. I love coming home in the evening- even if it is a particularly late night, which happens often. The first thing I listen for when I walk in the door is a greeting from my wife and daughter. Nothing beats a "Hey Honey" and "Hi Daddy, how was your day."
Our veterans shouldn't need an act of Congress and a presidential signature to get the Veterans Affairs healthcare system up to speed.
