Nowrich City lead Arsenal 2-1 at halftime in today's only Premier League game thanks to goals from Wes Hoolahan and Grant Holt, with The Canaries firmly in charge at the Emirates.
Arsenal have had their wobbles at home this season, notably the recent defeat to Wigan Athletic, but as the side look to move closer to securing Champions League football for next season they were handed the perfect start when Israeli international Yossi Benayoun opened the scoring after just two minutes.
It was a lovely strike by Benayoun, cutting in from the left hand side of midfield, onto his right foot and curling the ball beyond John Ruddy into the top corner with just a minute and six second on the clock.
That didn't deter Norwich though, and almost hit back after five minutes when Simeon Jackson charged down the left, cut the ball back to top scorer Grant Holt unmarked in the Arsenal area, but his shot was blocked well by Kieran Gibbs.
Norwich continued to press following Benayoun's opener, and looked the better side. The Canaries got their reward when Wes Hoolahan equalized in the eleventh minute. A nice passing move involving Jonny Howson and Elliott Bennett opened up space for on-loan defender Kyle Naughton to cross for Hoolahan to finish, with a little help however from Wojciech Szczesny.
The Polish international will be very disappointed with his part in the goal as the ball managed to wriggle under him, when it wasn't travelling at any great speed. Very poor indeed.
Norwich continued to press as Arsenal pressed the self-destruct button, and on 26 minutes, Norwich, deservedly, had the lead through Grant Holt.
Arsenal in pressing to retake the lead left themselves horribly exposed at the back, with only two defenders against Norwich's counter attack. Hoolahan fed Holt, who after adjusting his footwork found the back of the net, via the boot of Gibbs which gave the ball a crucial deflection up and over Szczesney.
Arsenal's agony became even worse when Bacary Sagna was forced off on a stretcher in bizarre circumstances on 30 minutes. Stretch for a ball under no pressure, the defender must have suffered a muscular injury as after a hefty stoppage, he was replaced by Francis Coquelin, himself only recently back from a hamstring injury.
Arsenal had a few chances to level though. Robin Van Persie, having a very quiet game was a whisker away from connecting with a cross where he'd have surely leveled, while Gibbs also scuffed wide after good work from Gervinho inside the area.
Arsenal could count themselves lucky on several occasions as the half drew to a close. First of all that they still had eleven men on the pitch when Benayoun kicked out at Bradley Johnson, then later two penalty appeals which were turned down by Anthony Taylor.
The first occurred when Francis Coquelin seemed to get the wrong side of Hoolahan, bringing him to the ground with a sliding challenge. You've seen them given, but for me the Arsenal defender just got enough on the ball to ensure the right call was made.
The second however the referee got horribly wrong. A Naughton cross into the area should have been met by Russell Martin at the front post, if it wasn't for Laurent Koscielny pulling his shirt all over, and very blatantly. It was as they say a stonewaller. Not given.
After the break, Arsenal have to come out much, much better. They seem sluggish, and out of ideas where as Norwich are very good value for their lead.

If you've never made homemade shrimp stock before, this is an easy way to discover the virtues of it. You don't need a huge pot, and you only need shells from three pounds of shrimp. This will allow you to experience the deepest, sweetest, most delicate essence of shrimp. You will never throw away another shell.–Emeril Lagasse
LC Save Those Shrimp Shells! Note
Yes, you'll need to save some shrimp shells before you can set about making this stock. Although let's be clear about one thing. You don't want to be salvaging shells from family members' plates after they've slurped spice from whole shrimp. No. No. No. Were talking about setting aside those shells that you peel from shrimp prior to cooking them. We even call ahead to our favorite fish counter and ask them to set aside shrimp shells for us when we know we want to make stock. As for what to do with the sweet, delicate stock that ensues? Why, you make the best shrimp n' grits you've ever encountered.
Shrimp Stock Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Makes about 3 quarts
- 1 to 1 1/2 pounds shrimp shells (and heads, if available)
- 1 cup coarsely chopped yellow onion
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped celery
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped carrots
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed with the side of a heavy knife
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons black peppercorns
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1. Rinse the shrimp shells and heads in a large colander under cold running water.
- 2. Place all of the ingredients in a large, heavy-bottomed stockpot. Add enough water to cover the shells by 1 inch (about 3 1/2 quarts water). Bring to a boil, skimming the foam that forms on the surface. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- 3. Strain the stock through a fine-mesh sieve into a large container. Cool completely, cover, and refrigerate. (The stock can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen in airtight containers for up to 2 months. Tip: Freeze the stock in ice cube trays, then pop out the cubes, and toss them into a resealable freezer bag. That way you can use the exact amount called for in a recipe.)

MAGPIES: Dorchester complete Walker signing
Updated 8:52am Monday 12th May 2014 in Sport By Dan Rose, Sports Reporter
DORCHESTER Town have announced the permanent signing of central-defender Nathan Walker.
Walker, who has been on loan with the Magpies from Weymouth over the second period of the season, has penned a 12-month deal with the club to the delight of manager Phil Simkin.
The Dorchester boss told Echosport: "It was very important and a massive signing for us, we will build the team around him quite frankly and things are shaping up quite well.
"He was the youngest captain in the Wessex League with me at Hamworthy United at just 19 and we know each other very well, I know what I'm going to get from him and he knows what he is going to get from me.
"We have always been a good partnership and I'm delighted that he is back home where he belongs."
As a defender, the Magpies' boss believes there will be no one better than Walker in the Southern Premier League next year.
He added: "Having spent the last two and a half months here, he realises that this is where he needs to be, he played his best football here before, and he will play it here again.
"He will probably be the top centre-half in the league, I can't see anybody better than him and we are delighted to have him back on board."
Walker becomes the second player to sign for Dorchester from Weymouth in the last two weeks with the arrival of striker Ben Joyce to the Avenue last week.

The H.E.A.R.T. club is an after-school foundation set up to help our community in the Rockland County area of New York, 30 miles north of New York City. The club meets once a week and plans services to help give aid to people who have disabilities, are hospitalized or are senior citizens.
This club is not for people who like to stand around, but instead we are very active. In just one meeting, we made place cards for Valentine's Day at our local hospital, we baked cookies for senior citizens and made several teddy bears for babies born addicted to crack. We also hand out pamphlets at a regional walk-a-thon in order to help raise money for cancer groups.
This is a very dedicated club that is willing to help our community. We spend several hours each week planning what we are going to do and raise funds for supplies. We strive to do positive work and hope more people will help contribute to our goals and make our community a better place. fl

A Dora the Explorer guitar, dragster cars and desktop magnets made the naughtylist.Experts say the guitar is too loud and could damage hearing, the cars have tires that could become a choking hazard and the magnets could lead to serious health problems if swallowed by children.There is some good news; the group found fewer toys contaminated with toxins like lead, cadmium and phthalatesOne of the things to look at is the size of toys.To test if little kids could swallow a toy, take a toilet paper roll and try to put the toy inside the empty roll.If it fits, it is too small for a child under three.

This Commentary is addressed to Daniele Bennett, the blue-eyed girl whose photo is on the front page of today's (Jan. 5. 2006) International Herald Tribune. The girl, whose father died in a West Virginia coal mine not many hours ago.
In the Tribune article we read: "A grim-faced mining company official told several hundred friends and relatives of the miners , gathered in a small Baptist church near the mine, that all but one of the 12 trapped men had, in fact, died… 'People who had been praising God a minute before were cursing him', …" Of course, the word "him" refers to the official. However, as humans with the ability to think rationally we might ask: If the Divine Father loves his children why did he kill Daniele's father? Naturally, this is the wrong question to ask. It was not any Divine entity that killed Daniele's father. It was the brutal greed of humans that killed her father. Greed that forced humans to extract coal from thirty-inch thick seams or even sixteen-inch thick seams and who had "to crawl the shaft on their bellies". (Meade Arble, "The Long Tunnel: A Coal Miner's Journal", Atheneum, New York, 1976. It is rather certain that Daniele knows more about this brutality than Meade Arble, the son of a doctor, who tasted a miner's life for only one year.)
The face of Daniele, full of youth, pain, and anger (mostly anger), urges one to try to console her by sharing with her the pain and anger that was crushing other humans in this part of the world during the same hours or days that she and her father were in extreme agony. Here are the events:
- A few days ago, during the early hours of January 1, 2006, in the town of Rethymnon on the island of Crete, seven people, a 40-year-old Greek father, his 18-year-old son (a Greek army conscript), four young Greeks aged 18 to 21, and a 28-year-old Bulgarian woman (a girlfriend of the father) broke into the home of a family of Albanian migrant workers, beat the middle-aged Albanian father almost to death and killed his 17-year-old son by knifing him 17 times. The beating was done by all of them. The knifing by the 18-year-old Greek army conscript.
This is what caused these humans to beat and kill: The Greek conscript got angry in a bar because an Albanian young man was wearing a T-shirt with the Albanian flag printed on it! A fight ensued. After the fight, the Greeks (plus the Bulgarian girl friend) decided to punish the Albanian with the offensive T-shirt. They could not find him, so they attacked the only Albanian family whose address was known to them. The butchered 17-year-old Albanian had nothing to do with the original incident.
[Parenthesis: The Island of Crete has played a significant role in human history. It was the stepping stone for the transfer of the thousands-of-years long Egyptian civilization to mainland Greece, then to Europe, to the U.S., etc. As a matter of fact the American Youth since the "radical" sixties had chosen Crete, especially the beaches south of Rethymnon, as their "watering hole" and millions upon millions of ordinary Americans have visited Crete. How come then that today, given this background, there are Cretans who can kill a human in the most brutal way for a printed piece of cloth?
There is no mystery here. The murderous Cretan father and son are the products of a wordwide process of creating (nazi-type) "nationalists" out of the populations of certain "usefull" nations. Strangely, this "nationalism" coincides with the interests of the US elites! I myself have gone through this process of (US-made) "nationalist indoctrination" since 1947, in the high school, the university, the army (as a conscript!), etc, etc. Greece (especially Crete) was and is an extremly "usefull" piece of property to the US elites. The most important US military base in the world, the "Souda Base", lies close to Rethymnon.
The US elites that created monsters, as the above murderous Cretans, are the same elites "from both (US) parties that have long ... profited from ties to the coal industry... Steven Griles, a mining lobbyist before being appointed deputy secretary of the interior (by Bush), devoted four years to rolling back mine regulations and then went back to lobbying for the industry." (This in an editorial in the Jan. 5 issue of the New York Times not in a radical publication!). End of the parenthesis]
A demonstration against this hideously racist act is to take place on January 11 in Rethymnon.
– The same day (Jan. 5, 2006) that Daniele's picture appeared in the International Herald Tribune, in the front page of a Greek paper ("Eleftherotypia") there was a large photo of a rather elegant gentleman resembling a typical middle-aged American WASP. That the gentleman was in his shorts (as he was participating in the November '05 International Marathon in Athens) did not detract from his elegance. It only proved his dedication to the classical Greek ideals. Also, that he is not an American but a Briton (that is a "poodle" of the Americans) does not diminish his effectiveness in his chosen profession, that of a "war criminal" (according to his compatriots' claims in the Internet) and a torturer. The name of the gentleman: Nicholas Langman. A high ranking officer of the British equivalent (or better the progenitor) of the American CIA, known as the MI6. [Note: The "poodle" relationship holds for the respective elites not for the ordinary people.]
The latest accomplishments of Nicholas Langman, Esq. made even the pages of "Time" magazine. Ten days after four bombs went off in London on July 7 of last summer Langman, his black driver, and assorted Greek pigs (Greek police torturers, Greek Intelligence people, et al, all in the service of the US president for almost half a century) abducted 28 Pakistani migrant workers living in various parts of Greece, drove them to some place close to Athens and tortured them trying to extract information about the London bombing. The "interogation" did not produce any guilt for the Pakistanis and they were released. Three of them testified that "When they let us go they told us not to talk. They said that if we did they would slit our throats." While the Pakistanis were "interogated" in Greece their families in Pakistan were undergoing a similar treatment.
Langman was driven around Greece by his black driver (who advised those being tortured to speak so that the "interogation" should stop) in a green "Cherokee" SUV . Langman can be a torturer, as he is white and probably very religious, but should a black be a torturer of brown Pakistanis to earn his daily bread?
The "Time" magazine piece mentions (out of the blue) that "Frangiscos Ragoussis, the Greek lawyer representing " some of the Pakistanis, "also represented a member of the Greek terrorist organization November 17 who is serving multiple life sentences" This way "Time" is trying to implicitly link the Pakistanis with terrorism. Unfortunately for "Time", that same lawyer represented Eirineos, the deposed Greek Patriarch who "guards" the (supposed) tomb of Christ in Jerusalem, and which Patriarch was accused of selling Palestinian land to the Israelis. Eirineos is still a close friend of the Israelis, therefore the Israelis are implicitly linked to the November 17 terrorists.
As expected, the governments of Britain, Greece, and Pakistan originally denied there was abduction, etc of any Pakistanis. However, little by little they have been changing their tune (or spin) admitting that there is something there. The case is still pending. We shall see.
[Note: Langman is accused of having a lot to do with the death of Diana of England. There is an affidavit, or something, by a former member of the British Intelligence deposited in Switzerland about this. Even if that is true, it is irrelevant. What the elites are doing to one an other is of no concern to honest ordinary people. What is relevant is that a few days ago a Greek lady of humble origin who married a Greek tycoon and which lady, if I am not mistaken, was an an acquaintance of Diana's bought a US $ 800,000 car for herself. The money of the tycoon have their roots in the money of the US taxpayers given to the Greek elites by the US since 1947. This is what is happening right now in Iraq. The Iraqis, chosen by the son of Barbara to form the future Iraqi elite, are financed even by the coal miners in West Virginia. This has paramount relevance. End of Note.]
- Maxim Zhilin, a tall 23-year-old Russian, left his native Siberia for Greece on a tourist visa last autumn intending to work there as a migrant worker. For a few days he worked as a waiter in a restaurant on the island of Corfu. Then in the first days of October he decided to return to his homeland. He had no money to buy a plane ticket. He went to the local airport hopping to be deported back to Russia as his visa had expired. He was arrested. The same day that Zhilin left his job and went to the airport a local 42-year-old woman was brutally stabbed to death in her car. The police accused Zhilin as the killer. According to the police Zhilin confessed and was imprisoned pending his trial. All the months after his arrest the media painted him as a brutal murderer who confessed that he killed the woman "to feel how it is to kill a human."
One day before New Year's Eve he was being transferred from one prison to another in a police van. At some point of the transfer he managed to escape by killing the two policemen that were guarding him. For almost three days he was hiding in the wilderness adjacent to the point of his escape. He managed to survive wearing only a T-shirt in freezing temperatures. Then, according to the police, in the evening of January 1 he commited suicide using the gun he took from his guards.
There are some questionmarks around Zhilin's suicide. Also, about two days ago doubts surfaced whether Zhilin killed the woman. Thus, the Supreme Court Prosecutor ordered a new investigation about this. It is important to add that now it is revealed that Zhilin never uttered the sentence about killing to get the feeling of it. We are not told who initiated the lie. Finally, it is a fact that Zhilin in his short life before he left for Greece was a nice kid who had no blemish in his behavior.
[Note: A couple of days ago a Greek reporter visited Zhirin's parents in Siberia. After hearig what they had to say and the way they said it, in the news, my personal feeling is that one should be skeptical about Zhilin's case. Also, one should take into account that while in prison Zhilin was brutally beaten not only by his guards but also by his Greek fellow-prisoners and possibly sexually abused.]
Of course, this was not a "typical" New Year Season in Greece. However, all three cases are discussed in this society continuously for the last few days, as they should. In all three cases it is the acts of the human elites that caused the suffering: In Crete, the US-created virulent nationalism; with the Pakistanis, the British (and US) torturers; in Zhilin's case, it is possible that besides the poverty in Siberia the Greek authorities are to blame. But, what are we to do to eliminate all this evil?
The answer can not be found in the small white Babtist church in Sago, West Virginia. The answer is to be found in the Resistance to the barbarous elites, especially those in the US, and in the Solidarity among the ordinary people. Daniele Benett can understand the agony and can feel the solidarity with the hundreds of thousands of survivors in Iraq who lost their kin because the son of Barbara is trying to secure the Iraqi oil for his friends.

Schools should not be like prisons
Dear Editor
I recently saw several news stories in which students were turned away from school because of dress code violations. While I acknowledge the necessity of having a dress code, all rules should be constantly evaluated to ensure that they are achieving their desired result.
I believe that the current rules governing students are excessive and undermine the education of student, so they might just produce more indiscipline. Clearly, the primary role of a school is to educate its students, so it should raise concern that most rules seek to influence factors that have no material impact on learning. As a student who was turned away from school put it, "Tight pants nuh have nutten fi do wid education." Given that this student's peers in Australia, Europe and North America are on average achieving higher test scores, with a less restrictive dress code, I must agree.
In fact the many rules actually diminish the level of education in schools. First, with so many rules in place, teachers must waste time investigating and enforcing breaches. The time spent checking whether a student is wearing the correct colour socks could be spent teaching! Furthermore, all the rules teachers are asked to enforce create unnecessary animosity between teachers and students.
Some have argued that these rules help the education process by limiting distractions, but this fails to take into account the distraction caused when teachers stop teaching to enforce rules. Furthermore, given the success rate of students in other countries while being plagued with these so-called distractions, one has to question the legitimacy of the "distractions prevention" argument.
The hard-line, "do as I say approach" in schools has not worked. Massive gates that are often closed, high fences covered with barbed wire, and extensive rules make schools feel like prisons. This high-handed approach does not serve to foster the type of maturity we wish to see our children develop. We should not be surprised that some students end up in prison - after all, we treat them like prisoners.
I had a maths teacher who allowed me to listen to music while doing my work in class. While I am not advocating that MP3 players be allowed in schools, it is this type of autonomy and flexibility that teaches teens to be mature. Telling someone how to dress, where to eat, etc, fosters rebellion - not the mature young adults our schools should be producing.
As Einstein said, repeating the same action and expecting a different result is insane. We are not satisfied with the education or discipline our schools are providing, therefore it is insane to continue on the current path of excessive rules and authoritarianism where teachers are more enforcers than educators.

As part of Cricket Wireless and Muve Music's inaugural Muve First Artist Challenge, seven hip hop and R&B artists will compete for your votes for six weeks until one artist is crowned the January 2013 Muve First Artist. To help you decide which artist to vote for, we've provided profiles on each of the artists so you can learn a little more about where their music is coming from.
Meet Marcus Canty, one of our seven artists.
While working on a project that he hoped would garner a major label deal, Marcus Canty heard about "X Factor" auditions and saw his chance at stardom. Once he learned that music executive Antonio "L.A." Reid would be serving as a judge and coach on the talent show, it seemed all too perfect.
"On the show, L.A. challenged my mind and my voice; he was a father figure and a friend. During Rock 'N' Roll week on 'X Factor' I wanted to do Tina Turner's 'Proud Mary.' When I played it for him, he agreed that it was huge record," Marcus recalls. "But then he showed me Janis Joplin's 'Take Another Little Piece of My Heart' and it opened my eyes to versatility."
Now as he preps his album, Marcus hopes to collaborate with Timbaland, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, and even Quincy Jones.
"I want a classic album and it's tough to get that out the gate, but I think it's possible," Marcus says with confidence. "It's about telling stories and there aren't many in music today. But I want to tell stories that connect with people in my own way."
You can download his track "In & Out" featuring Wale on Muve Music today.
If you like what you've read, be sure to visit the Muve First Artist Challenge tab and vote for Marcus Canty.

Letters to the Editor
Date: August 8, 2012
by: Observer Staff
Editor's note: This letter was written in response to the East County Observer's endorsement of Manatee County School Board District 2 candidate Dave Miner.
+ School Board candidate refutes endorsement
Dear Editor:
I believe that to change our school system, we need new individuals to step forward and lead. I believe that it is incumbent upon each generation to take ownership of, and work to improve their communities. I am running for School Board because I believe I am the best candidate to make changes and improve our students' education.
I am a teacher, having worked in a portable at Lakewood Ranch High School since 2003. I worked in the Florida Legislature and U.S. Congress prior to returning home to teach. I am the only candidate with a policy background and the practical experience of working every day on the front lines of our education system.
We need a new direction in our Manatee County schools. We have to hold accountable our administration, as well as our teachers. We must transform the way we deliver education, starting with kindergarten through third grade. We have to free our students and teachers from a "one size fits all" curriculum.
We must create a budget system that funds our students and classrooms first and our bureaucrats and consultants last.
And lastly, we must embrace technology in our classrooms in a way to expand learning, not simply ban it.
I am running because I believe we must do better for our children. If elected I would be the only person on the School Board with modern classroom experience. It is time to bring the classroom to the boardroom. I am Robert Moates and I am asking for your vote on Aug. 14.
— Robert Moates, Candidate for Manatee County School Board

The three-story brick home in north Jasper was built in the 1920s by William B. Bankhead, a U.S. Representative who became Speaker of the House in 1936.
Bankhead's daughter, actress Tallulah Bankhead, was married there in 1937. William Bankhead was claiming it as his residence at his death in 1945. His wife continued living in it for several years afterward.
The house was purchased by the Walker Area Community Foundation in 2008 and restored using the original drawings.
WACF president Paul Kennedy said extensive work was required to return the home, which had been closed for three years, to the craftsmanship and character that it had during the Bankhead era.
"It had aged over the years. Structurally, the original part of the house was in excellent condition but the addition -- the great room that we call the gallery -- was in bad shape," Kennedy said.
The doors were opened to the public earlier this year. Although few events have been held yet, the house will host a traveling exhibit of the Smithsonian Institution next summer.
Only three of the home's rooms are currently being used by the WACF and AmeriCorps VISTA program for office space.
The rest have been set aside for art and history exhibits and community gatherings with a civic purpose.
Two noteworthy areas associated with the house are the attic, which Bankhead finished himself, and the natural amphitheater, where Bankhead went for quiet time.
The Alabama marble in the downstairs fireplace is also of interest. It was repaired during the renovation.
Most of the artifacts in the home belonged to the Bankheads, including a desk from the Alabama Legislature that belonged to Bankhead's father, John Hollis; and a table that was shipped to William Bankhead in the early 1900s.
Kennedy said a permanent exhibit made up of pieces from three Tallulah collections is also in the works.
In the future, the Heritage Center will also include collections that tell the story of other historically prominent Walker County residents.
There is also a plan for further landscaping improvements, including the addition of a water fountain.
Kennedy said revitalizing the Bankhead House has not affected the WACF's endowment.
"It's being done with exceptional gifts from exceptional citizens of the community. This in no way is going to impede our ability to make grants from the endowment," Kennedy said.
The Bankhead House and Heritage Center will be included in this year's Pilot Club Tour of Homes.
Tickets are $10 in advance or $12 at the door. They are available at Pinnacle and First National banks as well as from any Pilot Club member.
Proceeds will be used to help with construction of a Miracle Field.
Kennedy said choosing to participate in the annual event was an easy decision.
"Pilot Club is a very strong, enduring women's organization. This is their fundraiser, and we want the public to begin to understand why this Heritage Center is here and what it can do," Kennedy said.

Bryan to break ground for residence hall
November 22, 2005
Bryan College will break ground on a new residence hall in ceremonies during the chapel hour on Wednesday, Nov. 30.
The college recently announced plans to build a 120-bed residence hall to accommodate growing enrollment. Traditional enrollment grew by 62 students or 12 percent this fall, and total enrollment, including the Aspire degree completion program, was up 17 percent to 775. Bryan President Dr. Stephen D. Livesay said only about a dozen beds are available on campus, and admissions personnel are projecting another strong enrollment for next fall.
The groundbreaking ceremony, which will include comments from students, college and area officials and music by the Bryan Chorale, is scheduled for 10 a.m. at the site of the new residence hall between Arnold Hall and Summers Gymnasium.
In case of rain, the program will be held in the gym.
Vice President of Operations Tim Hostetler said the four-story building will feature two wings on each of four floors, with 12-20 students per wing, to enhance the community atmosphere of the college.
Contractor for the $4 million project is Dillard Construction, Inc., of Dayton, and the architect is The Troyer Group of Mishawaka, Ind.

By C.V. Moore
Register-Herald Reporter
The first day of early voting in West Virginia had voters lining up outside the Memorial Building in downtown Fayetteville. From energy to education, 356 total Fayette County voters on Wednesday found a range of issues hanging over their heads in the voting booth.
"I believe in voting," says Debra Elmore, the first in the county to cast her ballot in the general election. "That's why I was first in line. I want my vote to count and I want my voice heard."
Three early voting locations — one in each of the county's districts — offer Fayette voters plenty of options this year.
Hours at Fayetteville's Memorial Building, Montgomery City Hall, and the Danese Community Building run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday remaining before election day.
Elmore, who works for the American Federation of Teachers, says education played a big role in her choice for president.
"Especially after that last debate, when Gov. Romney made the comment about teachers' unions. You can't blame everything on teachers' unions. That sealed the deal," she said.
Poverty and health care, especially for women, were other important issues for her.
Johnny Morris, another early voter, says his choice for Gov. Mitt Romney for president was informed by a focus on "God, country, and family."
As someone who has served in the military, Judy Weaver made her decision to vote for Romney based on national security and the economy.
"I was concerned with the way I see the Middle East going...The economy is not improving and the current president is not stepping up to take ownership," she said.
Shirley Hill was more forgiving of Obama during his first term.
"When Obama got in it, he had Republicans in there that screwed up everything," she says. "I don't think it's his fault. Everyone would fight him on everything. I think the man done the best he can."
"He come into a big old mess," agreed Sonia Allen of Scarbro. "It takes more than four years. He's been doing what he set out to do but it's a hard road to work. Rome wasn't built in a day. I say the man's trying hard."
A desire for everyone in the country to have medical coverage also makes her an Obama supporter.
"The rich, they just don't care — if you're sick then you're sick," she said. "They don't want to give up a penny for nothing, no matter if you're hungry, homeless, or sick."
Romney's disparaging remarks about the 47 percent of Americans who don't pay federal income taxes also rubbed her the wrong way.
"He more or less wrote people off as a bunch of white trash," she says.
With some West Virginia politicians on both sides of the aisle accusing the Obama administration of waging a "war on coal," energy also weighed on voters' minds.
"The coal miners don't like Obama," says Roger Hill.
"But the coal mining business was going downhill before he got in. It's the market and that's not his fault," says Shirley Hill, his wife.
Morris believes Romney will support efforts in many energy sectors.
"I'm not against alternative means," he says. "I think we should have hydro every 50 feet on the New and Gauley rivers so we could replace carbon energy. But coal is here, cheap, and free."
"'War' is a tough word," says Weaver, a Romney supporter, "but I do believe he is not for coal production. He is not doing everything in his power to stop it, but he's not encouraging it."
The county ticket this fall includes seven uncontested elections and one competitive race for magistrate.
An overwhelmingly Democratic county by registration, Fayette's primaries are more often the stage for competitive races among local candidates.
According to Fayette County Clerk Kelvin Holliday, of the 356 total voters included 240 Democrats; 78 Republicans; 35 with no party; and 3 independents.

Hey, Wilderness.
The Wild have an off-day before hosting the Chicago Blackhawks tomorrow, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to read about today.
The theme of the day (much like yesterday) is Josh Harding, who has been a big part of the Wild's mini-turnaround the last couple of days, and really, the biggest reason the Wild have done as well as they have thus far. He's the best story in hockey this year, no question about it.

Fundraising planned for new Laboratory Museum furnace
SARANAC LAKE — Historic Saranac Lake has started a public campaign to raise funds to replace the failing furnace at the Saranac Laboratory Museum.
The campaign seeks to raise at least $13,000 for the new furnace, which must be installed this fall.
Executive Director Amy Catania said the boiler dates from 1950 and is threatening to break down completely. Three times last winter, the heating system turned off unexpectedly, putting the building at risk. The old boiler inefficiently burned 2,250 gallons of oil, resulting in bills totaling $9,000. A new system is expected to use about one-third less fuel.
Several leading gifts have already totaled up to about $5,000.
"Now we are taking the campaign to the streets," Board President Priscilla Goss said in a news release.
"We are counting on donations of any size from individuals in the community who care about our history and the work of Historic Saranac Lake," Goss said.
Anyone who donates will get a window decal, and Historic Sarana Lake T-shirts and license-plate frames will be for sale. Local businesses that are supporting the project will be recognized at the tables.
The total cost of the project is $26,000. Historic Saranac Lake has applied for a matching grant from the New York State Council on the Arts but needs to raise at least $13,000.
Summer travel writing contest deadline nears
WESTPORT — Summer is prime time for exploring New York's Champlain Valley.
"There are few places with historic hamlets settled so sweetly into a rich landscape of forests, farms, and hills with views of a beautiful lake and mountains," Chris Maron, executive director of Champlain Area Trails (CATS), said in a news release.
Writing about your summer adventures could earn you $500.
"Now in its third cycle, the CATS Travel Writing Contest aims to spread the word about all the Champlain Valley has to offer and promote tourism to the area," said Gretel Schueller, contest coordinator.
The winner, selected by a guest judge, will receive a $500 first prize. There's also a chance for the public to pick their favorite story during our online voting in October. The People's Choice — the story with the most online votes — wins $250.
Winners will also have their entries published online in the CATS destination guide, "Tales from the Trails."
The guest judge is Diane Chase, author of the Adirondack Family Activities guidebook series, including "Champlain Valley: Plattsburgh to Ticonderoga. Your Four-Season Guide to Over 300 Activities with GPS Coordinates."
The deadline for entries is Sept. 30.

Student strikes gold in international choir competition
CINCINNATI — Morgan Dubrey of Plattsburgh was a member of the Mansfield University Concert Choir that won three gold medals at the World Choir Games in Cincinnati this summer.
The World Choir Games is the largest international choral competition in the world.
The Mansfield University Chorus of Mansfield, Pa., was awarded a gold medal in the Folklore category, placing fourth among 25 choirs and ranking just behind the top choir from Venezuela and two choirs from China. It also ranked second among 12 choirs from around the world in the Mixed Youth Choir category, just behind the champion from China. In the Musica Sacra division, the Concert Choir was among only 12 of 28 choirs competing in this category to achieve the ranking of gold.
"The competition was particularly intense this year with the judges awarding more bronze and silver rankings than ever before," Mansfield University Director Peggy Dettwiler said in a news release. "In order to receive a gold medal in a championship round, a choir must achieve at least 80 of 100 points accumulated from seven judges on an international jury."
Quilt at Kent-Delord is tribute to American flag
PLATTSBURGH — The Kent-Delord House Museum has been showing its patriotic colors.
Inside its walls hangs a donated symbolic quilt as part of the Daughter of the American Revolution Saranac Chapter's fundraiser. The quilt was created by Trudy Burger, a recent member of the DAR, and is titled "Waving American Flag."
It is the raffle prize for the DAR's annual fundraising event. All proceeds will go toward preserving the historic Kate Cleveland Smith House, home of the DAR Saranac Chapter, and toward scholarships for continuing education. Tickets are available at the museum for $5 each or three for $10. The drawing will follow the Battle of Valcour Memorial Service on Oct. 11.

Harold K. Hochschild Award presented to Ernsts
BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — The Board of Trustees of the Adirondack Museum formally presented the Harold K. Hochschild Award to John and Margot Ernst at the annual Gala Benefit.
The award is dedicated to the memory of the museum's founder, whose passion for the Adirondacks, its people and environment inspired the creation of the Adirondack Museum.
Since 1990, the museum has presented the award to a range of intellectual and community leaders throughout the Adirondack Park, highlighting their contributions to the region's culture and quality of life.
"On behalf of the Adirondack Museum, I would like to congratulate John and Margot Ernst on receiving this prestigious honor for their commitment and service to the Adirondack region," David M. Kahn, executive director of the Adirondack Museum, said in a news release.
The Ernsts split their time between New York City and Elk Lake Lodge, a family-owned resort near North Hudson. They have been involved in public service through their work with non-profit organizations in New York state and the North Country.

A paw recently was cut off of one of the taxidermied bears outside West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey's office, his office confirmed Aug. 12.
Officials in Morrisey's office noticed Aug. 5 that the bear's paw was missing. Some even suspected that whoever cut off the paw had worked on it for a long time; however, nothing has yet been confirmed.
Morrisey took to Twitter, calling the vandalism a "senseless act."
"State bear's paw cut off outside my office in the capitol. What do we say to the kids seeking a photo with our beloved bear? Brazen act," Morrisey posted to his Twitter account.
There are no surveillance cameras in the area where the vandalism took place.
Taxidermied bears have been a staple in the Capitol, adorning previous Secretary of State Ken Hechler's office and former Attorney General Darrell McGraw's office.
When Morrisey took office, officials found the taxidermied bear in storage and decided to place it in front of his office.
Officials said they will contact the West Virginia Bear Hunters Association to see what can be done to fix the bear's paw.
West Virginia Capitol police are investigating.

Auburn taxpayers have taken the bull by the horns and brought the school officials back down to Earth. The proposed School Department budget was up on cloud nine.
I graduated from Edward Little High School in 1979, one of 476 seniors. Now there are 190 seniors, yet school officials claim there is no room. Perhaps that is because there are so many School Department employees. According to figures from past Sun Journal articles, I calculate the ratio at about seven students per employee. That is outrageous.
School officials press for a new high school, maybe so their cloud-nine heads can get through the doorways. Or maybe they think that if a new school is built, more students will come?
Where do I sign up to recall School Committee members?
Talk about spending money, people should take a look at the new school on Park Avenue, with its beautiful sidewalks and lights, but take notice of the "For Sale" signs on both ends of the street.
If Auburn's tax rate doesn't stay down, businesses and homeowners will flee. The 2010 Census reported that Auburn lost residents.
Also, there is no crime to speak of in Auburn. Let the Sheriff's Department handle things. They do a great job in surrounding towns.
And the Fire Department needs to scale back. New buildings have sprinkler systems. How about using volunteers?
I say, cut, cut, cut. The whole town needs to be pulled back. No kids, no crime, no fires.
Lewiston-Auburn doesn't need to combine. Auburn could cut its budget in half.
Jeffrey Keenan, Auburn

FORT HOOD – For the first time, relatives of the 13 people killed in the Fort Hood shooting rampage confronted the man accused of the mass murder, Maj. Nidal Hasan, in an emotional day of testimony.
Shot four times in the 2009 shooting, Staff Sgt. Patrick Zeigler was the first to testify. He lost 20 percent of his brain from one gunshot wound.
"I was expected to either die or remain in a vegetative state the rest of my life," Zeigler testified. "I was in the hospital inpatient for 11 months."
"I'll never be able to use my left hand again like I did," he continued. "My left foot is still paralyzed. No peripheral vision and therefore I'll never be able to drive again. I'm hopeful I'll continue to recover some movement. Eventually, I'll succumb to my wounds. I won't be able to function."
Zeigler then revealed the mental cost of his four gunshot wounds and countless surgeries.
"I've battled with severe depression," he said. "I've also become very angry and irritable. It's affected all of my relationships. I'm a lot angrier and a lot darker than I used to be."
He added his cognitive level is about the same as a tenth or eleventh grader.
Zeigler said his injuries left him unable to pick up his 10-month-old son from the floor or "play with him as a normal father would."
"My military career is effectively over," Zeigler testified. "I'll be discharged in October of this year. My wife had plans for her education and career and they've all been ruined because of 5 November."
Angela G. Rivera, widow of Maj. Eduardo Caraveo, remembered learning about the shooting rampage from a friend's phone call.
"My heart sank," Rivera said. "She said, 'There's a lot of people who are dead. There's a lot of people who are wounded.'"
She said she immediately tried to call her husband, who had just arrived at Fort Hood the night before.
"I called him and there was no answer," she said. "I got his voicemail. At that minute, I knew something was wrong."
Rivera said she was not notified of her husband's death until the following day.
"At 5:25 in the morning, I hear the doorbell and I knew," she said crying. "I went downstairs and I looked through the glass and I see the two guys standing in uniform and I opened the door. They asked me if I was Angela Rivera and they asked to come in and I said 'yes.' As they stood in the living room I kept saying 'I knew he was dead; I knew he was dead; I just knew he was dead because he did not call me back.'"
Rivera testified the family sees a therapist and continues to struggle with the loss.
"I had just lost my husband and my daughter said she did not want to live anymore," Rivera said. "I said 'Please, don't let anything happen to my daughter.'"
Rivera also recounted something her 11-year-old daughter told her.
"I just hope the guy who did this just knows the pain he has caused to all these families," Rivera said.
Juan Velez, father of Pfc. Francheska Velez, said he was on his way to his in-laws home when his son called to say an Army team was at their home.
"On my way home I kept praying to the Lord that if it was something serious maybe she was only wounded," Mr. Velez testified through an interpreter. "But when the notification team told me she had been one of the victims that for me was the end. It hurt me down to the bottom of my soul."
He said his family still has not overcome her loss. A month earlier, Francheska announced she was pregnant with her first child.
"That man did not just kill 13," Velez explained. "He killed 15. He killed my grandson and he killed me. Slowly."
Gale Hunt, mother of Spc. Jason D. Hunt said she immediately started calling her son's cell phone when he daughter alerted her of the shooting.
"At first I thought Fort Hood is a big place, he is just busy and he's not calling," Mrs. Hunt explained. "He had been texting his wife saying he's in a medical bldg and getting shots. At that point, I was very worried."
"I got a hold of someone who sounded very young," she continued. "I could tell by his voice that he was probably dead because he was saying 'Um, um, um, you need to talk to somebody else. You need to talk to somebody else.'"
A few hours later, just before midnight, Mrs. Hunt said her doorbell rang.
"Two uniformed men [were there] I kind of turned my back on them but they let themselves in," she recalled as her voice cracked. "I called my daughter. I don't think she understood me but I said 'There are two men here and they're going to talk to me now.' I laid the cell phone on the table and I told them go ahead. I could hear my daughter screaming on the phone. She said 'Mom! Mom! I'm coming! I'm coming!"
"I just prayed for four hours – then I cleaned house for two weeks," Mrs. Hunt testified. "Now I'm just dealing with it. I went to see his dad on the following Memorial Day. He just stands over his grave and says 'I just miss the guy.'"
Court ended early Monday afternoon so the judge could sort out some logistical issues for Maj. hasan, a Fort Hood spokesman said.
U.S. Army prosecutors called eleven witnesses Monday and plan to have another seven testify tomorrow for the second day of the sentencing phase of Hasan's court martial.
Last Friday, a panel of 13 Army officers found Hasan guilty in an unanimous vote on 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder in the 2009 massacre at the Soldier Readiness Processing center.
Before sentencing began, the judge, Col. Tara Osborn, urged Hasan to use an attorney during this phase of trial.
JUDGE: "You understand you're staking your life on the decisions you make?"
HASAN: "I do"
JUDGE: "I think it's unwise for you to represent yourself, but that is your choice."
HASAN: "It is."
Relatives of the 13 killed in the shooting testified. Among them, Jolene Cahill, whose husband Michael was the only civilian Hasan murdered. Witnesses testified that Cahill, a retired chief warrant officer who was working as a physician's assistant, tried unsuccessfully to stop the mass shooting by charging Hasan with a chair as he changed magazines.
Mrs. Cahill has attended most of Hasan's legal hearings in the last few years.
Prosecutors are also expected to call relatives of Pfc. Francheska Velez to testify. Multiple witnesses said Velez, who was pregnant, pleaded with Hasan not to kill her saying "My baby! My baby!" before he pulled the trigger.
It's uncertain whether Hasan will make a presentation during sentencing.
Regardless, he will get an automatic appeal to the Army Court of Criminal Appeals.
"If Hasan gets the death penalty, appeal is automatic to both the Army Court of Criminal Appeals and, if the Army appellate court upholds the death sentence, to the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces," said Richard Rosen, Law Professor, Texas Tech. "Hasan cannot waive an appeal if the court-martial imposes the death penalty."
Hasan will eventually serve his sentence at the United States Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.
"Depending upon his physical condition, he could also be confined at a federal prison with adequate medical facilities, such as the U.S. Medical Center for Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Mo.," Rosen added.
It's been more than a half century since the Army executed anyone. Pvt. John Bennett was hanged in 1961 for the rape and murder of an Austrian girl.
