SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Proposed municipal code amendments that would clarify rules for the 78 food truck operators in the city of San Diego were forwarded out of committee Wednesday to the full City Council, but without a recommendation for passage.
Food truck vendors have been frustrated with code provisions that make it difficult to operate on public streets and illegal to conduct business on private property except in downtown -- and that's only if the property-owner obtains a conditional use permit. Such trucks have exploded in popularity due to improved menu quality and options.
A staff report to the council's Smart Growth and Land Use Committee said the city's limitations on sales in the public right-of-way "are not consistent with the current desired mobile food vending business model."
The other problem has been how to resolve concerns by restaurant owners that nearby mobile purveyors of meals are cutting into business.
"It's a tough one for me. Being a small business owner, I can see some of the merits on both sides," Councilman Scott Sherman said. "It's one of those tough decisions we have to make here."
Committee Chairwoman Lorie Zapf said there are a lot of good places for food trucks to conduct business, but brick-and-mortar restaurants have made huge investments and have to support employees.
"We're talking about people's lives and livelihoods," Zapf said.
The committee members voted unanimously to have staff and the City Attorney's Office fine-tune the proposals and bring them back to the full City Council at a later time.
The proposal seeks to create an entirely new land use category for food trucks that clarifies where they're allowed to operate and which land use regulations apply, creating what city staff calls a "reasonable" approval process.
The trucks would be allowed to operate without a permit in industrial, commercial and high-density residential areas. The proposal would generally prohibit them from low-density residential neighborhoods, the restaurant-heavy Gaslamp Quarter and Little Italy, streets near the beach and roadways close to the city's three major universities.
They would generally be allowed on private property with a permit that would cost up to $935, which the staff report says is consistent with other cities.
Among other proposed regulations:
-- the trucks would not be allowed to sell alcoholic beverages, general merchandise or commercial services;
-- no equipment aside from refuse containers would be allowed outside the trucks;
-- operators would be required to collect litter within a 25-foot radius of the truck before changing locations;
-- no amplified music would be allowed; and
-- pedestrian and vehicular traffic should not be impaired.
Food trucks would not be allowed to operate between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Sunday through Thursday, or 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. Friday and Saturday, within 500 feet of a residence. The regulations also set out how large the vehicles can be and how far away they need to park from intersections and schools.
Amanda Lee, of the city's Development Services Department, said most of the prohibitions in the plan have exceptions. Also, an earlier proposal to keep food trucks a certain distance from restaurants was not included because it would not be consistent with state law.
Regulations would go into effect in most areas of the city after being adopted. However, the rules would not apply near the shoreline until the California Coastal Commission granted its approval, or near local airports until the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority weighed in.

Chris Matthews Mocks 'Reign of Terror' Republicans Who 'Tear Down Statues'
According to Chris Matthews on Monday, the Republican presidential candidates are engaging in a "reign of terror" and "don't like democratic government." In a possible (though confusing) allusion to the toppling of Saddam Hussein, the Hardball anchor smeared, "These are guys who tear down statues. They don't put them up." [See video below. See MP3 audio here.]
Matthews has a history of comparing Republicans to violent extremists in the Middle East. On July 5, 2011, the MSNBC host foamed, "Well, the GOP has become the Wahhabis of American government, willing to risk bringing down the whole country in the service of their anti-tax ideology."
On Monday, after liberal guest David Corn insisted that GOP candidates Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain weren't interested in government, Matthews slimed, "I think this is the reign of terror...They don't like democratic government. They don't like having a leader...These are guys who tear down statues."
The Reign of Terror refers to the French Revolution. So far, Republicans have not beheaded anyone.
Earlier in the segment, Matthews insisted that a joke Donald Trump made about Jon Huntsman is the equivalent of "bringing the values of the Middle East to American politics."
(Trump insisted that Huntsman, who has been dismissing him, actually wanted to meet with the reality personality. He added, "I'm sure he'll tell the truth about that, because he's a Mormon.")
A transcript of the December 5 exchange can be found below:
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Let's take a look at this. Republican candidates Jon Huntsman and Ron Paul have declined to participate in this joke. They're not going to do the Trump event. And Trump took the opportunity to take a swipe at, of course, at Huntsman and his religion. This is what he does. He goes after tribe. He accused Obama- Barack Obama of being from some other country. He accused of Huntsman of being from some religion that he likes to make fun of. Here he is. This is tribalism at its worst. This is bringing the values of the Middle East to American politics. Let's watch.
DONALD TRUMP: I think most of the important candidates will come. Huntsman has one percent of the vote. I don't think he's coming. And, by the way, Mr. Huntsman called my office a number of times trying to set up a meeting. I didn't have a meeting with him. And then he went on a debate and said that "I didn't meet with Mr. Trump like anybody else in the room." So, you know, I'm sure he'll tell the truth about that, because he's a Mormon.
MATTHEWS: Well, after that attack on the guy's religion, a spokesman for Huntsman responded,, "you'll be surprised Trump who's not telling the truth here. We never requested a meeting. We are focused on issues that matter, not presidential apprenticeships." I don't know where we're at in this thing, but I guess it is the Republican campaign. I guess Newt is surging. And Howard, we have to cover it. But this has become a desperate trail route to the White House that you have to go through Trump tower. I used it up front. It is a- it's a tower heist. It's a heist of the Republican nominating process.
DAVID CORN: If you don't care about government, why not Michele Bachmann or Herman Cain? Why not? Why not Donald Trump?
MATTHEWS: I think this is the reign of terror. Anyway, I don't think they like government or leadership or politics– really politics. They don't like democratic government. They don't like having a leader. They like to bring down- these are guys who tear down statues. They don't put them up.

Six years ago, my then fiancé (now my wife) and I decided to take a road trip to Vermont. It was our first time to New England and we were looking forward to seeing the beautiful fall colors. We drove from New Jersey, up through the Catskills and Adirondacks of New York, and finally into Vermont. We stayed off the interstates and drove along Vermont's local highways through many charming and quaint small towns.
We stayed at Smugglers' Notch Resort, located on Vermont's scenic highway VT 108 just north of Stowe, a popular ski town. As we drove into Stowe, we were enchanted by the beauty and serenity of the covered bridges, mountain views, and the small-town charm. As a foodie, I really appreciated the wide array of quality restaurants in Stowe. I also appreciated the farm-to-table food culture of Vermont's residents – sourcing locally grown, sustainable, and organic produce and meats from local farms and purveyors.
My wife and I fell in love with Vermont on our first visit and we've been going back ever since. A few weeks ago, we celebrated our two year wedding anniversary, also our 4th fall-foliage trip to Vermont. In a serendipitous moment, my wife and I bumped into fellow RCI subscribing members Larry and Mary Whitney. They are happy RCI members since the mid-90s. They saw my picture in the RCI Directory of Affiliated Resorts, along with my recommendation to visit Vermont during fall – and they recognized me! I was humbled that the Whitneys decided to plan their vacation based on my recommendation. It was a truly serendipitous encounter.

If there is one item that defines the Redskins early morning walk-through practices, it is what they are wearing.
It's a floppy, white, wide brimmed hat officially called a bucket hat, and here at Redskins camp, it's on every fan's bucket list.
Redskins receiver Josh Morgan, told us he wasn't sure where the trend came from, other than the guys in the secondary. He said he thought it might be a "DC thing," but one thing is certain, he was wearing one.
By Thursday morning, the seventh day of the camp, the $30 hats had sold out.
Diamone Vincent, a cashier at the Redskins store, told me that, customers, "are really mad."
William Giovannetti a Redskins fan was one of those who was disappointed. "We came in here looking for the bucket hats, we found out the whole team was wearing them."
P.J. Edmonds, his friend echoed those thoughts. "I hope they get some back, maybe by Saturday they'll get some in."
And then, while we were standing there, 72 new bucket hats arrived. They started selling right away.
Wesley Spady bought one immediately.
Carlin: Did you ever thing the bucket hat would be the thing?
Spady: No I wouldn't at all. I would think more like the RGIII Stuff would be selling out more than these bucket hats.
No one really knows where the bucket hat phenomenon started. The Redskins store manager says they've been reasonably popular, but sales took off when players started practicing in them. Throughout the week more and more of the players were showing up in them at morning walk-throughs, which don't include helmets and pads.
But not all the fans wear them for the same reason. I asked Betty Hanger, a die hard, gray-haired fan who would look more at home in her garden than at 'Skins camp.
Carlin: So it wasn't your goal to look like DeAngelo Hall?
Betty Hanger: No. (laughs) Not today anyway. (laughs again)
The fan turnout on Friday morning was significantly larger than earlier in the week. Probably because people can justify taking off on Fridays. The Redskins store was packed shoulder to shoulder and as you can imagine the second round of bucket hats sold out "in the first five minutes" an employee told me.
Saturday is fan appreciation day. Crowds are going to be larger than ever. Either the 'Skins will come up with more bucket hats, or there will be thousands of disappointed fans.

I'm using client certificates in PKCS#12 on a Nokia E70 (Symbian S60 3rd Edition) to authenticate against a mail server via SSL. This works perfectly.
But it's really annoying, because at every connection the phone asks me about me PIN to the phone key store for the certificates. I *HAVE* to enter a 6-digit-pin (123456 ;-).
When going to Settings -> Security -> Module PIN there is an option "Module PIN Request" which can be turned off:
«Module PIN request - Set the phone to request the module Personal Identification Number (PIN) when using services provided by the security module. Enter the code, and select "On". To disable the module PIN request, select "Off".» ([url]http://europe.nokia.com/faqsearch/ShowQA?id=46685&prod=1068&ch=-10&si=70%C2%AE=4&adv=false&cat=6&qt=[/url])
But I CAN'T change this option at all.
Seems to be a bug or what? Asking everything about the PIN makes the whole system unusable!
Ideas welcome!

It was horrible, it was almost unbelievable… And it was certainly the stuff of nightmares.
On Thursday of last week, a 37-year-old man called Jeff Bush was tucked up in bed, in his home in Seffner, Florida. Suddenly, and without warning, the earth just gave way underneath the bedroom floor. The ground opened up and effectively swallowed Jeff Bush and a large part of his house.
What was left was a gaping hole more than 9 meters across and 15 meters deep. And despite intensive rescue efforts, his body was not recovered . Because of the instability of the site, the decision was taken to demolish the rest of the house, and the site has now become the grave of its owner, Jeff Bush.
As a tragedy, it was both unimaginable and unforeseeable. And it wasn't the stuff of science fiction, but of pure geology. The tragedy gained worldwide media coverage. But the question on our minds all week has been... Could it happen here, in Ireland?
Now, we don't mean to be alarmist, but the answer is.... "Yes, it could!"
To explain exactly how, and under what circumstances, these "sinkholes" can occur, we are joined in our Limerick studio by geologist, Dr Eamon Doyle, who is a geologist at the Burren and Cliffs of Moher Geopark.
Planxty wouldn't be the only people to have been awed and inspired by the stunning landscape of the West Coast of Clare: the Aillwee Caves, the Burren, and of course, The Cliffs of Moher.
Well, if you are one of the thousands and thousands of people who are fascinated by this corner of Ireland, Eamon Doyle is running an introductory course about its unique geology.
- It started last night and will run for 4 more weeks but people can still sign up - It is called "Stone, Water and Ice: Understanding the Burren Landscape". It runs from 7.30 to 9.30pm on Thursdays. - it will feature lectures and outdoor excursions focusing on how the world-famous karst landscape and underground features of the Burren were formed. - Key topics will include the Geology of Ireland; Plate Tectonics, Earthquakes and Volcanic History of the Burren; Evidence of Folding, Burial and Uplift, Rock Types of the Burren; Underground Features; and an outdoor excursion to some of the best known Burren landmarks, including Murroughtoohy, Slieve Elva, Caher Valley, Pollnagollum and Fanore Beach.
Stone, Water and Ice: Understanding the Burren Landscape will be held at the Burren Outdoor Education Centre, Bell Harbour, Co. Clare. For further information visit www.burren.ie, or contact Dr. Eamon Doyle on 087 900-8031.
When you think of discovering new species you might think of the great naturalists and explorers of the 19th Century – but new species of all animals are discovered every year, right up to the present.
Not so frequently, however, in the world of birds – where only a couple of new species might be discovered each year.
So you can imagine the thrill an ornithologist gets when he finds a new bird and realises he has come across a completely distinct new species.
Pincoya Storm Petrel
Our next guest has done exactly that. His name is Peter Harrison, he is the world's foremost expert on seabirds – so it makes it all the more special for Peter is that it is a new species of seabird he has discovered. Peter is on the line from Cape Town, in South Africa, to tell us about the Pincoya Storm Petrel that he discovered off the coast of Chile...
And there's an Irish angle to this story too! Irish birdwatcher Jim Dowdall, along with three friends, first photographed this bird in 2008. They got 14 snaps and wrote a paper for a Dutch Birder journal. Jim joins Olan and Peter to explain more...
We get an extraordinary amount of e-mails sent to the show, particularly for Mooney Goes Wild. And every now and again, an e-mail or phone call or text strikes a nerve, and we decide to investigate further!
This is exactly what happened last week, when an e-mail came in from Dublin listener, Gerry McHugh. Gerry was given a bird feeder as a present a few months ago. Prior to this he had no interest in wildlife or nature. He is now 'bitten by the bug'! But he has gone one step further. He was given a bird camera as a present at Christmas. This is a free standing camera which he has set up in the garden (it is not a nesting camera). With this he can both film and take photos of the birds in the garden and then view the action when he gets home.
Terry went to visit Gerry at his home in Portmarnock...
You are probably aware of the "Green Flag" initiative... Schools up and down the country encourage their pupils, staff, parents and indeed the wider community to be more aware of their environment – recycle rubbish, collect waste water, walk to school instead of using the car. You've probably even seen the flags flying proudly outside a primary or secondary school near you.
In 2010 University College Cork became the first University in the world to receive a green flag. Now the university has received another accolade by coming third in a World Rankings of Universities who've succeeded in making their campus green.
Maggie Creed is a PhD student in UCC, and she's also Society Development Officer of the UCC Environmental Society. She joins Olan from our Cork studios to explain more about their work...
The National University Environmental Forum will take place at UCC on Friday, March 22nd. For more details, visit
Thank you to everybody who submitted an entry to name our young filly at the Irish National Stud. The competition has now closed. We had a phenomenal response, with some really original, witty and creative suggestions! And we'll be revealing the winning name of our young foal next Tuesday, so good luck to all who entered!
Hedgerows and the Law
Hedgerows in Ireland form important features in maintaining wildlife diversity and in establishing wildlife "corridors", particularly for birds. The commonest nesting birds found in hedgerows such as wrens, dunnocks, robin and willow warblers depend entirely on insects during the Summer months. In general untrimmed, thorned hedgerows containing species such as blackthorn, whitethorn and holly are favoured by birds as they provide ample food and also serve as a protection against predators.
Section 40 of the Wildlife Act, 1976, as amended by Section 46 of the 2000 Act, provides protection for hedgerows by providing that it shall be an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy hedgerows on uncultivated land during the nesting season from 1 March to 31 August, subject to certain exceptions. It is important that, where possible, necessary work to hedgerows is carried out outside this period.
It is possible in most cases to schedule and carry out necessary work to hedgerows outside this period. The legislation makes provision for works (other than road or other construction works) to be carried out for reasons of public health and safety under the authority of any Minister or a body established by statute that lead to the destruction of vegetation. There is also a provision to enable the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government to request from the relevant Minister or body details of any such works together with a statement of the public health and safety factors involved.
It shall not be an offence to destroy vegetation in the ordinary course of agriculture or forestry. Also it shall not be illegal to destroy vegetation while preparing or clearing a site for lawful building or construction works.
It is the policy of the Minister to prosecute for offences under section 40 of the Wildlife Acts 1976 and 2000 and successful prosecutions have been taken under this section in recent years. Members of the public are encouraged to contact their local wildlife ranger and report instances where hedgerows are being destroyed during the prohibited period.

Charles records solid finish to win Lynchburg Heptathlon
Related Links
A strong finish helped JU track & field's Charlene Charles hit a personal-best 5,422 points total to win the Lynchburg College Heptathlon Tuesday afternoon.
Charles' point total is a new high by almost a 100 points and puts her tied for 18th nationally. She needs to be ranked in the top 24 through Sunday to qualify for the NCAA Championships.
The junior from France opened the day by winning the long jump (18'11.25") before recording a toss of 94'10" in the javelin. She ended strong by winning the 800-meter with a time of 2:15.41 to hit her points total for the meet.
"Charlene wasn't happy with the way she jumped or threw this morning," JU head coach Ron Grigg said. "She showed a heart of a champion and ran a great 800-meter race to break the 5,400 point barrier. Charlene has worked hard this year to overcome a lot of physical adversity and it will be nice to celebrate this for the next few days."
On Monday, Charles won the 100-meter hurdles (14.10) and high jump (5'7.75"), while posting a personal-best throw of 33'10" (6th) in the shot put to start the meet. She finished fourth in the 200-meter in 24.79.
The Dolphins will complete again Friday in Atlanta with the Georgia Tech Invitational.

Bed MadeEZ® 12 12
Save your manicure and buy this thing! I have a king size memory foam mattress which is not very heavy. However, I bought this, not so much to assist me in lifting the mattress or for ergonomics, but simply to prevent messing up my manicures or breaking my nails while tucking the sheets in. It works beautifully. If you have a traditional king size mattress, I could see that getting two of these would be helpful as the mattress would be much heavier than mine and I think it would work easier with one placed near the top and another one near the bottom to lift the mattress. With a lighter mattress like my memory foam or an air mattress like a Sleep Number, I think one is plenty. June 15, 2014
Bedmade Ez I have used this only a couple times. As I just got and it works on my bed great I have a king and I have small hands just wish it would lift the mattress a little higher ... I would recommend this product .. February 1, 2014
bed made EZ Great concept, except that it doesn't work. It doesn't raise the matress high enough to easiy tuck in the sheets and blankets January 23, 2013

When it comes to making a good war movie, Steven Spielberg has few rivals.
Until very recently, Spielberg focused his considerable talents and resources on World War II. No surprise here, as his dad fought in the war, and he was brought up in the postwar era, having been born about 15 months after World War II ended. Schindler's List, the HBO series hits Band of Brothers and The Pacific and, of course, his poignant D-Day drama Saving Private Ryan are among his most popular war movies. Even his early hit Raiders of the Lost Ark has World War II as its backdrop. He also helped Clint Eastwood produce Letters From Iwo Jima and Flags of Our Fathers.
Spielberg's latest war movie, however, deals with World War I — known popularly as the "Great War." The movie is called War Horse, and it's an inspiring tale of loyalty and devotion between humans and horses; furthermore, it deals with an under-publicized element of World War I: the valuable role that animals played in the war — a topic with a significant Connecticut connection.
The movie is based on a young-adult novel of the same name written in 1982 by the acclaimed British novelist Michael Morpurgo. The inspiration for the work came in part from an elderly cavalry veteran of World War I named Captain Budgett from the Devon village of Iddesleigh — the author's home. In fact, Budgett's granddaughter plays a bit role in one of the indoor scenes in the movie. Morpurgo himself also has a cameo in the movie. Morpurgo's book has recently been adapted to the stage both in England and in the United States, and it was at the theater that Speilberg first encountered the story.
The story follows the life of a beautiful and powerful bay thoroughbred horse named Joey who gets separated from his devoted young master, Albert Narracott, by dire economic circumstances. Albert's dad — a veteran of the Boer War — has had to sell the steed to the British army for service in the Great War. After initially serving with the British cavalry, Joey and a companion horse named Topthorne get captured by the Germans with whom they both serve for a short while. They then come into the possession of a young French girl named Emilie, who is especially devoted to Joey. Emilie sadly loses them back to the Germans, who put Joey and Topthorne to work towing large artillery pieces. In the chaos of trench warfare, Joey breaks free but gets stuck in no-man's land, tangled in barbed wire.
In a scene reminiscent of the famous Christmas truce of 1914, a British and a German soldier work together to free Joey in no-man's land. They succeed. The Brit wins a coin toss and takes ownership. Injured, Joey makes it back to the British lines where he has an improbable reunion with Albert — now a wounded soldier looking for Joey. The encounter saves the wounded horse's life. However, Albert must now compete with Emilie's grandfather to regain possession of Joey at an auction of war horses following the armistice. The final scene dealing with that encounter is poignant.
Novelist Morpurgo has estimated that the number of horses from both sides killed during World War I exceeded 10 million — a figure slightly larger than the usual estimate of soldiers from both sides who died during the conflict. Horses during the Great War served with cavalry units but were mostly used to pull artillery pieces, wagons, and ambulances — very rigorous work and often done under dire conditions, as the movie well demonstrates. War Horse accurately depicts all of these equine functions during the war as well as the heavy toll exacted on both the animals and humans. The sense of waste that is so characteristic of the Great War is palpable.
The extreme rainstorms that characterized the war years made conditions terrible for both man and animals. The prevalence of mud and damp conditions contributed to widespread diseases of the skin, legs, and hooves of horses. Shell holes filled with water often were so deep that both men and horses disappeared in them and drowned, especially at the Battle of Passchendaele, as the following passage from Harold Baynes's definitive study of the topic, Animal Heroes of the
Great War, clearly demonstrates:
But more dangerous even than the shells themselves are the craters now filled with water. They are so numerous that it is almost impossible to avoid them all in the dark, and one misstep by a floundering gun horse or an overladen mule sends him down to his death. Thousands of animals, and many men as well, died in the flooded shell holes at Vimy Ridge alone. These holes are so deep, the sides are so steep, and the mud so soft and yielding, that once an animal gets in he is usually doomed. Of course, his driver always makes desperate and pathetic efforts to save him but usually his last kind act is to put a bullet in his old friend's head to end his misery. It is at such times that rough men show their softer natures. … Often they are choked with emotion, and the tears run down their grimy cheeks — tears which their own physical suffering, no matter how terrible, could never have wrung from them.
Americans concerned about the welfare of horses in World War I appealed to Secretary of War Newton D. Baker for help. On May 22, 1916, Baker asked the American Humane Association to establish a welfare service for horses and mules in the U.S. Army — an organization similar to the American Red Cross. The American Red Star Relief was organized for that purpose. Their most important action was to recruit a veterinary corps for the army that eventually grew to 2,313 members. Headquarters for the American Red Star Relief was at 287 State Street in Albany, NY. They issued many posters asking the public to contribute to the relief fund for American horses and mules. (See photos in gallery above.)
Following the war, the American Red Star Relief commissioned a bronze plaque to be erected in the War Department building in Washington, D.C., to commemorate the indispensable service given by the war horse during the Great War. Unveiled by President Harding's wife on Oct. 15, 1921, the plaque reads as follows:
This tablet commemorates the service and sufferings of the 243,135 mules and horses employed by the American Expeditionary Forces overseas during the Great World War, which terminated November 11, 1918, and which resulted in the death of 68,682 of those animals. What they suffered is beyond words to describe. A fitting tribute to their important services has been given by the commander-in-chief of the American Expeditionary Forces, General John J. Pershing, who has written: "The army horses and mules proved of inestimable value in prosecuting the war to a successful conclusion. They were found in all the theaters of preparation and operation doing their silent but faithful work without the faculty for hoping for any reward or compensation."
(Next week: Part II will examine how pigeons,
garden slugs, and the most famous animal hero of the war — a dog from Connecticut — played key roles in World War I.)

JONESBORO, AR (KAIT) - In a recent survey done by AT&T more adults are texting-while-driving than teenagers.
"Hate to say that it is more teenagers because they grow up in it but there are still a lot of adults out there that text and drive as well," said Jonesboro resident Chris Dyson.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 31 percent of drivers reported texting or emailing while driving.
"Texting has been a form of communication for the last decade or two decades so there are still a lot of adults out there, as myself that do text and drive," said Dyson.
It's seen just about everywhere on the roads and for some locals they say it doesn't matter what age group you fall under.
"When I go home at night and I'm on Parker Road and South Culberhouse, I see a lot of people of all ages who are erratic in their driving. When you get close enough to them you see that they're doing something with their cell phone," said Jonesboro resident Glenn Joner.
When we asked a young driver, the answer was a little different.
"I would say teenagers because we're more we know more about texting and the special apps that are out," said Jonesboro resident Dora Hill.

Videos - Videos By Title – H
Hand on the Pulse
Using interviews, photos and archival footage, Hand on the Pulse is the poignant story of Joan Nestle, political and sexual "bad girl." The documentary traces Joan's life; finding her community in Greenwich Village in the 1950′s, celebrating the body in her writings, public readings in her black slip, having a lesbian archive in her home for 25 years, teaching students "from colonized backgrounds," participating in the Black civil rights movement as a freedom rider, becoming a feminist, and helping to forge a new lesbian and gay consciousness through grass roots organizing. Director: Joyce Warshow, 53 minutes, color, 2002.
The Handmaid's Tale
A 1990 film adaptation of the Margaret Atwood novel of the same name. The the film stars Natasha Richardson (Kate/Offred), Faye Dunaway (Serena Joy), Robert Duvall (The Commander, Fred), Aidan Quinn (Nick), and Elizabeth McGovern (Moira). In the near future, as war rages across the fictional Republic of Gilead and pollution has rendered 99 percent of the female population sterile, Kate (Offred in the novel), sees her husband killed and her daughter kidnapped while trying to escape across the border to Canada. Kate herself is transformed into a Handmaid; a concubine for one of the privileged but barren couples who run the country's religious fundamentalist regime. Although she resists being indoctrinated into the bizarre cult of the Handmaids, which mixes the Old Testament orthodoxy and misogynist cant with 12-step gospel and ritualized violence, Kate soon finds herself in the home of the Commander and his obdurate wife, Serena Joy. Forced to lie between Serena Joy's legs and be sexually penetrated each month by the Commander, Kate longs for her earlier life. She soon learns that since many of the nation's powerful men are as sterile as their wives, she will have to risk the punishment for fornication — death by hanging — in order to be fertilized by another man who can provide her with the pregnancy that has become her sole reason for living. The other man is Nick, the Commander's sympathetic driver. Kate grows attached to him and eventually pregnant with his child. Only the affiliation of her fellow handmaid, Ofglen, seems to offer any chance of giving her unborn child a life of freedom or finding the daughter she already lost
Hard Work to Make Ends Meet: Narratives of Maine's Working Women, 1880-1900
This video is a readers' theater performance that brings the concerns of 19th-century working-class women to life. The performance is based on working women's writings that have been preserved in the Annual Reports of Maine's Bureau of Industrial and Labor Statistics. These narratives are woven together with the 1888 report of Flora Haines, a state-employed factory inspector from Bangor. The performance also includes songs and poetry of this era. Written by Carol Toner (University of Maine). Adapted for the stage and directed by Lauren Bruce (University of Alaska). (30 min. 1997)

Healing Journey: Counseling & Faith Based Services for Crime Victims in Indian Country
Crime victims often turn to spiritual leaders, which include both members of clergy and traditional healers, for support in times of need. In 2004 the Office for Victims of Crime of the Department of Justice, made available grant monies to tribal, non-profit, and faith based organizations for a new program, Counseling & Faith-Based Services for Crime Victims in Indian Country. The purpose of the project was to support faith-based organizations in providing counseling services to victims of crime as well as to support the creation of collaborative models for local victim assistance programs to join with faith-based organizations, spiritual leaders and traditional healers in American Indian and Alaska Native Communities. This film focuses on the best practices of four different faith based collaborative groups: Tundra Women's Coalition in Bethel, Alaska; Greater Minneapolis Council of Churches in Minneapolis, Minnesota; Hearts of Hope Shelter in Turtle Mountain, North Dakota; and the Family Violence Resource Center in Fort Peck, Montana; so that communities in need may use these practices as a model to create their own Faith Based Collaborations. (DVD, 2008)
The Healing Years
A documentary about surviving incest and child sexual abuse. The Healing Years profiles three women through their journey of pain and despair from incest, and their incredible process of recovery as they finally work to end the cycle of incest and child sexual abuse for generations ahead. Featuring former Miss America Marilyn Van Derbur and her nation-wide work as survivor activist; Janice Mirikitani, President of San Francisco's renowned Glide Memorial Church, and Barbara Hamilton, a 79-year old survivor ending three generations of incest in her family, this film is artfully produced. The film illustrates these poignant and powerful stories through interviews, intimate moments with supportive family members, counseling groups, footage of their work as activists and home film footage. (52 min. 1999)
Hearts and Hands
A dramatic presentation of a vital part of American history only now beginning to be told. The video examines the role played by women and their textiles in the nineteenth century's great moments and events: industrialization, the abolition of slavery, women's rights, the Civil War, westward expansion and the pioneer experience, temperance, and suffrage. The film and its companion book explore the astonishing lives and accomplishments of ordinary, often anonymous women as well as chronicling the lives of extraordinary individuals such as Harriet Tubman, Elizabeth Keckley, Frances Willard and Abigail Scott Dunway. "Hearts and Hands" shows how women made quilts whose beauty far outshone their utilitarian functions and how women used the needle to find their own voices. (58 min. 1987)
Heaven Will Protect the Working Girl

Hell to Pay
A moving and politically sophisticated analysis of the international debt situation through the eyes of the women of Bolivia, the poorest country in Latin America. Although most directly affected by government austerity programs, peasant women are assumed not to understand the workings of international capital and foreign policy. Hell to Pay poignantly contradicts such assumptions as teachers, textile workers, and miner's wives speak vividly of the causes of the debt crisis and the burden they are forced to bear. (52 min. 1998)

High Energy: Physicist Melissa Franklin
To Melissa Franklin, building a machine that zaps subatomic particles is as much of a kick as staying up all night listening to Frank Zappa albums. She's an eclectic innovator with a quirky sense of humor and she's also the first woman to become a tenured professor in Harvard University's physics department. In this profile, Franklin brings the cameras inside the multi-million dollar, 140-ton particle detector at Chicago's Fermilab. The detector, which Franklin helped build, accelerates "the smallest things in the world," subatomic particles, and then smashes them together to produce data that physicists can record and study. Out of this research, Franklin and her colleagues have produced evidence of the top quark, the final elusive particle needed to complete the standard model of quantum physics. But a lack of support and frank apathy from the government act as a main obstacle between Melissa and her dream. Part of the PBS Discovering Women Series. (60 min. 1990)
Hildegard von Bingen In Portrait (Ordo Virtutum)
The Ritual of the Virtues is the oldest surviving European music-drama, and the greatest musical work by the visionary mystic, Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179). Hildegard left a treasury of writings and music expressing the passionate intensity of her mystical experiences. Her profound knowledge seemed to come directly from a source of wisdom deeper than learning and tradition, finding its expression through the symbolism of medieval Christendom. She tells us that the spirit and the world are not separate but intertwined, and that spirituality and worldliness do not have to be separate either. Although she lived almost her entire life as a cloistered nun, she was deeply involved with the world on many levels – observing, writing, preaching and organizing a community. Through her many writings, she tells us that help is always at hand, both from the world we know with our senses, and from the world we discover through our hearts and intuition. (2003, 70 minutes)
Hillary's Class
A PBS Frontline special that discusses the journey of Wellesley's graduating class of 1969, the same year Hillary Rodham graduated. Nineteen sixty-nine was also a year of profound social change and upheaval for women. This special shows the opportunities that were available for the women of Wellesley as well as the choices that the women of the class of 1969 made.
(1994, 60 minutes, DVD and VHS format)
Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes
Created by filmmaker and lifelong hip-hop fan Byron Hurt, Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes, is a riveting documentary that tackles issues of masculinity, sexism, violence and homophobia in today's hip-hop culture. Sparking dialogue on hip-hop and its declarations on gender, this film provides thoughtful insight from intelligent, divergent voices including rap artists, industry executives, rap fans, and social critics from inside and outside the hip-hop generation. The film includes interviews with famous rappers, commentary from hip-hop insiders, and interviews with students at Spelman College, a historically black women's school. The film discloses the complex intersection of culture, commerce and gender through on-the-street interviews with aspiring rappers and fans at hip-hop events throughout the country. (2006, 61 minutes, DVD)
The Home and the World
India's greatest filmmaker, Satyajit Ray, directs this deeply moving and provocative film. A beautiful and sheltered Bengali woman's love is tested when her husband Nikhil invites his boyhood friend Sandip to stay at his home while organizing a boycott of British goods. Much to Nikhil's dismay, she not only falls in love with him, but also joins his quest for political justice. Based on the novel by Nobel Prize winner Rabindranath Tagore. Bengali, with English subtitles. (130 min. 1984)

Customer Reviews
Great product!!!! Makes a wonderful difference.
Although I needed to buy these levelers to modify my ladderstand due to premature rust and freeze-splits they are nonetheless a great way to extend the life of my stand.
The lever kits are fine , I have purchased them before.
I have purchased over 12 of these they work great I have them on all my ladder stands and I recommend them to all my friends.
Great addition to the ladder stand helps to keep it even and also makes it so you are not trying to get dirt out of the bottom ladder section since the ladder legs are hollow and with out the leveler when the bottom ladder sinks into the dirt you are trying to dig out the dirt bottom ladder section at the end of the season.

Each year around Memorial Day, Veterans of Foreign Wars members and American Legion Auxiliary volunteers distribute millions of bright red poppies in exchange for contributions to assist disabled and hospitalized veterans. The program provides multiple benefits to the veterans and to the community. The hospitalized veterans who make the flowers are able to earn a small wage, which helps to supplement their incomes and makes them feel more self-sufficient. The physical and mental activity provides many therapeutic benefits as well. Donations are used exclusively to assist and support veterans and their families. The poppy also reminds the community of the past sacrifices and continuing needs of our veterans. The poppy has become a nationally known and recognized symbol of sacrifice and is worn to honor the men and women who served and died for their country in all wars.
The Kimball American Legion Auxiliary will meet at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 8, at the Legion Club. A potluck is planned.

Explore Thalassemias
Family history and ancestry are the two risk factors for thalassemias.
Thalassemias are inherited—that is, the genes for the disorders are passed from parents to their children. If your parents have missing or altered hemoglobin-making genes, you may have thalassemia.
Thalassemias occur most often among people of Italian, Greek, Middle Eastern, Southern Asian, and African descent.
Clinical trials are research studies that explore whether a medical strategy, treatment, or device is safe and effective for humans. To find clinical trials that are currently underway for Thalassemias, visit www.clinicaltrials.gov.
Visit Children and Clinical Studies to hear experts, parents, and children talk about their experiences with clinical research.
