Pat Summitt has retired as head coach of the Tennessee Volunteers women's basketball program. She was diagnosed with early onset dementia in the summer of 2011, but stayed on to lead the Lady Volunteers through the 2011-12 season. She will remain with the program under the title of "head coach emeritus," which will allow her to serve as a mentor to players and pitch in with on-campus recruiting.
The university is expected to release a statement officially announcing Summitt's retirement sometime Wednesday afternoon after she has met with her players in Knoxville. A press conference is expected for Thursday.
Summitt won 1,098 games in her career, more than any coach ever in college basketball, man or woman. She also won eight NCAA titles in her 38-year stint leading Tennessee, including consecutive titles in the 1996, 1997 and 1998 Women's NCAA Tournaments.

Marketing Intern for our client State Street BarbersBookmark This
Christopher Foltz & Company
DescriptionState Street Barbers is a step back in time to a place where men are treated like men and give the great quality, atmosphere and service they deserve. State Street Barbers concept, our field research uncovered how all too often men had been forced to make tradeoffs when it came to their grooming needs – whether it be atmosphere and quality for the convenience of a discount chain ("chop shop") or having to check one's masculinity at the door to get the superior service typically found at a high-end salon. It was for these reasons that we set out to create a barbershop where a man could go to get great service, in a comfortably refined atmosphere.

What a brilliant idea! A new type of wind turbines is in development that uses Maglev technology. Maglev, or magnetic levitation uses powerful magnets to lift and "suspend" objects in mid-air. The technology is used in high-speed "maglev" trains which can reach 900 km/h.
These maglev wind turbines are reported to produce 1 gigawatt of electricity, making them roughly equal to 1000 traditional wind turbines. They are much more efficient than traditional turbines, no doubt a result of minimizing friction with maglev. These turbines can power aprox. 750 thousand home, cost 50% less to operate, and take up about 100 acre, compared to about 64,000 acres for a 1000 turbine wind farm.
With the introduction of maglev wind turbines, we could be seeing wind power become more widespread, and much cheaper to use and operate.
A turbine for every city? Could be the way of the future.

The Daily Scope
Things may seem hopeless now, but this is only a disguise. As events come to a close, know that there is no avoiding your feelings. If you are sad, remember that your heart will heal. Even if you can't understand now, tell yourself that this is for the better. It'll come together in the end.
There is no hiding now, Taurus. You can convince others of whatever you want, but the truth is you are only trying to convince yourself. Those around you may not be as sympathetic as you might have hoped. But listen to their advice and try not to hold on to things. Get to the source of the issue, and avoid a roundabout way of communicating that only frustrates your friends and postpones change.
Everything seems at once like a good and bad idea. Others are awakening the rowdier part of you and this is confusing. You thought you had outgrown your party-hard attitude, and that you had exchanged it for a more sophisticated and mature way of being. Before you act, try and take everything one step at a time. You have the right answer somewhere within you—you just need to think it through.
Things don't look so good, Cancer, and you've landed in a rut. The energies are no doubt frustrating, but you mustn't give up so quickly. Instead of retreating into your shell, maintain composure and control. This is the way to conquer your day.
You had high hopes but now reality makes you worried that your dreams will be crushed. This is a good time to talk it out and make sure you're not stretching yourself too thin. Can your problems be worked out with a more realistic timeline and evenly distributed workload? Connect with others and see if together you can come up with a solution.
Things are looking up as support for your endeavor increases. You are able to keep going with your dream but you must do so with moderation and a sense of reality. Find the middle ground when establishing your goals. Don't set them too high, and at the same time, don't drift off into dreamland. You can surely find a compromise.
Events may not go your way today, Libra—you'll quickly discover you have zero tolerance for this. You pessimism is taking a toll on your demeanor and you can become quite moody. Try not to take this out on others. It's okay to have a bad day, but keep it to yourself instead of dampening the mood of others. As grumpy as you may feel, you don't want to jeopardize valuable relationships.
You may meet an old acquaintance, which will allow you to render fond memories, tapping into nostalgia for youth's freedom and happiness. You could also have a dream that takes place in the past or simply experience déjà vu. It may be a little strange but that's because you're often focused on the present. But today, enjoy the break.
Today, everyone is on the same page. Change can occur quickly. You may have to disregard some aspects of your ego for the sake of the group effort. Although your enthusiasm is appreciated, sometimes the ideas and actions of others mold the picture. Don't fret, even though you're not in command—the lack of conflict and cooperation allows for greater efficiency.
You are the vision of power, Capricorn, as others admire your use of control. Things may not be completely enthralling now but they are firm and fruitful. Enjoy this time of attention and abundance.
Whoa there, Aquarius, nobody is asking for a fight! Someone has pulled a sensitive string with you today and you feel the need to defend yourself to the very end. The truth is you are frustrated because upon further investigation there are flaws in your logic. Know that your pride and stubbornness are getting in the way of change. Don't become difficult. Opt for integration instead.
Today your concentration is on point and you're able to get to the bottom of things efficiently. Your interactions with others force you to become assertive and organized in your thoughts and actions. What you want is what should happen. It's your vision that's coming to light. This is the time to be your own boss.

This is my husbands signature scent and I love it. I am for ever trying to convince him to be more adventurous and try other scents, with no success. On one occasion he got sick of my nagging and tried a scent of Verscae's (sorry cant remember name) only the box and I hated it, Bvlgari BLV wins hands down.He receives a lot of compliments especially from women. I love FrangranceX prices and have compared many websites here in Australia and abroad but FrgranceX ALWAYS have the best prices. Excellent prices keep up the good work!! The testers are even better value for money,so if anyone is just buying it for themselves and not as gifts the testers are value for money and believe me they are the genuine scent and not copies.Why pay for packaging when you dont need to!! [...] I have recommmeded FrangranceX to all my friends

The 2nd Circuit broke new legal ground by saying that laws discriminating against gays, like those targeting racial minorities and women, should get especially rigorous scrutiny from the courts. The Obama administration backs that approach.
The court will review the law using the case of 83-year-old New York resident Edie Windsor, who is fighting a $363,000 estate tax bill imposed after the 2009 death of her spouse, Thea Clara Spyer. Windsor and Spyer were married in Canada in 2007, a marriage the 2nd Circuit concluded would be recognized under New York law.
The legal battle over DOMA doesn't affect a separate provision in the law that says states can refuse to recognize same-sex marriages from other jurisdictions.
Kennedy looms as the potential swing vote in both cases. He has been a champion of gay rights in past cases, writing the 2003 decision that said states can't criminalize gay sex acts. Overturning the convictions of two men in Texas, he wrote that "the state cannot demean their existence or control their destiny by making their private sexual conduct a crime."
Kennedy, appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1988, also wrote the court's 1996 decision striking down a Colorado constitutional amendment that barred cities and counties from enacting anti-discrimination laws to protect gays.
Even so, he underscored in 2003 that he wasn't passing judgment on gay marriage. He said the case "does not involve whether the government must give formal recognition to any relationship that homosexual persons seek to enter."
With assistance from Esme E. Deprez in New York.

Major roads near Owensboro might be undergoing facelifts.
It's all part of a study that's currently underway that could upgrade two parkways.
The Audubon Parkway, along with the Natcher Parkway, could be seeing some changes in the future.
One of those changes would include upgrading the Audubon and Natcher Parkways to Interstate 69 and Interstate 65 spurs.
That potential new designation excites local business owners like Samantha Ellison.
"I think it would be a great idea," said Ellison. "I think it's amazing. I think that, you know, it will be...definitely bring more people downtown, which is what needs to happen with the convention center starting up and they're building that and the new park that we have over here," she said.
City leaders say businesses that are looking to relocate often listen for a key word, interstate.
"I think it's a key element to economic growth," said City Manager Bill Parrish. "Any study you look at economic growth says cities that are on interstates, interstate spurs, have a much higher opportunity to attract business."
But to meet interstate standards, the parkways, especially the Natcher, would have to undergo things like changing bridge heights and widths.
That's what this study examines.
"They'll be able to take that and that will be the basis of going back to the federal government to say 'We want this...we as Kentucky, as the city of Owensboro, obviously, want this turned into an interstate,'" said Parrish.
Ellison looks forward to the possibilities.
"It could help out every single one of us small local-owned businesses down here," she said.
That study should be complete by March.
The cost of any needed changes won't be known until the study's finished.
Officials are also seeing if U.S. 60 could be designated as an interstate as well.

Other sites that I have designed, which are not so popular are not affected?
Any help or ideas appreciated, Thanks

From an early age, Ruthanna learned the importance of a healthy mind and body. How could she not? Her mother was a nutritionist who lived to be 107. Yet though Ruthanna did as her mother said and ate a green and a yellow vegetable every day, she was always small for her age. To her frustration, the nickname her brother gave her, "Puny," stuck for a long time.
The Great Depression hit as Ruthanna was graduating high school, and she had to decline her acceptance to Mount Holyoke College, because her father, who was in the oil business, couldn't afford the room and board. Instead, she enrolled at Findlay College just a few blocks away, from which her mother had graduated.
Ruthanna had taken up piano at age 4, and though she didn't study music in college, she played in a band. As a child, she had discovered she could "play by ear," often needing to hear a song only once before being able to play it. In high school she often performed at school shows. "The only trouble was that I was always down at the piano while the others were up on the stage having fun," Ruthanna remembered, chuckling.
After graduating from Findlay and to help supplement her pay as a high school English teacher, Ruthanna gave piano lessons and directed a church choir. She enjoyed teaching but wanted to make music a bigger part of her life. Ruthanna spent two summers at the University of Wisconsin in Madison working on a graduate degree in music. But she would never get to finish her thesis.
On a blisteringly hot day in August 1942, waiting for her train home, Ruthanna saw a poster of a young, female Uncle Sam exhorting: "Join the WAVES. The Navy Needs You." Three hours later she had set herself on a completely different career path and was enrolled in the Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service.

Party Like A Rockstar - The Reunion Tour by E Evs and Friends - over 2 years ago
"This picture is from the five year reunion of the Party Like a Rockstar group from Penn State. We retraced the steps we took in 2007 to 12 bars in 13 hours, just as if we were still 22 years old. Our shirts were so awesome that on more than one occasion throughout the day, we had people offering us cash for the shirts off of our backs. The picture I provided shows all of us standing in front of the Darkhorse Tavern, the same spot where we took the group picture 5 years ago. It was a very special weekend for all of us (especially me as I'm moving far away from everyone this month) and was made more special by the T-shirts from Custom Ink. The customer service was beyond my exceptions and when my shirts went missing with UPS (good news, they were on my doorstep the whole time), Custom Ink followed up to make sure they were in my hands in time. Thanks Custom Ink!"

Corbett urged to act on health law
Exchange, Medicaid both await approvalNovember 15, 2012 12:00 AM
Share with others:
With the election over and even Republican House Speaker John Boehner declaring "Obamacare is the law of the land," Democratic state legislators are pressing Republican Gov. Tom Corbett to move ahead with implementing key parts of the national health care overhaul.
In the last two days, Rep. Dan Frankel, D-Squirrel Hill, and Rep. Tony DeLuca, D-Penn Hills, have sent letters urging Mr. Corbett to work toward establishing a health insurance exchange and approving expansion of Pennsylvania's Medicaid program.
Mr. Corbett has held off making a final decision while seeking additional information. "At this point we are still waiting for the federal government to answer a number of questions we have concerning the implementation of Medicaid expansion," said Carey Miller, spokeswoman for the governor. "We would like to have responses from them before making an informed decision."
"We should move quickly to affirm our commitment to expanding Medicaid to all eligible residents, in order to fulfill the promise of the Affordable Care Act," Mr. Frankel wrote in a Wednesday letter to the governor. "If we choose to expand, we could guarantee that 600,000 low-income Pennsylvanians have access to preventive care. Without expansion, these uninsured residents will continue to rely on safety net hospitals, who will be required to provide care without compensation."
"Safety net hospitals" are those that provide care to large numbers of low-income or uninsured patients.
The letter from Mr. DeLuca, who is Democratic chair of the state House Insurance Committee, was co-signed by nine of his fellow Democrats on the committee. It urged Mr. Corbett "to follow the example of the 13 states that have already passed exchange legislation and begun the implementation process."
Delaying implementation could result in the loss of $34 million in federal funds to establish a health insurance exchange, Mr. DeLuca said in an accompanying press release.
The June 28 Supreme Court decision upholding the Affordable Care Act blocked a provision that would have penalized states that did not expand their Medicaid eligibility criteria, a ruling effectively making Medicaid expansion optional.
Republican governors in six states -- Louisiana, Florida, Texas, South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi -- quickly came out and said they opposed expanding Medicaid in their states, although at least some of those governors are now being pressured to reconsider.
Mr. Frankel said, "I respect the fact that [Mr. Corbett] did not have this kind of knee-jerk reaction that many Republican governors had, where they said 'I will not participate.'"
But the state representative still believes a decision should be made soon so lawmakers can ready enabling legislation when they reconvene in January, and the state is ready when that provision of the Affordable Care Act goes into effect in 2014.
"I'm hoping that the governor's silence before the election was prudent and that he will now see the reality of the political landscape and see that we're going to do this," Mr. Frankel said. "I think they should commit publicly to doing it and the sooner the better."mobilehome - businessnews - health

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Tucson school district officials have enlisted the help of police with an investigation into allegations that employees have been selling district property illegally for years.
At least six employees who work for the Tucson Unified School District's property control department are on administrative leave, but no one has been charged.
The Arizona Daily Star reports that Superintendent John Pedicone and other district officials refused to comment beyond confirming that an investigation is being done.
Police Sgt. Chris Widmer says it's alleged that one employee paid subordinates to load up tables, desks, chairs, chalkboards and interactive white boards. None of the money made from the sale of the items went back to the school district.
The allegations surfaced in mid-April. They were reported by the district to police on Thursday.

CentOS 5.4 On The Dell Inspiron 2600
Filed under: Distro Review, linux
The Dell Inspiron 2600 is a pretty old laptop, but can still be a useful computer if there's a decent OS installed. I had been running Ubuntu on this machine, but I started getting random freezes starting with Ubuntu Hardy. As a result, I was running Hardy with an older kernel from Gutsy. There were also difficulties with getting the video settings properly configured. I decided it was time to go in search of a new distro to run on this old laptop.
I gave MacPup Opera a try. It seemed to run well. There were no video issues and I didn't experience any random lockups, but I had trouble getting my wireless card properly configured. I'm sure I could have gotten it working with some work, but after an hour of mucking around I figured it was time to move on.
Due to Intel dropping support for the Intel i830 video hardware from the latest drivers included in the Linux kernel, I figured that maybe I should be looking for a distro that ran an older kernel. This is where CentOS came in. My system is now running kernel version 2.6.18. This is by no means an ancient kernel, but it's nowhere near bleeding edge either.
The first thing I did was download the CentOS 5.4 LiveCD and give it a try. Everything worked well. Video was properly recognized and configured as well as my Atheros based D-Link DWL-G650 wireless card. It was time to jump in and go for the full install.
Unlike Ubuntu, you can't install CentOS from the LiveCD, so I proceeded to download the full 6 CD set of ISO's for the CentOS installation. If your computer has a DVD drive there is also a single DVD that you can download. I decided to only burn the first CD to try the installation. One really cool thing about the installation process is that you can go through and select what packages you want to install and the installer will then tell you which of the 6 CD's you will need to complete the installation. You can then cancel the installation, or just leave the message up for a few minutes while you burn the CD's on another computer. My installation only required CD's 1 and 2, so it was nice not to have to burn the other 4. The total installation took about a half hour.
Like many Linux distributions, CentOS does not include codecs for proprietary media formats. Luckily the CentOS Wiki includes instructions for enabling the RPMForge repository. Installing multimedia codecs is then a pretty straight forward process using Yum.
Another package you will likely want to install is pam_keyring. This package allows you to stop the Gnome Keyring prompt from coming up every time you want to connect to your wireless network. You need to edit /etc/pam.d/gdm to get this to work. (Thanks to Paul's Digital World for the instructions.) I edited the file to look like this:
#%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_env.so auth optional pam_keyring.so try_first_pass auth include system-auth account required pam_nologin.so account include system-auth password include system-auth session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke session include system-auth session required pam_loginuid.so session optional pam_console.so session optional pam_keyring.so
The lines in bold are what I had to add.
I haven't gotten suspend or hibernate to work yet, but that's not too big of a deal for me on this old laptop. CentOS may not be the ideal desktop Linux distro for you. It's not quite as easy to get everything working as it is in Ubuntu, but if you've been unfortunate enough to have some hardware difficulties with other Linux distro's then it may be worth giving CentOS a try. I'm certainly happy to have a stable OS running again on my laptop.
6 Responses to "CentOS 5.4 On The Dell Inspiron 2600"
Wanted to let you know Ubuntu 10.04.02 LTS works on these machines. It took a bit of tweeking and I guess that's why I kept ending up here. We would normally default to Linux Mint/LXDE when it seems a machine is too old to take Ubuntu 10.04 - in fact I'm writing this to you on an iMac made in 1999 running MintPPC. Your info on this particular Dell laptop helped me immeasurably. I'm currently setting up 4 Dell Inspiron 2600s with Ubuntu 10.04
I must say, I didn't like using Windoze for the 5-10 minutes it took to download the "I2600A08" [ftp://ftp.dell.com/bios/I2600A08.exe] to load onto a floppy disk(!) to change the bios. And the Lucid Lucy Alternate CD install starts out a little scary when the white diagonal bars take over the screen. But once I figured out what to put in the xorg.conf file (I think I did pretty well, but please let me know if there is something I do or don't need in here) these machines run pretty well.

Thanks again!
God Bless,
I may have replied too soon. The first Dell Inspiron 2600 is running well with 256 MB RAM. However, the 2nd 2600 (of 4) is still running in low-graphics mode even after the above xorg.conf was saved. This is likely due to this 2600 only having 128 MB RAM (what was I thinking?), but I thought I'd mention it before I take a shot at #3.
The reason Hardy kept freezing was because of the ACPI.
Booting up with acpi = off, solves most of these issues - unfortunately it disables the laptops ability to go into sleep or hibernate.
I suspect CentOS couldn't configure your acpi, so just set it to acpi=off on boot, which is why suspend and hibernate don't work properly.

Longview Police caught a man who ran from police during a traffic stop.
It happened around 1:30 Friday afternoon near the intersection of Sarah and Pine Tree Road.
Police had pulled over a red or orange Mustang when the passenger opened his door and ran. One street north, on Primrose Lane, the man looked through a glass door and asked Karen Matthews if he could come in to her house for a minute. She and her husband told him no and he ran into a neighbor's yard.
Police located the suspect and arrested him. An ambulance transported the suspect to a local hospital when he said he was having chest pain.
"I saw him first. My husband got up and opened the door and he said 'can I come in to your house for a minute?' No. Crazy. No!" Matthews said.
The Mustang left the scene. Police say the suspect had two outstanding city warrants.

Most people say they have been glued to the coverage of Friday's Boston Marathon Bomber manhunt since it got underway.
Even at O'Rourkes today, a bar where you typically go to watch sporting events, it seemed people were much more interested in watching the TV that showed the manhunt in Boston.
"We're just worried and praying for the families that have been effected," said Lori McDaniel. "Really just want to see an end to it."
A lot of people there had their eyes glued to televisions in the bar following the latest updates.
"A lot of just watching news stories, going online, checking CNN and Yahoo News," said Christina Finkle. "It seems new information is coming out every half hour and on the hour."
It was not just television and the Internet where people are getting their updates.
"Well I had to take a really long trip today and I was in the car and the entire time I tried to stay listening to talk radio," said Aaron Perlut. "I could make sure what was going on and the development because it's such a fluid situation."
Local first responders say they have also been paying close attention to what's been going on with these tragedies this week. However, their reasons are a little bit different than most.
"It just goes to show when we train and when we exercise and prepare," said Jennifer Tobey, Elkhart EMA Director. "We always say it's not if it happens its when."
The explosions have not just put local Emergency Management departments on alert. Police departments in Michiana say they have also been watching closely. Captain Phil Trent, with the South Bend Police Department, says tragedies like these are why they have plans in place to deal with emergencies.
"We've had quite a few years and if not decades to reflect on a lot of these incidents and come up with an action plan," said Trent.
The American Red Cross also says they are prepared if we saw something as horrible as what's happened in Boston happen in Michiana.
"Hopefully we'll never have to put them to the test but we have put some thought into it and have some basic preparation," said Doug Farmwald, American Red Cross - Saint Joseph County.
Each department says this week's tragedies are just a reminder of why they always are preparing and staying ready to go at a moment's notice.
"We are the people that sit back and think of the what if's and pre-plan," said Tobey.
Tobey added planning for those "what if's" includes everything from being prepared for an explosion to a devastating storm.
Local hospitals have coordinated efforts in place if they need to deal with an emergency like in Boston and Texas. Specifically Memorial Hospital goes through training exercises to keep them prepared if something were to happen.

|Maiden voyage race in my new La Sportivas
I was exhausted after putting on the Rodeo Beach event but needed to blow off some steam, so I headed over to Brazen's New Year Half Marathon the next morning at Lake Chabot. The scene was reminiscent of a renaissance festival, a small village of tents and hundreds of people milling about. In his new, killer, (or serial killer-esque) beard, wearing a hooded sweatshirt with the hood on, and pushing a wheelbarrow, Sam looked like a village hobbit. We chatted for a bit, then I jogged over to the start.
Lon Freeman was the first person I recognized. We'd "talked" via email a lot since we both raced the Ice Age 50 miler last May, so it was a pleasure to finally meet him in person (even if it meant that I'd be getting thoroughly toasted by him over the next hour and a half.
|Lon Freeman ripping towards the finish for the win.
I had no expectations and just figured it'd be a good workout run, so I was pretty conservative in the first couple miles. The hills were deceivingly long and my stair workout earlier in the week came back to haunt me with a flood of lactic acid that felt more like molten lead rushing though my legs. After the longest climb of the race, around mile 7-8, I focused on staying consistent and ahead of the guy I'd spotted behind me.
I finished up in 1:35 and 4th place. Hamstrings were singing for the next two days. Thanks Sam for such a fun event. Looking forward to the next one or ten of them.

PLATTSBURGH — The Beekmantown boys' bowling team defended its Section VII Championship at North Bowl Lanes on Monday.
Upset-minded Northeastern Clinton, however, made the Eagles work for it.
High School Sports Magazine
The Cougars led the Eagles until the fifth game of the day before Beekmantown finished with a 6168 total and Northeastern Clinton at 5976. The Eagles ended up winning by 192 pins.
The Cougars held a 3046-2984 lead over the Eagles following the morning shift and still led, 4164-4104, after the fourth game.
"Northeastern Clinton bowled well during the regular season and they came to bowl today," said Beekmantown coach Charlie Stone. "My hat's off to them.
"We had to dig ourselves out of an early hole. They put up some unbelievable scores, but we fought back and stuck together as a team."
The Eagles rolled a 1063 in game five, while the Cougars had a 925, giving Beekmantown a 5167-5089 lead. The Eagles then held a 1001-887 advantage in game six to pull away.
"We were making good shots and we were able to stay focused," said Stone. "We took the lead in the fifth game and were then able to build on it."
The Eagles' winning team consisted of Matt Dwyer, Matt Corrow, Andrew Roberts, Ryan Munson and Ryan Douglas.
Rolling 600 series or better for Beekmantown were Dwyer, 236-236-670; Corrow, 258-247-672; Munson, 246-205-637; and Douglas, 206-248-222-676 and 225-225-216-666.
The Cougars, meanwhile, got a big day from Joey Robert with a sensational 248-247-267-762 series in the morning and a 267-211-666 in the afternoon. Kyle Sebert added a 233-218-609 and Matt Jolicoeur a 236-602.
"Joey led the way for us," said NCCS coach Rick Dumas. "Kyle and Matt also were key for us. Everything was going well for us — we were rolling along well and making our spares.
"But they made a move late in the fourth game and carried it into the fifth. We had our chances. We were on cloud nine for a while and I was absolutely happy with the way we bowled today."
AuSable Valley finished in third place with a 5751 and was powered by Mike McDonald's 218-243-658 and 231-202-622, Josh Taylor's team-high 231-201-255-687 in the morning and Brandon Ano's 214-217-603 in the afternoon.
Fourth place went to the Beekmantown B team, with Austin Delisle rolling a 213-205-279-697, Dennon Walantus a 235-236-662 and Andrew Baker a 258-210-610.
Some of the other high scores for the boys included Peru standout Jonathan Bowman with a superb 249-232-235-716 and 234-235-665, and Kyle Mendofik a 237-233-631, Ticonderoga's Cole Frasier a 214-248-644, Howard Fuller a 234-235-649 and Joe Johns a 255-612, Plattsburgh High's Nick Dodd a 201-245-224-670 and Josh Shaffer a 234-211-637, Willsboro's Dakoda Latford a 209-261-655 and 221-609, Saranac's Dalton Exford a 203-244-617, and AuSable Valley B's Ben Coolidge with a 244-613.

Councilwoman Nadine Bello was elected council president for 2013 at the township's annual reorganization meeting on Wednesday.
Bello, who represents the 6th Ward, was unanimously elected to the position. She thanked her colleagues for their support and said she will "work hard to represent all of the residents of Wayne.
"Thank you for your support and confidence in me," Bello said.
In his annual State of the Township address, Mayor Chris Vergano said that Wayne is not facing a "fiscal cliff" and that "this administration and this Council have worked together long and hard during the past five years under my tenure to make sure that our financial house would remain in order and I feel that we have accomplished that goal." (A copy of Vergano's speech has been attached to this article.)
Vergano, now in his 6th year as mayor, also highlighted the ongoing recovery of Police Officer Bob Franco.
"He truly is the miracle man of 2012 and has the most positive outlook on life that I have ever witnessed," Vergano said. "I truly believe that one day he will return to the Police Department and we wish him all the best [with] his recovery."
The township will purchase 17 more flood-prone homes in the Hoffman Grove section of town. This is in addition to dozens of homes that have been purchased and knocked down already.
Vergano said the township has made offers to purchase 65 homes in flood areas under the federal government's Severe Repetitive Loss Program. The township will use $20 million to purchase the homes, which will then be knocked down, and the land they are on will be left to nature.
Fifty-seven homes are also be purchased by the state through the Hazardous Mitigation Grant Program.
Steven Toth, assistant chief of Company 2, was sworn in as fire commissioner. His appointment to that position is for two years.

WLAX Continues A-Sun Action at Stetson
Follow @JUWomensLAX
DELAND, Fla. - The Jacksonville University women's lacrosse team continues conference action at Stetson on Saturday, April 12. Game time is set for 1 p.m. at the Athletic Training Center.
"Our focus of this weekend is effort," said Head Coach Mindy McCord. "After reviewing the last few game videos, I have to say that we are not running the way we need to in order to accomplish our goals. This is something that we control and has nothing to do with who we play. What makes our team special is our ability to run for days. We have not been doing this up to our standards. This has to be our prime focus this weekend."
Against Stetson, JU is 1-0 after taking a 20-3 victory on April 6, 2013.
JU's bench was highly contributory to the team's 18-5 triumph over Detroit this past Sunday. The reserves netted 10 goals on 14 shots taken and were also 7-of-11 on the draw, 5-of-10 on caused turnovers and only committed four fouls.
The Dolphins also finished with a 39-17 advantage in total
shots and a 19-14 edge in ground balls.
Freshman Danielle Della Rocca lit up the scoreboards last weekend, directing the Dolphins offense with five goals on six shots taken. All six of her shots were on target and she completed the split-win trip with a shooting percentage of 83.3 percent.
Keeper Asia Moore has also been hot lately with 31 saves and just 25 goals in her past four outings. "A fifty-five percent save percentage is all-American-like numbers if done for a season! We are super-excited for her emergence as a top goalie in the Atlantic Sun conference!"
The Hatters (1-12, 1-0) earned their first win of the season last Saturday in a 23-21 overtime thriller at Kennesaw State. Attackers Danielle Horgan and Christina Loya combined for 13 scores and the game marked Stetson's best offensive output in program history.
Loya directs the team with 15 goals and five assists and Horgan trails closely with 13 and 3.
"We are making some changes to build our midfield speed and every midfield position is open this week at practice," continued McCord. "We need more leadership from this unit and we have to get moving in the midfield. Our attackers have been riding better, but finishing and moving the ball unselfishly is a big emphasis for them. Defensively their focus is on doing the little things well and stepping up accountability of performance. We know what our team is capable of when their talent is on display, but it's the effort and commitment to detail that allows the talent to be displayed. I think that working on all of these elements this week will help push us to that level. I have faith that the leaders of the team can help us to pull together down the stretch and get us to that level. I believe in my team. We have not played our best lacrosse yet."
Jacksonville's final road contest of the regular season will take place at Vanderbilt on Wednesday, April 16. First draw is scheduled for 2 p.m.

Wrapping Up 2012
As one year ends and another begins, it is only natural to look back and reflect while planning and gearing up for what is ahead. At {e} house studio, we take our holiday project as just that, a project. We try not to think of it as another thing on our never ending to-do list but as an opportunity to have fun together and showcase the wide array of talents in our community and our team while saying a heart felt "thank you" to those that we have had the chance to work with over the last year. So as Spring is flirting with us in the near future, we wanted to take this opportunity to take one more look back at our experience with the 2012 Good{e}'s project. Because we were having so much fun, we decided to document the process. Join us in watching our short "debut" film about our annual Good{e}'s project.

CAPE CORAL: The Cape Coral City Council voted to go forward with the utilities expansion project after nearly four hours of debate.
That means property owners north of Pine Island Road will trade their wells for city water and it comes at an estimated cost of about $6,000 per property owner.
Dozens of residents pleaded with council Monday night not to move forward with the project. Their message was the same. They said they can't afford this right now and that the move will force them out of their homes.
"People are just barely hanging on and the utilities program will be the finale for them," said Cape Coral resident Paul Bozwell.
Council members who voted in favor of the project pointed out that residents can defer payments and there will be hardship programs available.
To hear more about the project, you can attend one of two public meetings.
They will be held February 19 and 26 at 5:30 p.m. in the Mariner High Auditorium.
Notices will start to go out to affected homeowners this week.

Rated 4 out of 5�by tony111 good intro ductory bow My 8 year old daughter is interested in target shooting. So this bow was attractive from both a size and price standpoint.It has descent power and the tension is light enough for her little upper body strength. Accuracy well she's working on that July 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by hellboy5 AMAZING This bow is great for beginners! It has a good grip July 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Bri Good for a first-timer in the backyard I recently purchased this item for my boyfriends 18th birthday. I didn't want to get a full adult sized bow because I was worried that he would end up shooting his neighbor or one of the local kids, so this is the perfect thing to get for a beginner. This bow managed to keep 4 teenage boys and a grown man entertained for 2 whole hours. The only thing I would suggest is buying extra arrows since this set only comes with 3 of them. The arrows do come to a slight point, so it will hurt if you get hit with one but it does not pierce flesh (which is what I wanted) Still its not to be played around with and would probably go through an eye so be careful. Its also surprisingly strong, it goes about 6 inches deep into a styrofoam target. July 2, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Sodapop Lil banshee This bow is too much for a pewee but not enough for a cub. It's a dust collector June 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by HuneRose For my 11-year-old My 11-year-old returned from camp wanting his own little archery set so we got this to see how serious his interest was. He plays every day getting better and better and his friends all have enjoyed it as well. ? seeing them outside with it versus on video games all summer long. June 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by MRoberts Gift for 6 year old girl It's a little difficult for her to pull back, but she'll have it down in no time. Good for a challenge. 8 and 10 year old daughters are enjoying it, too! May 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by CCFORKER Great starter bow for my daughter. This is perfect for a young beginner. My daughter spends most of the weekend outside playing with it. May 28, 2014

Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Actinomycetes are filamentous Gram-positive bacteria with a complex life cycle which are widely distributed in terrestrial ecosystems, especially in soil. They are producers of a large number of natural products, many of them with clinical, pharmaceutical or agricultural application. In the last decades, marine actinomycetes are increasingly being isolated from marine environments demonstrating that actinomycetes are ubiquitous in marine sediments, but at lower numbers than in soils. Furthermore, marine actinomycetes have been found in symbiosis with different marine invertebrates, especially sponges. They have attracted great attention since they have developed unique metabolic and physiological capabilities that offer the potential to produce natural products with interesting pharmacological activities and therefore they provide a source of novel natural products with potential application in the near future.

Brittle Torte Recipe
This was my mom's favorite special-occasion cake. When I was in high school, she often asked me to make it for her. The homemade brittle gives it a satisfying crunch. —Phyllis Murphey, Lower Lake, California
- 8 eggs, separated
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1-1/2 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Let eggs stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
- Place oven rack in lowest position. Preheat oven to 325°. Combine flour, sugar and salt. Whisk egg yolks, water, lemon juice and vanilla; add to flour mixture. Beat until blended.
- Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form; fold into batter. Spoon into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through batter with a knife to remove air pockets. Bake 50-60 minutes or until top springs back when touched. Immediately invert pan; cool completely.
- For topping, grease a 15x10x1-in. pan. In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, water and coffee granules. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 300° (hard-crack stage).
- Remove from heat; stir in baking soda. Immediately pour into prepared pan. Stretch brittle in pan with two forks; cool. Break into pieces. In a large bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add sugar and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form.
- Unmold cake; cut horizontally into four layers. Place bottom layer on a serving plate; top with 1/2 cup whipped cream. Repeat layers twice; top with remaining layer. Frost top and sides of cake with remaining cream. Sprinkle with brittle. Yield: 12 servings.

I made this over the holidays for a celebration with friends. The cake was good with a vanilla flavor and more of a angel food texture. The brittle did not turn out. I have made peanut brittle many times and I am familiar with the process. On both attempts at making the brittle it burned. Once you got to the step where it said not to stir, it burnt. I had to run to the store at the last minute and get toffee pieces.

Format Farm RTÉ Two innovative new pilot series
Format Farm is an innovative new series of exciting homegrown entertainment pilots. Partnering up with Irish independent production companies and the biggest TV distributors in the world, RTÉ have commissioned this run of five pilot programmes, featuring The Takeover, The Hit, Six in the City, Baptism of Hire and Love Clinic to entertain audiences at home and also to be exported around the world, bringing jobs and revenue back to Ireland.
The Takeover
The Takeover sees real people take the fight for their jobs into their own hands in the most radical business makeover format ever. A struggling company is turned upside down when the boss stands aside for two weeks and the workers takeover the workplace.
In the pilot episode we meet cake makers Tea Time Express, a nostalgic Irish brand that is now a struggling business. In a last ditch attempt to revive the business and return the bakers to a five day working week, they challenge their employees to make the changes they've always dreamed of. When the bosses return at the end of the fortnight they are presented with the results of The Takeover and find out whether the employees have done enough or done damage.
But what happens when the bakers, encounter the harsh realities of running a business? How do they cope with life in sales and top level management and vice versa? Business expert, Norah Casey is on-hand, but she is not going to save the day. It's her role to help the staff be the experts. With the pressure on and all the employees accountable for their own futures, we see the impact on everything from client to team relationships that could either benefit them in the long term or be detrimental to their futures.Back to Entertainment New Season Highlights Back to RTÉ Two Highlights

New York Times best-selling author Joanne Fluke's cozy mysteries grow in popularity with each new series entry.
One summer in Lake Eden, Minnesota, Hannah Swensen attends the grand opening of a newly refurbished hotel, where her famous red velvet cupcakes will be served in the new Red Velvet lounge. But when a party guest falls from the hotel roof, festivities come to a screeching halt - and Hannah becomes the surprising target of a murder investigation.
©2013 H.L. Swensen, Inc. (P)2013 Recorded Books
"Very cute and easy listening"
No...because of the receipes..i want them...in my catalog
I love Suzanne Toren as a narrator...she makes the story better. I also listened to her with the Team of rivals Lincoln story...and that's when i became a follower.
The receipes were a bonus this is my first Joanne Fluke, I commute and i just wanted something easy to listen to...and this was just perfect.
This is an "easy listen" cozy mystery. I'm not a baker, so the recipes don't interest me. However, the food described sounds very tasty. I find it's best to listen to books in this series on a full stomach so I can more easily resist the temptation to snack while I'm listening.
Early in the book I correctly guessed where the final confrontation between Hannah and the killer would take place. However, I didn't guess who the killer was until that final confrontation took place.
For me, much of the charm of these books comes from the characters and the setting.
This is a gently paced cozy. There is no explicit violence or language.
Narrator Suzanne Toren has a pleasant, clear speaking voice.
"Good clean fun for Mom & Daughter"
Since it seems like there are fewer and fewer books being written that are fun to listen to with my family, I'd have to rate this one in the top 10%. There are no groundbreaking fictional landmarks but it is fun, the characters are engaging and I usually am wrong about who "done it"
Doctor Bev comes back to town…. Was hoping she'd never show her face in Lake Eden again!!
Hannah and Norman
Red Velvet Cake - it's a killer….
I love the recipes in this book and since I usually buy them as audiobooks and do not have the written version, I was happy to find there are websites where you can find most if not all of the recipes!! I am happy because then I can copy them into Mac Gourmet easily!! Bwahahahaha
romance addict
I love JoAnne Fluke. These books are like taking a trip back to my favorite small town USA
the characters are so awesome and she puts a new spin on it every time. I wish Hannah would go ahead a marry Norman though. I really hated Dr Bevn this book- great villain. It just was a great book and a must read in the series.
"Decent but the annoying voices ruined it"
Loved the recipes!
This one is par for the course, decent plot but the voices were whiney and EXTREMELY annoying.
Dina Pearlman
There was no way i could listen to this all the way through without breaks.
Obsessive reader, 6-10 books a week, chosen from Member reviews. Fact & fiction, subjects from the Tudors to Tookie, Harlem to Hiroshima, Huey Long to Huey Newton. In-depth fair reviews - from front to BLACK!!!
I don't like to cook - that's why I have time to read as many books as I do. I don't know what this fraction of fiction fluff is trying to do but I don't want recipes in the middle of a murder mystery! This book reminds me of cotton candy - inviting sugary sweetness that disappears at the first bite! I only got through about 30 minutes before I felt cavities forming in my molars. If it wasn't so bogged down in recipes, this might have been a good book. As it stands now, it is "Hell's Kitchen" - WITHOUT the sexy Chef Ramsay.
"Move the recipes they ruin the flow"
I do not like that the recipes have been left in the middle of the books. When I listen to the Goldy Bear mysteries they have moved all the recipes to the end of the recording so it doesn't break up the stories.
"I remembered why I stopped reading this series"
I'm not sure if I liked this so little because it was an audiobook and the reader did not do it justice, or if I did not like it because it was just not a good book. Either way, the only reason I finished it is because I paid for it and I was working on my knitting and nothing was on television.
First, when I am listening to an audiobook I don't want to listen to someone READ a recipe at the end of every other chapter, it's annoying.
Second, it what universe does a woman in her mid 30s have two boyfriends for over five years and not have sex with either one and they stick around. Pick one, kill one, meet Prince Charming at the racetrack and drop them both, I don't care, it's just stupid. Also stupid is that Hannah is jealous when either one of them talks to another woman socially.
Third, the police department is so inept they come to Hannah for help solving their crimes.
Audible listener who's grateful for a long commute!
"Hot Dishes & Cold Murder"
Lake Eden, Minnesota is the most murderous small town since Cabot Cove, Maine. Mystery writer and detective Jessica Fletcher lived in Cabot Cove, solving crimes week after week in the series "Murder, She Wrote" (1984-1996). At least 2% of the population of Cabot Cove succumbed to blows to the head, gunshot wounds, stranglings and poisonings.
The creative killings spread to small town Minnesota. Lake Eden resident Hannah Swensen owns the 'The Cookie Jar', a popular coffee shop and bakery in the middle of 'downtown'. Hannah bakes and solves mysteries with the help of her business partner, two sisters, her widowed mother, and two beaus, Norman, the town dentist; and Sheriff Mike. That's a good thing: the town's homicide rate isn't as high as Cabot Cove's (yet!) but percentage-wise, it's 100 times higher than New York City's 2013 statistics.
Hannah's in her late 20's? Early 30's? She's a little behind on technology (would any of us explore the scene of an accident without a cell phone in hand?) but that's an author/editor issue: Joanne Fluke is two generations older than her fictional Hannah. Fluke could have set her mysteries all in the same general time, as Sue Grafton does with her Kinsey Millhone mysteries (A is for Alibi, 1982 - present), but since Fluke's books really are 'jumpable' (you can go from #1 to #15 to #7, etc. without a problem), readers in a couple of years won't even notice the problem.
Hannah Swensen mysteries aren't terribly difficult to solve, but complicated plots aren't the point here. Okay-to-good dialogue and really great recipes are. I've tried several from some of Joanne Fluke's earlier books (Cream Puff Murder, 2009; and Cherry Cheesecake Murder, 2006) and they were yummy. I'm planning on making the title confection from "Red Velvet Cupcake Murder" (2013) . . and the pancakes later in the book sound great.
One thing I won't be making is the Chicken Tetrazzini Hot Dish that appears in the book. Translation for those of you who weren't raised in the Land of 10,000 Lakes and 1,000,000,000 Mosquitos: a Hot Dish is a called a casserole most other places, and it almost always involves Cream-of-Mushroom soup, grated cheese and chicken, and is cooked at 350 degrees for an hour. Fluke includes an honest to goodness Hot Dish recipe, complete with the nod to Campbell's best selling soup.
The narration was done in almost over the top Minnesotan, and yes, the Frozen Chosen do have an accent. Remember the Coen Brother's 1996 movie "Fargo"? Frances McDormand, playing Marge Gunderson, got it right.
Recommendation: if you are new to the series, pick the book with the desert you'd most like to make.
[If this review helped, please press YES. Thanks!]
Great story enjoyed it apart from the recipes at the end of every chapter this spoilt it for me why not leave recipes until the end. have read these books and just skip the recipes and read them at the end if they interest me.

PLATTSBURGH — The rainy weather has left farmers concerned about their crops this season, and many are catching up on their harvest with the recent sunny weather.
Tony LaPierre, president of the Clinton County Farm Bureau and owner of Rusty Creek Farm in Chazy, has delayed harvesting his hay for about a month.

"It (the rain) has delayed a lot of normal cropping routines," LaPierre said.
Although planting corn typically begins at the end of May, some seed never went in the ground.
"A lot of people got their corn in, but there are still a lot of unplanted acres. Probably 20 to 25 percent of the acreage in the county is unplanted," LaPierre said.
Some corn that was planted didn't fare well in the wet weather, especially seeds that were planted in low-elevation areas.
"Corn that was planted there has drowned. The seedlings can't survive more than 48 hours under water," LaPierre said.
But corn isn't the only problem. Local farmers have struggled to harvest hay.
Hay fields need about four days in a row of sun before they can be harvested, LaPierre explained.
"If you have excess moisture, you're not able to put up a good quality bale," he said.
A wet bale can become moldy, which is a hazard to livestock. If the moisture level is too high, hay can combust, which is a hazard to farm structures.
"Any poor quality feed is poor for the health of the animal. You can't feed that kind of feed to livestock and expect them to do well," LaPierre said.
Often, cows will pick through moldy hay or refuse to eat it, he said.
Typically, farmers begin harvesting their hay in late May or early June.
"Here it is, in July, and very small amounts of hay have been put up," LaPierre said. "A lot of the crop has gone by or is mature in the field."

It would be nice if grammar were taught better in school and good grammar were promoted more for the sake of clear communication. That desire though needs to be tempered by the realization that language changes. My linguistics study in college biased me towards this realization. English especially is hard to codify due to all the variations and dialects. Most English grammar taught in school isn't even the same as how people speak and write anymore. For example, schools teach that adverbs come after the verbs (at least when I was in school). I hardly know anyone who speaks that way (I know hardly!?). Gina, you broke this rule yourself when you wrote, "I obviously missed National Grammar Day".
BTW, comma overuse to me is a punctuation issue and not a grammar problem.
