The staff was very helpful and friendly.
I was dissatisfied with the lack of help from the manager for the most part when we needed to extend our stay because our daughter was in the hospital down here. She seemed less helpful after she had seen we book our current stay through a third party.King beds are clean and comfortable. King room was very spacious. There were cobwebs around the ceiling throughout the room. I would recommend staying on the top floor because of the noise that can be heard above you and stay away from the stairwells. Kids were running up and down them the last two nights we stayed. Had to call front desk.

There are not many choices to stay in this area unless you want to spend in excess of a benjamin. This hotel is decent, has flat screen TV's with a good channel assortment, and workable WIFI. It is certainly not a luxury hotel, but overall it's acceptable
They had two minor league baseball teams coming in during my stay, and they asked if I would mind moving rooms in the middle of my stay. It was an inconvenience, but it was likely quieter to move than have a room in the middle of the teams.The beds are reasonably comfortable, and the shower water pressure is very good. Bathroom amenities are decent, and in some rooms there is a work desk. The property is in a decent area, so no security concerns.

Set, hut.
Eight, nine and ten year olds on the Franklin Charger's Pop Warner team are learning about the game of football and also about how to be part of a team. Anyone who has been on a team knows that a key part is learning how to communicate and follow instructions.
But for number 47, when the coaches yell out a play, he only hears silence.
Nine year old Kyle Florio has been deaf since birth. He was born with the love of football. Kyle's parents are also deaf and they wanted their son to be able to play sports just like all the other kids. So they supported his decision when he wanted to join the Pop Warner league.
"I feel like it's a little different. Most of the time, feels just normal," says Kyle through an interpreter.
This year mark the third year Kyle has been drafted by the Charger's as a defensive back. And thanks to his team's generosity, they have raised thousands of dollars every year to make sure Kyle has an interpreter right there on the field with him, putting Kyle on a level playing field with everyone else.
"It's really nice to have an interpreter there. Have full communication access, full enjoyment. It's almost like a sense of equity among the players, says Steve Florio, Kyle's father, through an interpreter.
One way they've been able to simplify communication for Kyle is to assign each play a number. That way, the interpreter only needs to sign a number and Kyle knows what to do. Kyle wears a wrist band with the plays and their corresponding numbers written out for him. He's also learned how to use his disability as an ability because it forces him to make full use of all of his other senses.
"He may notice more movement; may be giving him more cues or hints of what's coming at him. He might be able to break to the play sooner. There's some advantages," says Steve Florio.
"If a player is out of position, he'll go and help him in his right position and help get him in his right alignment. It's unbelievable," says the coach.
"He's a good catcher. He's good at getting hand offs and he's just a good friend," says a teammate.
So far, the team has raised over $2,000 of the $3,600 they need for an interpreter. They're holding another fund-raiser tomorrow.

I live in Winnipeg, MB, Canada and am a huge bucs fan. I know the bucs signed QB Dan Orlovsky to backup Josh Freeman, but I thinks there are better backup QBs than him? etc. If we lose QB J.Johnson in free agency who should we look at or draft this year.
QB Vince Young,

How about at RB: Joseph Addai, Ronnie Brown, Tim Hightower, etc...

Recipe by Erin
"Moist and juicy comfort food. Great for family dinners, but tasty enough for company. Great with colcannon or other mashed potato dishes. Pairs well with carmenere or chianti.
Caution: This is NOT a low-fat dish. Enjoy in moderation. You can use ground turkey instead of the beef without losing much flavor, if you must. Try venison or veal in place of the lamb for a change."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 pound
ground beef chuck
1 pound
ground pork
1 pound
ground lamb
1 cup
chopped button mushrooms
1 cup
bread crumbs
3 tablespoons
minced garlic
2 tablespoons
dried thyme
1 tablespoon
soy sauce
1 tablespoon
mushroom-flavored soup base
1 tablespoon
dried parsley
1 tablespoon
dried sage
1 pound
bacon strips
I am giving a high-five for spices and originality here. I do not eat ketchup, bbq sauce or tomato paste/sauce, and this recipe uses a great combo of spices instead of that same old tomato-based flavor. I also appreciate no onion! I made only a few small changes: I did not wrap with bacon, and instead of ground pork, I used Hot Pork Sausage in the mix. I used a large loaf pan, and at 350 it only needed about an hour. In the middle of the loaf I placed a string cheese just for fun. There was not as much grease as you would expect, I did not have to pour any off during cooking at all. The loaf did NOT crumble at all, and thick slices made great sandwiches for days! Thanks for the great recipe, it was perfect for our family.
Yummy. I did not wrap the loaf with bacon I covered the top instead.I topped with swiss cheese and more mushrooms. Will do this again.
3 Ratings
The family just loved this recipe and gobbled up both loaves. It made a very nice moist loaf that was beautiful and held up wonderfully. I didn't have mushroom soup base so I used some beef mushroom gravy that I was going to serve over the top other than that I didn't change a thing. With that being said I didn't care for it because of the spices and I knew I wouldn't so I wasn't disappointed. Be mindful (as I was) that if your not a sage and thyme fan your gonna have a bad time with this recipe but if you are this is totally one to try.

Total War
By Pejman Yousefzadeh Posted in 2008 | Barack Obama | Hillary Clinton | Kneel Before Zod | Let's You And Him Fight | Rooting For Injuries — Comments (16) / Email this page » / Leave a comment »
If anyone thinks that the Clintons are going away anytime soon, they had better think again. Bill Clinton is upping his involvement in the campaign and while that may mean an increased chance for gaffes, it shows that the Clintons are in the race for the long haul. They are assisted by Bob Herbert, who has taken a break from issuing his cookie-cutter Republican-bashing columns to argue that Barack Obama is responsible for a lot of his own political problems. Hillary Clinton is cutting into Obama's national lead. Eleanor Clift is speculating that the Clintons are preparing an enemies list to refer to frequently after they presumably win and all of this is indicative of a rising conventional wisdom that states that Hillary Clinton might yet pull off winning the Democratic nomination.

One of the problems is that anger is growing like a cancer among Democrats. The Clintons have more than lived up to their polarizing reputations, slicing and dicing the electorate and then gleefully exploiting the myriad divisions.
Is there a point at which anger can no longer be called anger, but must be termed some other state of mind? Because Democrats have been angry since Bush's unanimous defeat of Gore in 2000.
And the Clinton's can't help but divide. They're just typical white people.
By which I mean to point out that that Mr. Obama deals the cards played against him.

of the prosecutions evidence against liberal posters who come to RedState and other conservative sites for the purpose of an "honest debate."
They decry our willingness to discuss issues with them. But, when faced with the fact that they are disallowed to use profanity -- when confronted with "ideas" -- when stripped of KnownFacts™ and Talking-Point-o-Matic™ bullet points -- when it devolves for them, down into an actual battle of wits; they find themselves unarmed for the conflict and forced to end the affair by falling on their own petard as an act of self-immolation.

"I believe we must adjourn this meeting to some other place." - The last recorded words of Adam Smith.
The protracted and increasingly acrimonious fight for the Democratic presidential nomination is unnerving core constituencies -- African Americans and wealthy liberals -- who are becoming convinced that the party could suffer irreversible harm if Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton maintains her sharp line of attack against Sen. Barack Obama.
Washington Post, April 26, 2008

So far I've got nothing --- save for a bowl of really soggy raisin bran.

Restating: The Best Primary Evar is making blacks and elitists nervous. Blacks and elitists think the Best Primary Evar could ruin the Party.
What I think, after coming back to this after several hours, is that the writer is projecting his own nervousness (as an elitist black) onto the two groups to which he can claim membership.
Gone 2500 years, still not PC.
EVERY republican in the next 9 states and territories must vote Clinton. That is the best way the liberals end up destroying each other through the summer. The close Hillary gets, the more artillery she will bring to bear on Obama's position. All to our benefit..

Second, this is one of the few times in my life that I am voting for my true choice, not just the lesser of two "not so greats."
I'll be voting McCain in NC just as if NC actually mattered in the R primary.

Obama is wounded. He won't debate Hillary. The gaffes & vulnerabilities have come at a blistering pace. They smell blood, see wounds, & will pound those wounds incessantly. She's wounded also, however hers are old wounds she's become used to having. Obama's wounds are fresh. She realizes this is likely her one best opportunity to be the democrat nominee for president & will not let it slip away.
It no longer matters. Obama - Hillary... pick one or even some thrid person, it no longer matters.
No matter who, 'wins' some sizable part of the Democratic Party will be hacked off in a major way. A national campaign is one of inches of single digits... and one can not afford to lose many.
Both of those brain donors have done so... and thus... every day it gets oh so much harder for the 'winner' to... well win in Nov.
He can't win w/o the blue collar white vote. She can't win w/o the Black vote.
These are the facts and they are beyond dispute.

After a brief summer hiatus, Pierre Marie Giraud stuns us yet again with Illumination, a beautiful solo show of Japanese glassmaker Ritsue Mishima. Mishima began her career as a stylist for various advertising firms, finally moving to Venice in the late 1980s to dedicate herself to working with glass.
In the mid 1990s, Mishima visited the glass workshops of the Murano Islands and began perfecting her glassmaking skills. Illumination highlights the clarity of Mishima's work. While most Venetian glass is richly colored, Mishima lets the material speak in untinted beauty: "I leave them clear so they melt into their surroundings, the light passing through so that only the contours remain, lending a floating ethereal quality."
At Pierre Marie Giraud, the work effortlessly captures light from the windows and colors from the courtyard, creating perfect harmony with its context and surroundings. Work from Ritsue Mishima will also be on view at Pierre Marie Giraud's booth at Design Miami/ 2012 this December.

Academy of Science
Academy of Science (AOS) is a highly selective science-based club that performs genuine research in Molecular Genetics and science-related community service. Currently AOS is participating in Rutgers' Waksman Student Scholars Program (WSSP). The WSSP is one of few programs where teachers and students work alongside university researchers to learn how to apply modern principles of molecular biology in the natural world in effort to publish DNA sequences on the NCBI server, an international 'bank' of genetic sequences. Students in AOS will be genuine published authors of DNA sequence(s) if they complete the program effectively. In addition to Genetics Research, AOS supports all of the JPS Science Teachers by providing them with Server Space for individual teacher websites.
Science Technology Club
JPS Science and Technology is a competition based club that not only enables students to use their engineering side to express themselves, but also encourages them to apply the science that they have learned throughout their academic years. The competitions fall under various categories to include Physics Olympics, Chemistry Olympics, Science Bowl, and Science League. Although competitions mainly dominate the club calendar, volunteering opportunities are also incorporated into the year's events. Early in the school year, students visit Liberty Science Center during National Chemistry Week to provide children with themed science demonstrations. Towards the conclusion of the school year, we take our scientific knowledge on the road once again to explore basic science principles with students from elementary school latchkey programs. If you are interested in joining JPS Science and Technology Club, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or notify Mrs. Lumsden or Mrs. Pittenger in rooms B1 and B3.
Knowledge Masters
The JPS Knowledge Masters teams compete in the Knowledge Master Open (KMO), a semiannual worldwide multiple-choice academic competition.

Science League
The JP chapter of Science League is a club that specializes in competing with other schools across the state in various disciplines of science, such as biology, chemistry, physics, and environmental science. Students are asked to function in subject teams once they pass an entrance examination, in which they will be part of a 4 month competition series under the leadership of their team captain to win state and individual awards. We seek students who understand and exemplify the values of education and scientific interest to contribute to a successful year. Through this club, new members will be motivated to excel in their studies, as we ultimately hope for all involved to gain a sense of self-confidence in their increasing knowledge of the subject area.
Science Olympiad
Students participating in the Science Olympiad attend and compete in several tournaments during the school year. These tournaments are rigorous academic interscholastic competitions that consist of a series of individual and team events which students prepare for throughout the school year. The competitions follow the format of popular board games, TV shows, and athletic games. These challenging and motivational events are well balanced between the various science disciplines of biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, computers and technology. There is also a balance between events requiring knowledge of science facts, concepts, processes, skills and science applications. Students from all grade levels are encouraged to apply, however, the application process is highly competitive as there are only 20 students who compete in the tournaments.
Students are invited to take part in academic competitions as a result of teacher/supervisor recommendations. After rigorous practice sessions, teams representing JPS are selected to participate in various competitions that focus on specific areas of the state's Core Curriculum Content Standards. It is mandatory that team members commit to one practice session per week after school.
Tournaments include educationally challenging activities in language arts, mathematics, science and social studies. The events emphasize the ability to think critically, solve problems as part of a team, and communicate effectively. Teams have the opportunity to participate in the following events: The New Jersey Challenge, broadcast on New Jersey's public television network; the Rutgers/Princeton Bowl; and the Bridgewater-Raritan Invitational Tournament of Excellence (B.R.I.T.E.) which may lead to a national competition.

Leadership traits acquired through our organization last a lifetime! Student Council is responsible for overseeing many of the prime events our students enjoy coming to and establish our role in the community. Right from the start, we help make freshmen students feel more welcomed to our community with a Freshmen Social. Here, upper-classmen and other students run icebreakers and get to know you games. Likewise, our big events, such as JPS Got Talent and Mr. JPS shows are sold out and provide great entertainment. Our donations to the student body, school, and community do not go unnoticed. Our contributions leave an unprecedented mark on our school. Being part of this fantastic organization is easy to join!

Juniors and seniors applying to visit schools will be asked to submit two teacher recommendations and a note of commitment from themselves and a parent/guardian. Students must be truly interested in a child related career and be committed to attending each visitation and meeting. Leaving school for visitations is a great privilege and must be taken seriously.

You get to leave your study hall with all of its noise and commotion and spend time in a nice quiet atmosphere. You learn how to use the front desk computer, checking out books to students and faculty. Also, you help manage computer use by assigning computers to students. Library Aides help organize and shelve books and magazines. As a Library Aide, you will also check student passes, distribute items to mailboxes in the main office and help with general library maintenance. In order to become a Library Aide, stop into the library for an application. It's easy to complete. We like to schedule two Library Aides per period so that our aides can work together to keep the library running smoothly. Throughout the year, we have fun helping students and teachers use the library and a Library Aide Trip is planned for the end of the year. We hope you can join the staff!

What does the club actually do? The club, as you can tell from the name, simulates the United Nations. Participants are assigned a country to represent their policies in various committees. The committees address such diverse and current issues from economics to the AIDS epidemic.
Many students believe that MUN is an exclusive club. However, any student interested in international affairs and public speaking is welcomes.
Odyssey of the Mind
The purpose of this organization is to compete in the OotM problems as presented by the National Chapter and to promote creative competition among the students. Any student may be eligible to belong provided they are not failing any subject, is a member of the competing team, and is trustworthy and honest.
The JPS Robotics Team, known as the "Warhawks" are part of the international FIRST Robotics Competition. FRC combines the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology. Under strict rules, limited resources, and time limits, teams of 25 students or more are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program robots to perform prescribed tasks against a field of competitors. It's as close to "real-world engineering" as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team.
Architecture Construction and Engineering Mentor Program (ACE)
As part of a national competition, students learn from industry professionals, i.e. architects, engineers, and others. Students team up to create a large scale design project which solves a real world set of parameters.
Ski Club
Skiing and/or snowboarding are lifetime sports. The Ski and Snowboard Club welcomes any students, grades 9 - 12 who would like to attend any or all of the club's trips this winter. Students of all abilities from beginners to advanced skiers and snowboarders are encouraged to participate in the club's scheduled trips. Trips are held on Saturdays or Sundays and are a great way to make it to the mountain more often than you might be able to on your own, while also making friends. You will need warm clothing (preferably water proof), skies or snowboard (can be rented at the mountain or a local ski shop), the club highly advises you to wear a helmet and to ski or ride with a buddy at all times. Come on a trip and fight the "winter time blues". THINK SNOW!!!

Bechtolsheim: One reason I left in 1995 is that one of my concerns at the time was that we should be really building an x86-based server, and I was getting worried that the cost performance of those systems was edging up with the SPARC architecture. Here I am 10 years later or 12 years later actually doing what I suggested the company should be doing earlier.... People keep asking was this like a prearranged marriage? But the honest truth was I had no idea I would be coming back to Sun. I was actually happy building this [sort of] little business, but when Sun decided to enter the industry-standard market, it became an opportunity to build a much more significant business here. So that's why I'm back here.
InfoWorld: Were you the founder of the SPARC architecture?
Bechtolsheim: What happened is Bill, even though he was really the software guy, became convinced in, I think it was 1984, that Motorola and the whole microprocessor architecture they were using, which was the 68000, was just not keeping up, or not taking advantage of what the technology could do. And after some interesting investigations, we concluded that we might as well design our own architecture, which was, for a small startup company, quite the bold thing to do. What was correct about this was it gave us a performance lead for many, many years, and then [we grew] the company to many, many billion dollars. So it was actually a very successful decision. Now, I was not involved in the original SPARC chip design. However, I was involved in the design of SPARCstation 1, which was really the first high-volume product around SPARC, which was a pizza-box workstation that was launched in 1989. And that was actually Sun's best-selling product for a while, and that was followed by the SPARCstation 2 and 10 and 20. And then I guess I got a little tired of doing all these workstations, so I decided there was a new opportunity in gigabit networking. But now I do see an opportunity back in the server space, and that's why I'm back here.
InfoWorld: Do you think SPARC has much of a future at this point?
Bechtolsheim: Well, it's the mainstream of the company. In fact, it's growing again. And the price performance and power efficiency of these multithreaded architectures is quite compelling. Now, having said that, it is Solaris-only, so it defines the Solaris market, whereas the industry-standard architecture of course runs Linux as well as Windows. From a volume perspective, the industry's architecture is way ahead. But we have a number of very loyal SPARC customers, and we don't see a reason to switch anytime soon, so we will keep investing in SPARC as long as that makes sense.
InfoWorld: Would you say that Sun has righted the ship? I remember quarter after quarter after quarter where Sun was just getting bigger and bigger. And then during dot.com bust, Sun, like everybody else, slipped. Would you say that you righted the ship with the open-sourcing of Solaris and Java and that sort of thing? And also, what is your take on the open-sourcing of Java? I don't know if you ever actually publicly stated it.

NASHVILLE (WATE) - Seven new canine teams graduated Friday from a Tennessee Highway Patrol program on explosive detection at a special ceremony in Nashville.
The six-week training course focused on teaching the canines to assist their handlers in the detection of explosive materials.
The dogs are taught to demonstrate a passive response by sitting when explosive substances are discovered.
The graduating teams were presented with a certificate and badge at the ceremony.
With the addition of the new graduates, THP now has 31
canines, including 12 drug detectors, 10 explosive detectors, seven on
road patrol, and a cadaver and tracking dog.

Artist of the day: Rose Bauer
These gorgeous cups are brought to you by Rose Bauer. I first met Rose a few years back when I was the visiting artist at the Red Deer College and was helping out with the distance ceramics program co-run by the Australian National University and the Red Deer College. Rose made fantastic work, a bowl of hers with my name on it is still floating around out there somewhere...
These pieces are hand built from Southern Ice Porcelain slip. Unglazed outside with a clear liner glaze. Rose is also a member of INTO Ceramics so look her up to see more work or to inquire about this work.

CHARENTON, LA (WAFB) - A Chitimacha Tribe police officer is dead and two St. Mary Parish Sheriff's deputies are in critical condition after a shooting in the town of Charenton.
Charenton is southeast of New Iberia, about halfway to Morgan City.
The suspected shooter is 48-year-old Wilbert Thibodeaux. He was arrested and is currently in police custody, according to Louisiana State Police spokesman Tpr. Stephen Hammons.
Hammons said the suspect has a gunshot wound around his torso. They are not sure if the wound was self-inflicted or from deputies. Thibodeaux was treated and released from a hospital.
Hammons said the officers responded to neighbors' calls saying a man was walking the streets with a weapon. Hammons said when they arrived on the scene the armed suspect began firing at them. They also discovered a mobile home on fire.
The Chitimacha officer was pronounced dead at the scene. The two injured deputies were taken to hospitals in New Orleans and Lafayette. They are listed in critical condition.
Investigators have not released the names of the deputies.
Hammons said after investigating the incident further, another unidentified person was found dead. Authorities are not sure if the civilian victim died from a gunshot wound or the fire that was believed to be started by the suspect.
A crew is on the scene and will provide more details when they become available. Watch 9News at 6 and 10 for live reports.

Depth is always an issue when deciding on signing a player, but I feel that term is taken in the wrong context.
I feel like a team should only acquire a player if he is better than anyone they have or can bring up. If this is the case, a team is not adding depth, it is making itself better.
in the case of Petr Sykora, it is concerning that his only asset to the team may be "depth". Allow me to explain (I will be brief).
What I am concerned about is whether or not the Devils would scratch Sykora if he is not playing well. Is he only on the roster to play, or will the Devils use him situationally (in certain games)? Will the Devils decide to waive/trade him if Deboer and Lou feel he is not a value to the team instead of "scratching him"?
You see when I see a legitimate argument about the Pros of Petr Sykora, much like the one Matt made earlier today, I believe it is worth signing him if he can be the second line powerplay veteran, or be the player that provides offensive flair to the 3rd line and be the scoring presence needed for developing scoring forwards such as Jacob Josefson. However, when I see someone say "we should sign him because he brings depth", what does that really add to the team?
This raises an issue about player development. If a player like Adam Henrique is playing well in the minors, is that player held up because the Devils do not want to waive/scratch Sykora? To me, if Sykora is not adding anything other than depth, we are in trouble. If Henrique could perform at the same level as Sykora (not arguing that this is realisitc), which one would you want? The obvious answer is Henrique because he is younger and has potential.
My final question then is why would you want Sykora in the first place if a prospect is ready to jump in and take the job? I find that the only way to answer this question is by arguing that "the player brings depth". I consider this a problem.

Legal Foundation for Onondaga Lake Cleanup
Summary: Onondaga Lake Management Plan
The Onondaga Lake Management Plan specifies actions to restore the ecological health and recreational uses of Onondaga Lake.
Onondaga Lake Management Conference
Due to the complexity of the Onondaga Lake system and the continued effect of numerous pollutants, a comprehensive and coordinated approach to the goal of reclamation was required. In response, the U.S. Congress created the Onondaga Lake Management Conference (the predecessor to the Onondaga Lake Partnership) in 1990 (Public Law 101-596, section 401) and charged it to:
(1) Develop a comprehensive revitalization, conservation, and management plan for Onondaga Lake that recommends priority corrective actions and compliance schedules for the cleanup of Onondaga Lake; and
(2) Coordinate the implementation of the plan by the State of New York, the Army Corps of Engineers, USEPA, and all local agencies, governments, and other groups participating in such management conference.
The Plan
The completion of the Onondaga Lake Management Plan represented the fulfillment of the Onondaga Lake Management Conference's prime responsibility. The Plan was intended to be dynamic, to spur action, and to support the Onondaga Lake Management Conference's second responsibility; the coordination of implementation of the recommendations contained in the Plan.
The Onondaga Lake Management Plan contains specific recommendations designed to lead to a cleaner Lake and increased use by the public. Where possible, each recommendation identifies the party that should undertake the effort and provides an estimate of the time frame within which it should be completed.
At the time the Plan was written, it was understood that the problems of Onondaga Lake are extremely complex and their solution would be influenced by a variety of technical, legal, social, and political factors that are in many cases external to the Onondaga Lake Management Conference. As a result, although members of the Conference were confident that Lake revitalization could be accomplished and must be done as rapidly as possible, accurate specification of target time frames for all the recommendations in the Plan was not possible at the time the Plan was developed.
Management Plan and Amended Consent Judgment Relationship
The approval and implementation of the Amended Consent Judgment (ACJ) was consistent with and supportive of the purposes of the Onondaga Lake Management Conference. On September 9, 1999, the Onondaga Lake Management Conference, through Resolution 99-1, approved and endorsed the ACJ and incorporated it into and made it part of its 1993 "A Plan of Action." It was further resolved that any portion of the 1993 Plan that was not consistent with the ACJ was to be removed and deleted.
Amended Consent Judgment
The Onondaga Lake Amended Consent Judgment (ACJ) was signed in January 1998, and stems from a 1989 Judgment on Consent settling litigation between the State of New York, the Atlantic States Legal Foundation (ASLF) and Onondaga County in connection with alleged violations of state and federal water pollution control laws. The conditions of the Judgment on Consent required the County to perform a series of engineering and scientific studies to evaluate the need for upgrading the Metropolitan Sewage Treatment Plant (Metro) and for providing treatment of the combined sewer overflows (CSOs) that occur in the Metro service area.
The Municipal Compliance Plan
Based on the results of those studies and in consultation with NYSDEC and USEPA, the County developed a plan for upgrading the Metro plant and addressing the CSOs. The County submitted the proposed Municipal Compliance Plan (MCP) to the State and ASLF on January 11, 1996.
Following submission of the MCP, there were numerous discussions and negotiations with regard to the proposed MCP. The result was the execution of the ACJ, which was signed in January 1998 by all the partiesNYSDEC, the State Attorney General, ASLF and the County. The provisions of the ACJ resolve a number of controversies that grew from the 1989 Consent Decree, and the ACJ takes the place of what historically has been referred to as the "Municipal Compliance Plan."
The ACJ reflects, to a large extent, the objectives established by a policy resolution passed by the County Legislature in 1995 (Resolution 95-158) that was intended to guide negotiators in developing the Municipal Compliance Plan. The principles outlined in the policy resolution called for a plan based on the "phased implementation" of the various upgrades to Metro and the CSOs, and the measurement of water quality improvements to the lake resulting from each phase of construction.
ACJ Projects
The ACJ is designed to improve the water quality of Onondaga Lake and achieve full compliance with state and federal water quality regulations by December 1, 2012. The ACJ specifically includes a listing of more than thirty projects to be undertaken over a 15-year timeframe. The ACJ describes the intent of each project and sets time schedules for specific work related to each project to be completed (minor and major milestones). These milestones relate to such activities as completion of environmental review, start of construction and commencement of operation.
The ACJ projects can be divided into three main categories:
- Wastewater treatment
- Improvements and upgrades to the County's main sewage treatment plantMetro
- Collection system
- Elimination and/or reduction of the effects of the CSOs on the lake and its tributaries
- Lake and tributary monitoring
- Evaluate the effects of the improvement projects on the water quality of the lake and tributary streams.
ACJ-Management Plan Relationship
On September 9, 1999, the Onondaga Lake Management Conference approved and endorsed the ACJ and incorporated it into and made it part of its 1993 "A Plan of Action," the Onondaga Lake Management Plan. It was further resolved that any portion of the 1993 Plan that was not consistent with the ACJ was to be deleted.

The last race (Arlington Handicap), he finished fifth and he ran huge. He gave a big run to the jockey the last time, Fernando Jara, I learned a lot from that trip."

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Jonas Gustavsson underwent a minor heart ablation procedure in London, Ont., on Friday. The decision to have the procedure was made after Gustavsson was examined earlier in the day by the same medical specialists who treated him in the first half of the 2009-10 season. He can begin workouts in seven days.
Gustavsson was assigned to the AHL Toronto Marlies for conditioning purposes on Feb. 4. His conditioning assignment has been suspended and he has been placed on injured reserve.
Gustavsson has played in 23 games for the Maple Leafs this season with a 6-13-2 record, a 3.29 goals-against average and a save percentage of .890. He is 2-0-0 with a GAA of 0.75 and a .966 save percentage
