Are you an RN looking to expand your horizons, both in how you care for others and how you care for yourself? With a holistic focus and approach, UMA's BS Completion Program (RN-BS) will expose you to new ways of caring, while preparing you for exciting new career opportunities and graduate level study.
RN-BS via hybrid and online course offerings.
Sept 27 & 28. Simard-Payne Park, Lewiston, Maine
Meredith Kendall, MSN, RN, Reiki teacher, and UMA adjunct faculty recently volunteered at the 6th annual Dempsey Challenge. The Challenge is an event to benefit the Patrick Dempsey Center for Cancer Hope & Healing. The Center provides free support services to people with cancer and their caregivers.
Kendall is a member of the Challenge Local Organizing Committee and manages the Reiki and Massage Tent. At Challenge 2014, 37 Reiki practitioners and massage therapists donated over 170 hours and provided 289 sessions to athletes and cancer survivors.
Kendall teaches Reiki at UMA: NUR 425 Hands on Healing.
Every year during the Fall as part of the convocation celebration, UMA announces and honors its rising scholars for the academic year. Rising scholars are recognized for their academic achievement and their scholarly promise. This year's rising scholars in the RN-BS completion program are:
Amy Krawic
Marian Hastings
Suzanne Cole
Alyssa Cloutier
Annette Bowman
Aimee Nason
Kyla Hersehy-Wilson
Stephen Earle Perkins
We extend our congratulations to each of these accomplished nursing students, who are excelling academically and also creating change in their workplaces.
A previous RN-BS completion rising scholar and honors' student, Michael Martin, was selected to speak at the 2014 Convocation Ceremony. The Convocation Ceremony helps to set the tone for the academic year and introduces us to the academic theme of the year, which for 2014-2015 is "innovation" and uses the textbook Outliers by . Michael's speech focused on his own experience with being a patient advocate, and on his personal experience as a part time student in UMA's holistic nursing education program. Michael reminded us that what is most important is creating a meaningful and happy life!
We look forward to a great year of learning as our rising scholars and all RN-BS students engage in a meaningful educational journey this year!
Students in NUR 425 Hands on Healing shared Reiki at the Harold Alfond Center for Cancer Care in July and August, 2014. This service learning experience provided the students the opportunity to communicate and interact as Reiki professionals. Many students reported that it was the most valuable learning opportunity of the class.
Students distributed information handouts to clients and staff and described the procedure prior to the session. Some clients received Reiki in the waiting room and others in recliners as chemotherapy infused. Some staff received Reiki in the integrative medicine treatment room, complete with soothing music; others had quick sessions right at their desks.
The first service learning experience was so well-received by clients and staff, and found to be so valuable to students, that a second experience was incorporated into the class. Many thanks to clients and staff of the Alfond Center, for these remarkable learning opportunities.
People use Reiki to promote overall health and well-being.
Reiki is a practice that originated in Japan around 1920. Reiki is based on the idea that there is universal energy that supports a person's own healing abilities. Practitioners seek to share this energy, promoting relaxation and healing. Reiki is used by people seeking relief from disease-related symptoms and the side effects of conventional medical treatments. Reiki is offered in addition to the treatments and medications prescribed by nurse practitioners and physicians. Reiki is not a substitute for nursing and medical care.
How does it work?
Educated and experienced Reiki practitioners assist people to balance and clear their energy systems. Clients are encouraged to relax, fully clothed, as a practitioner's hands are lightly placed on or near, the head, shoulders, arms, legs, and back. A session usually lasts 5- 30 minutes.
How does it help?
Research shows that Reiki is associated with perceptions of improved sleep and relaxation, decreased pain and stress, and increased happiness. It stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, which calms us down. It is associated with improved immunity, blood pressure, and heart rate. People often report feeling more energetic, light, relaxed, peaceful, or happy.
Is Reiki religion based?
Reiki is a mind- body- spirit modality associated with spirit. However Reiki is not a religion, nor based on any religious beliefs. Reiki practitioners come from many different religions; people of all faiths are welcome to learn or experience Reiki. Reiki is supports a person's spirit.
How much does it cost?
Reiki students from the University of Maine at Augusta will come to the Harold Alfond Center for Cancer Care to share Reiki on Monday, Aug 11 from 1 pm til 3 pm. These Reiki sessions are free.

UMA has a student American Holistic Nurses' Association (AHNA) Club. This group is also recognized by the National AHNA organization as a student-faculty chapter. AHNA is active on campus by holding events that support learning opportunities related to holism in nursing. The club holds meetings on the first Thursday of each month, from 11:45- 1 pm in the civic center student lounge. On the third Thursday of each month, a learning event is delivered to the campus community. Any and all interested UMA students are invited to join this club and participate in the meetings and events!
In September, the AHNA club held our first community-learning event. Dr. Dustin Sulak from Maine Integrative Healthcare provided us with education on the use of medical cannabis and how it relates to the healing process. Approximately 50 students and faculty learned about the body's own endocannibinoid system and the evidence base related to how medical cannabis supports healing and palliation of many illnesses and stress-related symptoms. Participants also learned about Maine's medical cannabis laws and the prescribing process.
Dr. Sulak stayed after the presentation to answer student questions and provide personal support. His compassion, knowledge, and caring attitude provided us with a fine example of a holistic practitioner with a great commitment toward supporting the healing process of patients in need.
If you missed the presentation or want to learn more about this topic, please visit the Maine Integrative Healthcare website:
On May 7, 2014, we held our annual Senior Celebration Ceremony honoring our 12 RN- BSN graduates. Each student was honored through participating in the Nightingale Candlelighting Ceremony, a tradition that has been passed on to us from Nursing's Living Legend Dr. Jean Watson. Two distinguished students were also honored: Shelia Roy, BSN, RN and Denise Worcester, BSN RN. Ms. Roy was recognized for her role modeling of self-care and her ability to create meaningful change in her practice setting. Ms. Worcester was also recognized for her self-care efforts, service to UMA through being a student representative to the nursing program meetings, and capacity for leadership. Ms. Worcester recently published her leadership paper entitled "Burnout and the registered nurse: The implications of leadership style" in the ANA Maine Journal Spring 2014 edition. The article can be read here: http://www.nursingald.com/uploads/publication/pdf/1016/Maine_Nurse_5_14.pdf
All of the graduating students presented their final projects from the Senior Seminar Capstone class, with the topics ranging from adverse childhood events and the potential impact these have on the profession of nursing, to whistleblowing in the clinical setting. Additionally, the students shared their work around self-care. In the capstone course, the students are learn about the work of the Henry-Benson Institute around the importance of the relaxation response and in addition to setting measurable self-care goals, the students focus on learning about mindfulness practices for health and healing.
Congratulations to the graduating class of 2014! We look forward to learning about your future endeavors as leaders in the holistic nursing field!

A few weeks ago, gamers across the country were shocked at the devotion of a Connecticut man who was shot and hospitalized during his wait for the PS3. Such a man must be extremely devoted to video games to risk his life for the latest next-gen system, right?
Wrong. A follow-up article by the Worcester Telegram & Gazette reveals that 21-year-old Michael Penkala was waiting "not because he's a fan of the popular game system but because he saw a business opportunity." The unemployed Penkala, whose "only means of income at the moment is selling T-shirts, Beanie Babies and New England Patriots plush toys on his front lawn," was carrying $2,600 in cash to purchase four PS3s to resell on eBay (with the help of three friends waiting in line).
What's more, after being shot by the fleeing would-be robbers, Penkala's first instinct was to make sure his friends got the money to purchase the systems. "For some reason I wasn't thinking about my wound, I was all about those PlayStations," Penkala is quoted as saying.
The eBay proceeds from the four PS3s Penkala eventually picked up likely won't cover the hundreds of thousands of dollars in health care costs for the uninsured Penkala. Despite this, Penkala rejected the idea of pimping out his auctions as "the system he got shot for." Classy.

What do you think of preachers turning the world's songs into church songs?
New Orleans: These street musicians, Tanya and Dorise make more money on the street than they would in a club (they say) and so that's where they play most of the time. They are incredible!
The charge?
Solicitation of animals on Craigslist.
YES…you read it right. No, you need not check your eyeglasses or adjust your contacts. And no, you are not high.
Jerry Hall was arrested and released on $1,000 bail for solicitation of an animal for sex.
Of course he is innocent until proven guilty in America but he has some explaining to do….such as why did he meet the undercover officer in the place where he planned to meet him?
Protect your animals, everyone just as you protect your children. This is happening more and more often. Scriptures call it bestiality.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Palwa Dumaguete
Before moving into my apartment in Bacolad I spent a few nights at the Hotel Palwa downtown. What a nice place for the economical price of $21 a night. The room was old but cozy. Shopping, sightseeing, immigration, the waterfront, and many places to eat were just a short walk away!!

So I found a little place in Dauin, a beach house 20 minutes south of Dumaguete. I arranged through the hotel to get a car to take me there. Air conditioning is a must right now do me.

This was far better than the lake(s) In the evening I joined a table with a lot of English people and a nice Argentinian girl and Swedish guy. My throat was still hurting so I wasn't doing much talking. Seb told me to drink warm salty water which helped the pain for little bit.

Oil and currency markets reflect expectations for lower global economic growth ›
Since August, both crude oil and currency markets have been influenced by lower economic growth expectations in countries outside the United States. Prices in both markets recently broke out of established trading ranges, driven by concerns about weaker future global demand. The current situation, with the dollar index and oil prices moving in opposite directions, presents a sharp contrast to one in which crude oil supply disruptions or geopolitical risks would cause both the dollar index and crude prices to rise.

Inform To Power Site Search, Content Aggregation For Major Publishers
According to the Wall Street Journal (subscription required), "Inform Technologies LLC, which is based in New York, said 16 online publications plan to include its new search function. Among them are WashingtonPost.Newsweek Interactive's Newsweek.com and Conde Nast's Portfolio.com."
Inform began life a couple of years ago as a consumer destination site and news aggregator. Failing to gain traction (partly because it was too complex), it more recently reinvented itself as a publisher site search and platform provider.
The idea behind using Inform's technology is to provide better on-site search and related news/content search from third-party sites. That potentially turns all the Inform-powered sites into news aggregators themselves. The aspiration is to provide a better user experience and more utility and boost page views, which in turn means more ad revenue for publishers.

DLR has its headquarters in Cologne. The site is located next to Cologne-Bonn airport. Approximately 1,500 employees work in the institutes and facilities and in the central administration.
Before going into hibernation at 01:36 CET on 15 November 2014, the Philae lander was able to conduct some work using power supplied by its primary battery. With its 10 instruments, the mini laboratory sniffed the atmosphere, drilled, hammered and studied Comet 67P/ Churyumov-Gerasimenko while over 500 million kilometres from Earth.
In 1969, Svetlana Gerasimenko and Klim Churyumov discovered the comet that the Philae lander will descend to on 12 November 2014.
The Philae lander on board the Rosetta spacecraft has been en route to its destination, Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, since 2 March 2004. On 12 November 2014, it will be released from its mother craft at an altitude of 22.5 kilometres above the comet and – if everything goes according to plan – will touch down on the surface of the comet about seven hours later.
Egyptian history has been explored, new words invented and appropriate comparisons sought for; a total of about 8300 suggestions for Philae's landing site on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko were received at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR), the French Space Agency (Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales; CNES) the Italian Space Agency (Agenzia Spaziale Italiana; ASI) and the European Space Agency (ESA).

Brad Rock: Whether it's Utah's Larry Krystkowiak or BYU's Bronco Mendenhall, thinking big is OK
Tom Smart, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — At 6 foot 9, Larry Krystkowiak appears slim and strong enough to still be playing basketball at age 49. So when he says the Utes can win the Pac-12 tournament, it's hard to picture anyone arguing.
At least not to his face.
Everywhere else is fair game.
The Utes wrapped up their home schedule on Saturday with a 75-64 win over Colorado. That made them 18-2 at the Huntsman Center, their best home record since 2004-05 when they went 17-0. That year they reached the Sweet 16.
There's no talk of a Sweet 16 appearance this year, not even from the Ute coach, who has raised eyebrows for saying his team can claim the conference's automatic invitation to the NCAA tournament.
"I plan on winning the (Pac-12) tournament in Vegas and we don't have to talk about any selection committee or anything like that," he said last week.
It's never too soon to get some good mojo going.
Still, Krystkowiak is fairly rare among coaches, in that he is good at directly answering questions. If they didn't play well, he says it. Same when he's worried about tendencies like road meltdowns.
So why tippy-toe around his aspirations?
"I'm not being boastful or anything," he said on Saturday. "I mean, we've played everybody in our league, with the exception of the teams we're going to play (this week). But I think you can get a pretty good sense league is wide open. I've got as good reason to believe we're going to win it as anybody else does."
Realistically, it has been an easy schedule outside the Pac-12. Utah's nonconference slate was rated the second easiest in the country. His first six games were at home, so there were six wins to start. The early lineup: Evergreen State, Cal-Davis, Grand Canyon, Lamar, Savannah State and Ball State. Later came Idaho State, Texas State and St. Katherine — the school, not the person.
At least that's the story the Utes are sticking to.
At the same time, Krystkowiak's strategy seemed to have worked. Utah's only home losses in conference were against Oregon and Arizona in overtime, when both were ranked in the top 10.
Barring a couple of horrendous late-game mistakes, the Utes could have had an undefeated home season.
Which brought them to Saturday's home finale against Colorado, a nice 20-9 team, even without injured star Spencer Dinwiddie. Coming off a 23-point rout of Arizona State, the Utes should have been positively brilliant — which they were during a mid-game stretch in which they outscored the Buffaloes 23-2.
Colorado missed 10 of 11 shots and turned the ball over eight times during the same run.
Graduating big man Renan Lenz was acknowledged pregame and the Brazilian national anthem was played in his honor.
Whatever the language, the Utes were talking the talk and walking the walk.
The problem isn't what Krystkowiak said regarding his postseason chances, it's that often "belief" or "intention" gets interpreted as "prediction." Krystkowiak said he expects the Utes will win the tournament, he didn't declare it.
"I believed that way — call me crazy, but two years ago I thought we were going to win (the) conference tournament," he said. "We played Colorado right down the wire and Colorado ended up being champs of league that year. So there's no reason for me to believe we can't. ... I think we'd all be in the wrong business if we can't ... "
If you can't think big.
This isn't entirely different from BYU football coach Bronco Mendenhall saying he expected the Cougars to contend for national titles. He made no predictions, just announced his intentions.
That's not the worst thing someone can do.
Thinking big is how we Americans roll.
At the same time, the Utes haven't shown that they can win more than random road games. They are 1-8 when they leave the house. Utah reached the semifinals of the conference tournament last year, with a worse team, on a neutral court.
Sometime during the invention of coachspeak, it was decided that it's bad to speak of the future in a truly optimistic light. Long before that, French philosopher Rene Descartes said, "I think, therefore I am."
He should have said, " and I'm going to talk about it, too."

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham
"LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham" is the next instalment to the blockbuster LEGO "Batman: The Videogame" and "LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes" videogames.
What did you think of Henry Cavill in "Immortals"?
For most of us, the film "Immortals" is our first real opportunity to get a look at Henry Cavill as an actor before we see him in "Man of Steel".
Nearly half the people who responded to this poll haven't seen the film yet, but plan to see it at some point (probably when it comes out on DVD or airs on TV). I actually voted in this category myself, but then managed to get out to the cinema on the weekend to see the movie, so you can add one more vote to the "He was great!" selection, which received the majority of the votes from people who have seen the film.
A small percentage of people also voted for "He was good", while only a couple of people voted in the Average and below categories.
Interestingly, nearly a quarter of votes haven't seen "Immortals" and don't plan to. I guess I can understand that, it was a pretty violent and graphic film, so it may not be to everyone's liking.
Here's the breakdown:
He was great!
21% [28 Votes]
He was good
7% [9 Votes]
1% [2 Votes]
He wasn't very good

Maxwell lawsuit seeks McCarty disqualification, alleges felony
McCarty says sales tax was paid 'months and months ago'
A lawsuit has been filed by Fayette County Commissioner Eric Maxwell seeking the disqualification from office of J. Allen McCarty, who defeated Maxwell for his Post 5
commission seat in July and is poised to take office Jan. 1.
The lawsuit claims that McCarty in 2003 failed to pay $3.398.75 in state and local option sales taxes, but McCarty said Wednesday afternoon that he paid the tax in full "months and months" ago and has a receipt to prove it. The taxes, McCarty said, were due on a motor home he had purchased in Nevada under the belief that he would not have to pay Georgia
sales taxes.
A copy of the state tax filing against McCarty has been provided to The Citizen, but McCarty chided Maxwell for not checking to see that the state had removed the lien from his property after making the final payment installment. McCarty said he would consider providing The Citizen of copy of the receipt tomorrow, though he may hold onto it until the matter gets into court.
"They removed the liens from the property, which means it was paid, and they should have been smart enough to check that," McCarty said.
Maxwell contends that since courthouse documents show McCarty failed to remit the sales taxes that he collected on behalf of the state, he is considered "the illegal holder of public funds payable to the State of Georgia" and therefore under Georgia law is unqualified to hold public office.
The state tax document provided to The Citizen indicates that McCarty owed $3,398.75 in principal and with interest, penalties and fees the amount ballooned to $8,950 as of the filing of the Georgia Department of Revenue's State Tax Execution in February 2009.
In the suit, filed late Tuesday afternoon in Fayette County Superior Court, Maxwell is also seeking an injunction to prevent McCarty from taking office until a final order is issued in conjunction with the suit.
The lawsuit by Maxwell also accuses McCarty of "the crime of false swearing," a felony, on two dates in April when he qualified to run for office and declared his candidacy with an affidavit under oath or affirmation.
In addition to seeking a court order disqualifying McCarty from holding office, Maxwell is also asking the court for an order ruling that McCarty was unqualified to be a Republican candidate in the July 20 primary, which presumably would leave Maxwell as the office holder since he was the only other qualified candidate in that race.
Maxwell is also seeking to invalidate the results of the post 5 commission seat in the Nov. 2 primary and also to have the individual with the most write-in votes in the Nov. 2 election to be declared the winner. There were 549 write-in votes submitted via electronic polling machines in that race, and elections officials will have to comb through another 2,002 paper ballots to determine who got the most write-in votes, said Fayette County Elections Supervisor Tom Sawyer.
Maxwell is also asking for McCarty to be forced to pay the costs of the lawsuit "and the cost of a new election if required by this Court."
McCarty bested Maxwell with 7,544 votes to Maxwell's 6,346 in the Republican primary.
Maxwell said today that he found out about the tax execution that was issued against McCarty the day after the Nov. 2 general election.
McCarty said the lawsuit is "retribution" for the lawsuit that is being filed against the commissioners on behalf of the West Fayetteville Bypass Coalition, of which McCarty is a member over the construction of the second phase of the bypass.
"Not to mention that I beat him in the election, which I'm sure didn't sit well," McCarty said.
The only mistake here is Eric Maxwell. We will see what tomorrow brings.
If Eric is doing this to stop Steve Brown from being Chairman, then I fully support his action.
I don't think the people of the county really understand who they've elected, and it's going to take a couple of years to realize the mistake(s) that was made.
Time will reveal this error.
30yearresident is correct. Eric is trying to keep Brown away from being Chairman and many people don't yet realize what they voted for. Highly unlikely that it will take a couple of years for Brown to show his true colors. My guess is that it will happen during the first month, possibly even at the first meeting. You have to give Eric credit for this move. He is looking out for the county even though he is a lame duck.
Eric is "looking out for" Eric, Ken Steele, the WFB/Parkway, and the developers. It would really be interesting to see what could be found if we started mucking around in Eric's closet. We will see!
This is just more Maxwell, Smith and Steele back room politics.
Guess that explains why he has not produced a receipt for the Citizen to publish. I wonder if he paid the ad valorem taxes on his RV or registered it in Florida to avoid the taxes.
Did he pay the ad valorem taxes---tch, tch, tch.
That law is kinda like the one about horse manure on the street!
Also, creates such things as occurred recently that compares to our torture of so-called terrorists (maybe so, maybe not--torture will tell as it did in the Inquisition--which it didn't!
Mr. Putin of Russia and a senior cohort of his said yesterday that a group of assassins had already been sent out from Russia to kill the double spy who told us of the planted 10 spys, including th sexy blonde slut.
They feel now if we can do such things, so can they!
A review of Fayette courthouse records (available on the internet) shows the following:
(1) A tax lien dated 2/27/09 was filed on 4/15/09 and recorded at Lien Book 97, Page 92, showing a tax execution by the Georgia Revenue Commissioner for $8,950.13 against Jesse A. McCarty, of 163 Lees Mill Rd, Fayetteville, for state sales tax (including local option) due in April 2003. The original tax is shown as $3398.75, with interest of $2939.17, a penalty of $1099.69, collection fee of $1487.52, and court costs of $25. As of Nov. 11, 2010 the courthouse records do not show this as canceled.
(2) A similar tax lien was filed on 7/11/07 at Book 80 Page 338 and canceled at Book 83 Page 271 on 11/18/07 for 2002 income tax of $39, escalated to $107.36 (with $19.89 interest, $9.75 penalty, $13.72 collection fee, and $25 costs).
(3) A similar tax lien was filed on 7/11/07 at Book 80 Page 337 and canceled at Book 85 Page 587 on 3/5/08 for 2001 income tax (joint) of $527, escalated to $1213.91 (with $332.01 interest, $131.75 penalty, $198.15 collection fee, and $25 costs).
A canceled lien is a sign it has been paid.
A non-canceled lien may or may not have been paid, but a lawyer looking for a clear title for a client (buyer or lender) when real property is being sold or borrowed against would see that as a red flag and insist steps be taken to have the lien canceled in the court clerk's records.
Please inform us as to the consequences of someone buying a trailer as a private citizen and charging the buyer government sales tax, but not turning the tax in to the state.
Is that illegal,
#1 to even collect it and,
#2 if collected, not forward it on the proper monthly tax form?
Is this sort of tax treated differently than private income tax lateness?
"tax lien dated 2/27/09 was filed on 4/15/09 and recorded at Lien Book 97, Page 92, showing a tax execution by the Georgia Revenue Commissioner for $8,950.13 against Jesse A.

As of Nov. 11, 2010 the courthouse records do not show this as canceled."
Well, that explains how the interest and penalties could accrue so much since the bill goes back to 2003. Since it was shown as not being canceled, I guess desperate Maxwell saw an opportunity to at least publically embarrass McCarty or worse. Both are clowns.
---Certainly tells us more about the (im-)maturity and (missed) demeanor of Eric Maxwell...
Than anyone or anything "alleged" in this (FAIL!)lawsuit.
END = of political career.
Who could possibly support him running for landfill supervisor or dog catcher after this stunt???
(--with apologies to our fine staff at the county animal control shelter)
You serve me And I'll serve you Swing your partners, all get screwed Bring your lawyer And I'll bring mine Get together, and we could have a bad time -
George Harrison
I don't understand what John Munford is saying. He says "Maxwell contends that since courthouse documents show McCarty failed to remit the sales tax he collected on behalf of the state, he is considered an illegal holder of public funds payable to the State of Georgia".
It almost seems as though McCarty was in the RV business and sold one for which he collected sales tax, but did not pay it to the state. Is Maxwell misquoted, is the article poorly written, or is paying one's sales tax late the same thing as collecting money?
I think most folks would be much clearer on the issue if some of you fine readers or Mr. Munford could enlighten us on what constitutes receiving sales taxes when you're the buyer of an RV.
Hey, maybe Mr. Maxwell has set a precedent that anyone paying their taxes late is automatically a felon, and should be sent to prison. Maybe all this could be cleared up if it could be shown where Mr. McCarty got his hands on public funds. It looks to me that all he did was pay back more than three times what he initially owed.
Another wrinkle is what it was in the affidavit that he allegedly violated. Is there a statement somewhere in there that you can't run for commissioner if you've ever been late on your taxes?
Maxwell has aspired to become a judge. How will this action affect public opinion about his qualifications? If the case goes to court, I'd demand a change of venue.
Any private individual who sells a lawnmower, a jack knife, or anything else to another private citizen is not set up to either collect or rescind
a sales tax on the trade!
What may have happened was: A price was agreed to for the unit, then the seller asked for Georgia sales taxes also.
If you know anyone who hasn't sold something to another, a neighbor,etc., and collected sales tax---be quiet!
Now being late on your personal taxes gets you a small penalty, but not forwarding or paying withholding taxes of any sort gets a lock on your business if you have one.
That is theft from the individual and the government.
Now, you tell me what really happened!
First they get Steele to knock off Haddix then they're after McCarty.
The scum is trying to rise to the top again!!! AND WE WONDER WHY WE NEED A TEA PARTY MOVEMENT!!!
Really glad I wrote in cyclist for this post and neither of these two chumps. Maxwell had ethical issues, a pretty sorry voting record, big buddies with Susan Brown, and is an all-around jerk. Unknown McCarty hitched his wagon to Steve Brown of all people and seems to have allowed a less than 4K tax bill to accumulate enough interest and fines over time to make it 9K and gets a lien slapped against him by the state....just the kind of person FC needs in office! Sheesh.
At the time, there was no even remotely decent choice with these two clowns running and now it looks even worse than before. Same goes for the Smith-Brown race, but even that one wasn't as pitiful as Maxwell v. McCarty
Cowetaman is right. But Nuk is wrong.
Sure McCarty hitched his wagon to Brown. But the two of them were actually listening to the people of Fayette County. Maxwell was just being a jerk. Don't blame anyone for Maxwell's loss but Eric Maxwell.
If McCarty paid the tax bill what is the problem??? This is just typical low down dirty Eric Maxwell politics. He'll do anything to get that road to nowhere bypass built.
I do believe that Maxwell, Smith and Steele would sell their dear old grandmothers if it would get that road built.
Grandma and the road are both safe.
The Maxwell suit has no chance of keeping McCarty out of office, but it could delay his swearing in. So, why do that? Well, for one thing it pretty much guarantees that Frady will be elected County Commission Chairman at their first meeting in January. With only 4 commissioners seated, he's the only one with 3 votes. If McCarty were seated at that first meeting, Brown could actually get elected chairman (by flipping Horgan) - and with that comes a seat on RTR at DOT. Not that RTR controls the WFB, but Maxwell (who is certainly not stupid) knows the damage Brown could do in his endless manhunt for developers. So he (and others) have concluded this is a good way to limit Brown's power.
Make sense? Got a better explanation for the lawsuit?
So let's just hope that it works.
What does Maxwell get out of it?
What does "his endless manhunt for developers." mean exactly?
Well, I think the dead guy was saying that Steve Brown is on an endless manhunt for developers because he sees them as the ultimate evil beings that are responsible for all that ails us (WFB, TDK extension, AIDS, MRSA, etc. Just kidding on the last two...I think) And battling developers is his excuse for all of his political mischief. Anyone who disagrees with Stevo is called a developer, in the pocket of developers, friend of developers, etc. What does Maxwell get out of slowing down McCarty from taking office? According to RWM, it will prevent him from being seated at the time the commissioners elect their chair, and reduce the likelyhood of Steve Brown being elected to that seat. And I gather that is an outcome that Maxwell must want. I don't know him, but I'm guessing that he has no love for Mr. Brown. Lots of people don't, thanks to Steve's inablility to work well with others and build any kind of consensus.
Meaning a better idea why Maxwell filed this lawsuit? As we know, Eric knows what brown is and despises him. The best thing about Eric losing is that he won't have to sit next to Brown. The new guy McCarty attached himself to Brown from the get go and this was very smart because you got 2 anti-incumbent votes bundled together in a clearly anti-incumbent year and that pairing took the spotlight off of Brown's extreme failure as mayor/bounty hunter for developers.
Nevertheless, I see no logical reason for this lawsuit - I mean it is desined for failure and Eric knows that. Therefore the reason must be something else and the something else that I picked is to delay a Brown ally from being seated at the first meeting which will keep Brown away from the chairman's seat. What else makes more sense than that?
The man is as transparent as glass. He doesn't know how to operate from a level playing field. The term "typical jive turkey politician" comes to mind.
I guess this could be depending on what the court does, but just the court calendar would work against this notion. This case could take a year depending on delays by both sides, etc. This doesn't count the appeals that would likely occur if McCarty was convicted. If Mr. Maxwell attempted to stop Mr. McCarty from being sworn and he was later found innocent, Mr. Maxwell would look pretty...well you could think of a multitude of adjectives.
A simple threat of a lawsuit shouldn't delay either McCarty being sworn or voted on as chair.
It has to do with something else, like ego, spite, or simply not thinking. We have all seen letters from Mr. Maxwell in this very paper early in the campaign that were not very well thought out and small minded.
I believe it won't help him with locals and his law practice. So, I am as perplexed as you are.
I'm not blaming anyone or anything for Maxwell losing besides his own flaws and voting record. My point is that his replacement is a complete one-issue unknown who already has a cloud hanging over his head, which is how long do you let a simple tax bill accumulate so much interest and penalties that it ends up being close to 3x what the bill originally was for and he says it was paid "months ago" yet the lien was placed on him in Feb of 2009, meaning he waited for "many months" to get around to paying it. Maybe.
I wouldn't mind seeing neither Maxwell or McCarty in office, believe me. BALD CYCLIST!
Georgia law prohibits anyone from running as a write-in candidate unless they have filed an affidavit with the county's election board by the first Tuesday in September. Additionally, it prohibits anyone from running as a write-in candidate that ran for the same office in the primary. Mr. Maxwell, by Georgia law, can not be the winner of the election even if he received the most write-in votes because he was not qualified to do so. Georgia has the most strict laws in the country on write-in candidates.
Mr. Maxwell needs to go back to law school and learn GA Code.
Let me state up front, I don't know either of these gentlemen and don't have a dog in this fight. As for the timing of Maxwell's filing, who knows when he really found out but it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. And if in fact the allegations against McCarty are true and he is not legally entitled to hold the office then so be it. Let the court do it's job and sort this all out.
It is very sad when some do not want to accept the election. We had one Mr Maxwell, you lost. Please be a good looser and stop.
Don't forget, Eric, you still need to make a living in the same community that you've insulted. People around here don't admire someone who is only kind and respectful to those that can do something for them.
If you accept my premise above that Eric is only doing this to take away what could possibly be the deciding vote to make Brown county commission chair during the first meeting in January, it will make him a local hero and his legal business will prosper. Get that "I Sue" license plate polished. You da man!
Eric, you have been a disappointment. You slid in at the end of the Randall Johnson era by pretending to be someone you've proven you're not. You and Jack Smith have been given your walking papers for your horrible treatment toward Fayette County citizens who had the gall to question the by-pass. Your practice would have been far healthier had you not decided to run for office and show your true self. Now, you and your buddy Jack are besmirching what little reputation you've managed to acrue. Never, in the history of Fayette County, have the citizens had such a rapid confirmation that they voted the right person into office, and the right person out. Well, not since Greg Dunn, who you have actually come close to making look a lot better. I can't understand why you would want to occupy an office when the majority of the citizens have said that they don't want you. Just go away, we know what you are, now.
Whaaaaa I don't have a job now because I was disrespectful to the people I worked for ( the taxpayers).
maxwell we voted you out get over it. You signed your own walking papers when you laughed at the family that is losing their farm to the by- pass to nowhere . Your snide nasty remark of "be careful crossing the road to get to your well" did it. You are a typical low life scum sucking pig, in other words a perfect liar/politician. Go crawl back under whatever sewer you crawled out of. It shouldn't be to hard for you since you are so low to the ground.
I don't know where you two think you can speak for all of Fayette County!
Eric simply speaks in plain English to someone who wants special considerations, rather than say what he doesn't really mean just to console someone. Sometimes there no longer is time for such acts.
Not many of you "do nothings" out there would even consider working as hard as does Eric.
We need more plain-talkers to counter-act a few BSers, and butter-uppers around.
Many of us despise Hypocrisy!
A fair is a place you go to eat cotton candy and get sick on the rides.
The taxpayers and the citizens who took the time to vote are plain spoken also, and we have spoken. We don't need sorry politicians who forget whom they work for.
So you despise hypocrisy--how about civility? No time for that either huh? Maxwell apparently ran out of time for that too and it cost him but he apparently can't handle it. If all the accusations are true, pray tell me why, as a lawyer, he couldn't ferret that out PRIOR to the Primary & General Election?
So....perhaps Eric had the forethought to have friends neighbors and cronies WRITE HIM IN on the ballot for the Commission Post in the general election. Why would he do that? Did he have a VISION that something was wrong, terribly terribly wrong in Fayette County?
I am sure he didnt have this information before the election, no way! It is so fortunate that he had his VISION! Kinda funny how he will end up being the winner as a non-publicized write in candidate when this scandal broke just days AFTER the election.
Ah.....but, jeez....what will happen to Eric when this is all exposed and the information he filed his suit on proved to be, er, untrue.....
We dont care. Get that through your head. A typical lawyer wasting time and money.
Does this crap ever end?
Surely, a fine draw for potential new business to our county.
It seems there are no gentlemen left in public service.
If Mr. Maxwell attempts to evade the will of the people, he may lose not only his lawsuit but he could lose much of his law practice through loss of local popular respect.
What is so important about this office that he risks this?
It can't be merely ego.....can it?
Only Mr. Maxwell knows.
in office. I will say that. Not that I think Maxwell should be there either...
Maybe there is more to the story.
Tax cheating is in the eye of the beholder.
I am certain that if a good IRS agent had the opportunity to pour over your returns, he would find that you "cheated" somewhere down the line.
None of us are immune to the tax collector.
Withholdings from salaried people. The State/Feds don't take kindly at all to not getting their money.
Frankly, if he does owe the money, I think it should be cleared up before he votes on a single thing on the Counties behalf..
This is different than deciding if something is "deductible" or not. I'm no defender of the IRS at all. I don't see this as an IRS issue.
IF he's being falsely accused by Maxwell, I would expect to hear it from the horses mouth.
but not OK to have a doobie in your truck. I get it now.
Sounds to me like the "Sore Loser Syndrome" has struck again!
Maxwell needs to grow up and get over his loss in the election.
My guess is that he was also pretty diligent about paying the ad valorem taxes on the vehicle.
My guess is that he was also pretty diligent about paying the ad valorem taxes on the vehicle.
There was a time when I had a great deal of respect for Eric Maxwell and Jack Smith. That time is most definitely past.
That time passed in 2007 in comments you made before knowing the facts. You shoot from the hip.
If a current emcubent in any election was behind or had avoided his taxes, that information would fill the pages on these blogs.
This is an example of the anti-encumbent feelings regardless of how un-ethical newbees might be. No matter what prejudice you hold towards the current Commission; you have to realize Maxwell's no dummy. There's probably more to this.
Sorry mbest-- from the looks of this piece of garbage he filed, Maxwell IS a dummy. What are you his partner ?
2007? Shooting from the hip? That's GREAT - only one mistake in three years! Please elaborate and share with the others here.
I would wait for all the "back taxes" facts to come out if I were you.
McCarthy may (or may not) have achieved victory by riding an anti incumbent wave but one thing is for sure; Smith and Maxwell got their own butts kicked out for good solid reasons.
Give Eric Maxwell a do-over.....I truly enjoyed watching him get his ass kicked 2-1 by an complete newcomer. LOL...Yeah, "I Sue"... Let's do it again.

BOSTON -- Roberto Luongo, along with his brother, literally wrote the book -- actually a couple of them -- on goaltending
The titles for each begin with The 10 Quickest Ways, which seems all so appropriate these days as the Vancouver Canucks goalie has lost the confidence of an entire city in the span of the past two games of the Stanley Cup Finals. Many of those who piled into Rogers Arena to watch Wednesday's Game 4 on the video boards cheered as Luongo was pulled late in the 4-0 loss to the Boston Bruins.
|Canucks-Bruins: Game 4
A.J. Perez
The Canucks are suddenly shaky after ugly losses in Boston -- and need to find their mojo fast. Read >>

"Right now, we are obviously not getting the breaks," Luongo said. "It's just a matter of staying focused. ... We would have liked to win one game here, but we worked hard all year to get home-ice advantage so this is where it's going to serve its purpose. We want to make sure we get playing the way we did in the first two home games and establish a good tempo and take it to them."
Luongo allowed 12 goals on 58 shots in Games 3 and 4 after he stopped 63 of 65 shots as Vancouver opened the Finals with consecutive wins. Not all the goals should be laid at the crease of Luongo -- there was at least one deflection off his own player in Game 4 and his defense did him few favors -- but his rep as a big-game goalie is again in question.
He has been yanked in three games this postseason and even started a first-round game on the bench in favor of rookie Cory Schneider. Meanwhile, Boston goalie Tim Thomas -- who has yet to sit a second on the bench minus the times he has been pulled for an extra attacker -- has quieted whatever critics he had knocking his comparably unorthodox style with his third playoff shutout.
"Everybody has to do a better job," Canucks forward Maxim Lapierre said. "Lou was there for us all series. He's doing a good job for us. We can't look at those two games. We have to find a positive."
Well, Schneider did stop all nine shots he faced in Game 4. (When you get outscored 12-1 in your first two road games of the Finals, positives are hard to come.) While Canucks coach Alain Vigneault did sit Luongo in the first round as the Canucks let a 3-0 series lead to the Blackhawks slip away, he told reporters on Thursday that he's sticking with Luongo --- at least for the start of Game 5.
"I just felt at that time with Chicago there was a special situation," Vigneault said. "The fact that we had lost twice to them before in the playoffs and felt that we needed to change momentum a little bit. My gut at that time told me that putting Schneids in was the thing to do. There is one thing, Roberto is the guy, he's my guy and he's playing. It's that simple."
Sorry disgruntled Canucks fans.
"We're the last show in town right now," Canucks forward Manny Malhotra said. "The whole hockey world is watching. There are going to be so many opinions. The harshest criticism and the only one that matters are going to come from this room. They are going say what they want about us."
Luongo didn't fare well in his lone start after he was pulled. He allowed four goals on 12 shots and lasted all of 21 minutes in a Game 5 loss to 'Hawks. (He didn't start Game 6, but did come into the game in relief after Schneider was forced out with cramps.) In a position where what's happening between one's ears greatly affects what takes place between the pipes, where is Luongo's mojo at this point?
Henrik Sedin, for one, isn't concerned.
"He can [recover]," the Canucks captain said. "He's been so good for us. Thomas has been strong through the playoffs, too. If you're a top goalie like they are, you're going to bounce back. We have a lot of trust in Lou. He's showed up for us every game. He's going to show up next game as well."
Maybe this can all be explained away as some bad luck on the road (visiting teams are 2-15 in the Finals since 2009). The pucks that have bounded off Luongo's lanky 6-foot-3, pad-clad frame and into the net the past six periods could suddenly deflect harmlessly away once again.
By the mere fact that the Canucks' top-ranked blue line has shrunk due to injury (Dan Hamhuis) and suspension (Aaron Rome), Luongo will have to get better. Quick.
