FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 20, 2012
Today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer called on the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) Secretary Eric Shinseki to organize a high level meeting between Schumer and Veterans Affairs officials in Washington D.C. to craft an immediate plan to finalize the establishment of a veterans cemetery in Western New York, a project that the senator has long fought for that, Schumer says, has been delayed for too long due to a lack of focus and execution. Schumer's push to iron out a concrete timeline follows reports in early March 2012 that the VA had not found a viable cemetery site among those being considered over the previous year in Western New York. At that time, Schumer called on the Department to put forward a strict and expedited timeline to ensure that the veterans cemetery avoids further delay.
The March 2nd announcement, in which the VA announced it will conduct yet a third site solicitation to canvas for new potential sites, delays the timeline for this critical project by another 12 to 15 months for due diligence and acquisition, all without any assurance of success. This announcement reverses progress made in March 2011, when the VA announced their plans to visit six potential veterans cemetery sites in Western New York, followed by the determination to further evaluate at least two of the sites for its "due diligence" phase. Given this additional and avoidable setback, Schumer demanded that high level VA officials meet with him and make this veterans cemetery in Western New York a priority, as it is for the hundreds of thousands of veterans from Rochester to Buffalo. The continued failure to acquire the necessary land for the cemetery, delays the design and building phase that will ultimately lead to a suitable resting place for Western New York veterans.
"We are done with the delays and the do-overs; Western New York veterans have earned a cemetery and the VA needs to step up to the plate and spell out in precise detail how – and when – we are going to make this happen," said Schumer, the long-time champion of this effort. "Constructing a veterans cemetery in Western New York has been at the top of the priority list for hundreds of thousands of veterans and their advocates for years, yet this critical project has been met with Veteran Affairs' delays, restarts and excuses time and time again. At this point, enough is enough, and I am calling on Secretary Shinseki to organize a high-level meeting and get everyone on board so that we can cut through the bureaucratic red tape and find the long-awaited burial ground that Western New York's brave heroes so greatly deserve. The VA's announcement for a third site solicitation earlier this month indicates that they are back to the drawing board more than a year and a half later, and this is absolutely unacceptable. I am urging Secretary Shinseki to help iron out a concrete plan, with a strict timeline, so that this project can not only avoid further delays but actually be expedited."
The VA's March 2nd announcement of a third site solicitation comes a year after a March 2011 announcement in which the VA outlined the firm schedule for site selection that Schumer had strongly lobbied for. In late March, the VA visited six potential locations, and the officials assessed which sites best fit the VA's criteria, which included factors such as the site's topography, access to highways, proximity to wetlands, and the impact of neighboring facilities. After this assessment was completed, the VA ranked and scored each site as part of its evaluation process, and the VA narrowed the field of candidate sites to the top few and proceeded with a more detailed due diligence analysis. At that time, the VA indicated that it would then be on track to acquire the property by the end of this year or the Spring of 2012. However, the March 2nd announcement that the VA now believes none of these sites will be viable and it plans to restart the entire site search will add 12 to 15 months to what has already been a protracted timeline.
Dear Secretary Shinseki:
I write to request a meeting with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) regarding the ongoing effort to acquire an appropriate site in Western New York to establish a new, yet long awaited, National Veterans Cemetery. Despite VA personnel conducting site visits of several potential sites in WNY in response to my urging last March for progress, it remains that two years after the VA first announced it would purchase a site for the cemetery - land is not yet acquired. It is imperative the VA facilitate a meeting in which a clear timeline and path forward is provided in order to avoid another protracted 12-15 month process that does not result in the VA acquiring a suitable site.
There are nearly 100,000 veterans in Orleans, Niagara, Erie, and Cattaraugus counties alone and approximately 200,000 veterans when you include the Rochester region and those veterans who live more than 75 miles from the nearest available National Cemetery. As such a new National Cemetery in Western New York is required under current VA regulations that allow for establishment of a new cemetery when it would serve 80,000 or more veterans within a 75 mile area. After everything the veterans of Western New York have done in service of their nation, it is critical that they have a local resting place where they can receive the honor they deserve. Requiring a grieving family to travel over 100 miles to bury or visit their loved ones is unreasonable and unnecessary, especially when there are suitable locations in Western New York.
Therefore, I am urging the VA to facilitate an immediate meeting in my Washington office to provide a clear timeline and path forward on this project.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter. If you are in need of any additional information please feel free to contact my Washington Office at 202-224-6542.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Warm Bodies' Heats Up the Box Office
Eventually, the popular opinion on zombies is going to shift and people are going to stop watching 'The Walking Dead' and buying zombie-themed video games, but that day is not today. People still love zombies and if the opening weekend is any indication, they love 'Warm Bodies.'
Ben Affleck and 'Argo' Win Top Prizes at the DGA Awards
Okay, this is just getting silly -- another major Hollywood award ceremony, another victory for Ben Affleck and 'Argo,' this time at the Director's Guild of America awards. If this was like any other year, Affleck would look like a shoe-in for the Oscar...except that he's not nominated. Which means that Affleck's repeated victories make this year's Academy Awards the hardest to predict in recent memory.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Hansel & Gretel' Conquer the Competition
Make no mistake: this was a slow and bad weekend at the box office, an example of the January doldrums at their absolute worst. However, this was probably the only environment where a film titled 'Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters' could have flourished, so at least someone is happy.
'Argo' Wins Big at Producer's Guild of America Awards
With each passing awards ceremony, the Academy's snubbing of Ben Affleck for Best Director looks increasingly ridiculous. Some thought that 'Argo' winning Best Picture and Best DIrector at the Golden Globes was something of a fluke, but now that the critically acclaimed box office hit has won big at the Producer's Guild of America awards, you may want to shuffle around your Oscar bets.
Weekend Box Office Report: Jessica Chastain Wins the Weekend
Is Jessica Chastain a movie star? Probably not. At least not yet. However, this weekend proved that she's well on her way to being one. Headlining the top two films at the box office in a single weekend is a great start. The Oscar nomination certainly doesn't hurt either.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Zero Dark Thirty' is Number One
You really only need to say one thing about the opening weekend of Kathryn Bigelow's 'Zero Dark Thirty': it made more in three days than 'The Hurt Locker' did in its entire run. If there's anything that's going to alleviate getting snubbed for at the Oscars in the Best Director category, it's that.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Texas Chainsaw 3D' Slashes Through the Competition
Here's the thing about January: it's usually a wasteland. With the studios concentrating on their Oscar campaigns and the profitable summer months still half a year away, this month is where all of the crap usually gets dumped. However, this is also one of the few months where crap has a chance of performing well, hence the success of last year's 'The Devil Inside' and now 'Texas Chainsaw 3D,' which took the weekend with a strong $23 million opening.
Daniel Craft, NY Asian Film Fest Organizer and Avid 'Star Trek' Fan, Has Passed Away
Even if you don't know his name, chances are strong that you've heard the story of Daniel Craft. You probably know his name because he was the 'Star Trek' fan who was granted his final wish of seeing 'Star Trek Into Darkness' after being diagnosed with terminal cancer, but he was also a member of New York's Subway Cinema and helped organize the city's increasingly popular Asian Film Festival. Last night, he passed away.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Django' and 'Les Mis' Anchor a Strong Weekend
Well, now we know why the box office was so incredibly light last week: everyone was waiting to see things this week! Although 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey' clung to the top spot for the third week in a row, it was a very tight race, with only $4 million separating the top three films.

Holiday Box Office Update: 'Les Miserables' and 'Django Unchained' Start Strong
Who says Christmas is about staying warm by the fire and exchanging gifts with your loved ones? Everyone knows that the holidays are all about movies! A depressing musical adaptation of a Victor Hugo novel and an ultra-violent revenge fantasy may not sound like Christmas material, but the opening days of 'Les Miserables' and 'Django Unchained' prove otherwise.

"So good that I had to write my first review"
Wow! I began listening to audio books about 6 months ago while commuting. I used to read hard copy of the usual predictable best selling fiction authors--crime, adventure, suspense, a little romance. 'Memoirs' was outside of my usual box and I'm thrilled that I did that.
This has been my favorite and provoked me to write my first review. The narrator was wonderful and the story full of imagery and the characters were so richly painted for me. It's a gentle, thoughtful listen.

The Upper Valley Food Co-op has an interesting history with roots all over the Upper Valley.
Activists in the early '70's were unable to get bulk foods, so they started a small store on West Lebanon's Main Street that they called 'The Do-it Store', with its motto over the door: " Don't Just Talk about it, Do It!" Customers figured out their own bill and put their money in a can.
Later, the store became known as the Upper Valley Food Co-op, acting as a buyers' club housed in a couple of quanset huts near the Ompompanoosuc River in Thetford. Each month, after the bulk food had been distributed, they cleared the center of the main building and had a dance.
Eventually it became a grocery store, located on Mechanic Street in Lebanon; then in 1983, it moved to the Coolidge Block in downtown White River Junction.
A wonderful video of the our co-op's beginnings, filmed by South Strafford co-op member Phyl Harmon, is available on DVD in the co-op's library.
I began working at the co-op in its White River Junction location in 1987. My pay was $4.75/hour. There were two staff members: Chip Blough and myself. There were no departments, and we shared all the tasks. On a good day, we took in $1,000. The store had wall-to-wall carpeting (presumably in place when they moved in), and a superworker came in each morning and vacuumed it.
Most of our products came from a distributor co-op of food co-ops called Northeast Cooperatives, and the trucks had to park on Main Street across from the store (there was no rear access). We would carry the boxes across the street, take them in the front door and down an aisle to the back of the store, and pile them in a little dark back hall to be opened and the contents stocked.
Even back then, before the local foods movement, our co-op bought as much from local producers and farmers as we could. We got tomatoes (and lettuce!) from Longwind Farm before they began to concentrate on just tomatoes, and I remember Jack Lazor of Butterworks Farm bringing his yogurt to us in person!
It was a charming little store, and we loved it. We had a big window in front, where we put a little table and chairs, so that two people at a time (or maybe 3) could eat and watch people go by in the street.
But by 1993, our sales were such that we had to move to a bigger building, and with trepidation we took over our present location. We knew our customers loved our smallness and humanness and were afraid we would lose that in this big store!
Clearly, we have been able to preserve what our customers like!
If you hate cooking, you'll love raw. Raw means not heating food above 105 – 118⁰ as this damages the nutrients and minerals and can make food harder to digest. That means no steaming, boiling, sautéing, broiling, baking, frying or any of the other creative processes I was used to. None of the ingredients are pasteurized, homogenized, genetically modified, or otherwise compromised.
Levi Strauss wrote about the raw and the cooked as a way of describing what was found in nature and what is formed by human culture. At first glance, our home culture didn't involve many processed foods. The challenge of eating raw for a week opened my eyes to how many processed foods we actually ate and helped me re-examine our relationship with food.
Our kids' snacks were off limits. Coffees and teas were also off the menu (help, I thought!). Bread and all the other baked goods that peppered our week were out. And as much as I love cooking, there are days when I just throw the fallback meal together (the one where I know we will be full and I know I have the ingredients), or we eat out. Those options were not available.
Where we found our ingredients also changed. Beyond our home, the food culture is largely processed, in some cases more heavily than others. The majority of supermarket goods are processed, and a large number of those contain genetically modified organisms which are strictly off the table, so to speak, in the raw diet. Unless the produce was raw and organic, I wasn't buying.
After some rushed research and some serious produce purchasing at the coop (thank you bulk section!) I figured I could at least get us through the first day. I knew I had to soak nuts (to release enzymes and make them more digestible) and I had a vague idea about sprouting seeds (studies have shown this increases proteins, B vitamins, and amino acids). I knew people used dehydrators (but did not have a spare few hundred $ to buy one), and was convinced of the importance of a good food processor or blender.
Despite all this, day one was abysmal.
Breakfast was put on hold when I discovered we had no cheesecloth to drain the pulp from the almond milk. I packed the kids into the car to pick up cheesecloth before they had hunger meltdowns. Did I mention there was no coffee for me during my raw week? The rest of the morning was spent preparing and researching lunch and dinner and made day one exhausting.
We made it through day one, in fact we made it through a week with zero processed foods. Some of the meals were abject failures – we spent one meal choking back blended cabbages masquerading as soup. Other meals were amazing and filling.
Eating 100% raw food completely challenged the culture we had formed around food in our home. We genuinely felt better about food because we were making such a conscious effort to eat better food. Although it was frustrating to let go of the old culture of cooking, the new culture of soaking, blending, marinating, sprouting, and drying offered fresh possibilities.
Making that cultural shift at home was not as hard as I had thought. Making a broader cultural shift will be harder. Eating out is impossible on a raw diet, and visiting with friends and family mean salads and veggie sticks, which is why now we are about 80% raw. I haven't had a cup of coffee since our raw week began and I don't miss it.
Deli & Produce Departments will close at 1pm.
The entire store will close early at 6pm.
The Upper Valley Food Co-op will be closed.
The store opens at Noon.
~~~ We apologize for the inconvenience. ~~~
Welcome back on Monday
5% off all purchases!
Don't forget 5% off to Seniors on Tuesday.
5% off on August 1st, 4 to 6pm
Stop by during our First Friday event for a guided orientation to the new setup.
The goals for this reset are two-fold. One is to ease traffic flow in the deli area where it tends to jam and the other is to consolidate the bulk offerings into one area. This will hopefully make it easier for our bulk buying cutomers and more efficient for our grocery clerks to maintain. Please bear with us as we start packing up parts of the store Saturday evening. We'll be closed all day on Sunday, and we'll open again Monday at noon.
One of the many great things about the Upper Valley is the number of local organic farms that reside here. This past weekend the Co-op took advantage of that fact and hosted the first of its two Farm Tours, an opportunity for community members to learn not just the details of how farms run, but also the goals and philosophies behind them.
This first Farm Tour was actually a visit to two neighboring farms, Sylvia Davatz's Solstice Seeds and Brian Stroffolino's Heartland Farms, who focus on collaboration over competition. Brian, who rents his land from Sylvia, had little farming experience before starting Heartland Farms. In the two years that this farm has been running Sylvia has been his mentor. He's adopted her enthusiasm for seed saving, working the land by hand, and using hay mulch for most everything. This similarity in their approach to farming encourages collaboration, while differing crops and goals avoids competition.
Walking onto Sylvia's property, you will be taken in by her orderly gardens and orchard. The stone walled beds and the close quarters of a wide variety of plants gives the sense of a decorative landscape, but amongst these features are the functionary rows of crop. Some of these crops are for eating, but most are for generating seeds. Even many of the edible plants are left untouched to make sure that they produce bountiful seeds.
As Sylvia introduces herself, she explains why seed collecting is so important to her. There's a value in having your own seeds to plant for the next year. It's important to know how they were grown and processed. Things like how they were stored over winter can have a big impact on how well the plant grows the following year, or years down the line. There's also the simple fact of knowing, without doubt, that this seed will do well in your particular climate.
That's another one of Sylvia's passions, and one of the philosophies behind her farm: experimenting with new varieties to find out what grows well in her climate. And she points out that her climate is not the northeast or even the upper valley, but Hartland specifically. This year she's growing peas, and noting how each variety is doing as the season progresses. She's also planted three varieties of peanuts, a borderline crop, to see how they'll do.
Sylvia's farm is basically a research farm, with experimentation a constant. Just next door, Brian's farm is a food production farm. While he has a few crops that he grows for seed, or for experimentation, the majority of his crops are for Heartland Farms' CSA. He often has four or five rows committed to the same crop, as opposed to Sylvia's small row containing 12 to 20 plants. Many of these crops were grown from seeds that he got from Sylvia. Brian gets the assurance of knowing his crops will grow well, and Sylvia gets to see how the plants grow and mature, as compared to the parent plants. It's an arrangement that benefits everyone. Farming is often thought to be a competitive business, but with the right set up collaboration can be extremely successful.
The second Farm Tour for the summer will be at Free Verse Farm in Chelsea, VT. This small community herb farm specializes in naturally-grown tisanes (herbal teas), culinary herbs, medicinals, and herbal remedies. You'll be able to taste and smell all the herbs they have growing, and learn about the variety of uses for herbs. The tour will be August 23, from 11am to 2pm. If you'd like to register you can sign up in store or call 295-5804 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
New to our grocery shelves are Cole's Sardines. From their recycled packaging to selecting only all-natural products that meet our strict standards for sustainable farming and fishing methods, Cole's brings you great gourmet taste with a conscience.
We now have Turmeric Force in the Value Size, 120ct. New Chapter vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements are a whole-food complex – something your body easily recognizes and absorbs. Sourced from nature's bounty of organic fruits, vegetables, herbs and superfoods and cultured in probiotics to deliver the full spectrum of Nature's benefits.
New to our Cheese Cave is Timberdoodle, a Tallegio-style cheese from Woodcock Farm, located in Weston, VT. This rectangular cheese has a sticky orange rind and a creamy soft interior. The rind imparts much of the strong flavor to the cheese and is complemented by the smooth texture and creamy, fresh flavors of the interior.

High quality ramen - is there such thing?
I don't mean the restaurant kind, I mean the cheap bricks in the plastic pouches.
I tend to buy things on impulse in ethnic markets with labels I can't read at all, and over the years I've gotten some pretty good ramen but I have no idea what the brand was or what the flavors were (shrimp? Something seafoody, in any case)
Asian chowhounds, are there any good ones out there? Care to describe the label or what to look for? Any particular country put out better stuff?
I tend to buy Myojo Chukazanmai or Nong Shim brand ramen. Myojo is Japanese and tastes closer to fresh than the Nissin and Maruchan varieties that are so prevalent.
Nong Shim is Korean. Any of their Kimchi flavored ramen packets/bowls are great.
I'm with you, and I always say I'm gonna start a ramen log. I just buy random. They've been mostly pretty decent. Especially the big bowls that say "hot & spicy flavor." Great idea for a thread!
I used to buy the Maruchan Roast Chicken and Roast Beef; preferred them to the plain chicken and beef flavors. But they recently disappeared from the supermarket shelves, along with several other favorite products. Don't know yet whether they were discontinued or if Hannaford's computers ordered their buyers to quit stocking them, like they did with smoke roasted salmon last year. Another couple of factors sending me to their competition across the street...
Will check a couple of Asian markets for Myojo Chukazanmai, Nong Shim, and Mama brands- thanks for the recommendations. Checked the other thread and will look for IndoMie MiGoreng and Tung onion flavor, too.
The refrigerated ramen with fresh noodles is far better than any of the dried stuff I've ever tried. With the dried noodles, most have a similar flavor in the soup mix that I really don't care for. But the last time I was in Seattle, I picked up some dried ramen at Uwajimaya that is actually quite good. All the writing on the packaging is in Japanese, but the U.S. nutrition label identifies it as "Charmela Shoyu 5Shoku Pack." I'm not sure if the brand name is "Charmela," but attached is a pic of the wrapper. It comes in a package of five.
One thing I do recommend is not using the water you boiled the noodles in for the soup. I heat the water, and pour a portion of it into the serving bowl with the seasoning packets, then boil and drain the noodles before adding to the soup.

5 Foods That Make Your Body Freak Out
Itchy and watery eyes, nausea, an attack of endless sneezes—these mild to severe symptoms plague the nearly 15 million Americans who suffer from food allergies, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Problem is, most of the time we don't associate these freak-outs with food allergies, so they go unnoticed and untreated.
As more adults are being newly diagnosed with food allergies, it's still unclear whether these allergies have simply gone unnoticed or have just developed over time, says Paul Bryce, Ph.D., associate professor of medicine, division of allergy-immunology, at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine. (Northwestern's Food Allergy Research Consortium recently got a multimillion-dollar boost from generous donors, alumnus Anthony Melchiorre and his wife, Andrea. Read more about the gift here.)
In any case, they're annoying. Allergic reactions to food range from mild skin irritations, coughing fits, nausea, and diarrhea to severe reactions like anaphylaxis, or difficulty breathing; swelling or tightness of the throat; chest pain; trouble swallowing; and dizziness or feeling faint. More extreme cases may require keeping an injectable epinephrine (EpiPen) on hand.
Unfortunately, there's no cure for food allergies, but if you're noticing recurring symptoms and still don't know the real culprit, see an allergist. "Food allergies are not something to be taken lightly or diagnosed over the Internet," says Bryce. "There are tests that can be performed in the clinic and laboratory to determine which foods someone is actually reacting to, and extensive advice on how to respond appropriately when a reaction occurs."
Whether they force a simple gesundheit or a trip to the emergency room, these five food groups should be in the front of your mind the next time you feel a little funny after noshing on nuts or milking your fridge's dairy supply.

|Bee Gees singles chronology
"First of May" is a song by the Bee Gees with lead vocals by Barry Gibb, released as a single from their 1969 double album Odessa. Its B-side was "Lamplight". On the 1996 reissue of this single, its flipside was "How Deep Is Your Love" as the song re-entered the charts in Japan reaching No. 25. It was used as a B-side of "Melody Fair" in 1971 on the Melody soundtrack as well as in 1976 and 1980 on RSO Records.[2] Also in 1980, sometimes, it was chosen as the A-side with "Melody Fair" as the B-side only in Japan. It was the first Bee Gees single after guitarist Vince Melouney left.
It was first recorded in Atlantic Studios in New York and was continued in IBC Studios, London. Barry says in Tales from the Brothers Gibb that the title of the song came from the birthday of his dog, Barnaby. Maurice recalled the session in which that song came about. "Barry and I were sitting at the piano", he said, "And I started playing the chords, and Barry started singing, 'When I was small and Christmas trees were tall' and started singing along with it. We put a demo down with a vocal and we kept the piano track. Went back to England, and went into IBC Studios in London, added onto that piano track and Barry's vocal stayed on as well. We had a choir and an orchestra all on this one piano".[3] This song was initially taped in demo form in New York City on 16 August 1968.[4]
The orchestral arrangement from maestro Bill Shepherd was featured on the second chorus. The song starts with a piano on the first verse and chorus. Shepherd's orchestra was featured in second verse and second chorus. After singing the second chorus, the singer repeated the first verse. The music was stopped when he sings don't ask me why, but time has passed by, Someone else moved in from far away.
The flip side of a single was "Lamplight" on which Robin Gibb sang the lead. Robert Stigwood, the Bee Gees manager chose "First of May" for the A-side. No other singles were released from the Odessa album, as Robin Gibb already had left the group. The song was partially responsible for the departure of Robin Gibb from the Bee Gees. Robin had wanted his song, "Lamplight," to be the album's first single, while Barry preferred "First of May." In the end, Barry's judgment won, and Robin quit the band.
After its release, "First of May" enjoyed a resurgence several times. In 1971, the song was featured in the soundtrack to Melody, a British motion picture about puppy love.[5] In 1996, the song was used as a theme of the Japanese drama Wakaba no Koro.[6] The song reissued on CD climbed the country's chart again and gained moderate commercial success, selling more than 100,000 copies.[7]

The report documents 2,123 Christians killed for their faith in 2013 versus 1,201 killed in 2012. Details, carried in Reuters, show that over half the deaths took place Syria alone. However, because many of those deaths are due to heightened tensions from the civil war, Open Doors ranked "North Korea at the top of its list of 50 most dangerous countries for Christians." The next four most dangerous were "Somalia, Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan." Open Doors' France's Michael Varton said ongoing conflicts and wars that pit Islamists against others--as in Syria--are especially dangerous for Christians. The report says, "Islamist extremism is the worst persecutor of the church worldwide." The report makes clear that in North Korea the issue isn't always the number of Christians killed but the number held as political prisoners for their faith. Open Doors estimates "50,000 to 70,000 [Christians] lived in political prison camps." Follow AWR Hawkins on Twitter @AWRHawkins.
