NYS Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP)
The development of the New York State Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) is required under NYS Executive Law, Article 2B. The plan is developed and maintained by the New York State Office of Emergency Management and agencies that comprise the NYS Disaster Preparedness Commission (DPC). The CEMP is contained in three distinct, but interconnected volumes.
These are:
- Volume 1: The State Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan: This portion of the CEMP addresses the State's overall hazard mitigation planning process, risk assessment, strategy development and plan implementation. Having a FEMA-approved mitigation plan provides New York State and its communities access to the full range of post-disaster recovery programs and each of FEMA's five hazard mitigation programs to reduce the effect of similar events. It also allows New York State to identify ongoing mitigation opportunities and take maximum advantage of available Federal funding to implement mitigation measures at the State and local levels. The plan offers a source of natural hazard data and can serve as a guide in content and formatting as local plan writers prepare their own mitigation plans and develop local strategies.
- Volume 2: Response and Short-Term Recovery: The purpose of this document is to identify the State's overarching policies, authorities and response organizational structure that will be implemented in any emergency or disaster situation that warrants a collective, multi-agency State response. This volume of the CEMP serves as the basic planning framework for the State's response, and includes the mechanisms to address short-term recovery from any hazard that could adversely affect the State. This volume also serves as the basic foundational framework for the development of several functional and hazard-specific annexes.
- Volume 3: Long-Term Recovery Plan: This volume includes the provisions for implementing long-term recovery activities and functions, including mitigation, as provided for under the Federal Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act and a variety of Federal-State programs. Volume 3 also recognizes the primacy of local governments in the implementation of long-term recovery plans and, depending on the nature and impact of the disaster, new programs that might be necessary to effectuate full recovery.
State Multi-Agency Functional Branch Annexes
The State CEMP is supplemented by a series of other operational plans, including several functional branch annexes. Each functional branch annexes identifies the individual and collective response activities of multiple state agencies in applying their collective resources to an emergency. The functional branch annexes are listed below.
- Animal Protection Branch (APB) Annex: This annex outlines the approach to providing services to protect humans and animal populations from animal-borne disease outbreaks, natural disasters, and other emergencies. This annex is supported by detailed appendices for emerging infectious diseases in non-human populations and temporary emergency animal sheltering.
- Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources (CI/KR) Branch Annex: This annex provides coordinated, short-term and focused assistance to facilitate the restoration of critical infrastructure. In addition, this annex provides the platform to continually monitor and report the operational status of critical infrastructure during emergency situations. This scope of this annex does not address transportation related concerns, which are addressed in the Transportation Infrastructure Branch (TIB) Annex.
- Emergency Services Branch (ESB) Annex: This annex outlines the operational capabilities to support state and local emergency services activities and response efforts. The annex identifies the general concept of operations for proving state-level support to search and rescue efforts, emergency medical services, and overall support for hazardous materials incidents.
- Law Enforcement and Security (LE&SB) Branch Annex: This annex outlines the state's approach to providing state law enforcement personnel and services in times of need. This plan includes multi-agency capabilities that can be applied to augment local law enforcement response activities across a broad range of hazards.
- Public Health Functional Branch Annex: This annex outlines the state's approach to providing a unified public health response component across state and local response activities. The annex provides general concepts in applying a public health focus and operational support to an emergency, and describes the assignment of responsibilities for various public health functions.
- Transportation Infrastructure Branch (TIB) Annex: The purpose of this annex is to provide prioritized, coordinated, temporary, and focused, strategic planning assistance and resources to restore transportation infrastructure. The TIB also supports awareness of the operational status of the State's transportation infrastructure during emergency situations or planned events, which may include the status of transportation infrastructure elements in adjacent states or provinces. The TIB annex is supported by a Transportation Coordination Appendix, which identifies headquarters-level support and oversight for managing closures on the NYS Thruway.
- Human Service Branch (HSB) Annex: The Human Services Annex and Standard Operating Guide (SOG) to the State's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) supports the human services response to disasters in New York State through all phases of emergency management. It provides details on the roles and responsibilities of member agencies and groups supporting the overall human services mission to minimize the disaster impact by responding quickly and compassionately to the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs of disaster victims to restore the dignity, self-esteem and well-being of the citizens. The Human Services Branch consists of several groups that focus on specific functional areas that align most with Emergency Support Functions # 6 and # 8, as well as long-term recovery. The branch structure includes groups to support the following activities: Mass Care, Mental Health, Disaster Assistance Centers, Housing and Unmet needs. Coordination and collaboration of member agencies and partners at the federal, state, local and non-governmental and voluntary agencies is critical to accomplish this task.
Hazard-Specific and Functional Annexes
The State CEMP is also supplemented by additional emergency plans that are very narrow in their scope. These include several hazard-specific plans that address one individual hazard or risk, as well as other functional plans that can support response operations across a broad range of hazards. Several plans are currently under review. The completed annexes and their descriptions are listed below.
- NYS Mass Fatality Annex: Several events have occurred in New York State that serves as a constant reminder of the challenges and sensitivities associated with fatality management. Over the last two years, State OEM Planning Staff and staff from the NYS Department of Health jointly spearheaded a planning effort to develop a State-level Mass Fatality Annex to the State Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP). The planning team included representatives from numerous DPC agencies, as well as local government, health and hospital organizations, volunteer organizations, and the private sector. The annex is an all hazards, capabilities-based plan that leverages the wealth of resources and support from multiple DPC agencies and identifies the linkages into the Federal response system. The Annex will serve as the state's operating plan for all incidents in New York State that require state-level mass fatality support.
- Emerging Infectious Diseases in Non-Human Populations (EIDNHP) Appendix 1: This appendix to the Animal Protection Annex applies to diseases that impact the agricultural community or portions thereof, when local and State capabilities are exceeded and Federal assistance is necessary. This document reflects the potential for an animal-borne disease to impact public health and identifies key mechanisms to facilitate an efficient, coordinated response to such emergencies.
NYS Homeland Security StrategyThe New York State Homeland Security Strategy provides a comprehensive framework to guide, organize and unify homeland security efforts in New York State, including strategic planning and the investment of federal homeland security grants and other applicable local, State or federal funding sources.

Ever seem like gasoline is more expensive near airports, where a driver is likely to top off a tank before returning a rental car? That's certainly true outside Orlando International Airport, where the price at one pump was $5.79 per gallon a few days ago. Yep, about 2 bucks higher than you'd expect.
Problem is, you don't see the price until the pump, because the two notoriously high gas stations closest to the airport don't want you to know their prices until then, OrlandoSentinel.com reports.
Even though it's been a year since Orlando passed a law requiring all stations in an area around the airport to post prices on signs visible from the street, the stations' owners have refused to comply. The stations' owners have sued over the law, and a trial is scheduled this fall.

UK Solar Stocks Could Shine Plugging Into Incentive Plan
NEW YORK ( Trefis) -- The U.K. solar industry could add as much as 600 megawatts of solar capacity by next April despite government cuts in subsidies and other limitations imposed on utility scale plants.
Solar companies are using a decade-old renewable energy incentive program to sidestep a 5-megawatt cap on solar plants that rely on feed in tariff subsidies. The latest rush to build new solar plants comes despite government efforts to limit installations by cutting tariff subsidies last year.
Dropping costs for setting up utility scale solar plants has encouraged investors to use Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs). Although the returns through the program are lower than through other programs, their use allows utility scale developers to override the 5-megawatt limit of solar farms that is currently in place.
Increased installations in the U.K. through 2012 could have a positive impact on the global sales of
(SPWR). We have a
Large-scale DevelopmentAcross Europe, governments are taking steps to limit the development of utility scale plants. Germany imposed a 10-megawatt limit on solar projects in the latest overhaul of its subsidies program, and countries such as Italy are focusing on small-scale and rooftop solar installations. Developers of utility projects are therefore being forced to adopt other means to tap into energy subsidies. Renewable Obligation Certificates were introduced by the U.K. in 2002 to originally support the development of offshore wind farms. Despite the low returns through the ROC program, developers are using the route to plan multiple large-scale plants, which could result in the addition of around 600 megawatts of capacity over the next several months. Equipment manufacturers such as SunPower could benefit from such a jump in installations.

Favorite Classes?
- 0Jul 10, '12 by LunaPumaI am currently at the halfway point of my first trimester, and I am BEAT(A+P is kicking my gluteous maximus). I was hoping I could get some encouragment about better classes coming in the future?
What classes were your favorites? What helped you to make it through the difficult classes? What did you do to keep from pulling your hair out and strangling yourself?
- 1Jul 10, '12 by Ashley, PICU RNI'm thinking that you mean you're halfway through your first SEMESTER, not TRIMESTER. (Although, I was pretty exhausted halfway through my first trimester of pregnancy, too.)
I think it gets easier once you get into the nursing classes and become interested in what you're learning. It doesn't feel like so much work because you know it's helping you prepare for your career. During the difficult classes, just tell yourself it's a small inconvenience that you have to overcome in order to reach your goals. Keep a calendar to count down the weeks. It will go faster than you think. Good luck!
- 1Jul 11, '12 by LunaPumaNo, my school's program is 3 TRImesters; We're only here for a year. But thank you for the encouragment!
- 0Jul 11, '12 by SarahRN2013I loved both my anatomy and physiology classes. They were time consuming but keeping my eye on the end goal (as Ashley recommended) was helpful to keep me going. I hope it helps when the fast paced part of my program starts this fall
- 0Jul 13, '12 by johnny depp23Dosage and Calculations is a fun course to take -
- 1Jul 13, '12 by palmbeachRNMy thought going through school was always to pretend that I was interested in the class...fake yourself out to get through it!!!!
- 0Jul 13, '12 by BostonFNP, MSN, DNP, NP GuideQuote from LunaPumaThis a pre-req program?No, my school's program is 3 TRImesters; We're only here for a year. But thank you for the encouragment!
May favorite part of pre-licensure was Synthesis (a little of everything all put together).
- 0Jul 13, '12 by Jennie.KI loved physiology, hated anatomy. I enjoyed anything biology related and I am looking forward to chemistry. I hated college algebra but I think I would kind of enjoy statistics bc I like problem solving. Basically, I found if you take all the little things and fit them together to get a bigger picture, it is a lot more enjoyable. The only subjects I have not been able to get into are psychology and sociology
Good luck!!
- 1Jul 13, '12 by PinkCupcakeMy CC uses a trimester format as well for their RN program. We have to go summer, fall, and spring. I actually like it because I've finished all of my pre and co reqs so most trimesters I only have one or two classes. I could not imagine taking physiology or micro along with med surg...no thank you!

Call for Conference Papers
The African Studies Institute, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia, is accepting papers for its three-day International conference from November 5 – 7, 2014. This year's theme is "Gender and Development: Relics and Innovations in the African Realm."
Gender and its impact on the social, economic, and political development of human societies is the subject of serious inquiries. A dominant concern in these inquiries is the establishment and/or improvement of gender equality within the society. Additionally, these inquiries also consider the many different variables that either contribute or deter the attainment of gender equality. Notwithstanding the criticism of over-emphasizing social differences, these inquiries continue to highlight the importance of gender equality to development. The convoluted and arduous history of state formation, slavery, colonialism, post-independence, nation-building and poverty reduction makes Africa and Its Diaspora appropriate venues for examining gender (equality) and development. Many African and African Diaspora societies struggle with the perplexing issue of gender and development. The prevailing inconsistency is due, in large part, to the dramatic but dominant influences of culture, religion, class and ethnicity. Existing simultaneously in these societies are the relics and innovations of both the advantageous and depraved impacts of gender and development.
This conference aims to stimulate and document scholarly discussion on the complex issue of gender and development in Africa and Its Diaspora. The conference will offer a forum for intensive exchanges among participants from Africa, the United States, and elsewhere, to highlight both the gains and challenges of the extensive inquiries on gender and its impact on development within Africa and the African Diaspora.
Within the broad theme of the conference, potential topics for papers include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- Language, Literature & Film
- Political Systems
- Sustainable Agricultural and Environmental Development
- Applied Economics
- Social Studies
- Consumer Sciences
- Anthropology/Sociology
- Religion/Philosophy
- Education and Knowledge Transmission
- History
- Women Studies
- Gender & Cultural Studies
- Peace and Conflict Resolution Studies
- Africana Studies?

Blowing Polystyrene
Name: Susan R. Status: Educator Age: 40s Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: October 2002
I want to use old Polystyrene foam in molds for art pieces. I understand from your archives how Polystyrene foam is melted down. How is polystyrene blown?
Historically, chloro-fluoro hydrocarbons were used to make styrene foams. These were being phased out in the 1980's and 1990's and pretty much banned by the EPA circa. 1996. Some dry but informative details you can find on the
website http://www.epa.gov/ozone/snap/foams/qa.html
When it was clear that CFC's were going to be phased out, (and become much more expensive), the Polystyrene foam industry put on their thinking caps and now there are a number of processes using steam, carbon dioxide, and no doubt other technologies. For the most part the transition has been transparent to consumers. Search www.google.com for "blowing polystyrene" and you can find dozens of "hits" that describe various processes in detail.

PLEASANTON, Texas (AP) - Six people aboard a twin-engine airplane have suffered minor injuries in a crash along a highway as the pilot tried to reach a South Texas airport.
The Federal Aviation Administration says the Cessna 414 crashed Monday night while trying to land at Pleasanton Municipal Airport.
FAA spokesman Lynn Lunsford said Tuesday that investigators are trying to determine what caused the crash of the charter flight from Addison Airport near Dallas.
He says the plane bound for Pleasanton, 30 miles south of San Antonio, crashed when the pilot attempted to land, failed and then went around to try again.
The plane ended up on its belly in some grass along Farm-to-Market Road 3350 near the runway.

Why We Love Shrimpby Toby Amidor in Why We Love, June 30, 2012
For years my culinary students have told me how much they love shrimp. They're pretty surprised when I tell them that these crustaceans are not only delicious, but good for you too! Here's why we love shrimp and how you can too.
Shrimp Facts
90% of the shrimp Americans consume is imported from countries in the Central and South America and Asia-Pacific regions. The hundreds of species of shrimp are typically divided into 2 basic categories: warm-water and cold-water shrimp. The rule of thumb is the colder the water, the smaller and juicier the shrimp.
Shrimp ranges in hue from deep red to pink to grayish-white to yellow and even dark green. When cooked, most shrimp shells change color due to a heat-induced chemical change.
You can buy shrimp according to their size—usually you'll find that larger shrimp cost a prettier penny. Colossal shrimp usually come 10 or less per pound, jumbo 11-15 per pound, extra-large 16-20 per pound, large 21-30 per pound, medium 31-35 per pound, small 36-45 per pound and miniature about 100 per pound. Of course, these numbers can vary from region to region. As a general rule, one pound of whole, raw shrimp yields ½ to ¾ pound of cooked meat.
Shrimp is available all year round. They can be found in various forms at your local market such as shelled or unshelled, cooked or raw and fresh or frozen.
The Nutrition Scoop
Three ounces of shrimp has 83 calories, 1 gram of fat, and 18 grams of protein. It's an excellent source of selenium and a good source of vitamins D and B12. It also has a boatload of omega-3 fats and the amino acid tryptophan.
The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends 2 servings per week of seafood—right now, the average American only eats one serving per week. The American Heart Association also advocates eating seafood twice a week; studies have shown that it can help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Many of my clients have voiced concern about the cholesterol found in shrimp. Studies have shown that saturated fat (not cholesterol) has a greater impact on raising your bad cholesterol. Although 3-ounces of shrimp contains about 40% of your daily recommended max of cholesterol, it doesn't contain any saturated fat. In addition, shrimp is very low in calories per ounce (about 28)—which makes it one of the lowest calorie protein sources around.
Shrimp Ideas
Here are ways you can enjoy this succulent crustacean:
- Roast shrimp for a delicious twist on shrimp cocktail.
- Keep it cool with Ellie Krieger's Shrimp and Snow Pea Salad.
- A little bit of bacon goes a long way with Tyler Florence's Bacon Wrapped Shrimp.
- Nothing beats a home-cooked Jambalaya.
- Grill 'em up in this Charcoal Grilled Shrimp recipe courtesy of The Shrimp Council (pictured above).

Dhaka, Sep 6
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh arrived in Dhaka Tuesday on a two-day visit.
Agreements, including a pact on border settlement that will involve a swap of enclaves in each other's territories, is expected to be signed after talks between Manmohan Singh and his counterpart Sheikh Hasina.
Manmohan Singh will also call on Bangladesh President Mohammad Zillur Rahman and meet leaders of other political parties.
A day before leaving Dhaka, Manmohan Singh said in a statement: "As a close neighbour and friend, India is committed to extending its full support to Bangladesh in its development efforts."
"Our partnership with Bangladesh is important for the stability and prosperity of our own northeast region. It is a partnership which can have a profound positive impact on the South Asian region as a whole," the prime minister added.
Manmohan Singh is accompanied by the chief ministers of Assam, Tripura, Meghalaya and Mizoram on the trip. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee did not go on the trip to protest the final draft of the Teesta river water sharing agreement.

Psychological issues may play a role in erection problems (erectile dysfunction). These issues may include depression, anxiety disorder, or another mental disorder.
Men with these types of problems may benefit from therapy.
Psychological treatment is most likely to be helpful for men who:
The type of therapy and how long it lasts depends on what type of problem you have. Both group or individual therapy may be used. It's often helpful to involve your partner in the therapy.
Evidence shows that group therapy helps with erection problems in some men. Adding group therapy to treatment with sildenafil (for example, Viagra) helped more than sildenafil alone. Men who took part in group therapy also were more likely to keep taking their medicine.1

Man says Pinterest stole his ideas, files lawsuit
The major ideas that Schroeder claims was stolen from him include content boards and infinite scrolling. Additionally, Rendezoo was said to have targeted females and Pinterest has a huge female membership which is said to be another sign that Pinterest used ideas belonging to others. The site has responded by saying that the lawsuit is "baseless" and will be "aggressively fought".
Pinterest is a site that allows members to "pin" pictures and images of things that are important to them and share it with the rest of the world.

This page explains, in some detail, what Enlightenment (E17) Modules are, how they are related to Gadgets, how to load installed Modules, and how to install Modules from the Bodhi Linux repository.
What is a Module?
A Module is a small E17 program that can be used to extend the functionality of your desktop. They can be installed to the PC and loaded into RAM at runtime. By not loading all its Modules by default, E17 minimizes the amount of RAM being used at any given time. The more Modules you load, the more RAM will be occupied. On PCs with 256MB of RAM or less, it becomes a slight consideration. But due to the efficiency of the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries (EFL), each Module takes up very little additional memory. The applications(word processors, web browsers, etc.) you choose to run are the much more important aspect to consider with limited RAM. Many Modules, once loaded into RAM, provide access to Gadgets that can be placed on the desktop or on a Shelf.
How to Load Modules
Go to Menu>Settings>Modules and the Module Settings dialogue, depicted on the right, appears.
Notice the tabs at the top. The Modules are categorized as Utilities, System, Look and so on. In the screenshot, the iBar module has an orange circle indicator adjacent to it. (the indicator changes based on Theme), meaning it is already loaded. There is a brief description of what the highlighted Module does at the bottom of the Modules Settings window. You have the option of unloading it to save the very little memory it uses. The next Module listed, iBox, is not loaded. If you click on the iBox line, the Load button will become active, as depicted. The scrollbar at the right lets you scroll down the list to see the other Modules you have installed and their status - either loaded into RAM or not loaded.
Modules and Gadgets
Many of the Modules provide Gadgets that can be added to your desktop or onto a Shelf. Some, like EFM Operation Info, can only be displayed on the desktop, while others like Systray can only be displayed on a Shelf. Several Modules exist whose only function is to provide a Gadget, such as the Clock module. In most cases, a Gadget will not be displayed just by loading its respective Module, because E17 lets you decide where to display the Gadgets, whether it be shelf or desktop. Please see the Shelves and Gadgets page for details on placing a Gadget in one or the other location.
Installed Modules
Please see the Module Reference page for a list of all Modules installed by default.
Downloading Modules
Many Modules, such as Forecasts,
are not included in the Bodhi Linux installation CD in
order to keep it within size limits, in accordance with the
Bodhi Linux philosophy. Modules that
are not installed by default can be found in the Bodhi Linux
repository. You can install them via Synaptic Package Manager at
Main Menu>Applications>Preferences or with the
apt-get command-line tool:
sudo apt-get install -y <name-of-module>
Besides Forecasts, check out the following useful Enlightenment Modules that are not installed by default:
- cpu
- forecasts
- mem
- news
- net
- tclock
Search for "enlightenment module" in the Quick Search box of Synaptic to find any others.
For a complete list of available Modules see the Module Reference.
Removing a Module
Because of the nature of Modules, it is not necessary to delete/uninstall them. As long as they are not loaded, they will not be using any system resources (RAM & CPU for example). Plus, the disk space they occupy is negligible.
However, if you do find the urge to completely remove one (or more) Modules, simply uninstall it from the Synaptic Package Manager like any other other application, or run the following command in Terminology (or whichever subpar terminal emulator you decided to use instead):
sudo apt-get remove -y <name-of-module>

As mentioned in my last blog I recently took delivery of the Fuji X-Pro1 to which impressed me a great deal. For me it's not so much what the camera does (although it helps). To me it's more about how the cameras feels and how much I enjoy using it too.
The Fuji has impressed me a great deal. In my hands it feels great, the build quality and detailing is fantastic. The controls are logically placed, it's an absolute joy to use. In fact this camera has impressed me so much, I made the decision to switch my entire professional set up to Fuji, switching from Nikon.
Now I know many fan boys will scoff and that's fine. But at the end of the day I need to have a system I enjoy using that delivers the goods in terms of quality. For me both of those factors come hand in hand when I shoot. My Nikon kit was due for an upgrade and although it served me well, very well in fact. I felt the new offerings didn't offer me what I wanted. As well as that it left me slightly confused as to where Nikon were heading.
The Fuji system however offered me everything I was after and in a form factor that was smaller and lighter. Plus they even published a road map to show me their future plans. This alone gave me confidence it was the right choice. So this week all of my Nikon kit was sold and replaced with another Fuji X-Pro1 and an X-E1. Plus the full current lens portfolio.
So now I am a full time Fuji Professional and so far loving every minute of it. As I know most people don't read this bit I may as well shut up now and stick some pictures below.

Emily Spivack on reinventing the wheel
Last week Changemakers interviewed our director, Emily Spivack, about her experiences as the founder of Shop Well with You, a body-image resource for women with cancer. Emily started Shop Well with You as an undergraduate at Brown University and, nine years later, the organization remains a core resource used by health professionals, social workers and women across the country. We thought her no-nonsense advice would be valuable to readers who are entrepreneurially inclined.
Key takeaways:
- Find yourself a mentor. I worked with some amazing mentors along the way…I highly recommend trying to find a mentor when first starting out. I would meet with a handful of women every few weeks who had also started related citizen sector organizations and we'd share stories and tips – about building a board, fundraising, developing programs, managing staff.
- Don't settle for "no." I know this has been said before, but for me, when someone would turn me down for funding, I would always see it as a temporary answer. "No" never meant "no." I would interpret it as "come back later" or "try me again sometime soon." I'd stay in touch with people, be persistent without being annoying (I hope!), and keep plugging away.
- Don't reinvent the wheel. If you have an interest and passion for a particular cause, that doesn't necessarily mean that you need to start your own organization…Check around and see if there's a related organization that's making an impact. Reach out to them to see if you could join forces. If I had encountered an organization that shared a similar mission to SWY, I would have contacted them to see if I could work with them. You can definitely…learn quite a bit from working within an existing organization.
Read the full interview here. And if you have any questions for Emily – or any suggestions of your own – please pass them along.

For those taking advantage of all the new mid-Kelvin HQI offerings by forgoing a mix of bulbs colors, instead running a single bulb color across the entire system, the 4' 2x250 and 6' 4x250 systems offer ideal alternatives to a row of pendants.

Requirements to license a vehicle: Wyoming Title - proof of insurance on motorized vehicles - proof that the vehicle was registered in another state to you or proof that you paid sales tax. If this is a new purchase, you will be charged sales tax based on the rate in effect in your Wyoming place of residence. Sales tax must be paid within 50 days of purchase or be subject to penalty and interest on the tax amount.
Motor Vehicle county fees are based on the original value (factory price) of the vehicle from the factory to the dealer plus all options. This gives the valuation which is then multiplied by 3% which gives the county fee. This fee is in lieu of property tax and can be deducted from federal income tax if you file the long form. The state fee is a flat fee of $15.00 for cars and campers. Trucks, trailers and motor home`s state fee is based on weight.
Example: 08 Car factory price $35,000.00 x 60% = $21,000 x 3% = County fee $630.00. This fee is pro-rated downward for the first 6 years of the life of the vehicle till the formula would be $35,000.00 x 15% = $5250.00 x 3 % County fee $157.50. The % is as follows: 60% - 50% - 40% - 30% - 20% - 15%
There is a calculator for estimating your cost on the Wyoming County Treasurer`s Association site http://www.wcta.us/
As you can see the more expensive your vehicle the more it costs to license in Wyoming. Wyoming is not cheap when it comes to motor vehicle fees. Please contact us for more information if you plan to move to our state.
You are required to license immediately upon employment, even if you are self-employed, or you have 120 days if not employed or retired as long as you are currently registered in another state.

Despite being the smallest country in Southern Africa, travel in Swaziland has much to offer. Life in Swaziland remains routed in the customs of the past, so don't be surprised to find traditional healers offering herbal remedies at the local market or ancient ceremonies bringing the city streets to a standstill. It is something of an understatement to say that travel in Swaziland is full of surprises.
Swaziland has been ravaged by drought and hampered by a rapidly increasing population, yet a decline in economic growth has led to a rise in poverty and mortality rates. Having recently been declared a humanitarian emergency for its HIV/AIDS epidemic, Swaziland has never been in more need of volunteer support. Shocking statistics reveal that it has the world's highest HIV prevalence among people aged 15 to 49 years, and the world's lowest life expectancy at just 31.3 years. Volunteers in Swaziland are crucial to help with vital community and education projects to support disadvantaged individuals.
Volunteer in Swaziland
If you want to volunteer in Swaziland during your time abroad or are heading out to southern Africa, take a look at our volunteer section for information about the fantastic volunteering projects at your fingertips!

School Wants to Oust Church Over Anti-Gay Sermons
The head of Miami-Dade County Public Schools wants to evict a Southern Baptist church that rents space in one of their buildings because of the congregation's opposition to homosexuality.
Supt. Alberto Carvalho released a statement to a local television station alleging that Impact Miami's opposition to homosexuality "appears to be contrary to school board policy as well as the basic principles of humanity."
"I have asked for immediate legal review to seek the termination of the contract that is involved," he told Local10.com. "I am making this decision not on the basis of policy or politics but as a rejection of prejudice and intolerance."
The controversy surrounds Impact Miami, a new Southern Baptist church that is currently renting space inside North Miami High School for their Sunday worship services.
When President Obama announced that he had evolved on the issue of gay marriage, Pastor Jack Hakimian preached two sermons explaining the biblical position on homosexuality.
One of the sermons was titled, "Gays and Sex Addicts Can Change and Should Change." Another was titled, "Pedophiles Use the Same Argument as Homosexuals and the Weed Smoking Community."
"The school board chair, as well as the superintendent, have both reviewed the allegations and found this disturbing and appalling," school spokesman John Schuster told www.Local10.com.
Pastor Hakimian said he and his congregation have been unfairly labeled as bigots. He said they are facing eviction from their space simply because he preached that homosexuality is a sin.
"It's about a message that homosexuality is a sin that God wants to redeem as all other sins," he told Fox News.
The church pays nearly $1,500 a month to rent the high school facility and said "as taxpayers we have the right to assemble in public spaces."
"I never thought I would be penalized for teaching on Christian marriage and sexual ethics from the Bible – the very bible that presidents swear on," he said.
Impact Miami is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, the nation's largest Protestant denomination. SBC President Fred Luter told Fox News that the controversy is a "sign of the times."
"We're living in a day and time when people are calling wrong right and they're calling right wrong," Luter said. "Any time a man of God stands up for the Words of God, I think we should expect opposition – simply because of the fact that God's ways are not man's ways.
The possible eviction has enraged religious liberty groups – several of whom have already volunteered their services to defend the pastor and the church should they be thrown out of their meeting space.
"He has the right to be able to speak on Sunday from the Scriptures and speak about his viewpoint on human sexuality," said Mat Staver, president of the Liberty Counsel. "This is not someone who is advocating violence or some whacko that is extreme that would be a threat to society. This is a pastor who is speaking on issues from their own moral, political and biblical perspective."
Staver told Fox News that he's had a chance to review the pastor's sermons and noted that the messages were in line with that millions of Americans believe.
"It is not contrary to humanity," he said, refuting the school superintendent's allegations. "It is absolutely outrageous that you would have a superintendent who would (think) along these lines."
Staver called the attack on the Miami church a serious threat.
"It's serious for all of us," he said. "If we lose the right to free speech in this area – we lose it in every other area."
Staver said their organization and other religious liberty groups have feared that homosexual advocates might use anti-bullying laws to go after ministers.
"This is coming right into the very pulpits of churches and pastors will ultimately have their messages censored and they'll be discriminated against because of the positions they take on human sexuality – and specifically homosexuality," Staver said. "This is Exhibit A of that threat."
Joel Oster, senior counsel with the Alliance Defending Freedom, told Fox News the U.S. Constitution is clear on matters regarding free speech.
"A school cannot be listening to sermons and then discriminate against the church based on the content of the sermons," Oster said. "This church does have a constitutional right to use these facilities. Public schools cannot discriminate against religious use of their facilities based upon viewpoints – and that's exactly what's going on here."
Andre Pierre, the mayor of North Miami, told Fox News he had concerns about the school board's actions – and wondered what kind of an impact it might have on other religious groups renting space.
"You cannot censor his speech," the mayor said. "The school should stay out of it. Pastor Jack is paying rent. He's not getting the space for free."
The mayor said he believes the school board attorney will side with the church.
"I think he'll come down on the right side – which is – you cannot censor freedom of speech," Pierre said. "You have to respect the American principles and you have to uphold the Constitution."

Over 3,000 cooperatives established in six months
Addis Ababa, 22 February 2014 (WIC) - Some 3,457 cooperatives were established in the first half of this Ethiopian budget year, according to the Federal Cooperative Agency (FCA).
With over 334, 840 members, the newly established cooperatives were able to generate over 94.3 million birr income, Public Relations Directorate Director with the Agency, Yigzaw Dagne, told WIC.
Some 8 unions which made 11.6 million birr income were also created in the first six months of the budget year, according to the director.
In addition to supplying their products to local markets, the cooperatives are exporting various products to overseas markets, thereby generating foreign exchanges for the nation, he said.
According to Yigzaw, they earned over 31.2 million US dollars in revenue in the reported period by exporting coffee and sesame to various countries.
the cooperatives and unions have saved over 54.2 million birr as well as distributed over 62.8 million birr to their members, he added.
With a view to alleviating storage shortage of the cooperatives and unions, four warehouses were built in Amhara and Tigray regional states at a cost of over 37.6 million birr.
Efforts are also underway to build seven additional warehouses in various parts of the nation, he added.
Short-term trainings on service provision, accounting and marketing were also given for 944 heads and employees of unions and cooperatives, he indicated.
The agency has set a target of raising the number of cooperatives at the end of GTP period to 59, 401 from 53, 982 now, while the number of unions to 546 from 309 now.

We've noted that the Mormon church has been extremely active in the campaign for Proposition 8 and urged all church members to be active and to give as generously as they can. But not all Mormons agree. Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Steve Young has a No on 8 sign on his lawn, and his wife has sent $37,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Before turning pro Steve Young was not only one of the many great quarterbacks to play at Brigham Young University, he is the great-great-great grandson of church prophet Brigham Young, and narrated a video about the church used in conjunction with the 2002 Salt Lake winter Olympics. Apparently it's his wife who is most passionate on this issue, but while she says Steve tries to stay aloof from formal involvement in politics, he supports her activism fully.

A collection of relevant and timely media clips and resources.
Posted on January 18, 2002
With many hunters' and sportsmen's penchant for SUVs to reach their favorite hunting spots, a recent television commercial aired by Jeep (a subsidiary of DaimlerChrysler) raised the hackles of many in the hunting community. So much so that DaimlerChrysler was flooded with complaints and an on-line petition was circulated protesting the ad.
In the commercial, titled "Deer Hunter," a Jeep is driven through a wooded area with two deer tied to the top of the vehicle. As the Jeep drives by, hunters in camouflage are shown in the woods, in close proximity to each other and the road, admiring the deer. The Jeep then drives to an area marked with a "NO HUNTING" sign. The Jeep stops, the man gets out and releases the deer that appeared to be dead. The driver tells the deer they are safe, and the deer bound away. In the background, other Jeep owners are shown doing the same thing.
The ad obviously portrays hunters in a negative light, and apparently DaimlerChrysler heard the voices of sportsmen loudly and clearly, as the ad has been pulled. "We did not anticipate this story line would evoke such negative emotion among some viewers," stated Jeff Bell, Vice President of Marketing Communications for DaimlerChrysler. "Obviously we underestimated the sensitivity of this issue. [B]ecause this is so emotionally charged, we will no longer continue this campaign."

Whew. That was overwhelming. Somehow I went from being an administrative assistant to having major responsibilities in a matter of days. I'm not sure I was mentally prepared for the intensity. Teachers were already stopping by my office for consultation! After six months in a desk job though, I could probably use a challenge, and the day flew by! There's definitely a lot of energy in the school system. And the people are wonderful!!! I'm excited and scared at the same time.
I came home to recovering Matt who nearly fainted of nausea and dizziness this morning. I feel bad that I wasn't around to help:( I made up for it in dinner though. I threw together some comfort mac and cheese, with a wonderful sun-dried tomato chicken sausage, and roasted brussels. It really hit the spot this evening.
I think some House Hunters will be a nice night cap. Another new day tomorrow! k night.

I started a new job this week too! I'm glad your first day went well- so much better to be busy than bored! The day goes by extremely faster that way.
Happy first day!! I think it's pretty awesome that the teachers already have faith in you, that's excellent. School psychs are not very common over here in Western Australia – are they in the States?
Glad you had a good first day. I remember you said you are working part-time. Do you get to set your own hours? If so, I think that will be wonderful.
SchoolPsychology Student
Hi! I've enjoyed reading about your school psychology experience! I'm going into the second year of my program & I'm a little nervous! I TOO want to work in Atlanta (I'm actually from ATL). Like you stated, I think I'm more into the MENTAL HEALTH than EDUCATION. I am actually surprised about how much we DO NOT study mental illnesses. Would you recommend School Psychology as a career? I'm thinking it might be best to cut my loses and go into Occupational Therapy…?? I'm just not sure!
