Ryan Ruocco Makes Sense of Free Agency
Former WFUV and current ESPN and YES announcer Ryan Ruocco breaks down the big NBA news about LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and the Brooklyn Nets.
Listener Supported Public Media from Fordham University
Former WFUV and current ESPN and YES announcer Ryan Ruocco breaks down the big NBA news about LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and the Brooklyn Nets.
The National Basketball Association has been entirely caught up this week in the future of LeBron James. That can't be LeBron's fault.
It started in 2010. That summer the NBA changed drastically and still has not been the same since. It was the summer where players began to take power into their own hands, abandoning the teams that drafted them and teaming up with other stars to win championships.
The comments spewing from the mouth of LeBron James recently have certainly been head-scratchers to say the least. First he decides to make the claim that there are no rivalries in the East. Now he decides to call a number of ex-Celtics hypocrites.
Bold statements, King James. Time for your crowning as King of Fantasyland.
Ray Allen's game tying three pointer in Game 6 of the NBA Finals changed everything for the Miami Heat. The image of the Big Three went from failure to success and LeBron James joined an exclusive group of Hall of Famers by winning back to back Finals MVPs.
After finishing media availability in Miami between games one and two between the Spurs and Heat, Marc Berman of the New York Post joined One on One to talk about the NBA Finals.
I'm sitting on a leather couch in an upscale bar on Fulton Street and New York Giant cornerback Prince Amukamura is a few feet to my right. My colleague/friend/socializer Kris Venezia is next to me and we engage in conversation to avoid any awkward stares in our direction, which we knowingly received from many people, including Hannah Storm's younger daughters to our left. You see we inadvertently had situated ourselves in the VIP section of the bar, an open room with neon lighting that offered us a chance to breathe.
Almost three years ago the in-your-face summer spectacle at Miami's American Airlines Arena, celebrated the arrival of LeBron James. He was asked if he took his talents to Miami to win a championship and he famously proclaimed, "Not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven." This came on the heels of James and ESPN partnering for the tasteless special, "The Decision," leaving him and the Heat as public enemy No. 1. In the ensuing months the team was booed in every arena, ripped to shreds all over the Internet, and crushed by most talking heads.However, when Miami's Team President Pat Riley was recruiting James to the Heat during the summer of 2010 he sold the reigning MVP on the chance to be the focal point of not just a Champion, but a dynasty.

Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
Hi All,
I had an e-mail from a friend who edits on wikipedia, on an account I used to have. He has come up against this article:
Sunny Leone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He is trying to add in that Sunny Leone is not a practising Sikh, but there are a couple of editor there who I guess specialise in pornography who wish to delete what he wishes to add probably because they wish to publicise she is a Sikh for Sales.
In any case, shouldn't people like this be excommunicated formaly from Sikhi rather than people like Kala Afghana? I mean, Ok, if she wants to be a pornstar, that is fine, but why is she claiming to be a Sikh? Has she taken Amrit? does she wear the 5k's? At best she is an apostate Sikh?
Any views?
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
90 percent of sikhs have not taken amirt. sunny leon is not even a sikh name. she is probably confusing sikh with being punjabi.
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
funny though... I thought she was using Leone for Singhni ...but maybe was imagining.
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
Leone..Female Lion..lioness ?? funny thought.. aad ji..you set me imagining too..wow
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
QUOTE:.<<Even though Leone tries to maintain a link to Sikh traditions, this is in theory rather than practice.[5] She has also said that she is unlikely to leave the adult film industry due to religion, saying that "girls will leave the industry claiming that they found God. Well, the fact is, God has always been with them the entire time...
TRUE..God is there all the time....perfectly correct according to Sikh Doctrine...as we dont have any satan etc....ALL is GOD.
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
True, but does not fixation with Kaam (in this instance), take us further from God?
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
Randip Ji..OF COURSE IT DOES..Fixation with Food, sugar..meat..milk..kheer..maya..flashy cars..ANYTHING..takes us FURTHER AWAY from Guru Ji... Spot ON.
so she is no different from Many of us...here the Jesus saying applies..Any who has not sinned cast the first stone...
Re: Sunny Leone Should Be Excommunicated?
It just unnerves me that people for the sake of money, materialism, egotism are willing to show off their private parts and intimate details and still claim to be followers of the Sikh Guru.
The thought of people watching films like that and saying, look she is a Sikh! Sikh's who for the sake of their faith watched their children die, died themselves, starved to death.....but never shamed themselves.
Don't get me wrong if she was a man, I would be just as much outraged, but to see the word Sikh and Pornography together just makes me cringe.:(

THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY Extended Edition Blu-ray Review
by Rob Vaux Posted 1 year, 45 days ago
Since its release, the one criticism leveled most consistently against The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey was its length. Eager to fill the giant void in their profit margins left by the departure of Harry Potter, Warner Bros leveraged a three-film cycle out of Peter Jackson, stretching J.R.R. Tolkien's comparatively slim novel far past its breaking point. The result was a pretty good film in a lot of ways, but one whose flabby center and general overindulgence prevented it from joining the pantheon of greats occupied by The Lord of the Rings. As you may have gathered, adding another fifteen minute doesn't exactly improve matters. Hit the jump for my full review of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Extended Edition Blu-ray.

The American Society of Anesthesiologists launched a new video today on its lifelinepatients YouTube channel that highlights the need for responsible use of pain medication and proper disposal of the drugs.
"This latest addition to ASA's YouTube patient channel comes on the heels of the release of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention Plan and supports the report's recommendations by providing public education on the issue," said Rafael Ortega, M.D. and producer of the video. "ASA's lifelinepatients YouTube Channel is designed to be a resource for patients on a variety of topics related to anesthesia."
Other videos available on the lifelinepatients channel include:
• Anesthesia Awareness
• Labor and Delivery
• Pain Medicine
• Anesthesia Considerations for Geriatric Patients
• Stop Smoking Before Surgery
• Sleep Apnea
• Herbal Medicine and Anesthesia
• Bariatric Surgery and Anesthesia
• The Role of the Intensivist
ASA also offers patients additional social media channels to stay current on patient information regarding anesthesia including: Patient Lifeline on Twitter and ASA Vital Health on Facebook. Please also visit lifelinetomodernmedicine.com for patient anesthesia information.
"ASA is committed to meeting patients where they go to find their health information," said John F. Dombrowski, M.D., Chair of the ASA Committee on Communications. "It is important we empower patients through social media with the anesthesia-related information they need to know to be better prepared for surgery and have more optimal outcomes."
Founded in 1905, the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) is an educational, research and scientific society with more than 52,000 members organized to raise and maintain the standards of the medical practice of anesthesiology. ASA is committed to ensuring physician anesthesiologists evaluate and supervise the medical care of patients before, during and after surgery to provide the highest quality and safest care every patient deserves.

Given the variety of bicycle styles and price points, investing in the right one can prove a challenge. Cruiser, fixie, e-bike? Or how about dusting off that late-90s mountain bike that coordinated so perfectly with your Oakley sunglasses?
Perhaps more important than the bike you choose is where you choose to ride it. Some cities are inherently more bike friendly than others. If you find yourself pedaling along in an area with no bike lanes, where motorists aren't well aquatinted with proper road-sharing etiquette, it's not going to be very fun (or safe), no matter what you're riding.
You've probably gotten a fairly good sense of how bike-friendly your community is, but what if you're away from home? ShermansTravel has put together a list of the 10 best biking cities around the U.S. for Huff Post Travel. The list takes into consideration bikeable miles, bike rental programs and unique routes found in cities with a population of 100,000 or more.
Popular cycling destinations like Portland and Austin make the list, along with a few surprises. Sure, not everyone will agree on a top 10, but this list is a good jumping off point if you're looking to put in some miles while on vacation this spring and summer.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT/AP) -- Around 11:00 a.m., a Knox County judge is expected to rule on whether or not to exhume the body of Knoxville's late district attorney or let him rest in peace.
With the D.A.'s widow facing a murder trial next month in the 2003 death of her second husband, prosecutors showed renewed interest in the 1992 death of her first husband, District Attorney Ed Dossett.
The medical examiner at the time ruled Dossett has fatally trampled by his cattle, but past and present medical examiners questioned the level of drugs in his system and lack of X-rays of his head and neck to establish how he died.
The hearing has been delayed two hours to allow a special prosecutor from Cleveland, TN, time to get to Knox County.
WVLT Volunteer TV's Rob Pratt is in the courtroom.

"Benefits need to be given immediately even if budget is defeated" - Muscat
Opposition leader Joseph Muscat said that a government led by him would give all benefits from January 1, even if the budget is defeated.
Muscat pointed out that as the government found ways to impose rises in fuel and other sectors, there shouldn't be a problem to give compensation for the increase in the cost of living from the beginning of 2013.
He said that if the government tries to play the partisan game and does not give out the benefits immediately, a new government led by the Labour Party, would give out these benefits as of January 1, 2013.
Muscat stated that the Labour Party does not know what will happen when the budget is presented in parliament and "it is the responsibility of the government to see that the budget is accepted".
In a statement published by the Nationalist Party with regards to Muscat's speech, it said that "if Muscat wants that the family benefits from the budget, he should vote in favour of it". It said that "he is placing his partisan interest ahead of that of the family."

Does this Costume Make My Site Look Fast?
Things Get Weird on All Smugger's Eve.
Halloween, you've met your match.
Even when we're pounding our keyboards 'round the clock (and 'round the year), we always like to take some time out to let down our hair, unleash our creativity, and get our crazy on around the end of October. The prize? Bragging rights. The competition? Fierce.
SmugMug's Crazy Costume Contest
They costumed, we voted, and here are the winners. Check out some of the eye-popping, heart-warming and sword-waving people we've got crewing arrrrrrr! ship this year. (Get it?)
First Place
This year's first place winner was SmugSorcerer Greg. You know, we thought he looked a little different on Monday morning when we spotted him by the coffee machine:
"Hmmm. Did you get a haircut?"
Second Place
Dustin in Quality Assurance (QA), as Doctor Octopus, came in a close second. We can tell Dustin takes his job of crawling through new features before they are launched to find bugs very seriously:
Third Place
We crowned Technical Ops Craig third place because he brought Smuggy to life in his complete green-footed, jumpsuited, spandexed glory.
It got a little scary at times.
Then we had some fantastic family and group shots. Here's what we voted as the top 3:
Dustin's family as The Avengers vs Dr Octopus.
Support Heroes Sean and Eric with their own Addams Family.
Our founder Don and his pirate crew.
And we had one entry in the "Pet" category, as fish 'n chips. Don't worry, the fish is still alive and doing swimmingly:
Did you and your family dress up this year? We want to see!
More proof that SmugMug's more fun than your average photo biz:

Envy is painful for two main reasons—one which we probably are all aware of and one which is less accessible, more unconscious. The conscious experience of envy is that intense desire to have what someone else has. It is the Aching Want, the Painful Longing, the Maddening Craving in the presence of someone else who has it, enjoys it, even flaunts it. Beauty, money, possessions, power—we admire it and want it for ourselves.
Consciously, what is so painful about this aspect of envy is that it is based in a feeling of deprivation. We feel small. We feel inadequate. We feel poor. We feel that something is wrong with us. We might even feel something more acutely painful: We might feel like we are losers.

Yup, this measurement from comScore of 75 million people visiting Twitter in January of this year does not take into account those accessing the service through third party apps. Isn't it nice to get that out of the way right from the start?
Fresh off the news that in January Twitter served over 1.2 billion tweets there is little surprise in a growth chart that looks like this courtesy of TechCrunch and comScore
When you cut to the chase on this though, the question about Twitter has to be less about quantity and more about quality. As more and more of the mainstream begin to discover and possibly embrace Twitter (have you had any "I don't get that Twitter thing at all" comments from people who are not like you?) the pure volume of visitors, users and tweets will continue to rise. What might not rise is the legitimate information that is in the cacophony of tweets. If it becomes harder and harder to mine and make sense of Twitter's stream then it won't matter how many people visit.
Twitter has done it's part though by moving forward and making the overall experience more useful
Large sites like Twitter and Facebook before it tend to grow in step-like patterns, with bursts of growth followed by periods of flatness during which the site absorbs its new users and adapts to their needs. Twitter has certainly been improving the functionality of its own site, with the rollout of new features such as local trends, a better suggested user list, Twitter Lists, and the Retweet button. Maybe all that work is starting to pay off.
So how do you feel about Twitter today? I ask about today because the tide turns so rapidly in this space that even attempting to predict the future of anything is an exercise in futility. Obviously, no one has a crystal ball (except of course that broker who keeps calling you with "hot tips") but to call how the social media landscape will play out over any extended period of time is a crap shoot at best.
Your take?

Site Description
The Letterkenny Army Depot was originally a 19,243 acre Army facility, located 5 miles north of Chambersburg, Franklin County, Pennsylvania. Approximately 17,000 people live within 5 miles of the Letterkenny Army Depot. There are two NPL sites associated with the Letterkenny Army Depot. The first is referred to as the Letterkenny Army Depot Property Disposal Office (PDO) NPL site. The second is referred to as the Letterkenny Army Depot Southeast (SE) Area NPL site. This narrative will concentrate on the Letterkenny Army Depot SE Area NPL site.
The Letterkenny Army Depot was established in 1942 for ammunition storage. Since 1947, however, activities at the Letterkenny Army Depot expanded to include (a) the testing, maintenance and overhaul of wheeled and tracked vehicles and missiles; (b) the storage and transportation of industrial chemicals and petroleum; and (c) storage, maintenance, demilitarization, and modification of ammunition. The Letterkenny Army Depot SE Area NPL site includes areas associated with the overhauling, rebuilding, and testing of wheeled and tracked vehicles, as well as warehousing operations.
The Letterkenny Army Depot was included in the 1995 Base Closure and Realignment Act (BRAC), with 1,462 acres designated for transfer to the private sector for local redevelopment, while the resulting 17,781 acres remain as part of the active Letterkenny Army Depot. To date, 833 acres have been transferred to the private sector, with approximately 400 acres remaining to be transferred.
In 1983, volatile organic compound (VOC) contamination of the groundwater beneath the Letterkenny Army Depot (LEAD) SE Area was detected. In 1984, it was determined that the LEAD SE Area contained at least six major areas of VOC contamination and/or elevated levels of metals. Three of these areas were confirmed to have contributed VOC contamination to the groundwater. In particular, industrial waste lagoons located at the LEAD SE Area contributed to VOC groundwater contamination. The VOC contaminated groundwater plume migrated off-site and discharged to springs up to 2 miles to the east and south of the industrial waste lagoons. This same contaminated groundwater plume extended to off-post wells. After residential well sampling disclosed the presence of VOC-contaminated groundwater, the Army initially supplied affected residences with bottled potable water. By 1987, 38 residences and businesses were connected to the Guilford Water Authority water supply. In 1992, three additional residences were added to the water supply line.
Contamination from both NPL sites includes chlorinated organic solvents, blast media, paints, petroleum products, metals, and cleaning agents stored or disposed of in landfills, trenches, burn pits, or spilled from storage.
The Army also formed a Restoration Advisory Board (RAB) with the regulators, citizens and local government members to give input to final cleanup decisions. Funding for cleanups comes from both Army BRAC and Installation Restoration Programs accounts. Further study is also needed for additional transfer of BRAC parcels, including possible transfers prior to final cleanup.
Site ResponsibilityThis site is being addressed by the U.S. Department of Defense under the Installation Restoration Program and Base Closure (BRAC 1995).
NPL Listing HistoryThe Letterkenny Army Depot SE Area was proposed to the National Priorities List of the most serious uncontrolled or abandoned hazardous waste sites requiring long term remedial action on October 15, 1984. The site was formally added to the list on July 22, 1987.
Threats and ContaminantsGroundwater beneath the Southeast Industrial Area of the depot, as well as beneath an off-depot area of approximately 4,000 acres, extending at least 1 1/2 miles to the east, is contaminated with chlorinated organic chemicals. Soil has been found to be contaminated with chlorinated organic chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Individuals may be at risk if they accidentally ingest, inhale vapors, or come in direct contact with contaminated groundwater or soil.
Contaminant descriptions and risk factors are available from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, an arm of the CDC.
Cleanup Progress
Environmental Studies began in 1978 and continue. The majority of the two NPL sites were identified in 1995 as excess and to be returned to the community for local reuse. The Army, EPA, and Pennsylvania signed an Interagency Agreement in 1989. The Army, state and EPA formed a BRAC Cleanup Team (BCT) in 1996 which is working closely to streamline the cleanup process, to expedite the cleanup, transfer and reuse of excess property to facilitate local redevelopment. Franklin County has formed a Local Reuse Authority (LRA) referred to as the Letterkenny Industrial Development Authority (LIDA) to support reuse and cleanup priorities.
The Letterkenny Army Depot SE Area NPL site has 12 Operable Units:
SE OU 1 K Area Contaminated Soils
The K-Areas were used for the disposal of waste generated from LEAD activities. The K-1 area (or K-1 Lagoon) was used to dispose of waste solvents used in painting, paint stripping, and degreasing operations at LEAD. The K-1 Area was in use from 1957 to 1970. Its dimensions were approximately 200 x 50 ft. The Area of VOC-impacted soil was approximately 78 x 189 ft.
The K-2 area was in use from 1965 to 1970 and included five (5) partially revetted areas used to accumulate solid waste prior to disposal into a nearby landfill. Its dimensions were approximately 270 x 75 ft. It appears that when the K-1 lagoon was closed some soil from K-1 ended up at K-2. The area impacted at K-2 was a 60 x 20 x approximately 10 ft deep.
The K-3 area was in use as a drum storage area from 1965 to 1970 and covered an overall area of approximately 100 ft. x 40 ft. Based on available soil analytical data, the actual contaminated area was limited to a 50 x 50 ft. area. The K-areas were located in the Disposal Area (DA) of the Depot.
In 1983, a RI identified that the K-Areas contained high levels of VOCs. In 1989, a DA-wide soil gas investigation identified that high levels of VOCs existed in the vadose zone soils of the K-Areas. In 1992 the boundaries of the K-Areas were delineated. K-1 contained up to 5.5% TCE and lead up to 1.5%. PCBs and SVOCs were also discovered.
A ROD was signed in August 1991. Remedial Action started in July 1993 and was completed in October 1995. The VOC-contaminated soils were excavated, treated with Low Temperature Thermal Desorption, returned to the site, and capped as a Class II Residual Waste Landfill. The Remedial Action addressed all environmental concerns of this OU. VOC-contaminated groundwater at this site will be addressed by OU 3- Southeast Onpost Contaminated Groundwater.
An ESD was finalized May 7, 2004 to implement Institutional Controls, Long-Term Maintenance, and Cap Inspection. The most recent 5 Year Review was completed in 2012.
SE OU 2 – Industrial Wastewater Sewer System and Contaminated Soils
Problems with the Industrial Wastewater Sewers (IWWS) were first identified in the 1993 Remedial Investigation (RI) Report for the Southeastern Area. Studies of the IWWS lines showed that numerous breaks and/or leaks existed in both the IWWS and Stormwater Sewer lines. Leak testing and sampling indicated that VOCs had leaked from the IWWS and migrated to the soil/bedrock interface. Emergency repairs were made to the IWWS beginning in October 1994 and were completed in December 1995. An engineering evaluation/cost analysis (EE/CA) was prepared by LEAD to address the removal of contaminated soils associated with the leaking IWWS lines. LEAD conducted an emergency removal action of the IWWS-contaminated soils east of Building 370 in summer 1997.
Remedial Investigation (RI) and Risk Assessment (RA) Reports were completed in September 1998 and June 2002, respectively. A Final FS was completed in November 2004 and a Proposed Plan was finalized in May 2005. A final Record of Decision (ROD) for SE OU 2 was signed in September 2006. The selected remedy for SE OU 2 was cleaning followed by abandonment of the sewer and drain lines at Building 37 and 57 to prevent future use of the existing sewers. The remedial action was completed in spring 2006. The risk assessment showed that there are acceptable risks for industrial and/or commercial use; therefore, the chosen remedy includes land use controls to prevent the use of the property for residential housing, elementary and secondary schools, child care facilities, and playgrounds.
SE OU 3 – Disposal Area VOC-Contaminated Groundwater
SE OU 3 was divided into two OUs (SE OU 3A and SE OU 3B) in 2002 so that the area upgradient of the VOC-contaminated groundwater from the Disposal Area source could be managed separately as SE OU 3B to facilitate the BRAC transfer.
SE OU 3A addresses on-post groundwater contamination in the Disposal Area (DA). Groundwater in the vicinity of the DA is contaminated with chlorinated solvents. Dye studies have shown that water from areas within SE OU 3A is discharging off-post (see SE OU 6). The source of this contamination was the DA. Although the many of the sources of contamination have been addressed, VOCs are still being detected. This is most likely due to the presence of Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (DNAPL) within the bedrock matrix and associated groundwater, which is continuing to act as a secondary source.
A draft Focused Feasibility Study (FFS) including an upfront Technical Impracticability waiver was finalized in FY10. Many studies have been completed to date, including a recirculation well Pilot Study and an in-situ H2O2 Pilot Study that was completed in April 2000. Additionally, investigations to verify the vertical extent of groundwater contamination were conducted from 2005 to 2006. A vapor intrusion pilot study was conducted from July 2004 to January 2006. The vapor intrusion sampling plan, which incorporated regulatory agency comments, was finalized in 2007. A Proposed Plan is scheduled to be completed in FY13.
SE OU 3B is a BRAC OU that addresses the area upgradient of the VOC-contaminated groundwater from the DA source. Groundwater sampling was initiated in August 2003 and a final SI Report was finalized in May 2005. A Proposed Plan was issued for public review in May 2005. A no action ROD and a FOST were completed and signed in June 2006. The ROD specifies no action for SE OU 3B groundwater and for soil associated with four parcels that consist of a portion of SE OU 8.
SE OU 4 – Stormwater Sewer Lines and Associated Drainageways
SE OU 4, which is located in both the BRAC and ER,A portions of LEAD, consists of the stormwater sewer system and associated sediments. Prior to installation and connection to the IWTP, industrial wastewaters from the SE Area at LEAD were discharged, untreated, to the Depot stormwater sewer system. An EE/CA was prepared to cover the removal of contaminated sediment from the Southeast Drainage Way (between the headwall and Salem Road) and Rowe Run (between the headwall and State Route 997) and to address the emergency repair of associated sinkholes. An emergency removal of the sediments and filling of the sinkholes was completed by the spring of 1997. A total of 1,037 tons of contaminated sediment was removed and disposed of as residual waste.
A Removal Action Summary Report for SE OU 4, which indicated no unacceptable risk to human health or the environment, was finalized in September 2003. A Proposed Plan was issued for public review in November 2004, and a Record of Decision was completed in August 2005. The selected remedy was no further remedial action.
SE OU 5 – Areas A and B Contaminated Soils
SE OU 5 is comprised of two areas of contaminated soil, which are designated Areas A and B. They were initially investigated in the 1980s. Area A is primarily contaminated with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and metals, with a small amount of VOCs. The most recent rounds of sampling to delineate the extent of contamination were completed in July 1995, when a localized spill area of elevated VOC concentrations was identified. An EE/CA was prepared and an emergency removal action was conducted in summer 1997 to excavate and dispose of the VOC-contaminated soil in the spill area. The remainder of Area A was evaluated as part of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) RI process.
Area B was a former Oil Burn Pit (OBP). The soil in this area was found to contain TPH, metals, and a small amount of VOCs; groundwater was also found to contain VOCs. Area B was further evaluated as part of the CERCLA RI process.
VOC contamination at Areas A and B is attributed to the K Areas (SE OU 1) and the Area A spill area. A Final RI/RA was completed in October 2004; these were published separately as an RI and an RA. A worm bio-uptake study was conducted in accordance with comments from EPA Biological Technical Assistance Group (BTAG), and as a result, a draft addendum to the ecological RA was submitted in September 2006. An FS will be completed in FY13.
SE OU 6 – VOC-Contaminated Groundwater North of Gate 6 and East of East Patrol Road (Rowe Run Drainage System)
SE OU 6 includes the discharge points of 6 VOC-impacted off-post springs and off-post VOC-contaminated groundwater associated with SE OU 3A and SE OU 11, including residential drinking water wells. A final dye study, initiated in September 1995, included the placement of dye in on-post monitor wells located near LEAD's property line and in Rowe Run (boundary trace). This study was completed in December 1995.
In addition to the springs, off-post wells were also evaluated as part of SE OU 6. Approximately 50 wells were sampled and results were analyzed for VOC and metals concentrations during the past 3 years. The results from this sampling indicated no additional VOC-contaminated off-post wells other than those previously identified.
A third study area of the off-post groundwater impacts was an evaluation of animals and animal products located on farms near the SE Area. Samples of eggs, milk, and meat were collected from numerous farms. VOCs and metals were detected at concentrations within the literature values or regional background levels for the media sampled.
A final RI/RA Report for SE OU 6 was submitted in November 2004. Additional investigations to verify the vertical extent of groundwater contamination were conducted from 2005 to 2006. A vapor intrusion pilot study was conducted from July 2004 to January 2006. In order to address residual on- and off-post VOC-contaminated groundwater associated with SE OUs 6 and 11 at LEAD, a Work Plan for the Evaluation of the Vapor Intrusion Pathway at SE OUs 6 and 11 was finalized in June 2007.
SE OU6 will be included in the Proposed Plan and ROD for OUs 3A and 11. The Proposed Plan and ROD are scheduled to be completed in FY13 and FY14, respectively.
SE OU 7 – Truck Open Storage Area
Sampling of SE OU 7 was initially conducted in summer 1994. This area consisted of an open storage area for trucks and an abandoned septic tank and leach field system formerly used as an oil/water separator. Analytical results from this sampling have shown no significant soil contamination present at SE OU 7. The detected groundwater contamination is attributable to SIA sources, such as the formerly leaking IWWS gravity lines associated with Building 37. Groundwater at SE OU 7 was addressed under SE OU 10. During the investigation of SE OU 7, an abandoned septic system was found. The septic system was used as an oil/water separator for the disposal of sanitary sewage from LEAD holding tanks. A removal action was conducted in spring 1997, which consisted of characterization, solidification and removal of the tank contents, backfilling of the tank, and restoration of the site.
A supplemental investigation was conducted in 1999 for the presence of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (dioxins/furans), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The results of the investigation were published in July 2000 and showed that the presence of dioxins/furans in burned material was at concentrations greater than the published industrial screening levels for direct contact. A time-critical removal action was completed in this area in December 2000.
The Summary of Investigations and Current Conditions Human Health Screening Level Risk Assessment and Screening Level Ecological Risk Assessment (SLRA/SLERA) was completed for the TOSA/WOS site in July 2009. SE OU 7 is included in the Phase V BRAC Parcels. The ROD was completed in FY12.
SE OU 8 – BRAC Waste Sites
The SE OU 8 area is composed of potential waste sites identified in the to-be-excessed portion of the SE Area. SE OU 8 is being investigated under the BRAC investigation program.
Findings of Suitability to Lease (FOSLs) have been signed for the following SE areas: Buildings 6, 9, 19, 412, 416, 500, 522, 2291, 7, 8, and 42. Two FOSLs were also signed that covered the remainder of the BRAC buildings in the SE area. Property transfers under BRAC are being performed in phases. The following is a summary of the status of property transfers within the SE OU 8 area:
- Phase I — Properties within the SE portion included Parcels 1 through 13, Parcels 16 through 27, and Parcel 31. A ROD for the Phase I areas was signed in September 1998. A FOST was signed in October 1998. Phase I BRAC Property Transfer was completed in November 1998. The ROD for Phase I documented selection of land use controls to prevent contact with contaminated groundwater and to ensure that the land use remains commercial/industrial.
- Phase II — Properties within the SE portion included Parcels 2-35 through 2-77 (with the exception of Parcel 2-73), consisting of structures and property above the seasonal high groundwater table. A ROD for the Phase II areas was signed in July 2001. A FOST for the Phase II parcels was finalized in November 2001. Phase II BRAC Property Transfer was completed in May 2002. The ROD for Phase II documented selection of land use controls to prevent contact with contaminated groundwater and to ensure that the land use for certain areas remains commercial/industrial.
At the time of the Phase I and Phase II RODs, the Army believed that it was administratively burdensome to separate parcels requiring these restrictions from those that qualify for Unrestricted Use and Unlimited Exposure (i.e. Residential Use). However, after completing the Second Five Year Review, it was determined to be more of a burden to monitor existing controls that are unnecessary. Therefore, an ESD was completed in FY12 that removed commercial/industrial restrictions from some Phase I and Phase II parcels .
- Phase III — Phase III parcels are located within an area referred to as Southern Martinsburg Shale Region (SMSR). A no further action ROD for Phase III was signed in August 2003. A FOST for the Phase III parcels was signed in August 2003.
- Phase IV - A Proposed Plan was issued for public review in May 2005. The Phase IV Parcels ROD and FOST were signed in June 2006. Phase IV comprises approximately 60 acres (parcels 4-92 and 4-93). The ROD specified that no further remedial action is necessary for soil (SE OU 8) and groundwater (SE OU 3) to protect human health and the environment.
- Phase V – Phase V BRAC Parcels include 17 SE OU 8 BRAC waste sites and SE OU 7, the TOSA/WOS site. The ROD was competed in FY12. A Land Use Control Remedial Design and FOST will be completed in FY13.
SE OU 9 – Landfill J
SE OU 9 consists of a landfill that has been designated Landfill J, which is located west of Building 320. Landfill J was discovered in 1995 while trenching for utilities. The extent of the landfill was determined using geophysical techniques and trenching. The characteristics of the soils and groundwater were evaluated through several sampling efforts. An emergency removal action was conducted in June 2001. A finalized Removal Action Summary Report, which included the RI/RA data, was completed in October 2004.
The Army has agreed to place a cover over this landfill and is currently evaluating groundwater remedies.
SE OU 10 – SSIA VOC-Contaminated Groundwater South of Gate 6 (Conococheague Drainage System)
SE OU 10 consists of contaminated groundwater south of Gate 6. SE OU 10 was created when SE OU 3 was divided at the groundwater/surface water divide near Gate 6. The sources of the groundwater contamination for SE OU 10 are the formerly leaking IWWS lines in the vicinity of Building 37 (VOC-contaminants) and a release from a diesel tank fuel line in the vicinity of Building 37.
A FFS Final Report was issued in September 2003. A final Proposed Plan was completed in February 2005, and a ROD was completed in March 2006. The selected remedy for SE OU 10 is Enhanced Biodegradation with Monitored Natural Attenuation and Land Use Controls (to prevent contact with contaminated groundwater until the time the groundwater is safe for use). A final Remedial Action Work Plan was completed in April 2007. The final sodium lactate injection for the selected remedy was completed at SE OU 10 in June 2007. A long-term groundwater monitoring program has been implemented for SE OU 10 and the most recent sampling event was conducted in August 2011.
On March 5, 2009 the EPA has approved the Interim Remedial Action Completion Report for OU 10 and made a determination that the remedy, Enhanced Biodegradation with Monitored Natural Attenuation and Land Use Controls, is Operating Properly and Successfully. An ESD was completed to lift Land Use Controls on the use of groundwater.
SE OU 11 – NSIA VOC-Contaminated Groundwater North of Gate 6
SE OU 11 consists of the VOC-contaminated groundwater associated with the IWTP lagoons and IWWS gravity lines. The groundwater discharges off-post (see SE OU 6). A pilot study was initiated in September 2001 to evaluate the feasibility of treating DNAPL sources and reducing off-site contaminant migration concentrations at the property line. This study was completed by January 2003. Additional investigations to verify the vertical extent of groundwater contamination were conducted from 2005 to 2006. The results of the additional investigations will be reported in a focused feasibility study (FFS).
A vapor intrusion pilot study was conducted from July 2004 to January 2006. SE OU 11 will be addressed with SE OUs 3A and 6. The Proposed Plan will be completed in FY13.
SE OU 13 – Southern Martinsburg Shale Region Groundwater
SE OU 13 encompasses BRAC property. The Southern Martinsburg Shale Region (SMSR) is a region at LEAD that contains an area of shale bedrock surrounded by downgradient limestone bedrock. This shale bedrock is generally more resistant to weathering than the surrounding limestone formations and therefore, forms the "highland" or elevated ridges within the Phase III parcel areas. Several groundwater and surface water divides along this ridge in the SMSR cause groundwater to flow away from the SMSR.
The SMSR was originally considered to be part of VOC-contaminated groundwater SE OU 10 and SE OU 11. Based on its geologic and topographic setting, it was thought that the SMSR would be unaffected by the known and potential VOC sources located downgradient of the SMSR because groundwater flows from the SMSR into the lower lying valley areas underlain by limestone. Therefore, a groundwater investigation was initiated in 1999 to establish that the SMSR was not impacted by any previous industrial activities at Letterkenny. The results of four rounds of groundwater sampling, conducted in late 1999 through 2000 and in 2002, showed no VOC groundwater contamination in the SMSR. Based on this finding, the SMSR was redefined as SE OU 13, and a no further action ROD was signed for SE OU 13 in August 2003. SE OU 13 was part of the Phase III BRAC property transfer completed in January 2004.
SE OU 14 – Former Test Track Area
SE OU 14 was created in 2007 to track sites in Army-retained land that were formerly administered under the BRAC program and are now in the ER,A program as a result of the revised BRAC boundary. SE OU 14 consists of the Former Test Track in the Disposal Area, Areas E and F, and the Building 349 Soil Staging Area. The RI/RA for the Former Test Track and Areas E and F was finalized in 2004. This RI/RA showed that risks are within acceptable levels for commercial/industrial use. A RI was completed for the Building 349 Soil Staging Area in FY10 and the FS will be completed in FY13.

Rain expected Monday afternoon, cooler temps for Tuesday in Metro Detroit
Updated On: Jun 17 2013 03:14:20 PM EDT
It has been a very summerlike start to the week with sunshine and temps quickly soaring into the 80s around Metro Detroit this Monday afternoon.
There is a cold front over Northern Lower Michigan moving very slowly to the south. So, we will see scattered rain and thundershowers late this afternoon and evening as the warm air meets up with this cold fron. Any storm development will be scattered with the chance for a brief heavy downpour and some isolated lightning. If you get a shower, it will be brief but it could slightly delay your early evening plans.
Again, not everyone will see rain although it would be nice as the rest of the week looks dry. Look for a few more scattered showers late tonight into the early overnight hours before conditions calm down.
Tuesday will be a bit cooler after the passage of the cold front. High temps will be about 10 degrees cooler tomorrow reaching the mid 70s with light winds NE 5-12 mph. Wednesday looks like a repeat performance staying dry and mild in the 70s. We will slowly warm up towards the end of the week making it back into the low 80s by Thursday or Friday. The computer models are showing signs of rain this weekend but it appears that the storm threat will hold off until Sunday.

A collection of relevant and timely media clips and resources.
Posted on February 11, 2013
Contact your state Representative TODAY in support of House Bill 1563
Tomorrow, the Indiana House of Representatives is likely to vote on House Bill 1563. Last week, HB 1563 was reported unanimously by the House Natural Resources Committee. It is time for you to contact your state Representative and respectfully urge him or her to vote in favor of HB 1563.
HB 1563, sponsored by state Representative Sean Eberhart (R-57), includes important pro-hunting reform language that is fully supported by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. If passed and enacted into law, HB 1563 would allow hunters in Indiana to use lawfully-possessed suppressors (also referred to as silencers) on firearms while hunting. While suppressors do not eliminate the sound of a firearm, they do reduce the muzzle report in a manner similar to the way that a muffler reduces exhaust noise from a vehicle.
Please contact your state Representative TODAY and urge him or her to support House Bill 1563. For help identifying your state Representative and their contact information, please click here.
Currently, more than half of the states allow hunters to use suppressors while hunting. There are numerous benefits to hunting with suppressed firearms, including:
Recently, Arizona, Oklahoma and Texas adopted new rules allowing for the use of suppressors when hunting game. It's time that hunters in Indiana are able to enjoy the same opportunities available to sportsmen in more than half of the country. For more information on hunting with suppressors, click here.
Again, please contact your state Representative today and urge him or her to support House Bill 1563.
While HB 1563 has passed in committee and will be considered on the House floor, no action has been taken on House Bill 1473. Sponsored by state Representative Jim Lucas (R-69), HB 1473 would allow a person who legally possesses a firearm to keep that firearm stored in a locked trunk of their vehicle, a glove box, or stored out of plain sight in the vehicle while on school property. This would allow parents to park on school property for a meeting with a teacher or principal to do so without the fear of breaking the law.
HB 1473 was referred to the House Committee on Public Policy, but has yet to be scheduled for a hearing. Action must be taken soon for this bill to be able to pass during the 2013 Regular Session. Please contact state Representative Bill Davis (R-33), Chairman of the House Committee on Public Policy, TODAY and ask that he place HB 1473 on the calendar for a committee hearing. Chairman Davis can be contacted by phone at (317) 234-3827 and by email form here.
Hunting with Suppressors
Yesterday, House Bill 1563 was reported unanimously by the House Natural Resources Committee. HB 1563 now goes to the full House of Representatives where it could be scheduled for consideration as early as tomorrow. FULL STORY
The 2013 session of the Indiana General Assembly is off to a great start with multiple pro-gun bills being filed. Some great strides have been made over recent years in Indiana and your NRA will continue working to move forward to protect the rights of the law-abiding gun owners in the Hoosier State. FULL STORY
Established in 1975, the Institute for Legislative Action (ILA) is the "lobbying" arm of the National Rifle Association of America. ILA is responsible for preserving the right of all law-abiding individuals in the legislative, political, and legal arenas, to purchase, possess and use firearms for legitimate purposes as guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.READ MORE

Publisher Plans To Bundle Out With The Advocate For Subscribers
Here Media CEO Paul Colichman laid out a new marketing plan for his company's gay publications The Advocate and Out, in a recent letter to readers.
After revealing that four members of The Advocate's editorial team were let go in order to make room for new staffers who can work across Here Media's many platforms — print, online and broadcast TV — Colichman announced a new plan to send The Advocate's subscribers a copy of Out every month as well:
"The recent closures of Gourmet, Portfolio, Genre, and other magazines have shown the weaknesses of the print publication model. The rising costs of paper, printing, and postage have become a major problem. Therefore, we plan to greatly reduce these costs by jointly marketing The Advocate and Out magazines. We will fulfill Advocate subscriptions via joint delivery with Out. Advocate subscribers will continue to receive their monthly magazine along with a copy of Out at no extra charge. This move will also allow us to continue to offer Out at affordable subscription prices, either as a stand-alone title or with the choice to receive The Advocate as well. The strategy preserves our ability to deliver the same high-quality print magazines while allocating additional resources to editorial content."
