In the past year, several EU Member States have
successfully prevented attacks by Islamist terrorist

2010, 179 individuals were arrested for offences
linked to Islamist terrorism, representing a 50% increase
compared with 2009. Furthermore a higher
proportion of those arrests related to the preparation
of attacks in the EU (47% compared with 10%
in 2009).

December 07, 2011
Austin Ainsworth of Guntersville has been appointed to the Alabama Conservation Advisory Board by Gov. Robert Bentley.
Ainsworth, an avid outdoorsman and conservationist, graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Finance and joined the management team at Dream Ranch, a family-owned commercial hunting facility in Marshall County.

Ainsworth, a lifetime member of Safari Club International and active member in the SCI Alabama chapter, replaces George Harbin of Gadsden on the Conservation Advisory Board.

The Commissioner of Conservation and Natural Resources serves as the ex-officio secretary of the board.
The board assists in formulating policies for the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and examines all rules and regulations.

By: The Associated Press
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - An Albuquerque businessman who lost the GOP gubernatorial primary four years ago is setting his sights on Democratic U.S. Sen. Tom Udall's seat.
Republican Allen Weh is scheduled to announce his candidacy Thursday morning.
A veteran and former New Mexico Republican Party chairman, Weh is CEO of CSI Aviation Services. That's a charter aircraft and leasing company he founded more than 30 years ago.
Weh has deep pockets. In 2010, he finished second behind Gov. Susana Martinez in a five-way GOP primary after lending his campaign $1.6 million.
Udall is making his first bid for re-election after winning the seat held for more than 30 years by retired Republican Sen. Pete Domenici. The most recent federal reports show he had cash-on-hand of $1.86 million.

Dancin' Kate Hansen explains her Beyonce warm-up routine
Feb 11, 2014, 9:16 AM EST
U.S. luger Kate Hansen captivated onlookers on Monday, but the most captivating performance might have come before her two luge runs. Her spirited dance routine just needs to be seen to be believed, but luckily, she provided NBC with an in-depth explanation of what inspires those moves.
As it happens, it's "strictly Beyonce."
The 21-year-old explained that listening to her "girl B" sends her off "into her own world" in which she is clearly uninhibited when it comes to elaborate public dancing.
RELATED: A breakdown of the g-forces and top speeds of Erin Hamlin's run
Her analysis is priceless, and Hansen even gives NBC a bonus dance after asking reporter Lewis Johnson to "drop a beat."
Seriously, though, you won't regret watching it.

I decided to see "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist" because even though "Rachel Getting Married" looked good, I knew I couldn't handle a movie with so many ups and downs on a Friday night. I dragged two friends to the not-so-highly acclaimed movie, which Fandango classifies as "teen movie" and "comedy," and I was nervous they would kill me when it was horrible. But the entire theater, including me and my friends, laughed and cheered through the entire film.

Great thank you apart from the change of date of the rocket launch! This trip from the UK was a treat for my partner's 50th birthday. He had always wanted to see a launch and research showed that one was due to take off on 30th September, the day before his birthday. We planned our visit to Cape Canaveral at that time so that we could watch the launch and visit the Space Centre. We learnt, too late, that the rocket had taken off earlier in September. We did, however, really enjoy our visit and spent 2 full days there and looked at everything available. One other disappointment was that when I wrote to the Space Centre to ask about the launch and to enquire how we might be able to see it, they did not reply. Everything you did was great and we loved Florida, Kennedy Space Centre and the whole experience. Thank you.

Attributed to the workshop of André-Charles Boulle
French, Paris, about 1710 - 1715
Oak veneered with satiné (bloodwood); gilt bronze mounts
H: 2 ft. 9 3/4 in. x W: 4 ft. 3 3/4 in. x D: 1 ft. 11 in.
This small, solidly constructed chest of drawers is known as a commode, literally meaning "convenient" in French. Commodes first appeared at the end of the 1600s, replacing large chests for storage. With interiors divided by drawers, the commode provided a better distribution of interior space in a more elegant and accessible form than the earlier large chests. The commode became a very fashionable form of furniture during the 1700s. In addition to its three drawers (a long one on top and two smaller ones below), this commode contains several other, less obvious storage places. The large, central gilt bronze mount is attached to the front of a narrow drawer, and the two lower drawers each have a deep base that was once hidden by a false bottom. The swelled concave and convex form is fairly typical for the early 1700s. The heavy form and massive sculptural mounts on this piece are typical of the workmanship of André-Charles Boulle, one of the most famous Parisian ébénistes in the early 1700s.

Days of Our Lives Round Table: Is Nick Dead?by Christine Orlando at . Updated at . Comments
What a week on Days of Our Lives! Nick was shot but with most of Salem wanting him dead it's anyone's guess who finally pulled the trigger.
Our TV Fanatics Nick McHatton and Christine Orlando is joined by KathyJ from MyHourglass a Days Fan Forum to discuss who shot Nick, will he die, and what was their favorite scenes of the week.
Who do you think shot Nick?
Nick: I really, really want Sonny or Will to shoot him. It gives their mostly squeaky clean characters some edge to them, but I doubt they are the ones who did so. I'm actually thinking Rafe is the culprit since he walks in basically right before Nick does.
KathyJ: I think Gabi shot Nick. Nick knew too many of her secrets - her part in his attempted murder and her part in kidnapping Melanie. Nick was forcing his way into Ari's relationship with Will and Sonny and that would bring the wrath of Sami and Kate down on her. She thought this was the only way to protect Ari.
Christine: There are so many possibilities! Most of Salem wanted the little weasel dead but I too am going with Gabi. Knowing that Nick had manipulated her once again and that her daughter's future was on the line may have pushed her over the edge.
Will Nick die?
Nick: Yeah, he's toast. Rest in piece Nick Fallon.
KathyJ: Yes, I think Nick will die.
Christine: I think this could be it for Nick and I'm surprisingly torn over it. I really thought I'd cheer when he was finally gone for good but when he's really bad he's actually kind of fun.
Do you care if Jordan stays or goes?
Nick: Jordan threatening to leave again? So surprising! I honestly do not care about her character at all. They've done absolutely nothing with her. I love Chrishell from her AMC days, but she's not being used at all. Even Ben is more interesting at the moment.
KathyJ: I don't really care if Jordan stays or goes. But since we have invested so much time in this character I think we deserve to know her secret.
Christine: I'm so tired of Jordan. I don't care what her secret is, I just wish she'd stop taking air time from characters I care about.
What will Daniel do with the information he found on the island?
Nick: I'm hoping he will ultimatum Nicole. It's getting ridiculous how long she's keeping this information under wraps. Now that Eric's proposed to her too.
KathyJ: I think Daniel will confront Nicole and demand that she tells Eric the truth. Daniel will threaten to tell Eric if Nicole doesn't.
Christine: Yeah, things don't look good for Nicole. I don't think Daniel's going to be willing to keep her secret. I agree with KathyJ. I think he'll force her to tell Eric the truth.
What was your favorite scene or story of the week?
Nick: I've been waiting a very long time to see Nick Fallon get what's coming to him. It was shocking because I wasn't expecting it at all, but I love a good whodunit soap storyline.
KathyJ: My favorite scenes this week were Julie and Nick. I liked Julie relating to Nick on a personal level and trying to convince him that he could change his life. I was glad to see the writers draw on Julie's history and even a mention of Nick's mother's problems. Julie was there to hold him after he had been shot. At least, one person loved him in the crowd of haters.
Christine: As much as Julie annoys me, I really did enjoy her trying to connect with Nick and get him to find help. Second was Sami trying to do the same and Nick throwing it back in her face. The guy is (or was) seriously twisted.

Jordan and Ben are more than likely Dimerras or maybe Kiriakis or some family that are bad news n they are running from them.
What is wrong with you people!!! Nick needed help after he got out of prison and said he got it but I don't believe he did. The real "bad" people are the those who are getting away with attempted murder. Evidently they were in their right minds????? This show is not setting a good example of moral behavior by letting those who plotted the murder or those who did the actual shooting. Nick did some bad things, but he was mentally sick in my opinion and should have had treatment.
Bonnie, you're looking to a soap opera to uphold moral ideas? What planet are you on?
If I heard correctly, more than one shot was fired at Nick and; if so, there could be multiple murderers.
I believe more than one shot was fired at Nick. Maybe, should he die, there will be multiple killers.
Gabi did it. She told Sonny and Will that everything is alright now. I thought I would be happy about Nick, but I actuall feel sorry for him. Melanie ruined that sweet innocent young man when he cme yo Salem.
I hope that the show will still be as good without all the people that are leaving. It takes alot of years and literally, I grew up with Bradys!! I dont want them to go!! But I understand if they want to do something different. Its their lives. Oh....Gabi did it.
I feel the same way Kimberly. Nick grew on me. He gave everyone else something to do. I also think Gabi did it. Otherwise, she faces a lifetime having to kowtow to Nick. Great round table guys! http://myhourglass.proboards.c...

Morbid obesity is associated with a multitude of health problems, many of which increase the risk of death. It is estimated more than over 300,000 deaths a year are caused by obesity-related illnesses - three times the number of people who die each year from breast cancer and colon cancer combined. Therefore, the need to lose weight is not simply cosmetic, but lifesaving. The good news is that most obesity-related health problems improve, and some are even cured, after weight loss surgery.

Did you ever wonder what happens to all those millions of plastic bottles after you put them in the recycling bin? Prepare to be surprised - Marks & Spencer and British Home Stores have recently announced they would each be selling a range of schoolwear made from recycled plastic bottles. The bottles have been chopped up into flakes, melted and then made into a polyester yarn, which is woven into cloth. The end result is a range of fleeces, polo shirts, trousers and skirts that will go on sale in the summer, and apparently don't melt under an iron. I'd watch out for those lunchboxes though, if I were mum!

Background Opioid-induced hyperalgesia is a clinical phenomenon, characterized by increasing in pain in patients who are receiving increasing doses of opioids. This Fast Fact reviews the clinical findings and treatment options. See also Fast Fact #215 on opioid poorly-responsive pain.
Clinical features of opioid hyperalgesia:
Proposed mechanisms:
Conclusion Opioids can lead to a paradoxical increase in pain. Opioid-induced hyperalgesia should be considered in any patient with increasing pain that is not responding to increasing opioids. Referral to pain/palliative care professionals is appropriate to help develop a management strategy.

Loss of sexual desire is a common complaint among men diagnosed with cancer and undergoing treatment, especially in men taking medication to decrease the amount of testosterone in the body. Because testosterone plays such an important role in the male libido, a man's sexual desire drops substantially when levels of testosterone have been diminished. This type of treatment is known as androgen deprivation therapy and is used for advanced prostate cancer. Loss of sexual desire is extremely distressing to men as it is usually a part of their everyday lives.
What can you do? Most of all, it is important to keep open lines of communication with your partner and your health care provider. Other ideas might include:

Erectile dysfunction is also common among men undergoing cancer treatment and men who have undergone surgery. Although the world would not know that you are having difficulty with erectile dysfunction, the ability to have erections and be sexual is a part of who you are, your self esteem, and your masculinity. This is very distressing and can affect your relationship with your partner.
What can you do?It is common for men to be prescribed oral medication to increase the chance of erections. It is important to talk to your health care provider about this topic as there are several options that may be available to you. Options may include:
Like women, men have body image issues too, and it is not uncommon to focus your attention on the affected area. Maybe you have been diagnosed with colon cancer and have a colostomy. It is perfectly normal to feel shy about showing your body to your partner. You might be afraid of what their reaction will be. Consider allowing your partner to see your body. This is a chance to share with your partner. Chances are your partner has imagined far worse than what actually exists. What's important is that you keep communicating with your partner.

"I would define the poetic effect as the capacity that a text displays for continuing to generate different readings, without ever being completely consumed."
"We may not understand how the spirit works; but the effect of the spirit on the lives of men is there for all to see; and the only unanswerable argument for Christianity is a Christian life. No man can disregard a religion and a faith and a power which is able to make bad men good. . ."
"The women's movement is taking a different form right now, and it is because it has been so effective and so successful that there's a huge counter movement to try to stop it, to try to divide women from one another, to try to almost foment divisiveness."
"As I see it, the most effective way to do this is frankly to accept these historical tales for what they are now known to be - folklore - and treat them in such a fashion that the realistic-minded, sophisticated people of our generation accept them... I sincerely hope that this painting will help reawaken interest in the cherry tree tale and other bits of American folklore that are too good to lose."
"Neil's effect on the band was immediate and very fulfilling. He adds a certain edge to the sound and, of course, he is an incredible musician. We became a better band because of the inclusion of Neil Young."

British and American keyboards
|Comparison of
American and
British English
There are two major English language computer keyboard layouts, the United States layout and the United Kingdom layout defined in BS 4822[1] (48-key version). Both are QWERTY layouts. Users in the United States do not frequently need to make use of the £ (pound) and € (euro) currency symbols, which are common needs in the United Kingdom and Ireland, although the $ (dollar sign) symbol is also provided as standard on UK and Irish keyboards. In Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands, and India, the US keyboard is used.
PC keyboards[edit]
The UK variant of the IBM Enhanced keyboard commonly used with personal computers designed for Microsoft Windows differs from the US layout as follows:
- The UK keyboard has 1 more key than the U.S. keyboard (UK=62, US=61, on the typewriter keys)
- The Alt key to the right of the space bar is replaced by an AltGr key
- The # symbol is replaced by the £ symbol and a 102nd key is added next to the Enter key to accommodate the displaced #
- € is produced by AltGr + 4
- @ and " are swapped
- the ~ is moved to the # key, and is replaced by a ¬ symbol on the backquote (`) key; AltGr + backquote produces ¦
- the \ key is moved to the left of the Z key
- the Enter key spans two rows, and is narrower to accommodate the # key
- Some UK keyboards do not label Backspace, Enter, Tab and Shift in words
On laptop computers, the | and \ key is often placed next to the space bar.
Early versions of Windows handled both the differences between the two keyboards and the differences between American English and British English by having two English language options — a UK setting and a US setting. While adequate for users in the United States, United Kingdom, and Ireland, this solution caused difficulty in other English-speaking countries. In many Commonwealth countries and other English-speaking jurisdictions (e.g., Canada, Australia, the Caribbean nations, Hong Kong, Malaysia, India, Singapore, New Zealand, and South Africa), local spelling conformed more closely to British English usage, while the supplied keyboard was printed with the United States layout on the keys. People in these countries were forced to choose between a keyboard layout incompatible with their hardware, or having their spell checker software flag the British English spelling of words such as "colour", "centre", etc.
However, in more recent editions, the number of options was increased, allowing users to select the correct keyboard and dialect independently. For example, one is given a number of default options for locality that will usually correctly match dialect and keyboard. Further, even if your hardware keyboard layout does not match the device driver software layout that was pre-selected, you can change that without changing the regional setting.
Since the standard US keyboard layout in Microsoft Windows offers no way of inputting any sort of diacritic or accent, this makes it unsuitable for all but a handful of languages unless the US International layout is used. The US International layout changes the `, ~, ^, " (for ¨), and ' (for ´) keys into dead keys for producing accented characters. The US International layout also uses the right alt (AltGr) as a modifier to enter special characters. Although there is no UK International layout on Windows, XP SP2 and above provide a UK Extended layout which, if activated, will allow the user to enter a wide variety of diacritics (such as grave accents) which are not accommodated by the standard UK layout.
Apple Macintosh keyboards[edit]
The non-standard default U.S. layout on Apple Macintosh computers allows input of diacritical characters, whereby the entire MacRoman character set is directly available,[clarification needed]. Apple supplies a "British" keyboard layout with the following differences:
- The # symbol is replaced by the £ symbol (as on PC keyboards); the # is available by pressing ⌥ Option+3
- More recent Apple British keyboards move the backquote/~ key to the left of the Z key and replace it with a section sign (§) and a plus-minus sign (±) respectively.
- The Enter key spans two rows and is shaped similarly to the Enter key of many non-US PC keyboards.

Programs A-Z
KWMR's programming reflects the wide variety of interests of our volunnteer programmers, and reflects the character and nature of the people and places of West Marin. All hosts, whether of music or talk shows, regularly bring on guests, principally from our West Marin villages, but also from around the Bay Area and the world.
Between 8 am and midnight, KWMR airs about two hours of music to every one hour of talk. We cover music of almost all genres: Americana/Bluegrass, Celtic, Classical, Latin, Jazz & Swing, Blues, Alt Rock, World, Lounge, and Funk. We even have a show highlighting just the new releases in our music library. Bringing live performances on-air is part of the fun for music hosts and listeners!
Our interview hosts cover culture, politics, environment and ecology, agriculture, literature, spirituality and psychology, health and science, the performing arts, parenting issues... with about 6 hours a week of Spanish-language and bi-lingual music and talk shows.
KWMR has a process for training new programmers in the technical skills and interview/host skills needed for the live shows. Programmers who become competent in these areas can then go on to learn audio recording and editing in the production studio, field recording, news production, and remote broadcasts using phone lines and RPU gear. If you are interested in volunteering as a programmer click here to find out more.

The Night Slugs co-boss mans the decks for a two-hour journey through dance music.
Following L-Vis 1990′s absolutely loaded Night Slugs mixtape, Bok Bok's mix from Sunday night's Rinse show reflects equally on the label's wide-ranging influences as much as where it's going.
Expect nonstop, mutated house and techno with detours into disco and grime. At about the 50 minute mark, ballroom beats originator (and Bok Bok remixer) Vjuan Allure takes control for a rollicking set of vogue grooves and Ha-sample jaunts. No tracklist yet, but stream/download the mix below.

He re-created his signature stage role in Poppy (1936) the following year and, after a career lull of several years, starred with Mae West in My Little Chickadee (1940), cementing his status as a staple of American cinema with a knack for unforgettable one-liners.
Although Fields's Hollywood persona was that of a man who loved to drink but hated women and children, he actually had a wife and a son, and was even known to spoil his grandchildren. He died on Dec. 25, 1946 -- Christmas Day.

I started the Stevens Startup Society a few months ago as a way to bring the startup mentality and entrepreneurial culture that is thriving in NYC to Stevens Institute of Technology. While the school does a great job of embracing entrepreneurship in a commercial and traditional aspect, Stevens could definitely do a better job at preparing its students to think like a startup entrepreneur
This class will run every Wednesday night at 9:00pm at the Stevens Library. Each class will focus on a major topic related to startup entrepreneurship and product development. Participating in the previous week's class will not be a prerequisite for attending any future classes.
I will also bring in relevant guest speakers from the NYC Tech Community when available and appropriate.
Come join us for some great discussions about the startup community and please spread the word to anyone you know who may be interested.
I graduated from Stevens Institute of Technology in 2006 with an Engineering degree and went to work for a major international bank. I worked there for almost 4 years climbing the ranks and leading large teams on multimillion-dollar projects before I left to start my own Wealth Management firm. I quickly felt the calling of the NYC startup community and began working with a couple of developers on some startup ideas.
Currently, I am partner at NYC Dev Shop (https://nycdevshop.com) and cofounder of NY Tech Day (http://nytechday.com). I am incredibly passionate about the startup community, learning, and mentoring, and have made some great connections which I plan to leverage to make this class incredibly beneficial for everyone involved.

Brian Johnson, Recreation Director – Operating Policies Discussion
Mr. Johnson said now that he had been on the job for approximately one month he was looking for feedback/approval of the followi= ng policies:
1= ) = No consumption of alcohol at any Town Facilities or functions.
Mr. McDevitt said this ite= m was an Ordinance that was passed years ago at Town Meeting and was enforceable by = the Police Department. He suggest= ed posting signs at the park entrances. Mr. Haverty asked if the Ordinance detailed enforcement action. Mr. McDevitt said it was a misdeme= anor that had an associated fine. =
2= ) = All Recreation positions whether paid or unpaid will be posted on the Town website.
) =
program participants will make payment in full before participating;
scholarship applications awarded by need (partial or complete) will be
available in the Recreation office and forwarded to the Selectmen for appro=
val. There was a discussion regarding t=
scholarship application process.
The Selectmen delegated Mr. Gaydos to review the applications for the
Selectmen which would be posted on the SSLVPN. Mr. McDevitt was asked by Mr. Lynd=
e to
convey a concern regarding fees. He
said there had been a long-standing practice of the coach's child not
paying a fee if they were on the team.&nbs=
He questioned if it would be a disincentive to people volunteering to
coach. Mr. Haverty, who had e=
with Little League and various other sports, didn't feel that not hav=
a discount for a coach's child would be a disincentive. Mr. Johnson also didn't feel=
it would be a deterrence to charge a coach's child. The Selectmen reconfirmed the poli=
that all participants (in a recreation program) would pay. Mr. Haverty asked if there was a m=
criteria used in awarding scholarships.&nb=
Mr. Gaydos said in general they tried to use the same outline as Gen=
Assistance. He said a family =
had to
demonstrate they had need.
4= ) = Program pricing will be full price for the first child and a discount for subsequent children. Scholarships will be awarded based upon need.
5= ) = Refunds for program will not be made once the program started. Mr. McDevitt suggested making sure paperwork signed by participants was clear regarding the refund policy. Mr. Haverty felt there had to be a mechanism to prorate a refund because there would always be exceptions. Mr. Viger pointed out that a lot o= f the programs required a certain amount of money to operate and the risk of givi= ng partial rebates was that certain activities may have to be funded out of the budget or the pocket of someone else. He said that would defeat the purpose of having a self-funded program. Mr. Danevich support= ing reviewing a pro-rated refund as long as the hard costs were recouped. Mr. Johnson said he would work wit= h Mr. Gaydos to create a policy.
6= ) = Registration is not guaranteed until payment is made.&n= bsp; Mr. Danevich suggested the wording 'Registration is not consid= ered accepted until full payment is made'.
7= ) = Field trips only available to those who pre-pay.= Payment due one week prior to field trip. Mr. Johnson said if a field trip required more notice, he would address at that time.
Mr. Danevich suggested adding the information to the Recreation home page. He said= the fee information (i.e. reduction, refund, scholarships) had to be very prominent. He said a policy f= or handling scholarships would also need to be drafted.
Discussion – Department 3-year Plans
Transfer Stat= ion – Mr. Gaydos provided a summary of the 2008 plan: 1) update/revise the informational flier and update/incorporate the new legislation and reiterate the facility rules; 2) explore the ability to give the facility operators the authority to take action against consistent rule violators; 3) explore options and costs of building expansion to possibly handle the flow differently; 4) begin discussion on the feasibility of the Pay as You Throw program. In 2009: 1) if succe= ssful, present the Pay as You Throw details and implementation process; 2) reduce = the number of part-time attendants and add one full-time attendant; and 3) cont= inue to monitor House Bill 503, which would add a surcharge of $2.50 per ton to trash disposal costs. In 2010= : 1) skid steer should be replaced – due on CIP; and 2) hydraulic rams to compactor should be rebuilt. = In 2011: consider feasibility to replace 75-yard trailers with 100-yard trailers.
Mr. McDevitt said he would like the Transfer Station to address a solution to the recycling of plastic bags. Mr. Gaydos said he could ask Trans= fer Superintendent Bruce Mason to research.&nb= sp;
= o:p>
Mr. Viger asked if there would be any improvement need= s at the existing center addressed over the next three years. Mr. Danevich believed the focus was getting a new facility funded and built which was outside three years at th= is point.
Mr. Gaydos said as for the Transfer Station, Mr. Mason addressed the actual facility building because he knows that that's d= irectly affecting the user.
E-911 Update
Mr. Gaydos provided a brief summary regarding the E-911 system and read aloud a letter sent to residents whose road name would be changed. Along with the letter residents would receive a chart indicating what their road would be named a= nd a letter from the Postmaster explaining what residents should do during the r= oad name process. (SEE ATTACHED)<= span style=3D'mso-spacerun:yes'> There were twenty-five roads that = would have name changes.
Mr. Danevich said once phase I was done they would beg= in phase II with the next set of roads. Mr. Gaydos said the goal was to continue to address the roads and ma= ke the changes effective July 1st of succeeding years. He said there would be public hear= ings so information could get out.
Mr. Haverty said there had been a letter regarding
Magnolia Drive
Mr. Gaydos informed that the Highway Department had wo= rked a lot of hours this season and the equipment had taken a beating. He said the plow truck that was scheduled for replacement at the upcoming Town Meeting had the front portio= n, which connects the plow to the truck, rust off. He said if they decided to keep it= they would be putting more money going into it than the truck was worth. He said the truck had failed the T= own and needed to be replaced. = p>
Mr. Danevich asked how the Highway Department's = maintenance and salt budget was doing. Mr. Gaydos said more money was spent on salt than they intended to. The original pricing was very good= and they had continued to get it; however, availability became a problem and th= ey had tried to supplement with different ideas. Mr. Gaydos said the repair budget = was shot because a lot of equipment needed repair.
Mr. Gaydos said bids were opened earlier in the day fo= r the Gumpas Hill culvert replacement. He said there were six bidders; the lowest was from Hudson Paving for $109,925. He read the other b= ids aloud.
MOTION:<= o:p>
(Haverty/McDevitt) To award the Gumpas Hill culver replacement bid to Hudson Paving and Excavation for $109,925.
(4-0-0) The motion carri= ed.
Mr. Viger said he attended Candidate's Night whe= re a question was raised about the amount of money in uncollected taxes this year. He spoke to Mr. Gaydos,= who checked the number, and summarized that the 2007 tax bill was $26,787,073 a= nd at this time the outstanding balance is $863,564 which is a collection rate= of 96.8% on the tax base. He then reviewed the uncollected taxes for the years 2005, 2006 & 2007 which totaled $1.1 million dollars. Mr. Danevich said every year it almost sounded like the Town was on track; some people pay late and pay the penalty. He said it was still unacceptable, but for illustration point it didn't seem out of the 'norm' for a typical year for the Town.
Mr. Haverty said Community Night would be held
He said the Fire Station would hav=
