You know the saying: "Hindsight is always 20/20." Well, today's tragedy is the perfect example of that. It's easy for many to say officers should not have opened fire on a crowded street, or they didn't have to kill the gunman, but let's face it... if someone was pointing a gun at you, and you were armed, don't you think you'd shoot before he/she pulled the trigger? I can't say I would have reacted differently given the circumstances. I'm just not quite sure 16 rounds were necessary.
A man with a grudge gunned down his former boss outside the Empire State Building today, sparking a shootout with police officers, and leaving nine people injured. Police say around 9 a.m., 58-year-old Jeffrey Johnson confronted his former boss on the Fifth Avenue side of the landmark building, and allegedly fired three shots. The victim was identified as 41-year-old Steven Ercolino, Vice President of Hazan Imports, a women's apparel company where Johnson was laid off about a year ago.
After Johnson opened fire, authorities say he walked off. But a construction worker told two police officers on security duty outside the Empire State Building what had happened. They officers gave chase, gunfire was exchanged, and Johnson was killed. Police Commissioner Ray Kelly says Johnson had pulled a gun from a bag he was carrying and pointed it at the officers. Kelly says the two officers fired a total of 14 shots; nine bystanders were wounded. Kelly says investigators believe police may be responsible for some of those injured, but all are expected to survive. Investigators confirm the gun used was from Spain but are still looking into whether it was legal.
Mayor Bloomberg called the shooting "a terrible tragedy," and said, "there's no doubt that the situation would have been even more tragic, but for some extraordinary acts of heroism." Earlier this morning on his radio show, the Mayor addressed the issue of gun control saying, "the argument guns don't kill people, people kill people, is one of the most disingenuous things you can say. It does take a person to pull the trigger, but if they didn't have the guns… We are the only developed country in the world with this problem." What do you say?
What's your reaction to this morning's shooting outside the Empire State Building? Is it yet another example of the nation's need to reform gun laws, or is this an isolated incident involving a former disgruntled employee? Do you agree with the Mayor's remarks about guns on his radio show this morning?

Too bad that with 10,000 cops all over Manhattan alone, standing around shootin the breeze, they virtually never get to a shooting before it happens. Maybe they should pound the beat more and lose some of the gut they're carrying around.
The shooting today further illustrates how terribly violent our society has become, and the easily availability of guns is just making matters worse, we need to end this madness before we all become victims of gun violence.
Felix Bay Ridge
It's time we put a stop to gun violence. Especially that perpetrated by cops who apparently have never learned how to shoot straight.
Had the cops not made a run at the gunman, instead walking slightly faster from behind, giving no indication of pursuit, or alerting other cops, maybe undercover, ahead of the gunman, he might have been taken into custody or shot without hitting nine bystanders.
For a cops to fire off 14 shots in a crowded area such as that around the ESB is unacceptable. Apparently the cops gave little thought to the consequences of gun violence by cop.
JoePort Richmond, SI
Pure senseless!!! I'm 57 years young, native New yorker and today is my b-day. I'm not happy nor celebrating. :-( I look forward to relocating where crime and violence is little to none.
IMO, many need help they're not getting. :-( I think EVERYONE should reach out a bit more to their fellow man and women to stop the violence among us. It's been a very long time since the media went a day without reporting someone was KILLED by self afflicting or murdered by a spouse, relative or NYPD in New York City.
The NRA keeps saying an armed citizenry will intervene and halt incidents like today's Empire State Building shooting and Aurora, CO's Batman movie shooting, but when has that ever happened? When will the NRA stop telling lies? If the NRA weren't always waving their guns at us, I think more people would challenge them.

No matter how strict our gun control laws are, guns will always find theirway into the hands of criminals. Yes, better controls will reduce the readyavailability of guns, but what we really need are stricter controls on gun-totingcriminals, including longer sentences for the illegal possession of a handgun,consecutive sentences for the use of a firearm in the commission of a crime,and the widespread use of high-tech remote weapon sensing technology, likethe terahertz imaging detection systems being developed by the Pentagon inpartnership with the NYPD with which police officers can covertly scan a crowdof pedestrians for concealed weapons, thus establishing reasonable suspicionand/or probable cause for the interception, wanding, and subsequent searchingof those detected.
The shooter in today's homicide would not have been deterred by gun laws,as he was bent on murder no matter what the consequences, but, if he hadbeen caught and caged sooner, perhaps this crime might have been prevented.The low-tech, Constitutionally questionable stop and frisk program is a spit inthe ocean compared to this new technology that will surely have a chilling effecton the carrying of illegal firearms and that will do so without the invasive searchingand racial profiling that have tainted police efforts thus far. Welcome to the future!

I am greatly sadden over another shooting in which left death and wounded and this one at the Empire State Building. Mayor Bloomberg is right we need stronger gun laws. We are a city under seize and need to have laws that prevent guns being placed in the wrong hands. I also think that once a person receives a gun permit that person should be forced once a year to be tested for their mental condition or else that permit will be revoked. Our friends ,neighbors and family members are being killed and for what? Frederick Glen Oaks Village
My prayers go out to all the victims of this tragedy. However, I am concerned to here that some of the vics may have been shot by police, and may continue to show nyc officers once again shooting excessively. Why 14 shots and no reporting that the shooter opened fire. I hope commissioner kelly will look into this, but I have my doubts.
Isn't Anyone else conceded that 9 out of 14 shots fired missed the mark ?Don't these officers learn how to shoot a gun ?
Jim UWS
The recent shooting incident near the Empire State building which culminated with 2 police officers shooting and killing the gunman,again shows how our police officers put their lives at risk to protect the people of our city.It is indeed very tragic that an innocent man was killed by this deranged lunatic before the police were able to shoot him. The 9 other innocent people who were caught in the shooting were very lucky to have suffered only minor injuries;had this maniac entered into the Empire State building,he might have shot many other innocent people. Thankfully ,that did not occur thanks to swift and necessary action by the police officers ,who were alerted by a concerned citizen, a construction worker when the shooting first began.Mayor Bloomberg again has called for swift action regarding gun control,and he is absolutely right. The situation in our city and country has really started to spiral out of control with all of these shootings,from Colorado to Wisconsin to the Bronx, Brooklyn and New York City. As the old adage says-"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Our lazy Congress needs to get off its idle backside and tackle this very serious issue of gun control that is totally out of contro-NOW!!
my prayers are with the families who lost loved ones and to those who were injured obviously i don't condone this at all, but i feel its really the economy, when someone is fired this is not like in the past where they can find a new job. i know so many people who have lost jobs, qualified people and they look daily, really daily for jobs for years. most have either moved, or changed careers to figure out if they can find jobs in other fields. this type of crime is happening because when you lose your job, your landlord doesn't care, your credit card company and bank don't care. they just hound u and you have nowhere to turn, no where to go and you turn into someone you don't even recognize you become crazy. so just my hunch that this man didn't have work for a year, things got tough and the person who fired him, he felt was responsible for all of his hardship. we must find jobs for people i don't know how but we must you cant live without money. everyone needs a home and some money in their pocket to survive. terrible situation going on in the US right now
You ask of this is a call for gun controlled or an isolated event. Why is this seen as either/or?
A "disgruntled former employee" plus a gun = easy mass killing. Enabling our dark side is intrinsically a danger to the us all.
Casuistry in Manhattan
New York is going downhill and descending to the level of the 70s and 80s. Bloomberg needs to put more cops on the streets and open more after-school programs for kids at risk. Banning guns is not going to help because bad guys will ALWAYS get guns.
FrancesEast Village
What the heck is going on in NYC ? this is getting out of control, no one is safe from violence anymore, something must be done asap because I feel like I'm living in the wild , wild west
This tragedy was due in large part to the emotional health of a disgruntled employee.
There needs to be more structure in regards to human resources in the workplace and accountability in how employers treat workers.
Do we want to change the gun laws? Keep in mind that in 1939 Germany decided to attack England and not the United States, because they understood that Americans were armed, and would of been harder to take over then England. Also, if responsible citizens are armed, then we can defend ourselves. The police are not pro-active, but respond after the fact. It is almost impossible to get a carry permit in New York City, but the criminals walk around with guns, terrifying the law abiding citizens. EdMurry Hill
This was a horrible tragedy, but NY's gun laws are strong enough. The criminal's gun was bought in Florida. 80% of all guns used in crimes in NY are from other states. Anyone who wants to strengthen gun laws in NY don't know the facts or don't care. -Dan from Rego Park
The police are to Protect and to Serve.
WHO were they protecting by shooting 8 bystanders?
They were protecting themselves and not the public.
16 shots fired.
How many hit the assailant?
How many hit bystanders - fully half the shots fired hit innocent citizens.
A poor level of training and poor judgement by the police.
The NYPD did not follow protocol, they could have waited but they was looking for a commendation. They was suppose to call it in and let the special investigators follow him and subdue him in an appropriate manner. Nine (9) people would not have been shot. these officers actually let the FBI or Special investigators handle this case.
Why can't we use stun guns when the public is involved?
Seems that a shooting in midtown Manhattan is very big news, while small children shot by random gun play in the minority areas get a short broadcast. Let's see how long this tragedy will be headline news.
Armin Lower Manhattan
I'm from Australia and was outraged at this shooting, why do the police not use taser guns (electric shock treatment that paralyzes the person temporarily). This would have avoided putting all of those innocent bystanders at grave risk. They could have easily have been killed by accident.
We get so sick and tired to the shootings in news. They're about 3, 000 people died in 9/11, but a couple times more people die Every Single Year from gun shot! Can the Politicians do something about gun control?
Guns need to be well regulated as per the second amendment. Common sense dictates that restrictions and regulations need to be in place the same way my right to own and drive a car comes with speed limits, seat belt laws, cell phone usage laws, and child safety seats. It is senseless to not have all manner of registrations, background checks, licensing, waiting period, child safety locks, etc. These do not infringe upon the right, but rather make the world a safer place. DougStaten Island
too many bullies, too many mentally ill people!
The answer to the current illegal gun problem is fairly simple: ANYONE, regardless of age, gender, race, martial status, religion, whatever, should be given the gun they're carrying, plenty of ammo, and then shipped off immediately to Pakistan to shoot terrorists for a four-year stretch. If they survive the four years, they can come back and try to live like normal humans, if they don't survive—who cares.
Walter,New Dorp
The video should have already been released and then explained.The police officers on duty to protect from terrorism should have addressed the situation better. The officers had to be informed by a construction worker that murder had taken place just a few feet away from the. Why didn't they hear the shot fired like everyone else?
The fact that bystander are casualties and the assailant is dead shows a great deal of incompetence on the officers behalf. Geoffrey Johnson did not open fire on the public. He killed an ex-coworker outside of the office which leads you to believe this was a premeditated murder not an act of terrorism.
Those that are calling for Obama to make a statement or take action should also question Republican Paul Ryan if he still loves his gun. This is the second time a shooting has occurred at the empire state building involving a gun purchased in Florida. Why are the citizens of NY being victimized by Florida's lack of gun control?
Is gun control REALLY the issue at hand??? Craziness exist all over. NYC @ its best! One just never knows EXACTLY what's going on in the minds of slightly peculiar individuals. And yet some people blame the lack of gun control to be at fault. I second otherwise. Gun control laws... Ok, all for it. However, control people's minds & acts when under certain circumstances??? --Highly impossible. If someone, mostly criminals, wish to get a hold of ANY type of weapon, believe you me... No matter how tight laws to gun control are & reenforced, criminals will find a means to an end. There exist way too many weapons/guns out there in the black-market to keep track of every single weapon.
Besides... It only takes ONE individual to commit an act of crime that can affect dozens of innocent victims. I'm not saying that there's no hope to putting violence at a minimum but honestly, what would make me believe that if all guns were strictly prohibited, fatalities due to guns would NEVER again be an issue as well? Violence will always exist especially where have-nots are in existence!!!! That's a given!!! That's NYC!!! Let's not blame a law or the mayor. The blame rests on each and every one of us. When we aren't responsible for our own actions, that's when all craziness breaks lose. This gunman had gotten fired from work. He didn't know how to deal w/ the situation of losing his job & so he took matters into his own hands. It's a really sad situation but it seems to happen so very often.
First, Is ironic that the police shot more people than the perpetrator
We should be talking about psycological outreach for the unemployed, not about weapons control. This guy could have also driven a car into the building - should we talk about driving license limitations?
For every lunatic with a bad day like this, there are thousands of responsible gun owners who have a primal right to defend themselves. Single women in rural areas, people in areas subject to attack by large animals, and armed forces vets who continue their safety and target shooting, and who at instrumental in disaster prevention When the police cannot respond immediately.
NYC has 8 million people in it. This is one guy, a fraction of a percent. Frankly, I am surprised we haven't seen more of this.
TJ Ft. Greene
How anyone is able to place blame on NYPD in any shape or form is ludicrous! Their job is protect the citizens and tourist's of this city and if not for their quick action countless others may have been killed.
DomJamaica, NY
Guns don't kill people, people kill people, these are just cries for social justice, most americans today only now The Republicans and The Democratis, Its time for a change everyone is calling out for it, listen to what Psychologist are telling us about history repeating itself and staged situations just to gain support for public offices
How many more rights are we allowing this two party system to take away from us, i.e. Patriotic A
The beginning of a civilization, NY falls and then the country will follow.
Cheo, Whitestone, NY
I wonder what those innocent bystanders and passersby who were shot think of the police actions... The suspect shot his target and no one else. The several cops present shot 16 hapless rounds, blasting civilians along the way, to get their target, who was right out in the open. Wonder how those injured innocents feel about that.
Let's keep the emphasis off gun control and focus on what happened. The footage is clear that 2 officers stationed outside the empire state building and supposedly are part of the anti-terrorist task force and are "trained", shot this man 16 times when 1 or 2 shots would have been sufficient. Their training should be reviewed before they are issued these weapons and are given the title "highly trained."
The police in this instance are not hero's at all. They are bumbling buffoons. 8 people or so were shot, most likely by their bullets. We could have had 8 innocent people killed by the police, and only 1 killed by the gunman. These cops need to be removed from the force. They fired 16 bullets at him. They are trained to preserve life, not put innocent lives at risk of DEATH!
Second point is Commissioner kelly was quick to remind us why "Stop and frisk" is needed a few weeks ago when a black youth shot and killed someone. I wonder why he wasn't mentioning that today...... Oh yeah, that method would've have prevented anything since white men aren't "stopped and frisked".

On Thursday night you ran a story about police office and their use of face book and how people feel that City works should be held to a higher standard.
Well I think the people of the City of New York should know that city workers are treated as if they are child who must ask permission to do anything.
I would like to tell you about how the City officials say that as long as you work for the City in essence you have no rights we as the city can tell you what you can do after work (if you want to get a second job since our pay is so low), and that if you were hired after 1970 you must live within the City limits
You ask how the City can do such a thing. Well, are you aware that if a city worker wants to get a second job they must be approved, by a conflict of interest board? (But this does not apply to those members of the City Counsel {most of whom also hold jobs in law firms] or the Mayor's appointees [who also can be on board of directors for private industry]). City workers must receive permission from a Conflict of Interest Board; who can say no if they feel like to, even if the job has nothing to do with what the City works does for the city.
As you are aware the Mayor does not want people to eat items with trans-fats, not drink large sodas. I would like to make you aware that city workers are not allowed to have vending machines which have snacks in them on the premises. In fact the building where I work (100 Gold Street) originally had a small coffee stand (where you could get breakfast items rolls, eggs on rolls, etc.) in the lobby of our building. But the powers that be let the contract lapse, so that is good bye to the little stand. They said it will be replaced but so far it has been almost 6 months and need less to say no stand. The City offices know as DCAS has to get bids from different venders in order to replace this stand, but my understanding is that they do not want this stand to do any kind of cooking at this stand.
As you can tell City worker are not to have anything, But if you are on the Mayor's staff you can have want ever you like. I would like you to ask the people of the city of New York if they think this is right to treat the workers this way.
Mary Ann
The laws around Gun Control are based in a time when the US had a militia in a time when we didn't have a Police Dept. like we do now. I think that IF you want to own a gun it should be okay but CERTAIN weapons should NEVER be available - like submachine guns, 45 calibers - how are these OK to defend anyone.
We live in a world of war and violence. It's hard to point fingers because I don't believe either party acted appropriately. 16 rounds of ammunition standing 5 feet away is unreal. Little while ago Bloomberg said crime in NYC is under control and 2 months later about 20 people shot in several incidents. What does that tell us? Re-elections are coming up and there is no sense in thinking twice..
Arianna, Maspeth Queens
I don't believe they should be commended. 16 shots. Seriously? They need better training in regards to using their service weapons. Granted, most officers will go their entire careers without having to discharge a round but when they do, they should be able to handle the pressure. There is no need to fire that many times.
I'm so tired hearing these caller giver their opinion on how the officers should have responded this morning regarding the gunman. It is easy for all these callers to complain and moan about the officers shooting this crazed gunman 16 times. Here are some facts. One, the 9mm used by officers is specifically designed to be a rapid fire weapon, the trigger is far more sensitive. Second, the speed of a 9mm is about 1250 feet per second, meaning that a bullet will hit a suspect, at close range and continue right on through the suspect, doing little or no immediate damage, allowing that suspect to continue to advance. If officers were using a weapon like the 1911 Colt, a slower moving bullet velocity of about 860 ft per second, this has stopping power and will not travel through a suspect easily. Third, everyone loves to questions the police after the shooting, none of you were there today, you did not know what happen, the officers did not just shoot the perp, they were fired upon and they returned fire. People are failing to realize that this suspect committed suicide by cop. If you listen to reports from neighbors, this man had nothing to live for in life, he was a hermit, staying home wearing the the same suit day in and day out. He killed and now he wanted to die and he used the NYPD to do it. All you people, please, shut up...especially you folks from other states or countries...if this was a minority you all would be claiming cops used correct force, don't change the story now since it's some white shooter.
The issue here needs to be focused on the cops not one man who shot another but how is it that police officers who are suppose to be properly trained had to injure 9 others? the lack of training amongst the officers here is the problem
national guard guarding the streets RIDICULOUS!!!!! what use is those who wear the police uniform if when things happen we have to be sent to clean there mess? the question with that is how many people will the state send to fight the war we fight but they expect us to risk ourselves more then we do to now have to baby sit the streets and officers who can have proper training?
arms law???? it is our right to bear arms!!!!!! and it shouldn't be something taken away, we have many rights that separate us from other countries and thats what titles us americans so why take our rights from what we fight so hard for because of the stupidity of another's actions!!!
the nypd need 2 look at tactics training...use of deadly force is not acceptable...times square shooting, sean bell shooting...use of deadly force tactics are not right....marksmanship training and takedown training are NOT up 2 the task...i'm an exmilitary man...close quarter combat training and the like are NOT adequate enuff 4 nypd officers at TheRookie level[probably the level that FIRST responded 2day]...this NEEDS 2 b addressed or there WILL BE MORE collateral damage done....2b continued

This week, director Zack Snyder releases his fifth film, Sucker Punch. This film marks Snyder's first wholly original work, after 2004's Dawn of the Dead and his adaptations of the famous graphic novels 300 and Watchmen and the children's book, Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole. In Sucker Punch, Baby Doll, played by Emily Browning is left in a mental institution where she will receive a lobotomy in five days. Along with four other inmates, Baby Doll uses her imagination to create worlds that will help her and her other captives escape. But before going to see Sucker Punch this weekend, check out some of these under-ranked films from the film's stars.
Along with Browning's Baby Doll, Vanessa Hudgens as Blondie, and Jamie Chung's Amber are Jena Malone and Abbie Cornish as Rocket and Sweet Pea, respectively. Both actresses have done some great independent features that are worthwhile to check out.

Stan Spangle Sr.: Veterans still battling for deserved benefits
Two weeks ago on Jan. 4, we had a good turnout, considering the cold snap we were having, at our quarterly veterans gathering at Highland United Methodist Church. We had 19 veterans and their ladies, which I considered pretty good in light of the rough weather. We spent some time discussing the contaminated water problems at Camp Lejeune. The time frame the government is going to use is Jan. 1, 1953, through Dec. 31, 1987. At one time they were discussing going back to 1949/1950, but the official word now is 1953 as the year they will go back to.
It started last Dec.20. The DoD and TSA (Transportation Security Administration) announced a partnership to expand TSA Pre-check, expedited screening benefits to all U.S. Armed Forces service members, including those serving in the U.S. Coast Guard, Reserves and the National Guard. As a result of the agreement, the traveling military will be able to enjoy the benefits of the program at the 100 participating airports across the country." Expanding the TSA screening benefits is great news for our traveling service members and is a tangible sign of this nation's gratitude for the men and women who serve this nation each and every day," said Mary Snavely-Dixon, director, Defense Manpower Data Center. "We will continue to work with the TSA to help expand this program further."
Information from The Retired Enlisted Association (TREA) tells us that the push to repeal last year's federal budget provision that cuts the COLA for military retirees under the age of 62 is back on where it left off last year. In fact it did not stop for the holidays. Those of you who contacted your members of Congress about this issue, we all say Thank You! Don't stop now. Keep the pressure on. Keep pushing!
TREA has pre-prepared letters concerning this crucial issue. To use TREA's prepared letter go to, http://www.capwiz.com/trea/issues/bill. For those that don't use computers, our representatives' mailing address's are listed in the phone book. Keep their feet to the fire. Don't let them stand still!
The Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission (MCRMC) has been given more time to complete its report to the recently passed National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The commission has until February of 2015 to finish its report rather than May of this year. This means that the recommendations won't arrive till after the 2014 congressional elections are over and won't effect this year's budget negotiations. This will give us the time we need to try to influence the commission of the importance of military compensation and the earned benefits to ALL military personnel and therefore the security of our nation.

Ted Nugent has confirmed plans to issue a new live album titled Ultralive Ballisticrock. The release will feature vocals from Derek St. Holme, who was Nugent's vocalist of choice from 1975 to 1978.
The album was recorded during a performance on August 14, 2011, at Penn's Peak in Pennsylvania.
The two-disk set will be released as a music-only two-CD set, a one-DVD set, or Bluray set. The release is due October 16. Nugent commented on it in a presser:
"To be surrounded by such world-class passionate virtuosos is every musician's dream. And I live it every song, every concert, every night, every lick, every tsunami of soul sweat."
The release will feature the Motor City Madman's biggest hits, including "Stranglehold," "Dog Eat Dog" and "Cat Scratch Fever."

Sport Psyching
Coaches should help them work through several drafts so that the narrative contains all the essential elements of positive self-talk. It also should contain a strong, personal meaning for each athlete. Then each athlete can make a recording of the narrative and this mastery tape can be used for game preparation. Many athletes come to appreciate these tapes as their "secret weapons" and may want to make a different tape for each game.
Positive Coaching-Talk
Successful coaches usually model the behaviors that they want their athletes to exhibit. Coaches should not only monitor their own self-talk to build their confidence, they should also be conscious of the feedback that they give to their athletes in practices, meetings, and games.
Does your feedback give your athletes a constructive focal point that is under the athlete's control? Does your feedback send a message to the athletes that you are confident that they can improve? You might want to have your assistant log your feedback that you give in a practice, just to see.
Does this scenario sound too familiar? A player commits a costly turnover and the coach screams in disgust, "Don't throw away the ball."
All this feedback does is show that the coach is upset with the athlete's performance. Where is the instruction? This non-instructive, emotionally-charged feedback can also be an open invitation for the athlete to engage in negative self-talk: "I really blew that pass and I think the coach is going to take me out. Maybe I just don't have what it takes to be a starter."
Negative coaching can be devastating to an athlete's confidence and motivation. Positive coaching conveys instruction for improvement and reassurance to the athlete that not only is success achievable but that a mistake is not fatal.
A more effective response to the athlete's mistake might be, "Make sure that you use a bounce pass next time, play tight defense now… We'll have plenty of chances to score."
Some athletes and coaches might take the approach that John McEnroe used when he was the number one player in the world of men's professional tennis — using his anger to get psyched to try harder. While this worked some of the time for McEnroe, he did lose important matches and he fought major injuries over the course of his career.
If research shows that negative self-talk decreases confidence, fuels hopelessness, and creates muscle tension that can impede performance, why not develop the habit of positive self-talk? Who couldn't use a boost in concentration, motivation, confidence, and muscle efficiency when the pressure is at its greatest?

BRANDON — The efforts of Brandon Fire District No. 1 have once again been recognized in creating the best drinking water in the state.
The district has received a 2014 Governor's Award for Environmental Excellence in the municipal category for its Comprehensive Groundwater Source Protection Plan and for being the first municipality in the state to receive Class II reclassification of its drinking water sources.
Brandon Water Supervisor Ray Counter said he is pleased with the recognition.
VERGENNES — At their April 10 meeting, Vergennes aldermen told homeowners affected by water problems in the Crosby Farms and Booska Court areas that the city had hired Middlebury's Otter Creek Engineering to evaluate what needed to be done to cure drainage woes in the subdivision.
The water problems came to a head during the spring of 2011, when melt from heavy snows combined with steady rain to flood and badly damage eight basements, according to a group of homeowners who also met with aldermen in August.
BRISTOL — Last week many Bristol residents found themselves without water, and the town reservoir went just about dry.
Both of these problems stemmed from a string of systemic failures that began with a faulty water pump, said Selectman Alan Huizenga, who provides engineering services to the town as the president of Green Mountain Engineering.
MIDDLEBURY — A severe algae problem is poisoning the nation's sixth largest body of water.
Blooms of the toxic blue-green organism growing in Lake Champlain are essentially large, poisonous colonies of photosynthetic bacteria that are caused by high levels of phosphorus and nitrogen nutrients. According to the Vermont Department of Health, algae-contaminated water in the lake led to the deaths of two dogs in 1999 and 2000.

About Raymond Weil
Written By: Kaelyn Harding
Swiss watch-making is considered the finest in the world. For years the fashion-world has come to know and love the faces of other Swiss designers like Tag Heuer, but the up-and-coming Raymond Weil is making waves in high fashion and accessorizing with art.
Geneva-based, Raymond Weil is one of the few remaining independent Swiss watch makers to hit the modern market. The corporate face of Raymond Weil is fairly young despite the company being established in 1976 – their debut on the world-stage is far more recent: 2007.
Raymond Weil's motto is "Independence is a state of mind," a bold statement from a company that epitomizes the strength of will needed to survive in the scrutinizing environment of luxury watches. Despite being so young, the brand is already known for the elegance and comfort of every item in their collection. Whereas many companies prefer to design their watches in 14 karat gold, Raymond Weil is known for 18 karat with the inclusion of 18 karat pink gold in certain models. They favor the leather strap and polished metal links in their wristbands and quartz finish – all signs of their devotion to quality and willingness to compete with their well-established peers like Gucci and Cartier.
Several of Raymond Weil's collections indicate fondness for the arts with iconic names such as Don Giovanni and Parsifal, which is little surprise considering that Raymond Weil has just announced a partnership with the Support VH1 Save the Music Foundation. Paired with the sleek and luxurious designs of their watches, the company's image is one of sophistication. Their advertising campaigns feature men and women framed in formal black and white or dusky muted colors; it evokes the sense of mystery in their models and, as their campaign motto suggests, the deep places of the mind where creativity and our understanding of beauty exist.
Perhaps one of the best things about this new brand is that, like all foundling enterprises, the Raymond Weil watches have started at very modest prices. Now is the perfect time to sink in a few investments and acquire any of the original sets before this rising star of fashion becomes big-name and their watches begin to reflect those price tags. For now, you can pick up their starting line for between a modest $400 and the more common $1000. Depending on their middle-man vendors, you can receive further discounts, but that depends entirely upon the vendor, as Raymond Weil's starting prices have not changed often over the years.

An Online Shopping Mall Of Products and Services
What do you do in the event that you require help in selling your home? Or when you wish to purchase a new computer game or electrical appliance and you're unsure as to where to start or what the best models on the market are at the moment; where do you turn for help? When it comes to looking for a service to fulfill our needs, it can often be somewhat daunting as we are faced with reams of businesses all striving to take our custom. However, how can we ever be sure which business will best cater to our needs?
Word of mouth has been utilized for years as the most effective method of marketing and studies show that as other means of advertisement become more expensive, a vast amount of businesses are heavily relying on it in order to influence their sales. Although the traditional method of word of mouth stemmed no further than communication from one person to another, modern means relies heavily on the web which allows an individual to convey their opinion or news in quick succession to millions of people at the simple click of a button.
For the past decade, businesses across the globe have thrived as a direct result of going online, but with the implementation of the internet into business, consumers are now faced with an ever-increasing volume of businesses from across the globe, vying for their sale. For this reason, it is advantageous as a consumer to rely on testimonials of companies in order to sift those that will cater for your needs, from those just looking to make a quick dollar.
There are two different types of review or testimonial that a consumer should look out for which are product reviews and customer satisfaction reviews. Product reviews will simply provide you with a break-down of a product which can either be found directly on a company's website, or on an external site such as a forum. When the time comes to purchase an item of which there are several similar models available; a consumer will typically compare testimonials of said products based on a variety of different sites. Customer satisfaction reviews will commonly only reside on external sites which have no affiliation with the companies named. These reviews may be positive or negative, but are invaluable to potential customers as they provide them with an insight as to the level of service they can expect to gain from said company. From a business point of view, these reviews can be pivotal in increasing their website performance or, based on the review, can potentially damage or help their reputation.
However, with so many different websites offering a wide and varied range of reviews, it can be hard to differentiate as to which site will provide you with a thorough and legitimate review. Luckily, there is MyReviewsNow. MyReviewsNow offers online shoppers with a wide variety of online shopping choices all in one location. No longer are you required to sift through page after page of search engine results to find your ideal vendor, product or online site, as MyReviewsNow will prove you with an in-depth list of businesses that relate to your query. By being offered a range of services which fit your criterion, you can make an educated decision as to which site will best suit your needs and simply click to be taken to your designated proprietor. Shopping has never been so easy.
So, if you're looking for a quick way to not only find what you're looking for but purchase it in quick succession, visit MyReviewsNow. With a wide range of online shopping related choices on offer, you are guaranteed to find what you are looking for thanks to MyReviewsNow's wide variety of quality products and offers based on current popular online shopping trends. So save yourself time scouring through search engines and start saving on the items you want to buy, today!

Wendy's Enters Japan With Grand Opening Of Tokyo Restaurant
The Wendy's Company™ today announced the grand opening of the first joint venture Wendy's® restaurant in Japan, located in Tokyo's Omotesando area.
Starting with Tokyo, Wendy's Japan LLC plans a national rollout of restaurants in the coming years. Wendy's Japan plans to open approximately 100 Wendy's restaurants within the next five years and estimates the long-term market potential to be about 700 restaurants.
Wendy's Japan LLC was established earlier this year as a joint venture between Wendy's and Higa Industries Co., Ltd. Ernest Higa, founder of Higa Industries and Chief Executive Officer of the joint venture, successfully owned and operated 180 Domino's Pizza stores in Japan before selling this business in February 2010. A pioneer of the Japanese home delivery market, Higa's stores became known for gourmet pizza products and the use of the internet and wireless technology to promote menu items and enhance the customer ordering experience.
Darrell van Ligten, President, International, for The Wendy's Company, said: "We are delighted to join with a highly capable partner, Ernie Higa, to bring Wendy's brand to Japan and rapidly grow our presence in one of the largest quick-service restaurant markets in the world. The opening of our first joint venture restaurant in Japan is an important step in our international growth plans, and an expression of our confidence in the bright future of Japan."Higa commented: "We are reintroducing to Japan signature Wendy's products, including made-to-order, premium hamburgers with square beef patties, chicken sandwiches, entrée salads, chili and popular Frosty® desserts. At the same time, we'll further differentiate our restaurants by adding innovative new menu options created exclusively for the Japanese market, including the Avocado Wasabi hamburger and the Truffle and Porcini Grilled Chicken sandwich. Our food will be served in a contemporary, inviting atmosphere that we believe will exceed the discerning expectations of Japanese consumers."

So it's been a while
I feel like I'm always saying that now. *sigh* eh, whatever. And what happened to cause this prolonged absence? Shear Laziness. Well, and life happened. I've been thinking about the way life has been these past couple of months. Hell since 2005 started. and already we're halfway through. What have I done? What has changed? I know there was definitely a transition period between 2004 to 2005 when I realized that I hadn't seen my friends at all through the entirety of fall quarter. that was a depressing thought. I'd isolated myself to a point where I barely had any contact with my friends. Just School, work, home. school, work, home. Day in, day out. Then during finals, I finally saw some of the girls from my floor last year for the first time in 6 months. All during Winter Break, I couldn't help but think about that. I was closer to my mom, yes, but I hadn't grown. So winter quarter rolls around, and I finally start going out more. Try to take a bit more independence, well as much as I could have of course, and yes my grades did slump a bit....or a lot more than I would have liked, but I had more of a social life. It still wasn't enough, and it's still not enough to this day. I was content Fall Quarter with staying home and doing nothing. But when I found out how much I missed out on college life....how much of it i'm missing even now, it's depressing. Looking back on just this....I've always taken the back seat to life. I still take the backseat, and I'm in it right now. It'd be cooler if I were literally sitting in the backseat of my car typing all this out, but alas, i'm not in the mood to "creep downstairs" to sit in my car. Plus i took the battery out of this laptop, and oh yeah there's the issue of having no internet connection. Damn. But aside from all that, I'm in the backseat just as I've always been. Yes I got to "drive" for a while last year when I wasn't under this damn roof, but there were still things that held me back. Are they still there? And who the hell is driving MY metaphorical car? The devil....that's who. In the form of what would be parents. I'm 20 and I'm still talking about parents. And it comes down to obligation. I always feel obligation to things that seem out of my control. Financially, i'm dependant on my parents. Yes, i could get out of it, but....that's semi out of my control. It's hard to explain so i'm not even going to try. Certain friendships, I feel obligation because they've been so long that I can't just abandon it. People. I feel like it's my obligation to do for people. Do all that I can and help in a way that is possible.But obligation pushes and obliterates. Ok, i don't know if it really obliterates, but i just wanted to use the word. But it does feel like it's obliterating any form of growth i'm supposed to get from life. It seems like my parents are holding my hand all the time. How am I ever supposed to figure things out on my own, or do anything on my own if I don't do it on my own? I've considered chopping off my hand as a symbolic gesture. Well, mixed with a little insanity and alcohol, it could happen. Though I haven't gotten to that point yet. Motivation is also a big thing. Ever since the new year started, I haven't been able to really make myself do anything. At least work related. I pretty much sit around on my fat ass and.....do nothing. Sunday AND Monday this past week, I sat in front of the TV and ended up watching movies all day. Movies that were on TV of course. I told myself that I would clean my room. Hah....i've been telling myself that or the past 3 weeks actually. Still haven't done it. I really do have to get that done before I leave though and just make sure I have evertyhing. That's another thing, I still have paperwork that I have yet to completely fill out, and I'm leaving in a little over a week. Why am I screwing myself over like this? I'm going on a supposed "life-changing" trip and I can't even work up any excitement towards it. Not even to make myself get ready and prepare for it all. I go through all the maybes in my mind and most of them do make sense, but still. I always end up screwing myself over in some way. I just wish I had more independence. Ugh. there it is again. That damn word.I thought this entry would be more insightful. Damnit. That's me adding my damn "humor" to it and messing it all up. Hey gotta add entertainment when you can. Then maybe someone might actually make it through an entry. Sigh.

Innovators at NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center have patented an evaluation system and method for estimating airdata (airspeed, Mach number, angles of attack and sideslip) from nonintrusive surface pressure measurements. Preferably implemented as part of a flush airdata sensing (FADS) system, the innovation takes a flow model equation and transforms it into an aerodynamic model equation that mathematically describes the airflow. The model uses measured surface pressure data to extract airdata mathematically (in this case, via a triples formulation equation). Previous FADS algorithms relied on a nonlinear regression method that required a complex and expensive maze of software patches to maintain stability. In contrast, the Armstrong system reliably determines airdata in an economical and stable manner. The system also may be implemented within a dedicated logic circuit or a field programmable gate array.
- Reliable: Provides a highly stable estimation and evaluation algorithm that can be easily implemented with minimal cost and maintenance
- Accurate: Offers precise airdata that is suitable for use by various vehicle flight systems
- Economical: Eliminates the need for complex and expensive software upgrades
This type of system has applications for nearly any type of aircraft. It is useful for both research and operational applications, including:
- Flight testing of subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic aerospace vehicles
- Measurement of airdata for use in atmospheric vehicle control laws
Armstrong has one patent issued (U.S. Patent No: 6,253,166→ ) for this technology.
Commercial Opportunity
This technology is part of NASA's technology transfer program. The program seeks to stimulate development of commercial uses of NASA-developed technologies. NASA is flexible in its agreements, and opportunities exist for licensing and joint development. Armstrong is interested in a partnership to commercialize this technology.

Wright Medical Group, Inc. Reports 2012 Second Quarter Financial Results
The Company has updated its anticipated full year 2012 net sales to be in the range of $476 million to $485 million, as compared with the previously announced guidance of $472 million to $489 million, and has updated its as-adjusted earnings per share excluding stock-based compensation guidance to be in the range of $0.32 to $0.36 per diluted share from the previously communicated range of $0.26 to $0.36. The Company's earnings target excludes non-compete and transition costs associated with converting a major portion of independent foot and ankle territories to direct, costs associated with the previously announced restructuring, possible future acquisitions, other material future business developments, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and costs associated with the Company's DPA (including the associated independent monitor).
As noted above, the Company's earnings target excludes the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation charges. While the amount of the non-cash stock-based compensation charges will vary depending upon a number of factors, the Company currently estimates that the after-tax impact of those expenses will be approximately $0.18 per diluted share for the full year 2012. Therefore, the Company now anticipates its full year 2012 as-adjusted earnings per share including stock-based compensation to be in the range of $0.14 to $0.18 per diluted share.
With regard to restructuring charges, the Company has completed the cost restructuring plan announced in September 2011, incurring total charges of $18.5 million, which was in line with the previous estimate of $18 million to $20 million.From a cash flow perspective, the Company continues to anticipate significant improvement over 2011, and has upwardly revised its anticipated 2012 free cash flow to be in the range of $40 million to $45 million, as compared with the previously announced guidance of $25 million to $30 million. This new guidance range represents annualized growth of 176% to 211%.

OK... we gotta tell you... this one was one of the best speeches we have EVER heard at any aviation event... and it occurred this year at the 2012 AEA Convention and Tradeshow.
The kind folks of Universal Avionics pulled off quite a coup and arranged for a truly inspiring speaker for one of the most important gatherings in all of aviation -- the opening ceremonies of the 55th Annual AEA International Convention and Trade Show. And Universal's choice knocked it out of the park. Former Air Force One Command Pilot Colonel (ret) Mark W. Tillman, the United States' 12th Presidential Pilot, served as Commander of Air Force One from 2001-2009.
Col. Tillman was at the controls of Air Force One on September 11, 2001, keeping President Bush out of harm's way and connecting the flying oval office to the nation's first responders. He was also the first pilot to fly the Commander-in-Chief into a war zone. The challenge was unprecedented – it was a "Zero Fail Mission".
A truly amazing aviator, in 2004 Tillman was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross. He was also promoted to brigadier general by the President of the United States -- the first military line officer to receive this honor (not confirmed by the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee).
One of his more extraordinary adventures took place as he became the first pilot to fly the commander in chief into Baghdad. The challenge was unprecedented -- safely transport the most targeted man in the world into the heart of terrorism. One mistake would have left the president vulnerable to attack and would have cost the lives of U.S. service members. Tillman personally orchestrated and executed this covert operation with flawless success. His planning, done entirely in secrecy, allowed for a complete surprise to the world.
Please join ANN in this four part tribute and presentation of Col. Tillman's exciting speech at the 55th Annual AEA International Convention and Trade Show.

On an existence and uniqueness theory for nonlinear differential-algebraic equations
Kurzfassung auf EnglischAn existence and uniqueness theory is developed for general nonlinear and nonautonomous differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) by exploiting their underlying differential-geometric structure. A DAE is called regular if there is a unique nonautonomous vector field such that the solutions of the DAE and the solutions of the vector field are in one-to-one correspondence. Sufficient conditions for regularity of a DAE are derived in terms of constrained manifolds. Based on this differential-geometric characterization, existence and uniqueness results are stated for regular DAEs. Furthermore, our not ons are compared with techniques frequently used in the literature such as index and solvability. The results are illustrated in detail by means of a simple circuit example.

Yes! CCA is committed to helping students understand the complete science of Ayurveda as it was articulated thousands of years ago by the ancient rishis. This knowledge is contained in three major and three minor texts of Ayurveda written between 1500 B.C. and 1500 A.D. The curriculum at CCA helps to bring this ancient wisdom to you in a modern and easily understandable format.
Dr. Marc Halpern developed the title of Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist (C.A.S.) in 1995 for graduates of the California College of Ayurveda who have achieved the school's highest level of training in both health promotion and disease management. The C.A.S. title has become recognized as the highest standard of clinical Ayurvedic education offered in the United States. The title Ayurvedic Health Practitioner (A.H.P.) was introduced in 2007 by CCA to recognize the completion of our health promotion and disease prevention program. There are currently no Doctor of Ayurveda clinical degrees recognized in the United States. Bachelor's and Master's degrees offered at all schools in the United States are academic degrees only. They do not afford the recipient any additional practice rights.
Hindu University of America (International Vedic Hindu University) will accept the California College of Ayurveda's AHP certification as a basis for their Master's Degree Program. Learn more about the Master's in Ayurveda program.

Jon's VU! A little uncomfortable ...
Yep!! When I was very young, I am in my seventies, the big thinkers of the day said we were heading for a new ice age. Yes, you would be living in an igloo, and have to grow crops under ground. In the fifties a new voice took over from the weather man and announced we were heading for global warming. This new voice was a politician, Al Gore, and because he was an out of work Democrat, every one believed him.
He does look funny standing out in the deepest snow I can remember, with his fur hat pulled down, and making millions of dollars still saying this is all caused by global warming. Well, the odd thing, a large group believe him. Of course they also believe the earth is flat. Just go outside and look, do you see any curve in the earth's surface?
There are people who will believe anything some one with a silver tongue tells them. Years ago there was a rumor that any thing said on TV had to be true! Political campaign promises sure blew that notion away.
Now a terrible thing has happened in Arizona! I am a person who speaks his mind about goofy, crooked politicians. But I always say if you are unhappy with your leadership, vote them out. I do not believe the wounding and murder of the folks in Arizona had anything to do with right or left wing politics. I am convinced it was lunatic. a murderous crazy, who just wanted to get his time in the media! He got it. I just hope he pays with the full impact of our justice system, then we never hear from him again. The sad thing is the people who give him and his kind the fame they crave. I believe God should provide the proper punishment for him. Our justice system cannot provide the cruel punishment that is right for a person who indiscriminately kills and wounds innocent people.
Add the hurt done by an organization calling itself a church of God, who wants to picket the funeral of the nine year old girl this monster killed. Yes, little bird I am uncomfortable with the goings on at this time. I am also fighting mad at the way people in the media are trying to make political gain with the horrible way things are going in our country. Our beautiful country is hurting! We are being held hostage by some of the media. We are constantly being lied to, and hurt by those we trust to keep us informed in a timely manner, and given the FACTS, JUST THE FACTS…
To say I am uncomfortable is putting it mildly. My voice will not carry very far, but I put it out their, and hope it is joined by others who are uncomfortable with the way this country is going! I am just an old man who is trying his best, ARE YOU!!!
This is JON'S VU!!!!

Chris Christie: "I'm not much different from Andrew Cuomo. I probably agree with him on 98% of the issues."
Confused about Chris Christie? I trust this sheds some light on who this guy is, and why I've been so critical for so long. I do love the Compulsion to Confess, don't you?
Via the NY Daily News.
The two state leaders have more in common than previously thought, according to a comment reportedly made by the New Jersey governor.
In a conversation with a union leader, Christie allegedly made the jaw-dropping claim that he "probably" agrees with his Democratic New York counterpart on the vast majority of issues.
Christie apparently called New Yorker Larry Bulman, political director for the United Association of Plumbers, Pipefitters and Steamfitters, to thank him for a union donation to Hurricane Sandy relief efforts, according to a report in the Glens Falls Chronicle picked up by the Times Union.

Chris Christie, Charlie Crist…I'm starting to see a pattern here.+8
This fool is the biggest (no pun intended) RINO out there….if anyone thinks HE is the answer for the Republican Party they are nothing short of insane. He is closer to the solution for the Democratic Party than the Republicans……Noteworthy Comment +10
I wonder if after that statement he still makes Ann Coulter all moist and giggly.
Yeah, she drank that Kool-Aid a long time ago.Noteworthy Comment +13
I used to disparage anyone who claimed there is no difference between the parties – no more. Dhimmicrats and GOP work in concert to drive us over the cliff. And they never seem to run out of idiots who'll support them. Neither could care less as long as they can buy enough votes to get elected.
They can all kiss my rear end – honesty, fiscal responsibility, accountability and constitutionality are so rare in American politics as to be endangered.
Note to dummies – QUIT PLAYING THEIR SHELL GAME! It's 3 Card Monty! Bait and switch! Don't be a sucker…+6
@persecutor, that was my first thought. Nice job Ann. Nice vetting.+3
Anyone surprsised? Another RINO.+4
When Kristy flies over Bergen County in OUR helicopter, you can actually tell what side of the chopper he's riding in.Noteworthy Comment +11
He is right. Cuomo is a disgusting pig also.+8
If anyone believes that there is a difference between Democrat and Republican, they are truly a simpleton.
The fix is in… and you and I my dear lovelies are the willing victims of the "Business of Politics". Our political system has been corrupted by those who wish to remain in power. It is no longer about the representation of "We the People" but rather, the illusion of representation. Our Senate and Congress are nothing more than a forum for legalized bribery. Our "elected" leaders are merely there for display, while those persons that truly "run the show" are neither seen or heard from.
There is only one way to change what is happening in this country. We all know what that answer is and yet the majority of the citizenry would rather occupy themselves with watching Honey Boo-Boo, CNN etc…
It is easy to do nothing. To accept your "fate". To sit on your ass and pretend it is not your problem… but the fact is that someday (and it will be coming soon)we will all be forced into doing something.
I know where I stand…. right on the throat of those persons who wish to take away my liberty.+7
@McFartus Spontaneous…
I thought they hung him in a sling under a Chinook.+3
Toast. He can forget any presidential aspirations in the Republican party.+4
After Huomo's vile display during his push for gun confiscation, that means Fatboy RINO confirms his tyrant status.
God these insects disgust me.+7
So, Gov. Krispie is admitting to being a crook, too?
And a socialist succubus?
And a Fascist cocksucker?+5
The new Quinnipiac (spellcheck isn't going to help with that!) has Christie with a 74% approval rating in New Jersey!! I would like to see what it is nation wide.+1
Andrew Cuomo, Chris Christie, Scott Brown…
All Northeast "Republicans." And all fit for the democrat party. What does that tell you about the Northeast political machine?+1
If you are talking body mass, then 1Christie = 3XCuomo…+2
"….Chris Christie, Charlie Crist…I'm starting to see a pattern here. ….."
Cohn CcCain also+1
