The Mississippi Delta is known as the birthplace of American music and U.S. Highway 61 played an instrumental role in spreading the music, mainly the blues, across the nation.
On Thursday the town of Alligator, one of the smallest of all Delta communities and located in the northernmost portion of Bolivar County, was memorialized for its role in the blues movement when the Mississippi Development Authority, Tourism Division, unveiled the Alligator Blues marker as part of the Mississippi Blues Trail.
The historical marker in Alligator is the 16th of its kind to be located in Bolivar County and the 166th to be placed across the state.
"Highway 61, "the blues highway," is lined with the birthplaces of blues, R&B and gospel artists all along its route in Mississippi and even small communities such as Alligator share in this proud musical legacy," said Allison Washington, music trails representative for the MDA prior to the unveiling.
Blues musicians born or raised around Alligator and mentioned on the marker include: George P. Jackson, who was a longtime performer on the Kansas City blues scene; flamboyant entertainer Robert "Bilbo" Walker, who has recorded for the Rooster Blues and Fedora labels; Thessex Johns, a.k.a. Johnny Drummer, who plays the drums, keyboards and harmonica and has been playing in Chicago since the 1960s and has multiple albums to his credit; brothers Andrew, Curtis and Robert Kelly, known for their gospel music as well as R&B hits recorded under the names Kelly Brothers and the King Pins.
One of the most famous of all blues musicians, Robert Johnson, also briefly lived near the Alligator community.
Walker and Johns each made the long trek home for Thursday's unveiling.
"I don't know where to start at," said Walker. "Wherever I start at, I remember that I am starting at home. This is home. This has always been home and will always be home with me."
Walker said that on his way back to the Delta from his home in California, he didn't realize how much this marker was going to mean to him.
"I didn't really know that this marker meant so much to me until just a few minutes ago," said an obviously emotional Walker. "But just seeing all of you out here, my friends and family, I know how much this marker means to me now. Not too many things mean much to me, except for money, and today this marker means more to me than money."
Walker said that a part of the feelings he was experiencing came from looking down the street of Alligator and remembering the many days and nights that he played his music in the area.
"Looking back, Alligator had lost some of its meaning for me," he continued. "As I stand here and think about all of the places that I have played, and I have played around the world, today, Alligator is the most important place in the world to me."
Taking the microphone from Walker, Johns looked at him and recollected that they had come a long way from running "these streets around us."
"Growing up, we dream of going all over the world, but as we get older we never forget about going home," said Johns.
"Thinking back, I have played all over the states and across the world but I have never played in my home town," he added.
That would change right after the unveiling as Walker and Johns entertained the crowd inside the town's community center.
"We are going to play for you all a little bit of blues and a little bit of rock-n-roll," said Walker as he stepped on stage. "If you enjoy it then come on out and join us again at Big Red's in Clarksdale this Saturday and Sunday night as Johnny and I will take the stage together again."
The Mississippi Development Authority is the state of Mississippi's lead economic and community development agency, with approximately 300 employees engaged in providing services to businesses, communities and workers throughout Mississippi.
The agency works to recruit new business to the state and retain and expand existing Mississippi industry and business. MDA also provides technical assistance to the state's entrepreneurs and small businessmen and women and oversees programs that support Mississippi's minority and women-owned businesses.
The Mississippi Blues Trail markers tell stories through words and images of bluesmen and women and how the places where they lived and the times in which they existed–and continue to exist–influenced their music.
The sites run the gamut from city streets to cotton fields, train depots to cemeteries, and clubs to churches.

Amazing difference - 1/13/2014 5:01:20 AM I have had this for almost a year, and have only started using it on a regular basis for the past three months. I can see a visible difference in pore size, fine lines and general smoothness of my skin. My "parenthesis" are disappearing. It feels so good to use this I sometimes fall asleep with it in my hand.Really surprised - 7/29/2013 10:27:48 AM This is my first review. The sensepil is the single most expensive skincare product I've ever bought and I was hopeful, but wasn't expecting it to work. I have really dark hair on pale, pale skin. I could've shaved my legs twice a day it was so bad. It takes time, but this product really works. Each month I had less and less hair and now I'm down to very little hair at all. My legs are very smooth now and I still have to shave, but much less frequently. I'm really amazed, because I find that very few products live up to their promises.Great for hair removal but just one caution - 1/29/2013 2:07:49 PM I've been buying these refills for sometime now. They have been working great and my hair is almost all gone but not permanently as some of it still returns. ( this is why I keep using these refills like every 4 weeks or so.) The only issue i find with these refills is that they do not emit 750 pulses. the last 2 i bought did not last for long. I'm wondering if anybody else has noticed the same thing?a little disappointed - 10/14/2012 10:29:49 AM I bought the laser several years ago in hopes to keep my hair regrowth at bay. My hair grows at lightning speed and have always been a daily shaver, especially during the summer. After using it as directed, my hair is thinner and reduced my shaving to every other day instead of every day. I was hoping for better results as it can be time consuming ( takes longer than shaving) to zap your legs with this on a regular basis. I can see how it would be beneficial for someone who has a slower hair regrowth. However, for me...its much more efficient and cost effective to go back to shaving and waxing. At least with waxing, I can stay stubble free for several weeks at a time.- 8/26/2012 12:52:20 AM I don't think it works on me. Maybe is because my hair's color is black. Must to send it back. And the shipment fee is way too expensive.The one product that removes hair - 6/28/2012 8:49:50 AM I had purchased Tria hair removal system and used it for 2 years but saw no results whatsoever. Then i purchased the NoNo hair removal and that didn't work either. Lastly i purchased the SilknSensipil system and have been using it for a little over a year and i am seeing great results. Love the product and would recommend to any lady wanting to get rid of body hair for good ;)Took years off - 6/26/2012 6:52:31 AM I'm in my mid-thirties so wrinkles aren't a huge issue for me, however I noticed fine lines appearing around my eyes and mouth. I began to feel self-conscious about it, and luckily my friend bought this as a birthday gift for me. I've been using it for a few months now and those fine lines are almost completely gone, not to mention that my skin glows after every use which makes me look years younger. It is a bit pricey, but definitely worth it when you compare it to the accumulative prices of spa treatments.Silk'n replacement lamps - 6/11/2012 12:43:23 PM Best price I have found for these lamps is The Skin Store!Great Price. Great Product - 6/4/2012 8:51:21 AM My husband was complaining about how much money I was spending on spa treatments and bought this for me as a gift for Mother's Day. I have already seen a dramatic improvement in my skins textures. I have really big pores and some scarring from acne when I was younger and my pores and scars are barely noticeable now. Also works great to reduce appearance of dark circles.Won't be disappointed! - 6/4/2012 8:47:52 AM I bought the FaceFX because I was worried about wrinkles now that I turned 33 and I didnt want to spend thousands on skin treatments or surgery and I was not disappointed with this device. After only a few weeks of use I could see huge difference and others could too because I got many compliments. Love my FaceFX -
Learn More About Silk'n
Is your skin revolting against your current hair-removal methods?
Shaving may seem like the easiest way to rid your body of unwanted hair, but there are many downsides. Razors often cut more than just hair, resulting in unsightly nicks. Do you have fair skin and dark hair? Even freshly shaved skin may look blotchy because you can still see the hair under the skin's surface. And shaved hair grows back quickly, and as thick stubble - not as fine and soft hair.
Waxing is another common hair-removal strategy. Waxing involves pulling out the hair from its root and results in hair-free skin for up to six weeks. Unfortunately, many find the removal process very painful. Immediately after the waxing session, pores may appear red and irritated. As hair grows in, some of the hair may become ingrown, particularly in the bikini area where strands are course and curly. And, in order to wax hair effectively, it must be long.
Why not try laser hair removal? Laser hair removal used to be available only through a skin care professional. Now you can get similar results at home with Silk'n.
Silk'n is a hand-held device with FDA-cleared technology at an affordable price. After placing the device on your skin, it releases a gentle pulse of light that disables the hair follicle. Silk'n works best if you have fair skin and dark hair, as the light energy is absorbed by hair pigment. Use Silk'n to remove the unwanted hair from your bikini area, legs, and underarms. Men reach for Silk'n, too, and will find it effective for clearing unwanted hair, too. Within four weeks of use, you should see a significant reduction in hair. With continued use, you should see permanent results.

Kind of cheap built/material
By Deb
from Lee County, VA
As an end table for my husband's recliner, it is a good organizer and somewhere for him to set drinks, remote, etc.The price was a little high, now I am seeing others that have choice of wood colors, better/more appealing designs, and appear to be a good build.

I've been playing RPGs for nearly 20 years now. I guess i'm what you call old school. I've played through an entire gaming store worth of RPGs and even created one or two homebrew systems. I'm reacting to the recent announcement of 3rd edition Warhammer in this post. theres alot of talk going on this forum and RPG.net about this game. now, I havent playtested this game, I havent seen it, havent read any books included with it or anything of that sort. I've just diligently read much of what has already been said about it thus far. so I'll just dive into my rant:
I think old school RPG players will be repulsed by this game. I think it will seem gamist, board-gamey and 'immature' for the older/experienced crowd. I always viewed WFRP and its counterpart Dark Heresy as 'mature' RPGs and somewhat of a counter-culture to Dungeons and Dragons, espescially D&D 4e. once you get into action cards, party sheets and dice pools, you really take a turn into boardgame/cardgame land. sure, it can still be a roleplaying game, but you're really limiting the creativity of the players by forcing them to act only in accordance with thier actions cards or at-will powers. just because you tell a little story along the way doesnt make it a true RPG. now the RPG world is changing, i'll admit. other games like Magic the Gathering and World of Warcraft have all had an impact on RPGs and the demographic who play them. I understand FFG's need to create a new game for a new generation but I find it hard to imagine anyone over the age of 25 really enjoying this game. it almost seems more like a beer & pretzels kind of game. get together, pick some characters, kill some orcs, have a laugh then go home. now, of course we still have WFRP 2e for those of us whiners who just cant adapt to the 'new rpg' environment that D&D 4e is trying to create. but seriously, what is all this chicken-**** quasi-RPG nonsense really about? its more like Gauntlet Legends nowadays. I have my blue attack and my green attack, you have your blue defense and green defense. come on now.
I may give this game a chance, but the more I hear the more it sounds like less of an RPG and more of a boardgame. its like saying that Twilight Imperium is an RPG because you're telling the story of a galactic war.
someone prove me wrong.

These sheets are worth the money to us. They are pretty heavy, comfortable, hotel + quality, good color and deep pockets as advertised. Our mattress is 17+ inches and there is no problem with edges reaching down under the corners. Wait for a sale to save a few dollars then buy these sheets. This review is written by a stay at home dad who does the housework for years and is value conscience and I liked the sheets from day one.
These sheets are High quality & soft out of the box, but they will take at least 1-2 washing to start feeling silky soft. As with all Egyptian cotton products, the more times you launder them, the softer the material feels. High thread count Egyptian cotton fabric is incredibly strong and will last for many, many years. If cared for properly, Egyptian produced cotton fabric used for bedding products can last for decades. This is why high end Hotels use quality Egyptian cotton products like these sheets. Sheets that sell for half the price and have 1/3 of the thread count, are not of this quality, nor will they last as long as these will. The weight of the fabric is heavy and the construction is fine. You cannot see through the fabric, unlike most other low count fabrics, this is tightly woven and the threads are thick. The cotton has a sheen and feels satin like. The pillow cases are over sized and have a heavy scroll embroidery on them. The fitted sheet fits an 18" Deep mattress, I own a Select comfort I10 with an 18" pillow top, these fit perfectly. These sheets are worth every penny! Please do not hesitate to purchase them. These are made in the USA.
I always get my sheets from this site and I try to go with the highest thread count while making sure that they are still cotten sateen. I was not disappointed and I have to say this is the first time I'm not fighting to put the fitted sheet on my mattress because they REALLY are DEEP POCKETS!!!! I cannot stress that enough......I have never been able to find deep enough fitted sheets until these came along. Nice design on the edge of the pillow cases and flat sheet too. Overall the best sheet purchase I've made yet.
Great feeling sheets, smooth and very comfortable. Needed to be washed a few times to reach the proper comfort level.
These sheets are a little bit of heaven. They feel amazing against the skin and are so comfortable to sleep on. I wasn't sure if going up to a 1200 count sheet would make a big difference - but it does. They are made very well and I like them so much I'm thinking of buying another set.
Very nice and well made set
Quality made in America product. Heavy, thick and wonderful quality, these sheets get softer with each wash. True to size, they fit my massive mattress and stitching holds up to pulling around the edges. I will definitely buy from this company when I need sheets again.
These are some of the nicest sheets I have ever bought that includes Fretta and a set of Egyptian cotton sheets I bought in Egypt.
Fits great. Just need to keep it out of unskilled laundry help hands as it will shrink in warm water and anything but a low dryer setting. Feels good on the skin.
Very thick cotton sheets. In the winter they are my "go to" sheets. In the summer they get put on the top shelf of my linen closet because they make me too hot. Really nice quality and they make me wish for winter so I can get cozy under them!

Bulls still playing with an eye toward Derrick Rose
BY MARK POTASH email@example.com March 4, 2013 2:48PM

Article Extras
Updated: March 4, 2013 10:13PM
Chatting casually with local reporters in the Bulls' locker room at Bankers Life Fieldhouse after a 97-92 loss to the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night, Derrick Rose admitted to being a little chagrined that every move he makes is overscrutinized and overanalyzed.
Rose being on the bench for the first time since his knee surgery — in a dress shirt and sport coat — seemed to take on a life of its own. Not even Vladimir Radmanovic driving the baseline for a vicious dunk could trump the fact that Rose was not only on the bench, but really into the game. When Marco Belinelli mishandled a sharp pass from Joakim Noah for a turnover that led to a Pacers fast break, Rose jumped off the bench with a frustrated look on his face. I know this because like everybody else, I was keeping half an eye on the game and half an eye on Derrick Rose.
Life was a lot easier for Rose when he played basketball for a living. But as uncomfortable as that might be, Rose can take solace in the fact that his teammates are tethered mentally to the former league MVP even more than we are. Maybe it's just the time of the season — a long way in, but a long way to go — but the Bulls seem to be taking their cues from Rose more than Tom Thibodeau.
The Bulls are a good team in a funk right now, sending a subliminal message to their recuperating superstar: ''We need you.'' What else to make of the blowout losses to the Heat, Spurs and Thunder? Or Sunday night's loss to the Pacers, when their best hope was an effort-and-energy start and they came out flat and forced Thibodeau to turn to Radmanovic, Nazr Mohammed and Marquis Teague for a boost?
''We played from behind most of the night,'' Thibodeau said. ''It's important to play with a lead. We've got to come out with more fire to start the game. More intensity. The level of intensity has to be a lot higher.''
Without Rose, the Bulls are unable to take the initiative against teams that are as well-coached as they are. The Pacers take the Rose-less Bulls as seriously as any team in the NBA and it showed again Sunday night as it did in a loss at Bankers Life Fieldhouse last month.
''They're a good team,'' Noah said.
''I don't know,'' said Luol Deng, who typified the Bulls' effort by scoring five points on 2-of-8 shooting in the first three quarters and 10 points on 3-of-5 shooting in the fourth quarter. ''It happens. So many games. We didn't start well.''
Outside of lighting an actual fire under his players' butts, it appears the only spark the Bulls are going to get is from Derrick Rose — and not in a dress shirt and sport coat telling Jimmy Butler where the screen is coming from.
Over the past two seasons, Thibodeau has conditioned his team to play without Rose. But — as was painfully evident in the playoffs against the 76ers last season — only with the expectation that Rose would return. Once he was gone for good, the Bulls were a shell of the team that tied the San Antonio Spurs for the best record in the NBA (50-16).
So with six weeks and 22 games left in the regular season, the Bulls quickly are reaching a breaking point. Rose shouldn't return until he's physically and mentally ready. But at some point, the Bulls have to know one way or the other. Whether they realize it or not, the suspense is killing them.

You know you're seeing a deserving person get the job and that person understands what it takes to keep the institution's athletic programs running strong.
On Friday at the start of the Memorial Day weekend when Delta State University released the news that Ronnie Mayers was named the Athletic Director, I couldn't help but to feel that the right person got the job.
Mayers has definitely paid his dues.
Mayers, who earned his bachelor's degree in Physical Education and Recreation in 1974 and his masters' degree in 1975 at DSU, truly bleeds the green and white.
Mayers has always understood the importance of having a successful sports program while maintain academics in the classroom.
During his 20-year tenure as head coach of the men's and women's swimming and diving team, he led the Lady Statesmen to five New South Intercollegiate Swim Conference Titles and the Statesmen to four conference championships. Along with having 56 individual swimmers earn All-American honors, he also had 21 Academic All-Americans.
The fact that he's coached a great amount of All-Americans is proof that he understands that getting quality student-athletes is key.
Mayers, who has been a part of the DSU staff since 1976 and recently served as the school's Assistant Athletic Director for Development and Director of Aquatics, has met and known all the great coaches DSU has had over the years and understands what qualities are needed to lead a program at the university.
He showed strong leadership this past year as he served over seven months as interim AD after the previous AD, Jeremy McClain resigned to take a job at the University of Southern Mississippi. Current DSU head football coach Todd Cooley was hired during his interim AD tenure on Jan. 25. Mayers also served as interim AD for a six-month period in 2006 and 07 after Brad Teague left DSU to take the AD position at the University of Central Arkansas.
Mayers has been one person that you'll always around town in Cleveland as he has worked with numerous volunteer organizations.
As the 2013-14 school season approaches, Mayers will be working hard to make sure the athletics program at DSU will continue to compete at the highest level possible.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Which one CoolTool would you choose to give everyone on your gift list? asked Jul 27 '11 at 17:39 Sandra Lang |
I think a small tool kit that comes in a self contained case is a good gift for many, just something that can be stashed in an apt, car, dorm, etc. They are available a various hardware, home improvement outlets. I've found that just have a set around has allow my friends and relatives to get simple jobs done without the threat of having to track down tools from the garage. The one in my kitchen gets more use than a lot of my better tools in the basement/garage. (hanging pictures, puttng together simple furniture, fixing loose railing, etc etc.) something like these: Craftsman Amazon cheapie linkanswered Jul 28 '11 at 09:44 joshg |
When you've got a hammer, the whole world looks like a nail. In some sense, it sounds like you're asking the CT community to identify the mother of all hammers. I think you'd be far better off getting up to speed on the last 100-or-so CT reviews and seeing if any would nail a problem in your friend's environment. Quiz friends of your friends to see what they think about your ideas. Make sure that your friend actually wants the problem solved -- sometimes we like our problems. Ultimately, giving gifts involves some risk-taking. That's part of what makes it fun. Putting in the due diligence to identify cool tools that is a likely fit for your friends' needs is definitely a worthwhile task. If your friends are appreciative of your effort, you could suggest that they "tool it forward" in a similar fashion. linkanswered Jul 28 '11 at 15:43 floatingbones |
I would give them the URL to the Cool Tools Web site. linkanswered Jul 28 '11 at 09:35 |
People have a universal need to repair things. Common mishaps include tearing clothing and getting ink on it. So good candidates would be Tear-Aid (in the Cool Tools catalog, page 72) and an ink remover like Amodex (on Amazon). One of the good tweezers on p. 438 of the CT catalog would also eventually be appreciated by everyone. I just gifted myself the version with the magnifying glass. linkanswered Apr 12 '14 at 05:20 |

At Kroger, the information is used to understand the sales and profits by supplier and by variety, he said.
"It's not just what you pay for an item but what goes out the door," he said about shrink.
The retailer also has found the stacked bar codes eliminate errors at check-out.
With the advent of UPC codes, he said 80% of checkers think they know the product code and frequently guess wrong, resulting in ringing in lower prices.
Consumers using self check-out also don't like to have to look up a product. With the stacked bar code on the decals, they simply scan the produce item as they would any other food item, he said.
In addition, the stacked bar codes allow computer-assisted ordering of produce.
"Today with the right type of information, it works just as well ordering peaches as it does with canned soup," Ross said.
Should a food safety issue occur, he said they can implement a controlled recall, using robotic calls to contact only those who bought the product rather than implementing a widespread recall.

Hey, it's almost February 2012, and we all know what that means here in New Orleans-Carnival Time! The first joyously anticipated parade rolls next Saturday, February 4, starting at 6:30 PM, through the ever-funky French Quarter and Marigny neighborhoods. Yes, that would be Krewe du Vieux. Makes sense that the first parade would be in the Marigny- Bernard Xavier de Marigny de Mandeville, a wealthy plantation proprietor of French heritage, raised money in 1833 to fund an official celebration of Mardi Gras, and of course his plantation later became the Marigny. (He was one of the original developers of New Orleans!) But there've been carnival celebrations in New Orleans since at least 1743. The Krewe du Vieux likes to boast that it's the only organization that parades around the original satirical ideals of Carnival. No lofty mythological themes, or glittering stars on huge floats a la Endymion. No, it's just creative people making fun of their own society. Lots of material in New Orleans!
The theme this year of the always-irreverent (and a bit racy) adult-oriented parade is "Crimes against Nature," and Deon Haywood as the Queen, the Executive Director of Women with a Vision. As leader of that organization, she fights for the rights of at-risk and impoverished women, marginalized members of society, and their families. She's clearly not shy! With a theme like that, who knows what might turn up on those mule-drawn floats meandering through the Old Quarter. Recent Kings include Dr. John (2010-"Fired Up!") and Don Marshall (2011-"25 Years Wasted.").

Terms of reference
Pre amble
The BAcC works towards ensuring that members obtain the best outcomes for patients and that patient experience is improved. All feedback is very important in helping the BAcC improve and develop services and we value it highly. Our strategy is to involve patients of acupuncture in a variety of ways, with a view that there is no 'one size fits all' approach.
The group was approved to be established by the BAcC Executive Committee in June 2011 as a pilot. It has met for one year and its terms of reference and function were reviewed in September 2012.
Overall purpose
The primary purposes of this group are to
- Advise how BAcC's strategic and business plans impacts on patients
- Advise on ethical and practice issues, in particular as it relates to the BAcC's proposed Professional Standards Authority accreditation and reviewing complaints procedures
- Help make links with patients and voluntary sector organisations
- Hear patient comments and feedback on acupuncture in general
Minutes will be available for the GB to review
Specific tasks
- Feedback on the draft BAcC business plan
- Review relevant policy papers for the Governing Board
- Comment on BAcC patient facing documents
Meeting schedule
The group will meet twice a year at the BAcC London Office.
The group will consist of:
- A maximum of 5 patients, using BAcC practitioners
- A BAcC practitioner member
- BAcC CEO
- BAcC staff members may attend by invitation from time to time if their areas of specialist involvement are under discussion.
BAcC will pay travel expenses and a small stipend for the half day meeting – suggested to be £100, for a half day meeting, in line with other lay members
The Chair will be the CEO.
There is no quorum. In the event that a recommendation arises from a meeting at which only two members are present, however, this should be made explicit in any formal recommendations placed before the Governing Board.

Cooties are negatively charged particles. They are not the same as germs, or else they would not have different names. If you get too close to a cootie source you may be sucked into a cootie force field. Therefore stay away from all cootie sources i.e. boys.

"We are working with our law enforcement partners," says CalTrans spokesman Phil Frisbie. "The issues with trespassers will be resolved, and we will jump in and get this project back on schedule."
Some anti-bypass activists had called for an "occupy-style" encampment starting Sunday night for the area along Highway 101 near the site of the ongoing protest tree-sit, but there was little sign of this activity. More than 50 protesters gathered at the Warbler tree sit protest on Monday. Early Tuesday morning, a number of protesters gathered again at the site, waving signs and singing songs.
CalTrans has already fallen behind in its construction schedule since the first field work started and then stopped February 25 at the request of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The CDFW requested CalTrans improve its bird monitoring protocols before disturbing more vegetation.
CalTrans spokesman Frisbie says the agencies reached an agreement March 12 and restarted project construction in a previously disturbed area on March 13, only to be shut down by activists.
"The contractor's equipment was surrounded by protesters," says Frisbie. "The California Highway Patrol was called and they responded with two officers. The officers determined they did not have enough force in place to physically remove the protesters.
The contractor was stopped again Friday from using a flail mower along the eastern side of the right of way as needed to install another section of fencing. The contractor's equipment was again surrounded and the CHP only had one officer available to respond to the protest site, says Frisbie. "With only one officer, we were unable to ensure the safety of the protesters and the contractor stopped work."
CHP has jurisdiction over the CalTrans right of way, Mendocino County Sheriff Tom Allman said Thursday. He noted the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office has a memorandum of understanding with the CHP and will assist if the CHP requests help.
Many in the area, including the protesters, had expected some type of action on Monday or Tuesday by CalTrans. As of press time no significant confrontation between law enforcement and the protesters has occurred and no arrests have been made.
With more and more birds arriving in Little Lake Valley, CalTrans is under significant time pressure to finish the fencing, and remove the trees and brush along the route as soon as possible to avoid further delay to the entire project. The Federal Migratory Bird Act severely restricts disturbances allowed in active nesting zones.
CalTrans had originally planned to remove the vegetation along the entire route in October or November and avoid having birds make nests in trees destined for removal.
CalTrans and CDFW reached agreement on the new bird protection protocols at a Tuesday morning construction meeting held in Willits, says Frisbie. Wednesday, CalTrans started a new round of bird surveys along undisturbed sections of the corridor and authorized the contractor to complete fencing along the corridor disturbed in February.
Friday, CalTrans received official confirmation from CDFW it had received the final bird protection protocols. CalTrans believed it had received sufficient authorization from CDFW on Tuesday to allow work to new bird surveys to proceed, according to Frisbie. Once the biologist completed a new survey section this was forwarded to CDFW, says Frisbie. CalTrans then authorized new work to begin anew.
Friday, after the flail mower had removed about 100 yards of new vegetation, the protesters stopped the project.
In other developments, CalTrans Director Michael Dougherty "is making arrangements to meet with state Senator Noreen Evans to respond to her concerns and to explain the environmental benefits to Little Lake Valley," says Frisbie. Evans sent a letter to Dougherty requesting a meeting "to discuss the Willits bypass, and address these issues that have been raised by my constituents." There has been no date set for the meeting according to Frisbie.
Operating Engineers Local No. 3 is calling for another pro-bypass rally on Friday from 11 to 2 p.m., dubbed the "Start the Bypass" rally. The rally will be held in front of the Willits Safeway supermarket; a march to another site may follow.

If Denise Bacon is elected, there is no doubt she will vote along with Mary Stern. Mary has been at the forefront of Denise's campaign, you know, political favors and all.
The bottom line is both the liberals and the conservatives want control of the 'non-partisan board' (we know who is which). The cons have had that control, and the libs want it. Simple as that.
So if Allen Springer is elected, most believe he will not be beholden to either commissioner, thus, no alliance or favors owed when making county policy. But according to Kris, that will not be the case with Denise, team player, and all.
So Yamhill County has a choice -- vote for independence thinking or partisan block mentality.
Truth is I have lived in all different economic circumstances (except rich, I have never been rich)-- this has helped me to be a compassionate human being. People-- for a multitude of reasons some of which they have no personal control over-- are faced with struggles. My husband and I work hard but we are well aware that there are others that are not as lucky as we are. We have been poor, working class, and lower middle class -- if elected we will be upper middle class for the first time ever in either of our lives.
And finally-- I have never taken into consideration my relationships with other elected officials before casting my vote. It just doesn't work that way for me-- I serve with a great group of people some of which I consider friends and that just never comes into play. I read my own materials, listen to testimony, and vote my own conscience every single time.
You work hard, you educate yourself about anything that you see as being important to learn about, and you work your guts out to be plugged into what is happening. Your are much smarter than the average bear, you are good at leveraging information, and you are strongly moderate. This makes you rich - not poor.
But poor-mouthing is a flaw.
When is being solidly middle class, poor? Struggling to pay the electric bill happens to everyone regardless of income status, believe it or not. It isn't how much money you have - it's how you handle it.
Poor is state of mind - poverty is an unhappy state of being. I think you have a strong sense of nobless oblige precisely because you come from & currently live in fortunate circumstances. It is not poor to work hard or worry about paying the electric bill when many people don't have electricity at all.
While I disagree with your conscience sometimes, at least you have one. I think you and I see representative government differently. I see it in the traditional sense that one doesn't represent one's own conscience, one represents the majority who elect you and at the same time refuse to let them abuse the minority who did not elect you. I think your vision is more modern, in the sense of serving as a way to act out conscience in the world and getting people on your side to be able to do it. At this you are very good and successful.
It was smart to enter into a mentor-mentee relationship with Mary Stern, because anyone wanting to work in a job ought to find someone who can help you learn it.
But I agree with Don's discomfort with your relationship with Mary Stern, but not because of any perceived partisanship. Her participation with both Wiretap Lewis and MiniMe George in degrading the equal standing & salaries of two fellow elected officials using the Compensation Committee which the Commissioners control, is vile & undermines The Peoples' democratic control of government. So is participating in try to shove through a pay raise for the Commissioners in the middle of a Great Depression with little public notice. Currently the Commissioners make $70K a year plus benefits. That's solidly middle class. Why wasn't that good enough for them, all three of whom are already very very well off, when so many others aren't? And Mary fully participated in both of those acts.
My point had nothing to do with perceived status in the class structure. It had to do with how most 'political leopards' change their spots to fit the present story.
On paper, it appears Mary Stern wants Denise as a fellow commissioner instead of Allen. There is no mistaking Mary's sentiments. So the question remains, why?
I can only assume the answer, but that assumption is based on how the liberals have railed against the George - Lewis tandem (Kris being one of several), and then turn around and beg voters to put them (liberals) in the same situation.
In my opinion, when winds blow in an offensive odor, it makes no difference whether it originates from the right or the left -- it stinks just the same.

City Council panel moves to expand 'gun offender registry'
BY FRAN SPIELMAN City Hall Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com March 7, 2013 12:30PM
Ald. Edward M. Burke (14th) | Sun-Times files
Updated: April 9, 2013 11:39AM
Chicago's widely ignored "gun offender registry" would be broadened to include anyone who commits a violent crime with a firearm under a crackdown advanced Thursday to boost meager registration.
"When arranging for a play date with their child's classmate and . . . going over to the classmate's house, shouldn't Mom and Dad have an opportunity to check whether a gun offender might be registered at that address?" said Ald. Edward M. Burke (14th), who introduced the ordinance.
"When a Chicago Police officer rolls up to an address, shouldn't that officer be able to check whether a gun offender is registered at that address, raising the potential for encountering a gun offender [or], when making a street stop, check to see if the license plate is registered to a gun offender before he walks up to the vehicle?"
Nearly three years ago, Burke persuaded the City Council to require anyone convicted of unlawful use or possession of a weapon to register with the Chicago Police Department within 48 hours after being released from prison.
The problem is, the ordinance has been widely ignored. The registry now has only 584 names, according to Chief of Detectives Tom Byrne.
On Thursday, Burke persuaded the Public Safety Committee to "cast a wider net" — by broadening the umbrella to include an array of violent crimes with a firearm, including kidnapping, assault, battery, home invasion, robbery, vehicular hijacking and armed violence.
The registry includes the names, aliases, birth dates, height, weight, eye color and driver's license number of every offender, as well as a photo ID and details of their convictions.
During Thursday's hearing, Burke argued that gun offender registries in Baltimore, New York and Washington have had a "deterrent effect on people who might be tempted to commit gun crimes again" — and traditionally have a higher rate of recidivism.
Fewer than 5 percent of 1,669 gun offenders in Baltimore have been arrested again on gun charges and just 25 percent have been re-arrested for any new charges, the alderman said. Washington, D.C., reported similar numbers.
"That seems rather compelling. This could be an effective tool for law enforcement and citizens as well," just as registries of convicted sex offenders have been, Burke said.
Ald. Willie Cochran (20th), a former Chicago Police officer, questioned whether the Police Department has the manpower to handle a surge in gun offender registrations.
"There's a lot of offenses here. . . . How many more people do we anticipate [needing]? . . . If we pass this and we have 10,000 or 15,000 more [registrations] that are required for the Police Department to satisfy these things, what kind of situation does that put us in?" Cochran said.

A prayer-- The greatness and goodness of God. (1-6) The wonderful works God wrought for his people. (7-14) The presence of God in his church. (15-21) The victories of Christ. (22-28) Enlargement of the church. (29-31) The glory and grace of God. (32-35)
Verses 1-6 None ever hardened his heart against God, and prospered. God is the joy of his people, then let them rejoice when they come before him. He who derives his being from none, but gives being to all, is engaged by promise and covenant to bless his people. He is to be praised as a God of mercy and tender compassion. He ever careth for the afflicted and oppressed: repenting sinners, who are helpless and exposed more than any fatherless children, are admitted into his family, and share all their blessings.
Verses 7-14 Fresh mercies should put us in mind of former mercies. If God bring his people into a wilderness, he will be sure to go before them in it, and to bring them out of it. He provided for them, both in the wilderness and in Canaan. The daily manna seems here meant. And it looks to the spiritual provision for God's Israel. The Spirit of grace and the gospel of grace are the plentiful rain, with which God confirms his inheritance, and from which their fruit is found. Christ shall come as showers that water the earth. The account of Israel's victories is to be applied to the victories over death and hell, by the exalted Redeemer, for those that are his. Israel in Egypt among the kilns appeared wretched, but possessed of Canaan, during the reigns of David and Solomon, appeared glorious. Thus the slaves of Satan, when converted to Christ, when justified and sanctified by him, look honourable. When they reach heaven, all remains of their sinful state disappear, they shall be as the wings of the dove, covered with silver, and her feathers as gold. Full salvation will render those white as snow, who were vile and loathsome through the guilt and defilement of sin.
Verses 15-21 The ascension of Christ must here be meant, and thereto it is applied, ( Ephesians 4:8 ) . He received as the purchase of his death, the gifts needful for the conversion of sinners, and the salvation of believers. These he continually bestows, even on rebellious men, that the Lord God might dwell among them, as their Friend and Father. He gave gifts to men. Having received power to give eternal life, the Lord Jesus bestows it on as many as were given him, ( John 17:2 ) . Christ came to a rebellious world, not to condemn it, but that through him it might be saved. The glory of Zion's King is, that he is a Saviour and Benefactor to all his willing people, and a consuming fire to all that persist in rebellion against him. So many, so weighty are the gifts of God's bounty, that he may be truly said to load us with them. He will not put us off with present things for a portion, but will be the God of our salvation. The Lord Jesus has authority and power to rescue his people from the dominion of death, by taking away the sting of it from them when they die, and giving them complete victory over it when they rise again. The crown of the head, the chief pride and glory of the enemy, shall be smitten; Christ shall crush the head of the serpent.
Verses 22-28 The victories with which God blessed David over the enemies of Israel, are types of Christ's victory, for himself and for all believers. Those who take him for theirs, may see him acting as their God, as their King, for their good, and in answer to their prayers; especially in and by his word and ordinances. The kingdom of the Messiah shall be submitted to by all the rulers and learned in the world. The people seem to address the king, ver. Verse 28 . But the words are applicable to the Redeemer, to his church, and every true believer. We pray, that thou, O God the Son, wilt complete thine undertaking for us, by finishing thy good work in us.
Verses 29-31 A powerful invitation is given to those that are without, to join the church. Some shall submit from fear; overcome by their consciences, and the checks of Providence, they are brought to make peace with the church. Others will submit ( psalms 68:29-31 ) service of God, and in the gospel of Christ which went forth from Jerusalem, which is enough to invite sinners out of all nations.
Verses 32-35 God is to be admired and adored with reverence and godly fear, by all that attend in his holy places. The God of Israel gives strength and power unto his people. Through Christ strengthening us we can do all things, not otherwise; therefore he must have the glory of all we do, with our humble thanks for enabling us to do it, and for accepting the work of his hands in us.
Psalms 68:1-35 . suggested by David's victories, which secured his throne and gave rest to the nation. In general terms, the judgment of God on the wicked, and the equity and goodness of His government to the pious, are celebrated. The sentiment is illustrated by examples of God's dealings, cited from the Jewish history and related in highly poetical terms. Hence the writer intimates an expectation of equal and even greater triumphs and summons all nations to unite in praises of the God of Israel. The Psalm is evidently typical of the relation which God, in the person of His Son, sustains to the Church (compare Psalms 68:18 ).
1-3. Compare Numbers 10:35 , Psalms 1:4 , 22:14 , on the figures here used.
before him--as in Psalms 68:2 , from His presence, as dreaded; but in Psalms 68:3 , in His presence, as under His protection ( Psalms 61:7 ).
3. the righteous--all truly pious, whether of Israel or not.
4. extol him . . . heavens--literally, "cast up for Him who rideth in the deserts," or "wilderness" (compare Psalms 68:7 ), alluding to the poetical representation of His leading His people in the wilderness as a conqueror, before whom a way is to be prepared, or "cast up" (compare Isaiah 40:3 , 62:10 ).
by his name JAH--or, "Jehovah," of which it is a contraction ( Exodus 15:3 , Isaiah 12:2 ) (Hebrew).
name--or, "perfections" ( Psalms 9:10 , 20:1 ), which--
5, 6. are illustrated by the protection to the helpless, vindication of the innocent, and punishment of rebels, ascribed to Him.
6. setteth the solitary in families--literally, "settleth the lonely" (as wanderers) "at home." Though a general truth, there is perhaps allusion to the wandering and settlement of the Israelites.
rebellious dwell in a dry land--removed from all the comforts of home.
7, 8. (Compare Exodus 19:16-18 ).
thou wentest--in the pillar of fire.
thou didst march--literally, "in Thy tread," Thy majestic movement.
8. even Sinai itself--literally, "that Sinai," as in Judges 5:5 .
9, 10. a plentiful rain--a rain of gifts, as manna and quails.
10. Thy congregation--literally, "troop," as in 2 Samuel 23:11 2 Samuel 23:13 --the military aspect of the people being prominent, according to the figures of the context.
therein--that is, in the land of promise.
the poor--Thy humble people ( Psalms 68:9 ; compare Psalms 10:17 , 12:5 ).
11. gave the word--that is, of triumph.
company--or, choir of females, celebrating victory ( Exodus 15:20 ).
12. Kings of armies--that is, with their armies.
she that . . . at home--Mostly women so remained, and the ease of victory appears in that such, without danger, quietly enjoyed the spoils.
13. Some translate this, "When ye shall lie between the borders, ye shall," &c., comparing the peaceful rest in the borders or limits of the promised land to the proverbial beauty of a gentle dove. Others understand by the word rendered "pots," the smoked sides of caves, in which the Israelites took refuge from enemies in the times of the judges; or, taking the whole figuratively, the rows of stones on which cooking vessels were hung; and thus that a contrast is drawn between their former low and afflicted state and their succeeding prosperity. In either case, a state of quiet and peace is described by a beautiful figure.
14. Their enemies dispersed, the contrast of their prosperity with their former distress is represented by that of the snow with the dark and somber shades of Salmon.
15, 16. Mountains are often symbols of nations ( Psalms 46:2 , 65:6 ). That of Bashan, northeast of Palestine, denotes a heathen nation, which is described as a "hill of God," or a great hill. Such are represented as envious of the hill (Zion) on which God resides;
17. and, to the assertion of God's purpose to make it His dwelling, is added evidence of His protecting care. He is described as in the midst of His heavenly armies--
thousands of angels--literally, "thousands of repetitions," or, "thousands of thousands"--that is, of chariots. The word "angels" was perhaps introduced in our version, from Deuteronomy 33:2 , and Galatians 3:19 . They are, of course, implied as conductors of the chariots.
as . . . Sinai, in the holy place--that is, He has appeared in Zion as once in Sinai.
18. From the scene of conquest He ascends to His throne, leading--
captivity captive--or, "many captives captive" ( Judges 5:12 ).
received gifts for men--accepting their homage, even when forced, as that of rebels.
that the Lord God might dwell--or literally, "to dwell, O Lord God" (compare Psalms 68:16 )--that is, to make this hill, His people or Church, His dwelling. This Psalm typifies the conquests of the Church under her divine leader, Christ. He, indeed, "who was with the Church in the wilderness" ( Acts 7:38 ) is the Lord, described in this ideal ascension. Hence Paul ( Ephesians 4:8 ) applies this language to describe His real ascension, when, having conquered sin, death, and hell, the Lord of glory triumphantly entered heaven, attended by throngs of adoring angels, to sit on the throne and wield the scepter of an eternal dominion. The phrase "received gifts for (or literally, among) men" is by Paul, "gave gifts to men" ( Ephesians 4:8 ). Both describe the acts of a conqueror, who receives and distributes spoils. The Psalmist uses "receiving" as evincing the success, Paul "gave" as the act, of the conqueror, who, having subdued his enemies, proceeds to reward his friends. The special application of the passage by Paul was in proof of Christ's exaltation. What the Old Testament represents of His descending and ascending corresponds with His history. He who descended is the same who has ascended. As then ascension was an element of His triumph, so is it now; and He, who, in His humiliation, must be recognized as our vicarious sacrifice and the High Priest of our profession, must also be adored as Head of His Church and author of all her spiritual benefits.
19-21. God daily and fully supplies us. The issues or escapes from death are under His control, who is the God that saves us, and destroys His and our enemies.
21. wound the head--or, "violently destroy" ( Numbers 24:8 , Psalms 110:6 ).
goeth on still in . . . trespasses--perseveringly impenitent.
22. Former examples of God's deliverance are generalized: as He has done, so He will do.
from Bashan--the farthest region; and--
depths of the sea--the severest afflictions. Out of all, God will bring them. The figures of Psalms 68:23 denote the completeness of the conquest, not implying any savage cruelty (compare 2 Kings 9:36 , Isaiah 63:1-6 , Jeremiah 15:3 ).
24-27. The triumphal procession, after the deliverance, is depicted.
They have seen--impersonally, "There have been seen."
the goings of my God--as leading the procession; the ark, the symbol of His presence, being in front. The various bands of music ( Psalms 68:25 ) follow, and all who are--
26. from--or literally, "of"
the fountain of Israel--that is, lineal descendants of Jacob, are invited to unite in the doxology. Then by one of the nearest tribes, one of the most eminent, and two of the most remote, are represented the whole nation of Israel, passing forward ( Numbers 7:1-89 ).
28, 29. Thanks for the past, and confident prayer for the future victories of Zion are mingled in a song of praise.
29. thy temple--literally, "over"
Jerusalem--His palace or residence ( Psalms 5:7 ) symbolized His protecting presence among His people, and hence is the object of homage on the part of others.
30. The strongest nations are represented by the strongest beasts (compare Margin).
31. Princes--or, literally, "fat ones," the most eminent from the most wealthy, and the most distant nation, represent the universal subjection.
stretch out her hands--or, "make to run her hands," denoting haste.
32-36. To Him who is presented as riding in triumph through His ancient heavens and proclaiming His presence--to Him who, in nature, and still more in the wonders of His spiritual government, out of His holy place ( Psalms 43:3 ), is terrible, who rules His Church, and, by His Church, rules the world in righteousness--let all nations and kingdoms give honor and power and dominion evermore.
