Pentagon Division, originally Admiral Farragut Battallion, was redesignated in light of the September 11th attacks in 2001. Bearing the namesake of our great nation's symbol of military strength and the motto "Let's Roll!", the last words spoken by one of the passengers on flight UA 93, the officers and cadets of Pentagon Division pride themselves in everything they do. These youth, although not in any way obligated to a future in armed forces, develop skills in lead Seamanship and teamwork and take the Navy core values with them in their daily lives. These cadets are a proud testimony to the future of this nation, no matter where life will take them.
A medical examination similar to a high school sports physical is required for all cadet applicants to the Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) or Navy League Cadet Corp (NLCC). No one will be denied admission to the NSCC/NLCC due to a medical disablity. Where a medical condition precludes full, unlimited participation, a Request for Accomodation (NSCADM 015) may be presented by the parent or guardian for review so the cadet may participate in NSCC activities to the maximum extent possible.
Adult applicants must be in good heath commensurate with their age group and be free from any ailment or condition that would prevent them from satisfactorily performing their primary duty of supervising youth. NOTE: Adults not physically qualified to perform all duties may still participate with a waiver from NHQ considering the parameters of their expected contribution to the NSCC program

Thoughts from a Tuesday
-I packed up one of my offices today – crazy, and so exciting
-Tornadoes scare the sh*t out of me and I can't imagine what the people of OK must be going through – makes wedding decor seems like the stupidest thing in the world
-Matt is keeping me sane by doing a million things – he made mini burgers tonight that turned out awesome! Can't wait to eat more burgers at summer bbqs
-I just got super excited to hang out at the beach next week. And I get to see SOOO many friends!!
-Thanks for reading while my posts are sporadic and frantic
-I still need more romance novel recommendations!
Read MoreA Winter BBQ
I think everyone on twitter and facebook already said this a million times today, but oh my goodness the weather made me feel amazing!!!
Though I wanted to do something outside, I was stuck in a staff meeting and I really wanted to take the muscle pump class at my gym because I look forward to it all week. Perhaps I can fit in a walk tomorrow if it doesn't rain. I keep thinking we've emerged from this dark winter, but then I remember we're still in the middle of it. Oh well. I pretended it was springtime and felt inspired to drink a smoothie. I picked up a delicious bag of oranges this week and have been eating them non-stop. This smoothie was just oranges and frozen strawberries with a sprinkle of stevia.
Ok, I may have added a little white rum:) Blame it on the weather.
People were outside firing up the grills! And I had a burger myself. I saw an awesome recipe for asian turkey burgers, but I was too lazy to source the long list of ingredients and settled for a classic: bbq, cheddar, and bacon.
It was a low-key weekend around here because of the big holiday week coming up. So, we got drinks & nachos with friends on Friday, and had date night on Saturday. Of course, other boring things like laundry, spinning, and grocery shopping took place.
Matt and I have been planning to buy our wedding bands during the annual sale at Diamonds Direct – I was expecting it around Christmas, but was surprised to hear that it was this weekend! So, at the last minute, we headed Raleigh to get 20% off! We weren't prepared and felt a little rushed, but after a glass of champagne and a lot of guidance from the wonderful sales people, we both found rings!!!! I got a simple band with pave to match my engagement ring and Matt got a palladium ring with two small lines along the border. Making the purchase got me really excited – we are exchanging vows in just 6 months!
But really, the point of all this is to say that we were in Raleigh on Saturday, and took the opportunity to check out a burger joint. Chuck's is one of Ashley Christensen's restaurants – we loved her other two: Poole's Diner and Beasley's Chicken and Honey! The restaurant was really casual and the prices were low. I just love it when you can get an awesome meal at a restaurant with a cool vibe and not spend a fortune.
We were very hungry when we arrived, so we ordered the Belgian fries right away. I really liked that we got to pick sauces (along with ketchup) – we chose the sweet chili sauce and the horseradish aioli. All were good! And the fries were absolutely perfect.
I appreciated that the menu offered little burgers (5oz) because the half pounder looked too big. I picked the Last Word, which had truffle cheese, shredded kale, and hazelnut vinaigrette. The flavors were so unique and this was one of the best burgers I've ever had. Even Matt, who had a massive man-burger with chili, slaw, and cheddar, liked my burger the best:)
The true Last Word was the salty peanut butter and banana milkshake that we ordered with bourbon!!! Talk about a sweet ending…
I only wish Chuck's were a bit closer so I could go back!
Only two days this week and both were declared jeans days – I've never been this pumped for Monday:)
Read MoreA Beer & No Bull
I had another great day in the classroom! It almost gave me the itch to go back to school…and then I remembered that education costs a fortune. And I can't spend a fortune, because I need beer money…
Hummus on Hummus
How's the going?
I can't believe it's Friday again (almost). The four-day work week is so nice, but makes for more work crammed into four days! Work is picking up and I'm getting more comfortable with my buildings. But I'm still completely wiped out. I'll just never be good at getting up at 6. I want to be good at it, I really do. At least I'm good at eating.
I wanted to make something new this week, so I tried Emily's Chickpea Burgers! Matt was kind enough to mix up the batter while I was at the gym so all I had to do was form the burgers and throw them in a pan. The flavor was great, but my large [Great Harvest] bun was too big for this burger, so my ratio wasn't ideal. I topped it with sprouts and goat cheese, but what I really wanted on top of this hummus burger was hummus. Imagine that.
It's about that time when I need to start brushing the teeth, but it's hard to settle down when KATH IS IN LABOR!

Because only five star reviews make no sense, and are not helpful if not sincere, I try to write honest and, as much as I can, fair reviews. So I came up with some "weights" for the stars and this is what they mean in my reviews:
5 Stars = an excellent amazing recipe, the kind of dish that I would recommend to others, make again and again, and would not be ashamed to make for anybody. Basically, these are the recipes that would get 6 Stars if there were that many to give.
4 Stars = a great dish! Just not the amazing great that is unforgettable and you would make for somebody as a special gift or a Thank You...
3 Stars = a good recipe. If it's an easy simple recipe I would make it again for convenience, but would not do it often. Also, these are sometimes the recipes that I would substantially change the next time.
2 Stars = edible, but just didn't work for us. Something is missing and with all other recipes out there would not make this again.
1 Star = I am not sure what this would be. I imagine I am saving 1 Star for something that is inedible... I once made a horrible eggplant cheese casserole that we decided to throw out after just one bite. We did not even try to see if the dog would like it... Well, THAT was a 1 Star easily!

A few weeks ago, I pointed out that Arizona's economy has been disproportionately fueled by the construction industry. In 2006, the proportion of Arizona's total economic output from construction stood at 7.4 percent, 50 percent higher than the U.S. proportion of 4.8 percent. I attributed this to the relatively high commercial property taxes assessed at a rate twice as high as that of residential property.
Interestingly, manufacturing contributed more to Arizona's total economic output, 8.1 percent, in 2006 than construction did. But at 11.8 percent, the share of U.S. output from manufacturing is almost 50 percent higher than Arizona's.
From 2001 to 2005, Arizona's value-added from manufacturing actually fell. In fact, ours was the worst performance of all 50 states over that period. While most of our regional competitors (Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, Idaho) were increasing their manufacturing sectors, New Mexico by 200 percent, Arizona's decreased 16 percent. This is all the more evidence that our tax structure is determining our fate.
Arizona is at a crossroads. If we choose to get government spending at all levels under control and then rationalize our tax system by making it more lucrative to open a business, we can avoid becoming the biggest bedroom community in the nation. It's worth rising to the challenge.

French Startups Take Refuge in New York
We won't attempt to spell the way Ilan Abehassera pronounces the word "entrepreneur." It's as elaborate, grand and guttural as you'd expect from a French native, but you can tell he's holding back a bit, Americanizing the consonants and clipping his vowels just slightly. It's probably unconscious; the entrepreneur has been in the U.S. for eight years, most of them in New York. "NYC Entrepreneur" is the title of his website. He is the founder and CEO of productivity suite Producteev.
It's funny, the tech industry is so obsessed with entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship. "I'm an entrepreneur," says Justin Timberlake in the Social Network, with a cocky half-smile, as he pulls a shirt over his head after bagging a Stanford hottie. It's a favorite descriptor in Twitter bios and LinkedIn pages. Lately, nothing is sexier than "an owner or manager of a business enterprise who makes money through risk and initiative."
We forgot it was a French word, we admitted. Mr. Abehassera laughed. "I don't know why though, because you have much better entrepreneurs than in France," he said. Read More

Triad refers to the many branches of Chinese transnational organized crime organizations based in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and also in countries with significant Chinese populations, such as the United States, Canada, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Siam (now Thailand), the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.
The term "Triad" was assumed to be coined by British authorities in colonial Hong Kong, as a reference to the triads' use of triangular imagery.[1] While never proven, it is "highly probable" that triad organizations either took after or were originally part of the revolutionary movements called the White Lotus Society,[2] and quite possibly, The Boxers.
In 1644, the Battle of Shanhai Pass placed the Qing Dynasty into power of mainland China upon defeating the Ming Dynasty. The ruling Qings were afraid of the Shaolin Monks and ordered them to be destroyed under Shunzhi Emperor. The Shaolin Monks fled and marked the beginning of Chinese secret societies. According to folklore, only Five Shaolin Monks survived and escaped, seeking refuge in the Sacred Mountains of China. The five monks were referred to as The Triad Five Elders and founded the martial art known as Ng Jo Kuen. The Tiandihui were believed to derive from Ming Dynasty loyalists and these Shaolin monks.
In the 1760s, the Heaven and Earth Society (天地會), a fraternal organization was founded, and as the society's influence spread throughout China, it branched into several smaller groups with different names, one of which was the Three Harmonies Society (三合會). These societies adopted the triangle as their emblem, usually accompanied by decorative images of swords or portraits of Guan Yu. Their aim was to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore Ming Dynasty.
In British Hong Kong, there was a strong intolerance for secret societies. While being unaware of their previous issues the British considered the Tiandihui a criminal threat. The Tiandihui were charged and imprisoned in Hong Kong which was under British law at that time.
During the 1800s, many such societies were seen as legitimate ways of helping new immigrants from China settle into a new country. Secret societies were officially banned by the British government in Singapore during the 1890s and slowly stamped out by successive colonial governors and leaders over time. Tracing the origins of Singapore gangs, the opium trade, prostitution and brothels were also banned. Immigrants were encouraged to seek help from a local kongsi instead of turning to secret societies, which also contributed to their decline. After World War II, these societies saw a resurgence as gangsters took advantage of the uncertainty and growing anti-British sentiment. Certain Chinese communities, such as some "new villages" of Kuala Lumpur and Bukit Ho Swee in Singapore became notorious for gang violence.
When the Chinese Communist Party came to power in 1949 in mainland China, law enforcement became stricter and tough governmental crackdown on criminal organizations forced the triads to migrate to Hong Kong, then a British colony. It was estimated that in the 1950s, there were about 300,000 triad members in Hong Kong. Academics at the University of Hong Kong say that most triad societies were established between 1914 and 1939, and that there were once more than 300 in the territory. Since then the number of such groups has consolidated to around 50, of which 14 are still regularly in the eye of police. There were nine main triads operating in Hong Kong and they had divided the land according to their ethnic groups and geographical locations, with each triad in charge of a region. The nine triads were Wo Hop To, Wo Shing Wo, Rung, Tung, Chuen, Shing, Sun Yee On, 14K and Luen. Each of them had their own headquarters, sub-societies and public fronts. After the 1956 riots, the Hong Kong government introduced stricter law enforcement and the triads became less active.
Triads currently engage in a variety of crimes from extortion and money laundering to trafficking and prostitution. They also are involved in smuggling and counterfeiting goods such as music, video, and software as well as more tangible goods such as clothes, watches, and money.[3]
Triads have been engaging in counterfeiting since the 1880s. Between the 1960s and 1970s, triads were involved in counterfeiting Chinese currency, often of the Hong Kong 50-cent piece. In the same decade, the gangs were also involved in copying books, usually expensive ones, and selling them in the black market. With the advent of new technology and the improvement of the average person's standard of living, triads have progressed to producing counterfeit goods such as watches, film VCDs / DVDs and designer apparel such as clothing and handbags.[4] Since the 1970s, triad turf control was weakened and some triads shifted their revenue streams to underground as well as legitimate businesses.[5]
In 2012 in Japan, four triad members were found conducting operations regarding health care fraud and arrested.[6]
Triads use numeric codes to distinguish between ranks and positions within the gang; the numbers are inspired by Chinese numerology based on the I Ching.[7] "489" refers to the "Mountain" or "Dragon" Master (or 'Dragon Head'), while 438 is used for the "Deputy Mountain Master", a "432" indicates "Grass Slipper" rank[8] and the Mountain Master's proxy, "Incense Master", who oversees inductions into the Triad, and "Vanguard", who assists the Incense Master. "426" refers to a "military commander", also known as a "Red Pole", overseeing defensive and offensive operations, while "49" denotes the position of "soldier" or rank-and-file member. The "White Paper Fan" (415) provides financial and business advice, and the "Straw Sandal" (432) functions as a liaison between different units.[9][10] "25" refers to an undercover law enforcement agent or spy from another triad, and has become popularly used in Hong Kong as a slang for "snitch", i.e. informant. "Blue Lanterns" are uninitiated members, equivalent to Mafia associates and, as such, do not have a number designation.
Similar to the Italian mafia or the Japanese yakuza, Triad members tend to be subject to initiation ceremonies.[11] A typical ceremony takes place at an altar dedicated to Guan Yu, with incense and an animal sacrifice, usually a chicken, pig or goat. After drinking a mixture of wine and blood of the animal or the candidate, the member will pass beneath an arch of swords while reciting the triad's oaths. The paper on which the oaths are written will be burnt on the altar to confirm the member's obligation to perform his duties to the gods. Three fingers on the left hand will be raised as a binding gesture.[12]
The Triad initiate is required to adhere to "the 36 oaths."[13]

After entering the Hung gates I shall be loyal and faithful and shall endeavour to overthrow Ch'ing and restore Ming by co-ordinating my efforts with those of my sworn brethren even though my brethren and I may not be in the same professions. Our common aim is to avenge our Five Ancestors.
Tongs are similar to triads except that they originated among early immigrant Chinatown communities independently, rather than as extensions of modern triads. The word literally means "social club," and Tongs are not specifically underground organizations. The first Tongs formed in the second half of the 19th century among the more marginalized members of early immigrant Chinese American communities for mutual support and protection from nativists. These Tongs modeled themselves on triads, but they were established without clear political motives, yet they become involved in criminal activities such as extortion, illegal gambling, drug trafficking, human trafficking, murder and prostitution.[14][15] In recent years, some Tongs have reformed to eliminate their criminal elements and have become civic-minded organizations.[citation needed]
Triad activities were also present in Chinese communities around Southeast Asia. When Malaysia and Singapore, which have the region's largest population of ethnic Chinese, first became Crown Colonies, secret societies and triads were much more common and controlled the local communities similar to the way the Sicilian Mafia did through extortion of "protection money" and illegal money lending. Many conducted blood rituals such as drinking one another's blood as a sign of brotherhood, while others engaged in running opium dens and brothels.
Remnants of these former gangs and societies still exist. Due to the efforts of the government in both countries to reduce crime, such societies have largely faded away from the public eye, especially in Singapore.
Triads were also common in Vietnamese cities with large Chinese (in particular Cantonese and Teochew) communities. Especially during Vietnam's French colonial period, many businesses and wealthy residents in Saigon (especially in the Chinatown district) and Haiphong were under the tutelage and control of various protection racket gangs. Failure to provide such payments often result in various reprisals from the triad, ranging from assault, kidnapping for ransom, destruction of property, robbery and even murder of the client or a family member.
However, with the arrival of Vietnamese independence in 1945 (in the North) and 1955 (in the South), organized crime activity, including protection rackets, was drastically reduced as both the Northern and Southern governments purged criminal activity in their halves of the country. President Ngô Đình Diệm in the South ordered the military to eliminate, disarm, and imprison organized crime groups in the Saigon-Gia Định-Biên Hòa- Vũng Tàu region and in cities like Mỹ Tho and Cần Thơ in the Mekong Delta. Diem also banned brothels, massage parlours, casinos and gambling houses, opium dens, bars, drug houses and nightclubs (which are all establishments triads frequented). In the North under Ho Chi Minh, law enforcement was even stricter with stringent control and monitoring in the activities of its' citizens. The Northern communist government purged and imprisoned organized criminals, including triads, in the Haiphong and Hanoi areas, along with shutting down businesses which it viewed as "capitalist", "Western" or "decadent" while collectivizing and nationalizing all other private businesses and properties.
Triads are also active in other regions with significant overseas Chinese populations: Macau, Taiwan, Hong Kong Triads and countries such as the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Brazil, Peru and Argentina. They are often involved in helping immigrants enter countries illegally. Shanty & Mishra (2007) estimate that annual profits from narcotics is $200 billion; revenues from human trafficking into Europe and the United States are believed to amount to $3.5 billion per year.[16]
This section does not cite any references or sources. (February 2010) |
The Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) is a division within the Hong Kong Police Force that is responsible for triad countermeasures. The OCTB and Criminal Intelligence Bureau work together with the Narcotics Bureau and Commercial Crime Bureau to process data and information collected by their operation units to counter triad leaders. Other departments involved in countering triad activities include Customs and Excise Department, Immigration Department and ICAC. They cooperate with the police to impede triads' expansions and other organized gangs.[17] Police actions regularly target organised crime, including raids on entertaining establishments under control of triads, and the placing of operatives deep undercover[5] – this was the central theme to the Infernal Affairs trilogy.
The Guns and Gangs Unit of the Toronto Police Service is a specialized command detective unit that is responsible for handling triads. Formerly the Asian Gang Unit of the Metro Toronto Police was responsible for dealing with triad related matters, but a larger unit was created to deal with the broader array of ethnic gangs in the city.
At the national (and in some cases provincial) level, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police's Organized Crime Branch is responsible for investigating all gang related activities including triads. The Canada Border Services Agency Organized Crime units works with the RCMP to detain and remove non-Canadian triad members.
The Organized Crime and Law Enforcement Act was created to deal with organized crime and gives a tool for police forces in Canada to handle organized criminal activities. This Act enhances the general role of the Criminal Code of Canada (with amendments to deal with organized crime) in dealing with triad criminal activities.
As of 2011, it was estimated that criminal gangs associated with triads controlled 90% of the heroin trade in Vancouver. [18] Due to its geographic as well as demographic characteristics, Vancouver is the point of entry into North America for much of the heroin produced in Southeast Asia, much of the trade being controlled by international organized crime groups associated with the triads.[19][20]
Primary laws in addressing the triad problem are the Societies Ordinance and the Organized & Serious Crimes Ordinance. The former was enacted in 1949 to outlaw triads in Hong Kong. It stipulates that any person convicted of professing or claiming to be an office bearer or managing or assisting in the management of a triad can be fined up to HK$1 million and a prison term of up to 15 years.[5]
Since the 1970s, the power of triads has further diminished due to the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption in 1974. The agency targeted brazen corruption within police ranks linked with triads.[5] Being a member of a triad is already an offence punishable by fines ranging from HK$100,000 to HK$250,000 and three to seven years imprisonment under an ordinance enacted in Hong Kong in 1994,[5] and aims to provide the police with special investigative powers, to provide heavier penalties for organized crime activities and to authorize the courts to confiscate the proceeds of such crimes.

Since I'm using a knit fabric I thought I should remove the darts. I looked up some references and rotated the darts into the armscye as instructed. I must have done something wrong though, and you can tell in these pictures. The armscye is too low and the side seams are slanting toward the front instead of running along my sides.
I'm a little annoyed with myself at that part (yet again, should have made a muslin!) but I think it's one of those things most people won't notice. Otherwise, I really really love this cardigan! I'm sure it will get a lot of wear this Spring...or now, since it's almost 80 degrees here. It was freezing two weeks ago. Hello, weird Florida weather!
I also cut the skirt piece a bit short. I left that part unhemmed since I'm using a knit fabric and I think it looks ok as is.
The gathering at the waist was done a little differently. I used narrow elastic cut to my waist measurement and pinned at even points along the seamline. I really like how this turned out! It gives perfectly even gathers and seams to work really well on lightweight fabric.
I still have about a yard of this material left so I'll have to see what else I can squeeze out of it. Maybe a circle scarf?
Thankfully, my motivation is back in a big way! I've been cleaning and reorganizing the house like a madwoman and taking on a new year's challenge to cut processed foods out of my diet. Which means that I've also been cooking almost every night! I may blog about this later, even though it isn't sewing related.
I'm also participating in Amy of Cloth Habit's Bramaking Sew-Along! I've been meaning to make more bras since I took Anne St. Clair's class last year, but honestly I've been too afraid of tacking it again myself. So I'm hoping this will help me along. There are over 100 participants so far! I'm still amazed by that. But really, with all the problems most women have finding a bra that fits I can definitely understand why more of us are learning how to make them ourselves.
So, what are you working on?

If you haven't hear about BOOBQUAKE 2010. I suggest that you read this…
and this…
For those of you who don't feel like reading these 2 articles, here is my quick summary.
An Iran Cleric by the name of Hojatoleslam Kazim Sadeghi stated, "Women who dress provocatively and tempt people into promiscuity are to blame for earthquakes…"
I love how it is the women who are to blame for all of the wrong in the world. Of course it has nothing to do with the endless wars in the Middle East that are being fought because their "god" tells them to fight , or whatever crap that they believe. So anyways, in response to this ass-backwards idiot, Jen McCreight, who is herself a blogger, posted this blog and it created a firestorm of others who wanted to join the Boobquake! Even though I do not agree with everything that Jen believes in (e.g. atheism), I believe in Boobquake! Here is the facebook page also. You can even buy a t-shirt! And who doesn't love events that have t-shirts!?
So all of my fellow lady bloggers, I urge you to show your cleavage for the good of the country to show this a-hole that us women are not to blame for the earthquakes and everything that is wrong in the world!
I present to you all…. MY CLEAVAGE!

We just noticed last week that there was this white foam coming out of our oak tree about a foot above where the mulch is. From far away I thought it was bird poop but when I got closer, I touched it, and obviously it wasn't. Since we have noticed it there, there has been two other areas that have had foam coming out but have since dried up, but this first area is still the same. The foam is sweet smelling and the bugs seem to like it. I hope someone knows what it might be or can give me some type of direction. I appreciate any information!!
Follow-Up Postings:
Yep. Nothing you can do but keep your plant as happy as possible. I see that you have a mulch layer down. Make sure that chips are NOT piled up against the trunk but are spread in as wide an area as possible over the root system (which is actually well beyond the drip line). Keep the plant well watered during periods of drought, too. Plants can actually live with this systemic disorder for a long time and not succumb until stress kicks in. Heat and drought can be a problem. |

Sounds like tree sap if it's sweet smelling. If it were a bacterial ooze it would smell rather foul. Possible you may have some type of borer or other critter attacking the tree which caused a wound allowing sap to flow. Another possibility could be Oak Wilt (a vascular disease)...the fungus produces a sweet smelling sap that attracts sap-feeding beetles and other bugs, squirrels, etc. Then these beetles/creatures pass the infection on to healthy trees to feed on sap from un-infected wounds. The disease does spread in Nebraska. You can google for more info on Oak Wilt. But here is one article. Oak wilt is discussed under the last main heading. Vera |
Here is a link that might be useful: American Forests
Much more likely to be bacterial wetwood (also called slime flux). There are different kinds of bacteria that will colonize within trees, and some of them are more likely to produce a 'flux' that is fermented and yeasty. Many people describe the smell as sweet or even like beer! Insects will be attracted to this like crazy! What is the over all condition of the tree? Stand back and look at the canopy from a distance. |

Halloween Safety Tips from the Miami Township Police Department and the Miami Township Fire/EMS Department.
Tips from Symmes Township. (Click on link to News and Events, then "Halloween in Symmes")
Safety tips from Deerfield Township.
Dear Loveland Magazine,
Does anyone out there work for CINERGY Corp., or Lowe's? Or, another company that might support the mission of After Prom?
The Parents Teachers Students Association (PTSA) of Loveland High School tirelessly works to bring our high school students a fun, safe, substance-free alternative to dangerous "party" practices after the high school prom. It is called After Prom.
From Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Statistics: "During a typical weekend, an average of one teenager dies each hour in a car crash. Nearly fifty percent of those crashes involved alcohol" (MADD). Clearly, this has become a severe problem. "Alcohol use is the number one drug problem among young people".
How much more so do we have to be concerned about prom weekend?
After Prom is the safest place for students on prom night. When the prom is over at midnight, instead of continuing to "party" and perhaps mix drinking and driving and other dangerous activities, they have a safe, substance-free, fun place to continue the evening. Then they head to the After Prom where they are locked in with chaperones for the night. After Prom has been going on for 10 years -each year more students attending than the year before with now more students going to After Prom than the prom itself! 450 juniors and seniors attended last year.
Planning for After Prom-April 29, 2006 has already begun and I am writing grants to help pay for it. Does anyone out there work for CINERGY Corp., or Lowe's? Does anyone work for a company that might support the mission of After Prom? We will apply to them but we need the support of an employee. You do not have to volunteer more then the valuable assistance that you provide by giving your name in support to this project.
E-mail or call me and I will give you more details about After Prom.
Thanks, Judy Leever (email@example.com) Loveland, Ohio
LOVELAND, OHIO NEWS - A small group of area residents joined at the Loveland Veterans Memorial on Wednesday evening to light candles and pray for the casualties of the war in Iraq. The occasion marked the two-thousandth U.S. casualty since the war began.
It was expected that more than 100,000 people would gather at 1,354 candlelight vigils in all-50 states and DC to remember and honor the fallen soldiers. At the Loveland vigil, people stood in a circle and recited well-known prayers from many different religions and beliefs. People also talked about loved ones that have died in the war and families with young children held them tight, as they talked about the world their children are growing up in.
Prayers were said for area soldiers who are currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, and for Clermont County native, Mat Maupin who was captured and listed as presumed captured in Iraq. Prayers were said as well for U.S. leaders and the civilian causalities of the war.
A group of women from the Grailville Resort and Conference Center who were attending the Grail's national conference also attended. One of the women was from Bangor Maine. Most of the people in attendance were from Loveland, Miami and Symmes Townships, and the City of Montgomery.

No matter what type of ceremony you choose, there is a standard order of service that most couples follow.
Generally the names of everyone who is taking part in the service is included, such as the minister, names of family and friends who are taking part in the ceremony.
Have these professionally printed, or make them up yourself (on your home computer, it will save you some money). Print one copy per person, plus some spare copies that you may like to send to anyone, who can't make it to your wedding.
The actual order will vary from church to church, so ask to see samples from previous weddings to use as a guide. You can make minor changes and choose particular hymns, psalms and readings (if you need help ask your officiant). The normal order of entry is:

Launch of Stem Cell Exhibition in Dundee
30 January 2007
What? Opening Reception for Stem Cell Science – Hope not Hype exhibition
When? Thursday 1 February, 5.30-7pm
Where? Sensation Science Centre, Greenmarket, Dundee, DD1 4QB
Media welcome to attend – please register – details below
An exhibition from the UK's leading public funders of stem cell science is opening at the Dundee Sensation Science Centre on Thursday 1 February. The exhibition, "Stem Cell Science – Hope not Hype", developed by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and the Medical Research Council (MRC), describes the science and ethics of stem cell research. It will be at the centre for the whole of February.
An opening reception on the evening of Thursday 1 February will give attendees an opportunity to view the exhibition and to speak to local stem cell scientists. Lord Naren Patel, Chancellor of the University of Dundee will be speaking at the reception alongside Paul Jennings, Chief Executive of Sensation Science Centre. Lord Patel is a respected and well-known working peer and expert in obstetrics. He has been a vocal supporter of stem cell science and has recently been appointed as chair of the newly formed UK National Stem Cell Network which will have a key role in coordinating future UK activity in this area.
Professor Julia Goodfellow, BBSRC Chief Executive, said: "Stem cell science is one of the most exciting areas of biomedical research. It holds great hope for people suffering from currently incurable diseases. As research funders we have to marry expectations and hope with scientific reality. The exhibition opening in Dundee explores these issues and the other social and ethical questions where the scientific community is engaging with the public."
The Research Councils will also be holding a free discussion event alongside the Hope not Hype exhibition on Tuesday 20 February. The event will be an opportunity for people to meet experts to discuss stem cell science; its application, ethical issues and the legal framework that regulates it.

Django Festival All-Stars featuring Samson Schmitt, Ludovic Beier, Pierre Blanchard, DouDou Cuillerier, Peter Beets & Brian Torff
Sunday, August 3, 2014 Fort Adams State Park
Band/Personnel: Django Festival All-Stars | Samson Schmitt| Ludovic Beier| Pierre Blanchard | DouDou Cuillerier | Peter Beets | Brian Torff
Django Festival All-Stars
Samson Schmitt, son of legendary gypsy guitarist Dorado Schmitt from France, has played around the world with his Dad and especially in New York at the Django Reinhardt NY Festival for over 10 years. Here he has had the opportunity to play with US greats, Paquito D'Rivera, George Benson, Joe Lovano, Ken Peplowski, James Carter, an so many others who were guests of the Festival. He has also toured the top venues such as The Kennedy Center, The San Francisco Festival, Disney Hall, and many more. In Europe he has played alongside greats Angelo Debarre, Tchavolo Schmitt, Stochelo Rosenberg, Timbo Mehrstein, and Ludovic Beier. He tours Europe with his own bands and also with his father and two brothers Bronson and Amati.
Ludovic Beier, from Paris, has been a regular at the Festival on accordion and accordina, a very interesting instrument sometimes called a mouth accordion. He performs at major festivals all over the world alongside the greats of jazz. Born in 1978, jazz musician at heart since his childhood, Ludovic Beier is passionate about its "west-coast." Il découvre ses idoles (Chick Corea, George Duke, Charlie Parker, He discovered his idols (Chick Corea, George Duke, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, George Benson…) qui l'influencent au cours des années de sa formation musicale. Miles Davis, George Benson ...) that influence during the years of his musical training. In Europe, he played alongside the legendary guitarist Angelo Debarre which marked the beginning of his career as a jazz musician, and the rest is history. He traveled to NY to perform at Birdland, where he had an opprotunity to perform with Dorado Schmitt, Samson Schmitt, Tchavolo Schmitt and many great American Jazz greats, James Carter, Paquito D'Rivera et Frank Wess. He has recorded many CD's, the latest "Come Into My Swing". He the opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall at the MAGIC OF TOOTS, Tribute to Toots Thielemans alongside Herbie Hancock, Eliane Elias, Ivan Lins and others.
Pierre Blanchard also from France is a Violin virtuoso. When he is not joining the gypsies, Pierre performs with symphonies and other top artists, a very accomplished musician. He also teaches at top Universities in France. Trained at a very high level in the classical domaine (First Prize for Violin from the Conservatoire of Saint-Quentin in 1971, First Prize from the International Music University of Paris), Pierre Blanchard was quickly tempted by the adventure of improvisation and the Blue Notes in the mid 1970's. During this time he began to play "sideman" with his elders such as The Swing String System of Didier Levallet, who was recently Director of the French National Jazz Orchestra, the Jacques Thollot Quintet, and for five years with the Big Band of Martial Solal. Pierre has been performing at the Django Reinhardt Festival at Birdland and touring in the US for many years now playing with the Dorado Schmitt Allstars. In 1984, he received from Stephane Grappelli "The violin of ichel Varlop", a prize whose goal is to present to the public the most talented artists from the french school of the jazz violin.

- Conference date: 31 October–1 November 2008
- Location: Florence (Italy)
There are two fundamental types of stem cells: Embryonic Stem cells and Adult Stem cells. Adult Stem cells have a more restricted potential and can usually differentiate into a few different cell types. In the body these cells facilitate the replacement or repair of damaged or diseased cells in organs. Low intensity laser irradiation was shown to increase stem cell migration and stimulate proliferation and it is thought that treatment of these cells with laser irradiation may increase the stem cell harvest and have a positive effect on the viability and proliferation. Our research is aimed at determining the effect of laser irradiation on differentiation of Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) into different cell types using a diode laser with a wavelength of 636 nm and at Confirmation of stem cell characteristics and well as subsequent differentiation were assessed using Western blot analysis and cellular morphology supported by fluorescent live cell imaging. Functionality of subsequent differentiated cells was confirmed by measuring adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production and cell viability.

Texting while Driving There have been multiple senseless accidents and fatalities throughout the State due to drivers' texting while driving. Many drivers feel that this will not happen to them but we have seen time and time again that this is not true. I have attached the laws to the paragraphs to remind everyone of these laws.
Yielding to Emergency Vehicles Emergency vehicles, including police, fire and ambulances, respond to calls in Hancock every day. While some calls are ordinary, others include life-threatening situations. While responding to calls, emergency vehicles often use emergency lights and sirens. Lights and sirens are used to notify other vehicles as well as pedestrians of the oncoming emergency vehicle. Notifying other vehicles and pedestrians allows for vehicles to pull over and for pedestrians to be aware of the need to yield. When emergency vehicles respond to calls, they often respond at a higher speed than the posted speed limit. Driving in normal everyday situations can be dangerous. Responding to emergency calls at high speeds in traffic can be even more dangerous. For this reason, all states require traffic to yield to emergency vehicles. New Hampshire law states that upon the approach of an emergency vehicle, the driver of a vehicle shall immediately pull to the right as far as possible and come to a stop until the emergency vehicle has passed. Yielding to emergency vehicles also allows for a quicker response by the police, fire or ambulance. Remember these points:
"Move Over" law: Many times when an emergency happens on the roadway or someone is working on or near the roadway or even when we are stopping vehicles for violations of the laws, drivers on the roadway fail to provide enough room for the emergency or obstruction. By not providing that room, the driver's actions could place someone in danger of being injured or killed. The legislature has enacted a law to deal with this issue in an attempt to keep people from getting hit.
Pedestrian Safety: Throughout my career in law enforcement I have encountered a few pet peeves of mine. The next two topics are among those pet peeves. Many people do not understand or care that there are particular laws that pertain to pedestrians and bicyclists on the road. I want to remind these users of the roadways of these laws.
Bicycle Safety Below are some reminders to bicyclists on any public way within the State of New Hampshire:
In January of 2009 a new law passed that applies to vehicles as they approach bicyclists.
I wish everyone a safe and happy summer and please, if you see anything suspicious, report it to the Hancock Police Department at 525.4102 Ext. 40 to speak with a police dispatcher and they will have an officer respond. |
Mail fraud is a growing hindrance throughout the country. Times are tough for many; however there are several scams out there including lotteries. Many people feel that it is their lucky day when they open that piece of mail. There are several warning signs that include send money directly to the mailing address, bank account numbers so they can direct deposit the money into your account and personal information including your Social Security Number. Please be aware that if anyone needs an immediate payment to process the paperwork in order for you to receive your winnings, this is a scam. There are many more scams out there targeting the elderly. If you encounter something that seems too good to be true, then it probably is. You can find information on the Hancock Police Departments website. www.hancocknh.org click on Police Department link and on the bottom of the page you will see Identity theft, click on it. Please take a look at some of the noted scams that are out there now. Remember, that these people are ruthless on the telephone and will try anything to get your information. It is helpful to get contact information including a phone number from them and hang up. Stay safe and have an awesome summer! Please, if you see anything suspicious report it to the Hancock Police Department at 525.4102 Ext. 2 to speak with a police dispatcher and have an officer respond. |
Spring is here again and so are the door to door vendors selling everything from books to meat. We at the Hancock Police would like to caution residents of the ongoing problem of hawkers and peddlers who sell less than perfect products door to door. Please have safe summer and be aware of young people |

Psychedelic Gas
This psychedelic tableau is really an X-ray image showing a large blob of hot gas in the middle of a giant cluster of galaxies. The gas is the twisted orange mass at the center of the image. It spans about three million light-years, and is moving at more than four million miles per hour (750 km per second). It's also losing a lot of its gas -- enough gas every hour to make a star the mass of the Sun. This image was compiled from data from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory and XMM-Newton satellites.
