Soos – sportsman's club has first dibs on Cedar Lake
By Ray Dyer
Judy Soos told Canadian County commissioners on Monday that if the land and building used to house the Cedar Lake Fire Department ceases to be used by Canadian County, the Western Sportsman's Club has first dibs at buying it back.
Soos serves as fire chief of the all-volunteer Cedar Lake department. She's been attending the weekly county commission meetings since it was learned the Cedar Lake Fire Department building was sold at a recent county surplus auction. While the property was not supposed to be coded by the county as surplus, when it was donated by the Western Sportsman's Club in 2000, it was apparently tagged that way.
The club originally deeded the land to Canadian County so it could qualify for a state grant to help build the fire station. The Rural Economic Action Plan (REAP) grants can only go to government entities. Canadian County served as a "pass-through" for the grant, county officials said. Soos said she "believed the grant was for $50,000." She said another $40,000 in improvements have been made to the building over the years.
Soos said in the original agreement it "clearly stipulates" that if the property ceases to be used for the intended purpose, the Western Sportsman's Club has the first "right of refusal" to buy it back.
Commissioners agreed to table the item "indefinitely" until an agreement can be worked out with Howie Sutton, the Canadian County employee who purchased the property at the May 1 surplus auction. Sutton reportedly works in maintenance for the county. A Howard Sutton is listed as an employee on the Canadian County website. A voice message left for him at the county maintenance phone number was not returned by press time.
The sale price for the Cedar Lake property was reported to be $100.
Commissioner David Anderson said Assistant District Attorney Paul Hesse has been negotiating with legal representatives for Sutton.
County Treasurer Carolyn Leck said the DA was expecting to have more discussion with Sutton's representatives this week.
Anderson said the county will "take whatever action" is needed to have the sale rescinded. He said that includes legal action if necessary.
Leck said this was only the second time since 1994 that a property was incorrectly coded, allowing it to be purchased at the surplus auction. She said the first incident was easily corrected when the buyer agreed to have the sale rescinded.
Leck said all county properties have been re-examined to make sure coding is accurate.
Following the meeting, Soos said it was "no accident" that the property was purchased at this time. She said it's been coded as "surplus for 14 years, why now?"
Soos said Sutton has purchased six properties in the Cedar Lake area. Each property requires a $400 per year association fee. She said Sutton may be upset with the Western Sportsman's Club over the assessments.

BBC: Flash floods have killed at least 50 people as a tropical storm rages across the Philippines, officials say.
Most of the victims were on southern Mindanao island, including 40 around Iligan City, AFP news agency reported.
Many more people are reported missing and thousands of others have fled to higher ground.
Benito Ramos, head of the national disaster rescue agency, said reports were still coming in and the death toll was expected to rise.
He said 25mm of rain had fallen in 24 hours, causing rivers to burst their banks.
Mr Ramos said the victims included at least nine people in a single village in Lanao del Norte province as floodwaters struck in the middle of the night, trapping many residents in their homes.
"Massive flooding had been reported over the region, especially in Iligan City and Cagayan de Oro City," he said, adding that tens of thousands of people had escaped to high ground.
Forecasters said the eye of Tropical Storm Washi had passed close to Dipolog City, west of Iligan City, early on Saturday and it was now heading out into the Sulu Sea.
Iligan Mayor Lawrence Cruz said floods had swamped at least 10 villages on the city's outskirts.
"It happened so fast, at a time when people were fast asleep," he told GMA television.
GMA broadcast dramatic footage of a family escaping their flood-hit home by climbing through a window.
Rescue workers were pictured helping survivors to safety in chest-deep floodwater.
The Philippines are struck by several major storms every year.
Typhoons Nesat and Nalgae battered the country within days of each other in September, leaving more than 100 people dead.

My pool is almost ready, two day acid treatment done tomorrow,then start up, I noticed that there is a gap between the deck and the coping, is this the responsability of the pool maker to fill in? or is it an additional cost?
Thanks! |

Great question! What is in the contract? I normally see it added but not by all gunite pool builders. Some just leave a tear away foam between a concrete deck and the pool shell. Scott |
tangojay, If the deck is provided in the pool contract the mastic should be included. Sometimes there can be a gray area if a separate contract for the deck is used or you are using your own deck contractor. |

The March of Dimes is gearing up for its annual walk.
Walk-America, the March of Dimes largest fundraiser, which brought in $117 million nationwide last year, has been renamed March for Babies. The new name makes a clear connection to what the March of Dimes is all about – babies' health.
"The name of our event has changed, but our mission stays the same - working towards the day when every baby is born healthy," said Phyllis Stroud, executive director of the March of Dimes North Central Division.
"Would you believe it?" she says, with a laugh. She minored in library science, and later received a master's degree in library science.
Berry said she'll definitely miss the staff at the Lancaster library, which has become her second family. She's worked with county library director Richard Band since he started there 29 years ago. She'll also miss the Lancaster clientele.
A hundred years ago, people would line Elm Street with their horses and wagons to get ice and coal from Lancaster Ice and Fuel Co. on French Street.
"It was a really active business," said Chauncey "Bubber" Gregory Jr.
It was the only ice plant in Lancaster County, and it provided ice and coal to Springs Cotton Mills during its early years.
Gregory's grandfather, William Thurlow, operated the fuel and ice company.
Nearly 430 Duke Energy customers lost power in Lancaster County on Wednesday evening as strong thunderstorms swept through the area.
Most of the outages occurred in central Lancaster, Kershaw, Elgin and Tradesville, said Duke spokeswoman Paige Sheehan.
Almost all customers had service back by early afternoon on Thursday, except for a "handful," she said.
"We've basically restored everyone," she said.
At about 1 p.m. on Thursday, only seven customers were out in Lancaster, with more than 1,400 out between the areas of the Carolinas where the major storms hit.
A Lancaster native and political newcomer is vying for the Lancaster City Council District 4 seat.
Tamara "Missy" Green announced her candidacy on Sunday with a get-together at a home on Willow Lake Drive, land that has belonged to her family through the years.
Green said she deeply cares about the community.
"It brings me back to my roots," she said Sunday. "This district is truly dear to me."
About 30 people turned out for the gathering, also attended by former City Councilwoman Linda Blackmon-Brace, who is running for the District 3 seat on council.
Walk around Builders Supply and it's clear that the owners have altered the business with the times.
Seven warehouses, a loading dock, a parking lot for company trucks, innovative "lumber trees" and an administration building coupled with a small retail business dot the 12-acre property, which has been situated in the heart of downtown Lancaster for 100 years.
Strategically positioned next to the L&C Railway, the facility holds $3 million in inventory.
A walk down the halls and around the conference room gives one a sense of family and legacy.
The plaques and awards that adorn the walls in James Kirk's home speak volumes about what he meant to Lancaster County.
His daughter, Kathy Douglass, shed many tears Wednesday night while she read some of those accolades. The list is extensive.
Kirk died Wednesday at age 92. He was a former Lancaster city councilman, a member of the Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce and the Lancaster Soil and Water Conservation District.
When Jesse McCain neared the intersection of U.S. 521 and Old Camden Highway, he knew there had been an accident. He just didn't know how bad of a crash it was.
At 4:45 p.m. Thursday, moments before McCain arrived, two vehicles were involved in a wreck at the junction in the Elgin community.
Linda Carol Reeves, 36, of Kershaw, was driving a 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser southbound on U.S. 521 when a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero pulled out from Old Camden Highway and turned left in front of her, according to the S.C. Highway Patrol.
Simon Catoe juggled emotional attachment and job duties as he responded to his first-ever fire, which happened to be the blaze at his family's business early Saturday morning.
Catoe, 18, who just completed the fire academy last month, was in Myrtle Beach with his dad, Marvin, when they got the call about the fire at Catoe's Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Wiring on S.C. 9.
When they arrived at the business two hours later, the building was still engulfed in flames. Simon and Marvin Catoe suited up on the spot and joined their fellow Tradesville volunteer firefighters.
After a few days of sizzling heat, with temperatures topping out at 100 degrees Tuesday, forecasters are predicting a cool down of sorts for the area.
According to a personal weather station in the Erwin Farm area in Lancaster County, the average temperature for the last three days was 99 degrees.
High temperatures for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday were 97, 99 and 100 degrees.
With the combination of high heat and relative humidity, heat index values, or how the temperature feels to your skin, exceeded the 105 degree mark.

Gearbox has confirmed the existence of Borderlands 2, rumoured to be in development only yesterday. The game's down for release sometime in publisher 2K Games' fiscal year 2013, which begins April 2012, and you can expect the first round of hands-ons at Gamescom this month.
Visiting unexplored areas of bounty-hunter's favourite planet Pandora, the new game will "combine invention and evolution" with all new characters, skills, environments, enemies, weapons and equipment. You can expect "an ambitiously crafted story" and an improved mission system, plus the expected avalanche of randomly generated death-dealing oddities.
Environments will be more diverse, and enemies will be smarter. The original cell-shaded art style has been carried over as is. Here's an image of what appears to be the new cover star. We can't work out which scares us more, the beard or the guns.
Discussing unannounced Gearbox projects at large, studio president Randy Pitchford promised "wild new things" when we spoke to him earlier this year. Wild enough for you, readers?
Give our glowing Borderlands review a look if you've somehow missed out on the whole "surprise hit of this console generation" thing.

Here are four newly-rooted cuttings from this summer -- 2 on the table and 2 below it. I'm happy that they have done so well. Two of them are already potted up in 3-gallon pots with lots of roots coming out the holes. I think a lot of my success had to do with the QUALITY of the cuttings! (Thanks Bill)
Note that the two plants below the table were the exact same variety and I assume taken at the same time, but the one on the right had an inflo that I left on while it was rooting. It REALLY slowed down the rooting process - and I was a bit afraid it wouldn't root at all. See how much more advanced the left plant is? |

Dave looks like you have done a great job with your plumie cuttings as for the inflo I would not be able to cut it off either. Rigo |
Shows the effect of heat and humidity on rooting. With our cooler than usual summer, my cuttings are not as well leafed out as yours. Your plants look great. Bill |
- Posted by dave_in_nova VA zone 7a (My Page) on Fri, Sep 11, 09 at 9:08
Bill, you are right. With our heat and humidity, you just basically stick the cutting in a pot and forget about it. The humidity keeps the soil moist enough. I kept them all under an eave out of the rain until leaves were 6 inches long, then started a regular watering schedule. |

The Ocean area off Newfoundland and Labrador's coastline contains 1.1 million sq. km according to the Economic Research & Analysis—Publications of the Newfoundland Government contained in this url addess http://www.economics.gov.nl.ca/oceans2002/1.stm The coast of Newfoundland and Labrador is made up of thousands of inlets, coves, and bays with an estimated length of 17,540 km. Of this, the island of Newfoundland's coastline is approximately 9,655 km, and Labrador's is about 7,885 km. Canadian sovereign territory off the Atlantic Coast extends 380 km from the coast of the province, resulting in an ocean area off the province's coastline of approximately 1.1 million sq. km.

The total landmass of Newfoundland and Labrador is more than 3 times that of the 3 maritime provinces.

For those unfamiliar with communications (PR) protocols and conventions within the Government of Canada, this type of harsh, irrational response to an editorial from a public servant is almost without precedent. Politicians can say what they want, in and out of parliament to denigrate each other and the media, but no self-respecting civil servant would ever put this kind of vitriol on paper for public consumption. If he did, his superiors would certainly refuse to approve or even pass it along to the minister's office. But what we have seen from the 'Harper Government' in recent years is a deliberate blurring of the boundaries between what is governmental (bureaucratic) and what is partisan. It is reflected, for example, in the issuance of press releases by ministers that contain outright attacks on the opposition. Essentially the bureaucracy is being politicized. That has a number of nasty implications for public policy. Among other things, it moves us toward the American system in which a change of government often means a wholesale change of bureaucrats. Even if people like Jay Paxton are willing to abandon their objectivity in the interest of pleasing a minister, they should realize that any benefit to them personally could be short lived. It would not be unreasonable for an incoming government - e.g. a Trudeau administration - to move immediately to dismiss those civil servants who had crossed the line between being professional and being partisan.

A typical letter full of self-serving drivel....yes, real drivel...coming out of of the biggest BS CAPITAL of all....Ottawa. Mr. Paxton, go take your sorry crap elsewhere because you people just make me want to puke. We know what the reality is.... all you guys care about is optics. You could care less about whether your decisions are affecting the people of this province in any positive way. You are like the ugly step-sisters in Cinderella....keep telling us you are doing the right thing long enough.....and sure enough, you will begin to believe your own crap. How about cutting back on a hundred or so of the mindless minions who spew out YOUR drivel...... and re-allocating that money back into the St. John's JSRC, that your government so callously took away from us. Then, I might regain some respect for your ilk!!!

- May 07, 2013 - 14:25
You know darn well that when the director of communications for the minister of National Defence writes a letter to the editor, that Ottawa has caught on to the fact that Newfoundlanders and Labradorians are livid at how they have been treated in Canada. We have been part of Canada for 64 years and there is very little to show for it, either in economy or infrastructure, but much to show for it throughout the other provinces of Canada. Without the ability to have been able to exploit Newfoundland and Labrador's natural resources, its great strategic location and air space, Canada would never have amounted to what it did over the past 64 years in economic status or otherwise. Does anyone remember the slogan that is always used on National TV from Coast to Coast, from Halifax to Victoria? Nova Scotia gained the recognition and economic status that the province of Newfoundland and Labrador should have attained, since Nova Scotia had very little in the name of natural resources and its location couldn't hold a candle to that of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The province of Newfoundland and Labrador is Seven (7) times the size of the 3 Maritime provinces and it holds hundreds of thousands of square kilomenters of the Atlantic Ocean and the Air Space over that Ocean. Without the ability for Ottawa to have been able to freely exploit Newfoundland and Labrador's natural resources, its great strategic location and air space, Canada would never have amounted to what it did over the past 64 years in economic status.

Say what you will but this is the government that abolished the long gun registry. If you vote for the Liberals or the socialist NDP party they will take away our guns.

A) the gun registry did not take away anyone's guns B) "the right to bear arms" is a feature of the US Constitution. It is not part of Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms, so there is no such right here. If you like the US so much, I'm sure they'd love to have you.

Mr. MacKay is perhaps too preoccupied with patting himself on the back in recognition of the manner in which he cruised into town, and put out any fires burning pertaining to the issue of search and rescue, all in the media spotlight, to do his own dirty work. Then again, perhaps Mr. MacKay lacks the honesty and integrity to do his own dirty work, Mr. Mackay has Mr. Paxton state, in the article above, how he really feels about either the well-being of Newfoundlanders' and Labradorians who who could find themselves in need of the services of Search and Rescue personnell,' or the reaction of Newfoundlanders' and Labradorians in general; including our Premier and other Government M.H.A's, not tomention the Auditor General of Canada, when it comes to the quality, or lack thereof, of search and rescue effectiveness, on land or sea in this Province. If Mr. MacKay's callous response to the inadequacies, which exist in the Search and Rescue system, both in Canada in general, and in Newfoundland and Labrador, in particular, is any indication of how aware the Federal Government is about Search and Rescue needs, more lives will be lost.

The only partisan drivel involved in this announcement, Jay, is contained in your outraged - and disingenuous - response. Where are the long-promised replacement SAR aircraft for the 50-year old Buffalo and the horribly unsuitable Griffons? Or the overworked older-model Hercules.? "Better tracking and reporting of aircraft and aircrew availability" doesn't amount to much when there are no aircraft or aircrews available. It is another box to check on an online report form.

We hear you, Jay my son, but its hard to wash the smell away after closing the St. John's base most likely as continuing punitive actions falling out from the ABC election results. The harper government should look to the day when the sun will shine and ABC will be no more.

Oil prices dropped by more than $1 a barrel while gold sank below the $950 an ounce level on Tuesday as commodity markets staged a broad retreat.
Nymex July West Texas Intermediate lost $1.89 at $59.78 a barrel after ending trading in New York on Friday at $61.67. The Nymex exchange was closed on Monday for a US public holiday.
ICE July Brent fell $1.33 to $58.88 a barrel.
Ahead of the Opec meeting this week, comments from Saudi Arabia that that the oil producers' group was likely to "stay the course" was seen as an indication that current production quotas would be maintained.
Ed Meir of MF Global noted that rising geopolitical tensions had done little to boost oil prices following North Korea's test explosion of a second nuclear device and mounting violence in Nigeria over the weekend where militants claimed to have attacked major oil pipelines in the Niger Delta to disrupt a facility run by Chevron from operating.
Hedge funds have extended their bets that oil prices will increase with the latest data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission showing the speculative net long position in crude reaching a 13 week high.
"Clearly, more fund money is now banking on higher oil prices down the road, and although this stance is supported by the technicals, the fundamental side of the picture looks less promising, particularly in light of the likely Opec decision to leave quotas unchanged," said Mr Meir.
Francisco Blanch at Merrill Lynch said recent sharp liquidity increases by central banks were contributing to fuel a strong rebound in commodity prices and emerging market equities.
Mr Blanch noted that Opec had plenty of spare crude production capacity and that refining was no longer a bottleneck.
"Spare Opec capacity still stands at 6m barrels a day and we believe key members (of the cartel) would step in to increase output should crude oil prices breach the $80 a barrel mark in the coming months," said Mr Blanch.

Award-wining photographer HO Fan's (何藩) work captions a Hong Kong that is now all but forgotten. In 2010, HO Fan evisited negatives taken during the 50's and 60's in Hong. His photos display a fascination with urban life, explored alleys, slums, markets and streets.
HO Fan (b. 1931) enjoyed three distinctive careers, as award-winning photographer, Shaw Brothers' star and Director. Before joining Shaw Brothers in 1961, his photographs had attracted attention in international competitions. Fan Ho has won 280 awards from international exhibitions and competitions worldwide since 1956. Ho's works can be seen and have been published in many International Photographic Annuals all over the world. Ho has written five books, one of them containing all his award-winning prints that are currently part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco.
Before long, Ho Fan moved in front of the cameras, most notably as the monk in Shaw Brothers' lusty four-part adaptation of the classic novel ''Journey to the West'', including ''The Monkey Goes West'', ''Princess Iron Fan'' (1966), ''Cave of the Silken Web'' and ''The Land of Many Perfumes''. Ho became a full-time director after leaving Shaw Brothers in 1969, making a name in the erotic field with his experimental film ''Mi'' (1970), which was screened at the Cannes and Berlin Film Festivals and the commercial feature ''Adventure in Denmark'' (1973). Ho Fan's ''Temptation Summary'' (1990) was the first 'Category III' picture to surpass HK$10 million ad the box office.
It is this diverse cultural background that makes HO Fan's creative style so unique, full of lyrical beauty, dramatic power, and poetic grandeur.

Read a rundown on the top public policy issues facing state lawmakers in 2015, state-private sector partnerships for infrastructure, e-cigarettes and taxes and dealing with cuts to mental health programs.
Current Issue
Each year in the United States, one in three adults over 65 years of age falls. Long-term physical injuries, such as hip fractures and traumatic brain injuries, are merely the tip of the iceberg in terms of consequences and costs of older adult falls.
Note: Where no data is available the number of fatal older adult falls is too small to calculate a stable rate. Sources: National Conference of State Legislatures, 2013; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2013; and National Council on Aging, 2013.
Falls are not an inevitable part of aging and are largely preventable. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has developed a fall prevention tool kit for health care providers called STEADI (Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths and Injuries) to help them reduce falls by implementing the American Geriatrics Society's clinical guideline for fall prevention.
Some strategies to reduce falls include:
For more information about proven programs to reduce older adult falls, or additional examples of state policy action to address older adult falls please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
The tables below summarize 2014 pending legislation and recently enacted laws in ninestates to provide policymakers with an overview of state level activities that may help prevent the long-term consequences of older adult falls.
Senate Bill 2228 Would establishes a fall prevention and early detection Coordinator within Department of Health's Emergency Medical Services and Injury Prevention System Branch to coordinate fall prevention and early detection services for the elderly. Failed
House Bill 2053 This bill would establish a fall prevention and early detection program within the department of health's emergency medical services and injury prevention system branch. Enacted, Chapter 153
Senate Bill 938
Would require the establishment of nursing home patient care policies and compliance procedures based on nationally recognized guidelines, including the prevention of falls. Pending
House Bill 99
Would establish a statewide community-based adult fall risk awareness and prevention program. Enacted, Chapter 37
House Bill 2918/Senate Bill 296
Would include fall prevention and treatment as a medically necessary rehabilitation service in the West Virginia Fair Health Insurance Act of 2013. Failed
Session Law and Statute Information
Cal. Health and Safety Code §125704 (California Osteoporosis Prevention and Education Act) Requires the department of health services to develop effective protocols for the prevention of falls and fractures and establish these protocols in community practice to improve the prevention and management of osteoporosis.
Cal. Welfare and Institutions Code §9450 Requires the development of the "aging in place" concept be recognized and supported by the state as a means to retaining elders in their home with less injury. Requires that funding for education and making home improvements be facilitated through public and private sources. Requires that recommendations for changes in home modification policies and information for home modification projects and products be developed.
Conn. Gen. Stat. §17b-33 Establishes a fall prevention program within the department of social services that: supports research, development and evaluation of risk identification and intervention strategies; establishes a professional education program in fall prevention; and oversees and supports demonstration and research projects.
Fl. Stat. § 944.804 Requires the department of corrections to establish and operate a geriatric facility where generally healthy elderly offenders can perform general work appropriate for their physical and mental condition in order to decrease the likelihood of falls, accidental injury and other conditions known to be particularly hazardous to the elderly.
Ill. Rev. Stat. ch. 210 §155/20 Requires long-term care hospitals to report data on elderly falls to the department of healthcare and family services as part of the Long-Term Care Hospital Quality Improvement Transfer Program. Participating hospitals must report the number of falls with injury per 1,000 patient days in accordance with guidelines established by the Fall Prevention Protocol of the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators (NDNQI) and the number of falls among discharged long-term care hospital patients whose fall during the hospital stay necessitated an ancillary or surgical procedure.
Tex. Human Resources Code Ann. §161.351-3 Establishes "Fall Prevention Awareness Week." Allows the state's department of aging and disability services to develop recommendations to: raise public awareness about fall prevention; educate older adults and individuals who provide care to older adults about best practices to reduce the incidence and risk of falls among older adults; encourage state and local governments and the private sector to promote policies and programs that help reduce the incidence and risk of falls among older adults; encourage area agencies on aging to include fall prevention education in their services; develop a system for reporting falls to improve available information on falls; and incorporate fall prevention guidelines into state and local planning documents that affect housing, transportation, parks, recreational facilities, and other public facilities.
Wash. Rev. Code §43.70.705 Requires the department of social and health services to establish a statewide fall prevention program, including: networking with community services; identifying service gaps, making affordable senior-based, evaluated exercise programs more available; providing consumer education to older adults, their adult children, and the community at large; and conducting professional education on fall risk identification and reduction.

European Consumer Travel Report Fourth Edition
After years in the doldrums, the European economy is finally beginning to show signs of recovery. Millions who skipped out on vacations in 2011 and 2012 returned to the traveler pool in 2013, and consumers have a renewed sense of confidence. Phocuswright's European Consumer Travel Report Fourth Edition provides a close look at traveler behavior across three core European markets – France, Germany and the U.K. – which together represent close to 60% of Europe's total leisure and unmanaged business gross bookings. The study includes a comprehensive range of travel metrics, including leisure travel incidence, trip frequency and duration, travel expenditure, the use of online and offline channels, travel-related engagement via the mobile web and social networks, and more.

U.S. Consumer Travel Report Fifth Edition
While the U.S. economy showed clear signs of recovery in 2012, there were enough mixed signals to make vacation decisions difficult for many Americans. Through a longitudinal analysis, Phocuswright's U.S. Consumer Travel Report Fifth Edition examines traveler behavior along each step of the travel planning process - from the media travelers rely on to make destination and product decisions, to the channels they use to book and share their trip experiences. Key metrics include frequency and duration of trips, travel expenditure and travel component purchases, and travel intentions for the coming year.

At The Christ Hospital we offer the full spectrum of orthopaedic sports medicine care for injuries such as ACL tears, shoulder injuries, sprains, strains, breaks and more. We also offer one of the few concussion evaluation and management program in the Tristate.
Concussion evaluation and management
One of the ways to help determine the severity of a concussion, predict time to recovery from a concussion and monitor recovery following a concussion is through the use of ImPACT®, a computer-based neuropsychological test. The Christ Hospital Sports Medicine Concussion Management Program, led by Edward A. Marcheschi, MD, and with support of The Christ Physicians-Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine and The Christ Hospital Physical and Occupational Therapy Centers, offers adolescent and adult concussion evaluation and management.
'> Learn more as Dr. Edward Marcheschi discusses concussions
Improving outcomes for your athlete is our concern
The goal of The Christ Hospital Sports Medicine Concussion Management Program is to return the athlete to sport as quickly and as safely as possible following a sports concussion. ImPACT® provides us an important piece to a complicated puzzle. Younger-aged athletes are particularly vulnerable to the effects of a concussion without the appropriate management and in some cases this may lead to persistent headaches and lingering memory problems. Resuming collision sport activity prior to full recovery may even be catastrophic in this group of athletes.
Who else Uses ImPACT®?
· Major League Soccer
· US Army and US Navy
· Professional automobile racing
· USA Olympic sports
· Local high schools, colleges and universities
Your visit to The Christ Hospital Concussion Management Program
Athletes diagnosed with a concussion may be evaluated using ImPACT® on their first visit as determined by Dr. Marcheschi. Information regarding the athlete's symptoms and prior concussion history will be gathered and a neurological exam completed during that visit. Balance testing may be performed on that visit in conjunction with a Christ Hospital Physical Therapist or Athletic Trainer. After accumulating and reviewing all of this information, Dr. Marcheschi will be able to determine the severity of and prognosis for the athletes' concussion, allowing him to outline a plan for care and treatment.
All ImPACT® test results are evaluated by Dr. Marcheschi, of The Christ Hospital Sports Medicine Concussion Management Program.
Baseline ImPACT® Test – What you need to know
We recommend baseline testing of all athletes in collision and/or contact sports, however, any athlete of any sport can obtain a baseline test. A pre-season ImPACT® test objectively measures aspects of brain function unique to each athlete before having sustained injury to the brain. To learn more or schedule a baseline ImPACT® test please call 513.333.2580

There are some helicopter parts that are common amongst and essential to most helicopters you see flying in the sky, whether it's a police helicopter, a rescue helicopter, a transport helicopter or a helicopter doing aerial research. Some of these parts are the main and tail rotor, blades, and the cab. There are many, many more parts that most helicopters share, and while these may not be any more important than some of the others, they are the most visible.
Together, the main rotor and main rotor blades provide the energy and mechanism necessary to lift the helicopter off the ground. The main rotor turns the blades, and those blades (once the pilot tilts them) act as an airfoil, or aerofoil in England. An airfoil describes a situation where there's a pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of a wing or collection of blades, allowing a craft to put some distance between it and the ground. Needless to say, the main rotor and the main rotor blades are very important helicopter parts.
The main rotor creates an enormous amount of torque – and to provide an equal and opposite force helicopters need a tail rotor. To keep the helicopter from spinning around in place due to the torque created by the main rotor, every helicopter has some sort of tail rotor that can counteract that torque. Most helicopters have a tail rotor with tail rotor blades, which by spinning in the same direction (but vertically) fulfill this requirement. One exception to this is Notar technology found on 500N & 600N MD Helicopters. Both the main rotor and the tail rotor keep the helicopter, and its passengers or cargo in the cab, in the air safely.
The cab of a helicopter can vary drastically depending on what the helicopter is intended to do. For example, some rescue helicopters have enormous cabs, with more room than you can imagine, while some transport helicopters you see above downtown skylines only have enough room for two,four, or six passengers. The cab is one of the few helicopter parts that enjoys significant design and utility variations.

RDL (Radio Design Labs) FP-PA35A
Audio amplifier
The FP-PA35A is for applications where multiple 25V, 70V or 100V speakers in a zone need to be powered from a single audio power amplifier. It features a balanced line level input that may be connected unbalanced. A front panel gain control is designed to be adjusted manually or with a trimming screwdriver. The gain range will accommodate standard unbalanced levels as well as professional balanced levels. Multiple distributed sound system speakers connect to the corresponding amplified output. The FP-PA35A includes an analog compressor/limiter. The input gain setting determines whether the limiter alone is used for clipping suppression, or if the full compressor/limiter will be used to substantially increase the average output power beyond that of a standard 35 W amplifier.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Linen paper- So nice!
Damask Elegance Foldover Pockets I got the Damask Elegance pocket invitations and they turned out exactly how I expected them to look. The paper quality of the linen is really, really nice... and at no extra cost! I also like the Tiffany blue box they come in, carefully packaged with tissue paper. You feel like you are really getting good quality service. I've also had a lot of help from the customer service. I had trouble with the editor and they helped me find a solution that worked. Great quality, although a littttle expensive. I recommend!
Wedding Invitations
Damask Elegance Rectangle Invitations I love how my invitations turned out. I got the Damask style and they look great! I proofed everything and placed the order and naturally the next day I wasn't happy with how I layed out my invitation. I was able to call the next day and they took down my change requests and e-mailed all of my proofs to approve again and make any additional changes. Online doesn't give you the complete flexibility with size choice, but they go over anything they think will be too small and made the adjustments for me. I didn't know they did this so it was great that they look it over and notice somethign wouldn't work and fix it for me. I also love that I was able to make a 2nd check and not get stuck with my first selection. Delivery was very prompt, got in less than 2 wks.
Elegant, lovely program
Something Blue Rectangle Programs I ordered 200 of these Something Blue programs for my upcoming wedding in Charcoal Damask and Classic Blue for the stripe. I received them in pristine condition and they are printed on somewhat glossy, thicker, high quality card stock. The printing was clear and crisp, from the few I've flipped through so far. Make sure you make a note of the color of your names in the upper right-hand corner bubble; I didn't realize that was customizable, and our names came in a subtle cranberry color (which I wouldn't have chosen necessarily, but it still looks nice). Also, I had envisioned the programs would be a little larger, but they are perfect keepsake size. Even with these tiny notes, I am thrilled with them and would highly recommend.
Wonderful Programs
Something Blue Tea-length Programs We ordered these for our wedding ceremony programs. We cannot say enough pleasant things about the customer service or overall product. We were very pleased and MagnetStreet's editing was very helpful. Quick response and promt delivery! Highly recommend!
awesome wedding programs
Something Blue Wedding Program Fans These wedding programs looked great and I loved them! I liked how the colors could be customized to fit our wedding colors, and the fonts could be changed too. I was surprised at how quickly I received the programs as well. The only downside to these programs was the price, but besides this I loved the programs!

Igorot boxer defends title on Nov. 20
-A A +AMonday, October 25, 2010
REIGNING World Boxing Organization Oriental bantamweight champion Dayer Gabutan is set to defend his title against a Thai challenger on November 20.
And what a way to defend his title, as Gabutan of Besao, Mt. Province is set to defend his title in front of his fellow Cordillerans to be staged at the Cordillera Career Development Center (CDCC) Gym in Buyagan, La Trinidad.
The Ambagiw, Besao native captured his first professional boxing title when he defeated Jilo Merlin via a unanimous decision (116-113 twice and 115-113) in their 12-round minor title fight last July in Angeles City, Pampanga.
After two years of strutting his wares in the local professional boxing, Gabutan finally hit pay dirt after he got help from Thai promoter Nari Singwangcha aside from the backing of Brico Santig - his local promoter.
Gabutan's victory against Julius Agcopra last May, proved to be his stepping stone to inch closer to the vacant WBO Oriental bantamweight division.
"Nung naghahanap sila ng ilalaban sa championship ng WBO, sinabi ng manager ko na si Brico na subukan daw naming lumaban tapos yun na," Gabutan said.
The reigning WBO oriental bantamweight champion has now a record of 11 wins, one loss and 2 draws with five knock-outs.
"Sa ngayon balik muna ako sa training. Long run tsaka sparring para sa stamina," added Gabutan.
Also hitting the ring in the undercards are Remuel Obidos against Flash Apuya; comebacking Allan Tam facing Jayvee Alipio, Edwin Tumbaga clashing against Julius Alcopra, and Charlie Angel fighting William George.
Also in the undercard are Rey Loreto squaring off against Roy Jones, and lady boxers Jujeath Nagaowa and Baina Lando in the only female bout.

Green Alcohol, Duct Tape and WD-40
July 16, 2010 by Professor95 · 4 Comments
No, it is not a recipe for a new mixed drink. They are three of the most important items for any camper to have with them – any means those with tents to big motor homes. I'll start with the green alcohol. All RV's have sewage holding tanks that eventually need to be emptied. Tent campers often carry porta- potties that also need emptying. The amount of harmful fecal bacteria present in the effluent is overwhelming. There is enough stuff in one of those tanks to infect the entire population of my home town and still have some left over. I am appalled at the number of people I see dumping their sewage tanks with bare hands and no apparent method of disinfecting themselves. Some use heavy canvas work gloves or rubber gloves. But, unless they are disinfected all they do is spread the bacteria to their container and even the person using them. Disposable vinyl or latex gloves should always be used. Disinfecting is also necessary, but many campers ignore this important step... [Read more...]

One Tank Trip for Washington Camping
July 16, 2010 by Good Sam Team · 1 Comment
This One Tank Trip as seen in the 2010 Woodall's North American Campground Directory. Before you head out on this journey through Washington's picturesque landscape, make sure you've got everything you need for several days' worth of camping. When you see the almost primordial tapestry that nature has woven, you'll understand why Washington's nickname is the Evergreen State. Your route will take you through miles and miles of unspoiled wilderness, and within a stone's throw of volcano country. Washington State is truly a paradise for the outdoors person. Starting off this one tank trip in the big city of Tacoma, you can enjoy a taste of metropolitan life before you head out for the back territories. The Freighthouse Square Public Market was once a railway station before being converted into a collection of shops and eating establishments. It's also the home of an eclectic array of arts and crafts that have been handmade by local artisans. Go searching for that "must-have"... [Read more...]
MISSING RVers From St. Albert, Alberta

One Tank Trip for South British Columbia Camping
July 14, 2010 by Good Sam Team · Leave a Comment
This One Tank Trip as seen in the 2010 Woodall's North American Campground Directory. Starting off in Vancouver, one of the first things you notice about the city is how clean it is. In fact, it's rated as one of the cleanest cities in North America. Even though it's a major metropolitan area, the air is surprisingly clear. The streets are swept and the buses and trolleys are graffiti-free. You'll find a coffee shop on virtually every corner, and there's always a poetry reading or live music going on somewhere. Take a walk through Stanley Park, which sprawls over several acres and allows you to lose yourself among the trees as you follow the winding trails. Be on the lookout for the dark brown ground squirrels, which are only too happy to block your way and demand food for allowing you to pass through their turf. The aquarium at Stanley Park features many exhibits of fresh and salt water fish, some of which are rare or endangered. Traverse further through the park and you'll... [Read more...]

Woman pulls gun on Comcast serviceman. A New Mexico woman was arrested for pulling a gun on a Comcast worker because she was upset about a fee. The serviceman left the home because the woman refused to pay but she followed him to his truck. She grabbed one of his tool bags and ran back into her home. When the serviceman went to retrieve his bag the woman pulled out a gun and pointed it at him. The man left the scene and called the cops. They showed up a short time later and arrested the woman. She was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Slacker says he had a friend who put up audio / video stuff in Michael Jackson's home. He was creeping around and found a gigantic closet full of red shirts and black pants. He said his bathroom had a mirror from the floor to the ceiling with scuff marks all over it from MJ dancing. Slacker had a service guy working on his phone and started talking to him about a diary he had found in his junk drawer. Guilty! A pizza guy shouldn't ask to use Slacker's bathroom, boundaries!
Steve had a service shenanigan with a plumber. He had left his house while the plumber was there but forgot something so he had to go back. When he walked back inside, the plumber obviously didn't hear him because Steve found him lying on his bed.
What is the craziest customer service situation you've had to deal with?
Working in a restaurant, I deal with crazy people every day. I once had to chase a table out to their car because they left without paying. I didn't catch them but they did accidently leave their cell phone on the table, ha!

text: Bills increasing the penalties for child kidnapping have been easily approved in the Iowa Senate and House. Lawmakers backed the bills Tuesday, which were drafted in response to the kidnapping and killing of Dayton teen Kathlynn Shepard last year. The Senate legislation would increase criminal penalties in cases involving children 17 and younger and cases where the person convicted had previously been convicted of kidnapping. The House bill increases penalties in cases involving children 15 and under and would prevent those convicted of certain crimes from reducing sentences through good behavior. Authorities say Shepard was killed by Michael Klunder, a registered sex offender who had been released from prison after serving a reduced sentence. He killed himself after the incident.

BREKAING NEWS: EPA confirms Dimock water is unsafe. Josh Fox provides Pro-Publica with unreleased Dimock water tests. The families in Dimock have high to explosive levels of methane in their water wells. The families have been vindicated. Science triumphs over spin.
So, is Dimock's Water Really Safe to Drink?
When the Environmental Protection Agency announced last week that tests showed the water is safe to drink in Dimock, Penn., a national hot spot for concerns about fracking, it seemed to vindicate the energy industry's insistence that drilling had not caused pollution in the area.
But what the agency didn't say – at least, not publicly – is that the water samples contained dangerous quantities of methane gas, a finding that confirmed some of the agency's initial concerns and the complaints raised by Dimock residents since 2009.
The test results also showed the group of wells contained dozens of other contaminants, including low levels of chemicals known to cause cancer and heavy metals that exceed the agency's "trigger level" and could lead to illness if consumed over an extended period of time. The EPA's assurances suggest that the substances detected do not violate specific drinking water standards, but no such standards exist for some of the contaminants and some experts said the agency should have acknowledged that they were detected at all.
UPDATE: I had to add this list of chemicals in the Dimock Fractini.
Among the other substances detected at low levels in Dimock's water are a suite of chemicals known to come from some sort of hydrocarbon substance, such as diesel fuel or roofing tar. They include anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene and benzo(a)pyrene– all substances described by a branch of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as cancer-causing even in very small amounts. Chromium, aluminum, lead and other metals were also detected, as were chlorides, salts, bromium and strontium, minerals that can occur naturally but are often associated with natural gas drilling.

(April 30, 2014) – On April 29, 2014, at approximately 8:15 p.m. Ocean City police responded to a 32nd Street apartment for a report of a subject in possession of a handgun making threats. Upon arrival, officers quickly located and detained the suspect, later identified as Ralph Andrew McCabe, 23, of Snow Hill.
The investigation revealed that McCabe became irate with his girlfriend and another female and began destroying his girlfriend's belongings. McCabe later began threatening the two females while holding a handgun. During the subsequent investigation, officers located the handgun, in addition to evidence related to recent burglaries.
McCabe was arrested by Ocean City police and charged with multiple assault, burglary and malicious destruction charges. McCabe was seen by a Maryland District Court Commissioner and is currently being held without bond for the burglary charges and on $100,000 bond for the assault charges.

Hi Guys,
Been playing Talisman for years now and believe I have a fairly good grasp of the rules but please could you answer my question if you have time!
So, we're playing 4th edition Blood moon expansion and I am on the crown of command.
We are playing the blood moon werewolf alternative ending card and I am attacking a player who is on the valley of fire space. Its night. I am attacking him as its my turn and I am on the crown of command space. I am a Lycanthrope and am therefore attacking him because the rules on the alternative ending card say I can chose to. He has a nightshroud card and therefore can evade during the night.
What takes priority? Can I attack him because the rules on the alternative ending card say I can? Or can he evade me because his nightshroud says he can?
Please help as this would really assist in settling a heated dispute.
Tom and Co.

Bicycles are great things to ride, but awkward things to carry.
I live in a walk-up, and every so often run into my female neighbor hoisting her bicycle up to her shoulder to schlep it up the stairs. If I run into her at the bottom, I'll offer to carry it up for her; if I run into her mid-staircase I won't, because we both know it's too awkward to transfer from one person to another in that position. That's when we both stop and look at the camera, infomercial style, and simultaneously say "There has to be a better way!"
That better way is Walnut Studiolo's Bicycle Frame Handle, a simple leather strap that lets you carry your ride safely, easily, and ergonomically.
It's up on Kickstarter and has more than quadrupled its measly $3,500 goal. Buy-in starts at $30, but you'd better hurry—there's just one day left.

ASUO presidential candidate Thomas Tullis was released from the Lane County jail on Sunday at 3:45 p.m. Tullis was arrested earlier in the day inside the University of Oregon's Riley residence hall for two counts of violating the communications law, ORS 165.540.
"Usually I don't plan on getting arrested before breakfast. I like to have breakfast first," Tullis said. "I'm alright now and certainly not planning on going back to jail, ever."
Tullis was unsure exactly why he was booked. According to him, the law enforcement officials with whom he spoke had a vague understanding of how he had broken the law.
"I really hope that the DA doesn't file this case because it's a little absurd," Tullis said. "Nobody in there knew. The sheriff didn't even know what the ORS statute was. I was the first one who ever came in for that."
Despite the arrest, Tullis plans to continue his campaign for the ASUO presidency.
"I am 100 percent running for president," he said.
