Total Drama: Pahkitew Island Opinion Article
Season 6 cast
Who do you think will be the new jerk, antagonist, good guy/girl? Or what kind of stereotypes they will try out? With so many possibilities, we really don't know what the new cast will do. Thoughts anyone? It could be a prediction that ends up turning out like the producers' idea about them or the opposite of what they have in mind for them.
My personal prediction- #1 - The Shy girl. Could end up being similar to Dawn or may be the new Gwen #2- The Cowgirl/boy. Basically a Bridgette/ Geoff combo. Could be their love child (JK) #3 The Charmer (similar to Alejandro and Justin) or simply a jerk like Duncan and Scott. #4 The DJ?/ or maybe a medieval theme for this guy #5 The Stuck-up(?) Princess similar to Courtney or Dakota. #6 Have no clue. The Crazy Rocker Chick/Dude? #7 The New Cody... Nothing much to say about him #8 The Skater Dude. Probably a combo between Geoff, Trent and Duncan's personalities. #9 The Scientist(?) Could be a Beth and Harold combo with a touch of Courtney. #10 The Nerdy Owen. I think he may be Asian (not trying to be racist!) because of his haircut. He could be a smart version of Owen #11 The Jerkish Jock. I could see him being similar to Lightning due to the guy's shoulders (indicating he's very muscular) but may be a jerk like Duncan and Scott. #12 The Devilish Twin. This one I predict will be the bad twin( due to the color nature red being seen as bad, as white is seen as good) and she will most likely be the antagonist this season. #13 The Angelic Twin. This one will obviously be the good twin, who may end up being hated for the actions of her twin sister will cause throughout the season. #14. The Mysterious One. Honestly no clue... I guess that's what makes her/him mysterious since her/his silhouette is almost impossible to identify her/him. Well that's MY prediction which may or may not end up being true when they're revealed, but it was worth a shot. :p |

Florida Mental Illness Programs Leave Most Patients Untreated, House Panel Hears
Florida's system for the mentally ill is an underfunded shambles that leaves most people untreated and settles for locking up many of the rest.
Officials and experts told a House committee in Tallahassee on Thursday that system funding levels, in real terms, are below what they were in the 1980s and that the crisis is "deepening."
The House Healthy Families Committee took the disquieting testimony against the background of the Newtown school shootings and the attention it placed on the country's limited ability to notice and treat mentally unbalanced people before they hurt themselves or others.
During the committee hearing, reported by the Palm Beach Post's Dara Kam, members were told that Florida's mental health funding per capita ranks 49th in the country and that too much of that limited money is spent on hospitalization.
"We're acute crisis now. It's urgent care. And people don't get better in a system like that," Community Mental Health President Bob Sharpe, a former state Medicaid director, said later.
Many of those with mental illnesses end up behind bars, first as youths and then as adults, further driving up costs to taxpayers and the community. One key to preventing violent behavior and chronic mental health problems is early screening, the panelists stressed.
Research shows that there are "seven years of warning before a child becomes a serious violent offender," Florida Department of Juvenile Justice Secretary
Wansley Walters said. "So there are signs and signals being sent out to a lot of people who could act as first responders," she said. "We feel like we are in a race to catch children before they are coming into the system."
There's $722 million in this year's state budget to treat more than 300,000 people with mental illnesses. Even so, the experts told the House committee, about two-thirds of Floridians who need treatment never get it. Committee members said later there needs to be more emphasis on preventive services and identifying children who need treatment.
But they did hear of a measure of hope on the horizon: Under the Affordable Care Act, much of the mental health expenses now borne by the state would be transferred to Medicaid, and that would free up the money for those now-underfunded services.
House Speaker Will Weatherford, R-Wesley Chapel, says the Newtown school massacre showed what can happen when mental health programs are insufficient.

DATE: June 12th, 2013
TO: Walt Wrede, City Manager
FROM: Mark Robl, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: FY 2014 Jail Contract Renewal
The Department of Corrections has offered to renew our existing jail contract for FY 2014 for $753,410. This is an increase of $116,192 from FY 2013. I am very happy with the increase and I recommend we obtain council permission to renew this contract.
Over the past 18 months the chiefs of Alaska's Community Jails have continued meeting with DOC officials to discuss our jail contracts. Last year we began doing quarterly budget and cost reporting to DOC and submitted actual budget projections to them in October. The main result is the contract increase we have been presented. Another change is that we are now going to a five year contract term. There are also some changes to the contract language, most are related to the five year term. We currently comply with all of them.
This new contract includes annual CPI increases and geographical differential increases. It also provides us the ability to submit annual budgets that request additional increases. I believe we will have continued success at obtaining increases in this contract with suitable justification and ongoing cost documentation and reporting.
Fiscal note: Revenue, $753,410 to 100.030.4503

MS pills show promise and risk, studies say
Tests of the first two oral drugs developed for treating multiple sclerosis show that both cut the frequency of relapses and may slow progression of the disease, but with side effects that could pose a tough decision for patients.
AP Medical Writer
Tests of the first two oral drugs developed for treating multiple sclerosis show that both cut the frequency of relapses and may slow progression of the disease, but with side effects that could pose a tough decision for patients.
Two experts not involved in the studies said the drugs appear effective but with potentially dangerous side effects. It's too soon to know if the pills will be approved by the government or widely adopted by physicians, they said.
About 2.5 million people around the world have multiple sclerosis, a neurological disease that can cause muscle tremors, paralysis and problems with speech, memory and concentration. The studies involve the most common form of the disease, in which people are well for a while and then suffer periodic relapses.
Current treatments can reduce the duration and severity of symptoms but require daily or regular shots or infusions.
The new studies tested two types of pills. Cladribine, made by Merck Serono, is already sold to treat a rare blood cancer. For MS, it would be taken eight to 10 days a year. Fingolimod is a daily MS pill being developed by Novartis.
The research found that patients on the pills were about half as likely to suffer relapses of symptoms as those who took dummy pills or a commonly prescribed shot for MS.
But they also found both drugs significantly lowered immune defenses that allowed latent herpes viruses to rage in some patients - in one study, two people died of unchecked herpes infections.
The side effects detailed in the new studies are giving some physicians pause.
"There is a price tag attached" to the new medications, said Dr. Silva Markovic-Plese, an MS researcher at the University of North Carolina.
The studies were being published in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine.
There is no cure for MS, but steroids can reduce the duration and severity of symptoms in the short term, and seven treatments on the market have had success in reducing recurrence of symptoms.
All involve daily or regular injections. So a pill is appealing: Even healthy people can have trouble giving themselves shots, so it can be a nightmare for patients with faltering coordination and concentration.
"Right now I have to think very hard when I make coffee," said Ivana Vuletic, a 49-year-old Chapel Hill, N.C. woman with MS. "I would be greatly relieved if I didn't have to prick myself or be pricked" with needles, she said.
Still, she said she wouldn't take the new pills if their side effects were too dangerous.
Vuletic is on her third MS drug in about four years, and her illness has gotten worse. The MS injections have led to pocked skin and other problems so she is leery of new treatments' side effects.
The new studies reveal the trade-offs:
-A two-year study gave 1,300 MS patients cladribine or dummy pills. Patients on the drug were only half as likely to suffer relapse as those on placebo, and were 30 percent less likely to have worsening disability. However, 20 percent to 30 percent of the cladribine patients developed low counts of infection-fighting white blood cells, compared to just 2 percent of the others. And 20 cladribine patients suffered herpes infections versus none in the dummy pill group.
-A two-year study gave about 1,000 patients fingolimod or dummy pills. Only 17 percent of fingolimod patients had worsening disabilities from MS after three months, compared to 24 percent in those on placebo. Herpes infections were about the same in the pill and placebo groups, but respiratory infections like bronchitis and pneumonia were nearly twice as common in the fingolimod patients.
-A one-year study of 1,200 patients tested fingolimod against shots of Avonex, a form of interferon. Those taking the pills had less brain shrinkage - a measure of progression of the disease. About 20 percent of patients on the pill had relapses versus 30 percent on the dummy pills.
In that study, 9 percent of those on fingolimod had serious side effects, compared to 6 percent of those on Avonex. Two people on fingolimod died of herpes infections; six had eye swelling and eight had skin cancers.
All three studies were funded by Novartis or Merck Serono, the pill manufacturers.
Doctors are likely to turn first to current options until the pills' side effects are better understood, said Dr. Neil Lava, the director of Emory University's multiple sclerosis clinic.
Physicians are mindful of what happened with Tysabri, an MS drug that was approved in November 2004 and pulled from the market the next year after cases of a rare but lethal brain inflammation in some patients. It was reintroduced in 2006, but doctors are still monitoring for side effects, Lava said.

Friday, April 28, 2006 - Page updated at 09:02 AM Old bones are telling new talesSeattle Times staff reporter ELLENSBURG — Behind two locked doors at Central Washington University, what might be called Son of Kennewick Man sits inside a cardboard box. The faceless skull dates back 9,000 years — just 400 years younger than the superstar skeleton unearthed from the banks of the Columbia River. While Kennewick Man ignited a legal battle over the control of ancient bones, the skull at CWU has barely raised a ripple. "It just misses the mark in terms of people's interest," said CWU anthropology professor Steven Hackenberger. Nicknamed "Stickman" for the mythical beings some tribes believe once inhabited the Columbia plateau, the skull ranks among the continent's most-ancient human remains. About 40 sets of these remains from the distant past dot the map, mostly concentrated in the western United States. Some, like Stickman, have been largely overlooked or are the subject of custody battles with tribes who view the remains as ancestors. But in at least two cases, scientists and tribes have cooperated to learn from the oldest Americans. These success stories haven't hogged headlines like Kennewick Man. But they are, in some ways, proving more influential in reshaping ideas about the peopling of the continent. "In the case of Kennewick Man, I think its significance has been somewhat overblown because of the conflict and controversy," University of Oregon archaeologist Jon Erlandson said. "These other finds are equally important." Remains yield secrets Erlandson works on islands off the California coast, where he found stone-cutting tools up to 11,500 years old. The only way early people could have reached the islands is by boat.
Three bones were discovered in 1959 on Southern California's Santa Rosa Island. It wasn't until four decades later that radiocarbon analysis showed they were 13,000 years old. A set of ancient bones, found on an Alaska island, has yielded some of the strongest evidence yet that people who originated in Asia could have sailed or paddled to North America, then migrated south down the coast. A human jawbone and other fragments were discovered in 1996 in On Your Knees Cave, at the tip of Prince of Wales Island, off Ketchikan. Scientists speculate the remains, which date back 10,300 years, might have been dragged into the grotto by bears or other predators. Kennewick Man was discovered the same summer in Eastern Washington. Detailed studies on the 9,400-year-old skeleton began only last year, after nine years of legal battles with tribes who claimed "the Ancient One" as a cherished forebear. In Alaska, there was no such delay — and no antagonism. Local Tlingit and Haida tribes were notified immediately of the discovery, said University of Colorado anthropologist James Dixon, who works with the remains. Rather than objecting to scientific study, the tribes embraced it. "The way we interpreted this find was that an ancestor was offering himself to us to give us knowledge," said Tlingit tribal member Rosita Worl, a Harvard-trained anthropologist and president of the Sealaska Heritage Institute. Several tribal members worked on the excavation, and the community has been eagerly following the results. Isotopic analysis of the bones showed the man ate mainly seafood, even though the cave is deep in the island interior. And tools made of volcanic glass and quartz crystals from the mainland and nearby islands show people were using boats to get around the area, Dixon said. That doesn't prove the first Americans arrived from Asia via water, but it hints at a people with deep maritime roots. Even more exciting were DNA results from the remains. Brian Kemp, a doctoral student at the University of California, Davis, succeeded where others had failed by extracting genetic material from a tooth. His first results were so "weird" he repeated the work several times. Kemp compared the material to a database containing DNA sequences from more than 3,500 modern and prehistoric Native Americans. He found matches in several distinct locations, mostly along the Pacific coastline from California to Mexico, Ecuador and Chile. "My gut feeling is that this is a signature of a coastal expansion of people," Kemp said — but it's not yet definitive proof. DNA matches in Illinois show that at least some of the caveman's ancestors traveled overland, as well. It's also still unclear where the caveman's ancestors originated. His DNA sequence is of a type generally found in Asia, but the only exact match was a member of the Han ethnic group in eastern China. That doesn't mean Native Americans came from China, Kemp cautioned. It will take more detailed analysis of genetic material from across Asia to pin down the Alaskan caveman's roots. DNA is hard to come by While DNA may be the most powerful tool in the quest to understand how people settled the New World, it's limited by scarcity. Only three North American skeletons over 9,000 years old have yielded usable DNA, Kemp said. One of the most promising candidates may never be sampled. The Fallon Paiute-Shoshone tribe of Nevada is suing to claim and rebury Spirit Cave Man, whose desiccated remains were discovered in 1940, wrapped in a woven reed mat. Not only does the 10,700-year-old mummy still retain some hair, skin and organs, but it also was buried with a wealth of artifacts, including a blanket crafted from strips of fur. The remains have been studied extensively in the more than 60 years they have been kept at the Nevada State Museum, but DNA was never extracted, said Marc Slonim, a Seattle-based attorney for the tribe. That makes the legal case different from Kennewick Man, where scientists argued against reburial because they hadn't had a chance to study the skeleton in depth. With Kennewick Man, the court ruled against local tribes, saying the bones were too old to establish kinship. Now, scientists hope to gain permission for DNA testing from the Corps of Engineers, which controls access to Kennewick Man. An earlier attempt to extract DNA from a bone failed, but the teeth may prove more fruitful. Does skull shape matter? Even without DNA, some scientists argue that ancient skeletons do hold clues to the origins of the first Americans. Doug Owsley, of the Smithsonian Institution, and others say very old skulls — including Kennewick and Stickman — have a longer, narrower braincase than the skulls of modern and pre-contact Native Americans. That leads them to suggest multiple waves of migrants, possibly from different parts of Asia, may have populated the continent. Some of those lines died out while others gave rise to modern Native Americans, the theory goes. But the value of skull measurements is controversial. Diet and activity — such as throwing a spear repeatedly — can affect bone size and shape. Seattle-area anthropologist Jim Chatters ignited much of the controversy over Kennewick Man when he said the skull looked more "Caucasoid" than Native American. The first scientist to examine the skeleton, Chatters has been pondering the role of environmental factors in skull shape ever since. "It's something that's been bothering me for a long time," he said. At a recent archaeological conference in Seattle, Chatters said patterns of tooth wear suggest ancient Americans might have processed sinew or other fibers by pulling the strings through their teeth. That would have given them very powerful jaw muscles, which attach to the skull and may partially explain the long heads of Kennewick man and his brethren. "If you put that degree of stress on the skull, is it potentially changing the shape of the skull?" Chatters asked. Chatters was also the first to suspect the great age of the Stickman skull, which he saw in the CWU collection while seeking a colleague's opinion on the Kennewick Man bones. No one at the college could remember where the skull had come from, and there were no records. So Chatters had the bones dated and used bits of evidence such as pollen grains and volcanic ash to narrow down its origins to an area north of Kennewick. He's detailing his findings in a scientific paper. When it's published, he said, perhaps the little-known skull in Ellensburg will enjoy its moment in the scientific spotlight.

Hey Folks,
I recently picked up a used travel trailer - 16ft with a rated dry weight of about 2,700 lb. The previous owner added an A/C and a mod to the rear bumper for carrying bikes/wood, so dry weight is probably closer to 3,000 if I'm conservative.
I live up a fairy steep road, I'm guessing around a 30 degree slope or so. The steepest section is short, maybe 30-40 yards and I'm wondering if I should drop the truck into low gear "L", or just leave it in drive (OD off of course) to negotiate this hill.
My rig: '99 Xtra Cab 4x4 3.4L V6. I've already added a tranny cooler and brake controller and upgraded the entire suspension last year, but am fairly new to towing.
Should I have any concerns pulling this trailer up a short steep slope?

A curfew-like situation prevailed in Kashmir today as separatists enforced a shutdown while authorities imposed curfew in Sopore town and prohibitory orders in rest of the valley to maintain law and order.
Normalcy prevailed in the valley yesterday after 21 days of strike but the relief was short-lived as protestors again clashed with police.
Authorities brought Sopore town under curfew while prohibitory orders have been imposed in 12 police station areas in Srinagar as a precautionary measure, including Nowhatta, Khanyar, Rainawari, Safakadal, Soura, Batmaloo, Maisuma, Kralkhud and Sonawar, police said.
Heavy deployment has been made in the rest of the valley including Baramulla, 55 km from here, which witnessed violent clashes in the wake of a controversy over a teenager's death.
Senior Superintendent of Police, Baramulla, Sheikh Mehmood maintained that the youth drowned in the river and denied allegations that he was chased by Special Operations Group personnel and pushed into the river.
The body of the youth, Faizan Rafiq Buhroo, has not been fished out from the river so far.
Deputy Commissioner of Baramulla Bashir Ahmad Bhat said the first priority is to recover the body of the youth. "The circumstances of his drowning are not clear. We have reports that he drowned," he said.
As the news about the drowning of youth spread, people took to streets and fought pitched battles with policemen in several areas of the town.
Hardline faction of Hurriyat Conference headed by jailed leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani had called for the shutdown in the Kashmir valley to protest killing of several youths in the past one month.
The situation in the valley became tense on June 11 when a teenager was killed after he was allegedly hit by a teargas shell at Gani Stadium near Rajourikadal.
The situation worsened on June 26 and the authorities clamped curfew and promulgated prohibitory orders to foil a march, called by the separatists, to Sopore.
As the situation deteriorated further in the wake of killing of three persons in Batmaloo area in Srinagar, army was deployed. On Friday, authorities imposed curfew in several towns to thwart a separatist march to Batmaloo.
Militant killed in gun battle
A militant was killed in a gun battle between terrorists and security forces in Kishtwar district of Jammu and Kashmir early today.
Conducting searches acting on specific information, troops of Rastriya Rifles and Special Task Force (STF) launched a "surgical operation" in Patnazi area of Bonjawa belt in Kishtwar district, a senior army officer told PTI.
An encounter broke out between the militants and the security forces during the operation in which one militant was killed, the officer said adding, his identity is yet to be ascertained.
One AK rifle, grenades and ammunition were seized from the spot of the encounter.
Two Lashker-e-Toiba operatives, including 'area commander' Mohmmad Shafi Pathan, active in militancy for the last 20 years, were arrested from Patnazi during the search and cordon operation in Kishtwar for the past two days.

Panache Women's Ultimate Sports Bra
Very impressed with quality and price.
Better than $60 lululemon.yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Also enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere in the store
January 28, 2015
It's okay
So I can't do the back clip because it kills my neck and shoulders...in the bras defense my boobs are big...it's not soft, kind of stuff and itchy...the other problem is it makes my boobs look like torpedoes...this is a major fail in the bra business...glad it was significantly on sale or I would be extremely disappointed...
January 27, 2015
I absolutely love this bra! I've always had to double bra things because the 'normal' sports bra never quite did the job! The biggest thing was the horrible bounce, made me so self conscious because the girls are by no means tiny! This bra lifts them up, holds them in place and the bounce is virtually eliminated!
December 28, 2014
well made, great support, does not dig into my skin, this bra would have got 5 stars if my size was available in more colors then white blah
December 22, 2014
I wear a 32H in US sizing (would be a 32FF for Panache). I wear it for running and work and haven't had any problems. There is a little bit if gaping at the top of the cups, but I think its just not completely right for my breast shape.
My only complaint is that the straps aren't quite long enough for me to comfortably clip them together. It works fine without them clipped, but doesn't look great under a tank top.

Love this bra!
This is the best sports bra ever! It has an underwire for added support! Fantastic!
December 4, 2014
This is a good product.
I wear a 38DD and I've started to run, again. I was searching for a sports bras that had actual sizes (not small/med/lg). I read a review about sports bras for women with larger breasts and decided to try this one. It wasn't at the top of the list of suggestions, but it wasn't at the bottom.
It has pretty good control, in that I'm not "bouncing" all over the place. It doesn't separate like I thought it would, but overall, I think it's a good product.
November 8, 2014
This bra provides amazing sport snd comfort! And it looks great on! I often wear it when I'm not working out!!

Best True High Impact Sports Bra I've Used So Far!!
Great support- especially with racer back option. Adjusts easily and actually holds everything up and fitted nicely...I had tried a highly recommended sports bra with Velcro and it definitely did not work compared to the Panache! Love it!
November 4, 2014
Very comfortable
I got the 38dd and it is extremely flattering and comfortable. Wish it came in different colors. I wear it as my regular bra for maximum support.

Just received my first J Herbin refillable rollerball and am wishing I had
ordered 2 as they are now sold out. I LOVE this pen! The convenience and ease of
writing with a roller ball but able to use the beautiful, subtle fountain pen
inks that Herbin are famous for. Be aware that this pen is picky about what
paper types it likes to write on (seemed happier, smoother with 'rougher' paper
types), but when the paper and pen match it is writing heaven.

Verified Purchase
Saw these come back in stock the other day and ordered two right away. They were
sold out within a day! Buy one (or some) if you get the chance, they are so fun
and awesome. I do wish J. Herbin would make one of these available with a finer
tip, but it is still great as is. The ink flows very well, too fast if you let
the tip rest on the paper (tends to bleed fast on some paper), but it's pretty
easy to get used to.
Anyway, get this pen, you'll be happy. 8 people found this helpful

Verified Purchase
I bought two of these pens after reading the reviews here, and it is a complete
disappointment. The nib is very scratchy and thin, and when I write fast the ink
doesn't even reach the paper. I took out the cartridge and put it in a Kaweco
Roller (same type of pen, different brand) and it's working beautifully (nice
smooth line, not to wet, not scratchy at all). I wanted to check that the ink
wasn't the problem. I love the idea of refillable roller pens, but the Herbin
pen didn't work for me.

These are a really nice way to have the beautiful colors of the J Herbin inks
around in a handy little pocket pen. I ended up buying two so I could keep two
different colors "on tap". I've only used the J Herbin cartridges but they work
wonderfully, nice and bright with a very smooth line.

I bought one for note taking and it worked great for a couple of weeks. I left
it in a drawer for a couple of days and the tip clogged. The ink was still
liquid in the cartridge (J. Herbin ink), but I think that the internal wick
dried and clogged. I tried soaking it for a couple of days, eventually even
trying a weak ammonia solution and an ultrasonic cleaner, but I couldn't revive

Verified Purchase
I was wary about buying this due to its size, as I have fairly large hands. I'm
happy to report this isn't an issue. In fact, I think it would be spoiled if it
were any larger.
Posted, it is -perhaps not coincidentally- the exact same length as a retractable Jetstream. Capped, it is about a centimeter longer than a Pilot Petit. It's a smooth writer too. I put Pelikan Brilliant Black through and it glided page after page. No skips, no blobbing, no scratching. A note for those planning to eyedropper (I know I was): There are three teeny tiny holes at the butt end of the barrel. You'd probably need a microscope to get a sealant in there without making a mess. The feed nipple is the right width for an international standard size converter, but the barrel isn't even close to long enough. This is a great FP alternative for everyday use. It's comfortable, light, portable, and inexpensive. I just wish it could be ED'd more easily. 2 people found this helpful

Adore this pen. Back to order more and a few of the converters. Fun and
inexpensive and the best of this type I have found. So happy they are in stock.
I have not found a paper that it did not do well with so far and I have used
inexpensive to expensive ink without problems. Hope it takes to noodlers ink.

Verified Purchase
This pen is really good. It writes smoothly. I use it with a blue ink. You can
use a mini converter to use bottled ink. When you want to use another color ink,
you can put water in a mini converter so you can put water in and to suck it out
of the pen. I tried this and it works great to clean the pen. The only thing is
that it will be wet and you have to wait about a couple of days for it to dry.

I just received my J. Herbin Rollerball Pen today, even a day earlier than
expected. Installed the ink cartridge and did an initial test. It writes very
smooth for a rollerball pen, most rollerballs are somewhat scratchy due to
design but this one seems to be very smooth, not quite as smooth as a ballpoint,
but not scratchy enough to tell its only a $9 pen. Great quality and it
refillable not many rollerball pens are refillable so this is a nice plus. I'll
definitely be buying different ink colors soon.

NEW HAVEN — The Vermont Public Service Board (PSB) last week removed a roadblock for development of a solar energy farm off Route 7 in New Haven.
VERGENNES — The Vergennes Planning Commission has finished much of the complex task of rewriting city zoning to conform with the 2009 city plan, a job planners intend to complete in time to hold formal public hearings in November or December.
ADDISON COUNTY — Selectboards in Lincoln, Monkton, New Haven and Starksboro have set 2011-2012 property tax rates that range from a 0.17-cent decrease in Starksboro to a 10.18-cent increase in New Haven.
These property tax rates stem from spending levels previously agreed on by residents at Town Meeting Day for municipal and school services for the current July to June fiscal year.
LEICESTER — It's been a long process, but Leicester town planners are hoping that the end is in sight for the adoption of a new Leicester Town Plan.
The planning commission is inviting all year-round and summer residents of the town to an open house at the Leicester Town Office on Wednesday, Aug. 24 from 7 to 8:30 p.m., where the current draft of the plan will be on display.
BRANDON — After a stellar run of providing classic, well-built construction and sage advice in the Brandon area, a well-known local builder has finally hung up his hard hat.
Jack McKernon, founder of The McKernon Group Inc., has retired from his long time position as owner/CEO of the Brandon-based business. Kevin Birchmore, president of the company and McKernon's business partner for the last 25 years, has acquired the ownership position of the company and has taken on a partner, Justus Cameron, who is the newly appointed vice president.
ST. ALBANS/NEW HAVEN — Farmers had plenty of suggestions for Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., as he solicited feedback about a proposed federal dairy reform bill in St. Albans last Wednesday and at Addison County Fair and Field Days in New Haven on Friday.
The bill in question is a draft proposal by Minnesota Rep. Colin Peterson. The plan would replace the Milk Income Loss Contract (MILC) and the Dairy Product Price Supports programs and change the federal milk order system that sets the wholesale price conventional milk producers get for their product.
VERMONT — Gardeners beware: Late blight, which last swept tomato and potato plants in the state in 2009, has been confirmed in Vermont this year.
The University of Vermont Extension on Aug. 3 announced a case of the late blight on tomato plants in a home garden in Jericho.
Vern Grubinger of the UVM Extension said he's spoken with a couple more people in that area who are sending their plants in for testing, but that there have been no other confirmed cases in the state.

So, I once again submit myself to the collective wisdom of the Beer Forum! You (the group) have been invaluable in troubleshooting a number of issues I have had around fermentation and carbonation, now I return to request your assistance in understanding why the OG on my final product differs from the OG forecasted in my recipe generator. I had one recent brew that we used a sparge calculator on, built in the grain time and strike temperatures, boiled for the prescribed time and ended up with exactly the desired 5 gal however my forecasted OG was 1.068 and it infact was 1.062! Any ideas why this occurs? Am I burning off to many sugars in the boil? Do I need a richer grain bill? Am I completely off the mark? Any advice is, as always, greatly appreciated! ~Dan
1.068 estimate OG is higher than 1.062 actual so your efficiency of mash was off a bit. Did you do a pre-boil gravity reading? Very useful tool when doing all grain so you can then see your actual mash efficiency and make adjustments in the boil time and vigor if necessary. I would also suggest you better evaluate your crush and mash method to ensure you are getting the most out of the grain. IMO if you are having the LHBS crush your grains for you it is usually found to be inadequate.
You are only off by 9%. Not a biggie. 9% won't change the final beer very much at all. You likely just didn't get the same efficiency on your system that your recipe assumed. Next time, you could correct this by adding a bit more grain across the board, slightly finer crush, like the last poster said, or even just boil for 15-20 more minutes. 9% isn't a biggie, but you really should be shooting for the OG, NOT for the certain volume. You would have been right on your target OG for this batch if you had about 4.7-4.8 gallons as your final volume. Oh, and sugars don't "burn off" during the boil. Only water, in the form of steam. Gravity (OG) is a measurement of liquid density, and OG goes UP the more sugars are dissolved in your water, so boiling longer reduces water volume without reducing sugar content, hence more density, hence higher gravity.

Sundance Balloons' vibrant hot-air balloons float adventurous passengers over scenic landscapes. Each one-hour journey commences as sojourners greet their flight crew at a pre-determined location, receive a briefing on what to expect during the excursion, and observe their balloon as it swells to more than 10 stories in height.
The woven gondolas glide 1,000 feet above the ground but can sometimes gently skim treetops or cornfields when wandering over the countryside. Since balloons drift with prevailing winds, there is no wind chill and travellers feel only a slight sensation of movement. As is tradition for ballooning, explorers of the appropriate age end their flight with a champagne toast to tranquility, beauty, and neighbourhoods that appear as giant smiley faces only visible from the air.
At Rainbow Cinemas & Magic Lantern Theatres, darkened auditoriums with flickering screens draw audiences into magical worlds where fish can talk, motorcycles leap canyons, and love comes even for those who eat crackers in bed. The auditoriums show recent blockbusters at 16 multiplex theatres that spread across Canada, each of which retains its own unique personality and honours any historic roots. In Edmonton, the Princess Theatre?s original 1915 auditorium, complete with balcony, golden drapes, and red walls, accommodates moviegoers with babies or pet hyenas inside a soundproof cry room. In Saskatchewan, the circa-1930 Roxy Theatre preserves the ambience of a Spanish courtyard. As guests find their auditorium at the Rainbow Cinemas Ontario locations, they can admire giant murals by local artist Fred Harrison.
The course at Grovedale Golf and Country Club allows beginners and shorter-hitting amateurs the satisfaction of completing a full par 72 course while withholding the stress associated with extremely long holes and confidence-shattering obstacles. The course extends to 5,894 yards from the men's tees, consisting entirely of manageable par 3s and par 5s and sub-400-yard par 4s, including the 295-yard par 4 18th that lets golfers leave the course with their heads held high. Even with all the opportunities for good scores, teachable moments abound. Poplar and spruce trees and prairie grasses line the fairways, threatening birdie streaks during lapses in concentration or judgement.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 5,894 yards from the back tees * Two sets of tees per hole * View the scorecard
As half of "Boot Scootin' Boogie" duo Brooks & Dunn, Ronnie Dunn has played everywhere from the arena to the rodeo, beer joints to casinos. His Texas twang and electric guitar chronicle 20 years of wide-ranging exploits on his self-titled debut solo album. After he and Kix Brooks played their last show together in 2010, Dunn set to work as the new album's sole producer and main songwriter. "This time around, I baked it," he said. "I baked it and cooked it, and cooked it again." His signature rowdy honky-tonk kicks through in the single "Let the Cowboy Rock," and the poignant ballad of forgiveness, "Bleed Red," urges listeners to "turn the anger into water / let it slip through our hands."

Ascendas India Trust reports drop in quarterly payout on rupee weakness
Published on Jan 23, 2014 9:16 PM
Ascendas India Trust (a-iTrust), which owns business space in India, has reported an 8 per cent drop in income available for distribution to $11.2 million for the third quarter.
Distribution per unit fell by 9 per cent to 1.1 cents for the three months to Dec 31.
Total property income also dropped by 9 per cent to $29 million while net property income eased by 1 per cent to $18.4 million.
These falls were mainly due to the sharp depreciation of the Indian rupee against the Singapore dollar.

.- Facing a proposed population control program, Catholic bishops in the Philippines are defending the Catholic teaching on birth control. The Philippine parliament is considering a proposal to spend $22 million to buy condoms and birth control pills to stem the country's growing population.
Archbishop Angel Lagdameo, president of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines, explained the Church's teaching on contraceptives: "they destroy the fruitfulness of human reproductive capacities given by the Creator and hence are morally wrong."
He said the money is "better spent on education and poverty alleviation projects."
The archbishop noted that the Church is not against population control if the sanctity of human life is protected. He endorsed Natural Family Planning as one such population control method. He further recommended that government funding instead be directed towards anti-poverty, anti-hunger, and educational projects.
Archbishop Paciano Aniceto blamed misgovernance and corruption for poverty, rather than overpopulation. "It is an old exploded myth that the population is the culprit of our poverty," he said. Real development, he said, should proceed from "serious economic management and proper economic planning of our country."
