Not political, but Mike Heller. His commentary on his sports talk show often sounds like an angry donkey braying for dinner rather than any sort of discussion.
As a former state worker, the Tommy Thompson era was a fascinating time to be in state government. Whether you like him or not, feel he was ethical or not, the man knew how to get things done. And he took better care of state employees than many Democratic governors, by improving fringe benefits and foisting the costs on....people today! He was a master at spending and pushing the consequences on down the road. I'm not saying he should teach, but he should certainly be studied.

Dyer's Burgers
The Burger: Grease is the word at Dyer's Burger, a Memphis institution since 1912. The pounded-thin, all-beef patties at this café are dunked in a cast-iron skillet of boiling hot vegetable oil. The meat turns crunchy as the fry cook flips it onto a squishy Wonder Bread bun. Only mustard, pickles, and onions accompany. Many die-hards favor the "triple triple" combo: three patties stacked between molten slices of processed American cheese.
Best Sides: Add more vitamin "G" to your diet with onion rings, chili cheese fries, and a deep-fried Twinkie.
Congratulations to Mei Lin, winner of Top Chef Season 12.

Children's Health Insurance:
States' SCHIP Enrollment and Spending Experiences and Considerations for Reauthorization
GAO-07-558T: Published: Mar 1, 2007. Publicly Released: Mar 1, 2007.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
In August 1997, Congress created the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) with the goal of significantly reducing the number of low-income uninsured children, especially those who lived in families with incomes exceeding Medicaid eligibility requirements. Unlike Medicaid, SCHIP is not an entitlement to services for beneficiaries but a capped allotment to states. Congress provided a fixed amount--approximately $40 billion from fiscal years 1998 through 2007--to states with approved SCHIP plans. Funds are allocated to states annually. Subject to certain exceptions, states have 3 years to use each year's allocation, after which unspent funds may be redistributed to states that have already spent all of that year's allocation. GAO's testimony addresses trends in SCHIP enrollment and the current composition of SCHIP programs across the states, states' spending experiences under SCHIP, and considerations GAO has identified for SCHIP reauthorization. GAO's testimony is based on its prior work, particularly testimony before the Senate Finance Committee on February 1, 2007 (see GAO-07-447T). GAO updated this work with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' (CMS) January 2007 approval of Tennessee's SCHIP program.
SCHIP enrollment increased rapidly during the program's early years but has stabilized over the past several years. As of fiscal year 2005, the latest year for which data are available, SCHIP covered approximately 6 million enrollees, including about 639,000 adults, with about 4 million enrollees in June of that year. Many states adopted innovative outreach strategies and simplified and streamlined their enrollment processes in order to reach as many eligible children as possible. States' SCHIP programs reflect the flexibility federal law allows in structuring approaches to providing health care coverage. As of July 2006, states had opted for the following from among their choices of program structures allowed: a separate child health program (18 states), an expansion of a state's Medicaid program (11), or a combination of the two (21). In addition, 41 states opted to cover children in families with incomes at 200 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL) or higher, with 7 of these states covering children in families with incomes at 300 percent of FPL or higher. Thirty-nine states required families to contribute to the cost of their children's care in SCHIP programs through a cost-sharing requirement, such as a premium or copayment; 11 states charged no cost-sharing. As of February 2007, GAO identified 14 states that had waivers in place to cover adults in their programs; these included parents and caretaker relatives of eligible Medicaid and SCHIP children, pregnant women, and childless adults. SCHIP spending was initially low, but now threatens to exceed available funding. Since 1998, some states have consistently spent more than their allotments, while others spent consistently less. States that earlier overspent their annual allotments over the 3-year period of availability could rely on other states' unspent SCHIP funds, a portion of which were redistributed to cover other states' excess expenditures. By fiscal year 2002, however, states' aggregate annual spending began to exceed annual allotments. As spending has grown, the pool of funds available for redistribution has shrunk. As a result, 18 states were projected to have "shortfalls" of SCHIP funds--meaning they had exhausted all available funds--in at least one of the final 3 years of the program. To cover projected shortfalls faced by several states, Congress appropriated an additional $283 million for fiscal year 2006. SCHIP reauthorization occurs in the context of debate on broader national health care reform and competing budgetary priorities, highlighting the tension between the desire to provide affordable health insurance coverage to uninsured individuals, including low-income children, and the recognition of the growing strain of health care coverage on federal and state budgets. As Congress addresses reauthorization, issues to consider include (1) maintaining flexibility within the program without compromising the primary goal to cover children, (2) considering the program's financing strategy, including the financial sustainability of public commitments, and (3) assessing issues associated with equity, including better targeting SCHIP funds to achieve certain policy goals more consistently nationwide.

Why Give

AACC's Funding Sources
Anne Arundel Community College is a publicly funded institution, but as public funding becomes less reliable, the college must seek and secure other sources of revenue to develop and sustain programming that meets community needs.
AACC has three primary sources of income with each category providing approximately one-third of revenue: County, State and Tuition/Fees.When faced with declining state and county support-trends facing community colleges throughout the country-tuition and fees rise.This is not in the best interest of students, many of whom are juggling the responsibilities of family, employment and increased cost of living.
For this reason, AACC turns to private support to develop and sustain programs and to expand the pool of scholarship funds available to qualified students.
Impact on Students
Preparing students to succeed in an increasingly competitive and global economy is a top priority at Anne Arundel Community College. This undertaking starts by providing our students with the financial resources they need to succeed. With your help, the Anne Arundel Community College Foundation helps make higher education accessible and affordable for all motivated students.
Scholarships are where philanthropy can make the greatest difference to students at AACC. Student financial need has never been greater. Over the past 5 years:
Applicants for all types of financial aid grew by 117%
The average financial aid award grew by 43%
The number of applicants for scholarships from the AACC Foundation grew by 82%
Scholarships do more than help students. Higher education has the power to change society. When people have jobs that provide a livable wage, they and their families can lead productive and fulfilling lives. More than ever before, these jobs require higher education. Anne Arundel Community College meets this need by offering open access to training in programs that will prepare citizens for well-paying, rewarding careers.
The average income at the career midpoint of someone with an associate's degree in Anne Arundel County is $56,200--35% more than someone with a high school diploma.
AACC students with higher earnings expand the MD tax base by about $121.8 million each year.
Maryland will see avoided social costs amounting to $4 million per year due to AACC students, including savings associated with improved health, reduced crime and reduced welfare and unemployment.
Impact on Programs
To maintain its position of excellence in workforce training, AACC must pursue initiatives and forward-looking programs in emerging fields. With your help, the college will be on the forefront of workforce training for the jobs available today and in the future.
The impact of private donations to support the programslike cyber security, engineering and allied health are many. Students are:
Training for careers in growing fields with employment opportunities
Learning tools and equipment that are being used by today's employers
Being taught by professionals who understand the needs of today's employers
Just like scholarships, which provide a direct benefit to students, donations to develop and sustain programs provide a meaningful benefit to students who are training or retraining for a new career.

Rate This High School Run: James Wilder Jr Runs Over 3 Dudes
Rivals -Wilder is the son of former NFL star running back James Wilder. But no, we can't recall Wilder – or any other NFL player – doing this. On the way to the end zone, Wilder knocks over three defenders simultaneously, as if they were bowling pins. He gets turned around, but that doesn't matter, he spins out of it and works his way down the field for the score. And let's be clear, this was a top-notch defense from as good a high school football state as there is. The play came last weekend in the Florida 5A state final against Manatee, the team that shut down the seemingly unstoppable and defending national champion St. Thomas Aquinas the week before.
Nice run. Looks like me in Pop Warner.

1. Event 1 2. Event 2 All events
G.A. Soleimani was born in 1946 in Amol. He has started his own business since he was 25. He is an entrepreneur by nature. He has founded many businesses so far. Read More History
Foresighted Diligence and Determination
An Interview with the Solico Founder
He is from Amol, in a few years he will be sixty. A life of creative hard work and efforts. He is interviewed in a situation of being back to work from months of recuperation of an automobile accident's injuries, nevertheless like before, active and energetic. He loves his work and believes in it. He talks about the country's industry: "This country needs production and industry; we have a number of Technical Universities but not enough industries or knowledge of its importance.
His words contain a lot of connotations. He talks about his failures and frustrations, about his private teachings and paying the worker's wages by using his earnings, about let-downs and disappointments and above all he talks about his undisturbed attitudes towards obstacles.
Soleimani is a prototype and exemplary Iranian business developers. He has innovations and new ideas in production followed by financial rewards and improved technologies. He has welcomed risks, dedicated efforts and persevered until he has accomplished success. Now that he has gained a little national expansion, he doesn't waste any time when it comes to observation and research. He looks here and there to know more about similar fields in countries with more advance technologies. He doesn't miss any exhibitions in related fields, reads management books, he is not a stranger to management advisers, and benefits from advantages of the management strategies. The range of the products that are manufactured under his control and management is so diverse and different; in such a way that sometimes we are concerned this diversity might become problematic. We interviewed Gholamali Soleimani in autumn of 84 in his office located in Ajarbayjan Avenue East.
Please introduce yourself: Gholamali Soleimani, date of birth 25/3/1325 – Amol. I spent my Elementary and Secondary school in Amol, and then moved to Tehran. I tried 2 years to enter the university; finally I got to the Melli University and majored in mathematics. From the second year in the university I started working, from that year on I paid my tuition myself, my father was upset about it and didn't talk to me for this reason. Starting the third year and forth year, I was the first student who stopped paying tuition to the university. In response to Professor Pouyan, "God bless his soul", who asked me: "Why don't pay your tuition" I answered: I have no money what should I do, and I am not prepared to work and pay my tuition, with all this oil money what difference does it make if I pay my tuition or not? He asked: What did you do last year; I said I got a bank loan. He asked: "Why don't do the same now? I answered: I don't find it appropriate, now should I stay or should I leave? He answered: Stay. Then I said, Professor the university pays 300 Tomans student's aids, is it possible if I could receive this money? He answered: I don't know if you're here to pay or to get paid? Nevertheless he approved for me to get that 300 tomans monthly.
I also worked during my compulsory military services, I used to teach once a week in the College and the rest of the week I taught private classes. This is the time that we established a company and tried to sell proforma invoices. We visited different embassies to get information and addresses, those days mostly proforma invoices for construction materials were in demand.
From 1350 to 1357 I started to work seriously, by then I had established 2 companies; the one I mentioned before and the other one was a company by the name of Marketing and Research with the collaboration of an American and an Indian, this company had some income to make up for the expenses of the other one and the rest was covered by bank loan. Making it short; after the revolution my partners both left Iran. The companies practically generated no income, therefore by teaching private classes; I covered my own expenses as well as my employees' salaries.
In 1356 I started my own business right in this place where we are now. This locaton then belonged to my sister. They were planning to rent it for 17 Tomans a month. I suggested to my sister that I would rent this place for 20 Tomans per month from her. They asked me: if I had any money and how I was going to pay the rent? I answered: "No I don't but I work and earn money and pay the rent."
Eventually, I rented this very place that you see from sister and started from nothing. I started the sausage and cold meat division with the Gillan Kalbas Co. This is the story: That time garlic powder was 28 tomans per kilo, but we had obtained proforma invoice from China for 7 tomans per kilo. We didn't have even 7000 Tomans to import one Ton into the country. Gillan Co. accepted to buy 5 Tons and we imported and delivered the goods to them. One day the director approached me with a job offer and he was very persistent, I said I had my own company, but he said you are an honest and persistent person, you called me about 2 and half years once or twice a week to sell garlic powder, for doing so and your follow ups you must come and work with me. I said I had my own business and my work, it didn't make any sense to leave it, and of course we were not doing that good in our business. So, we reached an agreement to work together here with equal shares. We decided to start the Gillan Co. and also I was assigned to be in charge of provision and procurement of the raw materials purchased internally or imported into the country. It was agreed I get paid a salary of 10000 Tomans a month, after a few months they decided not to be a part distribution system.
During the period of 2 months that I worked there, the production tripled. Before I started working, the daily production was 4 Tons, later it was increased to 12 Tons. Before we would bring one full van and we were suppose to sell it in a week. Now we would bring one truck every day and would sell it the same day. I encouraged the workers to stay overtime and work day and night shifts and would pay their wages myself. On the other hand I would profit from the distribution and would pay the workers 5 to 10 tomans, so that they would stay and worked long hours. Mikaelian had a partner who would say: It's either my place or this guy's place who works so hard, and for sure he is going to own the company soon. It's either his place or my place, you have to choose. Finally I had to clear the accounts and separated from them. After the death of Mikaelian, his wife approached me again, and asked me to help them in production, without revealing the fact to her partner I became a partner with 15% shares and started the job. I maintained the plant capacity at 12 Tons per day and because I was earning enough I didn't get the 10000 tomans salary either.
Those days they had a number of machineries that were not installed; Mrs. Mikaelian was not in agreement with her partner who didn't want these machineries installed. She asked my opinion; I said the factory doesn't have to be in Gillan we could take it to Amol. We obtained the permit and I spoke to one of my friends who had background experience in Pichak and Yekoyek companies and asked him to team up with us. I offered him a job with 25% increase over his current pay at Pichak.
When I got his approval, later his wife said she didn't want to live in Amol, she liked to live in Tehran. She worked in the Ministry of Industries; I told her if she could get a permit for a cold meat factory in Tehran, I would move and live there. She was originally from Shiraz and they recently had a new born and her mother had come to Tehran to take care of the baby. I went to their home for a visit, I noticed she had to go back to work and the baby needed care, anyhow the situation was not that good. I told her: "Why are you being so stubborn, you can go back to Shiraz and work in the Ministry of Industries while your mother would take care of your father and your baby, you can also obtain a permit for us, then we could move there and establish a cold meat factory in Shiraz." We had a representative over there; I called him up and asked him if he could rent a location for the factory. He said that he already had a site, so my partner and I visited the place. We agreed to give him some shares of the business in lieu of the rent. We moved the machineries from Gillan and my friend with 2 backgrounds in factory work and production became the production manager. Now the factory was ready but we didn't have any money to buy meat and start the machineries. So we initiated borrowing from anybody we knew to buy meat. I approached one of the people who were close to Mikaelian and worked in his factory, I told him:" you are an expert in cold meat production, I am asking you to come to Shiraz and teach us what you already know" and he accepted. This whole episode happened before the revolution.
At beginning of the revolution, one day early morning at 6 am I was going to go to the office, one of the floating distributors by the name of Shater Hossain met me on the street and greeted me. I asked him how he was doing, he hit himself on the head and said, I had nine children and my wife gave birth to a twin yesterday, now I have 11 children and you don't have any sausage and cold meat, now I don't know how to feed them. I told him not to worry; God is great, although, I was really upset for Shater Hossain. At the same time one of my customers that I had imported 2 hamburger maker devices called me and told me he didn't need the devises, and asked me to sell them as soon as I could and send him the money. It was 8 in the morning, and that day we had not received any sausages and cold meat from Gillian and meat was scarce. That afternoon I went and bought a meat grinding machine, and decided to start a hamburger making plant right in the office. I kept those 2 devices for hamburger making and talked to people who had experience in this field and asked them to teach me how to make hamburgers. The first day from six in the morning until 12 midnight with the help of 4 workers we made 197 hamburgers. Sausage and cold meat were scarce and people like Shater Hossain were too many. They would come to the front of the office and took the freshly made hamburgers from us therefore; we didn't need to take them to the cold store. That's how we started hamburgers right in this office and sausage and cold meat in Shiraz.
Tell us about your parents and your family: I was born and raised in a 100% religious family. My father was a lawyer. Then schools had only 4 classes. My mother also had that much school. My father had started from Maktabkhaneh (old school) and since the new schools did not exist in those days, after Maktabkhaneh he had moved to Tehran and had finished his studies there. He was a clergyman first and then became a lawyer.
In the birth order of the siblings which one are you? From my father's side the 10th childand from my mother's side the first born.
How many siblings do you have? All my brothers died young. Now I have 3 brothers and 3 sisters, who are all younger than me. One of my brothers is the Managing Director of Amol Meat factory and the other one is the Managing Director for Kalleh Dairy Co.
When you talk, it's obvious everything turns around one person, and that is Gholamali Soleimani. When did you feel that you cannot work with anybody else? I have always felt that I can work with others. But here people are not very much work oriented. All the people who started working with me, I forced them to become my partner. For example when I started the hamburger business I asked one of my friends to come and work with me, I offered him 50% increase over his previous salary and a share of the profit. He said: "if you wouldn't be able to pay me, then what?" Of course he was right, at the time in order to pay his salary every month, I taught private classes.
So this is the benefits of mathematics? No, it has 2 benefits, first it activates the brain cells and then one knows which path to take, of course I don't want to be condescending towards others.
I am still waiting to hear the answer to my previous question. From eight or nine grade I was always thinking to start a business. At that time, I used to tell my class mates, some of them still my present colleagues; we could buy a taxi cab with 2000 tomans and worked together in Amol. Actually then we could do this. Especially one of my class mates was well off and could raise this money. But all of them would laugh at me and said I was crazy.
Later in the university, I always thought that I had to work. Despite the fact that I was raised in a well to do family, I often thought about starting a business. My father didn't agree with me. He would always say, one should study and become a scholar. He was fascinated with education. But I didn't believe only in educations. I always said that you should live, and for living in addition to thoughts and wisdom, you need money. To get money you should work. Therefore I always thought about the kind work I should be doing. When I was a student I had an income of over 1000 Tomans per month. I would get 300 tomans from the university. Twice a week I worked in a school which brought me 300 tomans. About 600 or 700 tomans was my income from private classes. In short I was better off financially than any other student. Because I believed I had to make money to live a better life. Since then I always said that; the people I work with shouldn't necessarily be rich, I should somehow make them a partner in my business. I would suggest to them: "you become a partner, this is your salary and this is your share." So everyday they wouldn't come to me and tell me their salary was not enough. In reality the more the profit, the more their income would be. I brought everyone with affections; I assigned production to people who were experienced. Of course for choosing my partners I had logic. I knew all these people very well through relationships and negotiations. Based on the knowledge I had about each individual I would choose that person for a job and would become a partner. Of course, all these people before being a partner they were my advisors as well.
In fact, I knew the machineries and the market. I could see the demand and had the knowledge of the industries. Among 30 to 40 different industries I chose the meat business. The Marketing and Research Company helped me a lot. Although at the time the roads and constructions were the pick of business, I chose the food industries, because I had a vision for better future in this field, among the food industries I chose meat industry because it was more profitable.
At some point on the way, you formed a board of directors, how many of the members are your family? In the beginning when I established a company such as Solico, Dames or Tehran Company, I would choose the board from my partners. When I set up Amol, since my brother lived in Amol, the members consisted of 2 of my brothers a friend and me. In Boushehr the board consisted of 4 individuals all of them not family. In Kalleh because I was the main shareholder, the board members in addition to myself, were 2 of my brothers and a friend. But the decision maker in all of them is I, myself.
What is the job of the 4th member? Actually the plants are managed by 2 people. The 4th board member is in charge of the management of the company such as planning, marketing and sales. Purchases of machineries has always been my own responsibility and are finalized by myself, everyone else only executes my decisions.
Why? What is your philosophy that you don't let members of the board have their own management sectors? It is because when the work started for the first time; we didn't have enough possibilities and funds to arrange jobs based on technical advisors. Each sector that I initiated I started from scratch. Even the property was purchased on a bank loan; I bought all the machineries second hand and all of them with the minimum possible budget. All the solutions and ideas were mine. It was possible that I assigned the distribution to someone else, but only under my supervision, and my command and planning. I have shouldered the responsibly for the companies to take shape. I manage all th

I have had it. I have to vent. I have been a member of this site since the first week. I have posted on several topics and really enjoyed this as contact with the outside world while I am home with my kids. That being said...
I can't believe the nastiness that goes on here. If you are different in anyway, (i.e. non-dog owner, non-war supporter, have a different religion, how your kids get to school, if you come from a different country or sometimes region of this country) you open yourself to attacks from everyone.

I love watching CBS Sunday Morning occasionally on the TiVo. This past Sunday there was a great editorial that was the perfect blend of anger and compassion. Thought I would share.
I also TiVo Jon Stewart every night. If you missed Tuesday nights show, you missed one of his best. Ed Helms did a report where he finished by saying that Pres. Bush is making strides to fight his dwindling approval rating.

I have been sorting through all of the clothes and toys and things that we have accumulated over the year and have a ton that I would like to donate to a good cause. We used to have a tradition that the day after Christmas we would do out with the old and in with the new. The old would go to the homeless shelter or woman's shelter in our area. I don't know of anything like that here. I could have a yard sale but I would rather let the cup that I have run over to someone else.
Anyone have ideas?
I have clothes for girls mostly and a few boy things.

Someone else made a comment on another thread, I thought I would make a post about this. I am also looking for a babysitter. I live in the Farm and have been here for several months. I have 3 great kids. I even usually buy pizza for babysitters for dinner. I just want to be able to leave my kids with someone I trust for a few hours to go see Star Wars or try a couple of the grown up restaurants here and in Savannah. If you are interested in meeting me and my kids to see if babysitting is going to work out, email me at email@example.com or post a comment to this blog.

I know this is not the usual restaurant to review but I have too.
Yesterday I was stocking up at Super Walmart. And had all 3 kids with me. After (forever according to my 7 year old son) about an hour or so we were all starving and it was lunch time. I decided to take them to try out the new Blimpie that was put inside the Walmart.
Not only was it VERY clean in there but they were very quick in getting our order (4 sandwiches) and the food was great. The people were so friendly and there was the nicest man that was cleaning up behind all of the patrons.

Are there other Lost fans? I swear I have gone crazy for a week now waiting for the follow-up to last weeks season premier. What a compelling show this is! We didn't watch it most of last season but got hooked during the summer.
So what do you think is going on with the hatch? Where is Kate? And what happened to Walt? Has anyone read the 'everyone has a twin' theory that has been discussed in the forums? What do you think the black mist was? Who are 'the others'?

The thing that our family loves to do together is going out to dinner. I decided to change my blog entries to sort of reviewing the places that we have tried here in Bluffton. I also love to cook and love to share food and recipes with people. I have 3 kids and we take them everywhere. So therefore there will be lots of kid friendly tips.
Mi Tiera was where we went tonight. It is located just west of Habitat for Humanity in the Mellichamp Center. We are from the West and have been waiting for the day that we found good Mexican Food again. We sure found it tonight.

I noticed the Vote on the front page of the website yesterday asking about Family Friendly Restaurants. I am curious about this idea. Our family really fell in love with Montana's during our move here because we were staying up the street at the Holiday Inn Express. But it is a little expensive for all the time. We also love Guiseppi's for pizza.
We love to eat out as a family and even though our kids are little they are really well behaved in restaurants. It is curious to me why there are not more family things to do here. I thought that maybe I just don't know about them.

Shame on all of you for not mentioning Sigler's for "Where to go for dinner?"
We left the kids and went in there last night. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant. It was just enough intimate to be good date material but just enough eclectic to be non-stuffy. And I have to say that the food was the best I have had in recent memory. Both of us had the Rotisserie Prime Rib. We ordered the Fried Tomato Appetizer. It was so good that it was heaven. I have never had better Prime Rib. It was like experiencing it for the first time. It just melted.

Just a little heads up to all of you parents who are enbarking on the school supply hunts this week.
Go to Staples. They have everything and they have it on sale right now and not 3 weeks after year round school starts.
They have everything from the crayons ($.49 for 24 pack) to the red, yellow, green and blue folders ($.10) and wide ruled paper for $.50 a ream.
Hope this will save someone else from doing the Walmart, Target run around.
6 days and counting. (sigh, I have a kindergartener this year)

Best Store for Fishing Gear Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach 2001 - The Corner Store
Perfectly round, the building's shape reflects its origins; it was designed as a computer-operated, drive-thru convenience store. On the same spot for 30 years, this local landmark now carries everything you need for great fishing -- a smorgasbord of tackle and gear that covers half the store's shopping area --and everything you need for lousy fishing, too, such as 500 different brands of bottled beer, lovingly displayed in a rainbowlike series of coolers that curve around the store's other half. Co-owner Robert Lamelas says he gave up selling guns when he realized firearms and alcohol weren't a good mix. Consequently, funky as it is, the store's selection of wines is surprisingly good. Who'd expect a 1997 Mt. Veeder cab and some decent Burgundies among the Slim Jims and bait?

Federal Energy Regulators Reject Extension For Cortland County Wind Project
Friday, January 4, 2013
Federal energy regulators have rejected a request from the developers of an industrial wind tower project here in Cortland County. The Developers had asked for more time to meet a required regulatory deadline.
T-C-I Renewables which is looking to put up nearly 50 500 foot tall power producing wind turbines in the Towns of Cortlandville, Homer, Solon, and Truxton had applied to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for an extension of a October deadline for the project.
According to Gareth McDonald a project manager for T-C-I, in order to access State and Federal energy subsidies for the $200 million dollars project the company must meet certain milestones to ensure regulators that project is viable and is moving forward.
The Wind development hit a major snag this past fall when County lawmakers who are handling the environmental review for the project refused to release the draft environmental impact statement for development for public review and comment. Several lawmakers and members of the public felt the document was inadequate and did not fully address potential impacts associated with the wind towers.
Without the release of the document, T-C-I could not meet the required regulatory milestone and in an effort to force the process forward filed a lawsuit against the County. Supreme Court Judge Philip Rumsey ruled the County was not required to release the document.
Now, regulators say because the draft impact statement still hasn't been released the request for a deadline extension to December 17th is unnecessary.
McDonald has previously said the company still wants to continue with the environmental review process and get the public's comments on the project. McDonald was unavailable for comment on the regulators decision. McDonald did say in a previous interview that if T-C-I was forced to resubmit the project to regulatory review that they could not meet the 2015 deadline for the state and federal tax credits for the project.

Here, we describe an N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-induced missense error in the membrane-bound transcription factor peptidase site 1 (S1P)-encoding gene (Mbtps1) that causes enhanced susceptibility to dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. S1P cleaves and activates cAMP response element binding protein/ATF transcription factors, the sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs), and other proteins of both endogenous and viral origin. Because S1P has a nonredundant function in the ATF6-dependent unfolded protein response (UPR), woodrat mice show diminished levels of major endoplasmic reticulum chaperones GRP78 (BiP) and GRP94 in the colon upon DSS administration. Experiments with bone marrow chimeric mice reveal a requirement for S1P in nonhematopoietic cells, without which a diminished UPR and colitis develop.

The Health Cognition Group comprises a set of investigators who are each interested in the judgment and decision-making processes that underlie the onset, maintenance, and cessation of health-relevant behaviors (with a particular emphasis on behaviors relevant to cancer). The research endeavors directed by members of this group reflect a commitment to the development of psychological theory and its application to health research. The activities of this group are designed to further the synthesis of basic research on how people process and utilize health information with the development and evaluation of theory-based interventions to promote healthy behavior. Although these efforts are directed primarily to behaviors relevant to cancer, they are motivated by the broader goal of developing theoretical frameworks that can be applied across a range of behavioral domains.

When you are in wine country it is imperative to have a designated driver so you can enjoy all the wonderful wine tasting at the beautiful wineries. Do not leave out Chandon Champagne, it is interesting to see how they make it and the restaurant, though expensive, worth it. Have a mud bath and a massage in Calistoga, and stay at a B&B. We rented a limo for the day so that all 6 of us could enjoy the wine, and divide the expenses, and it was reasonable that way. Take a picnic lunch because many of the wineries have beautiful park like areas where you can pull up a table and relax. If at all possible go in May or late Sept, early Oct. Perfect weather. report a problem

Stop Gloating
Scott Brown's victory is an enormous opportunity – for the Democrats.
That is if we repeat the mistakes of the past in interpreting a "change" election.
There is no doubt that President Obama and Democratic over-reaching on stimulus and health care – to no immediate effect – fueled the Brown momentum in Massachusetts. They know that and after they get through finger-pointing and in-fighting, they will do some serious soul-searching in the wake of Brown's election much like we did after November 2008.
Republicans meanwhile appear to be reacting to Brown's win by puffing up our chests and assuming that we will win every place we play.
However, more than anything, voters in Massachusetts – as in states around the country – are fed up with government. The have no faith in the current leadership of both parties for good reason.
Neil Newhouse, the pollster for the Brown campaign, posted a summary of the verbatims from Massachusetts voters during the last two weeks of the race. "We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore," "Washington isn't listening to us," and "Don't take my vote for granted."
I worked with Neil on a race in 2006, and these were nearly word-for-word the verbatims we were hearing then. Voter dissatisfaction has nothing to do with party: the reason a plurality of independents voted for Obama in states like Virginia and Massachusetts, but voted to reject the status quo by voting for a Republican in November 2009 and yesterday.
Gauging the overall reaction to Scott Brown's victory returns bold statements about a Republican sweep in 2010, and the expectation that new candidates will materialize to challenge entrenched Democrats across the country. The theme "If Democrats Can Lose Massachusetts, They Can Win Anywhere" is taking off along with its sunnier twin, "If Republicans Can Win in Massachusetts, They Can Win Anywhere.
We can, and we will probably sail to victory in some races. Yet, in the same way that an over-confident, arrogant Martha Coakley saw the race slip from her hands, like Hillary Clinton in the 2008 Democratic primary, it's quite possible that several Republicans could suffer the same fate if we misinterpret the Brown win.
Failure to step back from a health care bill proven enormously unpopular. Failure to utilize new, effective tools and tactics for reaching voters like social media and online advertising. Failure to hold frequent townhalls, forums or events whereby a conversation takes place between candidate and citizens.
These failures are all hairline fractures caused by the same injury: arrogance. It's so last year to criticize Republicans for aloofness, but it will be so this year if we don't take a measured response to Brown's victory.
Just as with NY23rd....
...folks nationwide were looking for the "most" conservative candidate to support. In NY23 it was Hoffman. In Massachusetts it was Brown. A liberal Repub like Brown wouldn't make much of a splash in a red state like TX. But in MA - total different story. What was proven here and in NY23 was that folks nationwide are watching candidates in other parts of the country and are willing to support the "most conservative" of these. Financially and otherwise. IMO politics no longer necessarily starts at the local level. It'll be interesting to watch what happens in AZ w/McCain if JD Hayworth opposes him. I think we'll see the same trend.
I think Mindy points out something here very important. The GOP can expect to pick up several house and senate seats in 2010 but will it be enough to move the dynamic rightward? And rightward is where the populace wants to go. The GOP's reluctance to move rightward is what caused the loses on 11/7/06 and 11/4/08. The GOP threw its net on the wrong side of the boat in '06 & '08. No, there's still a lot of work to be done getting the GOP's dysfunctional house in order. IMO they still suffer from this "aloofness" but they're trying very hard (and unsuccessfully) to mask it. Certainly, no time to gloat or sit around on our laurels. Darvin Dowdy
Can we gloat a little?
Sure, I'll agree that Brown's victory doesn't necessarily mean that Sanders' Vermont seat is in play. But hell, that was one remarkable victory. Can't we savor it just a little bit?
No Kidding
Take a day to celebrate and gloat. Brown for president? I don't think so.
Historical victory? Hell yes. And we've had a "troll free" day as our resident trolls read Kos and figure out the spin (having no original thoughts of their own-right Mr. Smith?)
Gloat today, prepare for tomorrow and the next battle!
Clinton 2001
I think there are many similarities there, and many dissimilarities. Depends on who you ask, is this a victory for Republicans or a call to Dems? The distinction is important and pundits and strategist will be asking.
I can only imagine though that Dems will get their shit together and pass "stuff". We'll see if it's the right stuff, pun intended.
stop gloating, sure, but not now
What Chemjeff said. This election was friggin' yesterday. The rest are almost a year away. It's a bit early to tell anyone to stop gloating.
The long term message Repubs will take from yesterday's election is not "assuming that we will win every place we play" but correctly noting that we can win every place we play and not writing off any potentially competitive races.
435 district strategy
The long term message Repubs will take from yesterday's election is not "assuming that we will win every place we play" but correctly noting that we can win every place we play and not writing off any potentially competitive races.
Right after the 2008 election, Eric Erickson at Redstate had a post about having a 435-district strategy, where the Republican Party fields a competitive candidate in every single district. Brown's victory might give new impetus to this idea.
Instead of gloating
Instead of gloating, we're going to New Hampshire, we're going to South Carolina and Oklahoma and Arizona and North Dakota and New Mexico, and we're going to California and Texas and New York ... And we're going to South Dakota and Oregon and Washington and Michigan, and then we're going to Washington, D.C., to take back the White House! Yeah!!!
Unfortunately, republicans
Unfortunately, republicans don't know how to run the country either. It is all failed ideology. 8 years of tax cuts and where is the jobs?
Where the Jobs ? 8 yrs of 4.5% Unemployment is where
1 Yr of Obama, where are the JOBS ? Where is the Harvard Economic Brain ?
Obama would LOVE to have the BUSH Numbers on un-employment, Pick a Bush Year, any year..............and the Stock Market wouldLOVE to have the "Start" of a recovery.
Instead, we get Ignorance and an Ideology from Obama that does NOT WORK....12 Million Un-employed, and most of them Legal Citizens, are coming to DC and/or the Voting Booth.
DC could not concern themselves with a Million Tea Partiers.....maybe they will Notice NEXT Time...and Next time is coming this Year.
The Grass Roots are Growing ......even in the Winter.......along with the Washington DC Lies.
While Bush was in la la land
While Bush was in la la land with his tax cuts, my town lost some 2000 jobs (3 factories closed) out of a population of 16,000. Of course every year we heard that "free trade is good." This ideology was supposed to create the dream world and it did nothing. We had ignorance, arrogance, and failed ideology for 8 years. Obama is no better, but he did not create a recession. Nothing was done to invest in our country, in our people, and in the future. We sit here with no new jobs as the old jobs left the country. We saw the roaring 20's for those 8 years, our jobs went overseas, our money to Iraq, and our country neglected. We are where we are, in a hole and it will take 10 to 20 years to get out of it. These jobs we lost are not coming back and so far all we hear is the support of small business and/or "free market principles." Of course, that won't work in my town. No small business can start up where the factories left. So, let me know when the republicans have an answer. I have not heard of one yet.
La la Land...sounds like a Blue State Issue....what State ?
Bush could not protect you from Swartzenegger the RINO, or Michigan Politics, or the "Insolvency" of Illinois, or the Taxes of New Jersey, or the Nevada Disaster, or the Oregon Taxes........
Tell me when I mention your State ...................etc...
The Federal Government doesn't Create Jobs......they damn sure can take 'em away, but the only $$$$s the Feds Get, are thru Taxes.
China doesn't buy the Feds Products. Europe may buy an occaisional Missile defense System, but Ratheon and Friends produce those Products.
You're looking to the Feds for Salvation, and all they have is a 52% Unionized Bureaucracy and takeaway Tax Policies to feed the addiction.
You can sit with tax cuts or
You can sit with tax cuts or the constitution but this ideology does not solve problems. The problem we have today is globalization and it has taken millions of jobs. There are 2 to 3 billion cheap laborers that want our jobs, and there is not enough jobs to go around. The end result is to lose our standard of living. And that is what has been happening over the years. China is growing over 8% and we will have 3% temporarily but business is not hiring and besides there are no jobs to go to anyway. So the only other choice is welfare.
You are right, the federal government does not create jobs, however, it can create conditions for companies to create jobs. That is the following:
1. Invest in your country: Energy independence for security and for jobs. A new air traffic control system will make aircraft fly more direct routes and will save on fuel, creating profits and more aircraft can be bought creating more jobs. High speed rail in some areas. It is expensive, but the problem is and you have to ask yourself this: What widget can we make here that they can't make in China? So this is what we are up against. We are going to have to find jobs that will stay here.
2. Mandatory vocational training. This hits a sore spot, I know. However, we need to solve problems and not sit on failed ideology. It used to be that you could just work in a factory. That option is limited now and you need an educated society to compete with globalization.
Hudson Institute > Promoting U.S. Worker Competitiveness in a Globalized Economy
3. Invest in the future. Tax cuts does nothing for the future. That money was spent for the here and now. (roaring 20's and history repeats itself) You need more in federal research grants to universities and to business to create the science and future jobs of tomorrow.
Is America Losing Its Mojo? | Print Article | Newsweek.com
Now if you want to talk about a blue state issue, just what kind of governance should we have?
It is Washington, and not the states that said "Free trade is good" (Bush, and Clinton signed it). So it was Washington that got rid of our jobs. (However, I will make this point. It makes no difference if you have treaties or not. The fact remains that we have globalization.)
The cities and states cannot compete with 2 to 3 billion cheap laborers. The numbers are against them. So don't expect the cities and states by themselves to compete with China and other countries.
It is China growing at 8% and our country barely 3% with no hiring.
It is China that is doing the investing and not our country.
It is Washington that uses our money for war and neglected our country and our problems.
It is the right wing of the republican party that wants to put religion in government. And if you believe in the constitution and federalism, then this is sort of oxymoron.
So it seems to me, that there is some confusion on what republicans want to do. In any case, if you nothing, then you will have bigger government with welfare. So why not solve the problems?
Now, if republicans support small business, that will not fly in my town. A good analogy of this is the shopping malls. You need J.C. Penney and others to be the anchors and it also supports small business. The same holds true for small towns. Small business wraps around the factories. With no factories, you have no small business. Again, a failed ideology out of Washington.
And if you want (as Palin suggested) a country on free market principles, then we know China and other countries win with cheap labor. That is the way it works in economics. In other words we will be neglected like usual.
So there you have it. The tax cuts does not get down to the bottom 20% to 30% of the population. And since this is the area with most of the problems, this is the area that needs working on. Of course, as I said before with just tax cuts or the constitution, then we solve no problems. Then, we have to settle for high unemployment, more bailouts, more welfare, the loss of the middle class, and less tax revenue for cities, states, and the federal government. And to me, that is not good business.
Of course this was written in 1984

0 - 3 is a Trend....We're voting, not Gloating
Pay Attention..........Are you smarter than a 5th Grader ?
Actually, we were a little Slow on NY23, but we got better, Quickly. We the Teabaggers.
I am a conservative that was pleasantly surprised at last Tuesday's vote in Massachusetts. The people of that state were sending an emphatic message to Capital Hill... start listening to us. However, I agree with Mr. Dowdy that this was a strong message for change and not an endorsement of the Republican party. The citizens of this country have been very frustrated for a few years starting with Congress ignoring the illegal immigrant situation. It was ignored by both parties. casino online

The dominion of lucid dreams provides a more immense stage than everyday life for virtually everything imaginable, from the light-hearted to the inspirational. You can, if you want, relish an out of this world experience, whiz to the furthest stars, or take a vacation to spiritual domains. You can connect with those who are experimenting with lucid dreaming as an implement for problem solving, self-healing, and self-growth. Or you can look into the effects of knowledge from age-old traditions and reports from modern-day psychologists that point out that lucid dreaming might assist you to uncover your innermost self: who you really are.
Everything is reliant on memory recall and this is definitely true with lucid dreaming. Having the ability to recollect your dreams is important if you desire to find out how to dream lucidly. Until you have exceptional dream recollection, you will not stand a great deal of hope of having, that much if any, lucid dreams.
The two reasons for this are that first, even if you do manage to have a lucid dream you will not be able to remember it. The thing is people dream all the time and a lot of people have probably have had many lucid dreams but because of a hectic life style most dreams are blocked out. And the second reason is good dream recollection is necessary because if you want to have lucid dreams you need to recognise that your dream is a dream, while it's happening. Since they're your dreams that you're undertaking to identify, you have to get accustomed with what they're like.
Keep a dream diary.
So the first thing you must do to be able to have excellent dream recall is getting yourself a dream diary so you can record your dreams first thing on waking up. You will find that after a few days of writing down your dreams that you will be able to recall many of them. Also make sure you have satisfactory sleep every night. If you are refreshed, you will find it is a lot easier to centre on your aim of recalling dreams. Also you won't mind waking up in the middle of the night so much, to write them down.
The whole idea of remembering your dreams is so that you can later wake yourself up while you are dreaming. Once you can wake yourself up in your dream you will then be able to control your dream. That is why you should read your dream diary every day so that you can become accustomed to the dream like state and recognize them occurring. As soon as you start to remember your dreams you can then start to analyse them to see if there is any specific meaning in them for you. Remember the symbolism that you get in your dream will mean something to you. Basically everyone has a different meaning for whatever symbol they see in their own dream. Good Luck.

Jared Miley Triumphant In 14th Annual King of the Knob at Roaring Knob Motorsports Park MARKLEYSBURG, PA (September 10, 2011) � Jared Miley, of South Park, PA, won his first-ever checkered flag Saturday night at Roaring Knob Motorsports Complex. Miley's win came in the fourteenth running of the "King of the Knob" for Super Late Models. The 51-lap event was co-sanctioned by the UFo and Three State Flyers Series and paid the winner $5000. Rick Strickler (Krause Electric FASTRAK Late Models), Jim Bendishaw, Jr. (TC Race Car Parts Street Stocks), Marty Spade, Jr. (Ft. Necessity Garage Chargers) and Wes McDaniels (Roadrunners) all scored feature wins. Jared Hawkins won the August 27th make-up feature for the American Racer Tire Super Late Models. The 14th running of the King of the Knob enters the record books as another exciting show. At the end of the 51 lapper Jared Miley scored his first-ever win at Roaring Knob. DJ Cline took the initial lead at the drop of the green. Miley passed him on lap two for the lead. Devin Friese got around Cline for second on lap nine. Friese made his move on a lap 12 restart and took the lead from Miley. Friese's lead was short lived when Miley retook the top spot on lap 16. While Miley lead the battle, racing in his rearview mirror was fun to watch. Friese, Covert (from 11th) and Jared Hawkins were dicing it out for the runnerup spot. Covert masterfully worked his way into contention and took the second spot on lap 25. He moved in and challenged Miley for the lead. As they battled Hawkins also joined in as did Friese. Miley had his hands full but never skipped a beat out front. The final caution appeared on lap 48. When the green dropped Hawkins took advantage of a rare Covert mistake to take second and immediately caught the high flying Miley. Hawkins, fresh off his big wins last week at Tyler County, threw all he had at Miley but came up a little short. Miley parked the #H1 in victory lane for the first time at Roaring Knob and added his name to the impressive list of drivers who have been crowned "King of the Knob". Hawkins settled for second followed by Jason Covert, Devin Friese, Jeremy Miller, who came from the tail after a spin, Corey Conley (from 20th), Butch McGill, Mason Zeigler, Danny Mitchell (from 19th) and Jerry Bard. Preliminary winners were Miley, McGill, Jamie Lathrom and Tim Senic. Greg Fetters and Ron Delano shared B-Main checkers. In the make-up 25-lap American Racer Tire Super Late Model feature from August 27, it was all Jared Hawkins. Hawkins started on the pole and was never seen again. The Fairmont, WV driver earned his second feature win of 2011 at the Knob and lapped all but the top six. Billy Holbert was second over Mason Zeigler, Scott Rhodes, Bob Gordon, LC Powers, Ron Delano, Jr., Richard Frazier, Mark Booth and Chuck Clise. Heat winners from August 27 were Gordon, Hawkins and Ziegler. The Krause Electric FASTRAK Late Models were also on the night's card. Billy Stile III took the lead at the drop of the green looking for his first win of the year. Stile led the first 13 laps until Morgantown, WV driver Rick Strickler made his winning pass. Strickler then proceeded to build up a good lead while Derek Doll stormed his way from 20th to grab the runnerup spot on lap 16. Doll closed the gap but ran out of time as Strickler won his second feature of the year. Rounding out the top ten were Doll, Ryan Montgomery, John Over, Billy Stile III, Nico Dabecco, Troy Shields, Ricky Meglaye, Mike Opalinski and Andrew Wylie. Heat winners included Strickler, Montgomery and Stile. Uniontown's Jimmy Bendishaw, Jr. sat in victory lane for the fifth time this season in the 15-lap TC Race Car Parts Street Stock main event. Bendishaw trailed leader Bob Neratka for eleven laps before making the winning move. Todd Dennis followed into second one lap later but could not muster the extra power to pass Bendishaw. Behind Bendishaw and Dennis were Bob Nelson, Ryan Newman, John Redshaw, Chris Lucy, Tom Newman, Charlie McClain, Barry Faris and Ben Policz. Dennis and Bendishaw were also the heat winners. Marty Spade, Jr. gave the Ford fans some excitement in winning his sixth Ft. Necessity Garage 12-lap feature. Spade had to pass leader JT Baird on lap six before earning the win. Baird held on for second over Brad Jenkins, Kyle Burkholder, Kenny Burkholder, CJ Nicola, Cody Colflesh, Bus Matthews, Bob Matthews and Eric Miller. Heats were won by Spade and Baird. The 10-lap Roadrunner feature saw a new winner as Wes McDaniel took the heat and feature. McDaniels, making his first visit to Roaring Knob, came all the way from Littlestown, PA. He is a top runner at the Trail-Way Speedway in Hanover, PA. The 19-year-old driver, won in a car owned by his girlfriend, beat out six time winner Steve Settle, Todd Detrick, Jason Myers and Allen Fortney. The 2011 track champions were also crowned Saturday night. Congratulations to Scott Rhodes in earning his first Roaring Knob track championship in the American Racer Tire Super Late Models. Rhodes won three features on his way to securing the crown. John Over won his second straight Krause Electric FASTRAK Late Model championship. Over won two A-Mains this year. Todd Dennis racked up eight feature wins on his way to earning another point title in the TC Race Car Parts Street Stocks. Kenny Burkholder won his second FT. Necessity Garage point championship while earning a season best six feature wins. Steve Settle also earned six checkers in taking the first-ever point championship crowned at Roaring Knob for the 4 Cylinder Roadrunners.

How To Make Twitter Part Of Your Online Marketing Strategy
Monday, December 22nd, 2008Here is a question I got recently:
Biana, I have been following your advice and I am seeing great results. I am now using my article marketing and blogging to bring in web site visitors, turn them into newsletter subscribers and then into clients. Last month I got 74 new subscribers!!!
I was on your social networking call a few months ago where you talked about social networking and Twitter in particular. I am wondering how I should incorporate Twitter into my existing online marketing strategy. Should I use it to bring people to my web site? Should I use it to get more newsletter subscribers? What's the best way to do that?
Biana's answer: I think it is great that you are thinking about adding Twitter to your marketing lineup. Social networking has been a part of my online marketing strategy for a long time and social networking has been bringing great results year after year.
I also find it's great that you are creating strategy for using Twitter and how it is going to fit into your online marketing plan before starting to use it. I see many business owners starting to use Twitter and other social networking web sites, use them for a while and only then try to understand how to fit them into their online marketing plan to generate leads and clients. By thinking about this before you jump in you are way ahead of many business owners.
I recommend using Twitter for listening to your target market, creating awareness for your brand and expertise, and building your list. You can also use Twitter for promoting your products, teleseminars and services. But if you use it first to accomplish the first three tasks, you will see much better results when you do start promoting your products, teleseminars and services. Here is how it works:
– Listen To Your Target Market. One of the biggest benefits that Twitter provides business owners with is the ability to connect with their target market and hear what the target market is talking about.
One of the biggest challenges that business owners face is not knowing what they target market needs. At Twitter you are able to listen to your target market, see what kind of issues your target market is experiencing and what kind of help your target market needs.
Now use this information to offer a product or a service that your target market needs and you will see great results!
– Create Awareness For Your Brand And Expertise. Twittering, sharing and connecting with others will help you create more awareness for your business. Many people learn about their new Twitter friends by following their profile link. So make sure you include your link and watch your web site traffic increase!
And, twits are listed in search engines, thus helping you increase awareness of your business even more!
– Build Your List. The bigger your list, the more successful your business is. Use Twitter to build your list by sharing information about your free gift and your newsletter with your followers. Don't promote it all the time, but it's perfectly fine to mention your offers from time to time.
Make Twitter part of your Online Marketing Strategy – you will see that with some thinking and planning, you can start seeing results from social networking!
