The neighborhood of North Port St. Joe will begin to see water line replacement in the near future.
The city of Port St. Joe has been awarded a $650,000 Community Development Block Grant which will fund water line replacement along Avenues B-D between Battle Street and U.S. Highway 98.
In effect, the grant allows the city to complete phase one of the replacement of some 20 miles of aging water distribution pipe which is believed the primary culprit in the city's ongoing issues with discolored water.
The CDBG grant was sought last year as a method to pay for one portion of the first phase – and save the city costs of tapping into loans/grants from the State Revolving Fund – of water line replacement.
Due to the age of pipes and financial demographics, the area of North Port St. Joe was seen as a prime candidate for a CDBG to underwrite the work.
"This is big," said Mayor Mel Magidson.
The award comes as the contractor is winding up work on the opening phase, which was the replacement of roughly eight miles of pipe. There are some dry connections still to be made, said engineer Clay Smallwood with Preble Rish Engineers, but the contractor is wrapping up the work in the coming weeks.
The city will embark on the second phase later this spring.
The first phase came in with the city saving roughly $95,000 and that will be used for a pilot project of sorts for the Public Works Department.
Part of the next phase of line replacement is replacing a section of line along Marvin Avenue and John Grantland, director of Public Works, said he and his crew could accomplish the replacement of that section to test how much of subsequent work might be done in-house to save money.
"We'd like the opportunity to show we can do the work and save some money," Grantland said. "Our skill set has changed that we know and are confident we can do this and save money."
Water pilot study
After a meeting with CDM Smith, the company which designed the city's water plant, city staff and a professor at Virginia Tech, which will monitor and test results, a water study is underway.
The goal of the eight month study is to isolate the cause of the city's red water and to determine a course of action in addressing the problem.
The study will involve taking water samples from throughout the distribution area on a continuing basis, testing from plant to home or business, and sending the samples to Virginia Tech for analysis.
The hope is that by the end of the study the city will have a chemical addition protocol that will address the discoloration of water in the most cost-effective way.
This year's initial uni-directional flushing of the water distribution system has moved throughout much of the city proper out to Sacred Heart Hospital on the Gulf, Grantland said.
He said crews should be finished with North Port St. Joe and Highland View by this week and move up to White City.
"It's been a better process than last year," Grantland said. "We saw a big difference."
He cautioned that the flushing will cause upset in the lines and anybody impacted by sudden discoloration should call City Hall or Public Works to report the problem so that crews can come out and thoroughly flush the area.

Well, I guess my whole perception of how 5.1 is supposed to work with this sound device and my analog speakers was wrong. I am now lead to believe, please correct me if I am wrong, that the only way to get surround (not true 5.1) is to use the software's "surround" option, which actually just bleeds the front channels to the rears with a fraction of delay. The only way to get true 5.1 discrete channels is through the digital out and to digital speakers using a source that is truly 5.1 encoded. Is that right? That would explain a lot. Anyway, with the help I have gotten here I have everything sounding pretty good. I use the EQ in Windows Media Player but understand that there are several better free ones. I will look into that.
Thanks for everything

I am very delighted and happy to share with you one of my very favorite portraits. The medium I used was water color on a 14 inch by 20 inch hard water color board. I hope that you will love this painting and story as much as I loved having the honor of presenting it to you today.
Mrs. Catherine Lee Fraizier Yeates was born on Nov. 25, 1899 to Ada and Lewis Fraizer who lived in Sturgis in. I was born on March 4, 1942 to Elizabeth Jeanette Lewis McReynolds and John Andrew McReynolds II in Starkville. I have loved and known Catherine since my birth 70 years ago. I was born in a two story old clap board home which was then the only hospital we had for our city, county and Mississippi State University patients. It was located right behind a building built later which was the Felix Long Memorial Hospital. In 1973, the Oktibbeha County Hospital was completed on Hospital Road here in Starkville. It is a fine community hospital.
I was brought into the world by both Eckford medical doctors. Dr. Jim Eckford, MD and Dr. Feddy Eckford, MD. Dr. Feddy was fresh out of Tulane Medical University in Louisanna, and his daddy wanted to make sure that Feddy knew what he was doing in mama's labor and delivery. Mama was 30 years old when I was born and when we left that hospital, Catherine came home with us.
Catherine became my number one baby infant nurse and stayed with mama until she could get back on her feet and gain her strength again for several weeks. Catherine was a part of our family in 1942, and she again became a dear and wonderful part of my own immediate family when our three children were born. Catherine was for many years the baby nurse for many prominent families living here. She was truly a beloved family member of ours as she now was nursing our second generation of our babies who were just tiny infants.
Her face tells her own story of her life as I took my pencil and first sketched her facial features, and then my brush strokes, filled with many colors, painted my own special deep love for her. I attempted to capture her sweetness, kindness and very gentle personality. She was a lot of fun mixed in with being a real hoot of a Southern lady from Mississippi.
Let's now share it together as if we are reading a book about her life within the paint itself. We'll open up her biography and read the sentences of her face starting with the first sentence on the left hand side going to the right hand side of the painting. This is a lady who lived life to its fullest, and adored every minute of taking care of a new born infant.
At the top of her head, see the soft graying salt and pepper fine hair pulled back in a bun. It is almost white in color. I see a halo at the top of her head. Do you? She was an angel her on earth. Several strands of her pulled back hair have fallen gently on the sides of her head.
Look at her eyebrows, and then look deeply into the expression within her eyes. Her nose is elegant, and her lips show us a feeling of sweetness and caring. Look back at her ears and she has on tasteful ear bobs. See her sagging neck. To the far left, you can see a hint of a comfortable metal green yard chair she was sitting in underneath her car port where we had decided that I could paint her portrait in the cool car port that day. Look at her zip up "pretty in pink" dress in a stylish cotton material. Find the pretty little dark blue and crystal rhinestone pin right at the top of the collar just above the top of the head of her zipper. Look at the shadows of the collar and the zipper area on the right and left sides of her dress. I left the back ground pure white so that all of her facial features almost looked angelic.
What a beautiful lady both outside and inside her heart and soul. All I have left of Catherine are my precious cherished memories and this water color portrait. I treasure her portrait and my memories of knowing that she helped mama, and then helped me with the second generation of babies the first few weeks of their lives.
On October 2, 2012, my husband conducted his 15th International Insect Rearing Workshop. His lead speaker was Dr. Frank Franklin MD, MPH, Ph.D, a Professor Emeritus of Public Health at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I invited Dr. Franklin to take a tour of our family home.
Dr. Franklin's expertise is in feeding young children the correct balance of food especially plenty of proteins. A baby needs proper protein in the first 1,000 days of his or her life to survive as a healthy human being, both physically and mentally into their adult years. I had a great time showing him our family home, and when we got to the guest back bedroom I had stacked a few of paintings.
He leaned down and began carefully thumbing through them. I noticed when he came to Catherine's portrait, he hesitated as if Catherine were speaking him. I asked him, "Frank, what painting did you like best?" He said, "The one of your baby nurse, Catherine Yeates." I knew for sure that he cared about feeding babies and tiny children of this world so that they would grow up to be contributing and productive grown human beings. In a way, Frank Franklin is much like Catherine Yeates, a very wonderful, nurturing and kind person.
About Catherine, Mrs. Shirley Carley, wrote, "Catherine Yeates did not keep a count of the babies she helped deliver and care for during her years as a practical nurse, but the number probably would reach close to one hundred. It was not until she was in her 40s that she took a course in practical nursing from long time Starkville nurse, Frances Witherspoon. For the next 35 years, she was in much demand especially by going home with mothers who wanted her with them those first few weeks of the baby's life."
Catherine once said, "You know, newborns look like little old folks, toothless and wrinkled. I used to complain that just as I got one all smoothed up, then I'd have to leave them and go and straighten out another."
Catherine Lee Fraizer Yeates' sunrise was on Nov. 25, 1899 and her sunset was on March 29, 1999. She is buried at Oddfellow Cemetery. She was preceded in death by her only daughter, Letha D. Gillespie and her family, and by her adopted son, Freddie Lee Miller, along with grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I would add my own name to her family because I too was her baby, as well as all three of my children.
If I could whisper to her right now, I would say, "I still love you so much Catherine for going home with mama, changing my cloth diapers, burping me, and holding, cuddling and loving me so much as well as all three of my babies too. This has been 70 years ago, and I loved you then, and I continue to love and think about you."
Look one more time at Catherine's painting. We see within her facial features, especially her eyes, the admiration, caring, sweetness, kindness and most of all love within her wonderful heart. Her knowledge in knowing how tenderness helped give the tiny helpless babies that she first touched and welcomed each one into this big world of ours. From the bottom of my heart, I thank her.

Indian Land High School will appeal the South Carolina High School League's one-year probation for its involvement in an incident with McBee High School in a Conference III-A basketball game Jan. 6.
Warriors' athletic director Mike Mayer said Indian Land will make its appeal at a meeting of the League's 18-member executive committee Jan. 29 at the SCHSL's office in Columbia.
The S.C. High School League is the governing body of interscholastic competition in the Palmetto State.
Jan. 22, 2009, was the 36th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to legalize abortion. For 36 years, Americans of all walks of life have taken to the streets of Washington D.C. to have their voices heard.
They don't get media attention, but still the word gets out – people are listening – abortion is wrong and more and more women are choosing life. Here in South Carolina the number of abortions declined by 50 percent.
Fall's finest in Lancaster High School sports took center stage in the school's auditorium Wednesday night.
The Bruins honored top performers in fall sports at the annual awards night sponsored by the Bruins Booster Club.
Top football honors were shared by senior stars Dawan Thompson and William Kirkland who led the Bruins to a 10-4 mark and a No. 9 ranking in the final Class AAAA state football poll.
The surging Lancaster Bruins opened Region IV-AAAA basketball play in a big way as LHS topped South Pointe 70-64 for a split of the league twin bill on Monday night.
The game was played Monday as not to conflict with the Lancaster County School District exam schedule which began Tuesday.
The Bruins' six-point win saw LHS rally from a 36-30 halftime deficit.
Lancaster outscored the Stallions 22-12 in the pivotal third period as the Bruins took the lead and stayed in control for the win.
I, too, was appalled when I learned that Gov. Mark Sanford wanted to close the University of South Carolina at Lancaster. USCL offered me a great opportunity of being employed there for 12 years. As a former employee and USCL student, I did not waste my time trying to find out if Lancaster City Council member Linda Blackmon-Brace "had done her homework" or if she "was from here." I contacted Dean John Catalano to ask what could I do to support USCL.
Lancaster High School senior defensive aces Stephno Drakeford (43) and Dawan Thompson (32) were key performers in the Bruins' defensive unit this fall.
Lancaster High School split a pair of matches on Monday night.
The Bruins downed Class AAA Fairfield Central 59-18 and LHS fell to Region IV-AAAA foe Rock Hill. The Bearcats are ranked No. 1 in the latest Class AAAA state poll.
The match with Rock Hill was originally set for last Tuesday, but was postponed due to the winter storm on that day.
Senior Dawan Thompson and Donald Heath were the only double winners in the tri-match. Thompson prevailed on a pin and a forfeit. Heath posted a pin and a decision.
Close friends (and most folks in general) know that my wife and I have been blessed with a couple of great-grandchildren, one of each species.
The little boy is 15 months old and the little girl joined the family about five months ago. He lives in Lancaster and she lives in Old Line State (that's Maryland).
Our granddaughter in Maryland is having a tough time finding a spot in an infant day care facility for her latest addition.
Nation Ford made the most of its visit to the Lancaster High School gym on Tuesday night.
The visiting Falcons swept a non-region hoops twin bill from the Bruins.
The Lady Bruins dropped a 55-48 loss to the Lady Falcons.
In the nightcap, Nation Ford was able to gain the early lead and stayed ahead for the 71-65 win.
The Falcons were able to hold a narrow lead, but protected it to the finish for the six-point victory.

The Old Gold
2105 N Killingsworth st; theoldgoldpdx.com
FOR: Friends of North Portland
YOU'RE HAVING: El Diablo (tequila, crème de cassis, Brew Dr. Lemon Ginger Cayenne Kombucha, lime juice, cayenne)
This much is certain: North Portland is thrilled about the Old Gold. The moment you step onto its freshly cemented patio and cross that oh-so-familiar threshold of the rolled-up garage door, you can feel a distinct sense of euphoria saturating the room. Because the Old Gold is just the bar this patch of Overlook needed—a cozy local watering hole where you just might run into a neighbor or strike up a conversation with a perfect stranger. But beyond its freewheeling, wide-open atmosphere, the bustling bar also boasts some uniquely admirable assets, among them a hand-hewn, wooden, White Stag–esque "Drink in Oregon" sign, a memorable elk burger and tofu banh mi, and, best of all, a spacious booth outfitted with a "Champagne Button." (Push it, and your server will appear with Champagne. Really.) The cocktail menu makes a good-natured stab at mixing in kombucha, which doesn't always shine. But six local taps and a chalkboard scrawled with an impressive, always changing selection of whiskeys offers surefire redemption. —RR
Riffle NW
333 NW 13th Ave; rifflenw.com
FOR: Serious Cocktail Geeks
YOU'RE HAVING: Riffle Collins (gin, lemon, lime, celery, absinthe, salt)
An evening spent at the bar at Riffle NW is akin to a grad-school class in drinking. Behind a perfectly bespoke bar, beverage director David Shenaut and his dapper cohorts have created a cocktail science lab, doling out professorial wisdom on bitters, aeration, and dilution; hand-carving ice cubes with Japanese woodworking saws; and carefully calibrating cocktails to dispense, perfectly carbonated, from a shiny row of taps. You might think it's all a little overwrought—until you take your first sip. Every drink holds a sly wink of surprise, whether it's the addictive celery essence of the Riffle Collins or the savory allspice dancing on a foundation of sweet cachaça in a drink dubbed the Leya. And because the cocktails are carefully arranged in food-friendly sequence, from aperitifs to light spirits to brown liquors, a beer cocktail, and finally, digestifs, pairing each with a bite from Riffle's bar menu of creative, super-fresh seafood is a no-brainer. —RR
The Woodsman Tavern
4537 SE Division St; woodsmantavern.com
FOR: Bourbon-Loving Perfectionists
YOU'RE HAVING: Hunting Vest (Campari steeped in charred cedar, rye, vermouth)
Standing behind the bronze bar at the Woodsman Tavern is Evan Zimmerman, one of Portland's best bartenders—and this particular restaurant's high-proof beating heart. In his natty suspenders, Zimmerman is unflinchingly affable, encyclopedic in his knowledge of cocktails, and judicious with his pours. His motto—"elegant and understated"—runs deep through the Woodsman's rotating cocktail list, from a tart, foaming "Blackthorn Sour" (sloe gin, apricot brandy, lemon juice, pineapple gomme syrup) to the "Judge, Jury and Executioner" (Old Weller bourbon, Amaro, cucumber, macerated Sichuan flowers), with its cool cucumber nose and spicy final kick. In an evening at this sturdy bar, questions are encouraged and feedback is welcomed. If you're not in a cocktail mood, try a pint from one of the 16 curated taps, and don't leave without a "pickleback"—Irish whiskey chased by a briny shot of pickle juice. —BT
Dig a Pony
736 SE Grand Ave; digaponypdx.tumblr.com
FOR: Portland Scenesters
YOU'RE HAVING: Sam Isaacs (bourbon, mint, blackberries, lime)
Dance-party madness spills onto SE Morrison Street from this one-year-old, DJ-fueled destination where great-looking people come to play and everyone else comes to watch. A tremendous horseshoe bar anchors the room, while sprawling white tile, Oriental rugs, and a 110-year-old piano set the stage for impromptu weekend raves. Svelte, speedy bartenders shake up a storm for an impressive 280-degree performance, and local DJs pump '90s vinyl into the well-heeled crowd. Dig a Pony turns out a surprisingly crafty food menu, with a top-quality Painted Hills burger smeared with sweet onion jam, and a bowl of sautéed mushrooms and soft-poached egg mopped up with shoestring fries. The overall vibe? A time-tangling mix of modern sophistication and boomtown honkytonk. In a word: confidence. —BT
The Box Social
3971 N Williams Ave; bxsocial.com
FOR: Lovers
YOU'RE HAVING: The Thoroughbred (Torani Amer, brandy, maraschino, lemon, pomegranate shrub)
Portland may have found its quintessential date spot in the Box Social. Unsurprisingly, it comes courtesy of Shannon McQuilkin, co-owner of the city's other quintessential date spot, the Sapphire Hotel. The Box Social aims for a level of sophistication matched to the modern Portland crowd, with floor-to-ceiling embroidered drapes; a long, tufted-leather banquette; a dark, candlelit mahogany bar; and a huge hand-painted mural of Portland's twinkling cityscape. Sure, it might feel a bit Sex and the City for Portland's hipster set, but this 1,000-square-foot box creates a little world that you can't help but get lost in. An extensive menu of original, classic, and bubbly cocktails holds some deliciously potent creations—along with plenty of drinking vinegars, beer, and wine—while well-priced nibbles range from parmesan popcorn to a pitch-perfect butter lettuce salad and decadent fig compote panini. If this place doesn't set the mood, we don't know what will. —RR

What others are saying
"Sago Pondweed"Shane of Green Cove Springs, FL
Bought this to treat Sago Pondweed that is starting to spread over approx. 5000 Sq.ft. pond. Absolutely non affective and would not recommend. No results at all. Waste of money. **Comment from The Pond Guy - When using liquid application, we recommend using a surfactant to break down the surface of the weed. This helps chemical treatments be more effective.**View entire review

Fact-checking the Arizona presidential debate
Wednesday night's Republican debate in Arizona was a welcome return of our favorite show, but it ended with something of a cliffhanger.
It was Episode 20, but because no more Republican debates are scheduled, it's possible it was the last of the season.
The debate covered some familiar ground and had plenty of interesting new claims. We'll be updating this story as we post new Truth-O-Meter items.

Nation Topics - Nuclear Arms and Proliferation
News and Features
A report by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's Space Commission advocates circumventing the intent of international laws that seek to keep space free from war and urges that the President "have the option to deploy weapons in space."
The prevailing view of the Bush Administration's expulsion of some fifty Russian diplomats in retaliation for the Robert Hanssen spy scandal has been that it was a throwback to cold war days when the great game of tit for tat was the normal way of doing things. But the apparent recrudescence of the cold war mindset should be cause for concern. The only alternative interpretation--that Washington hasn't any better ideas for dealing with Moscow--is equally troubling.
For one thing, the size of the expulsions was excessive. One would have to go back to 1986 to find comparable numbers. Also, they come on the heels of a stream of in-your-face pronouncements by Administration figures--Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, for example, calling Russia an "active proliferator" and his deputy, Paul Wolfowitz, saying it is "willing to sell anything to anyone for money"--and the loud insistence that the ill-conceived National Missile Defense scheme must go through regardless of Moscow's (or China's or Europe's) objections.
In fact, America does need a new Russia policy after the Clinton Administration's failures. Russia should be our number-one security worry--not because of its strength or aggressiveness but because of its weakness. Its economy has collapsed, its military is demoralized. But it remains a nuclear power equal to the United States. Indeed, the difference between now and cold war times is that the Soviet state was in control of its nuclear devices. Now, it sits atop a crumbling nuclear infrastructure, with poorly maintained reactors, vulnerable stockpiles and a dangerously degraded control system over missiles that remain, like our own, on hair trigger alert. The possibility of an accidental launch triggering a nuclear exchange has never been greater.
The reversion to mindless cold war games obscures these new threats and makes even more difficult the US-Russian cooperation needed to deal with them. That each side will spy on the other is a fact of international life and should not be used as a pretext for further distancing. Washington's priority should be working more closely with Moscow to make the latter's nuclear armaments more secure. The cold war is over. It is frightening that the Bush people show no signs of comprehending this.
Depleted uranium constitutes one of largest
radioactive and toxic-waste byproducts of the nuclear age. Over the
past half-century, 700,000 metric tons of DU--more than half of all
the uranium ever mined in the world--was produced at three
government-owned uranium enrichment plants in Oak Ridge, Tennessee;
Paducah, Kentucky; and Portsmouth, Ohio. This DU now sits in some
50,000 steel cylinders, each weighing about thirteen tons, stacked in
huge piles outside the enrichment plants. A major leak in one of the
cylinders could pose an acute risk to workers and the public. After
years of prodding, DOE is starting a multibillion-dollar effort to
convert these wastes to a safer form.
DU is less
radioactive than other isotopes and is officially considered to be
more of a toxic than a radiological hazard. However, whatever the
case with the most common form of DU, there are other forms that have
been proven highly dangerous. From the early 1950s through the 1970s,
some 150,000 tons of uranium, containing plutonium-239 and larger
amounts of equally dangerous neptunium-237, were recycled from
nuclear-weapons production reactors and processed at the three
gaseous-diffusion plants. This material also went throughout the DOE
nuclear-weapons production complex in several states, and some
apparently found its way to the Persian Gulf and Balkans
According to a DOE study released this past
January (www.eh.doe.gov/benefits), workers who handled recycled
uranium at the Paducah plant between the 1950s and 1970s were heavily
exposed. The report noted that some workers were required to strike
large cloth-filter bags with metal rods to remove heavy
concentrations of uranium laced with neptunium and plutonium. They
were given little protection, and no effort was made to measure
exposures or inform workers about the dangers of handling this
material because the union might have demanded hazard
Workers' exposure risks were revealed in an official
review of DOE occupational epidemiological studies, which found that
workers at fourteen DOE facilities bore increased death risks from
cancer and other diseases following exposure to radiation and other
substances. Excess deaths from various cancers and nonmalignant lung
and kidney diseases were found among uranium workers at six
facilities. This report prompted the Energy Department to concede
officially on January 28, 2000, that its employees were harmed by
workplace exposures, and it served as an underpinning for a major
nuclear-weapons worker-compensation program enacted by Congress last
year. Under the new law, workers at the three gaseous-diffusion
plants exposed to recycled reactor uranium are eligible to receive
compensation for twenty-two listed cancers through a process in which
the burden of proof is shifted to the government.
are not the only casualties of the cold war uranium mess. The
National Academy of Sciences concluded last year that large areas at
DOE nuclear-material production sites cannot be cleaned up to safe
levels and will require indefinite, long-term institutional controls.
Official cost estimates to deal with this daunting problem are $365
billion and climbing. In effect, the production of depleted uranium
and other nuclear materials may have created de facto "national
sacrifice zones." Meanwhile, the Pentagon gets DU free of charge, as
our nation pays an enormous cost in terms of workers, the
environment, public safety and the US Treasury.
Keeping the lid on the truth about Kosovo.
George W. Bush's mid-February directive
ordering the Pentagon to review and restructure the US nuclear
arsenal is a wake-up call for supporters of arms control and
disarmament. Under the guise of revising nuclear policy to make it
more relevant to the post-cold war world, the Bush Administration is
pushing an ambitious scheme to deploy a massive missile defense
system and develop a new generation of nuclear weapons. If fully
implemented, Bush's aggressive new policy could provoke a multisided
nuclear arms race that will make the US-Soviet competition of the
cold war era look tame by comparison.
To understand the
danger of Bush's emerging nuclear doctrine, you have to read the fine
print. Some elements of his approach--first outlined at a May 23,
2000, speech at the National Press Club--sound sensible. Bush implied
that if elected President, he would reduce the nation's arsenal of
nuclear overkill from its current level of 7,500 strategic warheads
to 2,500 or less. In tandem with these reductions, which go beyond
anything the Clinton Administration contemplated, Bush also promised
to take as many nuclear weapons as possible off hairtrigger alert
status, thereby reducing the danger of an accidental
So far, so good: fewer nuclear weapons, with fewer
on high-alert status, would be a step in the right direction.
Unfortunately, Bush also committed himself to deploying, "at the
earliest possible date," a missile defense system capable of
defending "all fifty states and our friends and allies and deployed
forces overseas." Unlike the $60 billion Clinton/Gore National
Missile Defense scheme, which involved land-based interceptors based
in Alaska and North Dakota, Bush's enthusiasm for a new Star Wars
system knows no limit. The President and his Star Warrior in Chief,
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, are willing to put missile
interceptors on land, at sea, on airplanes and in outer space in
pursuit of continued US military dominance.
When Bush
announced Rumsfeld's appointment in late December, he acknowledged
that the Pentagon veteran would have a big "selling job" to do on
national missile defense, with allies and potential adversaries
alike. But even Washington's closest NATO allies continue to have
grave reservations about Rumsfeld's suggestion that the United States
might trash the Anti-Ballistic Missile treaty of 1972 in order to
pursue its missile defense fantasy. Meanwhile, Russian President
Vladimir Putin has flatly stated that a US breakout from the treaty
would call the entire network of US-Russian arms agreements into
The cost of Bush's Star Wars vision could be as
much as $240 billion over the next two decades, but that's the least
of our problems. According to a Los Angeles Times account of a
classified US intelligence assessment that was leaked to the press
last May, deployment of an NMD system by the United States is likely
to provoke "an unsettling series of political and military ripple
effects...that would include a sharp buildup of strategic and
medium-range nuclear missiles by China, India and Pakistan and the
further spread of military technology in the Middle
Bush's provocative missile defense scheme may not
even be the most dangerous element of his new-age nuclear policy.
According to Steven Lee Myers of the New York Times, Bush's
renovation of US nuclear doctrine will draw heavily on a January 2001
study by the National Institute for Public Policy that was directed
by Dr. Keith Payne, whose main claim to fame is co-writing a 1980s
essay on nuclear war titled "Victory Is Possible." Bush National
Security Council staffers Robert Joseph and Stephen Hadley were
involved in the production of the NIPP study, as was William
Schneider, informal adviser and ideological soulmate of Donald
In its most egregious passage, the study
advocates the development and design of a new generation of nuclear
weapons to be used for both deterrent and "wartime roles," ranging
from "deterring weapons of mass destruction (WMD) use by regional
powers" to "preventing catastrophic losses in a conventional war,"
from "providing unique targeting capabilities (deep
underground/biological weapons targets)" to "enhancing US
influence in crises." In short, at a time when a number of prominent
military leaders, like Gen. Lee Butler, the former head of the
Strategic Air Command, have been suggesting the abolition of nuclear
weapons on the grounds that they serve no legitimate military
purpose, George W. Bush is taking advice from a group of unreformed
initiates in the nuclear priesthood who are desperately searching for
ways to relegitimize nuclear weapons.
The unifying vision
behind the Bush doctrine is nuclear unilateralism, the notion that
the United States can and will make its own decisions about the size,
composition and employment of its nuclear arsenal without reference
to arms control agreements or the opinions of other nations. It is a
disastrous doctrine that raises the odds that nuclear weapons will be
used again one day, and as such it demands an immediate and forceful
public response.
It's not as if we haven't been down this
road before. In the 1980s, when Ronald Reagan rode into Washington
with guns blazing, pressing for a massive nuclear buildup and a Star
Wars missile defense system, the international peace movement helped
roll back his nightmare nuclear scenarios and push him toward a
policy of nuclear arms reductions, not mutual annihilation. It will
take that same kind of energy and commitment to stave off Bush's
born-again nuclearism.
Like much of the Western involvement in the former Yugoslavia, the intense and often heated debate in NATO over the possible ill effects of depleted-uranium ammunition largely ignores the people on whom NATO used these weapons. The debate is focused on higher incidence of cancer and leukemia reported by Western troops who served six-month tours of duty in the Balkans. Six Italians, five Belgians, two Dutch, a Portuguese and a Czech have died, while four French soldiers are reported to have developed leukemia.
The former UN administrator for Kosovo, Bernard Kouchner, a doctor and former French health minister, has dismissed the fuss as "a wave of irrationality." But Dr. Zoran Stankovic, a leading Belgrade pathologist who has investigated areas where DU contamination is thought to be most severe (Bosnia, Kosovo and southern Serbia), reports that unexpectedly high cancer rates are appearing in the local population. His main study focused on about 4,000 people who had lived in the Sarajevo suburb of Hadzici, which was heavily exposed to DU shells during the NATO bombing of 1995. "That group developed a large number of malignant diseases," he says. "Four hundred of them have died so far. Our initial suspicion was that there was a link to the effect of depleted uranium."
Stankovic does not claim to have established a link between the malignant illnesses and the use of DU ammunition. But his research adds weight to demands for an international investigation into health risks associated with DU. In Sarajevo, the Bosnian government has formed a working group to investigate what the Europeans call the "Balkan War Syndrome." It has also asked NATO to provide detailed information about the use of DU ammunition.
More than 10,000 rounds were fired in Bosnia and 31,000 in Kosovo, Serbia and Montenegro. Uranium is one of the heaviest metals, which makes it effective in destroying tanks and similar targets.
After retiring from the Senate in 1993, Alan Cranston, who died on New Year's Eve of the new millennium in the home of his son Kim, began a new career that was as important as the one he left behind as a four-term senator from California and majority whip. He embarked on a campaign to seize the opportunity afforded by the end of the cold war to abolish nuclear weapons. His opposition to nuclear weapons was longstanding. He first adopted the cause as president of the United World Federalists in the late 1940s. As a senator, he worked to advance the control and reduction of nuclear arms. In 1984 in a brief run at the presidency, he made the issue the centerpiece of his campaign. After leaving the Senate he worked on the issue first as chairman of the Gorbachev Foundation and then as the president of the Global Security Institute, which he founded. The most important of its accomplishments was to put together, as part of a new coalition of groups called Project Abolition, the Appeal for Responsible Security, Appeal for Responsible Security, which calls for abolition and steps toward that end, and was signed, at Cranston's urging, by such notable people as Paul Nitze, Gen. Charles Horner and President Jimmy Carter. The appeal will be circulated by Project Abolition as the foundation of a wider nuclear abolition campaign in the United States in the months to come.
It was in this work to eliminate nuclear weapons that I got to know him and came to be, I believe I can say, his friend. He possessed a modesty that would have been notable in any human being but was astonishing in an elected politician. On his answering machine he was "Alan," as he was to most who knew him. The human being not only had survived the official, it had come through without any detectable distortion whatever. Self-reference--not to speak of bluster or bragging--was at the zero level, as were all other forms of showmanship. Equally, there was zero variation in his manner toward the small and the great, the scruffy and the expensively suited.
Sometimes I wondered how a four-term senator could have managed this, and in the course of many days of travel and meetings together, I believe I came to understand at least one reason. It wasn't that he underrated himself or failed to appreciate the importance of his position. He had, for instance, a nation-spanning Rolodex and entree at every level of American life, and used these to the hilt in the cause. It was that his concentration, which was intense, was entirely on the work at hand. At every single meeting I attended with him, he made something happen. He passed along news, received news, asked for a further meeting, arranged one for someone else, won support for a project or set a new project in motion--a job for someone, a research organization, an appeal, a television program, a film. He moved as swiftly as he moved quietly. The work was hard, intellectually as well as practically, and there was just no time for wasted motion, blather or nonsense. At meetings he was silent most of the time. He kept so imperturbably still--a gaunt Buddha--that sometimes I thought, "Well, a man of his eminence doesn't have to attend to every last word of every inconsequential meeting"--only to hear him speak up quietly at the end, summing up what had been said, making sense of it and offering suggestions, which usually formed the basis for what was done. Not for nothing had he seven times been elected Senate Democratic whip.
What was true of his manner was true of his mind: It was, even in his 80s, fresh, resilient, receptive, reasonable, sensible, constructive, unburdened by conventional wisdom, unencrusted by habit and crowned with what can only be called wisdom.
The work, which absorbed all his professional life, was reducing nuclear weapons until they were gone. There was never a more practical and effective man than Alan Cranston, and none with a keener or more accurate sense of what was possible in the political world and what was not, yet his opposition to nuclear weapons was above all moral. At an event launching the Appeal for Responsible Security, he said of nuclear deterrence, "This may have been necessary during the cold war; it is not necessary forever. It is not acceptable forever. I say it is unworthy of our nation, unworthy of any nation; it is unworthy of civilization." Rarely in recent American political life have common sense, effectiveness, persistence and vision been combined in one person as they were in him. Nothing can replace him as a friend. As for the work--the force of his example, if we have the strength to follow it, must make good our loss.
Madame Curie's denial of radiation dangers is emblematic of the legacy we now face as America's romance with the atom draws to a close.

You can keep up with hands-on demos, reviews, insights and more from all your favorite Rev3 hosts right here.
Roku-Powered TV's
Roku is best known for its popular streaming set-top box product that lets users stream all kinds of content. Now, the company is getting into the actual television manufacturing business, partnering with TCL and Hisense on a line of new television sets that have the Roku technology baked right into the TV itself. These TV's should be available later this year in the fall and be sure to check out Tekzilla's report on the announcement.
Toyota's Fuel Cell Car Plans
Since the early 2000's, fuel cell-powered cars have gotten plenty of buzz from carmakers as the next big thing in environmentally-conscious vehicles. This year at CES, Toyota unveiled the latest concept car that combines hydrogen and air and emits nothing but water. Sounds pretty good, right? Toyota hopes to have these on the road in 2015, but as Patrick Norton reports, there are some considerable obstacles in the way:

Halloween looms and the supporters of the St. Joseph Bay Humane Society are ready to do the bash – the Bow Wow Bash.
And, in its eighth year, the event has proven to be quite the smash.
"The whole community has gotten behind this event," said Sandi Christy, president of the board of directors for the SJBHS. "It has become a giant masquerade ball.
"We have more sponsors this year than ever before. Attendance has grown every year. It's the adult Halloween. It's about raising money and goodwill."
The event began of humble beginnings.
Part of a day-long celebration of pets and their owners, the Bow Wow Bash was the formal evening partner to Paws in the Park, an informal gathering of dogs, cats and the people that love them.
As Paws in the Park was phased out, the Bow Wow Bash assumed a larger profile, transforming into a Halloween ball – costumes optional but encouraged.
The first year, Christy said, they hoped to raise $20,000 toward an annual budget that eclipses $200,000.
The proceeds of the Bash, 100 percent of which go to the Humane Society each year, came in above expectations, providing fuel for the future.
"Bolstered by the success of the first year we thought we could do this every year," Christy said. "The Humane Society would not be what it is without those 265 people who attended last year and those who attended every year."
As the Humane Society expanded its programs in the community – bringing dogs and cats to the nursing home, the DAWGS in Prison program – the community embraced the organization's biggest fundraiser of the year.
"They have been such a great partner in (our community) for the quality of life programs we have here, the only way to give back is to support their big event," said Ron Reid, director of the Bridge at St. Joe nursing home.
"And it is also another opportunity for myself and my team who go to break the stereotype of a nursing home employee, to dress up in costumes and have fun. It's a fantastic event and we can go out and be part of the community and have a ball."
Community is also the engine that drives the Humane Society, a largely volunteer organization, 365 days a year.
The Humane Society's facility on 10th Street is a mecca for volunteers of all ages and backgrounds that help clean cages, do laundry, feed, walk and socialize with animals, make runs to the vet, animal transports, provide foster homes and animal adoption support.
"We are so blessed at the St. Joseph Bay Humane Society for all the wonderful volunteers," Christy said.
One couple who live in Gulf County part-time spend much of their time here helping out with projects of all kinds around the facility.
"The volunteers they have do an amazing job," said Andy Smith, whose family company, Hannon Insurance, has been a sponsor of the Bow Wow Bash from the outset. "The work they do makes it worthwhile to support them. The facility, which is great for anyone who hasn't been out there, the board, they work hard and do a great job.
"The event is a real blast."
As the blast has grown into a smash a network of locals providing essential support has expanded.
Wylie Petty and his staff from the El Governor Motel "transform" the Centennial Building each year, decorating the building and donating every bit of sweat, time and dollars.
Silent and live auctions offer an array of treats, all donated.
"The donations and people hearing about it have allowed the event to grow so much," Christy said. "We have so much wonderful stuff. It is a challenge just setting it all up."
As in previous years, Jill and Mike Davis are donating a Murder Mystery Dinner for 10 at their house, this year's theme, "Murder in Oz" based on the presumption that the house falling on the Wicked Witch was no accident.
Mary Conroy, the chef behind Gourmet Now, will serve dinner for 10 with wine and liquor provided by Les and Andrea Heard.
Three- and four-night vacations to high-end resorts in Aruba, Curacao and San Juan, Puerto Rico will be on the block.
Jan Sapte has created a lighthouse-themed quilt and Bobby Pollack donated a hand-turned pear wood bowl among the many handcrafted items by local artisans, including local artists Elaine Lerch and Leslie Wentzell.
There will also be jewelry, spa days and paintings among over 200 items that will be auctioned that night.
"It is a great network that has grown," Christy said. "We do solicit items but now I have people who call me. A lot of these people have adopted animals or been to the shelter and they have seen we have a clean, well-managed facility.
"In their own way they want to give back and help. We have a lot of work to do but we are all proud of where we've come to."
In a county where there is a single animal control officer, the Humane Society houses, on average, over 50 dogs and 25-30 cats each day.
"They never stop coming," Christy said.
The Humane Society's budget is quickly eaten up with a mortgage, utilities and the cost of upkeep.
A food program is supported through grants and another grants subsidizes spay and neuter programs in the 32456 zip code, the facility receives donations and recoup adoption fees, but as Christy said, "The costs add up."
And given the constrained state of government budgets, the cities of Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka and the Board of County Commissioners combine to subsidize about one-quarter of the annual budget.
"The Bow Wow Bash supplies a significant portion of our budget," Christy said.

WASHINGTON — If the mixture of spending cuts and tax increases known as the fiscal cliff kicks in just after New Years Day, Kansas doctors would scramble to replace lost income, researchers would worry about dwindling grants and residents statewide would see more taxes drained from their paychecks.
Beyond that, though, state officials and budget watchers in Washington are uncertain how spending cuts would specifically impact Kansas.
Theres not a real way to anticipate or estimate in any accurate way how the cuts will fall, said Shai Akabas, senior policy analyst at the Bipartisan Policy Center, a Washington think tank.
While the budget cuts known as the sequester would be significant and spread around the country, federal officials have some flexibility in how they are actually put into place.
When there was a sequester in the 1980s, Akabas said, chaos ruled the day. As what was then known as the General Accounting Office said at the time: We found widespread confusion among agencies in applying the program, project and activity definitions.
But what is known has officials dependent on federal funds worried enough and the uncertainty only makes it tougher.
Whats known as the fiscal cliff is a series of federal tax increases and spending cuts that will automatically take effect in January 2013. They are automatic because of moves Congress made in years past, in part to push back any decision on the nations deficit.
Now, the drop-dead date Congress wrote into law is a few weeks away, and unless lawmakers and President Barack Obama can agree on an alternative proposal, this set of cuts and tax changes already on the books will automatically take effect.
Overall, it would mean about $400 billion in tax increases, along with about $100 billion in spending reductions, according to the Pew Center on the States, a nonprofit research organization. Economists fear that might raise the unemployment rate to 9 percent or higher and push the nation back into a recession.
The first place Kansans will feel it is in their pocketbook payroll taxes will go up, dividend taxes will go up, said Republican Rep. Mike Pompeo. Well have real Kansans hard-working middle-class Kansans hurting.
Several different taxes will be impacted, including the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts, and the recent reduction in the payroll taxes. All are set to expire.
Because of the way the federal tax code is intertwined with state tax codes, an increase in federal tax revenue can mean an increase in state taxes. In Kansas, personal and corporate taxes are tied to federal tax deductions or credits, which could mean an increase in state tax revenue, according to the Pew Center.
However, the staff of Gov. Sam Brownback is not preparing for the possibility of an increase in state tax revenue because of federal tax policy changes.
We believe lawmakers in Washington will come to an agreement to avoid the effects of the so-called fiscal cliff, said Sherriene Jones-Sontag, Brownbacks press secretary.
Even so, the governor and his Cabinet secretaries are assessing the impact of a reduction in federal funding and are preparing contingency plans should federal funding be reduced or delayed.
Kansas will continue to provide the states essential services, Jones-Sontag said.
The fiscal cliff cuts will come in the form of the automatic budget cuts, which have a direct impact on state budgets; expiration of federal unemployment insurance; and expiration of whats known as the Medicare doc fix, which would dramatically reduce payments to physicians.
Federal Funds Information for States, a Washington-based research organization, said the law requires that the automatic budget cuts totaling more than $100 billion must be divided between defense and non-defense spending, and then between mandatory and non-mandatory programs.
In Kansas, the organization estimates that non-defense federal spending would drop by $61.8 million from fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2013. Thats about a 7 percent cut in the federal grants tracked by the group that are subject to the automatic cuts.
When looking at all federal grants to Kansas those subject to the cuts and those not federal spending to the state would be basically flat, in part because of continued growth in entitlement programs such as Medicaid.
At the University of Kansas, officials are worried about what could be a significant drop in funding from the National Institutes of Health, the nations premiere biomedical research organization. It funnels much of its money to universities and medical schools.
In fiscal 2012, NIH funding tracked to specific states totaled about $22 billion, according to the federal funds research group. That could drop about 8 percent $1.7 billion if the automatic spending cuts kick in.
It would be acutely felt at KU, which in fiscal 2011 received $109 million in NIH funding; if the spending cuts kick it, that would drop about 8 percent, or about $9.1 million. Another $9 million would be lost in funding from other federal scientific or agricultural agencies, according to the university.
Im optimistic that they are going to get to a deal, said Timothy C. Caboni, the universitys vice chancellor for public affairs. The danger is that it really does put at jeopardy our innovation and discovery. And its not just the institution at risk. It puts the regional economy at risk.
Individual physicians across the state also will be scrambling come January because of a separate measure called the Medicare doc fix.
Each year, Congress acts to prevent dramatic reductions in Medicare fees paid to doctors that would otherwise kick in automatically.
If Congress doesnt make changes, Medicare rates would drop by 27 percent next year. Right now, about 450,000 Kansas residents use Medicare, said Jerry Slaughter, executive director of the Kansas Medical Society.
An awful lot of physicians would out of necessity have to re-evaluate how many Medicare patients they can absorb into their practices, Slaughter said.

MY birthday is July 27th and usually by now I would be swimming around in Korn tickets but Ive been living in Japan for a year now. This year I would love a FOLLOW on TWITTER from any member of the band ( A girl can dream, I know...) IT WOULD BE NICE THOUGH cough, cough!! I called this post FOLLOW THE LEADER because it was my first tattoo related to Korn- from my bra strap to my waist...
Korn will be playing in Japan after the new album drops!! I saw the interview that they posted on Facebook and Munky confirmed that they will be stopping in Japan. That's so amazing and it made my day! Just thought I'd Blah-G about it \m/ Keep Bangin \m/
Okay, So I see the tour dates have been updated and still no Japan! If you guys/gals see Tokyo or Yokohama Japan on the list, PLEASE PLEASE overload my inbox or reply to this blog to let me know. It would suck if they didn't come because I'm going through MAAAJoR concert withdrawals ! Wouldn't it be cool to see how Japan rocks out to Korn? This will be my first overseas...
I just graduated one school and ready for the next. I have a break until September so I'm ready to travel this Summer. I've been listening to a lot of Incubus lately so that means I miss Cali lol I will be in Hollywood for a week then San Diego for the rest of the Summer.

American Apparel Unisex Fitted Tee Gold
Geisha (Geigi) are traditional, female Japanese entertainers, whose skills include performing various Japanese arts, such as classical music and dance. Contrary to popular opinion and stereotypes, geisha are not prostitutes and do not engage in sexual activity as part of their job. Historically they fulfilled a role similar to that of entertainers.-----There remains some confusion, even within Japan, about the nature of the geisha profession. Geisha are frequently depicted as expensive prostitutes in Western popular culture. Geisha are entertainers, their purpose being to entertain their customer, be it by reciting verse, playing musical instruments, or engaging in light conversation. Geisha engagements may include flirting with men and playful innuendos; however, clients know that nothing more can be expected. In a social style that is uniquely Japanese, men are amused by the illusion of that which is never to be. Geisha do not engage in paid sex with clients.

Kosher Side Dishes
|Fast, Fabulous Potato Latkes In-A-Hurry
by KosherEye.com
Where is it written that freshly grated potatoes are the only way to make great potato latkes? For those of us who are short on time but love the taste of these fried Hanukkah treats, fear not...we have a solution that will produce great latkes in a fraction of the time. We use frozen hash brown potatoes, add some extra ingredients and, presto, crispy, golden, yummy latkes.
1 16-ounce bag Alexia Hash Brown Potatoes, defrosted if frozen*
Squeeze the excess moisture from the defrosted potatoes.
Using a spoon, mix the first 6 ingredients together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.
Pour about 1/4 inch of oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the oil; flatten slightly with the back of the spoon. When the first side is brown and crispy, turn over and brown the other side. Remove the browned latkes with a slotted spatula to a platter or large baking sheet pan lined with paper towels to drain. Continue frying, and adding additional oil with each batch, until done.
Serve warm with homemade apple sauce, sour cream with chives, smoked salmon & cream cheese, or the topping of your choice.
Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese
Yield: Makes about 12 large latkes or 24 small ones.
*We added very little salt because Alexia potatoes are pre–seasoned. We did add additional pepper.
Recipes: Side Dishes, Potato Latkes, Parve (Dairy Toppings), Kosher
