Drowning On Panama City Beach
On July 2, 2012, officers from the Panama City Beach Police Department responded to a drowning located beach-side behind Hooters on Front Beach Road.
On scene, officers were notified that the victim, Mr. Tainarien Elliott, from New Albany, Mississippi, had entered the water to save another friend of his. While in the water he began to struggle and he himself got caught in the rip current.
At the time, Mr. Elliott could not be located and a collaborated search was conducted between the Panama City Beach Police Department, the Bay County Sheriff's Office, and the U.S. coast Guard.
At about 7:30 a.m., on July 4, 2012, Mr. Elliott was recovered along the shoreline, in the area of 13000 block of Oleander Drive, behind Beach Access 47. The Medical Examiner's Office took jurisdiction.

A Word From Your Editor
By Gmandiddy
It has been a busy past few weeks, well from my perspective. I am proud to announce a new Interactive Article, which involves a certain URPG Member dying and a list of clues scattered around URPG from the killer. Without further or do, let's get the show on the road.
The Buzz
By SLCalamity
Hey guys, welcome to WhatsOn@URPG, just summing up what events are coming up for the URPG, just in case you've missed anything after a while away, or just missed out on something.
National Park Halloween Event
The National Park Halloween Event is almost upon us! Starting on the 1st of September, you will have the chance to travel down the dark and murky caves in an attempt to find a team of missing scouts that vanished several days ago. Along the way, you can grab fabulous prizes such as apricots (which can be converted into special Parkballs) and items which give you points! Just a reminder: last event at Christmas '10, there were prizes given out to all participants, as well as people with the fastest finish time and the most points! All you need is to buy a Scarecrow Mask (and possibly other event items, to help you out) at the Park Shop. Although you cannot capture encountered Pokémon, it doesn't rule out the possibility of them being available as prizes!
It does sound fabulous, and the focus is on progression rather than super-detailed posts, so even the most inexperienced of rangers can try out the park for the first time! Good luck, and I look forward to meeting you in the caverns!
Master and Apprentice Program II: REBOOT
Although the second incarnation of the Master and Apprentice Program II started several weeks ago, the recent absence of Alaska has led to it being taken over by our very own WTP. The thread, located here requires any previous pairings to re-register. Any newcomers to the URPG are seriously encouraged to visit the thread and be paired up with a master. The last one was a huge success for the most part, even concluding with a tournament between the newer members. It really is worth a try, and helped me improve when I went through it. God knows what I would've turned out like if I ignored it.
Battle Factory Round 2
Chris is back from holiday, and you have just a few days to complete your match ups if you haven't done so already. Find your match-ups in this thread. On that note, congratulations to Mubz, Xali, Bumblebee, Syn, TE, ST, Derian, Pidge, FD and anyone else who may have won their battles since then. I wish you all luck in future rounds, and apologies to anyone who didn't make it through. Better luck in future tournaments.
Summer Writing Contest 2011
Voting for the Summer Writing Contest has begun, and I recommend you start reading for a nice cash prize. Just a reminder that you need to give a brief synopsis of the stories you're gonna vote for - it's not a popularity contest! The winner will receive a legendary and $10000, while second gets a Complex ranked mon and $5000! Good luck to all participants.
Grand Festival 2011
Be sure to send your moves for the Grand Festival! The prizes are great as an incentive to win, so make sure that you don't forget! Can you be contest master 2011?

Each week, besides the submissions from our employees for the Comics section of the URPG Times, we also welcome submissions from the community! Remember, I pay $1,500 for each submission usually. The amount paid might be adjusted accordingly based on your comic and permanent employees will be paid slightly higher. You don't have to be a professional as well; the only criteria is for it to be funny! PM comic submissions to me, Gmandiddy

36 year old man | Buckeye, AZ, USA | Seeking women 25-36 within 50 miles
Not shoveling snow
Well, I'll give 'er another go; new year, new outlook! I'm originally from MN; been living in AZ for 12 years now. I'm a very simple person; it's the little things in life. Looking for the same; I like being active outdoors, entertaining/BBQing at my house. Looking for someone to meet, get to know, and see where it goes. I'd like to meet someone who can introduce me to new experiences, share daily experiences with me and live life You can find me on any afternoon on my Harley, or in the desert on my quad, or teeing off the 1st hole of a golf course; I enjoy being outside with the wind in my face!. I tend to be busy with my job, but am ready to pursue a relationship. I know I have more to share, if you want to know, don't hesitate to ask. I think it's hard to sit here and talk about myself. I think if you give too much away here, you won't have much to talk about; the "getting to know you" process isn't as fun. You can't always believe what you read...A lot of these profiles sound alike - "I like to have fun, I want someone to make me laugh"; Who doesn't?? Just looking for that down-to-earth girl who wants to get to know me as much as I want to get to know them.

What do you think happens when you leave your dinner unattended in a safari park?
Have you ever hosted a raucous dinner party where the room is left demolished after a chaotic night of eating and drinking? Take that situation, swap the guests for wild vultures and your dining room for a national park and this video captures that scene pretty perfectly. In perhaps one of the best videos we've all seen for a long time, artist Greta Alfaro has placed what looks like a Thanksgiving dinner complete with cutlery, plates, tablecloth – you name it – in the middle of a safari park and set up a camera to record the action. The suspense is pretty intense, you know what's coming, but when it does, it is surprisingly savage.

Parsley Essential Oil
Aromatic Description: Herbacous, somewhat woody aroma.
Parsley Oil Uses: Amenorrhea, arthritis, cellulites, cystitis, frigidity, griping pains, indigestion, rheumatism, toxic build-up. [Julia Lawless, The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Essential Oils (Rockport, MA: Element Books, 1995), 60-65.]

Safety Information: Parsley Oil is hepatotoxic (toxic to the liver). It is also an abortifacient (can induce abortions). Research that Tisserand refers to indicates that Parsley Oilhas a strong abortifacient action. It should be used with extreme caution and avoided with and around pregnant women. Tisserand also indicates that Parlsey Oil may be a skin irritant. [Robert Tisserand, Essential Oil Safety (United Kingdom: Churchill Livingstone, 1995), 80, 157-59.]
Important Notes: The essential oil information provided within the Essential Oil Properties & Profiles area is intended for educational purposes only. This data is not considered complete and is not guaranteed to be accurate. The oil photos are intended to represent the typical and approximate color of each essential oil. However, oil color can vary based on harvesting, distillation and other factors. Profiles for several absolutes are included within the directory, and are denoted as such.
General Safety Information: Do not take any oils internally and do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated essences onto the skin without advanced essential oil knowledge or consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children.

CRANSTONŌĆöProvidenceŌĆÖs Poverty Institute hosted ŌĆ£Budget Rhode Map,ŌĆØ a discussion and lecture event sponsored by local non-profits to discuss the condition of the state and nationŌĆÖs budget challenges. The conference was attended by various state representatives including Sen. Spencer Dickinson and representatives Teresa Tanzi and Donna Walsh.
The first speaker, Jon Shure, Deputy Director of the Center on Budget and Policy PrioritiesŌĆÖ State Fiscal Project presented a discussion titled ŌĆ£The State of State BudgetsŌĆØ and said that ŌĆ£in a perfect worldŌĆØ state leaders would raise the income tax in a time of recession, not the sales tax. The proposed increase in the sales tax would adversely affect the poor who spend more of their income on items that would be taxed. But Shure said that he would still support it if it was the only way to raise revenue.
According to Governor Chafee, the plan would raise $89 million in new revenue that state-funded programs need in order to serve Rhode Islanders. Shure also described how, contrary to popular opinion, states that raised taxes in a recession performed economically better because they made necessary investments.
PEACE DALE--In 1982, South Kingstown thought it freed itself of the cannibalistic murderer who was sentenced to jail for killing 5-year-old Jason Foreman in 1975, but Michael Woodmansee would not remain behind bars forever.
SOUTH KINGSTOWNŌĆōThe Economic Development Committee met last Thursday, March 3 to discuss the new property tax treaty drafted by the town.
The ŌĆśTax Exemption and Stabilization ProgramŌĆÖ was received by the council as a troubling example of miscommunication.
SOUTH KINGSTOWNŌĆōSouth Kingstown state representatives recently met with the Coastal Resources Management Council to discuss potential solutions to the coastal erosion along Matunuck Town Beach.
Sen. V. Susan Sosnowski, D-Dist. 37 South Kingstown, New Shoreham and Rep. Donna M. Walsh, D-Dist. 36, Charlestown, New Shoreham, South Kingstown, Westerly, along with town council president Ella Whaley met with Grover Fugate, the executive director of the Coastal Resources Management Council and other members of the CRMC.
South Kingstown reporter Kathleen McKiernan would like to hear from Narragansett Times readers and community members who may have information on the Michael Woodmansee murder case and are willing to be interviewed. Please contact her by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 789-9744 ex. 138.
PEACE DALE ŌĆō To help those in need during these economic times, the South Kingstown TeacherŌĆÖs Union held its annual Have a Heart Fundraiser last month to support the local community.
The elementary school teachers, including West Kingston, Peace Dale, Matunuck, Wakefield and the Hazard Preschool raised $1,621 for the Johnnycake Center.
Editors note: Will Wilson first contributed a comic strip, called Brothers Watt, to The Narragansett Times back in 2005. He is back with a new and different take on Matunuck, Jamestown, Block Island and life in general.
WAKEFIELDŌĆōLocal strip comic cartoonist Will Wilson has just released his second book entitled, Ordinary Bill, Pretending to Be Adults, and is scheduled to appear at Sweet Cakes Bakery in Peacedale this Sunday, March 6 from 2 to 4 p.m. for a book signing. I recently sat down at a local pub with this young artist to discuss life in the cartoon world.
ŌĆ£We can do this either way,ŌĆØ said the tall, wiry redheaded Wilson, referring to the copious amount of beer we would or would not consume in the course of our meeting. I could tell by his tone that he was serious and if I had been up for it we may have potentially found ourselves confused and in Mexico the following morning.
NARRAGANETTŌĆōNo Rhode Island community was entirely immune from the housing bubble and current foreclosure crisis. HousingWorks RI, a non-profit that supports dedicating a stream of funding for affordable housing around the state, released its second annual special report on foreclosures in Rhode Island. The report looks at the number of foreclosures from January 2009 through December 2010 in each of Rhode IslandŌĆÖs 39 cities and towns and its impacts.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN ŌĆō The Planning Board held a work shop session Tuesday night, focusing on the comprehensive plan and wind energy conversion system updates.
The comprehensive plan is an update to the community Plan developed in July 1992 with approval by the State of Rhode Island on March 11, 1996. South Kingstown has routinely amended the Comprehensive Community Plan as warranted. This update includes certain elements mandated by state regulation, including land use, housing, economic development, natural and cultural resources, services and facilities and open space and recreation.
NARRAGANSETTŌĆōThe Harbor Management committee met to discuss an impending public meeting with CRMC on March 14 regarding aquaculture permits in Pt. Judith Pond.
But the main agenda item was to listen to a presentation from Save The Bay regarding a scallop restoration program in Pt. Judith Pond the non-profit has worked on since 2007.

The Heat movie review by Arch Campbell
June 27, 2013 - 06:03 pm
Decrease Increase Text size
The mismatched buddy cop comedy gets a kick in the backside from Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy as 'The Heat' - Sandra's uptight while McCarthy's a mess who comes from a mess.
McCarthy ad libs some of the raunchiest lines ever recorded as Bullock gasps
The Heat takes the same old plot and makes it bubble thanks to great chemistry and foul, funny and fearless.

Attention all non-child molestors, child-rapists, weirdos, mouth-breathers, over-handsy-types, pocket self-touchers, and other non-freaks who happen to coach sports. Now would be a good time to come forward to defend your profession.
Is "I'm a college sports assistant coach" about to become the new "meet me in the rectory" in the pantheon of uber-creepy phrases?
Syracuse has fired Jim Boeheim's bff Bernie Fine who is accused of being a creepy creepy creepy sex abuser of boys. His wife isn't much better, apparently. She reportedly had a sexual relationship with one of her husband's alleged victims.
Christ, people. I know it snows a lot in Syracuse, but there's got to be more to do in the winter than wax poetically about Billy Owens and have unhealthy-to-illegal sex rings…right?

Barrow Kill One club set to close
Last updated at 13:43, Monday, 24 December 2012
THERE is virtually no hope a Barrow working men's club will be saved from closure, a committee member has said.
THERE is virtually no hope a Barrow working men's club will be saved from closure, a committee member has said.
The Evening Mail reported last month how the premises of the British Workman's Club, known as the Kill One, had been put up for sale.
Committee member Colin Park said
despite meeting to discuss how the club could be saved, the committee had few realistic ideas for rescuing it from closure.
Initial reports said brewery Carlsberg had put the premises up for sale due to poor beer sales.
However, Carlsberg has since revealed it is only one of a number of creditors owed a "substantial amount of money" by the club.
The creditors have since appointed
receivers to put it on the market.
On Sunday the committee is holding a meeting to see if there is any way the club can be rescued.
Mr Park said an idea had been mooted for members to try to buy the club but he was doubtful they would be able to raise the money.
"It has got to the state now where I really don't think anything anyone says or does is going to help really," he said.
Although there are around 300 members of the club, many of them were only very occasional visitors and it had struggled to make money.
Bookings for events at the club have been honoured for the rest of the year, but
those scheduled for 2013 have been
The darts, snooker and card playing leagues were looking for alternative
venues to complete their seasons, Mr Park added.
If the premises were sold he did not believe the Duke Street club, which has moved venues on a number of occasions in the past, would survive.
Carlsberg spokeswoman Joanna Dring said the company had made a move, along with other creditors, to appoint receivers to take over the club.
However, she would not reveal the names of the other creditors or the name of the receivers.
She said: "Carlsberg UK does not own the British Workman's Club in Barrow and therefore has not put the property on the market.
"Instead, Carlsberg UK, along with a number of other creditors to the club, is owed a substantial amount of money, and the decision was made to appoint receivers to market the club in an attempt to save the business.
"This is an attempt to save the club, because from our point of view the last thing we want to happen is for pubs or clubs or anyone to close down."

Have your say
Bit disingenuous of you that Jan. would you rather other clubs just sat back and let the kill one close without offering a service? The engineers club has been very close to closing as well don't forget. It's a sad fact that not all the clubs will survive and the last thing the town needs is for the few surviving clubs to not welcome those that have been displaced from their club.
If the kill one does close, and I hope it doesn't, the engineers is available for the lads and lasses. What would you rather was said? Don't come to the engineers because your not wanted?
Cor blimey !!!! Vulture or what?? It hasn't closed and hopefully it wont, lets try and support The Kill One and get it back on an even keel. Far too many traditional pubs and clubs are closing, it's so sad to see. Good luck Kill One I hope you get through this.

What is the "Build the Future" Campaign?
"Build the Future" is a 36-hour online fundraising campaign. It's an opportunity for alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff and friends to show their support for academics, athletics and every program in between. Our goal for this campaign is to raise $100,000.
Last year, we set out to raise $75,000 in honor of our 75th anniversary, and our generous alumni, students, faculty, staff, and friends exceeding our expectations by giving over $90,000 to the Cal Poly Pomona programs that meant the most to them!
How does it work?
Any individual or business can make a gift to any area on campus or to the area of greatest need. There is no maximum gift. All donations are tax deductible.
Can I send in a gift by phone or mail?
In order for your gift to count toward the "Build the Future" campaign, it must be made online from 9 a.m. October 9 to 9 p.m. October 10. Of course, this isn't the only opportunity to give to Cal Poly Pomona. Outside of the "Build the Future" campaign, there are many other ways to support Cal Poly Pomona.
Do you accept recurring gifts?
You can make a recurring gift online at www.give2cpp.com. Please note the initial payment must be made from 9 am October 9 to 9 pm October 10 to count toward the "Build the Future" campaign.
How can I help get the word out?
We will be updating our progress on this website, through email and on Facebook. Please forward or share all of our updates to help spread the word!

This collection documents the hits of country music icon Buck Owens as he defined the Bakersfield sound and became a major architect of west coast country overall.
Buck Owens's role as co-host of Hee Haw hokum was imprinted so strongly on the public's consciousness that it tends to overshadow his musical legacy. As this set of chart-toppers attests, no country artist dominated the early-to-mid 1960s like the Bard of Bakersfield. His twisted, elongated syllables and twangy interplay with guitarist Don Rich put a signature stamp on material ranging from the uptempo "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail"--a pop crossover smash as well--to the heartfelt balladry of "Together Again" and "Only You (Can Break My Heart)." A late '80s revival of "Streets of Bakersfield" in duet with Dwight Yoakam, Owens's leading disciple, put Buck back atop the charts. Liner testimonials from Chris Isaak and ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons attest to the reach of his influence, while his breakthrough hit, "Act Naturally," inspired a popular cover (on the Help! album) by the Beatles. --Don McLeese

You could call it the AAP effect. Everyone with electoral ambitions is now coming out with apps and telemarketing tools to attract the smart and mobile voter, which explains why so many politicians are handing out laptops and taking to Twitter and YouTube. Narendra Modi has set the pace, but it's now raining apps and other downloads. Some examples:
Spoiler alert: Usually means to prematurely reveal the ending of a movie or book, but has now become a useful app to warn of the impending arrival of a potential rival in the electoral game. Most visible in Gujarat, where Modi was alerted on his smartphone about the arrival of Arvind Kejriwal in his state. Preventive measures were taken, including access being denied to the CM's office. The AAP app went viral — some would even say virulent. It has definitely raised the electoral bar, or lathi, as was evident in TV shots of the resulting mayhem.
The Ashutosh app: The tables have turned, or rather, the chairs. The photo of the AAP leader trying to ward off a chair flung at him from the BJP side of the police barricade during last week's confrontation became a sensation on Twitter and generated numerous memes, including comparisons with Rajnikanth. From being a journalist who covered such events to being imbedded in them is some journey, relayed to us minute by minute on his Twitter account which never stops — even while he is being grilled by the cops. Complaining of being beaten back and blue via bluetooth is a bit much.
Finding NaMo: He's got the entire online office suite, from Smart Namo (an android smartphone made by a Chinese company called Smart Namo Ltd), to Modi apps, the official website and NaMo's Pocket Book, which comes with an image of Modi in front of Rashtrapati Bhavan — which means that either Google Maps got the wrong address for the PM's residence or Modi's getting back at Pranab Mukherjee for ignoring Gujarat while he was finance minister. The ultimate weapon in Modi's online arsenal is the Modi272 game where you win by defeating enemies like corruption and other obstacles that look strangely familiar – and familial. The top score on the Namometre so far is just short of 200.

The judge in a $5 million class action lawsuit against the National Football League ruled on February 28 that plaintiffs will have at least an extra 60 days to consider accepting a settlement offer from the league. The plaintiffs' attorney called the ruling a "big win for the fans" of the NFL.
The plaintiffs all planned to attend Super Bowl XLV, held in Dallas, Texas in early February. Despite having valid tickets, around 2,500 people were affected by seating problems during the game. Some people were diverted to seats much further away than what they paid for, or were taken to rooms to watch the game on TV. Some people complained that the seats they were given were not properly put together, with loose bolts and other problems.
Many of the disappointed fans joined together to file a class-action suit against the league and the host team, the Dallas Cowboys. The NFL has offered to money and other items, including tickets, to the fans in an attempt to settle. The February 28 ruling, delivered in U.S. District Court in Dallas, gives the individual plaintiffs more time to consider whether to accept the offer or continue in the lawsuit. The judge also ordered the NFL to provide more information about the terms of its settlement offers.
In an article in USA TODAY, the attorney for the plaintiffs praised the ruling. In a statement, he said the offers do not come close to compensating the fans under Texas law. He said the league is acting too tough in negotiations, which this ruling would help relieve. Ironically, the attorney attended the Super Bowl himself, but his seats were not affected.

But Cozart is really, really good I feel. I know his stick isn't great (not terrible either), but is there a chance people are underestimating his glove? How good is it?

Saddle and harness makers banner, Portland, 1841
Contributed by Maine Historical Society
As part of a Triennial Festival in Portland in October 1841, various artisan groups of the Maine Charitable Mechanic Association created painted linen banners that they carried in a parade. The banners promoted the work of skilled artisans and celebrated civic pride.
The Saddle and Harness Makers banner reads "Saddle us not with bad debts Harness us not with evil habits" on one side and "May our Carriage ever be Upright. God Speed the Plough" on the other side.
William Capen Jr., a member of the Charitable Mechanic group, painted the banner.

The winning entries of the open and student categories of the 23rd Chinese Poetry Writing Competition, organised by the Hong Kong Public Libraries (HKPL) of Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD), showed the writers' creativity in Chinese classical poetry on topics ranging from nature and daily life to personal feelings.
Mr Chau Kai-chau's outstanding seven-character regulated poem was the winner in the open category while Mr Liu Han-qing, a student from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, was awarded first prize in the student category. Their distinctive poems focused on dentures and Laoshan Mountain respectively.
Other winning works also reflected a variety of topics including hiking, boating, the weather and its seasons, ice-cream in summer, a disaster at sea and caring scavengers.
Speaking at the prize presentation ceremony held today (September 26) at the Hong Kong Central Library (HKCL), the Assistant Director of Leisure and Cultural Services (Libraries and Development), Mr Lee Yuk-man, pointed out that classical Chinese poetry is highly regarded, with many treasures of classical Chinese literature still recited today.
Mr Lee said that to promote greater interest and appreciation of Chinese poetry and writing the HKPL has developed a collection of Chinese literary works and since 1991 has organised the annual poetry competition.
A series of tie-in talks was also held to promote writing and appreciation of rhyming literature in Chinese, he added.
The adjudicators for this year's competition were Professor Ho Man-wui, Professor Chow Sik-fuk, Professor Chan Chi-ching, Professor Wong Kwan-io and Professor Lau Wai-lam.
More than 1 200 entries were received in the competition. Participants used either five-character regulated poetry or seven-character regulated poetry to showcase their creativity, with topics ranging from descriptions of nature, travel experiences and day-to-day life to personal feelings.
The competition consisted of the student category and the open category, each with a First Prize, Second Prize, Third Prize, five Merit Prizes and two Special Prizes. The winners' lists are as follows:

Retirement Contract — Do You Have a Retirement Contract?
Having a retirement contract should be of utmost importance to anyone desiring to retire at some point in their life. If you plan on working until you die at the workplace, a retirement contract isn't for you.
What does a retirement contract do for you? Probably the most important answer is a retirement contract is your tool to guaranteed income to meet your retirement needs.
The idea is to have a retirement plan or retirement strategy in place that includes guaranteed income. Creating a retirement contract would be the umbrella tool that fits all the pieces together.
Having a retirement contract shouldn't sound strange especially when you consider all of the contracts you currently have in place. Start with your employment. You are under contract.
How about that house you live in? It has an insurance policy to cover fire, theft and other damages and hazards. That automobile you drive is covered under a contract with an auto insurance company.
I think you grasp the idea. You are already knee deep in contracts. Adding a retirement contract should not pose a burden.
Several paragraphs ago I mentioned your retirement contract is your tool to guaranteed income to meet your retirement needs. How can you guarantee your income?
The answer is annuities. Stocks, mutual funds, I Savings Bonds, TIPS, and all other forms of investments DO NOT guarantee income. They produce income and produce a bushel basket full but they cannot guarantee income. Only an annuity has that power.
Given that is true, what provisions should you look for in an annuity? Start with a no loss of principal on plan contributions guarantee. An excellent annuity will have this guarantee.
Look at an annuity that produces returns that have the ability to beat inflation and provide a guaranteed minimum income. Not all annuities are created equal in this arena so look at the fine print.
You also want the peace of mind in knowing your annuity will give you an income for life that you and your spouse cannot outlive. You do not want to be 85 and broke. An annuity will not let that happen.
And, if you elect a fixed indexed annuity you want a contract that provides a very high cap rate or no cap rate at all in order to participate in the growth rate of the investment side of the annuity. A higher participation means a higher return.
Be sure your annuity has minimum fees. Generally speaking that means shying away from variable annuities. While the upside with a variable annuity is high so are the fees and costs.
Think of it as if you are an NFL team. You have players under contract but they aren't performing. You cut them from your roster because their contract allows you to move them off your team and replace them with players who will perform.
Your investment assets should all be under contract. If they aren't producing acceptable income or have lost their potential to provide an acceptable level of income, cut them. Your retirement contract allows you this privilege.
Your retirement contract also allows you to replace them with investments that will perform. That is how you put an annuity on your team. Your retirement contract not only allows you this power but it beefs up your income team with players that will perform.

We all know the value of
. What types do you engage in? What benefits have you seen?
Or does your routine consist of lifting your t.v.'s remote control and/or walking back and forth to the refrigerator?
My favorite is using my Power Rider for at least a half hour while listening to itunes. It does take a little self-discipline to do this regularly.

Monday through Friday
routine (7:00-9:00 a.m.):
1. 2000 rows on Precor rowing machine (while watching recording of previous night's Nightly Business Report)
2. 4
s with Total Tiger abdomen machine, 75 repetitions each
3. 6
s on Nordic Flex Gold--3
s for legs (75 or 150 repetitions); 3
s for arms (150 repetitions). The Flex Gold is no longer sold, but mine still works very well--it is an excellent isokinetic strength training device.
4. 1500 steps on Nordic Ladder-Climber
5. 40 curls of 35 pound dumb-bell, left, right, and both arms
Also, I ride my titanium-frame, 27-speed, mountain bike on Tuesdays and Fridays; this helps to lower blood pressure.

Interval training. Example start with 5 minute warmup. run 1 min to 2 min as fast as I can, then do a 2 minute walk...repeat 9 times or so. Then end with a cool down walk or light jog.

I play tennis. It combines various stressors on my body and doesn't feel like "
At times there will be rallies where peak acceleration is needed, I get out in the sun and enjoy that too.
You have to coordinate yourself, use your eyes to monitor and concentrate on the ball. It keeps the mind active and attention is used throughout the match which last at least an hour and a half and much the time being over 2 hours. I play no matter the heat or humidity which is in the nineties at times.
A great sport, if you are not conditioned then 'let' a few balls go by now and then till you get better and used to it.

Dr Mercola espouses a form of HIIT he calls the Peak 8's. He originally used a stat bike but now uses an eliptical trainer. Essentially it's 30 seconds of activity so severe it takes the heart to its maximum, followed by 90 seconds active rest, for a total of eight sprints and rest periods. He claims the workout stimulates large amounts of Growth Hormone release. I do the workout on a treadmill, set at 9% grade and 7 minutes per mile pace. Using the 220 minus age formula, my maximum heart rate would be 165. Wearing a heart rate monitor is shows by the end of each sprint my heart rate is between 160 and 170. I've done this workout 2-3 times a week for the past two years. Originally I was working at 5% grade, 12 minutes per mile pace. But as the workouts became easier I gradually increased incline and speed.
The goal is to get to the point that the last 5 seconds are torture, that you couldn't possibly continue even one second over the 30 second sprint.
My treadmill is on its last legs. My wife found a newish eliptical trainer at a garage sale so I plan to try that for a while. Dr Mercola says the eliptical is much better than my treadmill for these HIIT workouts. But I'm at the age where I don't like Changes so this will be an experiment.

During good times I wake up early and do 15 to 30 minutes of stretching several times a week.
I try to lift weights twice a week. I'm currently doing a full body routine with periodization that cycles between higher rep counts with lighter weights for several weeks followed by more aggressive, heavier weight with more sets of fewer reps.
My knees are in what I hope is a recovery phase, so I'm only doing very light occasional running. Instead I hike the local foot hills twice a week. Typically its a 6 to 8 mile hike at a quick pace with 800 to 1600ft of elevation gain. I used to hike up then run down, but that started causing knee pain after a basketball injury and I'm rethinking whether I need to dust off my mountain bike.
I say during good times because as it usually turns out, the periods when work is the most stressful and I need it the most, that's when can't get up early because I'm short on sleep and don't have the time to get to the gym.

I am an x-triathlete who can no longer run. I ride a trainer (regular bike on a stand) for 80 min. every morning (watching TV) and ride a racing, carbon fiber bike on the weekends: 40-60/day. Lift light weights in the winter, swim in the summer, and ride more outside in the summer. I am in my my-60s.

After a decade of moving from one rented premise to another, members of the Sai Indian spiritual movement in Uganda have finally constructed a centre of their own.
The members of the movement account for more than half of all Indian investments in Uganda.
The Sai Indians are followers of renowned Indian spiritual leader Ašri Sathya Sai Baba. He was a Guru, spiritual leader,mystic, composer, choreograher, poet, author, orator philanthropist and educator born in south India in 1926.
Before his death in 2011, Baba made his maiden and only visit outside India to Uganda in 1968, a reason he enjoys a large following of anatives to date.
The multi-million centre located off Mawanda road in Kampala becomes the coordinating centre of all activities of the Sai community in Uganda who number about 100.
Centre activities include the study of teachings of Baba and all other religions, devotional singing, spiritual meditation and charity to community.
In Uganda, the community is running a number of orphanages.
The Centre becomes one of over 144 Baba centers in 126 countries throughout the world. The movement also runs a network of hospitals, clinics and schools often free in126 countries.
The inauguration of the Centre saw Indian girls perform traditional dances and poems. Traditional Indian snacks were also in plenty.
The center is adorned with holy ash and other small objects such as rings, necklaces, and watches blessed by Baba along with reports of his miraculous healings.
Minister of Tourism Maria Mutagmba was slated to be chief guest at the inauguration but could not attend due to sudden government duties she had to handle in Jinja district, according to centre officials.

Inside the TED backpack of goodies: a pair of beautifully hand-painted Toms shoes, and a lined book with all of the TED speaker bios on one side and room to jot down "big ideas," quotes, and "other wisebits" on the other. Teresa Novellino
At the TED 2013 conference that begins tomorrow in Long Beach, California, there's a planned schedule of TED Talks for its A-list attendees, but at TEDActive, the companion event two hours away in Palm Springs, anything might go down at any moment.
Someone might erect a "cardboard city" (it's happened) or give a speech about poverty or start analyzing a problem or painting or singing. There, even more "young wise and undiscovered" hopefuls that you haven't heard of—yet— will listen to the live feed of the TED Talks and then ruminate on and riff off the ideas expressed therein at a gathering that encourages the unexpected, says Kelly Stoetzel, director of content for TED and co-host of TEDActive.
"A big part of it is attendees creating pop-up experiences around the place," Stoetzel says of TEDActive, which will include indoor spaces, such as a theater and creative tinkering lab, and outdoor areas with tents."We've got a mic that will be live at all times, and you can give any kind of talk, performance or rant."
Sounded great to us. As Upstart Business Journal's editor on the scene, I registered early, on Sunday, and was handed a TED backpack of goodies, a pair of beautifully hand-painted Toms shoes, and a lined book with all of the TED speaker bios on one side and room to jot down "big ideas," quotes, and "other wisebits" on the other.
The speakers include names you know, like SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk and U2 frontman and activist Bono, and some you may not like Beardyman, a physicist and science communicator who is pictured with a plastic wig made of green snakeheads. Also in the latter category, perhaps, is Jack Andraka, who at 15, has created a cheaper, more sensitive cancer detector and Canadian teenage scientists Miranda Wang and Jeanny Yao, who have found a way to break down the compounds found in flexible plastics.
Although TEDActive festivities don't really get started until a "welcome home party" and late-night campfire performance by Jill Sobule tonight, there's already a vibe of anticipation at the La Quinta Resort, where casitas dot a property with stunning mountain views and a hint of spontaneity to come like, a guy playing guitar in the parking lot, all impromptu.
From what the organizers say, it will be a bit like college and kind of like summer camp: most of the official "schedule" involves listening to the TED Talks, which are designed to inspire discussions during breaks, as well as late-night talks around fires and fire pits. Attendees take the stage for 2 to 9 minutes as part of TEDYou, based on the idea that attendees are often as interesting as the speakers. For the first time, TEDActive will livestream today's TEDYou: SkillShare Edition talks for free to the public on Tedactive.com beginning at 1:30 pm PT.
Past TED fellows are taking over three houses on the property to host discussions and gatherings. There will also be creative activities, some led by artists who were invited to join, and some by attendees themselves, with much of it happening spontaneously.
This year, the TEDActive crowd, much like its speaker lineup, will be more international than in past years. There will be 750 attendees from 70 countries, which is up from 39 countries last year. TEDActive has also drawn a younger crowd this year, meaning a greater span of ages. As for fields, they run the gamut, Stoetzel says. More than 60 are educators, many attendees are entrepreneurs in business or involved in social or non-profit enterprises and others are involved in design or creative fields.
Seating in the theater to watch the talks live is intentionally made to keep it "cozy and fun" and you can sit on couches, chairs or beanbag chairs, and even lay down and watch the talks, Stoetzel says. I'll be checking it out from a blogger's alley for writers but the beanbag chairs will beckon as will a lab "where you can tinker and make things," including art, music, t-shirts. After all, it's meant to be a fully immersive experience with attendees taking over most of the La Quinta property and most people staying at the hotel itself, creating a campus kind of environment where it would be hard not to get drawn in for the debates and the fun.
"Rest up before you get there, because it's really exhausting," Stoetzel said.
All this week, Upstart Business Journal's Teresa Novellino is reporting from Palm Springs, California where she's covering both TEDActive and eTail West.
After getting an MA in journalism from Syracuse University, Teresa worked as a general assignment newspaper reporter—general on purpose because besides the usual city hall and police articles, there was the chance to fly an F-18 with the Blue Angels and tag along with bounty hunters on a stakeout—all good preparation for covering entrepreneurs.

Daryl Wasano honored for years of coaching
Manager of Oceanside's 2001 Little League World Series team enters Oceanside High Hall of Fame
He grew up in Hawaii, hitting rocks with a stick, falling in love with baseball as he watched intently as his father coached his older brother in Little League. Above all, Daryl Wasano paid close attention to the fundamentals his father drilled into those young players.
Wasano would go on and play baseball, eventually making the Oceanside High team. On Saturday morning, Nov. 2, in the Wally Molifua Gym at 1 Pirate Cove Way, Wasano, a 1973 graduate, will be inducted into the Oceanside High School Hall of Fame.
"I'm definitely honored that I'm being inducted," Wasano said recently. "I'm humbled by the experience. I'm blessed that my family and friends will be a part of it."
Wasano isn't going into the Hall for his athletic prowess. Instead, this selfless man is being honored for his tireless and dedicated community service, for more than 15 years of coaching, first girls softball with his two daughters, and then, youth baseball with his two sons.
I first met Wasano in August of 2001 when he managed the Oceanside Little League All-Star team to the semi-finals of the Little League World Series in South Williamsport. Wasano's West team was robbed of advancing to the U.S. final by a 14-year-old teenager, Danny Almonte, who used a bogus birth certificate to pass as a 12-year-old. Oceanside might have beaten that kid and that team from the Bronx had the base umpire, William Stains, not missed a critical call at second base.
But all that aside, my memory of Oceanside's magical ride is of how well Wasano and his coaches, Dennis Carroll, Mike Cerda and Andy Scheunemann, coached and nourished those boys.
I remember Daryl's late father, Ed, a retired Marine who moved his family to Oceanside after serving in Korea and Vietnam, pulling me aside in the San Bernardino stands and saying something I never forgot. "These boys will make plays you won't believe," Ed Wasano said. "They make plays like big leaguers."
I thought it was just a proud father bragging on his son's managing ability, but Ed Wasano had it right. Yes, that Oceanside team was loaded with talent, but above all, it was well-coached, fundamentally sound and disciplined. That came from Wasano.
"My message, the teaching lesson I gave to the kids was that their parents signed them up to play baseball and it was no different than if they signed them up for piano or guitar lessons," Wasano said. "The the object is to get better. The only difference is we're a team, and there's the matter of getting along with other kids and working as a team. I tried to give them important life lessons, that if they worked hard, they'd get rewarded."
A lesser manager, a lesser man, might have made excuses that August day in 2001, might have blamed the loss back to the Bronx in South Williamsport on Almonte or the blown call at second base.
But not Wasano.
Wasano was pure class then and remains that way today about the whole experience. His message remains the same a dozen years later.

Dear Parents, Students, and Community Members,
I would like to welcome you to the 2014-2015 school year. All of us here at the Broken Bow School District are excited about the new school year and look forward with anticipation to the many great opportunities it holds for us. As I say each year, I can think of no better time in the world to be a Savage!
We have much to be thankful for here in the Broken Bow School District. We ended yet another year with a healthy carryover, our test scores came back showing successful gains in most all areas with many of those being above state average, our facilities and campuses are beautiful, we were able to increase our staff as a means to keep class-size numbers down, and our students as a whole are a talented group of young people that rise to the occasion in everything they do.
Broken Bow Schools strive to be a progressive educational institution. Our teachers and administrators continually take advantage of a number of professional development opportunities that will enhance their teaching and leadership skills. We work diligently to include quality instruction and a well-rounded and diverse curriculum for our students. Our belief is that all students should be ready to progress to the next grade level and ultimately exit our district prepared to compete in today's world whether that is through college, trade school, the military, or joining the workforce.
My request to the community is to first and foremost be supportive to our schools. Become involved in the education of our youth and show your interest in our students by attending their activities when you have a chance.
I'm looking forward to another great school year. I hope you are too!
Carla Ellisor, Supt.

'Sons of Anarchy' Season 5 teaser: What's the play?Add to Favorites | Sons of Anarchy
The latest teaser for "Sons of Anarchy" doesn't reveal a whole lot. Unlike the character-based promos FX has been offering up of late, though, it at least gives a slightly longer glimpse of footage from Season 5.
The 20-second spot features Jax ( Charlie Hunnam), now sitting at the head of the table as president of SAMCRO, asking his stepfather Clay ( Ron Perlman), "What's the play?"
"I'm all out of play," Clay replies. "I'm just trying to do what's best for SAMCRO. What's your play, son?"
The complete answer to that question probably won't come for a while, but from the looks of things Jax's term as president will not be an easy one. The rest of the teaser is a series of quick-cut images, including one of Jimmy Smits' character laughing maniacally while behind the wheel, Opie ( Ryan Hurst) being restrained by two cops, Jax staring down a gun and, finally, a grim-faced Jax standing in front of a rather large fire.
"Sons of Anarchy" premieres at 10 p.m. ET Tuesday, Sept. 11. What do you think of the latest teaser?

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
As far as puzzle games go, this was one of my favourites of the time. Fast, soooooo colourful, and pretty damn hard at time. Also paying against friends as equally skilled as you was a true treat.

This was just my yearly calendar refill. Living where there is no cell service, I rely on "paper." This refill is for the great little calendar & address book. ALL the items sold by Leatherology are of the highest quality. All great looking, various colors to choose from, and just plain nice. Very classy line of items.
Can't complain. The refills were shipped in a timely fashion and were exactly what I had anticipated.
Easy order. Pleased.
Excellent product. Just the right size to fit in your pocket
I have had a leather date book/address book/note pad for 10 years now and each year I purchase a new calendar for it as well as new pages for the address book portion and additional pads. The refills are reasonably priced and always delivered in a timely fashion. Additionally, I have purchased several monogrammed tissue holders for myself and friends. Great products, too!!
I have used this calender for over a year and this purchase was for a replacement calendar for 2014. It's the perfect size and has everything you need to remember those important dates and times. It really keeps me organized.
i've been purchasing this product for close to 20 years. love the size and quality. leatherology had some hiccups in the early years but really stepped up on making ordering effortless.
Yes...I intend to buy this product again next year. I do wish that shipping/handling didn't increase the price so much. HAPPY HOLIDAYS...and a GREAT 2012!!
Great product, used it for years.
I have been ordering this refill for the past twenty years or so to go in my leather planner. I really ""could not live without it"". I love it!
Wonderful calender . I have been using this for 12 years and works great for me. Thanks
Due to the size of this item, it is not available for traditional gift packaging. However, it will arrive in a pouch or drawstring bag packaged in a logo kraft box.

It all started with a void in the contemporary family.
"Our conversations with children are not deep enough," says psychiatrist Cece Feiler. "If you can't talk to your children, they grow up into adults who don't care.
"It forces you to slow down, to reflect and to interact in a meaningful way," Feiler says.
So together with actress Heidi Haddad, she created the Shabbat Box of Questions, whose Star of David-shaped question cards do inspire fun, even soul-searching moments.
Shabbat Box's origin began on a ski trip during which, while enduring slow service at a restaurant, Haddad says her husband, David, started asking their children -- Jackie, 10, Jamie, 8, and Jake, 6 -- questions "to keep the kids from melting down. And it worked."
Haddad and Feiler consulted Wilshire Boulevard Temple's Rabbi Steven Leder before finalizing their gift idea. Ever since, the two have been selling their product at charity events.
One Shabbat, the Haddad family brought out the Shabbat Box, and David Haddad picked up a question that asked what his greatest fear was. He admitted it was public speaking, which surprised Jackie, who shared this phobia. And that's when Jamie admitted her greatest fear: not being the center of attention.Feiler, who has tested Shabbat Box on her children -- Jordan, 10, Matisse, 8, and Shana, 6 -- adds, "We're finding our non-Jewish friends are enjoying them, too." In fact, Haddad and Feiler are already planning sequels, including a Christmas edition.
The questions are not all strictly Jewish. In addition to cards such as "What is a mitzvah?" there are ones such as "If you could stand up and fight for one cause that would make a difference in the world, what would it be?" Shabbat Box is an excuse to strengthen family ties, its creators say.
Feiler says, "If more families were engaged in communication, there wouldn't be more war, more divorces, more children in therapy with me."

Thermal Spa, Skiing & Mountains
Real insiders think that Längenfeld nestles in Ötztal's most scenic spot. Probably they are right! The marvelous hamlets are embedded in a wide open basin covered with lush green meadows and colorful fields. Huben and Gries, two lovely holiday villages, belong to Längenfeld as well. This place makes a perfect base for unlimited skiing holidays in the Ötztal, as the skiing center of Sölden can be reached within ten minutes by car. Längenfeld's unique highlight is the Aqua Dome thermal spa center, the only of its kind in Tirol. The huge wellness, swimming and sauna center covers some 50,000 m². For memorable holidays in Längenfeld Tiscover also provides you with family-run hotels, guesthouses or nice holiday apartments.
Walking, Climbing, Running
In the summer Längenfeld makes a great base for unlimited walking, hiking and climbing. Mountain fans can choose from 150 km of signposted hiking trails. The valley's wide open basin features countless running trails and Nordic walking routes. Längenfeld also boasts marvelous climbing tours: Reinhard Schiestl via ferrata and Burgsteiner Wand via ferrata rank among Ötztal's most challenging climbing spots while Lehner Wasserfall via ferrata right next to the rushing waterfall has the most scenic Alpine backdrop. Refreshing moments on hot summer days await you at lovely lake Piburger See at the entrance to the valley and in Längenfeld's outdoor pool.
Pleasant Winter Magic
Crisp and clean winter air, glittering peaks at sunset – the Ötztal Alps make for a breathtaking and magic backdrop in winter, especially when floating in the warm water of the thermal outdoor pools at Aqua Dome spa center. Perfect rest and relaxation after an adventurous skiing day await you in the healing waters. Längenfeld is a great base for both spa holidays and ski vacations as the two top ski areas of Sölden and Obergurgl-Hochgurgl are within easy driving distance.
Längenfeld offers winter holidays far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Nordic skiers find a real cross-country skiing paradise on the sun-kissed valley floor and along the scenic Ötztaler Ache river. Längenfeld boasts not only the valley's longest Nordic skiing tracks but also some 40 kilometers of cleared winter walking routes, leading to romantic mountain inns. Alpengasthof am Feuerstein with its sunny terrace ranks among the very special highlights: it can be easily reached within a one-hour walk. Speed fans can return on a toboggan. The quiet mountain village of Gries nestles in a secluded side valley at 1600 meters above sea level. A marvelous place for families and kids, offering 2 practicing ski lifts and easy skiable terrain.

Sometimes I think he needs his very own red cape!
Seems like anytime something goes wrong at the house, I eventually end up calling Joe... and again, my next door neighbor of 20 years came to my rescue last night. This time, it was a car issue. Ya see, Ted's vehicle had a problem with the tail lights staying on, even after the car was turned off and the lights off... just staying on. It had begun on Monday night and on Tuesday afternoon, after having jumped the car three times, he took it to a mechanic who looked at it and said it was the 'switch' and he fixed it and sent Ted on his way... for free, I might add.
Well, it started up again last night and yes, the battery was dead! The timing was not convenient AT ALL. Ted was all set to go start a new job this morning... one that required him having a car in order to do said job! So yes, I panicked... and when I panic, I call Joe! (after having called another friend who had absolutely no idea what to do... well, I was trying NOT to bother Joe... that's when the panic set in.)
Of course Joe knew what I was talking about with that 'switch' the mechanic had referred to! And, in true Joe fashion, we got out there with our flashlight and he showed me exactly what the problem was. Not only that, but he got on the phone and ordered the new part ($13 part, I might add) and today he is gonna talk Ted throught the process of replacing that switch! Great lessons learned for both me and Ted.
Oh, and of course Joe had a battery charger we could borrow... charged up that battery and off Ted went to his new job this morning! Super Joe... Uh huh!

Diana Lutz's daughter spotted that the drug Pamprin - which is "for the temporary relief of symptoms associated with menstrual periods" - comes with the caveat that those with an enlarged prostate should seek medical advice before taking it (Feedback, 5 July). She could be forgiven for thinking that Pamprin is aimed at men who have sympathetic periods.
Feedback earlier reported suggestions that in fact some women have prostates: "...the leading peer-reviewed oncology publication, Cancer... released a study that examines the fear and uncertainty that come with prostate cancer diagnosis - particularly among men" (21 October 2006).

Hello- Really enjoying the framework but still getting accustomed to the way in which it is configured, please bear w/me;)
I have embedded a YouTube video in a feature and want Call To Action content floated right of the video. When resized to mobile-browser width, either the content flows vertically outside of the container or the header and text content reflows after the sub-320px breakpoint (as it should) and then obscures the video. This content represents the main call to action on the homepage and I don't see any way to rectify this except leaving the video in the feature and moving the text content into an element below the features but above the boxes.
Any ideas or how I can add a full-width container in-between the features and boxes so the call to action is available at all widths? I tried the drag N drop to add a container but ran into a dead-end. It also appears that I must have a feature title which will flow over the video. I know I can set it to "No-Title" and just show a background image but I am using a video so that won't work.
Thanks in advance

We are also known for holding some of the best and brightest among the University of Toronto Students and Alumni. We will continue this tradition at Frosh Week 2014 and we hope you will join us for a week full of fun and excitement!
Frosh Week will take place from Tuesday September 2nd to Friday September 5th 2014!
What is Frosh Week?
Frosh Week is a week of orientation for new students. You will get to know St. Mike's and the University of Toronto campus during this week. However, orientation refers to more than just geographic acclimation. It is also a great way to orient yourself with your new university life, including classes, various student groups and the large number of different facilities on campus that are available to you. During this week, you will get a chance to meet and interact with other new students, upper year St. Mike's students and SMC staff through a multitude of fun activities and events!
Why is it called "Fantasy Frosh"?
So, what's up with the Fantasy theme and what does it have to do with St. Michael's College? At the heart of any Fantasy Film is an epic journey in which the protagonist travels to achieve a greater knowledge or understanding in a situation or generally in the world around them. Like these protagonists, the incoming St. Michael's College students are about to embark on their own journey learning to overcome fears and growing into maturity and understanding. More importantly, the journeys always contain obstacles to overcome, just like you will in your academic career at the University of Toronto. The obstacles always lead to enlightenment though– and the goal is to introduce and integrate you into the life at SMC to prepare you for your journey.

Regional Transit Forum Created by Roxanne Escobales
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday
Yesterday evening at 6:30 when rush hour traffic should have been tapering off, the Howard Frankland Bridge heading east into Tampa was backed up into Pinellas County. The area's increasing congestion due to the rapid growth of the past ten years has local elected officials scrambling to find answers. At the behest [bi-hest] of Pinellas County Commission Chair Ronnie Duncan, this morning in Tampa leaders from Pinellas, Pasco and Hillsborough counties, and the cities within them, met to discuss regional solutions to the growing transit problems.
Commissioner Ronnie Duncan said about a million more people live in the Tampa Bay area compared to 14 years ago.
ACT: 'quality of life"
Armed with the latest transit study, the Tampa Bay area's Florida Department of Transportation secretary, Don Skelton, said over the past 15 years, delays in travel time have increased by 110 percent.
All forms of transit solutions were discussed. From high-occupancy-vehicle lanes to bus rapid transit to the overriding favourite – commuter and light rail. Most existing rail plans map a route following existing C-S-X lines that travel on land around the bay. ST Petersburg Mayor Rick Baker said getting across the bay needs to be an integral part of any rail system.
Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio said the area's counties and cities must work together if there's to be any success.
Former Hillsborough County Commissioner Ed Turanchik unsuccessfully pushed for a light rail system around ten years ago when he was in office. While he clearly favors rail, he told the forum that whatever form they choose, the time to act is now.
By the end of the morning, the group agreed to formulate a detailed plan by combining the existing ones of each county. A transit working group was formed of elected officials, and the issue will be revisited in six months to check on progress.comments powered by Disqus
