I see them everywhere. Precious little girls with their doting fathers. I always thought that every man wanted a son. Someone they could teach and mold and show them how to be a man themselves. It wasn't until Gracie that I realized how much daddies love their daughters.
I see the pain on my husband's face every time we come across a little girl and her daddy. Today we went to the beach and a little girl was trying to sneak up on her dad. She laughed and squealed when he caught her and chased her down to the water. I saw hubs bite back tears when it happened.
When I was pregnant with Gracie he would talk to her and tell her about all of the things they were going to do together. She was going to watch sports with him, learn how to bbq and such. When I was put on bedrest he promised her a car of her choosing when she turned 16, even if it meant he'd have to sell his own to buy hers. As things got worse he promised her anything she wanted. He wrote a letter to her after she died and admitted that while he wanted her to be a tomboy he would have gladly played tea party and dress-up with her if it was what she wanted.
As much as I miss my daughter, it breaks my heart even more seeing my husband struggle. I feel like I failed him and I am terrified of failing him again.

CONCORD, N.C. – A special Yamaha Sportsman Money Race will be offered Friday after practice at round five of the 2012 Vega / TS Racing Road Racing Series driven by Mazda, the July 27-29 VIR Nationals at VIRginia Int'l Raceway.
The Money Race is made possible by road race karting veteran and Safe Harbour Wine Storage owner "Wild" Bill Holder and Bolt Saw Service owner Jeramie Bolt, another longtime enduro kart racer.
A cool $300 will go to the winner with the second-place finisher taking home $150. Third-place will get $75, fourth-place $50 and fifth-place $25.
A neat twist to the non-points event is that both laydown and sprint-enduro Yamaha Sportsman karts are allowed to enter. The laydown-enduro minimum weight is 395 pounds while sprint-enduro karts can run at a 370-pound minimum.
While points are not offered, there will be full post-race technical inspection. Rough driving will not be tolerated and will be subject to disqualification.
Holder and Bolt put up the purse to run a similar Money Race at a Woodbridge Kart Club WKA regional event in June at Summit Point, which was won by Scott Clark, and will offer the special race at Summit this Sept. 7 on the WKA Nationals weekend.
"I'm doing this to help and support the sport of enduro karting," "Wild" Bill Holder said. "I'll be out there trying to win the money, like everyone else. This is about having fun, giving WKA and WKC something new to promote, and trying to help grow the sport. It was a good event at Summit last month and I think the VIR Money Race will be even better. I hope everyone gets out there and runs, and let's have some fun and keep it clean!"
The Money Race will be 40 minutes in length and will run after Friday practice.

VIR Nationals pre-registration is open until July 20. Mail completed pre-entries to WKC at 3383 Hickory Hills Dr.; Oakton, VA 22124, or simply pre-enter online on http://woodbridgekartclub.com.

Senate is ready to take up budgetBy PETER HIRSCHFELD
Vermont Press Bureau | March 31,2013MONTPELIER After a week of contentious debate over a revenue package that drew the scorn of both Republican lawmakers and the Democratic governor, the House on Friday handed the baton to the Senate, where key players, including president John Campbell, are already hinting at additional changes.
The House has had its way with the budget and tax proposals handed them earlier this year by Gov. Peter Shumlin. Gone is a $17 million reduction in the earned-income tax credit, as well as the bulk of the child care subsidies to which the governor would have allocated those savings.
And Shumlins $17 million tax on break-open tickets, and $15 million health care assessment on businesses, meanwhile, have been replaced by tax increases on meals, income, and purchases of clothing, soda, candy, cigarettes and bottled water.
Campbell, a Windsor County Democrat, said he doesnt want to sound like a Monday morning quarterback as he assessed the Houses work in an interview Friday.
I laud them for the work that they did, he said. Theyre the ones that come out of the gate first... and have to look for some kind of revenue to meet our shortfalls.
But Campbell said their work is likely to undergo potentially significant revisions prior to reaching the Senate floor.
My initial reaction is that I do not want to have to raise that much revenue, Campbell said of a House plan that would generate about $27 million in fiscal year 2014, and $32 million the year after that.
Campbell said raising less revenue will require a reduction in the $5.24 billion budget given final approval by the House on Friday. He wont yet specify the areas of spending hell be targeting for cuts.
But I think its clear we have to triage, Campbell said. I think the Senate is going to look at items in the House budget and ask, do we need to fund these things this year? And if we are going to support a new program, is it one thats going to expand exponentially?
Campbell said his aversion to new spending doesnt necessarily mean hes against the $3.3 million in child care subsidies for low-income parents in the House bill. Shumlin will continue to push for $17 million for that program, though his plan to reduce the earned income tax credit to pay for it looks to be as popular in the Senate as it was in the House, which is not at all.
But if were going to embark on new spending with something like the child care, then I think we need to look at taking our current spending elsewhere and reallocating, instead of just adding to the overall budget, he said.
Which isnt to say that Campbell wont support some level of revenue increases.
I would have to be either very insincere or unknowledgeable of the challenges we face to say no right now to new taxes, Campbell said.
Though he hails from a border town himself, Campbell said he thinks the Houses proposal to revoke the sales tax exemption on soda merits serious consideration. The move would raise an estimated $2.8 million annually.
I understand as well as anyone that people in border towns may not be pleased with us, Campbell said. But in these hard times I think its a place we may have to go.
As for the House plan to eliminate the sales tax exemption on purchases of items of clothing that cost more than $110, Campbell said thats off the table for him. Also problematic, he said, is the half-a-percentage-point increase on the meals tax, which would raise $4.2 million in fiscal year 2014. The provision would sunset under the House plan in June of 2014.
I dont want to do anything that might impede our tourism businesses from emerging from this last recession, Campbell said. Campbell and Sen. Tim Ashe, first-year chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance, say theyve taken a brighter view of Shumlins proposed tax on break-open tickets than their counterparts in the House. Neither agrees with the $17 million figure Shumlin said the tax would raise. But even if it only generates $6.5 million annually the estimate arrived at by fiscal analysts for the Legislature they say it may be a worthwhile policy goal.
I would rather go to something which some people engage in voluntarily for entertainment purposes, Campbell said.
Ashe, to whom Campbell said he will show deference on many tax issues, said hes impressed by the Houses decision to use the elimination of exemptions in the income tax code as opposed to simply increasing rates to generate revenue.
Our committee has been exploring tax policy for equity purposes, without regard to whether it would raise money or cost money, because its always the right time to fix inequities in the tax code, Ashe said.
Ashe said there might be inequities to be found in the income tax. The House plan generates the bulk of the revenue increases in fiscal year 2015 by capping the dollar value of itemized deductions filers can use to lower their tax bills. The proposal would have a disproportionate effect on wealthy Vermonters, who tend to have higher home mortgage interest and other deductions they can use to offset tax obligations.
The governor in part wants to pay for his new priorities by taking money out of the pockets of low-income workers, through reductions in the earned income tax credit, Ashe said last week. Meanwhile, wealthy people receive tax deductions for second or third homes that not only may not be in Vermont, but may not be in this country. When our committee is looking at this, we are thinking, what is the best first dollar to raise for our priorities.
The other major revenue proposal to come out of the House this year, a gas tax projected to raise per-gallon prices by close to 7 cents this summer, could also come under scrutiny in the Senate. The House plan mirrors the one put forward by Shumlin in January in that it shifts the tax away from a static per-gallon charge, and toward a percentage on the retail price at the pump. The change creates a built-in inflator that proponents say will allow revenues to keep pace with the rising cost of road and bridge maintenance.
Sen. Dick Mazza, longtime chairman of the Senate Committee on Transportation, said hes not convinced its the right way to go.
I dont like having automatic tax increases built in now, Mazza said. If we need more money in three or four years, then I think we ought to come back in three or four years and deal with it then.MORE IN This Just InThe family of a Connecticut man who was killed in a car accident on Route 4 last Friday night is...

Well, I suppose it's getting to be about that time. With football pretty much over and Fan Fest going on this weekend, we might as well jump threads and focus on the new year (Another new year with new hope!) I'll give my annual, completely boring, most likely wrong, outlook on the 2012 M's.
It's interesting that in a matter of months we went from a HUGE weakness at Catcher with Miguel Olivo and Adam Moore, to an actual surplus with Montero, Jaso, Olivo, Gimenez, Moore, etc.
This will be an interesting development for many reasons, but for starters: I don't expect to see Moore or Gimenez on the team. They aren't very good and we have no need for depth anymore. The only way I see Gimenez making it, is if they decide they want some extra outfield depth, but in that case, I don't see why they wouldn't call up an OF who is better than him.
A lot of the boneheads in the Seattle media have been trying to figure out who is the starter and who is going to be the "guy". Well, it's not going to work like that IMO. Montero will catch games. Point, blank, period. Wedge, Jack Z, etc. have all stated that Montero WILL get his shot at catching. Wedge said that many catchers don't really blossom as a defensive catcher until later and that it would be foolish to not give him a chance. However, I think anything beyond a third of the starts at catcher would be a stretch, especially in his true rookie year. I'd expect something like 25% of his ABs to come at catcher, while the rest (maybe a little at 1st) go to DH.
That leaves about 75% (again, this is all just guessing) or so to split between Olivo and Jaso. Wedge seems to really like Olivo, but Jaso is probably the better catcher between the two. I still expect to see Olivo get the majority of the reps. Let's just hope he's done swinging at pitches that are so far outside they're hitting the grass...doh!
1st Base:
On one hand, there's not much to say here, as there's no debate/doubt on who our 1st baseman is, but on the other hand, there's a lot to say about WHO that guy is.
Who is Justin Smoak?
Is it the guy who cranked out 10 homers or so in the first 2 months and was using all parts of the field from both sides of the plate? Or is he the guy who swung at every single curve ball in the dirt for 3 straight months, couldn't stay healthy and regressed defensively?
The answer is probably somewhere in the middle, but make no mistake, this is a put up or shut up year for Smoak. Fair or not, it's time for him to start producing. Reports are that he's come in down 17 pounds at 220 and he's completely healthy. You guys know how I feel about Smoak: not a big fan...I really like him as a person (met him before a game last year, really nice guy and he has the best intro music on the entire team) and I know he's gone through a lot in his first couple years with his dad passing and the freak injuries, but he's going to have to make a significant adjustment at the plate if he wants to become the kind of power-gap hitter that he was projected to be. He gets himself in bad counts which ends up with junk balls that he swings at. I'm being optimistic with Smoak, as he is still a young hitter, and I hope this is finally the year he puts up a .850+ OPS like he's capable of.
I think Montero will get a couple looks at 1B throughout the year and Carp will fill in whenever Smoak is out/day off.
Second base:
I have no idea what we're going to do here...we need some serious reinforcements. Oh wait, we have Dustin Ackley. Sorry, I was reminiscing about going into a 3rd straight year with either Adam Kennedy, Jack Wilson or Chone Figgins as our second baseman.
Not much to say here...I have no doubt that Ackley will continue his ascension into stardom. He was amazing defensively for someone who just picked up the position and although he cooled down at the end, he showed at the plate why he was the #2 pick overall. I'm not even going to name his backups because I hope he plays every game, every at bat. Ok, not really. He'll be backed up by some combination of Kyle Seager and Chone Figgins I would guess.
Hustle-team hero Brendan Ryan will be back here as Nick Franklin isn't near ready for the big leagues yet. I like Brendan Ryan. He plays defense, he hustles, he plays the game hard, he plays alert (still love that infield triple) and he's a good clubhouse guy. The only problem: he sucks at hitting (gee, that's a shocker). I believe this is his final year of the deal, and he's a good stop-gap guy that can hold the position for Franklin in 2013.
Munenori Kawasaki will also be on the team, I would assume. Don't know much about him, other than the fact that he seems to have the same kind of sleep-inducing hitting skills as most of the team.
Third base:
Hello, weakness. Yikes, could this position be any more dreadful. Let's see: we have the choice between a guy who does everything wrong, a guy who can't hit for any power, or a guy who can hit the ball a mile but strikes out a ton (Figgins, Seager and Liddi there for anyone who was wondering). I'm not going to pretend like I have a favorite for who wins the job, well I kind of do, none of them. I hope it's some kind of platoon or rotation between Liddi and Seager. Figgins sucks and I don't want him to ever hit the green grass or dirt infield of Safeco field ever again. Alas, I know that's not likely and we'll get some kind of dreadful mix of the three. Like I said in the 2011 thread, I really wish the Mariners would go after David Wright whenever the Mets make him available. He'd be a nice fit for the team.
Pretty clear that this position will be mostly Mike Carp. Enemy of USS Mariner and saberarrogance, Carp had a surprising rookie season that started by him absolutely destroying anything in sight at AAA. After he had to be brought up out of mercy, he turned out a pretty nice season hitting .274 with 12 homers and some timely hitting. Yeah, he sucks at defense and his peripherals suggest a possible reduction, I think he's a good LH fit for our lineup that could certainly use all the pop it can get.
Mike Carp will probably get a decent amount of run at 1B when Smoak gets the occasional day off. Casper Wells will play LF on those days, I'd assume.
Center field:
Just like first base...make it or break it season here. We all love Guti's defense, but another .220 season won't be tolerated. He's too good and our team is too poor for that crap. Not much to say other than that. Another gold glove season is in the works, so hopefully he can get his bat going again.
Sleeper-alert-that-will-make-everyone-hate-me: Michael Saunders. Apparently he's been working with a new hitting coach in the offseason and has looked miles better. I don't think he's going to ever be the guy we wanted, but I think he will be a servicable 4th OF who can play CF and hit adequately. Let's see how wrong I am. :)
Right field:
Well, looks like this could be the final season that we see Ichiro Suzuki play for the M's. It's time to part, but I absolutely love what Ichiro has done for the last 10 years. Take away last year and you have a guy who is unconventional and quirky, yet consistent and durable. No player in M's history has hit for average the way this guy did and he did it while playing very good defense. So if this is truly his last year…I hope he goes out with a bang. .330 average, 6 HRs, 35 SB. Calling it now.
Ichiro will certainly be depended on less this year IMO, which makes Casper Wells even more valuable as he can play all 3 OF spots.
Designated Hitter:
So regardless of how we all feel about Montero being limited (for now) to mostly DH, isn't it at least nice to say that our DH is going to be someone other than Jose Vidro, Milton Bradley or Jack Cust?

The Milford CT branch of Uncle Bob's Storage is OFF THE CHARTS wonderful. The quality of the facility is beyond any storage company I've ever dealt with. It's like a fine hotel for my stuff. It's better than some apartments I've lived in! (lol.) It seems very secure and extremely clean. The staff were very nice and signing up took less time than I expected. The only not-perfect thing I noticed was that the hours of access are more limited than other places I've rented from, but overall the benefits far far outweigh this.Shelly from New Haven, CT

To The Editor:
Town office vote is a no-brainer. We should be voting no on this bond vote. To be tempted by some free money from the state and make a decision that affects our town for the next many decades is a big mistake. To build a new building for town offices is a mistake, when we have the opportunity to restore and re-use an outstanding historic structure that already exists. We should be strengthening our historic district, not competing with it.
The motion for this bond vote was done as a quick reaction to grab for money that could also be used for other alternatives for new office space, whether it be the Methodist Church or any other building. The grant money is also available for long-term leased space. All it would take is an application for what the people in Waitsfield feel is the best solution for the town. Do we feel a new building is the correct solution? No, I don't think so, judging by the sentiment that was shown when the last vote was taken and it was overwhelmingly defeated. There have also been numerous suggestions for other alternatives.
What happened to the survey that was being prepared to poll the sentiment of the voters? It was abandoned when the motion to bond for a new building was made, along with adding the temptation of free money to the package. This is not the way that our town should be doing business. The voters should not be asked to make a hurried, gun-to-the-head decision. This vote is being pushed through without consensus. The state wants to help Waitsfield, the grant program is ongoing for the next three or four years, it is well funded and funds are available for whatever project the voters feel is the best long-term solution. I urge everyone to vote no to this bond vote, so we can rethink our long-term goals and apply for grant money reflecting the desire of the voters.

Apartment Fire Investigated as Suspicious
(posted June 3, 2015)
On Wednesday, June 3, 2015, at 8:49 AM, the Appleton Fire Department was dispatched to smoke coming from the second floor of an apartment building in the 3000 block of S. Chain Drive. Fire personnel were on scene by 8:57 AM. Residents of the building had already evacuated their apartments. Several fire units responded and were able to extinguish the fire.
The fire, which was contained to one room of the second floor apartment, caused damage to several other apartments. The fire did not injure any apartment residents. One firefighter twisted an ankle while fighting the fire. The building, housing eight (8) separate apartments, will have most residents return later today, following the investigation.
Based on evidence at the apartment and statements from witnesses the fire is being investigated as suspicious by the Appleton Police Department, Appleton Fire Department and Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigations (DCI). Those agencies are currently attempting to locate an individual regarding the origin of the fire.
The Town of Menasha Police Department, City of Menasha Police Department and Neenah-Menasha Fire Rescue assisted in the incident.
If you have information about the fire, you are asked to contact Sgt. Leitzinger at the Appleton Police Department (920) 832-5541.
If you have information but wish to remain anonymous, consider Text-a-Tip. Text CRIMES (274-637) with the keyword APDTIPS at the start of your message.
For additional information, contact Sgt. David Lund at 920-832-5509.
Appleton Police Host Drug Drop Off and Confidential Paper Shredding Event
(posted June 1, 2015)
On Saturday, June 6, 2015, the Appleton Police Department will be hosting their 2nd Annual Drug Drop Off and Confidential Paper Shredding Event. The event will be held in the parking lot of the Outagamie County Justice Center (320 S. Walnut Street). It starts at 9:00 AM and ends at noon.
Individuals participating are allowed to bring up to three (3) bankers boxes/grocery bags of confidential papers for shredding and safe disposal. Due to the time required, shredding will take place off site (through Cintas Document Destruction).
Individuals who wish to drop off unused prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, inhalers or pet medications are encouraged to cross off/remove labels with personal identifying information. We cannot accept needles, syringes, hazardous/chemical waste, mercury products or electric glucose monitoring devices at the event.
The purpose of the event: Pharmaceutical waste poses a significant environmental risk, especially to our drinking water. Studies conducted throughout the country have uncovered many of these drugs in our drinking water, and the negative effects of these substances on the general population are only now beginning to be studied and understood. Additionally, pharmaceutical drugs, when abused or taken incorrectly, pose a substantial health risk. Of all the illegal drugs found in the Fox Cities, more deaths are attributed to the pharmaceutical drug category than all of the other drug types combined.
Identity theft is now the fastest growing crime in the country. Most identity theft is done through simple means of collecting papers thrown in the trash. Simple strip shredders do not prevent criminals from obtaining the information they need to steal your identity.
For further information, please contact Sgt. Dave Lund at (920) 832-5509.

Heartland News Service
MADISON — Dustin Steele was released from jail on his 21st birthday, but his arrest was not the result of the usual coming-of-age mischief. Steele was arrested during a protest of mountaintop removal mining in his native West Virginia.
Steele was part of a march organized by RAMPS (Radical Action for Mountain Peoples Survival) that marched on the Hobet Mine 45. Roughly 50 protesters walked onto the mine Saturday to show their opposition to mountaintop removal mining and what they see as the environmental destruction caused by the practice.
The protesters say they were mistreated by the West Virginia State Police, but the police say there was no such mistreatment, that they protected environmentalists during their protest.
A native of the Mate Creek community of Meador, Steele said he was raised by his grandfather, a 27-year union coal miner, and a graduate of Gilbert High School.
Steele said when the group of environmentalists arrived at the mine, he locked himself to a piece of mining equipment in order to stop production. He said the police arrived shortly, and asked the protesters to leave. About 30 of them left voluntarily, he said.
A press release from RAMPS said those who left the mine site voluntarily were "were forced to march down the road for four hours under constant harassment and threats by coal supporters before being allowed to drive home." The Daily News did not speak to any of those protesters.
Dustin Steele told the Daily News some of the protesters who stayed eventually voluntarily unlocked themselves from equipment, while West Virginia State Troopers used bolt cutters to remove others from the equipment. But, he says, none of the protesters defied the orders by police in an aggressive manner.
"We did not comply," Steele said. "But we did not resist. We chose to go limp and be carried. We were completely non-violent and peaceful, and were arrested without incident."
Those who were arrested were put into vehicles and transported to the city of Madison, where they were fingerprinted and processed. Steele said that was where West Virginia State Police committed police brutality.
"I was drug across asphalt," Steele said. "I was struck."
He said he was not in a position to give details of the alleged violence against him and other protesters due to a legal investigation the group hopes will take place as a result of their claims. He also declined to say whether there were pictures of any injuries he had received.
"I guarantee you there is not a mark on that boy," WVSP Sgt. A.S. Perdue with the Madison Detachment said. Perdue said he understood the protesters were trying to make a statement, but their behavior did not further their cause. He said the protesters had to carried into their offices in Madison.
"I understand what they were trying to achieve at the mine," he said. "But when you get here [to Madison], and you won't walk, you just lay lifeless like a dead body, that is not achieving anything."
He said the WVSP had done their job that day, both at the mine and at a gathering of protesters and pro-coal activists at Kanawha State Forest before the march at Hobet.
"We were the ones who were probably abused, we had to go up there and unchain them" he said. "We kept them from being attacked by angry coal miners."
He said his commanding officer, Capt. Dave Nelson was at the scene the whole time, and that the situation never became abusive.
"We have cameras here that feed directly to Charleston," Perdue said.
RAMPS is calling for US District Attorney Booth Goodwin's office to launch a full investigation of the alleged brutality.
"Protesters were expecting to be arrested in an act of nonviolent civil disobedience, but few expected harassment, intimidation, assault," their statement said.
"The Energy Action Coalition is joining the call for [an investigation] in solidarity with those fighting to protect their homes, their families, and their futures in West Virginia," said Whit Jones, Campaign Director for the Energy Action Coalition, a national coalition of youth organizations fighting for environmental justice and a clean energy economy. "Young people want to see an end to mountaintop removal mining, but we also want our rights to peacefully protest without fear of assault by police protected."
The Daily News contacted the District Attorney's office to ask how such an investigation would be conducted, and received this statement:
"The FBI investigates complaints of civil rights violations by public officials. We are not aware of whether the FBI has received a complaint in connection with the allegations mentioned in your phone call."
Whether there will be an official investigation into police brutality charges, Dustin Steele, who now lives in Logan County, said he is not deterred from working toward "healthy and sustainable communities."
"While the state police, in conjunction with the coal companies, tried to break our spirit and our resistance by using violence to quell the fire of our movement, this attempt has failed," he said.

8 thick slices
white bread
1/4 cup
heavy cream
2 tablespoons
1/4 teaspoon
1/4 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon
grated orange zest
1/2 teaspoon
vanilla extract
3 tablespoons
This was fabulous. I was soo bored with the same old french toast. Don't be scared by the amount of honey, I started out with only 1 tbsp and after the first slice quickly added the other tbsp. They were not too sweet at all. I used light bread and half&half instead of heavy cream. They came out great. You have to cook them at a low heat because of all the honey or they will burn quickly. Definitely a keeper.
Way too much orange zest. I did not care for it at all though I might try to make it without the orange zest next time because the other ingredients do sound delicious. Sorry.

The kids and I liked this alright. My kids found more greatness in the french
toast being that they were shaped as stars. I liked that they ate their breakfast without complaint.
I might keep the star idea for next time and use a different french toast dip.
Wow! We just finished eating this for dinner and I must say that this was by far THE BEST French toast I have ever eaten! Our sons are huge Batman fans so I used a bat-shaped cookie cutter instead of a star and they loved it! For bread I used Best Bread Machine Bread from this site, it had just come out of the bread maker and worked out wonderfully for this recipe. I don't know if it's the difference in using heavy cream in place of milk as in traditional recipes, or the addition of honey, it just was a terrific recipe-unlike any I had ever had before. Thanks so much for sharing, I can attest that this will be our permanent French Toast recipe from here on out!
Just made these this morning, but didn't add the orange zest because of time. I used day-old Hawaiian bread cut in sticks (they were leftover from the dip last night for the Superbowl) and it was great! I fried them in a thin layer of vegetable oil and they were perfect. I like to sprinkle the cinnamon on while cooking to get it more evenly distributed. These tasted like restaurant quality french toast sticks! Yum!
Cute and creative! This was a proved to be a nice spin on an old favorite. I love french toast and this was a very tasty new way to prepare it especially with the touch of fruit. I used thick cut Texas toast and all I added was a little nutmeg to the egg mixture. When these were nice and crispy I dusted them with powdered sugar, a dollup of butter and drizzled some real maple syrup over top - a really nice treat for breakfast with a glass of OJ!
I loved the taste of it! be sure to cook them over low heat though - they'll burn quickly if it's set too high
Great taste! The orange zest gave it a delicious kick. Watch for too much zest on the last few pieces though.

The South Carolina Policy Council president will speak at the next Aiken Republican Club luncheon.
The Council's president, Ashley Landess, will discuss the recent legislative session, address disclosure and talk about the impact of President Barack Obama's health care reform, as well as touch on other key issues, according to a press release. A question-and-answer session is also planned after Landess speaks.
"I always look forward to Ashley speaking," said Club President Ken Gordon. "Her fervor and passion for her beliefs never fail to come through to her audience. She keeps her listeners engaged and informed."

Landess, originally from Spartanburg, has been the president of the Council since January 2008. She served as the Council's vice president of affairs from 1998 to 2008.
Landess earned a journalism degree from the University of North Texas and has pursued a 20-year career in communications in which she works with public policy, as well as consults for private businesses and nonprofit organizations.
The luncheon will take place Aug. 14 at Newberry Hall located at 117 Newberry St.
Registration and social hour begins at 11 a.m., and lunch will be served at noon. The cost of the luncheon for members is $15 and $20 for non-members. The fee includes lunch.

Okay Ladies,
We ARE going to get this PF calendar going!!! I just want to warn you that I'm looking at all of your baby pages and may email you about possibly using a picture.
Feel free to send pictures to firstname.lastname@example.com
Please include your name, child's name and what hypertensive disorder you had (PIH, Pre-e, HELLP), gestational age and birth date.
JPEG format is preferred, but I can work with anything. IF your picture is selected, a larger file or an original print will be needed.
Also, we plan on doing a memorial page in the calendar, so if you would like your child's (or other love one lost to pre-e's) info included, please let me know.
Take care everyone,
Kim Schwintz
Texas Chapter President
