Dead Sara alive and well in musicWritten by Mike Bauman | | firstname.lastname@example.com
To get an idea of what to expect from a Dead Sara show, just take a gander at the band's Facebook page.
Scroll down, and you'll see an action shot from a recent gig in Los Angeles where singer Emily Armstrong is a good 12 feet in the air above the stage. No, she can't fly, and she wasn't caught frozen in midair pre-crowd surf; she was just singing.
"It's definitely an outlet," Armstrong said of playing live. "We just love to play f—–g loud, dirty rock 'n' roll. I think we all essentially love to do that, amongst other things. But, like, right now, that's the feeling I get from everything. We just love to play loud rock 'n' roll. It's absolutely fun. It's stress-relieving for us."
The energetic spirit on display in that picture is just another day at the office for Armstrong and Dead Sara, one that will be on display in Toledo on May 3 when the band performs at Frankie's.
Rounded out by Siouxsie Medley (guitar), Chris Null (bass) and Sean Friday (drums), Dead Sara has generated lots of buzz over the past year through touring with the likes of Bush and Chevelle and is continuing to gain steam after releasing its self-titled, full-length debut on April 10.
"It's funny because it's a lot of work, but at the same time it's very relieving, if that makes any sense," Armstrong said. "It's like, 'OK, cool.' We got, like, this push, this help—like finally, moving, you know? We're not stuck at the wall trying to push the wall down, you know?
"And that's like a whole different type of work in itself, getting that wall to come down to be able to just move and work as a band."
Approximately four years ago, behind the wall is exactly where Dead Sara was musically.
"We hadn't played that many shows," said Armstrong, who started Dead Sara with Medley. "We had been on one 10-day tour with a friend's band of ours, and we had so much tension with labels wanting us to get into [the studio] with writers, with producers. So it's stuff that it just seemed not right to me. I was like, 'This is not what I wanted to do.' I wanted to play music."
Armstrong met Medley in her teens through a mutual friend, and for nearly eight years the duo has been jamming. After going through several lineup changes, struggling with the music industry and releasing EP "The Airport Sessions" in 2008, Dead Sara gained solid footing with the additions of Null and Friday.
Together they recorded the band's debut at the famed Sonic Ranch in Tornillo, Texas, in 2010 with producer Noah Shain (Atreyu, As Tall As Lions), who had produced friends of Dead Sara and seen the group's growth over the years.
"We were just kind of like, 'Yeah. Why not? You've seen our whole evolution and you understand it,' " Armstrong said of working with Shain. "He just understood where we wanted to go with it."
The result in Dead Sara's debut full-length is an 11-song effort that displays both the raw energy and melodic sensibility of the band, a dichotomy that's evident with hit singles like "Weatherman" and "Sorry for It All." The album, which was released on Dead Sara's own Pocket Kid Records label through Fontana/Universal, peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart.
Ironically, Armstrong—whose voice has garnered praise from Jefferson Airplane's Grace Slick and caught the attention of Courtney Love—never planned on being a singer.
"I just wanted to be the guitar player and backup singer; that was it," said Armstrong, who's been hooked on music since first picking up a guitar at 11 and hasn't stopped since getting a guitar on her 12th birthday. "It wasn't until I had so many singers in the band and it was just like, it wasn't quite what I was looking for. It just dawned on me one day that, 'You know what? They can't sing what I hear and it's not there,' so I had to literally train myself to be able to play or sing the way I hear it."
With an upcoming tour with the Used prior to being a featured artist on this year's Vans Warped Tour, Dead Sara is soaking in the moment after years of uncertainty in the music industry.
"I just want to convey raw emotion," Armstrong said of Dead Sara. "I want somebody to feel what it is that I could possibly communicate as a singer and a musician."
Dead Sara will perform on May 3 at Frankie's, 308 Main St. Presented by Verso Group and 100.7 The Zone, tickets are available for $1.07 in advance and will be $5 at the door the night of the show. Doors open at 8 p.m. and all ages are welcome. For more information, call (419) 693-5300 or visit frankiesinnercity.com.

Rated 4.6 out of 5Â by 14 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by pattipie This is the favorite jacket of my life This is the most comfortable amazing jacket. It does run a little small: I am 5'5" and weight 120, and it is perfect, but if I put on a sweater it would be too snug. But it looks so amazing, I wore it with a great pantsuit when I performed violin on stage last night at a local club, and everyone said it rocked! It is lined with satin, and is so comfortable. I love it to so much; I wore it to coffee with a model friend today, and she is going to buy one now, she loved it so much! 5.27.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Rawrosaur Favorite jacket ever I'm 5'6'', 120lb with a small chest, the size 4 fit perfect (just a tiny bit tight in the shoulders if I'm wearing several layers). This is absolutely my favorite jacket I've ever owned. The studs and the embellishment on the back are just perfect. I get so many compliments when I wear it! This ones a keeper, something that I'm hoping will last me years! 3.3.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by FPValR AMAZING! this is seriously the most amazing jacket. I have been so close to buying some of the other vegan jackets on here, but I am SO happy I waited and got this one! I usually get a 0, but in this I got a 2 because its a little cropped, so i wanted it to be a little longer. It is definetly true to size, but if you want to size up for a little extra room for layers, definitely do. DEFINITELY a great buy. don't miss out! <3 1.12.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by keasa13 Awesome I have been looking for a leather jacket for a while. I never thought I would buy a cropped jacket b/c I am all about length. But I must say this jacket has a lot of character. I love different and unique pieces. This piece is so comfy I LOVE IT. Worth the money. Totally narly Jacket : ) 1.30.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by mbwh Great Statement Jacket! I LOVE this jacket so much. It's such a great statement piece to amp up an otherwise normal outfit, and it also works well with fancier clothing for a more dramatic look. If you want to fit a sweater underneath, I'd recommend getting a size up, but otherwise go with your normal jacket size. 1.16.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by rebeccasalsa ultra cool investment piece I received this jacket in the mail a couple days ago. The detail is incredible; just thinking about it makes me happy. I would give it 5 stars except when I got it, there appeared to be what I can only assume are spots of dried liquid. They're not super visible, but they shouldn't be there in the first place. Normally I would just exchange it, but now it is nearly sold out. As for size, I ordered a 2 because the 0 was sold out, and because of other reviews stating the jacket ran small. I am 5'4, 120lbs and 32b cup size, and the 2 is a bit roomy but still fits alright if you want a looser fit. 8.3.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Likeclothes So cute but wish it stretched a bit. I loved this jacket the first time I saw it but thought it was too expensive. I kept waiting for it to go on sale but then figured it wouldn't because such a specialty item. Being vegan, I am thrilled and love that FP has this line of vegan leather. I finally ordered this in an 8. It was too large and didn't look great. I am 5'2, 125 lbs. and 34C. Athletic, muscular shoulders so often have trouble with items that don't fit across chest. The 6 when I tried it in the store looked really good on me/more fitted, but when I finally bought the jacket, the 6 was sold out so I tried the 8. Now I am just going to return. If I see a 6 on sale I probably would buy it. But it's a lot of money, and eventually, though it seems well made, that fabric piece on the back is going to fall off. And I don't think there is vegan leather under there. Just for reference. 6.26.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Riley8819 Love love love I love this jacket! The embroidery on the back looks even better in person. I would definitely recommend sizing up, though. 4.23.2012

Health care totalitarianismApril 03,2013In 2011 the Vermont Legislature enacted Act 48, Gov. Peter Shumlins Green Mountain Care law. A section little noticed at the time conferred upon the new Green Mountain Care Board the power to set rates for health care professionals to be implemented over time, and make adjustments to the rules on reimbursement methodologies as needed.
At the time most believed that this power of the board was necessary for the board to determine how much to pay doctors providing services within the public-private universal health care system created by the act always, of course, in light of available appropriations.
Rep. Cynthia Browning, D-Arlington, has a Ph.D. in economics, and a penchant for asking important and sometimes troublesome questions. She read Act 48 and noticed that the boards power to regulate prices charged by medical providers extended to any service provided by any doctor in Vermont even a service offered privately to a patient paying directly out of pocket.
On March 19 Rep. Browning offered an amendment to this years health care bill (H.107) to repeal the boards power to price-control and thus exterminate private medical agreements completely outside the coming single-payer system. The liberal Democratic House voted it down 44-94. Only four Democrats voted for it.
The argument against the Browning amendment came down to this: if Vermonters with money could escape from Green Mountain Care, Vermont would end up with a two-tier system Green Mountain Care for ordinary people, and prompt, premium care for those who can pay for it. That would fly in the face of the sacred principles of universal health care, where everybody pays and everybody gets whatever care the system can afford to deliver.
Of course, one of those sacred principles is (5) Every Vermonter should be able to choose his or her health care providers. Apparently that principle has already gone down the drain.
Its worth doing what the Green Mountain Care advocates resolutely refuse to do: look at 39 years of single-payer in Quebec, just 60 miles north of Montpelier.
After years of health problems, including a hip replacement, George Zeliotis of Montreal got fed up waiting in declining health while the hard-pressed Quebec Medicare system delayed offering him treatment. So he went to his doctor, Jacques Chaloulli, and offered to pay him for health care. The government forbade it, and the two of them went to court.
In 2005 the Supreme Court of Canada struck down Quebecs prohibition on private contracting between patient and doctor. The court held that prolonged waiting is a denial of the access to health care promised by the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms.
The lead opinion in the decision identified the issue as being whether the prohibition is justified by the need to preserve the integrity of the public system. Justice Deschamps concluded that it was not, that long waits for medical care were Quebecs form of rationing scarce health care dollars, that the practice resulted in needless deaths, and that the prohibited private health care would likely have saved those lives.
The provinces defense of its prohibition is precisely the rationale for totalitarianism: to preserve the integrity of the (constipated, bureaucratic, unworkable) public system. That thought would be familiar to the late fascist dictator of Italy, Benito Mussolini, with his motto, everything for the state, nothing against the state, nothing outside the state.
Gov. Shumlins grand scheme of universal single-payer health care can work, on paper, only where the government completely controls the medical universe. By preserving the boards power to drive out any doctor-patient private-pay alternative to Green Mountain Care, the 94 defenders of Act 48s power to destroy any and all private options have cast their lot with the forces of totalitarianism. The voters should emphatically remind them that the first word of our states motto is Freedom.

Q:how to tie a bow tieAsked on 2/25/2014 by Don from San Diego Ca
1 answer
A:Place the tie around your neck, under the collar. With the right end extending 1.5" longer than the left, cross the longer end over the shorter one and pull it through the loop to create a knot. With the short end, create a loop where the knot will be, then bring the long end over the short end loop. With the long end, form a loop and push it through the previous knot. Pull the loops to tighten.Answered on 2/25/2014 by Community Answer from None

There's a good chance billionaire industrialists and liberal whipping boys Charles and David Koch are making money off your weekly shopping cart.
If you've ever bought Brawny paper towels, Angel Soft toilet paper or Dixie cups, you've contributed cash to Georgia-Pacific, a subsidiary of Koch Industries Koch Industries.
If you've purchased a pair of yoga pants containing Lycra or a Stainmaster carpet, you've indirectly handed the Kochs your money: Koch Industries bought Invista, the world's largest fiber and textiles company, in 2004 from DuPont.
You didn't know that, did you? Neither did Darcy Burner, a Democrat running for Washington state's 1st Congressional District seat — but once she learned how many household products are manufactured by the conservative billionaires' companies, she decided to take action.
"Our democracy has been bought and sold by people like the Kochs," Burner said, citing the Citizens United ruling that allows tax exempt nonprofits like Americans for Prosperity, founded by David Koch, to donate anonymously in unlimited amounts to candidates and causes. "When I'm out talking to voters, they say they want a way to take action."
At her recent Netroots Nation keynote address, Burner pitched her plan of action to an audience of progressive bloggers: a smartphone app allowing shoppers to swipe bar codes to check whether the Kochs, or other right-wing supporters, are behind a product on the shelves.
Harvard computer science grad Burner has some experience with all things tech herself: she spent years as a programmer at Microsoft Microsoft and Lotus before entering politics. Her 2012 Congressional bid will mark her third attempt to represent a swath of suburban Seattle popular with fellow techies.
She put her expertise to use designing a mock interface for the app (above, right). Now she's just waiting on the right team to build the back end.
Since her Netroots speech, she's had some phone calls from developers hoping to step in and create the app. ("I've found that if you pitch an idea in front of 2400 very smart bloggers, usually they'll make it happen," she said.)
As well as allowing a shopper to see the names of the moguls behind a product, the app will offer ratings on, for instance, the environmental record of the company in question, as well as its record on women's and workers' rights. The app will then suggest alternative brands that might better cater to the shopper's political ideology.
"We already have folks in the habit of doing price checks with their phones," Burner said. "This is an extension of that idea."
Update: As of May 2013, this app exists! Well, a version of it, anyway. Read here.

A risk factor is something that increases your chances of getting a disease or condition.
It is possible to develop bladder cancer with or without the risk factors listed below. However, the more risk factors you have, the greater your likelihood of developing bladder cancer. If you have a number of risk factors, ask your doctor what you can do to reduce your risk.
Risk factors for bladder cancer include the following:
Smoking Tobacco
A large number of cases of bladder cancer are associated with smoking tobacco. The risk of developing bladder cancer increases depending on how many years you have smoked, how many cigarettes you smoked per day, and whether you inhale the smoke.
Industrial Chemicals
Exposure to certain chemicals greatly increases a person's risk of bladder cancer. Workers who are most likely to be exposed to such cancer-causing agents include the following:
- Painters
- Workers in the dye, leather, paper, rubber, and metal industries
- Barbers and beauticians
- Plumbers
- People working with dry-cleaning chemicals
- Tar and asphalt workers
- Truck drivers
Treatment with the drug cyclophosphamide can also increase your risk of bladder cancer. This drug is used in chemotherapy and to treat certain autoimmune disorders, such as lupus .
Pioglitazone also increases the risk of bladder cancer. This medication is used to treat type 2 diabetes.
Bladder Irritation
Conditions that allow your bladder to be chronically irritated over a long period of time can increase your chance of developing bladder cancer. Irritating conditions include the following:
- The presence of a bladder catheter—A bladder catheter is a tube used to drain the bladder when the bladder is not able to do so normally; these are often required by people who have certain types of paralysis.
- Bladder stones—These are occur from abnormal build up of substances that create a stone-like formation in the bladder.
- Bladder infections left untreated over a long period of time
- Infection with certain parasites that live in the bladder, particularly Schistosomiasis . This parasite is not found in the United States, but is common in tropical regions of the world.
Radiation Therapy
You may have a slightly increased risk of developing bladder cancer if you've had:
- Radiation therapy for cervical or ovarian cancer
- Chemotherapy for cervical or ovarian cancer
- Human papillomavirus infection
- A history of gonorrhea if you are male
There is a risk of bladder cancer in those with diabetes. Manage your diabetes to reduce your risk.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The America East conference announced Tuesday afternoon that senior Ben Jenkins (Francestown, N.H.) and junior Wesley Dinnan (Juneau, Alaska) of the University New Hampshire men's cross country team, and senior Kim Povec (Holland-Patent, N.Y.) and junior Courtney Hamer (Andover, Mass.) of the women's squad, were named to the 2008 America East All-Academic Team.
|Kim Povec
Jenkins, a mechanical engineering major with a 3.87 grade point average, recently finished 40th at the NCAA Northeast Regional and was the second fastest Wildcat. Jenkins also finished ninth at the America East Championships to help UNH capture its third straight title and was 11th at the New England Championships.
Dinnan, an English journalism major with a 3.35 GPA, placed 75th at the Regional. Dinnan was 17th at the conference championship and 10th at New Englands as the top UNH runner.
Povec, a nutrition major with a 3.76 GPA, was the top UNH finisher at the Regional, the conference championship and New Englands, placing 31st, seventh and 12th, respectively.
Hamer, a civil engineering major with a 3.62 GPA, was 75th at the Regional. Hamer finished 19th at the conference championship and 59th at New Englands.
For the last two academic years, the All-Academic Team has been selected based on a formula. Starting this year, America East has adopted a more objective approach based on feedback from various coaches' groups and administrators. The process will now resemble the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-America program. Student-athletes worthy of consideration will now be nominated by member sports information directors and voted on by committee of SIDs, academic advisors and faculty representatives from all nine member institutions.
All-Academic squads for team sports are based on the number of
athletes that participate in a contest at one time or are made up
of 10 student-athletes for individual sports. To be nominated for
the distinction, student-athletes must be a starter or important
reserve for their team and participate in at least 50 percent of
their team's games or competitions. In the classroom,
student-athletes must have a 3.30 GPA and have completed at least
one calendar year at their institution. Freshmen are not eligible
for consideration.

On June 17, 2012, during the early morning hours, the personal vehicle of Antlers Police Officer Stewart Stanfield was found with the rear portion of the vehicle burned. On June 19, 2012, Antlers Chief of Police, Dewayne Morgan, requested OSBI assistance into this matter.
On June 29, 2012, OSBI Agent Steven Carter interviewed Jim Preston Rosson. During the interview Rosson stated that on June 16, 2012, he was approached by an Antlers Police Officer about "stalking" a female at the Antlers Street Dance. Rosson stated he was angry due to the way he was treated by the officers.
After leaving the street dance, Rosson went to this residence and obtained a box with trash and newspapers. Rosson also obtained a lamp oil bottle and placed it inside the box. Rosson t hen walked to the Police Department and located what he remembered as a gray or blue car located in the alley between the Police Department and the Fire Department.
Rosson stated that he assumed the car was a police officer's vehicle and poured the lamp oil on the box of trash and newspaper and slid the box underneath the rear of the vehicle. Rosson then lit the box on fire and left the scene. Rosson returned to his residence on foot.
Rosson is being charged with Third Degree Arson, a felony. This crime is punishable by a fine of up to $10,000 or imprisonment for up to 15 years, or both.
Rosson's bond was set in t he amount of $25,000. His Preliminary hearing is set for July 11, 2012 at 9:30 a.m.

Five Flavored Green Teas You Can Bring Home to Mom
Though the vast spectrum of green teas can range in flavors from delicately floral to beguilingly vegetal, from fruity to earthy and back again, that hasn't kept tea blenders from the temptation to enhance. Flavored tea—from the traditional to the outré—is a concept somehow less brow-furrowing than, say, flavored creamer: at its most successful an organic process of blending harmonious botanicals towards the end product of a sum greater than (or more novel than) its parts.

Now that it is Springtime in the southern hemisphere, it is typical for most people to want to shed the extra weight that they may have put on over the winter months. It has been my experience in dealing with patients on a regular basis, that moderation is key and a plan and specific goals to work toward achieving helps assist in a successful springtime exercise program. The other key to remember is what you eat. Exercise without watching what goes in the mouth, will not bring the health benefits as doing both. Same with only watching what you eat, without exercising. The two go hand in hand.
One big exercise that is commonly chosen is running. I have heard people say that they'll take that up and get out in the fresh air, and the weight will drop, and it will look after itself.
Wrong! Running to lose weight and/or keep fit can invariably lead to running injuries. I highly recommend educating yourself, doing some 'homework' and getting informed on some of the possible injuries associated with running. Then make a wise and informed decision if running is the best option for you.
Many Running Injuries Are Caused By Overuse
When you think about taking up running, or just starting to run, it's best to learn how to prevent running injuries.
The Most Common Running Injuries
• Knee
• ITB (Iliotibial Band)
• Foot
• Calf
Chondromalacia, or Runner's Knee is due to wearing of the cartilage under the patella (kneecap) when the patella is tracked incorrectly while running, causing pain in the knee.
Lateral or side knee pain is usually due to Iliotibial Band (ITB) Syndrome. This band runs from the outside of the pelvis, over the hip and knee and inserts just below the knee. The ITB is meant to stabilize the knee while running. If this gets irritated, it can get inflamed and cause pain in the knee or band itself. This leads to ITB Syndrome.
Another contributor to knee pain as well as foot pain, is Plantar Fasciitis. The plantar fascia is the thick fibrous connective tissue on the bottom of the foot. It's job is to absorb the shock of the running motion. Plantar fasciitis is when this tissue gets inflamed due to wear and tear, resulting in pain. This can be temporary or a long-term problem.
Shin splints are usually caused by stepping up the volume of training too quickly. Achilles tendonitis can cause leg pain and or ankle pain, and may eventually lead to rupture of the tendon itself.
Running May Lead To Back & Pelvis Injuries
Besides the injuries listed above, some runners may suffer from acute back pain, pelvis or hip pain, groin pain, and chronic back pain. Running can also irritate the discs in the lower back, which may lead to things such as Sciatica.
Running Injuries Take Long To Heal
Running injuries may take months, or even longer to heal, easily putting fitness and weight loss programs on the back burner. There are also the injuries that may lead to other problems that cause long term effects that can irritate other areas of the body. I believe that it is wise to learn about the preventative measures so that we can make better choices and better decisions on the type of exercise we undertake.
Running for exercise is not for everyone – but if you currently run, or are thinking of taking up running for exercise, then the following may be of benefit to you:
Useful Tips For Preventing Running Injuries
1. Strengthen the areas which are vulnerable.
2. Buy and utilize the correct footwear.
3. Use the Correct running posture
4. Warm up before your running workout.
5. Gradually step up your running program.
6. Cool down appropriately to minimize stiffness and soreness.
Check with a health professional such as a chiropractor or sports massage therapist for advice that is unique to your specific needs. Each body is different, so to adopt generic advice is not wise, nor will it assist in prevention or overall achieving of goals.
Preventing injuries involves listening to your body and basic common sense, so make sure that is Number One on your list!

Recipe by Toni
"A Thanksgiving classic. Originally submitted to ThanksgivingRecipe.com."
Watch video tips and tricks
12 ounces
1 cup
white sugar
1 cup
orange juice
Okay, after nearly 31 years of cooking, my search for the "definitive" cranberry sauce recipe is over! This recipe is fantastic!! I doubled it, split the sugar between half white and half brown and added 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon (next time I will take that down to 1/4 teaspoon). I cooked this for almost 20 minutes. This was the best cranberry sauce I have ever had! I used to just resort to canned because I never seemed to be able to make a "good" cranberry sauce. Toni, thank you for sharing this recipe, it was another huge hit on our Thanksgiving table this past weekend. (We had to celebrate early this year.)
Way too sweet. Using orange juice over water adds extra sugar/calories and taste that takes away from the tart nature of the cranberries. I would also recommend less sugar. No reason to take healthy cranberries and ruin them in a sugar-laden sauce.
1822 Ratings
I mixed this recipe with another one I use. I boiled the cranberries and sugar in 1/2 cup OJ and 1/2 cup unsweetened pineapple juice until they popped. Then I added 6 oz. of fresh raspberries and mashed the whole thing. Finally, I added 1/4 cup grand marinier, a 14 oz. can of crushed pineapple (drained), and some crushed peacans. I cooked the mixture on medium heat until thickened, and refrigerated overnight. Yum!
This is so good! I am a big fan of the canned jellied cranberry sauce, but now I am a convert. Never again will I buy cranberry sauce, I will always make it. This was so easy to make...and SO DELICIOUS! And yes,cranberries do pop when boiled, so put the splatter guard on and let the kids listen. I let them cook longer than 10 minutes just so it would get a little thicker, but after it is cooled it does thicken up more. While they were boiling I gave them a good mash or two with my potato masher and the consistency was perfect. Thank you Toni!
I made this recipe this Thanksgiving, but changed it slightly. I added about 1 tsp grated orange rind and after the berrys were cooked down I added about 1/8 cup of Grand Marinier.
Not too many of my family like cranberries in any shape for form, but my nephew ( 13 years old ) loved it and asked to take some home. I loved it and even put it on top of my oatmeal the next morning. The juice was wonderful. I would make it again.
I was frantic for a quick and easy recipe as my other cranberry did not turn out as expected. I chose this one. As most of the reviewers pointed out, this was runny, but the flavor was great and the color was beautiful. Adding a touch of grand marnier is ingenious. If you want a more gelled sauce, simply cut the OJ to 1/2 cup! Once they start popping mash them with the back of a spoon. This will gel in just a few hours in the fridge. As it is, it is more of a delicious cranberry preserve - very spreadable for sandwiches!
Great recipe. If you like it on the thick side like me I would recommend cooking it a bit longer.
To give it a little more flavour I added only 3/4 of a cup of orange juice and after it was cooked I added 1/4 cup of Grand Marnier. MMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Salmonella Verification Testing Program: Monthly Reports for Establishments by Performance Category
FSIS is publishing results of completed sample sets from its Salmonella Verification Program for young chicken (broiler) slaughter establishments in performance Category 3 (see information below). At this time, FSIS is not listing establishments in Category 1 and other establishments that do not have enough sets completed as required for Category 1. FSIS is looking at establishing a category for these establishments in the future. FSIS is also not currently listing establishments in Category 2.
FSIS posts updated results of completed Salmonella verification sample sets for young chicken (broiler) and turkey slaughter establishments on or about the 15th of each month. Each month's posting replaces that of the previous month. FSIS is considering publishing category results for establishments in other product classes.
- Category 3 Young Chicken (Broiler) Establishments (May 13, 2015; PDF Only)
The criteria applied here for publication of individual young chicken establishments differ from those for publication of aggregate young chicken data, and the two reports should not be used for comparisons.
Addition Information
Publication of Salmonella sample set results for young chicken establishments was first presented in a Federal Register Notice of February 27, 2006 (71 FR 9772-9777) and was recently described in detail in a Federal Register Notice of January 28, 2008 ( 73 FR 4767-4774). Publication of lists online began in April 2008. A Federal Register Notice in March 2011 announced July 2011 implementation of the new performance standards.
FSIS has decided that it is appropriate to evaluate test results in a manner that ensures that there is an 80% probability that establishments actually operating at the acceptable performance level will achieve results that are deemed to satisfy the criteria. Based on this criteria, the performance standard for Salmonella in young chickens is 7.5 percent, which translates into 5 positive samples out of a 51 sample set for meeting the performance standard.
Category 1 establishments have results from their two most recent completed sample sets that are at or below half of the standard. For young chickens this would be at or below 4 percent (2 positive samples out of a set of 51).
Category 2 establishments have results from their most recent completed sample set that are higher than half of the standard but do not exceed the standard. For young chickens this would be above 4 percent (3 or more positive samples out of a set of 51) but at or below 7.5 percent (5 positive samples out of 51).
Category 3 establishments have results from their most recent completed sample set that exceed the standard for Salmonella in young chickens. For young chickens this would be above 7.5 percent (6 or more positive samples out of 51).
Other establishments have results for their most recent sets that are at or below half of the standard but do not have the two recent successive completed sets at that level as required for Category 1. These establishments are now categorized as 2T. FSIS recognizes that these establishments have improved their process control and are in transition to Category 1.
Aggregate results for Categories 1, 2T, and 2 will be posted in the quarterly report. This information will be used by the Agency for internal analysis.

Dorsey: Evergreen Review closing its doors?Written by John Dorsey | | firstname.lastname@example.com
A few weeks ago I'm sitting in the basement of a bookstore in Cleveland Heights waiting for my girlfriend to read a few poems, when I get a piece of disheartening news, the Evergreen Review may be closing its doors forever.
I had seen this coming for a while now, since the death of Editor and Grove Press founder Barney Rosset in February 2012. Still I'm blown away. Somehow I thought they would reinvent themselves yet again, rise from the ashes, whatever. Evergreen, which began in 1957 as a print publication, and ran in that format until 1973, published work by authors like Albert Camus, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Susan Sontag, Allen Ginsberg, Samuel Beckett, Henry Miller, Bertolt Brecht, and the list goes on and on. Let's just say some of the most important literary thinkers of the second half of the 20th Century.
They reappeared on the scene in 1998, once again under Rosset's direction, to both publish and mentor a whole new generation of the world's literary elite. Only this time their format was all electronic. And then this news of their possible closing, sitting there on their Facebook page for the entire world to see. The thought literally makes me tear up a little bit.
Why am I'm sharing this with you? For a few reasons. The first being that they are looking for submissions and why shouldn't Toledo authors get a chance to be a part of history? More on that in a second. My second reason is that it has me thinking about the death of the magazine, both as an outlet and as a steppingstone for writers at every stage of their career.
Look around you, everywhere you turn these days there seems to be another print on demand service, from Lulu to CreateSpace, they're everywhere and just getting cheaper every day. While this may seem like a good thing on the surface, I'm just not sure.
I mean, don't get me wrong, it's nice to see the power of publishing back firmly in the hands of the people, a million potential Walt Whitmans just waiting for their chance to shine. That all sounds great, but along with all of this progress in the tech revolution, I've noticed a rather disturbing trend, a lot of young authors are bypassing magazine publishing entirely and are going straight to book publication.
At this point, you may be saying, so what? What's the big deal? When I came up in the world of DIY print magazines 20 years ago, you toiled for years in the hopes that someone might notice what you were doing and offer to do a book for you. You built a name for yourself, an audience for your work and not just your mom and the rest of the Facebook faithful, but readers that met you for the first time on the page. I'll admit I had a hard time making the jump to online publications, but in the end a magazine is a magazine, I guess. A few months ago, I even had a bookstore owner tell me, "Oh John, people just aren't buying those anymore." He was referring to non academic literary magazines. So this column isn't so much about the possible impending death of one great literary magazine, but the death of literary tradition. Has the literary magazine outlived its usefulness? I hope not. For me the literary magazine was more than just a venue for career advancement, it was and still is a place to find out what you like and maybe just maybe make a few friends along the way.
Think about it and while you're at it send some work to the Evergreen Review at email@example.com and visit www.evergreenreview.com A vital part of our history may be fading fast.
Until next time…keep your pencil sharp.
John Dorsey is a widely published poet. His work has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize.

WILLIAMSON — A father and his stepdaughter were arrested Wednesday night on drug trafficking charges.
Kenneth "Bear" Woods, 45, of Taylorville, and Corrina "Corkie" Smith, 32, of Varney, were arrested by members of the Mingo County Sheriff's Department.
Calling it "a family affair," Mingo County Task Force Commander, C.D. Rockel, told the Daily News that the pair had been indicted by the Mingo County Grand Jury earlier on Wednesday. A total of 13 people were indicted, with six of them being sealed and pertaining to drugs. Woods and Smith were two of the six sealed indictments.
Woods was charged with two counts of delivery of Oxycodone, a schedule II substance, and two counts of conspiracy to deliver Oxycodone.
Smith was charged with one count of delivery of Oxycodone and one count of conspiracy to deliver Oxycodone.
Both were arraigned and lodged, as of presstime, within the Southwestern Regional Jail, in Holden.
Executing two indictments the day they were presented, Rockel said that he expected more drug trafficking arrests "in the immediate future."
Joining Rockel and the MCSD in the arrests were Administrative Alternative Response Officer, David Stratton, and Home Confinement Director, Kevin Wilson.
The commander also said that three people who were arrested as part of "Operation Zero Tolerance," earlier this month would face additional charges from the grand jury. Names were not immediately available.
He also said that one of the people arrested in the massive round up, Jason Thompson, pleaded Wednesday to his charges and was sentenced by Judge Michael Thornsbury. Rockel said that Thompson received 1 to 3 years.

WW, thanks for the links, but (as ever) the fonts do not work on my Mac. One of these days, I may just give up using cheap, old, used computers...
I hope this post does not duplicate anything previously done here, but I'm still fairly new here, and have little sense of the history of the discussions here. I got the germ of this idea from the religion sub-forum over at abovetopsecret.com. I am one of the Christians over there, locked in endless debate with the skeptics and scoffers, who seems locked into a mindset, but then, I'm sure they would say the same about us.First, a chart of the Hebrew alphabet, but not from the usual standpoint. This chart, which I cut and pasted from somewhere on the www, is concerned with the very ancient, "primitive" meanings of the letters. NAME OF LETTERS INTERPRETATION OF SYMBOL, WORD, OR LETTER Rendered in EnglishALEPH An Ox or Bullock, a sacrifice or at-one-ment. Its numerical value is ONE.BETH A House or Tent, a dwelling or tabernacle, in, among, within, etc.GIMEL A Camel, like a camel's hump, heap, collect, high.DALETH A Door or Gate, lid, valve.HE Lo, see, behold, (therefore) a lattice or window for that purpose.VAV A Peg, Nail or Hook, therefore, wherefore, then, that, in order that, so that, etc.ZAYIN A Weapon, a shining sword, brightness, light.CHETH An Enclosure, fenced in, ark, refuge.TETH A Serpent, like a serpent, rolled, twisted, entwined.YOD The Hand, the right hand, to strike or pierce, a stroke, a blow.KAPH The Hollow or Palm of the Hand, curved, concave, a valley or basin.LAMEDH A Goad, towards, into, unto, until, upon, even to, besides, etc.MEM Water, waves, a flood.NUN A Fish, to sprout, to put forth, Noah, (as one from whom all are propagated).SAMEKH A Fulcrum, prop, lever, to help, to sustain, to uphold, the hinge of a mason's apron, a ladder or line connecting the lower with the higher, the Holy Ghost.AYIN The Eye, to flow, to flow out, a fountain.PE The Mouth, to breathe, to blow, a side or quarter of the heavens, region, part, quarter.TSADHE A Scythe or Reaping-hook, just, pertains to the harvest or retribution. Tsadok is Jupiter or justice (in Sanscrit, karma).QOPH Occiput, back of the head, to move in a circle.RESH Head, first, foremost, beginning, front.Rosh Means a foremost or most northern nation.SHIN Tooth, a sharp rock, cliff, crag. The Almighty (Shaddi) if seen from the front, but Satan if seen from behind.TAU A Sign or Mark, cross, a symbol, a token.There are three letters of interest to us here, Yod, He, and Vav. [I wish I could place the Hebrew letter form by the English name, but I have not been successful in downloading a useful Hebrew font onto my Word for Mac program. Maybe somebody can give me a hint.] Anyway, if you take the Tetragrammaton, YHVH, or Yod, He, Vav, He, and simply plug in those "primitive" letter meanings, you get: The Hand, Behold, the Nail, Behold. Read it backwards in the Hebrew manner, and it means "Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand," hmmmm...could that be Jesus?!Jesus is the God of the OT!
There's a good study on Bible Truths called "the enigma of God" that goes into this in greater detail.Love these bananas

WILLIAMSON - Several domestic violence arrests have been made in the county by West Virginia State Police.
According to court records, Ryan Perkins, 26, of Meador, was staying at the home of Linda Perkins, when he took Linda Perkins' purse, which contained $120 of assorted medications. Ryan Perkins was arrested by Tpr. J.J. Miller, charged with misdemeanor larceny.

- Alumnus spearheads philanthropic journey
During an October trip to Nepal, Jordan Schweiger '06 helped build a home now shared by six people.
Several Salem-area teenagers, including Madison Hall '16 (center) learned the rigors of home construction while visiting Nepal.
Madison Hall '16
Current News
Alumnus and WU student helped provide homes to Nepal residents
After rescue workers saved the lives of his two young sons, Jordan Schweiger '06 was committed to repaying the kindness.
Three years later, he found a way by enlisting the help of local high school students to build homes for Nepal residents.
"Two life flights in a day led me to reexamine everything important to me," says Schweiger, whose sons have since recovered from the hiking accident. "I wanted to pay it forward."
More than 50 students raised about $22,000 for the cause. Schweiger, owner of Good Well Real Estate in Salem, added another $35,000 in donations from the Salem and Mt. Angel chapters of Habitat for Humanity.
With the money, Schweiger and the students funded the construction of 50-plus homes. Five of those students — and two of their parents — accompanied Schweiger to Nepal in October to build one of the houses.
Madison Hall '16 was among the student travelers.
"I thought this was a cool opportunity," says Hall, a graduate of South Salem High School. "The people I met there are so amazing. I'm so glad we got to do something for them because they deserve it."
In Nepal, Hall and Schweiger built a 500-square-foot house for six people, most of whom worked alongside the volunteers.
"The whole experience made me feel even more privileged," Schweiger says. "Now my focus has turned to how I can create an even larger project from the seeds of this one. I'm pioneering a one-to-one model in real estate, where buying or selling one home in the U.S.A. builds one home in a third-world nation. "
Taking to heart Willamette's motto, "Not unto ourselves alone are we born," Hall says her work in Nepal has influenced her for the better. Philanthropy, she added, will always be a part of her life.
"I will probably do another international build this summer, either in Portugal or Zambia," says Hall, who volunteers at the Habitat for Humanity office in Salem. "It feels good to help make people's lives easier in some way. "
If interested in leadership opportunities in Schweiger's new project, call him at 503-375-6205 or email him at email@example.com
