Sheryl - For any prospective college student, college planning is changing because of a move toward cost transparency. The federal government requires all colleges receiving federal money (which is most of them) to install a net price calculator on their Web sites by Oct. 2011. Various high schools, Veterans Advantage, the Financial Planning Association, and the Independent Educational Consultants Association recommend a service called the College Cost & Planning Report, which custom calculates a student's aid eligibility and net prices based on the student's academic and financial circumstances. Whether a student uses a consumer service or a college's net price calculator, it's important to know how much aid - grants, work-study, and loans - will be available to you specifically from each college so you can truly plan ahead BEFORE applying. (And get the best deal.) Only a few colleges have posted net price calculators. But before long knowing net price will be essential to college planning.

Getting There
If traveling Route 9W south of the Mid Hudson Bridge, take a left at the second traffic light onto Macks Lane, a dead end road. The trailhead is on the left. Park on the street.
Today's tip: Franny Reese Preserve
Scenic Hudson's Franny Reese Preserve in Highland encompasses 250 acres of the forested bluff just south of the Mid Hudson Bridge. The highlights of this preserve are a unique view that overlooks the bridge, impressive ruins and solitude.
This young preserve is relatively unknown. Some of the trails are still being developed, and it takes a sharp eye to follow some of them.
After parking on Macks Lane, follow the carriage road into the preserve. You will reach an intersection of trails with several choices. Ignore the power line right-of-way, and the choices are three: go straight, or take one of two left-hand turns.
Those who want a short walk with the best view should take the first left. A short uphill climb reveals a view overlooking the Mid Hudson Bridge. This is how to reach the top of the cliffs on the Highland side.
From this vantage point, you can see all of Poughkeepsie, a swath of the Hudson River and the traffic flowing over the bridge. If one of the purposes of hiking is to gain perspective on your daily routine, and it is, this hike is perfect. There's no more thought provoking way to consider the daily commute than to watch it from above.
For those wishing to take a longer hike, return to the trail intersection. Take the trail that goes uphill. Within a few steps, you will see white Scenic Hudson blazes that you will follow for the entirety of your hike. The trail climbs uphill, then dips and turns left on the side of the bluff. Watch closely for the white blazes and, in one section, pink ribbons, to keep to the trail.
The highlight of this wooded trail comes near its end, when the remnants of an old stone wall hem the trail on both sides. Soon, the ruins of stone buildings appear in the woods. The one-time grandeur of the structures is evident, but time has worn the buildings into shells.
At the last of the ruins, the trail ends at a T intersection. Turn left and head up the hill. You'll soon come to the same trail intersection. Continue straight to return to the trailhead.Visited Franny Reese Preserve? Send pictures of your fall excursions to email@example.com.

Jamie Levey joins Adams, Cameron & Co. Realtors
posted Jul 9, 2013 - 4:00:33pm
Jamie Levey has joined the diverse and growing staff at Adams Cameron & Co. Realtors.
Levey, a native of Cooperstown, NY, moved to Central Florida at the age of 3. He began working in signs in 1991, opening Signs on Time Inc. in 2000. After selling his company in 2008, he went on to earn a certification for law enforcement at Daytona State College. Shortly thereafter, he accepted a position as VP of Production for an international electroluminescent company before opening a business consulting firm.
"I have always been a relationship-driven person, and I look forward to helping my customers achieve their dreams of homeownership," says Levey.
He brings more than 20 years of experience in the sign and graphics industry, international business relations and product training, business and product development, as well as trade show and marketing background to the real estate market.
Levey is a member of the Daytona Beach Area Association of Realtors, the Hometown Business Alliance, the Florida Trail Association, and the Appalachian Trail Conservancy. He is past co-chair for the Volusia Home Builders Association membership committee as well as various Chamber of Commerce groups, and is a former member of the executive board of Professionals in Business.
His involvement in the community includes volunteer work and FavorDisk, a charity-driven personal project. He says he enjoys backpacking, boating, motorcycle riding and healthy living.
In 2006, he earned the Volusia Home Builders Rookie of the Year award.
"I enjoy working with people," Levey says. "The market is coming up, and I've had a lot of good feedback from people. That really influenced my decision (to get into real estate)."
Founded in 1963, Adams, Cameron and Co. is the largest real estate company in the combined Volusia and Flagler counties, with over 200 agents. Adams, Cameron & Co. is pleased to support the area's residential and commercial real estate needs by bringing the most resources available with a pleasant family-run atmosphere.

Full detailed profile on Dorian Lord Vickers Played by Robin Strasser on One Life To Live Daytime Soap Opera.
Robin Strasser
Birthday: 1945-05-07
Kelly, Kevin and Dorian look in on baby Zane. Kelly wants the baby's last name to be a Buchanan. Clint and Vicki join them, agree that Zane should be Buchanan. Clint and Vicki give them the news that Spencer is not a Buchanan. Natalie shows up, wishing she could share the news with John. After a while, Clint, Vicki, and Natalie leave� Dorian wants to stay and help Kelly and Kevin, but they ask her to go home, too.
Michael tells Kelly that she had a boy, then rushes the baby off. Dorian, Clint and Vicki burst in to make sure Kelly is okay. Michael comes back, says that they're doing everything they can for the baby. That's when Kelly gets the devastating news that her baby only has a small chance of survival. Michael tells Kelly to rest, says that the baby needs her to be strong, then he leaves.
Alone with Kevin, Kelly breaks down, and Kevin comforts her. He tells Kelly he'll be there for her. With Michael examining Kelly, Kevin goes to Clint and Vicki, wondering if he did the right thing by not involving Spencer. Dorian worries how Kelly will get through this. Michael comes out, says Kelly will be moved to a room soon. Kevin goes back to Kelly where she says her baby needs a name, needs to know that he's loved. Zane� Kelly names the baby Zane, meaning God's grace.
Bo tells Clint, Vicki and Dorian that Spencer wants to come and save the baby. Vicki wants to tell Kelly about Spencer's offer to help, but Dorian insists on telling Kelly. Bo says if Kelly wants Spencer to help her, he'll make it happen.
After Dorian, Clint and Vicki go in to see Kelly, Michael tells them to leave, says that he needs to deliver the baby. They tell Kelly about Spencer, and Kelly thinks that Spencer can save her baby but asks Kevin to decide.
Kevin brings Kelly to the hospital. She's having contractions. Michael tells Kelly to remain calm as they rush her into a room. Kevin screams that it's too soon, to please do whatever they can to save the baby. Michael comes out, says that if they can't stop the contractions, Kelly could give birth tonight, that if the baby is born this early, it'll be an uphill battle. As Clint comments that he called all of the family, Dorian storms in, angry because no one called her.
Kevin sits by Kelly's bedside as she goes through the contractions.
Dorian accuses Vicki of trying to takes everything from her. Clint shows up, confirms that he, too, knows about everything that's happened, but he says that Dorian needs to take responsibility for everything she's done to Adriana. Vicki says that if Dorian doesn't admit that she's wrong, Dorian will lose Adriana for good. Dorian thinks that Vicki just wants to take Adriana and Clint away from her! Vicki leaves�
Clint agrees with Vicki, and tries to leave, too, but Dorian asks him to hear her out. He says okay. They go back to Dorian's house where Clint asks her why she set up the dinner at Capricorn. Dorian expresses that she did it because she wanted to be the one to tell him about Spencer, that she didn't wanted him to think that she was involved in some scheme with David. Surprisingly, Clint believes her.
Dorian tells David that he's ruining her chances of getting Clint back. However, Dorian says she'll never give up on Clint. She goes on to tell David about Adriana locking her in the closet, about pushing Vicki and Clit together! David asks Dorian if she really likes Clint that much, and Dorian responds by saying she's falling in love with Clint. David pours a cold pitcher of water over Dorian's head!
Later at the coffee shop, Dorian sees Vicki talking with Adriana. When she's alone, Dorian goes to Vicki, tells her to stay away from her daughter!
Dorian bangs on the closet door, screaming for David to let her out, that she has a date with Clint! Suddenly, she starts screaming louder, starts having a panic attack. Outside the door, Adriana smirks. Dorian continues to cry, to beg for someone to help her, to let her out. Suddenly, Adriana lets her out, helps her up. Adriana tells Dorian that she was the one who locked her in the closet. When Dorian asks why, Adriana says she learned to be cruel from Dorian, says she'll never forgive her for what she did. Adriana leaves.

ISHAKA Toolkit
A Guide to Girls' Economic and Social Empowerment Through a Solidarity Group Savings and Loan Platform
In fiscal year 2013, we worked in 86 countries, supporting 927 humanitarian aid and development projects to reach more than 97 million people. We carried out programs in the following 10 countries throughout Latin America and the Caribbean:
Chef Mendelsohn met with potato farmers in rural Peru to hear how they have gained access to seeds, technology and new markets.
Since 2002, CARE Brasil has been contributing to processes of change in the Costa do Cacau (Cocoa Coast) region, Bahia's south coast.
Three years ago, a massive earthquake destroyed Mireille Henry's home in Haiti, killing her mother and trapping her daughter under the rubble for five hours.
The mother of four lost everything she owned. Mireille didn't even have a spoon to feed her children, she says, or a blanket to keep them warm. She relocated to a field with her family. On the luckiest days, they got to sleep under a tree.
But Mireille has rebuilt her life, through the help of her community and an innovative microsavings program, introduced by CARE to Haiti and Mireille's community in 2011. The program serves the poorest of the poor – people who do not otherwise have access to the types financial services much of the world takes for granted.
A Guide to Girls' Economic and Social Empowerment Through a Solidarity Group Savings and Loan Platform
Empowering Women and Girls in the Fight Against Poverty
CARE's Holistic Approach to Empowering Women and Girls in the Fight Against Poverty
Focusing on theories of change can improve the effectiveness of peacebuilding interventions.
In 1998, CARE worked with 25 institutions in Peru to help pass a law that promoted universal basic education for girls. The law helped to address gender discrimination as well as ensuring that more resources for education reached rural areas of the country. By working with local civic groups, CARE helped to ignite a national movement to broaden girls' access to basic education.
CARE Enterprises bridges the supply/demand gap that exists between formal markets and many of the world's poorest communities.
Push, Pull and Cross-Cutting Strategies
Governments and other stakeholders are meeting in Bonn, Germany, from June 1-12, 2009 to decide what issues to include in the world's next climate change agreement which may be settled as early as December in Copenhagen. This is the kind of detailed technical meeting that frequently gets overlooked but where, in reality, immensely important decisions get made – including whether or not to recognize the needs of people displaced by climate change.

Dear Polaniec (Plontch) Descendants and Researchers:
I just returned from a trip to Poland, where I visited the
former shtetl of Polaniec.My grandmother and many of my ancestors are
buried in the Polaniec cemetery. Together with members of the Poland
Jewish Cemeteries Restoration Project (PCRP) team, a school teacher and
a Jewish resident of Polaniec, we visited the mayor, toured the town and
the cemetery and saw former Jewish sites, including the site of the old
synagogue, the cheder and the mikvah.
The cemetery is in total ruins without walls and gates and
without any visible matzevot. We discovered there is a mass grave in the
cemetery with no marker, where the Germans murdered many Jews. The only
matzevot known are presently stored in the basement of the Town Hall for
safekeeping. We have photos of these. Our experience is that more
matzevot may be discovered in the cemetery from under the debris of 60
years of neglect, once the cemetery is cleaned. Others may be slowly
returned by residents as we begin restoration work and the news gets out
to the townspeople.
Why should you be interested in restoring the cemetery?
For many reasons, including:
-the cemetery is sacred ground where our ancestors are buried: for some
of us, they are parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins;
-we need to honor the memories of those murdered in the Shoah;
-cemetery care and restoration is among the greatest mitzvot one can do;
-the recovered matzevot are a valuable genealogical resource. We plan to
photograph and translate them and the information will be posted on
What needs to be done and what is needed to get this
project underway?
We would like to have the cemetery cleaned, a new
resurvey made of the site and filed, rebuild the walls and gates and
erect a memorial at the site of the mass grave. Once the work has been
completed we would like as many descendants as possible to join us in a
dedication ceremony in Polaniec. I am asking for your support: in
getting the news of the Polaniec Cemetery Restoration Project to
your family and other descendants of Polaniec and making a donation in
memory of your ancestors. All donations go through Jewish
foundations and every penny of your donation goes for the work in
What is The Poland Jewish Cemetery
Restoration Project?
The PJCRP's mission is to restore all
1200 of the devastated Jewish cemeteries of Poland. See
www.pjcrp.org and as an example the
website of a PJCRP successfully restored cemetery at
www.ozarow.org. The PJCRP is a not
for profit Foundation with 501c3 status. The PJCRP is supported by the
US and Polish Governments and by many Jewish Foundations and
organizations. Rabbi Michael Schudrich, Rabbi of Warsaw and Lodz, is
Halachic Coordinator and my husband, Norman, is Executive Coordinator of
the PJCRP. You can learn how to make a tax deductible contribution for
the "Polaniec Cemetery Restoration Project" by visiting
Please participate in the mitzvah of protecting and restoring
our ancestral cemetery.
Hannah R. Weinberg
Polaniec PJCRP Coordinator
Tel. 716-688-5272
PJCRP Mission Statement:
"Jewish cemetery restoration in Poland is about remembering
and honoring the dead, and the millions slaughtered in the Holocaust,
hundreds of thousands murdered in cemeteries and nearby forests and
buried in mass graves. It is among the greatest mitzvot one can do,
since the dead cannot thank us. It is also about life and the living,
about tikkun olam…repairing the world, reclaiming and reconnecting to
our Jewish heritage, educating youth, tolerance and reconciliation."
This web site is authored and maintained by Michael Gottlieb, whose paternal ancestors lived in Plontch since at least the middle of the 18th century. The site is dedicated to memory of those ancestors, many of whom were slaughtered during the Nazi Holocaust.

It sounds to me like everyone that applies gets a nice shiny medal.There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you. I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain. I will use my mistakes against you. There's no other choice.

Hey, berador, if you post you'll be the bravest guy to come out of the AK boards in years.There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you. I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain. I will use my mistakes against you. There's no other choice.
With people like this Berador clown, It's the little things that show you alot about there mindset, and in this case self-image building fantasy's.

It's things like this that he's plowed alot of time and thought into, and notice (a telling trait) that his personal rank, is unobtainable.
This says alot about his lacking of real life confidence, that his rank (albeit in a forum) is unobtainable to other people, not content with something like "Founder" or the standard "Admin" or "Moderator" he has to conjur a ego stroking title for himself whenever possible, AND obsess its explanation.

Someone actually posted over there for Leo to post a pic or a web address or something to corroborate his story. He got the standard 'you're from Bullshido, troll' response. The same guy also asked Ron about the 100-man tourny, but Ron has not responded yet. Maybe this will finally wake up some of the lemmings over there.

MAC Overall Leader Toledo Battles Division Rival Eastern Michigan on Sunday
TOLEDO, OH - Toledo (25-2, 13-1 MAC) will look to capture its second outright Mid-American Conference regular-season championship in the last three years when it hosts Eastern Michigan (8-19, 6-8 MAC) on Sunday, March 3. Tip-off is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. in Savage Arena.
With a win against the Eagles, UT would hold at least a two-game lead over Ball State (14-13, 11-3 MAC) for the best overall mark in the league with only one regular-season contest remaining. They would also lock up the No. 1 seed in the MAC Tournament for an eighth time in school history.
The Rockets, who are a conference-best No. 43 nationally in the latest RPI rankings, enter Sunday's division showdown in the midst of a 13-game win streak, tied for the fourth-longest unbeaten stretch in school history, following Thursday's 75-42 triumph at Western Michigan.
Junior Andola Dortch paced a balanced Toledo attack with 15 points and six rebounds to help the Midnight Blue & Gold sweep the regular-season series from the Broncos for a fourth time in the last five seasons.
Senior Naama Shafir added 13 points and senior Lecretia Smith and sophomore Inma Zanoguera chipped in 10 points each, as UT surpassed the 70-point plateau for a fourth-consecutive game.
Senior Yolanda Richardson also contributed six points at WMU and in the process became the 24th player in school history to reach the 1,000-career point plateau.
Zanoguera helped UT dominate the boards against its division foe, pulling down a game-high 13 rebounds to collect her second straight double-double and third of the year. As a team, Toledo held a sizable 44-27 cushion on the glass.
The Rockets shot an impressive 50.8 percent (31-of-61) from the field, including 44.4 percent (4-of-9) from three-point land, and a perfect 100.0 percent (9-of-9) from the free throw line to earn their school-record 14th-straight win away from home.
For the season, the Rockets are fueled offensively by the quartet of Shafir, Dortch, Richardson and Zanoguera, who are averaging 12.9, 11.5, 9.5 and 9.0 ppg, respectively. This group accounts for 63.8 percent of the team's scoring.
Toledo will face an EMU squad that has won its last two contests, most recently claiming a 54-45 victory at Northern Illinois on Thursday. Desyree Thomas led the Eagles with 17 points and five rebounds.
Eastern Michigan features an attack paced by Natachia Watkins' 9.8 ppg, 6.1 rpg, 2.1 apg and 1.9 spg. The Eagles are 4-9 away from home this season.
UT and EMU will square off for a second time this season and the 71st time overall. The Rockets defeated the Eagles in the first meeting, 56-40, on Jan. 16 to snap a four-game losing skid against their division rival.
Toledo leads the all-time series, 42-28, but has split the last 10 games vs. EMU.
Following Sunday's matinee, Toledo will wrap up its regular season against Ball State on Wednesday, March 6. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. in Savage Arena.
Prior to Wednesday's contest, UT's five seniors - Kyle Baumgartner, Riley McCormick, Yolanda Richardson, Naama Shafir and Lecretia Smith - will be honored.

Our Vision
Everyone deserves a clean and healthy environment. We are creating a world in which all
communities have clean air and water, where one's life expectancy is not determined by zip code, race or income. Communities of color need access to economic opportunities from the growing green economy, which represents an opportunity to bring good paying jobs and capital to communities disproportionately impacted by climate change.
The Challenge
While climate change and pollution hurt us all, communities of color suffer first and worst.
Existing climate change policies and programs have not adequately addressed
these disparities. Communities of color often lack access to green programs, resources, and
opportunities. Investments in green technologies can both improve the environment and provide pathways out of poverty, but frequently have failed to reach the communities most in need.
Despite a massive U.S. drought, many stakeholders still believe climate change is
made up. Often only the wealthy get to benefit from climate change programs although all utility customers subsidize climate change efforts.
Our Response
Greenlining develops policies to improve public health and environmental quality
for low-income communities and communities of color while bringing "green" dollars to
these communities. We help communities be resilient so they can thrive in the face of climate change. Our current projects include:
- Investing in Disadvantaged Communities – We are ensuring that revenues from California's cap-and-trade program:
• help communities of color adapt to climate change
• create economic opportunities
• protect small businesses
• are returned to ratepayers on their energy bills
Greenlining sponsored and helped pass critical legislation, SB 535, that is helping to achieve many of these goals.
- Energy Efficiency – We work to make sure a fair share of the California Public Utilities Commission's $1 billion annual investment in energy efficiency dollars is used for effective programs that provide access to pathways out of poverty, career-path jobs and real energy savings for our communities, through programs like the Energy Savings Assistance Program. We helped develop on-bill financing programs that help families — including low- and moderate-income families — to access energy efficiency programs.
- Electric Cars and Trucks: Charging Ahead – We were among the first to highlight the obstacles to widespread use of electric cars and trucks in communities of color and low-income neighborhoods in our landmark report, "Electric Vehicles: Who's Left Stranded?" Today, Greenlining is part of Charge Ahead California, a campaign to accelerate transformation of our state's vehicle fleet, put a million zero-emission cars, trucks and buses on California's roads and ensure that all communities have access to clean vehicles.

I am currently finishing the writing of my next book entitled - The Last Rhinos.
Rhino poaching is the new scourge affecting Africa. This high adventure story is a slice of primal Africa following my adventures on Thula Thula game reserve in South Africa and then on into the Congo and Sudan, trying to prevent the extinction of the Northern White Rhino.
Nearly 2 years after its release, The Elephant Whisperer,is still a best seller and receiving excellent reviews!
When South African conservationist, Lawrence Anthony, was asked to accept a herd of 'rogue' wild elephants on his game reserve Thula Thula, his commonsense todl him to refuse. The elephants were notorious escape artists, and would all be killed if he did not take them. Lawrence was the herd's last chance of survival.

Involvement of remote rural communities in conservation and environmental awareness is key. Involving the local Zulu tribes to create the Royal Zulu Biosphere is just that. It benefits the local indigenous peoples, while opening up migration corridors for animals that had previously disappeared, it is dedicated to eco-tourism and rational conservation that benefits the surrounding communities.

I've uploaded a new version with some more elaborate functionality when you press the "TEST WINDOW" before beginning a scrolling capture. That button will engage a process that will try to guess the best settings to capture the window.
Essentially it tries to figure out the optimal way to do a LINE-based scroll (as opposed to a page-based scroll) which can be more reliably overlapped (since page-based scrolling sometimes yields 0 overlap between pages).

Fans search for pleasure with #IndiansSexActs trending as Cleveland Indians continue losing streak
CLEVELAND - It's a tough time to be an Indians fan, so the Tribe faithful are finding new ways to maintain sanity and gain some sense of pleasure.
The latest attempt has taken a somewhat dirty – but entertaining – turn.
After the Indians' 11th straight loss, #IndiansSexActs has popped up as a trending topic in Cleveland. Another loss Wednesday and the team will tie a franchise record for most consecutive losses dating back to 1931.
Fans have gotten creative as they vent their frustration with the team through subtle (and not-so-subtle) innuendos based on past and present players.

Step 1: Disassembling and cleaning
Step 2: Wiring
Important: from here on do the wiring first and then put all the switches in place (and let enough slack)
The blender had a "push-and-hold" button, witch I replaced by an on-off switch of the same size (I could even use the old switch cover).
I disassembled a wall mounted dimmer switch and used it for this lamp. It fitted perfectly, I could even fix it on the original screw holes.
As cable I used an extension cord and cut of the female plug.
When all the wiring is done reassemble without the baseplate.

You raise an interesting point on how sales will do following the end of the Clunkers program. I just updated the story with some information on that subject.
Just some quick numbers here. The Clunkers program really never had a shot of reversing the slide in auto sales this year. In 2007, people bought more than 16 million new cars. Last year, the figure was 13 million. For the first six months of this year, the rate was closer to 9.5 million. So, even if 750,000 people get new cars because of Clunkers, the auto industry would well behind its typical numbers.
What the program appears to have done is drain off the excess inventory, left over from late last year and early this year when companies were still hoping to sell 12 million cars in 2009.
So, while companies may increase production to fill inventory gaps for specific vehicles, I wouldn't expect to see a full-scale return to automotive production until consumer confidence improves.
Robert Schoenberger
The main reasons why domestics don't put diesels in cars are cost and regulations.
U.S. emissions regulations on diesels are more stringent than European ones, so companies over here don't invest as much as European and Asian automakers. GM and Ford both sell good diesel-powered cars in Europe, but those engines wouldn't pass EPA standards.
The other issue is cost. In Europe, compact cars generally cost $25,000-$35,000, nearly double what people over here pay. When you're getting $25,000 for a car, it's easier to absorb the $2,000-$5,000 premium it costs to make a diesel engine over a gasoline one. It's the reason why Honda recently delayed plans to launch a diesel Accord over here.
All of that said, if the VW Jetta, the new Mercedes diesels or any of the other European diesels do well over here, expect Detroit to follow. Most of the companies have access to the technology (Ford and GM through their European divisions, Chrysler through Fiat).
Robert Schoenberger
I have heard no complaints from dealers about specific hurdles in the bill that made the program more difficult. The criteria in the bill were fairly simple -- the trade-in had to be 25 years old or newer, it had to get 18 miles per gallon or less, and the owner had to have the vehicle titled and insured for at least a year.
The paperwork problems have apparently come from the last two issues -- titling and insurance. Many car owners hold on to only their current insurance cards and title information, so proving the one-year criteria was difficult.
It probably didn't help that the program is being run by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a body set up to handle crash-test ratings and to monitor death and injury rates. A very good essay in the current issue of Automotive News points out that NHTSA is staffed by very good, highly skilled scientists and statisticians who have spent their careers making roads safer. But they have no experience running a consumer rebate program, especially one of the size and scope of CARS.
We'll probably get better data on this in the coming months as people go over the clunker sales, but most of the dealers I've talked to have said the people buying cars are very credit-worthy. Many of the buyers have paid cash, and those who have financed have had very high credit scores.
One economist I talked to said the people using this program are fiscally prudent people who rarely buy new cars because they lose so much in depreciation during the first year of ownership. The federal money effectively paid off that depreciation, making new cars a better investment.
Robert Schoenberger
As I said in my earlier post, the evidence at hand for the buyers is anecdotal. We won't get a full accounting of how many people paid cash and how many financed for quite some time, if ever.
With that said, I think it's fair to say that I've talked with the vast majority of car dealers in this area over the past month. Some were very supportive of the program, others were not. But one thing that most of them agreed on was the financing situation. Very few of the people trading in clunkers had big problems getting credit.
Art Spinella, president of CNW Research in Oregon, surveys car buyers and dealers constantly. I didn't end up using his quotes in a story, but he was the first to suggest to me that credit hadn't been an issue with the clunkers program. His surveys of dealers weren't showing any problems.
As to economists, I have talked to people at the University of Michigan, the Center for Automotive Research and a few research houses. I quoted George Magliano from IHS Global Insight and researchers in Michigan and California. Not all of those interviews got into the paper, but they did inform my reporting.
Finally, when it comes to the potential of people not being able to handle the loans on new cars, let's take a quick look at the numbers. The most popular vehicles purchased have been smaller cars and crossovers. Almost all of the vehicles in the Top 10 list cost significantly less than $20,000. After the rebate, buyers have to come up with $5,000-$15,000. Monthly payments on $15,000 come out to about $275 (for a five-year loan). Add another $25 to that to reflect higher insurance costs (minus a portion for fuel-cost savings), and you're talking about $300 per month in new expenses. And that doesn't take into account lower maintenance costs and other savings.
For some, $300 per month will be a financial hardship. We'll have to watch loan delinquency rates over the next few years.
Robert Schoenberger
I'm not sure where this rumor started, but it's categorically false. Take a look at the frequently asked questions section on the www.cars.gov Web site, and you'll see the following Q&A under the "Rebate, Incentive and Tax Questions" link:
Is the credit subject to being taxed as income to the consumers that participate in the program?
NO. The CARS Act expressly provides that the credit is not income for the consumer.
Robert Schoenberger
I'm going to throw a standard reporter's line at you, then I'm going to answer your question.
I write the stories, but my editors write the headlines. (That's the standard reporter's line).
That said, I agree with the conditional language in the headline. If this story had been about Ford, I would have hoped for conditional language in that headline as well.
While I hope Lordstown truly is ready to lead GM into a brighter future, the proof will be in the company's execution of both the new car and its relatively new manufacturing strategy.
GM has a lot to prove to the public. The company has been very candid in recent months about how it lost touch with consumers, how it failed to react quickly to major market changes and how it plans to do better in the future.
Ford is in better shape, in general. The company is experiencing a bit of a honeymoon as buyers recognize both the improvements in its products and its relative financial strength. But, one lousy car could kill all of that goodwill.
If you take a look at an earlier story that I wrote about the new Ford Taurus, I think you'll see that I'm approaching both companies with a healthy skepticism these days.

There are two key problems with bringing a diesel to the U.S. market, especially with small cars like the Cruze -- regulations and price.
U.S. diesel emissions regulations are more stringent than European rules. Mercedes and Audi have been able to overcome those problems but at a very high cost.
Even without the emission after-treatment systems that the Europeans are using, diesel engines cost more to produce than similar gasoline-powered ones. The engines operate at much higher pressure levels, have more expensive fuel injectors and use special, heavy alloys instead of cheaper, light aluminum.
In Great Britain, the diesel option on the Cruze costs 1,500 pounds (a little more than $2,400). Adding emissions-cleaning technologies would push that price up much higher over here. Keeping such a car price-competitive with Toyota, Hyundai and Kia would be nearly impossible unless they also brought out diesels.
So, because of the pricing and regulatory issues, it looks like diesels are going to be limited to pickups and expensive European cars for quite some time.
Robert Schoenberger
Just for the record, no mainstream automakers make subcompact cars in the United States.
Toyota imports its Scion line and the Yaris from Japan. Honda makes the Fit in Japan. Nissan makes the Versa in Mexico. BMW's Mini Cooper comes from England.
General Motors imports the Aveo from South Korea and the Saturn Astra from Belgium. Ford and Chrysler don't sell subcompacts here yet.
If you go up to compact cars, there's more U.S. production.
Toyota makes the Corolla in California (for now, it will switch to imports next year). Honda makes the Civic in Ohio and Indiana. Nissan is the lone importer in the class, bringing the Sentra up from Mexico.
GM makes the Cobalt in Lordstown. The Ford Focus comes from Michigan. The Dodge Caliber comes from Illinois.
Robert Schoenberger
While automakers are expecting some payback for August's numbers in September and the final quarter of the year, most of the surveys done so far show that significantly fewer than half of the buyers would have purchased new cars without the clunker program.
The typical new-car buyer doesn't have a trade-in that's old enough or in rough enough shape to be worth less than $4,500. So the program didn't appeal to them. What many dealers have said is that most of the people buying vehicles through the clunker program were used-car buyers... people who buy three-to-five-year-old vehicles so someone else pays the depreciation.
Also remember that only a small fraction of the driving public qualified for this program. The 18 miles per gallon limit was very low. Virtually no cars qualified, only a handful of minivans and even many trucks and SUVs were too fuel-efficient for the program.
So, there is still a huge group of people out there who are driving cars that will eventually need to be replaced. The sales rate for new cars still appears to be below the rate at which cars are scrapped, so sales will have to rebound eventually.
Robert Schoenberger
Just to clarify a few things...
The representatives from utility companies were clear that they will be able to support plug-in vehicles and plug-in hybrids, if they have enough time to prepare for the increased demands on their services.
The problem is lumpiness. Companies expect demand for electric cars to be concentrated in small areas. So many larger neighborhoods will need no power upgrades, but others will need massive changes.
The scope of these problems can be greatly reduced if power companies work with regulators and automakers to design systems now instead of waiting until thousands of such vehicles are on the road.
Panels such as the one being run today at OSU are designed to create some of that dialog between different industries.
Robert Schoenberger
Normally, I would agree with you on headlines, but on some Web posts, I do write my own titles, so I'll take the blame/credit for this one.
Today's event in Columbus was fascinating, if for no other reason than it became very clear that both car companies and utilities want plug-ins to work, but they have very different sets of goals, and they don't talk to each other a lot.
Utility speakers stressed the capabilities of the smart grid and how they can work now to prepare themselves for the day when electric cars are the norm.
Car companies see the grid as a nightmare. Getting a single fuel economy standard for California and the rest of the country was hard. Getting a single standard for electricity transmission to and from cars is an astronomically difficult task. Every state Public Utility Commission, every utility company, every local building inspector could have a say in how such vehicles would work.
Utility companies are used to such a patchwork approach to doing business in different areas. Car companies aren't.
None of this is to say that plug-in cars won't happen. But a lot more seems like it has to happen behind the scenes for these vehicles to become practical and affordable.
Robert Schoenberger
After attending yesterday's sessions, it became clear that the electrical grid issues holding back PHEVs are technical and solvable.
The bigger issues are economic. Who is going to pay the 100 percent premium needed to electrify a car? That number may drop as technology improves, but it won't fall enough to make the price premium affordable to mainstream buyers.
So, if car companies and utilities want mass-market penetration of PHEVs, they're going to have to come up with a highly collaborative business model.

Bankruptcy is a federal process. And, because it deals with interstate trade, it is one of the areas that the Constitution says the federal government should handle.
Robert Schoenberger
Thank you for your comments. The Chrysler bankruptcy case has been unique in several aspects, but it has followed the basic structure of most Chapter 11 filings.
In a normal bankruptcy, the firm filing Chapter 11 lines up debtor-in-possession financing (loans to keep operating while restructuring) either before or immediately after filing. Without a decent DIP loan in place, the company would quickly fold, forcing a full liquidation.
In the Chrysler case, the company tried to line up DIP financing, but between the amount of money needed and the miserable shape of capital markets, the usual funds and banks could not provide the loans. The government was willing to lend (the most unique aspect of the case), but those loans had lots of strings attached.
One of those strings was giving the UAW trust fund a majority stake in the company after it merged with Fiat. Chrysler's management chose that as a better option than liquidation, the only other option.
Some secured creditors felt they could get more value out of a liquidation, and they objected. Other secured creditors agreed to the federal loans because they felt they would get more by owning a small piece of the new Chrysler/Fiat than they would have from fighting for scraps in a liquidation.
Because the majority of the creditors agreed to the plan, the Court accepted it. While secured creditors usually have more sway in that process, companies usually have more choices in DIP lenders. Having only one choice for those loans gave the DIP lenders (the government) far more power than usual for a Chapter 11 case.
And let's also not forget that the UAW fund was Chrsyler's largest unsecured creditor. So, while its rights would have been secondary to secured creditors, it would have had a very loud voice in any Chapter 11 setting.
Obviously, the Chrysler case has broken new ground in bankruptcy law. The possibility of the federal government acting as a DIP lender is a major development.
If you want more details on what ground the Chrysler case broke, you can read an interesting article here about the issues.

One more note,
An editor suggested that it may be valuable to post the entire name and source of the article listed in my previous post.
The article is "The Precedential Value of an Unprecedented Sale - Lessons from Chrysler," posted to the Bankruptcy and Restructuring blog of New York law firm Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton.

The new promotion does not replace GM's five-year, 100,000-mile warranty. So, building cars that last 61 days would lead to huge increases in warranty repair costs, one of the few budget lines that has consistently gone down both at GM and Ford over the past five years.
Robert Schoenberger
Just to answer a few questions (and please forgive any typos as I'm filing this from the back seat of my car in the Lordstown plant's parking lot).
The Cruze will be a little bit bigger than the Cobalt. But it will fit very cleanly into the compact car size class. If memory serves, it's within about three or four inches of the Cobalt's length and width.
GM hasn't announced pricing, but they have said they will be price competitive for that market, so I'd expect a starting price in the teens, working up to the low $20,000 range for a fully loaded model.
I did not see any protestors in front of the plant, but to get through security, I had to arrive several hours before the president's speech, so some may have arrived after I did.
I did not observe any bowing or direct worship of the president on the plant floor, but this was an extremely supportive crowd. Many people in the audience were wearing Obama campaign shirts as well as stickers and buttons.
The early version of this story did not carry any information about opponents to the president's plans because those people aren't in Lordstown today voicing their concerns. The later version of this story does have some opposing voices, thanks to the efforts of the PD's Washington bureau.
Robert Schoenberger
hafvm and others,
Just a few comments on the timing of everything here.
GM did announce last month that it would bring the second shift back to Lordstown. That shift is coming back specifically for Cobalt production.
GM does need to bring people in to get ready for the Cruze, but that's a fairly small number of skilled tradesmen. I spoke to a millwright at the plant, and she told me that all of the millwrights are back to work getting ready for the Cruze, but quite a few pipe-fitters and other tradesmen are still out on layoff. Again, we're talking about 100-200 people on the skilled trades side, not an entire production shift.
GM recalled the production shift because inventories of small cars (not just the Cobalt but look at the Ford Focus, Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, etc...) fell to record lows following "cash for clunkers." Even if sales are lousy this month and next (as many analysts and dealers are saying), rebuilding inventories will keep two shifts working in Lordstown for some time.
As to the president's timing, a few of the White House staffers at the event today said Obama came in part to celebrate the re-start of the second shift. The fact that the plant is a short drive from Pittsburgh where he was already scheduled to speak to the AFL-CIO didn't hurt either.
Robert Schoenberger
Cobasys has been in Springsboro, Ohio, near Dayton for more than a decade.
The plant makes Nickel-metal hydride batteries that are used by several industrial companies. At one point, they were supplying GM for both the EV1 and the electric light pickup the company was selling.
The company's batteries are used in some vehicles and a lot of stationary applications such as server backups, telecommunication router backups and off-grid storage for windmills and solar arrays.
I haven't been following them closely, but there have been some recent stories questioning the future of the Ohio operation.
Robert Schoenberger
This site uses an automated language filter to weed out potentially obscene or inappropriate posts. I read the post you tried to submit, and I contained one of George Carlin's famous words that you can't use on television. Any use of profane language pulls a post offline before anyone even has a chance to read it.
And, in the future, we're probably going to get a bit more aggressive in pulling down posts with creatively spelled profanities. So those of you substituting $ for S in certain words, that practice may stop protecting your posts in the near future.

This is good to hear. Especially after last year. How many player hernias did we end up with last season?
I was glad to read that Center Point doesn't want my money. I'll contact city hall to see when I can stop by and get my $200 back.
Also, local players = more people in Bartow Arena. Very smart. Excited about Coach Hasse and his staff. Go Blazers! #freeUAB
Saban may have had a job with the Miami Dolphins, but he was NEVER an NFL coach. Much like Spurrier, he was school by seasoned NFL coaches and came running back to college football with his tail between his legs.
JP looked super comfortable, and I hope he has the season I think he can have in this system. Also, number 9, a receiver, was all over the field. He's got great hands and looks like a threat.
No one at UAB should thank Neil Callaway for anything...Well, maybe for leaving. Go Blazers!
Excitement on the Southside! It's about time. I can't wait to see our new coaching staff score it's first win against the TITANICALLY TERRIBLE TROY TROJANS!
Then they should shut down Alabama's baseball team. They haven't been able to beat the Batting UAB Blazers once this season! GOOOOOO BLAZERS!!!!!!
If there were any justice in this world, PB Jr. and his cronies would all be cleaning bathrooms down at the bus station. Their corrupt backroom dealings have held UAB back long enough. Where there's smoke there's fire, and I'm seeing more smoke here than on Snoop Dogg's tour bus. #freeUAB
What should Mackin do? Smile, shake Davis' hand and wish him luck in the future. Then, he should wave as Davis gets in his car and drives off UAB's campus for the final time. Hopefully someone has already put a few boxes in Davis' office so he can pack up his things...including the empty frame where he planned on hanging the picture of his national championship team at UAB. This hire felt wrong from day one.
Boo hoo, cry me a river, Mike. I think it's a bigger insult to openly-campaign for a new job while being employed at UAB. You made the decision to stir up the whole Cousins fiasco, and it blew up in your face. If you had a backbone, you would have submitted your resignation then and there.
Heck yes, this needs to happen. No longer will UAB be held back by the shortsighted and ignorant good old boys. Let this dragon loose, and we'll blaze a path for a successful Birmingham! #freeUAB
Don't you get it? We're running off thick-headed morons like you....ON PURPOSE.
Great article, great hire! #freeUAB
Very excited about the hire, and I can't wait for hope to reappear on the Southside! GOOOOO BLAZERRSSS!!!! #freeUAB
This is your brain on drugs....
How can someone in a position of power know so little? His letter is a joke, and so is the whole Board of Trustees. UAB alumni, students and fans will support this stadium. We don't want UAT's table scraps, and we don't need ignorant trustees standing in the way of our progress. See you in February!
Great article and a great win for the Blazers. Bring on the stadium!!!

Efforts to secure state grant funding for a visitors center annex in Jonesborough's downtown historic district are continuing. And if the town's third annual grant application and a corresponding letter-writing campaign to the governor's office do the trick, preliminary work on the project could begin late this year.
Town Administrator Bob Browning said the idea of placing a visitors center annex downtown and reconfiguring several elements of the town's tourism infrastructure began several years ago with a tourism study conducted by Destination Development.
As in many cities, Browning said, the study found a good percentage of Jonesborough tourists bypass the existing Visitors Center on the Boone Street corridor into downtown, park at the courthouse and take their questions about the town's history to the town's merchants. The merchants don't have the information the tourists need. The visitors center is too far away for many people to walk. And too often, the opportunity to share the significance of Jonesborough's history is lost.
Browning said moving the visitors center's tourism functions downtown would not only better orient visitors to its historic sites but would also bring more guests to the history museum and provide more space in the existing visitors center for public gatherings and activities like Jonesborough's popular contra dances.
Placing the annex next door to the Chester Inn at Christopher Taylor Park would open up even more opportunities to improve the town's tourism infrastructure, Browning said, including preservation of the 220-year-old cabin for which the park is named, expansion of Jonesborough's interpretive history programs and the provision of the trail head to link three separate walking trails already in development.
The cabin would be moved to a site near the Oak Hill School, a popular field trip destination where grade school students from all over the region learn what it was like to attend school in the late 1700s from costumed interpretive history artists.
The cabin would be added to the interpretative history program at the school and, more importantly, Browning said, clapboard would be added to the cabin's exterior to preserve its 200-year-old logs.
"It's one of the oldest examples of saddle notch construction in Tennessee and it needs to be preserved," he said. But because the cabin was moved form its original location west of town and its original clapboards removed, it is no longer a candidate for preservation by the state.
"It's been out in the weather and the logs are now beginning to deteriorate. It's an expensive process, but it needs to be encapsulated either inside another building or covered with clapboard.
If funding can be secured, the visitors center annex would be built at the cabin's current site to resemble the two-story home that originally occupied the lot next door to the Chester Inn.
The new building would provide about 9,000 square feet of space for visitors center information, museum exhibits and trail head services for three separate waking trail projects already in development in Jonesborough.
Browning said the town's third application for an Enhancement Grant from state Department of Transportation to fund the project was submitted in November. "It's a rather large grant, about $1.3 million, and this is our third application," he said.
To help with the application's advancement, the town has spent the past 60 days recruiting community leaders and other entities with a stake in Jonesborough to express their support for the project in letters to the governor's office and to the TDOT.
Support has so far come from the county mayor's office, individual county commissioners, the International Storytelling Center, the Jonesborough Heritage Alliance, members of the town's Veterans' Memorial Committee, town merchants and others.
The Department of Transportation decision on the application is expected in the summer.

Living With an LG G2
- Oct 22, 2013 10:24 AM EST
- Comments
One of the problems Android smartphone makers have had is trying to make a phone that stands out from all the others. After all, pretty much every maker's flagship device has the latest version of Android, a big and bright display, and the fastest processor they can get. LG is no different, so with its flagship G2, it has upped the ante a bit with the screen and processor. But it's the other features that make the G2 stand out, notably a "rear key" that takes the place of the typical buttons on the side you'll find in most other phones. Read More »

Highlights from the Huskies historic 55-24 win over the Boilermakers at Ross-Ade Stadium.
NIU rallied for a 30-27 victory over Iowa Saturday.
An experienced offensive coach who has served as offensive coordinator at six different universities, Bob Cole begins his second season calling the plays for the Huskies as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in his fourth season with NIU overall.
After working with the wide receivers in his first year at NIU, Cole returned to lead the position group he has worked with the most over the years, tutoring the Huskie quarterbacks in 2012.
Under his tutelage, quarterback Jordan Lynch, who finished seventh in the 2012 Heisman voting, turned in a record-setting season last year, becoming the first NCAA player to pass for 3,000 yards and rush for 1,500 yards. The 2012 Mid-American Conference MVP tallied 353.8 yards of total offense and led the nation with 12 rushing touchdowns.
Lynch took his play to a new level in his second season working with Cole en route to finishing third in the 2013 Heisman Trophy voting to set a Mid-American Conference record. Lynch, who was named a first team All-American and was a finalist for multiple awards, passed for 2,892 yards and rushing for 1,920 while breaking NCAA, league and school records. The Huskie offense set three MAC and nine school records in 2013.
Cole has helped guide one of the most productive offenses in NIU history. Under Cole's guidance in 2011, the Huskies developed one of the most consistent and deep receiving corps in NIU history, contributing to a record-setting offensive season and the 2011 Mid-American Conference Championship.
Cole is a 25-year collegiate coaching veteran who has made stops at seven colleges and two high schools in his career. Prior to spending the 2009 campaign at Western Kentucky where he served as quarterbacks coach, Cole was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at the University of Wyoming in 2008. He went to Wyoming after three seasons (2005-07) in the same role at Florida A&M University, where Rattlers' quarterback Albert Chester led the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference in passing and total offense in 2006.
A native of Whitehall, Pa., Cole led a successful offense as coordinator at Utah State from 2000-04. Under his direction, the 2002 Aggies ranked seventh in the nation in passing offense. The previous year, Cole's USU offense ranked 13th in the NCAA in passing and receiver Kevin Curtis, who led the nation in receptions (9.09/game) and was third in receiving yards.
As offensive coordinator at Montana in 1999, the Grizzlies reached the NCAA I-AA (now FCS) playoffs and Cole's offense ranked second in total offense (517.4 yards per game), scoring offense (46.4 points per game) and passing offense (370.0 yards per game). Quarterback Drew Miller led the nation in passing efficiency with a quarterback rating of 168.6, marking the second consecutive season that Cole coached the nation's passing efficiency leader. Miller also ranked second in the nation with an average of 346.1 passing yards per game.
Cole spent six seasons (1993-98) at Portland State as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. During his tenure, PSU ranked in the top 10 in the nation in total offense three times - in 1994, 1995 and 1998. Vikings' quarterback Jimmy Blanchard led the nation in passing efficiency in 1998.
Cole has been a college coach since 1988, when he began his career as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks' coach at Sonoma State University in California, where he coached for five years (1988-92).
A 1982 graduate of Widener University in Chester, Pa., Cole was a three-year starter (1979-81) at quarterback for the Pioneers and led Widener to the 1981 NCAA Division III National Championship. Widener went 35-2 and advanced to the Division III Playoffs in all three of his years as the starting signal-caller.
Cole and his wife Kathy have two children, daughter Zoe and son Bobby.

Re-making Zero
This Week,
Very cool, I really want to play this game. You are making me want to play it more.
You need to fix the eyes though. In the drawing he is clearly looking at you. In the render he looks like some inverse-cross-eyed bug monster. I do see what you mean about the cloak though. It's pretty weird.
I think it's a simple matter of flattening the face out instead of making it perfectly round. That will also decrease the angle on the air filter, which should look a little better.
EDIT: now that I look at it again, the air filter is fine. Never mind about that.

999 is a great game
I meant to put that in but I forgot about it somewhere along the line. It doesn't make much sense but it's a nice little incidental detail.
@nintendoeats: Well it's not perfectly round as it is, just curved.
I think I can fix the problem you're sensing with the air filter by giving it a tiny taper, as well as rotating the mask downwards.

It's a really great start. The cloak looks like it will be really tough so I'm interested to see where you take it. Keep up the good work!

Over the past few weeks, the number of stories in the press regarding the escalating violence in Mexico has dramatically increased.
Over the past few weeks, the number of stories in the press regarding the escalating violence in Mexico has dramatically increased.
I just watched an interview with the mexican attorney general who said that if America could crack down on all it's drug users and stop the flow of illegal weapons into mexico then this problem wouldn't have started..
FUCK him!
Ya all those automatic weapons are coming from the US. What a dipshit. They can't keep their own military weapons out of the hands of the drug cartels! I guess the fact that they had 17,000 army desertions last year alone and can't keep any honest officals alive doesn't count. And some how we're the problem....

"Courage is being scared to death - and saddling up anyway." - The Duke
But, but, but - if they make the U.S. give up guns, then they can control their sheeple easier. Just like the socialists in power here are trying to do.
"A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within.", Will Durant
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.", Edmund Burke
If stuff is going over the border going south, I bet a big tall wall will curtail that, and drugs and other illegal items coming this way. Or am I missing something?
the war in mexico is why more people in the south need weapons to defend them selves not less. we need to crack down on all the illeagal in this country and send them back. illeagles cause a huge amount of gun grime here and it affects all of us. send them back. stop trying to legalise them so they van vote democrate.

The plot is neatly summed up in the title, and in the early going, it appears that this is going to be yet another of those aren't-groupies-goofy tales set at a "Star Trek" convention. But Brandon Taitt's script -- aided nicely by George M. Calger's fine imitation of Stewart and Brandon R. Caviness' warmly dorky turn as a fan -- is surprisingly deft at balancing the conflicting desires and aspirations of both fervent fans and the human beings they place on pedestals. The result is a wise and unexpectedly affecting story that should appeal to Trekkies and non-believers alike.

Urmston Meds Pumas Vs St John's
After weeks of training throughout the summer period, Meds Pumas were finally about to play their first league game. The girls turned up nervous yet excited - and looking WONDERFUL in Orange. By the time the starting whistle blew the girls were raring to go. Both teams had pulled out some fancy moves and it wasn't too long before super striker Sophie Lister scored her debut goal for Meadowside, and finally had her celebration figured out The girls were very excited - almost as excited as the coaches Not too long later St.John's pulled out a cracking goal and the scores were level.
In the second half, Meadowside's defenders pulled out the A+ game and put all of the techniquies into use that they had been working on all summer, and didn't let another goal past them. Shortly into the second half Isabella Monteriro scored a beautiful goal - and the team was buzzing. Towards the end of the second half Pumas won a corner, and from this corner came Katie Garner's goal. A few more runs from St John's followed but our players were not going to let victory slip through their fingers, with Ayla Bingham-Watt and Niamh Baker producing some excellent tackles from the back, and the final score ended 3-1 in Meds favour. All of the players - from both teams - played extremely well and should be very proud of their first EVER football match
Final Score: Pumas 3-1 St John Allstars
Girl Of The Match: Sophie Lister
17th September 2011
Urmston Meds Panthers vs Urmston Meds Pumas
The second game of the season brought torrential rain and a stylish pink kit for the Pumas. After last weeks win, the girls were well up for this game against their friends on the Meds Panthers - one which was a nice friendly game well played by both.
Starting the game on a tiny pitch, the Panthers quickly took the lead, but with consistent attacking play from the Pumas, Sophie Lister soon brought us level. Another great goal from the Panthers encouraged the Pumas on and another equalising goal from Sophie made it 2-2 at half time.
With Maisie Grice and Katie Garner battling in the middle of the pitch, and quality defending from Lauren Cowan and Harriet Myers, the game stayed tight but as soon as the Panthers scored again, the Pumas went and drew it level to 3-3 - Sophie getting her hatrick, once again . A last minute goal from the Panthers saw this well fought game draw to a close with the Panthers picking up the points.
The weather on the day was the worst it has been for years yet both sets of players left with big smiles on their faces which was great to see.
Final Score: Panthers 4-3 Pumas
Girl of the Match: Maisie Grice

The girls enjoyed their day very much.
5th November 2011
Urmston Meds Pumas vs Oswald Road
A few games into the season and the girls are starting to grasp the footballing techniques: the passes are prim, the tackles are tough and the skills are startling.
From the sidelines the nerves were present, but the girls being themselves they weren't present on the pitch. the girls started of the game in 'Dolce and Gabanan' style, run after run- from Katie Garner and Ella Sutton in the midfield and shot after shot from Sophie Lister and Rachel Campbellyou could feel a goal coming. Oswald Roads players were not going to give in easily. A cracking pass from Harriet Myres in the defence, set the play up nicely and the midfield were on their way. The ball landing with Maisie Grice, put the Pumas into the lead, led her to scoring a magnicent goal- chipping the goalkeeper.
The Second Half: the girls went in confident, but Oswald Road hadn't given up they came on hunting for a goal but geat defending from Harriet Myres and Isabella Monteiro and some amazing saves from goalkeeper Niamh Baker, kept the Pumas lead. A second goal scored stylishly by the one and only Sophie Lister came from a David Beckham quality ball over the top from Isabella Monteiro. The palyers continued to play at their highest level; from this came Isabella Monteiro going on a mad run from the defence and scoring a wicked goal.
Final Score: Pumas 3:0 Oswald Road
Player of the match(chosen by the coaches): Niamh Baker
Player of the match(chosen by Oswald Road): Harriet Myres
Next week the girls start their proper leauge and we wish them good look in the rest of the year!!!

LARWILL — In an effort to encourage growth in the Town of Larwill and utilize the former Larwill High School, Whitley County Economic Development Corporation (EDC) President Alan Tio and Economic Development District and Regional Planning Commission Executive Director Jim Atz, attended the Larwill town council meeting Thursday evening requesting a tax abatement.
LARWILL — Larwill residents will soon incur an increase on their monthly utility billing as the town's sewer ordinance has been amended. Town attorney, Greg Hockemeyer, made the changes to the ordinance which outlines a 14.3 percent rate hike. The monthly rate for a single family dwelling will increase from $35 to $40. A copy of the amended rate ordinance is available for inspection at the clerk's office during posted business hours.
COLUMBIA CITY  — With doughnuts to share, the Salvation Army of Whitley County celebrated 75 years of service with an open house. Members of the community were invited to visit the new location that is now inside First Church of God off DePoy Dr in Columbia City.
The organization has grown in support and in its effort to extend a helping hand to those in need. But there are still residents of Whitley County who are not aware of the Salvation Army's willingness to serve them.
LARWILL — Locally-based contract manufacturer Red Star Manufacturing, Inc. recently collaborated with Whitko High School to support component manufacturing for a custom-ordered 10-ton plastic injection molding machine.
In late 2011, Red Star owner Scott Werstler approached Whitko Engineering and Welding Technology teacher Jay Ocken about providing his students with hands-on experience with tools and techniques in component manufacturing.
MCKINNEY, Texas — The Columbia City man jailed in April in Collin County, Texas on charges of money laundering has been released on bail, according to court officials in that county.
According to Tim Wyatt, the attorney for Duane Ducharme, 70, posted a $40,000 surety bond on Wednesday.
Ducharme is represented by McKinney, Texas-based attorney Gregg Gibbs. Wyatt said Friday that an examining trial is scheduled there May 25.
"I can find nothing that says his (Ducharme) whereabouts, and I don't have the conditions of his bond.
Ducharme was booked April 13.
COLUMBIA CITY — The Highway Department is laying out plans for their summer sealing program and the continuation of dust control efforts.
"It's when we get the most calls," said Mike Barton, highway department superintendent. "They want to know which roads will be done first and second and if there are roads that are going to be done at all."
"We'll go out, and especially the roads we've milled, we want to get them out of any possible dust they've seen since last fall," said Barton.
Barton said the Highway Department has not seen as much dust on the roads as they expected.
COLUMBIA CITY — Despite an impressive 10-run inning by Columbia City, Whitko held on for a 16-13 win over the Eagles on their own field Friday night in Columbia City.
Whitko jumped out to a 13-3 lead at the top of the fourth inning. Fearing the possibility of being beat by the 10-run-rule, Columbia City retaliated with a 10-run fourth frame to tie the score at 13.
But that was the end, as the Eagles didn't score another run for the final three innings, while Whitko tacked on three more in the high-scoring game.
CHURUBUSCO — Churubusco's boys and girls track teams hosted the Northeast Corner Conference meet Friday night.
The boys team placed third out of 10 teams, and the girls came in fourth.
Fairfield was the boys NECC title winner, while Westview received the honors for the girls.
Churubusco continued to control the throwing events, with Heather Monk taking first-team all-conference in both the shot put and discus. Monk's sister, Katie, got second in the discus and third in the shot put.
Austin McClure dominated the boys throws, winning the discus and taking second in the shot put.
NEW HAVEN — Columbia City's boys golf team posted its best score of the season Thursday night at Whispering Creek.
The Eagles won with a 156 over the Bulldogs, who shot a 177.
Columbia City's previous low was 166, 10 strokes higher than the Eagle's score on Thursday.
Eagle Drew Burnsworth shot his best score of the season, 35, earning medalist honors.
"It was good to see Burnsworth break out and finish a round well," Thompson said. "It was huge."
Derek Philbee fired a 39, his first score under 40 this season.
"He's been playing well for us," Thompson said.

According to the site: "Celebrated annually since 1927, the Bracebridge Dinner transforms The Ahwahnee into a 17th century English manor for a feast of food, song and mirth.

How many years have you sat in your living room "oohing and aahing" and wondering what the spectacular floats look like in "real life"? View these one-of-a-kind works of art the day prior to the parade, then wake up early the next morning and enjoy the parade from the grandstands!"
