Marvel Disk Wars The Avengers
In an all-out battle instigated by Loki in New York City, the Avengers along with many heroes and villains on Earth have been trapped inside disks — a new disk technology originally developed as device for capturing and securing villains around the world. Spider-Man tries to retrieve the disks from Loki, but he fails and the disks are scattered around the globe. Meanwhile, two teenage brothers, Akira and Hikaru, and their three friends come together in search for the scattered disks and the brother's missing father, Dr. Akatsuki, the scientist responsible for the development of the disk technology under the auspices of Stark International. While searching for answers about the disks and their father, the kids accidentally run across their father's secretly hidden access codes, and without knowing it, these factor-specific beta version of the "bio-codes" are installed into the kids' DNA — resulting in the kids becoming able to materialize the trapped heroes from the disks. The five teens' new mission, with the help of Spider-Man and The Avengers, is to collect and secure the disks from around the world to prevent impending disaster. Not to be outdone, Loki uses his five minions, Celebrity Five with full version of the bio-codes installed, and captured villains in his command to gather the disks to further his evil plans to acquire powers of all the super heroes — though he actually has even more grave plans in store for the world. The race is on for the Avengers (Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk and Wasp), using their skills and special battle techniques, teaming up with a group of teens for the first time, to collect the disks to secure world peace.

Rocket Monkeys
When battling rogue black holes, vengeful aliens, criminal masterminds, and rifts in the evil dimension, the universe turns to its bravest and brightest to save the day. When those guys are busy, the universe is stuck with the Rocket Monkeys. Inexplicably charged with carrying out all kinds of important missions, brothers Gus and Wally cause more intergalactic calamity than they could ever prevent. Luckily, they have plenty of help from YAY-OK, their dashing and devoted (if slightly outdated) robot. These monkeys may not have the brainpower of the Rocket Chickens or the guts of the Cosmosloths, but they do have a hunger for adventure. And by "adventure" we mostly mean "bananas".

Gel Kills Ants Before They Infest Your Home
Ant Killing Gel (Set of Two 1 oz. Bottles) 3 3
Ant Patrol Thanks again for your products and exceptional service. I do believe this product works since the ants are much fewer in number than before I began using it well over a month ago. I chose to wait at least a month before providing a review. My angst with the ants remains in my bathroom. Again, they are a lot fewer... September 6, 2013
Use this inside instead I have never found this to work outside, so use granule type on mounds. The best way to use this product is to take a small piece of wax paper or a flat bottle cap (old crimped type) and place 2-3 drops of the product in the cap or on the paper and place in area you see ants. Best areas are backs of counters or in the pantry. Give it time. The ants have to find it first, then they take it to the colony. After they find it, you'll see lots of ants. Replenish it until they don't come back. It takes about 2 weeks to start to work. It's not fast, but it's safe, and it will work. May 28, 2013
Hasn't made a difference I ordered this, with the traps that holds this, to get rid of ant hills in our yard. As I found more hills this morning, I said something to my husband. He said that the hills that he put this product and the traps has not made any difference. I was so hoping it would. August 25, 2012

Top video: senior research fellow Brian Walker explains the concept of resilience.
Download "What is resilience?" (pdf, 2 MB)
Download "Vad är resiliens?" Swedish version (pdf, 2.1 MB)
Download "Applying resilience thinking" (pdf, 1.4 MB)
Resilience is the long-term capacity of a system to deal with change and continue to develop. For an ecosystem such as a forest, this can involve dealing with storms, fires and pollution, while for a society it involves an ability to deal with political uncertainty or natural disasters in a way that is sustainable in the long-term.
Increased knowledge of how we can strengthen resilience in society and nature is becoming increasingly important in coping with the stresses caused by climate change and other environmental impacts.
Why resilience?Sometimes change is gradual and things move forward in roughly continuous and predictable ways. At other times, change is sudden, disorganizing and turbulent reflected in climate impacts, earth system science challenges and vulnerable regions. Evidence points to a situation where periods of such abrupt change are likely to increase in frequency and magnitude. This challenges the adaptive capacity of societies.
The resilience approach focuses on the dynamic interplay between periods of gradual and sudden change and how to adapt to and shape change.
Research at the Stockholm Resilience Centre will address these challenges in order to generate a deeper understanding of interdependent social-ecological systems for improved governance and policy.

CANTON The road to better legal representation for St. Lawrence County defendants at their first court appearance is paved with questions.
Last year, the state for the first time provided $12 million for 25 counties, including St. Lawrence, in a pilot program to provide counsel when defendants are arraigned. St. Lawrences share was $587,000 over three years.
Although St. Lawrence County has not historically held arraignments off hours as a standard practice, this grant provides an opportunity to determine the opportunities and identify the challenges in a county with the geography and significant number of courts, Administrator Karen M. St. Hilaire wrote in a letter mailed this week to magistrates.
The program, targeted for the countys busiest courts in Canton, Gouverneur, Massena, Potsdam, Ogdensburg, Fowler, Morristown, Oswegatchie, Pierrepont and Waddington, is scheduled to begin May 15 after already being delayed twice.
Despite the impending startup date, some judges still have procedural questions. It remains unclear who will be paid what and what will happen when the money runs out.
When the grant money expires, were going to be on the hook, Legislative Chairman Jonathan S. Putney, D-Waddington, said. Its going to have an impact on us, and its not going to be a positive impact.
Part of the purpose of the pilot study could be for the county to track its costs and ask the state for additional money, Ms. St. Hilaire said.
The program is the outgrowth of a recent Court of Appeals decision in Hurrell-Harring v. New York, which recognizes that having counsel is vital at arraignment.
Even if guilty pleas are not made at a defendants first judicial appearance, the court determined that other key interests exist, including the loss of employment and housing, and the inability to support and care for dependents.
Recognizing the crucial importance of arraignment and the extent to which a defendants basic liberty and due process interests may then be affected, Criminal Procedure Law expressly provides for the right to the aid of counsel at the arraignment and at every subsequent stage of the action and forbids a court from going forward with the proceeding without counsel for the defendant, unless the defendant has knowingly agreed to proceed in counsels absence, the decision read. Nothing in the statute may be read to justify the conclusion that the presence of defense counsel at arraignment is ever dispensable, except at a defendants informed option, when matters affecting the defendants pretrial liberty or ability subsequently to defend against the charges are to be decided.
Representatives of the county Magistrates Association will meet May 12 with County Court Judge Jerome J. Richards and Public Defender Stephen D. Button who wrote the grant application to address concerns posed by local judges, Fowler Justice Paul M. Lamson said.
Among the questions are whether the program only applies to indigent defendants, how long the courts have to wait for a defense attorney to appear, how much attorneys will be paid, and how the attorneys will be called in.
The county has to provide a central point of contact, Mr. Lamson said. Theres a lot of unanswered questions.
The grant originally was written with Assigned Counsel in mind but the county then was told it had to follow its indigent defense plan, which includes use of the Public Defender and Conflict Defender.
For the time being, attorneys will come from the Public Defenders Office and the Conflict Defender with Assigned Counsel participation possible. Half a dozen Assigned Counsel attorneys are willing to participate, although final plans have not been made, Administrator Scott B. Goldie said.
The county has come up with a $400 fee per appearance for attorneys who appear at late night and early morning arraignments. Whether Public Defender and Conflict Defender employees are paid extra remains unanswered as they are salaried, not independent contractors as Assigned Counsel attorneys are, Mr. Button said.
My office is not paid overtime. We all work a lot of the time, he said. Its an incredible burden on our office, but we follow the law.

Coming nearly 6 years after the release of Season 1, Superboy: Season 2 was a pleasant surprise. The quality of the Warner Archive DVDs has improved so much, that it has become difficult to distinguish these DVRs from the standard mass produced DVDs that line store shelves. As expected, the playback was excellent. Episodes are separate on the menu. There are no special features (par for the course with the Warner Archive titles). The picture quality is fine (typical of a late 80s syndicated show). The audio is also adequate (it could just be me, but the volume tends to fluctuate from episode to episode, still this should not deter one from making the purchase). The show features some fun guest villians to chew the scenery, along with a new Superboy. My young sons have enjoyed watching the show along with me. This set is highly recommended for fans of the show as well as the Man of Steel in general.

Another treasure for Superman hardcore fans is this TV series. Gerard Christopher really shines as the new Boy of Steel, giving to the character some of the qualities present in the classic Christopher Reeve portray of the Man of Steel, and is an improvement over previous series star, John Haynes Newton (Who also did a good job).Stacy Hayduk is great and good looking as Lana Lang, while Ian Mitchel Smith is just a comic relief here, but the biggest surprise is Sherman Howard's portray of Lex Luthor, a really wicked and evil character, even with some "Jokerish" mannerisms. The quality of elements like the stories (Handled by DC Comics writters and really close to the source material) made a contrast with the obvious low budget feel of the show in the scenarios and props. Sadly, as a made to order DVD, we'll miss different audio tracks, subtitles, behind the scenes specials or commentaries. But at least we have episodes with a good transfer. Just hope to see the remaining seasons, where the stories and acting goes better, and the series ends in a high note.

Perfect addition to any collection. Season 1 is great in its classic rite, but season 2 is a must have. The best part is they even included the blurbs between commercials from when it aired in the dvd master, so epicly cheesy. Any comic book fan/geek will love the b-film-esque quality of the special effects and actng. Love it!

- Research into the genetic causes of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) involves studies of the DNA of children with autism. New DNA sequencing technology allows researchers to study specific genes in search of genetic changes that may cause or contribute to ASD. Individuals who donated DNA to the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange may benefit from further study of their DNA samples with more advanced DNA sequencing technology.
- The role of cholesterol in individuals with ASD is currently under investigation. Research has suggested that abnormal cholesterol levels in children with autism may be related to genetic mutations or changes in how cholesterol is regulated in the body.
- To study existing blood samples of children with autism spectrum disorders to evaluate the relationship between genetic traits and cholesterol function.
- Children with ASD who donated blood samples to the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange.
- Parents/guardians of minor children with ASD will provide consent for further research to be performed on existing DNA samples in the Autism Genetic Research Exchange databank. Information from this research may be provided to the consenting parents/guardians on a case by case basis, as directed by the researchers.
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Autistic Disorder
|Study Type:
|Official Title:
|Exome Sequencing in Autistic Spectrum Disorder Patients With Altered Cholesterol Homeostasis
|Study Start Date:
|January 2010
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by functional deficits in three domains: social interaction, communication, and stereotypic behavior. Prevalence has been estimated to be approximately 1/166 children and the public health impact is significant. ASD clearly has a genetic component; however, identification of specific etiologies has been complicated by the heterogeneous nature of ASD. One approach to minimize this problem is to define endophenotypes that can subcategorize ASD patients. Based on our work with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, we have investigated whether alterations in cholesterol homeostasis may contribute to ASD. We found in 200 ASD subjects that 23% of subjects had serum cholesterol levels less than or equal to 2.28th centile and 9% had levels greater than or equal to 97.72nd centile. Analysis of the sterol profile suggested that the hypocholesterolemia was due to a synthetic defect rather than decreased oral intake. Thus we hypothesize that ASD patients with abnormal cholesterol levels will have polymorphisms or mutations of either genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis or genes encoding proteins whose function is altered by changes in cholesterol levels. To test this hypothesis we propose to 1) use serum cholesterol levels to define ASD endophenotypes and 2) to perform genomic resequencing of all known exons in hypo- and normocholesterolemic ASD patients.

CANTON Jason A. Clark, a consultant and former director of the Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena, was named Monday as the replacement for Sallie A. Brothers, a St. Lawrence County legislator who resigned last month for health reasons.
Mr. Clark, 39, Norfolk, was chosen by an ad hoc committee of fellow Democrats and appointed at a special meeting of the county Board of Legislators. Mr. Clark said he hopes to emulate Mrs. Brothers as a legislator.
Im looking to act in the same manner, he said. I think the most important thing is speaking to people and listening to them and advocating for those issues.
Mr. Clark will fulfill the approximately one year Mrs. Brothers had left in her term and will have to run in 2014 with all of the other legislators if he wants to continue in the position.
Well take it day by day, he said. I would expect thats the way well go.
Mr. Clark has been one of the primary supporters of a four-lane highway for the north country. He is the owner of Clark Consulting LLC, which advises clients on fundraising, project management and grant application writing.
Mr. Clark said he was unable to seek political office when he worked for the Massena Business Development Corp. because of potential conflicts.
Ive had an interest in public service most of my life, he said. The timing seemed appropriate.
Mr. Clark started his political career right out of college when he was a Democratic candidate in an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the New York State Assembly.
He ran into problems with the political leadership in Massena during his tenure at the Massena BDC due, in part, to his close ties with Democratic candidates and his attendance at partisan political events.
Ms. Brothers predecessor, Norwood Mayor James McFaddin, said earlier Monday he had no interest in returning to the seat he had held for 17 years.
No, I havent considered the position. I served 17 years and have no intention of seeking that seat. I enjoyed the 17 years I served (as St. Lawrence County legislator) and have interest in continuing work and projects in the two and a half years left in my term as mayor, he said.
Ill be watching closely to see who is appointed. Its important to appoint someone who has solid support because you want to avoid a primary if you could. Its an important decision and a wise decision needs to be made on the appointment, Mr. McFaddin.
He also had high praise for the work Ms. Brothers did during her tenure on the county legislature. Sallie served admirably and served well at a very difficult time.She worked well with the municipalities and she was effective and when she made a commitment to assist she did. She was a unifying force at the right time, he said.

An Antarctic cruise ship diverted course for more than two days to reach a capsized yacht.
It took more than 50 hours for the cruise ship to reach the solo yachtsman who was stranded on a life raft in remote waters southwest of Tasmania.
The location was too distant for a helicopter rescue.
The French sailor, who set off at the beginning of october, abandoned his yacht after it was severely damaged in rough weather.
The Orion, which was carrying 100 passengers and 80 crew, was returning from Antarctica when it responded to the call for help.

BUFFALO, N.Y.- It was a homecoming event when the Dallas Stars visited the Buffalo Sabres at the First Niagara Center Monday night.
The game was the first in Buffalo for Lindy Ruff since he was fired by the Sabres and hired by the Dallas Stars. The same was true for Ruff's assistant, James Patrick. But another homecoming attracted far less attention.
While the Sabres played a tribute video for Ruff during the first period, the Zeis family held up a sign that read, "We love the Sabres and the Dallas trainer!"
West Seneca West grad David Zeis is in his 7th season as head athletic trainer for the Stars. Zeis, a life-long hockey player and former collegiate player at The College at Brockport, says it is always exciting coming home.
Zeis says that while he may work for the Stars, he'll always be a Sabres fan.

I was fortunate to be taken on a guided hike to Tamolitch Pool, on the McKenzie River Trail, on Tuesday, June 17th/2008. It is a 4 mile round trip hike, and for the most part relativley easy, some slight climbing. There were parents with children, and even hard core mountain bike riders, taking this trail, however it is not accessible to wheelchairs.
For the most part you are level with the river , with a slow climb, you are then looking down at the powerful raging river.
This trail leads you through magnificent old growth fir, hemlock and cedar, with wild rhododendrons, ferns of all kinds and a sprinkling of wild flowers.
As you get closer, you begin a climb through ancient lava beds and one can stand there and imagine how it must have been, thousands of years ago.
Much to my guides surprise, when we arrived at the Tamolitch Pool, we were greeted with the thunderous roar of a majestic waterfall. My guide who has hiked this trail many, many times in the 30 years she has lived in the area, has never, ever seen water coming over these cliffs.
I returned to the trail a few days later, to share this majestic sight with my husband, an Oregon native, and he had never been to Tamolitch Pool and I felt proud ( being as I am an Oregon transplant from Australia), to be able to show off this awesome sight. However I could see the difference in the amount of water coming over, and while it was still magnificent and rare sight, it was slowly dwindling.
These beautiful falls are as a result of excessive snow melt and the waters being re-diverted back over the cliffs.
The McKenzie River, gets its beginning at Clear Lake, drops over Sahalie and Koosah Falls, passing through Carmen Smith Reservoir, going undergound and re-emerges under Tamolitch Pool, where it continues its journey through the McKenzie River Valley and merges with the Willamette River, near the Beltline Highway Bridge.
Seeing these falls, and being able to document the entire hike with photos was an experience I will treasure. It could be another 30 years, before it returns, but I guess this is in the hands of Mother Nature.

How to prune in Autumn
After summer's vigorous growth, it's a good idea to give your shrubs a light prune in autumn to keep them in shape. With shrubs losing their leaves it's even more important to get the shape of uninhabited branches right, as they're on display until they blossom again in spring. Our autumn pruning guide can help you master the art of pruning by cleaning up branches after summer and tidying up in time for winter.
As the leading role of any garden, it is vital to keep shrubs in decent form through regular pruning. This will improve a plant's shape, helping them grow and stay healthier, as well as encourage flowers and fruits. Shrubs create the structure in a garden so it's important to keep them in good condition with regular pruning.
Buying guides
Lawnmowers buying guide
The sheer variety of lawnmowers you can choose from can be bewildering. After all, you could go for anything from a lightweight hover mower right up to a tractor mower with as many gears as a family car. If you do pick the right model, it'll really help you keep your lawn in good shape.
Luscious lawns - perfect lawns made easy
Your lawn is, more often than not, the centrepiece of the garden and a vital balancing element. Without it mixed borders can seem messy and overwhelming, and subtle planting combinations just get lost in the crowd. Keeping it neat and tidy can be a never ending task; we can help you get the right results from your lawn maintenance.

Note: Rick Nash Has The Same Philosophy As John Tortorella
Throughout the regular season many Rangers indicated that they generated their offense from their structure and play in the defense zone.
Ryan McDonagh said during the season that the Rangers used their defense to start their forecheck and set up plays off the rush.
John Tortorella said during the season that the Rangers can't get on track offensively when they are off the tracks defensively
Ryan Callahan agreed with similar statements made by his teammates, "That's the focus, to build off our defense to create chances at the other end. We have some guys struggling to produce but there's a feeling of confidence in the room that comes from us staying within our defensive structure."
In The Hockey News, Rick Nash said he believed in that same kind of philosophy "I played under Hitch for four years and I learned the defensive game then and I love it. You gain all your offense from solid defensive play. Hitch taught that to me at a young age and I really believe it"

I am not familiar with Louis Johnson, the SecDef under President Truman. But reading this paragraph about the Marine Corps does not inspire confidence in him:
After World War II, Louis Johnson, President Truman's defense secretary, argued that the Army had actually conducted a larger share of amphibious landings in the Pacific than the Marines had and that, in any event, the future of warfare made the Marines' principal mission outdated. Therefore, Johnson (working for the avowedly anti-Marine Truman) concluded that eliminating the Corps entirely would have no serious consequences for U.S. security. Just five years later, Marines under Douglas MacArthur's command executed one of the most extraordinary amphibious landings of all time at Inchon.
I may have to start reading more of Alexander B. Gray's articles. Very interesting.

Peter and the Starcatchersby Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson
Staff Pick
Peter and the Starcatchers is a nearly perfect, swashbuckling adventure that's sure to please girls and boys alike. A brilliantly conceived prequel to Peter Pan.
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In an evocative and fast-paced adventure on the high seas and on a faraway island, an orphan boy named Peter and his mysterious new friend, Molly, overcome bands of pirates and thieves in their quest to keep a fantastical secret safe and save the world from evil.
Award-winning authors Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson have turned back the clock and revealed a wonderful story that precedes J. M. Barrie's beloved Peter Pan. Peter and the Starcatchers is brimming with richly developed characters, from the scary but somehow familiar Black Stache and the ferocious Mister Grin to the sweet but sophisticated Molly and the fearless Peter. Page after page of riveting adventures take readers on a journey from a filthy, crime-ridden port in old England across the turbulent seas. Aboard the Never Land is a trunk that holds a magical substance that amazes — just a sprinkle, and wounds heal; just a dusting, and people can fly.
Roiling seas and dangerous thunderstorms are the backdrop for battles at sea. Bone-crushing waves eventually land our characters on Prawn Island — where the action really heats up.
This impossible-to-put-down tale leads readers on an unforgettable journey, fraught with danger yet filled with mystical and magical things.
"Bestselling adult authors Barry and Pearson imagine a rollicking adventure as a prequel to J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan. Those curious about how Captain Hook lost his hand, why Peter never ages and can fly, and how a band of boys came to live in Never Land, will be sated by the magic-dusted plot points and the lively pirate confabulation here. As the novel opens, Peter and several others from St. Norbert's Home for Wayward Boys are shipped off on the ship Never Land to be servants to the cruel King of Rundoon. On board, Peter meets Molly Aster (sharp readers will surmise she is an ancestor of Wendy), who reveals herself to Peter as a Starcatcher and imparts secrets of certain falling stars and the precious 'starstuff' cache below deck. But all is not smooth sailing, as pirate Black Stache and his mates (including Smee) get wind of the treasure. Several sea chases and battles and a couple of shipwrecks later, all the key players end up on the island of Mollusk. As all sides try to obtain the gold-glowing contents of the trunk, talking dolphins and a giant crocodile also make the scene. The tale contains a few too many skirmishes over said treasure, but the authors keep the pace brisk and the chapters brief, employing humorous exchanges (e.g., Black Stache 'had a real soft spot for his ma, and was truly sorry for the time he'd marooned her'), slapstick action — and flying, of course. Peter Pan fans will find much to like in a what-if scenario that pays respectful tribute to the original. Ages 10-up. (Sept.) " Publishers Weekly (Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"A 452-page romp that's so fun and fast-paced, kids will get whiplash from turning the pages." Cecelia Goodnow, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
"With swashbuckling action, constant peril and lots of fun-to-mimic pirate talk... Peter and the Starcatchers is just the kind of book parents would enjoy reading, a few chapters at a time, to their kid....This is a book chockablock with funny bits and derring-do." Sue Corbett, Miami Herald
"[A] rousing tale....The real lure is the richly drawn characters, especially the villains....
"[A] compulsively readable prequel....This doesn't capture the subtler literary qualities of its progenitor, but readers drawn by authorial star power or swashbuckling will come away satisfied." Kirkus Reviews
Don'teven think of starting this bookunless you're sitting in a comfortable chair and have lots of time. Afast-paced, impossible-to-put-down adventure awaits as the young orphan Peterand his mates are dispatched to an island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. Theyset sail aboard the Never Land, a ship carrying a precious and mysterious trunk inits cargo hold, and the journey quickly becomes fraught with excitement anddanger.
Discoverrichly developed characters in the sweet but sophisticated Molly, the scary butfamiliar Black Stache, and the fearless Peter. Treacherous battles withpirates, foreboding thunderstorms at sea, and evocative writing immerses thereader in a story that slowly and finally reveals the secrets and mysteries ofthe beloved Peter Pan.

National Public Radio (NPR) reported that under the 1994 Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE), signed into law by President Clinton, "the Justice Department's civil rights division has filed eight civil cases since the start of the Obama administration. That's a big increase over the George W. Bush years, when one case was filed in eight years."
Subtly connecting the efforts of peaceful pro-lifers with the violent murder of late-term Wichita abortionist George Tiller by a lone gunman, NPR cited the claims of the National Abortion Federation that major violence against abortionists (which has never risen above isolated incidents — all of them condemned by legitimate pro-life groups) has plummeted over the past two years, thanks, in part, to DOJ diligence in pursuing "anti-abortion" activists.

David Foster Wallace
Marion Ettlinger
Feb. 21, 1962 - Sept. 12, 2008
David Foster Wallace used his prodigious gifts as a writer — his manic, exuberant prose, his ferocious powers of observation, his ability to fuse avant-garde techniques with old-fashioned moral seriousness — to create a series of strobe-lit portraits of a millennial America overdosing on the drugs of entertainment and self-gratification, and to capture, in the words of the musician Robert Plant, the myriad "deep and meaningless" facets of contemporary life.
A prose magician, Mr. Wallace was capable of writing — in his fiction and nonfiction — about subjects from tennis to politics to lobsters, from the horrors of drug withdrawal to the small terrors of life aboard a luxury cruise ship, with humor and fervor and verve. At his best he could write funny, write sad, write sardonic and write serious. He could map the infinite and infinitesimal, the mythic and mundane. He could conjure up an absurd future — an America in which herds of feral hamsters roam the land — while conveying the inroads the absurd has already made in a country where old television shows are a national touchstone and asinine advertisements wallpaper our lives. — Michiko Kakutani

ReebokIn 1890, Joseph William Foster was manufacturing regular running shoes when he came up with an idea to put spikes on the bottom of a shoe for running track. In 1895, he partnered with his sons and founded a running shoe company under the name of J.W. Foster and Sons.
In 1958, Foster's grandsons Joe and Jeff renamed the company Reebok, after a type of African gazelle. They discovered the name in a South African dictionary Joe won in a childhood race.
Reebok came into prominence in the early 1980s, thanks to the introduction of the Freestyle training shoe specifically designed for women participating in the aerobics fitness craze. The Reebok Freestyle was popular not only as athletic wear but also as a casual shoe because of its styling and comfort.
Reebok shoes with ZigTech technology are designed to conserve and return energy to the athlete and provide a soft, springy ride. The ZigTech outsole features an innovative, lightweight foam that is engineered into a zig-zag shaped sole that absorbs the impact of heel strike and sends a wave of energy along the length of the shoe, propelling the athlete forward with each step.
RealFlex shoes feature 76 independent "sensors" on the outsole that are strategically positioned to adapt to all training surfaces. These "sensors" work together throughout the runner's stride, promoting natural movement and flexibility. RealFlex promotes and enhances natural movement in a way that allows the athlete to move the way nature intended. The result is a shoe that delivers all the benefits of barefoot running with the protection of a traditional running shoe.
CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program designed to help people gain a broad and general fitness. Designed to prepare people for any physical challenge, CrossFit programs concentrate on constantly varied functional movements that are performed at a high intensity to achieve overall physical fitness. Reebok CrossFit shoes and clothing are made to meet the demands and needs of CrossFit athletes.

GOUVERNEUR A Norwood man and his mother were being held Friday in St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility for allegedly kidnapping a 10-year-old girl from Pennsylvania that he claimed was his daughter.
Peter A. Tarbox, 39, and his mother, Annette M. Williams, 55, both of 6 Maple St., Norwood, face charges of kidnapping for ransom, interference with custody of children and endangering the welfare of children.
The two were taken into custody Thursday night after they were found at a gas station in Gouverneur with the girl, Alexandria Jade Long, who was unhurt. She was reunited with her mother, Laura McCabe.
Pennsylvania State Police activated the New York AMBER Alert late Thursday afternoon after investigating a confirmed child abduction that occurred about 4:30 p.m. Thursday on Oak Street in Gordon, Pa. The alert noted the suspect was believed to be heading to Norwood.
The alert stated that Mr. Tarbox was a former acquaintance of the abducted childs mother from seven years ago and that he was not related to the child.
Butler Township Police Department Chief Edward J. Tarantelli said Mrs. McCabe told investigators that Tarbox was not the girls father but that they had previously lived with him.
We have nothing indicating he is the father, Chief Tarantelli said. They have not lived with him for several years.
The child reconnected with Tarbox through Facebook about two months ago. When Mrs. McCabe discovered they were communicating on the social networking site, she blocked her daughters access to Tarbox, Chief Tarantelli said.
According to the criminal complaint, Mrs. McCabe was napping when her husband, John, came home from work about 4 p.m. Thursday. He told police that the child was playing a video game when he arrived. Mr. McCabe told investigators that the child was gone after he came back into the room after taking a shower.
Mr. McCabe told police he looked around the house and through a nearby park for the child before waking his wife and contacting authorities. The last incoming call on the telephone was from a number that Mrs. McCabe recognized as that of Tarbox.
We believe the phone call he made was to have her come out and meet him, Chief Tarantelli said.
Mrs. McCabe told police that she called Tarbox and that he admitted having the child with him and had no intention of returning her.
Chief Tarantelli said he had no evidence that the child was mistreated while in the care of her mother.
This is the first contact weve had with this family since they moved into the area, he said.
Chief Tarantelli applauded the work of Gouverneur police officer Darren J. Fairbanks, who stopped Mr. Tarbox and his mother. The patrolman had an AMBER alert app on his personal cellphone.
He recognized the suspect was from his locality and he took note of it, Chief Tarantelli said. It was a heck of a job.
Tarbox and Williams were arraigned in Gouverneur Town Court as fugitives from justice from Pennsylvania and ordered held in jail to await extradition.
Chief Tarantelli said the Federal Bureau of Investigation is taking over the case, which will be prosecuted by the U.S. attorneys office.

|Ball, Brantz, Pena, and David Take Boone Races
|Written by Steve Frank

There's a new Mayor in Boone, with Andy Ball taking the office by a large margin—joined by a long-time council member and two newcomers. Early voters determined the outcome of the election, giving Ball 603 of his 1066 votes, with John Mena second with 350, Brad Harmon with 150, and 113 write-in votes for Jennifer Church.
Incumbent councilman Rennie Brantz led all voters with 1127 votes, but only one vote ahead of newcomer Jennifer Pena—the two taking the two four-year terms. Taking the final two-year term is newcomer Frank Quint David, with 1028 votes.

PORTLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Last March, record warm temperatures had gardeners chomping at the bit, while some farmers' nerves were frayed by the prospect of early blossoms that could be damaged by a late frost.
Apple farms, like Randall Orchards in Standish, had trees full of blossoms weeks ahead of schedule thanks to unseasonably warm temperatures. The concern quickly became what would happen to their crops if the weather returned to normal.
Randall Orchards was spared that outcome, but not all apple farmers were so lucky.
"This is probably closer to a normal Maine year," stated Shawn Brannigan, general manager at Allen, Sterling, and Lothrop Garden Center, as he plowed out his parking lot. "Last year was very unusually early."
"We already had in loads of tress at this time last year. We were already selling bark mulch and compost to landscapers in bulk," he added. "What was so nice about last year is that our season is so tight already, so it spread it out so we could service people a little better."
He says he expects gardeners to be ready to start digging in the earth once they finish digging out from this latest storm.
"You probably could plant peas right now if you got the snow out of the way," reasoned Brannigan.
Another group of people looking for relief from Old Man Winter are the boys of summer.
"I think Mother Nature is not a baseball fan, but this is just part of playing baseball in Maine," said Chris Cameron, the assistant general manager of the Portland Sea Dogs. "Whenever we open up at home, all the odd years, we have the late winter storms."
Prior to this most recent storm, Hadlock Field was nearing game shape, now it is buried under yet another blanket of snow.
"We've gotten used to this over the years, and we have got the best grounds crew around, so we have no doubt that we will have this field ready to go for opening day on April 4th," said Cameron.
Cameron is not relying solely on the weather to make this bold prediction. He says members of the grounds crew will be at the ballpark, shovels in hand, early Wednesday morning to start clearing the field to help give them a better chance of being ready for the season.
