Master of Divinity (MDiv)
The Master of Divinity (MDiv) at Pacific School of Religion is a graduate professional degree that prepares students for lay and ordained ministry, related vocations, and further academic study. The program meets the educational requirements for ordained ministry in most major Protestant denominations. Within the framework of a curriculum of required course work in biblical studies, history, theology, ethics, field education, formation for leadership, cultural resources for ministry, and ministerial practices for leadership, MDiv students can shape their course of study to reflect their particular interests or specialized ministries. We encourage students to pursue an understanding of their own faith tradition in light of global, ecumenical, and inter-disciplinary concerns, institutions, and movements represented at PSR and the Graduate Theological Union (GTU). The goal of the M.Div. program is to provide students with:
• The ability to draw critically on the biblical Christian heritage and resources of contemporary society to provide for their own spiritual and ministerial formation and to prepare effective leaders to the Christian movement in witness and mission.
• Insight and skill for communicating Christian faith and ethics through preaching, teaching, speaking, writing, personal involvement, contemporary visual electronic media, arts, and other appropriate means.
• The capability, experience, and willingness to take leadership in social change on behalf of the prophetic witness of the Christian tradition and its commitment to justice and love.
• Knowledge, experience, and willingness to lead Christian communities in worship and to prepare laity to participate

Denominational Requirements
Each denomination has a unique set of requirements to be fulfilled by persons seeking ordination. The MDiv degree is just one of those requirements.

We provide the church polity courses and field education required by the United Church of Christ, United Methodist Church, and Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Students seeking ordination in other denominations may fulfill church polity, language, and internship requirements at other GTU schools or through specially designed reading courses. Note that while the denominational courses we offer may be required for your ordination, they are not required for the MDiv and if taken will usually be counted as part of your electives.

ORLEANS–Whether they were motivated by the Lake Region Pep Band's rendition of the Star Spangled Banner or not, I will never know, but the Ranger boys came out firing on all cylinders, out-scoring BFA Fairfax 25-6 in the opening quarter en-route to the 69-49 win over the Bullets.
"We really competed tonight," said junior Clint Provoncha. "We have not had as good of an effort as we wanted in the last few games. Now it is getting a lot better as we start making our move towards the play-offs."
Kris Wehner led all scorers with 22 points, while Clint Provoncha had 20 points and three rebounds for Lake Region.
Beauregard finished the game with 16 points and and 2 boards, and Dennis Newland scored 13 points and grabbed a rebound.

The Knicks Are #1!!
In a report over at the NY Post, it seems that the Knicks have done a top-of-the-line job in setting up the team's flexibility for the 2010 season.
"In re-signing Lee and Robinson for just one year, the Knicks emerge from the offseason with a league-best $21 million in cap room to spend on 2010's free-agent class. The Knicks will need to be at least $16 million under to offer LeBron James the maximum contract next July 1.
"We have the most room in the league," Walsh said. "That's good. We're No. 1."
We still have a 2009 season to play, right?
Whether or not you are a fan of DW's master plan, it is great news to hear that something is going right in Knicks-land these days. While there is no doubt that the other under-the-cap suitors will be in serious play next summer as well, being #1 in this category should have its dividends.
Considering Walsh has been targeting next summer as "the first day of the rest of the Knicks' life" since the day he was hired, I trust him to use this flexibility in a smart and savvy way.

Pinnacle Canyon principal Mark Stuckenschneider surrounded by students at a recent mid-morning basketball game.
While many school teachers use past positive experiences to go into the field, Mark Stuckenschneider, principal of Pinnacle Canyon Academy in Price, came into the profession because of vastly different reasons.
"It wasn't that I had bad teachers," he said. "It's just that I had a very difficult time. In fact, I was almost kicked out of Catholic school. So, I know what a lot of children are going through.
"Not everyone is a straight-A student," he said. So, I have a lot of empathy for those who struggle. There is no such thing as a bad kid, just kids who make bad decisions. It's up to adults to help them make the right ones.
"I wasn't necessarily a trouble-maker," he added, "but I was bored a lot. I needed challenges."
And over the next two decades, challenges would present themselves to the Salt Lake City native. A graduate of Southern Methodist University (located in University neider began his career in special education before moving on to more conventional roles in teaching. He spent time in the Salt Lake system before coming to Pinnacle Canyon almost seven years ago.
"I am very lucky to have found Pinnacle," he said. "What's special about this school is the very diverse level of cirriculum. We have something here for all levels of academic progress - the challenges for the higher end students and the special attention for those who need extra assistance."
PCA is unique in several ways. First, it is a kindergarten through 12th grade venue (quite rare since the demise of the one-room schoolhouse in the nineteenth century), second, because it is a charter school, which means there are little if any geographic restrictions on its student base; and third, elementary pupils are required to abide by a uniform-type dress code. The facility freely floats between public and parochial and has been called a religious school with no theology classes.
Also, because of its relatively small size (about 225 pupils in the elementary level, 250 in the upper grades), no classroom contains over 20 students.
And to show his commitment to the cause, Stuckenschneider's own two children even attend school there.
"We're small, but we're like a family," he said. "We have a broad spectrum of children here, with special needs all of their own. Some, though, have more needs than others."
Praising the instructors and staff, Stuckenschneider said, "Our teachers take on a variety of roles, have a keen insight and are very good at being aware of their pupils' needs. Our staff, from top to bottom, is absolutely amazing. If I'm the so-called 'face' of this school, the staff is the heart and soul of it. They are all in tune - not just with their responsibilities, but with the kids, as well."
And speaking of the children, Stuckenschneider has high praise for them, too, saying, "These students are the only reason I come to work everyday. Children are amazing. They can make you laugh and brighten your day even when you're down. They make all of us come in each day. I believe they will be caring, bright, hard-working adults."
Because of Pinnacle's unusual K-12 structure, the higher level students often mentor the younger ones. "We call this 'service learning,'" Stuckenschneider said. "They will help them read, do math tutoring and just be a big brother or big sister to them. It makes a younger child feel really special when older peer - not necessarily an adult - spends time with them."
Stuckenschneider was also keen to discuss the school's "Community of Caring" concept, five pillars of social awareness, including caring, respect, responsibility, trust and family. It was an idea from Eunice Shriver Kennedy, the wife of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy.
The original concept for "Community of Caring" was to create a school environment in which children with intellectual disabilities would gain the skills to become strong, independent and joyful, whose decisions would be hopeful, caring, responsible and endowed with a sense of freedom.
It was hoped that young people would be able to make decisions that would enlarge their capacities to contribute to the goodness of their families, schools, communities and nation.
To this end, Pinnacle became a part of the growing community of schools which hold this creedo near and dear.
Another concept particular to this institution is that parents are required to volunteer at least four hours per month. In this way, each mom and dad (or in some case, a grandparent or legal guardian) sort of gives back and helps keep the system clicking on all cylinders. Even Stuckenschneider's wife, Sonja, does puts in her volunteer hours.
"Our parents and family members are teriffic," Stuckenschneider added. "They work hard and are just as interested in seeing this school succeed as myself and the staff are.
"Families really have to commit to their children's education," he added. "There is no free bus transportation here and sometimes that's a huge commitment in time and money for some."
But the fun seems to overwhelm the negative, especially when one discovers that swimming lessons (at the Desert Wave Pool) are given to K-6 students and fifth graders are eligible to earn a trip each year to Washington D.C.
Another aspect of the facility that makes the principal proud is its accentuation of new technology. Each instructor has a laptop and there are Elmo's and Smart Boards (sort of an interactive whiteboard) in every class.
The kindergarteners are even putting on a PowerPoint presentation in the near future. "I am very impressed with our use of technology," he said.
Stuckenschneider hopes, when his tenure is over, people remember his time as a period when character mattered more than grade point average.
"Grades and tests are important, sure," he said. "But it's character that counts in life. It's what kind of person one is, not necessarily what degrees he or she has earned that really makes a difference."

Less than a day after the Senate passed the Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act (NY SAFE) the Assembly approved the bill in a 104 to 43 vote on Tuesday.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo signed the bill into law just after 5 p.m. and hailed it as a common sense move for the state.
Key provisions of the law include a tougher assault weapons ban, stricter regulations on ammunition, more serious penalties for those who facilitate the acquisition of a rifle for someone who is unqualified, harsher sentences for those who murder first responders and mental health screening designed to keep firearms away from the mentally ill.
The law will also require background checks on all firearm purchases, including private sales.
By passing measures to keep guns out of the hands of those that tend to target our volunteers and children, we are honoring all our first responders and the memories of those that have died needlessly, Assemblywoman Addie J. Russell, D-Theresa said in a statement.
The law further prevents detailed information about pistol permit carriers being available to the public – a key issue for Mrs. Russell.
Peter B. OConnell, lobbyist for the Firemans Association of the State of New York, said the inclusion of harsher penalties against those who murder first responders was a pleasant surprise and very well received by the groups legislative committee.
But the Assemblys passage of the bill was not without opposition. More than four hours of at times heated debate passed before the law was approved during which numerous grievances were brought to the floor.
Several upstate gun dealers are unhappy with the legislation.
Joseph J. Russell, owner of Hilltop Hunting and Fishing, Canton, said the legislation signed into law on Tuesday will have a crippling impact on his business.
In my opinion its going to end the gun business in this state, Mr. Russell said.
NY SAFE is costing me $200,000 a year in sales, conservatively, Mr. Russell added, due to the weapons he will no longer be able to sell. NY SAFE is a sweeping piece of legislation designed to fundamentally impact the states gun culture.
The new definition of an assault weapon includes any semi-automatic rifle with detachable magazines and one of the following characteristics: a folding or telescoping stock, a pistol grip, a thumb hole stock, a second hand grip, a bayonet mount, a threaded barrel, a flash suppressor, a muzzle break, a muzzle compensator or a grenade launcher.
Semi-automatic pistols and shotguns fall under similar classifications.
Under the law, assault weapons currently owned in the state will need to be registered and cannot be sold to anyone within the state besides licensed dealers.
The law also requires every purchase of ammunition be accompanied by a state background check.
Assemblyman Joseph R. Lentol, D-Brooklyn, cosponsor of the bill, said NY SAFE was drafted with help from the state police.
This bill was not drafted in an ivory tower, Mr. Lentol said, responding to criticism that NY SAFE inadequately reflects the reality of gun ownership in the state.
Much of the criticism, however, revolved around the speed at which the law was acted on.
We only received this law 14 hours ago, Assemblyman J. Anthony Jordan, R-Jackson, said.
Mr. Jordan went on to say that the Legislature had not had the opportunity to examine this by the light of day.
That being said, Mr. Jordan was particularly disappointed with the stipulation requiring all ammunition purchases to be accompanied by a background check.
If I go to a local sporting store to buy .22 shells there is now a process that has to be followed, Mr. Jordan said, arguing that the regulation goes too far.
Assemblyman Kenneth D. Blankenbush, R-Black River, said the law doesnt do enough to deal with the mentally ill.
Until we straighten out what kind of prescriptions and what kind of drugs our young people are on, we may never stop the violence that is going on today, Mr. Blankenbush said.
State Senator Joseph A. Griffo (R-Rome) cited concerns over the magazine limitations and backgrounds checks for ammunition purchases when commenting on his reason for not supporting the legislation. Anyone with more than seven rounds in an ammunition clip violates the law, even if the ammo is in an old currently legal clip sitting locked up inside the house, Mr. Griffo said in a statement.
With provisions like that, I do not believe we are enhancing public safety in a meaningful way, or preventing criminals from getting guns, as much as placing new restrictions on honest, law-abiding gun owners and sportsmen.
Mr. Griffo noted he did support aspects of the bill that aim to keep deadly weapons out of the hands of the mentally ill, and a provision that would give anyone who kills an emergency first reponder a life sentence without chance for parole.
But Mr. Griffo found issue with the way so many different pieces of legislation were lumped together.
I want a bill that would have a meaningful result, and Im not sure that this legislation goes after the roots aspects of the issue, he said. Are these measures truly going to prevent the horrors (of gun-violence) that weve seen?
Mr. Griffo also found fault with how the legislation was crafted late at night and worries the speed at which the bill was written and passed in the Senate will cause lawmakers to ignore the feelings of their constituents. He would like to see longer, more comprehensive national discussions that more deeply examine issues of unregistered firearms, diagnoses and treatment of mental health issues and Americas culture of violence, stemming from violent television, films and video games.
Mr. Lentol admitted several chapter amendments will be required for the bill. In particular the bill has confusing language that could be read to require even law enforcement officers be unarmed in school buildings.
Thats another boo-boo we have in this bill, Assemblyman Alfred C. Graf, R-Holbrook, said.
Following the passage of the law, high capacity magazines that are not classified as relics must be turned in to the authorities. Ten-round magazines will no longer be sold in the state but anyone who owns one can still use it so long as they do not put more than seven rounds in it.
Anyone owning an assault weapon has one year to register it. A failure to register an assault weapon could result in being charged with a class E felony.

LEWISTON, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Lewiston Mayor-Elect Bob Macdonald formally apologized Thursday for comments he made just after winning office on Tuesday.
Macdonald told reporters that his opponent's campaign was spreading rumors about him and threatened that they'd get a surprise on Thursday.
The surprise, he said Thursday, is that he's a nice guy and he wants to work with anyone who's interested in improving the city. He said the only payback his campaign adversaries will receive is knowing that he's not a bad guy, and that he really is willing to work with anyone to make lewiston a better place.
Macdonald said, "This is Bob Macdonald. Happy face. And I will, from this time on until I end my time in office, be Bob Macdonald, happy face, the face of Lewiston."
Macdonald said he sees his term as a time of transition for the city, setting a foundation of building up business for the next generation. He wants anyone with ideas and business expertise to call him or city hall.
"My goal is to be taking away business from Portland," Macdonald said. "I want this to be a place where people want to come and look to come."
Macdonald also got choked up, talking about how he wants veterans with post traumatic stress disorder to get the help they need. He said too many of them don't take advantage of the VA.
"Seek help," Macdonald said. "There's nothing to be ashamed of. It's just like a purple heart, but they don't have a medal for it. And I just ask that that message get out. Because it's really concerning. And, I'll tell you, I'm getting a little emotional here."
Later, emotions spilled over in a different way, as Abdi Fatah Ahmet, an immigrant who says he's a pharmacist and landlord in the city, accused Macdonald of running an anti-immigrant campaign, seizing on stereotypes that immigrants come to Lewiston to live off welfare.
Ahmet said, "Are you going to apologize to people you offended? Like me? Are you going to apologize?" Macdonald replied, "I will apologize to the people that work. I will apologize to the people who have a job. If you thought that's what I said -- I didn't say that. But if you thought that's what I said, I'm sorry."
Ahmet told reporters he was not satisfied with that answer. "We didn't get an apology," Ahmet said. "We didn't get the apology we asked for and we still ask for an apology from him."

The rise in solar power in Hawaii is requiring firefighters to learn new ways to battle flames. On Thursday, Honolulu became the first metropolitan department in the nation to hold solar panel training for its entire force.
As you save energy, firefighters need to learn ways to save your house without getting electrocuted. Firefighters said the solar panels on your roof create a mini-power plant.
"When we are operating and shooting water in the house we can now create an electrical hazard from the conductivity of the water causing a shock to the firefighter inside," said Capt. Terry Seelig with the Honolulu Fire Department.
Even if firefighters shut off the main electrical unit in your house the solar panels still produce electricity.
"Since solar modules are so efficient at producing electricity we are limited on shutting them down," said Capt. Matt Paiss with Energy Response Solutions.
But, firefighters learned shading them is one of the best tactics to turn off the panels electricity. They plan on using those tactics more often since more Hawaii residents are going green.
"Each year we are multiplying the numbers of people who have gone solar so these things are all over Oahu," said Jon Yoshimura with SolarCity.
The training comes in a timely manner that will help those fighting fire to eliminate the extra hazards they run into when they are trying to save your house.
184 photovoltaic permits were issued in Honolulu just for the week of March 18 to 24. Despite a new law to cut the solar tax credit, the amount of permits issued this year has gone up about 47 percent compared to the same period last year.

Indian-administered Kashmir's main city was under curfew after the killing of five paramilitary police and the death of two civilians cranked up tensions in the disputed region. Kashmir's inspector general of police Abdul Gani Mir said a round-the-clock curfew order had been imposed in the city of Srinagar while there were similar restrictions in other towns and villages in the Kashmir Valley.

Joe DiMaggioBaseball Player
Born: 25 November 1914
Died: 8 March 1999 (cancer)
Birthplace: Martinez, California
Best known as:
"Joltin' Joe," legendary Yankee center fielder
Joe DiMaggio was one of the most gifted batters in pro baseball history. (Ted Williams once called him "the greatest all-around player I ever saw.") A center fielder for the New York Yankees, Joe DiMaggio was best known for getting a hit in a 56 straight games in 1941, a streak that still stands as a major league record. DiMaggio's graceful demeanor and extraordinary talent made him one of the great popular heroes of his day and earned him the nicknames "Joltin' Joe" and "The Yankee Clipper." He played all of his 13 big-league seasons for the Yankees (1936-42, 1946-51) before retiring in 1951. He was briefly married to actress Marilyn Monroe in 1954, and his continued devotion after their divorce was legendary: for years after her death in 1962 he sent flowers weekly to her grave. In the 1970's and '80s he was a familiar television pitchman for Mr. Coffee automatic coffeemakers. Joe DiMaggio was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1955.
Extra credit:
Joe DiMaggio wore uniform #5 and hit and threw right-handed... His brothers Vince DiMaggio (1912-86) and Dom DiMaggio (1917-2009) also played pro baseball. Vince was an All Star twice and Dom was an All Star seven times. All three brothers played center field... Joe DiMaggio's baseball career was interrupted for three years while he served in the Army Air Corps during World War II... Joe DiMaggio was the subject of the 2000 biography A Hero's Life by Richard Ben Cramer... The phrase "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?" comes from the Simon and Garfunkel song "Mrs. Robinson"... Joe DiMaggio was played by actor Scott Bakula in the short-lived Broadway play Marilyn in 1983... Joe DiMaggio's gravestone reads "Grace, dignity and elegance personified"... Other famous New York Yankees include Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Mickey Mantle and Jim Bouton.

Back On: Restoring Power
When outages occur, we ask you to make safety your top concern until our crews can locate and repair damage. Remember to never go near a downed power line. Restoration times vary depending on the level of damage, but our teams are trained to restore power through a 3-phase process to get your lights back on as quickly and safely as possible.
Phase 1: Assess & Protect
We send cross-trained workers into the field to locate and monitor safety hazards such as downed wires and poles. Our crews then make sure electricity is off for your safety, and ensure power is flowing to critical facilities, like hospitals, fire stations, and other essential services.
Phase 2: Repair Damage
Once damage has been assessed and safety measures enacted, we dispatch crews to make repairs. Substations — keystones of our infrastructure that house electrical equipment — along with main electric lines and wires must be mended in order to restore power to your home or business.
Phase 3: Restore Power
Once damage is repaired, we begin restoring power to homes and buildings. If you notice that a neighbor's power is back before your own, don't worry; your home may be on a different circuit or line in the process of being restored. We appreciate your patience as we work as quickly as possible to turn your lights back on.
Stay Safe: What You Should Do
During a power outage, the top priority is your safety. Familiarize yourself with our Safety Checklist, and most importantly stay away from downed power lines. If your lights flicker or go out, there are steps you can take to determine whether an outage is happening while staying safe.More Less
Common Causes of Outages
If Your Lights Dim or Flicker:
- Unplug computers and sensitive electronics
- Disconnect motor-powered appliances — such as air conditioners — by either unplugging them or turning off their circuit breaker. When possible, turn off refrigerators by using their controls
In the Event of Power Loss:
- Check your fuse or breaker box, then replace any blown fuses, or reset any tripped circuit breakers by switching the breaker to "Off," then back to "On"
- If your fuses and circuit breakers look normal, call a neighbor to see whether the power is out next door or the problem is isolated to your home
- Turn off lights and unplug major appliances and electronics to prevent electrical overload when the power is restored. Leave one light on so you'll know when the outage is over
- If your neighbor's power comes back on for an hour or more but yours doesn't, call us. There may be damage we are unaware of, and the information you provide is helpful to us to pinpoint the trouble
When You Call Us:
- Please have your customer account number ready, as well as your name, telephone number, address and a cross street
- Tell us if you heard a loud boom, saw an accident, can see sparks or know of downed trees or poles in your neighborhood

By KEVIN SCANNELLSun Advocate reporter
Carbon High School will have to wait a few more days to see if the Dino is chosen as the best high school mascot in the western U.S.
USA Today High School Sports said the contest became so popular with people logging onto the site to vote, that many visitors were unable to vote or dealt with a slow response while on the voting page. Because of that, a statement on the website said the contest resumed on Monday, March 18 and will continue through Wednesday until 1 p.m. Mountain Time.
The winners will advance to the national voting portion where the best mascot would be crowned.
The Carbon High Dino lead the voting in Region 6 with 1,500,016 votes (40.023 percent) with the Oregon Episcopal Aardvarks trailing with 1,498,853 (39.992 percent) at press time.
As of 4 p.m. on Monday, the school was keeping the computer lab open until midnight for people to use the computers to vote.

Buffalo, NY -- Starting Friday, it may take you more time to cross back over the U.S. border.
The Homeland Security Department is cracking down by ordering customs to pull over every international student to verify that they have a valid student visa. This move comes after the Obama administration revealed a student from Kazakhstan, accused of hiding evidence for one of the Boston bombing suspects, was allowed back into the U.S. without a valid student visa.
"First thing this morning, I had students entering my office already saying just to let you know, every single one of us has been pulled into secondary inspection," says D'Youville's Laryssa Petryshyn.
Petryshyn is the Director the International Student Office, and she started getting phone calls and visits from some of her 340 Canadian students Friday morning wondering why all of the sudden they were going through increased security as they commuted to class.
"A few of them were late for their exams, thankfully we do have professors here and an administration that understands about the border issues, so they were accommodating to them," she says.
Petryshyn called the Peace Bridge Port Supervisor who told her Washington did not take border commuter students into consideration when issuing this latest security measure. She added that he also told her that D'Youville commuter students will be given priority over others pulled into secondary inspection.
This all prompted Petryshyn to send out a campus-wide urgent email about the situation.
Friday night, NITTEC even tweeted about delays entering the United States on the Peace Bridge saying they were 1 to 2 Hours. A few hours later, NITTEC reported border crossings of 30 minutes or less.
"There is frustration when things happen, but they do understand if there is a directive from Washington and Homeland Security is saying that maybe there is a security threat, I don't know what's going on, because they're not saying what it is, but that they understand," says Petryshyn of the delays.
For now, Petryshyn is telling her students to leave two hours earlier than normal to get through security.
"They're doing their job. Everybody needs to be doing their job that's working with international students, and I think we understand that and the students understand that as well," she says.
She will check with the Port Supervisor again on Monday to see if any progress has been made over the weekend.
We contacted our Congressmen and Senator Schumer to see if they are working on anything to ease the situation, but did not get responses as of Friday night.

Thoracic spine x-ray
A thoracic spine x-ray is an x-ray of the twelve chest (thoracic) bones (vertebrae). The vertebrae are separated by flat pads of cartilage that cushion them.
Alternative Names
Vertebral radiography; X-ray - spine; Thoracic x-ray; Spine x-ray; Thoracic spine films; Back films
How the test is performed
The test is done in a hospital radiology department or in the health care provider's office. You will lie on the x-ray table in different positions. If the x-ray is checking for an injury, care will be taken to prevent further injury.
The x-ray machine will be moved over the thoracic area of the spine. You will hold your breath as the picture is taken, so that the picture will not be blurry. Usually two or three x-ray views are needed.
How to prepare for the test
Tell the health care provider if you are pregnant. Remove all jewelry.
How the test will feel
The test causes no discomfort. The table may be cold.
Why the test is performed
The x-ray helps evaluate:
- Bone injuries
- Cartilage loss
- Diseases of the bone
- Tumors of the bone
What abnormal results mean
The test can detect:
- Bone spurs
- Deformaties of the spine
- Disk narrowing
- Dislocations
- Fractures
- Thinning of the bone (osteoporosis)
- Wearing away (degeneration) of the vertebrae
What the risks are
There is low radiation exposure. X-rays are monitored and regulated to provide the minimum amount of radiation exposure needed to produce the image. Most experts feel that the risk is low compared with the benefits.
Pregnant women and children are more sensitive to the risks of x-rays.
Special considerations
The x-ray will not detect problems in the muscles, nerves, and other soft tissues, because these problems can't be seen well on an x-ray.

I know Nationalguard.com already has a unit finder but the abbreviations used for the actual units mean next to nothing for someone with no prior service. Further more once you know what the string of abbreviations means you may not know all what jobs are available through that unit. I know the simple answer is to tell everyone to just talk to a recruiter but I feel a lot of people like to do the research on their own first. The Air National Guard has a good unit finder on the goang.com website; http://www.goang.com/Careers?tab=3#tabLoaded3 and something similar to this I think could be very help on this website as well.

Unit Finder
Re: Unit Finder
To be fair, the people who are most up to date on what jobs are available are the recruiters. While I understand people want to research on their own, they also come here with a ton of specific questions...many of which, only their local recruiter can answer.Last edited by SteveLord; October 13th, 2011, 10:41 PM.

Re: Unit Finder
My point was more that when I was decided between the two branches had it not been for my family history with the Army the feature alone would have probably been enough to get me to contact an Air National Guard recruiter instead because I had a lot better idea of what was available in the area. Its just my two cents on how I think the website could improve.

The answer to your question may already be here.
Re: Unit Finder
You really need to work with your recruiter. You've already experienced a situation in which your lack of background in military matters has caused some confusion. A data dump of uninterpreted information will only make your situation worse. Knowing the units and their authorized manning rosters is quite misleading. Do they have any vacancies? Do they have any pending vacancies? In the MOS I want? In the MOS for which I'm qualified? Is that unit pending a force structure change? Does another unit have a similar job with a bonus attached? These and other considerations make your recruiter critical.
Before you look at units and MOS, you need to determine what is most important to you and prioritize. That way, if you must make a sacrifice, you've already determined your evaluation criteria. For many people, the shortest AIT is most important, so they can fit it into their college plans, and are willing to take any MOS that works with their schedule. Some desperately want a particular MOS, and will gladly drive four hours to drill to get it. Until you figure out what you want, you don't have the basis for making these decisions.

The League of Women Voters of California is celebrating a historic voting rights victory: the right to vote is being restored to nearly 60,000 people who had previously been incarcerated.
The U.S. Supreme Court issued a big victory for citizen-led democracy. In a 5-4 decision in Arizona State Legislature v. Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission, the Court found that voters can set up independent redistricting commissions.
Innovation and inclusion were common themes of the three wonderful state League conventions that I attended this year. In each state, the conversations were about the League's celebrated past as prelude to the future of Making Democracy Work® for all Americans.
Like the Florida League, Leagues across the country are seeking solutions to the issue of redistricting and gerrymandered Congressional districts.
Read a guest blog post by the League of Women Voters of California on their advocacy campaign that resulted in a big win for campaign disclosure.

|Ambulance Involved in Avery Wreck
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 07 July 2011 06:00
An Avery County ambulance was involved in an injury accident last night responding to a call on the back side of Beech Mountain. The ambulance was on Dark Ridge Road when the collision occurred, on its way to a call further out, but because of the damage to the unit—and that there were injuries in the accident—the vehicles could not be moved,
blocking the road for the second ambulance, now answering the original med call. First responders had to use a stretcher and truck to get the original patient around the wreck site to the second ambulance. Injuries in the crash were not serious, according to personnel at the scene, but it took some time for the state patrol, on another call, to arrive to investigate.

DERBY - Vicky Farrand-Lewis is seeking a three-year seat on the Derby Select Board, a position that has opened up after long-time member Karen Jenne decided to run for the town clerk and treasurer position instead.
Lewis began attending more town meetings and speaking up when the town was discussing the proposal to erect industrial sized turbines on Derby Line farms. Lewis supports a moratorium on future wind developments because she feels more research is needed on their effects on surrounding areas.
NEWPORT CITY – This year's Winter Carnival was all about fireworks and ice.
The Newport Recreation Department sponsored the event that took place in Gardner Park Saturday.
The day started with three teams battling to the finish in the Orleans County Citizen Advocacy Winter Golf Challenge. The team SSMC, which consisted of a foursome from Haverhill, N.H. came in first place. Rusty's Electric came in second place and the team from Passumpsic Savings Bank came in third place.
For more about the carnival, see Monday's edition of the Newport Daily Express for Feb. 4, 2013.
NEWPORT–After going almost two long months since their last win, the North Country boys basketball team rallied from an eleven point first quarter deficit to defeat the Colchester Lakers 57-52 on Thursday evening.
"This feels great and it has been a long time coming," said NCU coach Brian Bonvechio. "We played these guys to a two point game at Colchester and we thought that we could play with them tonight and we did. We played tough defense and got some great performances out of these young men."
ORLEANS-Strong defense leads to good offense, and with a smothering press combined with some lights out shooting, the Lake Region boys ran all over the Stowe Raiders en-route to a season-high 93-38 win on Friday night.
"It was an all-around great effort out there, one through eleven. We were missing Clint, but everyone played well," said LRU coach James Ingalls. "We just wanted to work out the kinks on defense, as last few games we have been letting up the last few minutes, but they brought the intensity for 32 minutes tonight."
No. Country 3, Middlebury 1
MIDDLEBURY–Trailing 1-0 after one period, the Falcons were able to rally behind two goals from Crystal Moss to earn a big road win over a much improved Tiger team.
"The girls are starting to learn how to bounce back after a tough first period," said NCU coach Claude Paul. "Overall we had a good second and third, really taking over the game in the final period."
Heading into the second down 1-0, Emily Doty hooked up with Moss for the first North Country goal of the game.
The Lake Region boys basketball team defeated Stowe 93-38 while the North Country girls hockey team rallied to win 3-0 against Middlebury. The UCA boys defeated Canaan 61-21 to get a needed bounce-back win. Full details in Monday's Express on 2-4-13.

Democrats listen to speakers at their convention in the Events Center while Republicans cast their electronic ballots at the Rio Theatre.
Carbon County Democrats will need a primary race to decide their nominee for the open county commission seat, while Republicans chose their candidate by a wide margin Friday night at their convention.
GOP hopeful Casey Hopes garnered more the 60 percent of the delegate votes in balloting at the Rio Theatre.
The tally at the Democratic convention at the Fairgrounds Event Center showed Dave Smith and Mike Johnson finished first and second in the four-way race that included Price Mayor Joe Piccolo and Kyle Edwards. Since neither Smith nor Johnson got the required 70 percent, they will face each other in the primaries June 26.
While the Republicans were conducting their electronic balloting, they heard short speeches from GOP candidates for statewide office. They included Gov. Gary Herbert, Rep. Jason Chaffetz, State Sen. David Hinkins, Jerry Anderson for Utah House of Representatives, John Dougall for Utah Auditor, and Mike Stansfield for State Senate.
Democrats heard from incumbent District 69 State Rep. Christine Watkins and her challenger Stanley Larson. Also taking the microphone were Scott Howell and Pete Ashdown, both of whom are running for a chance to oppose U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch. Other candidates speaking included Dee Smith for Attorney General, Christopher Stout for State Treasurer, and Richard Clark and Soren Simonsen, who are running for the Third Congressional seat now held by Jason Chaffetz.

FORT DRUM The production of maple syrup on post forestland is being used to teach soldiers and their families about Northern New York and its assets.
Many who have come here from outside the region find the taste of fresh maple syrup much different from the store products theyve purchased elsewhere.
People are amazed, said Rodger H. Voss, a forester with the forest management program, part of Fort Drums Department of Public Works. They try it and theyre like, Wow, this isnt Aunt Jemima ... this is different.
Mr. Voss believes the post is the only installation in the country to have such a maple syrup-producing operation.
Begun in 2006, the operation pays for itself through syrup sales at the posts gift shop along with money generated by other regular forestry activities such as logging, avoiding the need for taxpayer money.
In the woods near the posts headquarters on 10th Mountain Division Drive, sap from hundreds of sugar maple trees runs to a single collection tank through a long, intricate series of clear plastic tubes. After being collected, the sap is turned into syrup at a forestry building on the posts south side.
The vacuum pump system, similar to ones used by syrup producers around the region, was installed last year, replacing the buckets placed at each tap that required many more man-hours to maintain. The system will be usable for about 15 years before it will have to be changed.
Mr. Voss and Michael R. Stiefel, a civilian forestry employee whose salary is generated by post forestry work revenues, said when they were youths they collected small amounts of sap to make syrup.
Its a different level, thats for sure, Mr. Stiefel said.
With the watery sap consisting of about 2.5 percent sugar, it takes the evaporation of about 42 gallons to create a single gallon of syrup at 66 percent sugar.
Mr. Voss said the post produces about 200 gallons of syrup per season, with much of it distributed as free samples during educational events. The approximately $6,000 in annual syrup sales covers the cost of buying supplies such as new filters and repairs.
Mr. Voss said the main syrup-producing season runs from the end of February until mid-April.
Since drawing about 25 people during its first Maple Days event, the post has experienced a steady increase in interest each year. Mr. Voss said last years event attracted about 950 visitors.
The post will hold its 2013 Maple Days event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. March 16 and 23 at 45th Infantry Drive. In addition to learning about production and receiving syrup samples, visitors can buy bottles of syrup and gather information about other area syrup producers.
Those with questions about the event can call the posts Forest Management Program at 772-3170 or 772-6767.

I'm really lazy. Most of the time I just prop my camera on the stairs and take a picture, but this is getting to be a huge pain. Tripod, here I come! In any case, this outfit is a lot of things I love. You can't see it, which makes this post stupid, but I got the shirt at Anthropologie three years ago. I remember, because I bought it almost three years ago and have struggled with it ever since. I love it, and I loved it when I saw it--it also came in this gorgeous dusty-blue--and it was full price at 68$. Then, almost six months later, we went back to NYC and there it was! In the same store, sitting there, the last one in my size, waiting. Oh, a moment of bliss! It was also twenty dollars then. It's short in the waist though, so it's always been a bit of a problem. Latley, I've been trying very hard to find a way to wear it that I like, and I believe I've found it. It's a lot of stress over a lacey little t-shirt!
(I liked this sort of accidental shot because I think it's one of those weird pictures where you know exactly what I looked like when I was four.)
Also, I made a thing! Ages ago Emily at Some Girls Wander (and Inside a Black Apple, but I honestly frequent the former for inspiration more often just a bit, so there you go :P) made a post about things to do with vintage doilies and lace. I have a lot of these. I can't leave them behind at thrift stores and estate sales--I need to love them! And while it's really nice to have them filling bowls and things, her post on turning them into a scarf might have been the most genius thing in the universe. So I copied it. I had been meaning to for ages but never got around to it until last night. Eventually I'll add to it, but for now it's a nice little thing to whip up at 1am :D
(I <3 my bee)
Thanks Emily :)!

I have an old laser printer (@1996) that isn't supported on anything past Windows ME (which is why I tri-boot 98SE, XP Pro, and Mandrake v9). Is there a way to print with this printer if it is not natively supported in Linux, either using stuff from the Windows driver file, or ...? I would hate to have to keep Windows just to print. Thanks.
