The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is sketching out a regulatory blueprint designed to control pollution levels from coal-fired power plants, and lying under the torrent of new regulations will be mercury, smog, water intake, coal ash, and greenhouse gases.
Over the next 18 months, the EPA will put forth efforts to curb mercury emissions, place limits on smog-forming compounds like sulfur-dioxide, enact new rules for coal-ash waste, and implement new standards to contain greenhouse-gas emissions from oil refineries and power plants. "This year is going to be critical for paving a pathway for reducing carbon-dioxide pollution because of those EPA rules," suggested Daniel Weiss of the Center for American Progress. "Assuming, that is, they're not stopped."
Industry leaders and congressional members note that the EPA's new regulations will mount a heavy toll on the coal industry, because they will force coal-fired power plants to install costly new renovations — or, in many cases, shut down altogether.

Happy birthday Justin Bieber!
The "Boyfriend" singer turns 19 years old today. It seems like just yesterday he had that infamous haircut, and it's hard to forget he's not a "baby" anymore.
We dug deep into all the "selfies" on Justin's Instagram and picked out the sexiest ones to remind us he's all grown up.
From shirtless pictures showing off his toned six-pack and biceps, close ups of his incredibly defined jawline (and those lips...), and candids of the family man, it's hard to not swoon over the hot...single...singer.
With over 7 million followers on Instagram, Justin sure knows how to tease his fans while still leaving a little to the imagination. Click the "Launch Gallery" above to see 19 of Justin's sexiest pictures!

(1) Court order
The victim of an offense of the type referred to in subsection (a) [1] of this section may obtain an order in the district court of the United States for the district in which charges are brought against the defendant charged with the offense, after notice to the defendant and an opportunity to be heard, requiring that the defendant be tested for the presence of the etiologic agent for acquired immune deficiency syndrome, and that the results of the test be communicated to the victim and the defendant. Any test result of the defendant given to the victim or the defendant must be accompanied by appropriate counseling.

(B) the test for the etiologic agent for acquired immune deficiency syndrome is requested by the victim after appropriate counseling; and
(C) the test would provide information necessary for the health of the victim of the alleged offense and the court determines that the alleged conduct of the defendant created a risk of transmission, as determined by the Centers for Disease Control, of the etiologic agent for acquired immune deficiency syndrome to the victim.
(3) Follow-up testing
The court may order follow-up tests and counseling under paragraph (1) if the initial test was negative. Such follow-up tests and counseling shall be performed at the request of the victim on dates that occur six months and twelve months following the initial test.

Any such individual to whom the test results are disclosed by the victim shall maintain the confidentiality of such information.

New Oklahoma State offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich hasn't tweaked much of the Cowboys' Air Raid spread system.
But he has increased the tempo.
New Oklahoma State offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich hasn't tweaked much of the Cowboys' Air Raid spread system.
But he has increased the tempo.
That's almost difficult to fathom, as the Cowboys were already attacking opposing defenses with their no-huddle, quick pace. But coach Mike Gundy said he isn't surprised the Cowboys are going even faster this spring.
"When I studied potential coordinator candidates on tape and I watched Shippensburg on video," Gundy said, "I noticed the majority of the time they got a first down, the ball was snapped before the chains were set.
"Now, I don't know what kind of chain gangs they have in that league — not to knock that league — but I know they must have been moving pretty fast for that to happen. I would say the speed of our offense has increased this spring."
OSU ran an average of 78 offensive plays per game last season, which helped the Cowboys rack up 547 total yards per game (fourth in the nation) and 45.69 points per game (third in the nation).
Defensive end is arguably Oklahoma State's biggest position battle this spring, with the Cowboys needing to replace three key contributors in Ryan Robinson, Cooper Bassett and Nigel Nicholas.
New defensive line coach Joe Bob Clements gave his assessment of the group Wednesday, revealing that senior Tyler Johnson and sophomores Trace Clark and Jimmy Bean are ahead of the rest of the pack right now.
Behind them, Clements said, are junior college transfer Sam Wren and redshirt freshman Emmanuel Ogbah.
"I think I have a strong group of guys to work with," Clements said. "It's just a matter of sorting out which ones are the best."

Tuesday, May 11, 2010The Lipscomb Lady Bisons domination of the Atlantic Sun Conference continues.
Sophomore pitcher Whitney Kiihnl was named conference Player of the Year and was the unanimous choice as conference Pitcher of the Year by a vote of A-Sun coaches and sports information directors.
Lady Bisons coach Kristin Ryman, who has guided the Lady Bisons to the A-Sun regular season championship, was named A-Sun Coach of the Year. She also won the award in 2008 when the Lady Bisons tied for the regular season title.
Kiihnl has a 28 wins overall and is 11-0 in A-Sun games. She has five shutouts, including a perfect game against Austin Peay Feb. 26.
She was a five-time A-Sun Pitcher of the Week this season.
"I am so happy for Whitney," Ryman said. "She has put together an unbelievable year both in the circle and at the plate. I couldn't be more proud of her.
"With as many good players as we have, she still stands out. I think she is very deserving of both awards, and I think it is cool that the coaches in the A-Sun think the same way. Whitney is truly one of the most well-respected players in our league. I think the most exciting thing for us is that we get her for two more years."
She has been the leader nationally in NCAA Division I in earned run average for most of the season with a .71.
Kiihnl also doubled as a designated player this season, batting .361, fourth highest overall in the A-Sun.
"She has done it all for us this year," Ryman said. "She is obviously a huge reason why we have started to get some national attention.
"For her to go from not even hitting in our lineup to being one of the top hitters is impressive. She is a phenomenal athlete and has worked extremely hard."
Six Lady Bisons were named to the All A-Sun First Team. Kiihnl was selected as a pitcher.
Sophomore catcher Mollie Mitchell was a unanimous choice. She has caught every inning this season. Mitchell was also a unanimous choice last season for the A-Sun All-Freshman Team.
Mitchell has twice been A-Sun Player of the Week this season.
Senior first baseman Kellie Sirus, senior second baseman Abby Keese and sophomore shortstop Courtney Billington joined center fielder Lauren Dortwegt on the first team.
Sirus leads the conference in slugging percentage (,699), runs scored (47) and runs batted in (41). Keese leads the conference overall in home runs (13) and total bases (105).
Dortwegt is second in hitting in A-Sun games only with a .411 average. Billington is first in batting in a-A-Sun games only with a .438 average and second overall with a .365 average.
"Whitney, Mollie and Courtney were all starters last year," Ryman said. "But they have shown more confidence and developed into even bigger threats this year due to experience."
Last season Sirus was named All A-Sun First Team with five Lady Bisons named to the second team.
"Abby and Lauren have each won Second Team honors twice before," Ryman said. "But they have shown more leadership and consistency this year.
"Kellie has had some impressive years as well. Her experience in the big games showed this year."
When talking about the success of the team this season Ryman also talks about the maturity of her players.
"I think our seniors have done an outstanding job this year of leading our team," Ryman said. "But our sophomore class has stood out as well. It has given our team tremendous balance.
"Having so many players named First Team All-Conference is simply a testament to their hard work. They push each other to get better every day. I think is it also a reflection of their experience."
The Lady Bisons, 44-10 overall, flew to DeLand, Fla., Tuesday afternoon for the A-Sun Tournament at Stetson University. Teams will practice Wednesday at Stetson. Ryman and her players will also receive their awards at practice.
Thursday morning the Lady Bisons will face No. 6-seed Campbell in the first round. Campbell has won the conference tournament the past two seasons. This will be the first time the Lady Bisons, who have qualified for the tournament the past four seasons and five of the last six, have faced Campbell in postseason play.
"I don't think it is often that a team has six players named to the All-Conference First Team," Ryman said. "But his is truly a special team.
"I am excited for the six of them. But I am even more excited about what this team is still capable of doing."

Video: UB Professor Arrested at Pro-Life Event
BUFFALO, NY - Laura Curry is an adjunct media studies instructor at UB and can seen swearing in a You Tube video. Campus police arrested and charged her with disorderly conduct Monday.
The Genocide Awareness Project was invited on campus by the UB Students for Life organization. G.A.P. is a traveling photo-mural exhibit that compares contemporary genocide of abortion to historical forms of genocide.
In the You Tube video Curry is heard swearing. A University police official tells 2 On Your Side she was not arrested because of swearing, although she was told to stop several times, but police say she was loud and causing a public annoyance.
In her defense, Curry tells 2 On Your Side that she wants to explain her side of the story, but says her attorneys don't think she should talk about her arrest. So, Curry recommended we talk to a colleague of hers who was with her at the time.
Cayden Mak is an adjunct instructor in the same department that Curry is in.
"That's not the Laura I know. She's not unhinged. She's an incredibly brilliant scholar, incredibly brilliant artist and I don't think those characterizations are fair," said Mak, "I think it's very difficult to not have an emotional reaction to a display like this."
Mak says the graphic content that was shown may have gotten the best of Curry.
"I don't think that 'f bombs' are necessarily this kind of profanity college students can't deal with. I don't she instigated, I think saying she instigated implies she went down there looking for a fight," Mak added.
The group says it knows the images are not pleasant and that they try to educate people and treat them with respect.
In a statement, The University at Buffalo said they "strive to create an environment in which diverse opinions can be expressed and heard. As a public university, it is a fundamental value of UB that all members of the campus community and their invited guests have a right to peacefully express their views and opinions, regardless of whether others may disagree with those expressions."
Curry is still an employee at UB and has a court hearing later this month in Amherst Town Court.

Last nights stream was pretty fun. I ended up getting the attention of most of the active Twitch staff of the time, which in turn were friendly enough to officially back me on Twitter. I also met a few popular streamers who came in to greet me, such as EatMyDiction1. I look forward to streaming later today!
Also looks like we may get some information on founders packs or possibly something else this week for the rest of us sitting on the sidelines.
Hey there! Alpha is currently invite-only but we're adding new ways to get in this week. Keep eyes on @ArcheAge for details!
Starting ArcheAge NA alpha stream soon enough with BikeMan.

|Anderson trial continues
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Wednesday, 16 May 2007 05:37
Jury selection continues today in what might be Caldwell County's most publicized murder trial.Several motions have been presented so far in the first-degree murder trial of Jerry Anderson. Granted motions include requiring prosecutors to provide a list of the aggravating factors. A motion by the defense to dismiss the charges due to lack of jurisdiction was not granted. Lawyers for the defense argued the charges should be dropped because there is not any evidence that supports the victim being killed in North Carolina. In fact, lawyers went on to say a witness claims to have seen the victim alive in South Carolina, a place where they say there is no evidence to link Jerry Anderson. The victim's truck was found in South Carolina, her body in the trunk. Emily Anderson, Jerry's wife, was reported missing December 29, 2005 by the suspect. Her truck was discovered January 7, 2006. Caldwell County detectives believe Anderson was shot December 29, 2005, at the Sawmills dairy farm Jerry Anderson owned and operated at the time of her death.

Blackjack Gigantamo Grow Dry Fertilizer. 3/4 lb. Perfect fertilizer for the grow stage of plant life.Blackjack Soil has developed its version of the perfect slow release fertilizer for vegetative through bloom plant growth. It can be added to any brand of manufactured soil or placed into the garden for truly great plant growth. By blending 1½ cups of this product into 1 cubic foot of any brand of soil, plants will be fed for up to 4 months. Only watering is required although light natural teas, water conditioners and plant sprays may be used to enhance plant growth without affecting the fertilizer program. Also, this product may be added to the soil of established plants at the rate of 1½ tablespoon per gallon of soil. After many months of Beta testing, gardeners have commented that the plant growth from the Blackjack fertilizer is equal to or at times greater than that of plants grown in hydroponics with a lot less effort. Blackjack enriched soil for all intents and purposes should be considered organic although Blackjack prefers the word natural. Consult the Blackjack Soil Program booklet for other creative applications. Plants respond to this product in a very positive manner. It may be used with all brands of soil. Look for growth similar to growth in hydroponics. * This booklet may be downloaded free of charge from the website www.blackjacksoil.com. * For gardeners who are sensitive to residual chemicals found in hydroponicly grown plants, Blackjack is the perfect alternative to obtain a pure natural growth relatively free of toxic allergens. * Gardeners with a disease such as Cancer can be extremely sensitive to chemicals as their senses are heightened by the toxic nature of the ailment and their immune system working overtime in defense of the disease.* Organic soil should be used in conjunction with Blackjack for optimal results and low residual of toxic allergens.

pilots declaring an emergency because an electrical malfunction on an 'electric' plane; that is more than just something, that should worry people....
I was on an A319 January 2011 from Chicago to PDX and we had to land in Omaha due to electrical and hydraulic issues. Another A319 picked us up and flew us on to PDX. We were on the ground long enough for me to get down 3 double Makers on the rocks. Neither the mechanical issue or my consumption of bourbon made the news.
I hope since you were at OMA you had time for a great steak to wash down with the fine bourbon...
Dang, I'd thought that bourbon would have done the trick for sure Jack.lol
At least it was GOOD bourbon. 3 double Maker's in an airport bar'll set you back almost as much as pax fare!
Hopefully while he was on the ground and delayed the Airline was picking up the tab.lol
John Ostrower of the Wall Street Journal is reporting via Twitter: "Diverted United 787 radioed fire crews at MSY to look signs of damage to the aircraft near the jet's aft electrical equipment bay" and "The 787's aft electrical bay is home to the jet's electrical power distribution, guiding power from its engines & APU." and "In Nov. 2010, Boeing suffered an in-flight fire in the same electrical bay while on approach to Laredo, Tx, during a test flight."
There was no fire or indication there of on the exterior of the plane. We won't know for sure why they declared an emergency until the NTSB report. This plane was delivered earlier in the week and put right into to service without any test flights by United.
Something failed or indicated a failure on the flight deck. This is a new aircraft with inexperienced crews. The proper thing to do is not to second guess the computers you put the plane on the ground and let maintenance take a look. I believe this is what the crews did and what United has done. According to flight tracker the plane is still at MSY.
As new and high profile as this thing is, We'll hear all about in the next while or they'll sweep it under the rug hoping nothing else will be said.
The increased use of lead-free electronics raises question if pure tin whiskers are creating these problems. The symptoms match.
Listen to tower conversation on ATC Live. Pilots concerned with what seemed to be an electrical issue in the baggage area behind the wing root. Asked Fire Rescue to inspect the aircraft just behind the wing in the area of the fuselage where there is primarily electrical connections.
Later the FAA posted a immediate airworthiness directive to inspect and repair a fuel line connection in the engine Nacelle that may have not been connect properly at the factory. Do not know if the two are connected.
Can't comment on this due to lack of information about the problem.
Reportedly due to a failure of one of the aircraft's six generators: http://seattletimes.com/html/businesstechnology/2019839876_united787diversionxml.html
nice , but you where on the ground .
This could be real simple issue and maybe nothing that is safety related. In Canada yesterday had a diversion because the FMS failed in flight. The Canadian Controls diverted him. He Diverted 20 minutes off course, and was only 30 minutes from his destination.
This issue could be as simple as an indication and the crew played it safe to have things checked out... Even though they are fully trained, there is always something new... Especially in a new plane. This article in my opinion is to vague and doesn't say nothing meaningful. They just want to publish meaningless dirt.
I'm going for the playing it safe, based on the post below and the tweet
Why were they flying a 787 to take 174 passengers on a domestic flight?
There are more airports between LA and New York than there are between New York and London... Just in case problems arise.
Marketing..treat the folks to the new jet w/ all the bells and whistles that UA can offer.....my guess
As stated before, they are keeping it in the US until all the crews are fully trained. This is probably Ground Crews as well as Flight Crews... In this case, may have been a good thing.
As per other posts here, they said they were keeping them domestcic for awhile for training and all.
With all the people that are out of work they can't afford it, they hitch hike.
The 787 is operating on hub-hub routes for crew training/familiarity before being put on international routes.
Because they CAN
It'll be a great bird once they get all of the bugs worked out.
They said somewhere that Nippon and some of the rest had had minor problems. The only reason we heard about this on is because it's high profile and they are the first domestic carrier. Besides the training, I am sure this is another reason to keep it home for awhile. This ain't United's first rodeo with a new plane.
Tell you what W the Japanese engineers are the best on the planet. The Lufthansa crew are good but at times they have to fight like hell with MBAs for the odd penny here and there. The big problem is the damned paper work in Japanese.
stuff happens. Saw a brand new car the other day, about 2 hours off the lot, coming back to the dealership on a rollback.
We had a brand new Rig that the transmission just fell out of....the joys of new stuff...lol
LOL Happens all the time...
Yes preacher but did it fall 30,000 feet on to that truck?
Growing pains for a fabulous bird. No worries
yup. i'll take a warning light in the cockpit over an exploding engine anyday.
There was a near catastrophy early on with an A380 when an engine came apart in mid-flight and seriously damaged the plane itself. And later they found a substantial issue with improper materials selected for the wing structure that had to be corrected on aircraft in service as well as new builds. End result was that passengers paid no attention and 380s still sold prety well.
These 787 issues seem like small problems in comparison.
I haven't
read anything that said what the exact problem was, do you know??
Below here there is a link from Bill Harris. I think I read that link and it says something about one of the generators; supposedly minor but somebody said it was still on the ground at MSY so I dunno.
You into "bluegrass" music W?
Personally, No.
In the meantime, I'll enjoy the ANA 787 as it flies over my home on it's approach to KSEA around 9am. I picked up this morning's flight as she was off the BC coast at 390 flying a little over 560. She's a beauty.
Love this story and site.
youth sins.
Well , now comes the news of the faulty fuel lines, so how long are we going to survive on optimism and not look at it as a potential problem on hand , which needs good, qualified attention.
Trust the "growing pains" do not turn into endless nightmares !!
Where did you hear Fault Fuel Lines?
I saw it too. It wasn't on here but a separate post somewhere. Boeing or a customer had found it; said IMPROPER INSTALLATION, and had been corrected; ANA and some of the others had already found/fixed it. Only 1/2 dozen or so planes and they were identified.
No harm No foul everybody lives to fight another day
Seems like this sort of thing always happens with new airliners. It takes a lot to make flight of any machine a reality. As far as PR goes, I wonder if the passengers where doused in the new airliner fanfare. It doesn't make well to brag about a new product if an emergency landing takes place, regardless of the reason. It isn't the first 787 emergency and it won't be the last, and the same goes for every other aircraft out there that had it's up's and down's early on.
You know that and we all know that but as you say, try explaining it to a pax. I lost an engine on t/o once on a 757 after the bird had been in the hangar for a week getting a good going over. Something totally simple and that actually had been looked over while down but it failed under power. Stuff will break. I really hope that they don't find anything serious on that generator. Of course, the 787, being the new kid on the block, is under the microscope and we will hear about every little ache and pain until something else comes along to take the limelight.
As a retired US Navy diesel-electric submarine Engineer Officer who took USS RAZORBACK (SS-394) through an extensive 5-month long shipyard overhaul, I can share this bit of acquired wisdom:
When we entered the shipyard for overhaul WE KNEW WHAT WAS WRONG with the boat (in RAZORBACK's case it was almost everything.)
When we completed the overhaul, WE WEREN'T SURE.
It turned out there wasn't much wrong. Thanks to our ship's company's knowledgeable, conscientious supervision we were able to find and have corrected some serious potential problems -- before we signed off on the shipyard's work. I probably wouldn't have been around to write this if we'd undocked without making a detailed inspection of the interior of every ballast tank.
The reason why you aren't sure when you leave is that with so much work being done by individuals who're skilled at their trade, but are nonetheless are human and fallible, mistakes get made. The shipyard workers can tell you in good faith a job has been completed properly -- and almost all are. But as President Reagan so wisely said: "TRUST, BUT VERIFY".
The same should be applicable to airplane maintenance.
To be honest, I didn't even read the article. The 787 had an in-flight fire (or "heat-up") whatever you want to call it, a motor shaft failure, and I don't even really care what this is all about. All these failures are well within(usually) the machine's safety factor and are typical of anything flying today. I'm not a pilot, but how do you deal with that passenger who gets so upset over these things without any knowledge of meteorology, structural mechanics, fluid dynamics, physiology, and aircraft financing? It takes a lot to make a plane fly, let alone get you there on time and even if it's 5 hours late, it sure beats driving. The press loves these incidents and so do the Airbus vs. Boeing people. For those of us who make it all happen, it's just another day.
The media loves drama.
it's going to end up being something small like an under lubercated slide and because of all the fuss, everyone is going to have less confidence in the aircraft, especially because it is a new aircraft. Also, why was that large plane flying a small route. I know that it was between two hubs, but i expecrted a transcontinental or trans atlantic routes from it.
Not so unusual, for example Delta flies 767's to JFK from Atlanta, that said United have stated their plans were to fly the 787 on domestic routes through the end of the year.
I think I recall reading somewhere that they were flying only domestic routes for training prior to using them on intl routes. But I could be thinking of some other aircraft/airline enirely.
You are correct.
Yes, I heard that, too. Right now ship 904 has a 3.5hr delay IAH-EWR and 902 still grounded. I'm scheduled on the 788 next Friday, paid a premium for that, so I would be extremely disappointed if there was a sub!
The news about snags in the new Dreamliner is coming a bit more than anticipated , of any new flying machine. It would be in the interest of the common traveller , if Boeing issues a public notification assuring them , that the plane is absolutely safe. I think it is their moral responsibility .
Reposte check before posting.
U want the check to be mailed again???
Problems with a new aircraft? Anyone remember the DC10? Probably only the ones still alive after riding in one.
787dreamline is good ,I like
What should be wrong with that dreamliner?
I dont kwow was goin on boeing supose to be the best and the 787 is give the a lot a trouble

United 787 makes emergency landing in New Orleans
A brand-new United Airlines "Dreamliner" bound for Newark, N.J., was diverted Tuesday morning, making an emergency landing in New Orleans because of a mechanical problem.
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner recently entered service in North America in a debut last month with United Airlines. United and Boeing are both based in Chicago.
United flight 1146 from Houston to Newark was diverted to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport and landed safely, the airline said. The flight carried 174 customers and 10 crew members.

I don't think that's a pic of a dreamliner.....
Wow I fubar'd that comment... For some reason I thought the 787 had winglets. Didn't see winglets in the pic....

Untied 787 Dreamliner makes emergency landing in New Orleans
A United Airlines Boeing 787 Dreamliner scheduled to fly from Houston Bush (IAH) to Newark International (EWR) this morning diverted for an emergency landing at New Orleans (MSY) due to an undisclosed technical problem.
United Flight 1146, with 174 passengers and 10 crew, landed without incident at New Orleans at 9:25 AM.
'As per standard procedure when an emergency is declared, fire trucks met the airplane as it landed.
The airline was putting passengers on a different aircraft to get them to Newark.
The cause was not immediately disclosed.
"United will work with Boeing to review the diversion and determine the cause," airline spokeswoman Christen David said in a statement.'
The plane is the newest of three Boeing 787s that have been delivered to United. This particular plane was delivered on November 20th.

The Annihilation of Lithuanian Jewry is an important account of the Holocaust by a thoughtful and devout survivor, one of the few rabbis to have written memoirs. This deeply affecting book reveals both the horrors and the tenacious spiritual life of the inhabitants of the Kovno Ghetto in Lithuania. Rabbi Oshry heartbreakingly chronicles pogroms, being driven into the ghetto, the "Black Day" when more than 10,000 Jews were murdered, martyrdom, and the slaughter of Jewish children. Rabbi Oshry recounts his terrifying experience hiding for thirty-eight days in an underground bunker until the Russians liberated Kovno. And yet, amid unimaginable destruction, the Jews of the Kovno ghetto managed to hold fast to their spiritual life. For three terrifying years--never knowing when death would arrive--they prayed, adhered to Jewish law as much as possible, and celebrated Shabbos and religious occasions with fervor. Thus, despite the sadness and the horrifying details of life in the Kovno ghetto, The Annihilation of Lithuanian Jewry is an inspiring narrative. Part II provides a meticulous record of the sad fate of town after town of Jewish Lithuania.
The book includes:

POTSDAM When the Town Council met with the public Tuesday to discuss the future of the troubled recreation program, everyone who spoke up at the meeting agreed they wanted to keep the recreation program alive somehow, but so far there are no clear answers on how to proceed.
Village trustees voted last week to cut financial support to the program at the end of 2013. The town and village have long shared the cost of the recreation program, and now town board members are looking for ways to keep it going.
The main difficulty lies with the village of Norwood. The village has its own recreation program and contracts with the town of Norfolk to provide some services it cannot provide itself, like use of an ice rink.
Town Supervisor Marie C. Regan said it would be unethical and possibly illegal to make Norwood residents pay for a program they dont use, but the way the budget is organized leaves the town with few other options.
This came as a surprise to me, said Norwood Mayor James H. McFadden.
He said he hopes the town will not tax Norwood for the cost of recreation, but no matter what happens Norwood residents will not see a tax increase.
Were not going to let the recreation issue raise taxes for the village of Norwood, he said.
Potsdam village resident Thomas L. French said he does not see why Norwood residents should be exempt from recreation taxes paid by other town residents.
Most of the people who live in the village of Norwood live in the town of Potsdam, he said.
Mrs. Regan said incorporating Norwoods recreation program into Potsdams would be difficult, especially for Norwood children who are used to practicing sports like hockey with their friends from Norwood-Norfolk Central School. Board member Rosemaria Rivezzi said it was a difficult situation, but she hoped an agreement could be reached with Norwood that would not jeopardize the townwide program.
Potsdam Recreation Director Timothy W. Carey said he was just as surprised by the decision as everyone else.
I can not imagine this community not having a program for kids, he said.
Mr. Carey has worked in the program for 25 years. He is one of three full-time employees. All recreation employees are paid by the village, and Mr. Carey said he doesnt know how things will work once the year ends and the village cuts support. Time is of the essence, he said, because schools and hockey clubs plan their use of Pine Street Arena months in advance. The Potsdam School District puts in more than 100 hours of ice time every season.
We really need to try to come to some kind of resolution where we know were going to have a full season next year, he said.
The town looked into the possibility of creating a special taxing district for recreation, but Mrs. Regan said she has been unable to find any precedent of it being done before. The state has been pressuring municipalities to streamline, not add additional layers of bureaucracy, and would probably not approve a new district, she said.
The town budget and the categories within it are dictated by the state. There is no ands ifs or buts about how its made up, she said.
Even if a new district is approved by the state, it would needed to be voted on in a town wide referendum.
Board members said they did not approve of the villages surprise vote, which was held without informing them.
Doing it this way sends the message that either the village board does not understand the complexity involved because of Norwood, or that the recreation program is of little value to the village board, Ms. Rivezzi said.
Ms. Rivezzi and Mrs. Regan both said that although the way the issue came up was frustrating, the program could probably be better run by a single entity.
When I read the resolution there was one thing I agreed with. Mr. Yurgartis said we could probably run the program better. I think hes probably right, Mrs. Regan said.
Now that a public meeting has been held, the town board will schedule a meeting with village trustees to figure out the full implications of the resolution.

The culture of men's suit in India was adopted from the west. Indian men prefer to wear suits on very special occasions like wedding, professional meeting, social gathering to name a few. Men's wedding suits enhances the complete image of a man. Cbazaar's men's collection offers an exquisite collection of fashionable and trendy designer Indian suits. Indian men prefer to get their suits stitched which is a time taking process. Cbazaar offers you to customize your favourite attire the way you want and its a must when buying men's wedding suit.
Long gone are the times, when Indian grooms would stick to ethnic and traditional Indian wear like sherwani, achkan, kurta pyjama or dhoti style sherwani for their wedding attire. The trend has undergone a sea change over the years. Though the traditional wear still dominates the Indian wedding scene, western men's suit has captured the imagination and taste of Indian men. More and more Indian men across the globe are now opting for designer men's suit as their wedding attire.
The wearing of suits originated as a style of dress in the 17th century. In the 19th century European men in particular sought a comfortable alternative to the standard bulky attire of the period, and thus the modern suit was born. A man's suit is comprised of a jacket and pair of pants created from a common piece of fabric. Some also have vests made of the same fabric or a waistcoat added to it. These two types of suits are referred to as two-piece and three-piece suits respectively. Often, suits are worn, as is traditional with a collared shirt and necktie. The variations in design, cut, and cloth, such as two- and three- piece, or single- and double- breasted, determine the social and work suitability of the garment.The common fabrics used to create mens suit are polyester, rayon, merino wool, silk, cotton seersucker, worsted wool, gabpardine, and linen.
A suit is no more just a formal wear for today's metro sexual man. It has emerged as a fashion statement and a well tailored suit is quintessentially the first requirement for a modern man's dream wardrobe. With the choices available today in designer men's suit, there are sleek stylish suits that very well cater to the likes of men who love casual clothing. Though suits can be worn with flat fronted, pleated or semi pleated trousers, flat fronted trousers are always more flattering no matter what your size and age.
In Indian clothing, still the suit is considered more of wedding attire than a casual or dinner wear. There are a lot of considerations that you need to make while buying a suit for the wedding. Apart from the style and cut, other considerations should the type of fabric and the color to go for. While deciding it is advisable to keep in mind the weather conditions that will be prevailing around wedding, the time of wedding (day/night) and the overall theme around which the wedding has been planned.
Men's suits are referred to as custom tailoring, ready-to-wear or made to measure. Custom men's suits sometimes require months of work to create and are made specifically to the customer's measurements. Ready-to-wear suiting is mass produced and available in department stores and boutiques. Made to measure suits involve the selection of fabric, buttons and style of the men's suit by the customer. These suits are constructed, prior to the initial fitting and then customized to the client's wishes. Online shopping has made buying the designer suit or the wedding suit, a delightful experience for today's men. These sites score over other mediums because of their range of choices, customizing efficiency and timely ability to create versatile suits to match each customers dream.
Men's suits can be accentuated with ties, braces, handkerchiefs (pocket squares), and ascots. For black-tie occasions, a tuxedo is a type of man's suit that is completed with a white or black bow tie. American, Italian and British suits all vary not only by choice of designer, but with their approach to construction and unique style elements. For the Indian wedding scene, designer men's suits and Indo western suits are the latest trends. Indo western suits blend the western cuts and styles with the unmatched Indian workmanship in a way that men's suit acquires a new level of glamour. This makes these suits appeal to all those who love to attain unmatched sophisticated charm without loosing their ethnic charisma.

Manhattan Murder Mystery
Suspense/Thriller, Comedy
There's a real murder and a real mystery in Woody Allen's Manhattan Murder Mystery, but these plot pegs are used mainly to allow Allen to explore modern urban relationships. Allen plays a N.Y.C. book editor, Larry Lipton, married to Carol (Diane Keaton, who replaced Mia Farrow at the last minute, for reasons well publicized at the time). Carol is a free spirit, ever willing to try new experiences, but Larry is a wet blanket. When it begins to look like a neighbor has killed his wife, Carol is eager to investigate the mystery, but Larry thinks her suspicions are nonsensical and doesn't want to leave his apartment. Undaunted, Carol finds another Nick Charles in the form of family friend Ted (Alan Alda), who joins the investigation, and feels attracted to Carol and isn't afraid to let her know. Meanwhile, a writer under Larry's aegis (Anjelica Huston), who feels romantically drawn to him, also decides to join in the fun. Slightly jealous of Carol in the face of her budding relationship with Ted, Larry reluctantly agrees to go along on her clue-hunting expedition -- and it is he who discovers the corpse, who as it turns out was killed after Carol started poking around the apartment building.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

This is probably the best coverup foundation makeup I have ever used. I have tried all the expensive brands and always come back to this one. My favorite shade is Shade 735.
I normally use an expensive foundation but wanted to try something cheaper. So I purchased True Match - Honey Beige - I was really surprised how smooth and creamy it is. The color I chose was perfect and it's not easy picking a perfect color foundation. The number 1 thing I liked most was you could actually open the bottle and sample the color. Most brands are sealed shut and that is why I won't buy other brands. I was not dissapointed at all. I am not going back to my normal $40 foundation. Thank you True Match for a pleasant experience.

LOCKOUT — It's the 'Best Day' Yet, But Is It Good Enough?
A small group of owners and players met yesterday without the watchful eyes of their
lawyers representatives Gary Bettman, Bill Daly, and the Fehrs. It was another league strategy — the idea proposed by Bettman — that seemed to be just another tactic as well as a pretty make-or-break day in the lockout, since we're getting ever closer to the point where the season is completely gone. It was a supposed make-or-break day in a fall that seems to have been full of them.
From what is being written, it seems that the player-owners only meeting may have been a good thing. It had the representatives of both sides calling it the 'best day' they've had so far:
Fehr and Daly didn't say much, other than "this might be the best day we've had" in CBA negotiations and that there's "still a lot to be done." Nor did they take questions from the approximately 1 billion media members who had sat in the Westin Times Square lobby for the entire day. But that might be a good thing. Tight-lipped, as we've learned in this process over the last few months, is certainly better than rhetoric and posturing.
The interesting thing about a face-to-face meeting is that all of a sudden the interpreters — uh, I mean, Bettman, Daly, and the Fehrs — wouldn't be around. That would probably draw much stronger emotion, positive or negative, from the meeting's participants. Think about when you deal with an important bosses' secretary. If that secretary isn't the nicest person and sticks solely to the directives from their boss, things that normally might have gotten done between you and your boss start to stagnate. Then there's the part where the secretary might not be so enjoyable to work with, even though your boss may be just the opposite. At some point, it's easier to work face-to-face than through a mediator. Maybe that's what happened in the players-owners meeting the other day.
The owners could have taken a hard line and risked angering the players more, probably losing the season in the process. Or they could have played sad pandas to Bettman's ice cold robot, and worked things out. It seems, we might have gotten the later. But it's hard to tell, with the media (this blogger included) spinning in circles for months and over-analyzing every single event.
Following the meeting, the news coming out of it is good but everyone's hedging their bets. Darren Dreger makes sure to cover all of the bases:
Owners and players will weave discussions around the NHL's Board mtng. Could go late again. If so, can a deal be more than a few days away?
— Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger) December 5, 2012
I'm still a tad skeptical even though all involved yest carefully characterize the day as a very good day. Need more good days to close.
— Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger) December 5, 2012
But maybe we're actually getting somewhere. The two sides met again this morning at 9am and there's a Board of Governors meeting scheduled for 11am with a press conference afterwards. Bettman's cancelled that press conference, a sign that good news is coming? Maybe. If so, it's about damned time. But sort of like the Isles and the move to Barclays, no one will know for sure until they want us to.
(UPDATE: Well, the press conference is on and Sportsnet has a huge crazy banner for it.)
