The Veteran Advisory Council (VAC) on Mental Health at the Salt Lake City VA Medical Center would like to encourage any Veteran experiencing nightmares, flashbacks, hyper-vigilance, or other symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) to seek services at your nearest VA health care facility.Â
Many Veterans continue to suffer from PTSD needlessly. Some Veterans have looked for relief in the past, but have not found the help they needed; others continue to try to simply "Live with it." Help is available at your nearest VA facility. If you've participated in PTSD programs in the past without success, consider trying it again.  Some things have changed at the VA. New and better evidence based therapies (EBT) which go beyond the "Coping skills" of a few years back have been developed. There are new medications that can help relieve many of the symptoms of PTSD. You, your family, and your friends need not suffer from the affects of PTSD; life can get better.
So how does one get involved in treatment? Several options are available depending on the Veteran's location. Services are available throughout Salt Lake "Catchment area" in addition to the Salt Lake VA Medical Center. Services are also available at Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOCs) located in Pocatello, Idaho; Elko, Nevada;Â Ogden, Vernal, Price, Orem, and St. George, Utah. There are also stationary and mobile Vet Centers that provide counseling services. The VA's Tele-Health system reaches deep into our rural areas providing specialized one-on-one services where it is needed.
Our recommendation for those who can get to the VA Medical Center (VAMC) in Salt Lake City, is to attend a PTSD intake/assessment session. An open intake is held every Tuesday at 11:00 AM in Building #16 (the new Outpatient Mental Health facility). Ask a clerk for directions as you enter the building. The intake activity is held in the Deer Creek classroom on the main floor.
At the PTSD intake, you will complete several questionnaires and then be individually interview by a PTSD clinician. The clinician will provide treatment recommendations at the conclusion of the interview. Please allow 2-3 hours for the intake clinic, depending on the number of veterans attending. Please bring a copy of your DD214, if it is available.
Veterans experiencing any type of mental health crisis can receive help at the Building #16 Outpatient Mental Health location during regular business hours. Just walk-in and ask for help, or go to the VA Emergency Department in Building #1 anytime.
Peer Counselors are located in an office near the clerk's desk in Building #16. Peer Counselors (Veterans who have experienced their own recovery) are available to discuss various paths to recovery and provide resources often needed by Veterans experiencing mental health issues. Feel free to give them a visit, or they can be contacted by calling (801)582-1565 extension 2784.
Who are we? The Veterans Advisory Council (VAC) is a freestanding, all volunteer organization. VA Central Office encourages each VA medical center- mental health department, to promote the development of a consumer council such as our VAC. The VAC is invited to participate in the Mental Health Executive Council and present information or ask questions on behalf of Veterans.
Walt Moore is the Chairman of the VAC Council; he can be contacted at the Mental Health Peer Support office in Building #16 (801) 582-1565 ext 2784. Dr. Bob Banz serves as staff liaison to the VAC; he can be contacted at (801) 582-1565 ext 2729.

Springville, N Y - At first glance it looks like another one of the stately homes along Springville's Main Street. But as the signs outside indicate, tucked inside onebuilding is the legacy of one of the greatest college football coaches ever. And at this museum named for Glenn "Pop" Warner you can find out more about the Springville native and his 43 year coaching career at universities such as Georgia, Stanford, Iowa State, Cornell, Pittsburgh, and Temple. From 1895 to 1938, he had a record of 319 wins and wonfour national championships. And of course there is the football little league named for him. The Pop Warner Little Scholars program was where kids could play sports like football if they got good grades.
Museum trustee Bob Whitehead says"The man helped make football what it is today.Not only did Pop have a fantastic record, but he also was an innovator in the sport of football. He was first to create the single wing formation, the double wing formation, the lateral pass, and all kinds of innovations with improving equipment. Things like knee pads, shoulder pads, and other things of this nature."
Concord Town Historian DavidBatterson adds "Warner was the one to come up with the jersey numbers...the numbers on the backs of all the football players, the spiral punt, the tackling dummy."
And of course there was a trick play or so. It was not just the bootleg where the quarterback tries to hide the ball from the defense. It was something more sneaky. "He sewed pockets in the jerseys and they would put the ball into the pocket and run with. Well that didn't last too long...the rule book came up with a no-no."
NowPop Warner is the star at the museum which his estate donated money for. Butyou can also find other displays and elements honoring local folks like Dr. Ralph Waite, a dentist who helped develop painless dentistry with the use of the cocaine based painkiller eventually called Novacain to pull teeth. There is also legendary lyricist Jack Yellin who wrote the words for numerous records and movies and songs like "Happy Days are Here Again." And George Schuster who helped develop early automobiles and the round the world race. And you can take in other exhibits of life in the early 1900's like household items and a lovingly restored general store known as the Concord Mercantile. But it's the people like Pop Warner who are a drawing card. Museum Curator Don Orton "These are national figures and we have to kind of remember that we have a very vivid past with a lot of residents of our town."

LAKE PLACID –– Voices and music filled the Olympic Center on Sunday during the north countrys largest Mass in more than 40 years.
More than 2,800 people crowded into the Olympic Center to participate in the Diocese of Ogdensburg Solemn Mass in celebration of the Year of Faith, over which Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, apostolic nuncio to the U.S., presided.
Archbishop Vigano, welcome to our beautiful Diocese of Ogdensburg, Bishop Terry R. LaValley said. Welcome to Gods country.
Archbishop Viganos Italian accent echoed through the arena as he led the crowd of nearly 3,000 people through the 2:30 p.m. Mass.
Jackie M. Kelly, conference center coordinator for the New York State Olympic Regional Development Authority, said the authority was expecting 2,000 people, but about 2,800 showed up.
She said ORDA wasnt planning to open up some of the bleacher seats in the balcony, but had to use them. It also gave up reserved seating for the Knights of Columbus and had to bring in more chairs.
We have people from all eight counties represented, she said. I think theres 16 or 17 buses, plus people from the Akwesasne Nation, so its reaching everywhere.
Ms. Kelly said the Diocese of Ogdensburg encompasses a quarter of the state geographically and consists of about 150,000 Catholics.
Sundays Mass, to which the entire diocese was invited, was to be the north countrys climax celebration of the Year of Faith.
I pray that this year has sharpened our senses for the supernatural, Bishop LaValley said.
The Rev. Bryan D. Stitt, Malone, is the vocations director of the diocese and was master of ceremonies during the Mass.
Its a reminder that the church is universal, he said. Its intergenerational. The beauty of all coming together as one is a sign of great hope.
Father Stitt said meeting Archbishop Vigano was an amazing experience for him.
His presence brings Pope Francis to us, he said. Its not just about 2013. Its about 2000 years of history and the great future.
Lonel Woods, a voice professor from Crane School of Music, Potsdam, was the director of the 300-member choir that sang throughout the Mass and stood out in the balcony with matching white shirts.
Getting this massive group of people together in the spirit of God is just great, he said. Theres nothing like it because you dont often have this opportunity.
Mr. Woods said the choir practiced separately in different locations across the state. Each location had two to four rehearsals.
Todays rehearsal was the first time we had all of the voices together, he said. I wasnt quite sure what to expect, but surprisingly, everybodys clearly practiced on their own. It clearly meant something to them, because everybodys here.
The newly established Joyful Youth Choir, made up of junior high and high school students from five local parishes, sang two songs as people were still trying to find seats.
The group of 17 singers and its director, Dennis O. Frisbie, church organist at Peru Community Church, started practicing in April, meeting once a week.
They were asked by the bishop himself to perform for this, Mr. Frisbie said. When he said theyre performing it gave me goose bumps and the kids were all pumped.
Catholics from all over Northern New York were able to participate in the Mass in different ways.
Harold A. Caldwell, St. Regis Mohawk Tribe member, was one of seven people asked to read an intercession during the Mass.
Its an honor to be here and especially to be asked to participate in the Mass, he said.
Frances A. Defazio, Canton, sang in the choir and said attending the Mass made her feel closer to God.
Ive had a rough year this past year, she said. I lost my husband in February and Im getting back to the church on a regular basis. So this is my way to give back and to give thanks.
Seminarian Matthew S. Conger, 21, Ogdensburg, who is studying for the priesthood at St. Charles Borromeo Seminary in Philadelphia, Pa., participated in the Mass and said the experience was one hell never forget.
To be able to serve with the whole community and the whole diocese is pretty awesome, he said.

|Deceased Inmate Identified by WCSO
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 16 October 2013 13:02
The Watauga Sheriff's Office has released the name of the inmate who suffered a medical emergency last week and died in spite of efforts by jail personnel, Watauga Medics, and hospital staff at Watauga Medical Center. Sheriff Len Hagaman identified Bobby Lee Ward, 41,
an inmate at the Watauga County Detention Center as the inmate who died from an apparent medical condition on October 14th. Ward was observed by jailers to be unresponsive, causing them to immediately administer CPR. He was transported by Watauga Medics to Watauga Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. The Sheriff I commended the detention facility staff for their excellent response and compliance with all applicable protocols, and said "Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Ward family at this difficult time."

text: With good spring runoff ahead, Carbon County Recreation is anticipating two good months of river running this year. Last Thursday - the only good weather day between snow storms - the outdoor recreation coordinator Bo Christensen guided a small group in kayaks and one canoe on an excursion down the San Rafael River. The paddlers put in at Fuller Bottom and spend a day in the sunshine, surrounded by the imposing cliffs of the Swell. The San Rafael is a good river run for small boat novices because it lacks the more challenging rapids and drops of larger streams. The next scheduled trip down the San Rafael is set for June 4. Before then, Carbon Rec has set an excursion down the Price River from Woodside to the Green River for May 10. Trips down the Green are set for May 7 and 21, June 4, July 2 and 16, and August 6. All the trips down all the rivers feature the stunning geology of Castle Country.

Need info on violet gobies/dragonfish
Posted 21 March 2011 - 08:33 AM
Posted 21 March 2011 - 09:02 PM
Looks like you will need 3 tsp per 1 gallon of water if not more. I am not familiar with them but they seem to enjoy worms and frozen foods. Good luck

I just want to jump in and say that I hope you aren't just using aquarium salt and that you're going to need far more than 3tsp per gallon. That's not what he needs. You're going to need marine salt and to get yourself a hygrometer so you can measure your salinity. They don't do well in freshwater longterm. You'll probably want to transfer him to a true brackish tank within the next month or so. He'll be a LOT happier.
Will aquarium salt be fine for a couple days until I can get to a place that will sell me marine salt? Also, anything else you can tell me? It's seeming like there isn't very much info on them at all and I really want to give each of my fish the home they deserve. Tomorrow I'm going to start the terrifying process of cleaning out the basement so I can move all my stuff(tanks included) down there(don't worry, the basement is VERY well heated!)and at that point I'm going to be building a tank that will hold my dragon fish and if the guppies and mollies and swordtails are supposed to be brackish/saltwater, it will house them too. Right now I'm kind of stressing about what each of them needs and where I can find solid info on each that will explain things to me in stupid terms, lol. I really only know anything about bettas at all. Everything else has me at a loss. Most of all Bunny.

Housing all these fish together in the same tank is going to be problematic.
First off, the pleco (do you know what kind he is, BTW?) is not going to appreciate brackish water, so if you're going to house the rest in a brackish setup you will have to find different housing for him. For a brackish setup, you will need to use marine salt like Saucy said, and you'll need a hydrometer to measure salinity. Make sure it is one that includes low range SG, since some hydrometers only include the higher ranges relevant to saltwater setups. The guppies and mollies will do great in brackish, but swordtails aren't often found in brackish waters in the wild and won't tolerate a salinity much higher than 1.005. Ideal range for the dragon goby is about 1.006-1.008. Personally I would house the swordtails separately, but if you wish to keep them all together I would stick with running the salinity a little on the low side, around 1.004-1.005, and acclimate everyone to the brackish environment slowly.

Hello all. I'm another person looking to join the National Guard and in my case, the Pennsylvania National Guard. I was just wondering when I could apply as I'm starting 11th grade on September 9th here in Philadelphia. I am a A-B student with a random C every now and then~ but at the same time I don't think College is a good choice for me. Looking forward to go straight into the transportation workforce. CSX seemed like my initial choice but I changed to SEPTA. What steps~ do I take? Thank you for any answers.

Re: When can I apply?
Talk to your parents to get their blessing since you need their permission at 17. After that, talk to a recruiter. If you don't want to go directly to college, what not consider Active Duty? I'm not sure what the prospects are for HS Grads in Philly, but you'll more than likely come out better starting off.
Re: When can I apply?
You must be at least 17 and a Junior in high school with your parents' signed permission to enlist. You must also be on track to graduate on time. Since you are currently a Junior you could potentially enlist this year and do the Split Option Program. The Split Option Program allows you to go to basic training the summer between your Junior and Senior year and then return for your Senior year of high school. After you graduate from high school you would then go to Advanced Individual Training (job training). Once you complete your initial training you will return home and serve one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer with your assigned unit, unless deployed. Your assigned unit is typically within 50 miles of your home. This will give you the ability to pursue a full time civilian career as you were describing in your initial post and also provide you with a supplemental income. If your plans don't work out you can always fall back on the fact the Army National Guard offers education benefits to give you the opportunity to pursue a higher education.
I highly recommend that you contact your local recruiter to discuss your options and invite your parents to come along. When parents are part of the process it makes them feel more involved and comfortable with the idea of their child joining.
If you would like more information on your eligibility and how to contact your local recruiter, please call 1-800-Go-Guard (1800-464-8273) and they would be happy to assist you.

Re: When can I apply?
Unfortunately you must be at least 17 years old. Since your 17th birthday is not until the summer between your Junior and Senior year, you would not meet the cut off to attend the summer basic training session. This would prevent you from being able to do the Split Option Program, unless you plan on going to college after high school. In your current scenario, you would not be able to ship to basic training until after your Senior year and then you would go to your job training directly after you complete basic.
Re: When can I apply?
Originally posted by JerTal View PostSally22, I will do that in the next few days,because my interest to join the National Guard is high. I appreciate your response and help,soon I will ask more questions,if needed,take care!
Please do not hijack other posters threads. Next time if you have a separate question, please create your own thread in the appropriate category.
Thank you.
Re: When can I apply?
Thank you all for clearing that up for me. I hoped that I could do this over next Summer so I wouldn't be in the house. That is all that interested me.
But if I do attempt to apply, is it a guaranteed no?Last edited by BashirTheTrainMaster; September 4th, 2013, 05:18 PM.
Re: When can I apply?
If you meet the eligibility requirements, score at least a 31 on the ASVAB, and pass your physical examination then you can sign your enlistment contract and swear in.
The first step in the process is to get in contact with your local recruiter when you are closer to turning 17, to discuss your eligibility and specific options.
Since you are not turning 17 until next July and would need to be home for the start of your Senior year in the Fall, basic training is 100% off the table for next summer.

CANTON - Once you become a champion you are a champion forever.
OFA junior Cody Allen-David realized that in a burst of unbridled enthusiasm, on Saturday, at the Section 10 Wrestling Championships-State Qualifier staged before a large crowd at Canton Central.
Shortly after deciding a back-and-forth Division II 160-pound finals with a pin over Marty Countryman with just 38 seconds remaining in the third period, David ran straight to the top row of the bleachers to share a huge Bear hug with his mother.
That was a great win for Cody. It was one of those matches we had today that could have gone either way, said OFA Coach Bill Mitchell who saw seven of his wrestlers earn a place at the top of podium and a trip to the New York State Championships at the Times Union Center in Albany on Feb. 23.
Cody, Brody Sheppard and Josh Wangler both won their first titles. Tanner LaPiene and Alex Cole won for the second time, Nate Sarkin for the third time and Andrew Cole won for the fourth time. We had a very good day.
A good day where the Devils, who also received the Sportsmanship Award from the Northern Conference officials board, placed second to Overall NAC Champion Gouverneur 189.5-181 in the Division II standings.
Massena placed 14 wrestlers in the Division I title round and outdistanced Canton 207-148 in the team standings.
Gouverneur led the way with nine champions and Massena saw eight wrestlers crowned.
The Wildcat and Raider contingents will both be led to Albany by five-time champions in Dillon Stowell and Isaiah Perry who both went over the 150 career win mark in their senior seasons.
Stowell has earned the top 113-pound seed in the Division II states and is looking to better three third places and one fourth.
I have a lot of confidence going in. I wrestle with Zach Ayen in practice and we get after it pretty hard. Having someone like that to wrestle with everyday really helps, said Stowell who is currently considering an opportunity to wrestle at SUNY Brockport next year.
Perry became the first five-time sectional champion in Massena history, placed fifth in the states last year and will wrestle at Worcester Polynetic Institute next year at Worcester, Mass. where he will study Aeronautics through a Navy ROTC Scholarship.
Isaiah Perry is definitely the anchor of our team and we are really going to miss him, said Massena Coach Scott Perrine who also shared a family celebration when his son, Hunter Perrine, won his first sectional title as a freshman.
Isaiah, Landon Laughlin and Dan Elman really push each other hard in practice and that makes everybody better.
Gouverneur Coach Joel Baer feels that Dylan Stowell is a bonifide contender for a state title and that teammates Zach and Hunter Ayen will also make strong challenges.
I really believe Dillon can win state title after placing four straight years, Zach Ayen took fifth last year and Hunter Ayen looks very strong, said Baer.
I really like Massenas Isaiah Perrys chances and I think Tanner LaPiene and Andrew Cole from OFA are right up with wrestlers from our section with chances to place.
Stowell (113), LaPiene (99), Hunter Ayen (195) and another Gouverneur wrestler in Mike Mandigo (220) all qualified for state championship berths un opposed. Gouverneur and OFA accounted for all of the Division II titles.
Pinning their way to the top of the podium were: Gouverneurs Aaron Bush (120), Zach Ayen (132), Joey Love (138), Robbie Bell (145) and Curtis Fuller (technical fall 152). OFAs Josh Wangler (126), Cody Allen David (160), Andrew Cole (170), Alex Cole (182) and Nate Sarkin (285) all won titles with pins.
The lone decision in the Division II finals saw OFA seventh grader prevail in an 11-7 duel with Gouverneurs Joey Bush. A bout which was loaded with energy and technique and was not decided until the closing seconds.
The Division I finals featured the most dramatic decisions, the fastest fall and the best comeback. The high drama came at both ends of the weight spectrum.
Malones Joe Juarez broke a 4-4 tie with Thomas Lumbard Canton with a near fall just before the final buzzer at 220-pounds and Mike Brown of Massena held off Jon Feticie of Canton 3-2 at 106 pounds.
Massena behemoth Nolan Terrance followed with the fastest fall at 27 seconds at 285 pounds and another Raider Hunter Perrine rallied from a 9-6 deficit in the final minute to claim a 12-9 victory over Christian Fountain of Malone 152 pounds.
Also posting pins for Massena were: Skylar Cameron (113), Landon Laughlin (132), Isaiah Perry (138) and Jeremy Malone (195). Joe Ferrera (182) decisioned Alan Clement of Canton 12-5 and Konner German was unopposed at 120.
Winning titles for Canton by fall were: Ryan Brown (99), Jared Cascanette (160) and Nate Moose (170).
Joining Jaurez as Malone DI champions were Austin Learned who decisioned Massenas Jesse Patraw 9-2 at 126 and Jamiel Stapleton who fashioned a tactical gem in decisioning Massenas Dan Elman 6-0.

Nobody enjoys gutter cleaning. But it's much more important than many homeowners think. Rain flowing over windows, doors and siding can rot fascia as well as door and window framing. It can erode the soil around the home and damage its foundation. Plugged gutters can also cause a wet basement. To help keep gutters operating properly and to protect your home investment, try these tips:
Think safety first. Always use a solid, quality ladder to reach the gutters. Safety glasses and gloves are a good idea, too. And watch out for power lines.
Use the right tools for the job. In addition to a container to hold gutter debris, the person cleaning the gutter also needs a tool to scoop it out. Look for one that is flexible and shaped to fit the gutter, this will keep the workers hands away from the debris.
Don't overreach. Overreaching can destabilize the ladder and cause a fall. Instead, consider using a special tool to extend the reach.
Check the downspouts. If the spout is clogged, a coat hanger can be used like a rake can help get the debris out of the spout. Then, use a garden hose to flush out any remaining debris. For stubborn clogs, it may be necessary to remove the downspout and back flush it with the hose. Covering a downspout with a strainer will help reduce future clogging.
Clean gutters anytime, not just once a year. Most homeowners know they need to clean their gutters in the fall. But it's vital to clean them out anytime they are full. To protect the value of a home, keep the gutters clean throughout the year.

YIELD: Makes 2 small loaves
- 3 cups plus 2 tablespoons (14.1 ounces/400g) white bread flour, plus extra for dusting
- 1 1/2 teaspoons (0.18 ounce/5g) instant yeast
- 2 teaspoons (0.35 ounce/10g) fine salt
- 6 tablespoons warm milk
- 2 tablespoons (1 ounce/28g) superfine sugar
- 1 medium free-range egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
To knead by hand: Mix together all the dough ingredients in a large bowl to form a dough. Knead for about 10 minutes, until smooth and shiny.
Or, to use a stand mixer: Fit the dough hook and add all the dough ingredients to the mixer bowl. Mix on low speed until combined and mix for about 10 minutes, until smooth and shiny.
Shape the dough into a round, place in a bowl, and cover tightly. Leave in the fridge overnight.
The next day, divide the dough into 2 pieces and form into the shape of your choice. Lightly flour the loaves, lay them on a wooden board or linen cloth, and cover with a plastic bag. Leave them somewhere nice and warm to proof until almost doubled in size; this could take 3 or 4 hours, as the dough is cold.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. For the glaze, beat the egg and milk together. Transfer the risen loaves to a baking sheet and brush all over with the glaze. Bake for about 10 minutes, then lower the oven setting to 350°F and bake for a further 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.

|SUV Flips, Driver Hurt in Afternoon Crash
|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 03 September 2013 17:05
There were some terrifying moments for a Vilas man who drifted into the oncoming lane of NC 105 just south of Boone Tuesday afternoon—and terrifying moments for motorists who dodged his vehicle as it overturned and slammed into the south-bound guardrail.
Trooper Goldsmith said that 53-year old William Morgan lost control of his vehicle as he tried to pull back into his lane, ran off of the road to the right and flipped the vehicle several times, crossing the south-bound lane, coming to rest against the south-bound guardrail. Watauga Medics carefully removed the man from the crashed Nissan after Boone Fire forced the door open, but Trooper Goldsmith said that Morgan was not seriously hurt. He cited the Liberty Hill Vilas man with Failure to Maintain Lane Control in the 3:25pm crash.

JERUSALEM (MarketWatch) — Last decade's financial meltdown and the Great Recession that followed have left the global economy strewn with villains, fallen idols and anti-heroes, from Alan Greenspan and Lehman Brothers to subprime lenders and Bernard Madoff to the entire economies of Greece and Spain. What the mayhem did not produce is a hero.
Well, in one relatively minor economy it actually did produce a hero: Bank of Israel Gov. Stanley Fischer, who recently announced he would leave his office in June, two years before the end of his second five-year term. He explained that he wanted to spend more time with his family.
The former chief economist of the World Bank was at first greeted in Jerusalem almost like a Martian. The ability of this soft-spoken, scrawny, bespectacled immigrant just to survive, let alone assume a leadership position, within Israel's stormy public life was universally doubted.
Eight years on, Fischer is the father superior of Israeli bankers, traders and regulators, a celebrity for ordinary citizens and a role model for central bankers throughout the world.
Three qualities
How did he do it? With three qualities that in the past few would include in a central banker's job description: inspiration, an interventionist approach to the job, and leadership.
Fischer's inspiration was a local affair.
In his first news conference, which he assembled more than a month after he arrived, Fischer stunned all at hand by speaking fluent Hebrew and not a word of English, a principle to which he stuck throughout the subsequent eight years of public appearances. That alone immediately endeared him to the media and public.
Israel had absorbed millions of immigrants before Fischer, but none had descended on it from the peaks of international finance. When Israelis heard Fischer speak Hebrew and saw him jog daily on Tel Aviv's beachfront, they were inspired. His arrival, they now realized, was neither a whim nor a gimmick, but a noble statement that to this world-renowned moneyman, some things were more important than money.
ECB agrees to ease terms for Ireland
The European Central Bank Thursday agreed to ease the terms under which the Irish government repays €31 billion ($41.92 billion) of debts. Charles Forelle joins Markets Hub. Photo: AP.
As would later become apparent, this aspect of Fischer's priorities defied pre-meltdown Wall Street's Zeitgeist of greed, egotism and social aloofness.
Then again, once the global crisis erupted Fischer's task was no longer to endear Israel but to protect it from a global tsunami, and this he did by displaying the kind of interventionism that Alan Greenspan and other monetary purists had avoided.
One major intervention was in the currency markets. Faced with a rapidly appreciating shekel while major currencies were plunging, Fischer began buying dollars.
Technically, this was not unprecedented. The U.S. Treasury, for instance, did the same thing in the 1990s, albeit in reverse, after the dollar plunged to less than 80 yen. But that was momentary and unofficial. Fischer did this systematically and openly, at one point announcing he was buying $100 million daily until further notice.
Four years later, this move is universally hailed as brilliant. The shekel's excessive appreciation at the time was stemmed, thus avoiding an added burden to the exports that are the Israeli economy's locomotive. As a bonus, Israel's foreign-currency reserves have doubled, thus creating a strategic cushion for the kind of rainy day that in Israel is always a prospect.
Making his presence felt
Another telling intervention came when Fischer demanded that Israel's second-largest bank, Hapoalim, fire its chairman after he had made dubious dismissals and hires and reportedly obtained for himself improperly a personal loan for a dubious deal.

New season for warming centers: 'This program really is a miracle'
EUGENE, Ore. -- Around 175 homeless guests took shelter from the cold Monday night as the Egan Warming Centers opened their doors for the first time this season.
Warming center volunteers said that temperatures as temperatures start dropping on Tuesday the doors will open to the homeless at the six Egan Warming Centers around Eugene and Springfield.
One guest said that the warming centers have saved the lives of his two dogs, as well as his own.
Paul Burton told KVAL's Tom Adams that it was a cold New Years morning for his pooch named "Ricky Rocket", even though he had a sweater on.
"We high-tailed it over here and heard it was going to be 27 degrees," says Ricky's owner, Paul Burton.
The warming center provided shelter for Paul, Ricky and Burton's other furry kid, named Chuck E. Cheese.
"They are my boys; they are my life," explains Burton.
Thanks to a new season for the Egan Warming Centers, a program of Saint Vincent de Paul, Burton brought his dogs inside with the 77 other guests in the basement of the First Christian Church on Monday.
Burton said that he was moved by the opening of the center.
"I just, I stay up hours just kind of thinking about it, thanking God for the opportunity," Paul said.
Yesterday marked the start of the fourth winter season for the Egan Warming Centers. Six churches in the network open their doors to the homeless if the temperature dips below 30 degrees.
Shelter director Doug Bales said that a staff of over 100 volunteers run the centers that provide warm food, shelter and clothing for people who need hope.
"These are the mats that our guests sleep on," said Bales. "The homeless are wearing a lot higher quality coats and gloves and socks and underwear, again due to the generosity of this community."
Bales said that other cities around the world have called him, asking how they can start a similar program. Doug said that he is surprised with how well the program has taken off.
"I don't think anyone did. It's kind of a miracle, but everything about this program really is a miracle," said Bales.
Director Bales with six churches in the system, the Egan Centers could handle nearly 600 guests on the coldest nights this winter.

Ideal Uses
This product for all skin types gives more sun protection. This is sweat and water resistant. It is hypo allergenic and non greasy. This is the only sunscreen that do not give me facial blemishes.

I wear this everyday for protection and it is so lightweight and moisturizing. Purchased once from another retailer as myotcstore was out of stock and what I got was not the same formula as the one I received here. Could not be happier with the purchase and the price is great.

My dermatologist's office recommended CeraVe. I love all their products now! This lightweight, non-greasy moisturizer is perfect for summer since it also has SPF 30.

If the reason he has been bad is because he can't handle the NY spotlight why would any playoff team want to trade for him for a playoff run? If the reason he has been bad because he just isn't that good of a pitcher we are stuck with him for two seasons and wasted 10 million.
That's why it's a risk. This team has been so poorly run over the last fourteen years that we are almost bankrupt in talent. We need to add talent without giving up talent using EVERY method available. This is just one more method. If it turns out to be a bad risk, so be it. I don't think it means much anymore if you lose 90 games instead of 85. The return could be at least one, if not two, B level prospects. It's a risk I'd be willing to take.
The thing about taking a risk on Burnett is that if it fails it hurts the Orioles significantly more than it would if the Red Sox traded for him. It takes away a spot for a young guy to develop in. It takes away salary that could be used in other areas. And it would be rather pointless for us since we will not contend with him or without him.

After their three-game win streak was stopped in its tracks
by Tim Thomas and the Boston Bruins on Wednesday, the Rangers look to get back
in the win column with the first of three games against Western Conference
foes, the first two on the road, with tonight's matchup with the Colorado
Many expected the Avalanche to fall back to the pack this
season after a surprising playoff berth in 2009-10, but the Avalanche has
picked up where they left off and played well even in the absence of star
goalie Craig Anderson. The bad news for
the Rangers is that Anderson, who has been out since October 23, will be making
his return tonight. He wasn't off to a
terrific start this season but there's no doubt that Anderson almost single-handedly carried the
Avalanche at times last season. The team
has an enviable collection of cheap young forwards, but it gave up a ton of
shots against last season. Anderson bailed the
over-eager forwards and aging defense out time and time again. The Avs are lead offensively by Chris
Stewart, who came out of nowhere last season and already has 11 goals and 11
assists this season. Milan Hejduk and
Paul Stastny are also very reliable for the Avs, and they have terrific secondary
scoring from David Jones, Daniel Winnik, Ryan O'Reilly, T.J. Galiardi, Brandon
Yip and Kevin Porter. Matt Duchene, the
third overall selection in the '09 draft has had a disappointing start to the
season, and was even benched a couple weeks ago. On defense the Avs are led by the
ever-reliable, and nasty, Adam Foote, Scott Hannan, and John-Michael Liles
who's having the best season of his career. The Avs defense has been decimated by injuries lately and the team
recently called up top prospect Kevin Shattenkirk and acquired Ryan O'Byrne
from the Montreal Canadiens. Colorado is coming off wins over St.
Louis and San Jose
and ranks fourth in the league in goals scored, ninth on the power play, 22nd in goals against, and 28th on the penalty kill. Obviously the team will look to Anderson to remedy the
team's leaky defensive issues.
The Rangers could have easily won their fourth in a row over
Boston on
Wednesday, but the fantastic goaltending of Tim Thomas held the Blueshirts
without a point. Still, the team has
shown very encouraging signs lately and is getting closer to full strength with
Marian Gaborik back in the lineup and Chris Drury a couple weeks away. It appears likely that Derek Stepan, who has
been much better recently, will center Marian Gaborik and Alex Frolov. The Dubinsky/Anisimov/Callahan line will of
course be intact, followed by Prust/Boyle/Fedotenko and Avery/Christensen/and
either Derek Boogaard or Todd White. The
Blueshirts have played good enough defense and scored enough lately to keep
them in every game, but what's really been on display is this team's
character. Sunday's brawl didn't deter
the team; they scored three in a row right after. Monday's awful referring didn't stop them,
they answered back with a late goal and a winner in overtime. And Wednesday's brick wall opponent got the
winning decision, but the Rangers fought till the end. Indeed, this is not an easy club to play
against anymore. If the Avalanche think Anderson's return will be
enough to beat the Rangers, they'll be sadly mistaken.
These teams are evenly matched in the standings, but the
Rangers will be looking to avenge a 3-1 home loss to Colorado on October 18. They played that game without Gaborik, Drury,
or Prospal, so things could be a little different this time around. The Rangers need to capitalize on the
horrible penalty killing of the Avalanche and must kept their speedy forwards
to the outside. New York was also victimized by Chris
Stewart in front of the net in the first matchup of the season and must protect
the crease.
Youre so cool! I dont suppose Ive learn anything like this before. So good to seek out any individual with some unique ideas on this subject. realy thanks for starting this up. this web site is one thing that is needed on the net, somebody with a bit originality. helpful job for bringing something new to the internet!

PHS head coach Andrew Olson reacts to a play during the first half of Pinnacle's 91-53 win over Monument Valley on Saturday afternoon.
Taje Richardson got the Panthers' fast break offense working towards the end of the first quarter against Monument Valley. Richardson finished with 17 points and had a number of key steals and stops on defense to help the Panthers get the win.
Senior Dalton Rudman concentrates before shooting a free throw against Monument Valley on Saturday. Rudman finished with 19 points in the win.
The Pinnacle High Boys Basketball team has been lighting up the scoreboard as of late with a fast-paced style of offense.
But the Panthers' play can almost be compared to a car that's been outside in the cold. It needs some time to run before it begins to work efficiently.
For the Panthers it took over three and a half minutes before they hit their first shot in a game against Monument Valley on Saturday evening at the PHS Gymnasium.
But once the offense got going, there was no stopping the Panthers. Senior Taje Richardson, who came off the bench midway through the first quarter, helped spark a 5-0 run that gave the Panthers a 13-8 lead at the end of the first quarter.
From there, the Panthers turned on the jets as seniors Jake Hardy and Dalton Rudman combined to hit a number of 3-pointers that helped the Panthers head into halftime with a 44-26 lead.
That momentum carried over into the third quarter as Pinnacle went on a 21-0 run to blow the game wide open as they outscored Monument Valley 31-8 in the quarter en route to the 91-53 win.
Hardy led all scorers with a team-high 31 points, including five 3-pointers, and 11 rebounds.
Four other Panthers finished in double figures in scoring including Rudman (19), Richardson (17), Javanni Alyzayyat (10) and Jackson Nichols (10).
One day earlier against Navajo Mountain, Pinnacle used a 40-10 start in the first quarter to pull away for a 93-45 win.
The Panthers hit 13 3-pointers against Navajo Mountain and added another 14 against Monument Valley.
While it may take the Panthers a few minutes of game time to get things working correctly, the players believe the offense is geared to help them succeed.
"Once we start hitting shots, we get everything working," said Hardy.
The offense, which head coach Andrew Olson likes to get shots off within 8 to 10 seconds on each possession, has helped with the team's success because the Panthers enjoy the style of play, Hardy explained.
"It's like a never-ending fast break," said Hardy of the style of offense they run. "It was confusing at first but we've gotten better by practicing it everyday."
Olson said he can't pinpoint the exact reason the team always seems to start out slow. He credits the players for getting settled into their roles as they let their style of play take over the game.
"It seems like we always start slow, but once we start playing fast we get better," Olson said. "We always want to push the pace and we don't want to slow things down throughout the rest of the game."
Despite having a smaller team compared to other 1A schools, Olson said the team's athleticism and speed on both sides of the ball helps in overcoming that.
"We may be undersized but we're very athletic," he said. "We try to neutralize things with our team speed."
The Panthers are averaging 74.1 points per game and with seven games under their belts this season, Olson said he is pleased with the progress the team has made so far.
"It's going better than I could have imagined," he said.
The Panthers (6-1) will return to action on Saturday afternoon as they will host Escalante at 4:30 p.m. at the PHS Gymnasium.

Bigfoot at boot store a statuesque 'squatch
EUGENE, Ore. - The 9-foot-tall sasquatch standing behind Chad Williamson at Baker's Boots isn't real - unlike the one he said he saw in person.
"It was pretty scary, I definitely was freaking out," Williamson told KVAL News. "Me and my cousin were sitting by the fire and there was a noise and a splash in the water and we put a flashlight on it and we saw red eyes in the water. We kind of ran then."
The bigfoot at Baker's was created by crews from Animal Planet's "Finding Bigfoot." The sasquatch statue is making an appearance at the boot store for the next several months.
The idea is to promote local business, but Baker's employee Williams said the sighting near Tillamook made him a bigfoot believer.
"I also researched it and there were other sightings in that exact area," he said. "My dog was freaking out, and also the rocks - I don't know what would be able to smash rocks together."
He said the notion of a real sasquatch isn't that farfetched to him.
"Just like the rainforests, they discover species everyday," he said. "There's lots of people out in the forests all the time and they never see cougars or bears for years, so I don't know why something that's intelligent couldn't be found."

You think you have stress? What about your lawn? The sun beats down on it. People walk all over it. It's thirsty, and weeds want to take over. Yes, it's rough out there in the yard. But you can take some easy steps to help your lawn cope with the stresses of summer.
Heat, dry weather, and foot traffic are major stresses for most types of grass. Others include weeds and bugs, but they can become worse when your lawn is already suffering.
When you walk on well-watered grass, the grass blades spring back. On a dry lawn, the grass stays beaten down, and the grass itself can be damaged. Also, heavy foot traffic can lead to soil compaction, which keeps air from getting to the roots of your grass.
Dull mower blades shred grass, so they lose more moisture than they would with a clean cut. Also, the shredded tips turn brown, making the lawn look dull. Set your blade at the highest setting on your mower. Taller grass grows deeper roots, and deeper roots can reach moisture that's further down in the soil.
Stressed-out lawns aren't growing, so fertilizing them won't help much. Instead fertilize before the hot, dry weather arrives.
Morning is the most efficient time to water your lawn. Less is lost to evaporation and your lawn has time to dry off before nightfall. Watering in the afternoon is throwing water away to evaporation. Watering at night invites disease. Half an inch twice a week or 1 inch a week should keep your lawn refreshed.
If your lawn is prone to heat stress, you might want to overseed it with a grass that's formulated to handle heat and drought. As an example, Scotts® Turf Builder® Heat-Tolerant Blue grass seed contains Thermal Blue Kentucky bluegrass, which stays green even in scorching heat and drought, and spreads to fill bare spots. There are many varieties of Scotts Turf Builder grass seed. You can find the variety that matches your grass type here.

Fiorello H. La Guardia
Associated Press
Fiorello H. La Guardia 1882 - 1947
Fiorello H. La Guardia was the first man elected mayor of New York for three consecutive terms in modern times and the first reform mayor ever re-elected in the domain which Tammany Hall had ruled almost continuously for many years until the fiery little man with the black hat and the angry tongue crashed in to put the old-line politicians to rout. He was probably New York's most colorful mayor since Peter Stuyvesant.
Dynamic and aggressive, he appeared to be everywhere at once, rushing to fires at times and at other times flying all over the country by airplane. A fighter by nature, he was always ready to take on all comers, big or little, from Hitler to the man in the street.
He had told friends that he regarded as his greatest accomplishment an increase in efficiency and honesty in municipal government throughout the United States by force of the example of his administration in the nation's largest city.
Overhauling La Guardia, an Airport With a Historical Name but a Tarnished Image
It is worth asking whether the La Guardia brand has outlived its usefulness. If an entirely new airport emerges in the coming years, will its 1939 name still be relevant?

black dress
Every woman needs a black dress. Or so the glamour magazines repeatedly remind us. Too often, though, these dresses are worn only once for a special occasion and then end up unused and unwanted. This idea has inspired performance artist Dawn to create a piece centered on commodification in contemporary society. Dawn has sewn together a monument to the little black dress and all it represents: she has collected over 800 images of women modeling their dresses on eBay and turned them into an elegant yet monumental dress that borrows from former notions of courtly grandeur and femininity. Check out the eBay auction and the live feed from her performance debuting the dress on Saturday, April 22, 2006 from 7 to 9 p.m. EDT. Go to ebay.com and check out item # 930632853.

De-regulation: Kutlug Ataman and Irit Rogoff in conversation
The video shows a slightly edited recording of the conversation between the theorist Irit Rogoff and the artist Kutlug Ataman. It was held at the occasion of the opening of the exhibition curated by Rogoff "De-regulation with the work of Kutlug Ataman" which is shown in MUHKA Antwerp, from March 16 till May 28 2006.
The exhibition project brings together a body of work by the contemporary Istanbul/London based Turkish artist, Kutlug Ataman including 7 multiple and single screen installations by Ataman: Never My Soul, Vicious Circle, Twelve, 1 + 1 = 1, TV Room, Martin is Asleep, and Women Who Wear Wigs. This is the first time a range of works by this innovative artist have been assembled together in continental Europe.
The exhibition created an open field which collates many materials; a visual essay by the German artist and theorist Stefan Roemer, Istanbul based theorist Nermin Saybasili has gathered together an archive of wedding culture among the many different ethnic groups in the city, while London based academic and conceptualiser of the exhibition Irit Rogoff has assembled film posters from Turkey�
Cultural Context Providers: Command Performances
Currently, there is much advocacy for cultural practices that demand a particular involvement on the part of the audience, creating situations in which art projects are co-produced. People interact with networked computer systems and artifacts evolve out of experimental relationships between several people. The media art curator is not exclusively the "middle person" between artists and museums or galleries anymore. Curators do not merely organise exhibitions and edit, filter and arrange museum collections. Now, her practice includes facilitating events, screenings, temporary discursive situations, writing/publishing, symposia, conferences, talks, research, the creation of open archives, and mailing lists. Curators become meta-artists. They set up contexts for artists who provide contexts. The model of the curated website has become a useful recognition mechanism. In media art many cultural context providers function in various registers including that of the curator. However, the once clear line between curator, artist and theorist is now blurred.

Here is the ATC recording.
Must have been one more of those famous SWA "hi speed taxi" profiles SWA is so famous for. They like to brag about 20 minute turns at the airport yet this is what happens when you strive to do that. That's why the rest of us "look" like we are taxiing slow. Trying to keep the mud off the wheels, it's a jet, not a 4X4 or an Indy car.
back in the day, they would turn 'em in 10 minutes at an outlying airport, not sure about DAL.
but this was not a "turn". this should have been the first leg of the day for that aircraft.
"Hey Michelin man".
One thing I hate about SWA is the seating system.
It may have worked when they were a small company mainly serving Texas and nearby states, but for a longer flight, like Islip to Tampa or Fort Lauderdale, people should be able to choose a seat online.
That's one reason my relatives on LI go to jetBlue JFK instead of Islip.
well random boarding was shown to be the fastest boarding process by that asu academic paper or whoever wrote it. Generally speaking though, if you get an A boarding group you can pretty much sit anywhere you want, so i don't mind the seating system.
What happens to the pilots now? Are they allowed to fly or do they sit on the sidelines until SWA and FAA complete an investigation? How long before aircraft is checked for damage and deemed airworthy again?
What will happen to the pilots is primarily up to SWA,BUT, the article says at one point they were just doing a straight taxi, then it says the missed a turn or failed to negotiate it. At any rate, pax deplaned and SWA sent in another plane. AC did receive damage and it will be fixed before it flies again.
This is one slipping and sliding airline!!!

Our strategy
Respond to the immediate needs of Syrian refugees and their host communities. Work across multiple sectors to build comprehensive humanitarian and development programs that support the needs of both refugees and local citizens.
The context
Lebanon is home to profound political, ethnic and religious complexities that result in a complicated internal conflict between sect, confession, tribe and family. Key indicators such as life expectancy, literacy, school enrollment and per-capita income lag behind more developed countries.
In the last four years, it has become home to the largest number of refugees fleeing the extended conflict in neighboring Syria, further straining a stressed infrastructure. Because there are no official camps for Syrians here, refugee families are scattered in makeshift shelters and abandoned buildings, with little access to services and community support.

Our work
- Emergency response: Distributing clothes, blankets and household supplies to Syrian refugee families staying in temporary shelters and host communities.
- Children & Youth: Leading programs that help children process trauma and integrate into their new host communities. Providing creative activities for young adults to develop leadership, decision-making and other life skills.
- Conflict & Governance: Helping local municipalities manage resource needs related to the crisis. Creating a network of trained peace mediators to identify and manage tensions between groups.
- Water: Improving access to clean drinking water in tent settlements and collective shelters. Educating families about proper hygiene and rehabilitating community water infrastructures, including schools.

A fatal car accident on US-6 left two people dead on Saturday afternoon.
The collision involving a car and a semitrailer occurred near Cat Canyon just east of Wellington shortly before 5 p.m.
Two people in a red Ford Escort, 46-year-old Johnna George and 55-year-old David George, were killed. Both were from the Salt Lake area. Neither the driver or passenger appeared to be wearing seat belts, UHP reported.
The Ford Escort was traveling westbound when it crossed over into the eastbound lane and hit the semitrailer, which was traveling eastbound, twice. The Escort first hit the trailer on the driver side and then bounced out and hit the second trailer on the driver side when it came to rest, UHP reported.
A silver PT Cruiser was also traveling westbound when it lost control and spun off the road to the right side. The vehicle did not make contact with any of the others involved, according to UHP.
The driver of the semitrailer and the PT Cruiser reported no injuries, according to UHP.
Weather is believed to be a factor in this crash as the roads were wet with heavy rain. Traffic quickly backed up in both directions as the highway was shut down for 45 minutes. A single lane was later opened to allow alternating traffic for approximately four hours, UHP said.
