MORRISTOWN - Plans for a new village garage are on hold for the remainder of the year in order to secure a variance for the project.
Village Superintendent of Public Works Kevin J. Crosby said the new garage wouldnt meet the villages set-back requirements and so they are in the process of getting an exception to the law approved by the Zoning Board of Appeals.
Were just going through the normal process, Mr. Crosby said. The first part of the process is applying for the permit and getting rejected.
Mr. Crosby said the proposed garage is technically too large for the plot of land, on the corner of Gouverneur Street and Northumberland Street, and not far enough away from the road.
The current village garage is too small to house all of the villages equipment forcing some things, like the village plow truck, to sit outside year-round.
Mr. Crosby said he never expected the garage to move forward this summer, though it was talked about early in the year as a low priority project that would be helpful to have finished.
Next year is a different story.
Mr. Crosby said the project will definitely go forward next summer. In June Mr. Crosby said the project would likely cost less than $150,000.
The new garage will also house a permanent dumping station for campers to utilize. Currently a temporary station, the only one between Jacques Cartier Park and Ogdensburg, has been set up by the village docks.

Clermont through to first ever Heineken Cup Final after tense win over Munster
Clermont will face Toulon in the final of the Heineken Cup after a tense 16-10 victory over Munster at the Stade de la Mosson on Saturday. It will be their first ever Heineken Cup final in what in what will be a closely fought all French affair in Dublin.
Clermont looked in control for a large part of the game after having scored a stunning try early on through powerful winger Napolioni Nalaga. Munster couldn't stop the powerful French outfit extending their lead, as Morgan Parra slotted three penalties in total, taking the gap out to 16-3.
Two-time former champions Munster came back late in the piece though as Denis Hurley got on the end of a well placed Ronan O'Gara stab through. It wasn't enough however and all hopes of a dramatic comeback were snuffed out by the might of this very impressive Clermont side.
On a weekend where veteran number tens shone, it would have been fitting if O'Gara had somehow manufactured a victory for his side, but as it was there were tears in the end and it was perhaps the last time we'll see him grace the tournament.
He said that he wasn't focussing on himself but would give it till the end of the season to decide whether he will hang up his boots of play another season with Munster.
Lee Byrne was delighted with the victory, but also paid tribute to the courageous effort from the visitors. "It is a dream come true for me to finally reach a Heineken Cup final. But you can't take anything away from Munster - they wore their famous red jersey with real pride," he said.
Clermont will face Toulon in the Heineken Cup Final in Dublin on May 18th, kickoff at 17:00 local.
Below are both tries and on the next page you can view emotional interviews with victorious Byrne and Nathan Hines, as well as distraught O'Gara and Paul O'Connell.

these 2 finalists have budgets many multiples of munsters...and yet, that second kick through almost yielded a try near the end for munster, and you know o gard would have converted for 16-17.
Ah well. The man-cityification of rugby rolls relentlessly on.
Colombes April 29, 2013 11:02 am
Comparing Clermont with Man-City perfectly epitomises that few (not all) fans ignorance towards french rugby and top14 in general.
U blame the salary cap? just like Cockerill, well, it's not top14 problem, but a premiership one
U think Clermont and Toulon are a marketing thing, these 2 clubs are 100 years old, with a big and passionate fan basis. Not like Saracens unable to gather moire than 20000 fans in Twickenham...
U think Clermont and Toulon doesn't represent the rugby valors of suffering? Well,Clermont had to be 10 times in TOp14 finals before to win it, and slowly but surely progress inHcup.... When Toulon had to come back from Pro-D2 thx to Boudjellal personnal finance efforts
I can understand after-match bitterness and jealousy, but a bit of objectivity should be welcome. Rugby trolls relentlessly rolling on...
matt April 29, 2013 2:49 pm
History and all else aside, if the other clubs in the H cup were allowed to spend this much, there would be rich owners stepping in here too to have a crack at winning cups.
Moqxo April 29, 2013 3:15 pm
It stills represents the double and your comment is relevant, but inaccurate.

The next question being what are the better rules/system...
matt April 30, 2013 12:46 am
Colombes April 29, 2013 3:58 pm
But i don't think money is the major problem as french clubs hadn't been in final since 3 years...
In France, the Salary Cap is superior for many reasons:
Firstly, the success of rugby since the RWC 2007 attract big attendance, and more families (when the football is sometimes despised for some hooligans ambiance)... So the clubs earn more money
Then, the mecenes and brands are quite interested by rugby "vogue" and values... so they invest money in clubs (Michelin, EADS, Renault, etc...)
Thus, the competition becomes harder and clubs wants to buy more players to anticipate any injuries avalanche.... with a perverse efect on this last point: clubs sometimes forget formation, prefering to beg on "experienced" SH players, than fragile french youngsters...
But on this last point, since the bad french results in the last 6N's and Toulouse lack of "jeu à la toulousaine"... agreements will impose quotas of young french players in every top14 clubs. I'm quite favourable with this future regulation which will raise the salary cap in order to launch new french players without handicaping the business model of clubs like Toulon and Clermont.
But at the end, is it the foul of french rugby if the celt and british feds don't want to attract a new public or new investors? Nop... But i've got the feeling that the future RWC 2015 can be a turning point in british rugby institutions.
Wait and see
Vanadyel April 29, 2013 11:13 am
In the French league, all clubs can go down divisions. The 2 last (13th and 14th ranked) clubs go to the 2nd division (Pro D2) and only the 6 (or 7) firsts access the Hcup, which contrarily to Irish club system puts a high pressure on your local league results. Whereas 3 or 4 (all) Irish clubs are automatically qualified. That is what triggers the run to high budgets in France.
I'm not saying which one is better system, and there is a debate here whether French club should adopt the Irish provincial system.
Toulon has a big rugby history as well, and only injecting money in the club was not the only key to success. Example: Racing-Metro 92 and Saracens have a moderate fan basis, which might explain why their success is limited (I like to think the XVIth man is real important in rugby).
But don't worry, the Frenchmen do not worship euro bills. And actually a lot of French supporters despise Toulon for several reasons: it could be their money (though I think that is called jealousy), it could be for their supporters who whistle every single kick attempt of the opposite side or any referee decision (but they call this their rugby culture), or it could be for their president Mourad Boudjellal who also can easily spit on refereeing (see the "refereeing sod*my") or anything he may not like/agree with.
Hmmm I think I slightly digressed here, but at least you now know more about French rugby.

Dont forget us bitter munster fans bankroller you through the IRFU and now leinster does.
Up until a few years ago you only had approx 500 season ticket holders.
Smallest province (pop) = smallest budget
Get more of your friends to go to the match's with you.
The only reason your in the heineken is because of the rest of us.
Bitter enough for you now?

And so what they have a few bucks to spend, thats the new standard so. Leinster, Munster etc now have to raise theirs.
Brilliant game of rugby and brilliant fans from BOTH sides.

I personally do think it's a shame when teams are far from local or far from its own nation of players, but that appears to be the way rugby is heading and Clermont is not the only team to have foreign players... I recall a while ago the Saracens being likened to a Bok second team, countless players have crossed borders in the UK to play for others.
Rather than blame the clubs why not go all out and blame the players, "yeh well done Hines, you gave up the freezing highlands or wherever you were and moved to a lovely warm part of France" ... Actually whilst we're on Hines, wasn't he born somewhere completely non-scottish?
Guy April 29, 2013 1:50 pm
If you don't like the money that's going round in our beloved sport nowadays....well, try supporting a team that does not play at the highest level.

But what is remarkable is how he brought very big names to the club (Gregan, Matfield, Mehrtens, Collins, Umaga who stayed for a while, etc.) while it was in Pro D2 thus transforming Toulon into an "international brand" very marketable for high profile players from France and abroad.
To be fair..when you watch the starting line its pretty impressive since it's now very well organised at every position. They have played an very pleasant rugby most of the year (they have been struggling a little for the last two or three months)
matt April 29, 2013 2:54 pm
Having said that, it isn't fair complaining at the French, it should be the RFU(?) that gets blamed, the way they financially govern the Aviva premiership is absurd. And from the very brief bits I've read on the subject, the WRU is no better.
Damo April 29, 2013 3:34 pm
How many of those players are actually from clermont? and I dont mean france. Your club operate for their own prosperity nothing else. Munster, Leinster, Ulster and Connacht all operate for the benifit of its people. If we had businesses runing our sports their wouldnt be a european cup. I dont think Connacht have made a profit for the vast majority of its existance.
Do you realise that in Ireland it is a socialist program essentially? No 1 man owns any of the clubs, its people and supporters do.
Just so you know, 11 of the starting team and 16 in the squad are from Munster, with 20 Irish men. Say bye bye to your national team, because you personally have SOLD THEM OUT.
6/7 french players in the Clermont starting team?
Guy April 29, 2013 4:39 pm
On the other hand: you can't just compare both countries. The French (for their national selection) can select from 14 teams, the Irish from 4. That alone is a reason to force the team to keep the amount of foreign players low in Ireland.
Damo April 29, 2013 7:40 pm
Oh ya and the french results in compeditive rugby. The fact of the matter is they should always be the best in the northern hemi along with England.
Yet wales continues to be the best at international level and Ireland the best at club level. FACT
mise April 29, 2013 3:37 pm
This final represents big money. That's unquestionable. And its something rugby fans think about from time to time - and this is an apt time to think about it, because this final has these teams in it because of big money.
Yes, they have real fans and long histories, more than many teams do. But that alone would not have gotten them into the final.
Sometimes, things are protected and for good reason: Irish club numbers of foreign players for eg. (and of course in life outside rugby that happens too, and again for good reason - PGI DOC PDO etc in food)
Of course every single fan would like their individual club to have loadsa money. That's a pointlessly obvious and myopic notion.
But something is lost when the game becomes primarily about the worlds top 100 players in each hemisphere playing almost exclusively for whoever pays the most.
This is especially the case if there are weak or no rules on balancing the books (even soccer is getting rid of that one soon, thankfully).
One of the many effects of this is that fans become irreverent cheerleaders as the years roll by: replaceable by other, better paying fans if they don't like the arrangement.
When this happens, rugby may be a large spectator sport, but it will be something only slightly more relevant than 3d cinema or an xbox.
@colombes you are making presumptions. I know that well paid players can try hard etc
@vanadaryl thanks for the extra info (the 4th Irish club qualified this time around because Leinster won last time. And if the negotiations go a particular way about how the H cup works, Italian and Scottish teams may end up never even getting close to competing)
And obv there is more to this than the two french clubs btw - its at a trend, a dynamic in the game that's worth examining.

South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, Ireland, Wales, Scotland unions all have some if not total control.
And didnt france get HAMMERED in the u21 6nations this year? Most of them where from the Div 2 in france!! Bye bye France, at least England are trying to bring through their own players, with success I might add!!! Owen Farrell, Barrit, could be here all day
Vanadyel April 29, 2013 4:10 pm
France was 5th this year in U20 (better than main team who was last...).
But the 2 years before we were 2nd.
So, you know, there's no real trend here.
As for local players (or at least trained locally), the requirements are getting higher every year. Today, 50% of players have to be trained in France. Next year (or the year after, I think it has changed), it's gonna be 60%. I think we need more rules but we have lots of great players to come (Fofana who just became famous, Buttin, lots of guys from Toulouse...)
matt April 30, 2013 12:55 am
Also, I think we ought to be careful about referring to Barrit as bringing through our own players.
Damo April 30, 2013 7:50 pm
Where I come from every rugby player wants to play for Munster, because we love the place its who we are and we can live in our own town, around our own family and no reason to leave.
What even dump you come from it is obviously different.
And speaking as some one who lived in New Zealand. There super rugby competition is useless. I went to the Super Rugby final between the Crusaders vs Warathas. An "amazing" attendence of 25,000 for the best team in super rugby ever.
So dont tell me that money is all there after. ROG and POC dont play for money, they play for trophies, for passion and pride, for their families and friends. Maybe that dump you live in could learn from us. oh ya and 5 HC in the last 7 years, 8 in total, 2 irish teams in the final last year.
And another thing, the final will not be sold out this year because their french and its happened before.
Munster filled the Millenium stadium in 08, lets see the dump you come from do that
You talk noting but nonsence
Damo April 29, 2013 4:23 pm
And I dont mean trained in france, I mean Clermont kids growing up to play for Clermont. And as far as I know about those rule changes, salary caps etc They say 1 thing but actually end up coming show, ie salary cap rules.
The only solution in my eyes is to limit the number of NON FRENCH players in each team. Something like 5 in a match day squad and no more than 6 at the club?
France has the ability but not the mentality, 60million people in france - 6million in Ireland.
Perhaps france should also stop going to the Pacific Islands too to find players to play for France.
The Pacific Islands coachs (notibally Fiji) recently complained about french clubs PAYING pacific Island players to NOT play for their country.
Fance is doing the game no favours, only filling the pockets of the rich at the expience of the poor
Vanadyel April 29, 2013 4:35 pm
I also agree on quotas of French players actually playing (starting XV).
I think it all comes down to one thing: there should be a unique system in Europe or even in the world (but let's first begin with EU), having the experience of the errors of soccer.
Damo April 29, 2013 7:43 pm
France and England are about to bully out Italy and Scotland from the Heineken Cup.
I recon all the smaller nations should team up and vote together (IRB about to give smaller nations more power ie Italy in the north and Argentina in the south)
matt April 30, 2013 1:00 am
As much as I hate to say it, I think if the NH is going to keep pace with the SH in future we either have to steal all their players (Top 14 is admirably doing its part here) or find a way to encourage genuine competitiveness in our competitions. And one way to do that is re examine who is given places in the H cup
Damo April 30, 2013 7:56 pm
The more you talk the more people can see that you one of those money hungry capitalists.
You should bury your head in the sand mate because you and people like you have no vision. You clearly know nothing about the game on any scale (local or international)
You do know that Russia want in on the HC. And before u start coming out with even more S**T you should check out the details. And yes note the operating budgets. You dont NEED money to be sucessful, remember that
Colombes April 29, 2013 4:52 pm
France salary cap had a perverse efect with a lot of recruitment in the SH, but like said before, things will be more regulated in following years. There isn't a lack of talent in youth squads, far from that. The system and some french management mentalities wasn't just favourable enough for them.
Limit the number of foreign players on match sheet? That's a "discrimation" and would lead to the same football statements of "Arret Bosman".
I won't answer on the argument "ireland vs france mentality" who doesn't even deserve an answer.
France does its "market" in pacific islands? I didnt know that manu tuilagi was... french. Are u referring to Tolofua, Vahaamina, Taofifenua who are all french born...?
Or is it because the racingman Vaikatawa has claimed he would be interested to play for france...
France is doing no favours to the game...? As you seem to favour ridicule arguments, fair enough

There is no correlation between the two. When two teams play each other, there is no thought about budget difference, it is entirely about beating the other team no matter what. When Clermont and Munster started this game, they both started at 0-0. Clermont played better, and so they won.
Grenoble beat Toulon two weeks ago, and their budget is very low in comparison.
If anyone has any evidence to show that the greater budget, the more victories - please share.

mise April 29, 2013 7:43 pm
All protectionisms impose limits and sometimes that can be, or seem, unfair: but of course there are numerous ways, sometimes unintended, that unfairness emerge. Esp in an unbridled pure capitalist system.
My own feeling on the Irish recent dominance of the H cup was that it was in part caused by some judicious national-provincial player management, helped in no small part by a tax intensive for retiring players.
Before professionalisation, almost all Irish players played in the UK, and it was a dark dark time for the national squad. They were appalling.
Of course Leinster ended up loosing N Hines to....Claremont because of the rules/limits in Irl.......
Damo April 29, 2013 8:14 pm
The one thing I will say is Ireland put a lot of money into bringing those players in England back to play Ireland and yes with the help of the tax system. Dont forget rugby was tiny in Ireland at the time. Munster only had about 5000 supporters when they beat saracens back in the 90's.
Even though we have dominated europe we have no where near dominated the transfer market. And our operating budget is about 1/6 of the top teams in France. For what we have we do very very well, Im just saying clubs and capitalism are not good for the game in general.
Imagine this, Ireland and Wales let players go to the top14, taking french players positions all the while we have Irish and Wales players playing top flight rugby in europe and 80/90% of those Irish and Welsh clubs have mostly home grown players?
Sound familiar???
Ireland has copied New Zealands model
Reality April 29, 2013 9:12 pm
Two French clubs will be playing, but there won't be two French teams playing. You can say they deserve to be in the final and that they're the two best teams around, fine, but to call them French is just incorrect.
Colombes April 29, 2013 10:14 pm
Trying to justify Munster defeat by the money power of french clubs, or simply saying that french clubs aren't frenchs.
I hear the same biased semantic each year
Hcup success is due to an amount of experience, management, fitness peak and strategy. Like Clermont, u must lose, to know how to win... If money ruled the world, France would have win the 10 last hcups. but they didn't!
Certainly because they have less heart, passion and pride than irish provinces, etc bullshit... etc topics...
Sour grapes really can create total delirium, really.
Reality April 29, 2013 11:17 pm
If it was down to just the factors that you listed, Munster would have easily won the game with their superior experience and heart etc. The fact is though that Clermont's players are far better, the reason being that they were able to buy world-class talent.
In fairness, they have some great French players as well, so they're not as bad as Toulon in that sense, but to dismiss the argument that French clubs buy players and therefore buy success as sour grapes is just foolish. I mean at the end of the day, 19 out of the starting 30 of Clermont and Toulon at the weekend weren't French, so I think saying they have an unfair advantage in that they can buy in whatever mercenaries they want is a perfectly valid point. Do you think they go to France to be able to play for teams with good management and strategies, or do you think they go because they can earn a big sack of money? If money is so unimportant, would Clermont and Toulon be in the final if they weren't owned by millionaires who gave them loads of money? No way.
Colombes April 29, 2013 11:41 pm
i just constate that ur aknowledge of french rugby is very poor, and based on a lot of clichés. these weekend results are maybe too fresh, and our views certainly too passionate, to have a fair conclusion ;)
big top14 money is a factor of success, a light pro12 calendar is another one.
but to say that millions win u Hcups is simply demagogic bullshit. The very poor results of "millionaires" like stade français and racing say it all.
Vanadyel April 30, 2013 12:13 am
On the other hand lots of players choose Clermont not only for money but also for the experience: money helps leaving the home country that's for sure, but they know who's gonna train them and I think Vern Cotter is a good factor, and they know they're gonna play in Hcup and they kinda know what's the rugby style here and there.
But that's not the point: the point is that french clubs and irish clubs do not have the same set of rules. It's not the fault of France or Ireland but they point out a problem: we need to have a common system so that everyone plays on the same level. I like ours as much as I like the Irish one. But people at the top of the rugby union have to say something. Protectionism or capitalism, or a mix of both?
Reality April 30, 2013 9:36 pm
But regarding the 'light' Pro 12 calendar, some people would say that playing difficult matches every week trains you to be good. I find it hard to believe that the Irish teams could just not try for the 22 Pro 12 games there are a year, and then suddenly become excellent for the 6 Heineken Cup ones. I'd argue that if they're so good in the Heineken Cup, then they must have learned to be good from somewhere. And I think Munster vs Leinster for example is as important as any Heineken Cup game. Yeah, there are low quality games like Zebre vs Edinburgh, but first of all the Italians and Scottish need a league to play in. I'd say the Top 14 expanding to include the Italian teams would have been perfect, but it didn't expand, and instead, the Celtic League welcomed them. Secondly, I don't know why you have such a high opinion of the Top 14. The top 6 are pretty good, but then the rest of the teams are terrible. Bayonne vs Agen is a worse standard than anything in the Pro 12. If you compare the Pro 12 teams against the best 12 of the Top 14, I think the Pro 12 teams are definitely as good.

I can understand the problems that money is causing in a non global sport such as rugby and I must say I'm part of the French who don't like Toulon because of their 'Galacticos' strategy. But to say that RCT and ASM are not French, that this final won't have a decent taste because of their budget, or that France is stealing players from the Pacific Islands (please name one player from these islands who ISN'T French) is just unbearable.
Go and check the comments for the 2010 HC final between ST and BO. There is not a single mention of their budget. How come it's what everybody's talking about now ? Saturday's game was a superb semi-final. Maybe not a classic like ASM-Leinster last year, but still... There has been ONE comment about it whereas there is so much to say!
And Clermont in the same bag as Toulon? Seriously? If their is one team that deserves to be in that final for all their efforts, patience and suffering over these last four years, it's them.
To be honest, I think that bringing players like Roberts, Lydiate or Sexton in the T14 is a mistake because in the long term it will hinder the HCup for it's weakening the opponents, which is not the same thing as reinforcing your team.
But as a rugby lover who doesn't have the time to watch Super Rugby or even the Four Nations, I'm really glad I can see players like Sivivatu, Giteau, Botha et al on a weekly basis. It's also a good championship is about: a good show with some quality players.
To be continued. Yes I have a lot on my heart because I'm really glad to see a team like Clermont in that final and to see people diminish their success like that upsets me a lot.
Pinksnotdead April 30, 2013 12:19 am
They all battle week in week out in a much tougher much tighter championship than the Pro12. For that, they need much bigger squad. These last few weeks, Clermont had a HC 1/4 final, an away game against Toulon the reception of the 2012 champions, a HC semi and will have another semi, a HC final and maybe an other final.
It is strictly impossible to go through that without losing a few players to injury. When Vosloo or Rougerie get injured, you need guys like Bardy or King to step up. For that you need big budgets.
These last few years people complained about the advatage that the Pro12 teams have because they don't have to fight for their spot in the HC or because they could rest their players and it is just as ridiculous.
If anything, those semi-finals have proven that even though teams are fighting with different weapons, the margin between them is considerably thin. Maybe Munster would have won the semi, had it been in Ireland. And there is no doubt they will win some in the next few years.
As far as Pro 12 is concerned, I'm sure it's a very entertaining championship, but I can't help but feel that they do need something like a relegation system and a HC qualification system, not because it would be more fair (fairer?) but because it makes the league much more interesting and therefore bring more people to the stadium and more audience on TV.
A team like Stade francais plays at least 4 time a year at the stade de France, plus a bunch of games in cities like Lille or Le Havre, which bring tons of cash and creates new fans. Who shows up to Newport Dragons vs Zebre bar a few die hard fans ? If those teams feared relegations, I can tell you that those games would be much more interesting.
Well I think I'm done here, sorry if this is unreadable, but don't worry, I don't speak my mind very often.

I want the french teams to give up one of their places to Italy and we'l (RaboPro12) will give one to another developing nation.
Oh ya france wont do that because they want less nations in the competition.
Where is the vision there.
You can put your house on it that the final this year will not be sold out, compare that to a real club like Munster who sold out the millenium stadium against Biarittz.
Throw french rugby to the wolves.
Couldnt beat Irish teams on the field so they beat us with money, boring!
Pinksnotdead April 30, 2013 12:39 am
Or Fofana, who I think is from the suburbs of Paris, does he deserves to wear that yellow shirt?
What about Nalaga who arrived in Clermont when he was 18 and has always played there? Is he worthy of being called a Montferrandais or is he just another mercenary?
matt April 30, 2013 1:13 am
I did enjoy your comment(s) though, keep it up
Damo April 30, 2013 8:09 pm
England and France are trying to get rid of the possibility of any Italian or Scottish clubs playing in the competition so they can be replaced by french of english clubs or just not have them at all.
I guess you call this fair, muppet
Damo April 30, 2013 8:22 pm
As for the other you mentioned, yes they should. Ever hear of developing a team? or building one. All you know is money. Probably why French sports teams are so fickle? Soccer and rugby, weak mentally.
As for Bourgoin, they should be even lower, worst team in the Heineken Cup even, right behind Agen.
The idea is to get the best local players you can, then add best national players where you are weakest and ONLY THEN do you look outside.
In France its get the best players (mostly outside france) and if we cant get the best get a random French guy. And dont tell me its not, idiot
TotesMcGoates April 30, 2013 1:25 am
I think Clermont in particular have been one of the best sides that I've seen in either hemisphere this year and they deserve to be there in the final.
Vanadyel April 30, 2013 10:30 am
I don't think the point is deserving a final or not (how many times would we deserve to have won against Leinster... :D), it's a matter of differences between systems: money in France is countered by the calendar and the protectionism in Ireland (can an Irish play abroad?).
Both have pros and cons: great foreign players and great local league or developing local players... etc

and like noticed before, i'm generally pretty fan of the rugby played by irish teams (especially Leinster), but some irish fans acrimonious remarks just don't have their place on this blog, and particularly on this Clermont victory thread.
I fact, all this very "intelligent" exchange on "money rule the world" or "french teams aren't...frenchs" would have been (maybe) more credible on Toulon thread.
Reality May 01, 2013 12:50 am
You're absolutely right in saying that the arguments are more valid for Toulon than Clermont, but I think considering how many mercenaries the two teams have (19 out of 30 last weekend), together with the publicity that the Jonathan Sexton move to Racing has created, along with the increasingly alarming lack of French players in key positions in the traditional French rugby powerhouse Toulouse, as well as the recent exodus of Welsh players to French clubs, people are getting very worried about the future of the game.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the rugby Clermont play. I think they play really attractive rugby, even if I think they shouldn't be allowed to buy so many foreign players, and maybe it is inappropriate for all these comments to be made here rather than on the Toulon video, but even if it's inappropriate, the arguments still stand, and in my view are very valid.
TotesMcGoates May 01, 2013 2:44 am
It's the same thing as a Waratahs supporter complaining of the big money in Leinster attracting a Rocky Elsom etc overseas. I don't know the specifics of the finances of each club but I think that Leinster pull a bigger crowd than the 'Tahs every week so I'm assuming that they have more money to throw around based on that.
It's been said earlier, each system has its merits and pitfalls. I think it's just a case of different strokes for different folks.
young guns May 01, 2013 12:21 am
what i don't like though is the fact that they are now trying to get rid of Scottish and Italian teams from the Heineken cup. them and the English clubs are so flipping self centered it's ridiculous. if they want to change the Heineken cup do it to benefit the sport not your own pockets!
Europe has the highest playing population in the world and the oldest international tournament in the world. yet it has only been changed twice in its history.
I feel that they should change the Heineken cup to include teams from countries like Georgia, Romania (both are regular RWC teams now), Russia, Spain and Germany ... make it Change the qualification process completely as well. From the RD12 - top 2 irish teams, top 2 welsh, top scottish and italian. this means that where the teams finish actually matters and makes the league more interesting, money, higher attendances (the irish clubs keep the average up really!) the top 3 french and top 3 english. 4 spots for georgia romania russia, spain, germany. 2 for the finalists of the amlin and the last 5 are decided through qualifiers. the qualifiers can be done at the end of the season because all the teams involved in the business end of the season will generally have already have qualified. if they haven't amends to fixture dates can be done.
IRB should really make a big effort to rugby going big time in Germany. biggest!economy in Europe. plus the children there actually want to play the sport. spent a summer there and my school mates loved the sport!

I'm with TotesMcGoates on the Russia/Georgia in the HC. Who would watch Bucarest-Agen in the AC? Is it even on TV?
Besides it's the AC's role to develop the game in Europe.
Although, off topic, this year I saw Poland-Ukraine (3rd International division) on streaming and my word the Ukrainian where playing a fantastic brand of rugby: counter-atttacking from their 22, playing fast pace rugby, offloading... So it's not only the usual Georgia or Japan (best brand of rugby in the world in my opinion) that are improving. I heard Cyprus could qualify for the world cup too!
As far as the HC format is concerned, I don't think there is actually any French rugby fan that would like to change the way it is. This competion seems to improve by itself every single year. Why fix something that is not broken? I'm sure the English fans feel the same way.
The one for who it is really not working are the Welsh. Maybe they should forbid their welsh players to play abroad, but I feel something is deeply wrong in their club rugby: they have some fantastic players, but in front of how many people do they play? When was the last time a welsh club reached the HC semi ? 2009, no? At some point the WRU is bound to see that they must ask theirselves some questions.
Pinksnotdead May 01, 2013 4:10 am
All the French footballers, rubgyman or whatever that go to England say that the one thing that surprised them was the intensity of the training. Always. Especially working out. We just tend to play more than work. Which is part of the explanation between the different ways of playing between the two countries.
In football, France became world champions just a few years after the 'arret Bosman' from the EU that enabled them to go abroad and train like champions must do.
Since in rugby the French are not moving away to learn it, why not import that training culture?
That is exactly what happened with Clermont when Cotter arrived. All the players are much stronger than just a few years ago. The the child-eating mercenaries from Toulon are not only good players, their all workaholics and all the French in the squad are saying that training with them forced them to work way way harder.
But maybe the top 14 is just a doomsday device that will destroy european rugby.
Colombes May 01, 2013 2:34 pm
If french clubs are interested by foreign players in order to attract attendance and sponsors, i don't think it will handicap France on the long term.
I'm not a big fan of St-André as a manager, his teams generally a direct and forward game... But as an influent man, he can make understand to ffr and top14 clubs all the benefit to install more young french lads on the pitch.
As said before, if young french players are generally on skills basics, they can learn a lot on the physical aspect with foreign anglosaxon players who are training machines.

The Make it Great campaign for Microsoft Office 2010 features real people sharing what motivates them to "make it great" in their everyday lives and how Office 2010 helps them do it. To reach tech-savvy consumers always on the go, the Office marketing team added Microsoft Tag to some of their magazine advertising. Scanning the print Tags with smartphones took readers to custom mobile sites where they could view videos, learn about product features, and sign up for a free trial of Office 2010.
The Office team wanted to see if this print-to-mobile approach would increase customer response and, ultimately, purchase intent. For the pilot study, the Office team placed Make it Great ads targeting tech-savvy parents in six publications during Fall 2010. Each placement contained a custom Tag that identified the ad and publication and provided the consumer with a specific mobile experience.
The results exceeded expectations. Tag-driven consumers were more engaged on the mobile site and twice as likely to view the videos as those coming from mobile banner ads.
In addition, Tag's reporting features enabled the Office team to track consumer activity by individual ad and publication, so they could determine which marketing messages resonated best and which publications generated the most follow-through insights not usually available through print advertising alone. One surprising result: Lifestyle magazines produced better results (more scans) than computer and business publications.
"Tag is helping us solidify our audiences and do better targeting for future campaigns. We found that Tag added to the curiosity of the print ad and added a new level of interest," says Adelheid Kutscher, senior advertising manager for Microsoft Office 2010.
Based on the success of the initial campaign, the Office marketing team fine-tuned its mobile marketing strategy and decided that the final round of magazine ads for the Make it Great campaign in Spring 2011 would all contain Tags, including additional lifestyle publications.
"When we stopped the ads last fall, both readers and our colleagues wanted to know, 'Where did the Tags go?'" says Kutscher. "So clearly, they were engaged and the Tags were having an impact."

DOE Proposes Rule Under Section 133 of the Energy Independence and Security Act
November 2, 2011
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) under Section 133 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA). The NOPR focuses on Section 133 of EISA, which directs DOE to allocate credits to covered fleets that acquire various types of electric drive vehicles, and that invest in emerging technologies related to those vehicles, qualified alternative fuel infrastructure, and nonroad equipment.
Some of the vehicles Section 133 identifies meet the Energy Policy Act (EPAct) definition of AFV already and so are entitled to credit. DOE proposes credit allocations for covered fleets that acquire Section 133�identified vehicles that do not already qualify as AFVs, and for fleets that make the qualified investments.
DOE proposes the following credit allocation levels under the program�s Standard Compliance mechanism for vehicles that do not otherwise qualify as AFVs:
- Hybrid electric vehicle: one-half credit
- Plug-in electric drive vehicle: one-half credit
- Fuel cell electric vehicle: one-half credit
- Neighborhood electric vehicle: one-fourth credit.
Read the full notice of proposed rulemaking in the October 31, 2011, Federal Register.
DOE invites the public to participate by commenting on the NOPR. Learn more about the NOPR and how to comment on it in the proposed rulemaking fact sheet.
DOE's Vehicle Technologies Program manages several transportation regulatory activities established by the Energy Policy Act of 1992.

UPMC Newborn Medicine Program and Children's Hospital's Transport Team with Dr. Melissa Riley
KDKA Morning News with Larry Richert and John Shumway (10/22/14)
The UPMC Newborn Medicine Program provides comprehensive multidisciplinary state-of-the-art care for critically ill newborns throughout the Greater Pittsburgh area and beyond. Our Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) are located at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC, UPMC Mercy, and UPMC Hamot in Erie, Pa. In addition, we provide multidisciplinary inpatient care at The Children's Home & Lemieux Family Center in the Lawrenceville area of Pittsburgh. For more information about each of our individual inpatient units, please visit the Neonatal Intensive Care Units page. There also are active outpatient programs with our Neonatal Follow-Up Clinics and the Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment Center.
We see and treat infants of all gestational ages with life-threatening medical emergencies and congenital malformations. Each of our NICUs features a full complement of specially trained physicians, neonatal nurse practitioners, nurses, respiratory therapists, and support staff. Neonatologists provide and supervise around-the-clock care at all units. In addition to neonatologists, experts in pediatric medicine and pediatric surgery are available at any time. Our physicians are experts in managing state-of-the-art therapies for critically ill infants, including the use of inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO), Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO), and induced Whole Body Hypothermia.
There are active transport programs at both Children's Hospital and Magee-Womens Hospital, with teams available 24 hours a day for the transport of critically ill infants. A neonatologist on call is always available to make arrangements for patient transfers and telephone consultation regarding stabilization prior to transfer. Neonates transferred to any one of our units are cared for by the same group of neonatologists, who are all members of the UPMC Newborn Medicine Program, which is part of the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
Communication on the progress of newborns is provided to the family and referring physicians on an ongoing basis to maintain continuity of care in preparation for discharge. Our focus is to provide the best patient care while meeting the needs of the entire family. Our staff is sensitive to the family and the developmental needs of the infant.
Tantamount to the superior clinical care are two other goals that the UPMC Newborn Medicine Program embraces: commitment to cutting-edge research and providing exceptional medical education and training. We take pride in contributing to one of the fastest growing pediatric research programs in the United States. Our basic science research physicians are expanding our understanding of many common neonatal disease processes while exploring innovative therapies for treatment. Our clinical research physicians are participating in many multicenter studies: studies vital to solving many of today's health challenges, helping to improve the safety and efficacy of current treatments, and investigating promising new therapies and interventions.
The Department of Pediatrics is committed to maintaining the finest medical education and training programs in the health care industry. As part of that mission, the division actively participates in the education of medical students from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. We also offer a comprehensive three-year fellowship program in Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine that combines rigorous clinical training with a mentored research experience. Our educational goals are to help nurture students and create physicians who are science-based, skilled, and compassionate clinicians prepared to meet the challenges of practicing medicine in the ever-changing 21st century.
Referral Requirements
Emergency referrals, transport, transfer coordination, and consultation can be obtained 24 hours a day. For emergency referrals, the Communications Center at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC, a pediatric emergency dispatch system, coordinates all interfacility transports and can be reached by calling 412-692-5000. Consultation with a neonatologist on call can be obtained by calling Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC at 412-692-5325.
Referrals are required from primary care physicians or other Children's Hospital specialty services. Referrals for patients enrolled in managed care insurance plans also may require authorization from the insurance provider and primary care physician.

|Feasibility Study Committee Holds Second Meeting
|Written by Mike Flynn
|Wednesday, 16 February 2011 14:23
Appalachian State University's athletics feasibility study committee convened for the second time on Monday, Feb. 14 at the Appalachian Athletics Center.During Monday's meeting, committee members received reports from three forums held with select focus groups on Friday, Feb. 11. The initial focus groups, which met with representatives from Collegiate Consulting LLC and ASU athletics, were comprised of campus and community leaders, student leaders and the Yosef Club Advisory Board.
The purpose of forming focus groups is to inform key ASU athletics stakeholders about the data being collected and receive feedback from those constituents to share with the committee. Additional focus groups will be assembled as the study moves forward in the coming months.
Subcommittees also met on Monday and shared updates with the entire committee. Five subcommittees have been formed to delve deeper into the issues most critical to the athletics feasibility study — revenue, expenses, facilities, NCAA matters and effects and desires of the ASU family.
"Monday's meeting was a productive one and I feel like we are making great progress in collecting and analyzing data to make the best recommendation possible to Chancellor Peacock," committee co-chairman G.A. Sywassink said.
"It was especially valuable to hear reports from the focus groups and receive their feedback," Sywassink continued. "A primary concern of members of the focus groups was the notion that financial investments in athletics can negatively affect the University as a whole. No matter what the final recommendation of this committee is, it is critical that stakeholders understand that athletics receives no state funding. We look forward to hearing reports from additional focus groups in the future and continue to address the concerns of the Appalachian family during this critical junction in the history of the University."
Appalachian's athletics feasibility study committee convened for the first time on January 18 and is charged with analyzing data collected by Collegiate Consulting LLC (formerly NACDA Consulting), developing a final report based on the analysis and making a recommendation to ASU Chancellor Dr. Kenneth E. Peacock. The recommendation is expected to be presented to Chancellor Peacock this summer. The Chancellor will then make his own recommendation to ASU's Board of Trustees, who must approve any change in Appalachian's conference or football subdivision affiliations.
A member of NCAA Division I since 1971, the Mountaineers currently participate the Southern Conference. In football, ASU and the SoCon compete in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly Division I-AA).

Author's Conclusions
Clinical/Scientific Implications
Dr. Hainsworth presented the results of two trials examining multi-drug combinations of targeted therapies for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. These data illustrate a number of important points. First, many clinicians have the incorrect idea that targeted therapies are always well tolerated, especially when compared with cytotoxic chemotherapy. At least with the second trial (the 3 drug regimen), the rates of grade 3 or 4 toxicity were quite high. It appears that if one adds together enough of these biologic agents, one can come up with a fairly toxic regimen.
The second important point to take away from these data is that simply because something "makes sense" in a laboratory setting, does not mean it will translate well to the clinic, in a human population. The logic behind adding imatinib to the other two drugs is certainly sound, but in practice it did not appear to change outcomes. Perhaps we need to learn more about exactly what these compounds do, and how various cellular pathways affect one another when inhibited, before we can be optimally "rational" about our drug design. Imatinib is an excellent drug for CML, but at least in the way it was prescribed here, it did not significantly improve outcome. Furthermore, given the added cost of this agent, the 3-drug combination is likely going to be shelved (at least for now). However, the preliminary results of the bevacizumab/erlotinib trial are certainly quite interesting, and there is little doubt that further research will eventually validate these findings.

Jets Return to the Facility After Storm-Lengthened Layoff
Players returned to the facility yesterday for the first time in a week after dealing with the same afflictions that many in the NY metropolitan area have according to Kristian Dyer in Metro.
"You have to make sure you take care of your family; that's first and foremost, obviously. Yourself probably second and this team third," Ryan said yesterday. "Our organization does a tremendous job of helping our players any way they possibly can, but in this situation our players are no different than anybody else in the community, and that's the way it should be. And those are things everybody in the area have to deal with, and our players aren't exempt from that."
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.com
I admit that I was frustrated the team didn't require them to come back late in the week after the abysmal loss that the Jets had to the Dolphins, but maybe this will act as a reset button all the same. Now that they've been away, watching everything that's been going on, maybe the coaches and players will be able to focus on football and somehow keep the narrow margin at bay over the next two months.
Still, it sounds like the Jets players are grateful for the grace that the team gave them to deal with the storms instead of keeping them at the facility last week. According to Dyer, Mike DeVito told him that "[t]he team did the right thing closing it down and making sure we were able to take care of ourselves. We're just happy to be back though."

CoachTonyVan D's on vacation this week, so check out our guest blogger, Shawnie D!
One of my favorite things to do is to run with colleagues over my lunch hour. There are days when I feel like I accomplished more during my thirty-minute run than my eight hours at work that same day. I find that I am more honest, direct, and open-minded when having a conversation while running outside versus in a meeting room in the office.

Roland has included an advanced sound engine, revolutionary ARX SuperNATURAL> expansion bay, large-sized color LCD, powerful new audio/MIDI sequencer, first-class "Ivory Feel" weighted keys and more to the Fantom-G8.
Advanced Sound Engine
Driven by a powerful new audio processor, the Roland Fantom-G provides new sonic depth and versatility. With twice the wave-ROM capacity of its predecessor, it contains a treasure trove of Roland's world-famous SRX-quality sounds, but what really sets this instrument apart is its new ARX expansion, which allows additional SuperNATURAL sound-sets and fully dedicated synth and effects engines to be added to this already powerful live workstation.
SuperNATURAL ARX Expansion

A mouse can be also incorporated for computer-like speed and ease. Other convenient features include combo XLR and TRS connector, phantom power for condenser mics, Hi-Z input for guitar and bass, and line input.
Luxurious Extra-Wide LCD
One look and touch and you'll know that the Fantom-G is an instrument without equal. Only the highest-quality materials have been used to create this dream synth, with a stylish, futuristic design that will turn heads. Front and center is the extra-large 8.5" wide TFT color LCD for enhanced productivity. A first-class assortment of hands- on controls is provided as well, including eight sliders, four knobs, and ten buttons below the LCD.
Amazing FX
Fantom-G is loaded with a state-of-the-art effects engine, with multi-effects available for each Fantom-G sound/part. In 16-part multi-timbre mode, up to 22 effect routings can be used simultaneously. Create complex setups with 16 insert effects per multitimbral patch group, plus global reverbs and choruses. Mastering effects are provided for polishing songs created with the onboard sequencer.
Supreme Keyboard Feel & Action
The Fantom-G8 is outfitted with Roland's top-of-the-line PHA II "Ivory Feel" keyboard. This amazing keyboard technology reproduces the real surface feel of ivory acoustic piano keys providing a familiar stability and comfort to the pianist. The white keys have a two-piece structure which reduces the developed keyboard surface material is designed to absorb moisture, ensuring a secure, slip-proof feel that your fingers will love.

Comments about Roland FANTOM-G8 Workstation:
I have a fantom g and I like my keyboard so much! In all honestly I couldn't see how Roland could create a keyboard that sound better than the fantom x series, but they have. I had the opportunity to play on $100,000 acoustic piano when I took lessons. And, I must say that the fantom G have great sounding piano with good tuning feature if you need them. I don't have to use the tuning feature because most of the piano sounds are dead on center accurate. And, it is so many that it could take hours to just demo all of them. The bass guitars and drum kits are great as well. As a studio musician I have had the opportunity to own and play Yamaha keyboards and pianos as well as other brand. But, I cannot live without my Roland. When you have a great sounding keyboard that has multi-track audio and midi sequencing capabilities as the fantom g your creativity flows smoothly. As, for the software utility that comes with the keyboard it is good as well because if you working with a DAW like Pro Tools, Cubase, or Sonar, etc you can control all fantom g features as a software plug-in in your DAW program without ever touching the buttons. Go Roland if your looking for a complete workstation with DAW capabilities of multi-track audio or midi sequencing. You won't be sorry that you did!!!
Comments about Roland FANTOM-G8 Workstation:
I love this keyboard. I had a few issues after purchasing it, but they were caused by factory settings. After working through this, and I must mention that Tech Support was great, I am loving this board. There is so much to learn. Layering/adjusting volume levels on the fly is so fast and easy. Get this board, you will not be disappointed.
Comments about Roland FANTOM-G8 Workstation:
I have to admit that this instrument was way more than what I needed but have been quite impressed with all of its capabilities. Being a classical musician, I thought it would be more fun to have alot of the bells and whisles that are on this unit. However, the sounds are quite good....yes, you can find various sounds elswhere that are better for specific uses. However, overall you should have no trouble finding or programing what you need with ease on this board. It has been 10 years since owning a synth, and only having had this unit a day I am already easily navigating between modes, functions, and parameters---squencing songs--with ease, thanks to the awesome graphical interface on this unit. Value wise, this is a tought debate---yes this is a pricey board, but it can do anything you call on it with ease and it makes the overall experience a coherent and pleasing one. I suppose it's all in the eyes of the beholder...I love my Fantom G8....
Comments about Roland FANTOM-G8 Workstation:
So, overall this is a great keyboard. Well constructed. Most of the sounds are very good. The layout is more organized and user friendly. The piano sounds, believe it or not, are not great. I tweaked them a little and got some that I get by with, but the original sample was flawed. The most important sounds in a keyboard are the piano sounds and they should be much better than this. Other sounds that I use (like the Rhodes, Clav, String, Harp, Moog, etc.) are good. The computer software that comes with it is a joke. Not written by real programmers, and it doesn't do anything that you can't do on the keyboard. No benefit at all. I haven't used the mouse with it, but what's the point? The keyboard is still in a data-entry type format not a Windows format. Scrolling is still the best method. Still, its a keeper. Pretty decent keyboard.
Comments about Roland FANTOM-G8 Workstation:
When I bought it the first thing I recognized is it's size and weight (33 kg!).You can customize most of the func. buttons and D-Beam to do any thing. The performance fuctions(Live, Single, Studio), patch editors,Live Sampling and D-Beam Thecnology makes it way ahaead of it's rivals. If you are an piano player and looking for an actual "piano feel" keyboard, it's for you (for me). And for the negative parts: Some orchestral patches are not succesful. But with spending enough time with the Patch editors you may get what you like. The wieighted PHA II keys may not be suitable for every keyboard player. After all it's a great keyboard and will be "The Armada" of Roland Keyboard family.

- Put a layer of paper towels on a large baking sheet. Quarter, core, peel and slice the apples about 5mm thick and lay evenly on the baking sheet. Put paper towels on top and set aside while you make and chill the pastry.
- For the pastry, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until just mixed. Break in a whole egg and a yolk (keep the white for glazing later). Beat together for just under 1 min – it will look a bit like scrambled egg. Now work in the flour with a wooden spoon, a third at a time, until it's beginning to clump up, then finish gathering it together with your hands. Gently work the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film, and chill for 45 mins. Now mix the 140g/5oz sugar, the cinnamon and flour for the filling in a bowl that is large enough to take the apples later.
- After the pastry has chilled, heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Lightly beat the egg white with a fork. Cut off a third of the pastry and keep it wrapped while you roll out the rest, and use this to line a pie tin – 20-22cm round and 4cm deep – leaving a slight overhang. Roll the remaining third to a circle about 28cm in diameter. Pat the apples dry with kitchen paper, and tip them into the bowl with the cinnamon-sugar mix. Give a quick mix with your hands and immediately pile high into the pastry-lined tin.
- Brush a little water around the pastry rim and lay the pastry lid over the apples pressing the edges together to seal. Trim the edge with a sharp knife and make 5 little slashes on top of the lid for the steam to escape. (Can be frozen at this stage.) Brush it all with the egg white and sprinkle with caster sugar. Bake for 40-45 mins, until golden, then remove and let it sit for 5-10 mins. Sprinkle with more sugar and serve while still warm from the oven with softly whipped cream.

Comments, questions and tips
Works great cooked straight away or frozen and then defrosted before cooking. I used ready rolled pastry for quickness but had to roll thinner to have enough to line and top the tin. I used a cake tin with a removable bottom which worked really well. Goes well with ice-cream as we like apple pie a bit sweeter.
After my third bag of apples from my father in law i took the hint and made him this apple pie. I rolled the pastry between some cling film as it was very flakey and as previously suggested i added more cinnamon. The end result was a lovely light pastry with no soggy bottom. My father in law might have no teeth but the pie disappeared that day. Im waiting for my next delivery of apples.
Had some ready made sweet shortcrust pastry nearing its use by date and a free bag of apples from the man at the dump! Made this, added the extra cinnamon as recommended and a couple small handfuls of raisins. I didn't have quite enough pastry for a full top, so did a lattice. The family said it was the best apple pie they had had. It was so easy to do and it is now in my top 10 recipes of all time! Next time, I will make the pastry too.
Help! Where did it all go wrong?! I used large eggs and the pastry was wet and greasy looking. The pastry shrunk in the oven and it was gooey. :-( I just wanted to make scrummy apple pie but the pastry in this recipe just didn't work - twice! I used a pyrex glass dish does this have anything to do with it?

Minecraft Basketball still is an impressive, full-service piece of engineering, done by a group calling themselves the Farlanders. And for sports gamers who haven't played Minecraft, I think it perfectly explains the tone and point of the overall game as well as why so many people play it so compulsively. For once you can figure out how to assign teams (the most ingenious part of this, in my opinion) and build a scoreboard, the next stage is to construct a basketball hopper to keep feeding everyone the rock, and introduce some defense, and reset the game, and so forth.
Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson retweeted a link to this court, another endorsement of its quality. The creators note that some of the equipment used in the court isn't yet available in the latest official version of Minecraft, but it is in the most recent developer snapshot (a work-in-progress version of the game.) For those who wish to download it, you can grab it here.

After an eight hour search, police found and arrested the woman who allegedly kidnapped her baby from a Queens hospital. The baby was found safe.
Police said Leila Rajnarie took her 8-month-old daughter, Nevita Jagdeo, from Queens General Hospital Pediatric Center at approximately noon on Wednesday, March 14 while the infant was there with her foster mother. Rajnarie had accompanied them on the visit. She took the child while the foster mother and doctor were speaking in another room, police said.
Officers in the Patrol Bureau Queens South Task Force saw a woman fitting the description of the suspect in a livery cab in South Richmond Hill and pulled the vehicle over at approximately 8:40 p.m., police said.
After positive identification of the suspect and infant, Rajnarie was taken into custody and the baby was taken to a local hospital.
Rajnarie has been charged with kidnapping, custodial interference and endangering the welfare of a child.

Winter is approaching, and with it another flu season and a new round of propaganda about the dire consequences of "catching" the flu.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) uses a manufactured number of 36,000 annual deaths from seasonal flu in order to scare the masses into accepting a harmful chemical cocktail, all to the benefit of Big Pharma and the medical community. But all you've been told about flu deaths and the flu vaccines — in fact, about vaccines in general — is a lie.
In December 2005, Peter Doshi published a report in the British Medical Journal (online) stating that "U.S. data on influenza deaths are a mess." His research indicated the CDC uses the terms "flu death" and "flu associated death" interchangeably and that there were significant statistical incompatibilities between official estimates and national vital statistics data.
In fact, the CDC's numbers are a combination of influenza and pneumonia deaths. But as David Rosenthal, director of Harvard University Health Services, said: "People don't necessarily die, per se, of the [flu] virus—the viraemia. What they die of is a secondary pneumonia. So many of these pneumonias are not viral pneumonias but secondary [pneumonias]."
What Doshi found was that in 2001, influenza and pneumonia caused 62,034 deaths. Of those, 61,777 were attributed to pneumonia; only 257 were attributed to the flu. But in the 257 cases blamed on the flu, the flu virus was identified in only 18.
Doshi writes: "Between 1979 and 2001 [CDC] data show an average of 1,248 [flu] deaths per year (range 257 to 3,006)." This obviously is far less than the 36,000 figure used to frighten people into rushing to get a vaccination.
For a better idea of how vaccine-pushing researchers create numbers out of thin air, consider the recent announcement by an international team of researchers regarding deaths from the swine flu pandemic-that-wasn't in 2009. According to the World Health Organization, 18,500 people died worldwide as a result of swine flu. That's far short of the hundreds of thousands of deaths WHO warned about as the pandemic-that-wasn't first began.
The researchers published a study in the Lancet Infectious Diseases journal claiming an estimated 284,500 to 575,400 actually died of the disease. It provided no autopsy data for its claim, nor did it explain how family members of those 265,500 to 526,400 people failed to miss them for three whole years or what happened to all the bodies.
In addition to the inflated figures about the dangers of seasonal flu, the CDC also fails to mention that seasonal flu vaccines are ineffective 99 percent of the time. Two years ago, I wrote about a report by the independent research firm The Cochrane Library (TCL) that blew a big hole in the CDC/Big Pharma vaccine lie. Now, The Lancet has published a report that echoes TCL's report.
It showed that 2.7 percent of 13,000 unvaccinated adults caught the flu virus, while 1.2 percent of 13,000 vaccinated adults caught the virus. That means that the vaccine prevented only 1.5 of every 100 adults from getting sick.
Researchers also found that:
- The vaccine had no effect on hospital admissions or complication rates.
- Vaccine use did not affect the number of people hospitalized or working days lost.
- Reliable evidence on vaccine efficacy is thin, but there is evidence of widespread manipulation of conclusions (in fact, TCL's report is based mostly on pharmaceutical company-sponsored research that, when analyzed, still showed the vaccines didn't work as claimed).
- Vaccines do not affect the transmission of disease, even though their stated purpose is to reduce transmission of disease.
- In average conditions (which means a partially matching vaccine) and because the WHO has to guess which strain of flu will be most prevalent in the coming year, 100 people must be vaccinated to prevent one set of flu symptoms.
The CDC — as well as doctors and pharmacies, which get kickbacks on the vaccines and drugs they administer — also fails to divulge what harmful additives are found in vaccines and the side effects that can result.
Flu vaccines contain aluminum, formaldehyde and thimerosal. Side effects of the vaccines include narcolepsy, Guillain-Barre Syndrome and autism, plus a worsening of the flu's affects. British Columbia Centre for Disease Control researcher Dr. Danuta Skowronski conducted a trial study with 32 ferrets that showed that the symptoms in vaccinated animals were worse than those in unvaccinated animals.
"The findings were consistent with the increased risk that we saw in the human studies," Skowronski said.
Aluminum is added to vaccines to act as an immune adjuvant, which enhances the immune response — and thus boosts the immune system — or to make it react as intensely as possible for as long as possible. But aluminum has been linked to Parkinson's disease, ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) and Alzheimer's disease. Researchers have also found that vaccinations with aluminum-containing adjuvants could trigger the cascade of immunological events associated with autoimmune conditions, including chronic fatigue syndrome and macrophagic myofasciitis, a condition that resembles multiple sclerosis.
Formaldehyde is used to kill and preserve bacterial toxins and make viruses unable to replicate or reproduce themselves. It is listed as a carcinogen by government scientists and warnings are issued about formaldehyde exposure from fumes emanating from plywood and particle board and for workers exposed to it in funeral homes and hair salons. But formaldehyde and its chemical kin, formalin, is present in most vaccines.
Thimerosal is a preservative that allows vaccine makers to distribute their vaccines in multi-dose vials. Thimerosal contains 49.6 percent mercury by weight. But mercury is classified as a hazardous material that could cause death if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Mercury tends to accumulate in the brain; and it has been linked to cardiovascular disease, autism, seizures, mental retardation, hyperactivity, dyslexia and other nervous-system disorders.
And while doctors readily try to force — or at least coerce — vaccinations on their patients, half of them reject vaccinations for themselves because of concerns the vaccines may harm their health.
Of course, Big Pharma no longer has to concern itself about the health effects of its vaccines. Lawmakers have exempted them from liability, and the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled the laws shield vaccine makers from product-liability lawsuits that are filed in State courts and seek damages for injuries or death attributed to vaccines.
There is a much safer way to keep yourself disease-free. Take vitamin D3 (I take 30,000 IU daily and give my wife 20,000 IU) daily. It is a potent neuroregulatory steroidal hormone that influences nearly 3,000 of our 25,000 genes.
Besides, the germ theory of disease — that we "catch" the flu and other diseases by being exposed to people who are "contagious" — is a foolish hoax created by Louis Pasteur. Disease comes from within the body when it is overly fatigued with excess stress, toxins and malnutrition.
