Reporter: Craig Smith
PHOENIX (KGUN9-TV) - A proposed law to set up formal state warning of border dangers had border towns declaring the real danger was how it would scare off more business. Now they don't have to worry about that bill anymore. The bill's own sponsor has agreed to kill it.
Willcox State Representative Peggy Judd says the first time she saw a newspaper story about her bill she didn't even recognize the law she proposed.
"I saw the headline and I was like, I didn't even read it. I was like I am so gonna find out who wrote that bill and I'm gonna fix it monday morning. Or I'm gonna kill it Monday morning."
She says the bill was never meant to set up a border red zone. She says the legislature's lawyers added the boundaries. And it was never supposed to declare the area dangerous and issue general warnings, just set up e-mail warnings you'd have to subscribe to.
But border town mayors and business representatives said the system would scare away business and tourists when crime stats show border towns are actually quite safe.
Representative Judd promised to kill the bill if a majority in the meeting asked. The show of hands was not even close.
KGUN9 reporter Craig Smith asked Mogales Mayor Arturo Garino: " Your goal was to kill the bill and she was already leaning that may it seems." Garino said, "It looks like that was the case. But one of the things was there was no way that any amendment on the bill would have changed it because the intent is there. The message is there.
Smith asked Douglas Mayor Dr. Michael Gomez: "It looks like the bill itself was not this broad general warning, that it was a little more finely crafted for people who wanted to sign on. Would that have been less damaging?" Mayor Gomez says:" You know I don't know it would have been less damaging. The fact it came out and made so much public news is damaging already."
Representative Judd now concedes a border warning bill is inappropriate for well policed border towns. But she still thinks it might be a good idea for outlying areas. Even so she says there is no chance she's going to pass a law like that anytime soon because she is not standing for reelection. But members of that delegation that came to the State Capitol from Southern Arizona say they still have to be on the watch for other lawmakers passing laws that hurt the interests of border towns.

Elver fishermen and dealers will offer their ideas for reducing next season's catch at a key meeting this week with state fisheries regulators. Maine agreed to cut landings by between 25 and 40 percent in October. In exchange, the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission agreed to delay, for a year, the adoption of new rules to manage the suddenly lucrative elver fishery. As Jay Field reports, heavy harvesting and a depleted overall stock of juvenile American eels is driving worries about the long-term sustainability of the species.
Elvers have expoded in value. In 2010, Maine elver fishermen made an average of $185 a pound for their catch, which was sold to the Japanese as a delicacy. But the follwing spring, a tsunami tore through Japan, decimated Asian eel farms and turned the American market on its head. By 2012, that average price per pound went up - a lot - to $2,000. It dropped off a bit last year, but still topped out at as much as $1,700.
Patrick Keliher says don't expect the recent market dynamics to change anytime soon. "Based on indications that we've had from some of the larger dealers, who deal directly with overseas contacts in China and Korea, there seems to be an expansion of some eel farming in those countries," says Keliher, commissioner of Maine's Marine Resources Department.
He says that suggests that Asian demand for Maine-caught glass eels will continue to be high in 2014. "As long as the supply is wanted and the demand is as high as it's been, I don't see any major changes," Keliher says. "Some are indicating that the price may be higher next year."
State and federal regulators worry that continued strong demand for elvers in Asia will further deplete the fishery along the East Coast of the U.S. So the group that monitors the glass eel population along the East Coast has offered Maine and its fishermen a deal: Come up with ideas to reduce the next year's catch from a little over 18,000 to a little over 12,000 pounds, and put off, for a year, strict new rules to more tightly control elver harvesting.
Jeff Pierce, with the Maine Elver Fishermen's Association, says one idea that's certain to come up at a public meeting Wednesday in Augusta is the possibility of individual catch quotas. "Some of things with an individual quota - the guys who are really good fishermen aren't going to take a 33 percent cut. They'll be taking a 60 percent cut."
Pierce says really bad fishermen, meantime, could end up with a really high quota. "Just cause they have been in the fishery a long time doesn't mean they've ever caught that amount," he says.
Both Pierce and Commissioner Pat Keliher say they're eager to avoid moving to a derby-style system, where fishermen race up and down the coast trying to outfish each other. Keliher says he's eager to hear feedback on the idea of giving each elver fisherman a state-issued swipe card, "which will allow us to monitor the catch in real time and establish a hard quota."
What's unclear, though, is whether swipe cards would help solve another big problem affecting the industry: elver poaching. Keliher isn't holding his breath. "Until we can find a way to stop creating an incentive to sell illegally caught eels, then it will continue at some level," he says.
Ongoing tension between the state and the Passamaquoddy Tribe over elver fishing licenses is also likely to come up at Wednesday's meeting. Passamaquoddy leaders and state regulators are at odds over who should manage elver fishing in tribal waters.
But that's not the only dispute between the state and the tribe over glass eels. The Department of Health and Human Services is conducting a special welfare fraud investigation targeting 500 licensed Passamaquoddy elver fishermen.

President Barack Obama took $5,000 out of his own pockets to donate to his campaign.
Democrats admit that Republicans have raised more money and that Obama's re-election campaign has fallen behind in donations. The President gave on his own accord as a way to show that everyone needs to be willing to "pitch in."
"On its own, what I gave won't be enough to surmount the unprecedented fundraising we've seen on the other side, both from our opponent's campaign and from the outside groups and special interests supporting him," Obama wrote in an email to supporters. "But we have always believed that there's nothing we can't do when we all pitch in. That includes me."
Obama's $5,000 looks like a paltry sum compared to the funding dished out by Mitt and Ann Romney. Each donated $75,000 earlier in the year to the Romney Victory Fund.
Obama's video of his charitable deed has resulted in criticism. One commenter on POLITICO wrote, "This guy is free and loose with trillions, but makes a big deal over the 'symbolism' behind $5K? Well, like communists, socialists are all about symbolism and making a big show of how 'benevolent' the leaders can be."
Another reader aptly pointed out that the President's contribution is less than the price of the stylish jacket the first lady recently donned at Buckingham Palace.

POTSDAM The Good Times Party Store, 57 Market St., is closing.
Owner Nancy A. White said the store barely received enough business to allow her to pay the bills and did not receive enough money to restock its inventory.
Ms. White said most people choose to go to stores that allow one-stop shopping, such as Walmart and Dollar Tree, rather than going to a designated party store.

|The Dino football squad prepares for the season during the blue and white game held at Carbon High Aug. 16. This past weekend, the team kicked off the regular season on the road against Payson. The Dinos fell to Payson 17-7.
After several weeks of preparation, the Carbon High Dino football team took to the field to kick off the regular season. Their first game was contested this past Friday as the Dinos traveled to Payson to take on the Lions.
For the Dinos, this was the first game the team has played all year excluding the annual blue and white game which pits Dino vs Dino. This would be a game which players and coaches alike would come to know the strengths and weaknesses of this years Dino team.
Unfortunately for the Dinos, more weaknesses were discovered than strengths. According to coach Jeff Jorgensen, the Dinos struggled to make sparks fly during their opening game of the regular season.
"The kids just didn't play the way they have been coached. There were several coaching errors as well. We just need to clean up our errors and the team needs to play the way they've been taught," explained Jorgensen.
The mistakes made by Carbon ultimately cost the team their first win of the season. As the Dinos struggled through the game, the team found themselves trailing behind the Lions 17-7 at the conclusion of the contest.
Jorgensen feels that the overall effort of the team was weak. Jorgensen did however explain that Tyson O'Neil did step up and gave his best effort during the game in Payson.
O'Neil was a dominant force for the Dinos explained Jorgensen. After being injured early on in the ball game, O'Neil returned to compete strong.
The defense gave the Dinos a boost however, many mistakes were made and many improvements must take place before Friday's game.
"We need to step up. We did not play well in Payson and these errors must be corrected. We do have a young team. In fact, only five seniors started in Payson. Regardless, we need to improve and just play Carbon football" commented Jorgensen.
Carbon will play their first home game of the season this Friday. The team hopes to break in their new field with a victory against Uintah as action kicks off at 7 p.m.
The Dinos will use their first loss to their advantage as the team works out the bugs in their game plan. With experience comes knowledge, and the Dinos hope to have learned from their first season loss this year.
"We can beat Uintah. We will be playing before a packed house of Dino fans for the first time on this new field. In order to win we must play a lot better than we did last week. If we improve our game, we will win," concluded Jorgensen.

Please help with Asian watercolor
I was hoping someone could help me with the artist of a watercolor I have. I know there are tons of paintings out there that are nothing, but the quality of this one is better than most. I am not even sure about what country it's from. It is a large painting with the sight size being 37 x 22 inches. I have included a picture of the characters and the chop as well as of the whole picture. It is scroll mounted to a piece of wood. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Nice painting. I can't tell you much other than it doesn't look Japanese to me. The signature looks either Chinese or Korean. I can't really say which. IF it was Japanese the characters look older. Older means Meiji or older. Meiji ended in 1912. Not much information but I hope it helps.

This one was embarrassing by almost any standard.
Its one thing to get beat by a superior team. But to fall deficient in so many areas, as Watertown High School did during Friday nights 39-0 home defeat to Section Class A National foe New Hartford, was not acceptable to the Cyclones.
Watertown coach Vince Williams let his players know it in no uncertain terms after the debacle. If we dont practice harder this week and the next, we wont win a game the rest of the year, said a frustrated Williams. Carthage and Indian River (Watertowns next two opponents) will tear us apart if we show up and play like we did tonight.
There was plenty of blame to go around. But Williams focused his ire on the offensive and defensive lines, which gave the Cyclone backs no support on offense, and could not stop what had been just a mediocre New Hartford running game over the first two weeks of the season.
WHS managed just a net 16 yards on 22 rushing attempts, and that included eight plays for negative yardage.
The Cyclones tackling was, in Williamss word, atrocious.
When we watch it on film it will be disgusting, he said.
New Hartford gained 240 yards on the ground in 50 attempts, and scored four of its five touchdowns on runs.
New Hartford coach Todd Hobin was pleasantly surprised that his club dominated the line of scrimmage despite being much smaller than the Cyclones. Wed shown signs of getting better last week (as his club broke a 17-game losing streak against Oswego). But tonight the kids really showed me something.
Besides the lackluster line play, WHS was forced to play without starting quarterback Malik Evans. The junior transfer, who had started the first two games, was suspended from school and was not in uniform.
In his place, junior Jarrod Bellinger, who had been playing wide receiver, was thrust into the spotlight. He was chased around all night, completing just 9 of 27 passes for 91 yards and gaining 13 tough yards on 10 attempts.
Jarrod did just fine. He just didnt get much support, Williams said. Our line was blocking way too high and allowing their line to just get by them so easily. Sometimes football comes down to wanting it more than your opponent, and tonight we didnt seem to want it at all.
New Hartford (2-1) scored at the end of an 11-play, 91-yard drive late in the first quarter on Steve Tomainos 10-yard run.
Tomaino added an 11-yard scoring run in the final minute of the first quarter, and Mike Noles 1-yard TD run made it 19-0 early in the second quarter.
The Cyclones (1-2, 0-1) made it into Spartan territory only once in the first half, and were forced to punt six times while earning just three first downs.
The WHS defense actually played a little better to begin the second half. The Cyclones forced New Hartford to miss a 37-yard field goal on its first possession, and Jordan Salyers blocked a punt on the second possession.
But again, the WHS offense could not sustain anything. It went three and out on successive possessions, and New Hartford scored again when David Han took a short pass and turned it into a 70-yard score to make it 25-0 with five minutes left in the third quarter.
Troy Henderson tacked on a 1-yard TD run early in the fourth quarter, and Dustin Deon sped 24 yards for the final score five minutes later.
I liked how hard our backs ran today, Hobin said. Were trying to build something every week, and tonight was a nice step forward.
For Williams, trying to motivate his young team has been difficult.
Weve had some kids quit and others who weve tried to put into certain roles havent fit in, yet, he said. Youd think winning last week (over Fowler in the final minute) would have given us a lift. But it seems like we just went back to our old patterns in practice this week and it showed in tonights game.

Purchased this to use as a grab and go classic clutch. It's beautiful, but doesn't hold much. The size is good, but there isn't a gusset in bottom or side so that you can put a bit more in it. If it had that, I would keep it.

I gave two of these as gifts and both girls LOVED them. They are a good size without being too bulky. They look like they can fit quite a bit in there. Great quality and super classic style. Anyone would love this wristlet.

This is a great grab-and-go bag. It holds a cell, money, cards, medication, lipstick, and keys (if you don't have too many). I use it two ways: in my larger work bag to take out and use when I go shopping or to dinner during the week and as a purse/wallet on the weekends. The only improvement that I would make is to have small gussets to allow a bit more room, but that's my only suggestion--it is beautiful and fine the way that it is.

Naval Academy Midshipmen Spread Holiday Cheer
Posted on: December 14, 2013 08:00 EST by Naval Academy Public Affairs
Naval Academy midshipmen, faculty and staff donated an estimated $12,500 in holiday gifts to local children through the annual Giving Tree campaign.
More than 500 children in the Annapolis area will receive unexpected gifts this year.
The midshipmen of the Naval Academy's 6th Company organized the event, decorating the holiday tree in the Bancroft Hall rotunda with paper angel ornaments provided by the Salvation Army. Each angel bears the name and gender of a local child and a suggested gift for each. Naval Academy midshipmen, faculty and staff choose an ornament, purchase a gift for the child represented on the ornament and leave it unwrapped under the tree.
Suggested presents range from dolls, action figures and soccer balls to bicycles and electronics. The paper ornaments also include each child's pants, shirt and shoe size.
Elementary school students and teachers from the Naval Academy Primary School and alumni from the Class of 2000 also helped with the project this year. The Class of 2000 sponsors the sixth company and regularly attends football tailgates with the company along other events throughout the year.
"The brigade loves to participate in the Giving Tree because it is a way for us to connect with faculty, staff, and the community as a whole," said Midshipman 1st Class Michael Watrol of Rossford, Ohio. "In collaboration with the Salvation Army, we have been able to provide hope and smiles on Christmas morning for the past 23 years."

Lawrence "Larry" M. Neumeier passed away Sunday, Jan. 27, 2013 at his home in Henderson. He was born in Dragerton, the baby of 11 children. Throughout his life he has lived in Utah, Wyoming, and Nevada.
Larry was a 59-year-old Downs Syndrome male who throughout his life gave much love and humor to those he met. He never knew a stranger, everyone was somebody he knew or he thought they knew him from when he was little. Larry was a "HAM", a good dancer, an Elvis fan and had to be the star of the show. He was an avid sports fan, especially if it involved the New York Yankees or the Chicago Bears; he would take it personally if they lost. Larry was also a great bowler and had won many medals and trophies from Special Olympics to show for his love of the game.
Preceding Larry in death were his parents, Justin & Katie, sister, Mary Irene, and brothers, Justin J. and James K.
He is survived by siblings, Katie Redosh, Henderson, Nev., Jerry (Carol), St. George, Pat German, Moab, Sue (Bill) Huggins, Henderson, Nev., Doris (Frank) Miller, Wellington, Elizabeth (Keith) Justesen, Henderson, Nev., Peggy (Kent) Lindquist, Moab, numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews.
Private family services will be held at a later date.

What is the Vapage Difference?
Vapage is headquartered in southern California just north of Los Angeles. We are a leading manufacturer of Premium Electronic Cigarettes and Premium Vaping products the world over. Millions of people around the world are discovering a revolutionary new smoking alternative, the electronic cigarette by Vapage.
The Vapage product line was created with excellent user-experience being the paramount goal. We sought a way to make our product be something smokers could look forward to and truly enjoy, not just tolerate. We felt that if we made an e-cigarette that was simply tolerable, smokers would be much less likely to continue using e-cigarettes and would not re-purchase. Vapage was created, designed, engineered, and spec'd by true product developers and engineers here in the USA. We have invested heavily in the research and development of all our products to insure the end-user has the best vaping experience. We truly love bringing you the best possible product available.
Vapage has two goals as a central focus: to be the safest possible e-cigarette, and to provide the smoker with the best experience possible in any e-cigarette. We have achieved, and continue to improve upon, both of those goals. Enjoy your Vapage journey!

PAWTUCKET – There's cause for optimism regarding the boys' and girls' cross-country programs at Tolman High.
With both squads fielding extremely young squads this fall, meets like the one on Monday afternoon at Slater Park will serve as stepping stones for future seasons. The Tolman boys posted a 22-32 victory over Moses Brown, though dropped a 22-33 decision to East Providence.
As for the girls, the Tigers bowed to the Townies (25-32) and Quakers (20-37). Monday's gathering also included fellow city school Shea with the Raider boys falling to the Townies (20-39) and Quakers (25-31) with the girls sustaining a 17-44 loss to Moses Brown along with a 19-41 setback to E.P.
What had Tolman boys' head coach John Toth beaming with pride was the substantial step forward his runners took from when they last combed the Slater Park race trails a few weeks ago. Toth reported that just about every Tolman harrier who crossed the finish line ended up posting a lower time from the Sept. 16 meet at Slater Park.
"I have so many young kids and we're getting beat up pretty good, but it's a learning thing for them right now. I have 27 guys, but 20 of them are coming back," Toth pointed out after Tolman concluded with a 4-5 mark against Metro Division foes. "Seventeen of the 25 kids who ran here three weeks ago improved today, and that's awesome.
"At this stage, I'm not worried about how many meets we're going to win," Toth added. "I just want to see them improve. I'm pushing them hard every day, but it's fun. We're having a good time and they're getting better."
The Tigers did place three finishers in the top 10. Their top finisher was senior Oscar Urizar, who achieved bronze-medal status thanks to finishing one second ahead of Shea sophomore Robert Postle. The two Pawtucket-based runners were neck and neck as they neared the conclusion before Urizar quickened his pace at a most appropriate time.
A first-time distance runner, Urizar has proven a pleasant addition for Toth. Urizar ended up posting a time of 18:15.
"Oscar was a nice surprise coming out as a senior," said Toth. "The young kids are watching him and saying, 'I can get better, too.'"
Jonathan Consoli is another Tolman runner who Toth won't have back in 2014. The senior placed seventh Monday with a time of 18:30. Coming in eighth place was one of the Tigers' cause for optimism as sophomore Tyler Lentendre finished in 18:35.
The Tolman girls were led by Lisa Mongeau's time of 22:12, good for a fourth-place finish.
"I'm very happy with Lisa," said Tigers head coach Kayla Fleming after her girls lowered the curtain on a 2-8 performance against league opponents. "She's a senior this year and I've seen so much improvement over her four years."
If there ever was a sign that things are on the up swing, Fleming witnessed it as she watched two of her freshmen grab the ninth and 10th spots. Leinni Valdez was the ninth-place finisher with a time of 23:41 while twin sister Lisbeth was right behind at 23:42.
"They started a little later, so they haven't run the whole season," said Fleming about the Valdez sisters. "They were behind some of the other girls, but now they've jumped up to the second and third spots."
Toth and Fleming will take their respective teams down to the Big Apple this weekend to participate in the Manhattan Invitational. The week after that, the Tigers will head to Burrillville Middle School for the Bronco Invitational.
"I'm taking six girls (down to New York)," said Fleming.
Added Toth, "I want to continue to show the kids what hard work is all about. We're going to see a ton of kids this weekend and it's going to be an experience."

LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) — A busy day of earnings reports across the health-care sector Tuesday offered good news in general for the companies involved, but a couple firms missed out on a recovery rally as their results raised a few eyebrows on Wall Street.
Most notable was Edwards Lifesciences Corp. US:EW Its stock ended the day down nearly 7%, even though the company beat fourth-quarter earnings and sales estimates, and offered a 2013 outlook that was in line with Street predictions. Shares finished down $6.31 to $86.75.
Investors cooling to Vietnam
For a decade, Vietnam was the fastest-growing economy in Asia. Now, bad policies and political instability have turned foreign investors off to this Southeast Asian country.
At issue, some analysts speculated, were concerns that strong sales of its transcatheter valves leaned too heavily on revenue from care providers replenishing their inventories. Sales of the valves grew nearly 73% during the quarter, Edwards said, and are expected to grow by 45% year over year during 2013.
"But the benefit from stocking orders will reverse and become a drag in the second half of 2013, and growing competition in Europe offers another challenge," Wunderlich Securities analyst Greg Simpson wrote in a note.
Other analysts felt that perspective was shortsighted. Spencer Nam of Janney Capital Markets said that each Edwards valve costs $30,000 and that it doesn't take long to meet revenue projections. Plus, there is pent-up demand for the devices.
"The skeptics appear to ignore the fact that there is a pent-up demand for [heart valves] in the U.S. market," Nam wrote in a note. "They cite [third-quarter] and [fourth-quarter] weaknesses as reasons for this skepticism, when in fact [the third quarter] should be viewed as an outlier and [the fourth quarter] included ramp-up of new patient population."
Edwards said net income was $91.1 million, or 77 cents a share, for the period, compared with $63.1 million or 53 cents a share for the same period a year ago. Sales were $510.5 million against last year's $430.2 million.
Adjusted earnings were 90 cents a share, while analysts polled by FactSet had expected 77 cents a share. Sales were projected to come in at $500 million.
Meanwhile, HCA Inc. US:HCA hovered around the break-even point before ending the session slightly down to $37.51. The company's doubtful accounts grew during the quarter, and now look as they'll take a bite out of 2013 earnings.
The Nashville, Tenn.-based hospital operator said those accounts, or the percentage of care it was unlikely to be compensated for, topped the $1 billion mark, at $1.1 billion, and was 11.6% of revenue during the quarter. That's up from the $660 million reported a year ago, which was 7.8% of revenue.
HCA now is estimating 2013 adjusted earnings of $3 to $3.30 a share, while the FactSet estimate stood at $3.51 before the release of Tuesday's earnings report.
Net income was $314 million, or 68 cents a share, compared with $1.94 billion or $4.25 a share for the year-ago quarter. Revenue, excluding doubtful accounts, was $8.43 billion against last year's $7.77 billion.
HCA's adjusted earnings were 91 cents a share, ahead of a consensus estimate of 82 cents from analysts polled by FactSet, who also predicted sales of $8.06 billion.
Earnings for drug maker Allergan Inc. US:AGN biotech firm Gilead Sciences Inc. US:GILD insurer Centene Corp. US:CNC and drug distributor Cardinal Health Inc. US:CAH all came in line with expectations, and so all four got a lift from the day's market rally.
Allergan's adjusted earnings of $1.21 a share were 2 cents ahead of the FactSet prediction, while sales of $1.48 billion were slightly below the $1.51 billion forecast. The company's estimate of 2013 earnings was $4.75 to $4.83 a share, ahead of the $4.74 a share analyst forecast.

By RICHARD SHAWEmery County Progress publisher
Editor's Note: This is one of a series of articles about the history of the Sun Advocate and the county it covers as a newspaper. These articles are being prepared in commemoration of the 120th anniversary of the newspaper's birth in 1891.
The year began with six burglaries taking place in the period of only a few days in mid-January. The burglaries took place at Price Elementary, the Carbon Board of Education office, Wellington Elementary, Price Auto Parts, Shamrock Drug and Intermountain Farmers. While items and money were taken during the burglaries (around $2,000 worth), the biggest problem came from the mess the perpetrators made, particularly at the school district office. Entry in all the burglaries was made through broken windows. Police actually rounded up four suspects not long after the burglaries took place, all of them juveniles. But still the Price Police had restrictions going for the town that anyone under 18 years of age on the streets after 10 p.m. would be stopped and questioned.
On March 8, a ground breaking was held for the new Huntington Power Plant in Huntington Canyon. The 430,000 kilowatt plant was planned to come on-line within four years. Throughout the year stories were run about the construction of the plant, but of great interest to many were the stories that provided information about environmental protections the plants would have.
A brush fire in early April nearly burned into the town of Hiawatha. That fire, with another burning east of Price, taxed the city fire departments in the area. Price was unable to respond because of the pasture fire that was already very large, so units from Helper responded. Miners who left their jobs and others came to the area to help the Helper fire fighters start to hold the fire back. Later the Price department, with their fire out, responded and the fire was stopped just short of the edge of the small mining community.
In April voters turned down a leeway tax proposal that had been put forth by the Carbon School District for further funds to operate and maintain schools in the district. The "no new taxes" drive throughout the state that year affected the vote and every precinct voted against the proposal.
In May of 1971, before seniors could even graduate from Carbon High, the Carbon Education Association and the Carbon School board were able to settle negotiations for the coming school year. This was distinctly unlike the three years before in which only one, 1970, were students able to start school at the scheduled time, and that by a hair. The district agreed to give teachers who taught in the 1971-72 school year a 5 percent raise.
In a case stemming from a murder in late 1970, Billy Ray Michaelson was sent to the Utah State Hospital for treatment instead of going to prison for causing the death of Earl Smith. Smith was run over by Michaelson, as he used the car as a murder weapon. His reasons for running over Smith is that he believed that the man was part of a communist conspiracy to take over the United States. Both Texas natives the two had been in Utah hunting. When they decided to switch drivers Smith walked around the front of the car and Michaelson hit the accelerator and dragged Smith several feet before running completely over him and then drove onto New Mexico. He was arrested there after being involved in another car accident and police discovering that he was wanted in Utah for the murder.
Vietnam again appeared in the headlines as another young man from the area lost his life in the conflict in June. Private First Class Dee Bergera of Helper was killed in action near Da Nang after triggering a mechanical explosive device while returning from to a night defensive position.
Another Helper resident lost his life to a gunshot in July, but this wasn't from war. Larry Hribar, who was 19, was accidentally shot while working at a Helper service station on July 11. Friends who came to visit him while he was working were passing around a pistol that they were examining and it went off with the .22 caliber bullet striking Hribar in the head. Hribar died before professional medical help could arrive.
Another accidental firing of a rifle killed a Price boy in Novermber. Nine year old Alan Young was hit in the base of the skull when his brothers while trying to dislodge a jammed cartridge from a 30-06 set the rifle off. The bullet actually went through a sofa and through a wall before striking the boy.
In August, four California residents died when the aircraft they were flying in crashed in mountains five miles southeast of Scofield. The plane was reported missing when it was not returned to an airport in Santa Paula, Calif. where it had been leased to be used for a few days. Checks of records revealed that the last place the plane had landed was at the Carbon County Airport, where the pilot told an attendant they had flown up from the Grand Canyon and were headed to Salt Lake City. Those who died included two adults and two of their children. Two other children did not make the trip.
In September, Carbon County finally got the go ahead to purchase the old Job Corps training site, 110 acres of land and buildings that had been used during the 1960s to house underprivileged young men while they were in training programs. The county paid $42,500 to the General Services Administration for the property.
Area pilots and ground crews spent time in November searching for a "pilotless jet" that was being flown along the Wasatch Front by the military. The search was suspended for a few days but a forest ranger from Spanish Fork reported that he saw a plane that fit the description of the craft flying toward Soldier Summit from Thistle the day it was lost. The plane went on its own into unknown territory when the pilot was accidentally ejected from the plane and it flew off course over the Wasatch Mountains. The plane was valued at $3 million.
In December, and study by Utah State University showed just how much the completion of I-70 across the San Rafael Swell had damaged the tourist dollars spent in Carbon County and how much it had helped Sevier County. Spending by tourists in Carbon slumped from a high of $1,150,000 to $274, 100 in the 1970-1971 year. In Sevier County, particularly spending in Salina, jumped dramatically. Spending there went from $905,300 to $1,699,40.

Six hundred eighty two patients with T2-T4 and any N status, squamous cell carcinoma of anus were randomized to:
Patients were stratified by gender, size of the tumor, and nodal status.
Given the significant OS benefit of 5FU+mitomycin with concurrent RT over cisplatin based chemoRT, 5FU+mitomycin with RT remains the standard of treatment for anal cancer.
Clinical and Scientific Implications:
In this study, 5FU/cisplatin chemotherapy was given neoadjuvantly for two months before concurrent chemoRT was started. It is possible that the there is no benefit in 5FU/cisplatin because of the delay in the concurrent chemoRT. May be we need a fair comparison of treatment schemes to actually rule out cisplatin completely?
We should continue to look at other strategies to improves outcomes, namely, IMRT to allow for dose escalation, early salvage therapy and novel biologic agents.
Mitomycin + 5FU concurrent with radiation remains the standard of care for treatment of anal cancer.

Loan Repayment Assistance Program
William & Mary Law School's Loan Repayment Assistance Program assists graduates, beginning with the Class of 2004, who work for government agencies, 501(c)(3) organizations, or other nonprofit organizations as described below. Assistance is in the form of annual interest-bearing loans which are forgiven if the recipient satisfies all program requirements and remains in qualifying employment. The program consists of the following funds:
The John Levy Loan Repayment Fund, established in honor of Professor Emeritus John Levy for his lifelong commitment to public service and his distinguished career safeguarding the rights of the unrepresented and underrepresented.
The Ernest W. Goodrich Law Public Service Endowment, established through a bequest by Mr. Goodrich, a 1935 William & Mary graduate who practiced law in Surry, Virginia, for nearly 60 years, and served as president of the Law School Association and Rector of the William & Mary Board of Visitors.
The Richard and Laurie Bellinger Loan Repayment Assistance Endowment, established by the Bellingers, friends of the Law School, to encourage and assist graduates to take positions of high social value.
The R. William Arthur Loan Repayment Assistance Endowment, established by Dorothy Ellett Arthur in memory of her husband, The Honorable R. William Arthur, William & Mary Law Class of 1940, a highly respected lawyer and jurist in Wytheville, Virginia, who devoted much of his career to public service.
The Gregory A. Presnell Loan Repayment Assistance Fund, provided by The Honorable Gregory A. Presnell, U.S. District Judge, who earned his undergraduate degree from William & Mary in 1964.
The William & Mary Public Service Fund, a student organization that raises money for loan repayment and summer public service fellowships.
Eligible applicants will:
- have an annual salary of $58,000 or less for first-time applicants (the salary cap increases to $61,000 for an applicant in the second year of assistance and $63,000 in the third year); and
- be working full-time for a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, legal aid office, prosecutor, public defender, government agency, JAG Corps, or legislative office. Organizations outside the U.S. qualify if they would have 501(c)(3) status if they were a U.S. organization. Partisan political organizations, partisan political work, lobbying, and judicial clerkships are not eligible.
A maximum of $5,000 in loan forgiveness will be awarded annually per recipient. Each recipient will be eligible for up to $15,000 ($5,000 per year for three calendar years).
Selection criteria include the applicant's commitment to public service, type of work, salary, law school loan debt, personal statement, locale cost of living, and financial circumstances.
The Loan Repayment Assistance Program Application and the Loan Repayment Assistant Program Recertification Form for the following calendar year will be available around November 15 on the law school's Symplicity system. If you do not have access to Symplicity, complete this form. The application deadline is mid-January.
Non-William & Mary Loan Repayment Resources
Federal, state, and employer-based loan repayment programs operate independently of William & Mary's. Equal Justice Works provides an overview of some of these programs and offers debt relief webinars and other resources. Heather Jarvis, a nationally-recognized expert on education debt relief, offers loan repayment information via webinars, a blog, and other resources.

Check this one out.
Hi All,
SUSE LINUX 10.0 (i586) OSS
If you open Yast Control Center, then click installation source, then click
"add" and select "HTTP" or "FTP" what do you put in the "Server Name" and
"Directory On Server" fields? I'm sure it's some mirror server or
something, but can find nothing to piont me in the right direction.
LinuxVillage - The truely community run Linux/Floss forum !
No IT BS !!
Here are some of the ones I use. To save a little time (if you haven't already figured it out) don't add a trailing slash to the servername & domain or you will have 2 of them.
For example, in the first line above choose the http radio button and type in just "ftp.opensuse.org" in the Server Name text box then "pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source" in the Directory on Server box.
Naturally adjust the name for your version number if not 10.0
Hope this helps, J.May

Top-level domain
A top-level domain (TLD) is one of the domains at the highest level in the hierarchical Domain Name System of the Internet.[1] The top-level domain names are installed in the root zone of the name space. For all domains in lower levels, it is the last part of the domain name, that is, the last label of a fully qualified domain name. For example, in the domain name www.example.com, the top-level domain is com. Responsibility for management of most top-level domains is delegated to specific organizations by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which operates the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), and is in charge of maintaining the DNS root zone.
Originally, the top-level domain space was organized into three main groups: Countries, Categories, and Multiorganizations.[2] An additional temporary group consisted of only the initial DNS domain, arpa,[3] and was intended for transitional purposes toward the stabilization of the domain name system.
IANA today distinguishes the following groups of top-level domains:[4]
- country-code top-level domains (ccTLD): Two-letter domains established for countries or territories. With some historical exceptions, the code for any territory is the same as its two-letter ISO 3166 code.
- internationalized country code top-level domains (IDN ccTLD): ccTLDs in non-Latin character sets (e.g., Arabic or Chinese).
- Test IDN TLDs were installed under test for testing purposes in the IDN development process.
- generic top-level domains (gTLD): Top-level domains with three or more characters
- unsponsored top-level domains: domains that operate directly under policies established by ICANN processes for the global Internet community.
- sponsored top-level domains (sTLD): These domains are proposed and sponsored by private agencies or organizations that establish and enforce rules restricting the eligibility to use the TLD. Use is based on community theme concepts.
- infrastructure top-level domain: This group consists of one domain, the Address and Routing Parameter Area (ARPA). It is managed by IANA on behalf of the Internet Engineering Task Force for various purposes specified in the Request for Comments publications.
Countries are designated in the Domain Name System by their two-letter ISO country code;[5] there are exceptions, however (e.g., .uk). This group of domains is therefore commonly known as country-code top-level domains (ccTLD). Since 2009, countries with non–Latin-based scripts may apply for internationalized country code top-level domain names, which are displayed in end-user applications in their language-native script or alphabet, but use a Punycode-translated ASCII domain name in the Domain Name System.
Generic top-level domains (formerly Categories) initially consisted of gov, edu, com, mil, org, and net. More generic TLDs have been added, such as info.
The authoritative list of currently existing TLDs in the root zone is published at the IANA website at https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/.
Internationalized country code TLDs[edit]
An internationalized country code top-level domain (IDN ccTLD) is a top-level domain with a specially encoded domain name that is displayed in an end user application, such as a web browser, in its language-native script or alphabet, such as the Arabic alphabet, or a non-alphabetic writing system, such as Chinese characters. IDN ccTLDs are an application of the internationalized domain name (IDN) system to top-level Internet domains assigned to countries, or independent geographic regions.
ICANN started to accept applications for IDN ccTLDs in November 2009,[6] and installed the first set into the Domain Names System in May 2010. The first set was a group of Arabic names for the countries of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. By May 2010, 21 countries had submitted applications to ICANN, representing 11 scripts.[7]
IDN test domains[edit]
In the process of testing internationalized top-level domains, ICANN implemented a set of IDN top-level domains that are translations of the name example.test into various languages in their respective scripts.
|DNS name
|Simplified Chinese
|Traditional Chinese
These testing domains were terminated on 31 October 2013.[8]
Infrastructure domain[edit]
The domain arpa was the first Internet top-level domain. It was intended to be used only temporarily, aiding in the transition of traditional ARPANET host names to the domain name system. However, after it had been used for reverse DNS lookup, it was found impractical to retire it, and is used today exclusively for Internet infrastructure purposes such as in-addr.arpa for IPv4 and ip6.arpa for IPv6 reverse DNS resolution, uri.arpa and urn.arpa for the Dynamic Delegation Discovery System, and e164.arpa for telephone number mapping based on NAPTR DNS records. For historical reasons, arpa is sometimes considered to be a generic top-level domain.
Reserved domains[edit]
RFC 6761 reserves the following four top-level domain names to avoid confusion and conflict.[9] Any such reserved usage of those TLDs should not occur in production networks that utilize the global domain name system:
- example: reserved for use in examples
- invalid: reserved for use in obviously invalid domain names
- localhost: reserved to avoid conflict with the traditional use of localhost as a hostname
- test: reserved for use in tests
In addition, RFC 6762 reserves the use of .local for link-local host names that can be resolved via the Multicast DNS name resolution protocol.[10]
Historical domains[edit]
In the late 1980s InterNIC created the nato domain for use by NATO. NATO considered none of the then existing TLDs as adequately reflecting their status as an international organization. Soon after this addition, however, InterNIC also created the int TLD for the use by international organizations in general, and persuaded NATO to use the second level domain nato.int instead. The nato TLD, no longer used, was finally removed in July 1996.
Other historical TLDs are cs for Czechoslovakia (now using cz for Czech Republic and sk for Slovak Republic), dd for East Germany (using de after reunification of Germany), yu for SFR Yugoslavia (now using ba for Bosnia and Herzegovina, hr for Croatia, me for Montenegro, mk for Macedonia, rs for Serbia and si for Slovenia), and zr for Zaire (now cd for Democratic Republic of the Congo). In contrast to these, the TLD su has remained active despite the demise of the Soviet Union that it represents.
Proposed domains[edit]
Around late 2000 when ICANN discussed and finally introduced[11] aero, biz, coop, info, museum, name, and pro TLDs, site owners argued that a similar TLD should be made available for adult and pornographic websites to settle the dispute of obscene content on the Internet and the responsibility of US service providers under the US Communications Decency Act of 1996. Several options were proposed including xxx, sex and adult.[12] The .xxx domain went live in 2011.
An older proposal[13] consisted of seven new gTLDs: arts, firm, info, nom, rec, shop, and web. Later biz, info, museum, and name covered most of these old proposals.
During the 32nd International Public ICANN Meeting in Paris in 2008,[14] ICANN started a new process of TLD naming policy to take a "significant step forward on the introduction of new generic top-level domains." This program envisions the availability of many new or already proposed domains, as well as a new application and implementation process.[15] Observers believed that the new rules could result in hundreds of new gTLDs being registered.[16] Proposed TLDs included free, music, shop, berlin, wien and nyc.
On 13 June 2012 ICANN has revealed nearly 2,000 applications for new top-level domains, which began to go live throughout 2013 after thorough examination.[17][18] Donuts Inc. has invested $57 million in more than 300 applications[19][20] while Famous Four Media applied for 61 new strings.[21] The first seven – .bike, .clothing, .guru, .holdings, .plumbing, .singles, and .ventures – are already live, and all belong to Donuts. More have been released throughout 2014 and will continue coming online steadily into 2015.[22]
Alternative DNS roots[edit]
ICANN's slow progress in creating new generic top-level domains, and the high application costs associated with TLDs, contributed to the creation of alternate DNS roots with different sets of top-level domains. Such domains may be accessed by configuration of a computer with alternate or additional (forwarder) DNS servers or plugin modules for web browsers. Browser plugins detect alternate root domain requests and access an alternate domain name server for such requests.
Several networks, such as BITNET, CSNET, UUCP, existed that were in widespread use among computer professionals and academic users, but were not interoperable directly with the Internet and exchanged mail with the Internet via special email gateways. For relaying purposes on the gateways, messages associated with these networks were labeled with suffixes such as bitnet, oz, csnet, or uucp, but these domains did not exist as top-level domains in the public Domain Name System of the Internet.
Most of these networks have long since ceased to exist, and although UUCP still gets significant use in parts of the world where Internet infrastructure has not yet become well established, it subsequently transitioned to using Internet domain names, and pseudo-domains now largely survive as historical relics. One notable exception is the 2007 emergence of SWIFTNet Mail, which uses the swift pseudo-domain.[23]
The anonymity network Tor has a top-level pseudo-domain onion for Tor hidden services, which can only be reached with a Tor client because it uses the Tor onion routing protocol to reach the hidden service to protect the anonymity of users. i2p provides a similar hidden pseudo-domain, .i2p.
BT hubs use the top-level pseudo-domain home for local DNS resolution of routers, modems and gateways.

Over the past couple of weeks, several local businesses have donated materials, equipment, and man power in order to put up the new scoreboard at Huber Park for the Borger High School Baseball program.
LINN Energy paid for the new scoreboard, Conner Industries welded on the frame to accommodate the new larger board. Fuzzy's Radiator brought out the crane to take down the old and hang the new board. The City of Borger provided labor to help take the old scoreboard down and hang up the new one.
The City of Borger is becoming part of a new public mass information system, better known as PARIS (Panhandle Area Regional Information System).
Borger City Manager Eddie Edwards said that for the past several years, panhandle emergency managers and the Panhandle Regional Planning Commission (PRPC) have been working together in an effort to provide all jurisdictions in the region the ability to contact their residents quickly when disasters are imminent.
Fritch - Tony Manzella, 19, of Fritch, died Monday, January 23, 2012 in Borger.
Services will be 11 a.m. Friday, January 27, 2012 at the Trinity Lutheran Church in Borger with Rev. Don Poole of Saint John's Lutheran Church in Dumas officiating, and Rev. Steve Misch, Mission Ministry Facilitator assisting. Services are under the direction of Minton Chatwell Funeral Directors of Borger. Tony will be available for viewing Wednesday at the funeral home in Borger.
Hutchinson County is once again under a burn ban.
During the Hutchinson County Commissioners Court meeting Monday, Hutchinson County Fire Marshal Danny Richards encouraged commissioners to approve reinforcement of the burn ban.
He said during the past two weeks a lot of deterioration has occurred and firefighters have been called out to six grass fires.
"Weather reports say that we might receive moisture but we don't feel it will be enough to offset our conditions," said Richards. Commissioners approved to place the burn ban in effect for the next 90 days.
Tonight the Dalhart Golden Wolves travel to Tex Hanna Gym to take on the Borger Bulldogs with second place in the District 1-3A standings on the line through the first round of district play.
In the first week of District 1-3A on the boys side, all four games between the four district teams have been close with a few breaks determining the outcome.
Both the Bulldogs and Wolves own overtime wins over Pampa and close losses to Perryton, who currently is the district leader with a 2-0 mark.
The boys game is scheduled to tip off at 7:30 p.m.
