By ELDON MILLERHelper
As I read Frances Cunningham's letter to the editor (Sept. 24) concerning the Bruno Farm property my mind went back to the days following my return to Carbon County in 1990. For 30 years we, my wife and I, carried in our minds the images of Carbon County as we remembered it. I had lived in eight different communities in Carbon County. My wife was from Hiawatha. We found us a fine home in the Castle Gate sub-division in the mouth of Spring Canyon. We were retired and looked forward to visiting our "home places."
With excited anticipation we first visited Hiawatha, or, what was left of Hiawatha. Next, I suggested to my wife and children that we should then go up to my old home towns of Spring Canyon and Standardville. They were totally gone. Castle Gate was also no more. Sunnydale was where we first made our home when we married in 1955. It too was not recognizable. We couldn't even find where our house had stood.
Ah progress! What it can do. Yet, as I think on it, perhaps the word "progress" isn't what really happened. I wonder.
Well now for the past 12 years I have been trying to make a collection of the pictures of the coal camps as I knew them. I have been fairly successful. Each time someone allows me to make a copy of an old picture I think to myself, how I wish I could have that picture talk and tell me of the people that lived within it. So, with that thought in mind I have been trying to convince those who lived in and around those places to write some of their memories concerning their days as a coal camp person. I have not been too successful in that endeavor, but have had some thoughtful and concerned folks do so. As a result the Carbon County Historical Society has published four journals with those memoirs we have received. This has been an effort to partially keep alive those coal camps that provided an environment so unique to Carbon County.
Now, I guess I will have to hurry and take pictures of the Bruno Farm before it too will go the way of progress, oh, I wasn't going to use that word. I'm not sure, though, what word I can use. Perhaps desecration might be strong enough to match my feelings of what our county has lost by the thoughtless razing of our heritage.
It is my sincere hope that UDOT will be able to build the overpass without taking away another of our few remaining historical sites. I know that I, for one, will encourage them to do so.

Not as bright as Sylvania Silverstar
By Rod
From Toronto, ON
About Me Value Oriented
Bright white but does not seem to project as far as Sylvania Silverstar which I also have used. Much better than standard bulbs and $10 cheaper then Silverstars. Worth the cost.

Excellent product!
By 1994GTP
From Pottstown, PA
About Me Car Enthusiast
These Crystal Vision Ultras are a vast improvement over the standard 9006 bulbs in my 2011 Dodge Avenger! These are brighter than a standard bulb and are much much whiter! I've had these bulbs before in my 2008 G6 and they lasted 2 years, so hopefully I have the same luck again. I would definitely recommend buying these. Even if they don't last too long, I will still buy another set just because I am very picky about having whiter headlights at night for visibility.

Awesome Bulbs
By Wesley
From Fresno, CA
About Me Quality Oriented, Value Oriented
Bought these to put in some company trucks, and they make a world of difference! Once a driver got used to having these in their truck, and then had to switch to another truck, they started thinking that they were having headlight problems, forgetting that their usual truck has these installed!The only downside is they are almost 4 times as expensive as regular 9006 bulbs, but it makes it easier to see and since they are company trucks, safety is a number one priority.

Swedenborgian House of Studies mentioned in NYT's article
Megan Marshall, author of "Margaret Fuller: A New American Life," writes in a New York Times opinion article of how she learned from an man in Idaho that the Swedenborgian House of Studies at PSR possessed "a rare unpublished letter by Ralph Waldo Emerson concerning the 1850 shipwreck in which his dear friend Margaret Fuller had drowned at age 40."
"Soon I was sitting in the windowless basement archive of the Swedenborgian House of Studies in Berkeley reading a four-page letter in Emerson's bold and mercifully legible script addressed to Hugh Maxwell, Collector of the Port of New York."
Megan Marshall teaches nonfiction writing in the M.F.A. program at Emerson College.
Another article also mentions Marshall coming to PSR to read the letter.

Main Content
Charismatic and legendary are two words that perfectly describe 55-time race winner Rusty Wallace, who will be inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame® this year as part of the Class of 2013. In 1994, the first year that Penske Racing competed in a Ford, Wallace wheeled the car he nicknamed "Midnight" - the No. 2 Miller Genuine Draft Ford Thunderbird. As one of the most well-known cars in the history of NASCAR®, "Midnight" will sit in the Hall of Honor. This single chassis, PSC-0009, produced a total of 18 wins during the 1993 and 1994 seasons.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Chris Hairston has been placed on injured reserve and will miss the rest of the season with a bruised right ankle.
Coach Chan Gailey will shuffle his line, and use rookie David Snow and also veteran Sam Young at times to replace Hairston, 23, a 6-foot-6, 330-pound right tackle out of Clemson.
The news made matters difficult for the line. Erik Pears, the team's top right tackle, has been out since Nov. 6, and is also lost for the season with a hip issue.
Buffalo signed Chris Scott off the Tennessee Titans' practice squad to the fill the roster vacancy. The 6-4, 360-pound tackle has also spent time on the practice squads of Green Bay and Tampa Bay after playing two seasons with the Steelers. He was selected by Pittsburgh in the 2010 fifth round.
The Bills (5-7) will take on St. Louis (5-6-1) on Sunday.

I had to re-install my Windows XP Media Center Edition and in so doing evidently entered a 'system password', which must be entered each time I start the PC. Question - Is there some way to reset or disable this item??
I have never heard of a system password. Could it be some sort of Administrator password, although I have never heard of that popping up each startup either? The only logical thing I can think of is a BIOS password that is required each time the system cold boots. I know my BIOS has the option. Could you some how get a screen shot of the event? That would be most helpful.

The IB had its basis in the Swiss educational system. The Europeans, for all their faults, didn't mess around with the basics of schooling back then. The curricula foreign kids got were much tougher than in America, even at most private schools. Not even pictures in elementary textbooks existed. Switzerland was considered la crème of the educational universe. If a parent had real money, that's where they sent their kids. Former presidential candidate, Senator John Kerry, went to boarding school there. A common joke went: How do you tell a European student from an American pupil? Answer: The European kid takes three steps before his book-bag moves!
Those days are gone. Switzerland, France and most other nations are facing the same leftist ideology, political correctness and mental "health" exercises — all passed off as academics.
Nevertheless, folks are misled into believing today's IB program is top-drawer, just like its predecessor. But the modern IB bears no resemblance to the 1950s-era program. From its inception in the 1940s, there were ideological biases toward socialism, but in areas such as math, science, literature, spelling, geography and history, it was the gold standard. Today, both the IB curricula and its tests have undergone profound changes.
Today's IB (like most ordinary K-12 curriculums) operates in partnership with UNESCO, and therefore is consistent with United Nations dogma. The IB is U.N. dogma on steroids, and redistribution of wealth is an overriding, subliminal theme.
The biggest difference between the American creed and IB is that our Declaration of Independence insists that government is beholden to the people; it does not exist to protect itself. This view puts teeth into the notion of inalienable, individual rights, which is one reason socialist-leaning schools here at home gloss over the Declaration — as if it were Thomas Jefferson's unsolicited opinion.
Under the U.S. Bill of Rights, government has only those rights that the people say it has. The U.N. takes the position, in its Universal Declaration on Human Rights (Universal Declaration of Human Rights [UDHR], Article 29, Section 3), that: "rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations" [italics mine]. This small phrase is key: Under the UDHR, people have only those rights the United Nations (ergo, government) says they have.
Take, for example, Flora High School in Richland County, Columbia, South Carolina. It started offering the IB program when the U.S. Department of Education announced $1.2 million targeted to fund the IB program in middle schools (2007). The idea was that they would become "feeder schools" for the IB's high school diploma program in low-income school districts around the country. (This, by the way, is a typical method of extending potentially unpopular government programs: to start with one state, offer huge bucks to promote it as a "pilot project"; then, get the bugs out and take it national.)
The Earth Charter comprises the backbone of IB science, ethics, literature and history programs, because that is UNESCO's approach to foreign policy issues. Briefly, the primary elements of the Earth Charter are:
- Earth worship (pantheism).
- Socialized medicine.
- World federalism.
- Income redistribution among nations and within nations.
- Eradication of genetically modified (GMO) crops.
- Contraception and "reproductive health" rights (inc., legal abortion).
- World-wide "education for sustainability" which means planned communities and citizens told where they must live.
- Debt forgiveness and different standards for third-world nations.
- Adoption of gay rights and the right of children to all sexual materials and literature.
- Elimination of any right to bear arms.
- Environmental extremist positions, including global warming, bans on pesticides and genetically enhanced vegetables.
- Setting aside biosphere reserves where no human presence is allowed, which means the government may come in and take your land for its own higher purposes — something that is now being debated in a case before the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution are fundamentally opposite from the U.N.'s UDHR. A few examples:
- The right to bear arms — UDHR has no right to bear arms.
- No double jeopardy — UDHR does not prohibit double jeopardy.
- Church/state separation — UDHR promotes earth-worship spirituality.
- Limited government — UDHR has no limits on government.
- Reserved powers — UDHR has no reserved powers.
- Recognition of natural law — UDHR does not recognize natural law.
- Guarantee that property cannot be taken by government without just compensation — UDHR has no such guarantee.
If one doesn't look too closely, IB curricula appears to mimic the American creed — that is, the principles of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution: that all men and women are created equal; inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, that government exists to protect those rights, and limited government. But the IB program, first of all, attempts to guarantee "happiness," not just its pursuit. It also lacks the references to universal truths and values that once were staples of American classrooms. International curriculum standards promote UDHR as being the highest of all principles.
Today's IB is committed not to a melting-pot concept, but to globalism and multiculturalism. Accurate history, correct geography, honoring perspectives or even other nationalities all wind up in a hodge-podge called "diversity" or "multiculturalism," which is more about lip-service than substance. Globalism venerates the collective, not the individual; world government is celebrated over national sovereignty; centralization of power is honored over local control. That is why "social studies" are mostly about minimizing Western culture. So it is not surprising that American Indian and African worship would be taught in the IB program (with the more gruesome elements left out, of course, such as ritual mutilations, human sacrifice, female infanticide), while red and green ornaments at Christmas are banned from tax-supported U.S. educational institutions.
Today's IB students approach ethics from the perspective of Muslims, Native Americans, Eastern Europeans, Africans, and so forth, without regard to their inherent rightness or wrongness, or even morality. The Judeo-Christian ethic is no longer a benchmark. Students are further expected to identify and root out cultural stereotypes. Even IB Theatre Arts integrates global concerns and international perspectives through a learning environment that emphasizes non-Western traditions.
In addition, modern IB students are steeped in fringe science. Even Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is blamed on global warming, for example. Meanwhile, medical breakthroughs such as those discovered through the Human Genome Project are beginning to be used to encourage support for selective breeding in humans. Naturally, kids who don't even know basic science aren't aware of this. What they don't know will make "parent licensing" a lot easier to "sell" when it emerges full-blown in about 10 years — i.e., government deciding who is allowed to become a parent and which children should be aborted.
Health classes focus on topics like overpopulation and AIDS, not the inner workings of the human body. So, solutions to trendy pseudo-problems naturally revolve around abortion, condoms and sexual awareness, which have no track record of success, even if one were to accept the ethics. Indeed, humans are viewed as no more than complex animals.
While there is no actual course called "economics" in most IB programs, students do learn to convert various world currencies as part of a unit in social studies. But they are also immersed in redistribution theology and taught that evil consumerism in the West is denying the good life to people in Third World countries — never mind that political leaders in those countries never seem to get their act together and have a propensity for lining their own pockets with the donations supplied by those "evil consumers."
When the IB's public relations publications say the program utilizes a multidisciplinary approach in order to relate various curricula to each other, what kids actually see is mathematics fused with fringe science and environmental extremism. Thus they absorb flawed energy and conservation policies. As voters later on, this message is highly damaging. Combine this with biased history and, yes, you have a multidisciplinary approach, all right, but the pupils are getting a political agenda, not a well-rounded education or a coherent set of facts.
Ultimately, today's IB is a red herring with extensive funding ties to interests advancing U.N. politics, as opposed to any transmission of substantive, core knowledge, as was the case pre-1955.

The 2008 results and the balance sheet in UBS's 2008 annual report differ from those presented in UBS's fourth quarter 2008 report issued on 10 February 2009 due to: (1) the settlement agreements with the US Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission related to the US cross-border case; and (2) the determination by the Swiss National Bank (SNB) of the 30 September 2008 valuation of approximately USD 7.8 billion of securities not yet transferred by UBS to the SNB StabFund, as described UBS's 2008 annual report. The full effect of the settlement agreements, and all but approximately CHF 0.1 billion of the SNB pricing adjustment, are taken into account in UBS's 2008 results and the balance sheet in UBS's 2008 annual report. The total impact on net profit after tax was negative CHF 1,190 million.

Mets exploring pitching options – eyeing several free agents, trade with LA
According to multiple industry sources, the Mets have expressed interest in several free agent starting pitchers including Carl Pavano, Francisco Liriano, Chris Young, and Shaun Marcum, writes Ken Davidoff of the New York Post.
In addition, Davidoff says the Mets are exploring a trade for one of Chris Capuano or Aaron Harang from the Dodgers – Los Angeles reportedly began shopping both of them during the Winter Meetings.
In regards to Pavano, Davidoff notes he held serious reservations about a possible second stint with the Yankees two winters ago, and so it remains to be seen if he'd consider joining the Mets now.
No matter who the Mets choose for their rotation, Davidoff says a decision is unlikely to be made until after the new year.
For Michael Baron's thoughts on these pitchers, click here...
Michael Baron, ContributorPavano has had one of the strangest pitching careers in recent memory. He has historically pitched to a lot of contact but is a control artist who limits bases on balls which in turn limits the damage allowed. When he's right, Pavano can be one of the more solid and dependable right-handers in the game. But I'm not sure how he might fare back in New York, considering how badly his first go-around was in this city with the Yankees.
Liriano is a hard throwing left-handed pitcher who, while he strikes out a lot of batters, walks a lot of batters as well. He is primarily a fastball/slider pitcher who will mix in an occasional change-up. He held left-handed hitters to a .221 average and allowed just one home run against them in 2012 – he's only allowed six home runs in his career against left-handed pitching. He put together a phenomenal season in 2006, but has battled arm injury and consistency problems since.
Harang and Marcum are very similar pitchers – like Pavano, both pitch to contact but they throw strikes which helps them remain effective. They don't strikeout many hitters, but they limit their walks and do a pretty good job of keeping the ball in the park. Marcum is coming off an elbow injury which cost him two months in the middle of last season, and pitched to a 4.32 ERA in eight starts after coming back. But he was on his way to another good year and could have easily had double digit wins for the fourth time in five years if not for his stint on the disabled list.
As we learned last year, Young showed he was a six-inning pitcher with very little margin for error. He relies on commanding the top of the strike zone with a below average fastball, and when that pitch falls below the letters, he finds big trouble. But when he's above the letters, he induces soft contact in the air and can get quick outs. He admitted all year he was still in the process of recovering from shoulder surgery in May, 2011, and so I wonder if his stamina might improve with a normal winter routine and a normal Spring Training.
Capuano has certainly proved his injury problems are behind him. He had a spectacular season in his first year with the Dodgers, throwing more innings than he had since 2006, nearly topping the 200 inning mark. He showed an increase in stamina over his prior season with Mets – he had a lot of trouble exceeding six innings in 2011 but exceeded that mark in 20 of his 33 starts for Los Angeles last season. He keeps himself in fantastic shape, is one of the smartest pitchers in the game, and is developing into one of the nicest stories in baseball as well.
Marcum and Harang offer the most consistent track records, and therefore would be the safest bets for the Mets to take. Neither are aces and Harang would come at a cost of both money and players in trade, but either would be very strong fifth starters in an already improving rotation.
Statistics and information on these pitchers...
Carl Pavano
Stats: Pavano, who turns 37 in January, went 2-5 with a 6.00 ERA in only 11 starts in 2012, allowing 80 hits with eight walks and nine home runs in 63 innings. He missed most of the season with a bone spur in his right humerus bone.
Contract: Pavano just completed a two-year, $16.5 million contract he signed with the Twins before the 2011 season.

The Ventura Ranch KOA is a 76-acre campground nestled in Heritage Valley at the foot of Ventura Countys highest mountain, Topa Topa. Our guests enjoy clean, fresh air as well as a forest setting close to the creek side. Little noise to distract; just lots of wildlife, gorgeous views, clear star-lit nights and only 15 miles from the beach! We are just off the scenic highway, 150 miles between Santa Paula and Ojai.
We offer four types of accommodations, from the very rustic to deluxe! We have large tent sites (no electricity) and nearby you'll have access to water, restrooms and showers. Our authentic Indian-styled teepees come furnished with beds & wicker chairs. Be sure to bring all your bedding and camping supplies. Water, restrooms and showers are a short walk away, but bring your flashlights and lanterns, as there is no electricity in the teepees.
If you would like to add our glamour package for $49 to your teepee, please call the office about availability. We do require a minimum stay of two nights to add the glamour package & you must request the glamour package 2 weeks prior to your arrival.
Bring your RV and relax in one of our large, shady RV sites. We have pull-thru, back-in, full & partial hookups available. Some even have patios with patio furniture! All sites have 50/30 amp service. The shadiest sites go first so book yours right away! (No tents allowed on RV sites). Your nightly rate includes the motorhome or trailer & ONE car. Extra overnight passes are $10 for your entire stay.
Don't have a tent or RV? Like to camp in style? Try our upgraded, fully furnished deluxe cabins, which come complete with linens, towels, kitchen supplies, full size appliances, 38" flat screen TV, DVD player, central heat/air and an oversized deck with a gas BBQ grill. You'll also have your own fire pit for Smores! Our Deluxe Cabins can accommodate up to six guests.
Studio cabins are a smaller version of our Deluxe cabins & tons of fun! All come with a microwave and mini-fridge, your own private patio deck, charcoal BBQ grill, fire pit, and, of course, all linens provided! Ask about our studios with flat screen TVs! Sleeps up to 4 people.
Camp Safari-style in a glamour tent! Furnished with a queen bed & futon couch, you can easily sleep 4 people. This tent comes with electricity inside, it's fully furnished and has a microwave and mini-fridge to make cooking easy! Enjoy a campfire in the evening on your private patio. Very private and secluded while still close to the restrooms and showers!
Our activities for children and families are growing, too, as we wait for our pool to be designed and built. You can still remain busy making fun memories with arts and crafts, our huge jumping pillow, swing set & playground area, rock climbing tower, zip lining, race car pedal bikes, nature walks, and visiting the Bigfoot Watering Hole. Saturdays we sometimes offer a complimentary In Search Of Bigfoot Night Adventure walk--call the office to see if your weekend has one scheduled!
Improvements are happening throughout the park! So pardon us while we are renovating, building and upgrading our buildings, sites and amenities to make this your favorite campground!
If you are inviting people to visit you at your site, please be aware of the following rules:
All visitors must stop at the front office and register their vehicle and everyone coming into the park. There is a $10 charge that covers the driver and car; additional people are $4 each. Children under 5 are free. The car pass you are assigned must be clearly displayed at the front of the vehicle at all times. All visitors must leave by 10pm, when our campground quiet hours begin.

Photographer Jeffrey Horvitz focuses on one subject, Matt, in a series of flesh- and soul-baring portraits. The model dresses up in full leather regalia in Like a Fury, while in Fearlessness he dons a lacy blue negligée. The three-part series, bookended by Dawn of Separation and Righteousness, exposes the left and right sides of the model's torso, with its hunky abdominal muscles and inguinal crease. The connection between photographer and subject is strong, recalling world-renowned portraitist Greg Gorman's series Just Between Us. Through June 29.

FORT DRUM The announcement Thursday that women will be allowed in combat roles was met by soldiers and north country veterans with mixed reactions.
The move will allow women to serve in thousands of roles across the military that previously had been unattainable. The decisions effect on Fort Drum will not be known for several months, as the military service branches have until May 15 to submit plans on the changed guidelines to the secretary of defense.
However, with three combat brigades based here, it could be inferred that the post will see large changes regarding women in combat roles.
Spc. Kelley E. Rizzo, sitting with fellow soldiers from the 3rd Brigade Special Troops Battalion, 3rd Brigade Combat Team on Thursday at Ticos Mex Mex Grill, Great Bend, called the decision a great one, and said she knew a lot of other female soldiers who are interested in combat roles.
Spc. Rizzo said the main issue would be overcoming negative stereotypes. Women can do most of the same things men do, she said. It should be a benefit instead of a detriment.
She said she was encouraged by examples of female soldiers who have helped Army units during deployments through interactions with local Afghan women. The only enlisted woman in her platoon, Spc. Rizzo said she had not had any issues working with her male counterparts.
At the Golden Unicorn Diner and Motel, Felts Mills, Pfc. Eugene P. Walker, who was eating lunch with fellow 10th Combat Aviation Brigade member Spc. Michael G. Holenchick, said the change was not going to negatively affect him.
They send women out on patrols, convoys, Pfc. Walker said. If their convoy is attacked, theyll be returning fire anyway.
Spc. Holenchick argued that a male soldiers chivalry would produce an emotional attachment to female comrades that could affect their work.
A man always has to feel protective in that kind of situation, Spc. Holenchick said. Pfc. Walker countered that most soldiers have an emotional attachment to fellow soldiers regardless of gender.
If I got shot and you didnt feel a particular way ... , Pfc. Walker said, stopping his sentence to laugh.
The change in roles created a spirited debate among counselors and patients at the Veterans Outreach Center of the Mental Health Association in Jefferson County, based in the Marcy Building in Watertown.
Richard K. Allan, whose 19-year Army career included service in operations Desert Storm and Desert Shield, said he was concerned about women physically being able to perform combat duties, and suggested the military should consider job-specific physical fitness requirements instead of overall requirements based on gender.
Robert E. Bowen, a counseling intern at the center and a retired Army tanker, said he would support the change if women could prove their ability.
Were fighting for our brother next to us, Mr. Bowen said. If its a sister, well fight too.
Melissa R. Amos, who served for 16 years in medic, supply and maintenance roles with the Army, Army National Guard and Army Reserve, said she would have done medic work in combat units if given the opportunity.
Ms. Amos, a military, family and veteran advocate at the center, said that in her medic work, she routinely would carry an 80-pound medical bag in addition to her regular pack.
Ms. Amos said other nations, such as Israel and Germany, have had women in combat roles for years.
If other nations can do it, why are we decades behind? she said.

On April 23, 2010, the Chicago Fire Soccer Club and Section 8 Chicago, the Independent Supporters' Association for the Chicago Fire Soccer Club (ISA), unveiled the Chicago Fire Soccer Club Supporters' Charter, a first of its kind document in North American sports that details the mission and values of the Fire organization and its supporters.
Drafted by Fire owner Andrew Hauptman in collaboration with members of the Fire front office and Section 8 Chicago, the Supporters' Charter seeks to define the Club's core values, Fire supporters' rights and expectations, fan relations policies and the Club's continued involvement within the community.
The Supporters Charter is a living document that the Fire and Section 8 Chicago will work together to amend when necessary in the future.
