All, looking for inputs regarding my son's return from AIT situation. He graduated today from B Battery, 2-6 ADA. We live near Cincinnati and just found out that his return flight tomorrow is to Akron (220 miles away opposite corner of the state). Called up his Platoon Sergeant a few minutes ago, was told he (the Platoon Sergeant) didn't pick up the tickets till 2pm today, and that the Army bases the airport choice on lowest pricing. Our son has been asking for some time regarding his flight arrangements home. I understand looking for the lowest price option, but the Akron Airport is 220 miles away from our home and figured there has to be a maximum distance in this decision process. This means a 440 mile round trip for us to pick him up. On top of that, he arrives at 11:00 pm, which means we won't be leaving the airport until 11:30 or 12 midnight, then have to drive for almost 4 hours. I was in the military for 10 years and have all the respect for the Army, but our soldiers need to be treated better than this. I will make some calls to the National Guard local recruiting office, they have always been very helpful, but at that point it will be too late. Just a bit frustrated right now in that they wait till the very last minute to let us know we have 8 hours of travel tomorrow to get our son home.

Mr. Game & Watch
Mr. Game & Watch is a 2-D character and mascot of the Game & Watch Gallery games and the Game & Watch handheld systems. Despite this, however, none of the original Game & Watch games feature Mr. Game & Watch, instead featuring a variety of other usually nameless characters. Mr. Game & Watch himself is a compilation of all of these characters, first designed to function as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Melee. His appearance seems to be based on the generic people in Fire and Parachute.
Game & Watch[edit]
Although Mr. Game & Watch does not appear in any of the original Game & Watch systems, his moveset in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl is almost entirely based on games within the series.
Wario Land 4[edit]
In Wario Land 4, a character that is very similar to Mr. Game & Watch appears as the Item Shopkeeper. She is an alternate form of the Black Cat's (which is additionally Princess Shokora in her feline form) and serves as the shopkeeper of the Item Shop. She also appears as pictures on the walls of the level Hall of Hieroglyphs. A notable difference between Mr. Game & Watch and the Item Shopkeeper is that the shopkeeper has eyes.
Game & Watch Gallery 4[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch, along with Mario, hosts the Gift Mode in the Gallery Corner. This is his only speaking role.
Super Smash Bros. series[edit]
Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch also appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee with the rest of the Mario cast. Here, he is the final unlockable, as the player has to get all of the other twenty-four characters first. After beating Classic or Adventure mode with every other character, the player will be challenged by Mr. Game & Watch in Flat Zone. He is unlocked when he is defeated in the match. In All-Star mode, the Mr. Game and Watch team is always the final enemy stage. Here, the player must beat twenty-five Mr. Game & Watches.
Mr. Game & Watch's movement in the game is rather unusual, as he moves in G&W Quartams. All of his "voice" clips (including screams, taunts, and other such noises) are actually the sounds heard when playing the various Game & Watch titles. Mr. Game & Watch is portrayed as one of the lightest fighters in the Super Smash Bros. series, thanks to his flat appearance.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch returns in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as an unlockable character. His Final Smash makes him transform into a giant octopus that extends its tentacles. After the octopus appears, anyone who gets hit by the tentacles will take damage. This octopus is from the Game & Watch Octopus, which is also a mini-game in WarioWare: Smooth Moves.
The Subspace Emissary[edit]
In the Subspace Emissary from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mr. Game & Watch clones made from Shadow Bugs are in direct command of the Halberd. In addition, according to the Shadow Bugs' trophy information, his body produces Shadow Bugs — a substance that is used to form members of the Subspace Army, which can be endlessly extracted from him. He doesn't revolt against the Subspace Army at first, as he is unaware of the concept of good and evil. After Meta Knight gets back the Halberd, he takes control. Snake knocks out all the Mr. Game & Watches out of an open window and into the Halberd's bridge, where they melt into Shadow Bugs that merge into Duon, except for the real one. Following the foe's defeat, a Mr. Game & Watch's trophy is left behind. Fox McCloud attempts to shoot it but Princess Peach revives it and gives Mr. Game & Watch her Parasol. Mr. Game & Watch fiddles with it, then walks around with it in Game & Watch quartams, making Peach giggle. He then joins the party helping the rest throughout the game.
Mr. Game & Watch is the only major character to not have a snapshot.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch reappears in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U as an unlockable character. His appearance has been altered a bit, which includes having a smaller nose, and more rounded hands. His moveset appears unchanged, however, though there are minor differences in his looks when performing certain moves. Much like previous games in the series, Mr. Game & Watch is very lightweight, making him quite easy to send flying.
His inclusion in the game was briefly hinted at in Pac-Man's reveal trailer, where at the end of the video, the screen compares the debut years between him, Pac-Man, Mario and Donkey Kong. His debut year is technically incorrect, because Mr. Game & Watch did not receive an official name or debut appearance until Super Smash Bros. Melee, and his Super Smash Bros. Brawl trophy description considers his debut to be 2002's Game & Watch Gallery. Despite being hinted at in the trailer, he wasn't officially confirmed in the game until its release.
In terms of customizations, Mr. Game & Watch is the only fighter who can be equipped with the Torch, Watch Battery, and Microchip equipment.
WarioWare series[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch makes cameos on the menus of WarioWare: Twisted! and in the 'Games' icon in the character selection screen in WarioWare: Touched! Several audiences in The Invent-Off stage cutscenes from WarioWare: Smooth Moves resemble Mr. Game & Watch people. Finally, he also appears in the microgames that are based on the Game & Watch games.
Donkey Kong Country Returns[edit]
In Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS remake, Mr. Game & Watch makes a cameo appearance in the background of Foggy Fumes. He is seen hammering a pipe.
Special Moves[edit]
Chef is a move that Mr. Game & Watch uses in the game Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is simply done by pressing the B button. He will pull out a Frying Pan and sling it up, flinging bacon into the air. However, in Brawl, it can also toss ham and fish. The move usually does around 2-9 damage. The move is a long-distance, and the bacon can also get flung really high up. However, it doesn't go as far as other long-range moves. Nevertheless, the move is a perfect move for long-distance fighting. It is named after the Game & Watch game, Chef, which had been used earlier in Game & Watch Gallery 2.
If another player does manage to get past the flying food items, they will get hit by Mr. Game & Watch's frying pan. This does more damage, and will cause the opponent to fly away while burning.
Judge (known as Judgment in Super Smash Bros. Melee) is a move that Mr. Game & Watch uses in the Super Smash Bros. series. It is his side special move. Mr. Game & Watch will hold up a flag with a number on it, and pulls out a Hammer. The Flag will show a number on the instant the attack is used and, depending on the number, the effect of the move will vary. After the number is shown, Mr. Game & Watch will hit the opponent (or sometimes himself), causing a different effect to the foe. When a person is about to attack the player, they should use Judge right when they attack them.
Judge is based on the Game & Watch game Judge, and Mr. Game & Watch's actions when performing Judge are similar to those done by the protagonists of Judge. This game was also put into Game & Watch Gallery 3, before Super Smash Bros. Melee was released.
With some very minor differences, in both games the attacks remain roughly the same.
Fire is an attack that is used by Mr. Game & Watch in Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is executed by pressing Up on the Control Stick, and then pressing the B Button. A fire crew will appear out of nowhere, and appear underneath him. They will bounce him back up onto the field with a trampoline. It acts as his third jump, and can also be used to damage opponents, by jumping into an enemy. It is a very useful third jump, as Mr. Game & Watch jumps very high up into the air. Unlike in the next game, Mr. Game & Watch doesn't open a parachute at the end of the attack, becomes helpless. The attack is named after the Game & Watch game called Fire, which was previously included in Game & Watch Gallery 3.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mr. Game & Watch gains a parachute to slow his descent on the way down, similarly to Peach Parasol. In Melee, the parachute was originally his standard air attack, but it doesn't slow his descent in any way. Canceling his parachute causes Mr. Game & Watch to not use his up-special again until he touches the ground (although this attack no longer leaves Mr. Game & Watch helpless). To compromise its new role in Brawl, he gains a new standard air attack based on the Game & Watch game called Tropical Fish, which was previously included in Game & Watch Gallery 4.
Oil Panic[edit]
Oil Panic is a move used by Mr. Game & Watch in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is done by pressing +. Mr. Game & Watch will then pull out a bucket, which he can use to suck in any energy projectiles (like Pikachu's Thunder Jolt, or Fox's Blaster). After absorbing three blows, all Mr. Game & Watch has to do now is wait for the right timing, and then press +. This will launch a bucket load of oil at the opponent. The damage varies depending on the projectiles the player absorbed. It can do about 3% of damage, to 200% in Melee and 60% in Brawl, to an instant KO. Because of this, and how the attack works, it is very difficult to master, but is incredibly powerful once done correctly. At maximum power, Oil Panic is the most damaging single-hit attack in Super Smash Bros. This move is named after a Game & Watch game called Oil Panic, which is available in Game & Watch Gallery.
Octopus is Mr. Game & Watch's Final Smash featured in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. When Game & Watch breaks open the Smash Ball, he will transform into the Octopus from the Game & Watch game of the same name. The Octopus will float above the stage, with the option to attack by extending its tentacles, or ram opponents with its body. When extending its tentacles, the body will not do as much damage. Because it hovers directly above the stage, it will fall and KO Mr. Game & Watch if it leaves the side of the stage. It can do a mid-air jump, and in Rumble Falls, it can jump off of platforms, but other than the mid-air jump, it has no recovery move.
This move is named after a Game & Watch game called Octopus, which is available in Game & Watch Gallery and Game & Watch Gallery 4.
Other Attacks[edit]
It has been requested that this article should be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Greenhouse is Mr. Game & Watch's Standard Attack move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, based on Stanley's Bug-Spray Gun from Greenhouse. Unlike in Greenhouse, however, the attack sprays clouds horizontally, which can build up damage and trap opponents inside by rapidly pressing the Attack Button.
Mr. Game & Watch holds out a chair as his side A strong attack, based on the lion tamers in Lion.
Fire Attack[edit]
Fire Attack is Mr. Game & Watch's Side Smash move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, from the Game & Watch of the same name. Mr. Game & Watch will attack opponents by using a torch, like the Indians in Fire Attack.
Mr. Game & Watch flips a manhole cover from Manhole beneath him while using his down A attack.
Vermin is Mr. Game & Watch's Down Smash move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, from Vermin. Mr. Game & Watch attacks from both sides using twin hammers.
Mr. Game & Watch waves the 1 flag from Flagman above him in an arc, as his Up A attack.
Not to be confused with Mr. Game & Watch's Final Smash, his Up Smash involves him headbutting a target above him while wearing the diver's helmet from Octopus.
Parachute is the name of Mr. Game & Watch's Standard Aerial move in Super Smash Bros. Melee. The move is slow in execution, but it does have good range, and packs a decent amount of power too.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, this move was replaced by Tropical Fish. Parachute was instead used after the player uses Fire, which is used for recovery and does 6% damage to opponents.
Tropical Fish[edit]
Tropical Fish is the name of Mr. Game & Watch's Standard Aerial move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Its name is based on the Game & Watch game Tropical Fish. It replaces the move Parachute from Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Mario Bros.[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch's Forward Aerial swings a package from Mario Bros. in front of him.
Spitball Sparky[edit]
While using his Up Aerial move, Mr. Game & Watch shoots a puff of air and loses his arms, referencing Spitball Sparky. The move can blow distant targets away, much like Spitball Sparky can do with his ball. Deals 2 hits; the second hit is stronger than the first hit, however it is very difficult to land due to the wind effect of the first hitbox and it has a knockback growth.
Turtle Bridge[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch swings a turtle from Turtle Bridge behind him as his Back Aerial move, which can score multiple hits.
Donkey Kong Jr.[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch rushes down with a key, in the same manner as Donkey Kong Jr. in the Game & Watch of the same name.
All four of Mr. Game & Watch's throws are based on the marionette from Ball, which could juggle two or three balls at a time.
As his Running Attack, Mr. Game & Watch sports the helmet from Helmet.
Business Bell[edit]
Mr. Game & Watch uses a bell whenever he taunts. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, two of his taunts involved the bell. The bell was also used to pummel an opponent that Mr. Game & Watch has grabbed, as well as attack while climbing up a ledge.

Legend holds that the length of a woolly bear caterpillar's color bands can be used to forecast how severe the winter weather will be. The myth dates back to colonial American folklore but was popularized by a 1948 study. SciFri finds out if there's any truth to the lore, and what the caterpillar's fuzzy bristles are really used for.

OGDENSBURG The City Council approved the purchase of a new electric Zamboni on Aug. 13.
Council members argued over whether the $120,000 price tag on the machine was justified, but a consensus of the council agreed to the purchase in lieu of two used models.
City Director of Parks and Recreation Matthew J. Curatolo is working on a resolution to purchase the machine but said it might take several months for the new Zamboni to arrive. In the meantime, he said, he is working on a plan to make sure ice is available at the Richard G. Lockwood Civic Center in November and December.
Ogdensburgs current 32-year-old Zamboni requires $24,000 in repairs, which includes rebuilding its engine, an expense Mr. Curatolo could not justify considering the machines age and use the city has rebuilt the engine twice since buying the unit.

As per one of the leading Unlocked Cell Phone Blog Site, Sprint has announced that they will be now allowing customers to roam abroad on 4G networks where they are available. The roaming so far is limited to Digicel, which is located in Jamaica, and Global Mobile, which is currently located in Taiwan. The devices will utilize the Sprint SmartView Connection Manager, which will allow the devices to detect when they are within reach of the networks. They will be able to connect to the roaming service utilizing a 24 hour day long pass for just $14.99. The announcement makes Sprint the first company to offer international 4G Roaming.
The partnership goes to show that Sprint is committed to advancing their 4G support where applicable. The manager will allow for users to also utilize their Sprint connection, or international 4G roaming connection to connect to their desktops as well.
"We are excited to be Sprint's first 4G roaming partner in Asia and looking forward to extending this alliance to our partners around the world," said Rosemary Ho, who is the CEO of Global Mobile.
The partnership is the first of its kind to involve 4G networks and will allow for users to internationally roam on 4G networks. The current Sprint 4G network is found in 71 different markets in the Untied States. These markets include some very large cities including Los Angeles, Chicago, Denver, Houston and New York City. Sprint has continually expanded their 4G coverage, and is expected to continue their rapid expansion rate well into 2011.
Although their international 4G roaming features are limited, you can take this announcement as the first of more to come that will hopefully expand their 4G coverage to other areas of the globe in the coming months. Digicel is currently offering 4G coverage in more than 32 different markets across the Caribbean, and Central America.
PureMobile carries a wide range unlocked cell phone accessories and unlocked cell phones like Unlocked Sony Ericsson Xperia X10a, Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant, etc.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
For more than a year now, the Family Support and Children's Justice Center has been operating and excelling within their new location on Fairgrounds Road. This new facility has not only brought increased amenities, but a new sense of service and capability for those who work toward support and justice for Carbon County children.
"As soon as we got into the facility, we hit the ground running," said FSCJC Director Shelly Wright. "The continued support from this community has been incredible. One of the big differences between this building and what we had before, is the feeling you get when you step into this facility. It's open in here and we have a parking lot, something that was severely lacking at our last center."
To commemorate the facility's first year, Wright and her cohorts at the center organized a celebration that included food, activities and a petting zoo for every child who was able to attend.
"We are able to offer a great amount of security both physically and emotionally for our children in this facility," continued Wright. "The playground area, the privacy fencing, it's just top notch."
As far as specific functions go, the new facility came equipped with an infant care room, which has allowed the center to take on a whole new demographic of children.
"We now have a room we can put cribs in," explained Wright. "We used to have to go into the boy's bedroom to get to the restroom with our babies. The new building had changed all that. Our recording equipment is also completely updated. We used to run on VHS if you can believe that. In contrast, everything in this facility is digital."
The new center houses three state-of-the-art interview rooms, which officials and law enforcement use for child abuse protocols.
According to Wright, the local child abuse situation doesn't seem to be getting worse at the moment but it's also not going away. Making the worth of the Children's Justice Center all the more important.
"We need for people to know that this center is operating to help prevent child abuse. We don't just investigate abuse here, we work to stop it," stated the director.
To do this, center employees help give parents respite from stressful situations by simply taking the kids for a given period of time.
"We are not a baby-sitting service," explained Wright. "But we are willing to help, especially in stressful or difficult situations. We are family support, we work with family however we need to in order to prevent abuse."
For example, the center will often take in a family of children when a medical issue has made child care difficult for a given family.
According to the director, the center's crisis nursery has seen a large increase in use since the center moved to fairgrounds road.
While child abuse has not directly increased as of late, the CJC is servicing more children, mostly because they are able to offer a larger variety of services to more and more Carbon County youth.

Taylor Label's Green-Cycle Production and GoGreen Labels Shipped CarbonFree®
The continuing focus on Corporate Social/Environmental Responsibility (CSR) programs requires companies to seek out environmentally sustainable practices in every aspect of their operations. While many businesses rely upon product packaging and shipment to reach their customers, they can "green" these activities through careful selection of shipping products, including the labels they use to address and mail their products.
Carbonfund.org business partner Taylor Label is committed to manufacturing its 'GoGreen' Labels through a process it calls 'Green-Cycle Production'. This process focuses on the use of environmentally sound raw materials, 100% wind-powered production facility, FSC-certified paper and environmentally benign and recyclable adhesives.
In addition, Taylor Label has neutralized 100% of the carbon emissions from shipping its products to customers through the CarbonFree® Shipping program for the past five years. "Carbonfund.org has products specifically suited to our needs. Their partnership managers and website make accessing their services a straight-forward and successful process," explains Lloyd Taylor, President of Taylor Label.
Taylor Label has been voted the "Most Environmentally Progressive Printing Company" at the annual Environmental Printing Awards, developed the industry's first Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)-certified label stock and became the first FSC-certified label manufacturer in North America. Taylor Label is also the founding member of 'Canada's Green Printers', a not-for-profit organization designed to help printers share environmental best-practices within the industry. Their comprehensive and long-term commitment to environmentally-responsible product development, manufacturing and shipment underscore Taylor Label's leadership in sustainability within the shipping label industry.
Arbor Teas 100% CarbonFree for Sixth Year
Even the most environmentally sensitive businesses know that their annual operations contribute to the increase in carbon emissions in our atmosphere, but the businesses that are truly committed to operational sustainability are taking simple and affordable steps to reduce their carbon footprint.
For the past six years, CarbonFree® Business Partner Arbor Teas has neutralized its annual operational emissions and its product shipment emissions in partnership with Carbonfund.org. Arbor Teas retails one of the largest selections of USDA-certified organic loose leaf teas from around the globe, most of which is Fair Trade, through its on-line store. In addition, Arbor Teas is committed to making a positive impact on the environment and has taken many steps to reduce emissions by offering only organic teas, reducing and "greening" its packaging and using renewable energy sources. However, their teas come from all corners of the world, so the shipping emissions are unavoidable. To mitigate these emissions, Arbor Teas has maintained a CarbonFree® Shipping program to offset the carbon footprint of annual product shipment emissions, and to offset all internal operational emissions, by supporting Carbonfund.org's renewable energy, energy efficiency and reforestation projects.
"It makes no sense at all to sell an organic product if the method of delivering it to our customers is environmentally harmful," says Jeremy Lopatin. "Although we do everything we can to reduce our carbon footprint, we're happy to partner with Carbonfund.org to offset what we can't avoid… yet!"
Almost three years ago, Arbor Teas became the first tea company to deliver its full line of organic loose teas in 100% backyard compostable packaging. With the release of this next generation packaging, Arbor Teas advanced its environmental mission, continuing to lead the tea industry through its staunch commitment to sustainable business practices. For the first time ever, tea drinkers are now able to compost their tea leaves AND tea packaging together in their home composting system. This innovative packaging is composed of a cellulose film made from wood pulp sourced from sustainably-managed trees, and the films used for Arbor Teas' new packaging breaks down in a backyard compost setting.
Carbonfund.org applauds Arbor Teas' long-term commitment to maintaining its CarbonFree® Operations and Shipping programs, and to its continuing innovation in the areas of product packaging and sourcing.
Hearts Launches Sustainable Fashion Site with CarbonFree® Shipping
According to a study by the International Journal of Environmental, Cultural, Economic, and Social Sustainability, the issue of sustainability is increasingly important in the apparel industry. Environmentally-conscious fashion designers and retailers are moving away from the wasteful trend of "fast fashion" to focus on eco-fashion practices.
New CarbonFree® Shipping Partner Hearts believes that "conscious consumers create change," and that sustainable fashion is not only environmentally friendly, but also a means of artistic and cultural expression. As Hearts launches its sustainable fashion online store, it has chosen to embed a carbon neutral shipping program as part of its environmentally-responsible commitment.
Through the CarbonFree Shipping Program, Hearts calculates the carbon footprint associated with the inbound and outbound product shipping and makes a corresponding donation to support Carbonfund.org's projects that reduce carbon emissions, in order to lessen the impact of the carbon emissions created by any outbound shipping process. Hearts will be providing an immediate positive effect through investment back into reforestation projects, clean energy development and energy efficiency technologies.
"Hearts understands that environmental and economic sustainability is crucial with any e-commerce platform but especially in the world of fashion where it is our duty and responsibility to offset the carbon emissions when we can," stated Michelle Petro, president. She added, "We are thrilled to partner with Carbonfund.org because they too are our environmental change makers."
"Our CarbonFree Shipping Program offers a simple and affordable solution for responsible retailers such as Hearts to deliver their products worldwide in an environmentally sustainable way," adds Eric Carlson, President of Carbonfund.org. "The CarbonFree Shipping label will assure Hearts' customers that they're choosing to make purchases from a company that is committed to its mission of social consciousness."

Shop for Waco Electricity Rates from Just Energy
Has it been a while since you shopped Waco electricity rates? If so, it may be time to compare electricity prices again. With deregulation, you choose your retail electricity provider (REP). You no longer have to settle for rates provided by the utility and instead can shop for an alternative plan.
Home to Baylor University, the Texas Sports Hall of Fame and the Dr Pepper Museum, there's a lot to like about Waco. Energy choice is just a small part of what makes Waco a great city.
As you shop for Waco electricity rates, take a look at Just Energy's competitive offers. With many energy options, including variable- and fixed-rate electricity plans, Just Energy in Waco can meet the needs of both residents and businesses.
Compare electricity prices in Waco
You wouldn't buy a car without shopping around first, so why do that with your electricity? In Waco, you have many different options to choose from. If you want to find a competitive electricity rate, you first need to understand what's available.
One popular plan type is the variable-rate plan, which lets you pay the market price for electricity. The rates can rise or fall monthly. While some months will have lower rates, variable-rate plans do leave you vulnerable to spikes in electricity prices.
You may want to avoid these rate changes with fixed-rate electricity plans, which offer the same per kilowatt hour rate for the length of the contract. With Just Energy in Waco, you can enjoy price protection from the volatile electricity market for as long as five years.

LOWVILLE Lewis County legislators have voted down a motion by Philip C. Hathway, R-Harrisville, to conduct an audit of the county trail department at a cost of $5,000.
Before the vote Tuesday, which also garnered support from Legislators Paul M. Stanford, D-Watson, and Jerry H. King, R-West Leyden, discussion focused on the cost of and need for the audit, which would include an inventory of county-owned equipment, as well as financial records since the inception of the department in 2006.
Mr. Hathway said he would like an objective outside agency to conduct the audit, while Legislator Richard C. Lucas, R-Barnes Corners, suggested Recreational Trail Coordinator Jacqueline L. Mahoney could perform the task.
Mrs. Mahoney was appointed in May following the termination of the former trail coordinator, Robert C. Diehl, for charging the county for gravel delivered to his home for personal use. He was found guilty earlier this month of third-degree attempted grand larceny, first-degree offering a false instrument for filing and official misconduct.
Mrs. Mahoney, in attendance at the meeting, said she was too busy with current projects and grant work to tackle the audit.
Calling the proposed audit a witch hunt, Mr. Lucas asked legislators what action they could take if the audit discovered missing material or equipment, as it would not prove where it went.
Why would we pay for an audit to find out something is missing from four years ago? Its a waste of money, he said. If we feel there are issues, now is the time to keep better track of whats going in and out.
In discussing the cost of the proposed audit, Chairman Michael A. Tabolt, R-Croghan, said, Id like to see $5,000 go into new projects, not old ones.
Mr. Hathway said if money was the issue, a full-time temporary employee could be hired to conduct an in-house audit under the guidance of county Treasurer Patricia L. OBrien, an idea that received little consideration.
Following the meeting, Mr. Hathway responded to Mr. Lucass comments calling the audit a witch hunt.
If I was trying to do that, I would have requested it at the time Mr. Diehl was arrested, he said. I didnt want to taint the legal process. By his own admission, the former trail coordinators record-keeping was less than stellar.
When asked what prompted the request for an audit now, Mr. Hathway said, Its never a bad time to do due diligence when we are spending other peoples money.
The countys trail department operated in 2013 with a budget of $164,000, which included an anticipated $80,000 from sales of trail permits.

TEAM USA PASSES ON KYLE OKPOSOShare your subdued reaction here
6:15 pm, Boston: Brian Burke's comments from Fenway Park are below. My reaction:
The first thing you realize about Team USA's decision to pass on Kyle Okposo is that Scott Gordon clearly had no say. For the last 100 games, Gordon has played Okposo in every situation and in just about every position except goal. The Islanders are not world-beaters, but Gordon coaches Okposo like he's world-class.
I'll just say what I told several writers on press row after the USA announcement. I'm a big fan of David Backes and Ryan Callahan. However, it is completely impossible to have watched Okposo, Callahan and Backes play this season – as Brian Burke said his committee did dilligently – and determine that Okposo was the player to keep off the team.
On the positive side for the Islanders, this will make Okposo a better and more rested player this season and a better player for years to come.
You can count on Okposo to be extremely polite in his response later tonight. That's the kind of young man he is, and it's also smart personal marketing. Although I don't think he will be the first forward Burke calls if one gets injured, he's probably in the top three.
Last thought, separate from the Okposo argument. I don't see Team USA challenging for a medal with this lineup, even if Ryan Miller makes miracles.
5:30 pm, Boston: Brian Burke comments:
- On Kyle Okposo: "I think Kyle Okposo is going to be a very important player for USA Hockey for years to play. He's a big player, skilled player, very coachable. No minuses. Just not experienced enough at this point."
Burke cited RW Ryan Callahan for his foot-speed and said he was top-five in the NHL in hits.
- "It's critical that guys who were left off play hard and stay in the drug-testing program. There will be guys injured and they need to be ready."
Burke said his committee contacted all players who have been on the Olympic team before or were a part of the evaluation camp were contacted and told to keep their heads up and continue to play their best.
- "Chris Drury was picked because he is Chris Drury."
Burke added that USA wanted five centers. He called Joe Pavelski "a Swiss Army knife as a hockey player."
4:20 pm, Boston – Chris Drury is a center and he has scored plenty of huge goals in his career, so don't make this about him. I have some thoughts and will share them after I get through all this Winter Classic stuff.

|Governor, Homeland Security chief urge residents to prepare for hurricanes
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Monday, 18 June 2007 19:56
Governor Mike Easley and Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff are urging North Carolinians to prepare themselves for this year's hurricane season by stocking emergency supplies and making disaster plans with their families.
Easley said forecasters anticipate "above average storms." According to National Weather Service projections, 13 to 17 tropical storms are expected to form in the Atlantic this season, with seven to ten of them becoming hurricanes. Three to five of those storms are expected to be in the strong category.

OFA Girls Swimming Coach Ben Fleahman credits his team for swimming a lot of fast times in Wednesdays home meet with undefeated Canton.
Leading the Devils were Susie Morrow and Julia Mullin.
Morrow led the 100 freestyle and posted the best 100 backstroke time of the season at 1:09.47. Mullin enjoyed a break-through day winning the 200 individual medley with a 2:33.82 which represented a drop of five seconds in her personal best and the fifth best time in OFA history. She also swam a personal best taking second in the 100 butterfly and anchored Hunter Shaver, Susie Morrow and Chelsea Montroy on the 200 free relay which swam its best time of the season (1:52.20).
Julia Mullin really had a big day and overall we had a lot of fast times, said Fleahman.
Canton is just a very strong team.
Many of the OFA times were superceded by the power and depth of the Golden Bears who broke away early and cruised to a 113-54 victory.
Fueling the break-away was a first place finish by the medley relay team of Macy Huntley, Katherine Bailey, Clare Olin and Dasha LaPoint and 1-2-3 finish in the 200 freestyle by Angelina Domena, Kirsten Larabee and Breda McCormick.
Domena, a Madrid-Waddington student swimming through a merger agreement, LaPoint and Rachel Huntley led the Bears by figuring in four first place performances.
Domena also led a 1-2-3 in the 500 freestyle and swam the winning 200 and 400 freestyle relay teams. LaPoint led the 50 freestyle, the 100 butterfly and swam legs of the 200 medley and 200 freestyle relays. Rachel Huntley led the 100 breaststroke and 100 backstroke and swam on the 200 freestyle and 200 medley relays.
LaPoint led the 50 freestyle and swam on the medley relay and 200 free relay and McCormick swam on both freestyle relays.
Other individual seconds in the OFA cause came from Chelsea Montroy in the 50 freestyle and Natalie Perrigo in the 100 breaststroke. The Lady Devils (7-4) will complete their NAC season on Friday by hosting St, Lawrence Central in their Senior Day meet.
In a meet held last week OFA downed Gouverneur 117-50 and won all 11 races.
Leading the way was the 200 medley relay team of Julia Mullin (50, 500 fs, 400 fs relay), Susie Morrow (200 fs, 100 butterfly, 400 fs relay) Natalie Perrigo (100 breaststroke, 200 fs relay) and Madi Bresett (100 fs, 200 fs relay) who all figured in multiple victories.
Haley Snodgrass led the 100 backstroke, Jillian Hogle and Claire Dufore swam on the 400 freestyle relay and Hannah Berg and Elizabeth Sovie swam on the 200 freestyle relay.
