SUWANEE -- Class starts Monday for 331 new students at Georgia Campus -- Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.
In total, enrollment at the college is projected at 687 for the 2011-12 academic year, compared to 86 students in attendance when the campus first opened in 2005.

PSR has a long-standing reputation of academic excellence in serving students with wide-ranging professional, academic, and personal goals. We offer Master of Divinity, Master of Arts in Social Transformation, Master of Theological Studies, and Doctor of Ministry degrees, a joint Master of Arts degree with the GTU, and seven certificate programs. In addition, we provide ways for clergy, lay leaders, and others to engage in theological education without enrolling in degree or certificate programs, including the Summer Session, January Intersession, and the Earl Lectures and Pastoral Conference.
PSR students go on to serve as ordained parish pastors, hospital and prison chaplains, youth directors and Christian educators, teachers in high schools and colleges, social service administrators, liturgical artists, and community organizers.
Some return to previous careers in law, health and medicine, teaching, business, and other professions with a renewed sense of vocation, and bring new insights of ministry and the wisdom of religious traditions from ethics and scripture to bear in their work.
All students benefit from our flexible curriculum that allows students to supplement PSR course offerings with hundreds of courses offered at other Graduate Theological Union member seminaries.
Curriculum Overview
Pacific School of Religion has developed an innovative curriculum that combines grounding in traditional fields of theological study with contextual education, cross-cultural immersion, and spiritual and professional development. All PSR degree programs seek to apply the subjects learned in the classroom to the context of the broader community, including global cultures, world religions, and the arts.
PSR's curriculum developed from longstanding discussions, often reaching back to the social upheavals of the 1960s, about the place of theological education in a changing world. In 1994, the junior faculty at PSR issued a statement calling for an educational approach that placed less emphasis on divisions between subjects and more emphasis on the integrative work faced by students entering professional ministry. The faculty also stressed the need to prepare students for an increasingly pluralistic society, stating that, "A monolithic western mode of theological education is no longer practical to prepare our students for ministry." After several years of further study and development, PSR launched its new curriculum in 2004, and continues to hone its pioneering vision for educating the next generation of progressive religious leaders.

The Doctor is washed up - literally - on an alien beach with only intelligent crabs and a madman for company.
How can he possibly rescue Peri who was lost at sea the same time as he and the TARDIS? But Peri has problems of her own. "Rescued" from drowning by an intelligent sponge growth, she has been adopted by the life form as its own personal God.
As the denizens of the beach come under increasingly vicious attack, the Doctor must discover the truth in time to save all their lives.

From the opening scene of drunk Billy randomly chasing a penguin around his father's mansion ("It's too damn hot for a penguin to just be walkin' around!") through his ultimately triumphant academic decathlon ("Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it."), BILLY MADISON is simultaneously one of the most ridiculous and one of the most insanely quotable films of all time. Before Adam Sandler mercilessly destroyed the souls of a generation of people too ignorant to avoid JACK AND JILL, he spent his years immediately following SNL filming two masterpieces: HAPPY GILMORE and BILLY MADISON. And while HAPPY is undoubtedly a great film (that we'll be doing something fun with in the near future, too), BILLY MADISON has always been the one that lives in my soul.
If there's a swan looking at me? I tell him to stop immediately. If I'm packing my lunch? I'm always sure to include a Snack Pack. If you're hungry waiting for a late dinner? I'll tell you that you should have had some delicious Triscuit crackers in the car. And if you pee yourself? I'll totally splash my pants and then tell all the other kids that peeing yourself is the COOLEST. Seriously, I've got your back.

- not bad but lacking by buckeye2525 on 2/8/2013
It is a nice read, and easy to understand but I feel it is a loose translation I prefer ESV, NLT, NIV OR NKJV
- I love this version. by SukisMom on 1/17/2013
The format is easy to follow and I love the extra notes. My mom also bought one and really loves it.
- A new favorite by Chris on 5/18/2012
There are many bible purists who insist on the KJV or nothing at all, and that is fine. For me, I like to try new things, and this version is different. The Voice is setup in such a way as to allow the reader to follow conversations and quotes a lot easier, it does not change the meaning at all. The book refers to Jesus as the Annointed One and to GOD as the Eternal One. This is a refreshing new way to read the bible, there are copious notes throughout, just a real pleasure to read.

Clippers 102, Toronto 98
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Sat, 02/09/08, 10:55am:
The Clippers without Elton Brand are a collection of ballplayers either pre- (Chris Kaman, Al Thornton) or post (Sam Cassell, Cuttino Mobley, Tim Thomas) prime. The one obvious exception, of course, is Corey Maggette. At 28, Corey is playing for what will promise to be the most lucrative contract of his career. But since January 1, he's also done something else: Corey has made the season a referendum on his ability to be not only a free-lancing playmaker, but an offensive linchpin who can sculpt a game to his advantage. Since January 1, Corey Maggette hasn't shot below 50% in a single game. He's also 15 for his last 22 behind the arc.
Last night, Corey tied his season-high 35 points [his previous 35 point effort came in an overtime loss to Memphis a couple of weeks ago] on 9-15 shooting from the FG. Here's how those 9 FGs materialized:
- [1st, 7:13] Corey's first FGM comes off a Toronto brainfart/miscommunication on a pretty lax S/R [Corey's really just running interference here] with Brevin Knight and Corey, but it's probably not a coincidence that aforementioned brainfart occurred while the Clips are in semi-transition. Knight, guarded by Jose Calderon, breezes his way up the right side, dribbling toward Corey. Corey actually runs between Knight and Calderon, who – to no surprise – is playing a few feet off Knight. As Calderon tries to run under he pick, but Anthony Parker [normally a very sound defender] doesn't allow Calderon enough room, and the two of them collide as Parker tries to chase Corey to the top of the circle. Credit Chris Kaman here, too, because as Parker tries to close, he runs into a nice Kaman pin. Corey sinks the open 3PM.
- [2nd, 8:15] Credit the transition offense again. Corey comes down with the defensive board, gets it ahead to Dan Dickau. Toronto is all over the place on the backpedal. Corey finds nobody anywhere near the arc, so he plants himself there. Dickau sees it immediately, kicks the ball back to Corey, who sinks the 3PM.
- [2nd, 7:45] Very next possession. The first option on this play seems to be an off-ball down screen for Al Thornton, but Andrea Bargnani sniffs it out. But there's still :14 left on the shot clock [isn't that a nice luxury? It's amazing what can happen if you actually start your offensive set the instant you cross the timeline]. What happens next is really nice. Corey has been hanging out on the baseline, but when the first option dies, Josh Powell – who is set up at the top of the key – sets a strong, strong down screen on Corey's man, Carlos Delfino. Corey is able to pop up from the baseline to a wide open space at the top of the key. His shot is silky tonight. Easy 18-footer. Josh Powell helps make it happen.
- [2nd, 6:48] Nothing really to say here because KTLA hasn't even come out of the cutaway before Dickau gets it up for another Maggette 3PFG in transition, this time on the left arc.
- [2nd, 4:33] Nothing fancy here. Corey holds it deliberately out on the left wing against Jamario Moon. He then starts a hard drive left…but pulls up suddenly at about 18 feet. Before Moon can put on the breaks, Maggette has already elevated for the J.
- [2nd, 3:13] Child's play. Corey has established his long-range shot tonight and Moon, rightfully, plays him here very tightly way out on the arc. A quick ball-fake from Corey. He gets Moon to bite, which opens up a clear lane to his left all the way to the rim. Easy layup.
- [3rd, 9:19] The Clips are clearly trying to work something for Mobley here, but Parker is a capable defender and has no trouble running through the Kaman screen. Thornton, who holds the ball up top along the right arc, can't find anything, so he scoots the rock to Corey, who is staked out on the left arc. Corey dumps it into Kaman (in front of him at the top of the key) for that patented give and go. Moon is a millisecond slow to react as Corey runs to Chris' left. Chris flips Corey the ball as he passes. Corey stops, pops and sinks the open 20-footer. Pretty stuff.
- [3rd, 4:28] This is a big possession. The Clippers have managed to shave what was just recently a 12 point Toronto lead down to six, but need to sustain that momentum. Knight brings the rock up the court in transition. Again, the Clips are quick to start their set – much better than a month ago. It goes into Kaman off the right mid-post. The double comes quickly from Calderon, but Knight takes advantage of the trap by diving to the hoop. Kaman, who is getting so much better in these situations, picks this up immediately, and tosses the ball over his two defenders directly to Knight. Delfino then closes on Knight under the basket…but this leaves Corey wide open in the corner. With the Clippers well-spaced, Anthony Parker can't rotate quickly enough from Mobley. Corey sinks the uncontested 3PM – his fourth.
This possession is all about (1) Recognition (2) Spacing.
- [3rd, 0:22] Not to take anything away from Corey here, but the Raptors are just ridiculously crossed-up. Knight comes down the far side in transition off a T.J. Ford miss. Mobley runs down the center lane, while Maggette floats down the near side. Jason Kapono, backpedaling, gestures to Rasho Nesterovic, who doesn't know where he's supposed to be. Kapono at this point is the only defender within eight feet of either Mobley or Maggette. Knight passes it over to Mobley and, sensibly, Kapono realizes he's the only Raptor on the court with the ability to close on Cat. But this leaves Corey uncovered. Mobley slings it over to Corey who hits a wide, wide, wide open 3PM [5-5].
That's the last of Corey's FGs, but he hits four FTs in the game's closing seconds to seal the W.
How about that driving slam by Thornton at 1:30 to give the Clips a six-point lead at 1:30? His first step is a monster and tonight he does a much better job of seeing the full court in the context of what he wants to do with his drive.
I don't think the Clippers as presently constituted can be a running team. But a middle-ground exists. And given the difficulties the Clips have at working shots, they should use the transition game to get themselves at least two good options in a set, instead of waiting until :15 and getting only one.

The winter storm closing in on New England on Friday has canceled thousands of flights, including many out of Orlando International Airport.
The storm could bring 2 feet of snow to cities like Boston and will commence Friday afternoon, the National Weather Service predicts, lasting into Saturday.
Airlines have already canceled more than 3,200 flights to and from the affected region, and Amtrak has canceled many trips in the Northeast corridor. At OIA Friday afternoon, more than 74 flights were canceled, affecting American Airlines, United Airlines, Delta, JetBlue, Airtran and Southwest Airlines.
Local 6 spoke to some stranded passengers at OIA, including more than 60 classmates from Leonardo Da Vinci High School in Buffalo, who say they're anxiously waiting for more flights to open up.
"It's really hard since we haven't seen our families all week and we just want to be home," one student said. "Our teachers are working really hard to find us flight so for now we're just sleeping on the ground."

PAWTUCKET — Gov. Lincoln Chafee's eyes widened when he was shown the chock-full January activities calendar for the Anchor Recovery Community Center in Pawtucket. On any given day, there were six or seven entries for meetings that ranged from Alcoholics Anonymous and quit smoking clinics to health lectures and specialized yoga classes.
Jim Gillen, Anchor Recovery Community Center's energetic director of recovery services, joked that even he has to to consult the calendar sometimes to keep up with what's going on. However, he explained to the governor that when talking about recovery from substance abuse and mental health issues, "one size doesn't fit all" when to comes to support services. The center's agenda, he said, "is community driven. It goes where it goes...wherever the help is needed."
Chafee toured the Anchor Recovery Community Center's downtown Pawtucket location on Wednesday. He had been invited by officials of The Providence Center, which sponsors the facility.
Anchor quietly opened in a vacant store front on Main Street in December 2010 as Rhode Island's first "recovery community center." Since that time, officials say the facility has logged more than 125,000 individual visits and has been an integral component in helping people maintain their long-term recovery from drug and alcohol abuse and mental health issues.
As the only facility of its type in the state, Anchor has functioned as a welcoming clubhouse of sorts for individuals who have battled substance abuse and mental health problems. Among the wide ranging resources offered are peer-to-peer coaching, 12-step groups, support groups training, vocational and career services, case management, housing support and a lending library. The center also sponsors a number of health and wellness activities, including yoga, and regularly hosts social events geared towards a positive and sober lifestyle.

Irish Internet Radio and TV from Dublin, Ireland.
The Chapel Royal in Dublin Castle was the official Church of Ireland chapel of the Household of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland from 1814 until the creation of the Irish Free State in 1922. In 1943, the church became the property of the Irish Army, and the former Church of Ireland chapel became a Roman Catholic Church, under the name the Church of the Most Holy Trinity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dublin_Castle
The Garda (Police) Museum is situated in the 13th century Norman 'Record Tower'. This is the last intact tower not only of the Castle but also of medieval Dublin itself and was once a top security jail for state prisoners. http://www.dublincastle.ie/VisitorFacilities/TheGardaPoliceMuseum/

Once again in 'Terminator Salvation', Skynet and its army of Terminators threaten humanity with extinction. Set in post–apocalyptic 2018, the heroes of the film are not surprisingly both men – John Connor and Marcus Wright – who are fighting predominantly male-body inspired Terminators. Hollywood's use of men as action heroes is nothing new (e.g. Sylvester Stallone, John Wayne), but what is particularly concerning is its continued fascination with idealized forms of men and masculinity. For example, men tend to be depicted as physically and emotionally tough, courageous, unfazed in the face of death and predominantly heterosexual. Such portrayals often serve as reference points for men to construct and regulate appropriate masculine behaviours whilst continuing to sustain conventional notions of gender difference. Unfortunately though, representing men in such narrow terms fails to embrace men's own lived experiences and helps to sustain the marginalization of other masculinities and women.

Comments about Taye Drums RockPro RP622C Limited Edition 6-Piece Drum Set:
This drumset has a lot of surpisingly nice features. The snare throw is a different design than Ive seen. I dont think it will fall down on you if it wears out, unlike other old sets Ive played on. The snare also comes with nylon straps instead of those cheap plastic ones, thoughtful of Taye to put them in.
The hardware pack is really good. The two stands come with plastic washers that also have a sleeve built in to keep the cymbal from rubbing the metal stand.The hi hat stand has different settings which change how low the pedal can go. And the footpedal can pivot when the screw that adjusts the legs is loosened, so i can fit it right next to my left double bass pedal.
The only flaw was the single pedal this kit comes with. Its a pretty good pedal actually, but the screw which adjusts the clamp is sticking up right under the pedal, so I get this loud click every time I hit the bass drum. Other than that, I love this drumset. For a brand I don't hear about, this is superb quality.

In Florida humidity eats drums, the chrome skin is great protection and gives off a great sound and all around great tone. You can't beat the quality for such a great price. I'll be adding the Gibraltar Spider cymbal rack and the overall chrome effect should be exceptional. The great thing is it comes with great cymbal hardware that will always come in handy till the Gibraltar Spider comes in.

Comments about Taye Drums RockPro RP622C Limited Edition 6-Piece Drum Set:
As a music teacher and amatuer performer, I wanted something that had a decent sound for a low price. Picked this kit up at a drum shop and have loved it every day since! I play at church and alternate with a drummer who shelled out $1,500 for a kit that he doesn't like as much as this one. I had to change the heads, but with some nicely tuned Remos you won't be able to tell this kit is under $700. After a while I had to change the snare too. Maybe it's just me, but I'm not a fan. The snare is ok and more than playable, but you'd be better off looking for something a bit nicer. If you're like me and want to make a really nice sound but can't afford a $4k DW kit, take a look into these. You won't be disappointed.
Comments about Taye Drums RockPro RP622C Limited Edition 6-Piece Drum Set:
Like I said I researched this product extensively before purchasing, the looks are awesome, beautiful color, I did have to put "ring control" on the stock heads but they sound great! I did replace the foot bass drum head with an Aquarian Super Kick II and it has the coveted deep thud that drummers find appealing. The purchase also included an 10" tom, hi hat stand, foot pedal, a boom cymbal stand and straight stand.
Tom's adjust to any position and position can be locked into place and position can be changed with out any effort.
All the hardware feels robust to the touch, fit and finish are excellent. Everything feels solid when locked into place.
I'm 54 years old, this is my first new kit so I researched many different brand of drums before deciding to buy Taye. Dollar for dollar this kit offered far more and is a far superior product compared to the big drum names.
Comments about Taye Drums RockPro RP622C Limited Edition 6-Piece Drum Set:
Before I played these drums, I put on new remo heads top and bottom, and tuned them. WOW! These drums sound excellent!
These drums are great. You can adjust the toms to any position.

Elena G. Van Eenenaam, 76, former womens club champion at Ives Hill and three-time winner of the Watertown womens city golf tournament, died Sunday. The wife of Dr. David Van Eenenaam and mother of four children, she excelled at the game for years, racking up a number of late career titles. Her funeral is at 11 a.m. today at First Presbyterian Church, 403 Washington Street.
Friends and competitors remember fondly her character both on and off the course.
People my age that started caddying, you watched the people youre working for and you try to emulate the ones that play well, said Dan OLeary, the golf pro at Ives Hill from 1972 to 2000. Well, Ellie was a role model like that. I never saw her do anything in 40 years that she would have to apologize for.
Van Eenenaam probably played five days a week, every week, O Leary said.
Lanie Gerken, who played in the U.S. Womens Open and is the golf professional at Ives Hill, remembers Mrs. Van Eenenaam with affection.
We grew up playing golf against one another, she said. I was the young kid on the block coming up ... playing the club championships with her and city tournaments also, and Im sure somewhere in the past we came to battle somewhere along the way.
And the young kid won out, unfortunately, Gerken said, laughing.
Gerken, who also played in four Canadian Opens, used to jump on the trampoline with Van Eenenaams children before bursting onto the Watertown golf scene with a 1978 victory in the city womens tournament at the age of 15. She said that Mrs. Van was humble and didnt want to be the center of attention.
You never saw her get razzled but you know there was that competitive edge. She didnt want to lose, Gerken said. We wont put her in any club-throwing contests but she always wanted to get better.
Van Eenenaams children said that they discovered a box of golf medals their mother had won when she was a junior player in Michigan. They said their mother had never told them how successful she was at golf as a teenager.
Despite her success in city tournaments, she had to battle for her trophies, OLeary said.
First of all there was a girl named Mary Kennedy who became the golf coach at Penn State who won it all the time when she was here, he said. Then Lanie Gerken ... when Lanie was around she won everything. ... So when the young people get out of the way, Ellie had a couple of shots at it.
Van Eenenaam was also an active member of several philanthropic organizations.
Jane Schmitt, Samaritan Medical Centers director of volunteer services, said Van Eenenaam served as a mentor and was an active fund-raiser and a volunteer in the hospital gift shop, where she came in every Monday very faithfully. Eventually becoming the gift shop chairwoman.
Schmitt, who also played golf with Van Eenenaam, said, Ellie was helpful to me when I first started as the director of volunteer services. She was a real support to me.
Mary Sanford knew Van Eenenaam for 45 years. Their husbands were both surgeons and arrived in Watertown within a year of each other the Van Eenenaams the latecomers in 1968.
The two women played golf together, but she was a much better golfer than me, Sanford said.
They worked together as volunteers at the First Presbyterian Church, where Van Eenenaam served as a deacon, and were co-chairwomen of the Bicentennial Committee in 2003. Both women were involved with and served terms as president of the PEO Sisterhood, which raises money to help women obtain education. They also helped organize the Medical Scholarship Ball to raise money for students entering the medical field. Though Sanford said the last ball was in 1980, the organization still raises enough money to provide 10, $1,000 scholarships every year.
Everything that Ellie has worked on shes worked on with pride and enthusiasm and I can say that because we worked so closely together, Sanford said.
Van Eenenaam also volunteered at the Jefferson County Historical Society.
Judy George, who was in charge of programs and volunteers at the society for 17 years, said Van Eenenaam was always very willing to help.
Patricia Stabino, a regular golf partner, said that even though she wasnt always able to keep up with Van Eenenaam, we just had such a good time together. She was just such a great person and a great golfer and a great friend of mine.
She had friends wherever she went, Sanford said. She was a friendly competitor and always looked great on the golf course, too. So many of her friends and family are coming to this funeral. ... Its wonderful that they have so many friends coming from all over.

Family Counseling Service of Northern New York will offer a 10-session support group for people struggling with overeating issues, beginning in mid-October.
Disordered Eating Without Labels seeks to offer initial treatment for people with an eating compulsion. The group will be led by Nancy E. Stark, mental health clinician.
With the use of any substance drugs, alcohol and food, either over- or under-eating, theres an underlying theme of self-medication through using the substance of choice, she said. The perspective is once we stop self-medicating with our substance of choice, we can identify and work through the emotions that are keeping us from living a whole life.
The group, which will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Tuesdays at the agency, 120 Washington St., Suite 510, beginning Oct. 15, will focus on sharing clinical information about emotions, individual processing and some peer support. Ms. Stark said one of the six following emotions will be discussed during each session: guilt, shame, helplessness, disappointment, confusion and loneliness. Through the group, she said, people will learn to distinguish when an emotion is rational or irrational.
Emotions are our own internal compass or radar, she said. When events happen that mess up our intended radar, we use different coping strategies.
For group participants, she said, that is overeating.
Just say no does not work, Ms. Stark said. Lets face it, food is harder because we have to have food. With substances, its do it or dont. With food, its much trickier. Thats whats keeping it under wraps food is not illegal. It makes it less visible and you wont be arrested; however, you will die earlier, be disabled earlier and be discriminated against in subtle and not-so-subtle ways.
Ms. Stark knows all too well about the cycle of addiction and recovery. She has been in recovery from substance use for more than 20 years, and at one point inadvertently switched gears and then was losing weight too quickly. Running the group, she said, enhances her recovery and keeps her balanced.
Balance is what she hopes Disordered Eating Without Labels participants find after their 10-week sessions are up. If more help is needed, Family Counseling Service, or other local agencies, may be able to offer participants one-on-one services, Ms. Stark said.
Mental health help is only one component of treatment for people with an eating disorder or food addiction, Ms. Stark said. Professional help also often is sought through a physician and a nutritionist.
Family Counseling Service is looking for a minimum of six participants for the group, to help cover initial expenses. Sessions are $12 each, and participants are asked to follow the program through to the end. For more information, call the agency at 782-4483.

Rangers @ Devils
Prudential Center, 7:00 Friday
Rangers record: 31-24-4
Devils Record: 23-30-4
The six-game losing streak is in the past, and now the
Rangers have a great chance to put some distance between themselves and the
playoff cutoff line with their match against the rival New Jersey Devils
tomorrow night.
But it won't be easy. After a disastrous start to the season, New Jersey has been a different team in the
second half and the Devils are 13-1-2. Their current pace is obviously unsustainable, but New Jersey has been so good that they have
begun to creep into the playoff conversation. Though Martin Brodeur has returned to practice, the Rangers, in all
likelihood, will face Johan Hedberg tomorrow night. But that might not be an advantage, Hedberg
has been phenomenal lately. All the
Devils' veteran forwards that were invisible for months seem to have found
their games at the same time. Led by
Ilya Kovalchuk, the Devils are playing like the dominant team many expected at
the beginning of the year.
As for the Rangers, this a perfect opportunity to build
momentum, and at the same time they can put a serious damper on the Devils'
recent success. Other than the power
play, the biggest single key for New
York is for Marian Gaborik to build off his goal
tonight. He will be the guy tomorrow
night, because the Rangers desperately need No. 10 to become their go-to-guy as
Kovalchuk has been for the Devils.
It will be interesting to see how the Rangers respond. They have had no trouble getting up for back
to backs this season, and it helps that they're playing the rival Devils, but
tonight's bout was emotional and physical. It's conceivable that the Rangers could start the game stale, but the
Devils no longer let teams get away with that. The Blueshirts must recognize that the Devils are not the patsy they
faced earlier in the season.

Americana, Bold and Old in Savannah, Part of "What's New", says retro Thunderbird Inn
Savannah, Georgia, is an old town with a new spirit! Thunderbird Inn is thrilled to be a celebrant of what's new about the old, and champion of retro Savannah!

The inn boasts new interior paint (inspired by authentic historic Savannah colors and Thunderbird's original paint), and a/c and heat units with popular remote controls, plus hot popcorn on arrival. Those updates are not all that is inspiring guests.
Not only a nostalgic thought, "old is new again" is on-trend. Continue reading

MALONE Thousands, possibly even hundreds of thousands, of bees are under the siding of the house being painted at 12 Morton St.
Theres close to 2,000 of them in there, said Ryan Holmes of Steves House Painting, who said he looked through one of the holes on the outside of the house.
Its pretty bad, he said. Its nothing Id want to tangle with.
Steve Dustin, owner of Steves House Painting, said he believes there could be 200,000 to 300,000 bees behind the siding.
Jerid Maes, another Steves House Painting worker, said the bees were coming from a corner of a dormer of the house, and Mr. Holmes said they also were coming from the top and corner of a door frame.
Mr. Maes said the bees havent hindered the painters work. My boss had to wear a bee suit to paint the corner of the dormer, he said, adding that the bees didnt seem aggressive. If you bother them, then theyll bother you, he said.
Mr. Dustin said he had to purchase the $69 bee suit for the job.
This is the first time the house has had a bee problem, said Lisa Minnich, whose father, David, has lived in the house for more than 40 years.
One day last month, there were a bunch that were in the house, she said.
That was our first clue we had a problem.
Ms. Minnich said the 20 to 25 bees that came inside that day werent aggressive. They were just exploring, she said.
Beekeeper Whitney B. McDermut, Bombay, said it is normal for bees to find new areas to create hives. They do it periodically, he said. Its the natural way of producing new hives.
He said they also do it when the current hive gets too crowded. The bees swarm when they get ready to find a new hive location.
They send out scouts and the scouts report with what they find, Mr. McDermut said. All it takes is a small hole.
Mr. McDermut said the Morton Street hive is not far from the old hive. They decided that the hole (in the siding) provided exactly what they needed, he said.
Because honeybees are a protected species, a professional has to come in and remove them, Ms. Minnich said.
Mr. McDermut said that while there is no law against killing the bees, its better to have them taken away by a beekeeper. Though he is a beekeeper himself, he said he usually gets rid of hives that are in trees, not in homes.
Mr. McDermut said honeybees are protected because there is a parasite, the Varroa mite, that has been killing them. The mites are a serious problem, he said.
Though the honeybee has not yet built up a tolerance to this mite as it has with the tracheal mite, Mr. McDermut said, its only a matter of time.
Sooner or later, the host can tolerate the parasite, he said.
Mr. McDermut said he is trying to find someone who can help Mr. Dustin, but has been unsuccessful.
Mr. Dustin said he also is looking for a beekeeper, but would consider removing the bees himself if no one else will. He said he has worked with bees and studied them for 37 years.
I just hope someone can help, Ms. Minnich said. Id rather not kill the bees, because theyre endangered.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Retailers started the new year on a cautionary note as chains from Family Dollar Stores Inc. and Target Corp. to Kohl's Corp. and Limited Brands Inc. missed expectations for the critical December holiday sales.
While rosier tallies at retailers including Costco Wholesale Corp., Nordstrom Inc. and Gap Inc.'s Old Navy ended up leading the average gain to beat Wall Street's expectations, analysts cautioned some of those sales may have come at the expense of profit-eroding discounts.
"Retailers accelerated markdown activity" in the absence of early holiday demand, said Brian McGough of Hedgeye.
Discounter Target TGT, -0.32% which reported flat December sales; teen clothing retailer Wet Seal Inc.; Macy's Inc. M, -0.20% Kohl's Corp. KSS, -1.91% and women's clothing retailer Cato Corp. either cut their fourth-quarter outlooks or said quarterly results will be at or near the low end of their previous guidance range.
Family Dollar US:FDO and Bebe Stores Inc., both of which don't typically report monthly sales, also gave disappointing outlooks following December holiday sale shortfalls. Bebe, for instance, reported a 15% comparable traffic drop in the quarter ended Dec. 29.
"This suggests some of the sales may have come at the expense of some margin," said Ken Perkins of Retail Metrics.
In another trouble spot, Barnes & Noble Inc. BKS, -1.40% reported an 8.2% drop in comparable sales during the nine-week period ended Dec. 29, hurt by fewer visits to its stores and lower unit sales of its Nook e-reader device. The company, which has been plowing money into its Nook franchise, said it's examining why sales slowed after a strong Black Friday business. Barnes & Noble's Nook a lifeline?
In all, December same-store sales excluding drug stores rose 4.8%, above the 3.4% already lowered Wall Street consensus, Retail Metrics data showed. The percentage of chains that beat and missed views was about evenly split.
"There's caution and uncertainty," said Barbara Kahn, Wharton School's Marketing professor and director of its Jay H. Baker Retailing Center. However, with improved job and housing market pictures, "there seems to be some positive, steady signs."
Pawn Shops Enter Holiday-Shopping Fray
As retailers like Tiffany, Saks, Best Buy and Wal-Mart vie for holiday sales, customers are being drawn away by a growing crop of competitors: pawn shops. Andria Cheng reports. Photo: Getty Images.
Family Dollar shares slumped 12%. Victoria's Secret parent Limited US:LTD fell 5.4%. Stage Stores Inc. tumbled 9.9% after its sales also missed estimates.
December's results were overshadowed by the fiscal cliff talk that sapped consumer confidence. The cloud lingers this year as a payroll tax increase may hurt consumer demand, especially at the low end, while it remains to be seen how the ultra-rich may be affected with their expected higher income tax rate, analysts said.
Family Dollar Chief Executive Howard Levine, for instance, said the holiday season was "more challenging" than the retailer expected as "customers faced increasing financial uncertainty."
Unleashing deeper discounts
With two extra days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, retailers, without must-have items to entice shoppers, were hurt by a lull after the Thanksgiving weekend fervor as more shoppers procrastinated in their holiday buying, analysts said.
"Sales came late in the holiday shopping season and, as a result, were at deeper discounts than planned," said Kohl's President and Chief Executive Kevin Mansell, adding that its December sales gain of 3.4% missed company plan. "We are taking the necessary markdowns in the fourth quarter to manage our inventory."

Monsanto offers Brazilian farmers who drop RR1 claims discount on new soybean technology
July 24, 2013 | Rebecca Coons
Monsanto says it is offering Brazilian farmers a 16% discount on its newly launched Intacta Roundup Ready (RR) 2 Pro soybeans if they drop patent claims alleging Monsanto improperly collected up to $150 million in royalties for its first-generation RR seeds. The original lawsuit—filed against Monsanto in September 2012 by a consortium of farming groups and Famato, the agricultural federation of Brazil's leading soybean-producing state, Mato Grasso—alleged Monsanto's intellectual property (IP) rights on RR1 expired 1 September 2010 and requested...

CANTON - Agencies in Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties that serve people with developmental disabilities know their Medicaid funding cut has been reduced from 6 percent to 4.5 percent, a move their leaders said is still devastating.
The percentage was approved as part of the recently-adopted state budget, which aims to reduce Medicaid funding through the state Office for People with Developmental Disabilities by $90 million. Now, the only trouble is local agencies are unsure where the 4.5 percent cuts will come from, as a statewide committee will break that down within the next few months.
Now its a waiting game to see how its supposed to be done, said Aida A. Mariani, director of public relations and development at Oneida-Lewis NYSARC. When we (first) heard the 6 percent, the executive team started to meet to see where we could streamline things. We have had this cost-savings initiative thats been ongoing.
If the 4.5 percent cut is across the board, the agency will lose about $1.1 million in Medicaid funding, and Jefferson Rehabilitation Center, Watertown, could lose $844,000. JRC Executive Director Howard W. Ganter said although the funding cut was reduced, its still significant.
I dont think theres as much fat out there as (Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo) thinks there is, Mr. Ganter said.
Both he and Disabled Persons Action Organization Executive Director Cynthia L. FitzPatrick said they want to keep services for people with developmental disabilities intact. Both agencies are considering changing employee benefits, as a way to save money. As of Wednesday, Mr. Ganter said no one at JRC will be laid off at this point in time, but positions may be cut through attrition.
Unrelated to the loss of Medicaid funds, JRC has opted to close its annex on Van Duzee Street, which has housed part of the agencys day habilitation program and meeting space for staff. Mr. Ganter said the agency didnt have the extra $3 million to fix it. The agency will only save about $11,000 per year by not having to pay utilities, and it will most likely be used for storage.
Clients who utilized the annex for day habilitation will either go to the agencys main day habilitation space on Gaffney Drive, or JRC will utilize space from other nonprofit agencies.
Ms. Mariani said the Oneida-Lewis ARC is not giving up just yet. The agency had gotten thousands of people to send letters in support of the ARC to elected officials, and groups have also traveled to Albany.
Its been all hands on deck (because) 4.5 percent is still huge, and extremely detrimental to those who have developmental disabilities. Theres no cure. Theres no stop.
United Helpers Executive Director Stephen E. Knight was unavailable for comment Wednesday, and a call seeking comment from the Cerebral Palsy Association of the North Country was not immediately returned Wednesday.
Mr. Ganter said he expects more information to be forthcoming within four or five months.

Better Health Chiropractic of Watertown, an independent practice started by Dr. Renee J. Petitto, will open in February next to the office of Maxon Chiropractic at 21101 Route 12F, Suite 5.
Mrs. Petitto, who earned a doctorate in chiropractic medicine in 2011 at New York Chiropractic College, Seneca Falls, completed on-site training with Dr. Tomm Maxon at Maxon Chiropractic as preparation for starting her own practice. She said her practice will provide thorough physical evaluations to develop independent treatment plans to help patients increase their joint mobility, focusing on the spine, ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, wrists and hands. She said she looks forward to working with military members stationed at Fort Drum.
These men are athletes who are running and jumping, said Mrs. Petitto, who served in the Marine Corps. As a former service member I know what goes on, and I dont think a lot of their musculoskeletal needs are being met. We can address the feet, knees, elbows and hands here with just some simple adjustments.
Treatment plans are developed for patients so they can conduct physical exercises on their own, she said, rather than making multiple office visits.
We want people to be independent and feeling well soon, making sure theyre pain-free, she said.
Mrs. Petitto earned her bachelor of science degree in biological studies in 2006 from SUNY Potsdam, graduating magna cum laude. Her husband, Carl A., is the manager of Gregs Restaurant, Gouverneur.
An open house introducing the new practice, which is now accepting patients, will be held from noon to 7 p.m. Feb. 4 and 5. Office tours, free food and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided.
Better Health Chiropractic will be open seven days a week. Call 782-0440 to make an appointment, or visit www.drtomm.com for more information.

Read the transcript of video: Converting a PDF using the OCR editor in EasyConverter version 5
Using the OCR editor
Welcome to the Dolphin EasyConverter video tutorials. In this tutorial I am going to be taking a PDF and converting it into a Daisy book. I am also going to be editing the document within the OCR editor and Microsoft Word. Firstly I am going to choose New Project. Here I can decide a name for my project. I am going to leave it as New Project 4. The path where the project will be saved to is shown here. If I want to change this I can select browse and choose a new location. I am going to save it to my desktop. Choose your input document. Here I can decide if I want to scan one or more papers or open a document that might already be on the PC. I am going to choose 'open document' and then 'browse' and find the document. I can now choose 'next' to move on to the next stage. Choose your PDF and image document settings. Firstly I need to choose the language that the document is in. If I want to change this I can do so from this list. Choose whether you would like to use the OCR editor to edit the document before converting. I would like to do this, so I am going to choose 'Yes'.
Document Settings. Choose if you want EasyConverter to automatically detect the headings in your document. This could be helpful if you have a Word document that already has heading styles in place. Mine doesn't so I'm going to select 'No'. Decide if you want to edit your document in Microsoft Word before converting. I do want to do this so I am going to select 'Yes'. Choose your alternative format. Here I can choose the format that I want to convert my PDF into. I can choose from text, Mp3, DTB or Daisy, large print and Braille. I'm going to select DTB. Here I have all the options relating to the format that I have chosen. I can choose the type of Daisy book I want and also whether I want a built in speech synthesiser. If I choose 'Yes', I can decide which voice I want to be used. I can also decide whether I want to use a lexicon. A lexicon can be used to alter the pronunciation of words. I don't have one, so I am going to use this as 'Do not use lexicon'. Choose your output name for DTB. My project is called 'New Project 4' but my actual output by default will be the same as the input document. I'm going to change this to 'PDF'. I can also choose to append some extra information to the Output name. I can choose DTB, the date I created it, the voice that is used and also the lexicon. I am going to choose the date it was created. If I do not want to use this information I can simply untick the checkbox.
Copy your alternative format. Here I can choose to save a copy of my alternative format to a folder or burn it straight to DVD or CD or put it straight on to a USB device. I do not want to do this so I am going to select 'no copy to'. Now I can select finish to start the conversion. The PDF has now been imported into the OCR editor. This is where I can make any changes that I want to the document. This is quite a complicated PDF. It has different sections of text as well as images. Using the 'select zone tool', I can hover my mouse cursor over sections of the PDF. Sections such as this are automatically recognised as text. I can then simply double click and the text has been selected. This section however is showing up as two separate boxes. What I can do is double click on this section and then simply extend the box to encapsulate all the text. This section is shown up as one single text box, so I can simply double click. Again this section is showing us two separate text boxes, but it also has an image in the middle that I want to get rid of. For this I can choose the 'Draw Text Zone' tool. I can then draw a text zone around this section and then another one around this section overlapping with the previous. I have now selected all the text that I want, but not include the image. Now I can select the 'Select Zone' tool again and move on. Again this section has not included all of the text so I so I can simply extend the box to include this. This image is showing up as a text box and an image. To combat this I can choose the 'draw graphic zone' tool and select it manually. I can now go back to the 'Select Zone' tool and select the second image. This area at the top is not being picked up by EasyConverter. I can see its text so I can once again select the 'draw text zone' tool and draw a text zone around it. Since there are so many aspects to this PDF I want to make sure that they are all ordered in the way I want them, so I can choose the 'Zone order' tool. As you can see, each of the zones has a number in the corner. This indicates the order in which they will appear in the document. I want to change this. I want this section to be first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and finally ninth. I can now choose 'Start OCR' to have EasyConverter recognise the PDF. Once the recognition has finished my document is opened in the 'preview OCR result' area. As we can see the images and texts have all been recognised. This section however appears to be blank. This is because the text in the PDF is white and so this has also come out white. If I want this to be visible I have to change the colour. I can't do this within the OCR editor, but I can do it within Microsoft word. Now I can choose 'Save and Return' to continue with the conversion. As specified the document has opened in Microsoft Word for a second round of editing. This is where I can change the colour of that problem text. I can also look over the document to make sure there is nothing else that I want to change. This word is slightly out of sync with the rest of the text, so I'm simply going to cut it, and paste it into an area that I want. I can now choose 'Save and Return' to continue with the conversion. When the status bar reaches 100% I can select 'Done'. My Daisy book is now shown here under 'Resulting alternative formats'. To view the book I simply select i and choose 'View output. MY Daisy Book is now opened within Dolphin EasyReader. You have now just seen how to create a Daisy book from a PDF using the OCR editor and Microsoft Word. Thankyou.

Have you ever known someone for a while, and later discovered one of their secret talents? Like, learning that a coworker sews amazing mens' suits at night, or finding out that your retired neighbor happens to be a pool shark and travels to Vegas to compete. I love when this kind of stuff unfolds.
Last week at the Sweets & Snacks EXPO in Chicago, I came across a "Candy Never Goes Out of Style" exhibit. It was a display of couture dresses, jewelry, high-heeled pumps, and a Louis XVI chair all made out of candy wrappers and individual pieces of candy.
Exhibit A:
Turns out the dresses and accessories were created by Terese McDonald, owner of Candyality candy shops in Chicago, along with several of her staff members, siblings, and sister-in-law. The Louis XVI "sweet seat" was made by Beth Kimmerle, candy historian and author. Both Terese and Beth are friends of Candy.com, and neither came clean with their hidden talents until last week.
Terese says the "Skittles Riddles" dress (above) took her employee, Ashley Reinsmith, about 15 hours to make. (Skittles Riddles got lots of buzz at the Sweets & Snacks EXPO, winning the NCA's Most Innovative New Product Award in the non-chocolate category.)
The matching Skittles Riddles high heels scream "Katy Perry!" …
Exhibit B:
According to Terese, the Jelly Belly Wedding Dress took the most amount of time to design and bring to life … about 50 hours. (That may have topped the time it took Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen to create Kate Middleton's wedding dress!) The bodice and boning accents were made with Vanilla Jelly Belly jelly beans.
Terese says two of her team members worked diligently on the Jelly Belly dress in the middle of her new Water Tower Chicago store location, while customers watched the progress.
Exhibit C:
The vibrant Wm. Wrigley Jr. 5 Gum Dress was made by Terese's sister-in-law. Terese comes from a family of seven children and says all of her siblings and her sister-in-law have creative and artistic backgrounds. The talent pool runs deep! Terese says she and two of her sisters caught the fashion design bug two years ago when they collaborated on their first candy wrapper dress.
"We constantly study all of the current fashion trends and fashionable people, and make an inspiration board to get us going. Each dress is different as it expresses the vision of the artist," says Terese.
Exhibit D:
Inspiration by J.Lo? This M&M's Dress features a boho chic hat and rows and rows of wrappers cut like petals.
Exhibit E:
The summery tangerine dress made with Goetze's Classic Vanilla Cow Tale wrappers took Terese and her crew about 36 hours to craft. The neckline features unwrapped Goetze's Caramel Creams. (Yum!)
When asked about what happens with all the candy that gets unwrapped, Terese says, "Most companies donate the wrappers for our dresses, but from time to time, we do end up with vats of unwrapped candy. We recycle that candy because we do so many art projects in our stores. We don't like to throw anything away."
Exhibit F:
Beth Kimmerle's antique Louis XVI chair was covered in retro candies like Tootsie Rolls, red licorice wheels, candy dots, Necco Wafers, and Pez. It was, by far, the sweetest seat in the house.
