LEWISTON, N.Y. - State Police confirm firefighters found a woman dead inside a home after a fire in Lewiston.
Fire crews received a 9-1-1 call of a structure fire on Saunders Settlement Rd, in the Town of Lewiston and that a woman may still be inside the home.
Troopers arrived first on the scene noticed smoke coming from an air conditioner on the second floor. Because of the heavy smoke, troopers were unable to get to the second floor.
Fire crews found Florance Placek's body in the doorway of the master bedroom on the second floor. Investigators believe the cause of the fire is electrical and that no foul play is suspected.

|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Friday, 08 June 2007 05:47
Governor Mike Easley announced yesterday 17 western counties, including Avery, still fall under mandatory water conservation directives.People across the state need to conserve water, he said, as the summer heat progresses. Even after recent rainfall, 57 counties in North Carolina are still experiencing drought. The number is down from 83 last week. Watauga and Ashe are listed as having moderate drought, but that could worsen with more dry weather and high temperatures.

Antiques Roadshow: $500K find
EUGENE, Ore. - They came with their "treasures." Old clocks, guns, chairs, family heirlooms.
"I brought my husband's junior high trombone that he got used and bought for $100," said Nancy from Ashland, Ore.
For the first time, the popular TV series "Antiques Roadshow" was in Eugene Saturday, taping three episodes from inside the Lane Events Center.
"We haven't screened any of the ticket holders' items," said event producer Amy Santamaria. "We don't know what's coming through the doors and it's really, every one has an equal opportunity to be on the show, have their items featured."
Throughout the day, thousands of people wound their way through the two room convention center, most of them knowing this was the chance of a lifetime.
"It's not something I expected to happen," said Greg from Portland. "We entered a lottery to get a ticket and we got lucky in the lottery."
He and 6,000 lucky fans, randomly selected from more than 24,000, got to meet with professional appraisers to find out the history behind their antiques and how much they may be worth.
"It's an old airplane landing gear, main gear off a bi-plane pre World War 1," said Doug, an antique collector from Cottage Grove. "If it was valuable, that would be great."
One treasure was particularly valuable: a 1919 Norman Rockwell painting valued at $500,000. The painting ties for the second-most-valuable item the show has seen in its history. In 2009, someone brought in a Clyfford Still oil painting for appraisal, also valued at $500,000.
"As we start our sixteenth season here in Eugene, we couldn't be more excited about such an extraordinary, rare treasure, and we look forward to sharing it with America," said Antiques Roadshow Executive Producer Marsha Bemko.
Some people drove from as far away as Wyoming to find out what their items are worth.
Nancy, from Ashland, said she brought her grandmother's Civil War quilt to be appraised.
"It was made in 1861 to 1865. He said it was in beautiful shape and the colors were amazing and it was probably worth about $1,000."
But not everyone got the news they were hoping for.
"We just found out today it was only worth about $50 so no great treasure here," said Angelo about his wine decanter.
Still, almost everyone said this was a unique experience they'll never forget.

The patient-centered medical home (PCMH) is a model of care that aims to transform the delivery of comprehensive primary care to children, adolescents, and adults.
Through the medical home model, practices seek to improve the quality, effectiveness, and efficiency of the care they deliver while responding to each patient's unique needs and preferences. No matter where you fall on the spectrum of PCMH transformation—healthy skepticism, just getting started, in the middle of practice redesign, or implementing advanced concepts—the adoption of PCMH concepts can benefit your practice, your patients, and your bottom line.
The 2007 Joint Principles of the Patient-Centered Medical Home(3 page PDF)—as developed by the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American College of Physicians, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Osteopathic Association—are as follows:
A number of nationwide PCMH recognition and accreditation programs exist. Although some practices are required to complete a recognition program (e.g., for participation in an accountable care organization or a PCMH incentive program), PCMH recognition for many practices is voluntary. You do not have to participate in a recognition program in order to begin or complete PCMH transformation.
Learn more about PCMH recognition programs.
We have redesigned the PCMH checklist to better match where you are in the spectrum of practice transformation.

Re: Fort Benning in May 2012?
Been there back in Feb. 2011 as 11B and went Airborne school, and let me give you advice. If you get assigned to 1-50th INF BN, be prepared to suffer extremely hard. Also bring $20, a $20 AT&T Prepaid card for the payphones, a cellphone or ipod, and DO NOT EAT THE JUNK FOOD AT 30TH AG RECEPTION.
Once you land at fort benning, you will go straight to 30th AG Reception, and you will be there for over 7 days. You will be bored out of your mind, and you will not have ANY SLEEP depending on capacity. When I was there I was awake for a total of 72+hrs with no sleep. So get as much sleep as you can. While at the DFAC at 30th AG please DO NOT GET THE JUNK FOOD, YOU WILL REGRET IT. The drill sgts at 30th AG are considered "NICE" compared to your real drill sgts.
Once you get to ship out to the real basic training, make sure you put all your heavy stuff in your ruck, and the light stuff in your laundry bag. You will go thru your shark attack, (Mine was run up sandhill to 1-50th barracks, and do sack benches). If you get 1-50th you will RUN up sandhill.
Once you get settled onto your platoons, and company, you will be doing paperwork for 3 days. You will get smoked, and you will be in pain. After 3 days you will start your Minimum PT assesment with a 1 mile run, situps, and pushups. By this time I bet some of your battlebuddies in your company will be wanting to quit.
I can go on, but once you get a hand of things it will feel second nature to you. If you want to go to Airborne school in the national guard you MUST score 300+ in the APFT. Drill sgts DO NOT LIKE NATIONAL GUARDSMEN. My drill sgts recommended me to Airborne school due to my PT scores, and I was the only national guardsmen to get that recommendation.
If you get your PT all set, you are pretty much okay for the rest of the weeks. You will spend hours and hours cleaning your barracks, weapons, and doing demeaning tasks. It is designed to lower your morale and increase stress to weed out the weak ones.
Get use to standing in the position of attention for hours and hours. You will get SMOKED especially if someone eats cake at the DFAC ESPECIALLY if you are in 1-50.
Infantry OSUT is different from POG BCT, so do not take it lightly if you are going to be a 11B. Anyone going to 1-50 WILL grow hair on the balls, I admire everyone that graduates 1-50. 1-50 also has the HIGHEST ELS rates (Quitters). I guarantee some people will go suicidal over the stress. Also a lot will just refuse to train because they missed 72hrs of training which they say is the maximum you can miss.
Biggest Advice:
If you do miss training DO NOT LOSE MORALE. I know if you go to Winders Clinic for Sick call you will end up losing morale and think about quitting. DO NOT DO IT. Your drill sgts will scare you by saying if you miss 72hrs of training you will be restarted to day 1. DO NOT LISTEN TO THAT BS. I've seen many people miss 2+ weeks and important training events and they still end up graduating, because they DID NOT QUIT. Mostly the ones that quit is if they go to sick call, and think they will be restarted because they missed 72+hrs of training.
Morale and PT will get your thru your training. 300+ or 300 average will get you into Airborne school. As for ranger school I doubt it unless its in your contract. RASP will ONLY take active duty, and your drill sgts will say the same thing regardless if you are good enough to be a Ranger. Only way to go to Ranger school would probably to enter WTC Pre-Ranger school when you go back home.

Re: Fort Benning in May 2012?
drink water. lots of water. Benning is going to kick your butt that time of year. You think you know warm up in Philly (Im from Wilmington), but words cannot describe the heat involved with Benning. so again, DRINK WATER!!! and dont quit haha
Re: Fort Benning in May 2012?
Good luck everyone! It's true what they say about southern heat. Be prepared to sweat! I'm not sure if you seen the packing list they have on here, but it's helpful in getting a general idea of what you need. Here's a direction link: http://www.nationalguard.com/guard-b...bring-to-basic.
Re: Fort Benning in May 2012?
If you aren't going to have the opportunity/time to attend any RSP sessions before you ship (like me), I've read that you should learn these on your own:
1) Soldier's Creed
2) General Orders
3) Army Values
4) Army Song
Just a heads up for anyone who's in the same boat as me.

Industrial societies turn their citizens into image-junkies; it is the most irresistible form of mental pollution. Poignant longings for beauty, for an end to probing below the surface, for a redemption and celebration of the body of the world. Ultimately, having an experience becomes identical with taking a photograph of it.Susan Sontag
The opera world was shocked! But the image is very classical. It's taken from Botticelli's portrait of Venus, who's standing in a seashell with her hair covering her body. It's very sensual. It represents the vulnerable side of me. Although I'm not wearing any clothes, it comes across very well.Sarah Brightman

Shake Hands With the Devil
In 1993, the United Nations dispatches Lieutenant-General Roméo Dallaire to far off Rwanda to oversee a fragile cease-fire. A brilliant, workaholic officer and charismatic commander, Dallaire encounters the shabby reality of a typical UN peacekeeping operation: under-funded, overbureaucratic, and cobbled together from military units from dozens of countries, each with a slightly different agenda. Meanwhile, the peace agreement between the rebels, led by the minority Tutsi ethnic group, and the French-supported government dominated by the Hutu majority group, turns out to rest on shaky ground. When an unknown group shoots down the Rwandan President's plane, the storm breaks and a secret but long-planned genocidal campaign against the Tutsi minority begins with a night of terror in Kigali. A reporter remains in-country and follows General Dellaire as he is forced to deal with far-away superiors and the studied indifference of the world's great powers while trying to take decisive action to stop the genocide of over 800,000 innocent civilians.

GLENFIELD Kyle T. Simpson, 18, of 6813 Pine Grove Road, was charged Wednesday by Lewis County sheriffs deputies with endangering the welfare of a child.
Deputies said they received a call from a passing motorist about 7:30 a.m. reporting that a young boy was found walking along Pine Grove Road in the town of Watson. The motorist stayed with the child until deputies arrived, but it is alleged that Mr. Simpson, who was in charge of the 3-year-old child, did not show up looking for the boy for about 40 minutes. Deputies said the child had left his familys residence undetected by Mr. Simpson.
Mr. Simpson was issued an appearance ticket for Watson Town Court. Lewis County Child Protective Services is assisting in the investigation.

Is PA Parenteau's Production a Result of John Tavares and Matt Moulson?
Yesterday, I talked about the importance of re-signing PA Parenteau. The conclusions I drew were mostly from Parenteau being a potential 70 point player who is actually, you know, playing on Long Island and how it's a lot easier to keep someone who is already here than convince someone who isn't. Let's take it one step further and do some analysis.
One of the potential knocks on Parenteau's improved numbers this year is the idea that they are thanks to not only an improved John Tavares but that Parenteau has spent much of the season on the first line with Moulson and JT91. This is certainly an important aspect of how PAP has developed here on Long Island and certainly factors into how badly the Islanders should want to retain his services.
Parenteau has emerged as a solid player; there's no debating that. But he's on pace for 70+ points at the moment and that would be around 20 points more than last year's total. That's a big difference for a UFA-to-be headed into contract negotiations this summer.
So, is he a product of playing on the first line for much of the season? Let's take a look. Looking at his corsi, it's 3.69 and that's tied for the best on the team with Tavares. So there's obviously going to be some of one player affecting the other here but that's certainly in Parenteau's favor. It's been gone over at great length in the past week that Tavares is singlehandedly driving the Islanders' possession, so to see Parenteau with a similar corsi is encouraging although not nearly definitive. Parenteau's other advanced metrics are pretty similar across the board including his quality of competition, points per 60 minutes and team goals for per 60. Since I can't break those figures out between the games he's been on the first line and the games where he hasn't, they should be somewhat similar to Tavares (note — I'm not the greatest with advanced stats, so that's my attempt. I encourage those of you who are accelerated students to chime in).
Let's take a look at some of the statistics that can be specifically broken out. Here is the breakdown of PAP's scoring as he has been moved through the lineup this season. I've broken out the points he has scored on the power play, since those don't factor into our logic here (and I don't have a log of the power play lines throughout the season. Also FYI — none of PAP's goals were empty net goals).
DEC 29 – JAN 23 (PAP second line – Okposo moved up)
TOT 3-11-14, +3, 25 SOG in 13 games (1.92 SH/G)
NOV 21 – DEC 28 (PAP first line)
TOT 3-11-14, -1, 40 SOG in 17 games (2.35 SH/G)
NOV 4 – NOV 20 (PAP second line – Grabner moved up)
TOT 2-4-6, -2, 16 SOG in 7 games (2.28 SH/G)
Opening Night – NOV 3 (PAP first line)
TOT 1-7-8, -3, 16 SOG in 10 games (1.6 SH/G)
And now to get to the gist of it, here are the totals off and on the first line during even strength…
EV first line production:
EV second line production:
So that's a rather simple measurement of his time with and without Moulson and Tavares, so I wouldn't want to draw any broad conclusions from it. The shot per game averages are almost identical so that's not telling much and those are only the shots that hit the net. But, kind of amazingly, Parenteau actually has a higher even strength points per game average while not on the first line. That's really surprising when you consider that time is spent with the defense-first Frans Nielsen and some of it has been spent with the .2 PPG Brian Rolston.
Here's one more stat to throw out here. The Islanders are 16-7-3 this season in games where Parenteau has at least one point. In fact, take a look at his game log. Most of the Islanders' win streaks this year have coincided with a Parenteau point-streak. Now it's kind of a chicken-or-egg question; is that record due to PAP stepping up and giving the Isles the secondary scoring they desperately need or is it because the players around PAP were playing better during the wins, helping him to accrue more points?

As I write this early on Wednesday morning, the prospects for snow from the coming storm look quite low. After a dry morning commute, we'll see a batch of rain and highs in the 40s for the afternoon. With "warm" surfaces, even if/when we do switch to some snow after dark, it will have a tough time sticking. Temperatures tonight will also be rather mild with lows only getting below freezing in a few spots north and west of DC late tonight.
As you can see from the model output from late last night, the snowfall output is piddly!
In the mountains, Winter Weather Advisories go into effect at Noon. 2"-4" is possible there with locally 5" at the higher elevations.
A Winter Weather Advisory is also in effect around Philadelphia and on Long Island for tonight as several inches of snow will be possible in those areas.
Once again for DC, the winter fails to deliver a meaningful, or even not so meaningful snow.

CANTON A Hermon man was arrested on rape charges Tuesday following investigation into a report that he had sex with a teenage girl in the town of DeKalb last summer, state police said.
Michael C. Besaw, 23, was charged with third-degree rape, in which the victim was less than 17 and the alleged perpetrator was older than 21, a felony, and acting in a manner injurious to a child under 17, a misdemeanor. He was arrested at 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday, troopers said.
The victims age was not immediately available, but troopers said the nature of the charges indicated she was 15 or 16, as a younger age would have resulted in a different charge.
The alleged incident was reported to police Jan. 29.
Besaw was committed to the St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, in lieu of $5,000 bail.
In 2007, he was arrested in connection with a burglary at a home on Old Northerner Road in DeKalb Junction. More than $250 in damage was done in the break-in, in which a digital camera, a safe and an unspecified amount of cash were taken.
He pleaded guilty in July 2007 to third-degree burglary in connection with the burglary and was sentenced to probation, while he and another suspect were ordered to pay a total of $7,009.18 restitution.
Information on the terms of his probation sentence was not immediately available Wednesday.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We bought these to compliment the Dappled Glade Signature Wedding Invitations, and they performed perfectly! We used the card to send out information about RSVPing, the reception site, and a note to see our wedding website. We ended up changing the Header font to match that used in the text body, and centered all of our text. I would highly recommend ordering the 8 free sample invites from WPD - it comes with a paper texture information booklet that is extremely helpful!"
"Although this set does not have a reception card, which is strange cause everyone gets a reception card most likely, BUT the great part about this you are able to customize it and I customized it to a reception card and even went back and forth with them to help me choose the best wording/option. I love it!"
"We used the Directions card for special requests from the Bride and Groom. We wanted to use a different font from the invitation and that was no problem. WPD designers are very accommodating and quick to respond. The enclosure card turned out great!"
"The quality is wonderful and there was plenty of space to include a lot of information. We wished to save funds by including hotel and wedding website information on the front and directions on the back. It was just what we hoped it would be! Very classy...or should I say, very vintage!"
"I need some major editing for this card. I used it for hotel accommodations. The designer made everything look perfect. Using the designer notes was hassle free. Loved all my matching products."

(119/PP/ENT/CIP/11/B/N02S009) European Tourism Communication and Promotion Campaign Publicado el: 02/09/2011, Última actualización: 01/09/2011
- Fecha límite:
- 14/10/2011.
- Número::
The main objective of this call for tenders is to develop and implement a communications strategy to raise the profile of Europe as a world tourist destination.
It will promote the image of Europe as a collection of diverse, sustainable and high quality tourist destinations in those countries whose expanding middle classes are a new potential source market for European destinations, namely the BRIC countries, Brazil, Russia, India, and China, as well as Argentina, and Chile.
DG Enterprise and Industry has been selected as pilot DG for the implementation of an e-tendering platform to manage call for tenders.
This platform has a direct link to TED.
The first phase of the pilot project is now « online » and consists of the publication of call documents and the management of questions and answers on the specifications.
Some of our calls will be launched only via this new platform.
This is one of them.
As soon as the contract notice about this call is published on TED, which is expected in the next few days, please use the link below, which you can also retrieve from the contract notice, annex A.II, to get access to all tender documents.
The documents will always be visible and downloadable but if you 'register' to the call by simply adding your e-mail address and a password, you will be able to ask questions and you will be informed automatically on all changes that may be published (additional documents, answers to questions, ..).
Thank you for joining us in this pilot project.

There's nothing like race day! Drivers, teams, and sponsors jockey for position against some of the stiffest competition the world has to offer each and every day of a major (or a minor) race, sometimes spending hundreds of thousands – if not millions – of dollars in the process looking for every edge and advantage.
Pick Your Poison
Professional racing today attracts the most talented drivers and athletes the sport has ever seen, but on top of that crews are absolutely overloaded with some of the most intelligent and skilled people ever seen on a support team before.
This means that every single race of their own cross all of the different circuits – including drifting, Formula One, rally car races, NASCAR, all the way down to a local drag race and the "peewee circuit" – is being competed for at the highest possible level, and if you love racing (or Motorsports in general) you don't want to miss any of the action!
That's why we have created the Motor Sport Circuit Guide.
The ultimate one-stop shop resource for everyone looking to learn about major (and minor) races held all over the world, this is your community source that you've been searching for!
Not only are you going to find schedules of all of the major and most of the minor races held around the world, but you'll also hear driver interviews, insider information from pit road, and all kinds of other bits and pieces of racing and motorsport information that you never would have had access to before.
On top of that, you'll become a member of the Motor Sport Circuit Guide team and community. This is an amazing online platform for people from all over the world to talk about motorsports and other racing related activities, and something that you just don't want to miss out on!
Start browsing through the 2015 calendars now.

I think that we should honor those who are from Carbon County and have gone on to do great things athletically.
One good example is Jan Jorgensen. He is the second son of Jeff and Julie Jorgensen of Helper. While attending Carbon High he was a state champion wrestler and an outstanding football player. This didn't happen by chance. Jan came by his athletic ability because his father was a Utah State football player and after coming to Carbon County was the football coach at Helper Junior High and then the high school.
Jan's older brother, J.D., was also an outstanding football player and played for the University of Utah.
Jan had decided after he left high school to play football for the University of Kentucky, but while on a mission for his church he was contacted by BYU and decided to change his destination.
As a freshman he became a defensive lineman starting for BYU and was named to the Freshman All-American Team by the Sporting News.
Now that BYU has won the Mountain West Conference crown the team will play in the Las Vegas Bowl on Dec. 21.
This is a great honor for Carbon County people. Others are also honoring us.
Some of those include Brady Martinez, who was a great pitcher at Carbon High, who has now signed a contract with the New York Yankees.
And what about Monica Shorts who is having an outstanding college career playing volleyball at Westminster College.
And of course we can't forget the Warburton girls who have played or are playing at four different colleges in the state and have done an outstanding job at those schools.
We need to appreciate these and the other outstanding young people of Carbon County.

- How to Read a Study Record
The primary purpose of this study is to measure the association between baseline expression of the senescence effector protein p16INK4a and myelosuppression due to chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer. Patients with Stage I-IV breast cancer will be included and myelosuppression will be assessed after the first cycle of chemotherapy via measurement of an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) measured one time between days 7-11 post cycle one. Study subjects will also be asked to complete a brief health behaviors questionnaire to gather information on other relevant variables.

Las Vegas hotels
What travelers to Las Vegas are saying
Find Great Hotel Deals in Las Vegas with HotelClub.com!
Whether you fly in or drive up, as soon as you see Sin City, you just know you're in for a good time. A banner at the airport invites you to 'Eat, Drink and Be Rowdy', and the only people you see are either just arriving, bright-eyed and fidgety with excitement, or just leaving, ragged and hungover, with the hollow-eyed look of folks who can't quite figure out how they spent the last few days.
Las Vegas is a smorgasbord of shows, super-clubs, great restaurants, booze and mind-boggling hotel-casinos. It is the ultimate city of excess, from the live lions that roam an exhibit inside the MGM Grand to the star-spangled ceiling of the Venetian.
The Paris Las Vegas is one of the most recognisable structures on The Strip – just look for the faux Eiffel Tower glistening amid the neon wonderland. Not content with making French visitors cringe, Las Vegas ruffles Egyptian feathers as well. The Luxor Casino is modelled on the Egyptian sphinx and pyramids.
Everything in Las Vegas is customised to help you make rash decisions, from slot machines that take $100 bills to quickie wedding chapels like the Little Chapel of the Flowers.
Las Vegas is the adult equivalent of Disneyland. It is unashamedly tacky, mind-bendingly extravagant and unstoppably brutal on the liver. When you arrive you'll think you need to stay longer to see everything, but after a few days you'll be clinging to sanity by your fingernails. Las Vegas chews you up and spits you out in a fog of smoke and booze – and while you're sure to have a good time, just remember: The house always wins.
Las Vegas' Top 10
10. Magic and Movie Hall of Fame Be awed and entertained by a huge array of magic and movie memorabilia.
5. Gallery of Fine Art Isn't it nice of the Bellagio to accommodate those who like their fine art?
9. Adventure Dome Rides, 4D experiences and stacks of fun.
4. Vegas Zoo A great place for the whole family (a rarity in this town). The chimps are hilarious and adorable.
8. Hoover Dam This mammoth, man-made dam is awe-inspiringly big – and the reason Vegas is able to exist in the desert.
3. Gondola Ride Who cares about going to Italy when you can take a romantic gondola ride at the Venetian.
7. Neon Museum An awesome collection of old school neon lights from times gone by.
2. Bellagio Fountains Watch the water dance to music and lights. It's truly spectacular and makes for great photos.
6. Fremont Street Experience You can't miss out on this canopy of lights and lasers.

Las Vegas LocalThe Strip
This is what you see in the movies and probably the first thing that comes to mind when you think about Vegas. The Strip is pretty much casino-heaven, so grab those chips and try your luck at places like the Luxor, MGM Grand and Treasure Island. If your gambling is getting a little out of control, take a break and head to the Guinness World Records Museum or hit up Madame Tussauds for some less odds-focused entertainment. Be warned though, even the airport has slot machines, so don't expect to be able to hide from it anywhere in this city.
If you feel like getting more value out of your holiday romance, don't forget to head to the famous Little White Chapel (where crazies like Britney and Sinatra got hitched). Even if you don't decide to tie the knot yourself, it's a guaranteed good time to watch semi-coherent revellers promise eternity to one another.
This area is away from the buzz of The Strip, but just as enjoyable. Get over to Ethel's Chocolates, take the factory tour and then buy in bulk. This chocolate is truly worth the calories, so indulge. The plant is also home to the Ethel M Botanical Cactus Gardens and an M&M's World (don't forget to buy stacks of cocoa-pleasures there, too).
Once you're done scoffing choccies, head to the Galleria on Sunset, one of Nevada's biggest and most attractive malls (it's got fountains and other pretty things). You're sure to spend quite some time in here so make sure you take a break, have a bite to eat at one of the restaurants and remember to wear sensible shoes.
This was the place to gamble before The Strip came along. Here you'll find Fremont Street (the second most important street in the city), more bright casinos and the renowned Fremont Street Experience, a massive array of entertainment that draws in thousands.
If you've had your fill of bright lights, head on over to the Arts District, where you'll find unique stores, galleries and quirky eateries. This district is home to the Arts Factory, Trifecta Gallery and the Brett Wesley Art Gallery, all of which house incredible exhibits. Plus, if you're a bit of a vintage queen (or king), make sure you check out the biggest vintage clothing store in the world, The Attic, and the Red Rooster Antique Mall.
Las Vegas Eat & Drink
Pasta Pirate This kookily named eatery looks kinda lame and tacky but the food is pretty damn spectacular.
Diablo's Cantina Diablo's is part Mexican eatery and part nightclub. Grab a Baja sandwich and a frozen margarita. Yum!
Mr Lucky's 24-7 This place ain't fancy but hey, it's open 24 hours. If you're craving a big, juicy burger at 4am, you know where to come. Eastside
Olives This elegant venue is a stark contrast to the trashiness outside. Pair one of their famous brick oven pizzas with a nice, rich red.
XS A huge amount of thought and effort has gone into this spectacular-looking club, so try not to be sick anywhere.
Craftsteak This steakhouse is one of the most famous in the country and with good reason. FYI: the Wagyu beef course is to die for.
DJT Trust Mr Trump to come up with gold dishes, velvet walls and marble arches. Enjoy fine American cuisine with a top glass of wine.
PURE Everything is doused in pearlescent white and looks just plain cool. Young Hollywood loves to get their drink on here.
TAO This luxe oasis of a club doesn't even look like it belongs in the city. Enjoy an expensive cocktail while you scope the talent.
LAX Big celebs and big DJs come here to party till dawn. Make sure you dress well or you'll be denied in a heartbeat.
Las Vegas Events
Want to see some (faux) celebs? Catch the Reel Awards and the Celebrities Impersonators Convention in late February. Rub shoulders with 'greats' like Dave Letterman, Arnie Schwarzenegger and Marilyn Monroe. It's odd but cool. (And if you can't make Vegas in Feb, come at any time of year and head to the Elvis Chapel where jumpsuit-wearing celebrants are getter tender-loving couples to say 'I do'.)
The beginning of May welcomes The Mini Moto SX, the biggest mini-bike race in the world. The race itself always manages to attract big crowds, as do the other sideshows and cool stunts.
June brings one of the creepiest conventions known to man: the Vegas Ventriloquist Convention. You'll be treated to workshops, discussions and shows on ventriloquism.
Trekkies, unite! One of the world's most famous and biggest conventions, the Star Trek Convention, takes over Vegas in early to mid-August. If you're a fan, you'll be in heaven and if you're not, loiter around The Rio Suites Hotel for some comedy gold.
NYE in Vegas is legendary. Tonnes of celebs pile into the city every single year to host some of the most epic parties at various casinos and clubs. You need to check info closer to the dates to see who'll be where, but rest assured, there will be a party hosted by someone you will wanna party with. If clubs aren't your thing, the streets go just as crazy and the fireworks and buzz will keep you just as happy.
P.S. Don't forget the plethora of shows, concerts and musicals that are on every single night at various casinos, hotels and venues across Vegas. Cirque du Soleil is the hottest ticket in town –a suitably surreal show to complement a surreal holiday!
When To Go
The heat is intense during June to September and can exceed 40°C (104°F), so if you're not a fan of the heat you might like to skip summer in Las Vegas. Having said that, almost every hotel has a lavish pool (not to mention superb air-con), so why not just embrace it and make it a pool party?
Spring and autumn are still sunny but with much more comfortable temperatures of around 22-29°C (72-84°F), so head over anytime during these months.
Winter is very mild in Vegas and the crowds dissipate a little, which means you can grab some excellent package deals around this time. The only downfall is that all the great pool parties such as Rehab in The Hard Rock Café are closed.
What To Miss
It's all fun and games, but there's nothing light-hearted about how seriously the games dealers and security take their jobs. Don't joke about cheating, keep your hands off the table and don't try and take any photos while the game's in progress. Hotel and casino security is tight and you'll be thrown off a table faster than you can say 'blackjack' if you step out of line.
Keep an eye on how much you're drinking and spending. The casinos are not only windowless, but have oxygen pumped in to keep people alert, awake and spending for longer. Add to this the fact that if you're at a cards table or slot machine you'll be delivered an endless supply of free drinks, and you can easily find yourself penniless and trashed at 5am when you'd only intended to step out for a quick game of craps at 7pm. Two days earlier.
Las Vegas has a zero-tolerance policy on drugs, so hold off on committing that particular sin in this city of sin.
Getting Around
The CAT buses are not only cheap as chips, but most of them also run 24 hours a day, so they're your best bet for getting around.
If you want something fun, there are plenty of scooter rental places scattered around, but remember that drunk-driving laws apply to you, too.
Walking the strip is a must to properly take in all there is to see. You'll get a better idea of the vastness of this city when you're on foot, dwarfed by glittering buildings.a
Las Vegas Information
The shiny desert oasis we know today as Sin City and the Entertainment Capital of the World has modest roots. As a new railroad town in 1905, Las Vegas was for decades just a rest stop for military convoys and migrant workers on the way to California. The tide began to shift however, with the dedication of the Hoover Dam in 1936. Tourists began to visit the area for the first time. The subsequent decision to legalize gambling in the state of Nevada altered the fortunes of Las Vegas forever.
From the moment Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel's Flamingo Hotel inaugurated the now-iconic Las Vegas Strip on December 26, 1946, the former desert stopover has become the fastest-growing city in America. Now at 1.8 million people strong, the bright lights of Las Vegas, visible from space, serve as a beacon to tourists from all over the world.
The Sin City reputation Las Vegas has today is little more than a nostalgic nod to a seedy era when brothels, bars and rough and tumble casinos were the only game in town. Thanks to a miraculous transformation that took Herculean efforts to complete, today Las Vegas is synonymous with mainstream family appeal. While the city offers all the nefarious pleasures of yore, a once seamy veneer has been scoured into an antiseptic, squeaky-clean, Disneyland gloss.
The action takes place on the Las Vegas Strip of course, where behemoth amusement park casinos jostle for space. No longer sole purveyors of slot machines, blackjack and baccarat, these veritable super-resorts now offer the very best in entertainment, leisure and cuisine.
Hotel casinos like the Wynn, The Venetian, Bellagio, MGM Grand and Luxor comprise the main attractions in town. The resorts offer requisite casino games of course but over time, the ante in Vegas has gone up considerably. In order to pass muster as family destinations, additional features such as rides, fountain and light shows, fireworks displays and even exotic animal exhibits have now become paradigm.
For world class entertainment and restaurants, Las Vegas is impossible to beat. Cirque de Soleil has no less than five permanent shows on the Strip. From O and Zumanity, to Love, a creative tribute to The Beatles, the circus with a twist is the most popular ticket in town. Other top draws in Vegas include Blue Man Group, Broadway shows The Phantom of the Opera and Mamma Mia! and believe it or not, Guggenheim Museum.
The bedrock association Las Vegas once had with "early bird" buffet dinner specials is gone. The allure of resort and casino sweetheart deals has been impossible for celebrity chefs to ignore. No culinary empire today is complete without a haunt in Las Vegas and as a result, Alain Ducasse, Joël Robuchon, Mario Batali and Thomas Keller all have restaurants in Sin City.
More Info On Events
Las Vegas is so rife with choice that mere contemplation on how to spend a day can propel you into a catatonic state. The 4 mile Strip alone is dense with casinos, concert halls, nightclubs and resorts that solicit your attention.
There is however, life outside the Strip. You can tee it up at a championship golf course for one. Las Vegas is a major golf destination, with myriad clubs and resorts and a PGA tournament every Fall.
The home of tennis legend Andre Agassi, the city also hosts the Tennis Channel Open every February.
NASCAR comes to town every March with one of the most popular races on the annual calendar at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
The Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is only 15 miles west of the city but feels a world away from the neon glare of the Strip. With a flood of recreational options on hand, superb vistas of Nevada landscape and caves with Native petroglyphs, the park is a wonderful escape from the casinos.
Within the Mojave Desert, the general climate in Las Vegas is dry and hot. Winters are mild and see the majority of rainfall, from January and March.
- Winter (November to February) 2.5-19°C
- Spring (March to May) 8-31°C
- Summer (June to August) 22-39°C
- Fall (September to October) 13.5-34°C

NORWOOD Taxes took center stage at a public meeting held Tuesday night to discuss the future of the village, as residents debated whether Norwood should dissolve, create its own town or simply maintain the status quo.
The Center for Governmental Research, Rochester, presented the findings of a report that has taken months to complete, detailing Norwoods options.
Dissolution would require the approval of a majority of Norwoods registered voters, at which point the village would cease to exist and residents would be under the jurisdiction of the town they live in. Most of Norwood is within the town of Potsdam, with about 80 residents living in Norfolk.
Norwood provides water and sewer services to its residents, along with a fire department and a police department. The town of Potsdam does not provide any of these services, although it contracts with local fire departments to provide protection.
If the village dissolves, special service districts could be created that would allow Norwood residents to keep these services by paying for them.
Assuming service levels remain the same, Norwood residents will see their taxes drop sharply if the village dissolves, from $16.70 per $1,000 of assessed property value to $8.50. Potsdam residents outside the village will have a slight tax hike, from $3.20 per $1,000 to $4
These figures assume the town of Potsdam will have to hire more employees to provide road maintenance and other services now handled by Norwood.
The study also looked at what it would take for Norwood become its own town, separating from Potsdam and Norfolk. This route is much more complicated. Only five other villages in the state have ever created a new town, and there is no set protocol for how to do so.
Its really breaking new ground, this proposal, CGR representative R. Jill Symonds said.
There are two plans for the creation of a new town. In one, the entire 13668 ZIP code would become the town of Norwood, greatly extending the villages borders.
The other plan is more modest, extending the reach of the village only by a few streets.
Both plans would result in a tax cut for Norwood residents. The creation of a large town would drop rates from $16.70 per $1,000 to $14.30, while the small town would cut them to $11.
However, neither plan will pass without serious alterations, Mayor James H. McFaddin said. Although the laws are unclear, Norwood likely would have to hold several referendums in order to create its own town, gaining the approval of residents of Norfolk, Potsdam and the village itself.
Norwood resident Tracey H. Sloan said the protocol needs to be clearly defined before the village attempts to make this plan a reality.
We could just be winding ourselves up like a top and sitting here and spinning, she said.
Potsdam will not give up Norwood without a political battle. The village is worth nearly $40 million in taxable assessed value. Potsdam residents who live within the boundaries of the new town would see their taxes jump from $3.20 per $1,000 to $11.20 under the large-boundary plan, or $9.10 in the small-boundary plan.
Despite the challenges, Mr. McFaddin said, he is still eager to see Norwood attempt to create its own town. He said there are several options the village could take to make the plan more palatable to Potsdam residents, although more study is needed to figure out what these are.
There are answers out there, but they are unknown right now, I can tell you that tonight, he said.
Residents reactions were mixed during Tuesdays meeting. Several village residents favored the creation of a new town, although they doubted it would be possible. They complained that Potsdam unfairly raised their assessments.
Others, like James A. Tyler, favored dissolution.
Weve got to get rid of some layers of government somehow, he said.

Ideal wireless system for presenters of any kind.
The applications for this system are as vast as the field of communications. Here's a partial list: business presenters, auctioneers, comedians, bingo callers, dance instructors, ministers, square dance callers, tour bus narrators, lecturers, hog-callers and so on. The Nady DKW-8U system provides superb value in wireless vocal amplification for speech. This package contains Nady's unidirectional microphone, which means it has a focused pickup pattern. In louder environments, this is probably the one to select, as it does a better job of rejecting feedback than an omnidirectional microphone.
This system consists of a lavalier microphone that attaches to a tie, lapel or the speaker's button front, which then attaches to a belt-pack transmitter, and a receiver that typically resides near the input of whatever amplification system is being used. From the speaker's mouth to the input jack of the amplification device, the DKW-8U provides a clear, robust wireless audio signal that is appropriate to professional applications.
Even with obstacles such as walls, displays and crowds, response is reliable to 150 feet.
Order today and experience the freedom and expressiveness that comes with good-sounding, reliable, hands-free wireless presentation.

You could call UWM's Chris Cornelius an architect, but first and foremost he considers himself a storyteller. A member of Wisconsin's Oneida nation, Cornelius's building designs embody the values and stories of Native American cultures.
Take the example of Milwaukee's Indian Community School. As a member of the design team, Cornelius played a key role in ensuring that architect Antoine Predock's award-winning school design accurately translated Wisconsin's woodland Native culture.
Towering tree trunks serve as dramatic support pillars throughout the school's open space, which is appropriate given the important symbolic role of trees in Native culture, Cornelius says. For example, among the Oneida, the white pine represents Mother Earth.
"These trees gave themselves to the school," he says. "They are our great-grandparents and they reinforce the priorities of the school – respect and responsibility."
"Many of these kids come from the city and don't have a connection to the landscape of their cultural home," he says. "We were looking for visual links so that the inside and outside boundaries were blurred."
Cornelius, one of only a few Native architect-academics in the U.S., grew up on a Green Bay reservation and completed his undergraduate architecture degree at UWM and his master's degree at the University of Virginia. Before accepting his current position as UWM associate professor, Cornelius worked with sustainable-design guru William McDonough and served as an artist-in-residence at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian.
"The work coming out of his studios at UWM is like nothing I've seen before," says Robert Greenstreet, dean of the School of Architecture & Urban Planning. "It's much more spirit-inspired, with interesting applied forms and a completely different aesthetic."

At Who What Wear headquarters, one of our top priorities is to give you, dear readers, all of the fashion facts about the latest looks and must-have pieces. (The second priority on our list--getting our hands on a pair of Celine sunglasses--is not nearly so noble.) The reason we care about this info is simple: we want to ensure that when you're creating and experimenting with outfits at home, the results are always excellent. And while we tend to focus our coverage on how to translate runway trends and stylish-celeb ensembles for your everyday wardrobe, sometimes it's just as important and helpful to concentrate on a single essential. Bearing this in mind, today we're very pleased to introduce our newest story--How To Wear--which will address one key piece and showcase different ways to wear it. Whether it's a hard-working staple or an of-the-moment trend, we'll demonstrate its versatility and give you tips on how to make it work for your personal style--always a good thing in our book!
For our very first installment of How to Wear, we selected something that should be on everyone's must-have list: black denim! These all-purpose jeans are everything you want in an article of clothing: flattering, forever fashionable, and they can go from casual to chic in seconds. Dressier than basic blue, more timeless than gray, and less trendy than colorful iterations, black denim is adaptable to just about anything, which is why you always need fresh ideas about how to wear it. While these jeans come in lots of different styles, we decided to spotlight one of our favorite versions for this story: Gap's Legging Jeans ($70) in True Black. These slim, cropped pants are perfect for any occasion and can go from office-appropriate to weekend casual to night-out fare without skipping a beat!
On The Job
While most jeans are considered too casual for the office, black denim is definitely a dressier option and therefore a practical alternative to traditional slacks. The key to making these jeans acceptable workwear is to elevate them with dressier fabrics and tailored pieces. With this idea in mind, we took inspiration from the runways--specifically the recent trend of monochromatic, minimalist ensembles--and paired these slim jeans with similarly sleek pieces in an all-black palette. When worn in combination with Equipment's Signature Blouse ($178), a crisp blazer from Burberry Prorsum's Resort 11 collection, and Yves Saint Laurent Palais Pumps ($720), skinny jeans look sophisticated and professional, which is just what you want for work!
On The Weekend
As we mentioned earlier, black denim can be styled to fit a variety of occasions, and that includes casual weekend outings. Whether you're running errands or enjoying an afternoon lunch with friends, it's important to be both comfortable and stylish. To achieve this look, go for a few lightweight layers, like Sparkle & Fade's Knit Top ($39, 800.282.2200) and Club Monaco's Max Cotton Flannel ($79,310.657.1818) and Heath Cardigan ($179, 310.657.1818) to be exact. The key is to pick a combination of textures (a thin t-shirt, a heavier cotton button-up, and a chunky-knit cardi) so that your outfit looks interesting. As for footwear, this is the perfect time to pull on a pair of lace-up booties; go for a hiking-style ankle boot or a more polished wedge oxford, like Steve Madden's Marriano Boots ($170) in Grey Nu. The juxtaposition of the slim jeans and the relaxed layers is effortlessly neat and ideal for your off-duty hours!
On The Town
Sultry dresses are an obvious choice for an evening out, but why not create an even cooler after-hours look with a pair of black jeans and a couple of black leather accents? It's a smart dressing idea for anyone who likes to mix a little rebellious attitude into their ensembles or show off their favorite statement shoes (or both!). Simplicity is always chic, so a basic top like L'Agence's Dolmain T-Shirt ($140, 866. 654.4577) is always a welcome base for this type of outfit. Then all you need to do is add a little toughness via your favorite little leather jacket and a great pair of shoes; try Twenty8Twelve's Beronia Leather Jacket ($670) and Steve Madden's Fortres Wedges ($90) to achieve this exact look. Just show a little restraint--you're not going to a Hells Angels bar, after all--and skip the heavy chains, studded accessories, and other biker accoutrements. The idea is to have a hint of edge in your outfit, not to look antagonistic!--Jessica Baker

TOWN OF TONAWANDA, NEW YORK - These days the crematory at the Amigone Funeral Home in the Town of Tonawanda sits quiet, and shutdown due to complaints from nearby neighbors about the smell there.
Thursday, the business announced plans to relocate and re-open its crematory near another residential area, have been taken off the table.
The Amigone Funeral Home remains a sensitive topic, for folks in the Town of Tonawanda even with it's cremating operation are shutdown. New debate arose when it was learned Amigone was considering moving its crematory off its current location, roughly 10 minutes west to Cooper Avenue, right by where the 190 and the 290 meet. A public hearing on the proposal, set for November 7th, has been cancelled as a result.
CEO Vincent Amigone released the following statement:
"We have arranged for this crematory in order to assure the families we serve that their loved ones are
afforded the dignity and respect that they deserve. These families trust us at their most vulnerable time.
We take that obligation very seriously."
"We have also tried to respond to community concerns expressed about the operation. Although no
scientific evidence connected the crematory operation to ongoing air issues we agreed to consider an
alternative location. We investigated and found a suitable location on Cooper Avenue in a facility zoned
for light manufacturing operations. This proposed move was described as a "win-win" by local officials;
keeping the operation in town for the families we serve while addressing the concerns expressed by our
neighbors. Unfortunately, the neighbors in the new proposed location have expressed opposition to our
operations and the New York State Cemetery Board has expressed opposition to our moving the
"Amigone is a family business. Sheridan Park has operated the crematory at this location for over 20
years. My family and I have personally been exposed to the crematory operations on a constant basis.
We have every belief that the operations are safe and do not cause any health impacts. We have taken
steps to insure that the facility is equipped with the best available technology to provide all appropriate
protections to the public. We have even made modifications over the years at the request of our
neighbors and regulatory agencies. We believe that the concerns expressed are unfounded."
For about 20 years, the funeral home burned bodies, until this past July when the facility shutdown operations. In recent years, residents that border the funeral home have complained about loud noises from the facility and a terrible odor that spreads throughout the neighborhood.
