A recent development in the class action lawsuit, Sabo v. United States, will likely result in the payment of millions of dollars in financial benefits and improved healthcare for thousands of Iraq & Afghanistan veterans diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and their families. Sabo v. United States was filed in December 2008 on behalf of seven veterans by the non-profit NVLSP under the Lawyers Serving Warriors program, and pro bono counsel Morgan Lewis & Bockius LLP.
The lawsuit alleges that between December 17, 2002 and October 14, 2008, the military illegally denied benefits to an entire class of service members who returned from Iraq and Afghanistan with PTSD and were discharged from service due to the PTSD. The disability ratings which are the subject of the lawsuit are critically important to veterans with PTSD. A permanent disability rating of 30% or more by the military constitutes medical retirement and entitles a veteran to monthly disability benefits for the rest of the veteran's life, to free health care for the veteran and his or her spouse for life, and to free health care for their minor children.
For years, the law has required the military to assign a disability rating of at least 50% to all veterans medically discharged for PTSD. In October 2008, the Department of Defense (DoD) ordered the military to assign a 50% rating for PTSD going forward. However, the plaintiffs in the Sabo v. United States lawsuit received a rating of 10% or less prior to the October 2008 DoD mandate.
Veterans must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for this class action settlement:
All individuals who:
served on active duty in the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, or Air Force,
were found by a Physical Evaluation Board to be unfit for continued service due, at least in part, to the individual's PTSD
were assigned a disability rating for PTSD of less than 50%, and, as a result, were released, separated, retired, or discharged from active duty after December 17, 2002, and prior to October 14, 2008 (regardless whether such release, separation, retirement, or discharge resulted in the individual's placement on the Temporary Disability Retirement List).
Veterans who suffer from PTSD from any in-service trauma which resulted in their medical separation during the affected period are eligible. For example, those veterans who suffer from PTSD as a result of a sexual assault, a car accident, witnessing a fatality, fire or other traumatic event may be eligible, and may not be aware as it falls outside of the more visible subgroup of combat participants who are suffering from PTSD. Veterans who believe they meet these criteria should contact the Lawyers Serving Warriors project through the website: www.ptsdlawsuit.com. Veterans must contact the project no later than July 24, 2010 to be eligible. It is estimated that over 4,300 veterans may qualify under this class action.
While this lawsuit is solely for veterans suffering from PTSD as a result of a traumatic event in service, a larger group of veterans may need to check their ratings to ascertain that they were properly awarded benefits. The pertinent portion of the Code of Federal Regulations (38 CFR § 4.129) states that:
"When a mental disorder that develops in service as the result of a stressful event is severe enough to bring about the veteran's release from active military service, the rating agency shall assign an evaluation of not less than 50% and schedule an examination within a six month period following the veteran's discharge to determine whether a change in evaluation is warranted".
Thus mental conditions other than PTSD, such as an adjustment disorder or depression, could be considered under this regulation. While such veterans would not qualify under this specific lawsuit, if this regulation was improperly applied, they should contact a Department Service Officer to determine the best course of action in rectifying the situation.
I opted in and got 50% TDRL from discarge date to six months after discharge and then was re-evaluated based on no evidence or medical records or me even being present or even notified of such a eval. IT NEVER HAPPEND!!! They made the revaluation up out of thin air and some how denied me a formal re-evaluation. I have been stuggling to servive with a family of 5 and cant aford help. My disability is to low with the VA for them to help and they are not helping me get evaluated thru them. The VA says to submit a claim, But with no counseling due to only 10% = no records. this is what the law suit was about and im back to square one and will some how have to pay back another severence that will leave me worse off then before! I need to be on TDRL to help get the counseling I need and medical records need to be keept for use in a re-evaluation in six months. That is TDRL, To help a soldier recover or retire, I havnt had a legal oppertunity of either. Please help and get the truth out there
They did this to all of us not just a few. Myself included, do you wonder how Nancy Polosi can spend 250k$ on caviar for her air plane rides on Air Force one, but we can't even get compensated for being shot at, blown up, watch our friends die, and be robbed of our emotions? Then to be told that your life is not worth the same value as an ungreatful electoral college members caviar bill? Thanks for letting the defenders of the constitution know that our lives aren't worth the same as the yellow cowards. How about our families that suffer? Instead of saying thank you why don't you just spit on us like they did the Vietnam veterans? At least then they would be honest for a change.
That political rant is no benefit to this forum at all.
This article is very misleading. Those who get 30% or more do not get all those benefits,("...by the military constitutes medical retirement and entitles a veteran to monthly disability benefits for the rest of the veteran's life, to free health care for the veteran and his or her spouse for life, and to free health care for their minor children)." I am 60% disabled and my husband is 70% disabled and he or I cannot go into the VA Medical Center and get a simple dental check up. Our children do not get any benefits at all either. If we had 100% service-connected disability rating, then we would get the free health care that includes dental and all health benefits for our children. The only thing we get is our monthly disability check and health care for the service connected disabilities we got rated for.
The VA health care is great. You can get health care for anything at the VA hospital. It's just that you will have to pay the copayment (which isn't much) if you are less that %100 and not service connected for. Dental was NEVER meant for those who are not %100 disabled.
Difference between your disability (service connected) and SABO members is SABO is COMBAT related. If you are 305 or more disabled due to combat, you get the "medical retirement and entitles a veteran to monthly disability benefits for the rest of the veteran's life, to free health care for the veteran and his or her spouse for life, and to free health care for their minor children"
I served in Viet-Nam, 1967-68, I have PTSD, Sleep apnea / Memory Lost. I also, had Pro state Cancer, which was removed in 2001 and left me with erectile Dysfunction. Are there any Veterans who have information about the PTSD Law suite
I was thrown to TDRL on April 2013, and was told that I will be reevaluated in 6 months, unfortunately I haven't heard from the Army or VA, my shit started to boil up about 30 days ago, I knew I needed my medications really bad thanks to the VA stupid medical system I am waiting 60+ days in order to see a doctor so I can get back on my medications. My other option is I have to see non VA provider which I didn't even know I could, yeah tomorrow, I have to see him tomorrow and I need my meds right away! the only people who know how messed up I'm are my kids and wife because the only place I go is Lowes' hardware store it takes my stress off of me, I start a project and stop when I'm stressed and start another one! waste of thousands of dollars? Nobody cares I guess and fock the VA
I am not active military, however I was the spouse of active Navy for 15 years. At that time, I was very proud of our military. Since then, our son joined the Army at 19 (I bid goodbye to my son who was a that time proud and unbroken- so to speak). Straight out of boot camp he was assigned to funerals until he was assigned to a unit. He is currently with 101st Airborne Infantry (this took several months). Shortly after his assignment, they went to Afghanistan for approximately 10 months . He took lives, protected many in his unit including his own.
He returned from Afghanistan August of 2013. Went through a mandatory 7 day class and then could come home (was diagnosed with PTSD). On 911 he went out to with hometown friends, he unfortunately got a DUI on same evening. To make a long story short, he is now being Chaptered out of the Army with a General. Instead of the Military dealing with the issue at hand they seem to just be dismissing so many of our brave men after they used them for what they needed, short of their contract which saves the government on veteran benefits. I could be wrong but my heart goes out to all of you who served and were put into situations that many 'grown' men would not have done or could not fathom experiencing. I hope all of you fight hard and get what you deserve AND some! Don't give up! Thank you and your families.
PTSD never being addressed, although recognized, alcohol being recognized as a means to 'get past' the past so to speak.
From what I have witnessed, the Army tells these young men/brave soldiers to be tough, and suck it up. The men are don't push their PTSD issues for fear of what will come back on them. In fact they just sit back and 'let' the Army do what they feel they need to do as they feel they 'deserve' what is given to them.
I have talked with several young men from his unit. They
My previous comment was apparently to long. Thank you to all you brave men and fight what is rightfully yours. You have been through, seen things and acted on situations most 'grown' men could not have even fathomed to do. I have noticed you all initially took what was given to you in part because you were taught not to 'argue' with your command and in part because you felt you needed to be punished. Do not feel this way. You are all AWSOME! Fight - and don't give up.
for good writing is the important to attract the people to pay a visit the website, so its is intersting
I was thrown out with 10% disability and given severance pay. Then when i got disability from Va they have tAKEN back all severance and still doing it. I was not given a psych evaluation for the medboard and they ignored cervical injury thaT THEY had evidence available and did not retire me or give me at least 30%. I did 17 and plus years of military honorable service. Most of my service was done as legal resident not even an american citizen. I then became one to finish my careeer based on reagan policy and still got sent to the Street and lost my credit, bankruptcy house etc.Iam 100% disbaled and still today am fighting back to get my military service retirement which ahs been denied over and over and cant even get care at VA.

Employees at Racks and Tails restaurant not being paid
FORT MYERS - Employees at a Fort Myers restaurant are fired up, claiming the owners have refused to pay them for over a month. Now they want to know why so they turned to Four in your Corner's Mike Mason for help.
16 year old Daniel Rust was excited to land his first job at Racks and Tails, a restaurant and bar on Colonial Avenue in Fort Myers.
Last month he began working for minimum wage which was just enough to pay for his car and insurance. But Rust says after working for about a month he didn't make a dime.
Daniel Rust: "I think they're probably just going broke and have no way to pay us and they're stalling."
Rust claims the owners of Racks and Tails refused to pay him and other employees for at least a month.
Instead of getting a paycheck they say they're getting excuses instead.
Daniel Rust: "Checks were lost at a Starbucks, one of the owners spent $10 thousand dollars in a place he shouldn't have, the I-9's weren't filed on time, the W-4's aren't properly filed."
Rust's mother told her son to stop going to work until the owners pay up.
Abby Rust: "I'd really like the people who eat there to know that the employees who are serving them are not being paid."
Rust kept the time slips of the hours he worked and estimates he's owed $569 dollars. We spoke with another former employee who says she's also waiting to get paid.
Former employee: "I also am owed a big chunk of money."
So we wanted to know why a seemingly successful restaurant wasn't paying its employees. We went to Racks and Tails and spoke with two of the managers. They blame the mistake on their accountant and say that accountant was recently fired.
They also claim the problems are now being addressed and employees will get their checks soon.
Rust hopes that's true and says since working at Racks and Tails he's only managed to rack up the bills.
Daniel Rust: "You can't run a legitimate business without paying your employees."
The managers tell us there are about ten employees who haven't been paid. They promised us they will give them their checks this Friday after 5pm. We'll follow up and let you know what happens.

Globally Enriched J.D.
Global Distribution courses
UDM law students add a global emphasis to their education by taking any one or more of our wide-ranging courses offering exposure to another legal system. We consider a broader perspective to be important enough to require students take at least one course from the list below:
french scholar program
Our courses in Introduction to French Law and European Community Law are taught by our resident scholar from the Universite d'Auvergne in Clermont Ferrand, France. For nearly 30 years UDM has had an exchange program in which we send a graduate to teach topics in U.S. Law and we receive a graduate from Clermont Ferrand. One graduating senior from UDM is selected each year for this one year opportunity. Fluency in French is preferred but not required.
courses in the dual j.d. program
Another unique program at UDM is our Canadian and American Dual J.D. program with the University of Windsor. Regular J.D. students are able to enroll in several of the courses with our Dual degree students that provides a comparative look at U.S. and Canadian law.
They may enroll in Cross Border Sales and Financing Transactions, which also satisfies the global distribution requirement.
In addition, Business Organizations and Evidence are offered at UDM as part of the Dual J.D. program. They are hybrid in the sense that they are team taught by American and Canadian professors. The U.S. content is offered in a "core course" taught by a UDM professor, and the Canadian content is offered in a 'module" that is attached to the core course and taught by a faculty member from the University of Windsor. Single degree students may enroll in the core course, where the vast majority of the students will be from the Dual J.D. program. Some content will compare U.S. and Canadian law and the single degree students can audit the Canadian law module.
international opportunities program
In support of our commitment to better prepare students to practice in a global legal community, UDM is proud to offer its International Opportunities Program (IOP). Envisioned as a meaningful way to encourage and enable students to participate in a summer study-abroad program, the IOP awards eligible UDM students with a $1,000 loan, which is then forgiven after the student successfully completes the study-abroad program and returns to UDM for the following fall term. Since financial aid is normally available for program tuition, this loan is intended to defray travel and accommodation expenses related to such study.
Students who seek the IOP loan must enroll in one of more than 20 approved study-abroad programs. These rigorous programs span the globe (i.e., Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America) and will expose students to legal systems other than the United States.

Not River Phoenix in front of the Dragonfly or the city that I don't ever plan on going to.. This post is a celebration of a new computer. The old iMac is dead, sadly, and it'll be a minute before things are normalized, but this, my first posting in several months, is the first step.
That's Satin Slipper and the incomplete dragon during practice.
Interior scene for the Avenuers (big finish).
I learned a lot with this image. We spent a solid 2 weeks with extra labor on this one. It barely looks it. My favorite is the india ink sign.. and the guy on the human powered thingiedoo.
There's 127 guys that I painted. Steve painted the bodies for 8 of em and Drew obsessed over the terrain. Too much detail for a "20 yard stare".
The Taj M'hawl. I wish I could say this just flew together, but I struggled with the colors in the Taj for a while (it's white of course). Drew painted the sky. He's really good at skies (even though I disapprove of his color choices). We fought about the shape of the bushes. Nobody saw them. There was a huge prop in front of this scene. You can't even see William Penn on top of the main dome.
I didn't get pictures of anything. Drew took these but he missed a couple of things. Oh well.
This year I plan on recording my process better.
It sure is nice having a new computer.

I started my website out using the form mail program at Matt's script archive, but quickly started to get a lot of automated spam. I think the script was also being used to generate spam to other people on the net too.
Now I am using more secure TFmail. But I still periodically get automated spam to my inbox, but fortunately my searches in /var/log/maillog don't show the application sending spam to anyone else.
I contacted the TFmail guys and they say it's normal. TFmail is secure, and the spammers will soon get tired when they realize they can't hack the app any more than doing random posts to the URL.
So the question is. Does anyone know of a package as safe as TFmail says they are, that also has come kind of image verification feature?
I'm tired of "cheap tickets" and "low cost prescriptions".
Try FormMailer it's PHP based and uses the GD libraries to generate a random image.
It uses a customizable template, but I haven't been able to figure out how to eliminate the gray box around the email form.
Works very well for me.

CHEEKTOWAGA, NY - Family members are looking for an 81-year-old Cheektowaga man who has been missing since Tuesday.
Pasquale DeNora was last seen at JFK Airport in New York City Tuesday night, when he was supposed to catch a connecting flight to Buffalo. He was returning from a trip to his birthplace in Italy.
The man's son, Nick DeNora of Amherst, tells 2 On Your Side that it's not known why his father missed the flight to Buffalo. He said his father has mild vascular dementia but is capable of looking after himself. He was supposed to have a wheelchair escort between flights, but for some reason that didn't happen. His father is seen walking with his carry-on luggage in security camera video from terminal 4 of JFK Airport, DeNora says.
He is described as 5' 8" tall, about 200 pounds, with hazel eyes and white hair. An American citizen, he speaks fluent English with an Italian accent. He was wearing a black, hip-length raincoat with a white lining, blue jeans and brown shoes, and carrying a sling bag with one strap.
A spokesperson for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey confirms that an investigation is underway. Authorities in the New York City area and Western New York have been notified.
Anyone with information about this missing person is asked to contact Nick DeNora at (716) 319-0073.

YIELD: Makes 4 servings
IngredientsBalsamic shallot vinaigrette
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons minced shallots
- 2 8-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 8-ounce romaine hearts, washed, dried, and torn into bite-sized pieces
- 2 large ripe tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 2 ripe avocados, pitted, peeled, and diced
- 8 strips turkey bacon, cooked and coarsely chopped
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup (4 ounces) crumbled reduced-fat blue cheese
1 To make the vinaigrette, combine the vinegar, salt, and pepper in a blender. With the machine running, gradually add the oil. Add the shallots and pulse briefly to combine. Pour into a serving bowl and set aside.
2 Pound each chicken breast half between 2 heavy duty plastic bags with a flat meat pounder to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Season with the salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning halfway through cooking, until golden brown on both sides, about 6 minutes. Add ¼ cup water, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cover. Simmer until the chicken feels firm when pressed in the center, about 8 minutes. Uncover, increase the heat to high, and cook until the liquid is evaporated and the chicken is sizzling, about 1 minute. Transfer chicken to a carving board and let cool. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
3 Spread the lettuce on a large platter. Top with the chicken, tomatoes, avocados, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, and blue cheese arranged in rows. Serve immediately, with the vinaigrette passed on the side.

Cardiac Services
We are very proud to say the Gates Vascular Institute is ranked in the top 2% in the nation for cardiac surgery by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons.
We're proud of our top 2% ranking—and thankful to our team for making us an institution where incredible talent, unmatched commitment and life-saving technology come together for the best cardiac surgery.
The dedicated heart specialists at Buffalo General Medical Center and the Gates Vascular Institute offer a full complement of advanced cardiac services to help patients regain their health to the greatest extent possible. Knowledgeable staffs will explain the treatment options available and provide advice throughout diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation.
The most state-of-the-art technology and innovative diagnostic and treatment options are utilized in the care of patients. The Gates Vascular Institute and Buffalo General Medical Center cardiac teams are actively involved in many national clinical trials and work tirelessly to discover new and better ways to treat the heart and bring those discoveries to patients.
In fact, Buffalo General Medical Center is the first and only facility in Western New York to perform a new, lifesaving option for cardiac patients who had previously been deemed inoperable.
Recently approved by the FDA, the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive procedure in which an artificial aortic heart valve is attached to a wire frame and guided through the femoral artery by catheter to the heart. Once in place, the wire frame enlarges, which allows the new valve to pump the blood appropriately. To date, the TAVR procedure has reaped excellent outcomes and extended the lives of patients who had previously faced a very limited life expectancy.

MINNEAPOLIS - The Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx have confirmed that former Lynx COO Conrad Smith passed away Wednesday night after an extended battle with brain cancer.
He is survived by his wife and three children.
Smith was elevated to top leader of the Lynx's business operation in 2008. In his position he was responsible for overseeing Lynx ticket sales, corporate sponsorships, marketing, advertising, public relations and other business segments.
But more importantly, Smith served as a community ambassador, driving marketing and communications needs for the organization, and served as the team liaison to the league on marketing and business matters.
Smith had more than a quarter-century of professional sports experience, including more than a decade with the Minnesota Timberwolves. During that time, Smith was Vice President of Corporate Sales and Services and most recently, served as the team's Vice President of Business Development, working with the team's premier sponsors such as Verizon, Best Buy, Pepsi and Target.
A graduate of Emerson College in Boston, Smith was a fixture on the Minnesota sports scene. Prior to joining the Wolves, he spent four years as the Director of Corporate Sales for Major League Baseball's Minnesota Twins. Prior to that, Smith held a similar position with the National Hockey League's Minnesota North Stars.

The Comfort of a Sweatshirt in a Classic Cardigan Style for Men
Men's Cardigan Sweatshirt 1 1
FAITHFUL AS AN OLD FRIEND This order brings my total of "sweatshirt-material cardigans" to four, and I shall probably buy a few more! These are splendid sweaters-- the fabic is very warm, as well as non-binding & non-restricting. I'm particularly pleased with the pockets---they are a good size for those incidentals one always ends up carrying. Believe me, I've had cardigans with unusable postage-stamp-sized pockets, constantly regretting having wasting my money---the Vermont Country Store Sweatshirt Cardigans can comfortably and securely hold a man's wallet, if need be! About the only "Improvement" I could think of would be offering another cardigan, using a slightly heavier fleece sweatshirt fabric. For evenings & nights when the cold winds howl, a slightly thicker cardigan would be just the trick! I particularly like these as "under-jacket-wear;" worn over a smooth-fabric medium-weight turtleneck; under a heavy sportcoat. I have several "Fire-Hose Canvas" sportcoats; the heavy cotton jacket, over a sweatshirt cardigan, atop a good turtleneck, has the warmth of most decent winter car-coats, but with much more style! I'm quite sure these will last well, too, for the one I bought when they were first listed in the catalogue, (it must have been 4-6 years ago) looks nearly as nice as the ones bought last month! Unlike knit-fabric cardigans, these don't seem inclined to doing stretching-out. I think the total "maintenance" I've needed to do was re-anchoring a button! That's why I said they were as "Faithful as an Old Friend:" If I'm chilly, I know I can put on one of these cardigans & quickly be warm and comfy! I also wear a cardigan on particularly cold nights, over a heavy long-sleeved T-shirt, with my OTHER old-time Vermont stand-by: A t-shirt-material "night-cap!" Warm As Toast! Fred November 2, 2012

POTSDAM Lets hear it for the boys.
Giving a taste of whats to come, the visiting American Boychoir put on a performance for students and community members Friday afternoon in SUNY Potsdams Hosmer Hall.
Students from the American Boychoir School in Princeton, N.J., are visiting as a part of the colleges second annual Lougheed Festival of the Arts.
During a residency which started Wednesday and will conclude with the performance of Benjamin Brittens War Requiem tonight, the 49-member choir received several standing ovations Friday afternoon as it shared some of what it has learned here.
SUNY Potsdam spokeswoman Alexandra M. Jacobs said while the boys were visiting, they participated in workshops with professors from SUNY Potsdams Crane School of Music, Clarkson and other universities.
They have been working on lessons like voice technique with Crane professors, Ms. Jacobs said. So they are getting some enriching programming while they are here.
The boys are also major performers in Brittens monumental work, War Requiem.
They have been working on their part with visiting conductor Christof Perick, visiting soloists, the Crane Chorus and the Crane Symphony Orchestra.
So for our students who are in the orchestra and the chorus it is an experience, Ms. Jacobs said. They are performing a work that you can see on major stages around the world and it allows them the chance to work with a major conductor.
Crane School Dean Michael R. Sitton said the focal point of the American Boychoirs visit is its performance in Brittens work; however, its been a bonus for the school to have the boys participating in workshops with students.
They have had some presentations given to them because they are in school themselves, Mr. Sitton said. So they are learning new things. So this has really been a wonderful, multifaceted experience for both our students and for the boychoir.
American Boychoir Director Fernando Malvar-Ruiz even participated in a workshop on working with changing voices, Mr. Sitton said, as Crane students will become teachers who work with children whose voices will change.
So those are a couple of the examples that they have done that I have had the opportunity to observe a little bit, Mr. Sitton said. Showing this very wide range of style and sound, he offered an example to our students that there is a wide variety of what children can do on in educational setting.
The choirs entire visit has been supported by donations.
Former American Boychoir member Chester W. Douglas and his wife Joy A., a 1954 alumni of Crane, have been donors to the program that allowed the American Boychoir to participate in the residency at the campus.
Mrs. Douglas said she took great pride in the fact that her husband took as much an interest in the school and the program to contribute.
We really met through choral music and Chet has always respected where I went to school and said he wanted to do something for the school, Mrs. Douglas said. I appreciate the fact that he has joined me in doing that.
The choral art is very, very strong historically in the Crane School, Mr. Douglas said. Joy, when she was here as a student, sang with Robert Shaw, who came every year.
The American Boychoir will be participating in Benjamin Brittens War Requiem from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. today at Hosmer Hall.
The concert is free and open to the public.

|Another Boone Business Struck by Vehicle
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 01 July 2013 13:01
Another Boone business suffered a shattered door, but at least this time, there was no break-in intended. The KFC on Blowing Rock Road was struck just after 9 this morning by a Toyota Rav4 that shattered one side of the west-facing door, and knocked both the doors there out of their frame.
Boone Police were called to take a report on the damage, but no injuries resulted from the crash.

Now that the Bisons' season is over, the Mets added eight players to the active big league roster two over the weekend (Collin McHugh and Mike Nickeas), and six more after Monday's game who fall into three classes: those guys who have already seen big league time in 2012 (Jordany Valdespin, Elvin Ramirez), those who needed to be added to the 40-man roster (OF Fred Lewis and LHP Justin Hampson) and those who will either make their MLB or 2012 debut in the coming days (RHP Jenrry Mejia and RHP Jeurys Familia). Mejia and Familia will get their own post to follow.
Collin McHugh, who made his second big league start on Labor Day Monday, has already made his introduction to the Mets. C Mike Nickeas and his .168/.241/.228 line in 42 games in the big leagues is also back. For what it's worth, Nickeas hit .364/.405/.500 in 22 games in AAA this year with six walks and nine strikeouts. There's a song about that.
The 40-Man Roster Additions
The Mets added two players to the team's 40-man roster: OF Fred Lewis and LHP Justin Hampson. The 29-year old Lewis was the Bisons' team MVP after the Mets signed him in late April. He hit .294/.379/.482 in 108 games with 46 extra-base hits, 57 walks and 113 strikeouts overall. Lewis is fast; he was 25 of 33 stealing bases in Buffalo this year, but is limited to a corner defensively. Also, he's limited because he cannot hit lefthanders. He hit .217/.291/.302 versus lefties in 117 PA this year in AAA while bashing righties at a .319/.408/.543 rate in 360 PA. These numbers are consistent with Lewis' MLB track record, where he is a .267/.345/.406 batter in 1738 PA with a .780 OPS against righties and a .622 oPS against lefties as part of a .233/.311/.312. What's he doing in the big leagues now? Great question. I'd suggest that it's most a reward for a strong 2012. He's a limited enough outfielder that he is not likely to be any kind of solution for the Mets in 2013 or beyond for a team that already has the younger, and under control Kirk Nieuwenhuis, Mike Baxter and Lucas Duda.
The 32-year old Hampson had a nice year out of the Bisons' bullpen: 2.33 ERA, 65.2 IP, 22 BB, 5 HR. Before the Mets called him up earlier this year, he had not thrown a big league pitch since 2008. He'd been through shoulder surgery and a year's tenure with the independent Long Island Ducks of the Atlantic League in 2010. For what it's worth, Hampson had a reverse platoon split in AAA this year when lefties hit .289/.346/.433 in 109 PA compared to righties who hit .227/.287/.292 in 168 PA. This was not the case in his previous big league work when he had a "normal" platoon split when lefties hada .629 OPS while righties had a .778 OPS against him. Perhaps some of his success against right-handers has to do with an increased reliance on his cutter which he threw 37% of the time in 2007, 50% of the time in 2008 and 64% of the timefa (21 of 33 MLB and SSS warning!) in 2012. Hampson does not throw hard – he lives in the upper eighties with his fastball. He's an interesting addition to the 40-man roster now for a bullpen that has the second-worst ERA in baseball (4.77) in 2012.
The 2012 Returnees
RHP Elvin Ramirez just was not MLB ready his first two times around in June and August: 12.1 IP, 15 H, 10 ER, 11 BB, 10 K – 7.30 ERA. Here's the bad news, his control is still not ready. In 14.1 IP over 12 appearances in Buffalo, he's walked 11 batters while fanning 14. He throws hard. That's good. He can't control it. That's not.
2B/CF/LF Jordany Valdespin played in four games for AAA Buffalo since his return from New York, all at second. At the dish, he was 4-for-16 with three walks and three strikeouts. He's the same guy who has a .282 MLB on-base percentage, just with four more games at second base.

Gumby: The Movie
Animation, Family
Good old lovable Gumby, that odd green shape changer with a perpetual look of wonder, has been delighting children and adults with his fantastical adventures on television for over 40 years. Now he and his pliable pals, Pokey, Pickle, and Goo embark upon their greatest adventure: a feature film of their own. Unlike other more contemporary animated offerings such as Toy Story, which offer fast-paced, at times hip and sophisticated, stories Gumby remains true to his innocent, 1950s roots. The adventure begins when the nefarious Blockheads steal Lowbelly, Gumby's beloved dog, to harvest the valuable pearl drops he makes whenever he cries. To keep Gumby from finding out, they replace Lowbelly with a robot dog. This works and so they make doubles for Gumby and all his pals causing all sorts of fun and confusion when the heroes find out and begin fighting their twins inside a variety of storybooks.~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

WADDINGTON One lucky resident will have an opportunity to pick Waddingtons Homecoming theme this year.
Until March 27, residents can submit their suggestions for this years theme by text, by email or in person to Homecoming chairwoman Shelly L. Shirley.
We all sat around trying to come up with a theme, Ms. Shirley said Tuesday. We thought the Roaring 20s or something to do with the Bassmaster Elite Tournament, but in the end we decided it would be more fun to do a contest to see what other people can come up with.
Entry forms were submitted to Madrid-Waddington Central School earlier this month.
The winning entrant will receive a large pizza and soda from Kunoco Food Mart, Waddington.
Ms. Shirley said plans for this years Homecoming are still a work-in-progress.
We plan on having the usual events lip syncing and diaper derby, and fireworksn but wed like to throw something new in for the visitors, she said.
Waddingtons Homecoming is scheduled for Aug. 2, 3, and 4, one week before the Bassmaster Elite Tournament: St. Lawrence River Showdown.
The town expects to see an influx of anglers, fans and their families before the tournament begins
The biggest issue is food vendors, she said. We usually have fried bread dough and a chicken dinner, but obviously this time we are going to have to feed a lot more people. If anyone is interested, we would really like them to contact us.
To submit an idea for Waddingtons Homecoming or sign up as a vendor, contact Ms. Shirley at firstname.lastname@example.com or 528-6938.

Video shows 2-year-old 'bedtime bandit' breaking into sister's room
Toddler videotaped picking lock, stealing toys
A 2-year-old boy is getting worldwide attention after video captured him picking a lock to his sister's bedroom and stealing her toys.
The video was uploaded to YouTube on Sunday by the child's mother, Joann Moser, who calls her son the "bedtime bandit."
The video appears to be taken at nighttime and shows the toddler sneaking out of his bedroom in his pajamas and making his way to his sister's room.
The 2-year-old tries to open the bedroom door, but it's locked.
According to the video's description, the toddler uses fingernail clippers to pick the lock on the door.
The boy goes inside the room and moments later he is seen walking out with a stuffed animal.
Since being uploaded on YouTube last week, the video has received more than 354,000 views.

After much recent research, we've concluded that most young actresses seem to fall into one of two style camps: safe or sloppy. Fortunately, there are a few refreshing alternatives to this rule, like today's subject-the perpetually polished Emma Roberts! She's been dazzling us for ages, ever since she turned up at a Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party wearing a polka-dotted D&G dress and the perfect pair of black patent pumps. As it turns out, the endearing ensemble was just a sign of things to come! Since then, Roberts has showcased an endless line of splendid red carpet getups and equally inspiring daywear choices. In addition to her stellar style, Roberts' acting career is blooming, too: she is the leading lady in this month's Hotel for Dogs and the upcoming Wild Child. All things considered, Roberts is definitely prime Girl of the Month material!
WhoWhatWear.com regulars will recall Miss Roberts from a handful of our daily stories (such as What They Wore: NY Fashion Week and What Was She Wearing: Answers!), but we purposefully set aside a few of her best ensembles for today! With the helping hands of the styling duo, MAUDE-otherwise known as Emily Current and Merritt Elliott-Roberts constantly dresses to perfection in colorful, fresh, and age-appropriate pieces.
One of the things we appreciate most about Roberts is her enthusiasm for trying lots of different looks. She can be playful, like in the Ruffian Graffiti Dress ($5495, 310.659.5785) and Current/Elliott Shrunken JJ Jean Jacket ($239) she wore to Intermix's 15th Anniversary Event in New York City, but is just as capable at sporting more proper attire. A case in point is the prim Couture Couture Silk Chiffon Ruffle Blouse ($800, 212.727.8029) and Embroidered Skirt ($1500, 212.727.8029) worn with Juicy Couture Mariska Shoes($194, 212.727.8029) she displayed while at the Ritz Carlton last year.
Roberts also pulls off casual hipster look with flying colors, as she demonstrated at the Sundance Film Festival Stein Eriksen's Lounge in Park City by modeling a Ron Herman shirt, JBrand Ankle Skinny Jeans($159), Stuart Weitzman Over-The-Knee Flat Boots ($535), Phoebe Price Headband ($130, 310.550.1341), and skull scarf. And last, but not least, Roberts even does menswear well! She delighted us when she borrowed from the boys and turned up at her Hotel for Dogs premiere in a Helmut Lang Racerback Top ($80) and Cotton Tuxedo Jacket ($565, 323.951.0994), worn with Chloe Silk Shorts ($825, 800.558.1855). (Roberts' splurge of the season would be "everything from Chloe's Spring 09 Collection!") The ensemble was an unexpected and sophisticated departure from what her peers would wear and a wonderful wardrobe selection.
So just how does our spotlighted starlet conceive her style? For starters, we'd say all of her work-related traveling is definitely an influential factor to her taste. When on location in various cities, Roberts' favorite places to shop are Intermix in New York, Madison in LA, and Topshop in London. On top of that, she is "inspired by Sienna Miller's personal style, old movies, and just flipping through magazines." Roberts picks up her preferred newsstand material-Nylon, Teen Vogue, British ELLE, Australian Bazaar, and French Vogue-whenever she gets a chance. Most importantly, Roberts dresses according to her own golden rule: "Whatever you feel confident and comfortable in is what you should wear!" Wise words indeed.-Jessica Amento

|January Home Sales: Best Since 2008
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 14 February 2013 06:31
Although January is traditionally a slow month for local real estate sales, the 62 realtor-assisted sales in the High Country in January—worth $14.98 million—is the most home sales to start a new year since 2008. That's according to the latest monthly Real Estate Report by the High Country Association of Realtors.
January of last year just 55 properties sold for $14.2 million. Laurie Phillips, executive officer of High Country Association of Realtors, said "This winter started off slow but the past month made up for the late start with snows that made the ski slopes very happy." And she said, "January sales are really a reflection of November and December activity since it normally takes one to two months for a property to close after it goes under contract." The median sold price for January was $222,500, an 11-month high— also higher than the median sold prices recorded in January 2012 at $215,000 and 2011 at $220,000. But it was below the marks set the three previous pre-recession Januarys of 2009-10, during which the median sold price for the month never dropped below $230,000. And it appears the improvement is continuing, according to Phillips, who said "The High Country MLS is currently showing approximately 135 single-family homes under contract, so that's very encouraging." Housing inventory also increased, with 247 new listings added to the MLS—a five-month high. Low mortgage rates are helping with the numbers, according to realtors and bankers alike.

Latest on OF market: Bourn still available, Swisher visiting teams
Last night, Sandy Alderson said he intends to address the team's needs in the outfield before the start of Spring Training. Here's the latest on the outfield market:
- The Dodgers are considering trading Andre Ethier (NY Daily News), and if they do, they could look to sign Michael Bourn (FOX Sports).
- The Indians met with Nick Swisher in Cleveland today, and while he has a standing offer with them, he will be visiting with other teams (MLB.com).
- Executives from around the game believe the Diamondbacks will eventually trade Justin Upton, even though GM Kevin Towers said it was unlikely a deal would be reached (FOX Sports).
- The Marlins are interested in Mark Trumbo, although it's unlikely the Angels will move him (ESPN).
- The Marlins are not interested in acquiring Peter Bourjos (Miami Herald).
- The Phillies are showing interest in signing Cody Ross and trading for Vernon Wells (CBS Sports).
Michael Baron, ContributorA lot of people have asked me on Twitter if there is any chance the Mets will sign Bourn. Even on a short-term deal, it's very unlikely the Mets go down this road.
Ideally, yes, Bourn is a fit and he would give the Mets outfield some instant credibility. He does strike out a lot, but he's become an excellent top of the order catalyst as an outstanding base stealer with triples speed. The Mets don't have much of that, and it's something they have desperately needed since both Jose Reyes and Angel Pagan departed after 2011. But, a) he's left-handed and the Mets need right-handed outfielders, b) they need power in the outfield, c) he's a Scott Boras client, and there's no doubt he will try and get someone to overpay for Bourn, and d) he received a qualifying offer from the Braves, and so the team Bourn signs with will have to surrender their first round pick in the 2013 draft. On top of that, Bourn depends on his legs to be successful, and it remains to be seen how quickly those skills diminish in the coming seasons.

On Tuesday the Beloit College Swimming & Diving team joined thousands of athletes across the country in jumping into the pool in support of Carleton College's Ted Mullin "Leave it in the Pool Hour of Power" Relay. Over the first six years of this nationwide—and worldwide—event, participants raised over $330,000 to support research at the University of Chicago into the causes and treatment of sarcoma, a rare soft-tissue cancer, in young people.
First started to honor former Carleton swimmer Ted Mullin, who passed away in the fall of 2006 from sarcoma, the Ted Mullin "Hour of Power" Relay has grown from 15 teams in its first year to 160 teams in 2011 with 8,000 participating athletes who joined forces to honor all those who are fighting against or have lost the battle to cancer.
Last year's event included 107 college and university programs representing 39 conferences across NCAA Division I, II and III, and Independents, along with 46 high-school and club teams. This year's numbers are on pace to match and possibly exceed last year's totals. All those athletes will hit the pool with a shared goal—to increase awareness about sarcoma and raise money for the Ted Mullin Fund for Pediatric Sarcoma Research at the Comer Children's Hospital at the University of Chicago.
2012 Ted Mullin "Hour of Power" Relay registrations to date:
Total Registered Teams: 145
Colleges and Universities: 92
High School and Club Teams: 49
International Teams: 4
New Teams: 33
Estimated Athletes: over 7,000

The PVH Kids Club will meet at 2 p.m. Feb. 24 at Patton Veterinary Hospital, 425 E. Broadway, Red Lion. The goal of the club is to teach children to be responsible pet parents. Kids from all over the county are welcome.
At this month's meeting, they'll get a behind-the scenes look at the veterinary hospital. They'll see the surgery room and learn how dogs and cats get their teeth cleaned and whether pets get the same medications as humans. They'll also find out what a dog's heart sounds like.
Shown here are photos from the October PVH Kids Club meeting, when the children learned about reptiles. Above, Tabitha Clark talks to club members about her pet gecko. At left, Jeremy, owner of Pets 'N' You of Red Lion, talks about monitors. And below, Julie Good's iguana, Olive, shows some style with a bright bandana.

Kristin Cavallari's baby bump is ready for its closeup!
The former star of "The Hills" and "Laguna Beach" flaunts her growing belly in the new issue of Glamoholic -- where she opens up about her pregnancy and wanting to have more kids.
"I am actually enjoying it, which may sound crazy to some women but I've had a really easy pregnancy," Cavallari says about carrying her first child. "The first couple of months I was tired but I didn't have any morning sickness. Which, I'll take being tired any day over throwing up."
While the 25-year-old says she didn't expect to have a kid before the age of 30, she says she and fiance Jay Cutler are already thinking about Baby #2.
"We're talking about the possibility of having another kid right away and then getting married so we can have 2 kids close in age," she says.
"We want 4 kids, so we're thinking maybe have one more, then get married, then have two more but we'll see, it all depends on how the first one goes."
Check out more photos from the Glamoholic shoot here, plus read her full interview.
